Certainly, the numbers were not vintage Lofton. The former Tennessee basketball player suffered notable declines in his scoring average, his field-goal percentage and his 3-point percentage. Even so, what we got each time he took the court was the very essence of Chris Lofton – his courage, his dedication, his mental and physical toughness. He gave fans everything he had ... except his awful little secret.
Low-key and soft-spoken by nature, Lofton's approach always has been to let his play do his talking. That's why it isn't surprising that he never talked about his cancer. Heck, he was reluctant to talk about his performances. After scoring a career-high 35 points vs. Texas on Dec. 23, 2006, he was in the process of slipping out of Thompson-Boling Arena when he was literally "apprehended" and forced to visit the media room for a few minutes of post-game interviews.
Lofton's refusal to mention his cancer battle was perfectly in line with his personality. You can sum up his approach to basketball in four words: No complaints. No excuses.
Physically drained by surgery and four weeks of offseason radiation treatments, he struggled throughout most of the 2007-08 season. He never had been explosive, but now he seemed to have lost a step of quickness on his drives to the basket. He seemed to have lost some elevation on his jump shot, too. And he seemed to have lost some of his stamina.
As his scoring average and minutes went down, one question increasingly came up: What's wrong with Chris Lofton?
He never told us. True to form, he suffered in silence, fighting a quiet battle against an insidious disease. He gave his all every time he took the floor, even though his energy level was diminished. He exhibited no frustration, even though he could not play up to his previous level. He dismissed the repeated questions about his health and somehow managed to ignore the occasional criticism of his play.
A lesser man would've lost his poise and broken his silence. He would've snapped at some point and grumbled, "I've been battling cancer, OK? That's why I can't play as well as I did before. Are you happy now?"
To his credit, Chris Lofton never snapped. True to his nature, he kept his mouth shut and his composure intact. In the end, he managed to defeat an opponent far more imposing than any he ever encountered on a basketball court.
Through it all, he competed with dignity and class. The numbers he compiled might not suggest he was an All-American but the character he displayed on a daily basis was All-American in a far deeper sense.
By giving everything he had, without complaint, even as his world seemed to be crumbling all around him, Chris Lofton quietly demonstrated what being a college basketball player is all about.
He didn't just respect the game. He honored it.
And, in doing so, he showed us the real Chris Lofton.

"The Duggars may think they can afford an unlimited number of children, but the planet cannot"
Penny Althaus Albany, Calif.
While Jim Bob and Michelle are good parents, I question their apparent focus on having more children while their preemie Josie is still fighting for her life. As the father of two small kids, I know how much love and attention each child needs and deserves. The Duggars should consider the kids they have now instead of looking ahead to when they can have the next one.
Stephen Lynch
Charlotte, N.C.
Have the Duggars stopped to think that maybe Josie's struggles are God's way of saying "Enough already!"? Their children are being raised by their siblings, not their parents.
Cindy Stewart
Hoover, Ala.
I have long wondered why our society seems to glamorize people who have a ridiculous number of children. There's no reason to bring so many kids into the world—it is selfish and irresponsible.
Anissa Stone Berger
Marlboro, N.J.
The Duggars are financially capable of caring for all their offspring and do not ask for government assistance. Their children are healthy and happy. Nineteen kids may not be most people's cup of tea, but it's their decision, not ours. We should leave them alone and let them raise and enjoy their family.
Judy Katuls
Grand Terrace, Calif.
I admire Jenny Sanford for moving forward in such a positive manner, not only for herself but for her children. Her pain and heartbreak struck a familiar chord for me. Like Mark Sanford, my husband cheated with a woman he called his "soulmate." He left us to try to be with her. I hope Jenny stays strong and knows that there are better things in life to come.

How did Heidi Montag expect her mother to react to her having 10 surgical procedures in one day? All mothers think of their children as beautiful and perfect just the way they are. Making so many changes to her appearance was like telling her mother that she had created an inferior child. Heidi's mom may also be feeling like she is to blame for her daughter's low self-esteem. Some day Heidi Montag will wake up and realize that a mother's love is unconditional.
Heidi Pitard
Berlin, Mass.
Thank you for the charming photo of Prince Harry visiting the little boy at the hospital in Barbados. So many magazines play up Harry's bad boy image that people may fail to see that deep down, this young man has a very big heart.
Kerry Sparks
Houston, Texas
Readers voiced little sympathy for Andrew Young, the former aide to John Edwards who agreed to pose as the father of Edwards's love child in 2007, then published his tell-all book The Politician in January. M.G. Sampson of Severn, Md., writes, "For Mr. Young to profit off the pain he helped inflict with his lies is symptomatic of what's wrong with our country today." Liza Lee of Fond du Lac, Wis., says, "Greed is fool's gold, Mr. Young. And you dare to whine that Edwards wasn't loyal?" Last month Young complied with a North Carolina judge's order and turned over a tape allegedly showing Edwards engaged in a sexual encounter with his mistress Rielle Hunter.
Our review of The Wife's Tale in our Feb. 22 issue included a photo of a woman who is not the author of that book, Lori Lansens. The woman pictured was Susan A. Clancy, Ph.D., who wrote The Trauma Myth, which was reviewed on the same page. We regret this error.

I have a number of cars and was looking to sell this particular car in the easiest manner possible, without the hassle of advertising and all the problems that can entail.

SALEM - New Year's Eve may be three months away, but the Salem group putting together the 9th annual alcohol-free, family-oriented community celebration is looking for help now to cover the costs.
David Schwartz, one of the coordinators for New Year's Eve Salem, said they mailed out about 700 letters this weekend to past supporters and potential supporters, both individuals and businesses in the Salem area, to solicit tax-deductible donations.
"We're focusing on getting the ball rolling. We were very successful last year in raising funds. We count on the locals to pull us through," he said, noting the $5 advance admission price does not cover all the expenses.
All the entertainers are paid professionals, plus they have printing expenses, advertising costs and the cost of supplies for the various venues.
The New Year's Eve Salem committee is all volunteers, with no paid positions, working under the umbrella of Salem Renaissance Inc. a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
The committee used to charge more for admission, but with the economy the way it has been in recent years, they reduced the price the last couple of years to $5 for advance tickets, which go on sale Dec. 1 at outlets to be announced at a later date, or $8 for tickets sold after Christmas or at the door. All children under 10 years of age are free with a paid adult accompanying them.
"We've been trying to make it more affordable for families to attend," Schwartz said, noting they wanted to make it more accessible for families since the venues are family-oriented.
He said people who donate to the cause would be helping others spend an alcohol-free family night together by enabling the committee to keep the admission cost low.
Anyone wanting to assist can make out a donation to Salem Renaissance Inc. (EIN: 38-855872) and send it to New Year's Eve Salem, P.O. Box 444, Salem, Ohio 44460. Anyone wanting information about New Year's Eve Salem can visit the website at www.newyearsevesalem.com or call 330-817-6NYE (New Year's Eve).
Last year, two new downtown venues were added and this year, the committee is negotiating to add another new venue, focused on magic for kids of all ages and folk and Americana-style music.
"We're excited about having the possibility of a magic venue," Schwartz said.
They'll continue to have a children's venue and entertainment featuring gospel, bluegrass, rock 'n roll and steel drum music at the various locations in the downtown area. The Kent State University City Center will have rock 'n roll, the Salem Masonic Temple will feature bluegrass, the Church of Our Saviour (Episcopal) will offer old-fashioned gospel and the Memorial Building will offer the children's venue.
Train enthusiasts can visit the Sugartree Alley Railroad Depot at the rear of Fred Naragon's law office to see the model train display. History buffs will have the opportunity to see a family-oriented display at the new Dale Shaffer Research Library off of South Lundy Avenue.
Dinner venues will serve up all types of cuisine, including turkey with stuffing, kielbasa and kraut, pizza, sloppy joes, hot dogs and snack foods. All food is at an additional cost.
"We're still growing and we're certainly glad to be back celebrating the New Year with the Salem residents," Schwartz said.
Since New Year's Eve falls on a Monday, the Banquet in Salem will be serving Salem area residents and attendees will receive a ticket to attend the children's venue at the Memorial Building where there will be a ball drop early in the evening.
Some of the New Years's Eve Salem entertainers returning this year will include Abbey Road, the Tribute Band featuring the Strader family, Allegheny Drifters, Dulci-More, Chip Richter and God's Quad. He said they're hoping to get the Stockdale Family Band back again.
"There's something for everybody," he said.
Other coordinators for the event include Bill Schilling, Randy Strader, Mike Grimstad, John Gilbert and Connie Cranmer.

If you're sick and tired of paying bank fees or being forced to maintain certain requirements for your "free checking account," look no further.
The ING DIRECT Electric Orange checking account is a genuine fee-free checking account that also earns you interest on your hard-earned money. That alone is much more than what the big banks offer their customers.
Typically, you need to maintain a direct deposit or have a certain amount of money in your checking account for it to remain free of charge.
And lately some banks have even pondered charging customers a monthly fee for their checking accounts to recoup losses tied to recent legislative changes.
Why Electric Orange?
Well, as mentioned, you get a free checking account! That's clearly the biggest positive. Aside from that, you also get a $50 sign-up bonus when you open an account (and perform some simple actions), which is more than most checking accounts will yield in a year. Or ever, assuming they don't even earn interest.
To be eligible for that $50 bonus, you need to make a total of three card purchases or Person2Person Payments (or any combo of the two) within 45 days of account opening.
If you do that, the $50 bonus will automatically be deposited into your checking account on day 50.
By card purchases, they mean using your associated MasterCard® Debit Card to make three signature-based (non-pin) transactions.
So when you swipe your debit card, you must either select credit or wait for the merchant to simply print out a receipt. It's not a credit card, but it's handled that way if you don't enter a pin.
Earn Interest On Your Money Everyday
On top of that $50 bonus, you also earn interest on your deposits. Unlike most checking accounts that give you no yield or a microscopic one, you get anywhere from 0.20% to 1.00% APY, depending on your account balance (as of 11/10/2011).
Beyond the bonus and the interest-bearing free checking account, you also get access to 35,000 free ATMs nationwide at places like gas stations, 7-11 stores, Target, Costco, CVS, Rite Aid, etc.
As long as the ATM is part of the Allpoint Network, you're guaranteed to get your money surcharge-free or ING DIRECT will refund any fees you're charged.
You also get a ton of control over your account and it's all online, meaning you can do all your banking on your computer as opposed to waiting in line down at your local branch.
Additionally, the overdraft fees are minimal compared to what the big guys charge. So if you tend to go over your limit often, this account is for you. You can also shuffle money quickly from an ING DIRECT savings account if you've got one, which means more interest earned and less paid in fees.
ING DIRECT Electric Orange Checking Benefits
– Free interest-bearing checking account
– Free MasterCard® Debit Card for all purchases
– Free Online Bill Pay
– Free P2P Payments – send money to any bank account
– Free postage – they will mail paper checks for you
– Free access to 35,000 ATMs nationwide
– No minimum account balance
– No direct deposit requirement for free checking
– $50 sign-up bonus!
I recently signed up for an account myself to snag the $50 account opening bonus and I'm glad I did. On top of the bonus, I can also quickly and easily send money to other bank accounts without having to worry about writing checks and licking stamps. The debit card is also super cool because it doesn't have any identifiable information on the front of the card, which could reduce the chance of fraud.
Also be sure to check out the PerkStreet Financial checking account, which allows you to earn cash back on debit card purchases.
Either way, don't leave your money in a checking account that earns nothing back, or worse, pay a bank while they earn interest on your money!

Evaluate and participate in an open source project
The no-excuses guide to introducing yourself to a new open source project
Getting started in an unfamiliar open source project seems intimidating because it is intimidating; plunging into the unknown usually is. Navigating new territory is a lot easier with a guide—which is why I recently taught a seminar at Hacker School on "getting started contributing to open source" that mostly amounted to "first, find a mentor." The basic steps are:
- Figure out where you want to introduce yourself
- Introduce yourself
There are more detailed walkthroughs of how to evaluate an open source project in other places, but this one is designed to get you to a live person as soon as possible.
Figure out where to introduce yourself
Start by searching the Internet for "a topic that you're interested in" + "open source" or "free software".
Once you've identified a few potential projects, ask yourself:
- Is this project alive? Are code commits recent?
- Are mailing list messages recent and responded to in a timely, helpful manner?
- Are people using this software? (Do you want to use this software? Can you figure out how?)
- Is this a community I want to be part of? (Do they treat each other well?)
The community of people are more important than the code; they're the ones who make the code, and with release cycles that average 6 months, the code moves so fast that your relationships are what will really orient you.
- Where do they hang out and do their work? (What chatroom—usually in IRC—do they use? Do they have a bugtracker or some other giant shared to-do list for the project?)
Once you find out where you can overhear things, you can figure out who you're overhearing, and then start contacting them directly: "I've seen you answering questions on X; can you help me navigate X?"
Most projects have communication methods for code and not-code, and for asynchronous and synchronous work. Try to figure out all four.
- Synchronous Code: git commits (announced by a bot in chat, sent to a feed, etc)
- Synchronous not-code: chat (typically IRC)
- Asynchronous Code: issue/ticket/bug tracker
- Asynchronous not-code: mailing lists or forum, AND wiki
Introduce yourself
One of the most efficient ways to introduce yourself to an open source project is to send an email to the developers mailing list, then reference that email (find the URL of your message in the mailing list archives) during initial chat conversations with people.
A collegue of mine, Maggie, suggests submitting a pull request as your intro letter, which I think is a great idea. What this means is that your introduction email should explain how you are:
- already in the middle of doing a specific helpful task
- and what you're asking for is help doing that specific helpful task.
This may sound daunting until you realize that something useful to help can be very, very small. For example, a few collegues had these experiences:
Rebecca emailed tent saying that she'd been working through their documentation and had ideas for how to improve the clarity of the particular docs at a certain URL (specific helpful task!) and was wondering where to submit her changes (help me do it!).
Jade emailed GIMP offering to test patches (specific helpful task!) and asked which branch and patches would be most helpful to verify (help me do it!).
None of these tasks involve deep knowledge of the code; that comes later. They involved writing in English and compiling C—which is not an impossible thing to learn, especially when you're surrounded by programmers eager to teach. It's also helpful to pair with someone and peer-pressure (positively!) each other to ship your intro emails.
Hacker School is a three-month, full-time school in New York for becoming a better programmer. It is free as in beer, and provides space, a little structure, time to focus, and a friendly community of smart builders dedicated to self-improvement.

Something else to look for is if the project has a dedicated contact point (such as a mentorship list) for people interested in getting started. While small projects won't have that, some of the bigger ones do (precisely because the central development lists for such projects can be an intimidating place!)
Good advices. When participating to open source projects, we get more experience in using tools and codes. Also getting more experience to deal with people and work in a group. You're really going to enjoy it
Great post, thanks for sharing Mel!
Might I add that a forum can be a good place also, to introduce yourself. Especially when there are helpful and active moderators around. They can be an excellent guide also. As a former moderator myself, I always tried to welcome new members, provide them with resources, guide them and by doing so help them introduce to the project I was active in.
Good advice. Really one must first clearly identify the area where one wants to contribute, then half of the work is already done.
and if you know the etiquettes to communicate on IRC then finding a mentor is an easy task.

Shoppers flock to Spring Fling
Town starts bid process on projects
Mosquitoes, meters and many things in between have garnered the attention of the Board of Aldermen in recent weeks.
On March 15, town officials discussed the hiring of an aerial flying service for mosquito control. Boyle Flying Service, doing business as Advanced Mosquito Control, asked town officials to sign an authorization form for the Federal Aviation Administration allowing them to apply chemicals by air. The authorization request did not obligate the town to hire Boyle.
Alderman Jack Graves moved to allow Mayor Chuck Cariker to sign the authorization request if the town decided to hire Boyle. Graves's motion was unanimously approved.
Board reverses on local and privates
What a difference a few days can make.
Last week, county supervisors couldn't come to a consensus about requesting local and private legislation from the Mississippi Legislature, but this week, a vote was unanimous.
On Thursday, March 31, Board of Supervisors president James Dunn recommended submitting a bill that combined a stipulation about part of the gaming taxes that go to the Tunica County School District and an authorization to renew funding to the Tunica Museum.
"I have one recommendation regarding Tunica County School District gaming revenue," Dunn said. "to earmark four percent to satisfy bonded indebtedness (from) the construction of a new high school, and for the Board to support the Tunica Museum (with) a one mill allocation for calendar years 2017 and 2018."
Dunn clarified that the four percent set aside was part of the School District's 14 percent overall allocation and that the Board could allocate up to one mill to the museum.
"We continue to ignore these other nonprofits," District 4 supervisor Henry Nickson said. "Multiple people need to be involved, not just two entities."
"They need to come and ask us," District 2 supervisor Michael Johnson responded.
Hooray for Rivergate!

I feel sorry for Tracy McGrady. I could scream about his selfishness, but this thing goes way beyond McGrady caring more about himself than the team. There's a real element of sadness in this deal.
Yes, he bailed on his teammates this weekend. When Rick Adelman wouldn't give him what he wanted, McGrady got mad and left. In that moment, he revealed that he's only a member of a team as long as its in his own best interest.
Yes, he's the NBA's highest-paid player at $22.8 million, so he's not a sympathetic figure in the way most people see sympathetic figures.But he's 30 years old and on the verge of being considered a has-been. Think of how that must feel.
All we know for sure is that McGrady is a shell of the player he once was. Is he capable of being great again? That's the thing no one can answer. Meanwhile, the Rockets are playing and winning and doing things almost no one thought possible when they prepared to play a season without Yao Ming, Ron Artest and McGrady. Back when training camp began, we didn't know how good these Rockets would begin.
We've seen a team grow and get better by the day. Carl Landry has emerged as an impact player. So have Chase Budinger and Kyle Lowry and Aaron Brooks.
Adelman has done a brilliant job making all the pieces fit together. He may one day look back on these Rockets as one of his proudest accomplishments.
We're now looking at these Rockets differently, but we sitll have no idea how good they're going to be. They enter today's game at Cleveland with an 18-12 record, sixth-best in the Western Conference. They've survived a brutal early schedule on a 49-victory pace. Now they play 12 of their next 17 at home.
It probably is killing McGrady to see how the Rockets have moved on without him. Their stunning success probably hurts him far more deeply than he would admit even to himself.
These Rockets are passionate, unselfish and tough as nails. Those are three traits they didn't always have when Tracy McGrady was their cornerstone. He was once as gifted as any NBA player, but even when he was at his best, there was something missing. McGrady's legacy is that he never won a playoff series. We can rationalize all the different reasons, but the bottom line is clear.
He's incapable of playing the way they're now committed to playing. Instead of turning this team into a training camp for McGrady, Adelman wants to keep moving forward.
So there's no place for McGrady. He wants to play more, but the Rockets don't think he can help.
What do we do now? The Rockets surely are desperately trying to trade him, but a tough economy has made an expiring contract less attractive than it would have been in previous years. If the Rockets trade him now, they're going to have to throw a Chase Budinger or Carl Landry into the deal. Daryl Morey is unwilling to do that.
Adelman and McGrady will meet again before Tuesday's game to determine a course of action. Adelman seems unlikely to promise more playing time, and McGrady has been unwilling to accept less.
Not that these meetings matter. Adelman thought he and McGrady had reached an agreement in their previous meeting. McGrady would trust Adelman to do what was best for both the Rockets and him. Almost immediately, he began complaining that he needed more time.
If I had a guess, I'd guess McGrady will not be back on the bench when the Rockets play New Orleans Tuesday night. I just can't see him putting the uniform back on after this latest dustup.
I just hope someone in his camp is telling him the truth. That truth is going to be tough to hear. It's that he has no allies in the locker room, none on the coaching staff or front office.
Some fans still believe, but that's because they're seeing McGrady for what he once was or what they'd like him to be instead of what he actually is.

Did you know that Nascar stands for "National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing"? I can see why they shortened the name! Nascar was founded by "Bill France Sr.". Bill France Sr., moved to Daytona Beach, Florida in 1935, to ecape the Great Depression. Daytona was the place where people tried to break record speeds, Bill knew quite a bit about this. France entered the Daytona event in 1936, finishing in 5th place. Bill then took over and Nascar was born. Today, Nascar is the largest sanctioning body of stock car racing in the United States.
The jungle was a novle written by Upton Sinclair.
So who were the Wright Brothers? Orville and Wilbur Wright, invented the first stealth aricraft. The total wing span of the plane was 16 ft. and was gasoline powered. The first plane that they made, stayed in the air for a total of 12 seconds! That was the longest known to man. After working on their inventions for many years, Orville remained in flight for an hour and two minuites! That was a new record!
Henry Ford founded the Ford company on June 16 1903. He invents the first motor vehicle in October of 1908. The "model T" started out at $950. Prices changed throughout the year dropping as low as $280 at one time. Over all there were about 15,500,000 model T's sold in the US alone! As technolgy incresed, his cars have become much more advanced and are used by millions of people every day.
The definition of a typewriter is "A mechanical or electromechanical machine for writing in characters similar to those produced by printer's type by means of keyboard-operated types striking a ribbon to transfer ink or carbon impressions onto the paper." The inventor of the typewriter was Christopher Latham Sholes. Sholes wanted to invent something like a portable printing press, this is how the typewriter came about. After Shole made his mecanich typewriter, Thomas Alva Edison, made the first electric typewriter.

The Biltmore House is the largest home in America. It comes to a total of 125,000 acres! THATS HUGE! Just incase that doesn't mean much to you I'll break it down. The Biltmore Home has a total of 250 rooms, there are 4 acres of floor space. 34 bedrooms, 43 bathrooms, and 65 fireplaces. The basement itslelf has a swimming pool, changing rooms, a bowling ally, servents qurters, kitchens and more! Believe it or not, an actual family did live here. It contained a family of three, a man, his wife, and their only child.
Cuba decided to rebell aginst Spain, and their rulers. The Spanish used cruel methods to crush the rebells. Americans became concerned because this was 1) effecting our trade and 2) People were being treated brutally. In April of 1898 America requested that Cuba be freed of Spanish rule, and that Spain would withdraw their forces. Spain then became angry with us, starting the "Spanish American war". On August 12, 1898, Spain finally signed a truce and the war ended.

In the early 1800's, Christians from the US moved to the kingdom of Hawii to introduce Christianity. In 1891, the Queen of Hawii (Queen Liliuokalani) belived that planters (or American immigrants) had too much say in what happend in Hawii. She dicided that their power in her kingdom should be limited. The American planters in Hawii felt offended and threatend, so the people revolted aginst the Queen and removed her from power. The people of Hawii then requested to join the United States.
Ellis Island is a small island in the waters of New York. As you can tell from the picture, this is the location of The Statue of Liberty. Between the opening date and 1954, at least 12 million people used Ellis Island while immigrating. The orignal size of the island was 3.3 acres. Through the years the island has grown to be 27.5 acres! Ellis island is now a big tourist spot in the US but it was built to be an immigration station. This was changed when immigration was regulated in the United States.
To find out more information/ history on Ellis island, check out the link below!
So what do you think happened when all of those millions of immigrants came to the US? Things got pretty crowded. Jane Addams, decided to do somthing about this, and she decided to open a Hull House. Hull Houses became a new and diffrent model of settlement houses throughout America. This was a home intended for the poor, immigrants, children, and women. This gave them somewhere to go, no matter why they were otherwise rejected.

The pedestal for the Statue was to be provided by the US, the financing for this was completed in August of 1885. The pedestal was completed in April of 1886. The statue had to be reassembled four times before it was right! On October 28th, 1886, the statue was offically dedacaited to America.

EAST HANOVER — East Hanover school officials say they are giving bullying victims a higher level of anonymity by allowing students the option of reporting incidents to the Morris County Sheriff's CrimeStoppers program.
School district leaders and law enforcement officials touted the new partnership – believed to be the first of its kind in the state – during a press conference today at East Hanover Middle School.
By reporting incidents to CrimeStoppers, "Children don't have to physically do anything in the school," explained Superintendent Joseph Ricca. "They don't have to drop off a paper in the principal's office."
Bullying victims, who may be too embarrassed to discuss their plight with anyone, are "always afraid" someone will see them making the report, and fear the information may get to the bully, who would retaliate, Ricca said.
With the new program, students can contact CrimeStoppers at its website, with a text message, or with a phone call, Ricca said. An incident report is then generated for school officials. The police become involved only if the bullying report involves a criminal activity, such as an assault, Ricca said.
The partnership was made in response to the state's tough new anti-bullying law that became effective this month, setting procedures for schools to investigate and resolve bullying reports and requiring each district to appoint an anti-bullying coordinator and an anti-bullying specialist.
CrimeStoppers, a program already in place before the legislation was passed, gives students an outlet for reporting incidents that won't require "additional funding" from local taxpayers, Ricca pointed out.
Children in East Hanover – a K-8 district with about 1,100 students in two elementary schools and one middle school – still have the options of reporting bullying incidents by telling a teacher or staff member or dropping off an anonymous note, Ricca pointed out.
John Sette, chairman of Morris CrimeStoppers, which has been taking anonymous tips for 25 years, said the anti-bullying program with East Hanover is "the first of its kind in the United States." It is intended to "create a model" for use by other districts, Ricca said.
It came about in East Hanover, Ricca said, when the district was looking to "refine its program" in light of the new legislation to foster "the safest possible environment for students."
CrimeStoppers Commissioner Gary Moses emphasized that the program is intended as a "support service" and "law enforcement will not be present in any schools."
Three student leaders at the middle school said they believe the program's heightened anonymity will help reduce bullying incidents.
Although bullying is not a huge problem in the school, it does happen, but "no one points out the bullies because they don't want to be called tattle-tales," said student council president Nicolina Boeckel, an eighth-grader.
"A lot of people have gone through name-calling, and it does hurt," said council vice president Renee Racioppi.
Council member Matthew Pateiro, an eighth-grader, said boys tend to be more physical than girls, but even among boys, the bullying involves "teasing" more than beatings.
Matthew called CrimeStoppers "a good alternative" for reporting incidents, because students are afraid they might be "targets" if it becomes known that they made a report.
Morris County CrimeStoppers may be contacted at www.copcall.org or (973) 267-2255.

Looking for Artists in the Middle Ages: Craft and Skill in a Pre-Modern World
Presented by Heidi Gearhart, PhD, Assistant Professor of Art History.
The Medieval and Early Modern Studies (MEMS) Program at Assumption College Invites you to the Fourth Annual MEMS Faculty Lecture
Few artists are known from the Middle Ages, and one often assumes the medieval artist to be a humble craftsman. But was this really the case? Were there no artists at all, or if there were, were they merely servants of their patrons?

Eh, I don't think it would be so great on the DS. My opinion, though.
I'd go PC with it all the way, but that's my opinion.
Well, since the other versions of this game are supposed to be really good, I was wondering if i should get it, but thought it would be smart to ask all of you who have it, or if you've played it. i also have a question: does this game support single-card download play? I was also wondering if the game play is similar to that of Metroid Prime Hunters, with the first-person view and using the touchscreen to aim, and the overall pretty good control sheme.

So..... I guess this game sucks then. Can't get it for pc because my computer is fricken SLOW. Guess i will just have to hope for Call of Duty 5 coming out on the Wii.
its a really good ds game. uses the same aiming style as metroid hunters too.
ive got the 360 version too and they've actually done a really good job of bringing the experience onto the ds.
and i think it does the multicard play. no online though.
so theres no single-card multiplayer? if not then its not even worth itOriginally Posted by lackluster dj

It is pretty fun. It has multicard and singlecard. Same scheme as Metroid.
A few of the levels seem repetitive.
Pain is Weakness Leaving the Body
Don't waste your money on it. Completely crap (especially for me being a CoD vet and sorta an mph vet). SP is pretty boring and the MP (which is what it should be based around) is glitched up and has so much stuff missing. For instance you're stuck with what weapon you pick at the start (can't pick anything if in DL play), you can't jump or prone, if you don't headshot you need like 20 shots to kill in the body and just simply the gameplay and everything. Played the game on 360 the other day (Normally I stick to pc) and still that was heaps of fun and with far more control. Plus there's no wifi, bots or more than 4 players.
Oh yeah controls are sorta similar to mph, but there's too much double tapping to do stuff, you may zoom when you don't want to (just moving around) and sometimes you just can't zoom.

PM me if you add me in either.
If you need any help on playing either of these two games competitively just drop me a PM and I'll see what I can do. I'll rate your team for you as well (not Tetris lol), but make sure it has EVs, natures, items and descriptions.
I'll also help with almost any other DS game including MKDS, DKRDS, MPH, CoD4MW, EBA. Note: I say competitive alot and I like to win lol.
it not that much of a good game on ds
Thanks to LinksDarkSide for the sig
you have to realize that when you play a 360 game on the ds, there's going to be obvious hardware and gameplay limitations.
also, unlike the other versions, this one is more based on the single player (that's why theres no wifi imo)
the ds is hurting for fps. this one does it well for the selection that's out there.

Remember Libya?
When Libya comes up in policy discussions, the conversation quickly moves toward the state of play in Syria, where the regime appears to be upholding a tenuous ceasefire. Reports of attacks against the opposition are ongoing, however, and could quickly unravel the fragile agreement. Meanwhile, in Libya, efforts to consolidate democracy and stabilize the country are under a growing threat.
The Obama administration's approach to Syria, and its effort to employ coercive multilateral diplomacy, makes sense. Given the perfect storm of threats that underpin that crisis — from direct U.S. national security concerns to escalating regional instability to systematic, brutal attacks on innocent civilians — American engagement is essential. Unfortunately, however, the intractability of the Syrian crisis has pushed a very fragile Libya to the side, long before its time.

Study: About 1 in 6 Teachers Out 18 Days or More
About 1 in 6 teachers was "chronically absent" during the 2012-13 school year and accounted for about one-third of all teacher absences, according to a report by the National Council on Teacher Quality.
With data collected from 40 public-school districts across the country, the nonprofit research and policy organization suggests that a simple way to boost education quality could be improving teacher attendance and focusing on the 16% of chronically absent teachers, who missed 18 days or more of the school year. The report, to be released Tuesday, cites previous studies linking teachers' attendance rates with student outcomes.
"Teacher attendance can be a really easy win to increase teacher quality," said Nancy Waymack, managing director for district policy at the National Council on Teacher Quality, which advocates stronger teacher-evaluation tools and has sometimes been at odds with teachers unions. "Regardless of how effective a teacher may be, it does not matter if the teacher is not in the classroom. Getting the teacher into the classroom every day is an important part of having a highly effective school."
The report found that, on average, public-school teachers were present in their classrooms 94% of the school year and missed about 11 days. The average school year is 186 days. Long-term absences, defined as more than 10 days missed in a row, weren't counted in the report to control for maternity or paternity leave, as well as long-term illness.
"While some, no doubt, will find fault with teachers in this attendance report, an overall 94% attendance rate shows the extraordinary dedication of teachers across the country, who come to school each day ready and excited to teach," said Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers. "This kind of stability is what our kids need to succeed."
Incentives to keep teachers in school, such as extra payments for unused sick days, didn't affect teacher absences, the report found. Ms. Waymack said that researchers learned anecdotally that cultural changes could make a larger difference, such as requiring teachers to call their bosses to report their absences in addition to requesting substitute teachers by computer.
Substitute teachers cost about $424 million for the 40 districts included in the report during the 2012-13 school year.
The Hillsborough County Public Schools District in Tampa, Fla., ranked among the top five of the 40 districts in the report, with a teacher attendance rate of 95.5%.
"Teacher absence affects the consistency in the classroom," said Danielle Shotwell, principal of Eisenhower Middle School in the district. "We've tried to create a culture among teachers that they care about each other, so that unless they absolutely have to [take an absence], they don't want to put undue burden on their peers."

I am doing this BTEC Level 3 Extended Diploma in Appiled (Forensic) Science in college. Though I have already done 2 years at a sixth form and have got A-Levels in the following bTEC Forensic Science (6 units) but didn't manage to get enough UCAS points. I needed 220 but I only got 120 so I was fairly a large amount of UCAS points away. That is when I decided to pick up this course in college to gain more UCAS points. So what I wanted to ask was in the 10 units I am currently doing. I am trying to aim for all MERIT or DISCINTION. So I was wondering if you could tell me now many UCAS points I would receive in my first year if I got a MERIT. Could you tell me also the amount of UCAS I would get if I got a DISCINTION. Please and thank you.

I still wonder if Corbin sucks so bad because there is pressure on him to win now, though some of his rotations are puzzling. For example, by this time, based on performance, you would think Carroll should've been promoted to starting and Williams to the bench, or at least Carroll should be getting more minutes. And Hayward is clearly the better all-around player than Foye. And we all know what he is doing to the development and confidence of Kanter and Burks, and his gutless reliance on Big Al to score down the stretch.
And George continues to entertain this board with his trolling. Come march or April will anyone remember this guy? Doubt it
Lakers Suck.
Wont be able to watch most of the game. Bumping pre-emptively for likely yet another brilliant coaching performance from his excellency, Coach Corbin.
Bump, for Ty and the coaching staff developing Alec Burks to have the distrubtion-skills that we never foresaw
When will this dude get his credit?? 30-24, .500 as a coach despite missing his two best guards in Hayward and Mo.

Fenton Township Fire Chief Ryan Volz did not have a condition on the boy's status following the incident which began around 8:30 p.m. on Hi Land Trail near Owen Road.
"They were just out there playing on one of those bouncing platforms," said Volz, noting the boy may have been visiting the area from out of town.
Volz said the boy had been in the water for 35 to 45 minutes before he was found by the state police's dive team. Neighbors in the area were offering no comments on the incident.
Fenton Township Fire officials were joined by the state police dive team, Genesee County Sheriff Department Dive Team and Woody's Towing Dive Team in addition to Michigan State Police.
Volz said more information on the incident and the boy's condition should come from the Michigan State Police Monday morning.

"Why your should use Fix My Resume?"
Fix My Resume have a better understanding of what recruiters are looking for in a resume. We know it is getting much harder to get interviews in today's competitive job market. We will highlight the barriers between you and the hiring manager, and how to overcome them. Applicant Tracking sSystem (ATS) are the first barrier. We are sure you've seen Taleo and PeopleSoft when applying for jobs through the Seek website. All the big companies like BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto use them. These software programs have been created to filter through the thousands of resumes received by companies every day. Did you know the ATS will eliminate over 95% of job applications? Take your time, complete ATS process accurately. We suggest you copy and paste your resume content into the fields provided. Do not trust the software to parse your resume perfectly every time. Check carefully before submitting. Don't give up! Remember, you will be ahead of every person who has quit during the process and lots of people do. You need to know this and understand how it will increase your chances of being found in the ATS.
"Can your resume pass the ATS test?"
In the Taleo, the leading ATS worldwide, you must be an "ACE" candidate. What is an ACE candidate? The ACE candidate is someone who meets every minimum requirement. That's right, someone who meets EVERY MINIMUM REQUIREMENT will rank higher than most. The ATS compares your resume with to the position description, looking for keyword matches. The better your resume is "keyword optimised" the higher you will rank in the ATS search results. You need to "keyword optimise" your resume with the keywords and keyword phrases used in the position description or the job advertisement. What does "ACE" actually mean? It is an acronym. A for Abilities, C for Competencies and E for Experience. Your abilities are your technical and non-technical skills; your competencies are your education, training, inductions, tickets and licenses, and of course your work experience. If your resume clearly demonstrates that you have ALL the relevant skills, experience and qualifications for the job requires, you are a much better chance of being an ACE candidate.
"The ATS just ATE my resume!"
If your resume fails to meet all the minimum requirements, you will not be an ACE candidate. Your resume will appear lower in the ATS search results, and below every ACE candidate that has been found. This does not mean your resume will never be found, but you odds are much lower. Optimising your resume increases your chances of being found in the ATS. Here's the reality check! To have a real chance of getting a job interview, your resume really must be found in the top 20 search results. The ATS will return by default approximately 300 resumes that match the job description. No recruiters have time to read 300 resumes for one job. And there is your next barrier, the Recruiter. Recruitment agencies are competing for the same jobs you want, so they can earn commissions on placing you into the role. If a recruiter finds and views your resume in the ATS, you have less than 10 seconds to convince them you are a suitable candidate. A recent study by The Ladders in the US found recruiters spend on average just 6.25 seconds viewing a resume. Think you need help writing a professional resume that can convince a recruiter almost instantly?
"Help, I am not getting job interviews."
Only 1% to 2% of job applicants secure a job interview! A recruiter can easily receive over 300 applications for a single job, but will only consider 4 or 5 people for the position. If the recruiter likes what they read, you will get a phone call for a job interview. If you can convince the recruiter that you have what they want, then they will recommend you to the hiring manager. The hiring manager will review your resume and decide if they want to interview you. If your resume clearly demonstrates everything the hiring manager wants, you will get a job interview. It is necessary to maintain good relationships with recruiters, after all, it will be the recruiter who recommends you to the hiring manager. Understand, recruiters must meet a strict brief they have received from the hiring manager, in order to preserve their credibility and reputation.
