Interesting. I wonder what all the black African Gaddhafi apologists will think when they read this article and discover that their beloved King of Kings of Africa considered them all to be no better than black slaves.

Am black african,but i dont think i can go to libya and feel safe the way i would during the time of gadaf..we all know what is happening to tawaregans and other africans in libya now.people from bangradesh,europe and arabs are allowed to go and work in libya now,but black africans are not ..i work with arabs,irish,sebs and many more races from europe but the only people i feel part of,are aussies,irish and british..arabs are hipocrits and too greedy,if you visit any strip club,you would be shocked to find that 90% of customers are arabs but during the day look at what they do to their women..at some eid prayers, some arab refused to shake my hand.so what ever gadaf said about africans i dont care,
because most of the arabs are the same,'hypocrits'and all what is happening in their countries its because the westeners discovered there weakness and that is greed,lack of brotherly love and ruthlessness....

Hey, young British mercenary, are you still in here? when did you get out of Syria ?
It looks like things are going from bad to worse for the rebels.
Assad is kicking their asses.
#7 Jul 22, 2012
The Syrian rebels saw the attack on Tripoli and thought they could win the battles of Damascus and Aleppo.No NATO in the air is the difference.They are now in tactical retreat.lol.They are so desperate the chemical weapons line is being used.

Don't you read any news through to the end? "Assad is kicking their asses" in deed! It sure doesn't seem to be helping him. It's the wide spread opinion of most Syria experts and journalists that Assad's days are now irrefutably numbered. It's now supposed to be only a question of time for his regime to collapse. Assad better watch out that he doesn't end up like Gaddhafi. I'd hate to see something like that again especially with Assad. He might be a dictator but he hasn't earned that kind of end.

I don't think anyone, least of all the rebels, seriously imagined Damascus falling so easily like Tripoli. The regime's forces are still far too strong. But it's now been proven that Damascus is not unassailable anymore. That in itself is a message to anyone in or near the regime who are still considering their options. I think we'll be now seeing even more regime defections.
Also the regime has had to pull out forces from other parts of the country to shore up defences in the capital leaving important parts of Syria undermanned. Experts think that's the reason why the rebels have now managed to take a few border crossings.
Border crossings are always important to insurgents. They can be used to get supplies through for themselves and block supplies to the enemy. I used to think that Assad had a good chance of winning. Now I'm almost certain that he's going to lose.

Yep, the source is suspicious and the information maybe BS. We shall see if other sources confirm it or not.
But good for you! You actually do watch out what sources the "news" is coming from. I wish others here would do the same instead of repeatedly quoting some BS websites.

This article is just more complete BULL SH.T and nothing more.The lies and propaganda from the terrorist supporting american jewish controlled government never stop do they.
#12 Jul 23, 2012
They will know it is lies and disinformation spread by the terrorist american government and israel. All designed to try and tarnish the good name of Gadaffi.I suspect the people of africa will remember the billions of dollars he gave to the various countries of africa to help free them from the grip of the IMF and world bank.Gadaffi truly cared about his people and the people of africa.
#13 Jul 23, 2012
Continue to dream terrorist supporting jewish propagandist.The terrorist in Syria are being caught and killed more every day thankfully.Assad is doing a great job of fighting these terrorist which are funded and armed by the american government and israel.
#14 Jul 23, 2012
Do not try the lies and propaganda about border crossings because we are already aware that is BS jewish terrorist supporting propagandist.
#15 Jul 23, 2012
They would be handy crossings if there was a funded and organised logistics chain in turkey or Jordan to supply the tens of thousands of rebels.This task is huge and very expensive.Maybe the funding and support for the rebels is larger than reported.Would love to find out where the billions to support all this is coming from.Printed US dollars most likely.lol.

Those Rats claim to have taken control of a small town on the Turkish border,if true i believe the Turkish Military are providing not just weapons but troops who look like Syrian rebels,most people have fled the area,the Syrians should call in massive air strikes on those bastards then send in troops to finish the job,i think with the help of the Turks they are trying to carve out an area on the border so they can bring in weapons and manpower

For sure, money is flowing into this insurgency, but billions? Insurgencies by their very nature have one thing in common, they are the poor man's way of waging war. If anything there will be only a low level flow of supplies. And I'm not talking about tanks or anything like heavy weaponry. Even insurgents have to eat, need gas for transport, medical aid, a means to get their wounded out of the conflict area and a place to rest and gather strength without having to fear attack.

I've been following this conflict very closely now the past few weeks simply because next year I'll be in the area and want to know what I'm letting myself in for. At the present moment it would be idiotic for anyone to try to travel through the country, I just hope things get better by the time Im there but Im pessimistic. Im already planning alternative routes through Iraq, not really a pleasant thought.
As far as I've heard from my contacts most of the open Syrian countryside is now in the hands of the rebels. They move about within these areas with impunity. Most of the bigger towns though are still in the hands of the regime but there are also many smaller towns in the hands of the rebels that are surrounded by regime troops.
Whatever you hear about the Turks you have to remember just one thing, they have only one agenda, keeping the Kurdish insurgency in Turkey in check. They dont care who is in charge in Syria as long as they keep the Kurdish opposition in Syria down for them. Assad seems to have done this quite well for the Turks and thats why they were friends until recently. With the rebel insurgency this has now changed.
Thats the real reason why Turkey is advocating and even putting into place a safe area along their border in Syria for Syrian refugees. Firstly it keeps them all out of Turkey and secondly it puts a block between the Kurds and themselves.
Massive air strikes against Turkish troops? Are you at all sane? Firstly Turkey is militarily one of the biggest regional powers, Syria is a gnome in comparison. And secondly Turkey is also a member of NATO. Syria attacking a member NATO state could invoke NATO into going into Syria and sorting the regime out. And I can tell you, the US are just itching for an excuse to do just that.

The Common Grackle (Quiscalus quiscula) is an abundant and gregarious blackbird found in partly open situations with scattered trees, open coniferous and deciduous woodlands, forest edges, and suburbs. It breeds across approximately the eastern two thirds of Canada (from Alberta to southern Quebec) and the United States (from Montana, Colorado and easten New Mexico to the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts), with the winter range contracting to the southeast of the much broader breeding range. The range has been expanding westward in recent decades. Two forms (both appearing all black at a distance) were at one time recognized as distinct species: The "Bronzed Grackle", which occurs in most of New England and west of the Appalachians, has a bronze back, blue head, and purple tail; the smaller "Purple Grackle", found east of the Appalachians, has a narrow bill, purple head, bottle green back, and purple tail. Birds from the mid-Atlantic states show variable head color and a purplish back with iridescent bands of variable color. The familiar song of the Common Grackle resembles the sound of a creaking gate; the call note is a loud, deep chuck.
Common Grackles are omnivorous . They forage mainly by walking on the ground or wading in very shallow water. Outside the breeding season, they usually forage in flocks.
Common Grackles often nest in small colonies of 10 to 30 pairs (sometimes as many as 100 or more) and several males may perch in adjacent treetops to sing their creaking, grating songs. In courtship, the male fluffs out his body feathers, partly spreads his wings and tail, and delivers a short scraping song; he also postures with his bill pointing straight up. The nest is typically built in dense vegetation less than 6 m above the ground. The nest, which is built by the female, is a bulky open cup of weeds, grass, and twigs, usually with some mud added, and the inside is lined with fine grass. The 4 to 5 (sometimes as few as two or as many as 6) pale blue eggs are blotched with brown. Incubation is by the female only for 12 to 14 days. Both parents feed the young, bringing them mostly insects. The young leave the nest around 16 to 20 days after hatching.
Common Grackles are present year-round across much of their range. Migration usually involves large flocks. In the north, migration takes place quite early in spring and rather late in the fall.

When I first started pumping with my Medela pump instyle (shortly after Thanksgiving) my milk would spray out at first for a few mins then just continue to drip for about 20 min pumping sessions, I was only getting 2 oz total from both sides, I've been pumping religiously every day since then every 2-3 hours�(on the highest setting) and now it just drips out and i have to pump for 30-60 mins and still only get 2-4oz, my little one is 5 weeks old and i'm having a hard time keeping up with his feedings, he eats about every two hours and 2-3oz at a time, I started taking fenugreek (2 pills twice a day)�and i eat oatmeal every morning and drink plenty of fluids so I don't understand why my milk isn't increasing. Is it normal for it to just drip out? I've watched videos on pumping and the women always get a stream coming out and they fill 5oz bottles like nothing, I want to do that!!� How can I get more?
Also, I have small nipples when I start pumping with the 24mm Medela flanges and after i'm done they are like 3 times their original size! I put on the small nipple shields while pumping and it kept them from swelling but it seemed to take longer to get the milk out, is a little swelling normal? I thought i needed bigger flanges but those made me swell even more! I looked online for smaller flanges but can't find any, could the swelling be from the fact that the flanges are too large and my nipples are enlarging to fill the tubes and I need smaller flanges to keep that from happening? It doesn't hurt at all when I pump, infact I barely feel it (i always pump on the highest setting the whole time)�but once i'm done my nipples hurt when they get hard or rub on something and it takes them a little while to shrink back down. My boobs always feel heavy and hurt a lot of the time like they are full of milk but I can't get it out! I've tried hot showers and massage before and during pumping and it doesn't make a difference, I'm not sure what to do but I want to be able to just give breast milk and I need help!

In the routine examination of prostatic secretion for the presence or absence of bacteria, and particularly gonococci, it is of the greatest importance to examine the cytoplasm of large numbers of pus cells. The small amount of pus that may be present is often so diluted with prostatic secretion that direct smears of the material are so thin as to make the finding of any number of pus cells a difficult task. The thicker parts of films dry slowly with consequent shrinking of the cytoplasm to a mere band surrounding the nucleus, within which it is almost impossible to recognize the morphologic appearance of organisms that may be present. The normal fluid itself also stains, making the examination of very thick areas impossible. After many attempts to devise a practical method of concentration of the cellular elements in prostatic secretion, the technic here described, which consists essentially of the use

Unemployment and demographics in September 2008
October 07, 2008
The unemployment rate (6.1 percent) was unchanged in September, following a 0.4-percentage point rise in August. The number of unemployed persons was little changed at 9.5 million. Over the past 12 months, the number of unemployed persons has increased by 2.2 million and the unemployment rate has risen by 1.4 percentage points.
The unemployment rates for adult men (6.1 percent) and blacks (11.4 percent) rose in September. The jobless rates for teenagers (19.1 percent), whites (5.4 percent) and Hispanics (7.8 percent) were essentially unchanged.
The unemployment rate for adult women declined to 4.9 percent, partly offsetting an increase in August.
These data are from the Current Population Survey program and are seasonally adjusted. More information can be found in "The Employment Situation: September 2008," (PDF) (HTML) news release USDL 08-1367.

Today, on the other hand, might be a good opportunity for a breath, some down time before the festive times begin. If you are up early, why not an early morning bird walk in Washington Park or a nature hike in Franklin? »Read Full Blog Post

Rome is home to some of Italy's best pizza
By Maria Pasquale
Rome Local Expert
Whoever said the best pizza can only be found in Naples, was certainly mistaken. Contrary to common belief, some of Italy's most delicious pizza can be found in Rome. Roman pizza is the paper thin and crispy crust variety and while it is the norm here, you can also find the classic Neapolitan style if that's what you like. You're really in for a treat with many of Rome's pizzaioli (pizza-makers) consistently striving for excellence and innovation.
If it's a sit down pizzeria meal you're having, do as the Romans and start off by ordering fritti. These are fried treats and generally include suppli (rice ball), potato croquettes, stuffed zucchini flowers and salt cod fish (baccala). In Rome you accompany your pizza with beer.
For a modern setting and where the pizza rarely disappoints, Emma is right in the historical heart. If it's a truly authentic Roman pizza experience you're in the market for, head to Ai Marmi (Pannatoni) in Trastevere - you will most likely have to wait for a table and then sit elbow to elbow with other diners, but it's worth it. For the best pizza margherita in town go to Da Remo in Testaccio and for a little different lunchtime snack, try Il Pinsere.
Rome's favourite street food pizza al taglio (pizza by the slice) is more and more popular and for some slices that won't disappoint, head to Bonci's Pizzarium or I Suppli in Trastevere - here the bake their pizzas in old style thin trays and their marinara is one of the best in town.
Whatever you're after, Rome has got all you pizza lovers covered.
La Pratolina
Open only at night, La Pratolina, located in Prati and not far from the Vatican this place is great for a little different take on classic Roman pizza. Pizza here is called a pinsa - a rectangular shaped slab served on a plate. It's still the thin variety but has a raised crust and is delicious. You'll find all the classics here but the prosciutto is one of their specialties. The fritti are also worth the trip with croquettes, stuffed olives and zucchini flowers and suppli all fried to perfection. Closed Sundays. METRO: Lepanto (06 3600 4409)
La Gatta Mangiona
La Gatta Mangiona is located in the Monteverde neighbourhood, completely away from the historical center and tourist area but close enough and easy to reach. Most of the clientele are locals here and you will truly feel you've ticked 'authentic local experience' off your Rome to-do list. The fritti including the fried zucchini flowers and potato croquettes are delicious and the daily specials for pizza change daily with inventive and seasonal combinations. Desserts are all home made and the pannacotta with fresh strawberries is divine. TRAM: 8 (06 5346702)
Il Cuore di Napoli
Located a stone's throw from Termini Station and Piazza della Repubblica is this family run cosy treasure. The pizza will make you think you're in Napoli with it's fluffy crust, thin center and freshest of ingredients. The classic margherita is the special but the pork sausage and mushroom is also great. Great for lovers of Neapolitan cuisine, at Il Cuore di Napoli it's not just pizza, but seafood - especially the pastas - is just delicious. If you start with the classic antipasto you'll get to try the fried pasta cresciuta, literally balls of dough which are amazing. Classic Neapolitan home-made desserts are also stand out. BUS: 6, 16. METRO: Repubblica, Castro Pretorio. (06 44340252)
Pizzeria "Il Pinsere"
Il Pinsere is a whole-in-the-wall pizza shop located a short distance from Termini station and Piazza della Repubblica. Frequented by locals and people who work in the area, the lunchtime rush is madness but a lot of fun. Unlike most pizza al taglio places in Rome, here you order by the pizza but they round and smaller than your regular pizza. Featuring toppings like zucchini flowers, sundried tomatoes, roasted vegetables, buffalo mozzarella, pork sausage and pancetta, you won't be at all disappointed or hungry afterwards. There is a small bench area outside but it's really made for stand up eating or take away. BUS: 16, 6. METRO: Repubblica. (06 42020924)
Da Ivo
Surrounded by dozens of tourist trap restaurants in Trastevere, Da Ivo remains a bustling neighborhood pizzeria and authentic in both its service and menu. Like many of the Rome old guard pizza joints, you can stand at the counter and watch the pizzamakers fire your pizza together with the hundreds they keep turning over throughout the night. Roman style, thin crust pizza is on the menu here as well as the basics of cucina romana (everything from artichoke and fried starters to carbonara and main courses, saltimbocca alla romana). Expect service to be a little slow but your pizza to generally be on point. Tram: 8, Bus: 23, 3, 75 (06 581 7082)
Da Remo
Located in the heart of the working class district of Testaccio, Remo's pizza is pretty hard to top. This pizza place is most famous for its paper thin(literally) pizza. Menus don't exactly exist here, so be prepared to have in mind what kind of toppings you'll pick out for your pizza. A waiter will come around with a scorecard of sorts where you will check off the ingredients for pizza pie and other items to go along with your dinner order. Outdoor tables available, but expect to wait in line for a little if you arrive late. BUS: 170, 30. METRO: Piramide (06-5746270)
Gabrielle Bonci has been dubbed the 'Michelangelo of pizza making' and he deserves every accolade. Baker turned pizza magician, he's famed for his experimental toppings (he is said to use 1,500 ingredients per year ranging from melon to licorice) and championing slow-rise dough. This tiny spot features his daily changing pizza by-the-slice creations with their subversively fluffy dough and fresh seasonal toppings. Bonci's bread is made with the same flour and yeast as his pizza and this is available for purchase too. There's craft beer her too to provide the perfect pairing to the most perfect pizza slice. METRO: Cipro. (+ 39 06 3974 5416)
Unlike real roman pizzerias, Emma is open during the day. Every day and every night for that matter. Part of the famous Roman bakery group, Roscioli, you can bet the focus here is on quality. In a large and modern dining space, smack bang in the center (just a few minutes walk from Campo de Fiori), Emma is also a trattoria with all your roman classics on the menu. All your regular pizzas make the list too but with a few gourmet add ons and the wine list is extensive. The great thing about Emma is that it's great for large groups and it's unique because they take reservations (most pizzerie in Rome don't). Tram: 8, Bus: 87, H. (06 6476 0475)
I Supplì
This hole-in-the-wall take-out joint is a Trastevere institution. Suppl? were the poor man's dish created to recycle old risotto rice, and happily delicious too. While many other places sell bland fried balls in the name of suppli, these are the real thing. Join the queue and don't expect to linger long in indecision. Their pizza al taglio is cooked the old way, is delicious and crispy thin. The mushroom is great but the pizza marinara (fresh tomato and garlic) is the real stand out. They also serve up different pasta dishes each day including the traditional gnocchi with tomato sauce on a Thursday. (06 5897110)
This popular pizzeria located in the cuore of Trastevere is one of the best when it comes to serving up that perfect Roman pizza: light, thin and crispy crust. It's extremely sought after not only by tourists but by locals themselves. For years, Romans have been calling this pizza joint "l'obitorio" (the morgue) and "ai marmi" because of its characteristic long marble table tops. Aside from the pizza being so good, locals also come here to devour their famous supplì and fritti as appetizers. Their pizza is certainly not the cheapest by any means, but is absolutely reliable and consistent. Rest assured, you will always eat good here every single time. TRAM: 8. BUS: H. (06-5800919)

Erie man wants probation reprieve
More than two decades ago, an Erie County judge sentenced Charles Edward Fiero to state prison followed by 29 years of probation that the judge said was designed to ensure oversight of Fiero until he was a "very old man."
Fiero posed no danger when on his medication and sober, the judge, the prosecution and the defense agreed at Fiero's sentencing in 1993.
But on one September day in 1992 while suffering a mental health crisis and drinking alcohol, Fiero led police on a wild chase on a stolen construction vehicle through Wesleyville and Erie that ended with one Erie officer severely injured and Fiero shot in the face.
"You can control this by taking your medication and staying away from alcohol," Judge Roger Fischer said as he sentenced Fiero to two to 10 years in state prison and 29 years of probation on charges, including attempted homicide.
Fiero, out of state prison since 1994 and 100 percent compliant with his mental health treatment and probation requirements, says he is ready to move forward without any more supervision.
Fiero, now 58, appeared Wednesday in Erie County Court for a quiet, brief hearing before Judge William R. Cunningham. The judge is weighing a request filed by Fiero to release him from the remainder of his probation, which is not scheduled to end until June 2032. Cunningham issued no immediate ruling.
All assembled -- Fiero's case manager at Stairways Behavioral Health, an agent from state probation and parole, and the Erie County District Attorney's Office -- said they had no objection to Fiero's release from probation supervision.
Assistant District Attorney Matthew Cullen said the prosecution only wanted to be sure the victims received the restitution they are owed and that the community remains safe.
We will "defer to the court," he said.
Police said Fiero's crime spree on Sept. 29, 1992, began when he went to the Pennsylvania Lottery Office at West 16th and Poplar streets and tried to claim $5 million with a bus ticket. A short time later, police said, Fiero stole a payloader from Gindy's Mobile Housing, 4004 Buffalo Road, and a chase ensued. After it ended, then-Erie police Sgt. Jack Hines was seriously injured and Fiero lay in a hospital bed for six weeks suffering from gunshot wounds.
After his release from prison, Fiero relapsed only once, in 2004, when he drank alcohol. Otherwise, he has kept all his appointments and taken his prescribed medications, his Stairways case manager, Jessica Peterman, told Cunningham.
"He is the most reliable client I have ever worked with," Peterman said.
Fiero has his own apartment, takes medication daily and once-a-month injections that are monitored by Stairways staff. He plans to continue the treatment whether or not he is on supervision.
"I have been doing it for the last 20 years," he said. He noted he has won two awards for his recovery efforts: the Hope is Real award from Stairways in 2000 and the Courage to Come Back award from the Sisters of St. Joseph in 2002.
After the hearing, Fiero said he does not mind state supervision, which involved a once-monthly visit from a probation agent. He just does not want to be a 78-year-old grandfather and still on probation, he said.
"I am 100 percent better," he said. "I don't plan on giving that up. God gave me a second chance."

"We have to drill from the beginning how important it is to work hard because the season comes up really fast. That's one of the biggest regrets I've faced in basketball and softball, not coming out strong in the beginning. You take it too lightly, and you look back on it and wish you would have worked harder."

"The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins."
"When we love anyone with our whole hearts, life begins when we are with that person; it is only in their company that we are really and truly alive."
"We had a much better meet today than we had two weeks ago. The hard work is beginning to pay off. We're a young team and I hope some of them are beginning to believe in themselves and what they are capable of doing."

BOSTON — School bus service for Boston Public Schools (BPS) has resumed after drivers who went on strike earlier this week have returned to work.
As SBF reported on Tuesday, about 300 drivers who serve the school district and are members of United Steelworkers of America Local 8751 walked off the job. The action was thought to be connected to the union's opposition to changes being made at the district's transportation department by contractor Veolia Transportation.
The disruption in service impacted nearly half of the 33,000 students who receive yellow bus service.
On Tuesday afternoon, BPS said that Mayor Thomas Menino, Interim Superintendent John McDonough and Veolia were taking several actions immediately, including filing an immediate injunction to compel drivers to return to work.
The Associated Press (AP) reports that a federal judge turned down Veolia's request to force the drivers back to work.
Now, the district reports that all routes are expected to run normally on Thursday afternoon, and parents were encouraged to use the "Where's My School Bus?" app at schoolbus.bostonpublicschools.org to check the status of their bus, or call the transportation hotline at (617) 635-9520.
The drivers' union told AP that drivers agreed to return to work after Veolia agreed to meet with the union on Wednesday to discuss grievances.
Officials said that schools opened one hour early on Thursday morning to help parents drop off their children, but schools will be dismissed at their regular times.
The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority is continuing to offer free rides to any BPS student. Children under 11 must have an adult with them.
In addition, the Boston Police Department and Boston Centers for Youth & Families continue to coordinate closely with the transportation department to ensure safe drop-offs and pickups.
The district noted that it does not have confidence that service will continue every day, and parents were encouraged to have alternate plans in place.
Automated phone calls will be sent in the event of a service disruption.

|Hightower High School
Hightower High School is a secondary school (grades 9-12) located at 3333 Hurricane Lane, Missouri City, Texas, United States, adjacent to The Fort Bend Parkway Toll Road.
Hightower is administered by Fort Bend Independent School District and its mascot is Poseidon, but they are known as the Hightower Hurricanes.
Hightower serves parts of Missouri City. The school also serves the city of Arcola, the unincorporated area of Fresno, the neighborhood of Lake Shore Harbour, which is located in the extraterritorial jurisdiction of Missouri City. In addition, Hightower previously served the master-planned community of Sienna Plantation and the unincorporated area of Juliff.[citation needed]
The school is named after Lockhart Valentine (L.V.) Hightower, a former principal in the district.[1] Hightower had served as an American football coach for Sugar Land High School.[2]
Hightower opened on August 13, 1998 and was dedicated on October 11 of the same year.[3] The $35 million school campus, when opened, had fewer than 600 students and 50 teachers. The school only served Freshmen and Sophomore classes during its first year.[4]
Debbie Dunlap was the first principal. She said that her style of managing the school was "to be supportive. I just let the teachers do their jobs."[4] Todd Spivak of the Houston Press said that Dunlap "was hailed for assembling a staff that some say included the best high school teachers in the Houston area" and that the school "quickly gained a reputation for academic excellence and became a destination school for veteran teachers."[4] Dunlap left her position in 2003 so she could work for a teacher certification company.[4]
Patricia Paquin became the next principal. Many of the teachers that were at the school during Dunlap's term as principal left during Paquin's term. During each year of Paquin's term, until 2006, between 35 and 55 teachers left. Todd Spivak of the Houston Press said that many teachers believed that Paquin micromanaged too closely.[5]
In the 2005-2006 school year, Paquin gave over 1,800 suspensions. Spivak said "This would appear to indicate the work of a strict disciplinarian. But many teachers and parents say student behavior at Hightower is getting only worse, with fights breaking out on a regular basis."[5]
Pavlos Karnezis, a 12th grade honors student who was sent to jail and later expelled from school for bringing a knife to class in November 2005.[6] Paquin could have chosen lighter stipulations for Karnezis' expulsion. Despite the fact that teachers had vouched for his character, Paquin had chosen the most severe punishment possible, sentencing him to a boot camp.[4] Karnezis' parents, Thomas and Kathy, fought and had the entire expulsion decision overturned in 2006, allowing Karnezis to return to class.[7]
Viretta West was principal from 2006 to 2016. The current interim principal is Frederick Richardson.
By 2006 Hightower had over 2,600 students and 140 teachers.[4]

Hightower High School, in 2006, was one of the district's only two high schools with block scheduling. Todd Spivak of the Houston Press said during that year that the school "is considered the most innovative of the district's seven public high schools".[4] As of the 2015-16 school year, the school went to a normal 7- period schedule.
Hightower has specialized academies that offer specialized education for gifted students.[4]
The Medical Science Academy] allows motivated students meet academic challenges and have opportunities to explore world class medical facilities. Courses such as Medical Terminology, Medical Ethics, and much more help to form the basis of knowledge for a medical career. Also, a Medical Science Internship is offered in which students may develop a hands-on experience of the environment in a hospital through volunteer activity.
The Digital Media Academy] allows students to focus on using the computer as a creative tool. Classes are designed to teach technical proficiency in a broad range of software while encouraging innovative design.Graduates from the Graphics & Digital Media strand have the skills to create still graphics, animations, and interactive media using industry standard software. Many specialized courses are available for the many different areas of graphical production.
The Digital Media Academy] also offers students with the opportunity to create masterpiece media productions. Students will be able to experience hands-on activities that resemble realistic media. Courses allow students to use real world equipment and professional programs to create their works. Also, students are able to assume the roles of professionals and direct their own news-broadcasting channel known as HTV. The academy is now joined together in one academy with the Telecommunications Media Academy as the Digital Media Academy.
In 2006 Todd Spivak of the Houston Press said that Hightower's athletic facilities were "state-of-the-art" and "rival those of some colleges."[4] Hightower is adjacent to the District owned Hall Stadium and Hopson Field House, resulting in a decrease of transportation for football games.
As of February 1, 2016, Hightower is one of the 8 6A schools in the District. In UIL terms, they are in district 6A-20, alongside Austin, Bush, Clements, Dulles, Kempner, Ridgepoint, and Travis High Schools, all of which are Fort Bend.
Hightower's Varsity team has been district champs for 3 straight years, 2013,14, and 15.
Student bodies[edit]
In 2006, 75% of the school's student body was African American and Hispanic.[4]
In 2006, Hightower qualified 16 students for the National HOSA competition in Anaheim, of which all 16 placed top 4 or higher in their respective categories.[8] In addition, 2 students qualified for the FBLA national competition in Nashville, Tennessee.
In 2007, Hightower High School qualified 31 students for the National HOSA Conference in Orlando, Florida, the most out of any school in the nation. They will compete in mid-June, 2007.
In 2008, Hightower High School qualified 38 students for the National HOSA Leadership Conference in Dallas, Texas. The team earned one gold, nine silver and eight bronze medals. Team members Jonathan Vo and Matthew Lei were also named to the mastery level of the Kaiser Permanente Medical Current Events Roster based on their placement in the top 10 in the United States.[9]
In 2010, Hightower High School qualified 34 students for the National HOSA Leadership Conference in Orlando, Florida. The team earned 2 gold, 4 silver, and 2 bronze medals along with 15 other finalists that placed top 10 or higher.[10]
Hightower High School originally had a Robotics team, which has placed in several local and statewide competitions.[11]
On the final week of 2015 (Dec 27-Jan 1), the Hightower High School "Hurricane" Marching Band was invited to perform at the 2015 Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl on New Year's Eve, including a mass band, parade, and other competitions. They returned with (in Category 3) 3rd place Silver for field show, 1st place Gold for marching percussion, Honorable mention for parade, and Best Drum Major award.

In Obama's world, our daughter's happiness depends upon having these options at their disposal, literally and figuratively. Because love, and the sneaky way it has of showing up whenever a baby is born and then complicating everything, (because it is meaningful and real) is an insufficient vehicle for the fulfillment of women, and their self-actualization.
Arise, daughters of America, and build your dreams upon the slaughter of your progeny; some say the fullness of our humanity was built upon the flesh and blood of one woman who said "yes"

Woman cited for drunken drivingOctober 07,2013
Woman cited for
drunken driving
ROYALTON A Bethel woman escaped injury, but not a criminal citation, following an early-morning accident that destroyed her car Sunday on North Road.
State police, who were summoned to the scene of the one-car crash by 23-year-old Sarah Goobic shortly before 4 a.m. Sunday, said they later arrested Goobic for drunken driving.
According to police, Goobic lost control of the 2005 Chevrolet Cobalt she was driving and the car went off the road and overturned. It was destroyed, police said.
Goobic, who police said was unhurt, called for assistance from a nearby home and informed police of the accident.
When they arrived at the scene, police said they determined Goobic had been driving under the influence of alcohol and took her into custody. She was later released on a citation to appear at the criminal courthouse in White River Junction on Oct. 22.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER The League of Women Voters of Vermont will be taking part in National Voter...

An NBA season is a long, grueling affair, and one that few players can traverse without a few bumps and bruises along the way. Some players take bumps in the right direction, while others see their production unexpectedly drop.
The Utah Jazz roster is no exception to this rule. More than one player has seen his stock rise or fall as we near the halfway point of the 2012-13 season.
So which Jazz players have either underperformed or exceeded expectations in the early going?

I only hate when it involves deeper facial customization like eye shape, chin depth, etc, because once I see my character in a cutscene, I'm like, "wtf did I do to her nose?"
The end result is me deleting the character and starting over.

Anticipating the arrival of "Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn" on August 27th, 2013. {Excitement} {You can have this!}
xenosaga123 3 years ago#3
well the customization will be deep, but simple enough that you don't have to tweak a dozen sliders to make a nice face. there will be lots of face presets to choose from I think, so that helps.
malicemizerfan 3 years ago#4
I spend massive amounts of time on my first character(sometimes up to a full hour-two), then usually end up abandoning that one once I figure out I picked the wrong class, and after that, I make a couple changes to the presets and go with those from then on.
luckily, I need not worry about picking the wrong class in xiv.
Ah, beef jerky. Manliest of all snack foods!
Like all online games I play.
Blast through the creation to get a name I want.
Then delete and spend time making to my liking, whilst knowing that once I do all that my name will be available.

I'm glad this game doesnt use those stupid slider meters. Those things are my bane. You nose is slightly off, tweak it, and now your whole face looks out of place.
Dark Souls, and White Knight Chronicles were probably the longest I spent in creators. I'd make the character, get ingame, and realize they looked mentally challenged or looked out of place compared to ingame characters.
And nothing is worse than finishing all of that perfectly, only to realize every single name you wanted is taken <_<. I need to plan out now what names I want to go after, so I don't waste time on the spot if one gets taken.

I know it won't happen but I wish SE would go ahead and allow fans to download the character creator now so people (if they wanted to) could spend their free time this summer messing around with it as they await XIV relaunch/release. You could design your character(s), save and tweek the designs, and then upload the finished character(s) into the actual game upon release, only leaving the character name for the full game release.
Saints Row the Third did this by putting out a character creator demo players could play around with before the game was released and you could upload that demo's save into the game.

Facebook Will Greatly Reduce Viewers On The Television Newschannels 1 commentMar 18, 2013 1:12 PM | about stocks: FB
As Facebook's audience is growing into all age categories, there will be a tremendous reduction in audiences viewing news broadcasts on television and reading newspapers.
The fact is news gets old or grows stale quickly.
I don't read the newspapers or watch the news channel anymore.
Why would I, or anyone else for that matter, want to hear old news being repeated on a television by a newscaster and being interrupted by ads, when I can read it as it happens on Facebook when its uploaded instantly after it occurs.
This about it. In the time it takes to put together a television broadcast and surely to print a newspaper, that news has to have happened many hours ago.
We live in a digital age. Why would you want to hear old news, when you could have read it hours ago when it happened, on your Facebook news feed.
This in particular will generate massive ad revenues for Facebook as they become the go to for people to read the news in real time.
I rate Facebook a strong BUY and I am long the stock.

Bill forces insurers to seek survivorsMarch 24,2013
Bill forces insurers
to seek survivors
MONTPELIER The Vermont House has passed a bill requiring life insurance companies to make a good-faith effort to locate beneficiaries after a policyholder dies.
House Speaker Shap Smith said that in too many cases, insurance companies make little or no effort to track down survivors and thereby avoid paying on a policy.
The bill awaits Senate action. It would require life insurance companies to maintain and monitor a Death Master File, a program that matches a person on the file and the Social Security number, name or date of birth of an insured annuity owner.
Smith said the bill seeks to ensure that when someone buys life insurance in the hope of providing security for loved ones, that actually happens.MORE IN Vermont NewsIf this hasnt been the worst year ever for truth in politics, I cant think of what was.

America and the Sea Award
The America and the Sea Award recognizes an individual or organization whose contributions to the history, arts, business or sciences of the sea best exemplify the American spirit and character. Presented annually by Mystic Seaport, the award honors and celebrates those who embrace the scholarship, exploration, adventure, aesthetics, competition, and freedom that the sea inspires.
Mystic Seaport will present its 2016 America and the Sea Award to Bob and Rod Johnstone – J/Boats. The Johnstones will receive the award Saturday, October 22 at a gala dinner held in their honor at the Museum. The gala will be the first and only dinner held in the Collins Family Gallery of the new Thompson Exhibition Building prior to its ongoing use to display exhibits.
The America and the Sea Award Gala is the single largest fundraising event for Mystic Seaport. Proceeds from the event benefit the mission of the Museum to inspire an enduring connection to America's maritime heritage. To purchase tickets or a table, or to inquire about corporate sponsorship or dockage for the event, please contact email@example.com or call 860.572.5365.
Nathaniel Philbrick: 2015
Mystic Seaport honored historian and author Nathaniel Philbrick with the 2015 America and the Sea Award. Presented annually by the Museum, the prestigious award recognizes an individual or organization whose contribution to the history, arts, business, or sciences of the sea best exemplify the American character.
Philbrick received the award October 14 at a gala held in his honor at the Metropolitan Club in New York City.
This year marked the 10th anniversary of the award. Past recipients include oceanographer and explorer Sylvia Earle, historian David McCullough, legendary yacht designer Olin Stephens, President and CEO of Crowley Maritime Corporation, Thomas Crowley, philanthropist William Koch, former Secretary of the Navy John Lehman, WoodenBoat founder Jon Wilson, yachtsman and author Gary Jobson, and maritime industrialist Charles A. Robertson.
"Like those recipients before him, Nat Philbrick's work helps to elevate one's understanding of the sea. With every work he publishes, his words speak to American history and they instruct us on our heritage in a very personal and approachable manner," said Steve White, president of Mystic Seaport.
Philbrick is closely linked to the island of Nantucket, where he moved with his wife, Melissa, and their two children in 1986. In 1994, he published his first book about the island's history, Away Off Shore, followed by a study of Nantucket's native legacy, Abram's Eyes. He was the founding director of Nantucket's Egan Maritime Institute and is still a research fellow at the Nantucket Historical Association.
In 2000, Philbrick published the New York Times bestseller, In the Heart of the Sea, which won the National Book Award for nonfiction. The book is the basis of the Warner Bros. motion picture "In Heart of the Sea," which is directed by Ron Howard and scheduled for release in December, 2015. The book also inspired a 2001 Dateline special on NBC and the 2010 two-hour PBS American Experience film "Into the Deep" by Ric Burns.
The author's next book, Sea of Glory, was published in 2003 and won the Theodore and Franklin D. Roosevelt Naval History Prize and the Albion-Monroe Award from the National Maritime Historical Society. The New York Times bestseller Mayflower, a finalist for both the 2007 Pulitzer Prize in History and the Los Angeles Times Book Award, won the Massachusetts Book Award for nonfiction.
