Pyroluria and Orthomolecular Psychiatry
I have previously written about psychomotor patterning – an alleged treatment for developmental delay that was developed in the 1960s. The idea has its roots in the notion of ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny, that as we develop we progress through evolutionary stages. This idea, now largely discredited, was extended to the hypothesis that in children who are developmentally delayed their neurological development could be enhanced if they were made to progress through evolutionary stages. Children were put through hours a day of passive crawling, for example, with the belief that this coax the brain into a normal developmental pathway. The treatment was studied extensively in the 1970s showing that the treatment did not work.
However, those who developed this treatment, Doman and Delecato, did not want to give up on their claim to fame simply because it didn't work and the underlying concepts were flawed. For the last 40 years they have continued to offer the Doman-Delecato treatment for all forms of mental retardation, surviving on the fringe, all but forgotten by mainstream medicine (except by those with an interest in pathological science).
I was recently asked to look into the claims for a disorder known as pyroluria, and what I found was very similar to the history of psychomotor patterning. There was some legitimate scientific interest in this alleged condition in the 1960s. Studies in the 1970s, however, discredited the hypothesis and it was discarded as a failed hypothesis. The published literature entirely dries up by the mid 1970s. But the originators of the idea did not give up, and continue to promote the idea of pyroluria to this day.

text: Chromium supplements have become popular for weight loss and blood sugar support because chromium has been shown to play an important role in the metabolism of glucose, making it an integral part of the overall metabolic process. It has been shown that chromium supplements for blood sugar are best absorbed by the body when taken in the form of chromium picolinate. Picolinate is a naturally occurring amino acid metabolite, which helps chromium readily enter into the body's cells, making it easier for the insulin to do its job effectively. Other forms of the mineral, such as Chromax 2000 Chromium Picolinate, are known to support cognitive function in aging adults.

Onorato, Airport Authority Announce New Frozen Food Facility
LSG Sky Chefs to expand operation and add jobs at Pittsburgh International Airport
MOON TWP. — Allegheny County Chief Executive Dan Onorato and the Allegheny County Airport Authority today announced that LSG Sky Chefs, the world's largest airline caterer, is expanding its deep-frozen food operations worldwide and has chosen Pittsburgh International Airport as the location of its first deep-frozen food manufacturing facility in North America.
"LSG Sky Chef has been an important tenant at Pittsburgh International Airport, and this expansion of service is an exciting opportunity for our region," said Onorato. "We're very pleased that LSG Sky Chef is expanding operations here and adding jobs. It's a testament to our world-class airport and the commitment we've made to develop the airport corridor."
The manufacturing facility will be located in 20,000 square feet of LSG Sky Chefs' existing customer service center on airport property and is expected to create 21 new jobs in 2008 and an additional 37 new jobs by 2010. The facility is expected to open in early 2008 with an initial capacity for producing approximately 11 million meals annually, with room to double that production over time.
"Pittsburgh International Airport has the capacity for growth and the perfect proximity for direct shipment of frozen foods," said Allegheny County Airport Authority Board Chairman Glenn Mahone. "Our location offers access to 63 percent of the national industrial output by overnight truck or one-hour flight. This is just one of Pittsburgh International's great advantages for cargo and aviation-related industries."
LSG Sky Chefs chose Pittsburgh International Airport because of the company's history with the airport, as well as Pittsburgh International's proximity to major international gateway airports on the East Coast and in the Midwest, which enable direct shipments of deep-frozen foods to those airports.
"We are committed to becoming the leader in the deep-frozen foods segment of the airline catering industry, and Pittsburgh International Airport proved to be a great strategic match for our operating needs," said Pat Berkelbaugh, Senior Vice President of Sales & Services for LSG Sky Chefs' North America Region. "We've enjoyed a long, positive relationship with Pittsburgh International Airport, and we're glad to be adding jobs at our Pittsburgh facility."
LSG Sky Chefs is pursuing this strategy to meet increasing demand for frozen-food meals in the airline industry, driven by cost, quality and consistency for such meals. In addition to growing demand in North America, LSG Sky Chefs announced a joint venture earlier this year with China National Aviation Group Ltd. to establish a frozen meal plant facility in Qingdao, Shandong Province, China, to meet growing demand for deep-frozen foods from airlines in the Asia/Pacific region. These additions will enable the company to build on its already considerable expertise in frozen-food production acquired through its subsidiary, LSG-Sky Food, which opened in Germany in 1994.

Pay attentionJune 18,2013
The dilemma of our devices was the topic of the commencement address at Middlebury College delivered this year by novelist Jonathan Safran Foer. Technology celebrates connectedness but encourages retreat, he said in The New York Times adaptation of his speech.
Preserving our humanity in the age of technology has become a theme at commencement this year. Earlier, journalist Leon Wieseltier, at Brandeis University, defended the importance of the humanities at a time when science and technology are looked to increasingly as a solution to our social ills.
Foer is the author of the novels Everything Is Illuminated and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. In his remarks he described the ways our electronic devices encourage us to retreat from human contact. He was at a restaurant, he said, when he saw a young girl sitting nearby having a tearful phone conversation with her mother. He might have intervened to offer help or comfort. And yet he was preoccupied, scrolling through his contact list on his own phone. It would not be easy to reach out to the girl. Even to decide whether to reach out would be hard. It was easier by far to preoccupy himself, not think about it.
In these small decisions our habits form. The flow of water carves rock, a little bit at a time, he said. And our personhood is carved, too, by the flow of our habits.
In Foers view, each advance in communications technology has reduced communication, made it cruder, less full, less real. The telephone enabled us to communicate while we were at a distance. It was more convenient, but it was a less demanding, less complete form of communication than speaking face to face. Answering machines enabled us to communicate by phone without actually having to speak with anyone. Email allowed us to avoid the whole business of using ones voice. Texting has put a premium on brevity to the extent that communication shrinks to a few words. Each of these was a declension, according to Foer, a diminishment of the form for which it became a substitute.
But as Foer said, we began to prefer the substitute. It allowed us to escape the responsibility of actually paying full attention to the other person. Each step forward has made it easier, just a little, to avoid the emotional work of being present, to convey information rather than humanity, Foer said. The problem with accepting with preferring diminished substitutes is that over time, we, too, become diminished substitutes.
Foer quoted Simone Weil, who wrote, Attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity. Attention to the other is what we are losing.
To look at and see the full humanity of the other could be a way out of the atmosphere of animosity and division that seems so pervasive today. Much has been said about how, more and more, Americans are ghettoizing themselves, living with their own kind, speaking with and listening to their own kind, in a cycle that is bound to reinforce ones thinking and to calcify biases.
Would Trayvon Martin have found himself in a fatal encounter with George Zimmerman if the white Zimmerman were accustomed to living among black people? Its not just our devices that are isolating us. It is our fear.
Foer said that all of us can use attention, a kind word, empathy from others. There is no better use of a life than to be attentive to such needs, he said.
The human story is something each of us can tell because each of us lives it. It is also something each of us can be attuned to hearing if we are willing to listen. The human story is the substance of the humanities, which was the topic of Wieseltiers speech at Brandeis. The human story is also what we are living in the flesh every day among the people who make up the flesh-and-blood world around us. The prevalence of the devices that distance us from the flesh and blood is what has prompted these writers to issue their appeals that we pay attention to what is human.MORE IN EditorialsIdeologues and partisans work from the outcome backward.

A 12-year-old girl died from "cold-like" symptoms back in February, according to Richmond Heights police, but months later, authorities are focusing on the girl's parents in connection with her death.
Randy Jones, 41, and Carissa Jones, 44, were indicted by a Cuyahoga County grand jury on Nov. 27.
The Knollwood Trail couple is facing charges of involuntary manslaughter, endangering children and permitting child abuse.
"It saddens me because I love children. I would never let a cut or infection ever be untreated," said Stachie Campbell, a neighbor.
Richmond Heights authorities told WJW the girl had a wound that went untreated for weeks and developed into pneumonia.
"It's, like, so sad. I'm really hurt by that, especially when someone lives right across the street from me," Campbell said.
"You don't have a child stay there and just suffer like that," she went on.
The couple is scheduled to be arraigned on Dec. 13.

Fantasy Guru Daily: 6/13/11
Things are definitely looking optimistic on the labor front, but with those meetings taking place in private, we will continue to focus on the news that directly relates to what happens on the field.
Titans will stick with Britt, could see Collins return … Last week was not one to remember for WR Kenny Britt. He avoided serious legal ramifications by pleading to a lesser charge stemming from car-chase incident that took place in April and had to pay a small fine. However, just one day later, he was arrested and charged with obstruction, tampering with evidence, and resisting arrest after officers in New Jersey saw what they thought was marijuana in his hand. Britt is once again expected to avoid any serious charges, but the Titans are not expected to let him off easy although they do consider him the best player on the team outside of RB Chris Johnson. Speaking of the Titan O, QB Kerry Collins, currently a free agent, has an expressed an interest in returning to the team in the right situation, saying, "If it makes sense [...]

In Search Of...School Bell Choir
Meet the kids in Blair-Taylor's amazing Bell Choir!
Walk into any high school and It's very common to hear the sounds of a vocal music choir. But walk down the halls of Blair-Taylor High school and you may hear something totally unexpected.
This school is home to one of the very few 'school organized' bell choirs and it was started three years ago by band director Karla Hulne. "I actually wrote a piece for our drum line and thought it would be neat to include some hand bells on one of the pieces. One of my students mentioned their was a set in town. So I contacted the Lutheran Church and they mentioned they weren't being used and any time we needed to borrow them - we could."
And that gave Hulne the idea - what if they 'borrowed them' indefinitely?? She asked and the church happily agreed. "The tables are theirs, the cushions, the bells. They even have some music they're going to let us borrow as well."
They had the equipment and the students soon followed. "I really likes band and our church had a bell choir and when I found out about this, I wanted to be in it."
"The students here are so willing to put themselves out there and try new things. I wasn't really concerned that we won't have the numbers and obviously we have plenty of kids!"
They rehearse at seven in the morning, three days a week. "The mornings are tough."
But if just one person is gone, the whole choir is impacted. "We're all one instrument instead of individuals." " There's no hiding. I'm band, if you don't know your trumpet part, the person next to you might know it. But here, if one person isn't functioning or misses a cue it throws everybody off."
"It's amazing to see where they come from to where the end product is. But when it comes together, it really is magic. To see them working in time, working in cooperation with each other to create a piece that brings happiness to so many people. It's really remarkable. I'm so proud of them."
"People love to hear it, so what better time of the year to spread some joy."
"I really think bells bring joy to people above all things."

We need this win tonight to stop the bleeding. Look for Amare to go hard at Lee and Riverside Ray to continue his nice play. Gallo needs to dominate and lets pray for an AR awakening.
Golden State Warriors(5-2) vs New York Knicks (3-4)
Tonight at 7:30pm ET
Welcome to the Official MSG....I mean KingStarbury3 Game Thread
We're in for a tough one tonight folks
The Warriors have been no joke
The **** needs to work on his stroke
All Chandlers wants to do is light up and toke (Cant say i blame him)
Over the last couple of games our team has been meltin
So please save us Amare and Raymond Felton
We need Douglas and Fields to be helpin
When it comes to Mosgov, someone needs to help him (work with him)
Enough with the poetry
Im KingStarbury3 but yall already know its me
arite, im gonna stop now
Steph Curry has been a beast and in my opinion the Warriors have been one of the top 3 most entertaining teams to watch to start this season.
Monta Ellis is listed as day to day. I dont think hes gonna play tonight, which gives us a chance to win this game. Hes averaging just under 28 points per game to lead the NBA and hes been very efficient in doing so.
The Warriors have some solid role players that have helped them get off to the fast start
David Lee is averaging over 12 points and 11 rebounds a game while playing his terry cloth defense, that means very soft
Dorell Wright....hes really stepped up his game this year and proven that he can do some of everything
Small forward Reggie Williams has been inconsistent to start the season, but hes some good games and the Knicks need to look to keep him under their radar.
Andris Be-a-b*tch has been a solid center for the Warriors so far this season
Now its time for me to break down our Knicks
Raymond Felton had too many turnovers against the Bucks but hes played with alotta heart and has shown leadership. Honestly, after having Duhon for 2 years Felton can do no wrong in my eyes. Hes passing the ball well. He'll get even better as we play more games.
Felton will have his hands full tonight matched up against Stephen Curry
I'm impressed with the potential of Landry Fields, however....I'm not that impressed with him as of right now. I think hes still got alotta things he can work on, like most players on our team. He shouldnt be starting for us and I cant wait til Azubuike comes back
Some Knicks fans consider Gallo to be a D Leaguer while other Knicks fans...excuse me, Gallo fans...see him as an all star. I dont see him as either, I think hes a role player. Gallinari is off to a slow start this year, perhaps because of trade rumors. I feel like with his shooting, he can really impact how good or bad we are. Hes gotta be consistent.
Well its safe to say that hes gonna need some time to learn how to play without Steve Nash. In the early goings, Stoudamire has been turnover prone and somewhat inconsistent but as time goes on he'll become more efficient. He should have no problem being efficient tonight against David Lee, who we all know doesnt play any defense.
If anyone on this team is gonna be referred to as a D leaguer, this is the guy. I like his potential, hes shown he can run the floor very well and block shots but hes got a long ways to go.
Our bench:
Toney Douglas has been inconsistent but I do believe that he'll get things together soon. Hes an extremely hard worker on defense and he can knock down the three.
Anthony Randolph did a nice job on the boards against the Bucks. His offense was shaky, but if theres anything good to take from that game, its Randolphs rebounding. Perhaps he could get a little bit stronger and play center for us someday
Ronny Turiaf....no homo but I have a man crush on him
Wilson Chandler has been off the past few games but I expect him to play good tonight.
In conclusion, I expect this to be a high scoring game but do not underestimate the Warriors defense, they have improved from last year surprisingly. Any time you add David Lee to a team you expect the opposite to happen. It must be because the other players are stepping up. If we're not knocking down shots tonight, Stephen Curry and the Warriors will blow us out no homo.
Before the game Ill be puffin on some listening to the song of the day

Riverside Ray Felton busting dimes on kats!
looks like me and Trillion are the biggest Felton stans on this site....lol im just playin trill, but its really nice having this guy instead of Duhoe
BTW, am I the only one that thinks Riverside Ray looks like Pac playing Bishop in Juice? Not Pac...Pac as Bishop. Something about his grin and mannerisms always makes me think of Juice...
We need to start the Riverside Ray nickname movement. Dope ass nickname IMHO.
In my opinion David Lee this night could take more than 15 rebounds for sure
Big game. For obvious reasons, but in how a win would likely come:
Gut check
Type game. And will showcase the effectiveness of D'ant's offensive wizardry, and if we can scheme up good enuff defensive schemes in crunch time.
Lee vs STAT has a lotta juice. If STAT gets son'd...turnovers...no boards...good but modest points....he is going to be roasted in a loss.
Still getting invalid player error on atdhe.net with latest flash player installed... wtf
Gallo is playing PF not Chandler!

Vt. woman killed in road-rage encounterBy WILSON RING
The Associated Press | September 27,2013Burlington Free Press Photo
Vermont State Police investigators work on the scene of a fatal shooting that occurred Wednesday night at 248 North Main St. in St. Albans. A Swanton man allegedly fired 11 shots and killed a Highgate woman.ST. ALBANS Police said a Swanton man, distraught after breaking up with his mistress, fired 11 shots and killed a different woman who had confronted him after he ran a red light.
Matthew Webster, 30, pleaded innocent Thursday to the shooting death of Anna Alger, 30, of Highgate, the day before in St. Albans. Authorities said the two didnt know each other, and described the fatal encounter as road rage.
Webster was held without bail after his arraignment on a charge of second-degree murder in St. Albans criminal court.
Police said Webster had just broken up with a woman with whom he was having an affair, and was followed by his wife who was making sure he ended the relationship. Webster told police he was carrying a gun because he planned to kill himself, court documents said.
On the way home from the breakup, with his wife following, police said, Webster ran a red light and was nearly struck by Algers car. Websters wife saw him run the light and called to tell him he had done so, court documents said.
Webster pulled over on North Main St. in St. Albans because he realized he was in no condition to drive, police said. He got out of the car, he told police, but didnt realize he still had the gun in his hand.
Alger had followed him after the near-collision and was yelling at Webster as she approached, police said.
Webster said his wife was watching as Alger charged like a six-point buck coming over a hill, Detective Benjamin Couture of St. Albans Police wrote in an affidavit.
Webster told police he shot Alger because he thought that would stop her. But he said she kept coming and he emptied the clip and reloaded, Couture wrote.
Investigators found 11 empty 9 mm shell cases on the road near where Alger was shot, the detective said.
Webster told police that after he shot Alger he tried to shoot himself, but the gun did not fire.
Minutes after the shooting, Webster was arrested nearby.
During Websters brief arraignment, Deputy States Attorney John Lavoie called the shooting an act of extreme violence.
It was a random act, Lavoie said. The defendant and Ms. Alger had no relationship whatsoever.
Algers family was in the courtroom during the arraignment. Several cried loudly while Lavoie described parts of the shooting. Afterward they declined to comment to reporters.
The charge against Webster carries a possible sentence of life in prison.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Rep. Peter Welch, D-Vt. Full StoryVermont Attorney General Bill Sorrell plans to join the U.S. Full StoryMONTPELIER Gov. Full Story

Trial of suspected Hariri assassins set to beginap file photo
The late former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri is shown here at a news conference.
BEIRUT The truck bomb assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri sent a sectarian tremor across the Middle East and set off years of upheaval in Lebanon, the consequences of which are still felt across the turbulent region.
Nine years later, the international trial of four Hezbollah suspects is finally set to begin.
With Sunni-Shiite tensions at an all-time high, exacerbated by the raging civil war in Syria, some fear a fresh outbreak of deadly violence because of a trial it had been hoped would help put an end to Lebanons long tradition of unsolved political assassinations.
Faith that justice would eventually prevail has faded over time. Many Lebanese believe the tribunal is politicized, and many involved in the investigation have died. None of the suspects have been arrested, and Hezbollah has vowed never to hand them over.
The suicide assassination with a ton of explosives that killed Hariri and 22 others on Feb. 14, 2005 was one of the most dramatic assassinations in the Middle Easts modern history, helping fuel sectarian divisions between Sunni and Shiite Muslims. Violence between members of the two sects has claimed the lives of thousands over the past years mostly in Iraq, Syria, Pakistan and Lebanon.
Hariri, who also held Saudi citizenship, was one of Lebanons most influential Sunni leaders, with wide connections in the Arab world and international community. Hezbollah, a Shiite group, is backed by Shiite Iran.
In the immediate aftermath of the assassination, suspicion fell on Syria, since Hariri had been seeking to weaken its domination of Lebanon. Syria has denied any role in the murder, but the killing galvanized opposition to Damascus and led to huge street demonstrations dubbed the Cedar Revolution that helped put an end Syrias 29-year military presence in its smaller neighbor.
Lebanon has a history of political assassinations for which no one has ever held accountable. In the emotional days following his death, Hariri supporters called for an international investigation, and a U.N.-backed court was established in 2009.
I think that for the first time since 1943, Lebanon is about now to discover the truth through an independent tribunal, said former Justice Minister Charles Rizk, referring to political killings since Lebanons independence.
The trial opens Thursday on the outskirts of The Hague, Netherlands. Four members of the Syria and Iranian-backed Hezbollah group were indicted in 2011 with plotting the attack, but have not been arrested. A fifth was charged late last year in the case and is also still at large.
Hezbollah denies involvement in the murder and the groups leader, Sheik Hassan Nasrallah, has denounced the court as a conspiracy by his archenemies the U.S. and Israel.
The start of the trial will be a historic day for Lebanon and international justice, the tribunals spokesman Martin Youssef told reporters in Lebanon last week.
Since Hariris killing, several people accused by anti-Syrian Lebanese politicians of having a role in the case have died.
Syrias Interior Minister, Brig. Gen. Ghazi Kenaan, died in his Damascus office in late 2005 about a month after speaking with investigators in Hariris assassination. Syrian officials said he shot himself to death, but some in Lebanon believe he was killed. Kenaan ran Lebanon at the height of Syrias dominance of the country for two decades until 2003.MORE IN Wire NewsMADISON, Wis.

Attendees at the spring music festivals here in Beijing were a colorful lot.
China's leading independant record label, Modern Sky, sponsored the Strawberry Festival, which brought together some of the leading indie, punk and other rock and roll bands. Acupuncture Records was behind Intro, Beijing's main electronic music festival.
At Strawberry 95% of the bands and spectators were local and very hipsterish. The DJs at the electronic music festival were mainly foreign and the spectators were about half and half.
In many ways, the focus at both events was more on the fashion than the music, about which the spectators often did not always know a huge amount.
That said, many fans dressed in the same styles as their favorite bands, the most famous of which were Tang Dynasty, Hedgehog, the Carsick Cars, Queen Sea Big Shark, and Muma & Third Party, to name a few.
Cartoon figures like Superman were out as well as people dressed like Elvis Presley and Lady Gaga.
Strawberry was a combination of rock festival, circus, and fashion runway. The one thing that was missing from both Strawberry and Intro were drugs, though there was a bit of alcohol.

Updated at 4:15 a.m. ET on Nov. 5: ROME -- The suspect in the stabbing of a 19-year-old American student in the Italian capital Rome says he has no recollection of the events, officials said Saturday.
Reid Schepis, 20, told a judge Saturday that he didn't even want to go clubbing Halloween night before the Thursday morning stabbing, his lawyer told NBC News.
The victim, New Jersey-born Fabio Malpeso, is "doing much better and is awake and has already spoken to his parents and sibling," Police Chief Lorenzo Suraci told NBC News. "Doctors are more confident on his recovery now."
Malpeso was in critical condition after the attack, officials said.
Suraci said police hope to speak to Malpeso, who underwent surgery for stab wounds to his lungs and other parts of his body, when he recovers further.
Attorney Vincenzo Comi, who represents Schepis, also said he was told Malpeso is improving.
"He is obviously still under observation but he is awake and talking," Comi told NBC News. "He even asked about the situation and what is happening."
Earlier: Italy police say student stabs sleeping American friend while on drugs
Comi said a judge on Saturday confirmed Schepis' arrest and will decide soon on a defense request that Schepis be held under house arrest.
Comi said that Schepis told the judge that he "did not remember anything of the episode."
"As he spoke of the events leading up to the tragedy he was crying desperately and sobbing throughout," Comi said. "He kept saying how sorry he was. Every time Fabio's name was mentioned he would break down. He just couldn't explain the events."
Comi said Schepis went "against his will" with Malpeso and two unnamed young men to the club Atlantic, where some in the group drank alcohol and took drugs.
Schepis told the judge that it was the first time he had ever taken drugs, Comi said.
Schepis firmly denied buying the drug, Comi said. An unnamed friend among the foursome gave it to him, Comi said.
Schepis remembers seeing his friend collapse, Comi said. He said he panicked and became very agitated as he tried to think of how to help and recalls running to the bathroom, fetching a glass of water and throwing on his friend, Comi said.
Schepis said he then started feeling ill and faint himself, Comi said. From that moment on he has no recollection of going back to the house or any of the horrific events that took place there, he said.
Schepis "woke up in the police station cell."

"Reid is a good kid; he comes from a good family," Comi told NBC News. "Fabio and Reid were the best of friends. They were both in their second year of university but knew each other from before. Even their parents knew each other. This is another dramatic aspect of the whole tragedy. They were all friends."
"Reid is just a 20-year old kid who found himself in the middle of something he could never even have imagined," he said. "There was not a single sign that could have forewarned anyone of this tragedy."
Yara Nardi / F3 Press
Reid Schepis is taken into custody Thursday after allegedly stabbing fellow student Fabio Malpeso in Rome, Italy.
Authorities earlier said the motive for the early Thursday attack in an apartment that overlooks Rome's famous Colosseum was unclear. However, detectives suspect "drug- and alcohol-related delirium" might be a factor.
Schepis and Malpeso are both second-year students at John Cabot University, an American college in Rome, Comi said.
A third man, an Italian in his 30s named Andrea Rinaldi, suffered injuries to his arms and hands trying to defend Malpeso, and was also in the hospital, police said. Rinaldi is the boyfriend of Malpeso's sister, Federica.

The couple had returned to the flat early Thursday and had not gone to the club with the foursome, as earlier reported.
The two unnamed youths with Schepis and Malpeso had returned to the flat, too, but left before Malpeso was stabbed about 7:45 a.m., according to court testimony.

Montpelier planners revisit affordable housing
MONTPELIER At their most recent meeting this week, the Montpelier Planning Commission took up a familiar issue: affordable housing.
Polly Nichols, a member of the citys housing task force and housing director for the Vermont Housing and Conservation Board, presented her thoughts on the current state of affordable housing in Montpelier and some suggestions on how to increase the number of affordable dwellings.
Nichols said the definition of affordable housing is a residence that costs a household 30 percent or less of its income. For renters, housing costs include rent and utilities, while for homeowners the costs include mortgage, taxes and insurance.
According to the latest census data, Nichols said, the median household income in the city was just under $58,000. According to Nichols, the median income for homeowners was $69,000, while for renters it was $38,000.
Nichols said a household with median income in Montpelier can afford a $195,000 house, if it put 5 percent down toward the purchase. The median sale price of a Montpelier home, meanwhile, was $217,450 in the first half of last year, according to Nichols.
Without citing specifics, she said the median price of a house in Montpelier is higher than in the rest of the county, and she asserted that home prices are rising in Montpelier while falling elsewhere in Washington County.
Nichols also said that more than a third of homeowners and renters in the city pay more than 30 percent of their income, and that many even pay more than s50 percent of their income toward housing.
Its not all bad news, however, according to Nichols. She said if you include transportation costs, on average Montpelier residents pay 44 percent of their income on housing and transportation combined, with 40 percent of residents working outside the city.
Not surprisingly, the combined cost of housing and transportation in Montpelier is less than in a lot of the surrounding towns because we have a lot of jobs, she said. So, our housing is more expensive, but when you combine (housing and transportation), were actually doing a little better than some of the surrounding towns.
In terms of the age of residents, Nichols said more than half of Montpeliers homeowners and fewer than 15 percent of renters are older than 55.
I think it tells us that Montpelier is not very affordable, either for renters or homeowners, and that the situation is getting worse, Nichols said.
She said the homeowner population is older and renters tend to be young, but when they move into homeownership they are often doing so elsewhere. She added that the percentage of people living in Montpelier who are between 30 and 39 years old a prime age for buying a home, she said decreased by more than 15 percent between 2000 and 2010.
Were losing our younger population, perhaps in part because they cant afford to buy homes here, she said.
Nichols offered some suggestions on how to address the problem. She said one of the keys is housing density, or how many housing units can be built in a single development. She suggested housing density in Montpelier could be changed so a developer could put more units on a property than currently allowed, presumably making the work of going through the permit process more agreeable.
On the other hand, Nichols suggested the city could leave the current density restrictions in place and simply allow projects that meet the citys criteria to move forward as proposed by the developers. She said there have been many instances where a development was scaled back in part because of neighborhood opposition.
Nichols also suggested offering financial incentives to first-time homebuyers to keep them in the city, such as down payment assistance. She said the city created a housing trust fund around six years ago and that fund could be used for such a program.
Nichols also suggested a housing replacement ordinance, such as the one that Burlington has. Under such an ordinance, if a developer tears down existing housing or converts it to another use, the city would require that those units be replaced by the developer.
Commission Chairman Kim Cheney said the problem is that no one is spending the money to build anything in Montpelier, whether its subsidized or not. He said it seemed to him that market forces are hindering development in the city rather than anything the city itself is doing. Cheney said that if rents and housing values are high, it seemed counterintuitive to him that Montpelier wouldnt be a good place to build.
He asked Nichols if there was anything about the city that is deterring developers.
Nichols replied that a task force conducted a focus group with developers a few years ago. She acknowledged that some of the issues with development in Montpelier were market forces but said there was a perception in the home construction industry that it was difficult to get permits through the city. And she again touched on neighborhood opposition to development.
(Builders) felt like they could build in an outlying community and get a permit more quickly and maybe not have the kind of opposition that folks have encountered here, she said.
Commission member Jon Anderson said he once supported a housing replacement ordinance like the one in Burlington, because he was worried that there would be too much commercial space replacing housing in Montpelier. Now, he said, its not as much of an issue because hes hearing there is interest in developing housing downtown, particularly single-bedroom apartments in an attempt to attract single people.
Anderson suggested the city consider offering density bonuses, wherein a developer would be able to build more units on a piece of land than normal zoning allows provided the developer builds some of the units strictly for affordable housing.
He also suggested a type of density bonus where a developer who wants to build a big housing complex could set aside a piece of land for affordable housing but not be required to actually build the affordable housing, instead allowing for someone else to construct it later.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER A new report from a commission that studied the cost, availability and quality of...

It's replacement in the control room is now a monitor linked to a computer console no larger than a PlayStation. Goliad County recently purchased a monitoring system made by the Waco company, Sydaptic, which develops and distributes equipment for correctional facilities.
From the control room, jailers and deputies can now monitor all the doors, intercoms, lights and has the ability to control the time of inmate phone visitation, length of time the showers operate which eliminates flooding, the commodes which stops flushing of contraband and can control inmate phones.
Jailer's now use Sydaptic's SyncGuard system to monitor cell checks, which are made every 30 minutes or every hour. Jailer's have a hand-held remote control to swipe a radio frequency identification tag that is mounted outside the door of each cell. The information of the inmate's status is then relayed to the control room.
"We used to have a huge board and it had all kinds of wires on the back of it," Sheriff Kirby Brumby said. "We used to have to put a lot of things on paper. Now that we have this, we're able to pull up reports. We can do a better job of keeping track of what we're doing."
The commissioners court approved $138,450 for the new system in July 2013. The funds for the system came from the county's sale of the Goliad Air Park.
"Without a working control system, the jail cannot be used to house inmates," Brumby said. "The inmates would have had to be moved to another jail facility at a high cost to Goliad County. Again, thank you commissioners court."

Carolyn Landis & Edward Briganti
The bride and groom
photographs by Cary Hazlegrove
Avid sailors Carolyn "Carrie" Landis and Edward "Eddie" Briganti were introduced by the bride's father, who is also a sailor, in May of 2008. At that time, Mr. Landis and the groom were preparing to compete in the 2008 Newport-Bermuda Race out of Newport, Rhode Island. "Eddie's boat lost its mast and the next day he was asked to race on my Dad's boat," says Carrie. "They got to talking and my Dad mentioned he had a daughter who wanted to do more sailing and who was pretty cute, too."
The next day, Carrie received Eddie's e-mail address and a glowing report about him from her father. She reached out to him. Eddie thought she would become another sailing friend and that it wouldn't lead to anything romantic.Two weeks later, they met at the New York Yacht Club and the sparks flew.
In June of 2011, the couple went for a sunset sail aboard Dark Horse, the sailboat they race out of the Larchmont Yacht Club. When they were back at the mooring and had to put the sail away, Carrie asked for the sail cover but instead, Eddie came out of the companionway with the ring and proposed on bended knee.
The Reverend Paul J. Carling and the Reverend David Anderson officiated at the ceremony at St. Luke's Parish in Darien. A reception followed at the Larchmont Yacht Club. The newlyweds departed the reception by launch. Soon after, they began their honeymoon in Thailand and Cambodia.
The bride is the daughter of Cynthia and Steven Landis of New Canaan. A graduate of Mamaroneck High School and Trinity College, Carrie is in private banking for JP Morgan Chase in New York City.
The groom is the son of Karen and Al Briganti of Darien. He is a graduate of Darien High School and Bowdoin College, where he received an A.B. in government and economics. Eddie is currently a student at Columbia Business School, where he will receive his MBA in 2013.

Weekly Planet: Watching the house burnJune 08,2014
Sometimes scientific debates are not really scientific at heart. They are emotional debates, and they are about fear, the unknown, blame and change. Rational answers do not address emotional concerns. Welcome to climate change.
Popular media like to talk about the climate change debate, continually asking, Is it real? In the scientific world there is no debate. Yes, it is real. Yes, it is happening now. And yes, it is caused or accelerated by human activity. Over 97 percent of climatologists agree. End of debate.
Climate change deniers are kind of like flat-earth proponents: clinging to a disproved and obsolete explanation because thats what they believed in the good old days. Scientifically there is no debate that climate change is real and is happening now.
Some of the confusion is no doubt connected to the word theory, as in climate change theory. One definition of theory given by Merriam-Webster is indeed, an idea that is suggested or presented as possibly true but that is not known or proven to be true. That is what your mechanic means when he says, Well, my theory is that your fuel injector is shot. That is a theory that will be proven true or untrue when the car goes into the shop.
But the operating definition of theory in the case of climate change is another definition given by Merriam-Webster: the general or abstract principles of a body of fact, a science, or an art, as in music theory. Music theory is not a hunch waiting to be proven true or false; it is the relationship of the facts of music intervals, scales, keys, etc.
So it is with climate change. The facts are facts: global temperatures are rising. Polar ice caps are melting faster and faster and the trend is caused primarily by human-induced greenhouse gas emissions. Climate change is happening now. These are the facts.
Do we know all the facts? Of course not. The chain of cause and effect is far too elaborate for us to know all the possibilities and consequences. But the demand to know all related facts before taking any action is kind of like watching your house burn down and declaring, Im not going to put it out until I know what started it.
The original term global warming defined a measurable and factual global trend, but it did little to alert us to the true consequences of climate change. Deniers can point to the bitter cold temperatures of last winter and ask smugly, You call that global warming? The factual climactic change is that the Arctic jet stream bulged far south of its usual path bringing us frigid cold, but meanwhile global temperatures continue to rise. This is not theory. It happened.
So did prolonged and intense drought in the West and Southeast, record temperature readings, giant killer cyclones, superstorms, rising sea levels and jet streams changing course. These are not theories. These are facts. They are very frightening facts, and they make us feel powerless. How am I going to prevent tornadoes? The idea that I can do anything at all sounds stupid. The reaction becomes emotional.
Many people fear that the cost of acting to reducing greenhouse gas emissions is just too high. But the costs of not acting are even higher. This spring many California farmers were receiving just 5 percent of their typical water allotments. California produces about half the fruit, nuts, and produce grown in the United States. Half! Damage from Hurricanes Sandy and Katrina alone reached $175 billion. Irene isnt even a blip on that screen, yet we all know the damage cause by that storm.
Yes, there is still much unknown about the ultimate effects of climate change. But can we at least agree that the house is burning and we should act now?

Nates got some funny pics in this edition. On page 4 it looks like hes crying to the ref, "HE STOLE MY BALL WAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Zeebo has a really dirty jumpshot. If he doesn't kick you in the nuts, he knees you in the upper body. If he gets contact, then he acts like the defender initiated it. I thought they made it illegal to kick out your legs to try and get contact, especially when that contact is your foot with the defenders balls. But zeebo has a sick game. I ain't hatin on him.
DJ Augustin is sayin NO NASTY NATE!! YOU CAN'T HAVE MY FRUIT COCKTAIL!
Not to be a "dickrider" or "hypebeast" but those lebron X's look amazing with that heat uniform.
David west's & Rudy gay's hyperposite are too dope
i dont c how some of these players are playing in retro js. the tech is old and it seems like they would be uncomfortable to play in.
Plus if you think the newer shoe with the newer technology is always more comfortable than a predecessor, then I would disagree. Comparing my 2 most recent Jordan pick-ups, my bred 4s in my natural size of 11.5 feel way more comfortable than my olive 9s in a 12. I sized up, and the 9s still bug me in the toe area! The new tech and sizing-up still didn't make em feel good for me, but everyones different when it comes to comfort. I also have flat f!@#d up feet. I don't like the feel of the 9s. I love how the 10s feel, but I went with a 12 on those too. The 11s bug my toes in that area in a 11.5, so for the breds ima try and get size 12. The lebron 9s ran notoriously small. I could easily go up a full size in those. I love the tech in those, but I'm sure like me, a lot of people got their regular size on their first pair and they fit way too small on them.
Because shoes don't make your game. You do
@gsu4life07 Most are wearing retros just to look good on the court believe me, ill be the first to say that balling in retros does get uncomfortable really fast. and compared to today's technology found in the kds and kobes for an example they just dont compare comfort wise.

Versatile Eger adjusting to another line position
MORGANTOWN – Pat Eger jokes that one day, he may just snap the football to himself and then run downfield to catch the pass.
The senior is learning his fifth position in as many years this spring, switching to center during West Virginia University's spring practices. He has already seen action during his career at both right and left tackles and right and left guard.
But learning to play center has been anything but a snap.
"It's been rough," Eger said. "That first day, my snaps were all over the place. I've never really been used to having somebody 2 inches from my face as soon as I come off the ball, but I'm starting to get used to it."
Eger is hoping to replace the departed Joe Madsen at the middle of the interior line. The Mountaineers are looking to replace the middle three spots along the line and then have them come together as a group.
"We need to be able to look to our right and our left and be able to count on our brother to make the play next to us," Eger said. "People graduate every year. It's time for the younger guys to step up. If they were on the scout team last year, it's time to step up to the first or second string and show what they can do."
Coach Dana Holgorsen said he wants to put the best five offensive linemen out there to protect a new quarterback this fall. Eger, who is battling back from ankle problems this spring, said he accepted the challenge as a way to improve the Mountaineers.
"The coaches said, 'We want you to play center,"' Eger recalled. "I said OK. You have to do what you can to make the team better."
That includes coming early to practice and staying a little later to improve the accuracy of that quarterback-center exchange.
"Paul (Millard) and Ford (Childress) have been helping me every day, taking snaps before practice and staying after," Eger said. "I have to keep working on it every day to develop consistency."
Eger said he is finding it difficult to believe that this will be his last go-around in a Mountaineer uniform.
"Hearing about the coal miners and the toughness of the people in this state, I've tried to adapt that," he said. "This has been the best decision I've ever made in my life, to come to West Virginia."

State Board of Education
"District Showcase" Debuts as Regular Board Meeting Feature
Quincy's Irving School begins series of dialogues with State Board of Education
Immediate Release
September 18, 2002
For Information: 217/782-4648
Representatives of Quincy School District 172's Irving Elementary School today will describe successful strategies they have used to increase student achievement as the Illinois State Board of Education inaugurates what will from now on be the regular first item on its monthly meeting agenda – the "School District Showcase and Dialogue."
As the State Board addresses the challenge of how best to support local districts so that all Illinois students receive the best education possible, there is no better place to look for ideas and answers than in the communities whose children are learning, State Superintendent of Education Robert E. Schiller said.
"I believe in creating a two-way dialogue with people who have taken significant steps that help students meet and exceed the Illinois Learning Standards," Schiller said. "These conversations with the State Board members will allow local district people to explain their successful strategies for improvement and open the door for state level policy discussions about how their methods might be broadly adapted."
Irving Elementary has faced tough challenges in its efforts to improve achievement. The 2001 school report card shows the district with a poverty rate of 84 per cent. According to the school's principal, Carol Frericks, this year's report card will show a rate of 88 per cent.
Frericks, who is beginning her fourth year as principal, says staff and administrators have worked diligently for the past three years to reach this level of success: "We based our focus on a systems approach. By that I mean we looked at the families and students needs and began there. Our entire philosophy is based on doing whatever it takes to meet the needs of the kids."
She also attributes the school's success to the fact that their staff development model and school improvement plan are based on a needs assessment approach that is data driven. When she talks about assessment and data she is quick to point out, "I am not just talking about IGAP and ISAT results. We set these kids up for success and every part of the system was engaged. We knew that by the time these kids reached third grade their scores on ISAT were going to be good."
Carol Mickle, the district's Assistant Superintendent of Instruction, adds, "Yes, we have made a tremendous amount of change in three years and we made a lot of tough decisions along the way. We also recognize that without the extra state and federal funding we received through the Reading Excellence Act grant and the Summer Bridges grant, we would not have been able to reach that goal."
Joining Mickle and Frericks for Wednesday's dialogue
will be District Superintendent Joe Bocke, District 172 Board President
Herb Jackson, and teachers Rose Platt and Christie Dickens, who also serve
as Reading Demonstration Coaches who coach teachers in ways to develop
and improve reading skills.

McHENRY – High water levels for the Fox River pushed back work on Charles J. Miller Road that was expected to take place this week.
Work could start Monday, April 29, but if water levels remain high, work could be delayed another week, according to a release from the engineering firm, H.R. Green.
When the work begins, traffic delays, to occur between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m., could last up to 10 days.
The construction is part of a two-phase project that will widen the two-lane Charles Miller Road to four lanes and construct a second two-lane bridge over the Fox River to create two lanes of traffic in each direction.
Officials expect this phase of the two-part project to be completed by Oct. 15. Work began in November.
For information and to sign up for updates on the the project, visit charlesmillerroad.com. Emails will be sent to those that sign up alerting them where and when construction activities and potential traffic delays will occur.

Iowa Court: juveniles may seek new sentences
The Iowa Supreme Court on Friday opened the door for more than three dozen juveniles sentenced to long prison terms to appeal their sentences.
The court said the U.S. Supreme Court ruling last year that threw out automatic life sentences for juveniles may be applied retroactively to Iowa cases. The federal high court said automatic life sentences for juveniles violate the constitutional protection against cruel and unusual punishment. The court said states cannot automatically sentence juveniles to life and the sentences must be considered individually based on the age of the juvenile, the nature of the crime, and other factors.
After the federal court's ruling, Gov. Terry Branstad commuted the life sentences of 38 Iowa juvenile killers to 60 years before they could be eligible for parole.
Many are appealing, saying that is still too long and equates to life in prison.
Among those who appealed is Jeffrey Ragland, 44. He was sent to prison at age 17. In 1986 Ragland was with friends in a Council Bluffs parking lot when a fight broke out. Ragland's friend, Matthew Gill, struck another person, Timothy Sieff, 19, with a tire iron. Sieff died.
Gill and two other teens also present reached plea deals with prosecutors. Gill served three years in prison for a second-degree murder conviction and was released on parole.
Ragland, who said he hadn't killed anyone, refused to admit guilt as part of a plea bargain. He was tried and convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life.
Under Branstad's executive order he couldn't apply for parole until age 77. His life expectancy is 78.
A district court judge found in a resentencing hearing that Branstad overstepped his authority in commuting the sentences. Ragland was resentenced to 25 years in prison, which made him immediately eligible for parole. The state appealed.
The Iowa Supreme Court justices declined to weigh in on whether Branstad overreached saying "we do not believe it is necessary to traipse into this constitutional thicket."
The court concluded, however, the governor's automatic commutation to a 60-year sentence is essentially a life sentence and violates the U.S. court's ruling.
"Oftentimes, it is important that the spirit of the law not be lost in the application of the law," Chief Justice Mark Cady wrote for the seven-man court. "This is one such time."
The ruling upholds the 25-year sentence and Ragland may now seek parole.
In making the decision, the court sets a new standard in determining that long sentences are the functional equivalent of life without parole and must be considered under the new federal court guidelines.
While Justice David Wiggins agreed with the ruling, he wrote a separate opinion that said Branstad may have violated Iowa law which requires him to notify victims before the commutation and requires him to refer the matter to the Iowa Board of Parole before initiating the commutation.
"The record is devoid of any evidence showing the governor followed any of these legislative enactments," Wiggins said. "However, we need not reach these important constitutional issues today and leave them for another day."
Branstad spokesman Tim Albrecht said although the court struck down the 60-year mandatory minimum for juvenile murderers, "the court's decision today in no way affects the governor's constitutional responsibility for executive clemency, including commutation of life sentences," he said. "First-degree murder is an intentional and premeditated crime and those who are found guilty are dangerous and should be kept off the streets and out of our communities. Victims must never be re-victimized and can never be forgotten from the process."
He said the governor and lieutenant governor will work with the Legislature "to find a way to keep dangerous juvenile murderers off the streets and keep Iowans safe."
In two other cases involving juveniles, the court ordered new sentencing hearings applying the federal court's principles to sentences that are not life but lengthy.
In the case of Denem Null, Justice Brent Appel wrote for a majority of the court: "The prospect of geriatric release, if one is to be afforded the opportunity for release at all, does not provide a 'meaningful opportunity' to demonstrate the 'maturity and rehabilitation' required to obtain release and re-enter society...."
The court vacated Null's sentence and sent back to the district court judge for a new hearing.
Null, who is now 20, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and first-degree robbery for the 2010 shooting of Kevin Bell during a robbery at Bell's apartment. Null was sentenced to 75 years with the mandated requirement that he serve at least 52 years. That meant he would be eligible for parole until age 69. His life expectancy is 51 years.
The second case involves Desirae Pearson, who was 17 when she was convicted of two counts of first-degree robbery and two counts of first-degree burglary on May 4, 2011.
She was sentenced in July 2011 to 50 years in prison with a requirement to serve 35 years before she could apply for parole.
Justice Edward Mansfield, in a strongly worded dissent, said the majority opinion could open the door for resentencing for as many as 425 inmates serving time in Iowa prisons for offenses committed before age of 18. Most are serving lengthy sentences.
"We can now look forward to a flurry of new proceedings as the state, defense attorneys, and our own judicial system sort through the unresolved issues raised by the majority opinion," he wrote.
He said he would have upheld Pearson's sentence. He was joined by justices Thomas Waterman and Bruce Zager.

No, temporary bonuses never increase your daily abilities. Below are three sections relevant to charisma increases. They are all on page 554 and 555 of the CRB.
Ability score increases with a duration of 1 day or less give only temporary bonuses. For every two points of increase to a single ability, apply a +1 bonus to the skills and statistics listed with the relevant ability.
And for Charisma:
Charisma: Temporary increases to your Charisma score give you a bonus on Charisma-based skill checks. This bonus also applies to any spell DCs based on Charisma and the DC to resist your channeled energy.
Contrast with permanent:
Permanent Bonuses: Ability bonuses with a duration greater than 1 day actually increase the relevant ability score after 24 hours. Modify all skills and statistics related to that ability. This might cause you to gain skill points, hit points, and other bonuses. These bonuses should be noted separately in case they are removed.

darn. i am looking for a way to get my 5 cha stonelord paladin an emergency lay on hands if he needed to. :)
thanks gauss
The first level spell Hero's defiance will give you one:
The instant before you are reduced to 0 or fewer hit points, you can expend a use of your lay on hands ability to heal yourself as if you had used lay on hands, plus an additional 1d6 hit points.
If this healing brings your hit point total above 0 hit points, you do not fall, and may continue to act. If you have no more uses of lay on hands this spell has no effect.

Goldman touts invisible victories over Wall Street rivals
If a trade falls in the forest but doesn't generate revenue, does it make a sound?
Goldman Sachs Group President Gary Cohn insisted at a conference last week that his firm was expanding market share in fixed-income, currency and commodities trading. This is even though, as a portion of the aggregate trading revenue reported by big banks, Goldman's revenue has barely budged. Judged by revenue, Citigroup has increased its market share the most since 2011, according to a recent report from Credit Suisse Group. And the biggest gainers last quarter were Deutsche Bank and Morgan Stanley.
Mr. Cohn argued that since the current low-volatility environment depresses trading revenue, the normal way of gauging market share no longer works. Goldman's traders are winning more trades, he said, but "it's tough to see."
There is no direct way for investors to verify this. But it isn't implausible given the differing nature of banks' fixed-income businesses. Some have become flow monsters, focused on doing huge volumes of often lower-margin trades. Others, like Goldman, concentrate on areas that produce higher margins or would do so if volatility weren't so low.
Yet Mr. Cohn may be arguing a moot point—it is dependent on him being right that trading volumes and revenue will rise when markets "normalise." At that point, Goldman should reap the reward of a higher share of trades that produce higher margins. The risk is that rivals, even if they have given up on trades that don't make much, become far more aggressive if there is again money to be made.
In that case, today's market-share gains could end up being akin to a pig in a poke. Investors should insist on seeing what's in the bag before agreeing it is worth very much.

Can one person make a difference? From my view, the answer is a resounding "yes."
I work for TLS Veterans, a small but growing nonprofit organization. The agency got its start because Alan Belcher, a McHenry County veteran, had an idea to help homeless veterans and rallied other local veterans to make the idea a reality.
TLS, a founding member of the McHenry County Continuum of Care to End Homelessness, incorporated in 1996 with little more than sheer determination not to leave a fellow veteran behind.
As a nonveteran, I do not fully understand the evolution of this drive. My speculation is that it was somehow rooted in Mr. Belcher's experiences on a battlefield in Vietnam. Then, years later, fired by the number of homeless veterans he saw while working as Dorr Township supervisor in the mid-1990s.
His efforts probably won't make it into history books, but his determination to create TLS has had an effect similar to the one from Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s famous quote, "Each time a man ... acts to improve the lot of others .. he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope."
TLS is sending forth ripples.
TLS' flagship program is New Horizons, a transitional housing program that debuted in Hebron in 2001. It offers up to 24 months of housing to 35-40 homeless veterans each year, almost all with substance abuse disorders, and some with both addictions and moderate mental illnesses.
One young veteran who resided at New Horizons stands out in my mind. He enrolled in the program with a commitment to rebuild his life. While at New Horizons, he worked and went to college full time. Today, he's living in the community and completing his master's degree in social work, and he plans on pursuing a doctorate with the hope that, someday, he will develop policies for human service agencies like ours. A ripple went forth.
TLS started a Homeless Veterans Reintegration Program in 2009. Each year, HVRP helps at least 75 homeless veterans from Chicago's northwest suburbs to land a job that, hopefully, leads to a stable housing situation. Each month, about 145 low-income veteran families from our county attend a food distribution at TLS' headquarters in McHenry. Each veteran housed or veteran family fed sends another ripple.
Last October, TLS launched a Supportive Services for Veteran Families program that serves McHenry, Lake and north suburban Cook counties in Illinois and Kenosha County in Wisconsin. To date, SSVF has prevented five families from becoming homeless and helped 15 find housing after becoming homeless.
Here's one story: Mom and dad served overseas in the Marines during the Iraq/Afghanistan era. One son was living in North Carolina with his grandparents, but an 11-month-old son was living with mom and dad in their car. Mom, who had been a sergeant, was pregnant.
SSVF case managers were called. They placed the family in emergency housing in a hotel. On Jan. 1, the family, with the help of SSVF staff, moved into an apartment in Waukegan. Mom and dad have returned to school under the GI Bill. More ripples were created.
TLS is working with the McHenry County Veterans Assistance Commission, McHenry County Housing Authority, Lake-McHenry Veterans and Family Services and a representative from the Illinois Department of Employment Security to hold the McHenry County Veterans Stand Down from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesday at VFW Post 5040, 240 N. Throop St., Woodstock.
The Stand Down is anticipated to draw up to 90 homeless and at-risk veterans with the goal of providing them a warm meal, as well as services and referrals to help or keep them from homelessness. If at least one veteran becomes sheltered or is prevented from losing housing because of the Stand Down, another ripple goes forth.
In 2010, our country's leaders made a commitment to end veteran homelessness in the U.S. by the end of 2015. Since then, there has been a 25 percent decrease in the number of homeless veterans across the country.
It is without a doubt that TLS' efforts have contributed to this decrease and will help the country meet this bold goal. Thanks go to Alan Belcher, who stepped down as TLS executive director at the start of the year, for sending forth so many ripples from McHenry County.
• Barb Szul is a grant writer for TLS Veterans and invites the community to join the McHenry County Continuum of Care to End Homelessness. Call her at 815-679-6667.

Matrox Graphics, a company that is mainly oriented on niche graphics solutions for professional usage, unveiled Tuesday its Epica solution package, which enables multi-monitor capability on thin clients, a feature, which was never be available earlier.
"With the Epica series, Matrox continues to set the standard for providing multi-display graphics solutions by offering feature-sets never available before in thin-computing architectures. The Matrox Epica hardware and software is a total solution featuring advanced tools that will not only allow for greater screen real-estate but will also increase productivity and streamline work processes," said Al Vandenbussche, vice president sales & marketing, Matrox Graphics Inc.
Thin clients usually do not have their own operating systems and can use programs that are run on high-performance servers located maybe hundreds of kilometers away. Thin clients can use multiple servers at once to run several different apps, or access different types of data, which means, that it is virtually impossible to create multi-monitor environment using thin client.
But Matrox Epica solves the issues with multi-monitors and thin clients by installing additional software into servers and one of three Epica-series tiny graphics card, which can support two or four displays. Multi-monitor awareness by Matrox PowerDesk Epica enables large resolution windows from the server to behave in an independent manner even though the remote session natively provides a stretched (expanded) desktop.
Included with the purchase of every Matrox Epica graphics card (as a complimentary download), Matrox PowerDesk Epica software also allows professionals in thin-computing environments to take advantage of numerous multi-display controls including: how dialog and message boxes are positioned, how windows are maximized, and an assortment of other features that increase the user's efficiency. This special software utility, which is designed to be installed on the server, functions exclusively with the Epica series of graphics cards and is compatible with leading remote connection technologies: Microsoft RDP, Linux rdesktop and Citrix ICA for Windows.
The Matrox Epica series consists of the Epica TC2-Lite, Epica TC2 and Epica TC4 graphics cards, are specifically designed to meet the requirements of thin-client devices with low-profile, fanless and low-power consuming specifications. The Epica TC2-Lite is a dual monitor graphics card with digital resolutions of up to 2560x1024, while the Epica TC2, also a dual monitor graphics card, offers digital resolutions of up to 3840x1200. The Epica TC4 is a quad-monitor graphics card with digital resolutions of up to 6400x1200.
Matrox does not disclose pricing of the Epica products and advices potential customers to contact its sales department.

SeoulTech and Grand Valley partner in faculty exhibition
Posted on June 27, 2013
The ongoing partnership between the Departments of Art & Design at Grand Valley and Seoul National University of Science & Technology was celebrated in Seoul, during a joint faculty exhibit in May.
Works by 17 Grand Valley faculty members were exhibited with the works of more than 30 faculty members from SeoulTech during the 10-day event – the first to be held in the new College of Art & Design Museum at SeoulTech.
The opening ceremony began with a declaration of participation by Nam Koong Keun, SeoulTech president; Lee Tae Guen, SeoulTech Graduate School Dean; Chung Sung Kyun, SeoulTech Provost; Rho Mee Seon, SeoulTech Art & Design College Dean; Virginia Jenkins, GVSU Art & Design chair; Henry Mattews, GVSU director of Galleries and Collections; and Hoon Lee, GVSU Art & Design professor.
SeoulTech Dean Seon stated that the, "Exhibition started on a small scale, but a fruitful plan of collaboration will promote future exchange." Grand Valley Chair Jenkins said Grand Valley will host the next joint exhibition in the fall of 2016.
SeoulTech and Grand Valley signed a Memorandum of Understanding in 2008 through the efforts of Grand Valley Art & Design Professor Hoon Lee, a SeoulTech alumnus. Since 2008, there have been several faculty and student exchanges between both universities.
