The Web 2.0 Paper Trail Problem
Public officials question whether government social networking posts on external sites should be archived.
Social networking technologies are creating potential new challenges for government transparency. As more agency employees use Twitter, Facebook and similar external sites, some state and local IT officials are asking whether those communications should be archived for public viewing. The problem is that agencies don't know how to archive communications made on third-party social networks.
For now, public officials are delaying this puzzler because the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) has no mandates related to them. But Melinda Catapano, city records manager for Grand Junction, Colorado, who also is a lawyer, predicts the courts will eventually force agencies to provide this data. Examining the likelihood of this issue becoming a problem could help public officials discern the appropriate priority to solving it.
The Problem Approaches
Catapano follows legal trends closely and thinks a mandate from the courts could be imminent. "There are so many ways a court could say this is connected to official agency work, ergo you better be able to produce that record," she said.
Elayne Starkey, chief security officer of Delaware and FOIA coordinator for the state's Department of Technology and Information, agrees. As citizens become increasingly accustomed to accessing more types of communication archives, Starkey says that social network archives will be a logical expectation.
Catapano pointed to a judgment from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit that the U.S. Supreme Court recently agreed to review as an indicator of what's to come. In City of Ontario v. Quon, the Ninth Circuit held that the Ontario, California, Police Department violated an officer's privacy rights by examining an archive of text messages on his city-issued cell phone. If the U.S. Supreme Court reverses the circuit court's decision and says producing an archive of employee text messages is legitimate, that could have implications on other electronic communications, in Catapano's view.
"To the courts, it may well be a series of short leaps: from text messaging via pagers to electronic communications in general to electronic communications via external sources," Catapano said. Twitter and Facebook could easily be among those "external sources," according to Catapano.
One difference is that state and local governments currently have no guidelines or may not be familiar with programs that could archive external social networking posts. By contrast, a mechanism does exist for retrieving text message archives if that becomes required.
Catapano admitted that she, like numerous other government officials, didn't have a clue as to how to archive external social networking posts. "It would probably be a good master's thesis because everybody needs those answers and everybody seems to be avoiding the problem," Catapano remarked.
Michele Hovet, IT director of Arvada, Colorado, said she agreed the challenge of archiving social networking posts is on the horizon. "Right now, we're drawing a line by policy. If it's hosted on an external entity that we don't have the control over, we will not include it in an open records request. We will not have to archive it," Hovet said.
"In the future will that change as these tools are used more and more? I think it will."
Riding E-Mail's Coattails
Given that technology already exists for archiving e-mails, Peter Larson, manager of the IT department for Douglas County, Colorado, suggested that e-mail might be the mechanism IT departments use for storing social network postings. For example, he said an agency could easily attach a program to its e-mail system enabling employees to post to social networking sites through their government-issued e-mail accounts. Larson theorized the user experience wouldn't be all that awkward. After all, agency workers already have their e-mail accounts handy anyway. Why couldn't they track communications on Twitter, and then quickly click their Outlook tabs and send necessary tweets via e-mail?
Services performing such an e-mail-to-social networking site function do exist on the Web for free, but Larson said an agency would need to build its own to ensure that it was reliable."If you were going to be on the hook for producing that archive, you would have to implement some sort of system you could have confidence in," Larson said.
It's also conceivable that social networks could e-mail copies of postings to users. For example, e.Republic, Governing's publisher, runs message boards for a local government collaboration program called Digital Communities that send out precisely that type of e-mail.
Only time will show how state and local governments tackle this question as lawyers enforce it as a priority.

Cover Letters
Job Search letters provide an opportunity to make a good first impression with a prospective employer. They are a marketing tool that can be used to advertise your qualifications for a particular position. When they are well-written, they can provide evidence of a fit between your desires and qualifications above and beyond the objective resume format. Take the time to make your letter personalized and to illustrate a true fit between you and the organization.
Sample #1 – Engineering Cover Letter
Sample #2 – Insurance Cover Letter
Many cover letters take a three paragraph form. There are no hard and fast rules to writing a cover letter, but the following share what you might want to include in each paragraph:
First Paragraph
You want to introduce who you are and how you heard about the position. If you attended an informational session or met a particular employer at a career fair, mention that interaction as it shows you intentionally made a personal contact with the organization. This may also be a good place to mention your degree or what draws you to the position or company.
Second Paragraph
This is going to be the longest paragraph and the one that holds the most information. Sometimes people will split this section into two paragraphs or utilize a bullet point format. The main function of this paragraph is to prove a fit between your past experiences and knowledge and those for which the company are looking. Underline key phrases in the job description or within the company's advertised values and mission and incorporate those into this section. You want to parallel your experiences with those that the organization/position desires and show how you match the qualifications and have done your research on the organization.
Third Paragraph
This paragraph serves as the conclusion and as the logistical mastermind. It is here that you want to re-state your interest in the position, and let the employer know that you will follow up with them in a week to ensure they received your application. Also invite them to contact you at your email address or phone number. Finally, thank them for their review of your application.
Other Hints
- Use the same header (with your name and contact information) on your resume and cover letter to make application materials look consistent
- If you are sending a cover letter electronically, you can include it in the document with your resume to minimize the amount of clicks an employer has to make to read your application materials
- As with your resume, try to send it in a pdf, so you can ensure the employer is seeing what you see and the word document is not altered at all
For more information, look at our Career Matters Handbook online or pick up a hard copy in our office (Thomas, Room 103). You may also make an appointment with a counselor for review of your cover letter. Call 559.278.2381 to schedule.

Could the Internet Kill Snow Days?
San Francisco Chronicle reported that this year, more and more schools started experimenting with "virtual" days when it was too snowy to safely get kids to school. Teachers broadcasted their lessons online and their students were required to watch and participate.
By holding virtual lessons, the schools don't have to make up the missed school days at the end of the year.
Josie Holford is the head of the Poughkeepsie Day School in New York. They're moving to virtual days when it snows because, quote, "Learning isn't confined anymore. Why should a snow day stop the progress of learning?"
What do you think should we put virtual lessons in to play during snow days?
We all remember pressing our ear up to the radio speaker when we were little hoping that the DJ would announce a snow day for our school. There wasn't much of anything that was better than a snow day. So naturally, The Man is trying to get rid of them.

With no disrepect to our veterans, whom I greatly admire for their service to our country, I feel this idea goes overboard. To treat war as a "game" that is fun, is, IMO, giving a terrible, first impression of what war is like, and the true horrors of being in combat situation.
I feel that to avoid war unless absolutely necessary for our own safety is the best strategy.

I wish they would bring that to my house and let me borrow it for a few weeks. It would have to be better than playing Call of Duty 4 with a darn PS3 controller. Personally, I don't see a big problem with it. The biggest part that they can not simulate is having bullets coming back at you. If it gets more people interested in enlisting, then I say go for it.

Virtual reality is the wave of the future. Technology removes some of the CQB confrontation. It also desensitizes today's youth to the ideas of taking life and the effects. Good recruitment tool? Of course. When reality hits, some will be shocked to say the least.
At least that was my frame of mind 42 years ago when I joined and later ended up in Vietnam. The video would only have inspired me further. The main difference in the video and the real thing is that one can get killed doing the real thing, not to mention, heat, mud, rain, and being tired. The video is not all that different to reality, other than the fact that the other side will shoot back with intent to hurt you and draw real blood.
War is for the young. Now that I am older and have more sense, I, like most others who have been there and done that, would now avoid it (mainly because of increased age and diminished physical ability). It is true that war is no game, but it is the young men who are our true warriors.
Thank God for our modern young warrior who is willing to put his life on the line and fight for us. If it is the video that inspires him into action, so be it. However, I trust that the overwhelming motivation will always be patriotism (with a little quest for adventure thrown in).
To me it's simply smart marketing. They are going after their target demographic; 18 year old males. What do most 18 year old males do A LOT these days? Hmmmm... play video games!

The only way to improve the realism would have you hooked up to a machine that during intense simulated combat would replicate peeing and deficating in your drawers
"Outside of the killings, Washington has one of the lowest crime rates in the country,"

I think Fox News is about 25 years behind on their story!
I can remember a film based "video game" for LEOs called "Shoot, Don't Shoot" that in many ways did the same thing and was good training, but not very news worthy. When I shot the program you used your service weapon, on the range.
EOD - Initial success or total failure
Make sense. The bottom line is the target for military enlistment has long been young males who consider themselves invulnerable. Like it or not that is the truth. In addition such simulations offer a very real benefit with regards to training. The air force and navy figured that out decades ago. The army did so as well with armor. It is now making its way to the infantry soldier.

You are herecontent / On Israeli Settlement Freeze, Public Has Obama's Back
On Israeli Settlement Freeze, Public Has Obama's Back
There have been hints in the press that the Obama Administration has been considering conditioning U.S. aid to Israel on a real freeze of Israeli settlement expansion in the West Bank. There's a conventional wisdom that suggests that doing this would touch a "third rail of politics." But the conventional wisdom might not have been accurate; if it once was accurate, it might not be accurate any more.
WorldPublicOpinion.org has just released a poll showing that three-quarters of Americans oppose Israeli settlement expansion in the West Bank. This number is up 23 points from 2002.
Even among respondents who say they sympathize with Israel more than the Palestinians, 64% say Israel should not build settlements in the West Bank.
Opposition to settlements is found among majorities of Democrats, Republicans, and independents. Those who followed the issue closely oppose settlement expansion by the same margin as those who don't.
Some may say: public opinion doesn't matter. What matters, they may say, is that the so-called "Israel Lobby" will effectively punish any politician who tries to shift U.S. policy towards Israel and the Palestinians.
But the Obama Administration has already proved that this isn't necessarily so.
The Los Angeles Times reports:
The administration has asked Congress for minor changes in U.S. law that would permit aid to continue flowing to Palestinians in the event Hamas-backed officials become part of a unified Palestinian government.
Secretary of State Clinton defended the administration's position before Congress. She noted that
the United States supports and funds the Lebanese government, even though it includes members of Hezbollah, another militant group on the U.S. terrorist list.
Reps. Nita Lowey and Mark Kirk objected. But as the Jewish Telegraphic Agency notes,
Significantly, however, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Shultz (D-Fla.), a pro-Israel stalwart, defended Clinton in a call organized by the National Jewish Democratic Council to mark the first 100 days of the Obama administration.
"The unity government itself will have embraced those principles," she said. "The most important priority for members of Congress is to support Israel and to move the peace process forward."
If the Obama Administration can shift U.S. policy towards engaging in some form with Hamas, then surely it can shift policy towards moving the U.S. from ineffective to effective implementation of its stated policy of opposition to Israeli settlement expansion, as it is virtually universally recognized that stopping Israeli settlement expansion is an absolutely necessary element of achieving a two-state solution to the Israel-Palestine conflict - just as it is virtually universally recognized that some form of engagement with Hamas will be necessary to achieve a two-state solution in the long run, and to get effective aid into Gaza in the short run.
Moreover, if the U.S. would get serious about stopping Israeli settlement expansion, it could help fundamentally alter the political dynamics in Israel. Israel's right-wing has grown accustomed to the notion that Israel can indefinitely go through the motions of a "peace process," while steadily expanding settlements in the West Bank in the hopes of making a Palestinian state impossible. If the U.S. puts an end to this game, it will empower the political forces in Israel who genuinely want a two-state solution - who, on this question, represent the majority of the Israeli population.

What is below this Gaza area so desired to be controlled
or owned by the leaders/controllers in Israel? So desired
they would wipe out an entire people??
Everything the leaders sanction against these people and this
Gaza area is a monstrous crime against humanity for which
the instigators in Israel will be justly repaid. And
in these times of increased energy when every act you
do returns to the doer faster and faster, their karma will
come back to them quickly.

So the Republican "bad cops/Zionists" push an aggressive agenda, then the Obama "good cops/Zionists" demand not a reversal, but a temporary halt to affronts against humanity.
And the American/Israeli Empire just smiles and smiles.

A new study from Juniper Research (www.juniperresearch.com) has found that global digital advertising spend across mobile, wearable and online devices will exceed $285 billion by 2020, up from an estimated $160 billion in 2016. This will be driven by an average annual growth of 22% in mobile and wearable advertising spend, as brands and retailers continue to invest in mobile consumer engagement.
The new research found that despite the rising adoption of ad blockers, better audience targeting will drive higher click through rates and increase publisher revenues. Research author Sam Barker said: "Publishers, such as Facebook, are utilising their unprecedented audience knowledge to offer advertisers highly accurate targeting, thereby increasing the click through rates that advertisers are witnessing now."
He added that publishers who are able to offer the most efficient targeting are set to...| Read more »

Children's Hospital & Medical Center offers nearly all babies who graduate from the NICU or have received cardiothoracic surgery in newborn period an opportunity to participate in our neurodevelopmental NICU Follow-Up Clinic. Research shows that babies who receive care in the NICU are at risk for some degree of developmental delay. The NICU Follow-Up Clinic specializes in identifying neurodevelopmental delay problems early on and provides early intervention therapies to reduce long-term developmental issues. The clinic provides a more in-depth developmental assessment than most pediatricians or family physicians normally provide. Your baby's neonatologist will decide what kind of follow-up is recommended based on your baby's medical conditions, complications during the hospital stay and the severity of your child's illness or prematurity. Infants are typically seen at three intervals post-discharge from the NICU: 6-9 months, 16-18 months and 2-3 years of age.
Developmental Tracking Infant Progress Statewide program
As part of your baby's neurodevelopmental follow-up care, we also recommend that you enroll your baby in the state-sponsored Developmental Tracking Infant Progress Statewide (TIPS) program. The Developmental TIPS program is a free statewide program in Nebraska specifically designed to follow all babies who have received care in the NICU.
TIPS is an ongoing clinical project funded by the Nebraska Department of Education, the Nebraska Health and Human Services Division and Children's Hospital & Medical Center. The program performs statewide developmental follow-up of infants from major neonatal intensive care units throughout Nebraska. Infants who were in the neonatal intensive care unit for at least 48 hours, regardless of the child's perceived risk for neurodevelopmental disability, qualify for the TIPS program. The goal of TIPS is to standardize the system of follow-up in the state and to gather neurodevelopmental outcome data to ensure ongoing screening that maximizes early identification of developmental problems.
While your enrollment in the NICU Follow-up Clinic and TIPS is optional, we encourage you to participate in both as this gives you access to experts who specialize in infant development and allows for earlier identification of milder developmental delay problems. These specialists will make recommendations for care based on their findings in the neurodevelopmental screening process. Your pediatrician/family doctor also will be provided on-going information about your baby's developmental needs. The NICU Follow-Up Clinic does not take the place of normal baby care and immunizations that your pediatrician/family doctor provides.
To participate in TIPS, your baby will be categorized into one of three possible levels of development. These levels include:
If your baby is enrolled in TIPS, the developmental testing results are entered into a confidential database kept at Munroe-Meyer Institute at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha. You will be asked to sign a consent giving us permission to send data about your baby to Munroe-Meyer Institute. The consent also gives permission for Munroe Meyer Institute to send findings to your baby's primary doctor. The findings from this process help us guarantee appropriate developmental follow-up for your child and allows the NICU staff to evaluate the care we provide. This information can then be used to help other families know what may be expected in their child's development.

Hopefully, you now have a Web site that is up and running and you are getting a few extra patients every month. By this point you should have also created an AdWords campaign. You should also start to include your Web site address on everything with your office name on it: business cards, letterhead, print ads, yellow pages, signage, etc. By now, your Web site may even be showing up somewhere on the organic search engine results. If not, this portion of this 4-part article series is for you. In this article I will be covering some of the final intricacies of having a successful Web site.
|Sample Web pages illustrating an ideal balance of text, images, and high quality graphics.
Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process by which your Web site content is specifically designed to cater to what the search engines are looking for. Those of you who have been on the Internet for 5 or more years may remember Web sites that had all kinds of tiny little keywords at the bottom of every page. This was an old fashioned version of SEO which no longer works. Nearly all current search engines have been designed to filter out such low-brow attempts at garnering visits. SEO is a big business with lots of sharks, so be careful. I would generally advise against paying someone to "SEO" your site. Paying someone to SEO your Web site can be quite expensive and is probably only necessary in the most competitive of markets. The money would usually be better spent on AdWords, books on SEO, or on your loved ones.
Most SEO is designed around the suspected algorithm of Google. (Google holds the highest market share of total searches, currently about 70%.) The search engines never disclose what specifically their algorithm is looking for, so it is all based upon reasonable speculation. A Web site that has good SEO will show up at the top of relevant search terms without having to resort to AdWords or paid inclusion referral Web sites.
For the most part, the following items are agreed upon to be good SEO principles:
- a domain name relevant to the search terms (ie, yourcitydentist.com).
- page titles relevant to the search terms.
- lots of grammatically correct words and sentences relevant to the search terms.
- lots of linked words relevant to the search terms.
- picture titles (aka alt-text) relevant to the search terms.
- regular updates and changes to the Web site.
- lots of links from Web sites relevant to the search terms.
Items that are generally agreed upon to penalize you in terms of SEO:
- a grammatically incorrect jumble of keywords on the Web site.
- nonrelevant Web sites linking to your site (these are known as link-farms).
- too few words in the Web site (this can happen if you rely heavily on Flash or frames)
- Web sites that are never updated.
When designing or modifying your Web site, carefully consider how you name each link, picture, and page title. Think about what terms your potential patients (not current patients) will be searching for when looking for a new dentist. If your Web site is yourcitydentist.com, then some of the other page titles within your Web site might be /veneers, /smiles, /contact-the-dentist, etc. The pictures should also have alt-text names that include key words with all of the variations for your geographic area.
When assigning alt-text to your pictures, keep the descriptions brief but keyword-packed. The links should be limited to 2 or 3 words each, again based on keywords. If you use graphic style buttons for links to the other pages of your Web site, be sure to include text links at the bottom of the page to ensure that the search engines can navigate your entire Web site. The search engines have a hard time following button style links. The search engines also reward Web sites that have link names that are in line with the terms being searched.
Relevant external links continue to be one of the more important parts of SEO because they are difficult to fake. External links are other Web pages that have a link to your Web site. It is important that they be from reputable and relevant sites though. There are sites known as link-farms where you merely type in your Web site address and a link appears. It has become quite a problem and it is speculated that having a link to your Webpage on these link-farm sites may actually hurt your ranking. If instead, links to your Web page are found on several Web pages related to dentistry, health, aesthetics, or your geographic area—your Web site ranking will greatly benefit. To obtain such links, start with any and all organizations to which you belong and see if they allow you to add your Web site address to a profile or link page.
High-ranking Web sites generally have a few very important things in common. They change and are updated on a regular basis, they have a lot of keyword heavy text, and they contain relevant external links pointing to the Web site. The search engines tend to prefer Web sites that appear to be current. There are a lot of dormant Web sites on the Internet that may have ranked well at one time, but because of little or no updating they have slipped in the rankings. Adding a blog to your Web site is just one way to keep your Web site current and boost its ranking. You might also consider adding and changing pictures over time.
As mentioned, the search engines can only read, they cannot see. As such, you will need to add a significant amount of text to your Web site. The text should contain keywords relating to dentistry and to your geographic area. Be sure to balance the keywords with readability though. It's no use getting to the top of the search engine results if your text turns potential patients off. Consider writing mini articles on the procedures you perform. Include friendly bios of you and your staff; this can be a good place to put some of the key geographic terms. Avoid the common mistake of merely listing keywords. It will penalize you with the search engines and turn off prospective patients.
To get a good idea of what a well SEO'd page looks like, search for SEO. Review the Web sites that come up as the top organic results. You will likely notice similarities between them, and most of those similarities will correspond with the above items. The real trick here is to create a page that the search engine likes and that will motivate prospective patients to call your office. It is a fine line to walk, but it can be done. Also remember that results with SEO are never instantaneous. Search engines factor into their rankings how long a Web site has been in existence. Keep at it and be patient.
One of the more fail-safe ways for a search engine to determine the relevance of your Web site is to rely on what value other Web sites place on it. That is, the search engines appear to reward your Web site ranking when relevant Web sites link to yours. This works well for the search engines because it is difficult to fake. The aforementioned link-farms are well known, and most of the search engines seem to penalize Web sites that appear on them. Avoid the temptation to provide reciprocal links between your Web site and one selling unrelated products or services (such as Viagra and the like) as it will only hurt your rankings.
So how do you get relevant sites to link to yours? First and foremost, make sure that your Web site appears as a link on any professional membership directories or forums to which you belong. Any Web site that is primarily about dentistry will benefit you if they have a link to your Web site. Next do a search for "your city dentist" and look for the regional directory type Web sites. Submit your Web site to these as well.
Another approach to getting all the right links is to find out what sites are linking to the top organic results and get them to link to your site as well. To do this, go to Google and search again for "your city dentist," but this time you are looking for other dentists' Web sites. Copy their Web site addresses. Now perform a new search for: "link: theirwebaddress.com." The results will be all of the pages that have links pointing to that Web site. The most relevant links will appear first. Your Web site also needs to appear on those pages if you want similar results. Some will merely allow you to submit your address, others will require a link in return, and some others will want money. How much you are willing to pay for the link is up to you.
For those of you looking to expand your presence on the Internet, having multiple customized Web sites may be just the thing. This is an especially useful tactic if you feel that you are having difficulty trying to be everything to everyone with your singular Web site.
Just as you can create a separate AdWords and AdGroups for each type of patient, you can also create separate Web sites. This allows you total freedom to specifically market to each type of patient. One of the really significant benefits to this tactic is that each site can have a link to the others. For example, say you have 4 Web sites, each customized for a different type of patient. Each one is specifically related to an area of dentistry in your regional area. Now when the search engines find these sites and see the links, they will assume that your Web site is a very important resource for people searching for a dentist in your region.
Obviously, this comes at an increased cost since you would now have to pay yearly domain registration and hosting fees. You would also need to spend the time or money to design each Web site. But this may be just what you need to become the superstar Internet dentist for your area. It may even work out to be less expensive over the long run, especially if you start to get very good organic results and can stop paying for your AdWords results.
The Internet can be a big and scary place, but I hope that this 4-part series of articles has given you a good idea on how to get started. Hopefully it has shown you ways to avoid the very expensive pitfalls that are out there. For those of you looking for more indepth information, there are many Internet forums dedicated to Webmasters (that's you now). Best of luck to you in your virtual endeavors—may you see a great return on investment in the real world!

POUGHKEEPSIE, N.Y. – Tierney Larson (Fairfield, Conn.) set the single-season and single-game assist record on Wednesday as the Marist women's lacrosse team routed Manhattan 22-8 in a Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) game at Tenney Stadium. It is the third time in the past six games that the Red Foxes have scored at least 20 goals.
Larson assisted on seven goals on Wednesday, beating the previous single game record of six assists. She came into the game tied with 33 assists on the year, tied with Lindsey Diener, who set the record in 2008. Larson now has 40 assists this year with three regular season games left. She also added a goal for a total of eight points on the day.
Kirsten Viscount (Smithtown, N.Y.) tied a career with five goals and Ashley Miller (Montville, N.J.) also had five points on three goals and two assists. Jamie Romano (Kings Park, N.Y.) scored two goals and assisted on two others and Sabrina Mattera (Wantagh, N.Y.) had two goals and an assist. Lexi Brannigan (Loudonville, N.Y.), Jackie DiMaria (Dix Hills, N.Y.), and Erin Schroeder (Vero Beach, Fla.) all had two goals. Ashley Casiano (South Windsor, Conn.) got the win for the Red Foxes, making six saves. Liz Holmes (Longmeadow, Mass.) made three saves, playing the final 21 minutes.
Manhattan got on the board first, scoring just 49 seconds into the game. Marist (6-8, 3-1 MAAC) scored the next four goals, in a 3:11 span to take a 4-1 lead, an advantage they would not relinquish. Larson scored her only goal at the 28:21 mark, on an assist from Romano, to tie the score at one. Miller scored from Romano to give the Red Foxes the lead and Romano scored her first of the game to bring the score to 3-1 with 25:42 left in the first half. Just 32 seconds later Amanda Tuck (Mamaroneck, N.Y.) scored on the record-setting assist from Larson to bring the score to 4-1.
Following another Jaspers (3-10, 0-3 MAAC) goal, Marist rattled off another five consecutive goals to bring the lead to 9-2 with 9:09 left in the opening half. Viscount scored three of her goals in the stretch and Brannigan and Miller each added one. Larson assisted on three of the goals.
Goals by Allison Gionta (Eastport, N.Y.), Brannigan and DiMaria extended the Red Foxes' lead to 12-4 at halftime.
Romano traded goals with Manhattan to start the second half before Marist scored six straight to blow the game wide open at 19-5 with 12:17 left in the game. Viscount and Mattera each scored twice and Miller and Dimaria added another.
The Red Foxes will take this weekend off before hosting Iona next Wednesday in a 4 p.m. game at Tenney Stadium.

3rd grade math
posted by demetrios on .
use the digits 0 2 4 5 6 and 8 to write two money amounts that you can subtract by trading one dime for ten pennies. Then solve
I think no one has helped you with this problem because we don't understand it. It is not worded clearly.
Please ask your teacher to help you.
Hello Ms Sue....thanks for trying but this is exactly how the question is written in the book. LOL and this is expected of an 8 year old child.
Any chance your from Beverly Park ?
No. I live in Michigan.
ah the cold! Well thank you again for trying! :)
You're welcome.
If you can, I'd appreciate it if you post the teacher's response. The question simply makes no sense to me. And since no math tutor answered it, I assume others don't understand it either.
I know this is two years old, but I don't want anyone else to suffer the rage I just experienced trying to figure this piece of crap question with my 3rd grader. I think they are asking you to come up with two amounts such as $5.20 (5 dollars and 2 dimes) and $4.68 (any combination), where you would have to make change for one of your dimes in order to give the second amount away. If you have 5 dollars and 2 dimes and wanted to give someone 4 dollars, 6 dimes, and 8 pennies, you would have to trade 1 dime for 10 pennies.

CLEVELAND — Jim Brown has come back to the team he helped lead to its last NFL championship.
Brown will return in an unspecified role with the Cleveland Browns, who will formally reunite with the Hall of Fame standout at a news conference today. Brown previously worked as a senior adviser with the Browns. However, his role was eliminated by former team president Mike Holmgren and Brown had been estranged from the team for a few years.
NBA approves Kings' sale
SACRAMENTO — The NBA Board of Governors unanimously approved the sale of the Sacramento Kings to a group led by TIBCO Software chairman Vivek Ranadive.
The NBA said in a statement that the "transaction is expected to close shortly."
After league owners blocked the sale and relocation of the franchise to Seattle earlier this month, the Maloof family reached an agreement to sell a 65 percent controlling interest in the Kings to Ranadive's group at a total franchise valuation of $535 million.
• PHOENIX — One of the most popular Phoenix Suns players from the franchise's past will guide the team to an uncertain future. At the news conference announcing his hiring as Suns coach, Jeff Hornacek spoke at length about his readiness for the job and the influences that will guide him. Hornacek played the first six of his 14 NBA seasons with the Suns.
Roy introduced as Avs' coach
DENVER — The Colorado Avalanche introduced Patrick Roy as their new coach, turning to the Hall of Fame goalie to revive a franchise he once led to prominence.
Roy met the media for the first time since reaching a deal last week. In addition to coaching, he will also serve as vice president of hockey operations.
The 47-year-old Roy joins forces with former teammate-turned-executive Joe Sakic to fix a squad that's missed the playoffs for three consecutive seasons.
Ex-D2 QB found dead
DETROIT — One of the winningest quarterbacks in college football history was found dead in the woods of northern Michigan, days after disappearing while out fishing near his family's cottage.
Cullen Finnerty, 30, who led Grand Valley (Mich.) State University to three NCAA Division II national titles and more than 50 wins during his four years as a starter, went missing Sunday. His body was found about 8 p.m. within a mile of where he was last seen.The cause of death wasn't clear, but officials said foul play isn't suspected.
England ready to play Ireland
LONDON — For the first time since hooligans rioted and forced their match to be abandoned 18 years ago, the England and Ireland soccer teams will take to the field today in a contest seen as a historic chance for redemption. Tensions are high in London ahead of the exhibition match at Wembley Stadium, which is being staged as part of the English Football Association's 150th anniversary celebrations.
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — With Nike's help, Lance Armstrong's Livestrong cancer charity turned a little yellow wristband into a global symbol for cancer survivors.
With Armstrong dominating the Tour de France, the trendy little pieces of plastic helped Livestrong pump millions of dollars into cancer survivor programs.
But that partnership, which started in 2004, will soon end. Livestrong announced the apparel company is cutting ties with the charity in the wake of the former cyclist's doping scandal.
Nike said it will stop making its Livestrong line of apparel after the 2013 holiday season. But Foundation and company officials said Nike will honor the contract until the deal expires in 2014.

Last night's 2017 BET Awards red carpet was full of amazing looks but it's safe to say Gucci Mane and DJ Khaled's son Asahd Khalid stole the show in matching blue Gucci suits. It seems the twinning was not planned but that doesn't make it any less adorable. Gucci Mane posted the above photo to his Twitter and another shot on his Instagram, while Asahd's proud daddy Khaled posted this cute video of the duo on his Instagram.

not too long ago, I'd say 16 months tops, I had my throw-out bearing on my clutch fail.
when I finally saved up enough money to pay a mechanic to install a brand new clutch kit
my mechanic also recommended I change my rear main engine oil seal while the gear box was off the car. This seemed reasonable to me so I said "go for it!"
now a year and a half has passed and my clutch has begun to slip. a week ago I changed my oil
and verified the correct amount of oil on the dip stick. I have been driving this car long enough to know it does not burn or leak any oil.
except a few days ago I felt my clutch slip in 5th gear on the highway on the way to work.
I was bummed. could I really be that hard on the clutch and wear it out or glaze it severely
to cause this? well I babied the car for a week hoping i had simply overheated the clutch and
some chill driving would bring it back.. but no joy.
today I got under the car with a shop light and inspected the bottom of the gear box and
low and behold...
there is like a metal access plate of some kind near where the gear box mates the engine
and I detected a little bit of my fresh oil seeping from the seam there. I also verified on the
dipstick that the oil level was three lines of tiny dots ( on the dipstick) lower than it was when I changed the oil last week. this pretty much makes me sure it is my rear main oil seal
leaking and tossing motor oil all over my NEW clutch.
dammit I am mad. the mechanic offered a 1 year warranty on parts and labor but
I feel that if they had done the repair correctly that this wouldn't have happened.
could my driving habits cause the rear seal to fail?
just wondering if people thing I should pick a different mechanic this time
or if I should go back to Earl at aamco transmission and say.. look man...
Im leaking oil from a part you installed..
my instinct tells me to pick a new mechanic tell them what happened and hope
they will be careful and install a new oil seal and clutch carefully and
correctly so that this never happens again in the life of this car..
also I am assuming the intermittent slipping and oil has destroyed the clutch disc.
I don't suppose anyone would argue that cleaning the oil off completely would
save the clutch and it would function normally if cleaned and re-installed?
I assume not but wouldn't mind saving $150 dollars.

No, Jon Stewart did not defend Andrew Breitbart, a.k.a. Arnold B. Truthington
This is going from sad to downright pathetic.
Andrew Breitbart's defenders in the right-wing media are desperate to find something -- anything -- to prove that he's not the lying, race-baiting weasel that the Shirley Sherrod fiasco showed him to be, and they're claiming that Comedy Central's Jon Stewart, of all people, is on Breitbart's side.
Here's the headline Breitbart.tv attached [1] to a clip of Stewart's take on the Sherrod story from the July 26 Daily Show: "Jon Stewart: 'Andrew Breitbart may be the most honest person in this entire story.' "
Conservative bloggers followed suit, quoting Stewart's alleged adjudication of Breitbart's honesty. Jim Hoft pronounced [2] it "weird" that "far left media hack Jon Stewart" would defend Breitbart, NewsBuster Noel Sheppard called [3] Stewart's comment "surprising," and Breitbart's BigGovernment.com took it as proof [4] that "the fallout over the NAACP's and Obama Administration's [sic] handling of the Shirley Sherrod affair" is really "bad."
Unfortunately for them, Stewart did not defend Breitbart at all, and the quote they're seizing upon was -- all too fittingly -- ripped wildly out of context.
Here's the video of Stewart's segment on Shirley Sherrod, during which he mocks the NAACP for saying they were "snookered" by Breitbart and Fox News, with the relevant transcript below. As it makes clear, Stewart was actually pointing out that Breitbart makes no bones about his commitment to destructive dishonesty:
|The Daily Show With Jon Stewart [5]
|Mon - Thurs 11p / 10c
|Lost in Race [6]
STEWART: You were snookered? What are you? An old lady in a Groucho Marx movie that got her pearls swiped on an ocean liner? "Oh, he told me he was a millionaire then he stole my necklace. I've been snookered!" First of all, Fox News is too busy with their Black Panther hard-on to bother much with this, and Andrew Breitbart, the guy who leaked the edited tape, may be the most honest person in this entire story. This is what he said five months ago.
BREITBART: I want to be in the history books -- of saying, I want -- I took down the institutional left.
STEWART: See, he didn't say "I want to be in the history books as a paragon of honesty." He didn't say "I'd like to be in the Museum of Broadcasting and be known by children around the world as Arnold B. Truthington of Accuracy Lane." No. He said, out loud, I want to bring down the institutional left. So, if you are on the institutional left, and you receive a package from him, watch the whole [bleeped] tape! How is that snookering?
Looks like Arnold B. Truthington's going to have to find someone else to call a friend.

What it probably did was to repeat as a sort of ritornello the clearly marked refrain of the song.
She sang a couplet and the others sang in chorus a ritornello.
The same may be said about the Stornello, ritornello and Ciure.
The ritornello is first given, which is long, because it serves as an introduction to the first scene of the opera.

Twelve conceded and zero scored in the last four matches. It's safe to say that Newcastle United's season has fizzled out in recent weeks. The early promising form which produced victories at Old Trafford and White Hart Lane has well and truly deserted the Magpies.
Disappointing early exits in the Capital One Cup and FA Cup eliminated any hopeful prospects of ending the club's well publicised trophy drought. Disinterested and lacklustre performances against Everton, Manchester United and Southampton have condemned Newcastle to a position of mid-table mediocrity.
Fans on forums have spoken of now attending fixtures out of a sense of obligation more than anything else. Blame has largely been attributed on Alan Pardew and senior figures such as Mike Ashley and the clueless Joe Kinnear. But too many of the players have failed to deliver the goods on an all too regular basis.
Bearing this in mind, here's a list of the FIVE players that have let Newcastle down the most this season.

Weary of shooting down legions of reports that President Obama's social calendar next week on Martha's Vineyard might include the wedding of Chelsea Clinton and Marc Mezvinsky (see here, here and here, just to scratch the surface), two spokesmen for the former first daughter's family are issuing an unusual challenge.
Philippe Reines, who works for Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, and Matt McKenna, who works for former president Bill Clinton, are backing up their denials with their own money. Here's the gauntlet thrown down in a McKenna e-mail to The Oval:
Philippe and I will together put up ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS (US) from our own pocket, and bet against any source that there is no wedding. Period. We don't need to know who they are, only you do. Let's make it fun. If they are so sure, it's also easy money for them.
"Them" being the pesky reporters who stand to collect if the rumors turn out to be true.
Personally, your Oval correspondent isn't risking any of her cash on this clunker. But we're eagerly awaiting word of any braver takers.
Chelsea's pictured here with her famous parents at mom's February swearing-in as secretary of State.

Is brushing really thaaat bad?
I'm getting lazy. I have no patience to style my hair every day. All I want to do is take a shower, comb my hair, go to bed, wake up, comb again, and walk out the door. It does take a lot of the curl pattern out. It goes from a 2c to straight but with nice body and volume and some wave at the end. I think it looks fine. Admittedly I like it better when I style it curly annnnd it turns out good, but for the majority of the time when it doesn't look good, brushing it looks way better. Plus it feels better. No unnecessary product-y feeling. Plus it looks better in a pony tail this way. I wanna grow out my hair. I cut it shoulder length not too long ago, it's now a few inches below my shoulders. Is this gonna make it harder to grow by breaking the ends more? Cause that'd suck.
If you are not getting frizz by brushing your hair, then I would not think you would have to worry about breakage. I thought the only reason curlies don't like to brush is because it can cause frizz.
Me? I brush and its Roseanne Roseannadanna city.`
I mostly don't brush because I have baby fine hair and that breaks it. If I'm combing it, it is gently with a wide-toothed comb. I do comb it to put it up. I think it's an issue with fragility, which many curlies have?
I'm gonna go with "no"....it's not that bad. For me, brushing my hair usually means pyramid head, but sometimes I get extremely frustrated with my hair...and if I brush vewy, vewy gently LOL it can look nice. Soft, flowy waves with tolerable frizz. I think wavies can get away with it better than curlies, though. Gently and not too often is the key, I think. Whatever makes me feel :toothy4: about my hair for the day. No guilt. :thumbleft:

Thank you. The original CMU CL code used #\NULL as the initial value for strings. I prefer to use #\SPACE as the high level default initial element for strings, since it seems surprising for the default of an ANSI operation MAKE-STRING not to be an ANSI BASE-CHAR, and in converting from #\NULL to #\SPACE I introduced the bug when I misunderstood some of the behavior that you explained. I experimented with a little while waiting for compilation on some simple tests of something else, and I think I understand how to fix it and still keep the #\SPACE default, but it looks like a bit more than a one-line change, so I think I'll wait until I get back from of this already-gone-on-far-too-long flaky5_branch thing. -- William Harold Newman <william.newman@...> pending patches from sbcl-devel: Ingvar Mattson any-8-bit-character-set patch 2001-09-05 (web link) MNA patch for fd-stream.lisp 2001-09-10 Alexey Dejneka "Bug in EXPAND-DEFGENERIC" patch 2001-09-10 Alexey Dejneka "strange behavior of DIRECTORY" bug report 2001-09-21, patch 2001-09-22 Swap FunctionPointer and InstancePointer type codes for PPC convenience (dan 2001-09-22). bug 126 fix Alexey Dejneka 2001-09-26 (now /usr/stuff/bug126.diff) already in flaky5_branch code: MNA 'reworked defclass patch' 2001-09-05 pending easy-to-fix bugs: (NBUTLAST NIL 0), reported anonymously in SourceForge bugs system PGP key fingerprint 85 CE 1C BA 79 8D 51 8C B9 25 FB EE E0 C3 E5 7C

Two migrants escape, re-arrested after chase
Two migrants escaped from a window of a minibus when they were taken to Mater Dei Hospital this afternoon, but they were re-arrested after a chase by detention officers.
The Detention Service said the two were in a group of Somalis that arrived in Malta on Friday.
Today, 40 of the new arrivals were escorted to Mater Dei Hospital by nine Detention Service Officers for medical screening. On arrival at Mater Dei in two mini buses the migrants were escorted in small groups to the x-ray department by five detention service officers while the rest remained on the minibuses guarded by four officers.
At about 2.45pm two immigrants escaped by jumping out of a minibus window. They ran towards the Birkirkara bypass.
Three officers gave chase and managed to apprehend them. They were subsequently taken to Msida Police Station and handed over to the police.

Angela Williams Palm '04 is the creator, curator, editor, and a contributor of "Please Do not Remove," a book that celebrates a love for literature and public libraries, specifically in Vermont.
In 2012, Palm, an English and Criminal Justice graduate, began collecting and studying library checkout cards.
"I studied the cards in hand," said Palm. "[I looked at] the names of the library patrons who had checked out the books across five or more decades and grew curious about who those people had been and what their handwriting and reading choices said about them."
The checkout cards inspired a few short stories from Palm. In April 2013, Palm shared her prompt with the writing community and started accepting submissions. "Please Do Not Remove"includes poetry, fiction, and nonfiction works by 20 Vermont writers and will be released in early September 2014.
Palm, who has resided in Vermont since 2011, owns Ink + Lead Literary Services and is the co-founder of the Renegade Writers' Collective in Vermont. Her writing has appeared or will soon appear in Paper Darts, Midwestern Gothic, ARDOR Literary Magazine, Little Fiction, Sundog Lit, Prick of the Spindle, and Tampa Review Online. Her essay "The Devolution of Cake," published in "Little Fiction, Big Truths," was nominated for a Pushcart Prize. Palm is currently working on two books, one of which is a novel.
"As readers flip through the pages of "Please Do Not Remove," . . . my hope is that readers will be transported, not only by the stories, poems, and essays, but by the images that depict tiny slices of life, frozen moments in time, and worlds-away places," said Palm. "I hope that [readers] will remember fondly the libraries that nurtured a lifelong love of books . . . I hope that they will help keep libraries alive, so that they may inspire others in the same way."
