Any two such occurrences in a given academic year will result in termination. A supervisor must approve all absences. Acceptable reasons include emergencies, illness, family crisis, etc.
- Staff members must request in writing to change the posted schedule. If the staff member has not received approval before the date of their original shift, he/ she must still report for work at 10pm, a supervisor will then make the decision to grant or deny the request.
- Time Cards should be signed the first night that staff work in the pay week and hours should be projected for the week (this will help reduce pay issues due to unsigned time cards, etc. ) It is the responsibility of the Security Assistant to make sure his /her time card is correct

Communities agree on water supplier
SHERIDAN – Community leaders at a meeting of the Chautauqua County Regional Water Agency have agreed to a program using Dunkirk and Fredonia as water sources.
Mayors, supervisors, county legislature members and elected officials from the nine communities in the northern Chautauqua County region met as members of the agency.
At their first meeting in April, local leaders heard a presentation of options on possible sources for water for the agency. The group members were asked to review the options and decide individually which of the options they approved. They included options with the City of Dunkirk as the sole water source and combinations using Dunkirk with Brocton, Fredonia and the Erie County Water Agency.
The group also considered construction of a new water treatment facility in the northern Chautauqua County region.
Ten members approved a resolution to have both Dunkirk and Fredonia be the source of the water supply for the region. Dunkirk Mayor A.J. Dolce introduced the motion. He said that the City of Dunkirk can produce 6.5 million gallons of water a day and that he believes Fredonia is the best choice to supply the additional water to bring the total to 10 million gallons a day, which is the anticipated need for the region. Some of the goals of the regional water agency will be to supply water to rural areas where residents now have wells as their water source.
No one voted against the motion to have Dunkirk and Fredonia share water production for the region. Three representatives were absent.
Another goal of the agency will be to reduce water costs for residents and businesses in the area. County Legislator George Borrello, R-Silver Creek, who also serves as chairman of the Economic Development Committee for the county, said he believes that an economical and stable source of water for the agency will help to attract new businesses.
Town of Pomfret Supervisor Donald Steger said he was pleased that the group had progressed to this plan. He said that he has been involved in looking at regional water plans for 17 years and that this year marked the most progress he had ever seen.
Brocton Mayor Bruce Hazelton was another local leader in favor of the plan. He said that even though Brocton has its own water treatment plant, the facility will need expensive upgrades, and they would be willing to close the plant in favor of a regional supply that was less expensive to operate and maintain.
One of the other options presented to the group was to install a transmission system and purchase water from the Erie County Water Authority.
Silver Creek and some of the Town of Hanover are both Water Authority customers.
Silver Creek Mayor Nick Piccolo said he would like to be able to have another source that is less expensive for his community.
Fredonia Mayor Steve Keefe said he will bring the information about the proposal to his Village Board at its regular meeting Monday.
Supporting action from Fredonia will be required for the group to apply for grant funding for the regional water plan.
The group is now faced with having to submit a new consolidated funding application by a June 16 deadline.

By Mr. Patrick Buffett (IMCOM)April 17, 2009
FORT MONROE, Va. - A PCSing Soldier can't sell his house and struggles with mortgage payments in addition to the costs of setting up a home at his new duty station.
An Army spouse is a victim of job cuts and the sudden loss of income leaves the family unable to pay their bills.
With the economy in a slump, scenarios like these are becoming more prevalent across the force, and service leaders are more than a little concerned about the dilemma. Vice Chief of Staff of the Army, Gen. Peter W. Chiarelli, recently issued a message that encouraged every military community to place heavy emphasis on the financial assistance and training programs available to Soldiers and their families.
"We need to understand how this problem (is impacting our community)," the memo read. "We need to make sure we are doing everything we can to help our families. We need to be proactive and communicate with Soldiers, and be prepared to address not only this issue, but other stressors that might be affecting them during these challenging times."
Serious and/or prolonged personal problems, financial or otherwise, can diminish a service member's quality of life and his or her ability to focus on the mission at hand, the general emphasized. "It has a huge impact on overall unit readiness. As leaders, we must always remember our primary responsibility is to take care of Soldiers and their families," he wrote.
Senior commanders at Fort Monroe expressed similar concerns earlier this year, and they asked Army Community Services to monitor the situation. Thus far, there's not much to report, according to Beverly Nicholson, the lead financial counselor for ACS. There are second-hand stories about community members not being able to sell their homes, but nobody has stepped forward to ask for help with financial difficulties related to the economy.
"You can look at the situation a few different ways ... there aren't any problems, community members are hesitant about asking for assistance, or they're unaware of the financial education and support network that's available to them at no cost," Nicholson said. "I think we can safely rule out the first thought, which leaves us with a serious challenge. We need to push that Soldier and family support piece and increase the overall awareness of what's available to community members."
Gen. Chiarelli agrees. He said the Army is developing a training package for commanders and an information packet for Soldiers that will promote available programs like Army Emergency Relief, ACS financial counseling, relocation assistance through the Housing Office, crisis counseling offered by post chaplains, and more. The service also is working with the Office of the Secretary of Defense to develop a Housing Assistance Plan in accordance with the provisions set forth by the recent Economic Stimulus Act (Public Law 111-5).
"I think our first hurdle is convincing Soldiers and their family members that it's okay to seek help," Nicholson said. "Some believe that asking for financial assistance is a sign of weakness, and it will hurt a service member's career. Actually the opposite is true - having a money problem and not taking any action to fix it is the least favorable option.
"The vice chief said it best. We need that Soldier and even that government civilian employee to be focused on the mission at hand, not worried about the financial problems his or her family is facing. It's just smarter to choose counseling and assistance over bill collectors knocking down the door."
Turning her focus to the financial support programs managed by ACS, Nicholson said AER is getting a lot of attention these days. The campaign that raises funds for the program is ongoing through May 15, and a quarter of the installation's $20,000 goal has been raised.
"I truly hope that more community members will contribute if they have the money available," she noted. "This is a program that has helped many Soldiers (since 1994, not one applicant at Fort Monroe has been denied financial assistance if they met AER guidelines Nicholson said in a March 20 Casemate article), and I'm certain that it will become even more important during this long economic recovery period."
Some of the most common types of AER support include loans for car repairs when a family has no other means of transportation, financial assistance for travel or other expenses when an immediate family member becomes critically ill or passes away, and help with food, rent and utilities for Soldiers who experience pay problems or find themselves struggling with excess debt.
Free financial counseling is offered through ACS as well. The service is far more than a lifeline for families with serious budget shortfalls, Nicholson noted. It can be used as an information tool for effective checkbook management, developing a savings plan, and more.
"Again, it's a matter of getting over the stereotypes," she continued. "If an individual sought the guidance of a 'financial counselor' off post, it's typically assumed that he or she is setting up a smart investment or retirement strategy. To get to that point, the client and counselor have to establish a budget and savings plan that is manageable with a given income.
"We offer the same thing, but we're not going to push investment products and we're not going to charge you membership or consultation fees. Our goal is the financial wellness of military families, whether it involves better spending habits, identifying a strategy for getting out of debt or helping to communicate budget difficulties to debtors and others in the community who may be able to provide assistance."
Education is another ACS offering that's particularly beneficial during these languid economic times. Through a regularly scheduled series of workshops, the agency provides a wealth of "how-to" information in the areas of job relocation, investments, buying real estate, finding employment in the federal workforce, and more.
"A good example is the free Military Spouse Employment Conference we're hosting on May 1," Nicholson said. "It will include a presentation about new DoD programs that put military spouses to work, a career assessment and portfolio building session, classes on resume writing and interviewing skills, and a whole lot more. It's a great opportunity for any military spouse or (employment-eligible) dependent who is looking for work."
Other money-related training on the horizon includes an investment strategies workshop on May 17 and a Home Buying 101 class on June 17. All sessions are facilitated by experienced subject matter experts, Nicholson noted. The only requirement for signup is a phone call.
"From classes to counseling, we just want everyone in our community to know that we're here to help," said Eva Granville, ACS director. "The economy is a serious issue right now, and our service leaders have called for active involvement. So, our message to every Soldier and military family member is: 'we have the programs and we're ready to help; the rest is up to you.'"

I felt my way back to the bedside table, grabbed the glasses, and returned to the window. Wow, what a difference it made! I could see the moon and the shadow the earth cast on it. The red glow was eerie and unlike anything I'd seen before.
In the afternoon, I got a call from my ex-wife. As is my habit, I let it go to voicemail. I've recently realized that, while my son is an alcoholic and a drug addict, and the reason I go to Al-Anon, it's hearing from my ex that sends me into a panicked state where I feel responsible for fixing my son's problems.
Sure enough, she was calling because his girlfriend had taken him to the emergency room after exhibiting signs of an overdose. On the phone, I would not have had time to think and would have been reacting to the panic in my ex's voice, rather than acting in a reasonable manner.
He is my son, so I felt the need to go to the hospital. That much I felt was true. After that, I had no clue what the appropriate thing to do was. What if he was dying? What if he was going to go to jail because he had been using heroin? What if he had to move back in with me? What if he was stealing? What if...?
It eventually occurred to me that I was seeing a blurry view, all smudgy and tinted. I needed to reach for my Al-Anon glasses to see clearly the situation that was in front of me. My son was in the hospital, so that meant he was getting the right care. I could evaluate the situation when I got there and decide the appropriate boundaries for myself then.
My little analogy of putting on my Al-Anon glasses came in handy. This way of looking at things helped me gather back some serenity in a stressful situation.

text: Politics 5 December 2011 The Fourth Reich, my trouble with 3D and why women don't swear Simon Heffer crosses swords with Richard Evans in the Wars of the Fourth Reich, minds his language, Sign up for our weekly email * Spot the dictatorThe ambition of part of a lifetime was attained when I read last week's New Statesman and saw that I had been upbraided by Richard Evans, Regius Professor of History in the University of Cambridge. I was honoured by being in excellent company: Sir Simon Jenkins also felt the professorial toecap up his fundament. Our offence? Writing in our respective newspapers that Germany was leading an anti-democratic putsch in Europe in order to preserve the EU's basket case of a single currency. Evidently short on both humour and powers of observation, the professor took exception to my use of the phrase "Fourth Reich", a usage that strikes me as being a statement of fact rather than a term of abuse. "Rhetoric such as Heffer's or Jenkins's is an unthinking throwback to the language of the post-reunification years, even more ignorant and hysterical now than it was then." In my experience of academics, they get adjectival when allowed into the press, usually to try to prove that English is not their second language. I cannot answer for Sir Simon, but I am bemused. One thing I always thought bound Gladstonian Liberals like me with lefties like Professor Evans was that we supported democracy. Thanks to Germany, and solely to Germany, we have just witnessed coups d'état in two European countries and the installation of unelected heads of government; and they may not be the last. If Professor Evans is relaxed about this, I'm not, and I doubt whether anyone other than a closet totalitarian should be. Blue notesNewspaper offices are famed for their climate of profanity, but when it comes to uttering four-letter words there is, I have always thought, a time and a place. I can't help noticing how people one would otherwise imagine perfectly respectable eff and blind in public without any regard for the sensibilities of their audience. I say "people" but I mean men, because I never overhear women on a Tube train having the sort of conversation I couldn't help but hear two men have a few days ago. Both in their thirties, and in suits and ties, they spoke something like this: "I f***ing told him that the c*** would shaft him if he let him have any f***ing say in the matter, but the c*** just f***ing ignored me." And so it was all the way from Tottenham Court Road to Liverpool Street, at a volume to be heard above the noise of the carriages. Perhaps nobody minds any more. You appear to be able to say anything on television these days, which I presume convinces those of a naturally coarse disposition that they can yell out these words in public. Women, as I say, don't do it. But do they still mind? Judging by the looks of clenched resignation on the faces of female passengers when these louts were sounding off, I think they might. Travelling blightNothing soothes more after a hard day at the cutting edge of the digital revolution than some mindless telly: and I rather enjoyed Pan Am when the series took off the other week on BBC2. The Americans do day-before-yesterday drama so much better than we do (cf Mad Men). I endured little of a recent BBC effort, The Hour, set in 1956, before hooting with derision at the solecisms and lack of attention to detail. The only thing that annoyed me about Pan Am was the reminder of how good airline food used to be: a wide selection, cooked and not microwaved, not much different from what one might find in a decent restaurant. I recently flew BA back from business in New York and was offered a selection of three of the most repellent meals imaginable - and that was in the dine-before-you-fly facility at JFK. My ticket wasn't cheap. Perhaps starving the passengers lightens the load and helps save on fuel. Two lenses right, three lenses rightsI love gadgets, but there is one that, as a man a couple of blinks short of a guide dog, I can't embrace: 3D vision. Contact lenses don't agree with me and, forced to wear specs, I can't also fit on the glasses that everyone else wears for the 3D cinema or TV experience. I suspect this may violate my human rights. Before Dave finally repatriates Britain's powers in this respect, I must see what my exclusion from this new vogue is worth. Now doubt a lawyer will soon be in touch - no win, no fee, of course. Sorry, Leon, euro on your ownIt is, I know, cruel to rub it in about the euro, but there weren't many of us 20 years ago who warned it wouldn't work (three cheers, as always, for Tony Benn, though). Yet I am astonished by the way that accredited euromaniacs still refuse to believe that the whole thing was doomed, or to say sorry for their part in seeking to inflict it upon us. One who should have known better was Lord Brittan. He claimed in the Financial Times last week that, had we joined the euro, things would have been different because of the size of our economy and our "influence". I knew it would be our fault eventually, and I hope Gordon Brown is properly ashamed of himself. Sorry, Leon, but wrong, wrong, wrong. Had we joined, there would still have been the fiscal disparities that did, in fact, bring the project to its knees. For Greece would still have had an entirely different benefits system from that of Germany; tax would still not have been collected as efficiently in Puglia and the Peloponnese as in Bavaria; and the European Commission would still not have brought errant countries into line by the system of fines and other penalties that the original plan for the euro had enshrined in it. I am sure Lord Brittan has no other agenda and believes sincerely in the great project. However, I do wish that when former Eurocrats like him inflict their views on us, they would do us all the courtesy of declaring their interest in making the points they do. They might let us into the secret of just how much, exactly, the EU pays them in pension entitlements. We might, then, be better informed as we make up our minds about how far to take them seriously.

What do you think ?
Yes, I am certainly an MP, a Member of Parliament as well as a likely Mincing Poodle. I am the 22 year long, 5 term member for the South Australian Federal electorate of Sturt/Stirt/Stert, details of which the AEC continue to get so wrong. As such, I've never had a real job, never had to meet a payroll, never taken a commercial risk and I've been locked into a system of entitlement for as long as I can remember. That said, I have no intention of forgetting. It is that good !
That lady from Altona, back in 2009, just put both MP notions on the public record. It was in the Parliament of the day and is a scenario from which I'm likely never to recover. Is anyone aware of the background to the term ? Well let me tell you.
Mincing means, I've been told, "affectedly dainty or delicate". That's fair enough.
Just before we go too much further, an explanation first-up, I'm sharing this page with one of my very dear Brisbane friends, Jan Power. More later !
In recent times past, my overall Parliamentary performances have been somewhat overshadowed by a couple of "from the hip" outbursts. More aggression, Joe said. He loves it it when my face reddens; he knows I'm on song."It's called sincere bashing", he said.
I really like my comment casually directed to the Leader of the Oppositon.This was pure gold. Here it is.
Bronwyn, the Madam Speaker, picked it up immediately, (watch the clip), but thankfully did nothing. As Tony would say, I think we got out of it.
More later.
Another recent newcomer to the Markets, is the progressive and increasingly popular, Mudgeeraba Spices. A colourful display awaits Marklet visitors, well stocked and enthusiastically serviced. Large crowds were the order during an early March exhibit.
We've listed here some recipes involving their range of products, with so much more info. on their websitewww.mudgeerabaspices.com.au It's a very good read !
South Indian Vegetable Curry
Murgh Makhani (Butter Chicken)
1kg chicken breast fillet cut into pieces, 50mls butter or ghee, 8 cloves garlic and 2 onions boiled until soft and pureed, ½ cup coconut cream, ½ cup natural yoghurt, ½ cup cream, 400g tin tomatoes pureed, 1 tsp fresh ginger chopped finely, 1 tbsp coriander leaves chopped finely, 1 tbsp chilli or capsicum chopped and seeded, 2 tsp sugar, 1 tbsp or 12.5 grams Butter Chicken Curry Blend, 1 tbsp almond meal (optional).
Melt the butter; add the chillies, ginger and coriander. Fry for a few minutes on medium heat, add the Butter Chicken Curry Blend and mix well and fry. Add the pureed onion and garlic and cook until mixture is well mixed, add the chicken and seal well, and then add the remaining ingredients. Cook until done and salt to taste. To thicken the gravy, simmer with the lid off until reaching the desired consistency. Garnish and serve hot with naan bread or rice and
Most importantly, the New Farm Park/Powerhouse Farmers' Markets are held on the second and fourth Saturday of every month. Thank you Jan.
Twenty years before Bronwyn Bishop was in Parliament she was on TV.
Caroline Wilson reveals the tricks of the trade that have made her the most popular figure in an unpopular party.
BRONWYN BISHOP was born to perform. The daughter of an opera singer, she learned how to breathe properly while listening, as a child, to her mother rehearse in her bedroom.
Kathleen Congreve was a dramatic soprano with the Australian Opera Company who also sent her daughter to singing lessons. If young Bronwyn never excelled as a songstress she can thank those lessons for her immaculate delivery. As a public speaker she has been averaging three performances a day, including weekends, for most of this year.
The same child never put her face to the sun and her complexion remains creamy white to this day. And she never blushes.
Like the famous hairdo she lets down only to wash, Bronwyn Bishop's face is always smooth, its wrinkles are few and never contorted and her lips always perfectly pencilled and colored.
All this whatever her latest performance, be it as a Rugby League hooker for a hammy magazine shoot or for an interview on the ABC's `Lateline', for which she has been willing to stand in a cow paddock at night, her stilettos slowly sinking into a patch of mud.Always the performance. She posed for `The Sunday Age' one freezing night last week in Collins Street outside the Athenaeum Club _ her chosen resting place in Melbourne.
``This is going to be a great picture," calls photographer Wayne Ludbey as the Liberal senator remains the embodiment of poise while trams and cars whiz past her. ``Remember me when you're in the Lodge.
Senator Bishop, 50, smiles her perfect smile. ``I will," she almost giggles
Our Saturday crowds are truly appreciative of the displays, the products and the presence of all Exhibitors. We have regularly featured individual exhibitors throughout the year, in the adjacent snippet of pics. and news. We'll continue to do so next year.
Long term exhibitors Edwin and Karen Clark continue to attract a lot of enquiries and interest from our Market visitors. For a long time, they have occupied that very public "change of direction" , just opposite our Fishmonger friend. Edwin and Karen at every opportunity upgrade their fascinationg display of maps and prints, some with much localness and others not so. The recent New Farm book releases "Reflections on New Farm " and " Tides of Teneriffe" are now included in the display. The website www.map-printmaker.com.au contains some great material.
I heard the comment that on days like these, we tend to see less pets !
We've got so many new ideas planned for upcoming sessions.
Our early 2010 timetables are listed here.
24th April 2010 – Saturday
8th May 2010 - Saturday
22nd May 2010 – Saturday
The current exhibitor GALLERY can be found via the lower RH Block.

Sasuke 10 tails host...the end
pe3far@ 2012-11-17 11:29 pm#37
Madara will get control over Juubi with his eyes, and Naruto will be the one to save it. Juubi has the ultimate hate, but Naruto will use his strong words and gets ride of its hate. the Juubi is the only way to overpower Madara with.
shishomaru 21@ 2012-11-17 08:37 pm#36
not only that but for now tsunade is dead, and since naruto is still young and learning shit, im thinking kakashi will be the 6th hokage if he makes it thru the war and madara doesnt kill him lmao
kasira@ 2012-11-16 09:37 am#35
congratulations!! no more first or second!!
shishomaru 21@ 2012-11-16 07:52 am#34
like i said b4 i think whoever sasuke is going to see is gonna turn him back to a good guy, but your right sum1 major has gotta die but i dont think its kakashi, if its not obito i gotta funny feeling it'll be BEE in some sort of sacrifice to save someone.. reason: his character hasnt been doing much but back-up even guy showed out so he's gotta do sumthing big.. just a thought
serenaandrosie@ 2012-11-15 07:01 pm#33
It was a really AWESOME chapter and I Also reckon we will see Sasuke very soon I really can't wait for that I really want to see who he was talking about as well
rishabhrk@ 2012-11-15 07:45 am#32
hope no one dies in the next chapter. kakashi please stay alive.
Izuall@ 2012-11-15 07:36 am#31
Im guessing sasuke will return and will other join naruto or fight him to the death win naruto wining and gaining his EMS...as a token of war.If he choses
to join naruto im guessing hes gona give him his spare pair of eyes together with the knoledge to unlock the rinnegan.That could be done by sasuke using tsukuyomi on naruto and training him there as it makes time pasing seem alot slower.
uzamaki1318@ 2012-11-15 06:02 am#30
good chapter... and as far as everyone saying the fight is over... its not... although the ten tails is stronger then the 9 tails.... u cant forget that naruto has a piece of 6 of the other 6 bijuus chakra... this is whats gonna make the difference... although the site of the ten tails begs the question... will infinate tsukonomi be activated.... cant wait till next weeks chapter
CrystalBall@ 2012-11-15 12:24 am#29
Why should naruto need sasuke help if all the nine juuby and jinchurikis said he s the one the sage told them to trust to... And even if, why everybody want sasuke redemption.. Think it would be better sasuke remains a damn bastard like he is. No redemption, please! The day sasuke gets back to be a good fellow manga finishes!!
william7@ 2012-11-14 10:38 pm#28
finally the tails tails emerges!!! Cant wait to see it in action!
lavail@ 2012-11-14 10:03 pm#27
It does look like Sasuke will finally be making his presence felt. Probably will start out with fighting Naruto, then somehow, they both will defeat Madara. Someone important usually dies during these types of battles, i'm hoping it's not Kakashi.
ObitoZetsu@ 2012-11-14 09:13 pm#26
O yeah ten tails has appeared!!!!
Mooneye creator@ 2012-11-14 08:42 pm#25
Now its time for sasuke to appear!
Deadai@ 2012-11-14 05:04 pm#24
This is a good point in time to get back to Sasuke n Orochimaru's travail I want to know who the f*ck this person they are talking about it is .-.
shishomaru 21@ 2012-11-14 04:54 pm#23
@123: yep thats the same thing i was thinkin which mweans kishi is gonna havta switch back over to sasuke pretty soon, but did anyone notice madara sitting down like he was bored? wasnt he fighting bee & guy.. that nigga took a time out and was still whoopin ass lmao, oh and when karama an naruto switch karama looked bored to which means naruto aint fighting at his full strength, cus that only happeneds when their both fighting right?
123erik4@ 2012-11-14 02:40 pm#22
If the sage off the six paths was the only one who can stop the 10TH tailed beast than that means that Naruto and sassuke needs to link their powers.
progtrance7@ 2012-11-14 02:22 pm#21
Nice chapter with the ten-tails revival and all but at this point I wanna see Sasuke IMO.

the one eye god has awaken,lets see what will happen next,i cant wait any longer
hoteo@ 2012-11-14 09:36 am#7
I'm guessing kishi had skipped so many scenes esp those of Madara's side of the fight. E.g guy sensei used his tiger jutsu, and if cried for pain when someone touched him after. So he would have opened the 8gates. So unfortunate can't see those fights. Can't wait for d next 2yrs when anime would catch up, lol.
Anyway, i think now that d Juubi is out, naruto's gonna show maybe some of his SO6P skills like the sealing jutsu he once used for 9tails, and a couple of others he's too dumb to know he's got till d 9tails tells him.
the chakra from d other bijuus i think itachi still left Shisui's eye with him
bluejay21@ 2012-11-14 09:24 am#6
zzsdkzz@ 2012-11-14 08:42 am#5
I don't think half of the people that read this manga.. actually -read- the manga.
Obito had rinnegan for one reason, it was for the Jinchur-Paths. He's not going to reflect or absorb anything, it's a waste of his chakra since he can go intangible at any point. Now that Kakashi can freely navigate into the Kamui realm? Maybe Obito will open up the Rinnegan for use.
Six Paths Of Pleasure@ 2012-11-14 08:36 am#4
Where was madara bitching all the time when obito was badly being hit??...and yes Rinnegan is just for showcase i guess and he doesn't use it!!
curse sasuke@ 2012-11-14 08:29 am#3
My question why does Obito have the rinnegan if hes not gonna use it :/
jisthone@ 2012-11-14 08:26 am#2

After 22 years in Tempe and then Scottsdale, HUB Clothing has relocated from its longtime home inside Scottsdale Fashion Square to a stylish new space in the heart of uptown Phoenix's bustling Central Corridor. Now open inside the handsomely restored 1940s storefront that also houses the popular Windsor restaurant and Churn ice cream shop, HUB Clothing (5213 N Central Ave., 602-277-HUBC/4822, www.hubclothing.com) features an all-new lineup of the season's best, most innovative men's and women's fashions and accessories, as well as its signature collection of designer denim. In fact, HUB Clothing – which previously introduced the Valley to renowned brands such as APC, Diesel, Nudie, J. Lindeberg, Pendleton Portland, Zanerobe, Cameo and Splendid – is the exclusive Arizona home to up-and-coming fashion brands such as FRAME Denim, D by D, Black Crane, Ch. (Chapter), Otter Wax, Mina Ro Mina and more.
And speaking of setting trends, HUB Clothing's latest location is also a function of changing tastes in the way people shop, says owner Jennifer Mumford. "I have felt a real shift in the Valley towards independent, locally-owned businesses over the last 5 years. The HUB customer is conscious of where they spend their money and is looking for a unique product and shopping experience. The HUB client was not interested in shopping at a mall anymore. They wanted a unique shopping experience and I think I delivered that." So when Mumford was presented the opportunity to take over a space in this red-hot revitalized section of north central Phoenix, she knew it would be "a perfect fit."
Inside HUB's new location, guests will discover a sleek, stylish space best described as "SoHo industrial loft meets Parisian pied-à-terre," Mumford says. Think painted concrete floors and bright, airy white-painted brick walls and exposed rafters, as well as white oak tabletops and custom lighting and shelving made from recycled, powder-coated plumbing fixtures. Mumford also consigned a custom white neon HUB Clothing sign, and added a cozy couch to the front patio so people can window shop in comfort as they eat their Churn ice cream.
But no matter where it's located, HUB Clothing will always be all about stylish, surprisingly affordable fashion, including being one of the few clothing boutiques that caters to men as much as women. "We carry about 60% men's wear, vs. most boutiques which are at least 80% women's clothing," Mumford says. This includes the latest men's looks for fall, which Mumford describes as urban street style with colorful graphic T's paired with cooler, cleaner grays, navy blues and blacks of the still-popular Americana look. Another top-seller is the Australian brand Zanerrobe, with its line of chino-legged, elastic-top pants, which Mumford says are both incredibly comfortable and easily transition from flip-flop weather to wintertime boots.
As for women's fall/winter fashions, aside from the latest denim by the London sensation, FRAME denim, Mumford says she's most excited by the LA-based, Asian-influenced designs of Black Crane, as well as the Australian designer of the moment, Cameo, with its combination of high-fashion Givenchy-style dresses at off-the-rack prices.
HUB Clothing is open daily (Sun. – Wed. 10 am – 7 pm; Thur. – Sat. 10 am – 8 pm). For more information please call 602-277-HUBC (4822) or visit www.hubclothing.com.

Congressman Bill Cassidy, M.D. released the following statement regarding the 10th anniversary of September 11th.
"Today, we pause to honor, remember, and to pray for those taken on 9/11 - at the Twin Towers, the Pentagon, and aboard those four airplanes. We honor their memories, recall their heroic final moments, and pledge our unwavering compassion and support to the friends and families they left behind. So too do we honor the lives, unwavering commitment, and bravery of the men and women serving in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere in the War on Terror, who have kept us free and safe from another major attack in the days since.
"Ten years ago today, I was driving to my clinic at Earl K Long Hospital when the radio announced that both Twin Towers had been hit. We then knew America was under attack. I felt, as did we all, incomparable sadness for those lost and anger at those who committed these acts of war - but also incomparably blessed and thankful to be an American and aware of our responsibility to serve our country, however we could. One way we serve is to participate in events which remember 9/11.
"Thousands will gather today in New York, Washington, and Pennsylvania at the memorials established to celebrate the lives and remember the sacrifice of the victims of 9/11. But to borrow words from the commemoration of another field of sacrifice, we should recall that we cannot dedicate -- we cannot consecrate -- we cannot hallow the grounds of these memorials, more than did the deaths of those whom we honor. What we can do, and must do, is ensure that this nation, under God, shall not be intimidated nor defeated by those who seek to destroy our life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness. Rather we must preserve these things, as a way of life for us, as an example for all nations and as a hope for all people."

Valley School commemorates valiant student
If veracity, tenacity, vitality, bravery, spirit and kindness are the traits held by angels, then Maggie Elder certainly holds a prime seat on the governing board of the heavens, according to those who knew her best.
"Faith crushes fear" was Maggie's mantra, and she held strong to that, even when she found out that she had cancer in 2011, even when she struggled to walk, couldn't take part in school dances, felt compassion for loved ones affected by her struggles — even when she learned there was nothing more doctors could do.
Maggie passed away in February 2012, at age 11, at home among those she loved most, from Ewing's Sarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer that affects mostly children and adolescents.
Although her physical being has passed, her endearing and enduring spirit has been forever encapsulated in the Valley School of Ligonier's Maggie Elder Caldecott Collection.
Family members, friends, classmates, teachers and acquaintances officially welcomed the collection on Feb. 12 with a public opening — an atmosphere far from somber, as hugs, laughs and reminiscing took place.
"I think this is a wonderful idea in the name of someone who sounds like a very special little girl. I've heard of schools setting aside a reading corner or a bench in honor of somebody, but this is the first time I've heard of anything specific to the Caldecott Collection," said Marion Rutsch, Caldecott Medal committee chairwoman of the Washington, D.C. area.
The Caldecott Medal is a national award granted to outstanding childrens' picture books — books that Maggie found comfort in during her sickness.
Since its inception in 1937, The Valley School of Ligonier managed to collect every book ever granted the award, amassing nearly 350, and with each new award granted, will continue to do so.
Maggie's mother, Cyndi McGinnis, said her daughter had a real love for reading.
"It was a way we could all spend quality time," said McGinnis. "This is the perfect way to honor her."
The task was no easy one. Mallory Reese, director of development at the school, resorted to serious detective work — some books were out of print, some could not be located and some had to be re-ordered due to the condition.
Included in the collection is the poetry compilation that Maggie's classmates put together in her honor. Her classmates were only in fifth grade at the time, but their words are ones of true transcendence.
Zoe Shaffer, now 12, wrote, "You said good night to earth, and good morning to heaven," while Prosser Cathey, now 12, penned, "A horse/running wild and free/but she fell, laming her leg/when she reached the top of the golden steps/the angels greeted her with a banner.In a fitting tribute, Chloe Pohland, now 13, reflected "Her life/like a book/a beloved book/a book I never wanted to end."
Maggie wrote her own book about her experiences. When Maggie became too ill to write herself, school librarian Karen Koza transcribed for her. Some of Maggie's own insights included ageless inspiration, such as "fears are like questions — after the questions are answered," "I'm not scared anymore," "cancer can't take away love" and "My mom — my family is my Make-A-Wish."
She also goes on to describe her hospital meeting with Troy Palomalu, describing him as "gentle and spiritual — funny he is a big bulky football player."
Among some of the students' favorite books in the Caldecott Collection includes the 1951 book "T-Bone." At this, Maggie's stepfather, Jim McGinnis, who quit his job as an engineer to care for her, smiles, "It's funny — steaks were all she ever wanted to eat."
Maggie echoed this, chronicling, "Whenever I craved Jim's twice-baked potatoes and steak, he made it. He helped me walk again — and when I fell, he picked me right up. Jim is the best stepdad ever."
Perhaps serving as the perfect metaphor for Maggie's young but brilliant life Rutsch added, "There is a lot of sophistication to these books — themes of friendship and resilience. There is lots of careful design, pacing and moments of revelation. There is a lot packed into those pages."
And illuminated forever, with fortitude, grace, friendship and love, are the magnificent pages of Maggie Elder.

A recent protest from HTML standards editor Ian Hickson that DRM web video proposal from Google, Microsoft, and Netflix to the W3C raises broader questions about the success of standards--and possibly signals the re-igniting of the browser wars.
Hickson's remarks are very well covered by Steven Shankland over at CNET, an article that you should most definitely read if you have any interest in standards whatsoever. (And even if you don't.)
The thrust of the article was to point out Hickson's concerns over the fallacy of introducing Encrypted Media Extensions technologies to the W3C. These extensions, if approved, would introduce DRM (digital rights management) capabilities to HTML5-provided video, something these three companies, at least, believe that is necessary.
Currently, DRM is handled by plug-ins, but the whole point of HTML5 is to move away from plug-ins, and the introduction of such extensions, Hickson argues, would be be tantamount to keeping plug-ins around.
"'The DRM proposal is just a plug-in platform in disguise. You still have proprietary plug-ins, it's just that the DRM proposal calls them 'CDMs,' or content decryption modules,' he said. 'It defeats the entire point of HTML <video>.'"
Reading this piece, I begin to wonder (again) where Mozilla's Firefox was going to fit in all of this. The addition of such extensions to Microsoft's Internet Explorer and Google's Chrome browser would essentially re-introduce the kind of silliness that was going on back when I was the editor of Browserwatch, and competing browser extensions on IE and Netscape Navigator were all the rage.
I worry a bit about Firefox, I know. But when I see things like this, coupled with announcements like Adobe's decision to only support Flash for Linux on the ChromeOS platform (thus neatly locking out Flash on Firefox), I can't help but be concerned about the long-term future of Firefox.
That's why, for example, I was pretty stoked about the new Boot to Gecko project, Mozilla's new effort to revive the old Netscape idea of browser as platform.
Because Mozilla finally seems to be pivoting away from its' sole Firefox-revenue business plan, I am not as doom-and-gloom as pundits like Adrian Kingsley-Hughes, who predicts that the changes by Adobe could spell bad news for Firefox. I will agree with Kingsley-Hughes only up to a point: the lack of Flash on Firefox for Linux may be a pain in the tuchus, but hardly more than that, because of the reasons outlined above and because, well, who really gives a darn about Flash anymore?
These kerfuffles over DRM extensions in HTML5 and Adobe's abandonment of Linux are but two examples of what seems to be a slow and subtle repositioning in the browser sector over the coming of HTML5. The introduction of the new standard is forcing browser companies to take a good hard look at what they can do to differentiate themselves from the competition.
This is a source of frustration to me, because every time it seems like we've all gotten out collective acts together to work with a single standard, something comes along to screw it up. In this case, the idea that feature differentiation is so important for competition, it's necessary to make unnecessary alterations or additions to the standard… which pretty much defeats the point of the standard.
The frustration is not just that this is happening, but also that I, for one, can't seem to puzzle out a better way. I understand competition, of course, but is software development forever destined to never compete on a level playing field?
Some might argue that it has to be this way, because if one developer or company doesn't come along and radically change the rules once in a while, we don't get innovative leaps.
Still, it feels like this does a great disservice to those whom software is supposed to benefit the most: the end user, who is forever forced to make choices about what to use based on format lock-ins and other ways to keep them hooked in.
This is something that standards were supposed to help alleviate, but it seems the lesson has been lost again.

Ke$ha Disses Britney Spears, Immediately Backpedals
A reportedly "new song" by soggy glitter bomb, Ke$ha, was unofficially released on YouTube today. The song is grabbing attention because the lyrics directly attack Britney Spears.
In the song "Styrofoam," Ke$ha sings: "In ten years/ Britney Spears/ Britney…who?" Because, you know, it isn't like Britney has been making music for the past 12 years.
The song caused an outrage and Ke$ha went on immediate damage control, giving an interview to So You Think You Can Dance (the first place stars turn to clear their name), saying that she didn't write the song, that it was recorded when she was 15 (in 2003) and that she chose not to include it on her Animal record because she has "mad respect" for Britney.
However, a few things don't add up about Ke$ha's excuses for the song. For one thing, the "Styrofoam" song talks about sleeping with guys, smoking cigarettes, partying and getting tattoos–not exactly the type of subject matter a 15-year-old would sing about, even with Ke$ha's "bad ass" posturing.
Ke$ha has a couple major reasons to backpedal but the biggest one may be that she sang back-up vocals on Britney Spears' song "Lace and Leather." Oops!
Watch the two videos below and decide for yourself if Ke$ha is telling the truth:

Berry is a 6-1 point guard from Apopka, Fla. He plays for Coach Jason Vallery at Lake Highland Preparatory in Orlando, Fla.
"Joel is an outstanding young man who has been the player of the year in the state of Florida in each of the last two seasons," says Williams. "He is a true quarterback on the floor, but he has the ability to score as well. He's a leader and an excellent student. His teammates enjoy playing alongside him."
Jackson is a 6-8 wing from Tomball, Texas. He plays for Coach Mike Decker for the Homeschool Christian Youth.
"Justin has tremendous ability, but is getting better and better," says Williams. "He's 6-8 with perimeter skills. He performed well last summer against tough competition, including at USA Basketball events. He is slender at this point, but will be able to get stronger and can add a great deal to his body. But he has wonderful skills and is a great student."
Pinson is a 6-6 wing from Greensboro, N.C. He plays for Coach Keith Gatlin at Wesleyan Christian Academy in High Point, N.C.
"Theo's versatility is a big part of his game," says Williams. "He can do almost everything on the court and do it well. He can handle the ball, pass, defend and he has tremendous savvy. His family did a great job guiding him through tough competitions with USA Basketball, playing summer basketball and winning state championships. I love his versatility which allows him to play multiple positions, which is something we always like in a player.
"He's really a basketball player. He makes instinctive plays. He's 6-5, 6-6, athlete, but he knows how to play -- he really does. I saw him play one game where he was almost belligerently screaming at a guy to get the ball inbounds faster ... he saw the play developing and he was foul line top of the key extended on the sideline just screaming at the guy, but as soon as it hit his hands it goes another 40 feet and a guy catches and lays it up on the other end. The instinctive ability, the savvy that he has. He's really a good defender - has an opportunity to be a big time defender. His shot is getting better. But the easiest way to describe him is that he's a basketball player."

Arenas Del Mar is Costa Rica's first and only hotel that combines 5 Stars and 5 Sustainability Leaves (the highest rating possible in both categories). Both certifications were awarded by the Costa Rican Tourism Ministry ICT. Please read through the experiences of other guests – honeymooners, a couple of sophisticated mature travelers, and a family with children – to get a better idea if "Arenas Del Mar person" is for you. Or check out our Trip Advisor page.
Name: Andrea and Robert Toser
Age: 27 (Andrea), 31 (Robert)
Profession: Executive Recruiter (Andrea) and Attorney (Robert)
From: Phoenix, Arizona, USA
Robert: We decided to go to Costa Rica for our honeymoon because we had heard so many great things from our fellow friends. We were looking for a place that would allow us to relax by the beach and hang out doors while still providing us with a certain level of comfort. Arenas Del Mar was a great find.
Andrea: The location was absolutely incredible. We had views of the surrounding Pacific ocean and access to the most beautiful private beach. The food was absolutely incredible as well: monkeys were swinging by while we ate breakfast!
Name: Allison and Gregory Christensen
Age: 58 (Allison), 60 (Gregory)
Profession: Retired School Teacher (Allison) and Commercial Real Estate Developer (Gregory)
From: Austin, Texas, USA
Allison: Our kids had recently gone on a trip to Costa Rica and couldn't stop raving about how beautiful it was. We had never been to Central America and decided to give it a shot. They recommended visiting Manuel Antonio due to its beautiful beaches and wildlife. We found Arenas Del Mar on the internet and couldn't have been more pleased with our experience.
Gregory: The guided hikes were absolutely incredible. Our nature guide was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We were able to see so many different animals such as monkeys, sloths, iguanas and more. And the hikes were just the right pace: rigorous without being overly strenuous. We were also able to relax in our jacuzzis after a day of hiking, which was a great treat.
Name: Justine, Arnold, William, Jenny and Christopher Johnson
Age: 41 (Justine), 42 (Arnold), 12 (William), 11 (Jenny) and 8 (Christopher)
Profession: Writer (Justine) and Advertising Executive (Arnold)
From: White Plains, New York, USA
Arnold: We have heard so many great things about Costa Rica and were so excited for this trip. Arenas Del Mar really gave us the opportunity to do everything we wanted: rainforest hiking, horseback riding, surfing and so much more. We even went on one of those canopy tours. It was the perfect place for all of us.
Justine: The accommodations were absolutely BEAUTIFUL. I had never seen such breathtaking views in my entire life. Plus, we were all able to find things that we liked. I was able to relax by the beach with Christopher while Arnold, Jenny and William took surfing lessons. We were also able to go on some incredible hikes together in Manuel Antonio National Park. We loved every second of our trip.

Virtual Game Station: where is it? I have received unconfirmed reports that Sony intends to sue Connectix over its Virtual Game Station emulator. Whatever the truth may be, Connectix has made no announcement as to when the software will be generally available. It was sold at Macworld Expo but is not yet in any catalog or retail outlets.
Epson 800 driver alternative Epson may have removed the 5.1AE driver for the Epson Stylus 800. But Mike Sellers found that the USB driver for the Epson 800 worked fine on his Performa 6400/180. He simply removed the 4 USB extensions. Marc Giroux reports that the Epson 850 driver also works fine with the 800.
SmartPort and Palm PDA PilotMac notes that the unsupported HotKey Switching SmartPorts Update "allows you to keep the physical connection to the PortDoubler while allowing you to manually switch between ports." With this update, you can also HotSync using PortDoubler and the latest beta release of the MacPac2. HotSyncing did not work with the regular SmartPort extension.
Eudora Planner beta The current beta 7 version of Eudora Planner expired 1/1/99. Bob Carr contacted Qualcomm and got a new serial number to keep it going. They also told him that an entirely new beta version should be out by next week.
DiskGuard is gone but Norton Disk Doctor still won't run Brett Wickens had DiskGuard on his PowerBook G3. He then uninstalled it. However, Norton Disk Doctor still refused to run, citing that the drive is still protected by security software. Disk First Aid runs with no problem. He adds: "I assume there is some driver level business that DiskGuard is leaving in place, even though there is no protection active, and that NDD is finding and misinterpreting this as protection."
TeleMagic patch Scott Mesch writes: "I use an older database application called TeleMagic v12. It would not work beginning in 1999. I found a way to apply a patch to make it work. If any one is interested in the patch, email me."
AOL 4.0 and GV TelePort v.90 Andy Jelagin found that "the final release of AOL 4.0 is now compatible with Global Village TelePort x2 modems,that have been upgraded to v.90. The supplied script (Global Village x2/v.90) works like a charm - no more time-out errors."
Update: Jan Herman found just the opposite to be true. "Not only does the connection keep crashing after 3-4 minutes but is slower."
Quark and 8.5 font problem A web page displays a bold font problem with QuarkXPress and Mac OS 8.5.
Palm to iMac? Vikash Bhagwandin queries about how to HotSync a Palm PDA to an iMac. As the iMac does not have a serial port, there is no immediate way to do this (other than via a Palm modem, which costs extra money and is much slower). Infrared communication might work, but infrared support has been dropped from the new iMac/266. A serial-to-USB adapter might also work, but I have no reports from people trying this as yet. [I imagine a similar issue exists for the new Power Mac G3s.]
Sonnet PPC card for Quadras Sonnet Technologies announced Presto PPC, a PowerPro 601 upgrade card for the Quadra 700/800/900/950 and Quadra/Centris 610/650 computers. Sonnet will be providing a Mac OS 8.5 enabler for existing Daystar Digital Power Pro 601 customers. Sonnet also announced a G3 upgrade via the L2 Cache slots for "PCI Bus Power Macintosh and Performa computers that were not built with a processor slot and upgradable daughter card."
PowerLogix Z-Force PowerLogix has announced the Z-Force Accelerator System for Power Macintosh and clones. From a press release: The Z-Force System takes the best features of the popular PowerForce G3 and combines it with the easy upgradeability of a ZIF processor module. The Apple standard ZIF ("zero insertion force") processor module is used in all PowerMac G3s. The Z-Force System eliminates obsolescence by allowing easy migration to future processor technology, and also offers flexibility by adapting a ZIF socket (used on the latest PowerMacs) to all older PCI Power Macs."
Server problems again MacFixIt had several server crashes again yesterday. I think the problem is fixed. We'll see.

  <meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" http-equiv="Content-Type">   There is one point that I should have mentioned when I voiced my concerns. My money already is at Redwood Credit Union and I have no intent to move it to Monster Bank. The negatives associated with BofA et al are much worse than the concerns that will come after the large influx of money into Little Bank and Credit Union.

I utterly agree that we need systemic bank reform, so BofA et al, if still viable a year from now, don't swallow up every Little Bank in the country. I used to bank at Hibernia, a small bank on Castro Street. Then it became part of four other banks before finally being swallowed by BofA. (When customers are more stable than their banks, we have trouble.)

 But, moving money out of the Big Banks is a step to create pressure for systemic reform, so it's still a good idea.

 I've been banking at San Francisco Federal Credit Union since 1999. They used to be the SF City Employee Credit Union, just as the Fire Credit Union used to be only for local fireifghters. Anyone who lives or works in SF can open an account there. They're nice people.

 They DO have computers! I don't think doubling their customer base will lead to mass RSI. Their main branch is at 770 Golden Gate, a few block north of City Hall. They have three (count 'em -- 3) ATMs in the Civic Center area. But they belong to the same Credit Union union of ATM others do, so you can use many. I do nearly everything online, anyway.

 As to the 'big' financial services they don't offer: There are some.

 The housing coop i live in tried to refi through them a few years ago, but we categorized as 'commercial,' not single-family housing, even though we're a non-profit homeowner group, so they wouldn't. But then our big-ass bank, Wells Fargo, the same year sent us a letter saying, 'We just abolished your $100,000 line of credit -- not because of a damned thing about YOUR finances or payment history, which is perfect, but because of ours!' Don't count on Big Bank services as lenders.

 I recommend that NB move AN account with SOME money over to a local credit union. NB can still keep a toe in the Big Bank water, if we think we may need them someday.

 I have a strong feeling that Move Your Money is going to be a mixed blessing to all involved. These are small, sometimes sleepy institutions that often rely on doing less common operations manually because that is appropriate to current scale. What is going to happen when the sudden influx of customers overwhelms manual operations?

 I strongly support move your money. I also recommend patience with your new institutions while they scale up. Consider how good it will be for community investing if we all move our money into small banks, and then just as they commit finances to new systems we move our money back out.

 Pessimistically I also wonder how much we are going to see of cases of moving our money to Little Bank of San Francisco only to find six months later that Little Bank of San Francisco is bought by Bank of America. I guess this is why we need various legislation.

Malaysian free-trade talks to start
Page Tools
Australia and Malaysia are expected to begin talks on a free trade agreement today when Malaysian Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi meets with Prime Minister John Howard and cabinet ministers.
Mr Abdullah arrived in Canberra last night to begin a four day visit to Australia, the first by a Malaysian leader in 21 years.
His visit will coincide with the release of a scoping study into a proposed free trade deal between the two countries which found both countries would substantially benefit from more open trade.
The study is expected to be be adopted today, paving the way for formal FTA negotiations.
Two-way trade between the two countries is worth $10 billion, much of it focused on Australia's education exports to Malaysia.

There are a lot of key people in the Business Process Analysis arena, wherein everyone is expected to drive at one single goal that is to cut costs while demonstrating wise use of company resources to better support customers. These special teams of individuals are also known as Business Analysts (BAs).
It is indeed true that the scope of Business Process Analysis is so vast that business analysts are given options to specialize in one of these three categories that constitute the scope of business analysis. These are the following:
(a) Strategists Business analysts under this category are more focused on developing strategic plans on a continuous basis. They are very well-versed in analyzing the profile of a certain organization and its environment. Coming up with such an analysis can serve as a recommendation for top level management with a comprehensive discussion of its effects on the policy decision-making process.
(b) Architects These types of business analysts are not focused on IT-related issues but of business process improvement (BPI) or reengineering. Architects possess hard and soft skills that are needed in the business redesign or improvement phase. Hard skills include business process modeling and soft skills consist of requirements engineering, stakeholder analysis and knowledge of the business.
(c) Systems Analysts The role of these types of business analysts is to better understand and define the requirements of IT systems to get the best returns out of these investments. The main focus of systems analysts is always into the IT-related part of the change process.
