In was in 1981 that Tacomans first put feet to pavement for Pierce County AIDS Foundation's (PCAF) inaugural AIDS Walk. Back then, no one knew that the disease would hang on this long without a cure, but here we are in 2011 still raising funds for PCAF's critically important HIV prevention, care and advocacy services that help thousands of South Sound residents every day.
On Sept. 24, the 20th annual Pierce County AIDS Walk kicks off from Broadway to support those infected and affected by HIV/AIDS – to honor the memory of those lost and to uplift the men, women and children who continue to live with the disease – and their families, friends and caregivers.
This is not to say the AIDS Walk is a somber or mournful event; rather, it is an empowering, family-friendly reason to get out and breathe some fresh air and enjoy music, food, friends and an invigorating dose of empowerment.
The event starts with joyful music. At 9 a.m. walkers can dig the pulsing rhythms and harmonious melodies of UnderWater Radar, a four-piece, neo-soul world beat fusion band fronted by PCAF case manager Evelyn Aba Aako on vocals. Then, words of encouragement will be shared by Walk emcee Benjii Bittle, deputy executive director at Broadway Center. PCAF Executive Director Dwayne Wilkerson will also speak about the work PCAF does and why it is still important for the community to help keep this organization strong. After fueling up on breakfast provided by Metropolitan Market and Starbucks, walkers will start the route carrying red ribbons that bear the names of those who have lost their lives to HIV/AIDS.
"This is (PCAF's) biggest event," Wilkerson said, noting that the Walk gives PCAF a way to reach out to the broader community and spread the message that AIDS is not over.
"Work is still needed at this time when people think AIDS is not a problem anymore." He said PCAF now has more clients than ever before, as more people with HIV/AIDS are living longer thanks to advancements in medicine, and that new infections continue to be diagnosed across the state every day.
"By keeping people healthy and on their meds, that reduces their ability to transmit the virus to others."
Wilkerson said that approximately 20 percent of HIV positive people in Pierce County do not know they are positive. "Our message is that we really want you to get tested if you're at risk – if you have unprotected sex or if you're sharing needles. If you've done either of those things in the past six months, you need to get tested." PCAF offers free and anonymous testing – learn more at www.piercecountyaids.org or call (253) 383-2565.
This type of information, and more, will be available at the Walk. The goal this year is to raise $100,000. Funds raised will go to a number of PCAF resources including its housing program, transportation vouchers, mental health services, chemical dependency programs and support groups. "We also have our amazing prevention department that's out there getting the word out about PCAF and how to protect yourself," according to Walk coordinator and PCAF Development Officer Stacy Ellifritt. She said the turnout this year of pre-registrants is looking good. "It's heartwarming that people want to give to something for the welfare of our community."
Wilkerson said that with federal and state funding shrinking at a time when the number of PCAF clients is increasing, the community's help is sorely needed. "We look for AIDS Walk funding to fill those gaps," Wilkerson said. "More and more (PCAF clients) are having trouble staying in their homes and paying utility bills and even meeting their basic needs." Not only does PCAF help clients with their utility bills, the foundation's essential needs bank provides clients with things like cleaning supplies, toothbrushes and other items not available at food banks or that cannot be purchased with food stamps.
Registrations for the Walk can be done online up to the day of the event at www.piercecountyaids.org. "It's never too late to register and come out to walk with us," Ellifritt said.

Dear Budget Fashionista,
I have a pair of Oh Deer! Garbo (the spittin' image of the Christian Louboutin Bruges down to the red sole) that I got for a steal on QVC. Anyway, how do i care for the cork? Do i seal it and make it water-resistant with a spray? Or since cork is porous do I leave it as-is? I live in MI and while I will not be wearing these trudging some place uphill both ways in 10-ft of snow, I want to make sure I'm covered.
Answer: Take the shoes to your nearest cobbler and have them put a clear sealant on the cork—should cost more than $10 for the pair. Cork can rot if not properly protected, and having a cobbler do this will make sure it's done right.

Lawn repair with Cool Weather Grasses vs. Warm Grasses
The type of grass growing in your lawn depends more on the variability of sunlight and the variety of the existing soil, then it does on the outside temperature.
Did you know different type of grasses in different parts of the country grow differently. Warm weather grasses such as those found in southern California, Florida much of the south and the south eastern coast are thicker, warm weather grasses.
Generally speaking, the hotter it gets, the better warm weather grasses grow. The faster growing time for these grasses is when the weather is between 85 and 95 degrees. Warm weather grasses are a lot better at repairing themselves or self lawn repair. They are also more vigorous and grow by shooting rhizomes out in many different directions at once. Two of the most common types of warm weather grasses are St. Augustine and Bermuda grasses.
Cool weather grasses are a lot different. These are predominately the types of grasses that grow in the north west. Although this grass grows like crazy in the spring and the fall, it grows a lot slower in the winter and the summer. Part of the slow grow in the summer is due to the hardening of the soil. This compacts roots and prevent water absorption. In the winter, many of backyards in the northwest see less than 4 hours of sunlight a day.
Cool grasses grow in a circular pattern and are far less vigorous than warmer grasses. These grasses also face a few other problems including poor drainage and competition from moss. Lawns that don't get a lot of sunlight in the winter may be replaced by moss (which has a shallow root system and needs less sunlight.) Cool grasses includes different varieties of fescue and ryegrass.
The best way to maintain a lawn healthier is to mow higher and mow more often. As a general rule don't moth your lawn under 2 inches and mow regularly so that you never have to cut more than 1/3 of the blade at a time. Both types of grass benefit from longer, less frequent watering as a method to help develop the roots.
If you have trouble with your lawn, you may want to consider using a lawn sweeper.

Right click on the file you want to edit, and select Open With. You can then choose an external application to edit the file. You can leave the Book View version of the file displayed in Sigil, and edit the HTML code in your external text editor/HTML editor. When you save your edits in the external application, Sigil will update the file. Remember to close the file in the external application before editing the file in Sigil again or you will lose data.
This also applies to images (right click on the image in Book Browser, or on the image as its displayed in Book View or on the image's tab).
And it applies to CSS files. So you can change your CSS and see the results of your style changes immediately without having to change tabs in Sigil (although since cursor positions and style updates are now working properly its just as easy to do this in Sigil).

A 55-year-old estimator who was laid off after 34 years with Lucent Technologies, based in Murray Hill, won a significant settlement in a textbook age-discrimination case.
The estimator had a long history of good reviews, including one just before he was let go in which his work was rated as "outstanding." Younger workers with lower ratings were kept on.
Age-discrimination suits are hot. Make sure managers don't factor age into employment decisions.

on the occasion of the
Opening Ceremony of the
XXXIIIrd International Conference
of the Round Table on Archives (CITRA)
Stockholm, Sweden
9 September 1998
Honorable Minister,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
It is my great pleasure to be with you this morning and to bring you the best wishes of the Director-General of UNESCO for the success of this year's CITRA Conference. This is an outstanding event, not only because it takes place as ICA turns fifty years old – something we will celebrate tomorrow - but also because of its venue in Stockholm, the cultural capital of Europe.
Sweden is generously hosting your Conference and so we once again enjoy your splendid hospitality. We already had a taste of it in spring this year when the Swedish Government and UNESCO organized the Intergovernmental Conference on Cultural Policies for Development. As the Director-General of UNESCO, Federico Mayor, said on that occasion: "Sweden demonstrates an authentic attachment to international co-operation and its awareness of the central role which culture plays in the development of society".
The important role of archives in cultural development was underlined in the report of the World Commission on Culture and Development, whose work was the basis for the spring conference here in Stockholm. Archives, as Jean-Pierre Wallot states in the report, "provide vital landmarks, evidence of how human history was made. They are therefore a necessary element of democratic governance and accountability; it is important that governments provide easy access to them".
In choosing the technological challenges of access to archival information as this year's theme, the CITRA Conference makes an important contribution to the all important discussion of technique and content in the Information Society. The issue has a strong ethical dimension, which is both adequate and timely.
The Information Society requires UNESCO and its partners to play a unique role in ensuring the "free exchange of ideas and knowledge" as the Organization is mandated to do by its Constitution. One of our goals therefore is to redefine the meaning of universal access to information and to see how the new definition affects other aspects of the Information Society. Another area of great concern for UNESCO is "content" in the Information Society. Both these issues are linked to others such as freedom of expression, freedom of access to information, democracy, cultural identity and diversity and the empowerment of developing economies, to name a few.
The principal tenet of believers in the Information Revolution and the Information Society is that information highways will eventually provide universal access to services that have so far been available to only a few, open up vast opportunities for accessing and sharing information and thereby empower men and women in every aspects of their lives. This, in turn, will lead to increased democratic participation in all societies and greater communication, understanding and tolerance among people world-wide.
Utopia within our grasp? Perhaps not. There is still very real danger that the "Information Revolution" will simply increase the gap between developing and developed countries and generate new gaps between those who have access to information and those who do not, between the rich and poor whether they be in the industrialized or the developing countries. High technology may well, once again, outrun social justice.
The economic logic reflected in the price of the Internet backbone applies to both developing and developed countries. In a number of developing countries, the rigid telecommunications monopoly enjoyed by a government owned operator with low business efficiency is one of the major obstacles to citizens using the Internet for economic development. The cultural concentration of the international information flow may therefore be somewhat diluted if policies to encourage market competition in the national telecommunications sector are introduced.
Any cultural or linguistic dominance observed in electronic media is therefore the result of the collective economic activities of those who are providing telecommunication services at lowest cost. When we complain in Europe about the high level concentration of information from the USA via the Internet, we should really be complaining about the telecom costs in Europe. At present it is much cheaper to communicate across the Atlantic than within EU. The prices on the backbone intra European network are five times higher than those for the same distances in the US. This is how economic logic is shaping the flow of information. However it is only one of the aspects of the challenges to the free and balanced access to information and I am certain that you will discuss many others during the coming days.
We need to think carefully about talk of cultural domination imposed by this or that country, because the time has come to see where the real roots of cultural dominance lie. It is not only in the telecommunication economies. The roots are widespread. An air ticket from Paris to Stockholm costs three times more than one from Paris to New York.
The new technologies are not however simply quantitative and in the field of archives they can provide access which is qualitatively different. One example of this are the embryons of virtual archives which already exist in Cyberspace.
Technology as such is important only if you do not have it. The telephone is a vital piece of technology if you do not have one. One you have a telephone, what matters above all is what you say into it.
The Information Society is raising more and more new questions concerning privacy and public access to archives with the result that ethics are very rapidly are becoming a central issue. UNESCO's mission is an ethical one. We are an Organization for international intellectual co-operation and as such acutely aware of the importance of cultural diversity, reciprocity and above all inter-cultural dialogue. UNESCO reaffirms each day that every culture is a collective memory, a shared past and present, which provides the human identity with innate dignity. We know that many many perhaps numberless memories lie in archives all over the world.
As you may imagine, from what I have said, I sincerely wish your meeting best success.

Up next: Stalk borers in corn
Stalk borers are notorious for killing or stunting the corn row next to fences, grassy waterways, and conservation terraces. Control measures can be taken to prevent this damage, but fields must first be scouted on a timely basis.
Stalk borer larvae have already hatched in Iowa and most of the larvae are now inside brome or other grasses, and in giant ragweed. However, a few stalk borers may already be in corn because they moved there first instead of to the grass. Eventually, the stalk borers in the grass get too large for the grass stems and they disperse in search of larger-diameter plants, which often is corn.
Degree days and migration
We are approaching the dates for southern Iowa when stalk borers will move out of grass and into corn. Approximately 10 percent of the larvae will move out of the grass by 1,400 degree days (base 41°F) and 50 percent of the larvae will have moved by 1,700 degree days. When 1,300-1,400 degree days have occurred in your area (see map on page 82), scout to determine whether the larvae are moving into corn. These dates predict when 10 percent of the larvae will move into corn.
January 1, 2000 through May 21, 2000 Base-41 degree days and projected migration dates.
Scouting border rows
Scout corn adjacent to grass terraces, waterways, ditches, and fencerows; and especially those areas where stand loss has occurred in previous years. Stalk borers don't crawl very far from grass, so only the first four rows of corn next to grass would need to be sprayed. Look for small larvae resting inside the whorls or for new leaves with feeding holes.
Larvae feeding in the whorl, but that haven't tunneled into the plant, can be killed with an insecticide. The smaller the corn, the more likely it is to be killed by stalk borers. Once corn reaches the 7-leaf stage (V7 stage), stalk borers are unlikely to kill the plants.
Fields with ragweed
An exception to the border row problem is when weedy grasses or giant ragweed are growing throughout a cornfield. If these weeds are killed with herbicides, the stalk borers move out of the weeds and into the corn. Stalk borers can destroy a corn stand under these circumstances. To prevent this destruction, an insecticide should be tank mixed with the herbicide (if it is a fast burndown herbicide) or the field should be sprayed with the insecticide approximately 7 days after the herbicide (if it is a slow burndown herbicide). Be sure to read the insecticide label before mixing pesticides.
Bt corn
In some of our experiments, we have found that Bt corn suppresses or slows down stalk borer injury. Bt corn does not have the same effect on stalk borers as it does on European corn borers, so don't expect complete control of this pest in Bt corn.
Economic thresholds
The economic thresholds can help in deciding whether to apply an insecticide (Table 1). These thresholds are based on the percentage of infested plants, and assume $13 per acre control costs and 80 percent control with an insecticide. If the number of infested plants exceeds the percentage given for the plant stage, then an insecticide application can be economically justified. Young plants have a lower threshold because they are more easily killed than older plants. Scouting is not necessary beyond the V7 developmental stage.
Table 1. Stalk borer economic thresholds at $2 per bushel of corn.
Labeled insecticides
Products and rates per acre include Ambush (6.4 to 12.8 ounces), Asana XL (5.8 to 9.6 ounces), Lorsban 4E (2 to 3 pints), Pounce 3.2EC (4 to 8 ounces), or Warrior T or 1E (2.56 to 3.84 ounces). These products, with the exception of Lorsban, are restricted use pesticides. Always read and follow label directions.

World renowned as the "King of Diggin'", Tokyo-bred producer/remixer DJ Muro is as versatile a grandmixer as they come - having mastered virtually every genre of funky groove-ology under the sun via his many acclaimed mixes. Of course, it was Muro's celebrated mid-'90s series of hip-hop sample-source-spotting mix-tapes (not coincidentally entitled, "King of Diggin'") that initially put his selector skills on the map. Thus, it was only a matter of time before we hit up this mos' regal of ETL contributors for a list of his own personal favorite sample flips. Bow down!
(Props to K-Prince for translating.)
Follow Muro on The Twitter ; "Like" Muro on Facebook .
1. Marley Marl ft. Masta Ace, Craig G, Kool G Rap & Big Daddy Kane - "The Symphony" (Cold Chillin', 1988)
PRODUCER: Marley Marl
SAMPLE SOURCE: Rory-O & Chuck Colbert - "Do It Your Way" (Summerfest, 1973)
DJ Muro: When Pete Rock first came to Japan in the mid-'90s, I played a gig with him in a city called Mito. We went digging together and that's when he put me up on this 45. When he told me that this 45 with this "FAT" drum break was never sold in stores and only given out at a music festival, I was like WTF!? Standing ovation to Marley Marl for digging up such an obscure record - especially so far back in the day - and cooking up a true hip-hop classic!
2. Mobb Deep - "Shook Ones Pt. II" (Loud, 1995)
PRODUCER: Havoc
SAMPLE SOURCE: Daly-Wilson Big Band ft. Kerrie Biddell - "Dirty Feet" (General Recording Corp., 1974)
DJ Muro: This is another one that I picked up in the mid-'90s at a record shop in Shibuya. I saw the words "Drum Break!" on the sleeve, so I dropped the needle and instantly realized it was the drums from "Shook Ones." And I remember very vividly trying to suppress my excitement and remain calm in the store with my headphones on.
3. Soho - "Hot Music" (United Sounds of America, 1990)
PRODUCER: Pal Joey
SAMPLE SOURCE: Wynton Marsalis - "Skain's Domain" (Columbia, 1986)
DJ Muro: When I first heard this OG sample, I couldn't believe that such a "pop" piano phrase was from a few seconds of a straight ahead jazz track from '86… I remember the NY DJs loving and playing this joint to death. And later groups like EPMD sampled it. Classic. I wanted to kneel down on the ground and bow to Pal Joey for coming up with this loop back in the days!
4. Brand Nubian - "All For One" (Elektra, 1991)
PRODUCER: Brand Nubian
SAMPLE SOURCE: James Brown - "Can Mind" (King, 1971)
DJ Muro: I'd always heard that this JB album was more on the rock tip, so I got my hands on it much later than his other albums. For that reason alone, when I heard that quick phrase that was flipped for "All For One," my jaw hit the floor...
5. Gang Starr - "Mass Appeal" (Chrysalis, 1994)
PRODUCER: DJ Premier
SAMPLE SOURCE: Vic Juris - "Horizon Drive" (Muse, 1980)
DJ Muro: Back when "Mass Appeal" came out, a friend mistakenly told me that the infectious loop was from a Groove Merchant recording, so I dug through my crates and listened back to all the GM joints that I had. No luck. A few years later, another friend from overseas put me up on the Vic Juris album. Preemo is a monster for taking just those few seconds and making it into such a classic hit.
6. Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth - "Lots of Lovin'" (Elektra, 1992)
PRODUCER: Pete Rock
SAMPLE SOURCE: Ohio Players - "What's Going On" (Westbound, 1974)
DJ Muro: I'd always thought that Pete took a piece of a nice obscure R&B tune for this, so when I found out that it was from that little part at the end of this Ohio Players song, it was a shock - like Robocop was to Chubb Rock. Pete's use of Tom Scott on "T.R.O.Y." and the P.E. "Shut 'Em Down" remix was crazy too, but this one completely caught me off guard.
7. Artifacts - "Whassup Now Muthafucka?" (Big Beat, 1994)
PRODUCER: T-Ray
SAMPLE SOURCE: Joe Farrell - "Upon This Rock" (CTI, 1974)
DJ Muro: "Upon This Rock" is amongst my personal Top 5 favorite drum breaks of all-time. But this album also showed me that CTI - despite being famous as a jazz label - had some real rock influenced albums too. I especially remember this one because around the same time the Artifacts came out with this track I was also looping up the same part and was like, damn.
8. Lord Finesse & DJ Mike Smooth - "Strictly For the Ladies" (Wild Pitch, 1990)
PRODUCER: DJ Premier
SAMPLE SOURCE: Lee Dorsey - "A Lover Was Born" (Amy, 1969)
DJ Muro: Finesse has taught me many things, and this particular song taught me that there are crazy beats out of New Orleans. I feel like Finesse's beats and lyrics have that similar funky, cheerful, lively vibe like the soul music of New Orleans. He is definitely one of my all-time favorites.
9. Eric B. & Rakim - "Paid In Full (Seven Minutes Of Madness - Coldcut Remix)" (4th & B'way, 1988)
PRODUCER: Coldcut
SAMPLE SOURCE: Rick Jones - "Bang On A Drum" (BBC, 1973)
DJ Muro: I loved the collage type production of Coldcut when they first came out. Like with [Double Dee and Steinski's] "Lesson" series, I used to go crazy looking for every sample used on their records. I found this particular album at Beat Bop Records in Shibuya in the '90s and was amazed with how Coldcut used that little piece of the break just for the fade out of the "Paid In Full" remix.
10. Davy DMX - "One For the Treble (Fresh)" (Tuff City, 1984)
PRODUCER: Davy D
SAMPLE SOURCE: The Gap Band - "Burn Rubber (Why You Wanna Hurt Me)" (Mercury, 1980)
DJ Muro: [Muro's mentor] DJ Krush [for whom I was security/MC/record carrier/driver] put me up on this record as a "scratch tool" in the late '80s. I remember scratching this record to death along with [Fab 5 Freddy's] "Change the Beat." Not only did this record have that car screeching "brake" sound, it had that chirping chicken sound as well. So it was a very useful record to DJ with.

ONE of the region's oldest scout groups, 3rd Altrincham Scout Group, is kicking off a year of celebrations to mark its centenary year and are looking for former members to join in.
The Hale based troop was formerly established in 1913 and moved into their scout hut a year later where meetings and events are still held to this day.
The group is hoping that former scouts, cubs or leaders will get in touch and come along to their birthday bashes on May 5 and 8 as well as share their memories of the group or lend them any memorabilia they may have.
Current scout leader, Dave Smith said, "Scouting has changed a lot in the last 100 years but the skills you learn, whether it's beavers, cubs, scouts or explorers, last you for life and the memories and friendships do too. We hope that we can get as many ex-members involved to share their experiences of the group, camps, gang shows, or simply being a scout."
If you or your relatives went to 3rd Altrincham Scouts or had any involvement with the group, have any memories to share, or want tickets for thecentenary celebrations, contact Dave by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Samsung's UND6300 Series is a mid-level series in the company's 2011 LED line. We have not performed a hands-on review of the UN46D6300, but here is an overview of its features. This 46-inch, 1080p TV lacks the 3D capability found in the higher-end LED lines (D6400-D8000), but it still offers a strong features package that includes the Smart Hub Web platform with a Web browser and Search All function, optional WiFi, and DLNA/AllShare media streaming. The Smart Hub service includes access to Netflix, VUDU, Blockbuster, Hulu Plus, YouTube, Pandora, Facebook, Twitter, and many more options offered through the Samsung Apps store. This TV lacks the integrated WiFi and Skype capability you'll get with step-up models.

• Explore soundbar options in our Soundbar Review section.
The UN46D6300 uses edge LED lighting; it does not add the Micro Dimming technology that allows the LED zones to adjust themselves independently to improve black-level and screen uniformity. Clear Motion Rate 240 technology is onboard to reduce motion blur and film judder. The connection panel includes four HDMI inputs (all side-facing), one component video input (a single mini-jack with a supplied adapter cable), one PC input, and one RF input to access the internal ATSC and Clear-QAM tuners (limited PIP is available). Three USB ports are included for media playback, as well as the addition of the optional LinkStick WiFi adapter ($79.99). An Ethernet port is available for a wired network connection. The UN46D6300 lacks an RS-232 or IR port for integration into an advanced control system. This TV has an attractive design, with a graphite finish and a depth of just 1.2 inches.
The setup menu offers a thorough assortment of video adjustments, including: an adjustable backlight; shadow detail; gamma; flesh tone; edge enhancement; digital and MPEG noise reduction; four color-temperature presets, plus RGB offset/gain and 10p white balance controls to precisely adjust color temperature; and three color-space options, including a custom mode in which you can individually adjust red, green, and blue. The Expert Pattern and RGB Only modes are designed to assist with the video-setup process. Clear Motion Rate 240 includes settings for off, clear, standard, and smooth, plus a custom mode in which you can separately adjust the blur and judder functions. There's also an LED Motion Plus control that reduces motion blur by flashing the LED lighting system. The UN46D6300 has eight aspect ratios, including a Screen Fit mode that displays images with no overscan.
On the audio side, the TV's setup menu includes five preset sound modes, a five-band equalizer for use with the Standard sound mode, SRS TruSurround HD, SRS TruDialog to improve vocal clarity, and an Auto Volume function that reduces level variations between TV shows and commercials.
The UN46D6300's Eco menu includes an Energy Saving mode (with five options) to lower the backlight level, as well as an Eco Sensor that automatically adjusts the picture to suit the room's ambient lighting. You can set up the TV to turn itself off when it has received no signal or no activity for a designated time.
The UN46D6300 has an MSRP of $1,499.99 and a street price around $1,1000.

Women of faith
By Sundra Hominik, Special to the Citizen 03/19/12
The world marked International Woman's Day on March 8 by celebrating the economic, political and social accomplishments of women. The special day falls during the month that's also set aside to honor women in history.
Women continue to make history today often by accepting new challenges and taking on important leadership positions.
Anjum Ali and Jessica Stewart of central Virginia are two minority women who have taken on unique roles in their communities. Both said their faith is what motivates them to work to try to make a difference.
Anjum Ali – Born in the U.S., she has lived and studied in Saudi Arabia and Canada. She earned a bachelor's degree in international relations and French culture and a master's in Islamic studies. She moved to Richmond 12 years ago. She is Pakistani-American.
A connection may start as two people in a grocery store's produce section talk about selecting the best peaches for a cobbler. Or a connection may start when one woman compliments another woman on the scarf she's wearing.
Anjum Ali, a Muslim, has been part of such conversations that started as polite exchanges and led to a better understanding between two people.
Ali is a board member of Initiatives of Change, which operates Hope in the Cities. That group started in 1990 in response to the need for racial healing in Richmond.
She also founded SpeakingUnites, which provides training and workshops about Muslims and Islam.
Henrico County organizations including a mental health agency and a domestic violence alliance have called on her to help with training or to lead conversations about diversity and inclusion.
Her passion is building understanding and trust across cultures, classes, races and especially religions.
"I just feel that maybe I've had a little bit of a talent to be able to convey to others what Islam is really about," she said. "Sometimes I like to say, 'I would be proud to show the true face of Islam.' "
Ali, who spent several years in New England, said she is sometimes surprised and appreciative of how polite people are in Virginia. Polite conversations can be excellent starting points for changing hearts and minds.
"I like to be treated with courtesy and politeness. And isn't that what we should all be trained to do anyway because there is something that ... on that initial meeting that can open the doors towards people reconciling their differences," she said.
Ali is part of a growing immigrant and native-born Muslim population in central Virginia and the country.
Pew Research Center demographers estimate there were 2.75 million Muslims living in the U.S. in 2011. The Center estimates that less than .5 percent of people in Virginia are Muslims. Ali estimates about 20,000 Muslims live in the Richmond region.
As the Muslim population grows, people's curiosity increases. Many wonder what it means to be Muslim. That interest feeds popular culture such as the controversial TLC television show, "All-American Muslim."
When asked about the TV program and how it relates to her life in the Richmond area, Ali laughed, then she gave the region a good rating as a place to live and practice her faith.
"I have had a relatively positive experience here," she said."I have had maybe only two or three, at the most, incidences where I felt that people were acting a little bit hateful or hurtful because of my faith or my identity as a Muslim. But overall I think central Virginia is a very interesting place to live."
She added that life here is not perfect. "There are doors that are definitely closed to you … but at the same time there's a lot to be said for the fact that people are trying more and more to slowly move their way into being more open-minded."
Jessica Stewart – Born in Charles City County. She earned her bachelor's degree from Virginia Commonwealth University in English and women's studies. She will earn her master's in elementary education from William & Mary in May. She is a Chickahominy Indian.
Charles City County, Henrico County's closest neighbor to the east, was a secure and comfortable place for Jessica Stewart to grow up. She was surrounded by extended family and many other Chickahominy Indians.
She grew up wanting to become a teacher like her two great aunts. Now, Stewart is a student teacher in New Kent County as she finishes her graduate work in elementary education.
Stewart also grew up wanting to be the first female chief of the Chickahominy tribe.
"I've always wanted to be on the [Tribal] Council, always wanted a leadership role," she said. "I want to be the chief. I want to be the first female chief of our tribe and it's something that I'm definitely going to work towards because I don't want the fire to be put out. I want to keep it going."
At 26 years old, Stewart is laying the foundation to reach her second dream.
She is the youngest member of the Chickahominy Tribal Council. She traveled to England as part of a delegation commemorating the 400th anniversary of the settling of Jamestown. Stewart spends much of her time building awareness of Virginia Indian culture. At a recent multicultural event at the Science Museum of Virginia, Stewart, assistant chief Wayne Adkins and others shared Chickahominy's history and traditional dances.
Dancing at Pow Wows and other events is one way to teach others about her tribe, but Stewart said dancing also is a way to demonstrate her deep Christian faith.
"It's connected to my faith. When I dance, it's a prayer for me. It's praise for the Creator and very, very spiritual when you enter the dance circle," she said.
Virginia's Indian population is 0.4 percent, according to the U.S. Census. In Charles City, which is the Chickahominy's home county, the population is 0.3 percent. It's the same in Henrico County.
With such a small Indian population, making sure their history is remembered and honored is a challenge Stewart and the Tribal Council must face.
"Virginia has such a rich history … I just don't want that to be forgotten … that we were very instrumental in the formation of this nation, this great nation, and we did work together to build this. And I don't want that to be lost in the shuffle of things," Stewart said.

Gloucester v Bath
HENRY PAUL, on his first start for Gloucester in a month, finds himself up against a Bath backline without five internationals, Iain Balshaw (ankle) and Mike Tindall (knee) having joined long-term casualties Mike Catt, Kevin Maggs and Matt Perry. Paul is named at full-back in a team showing five changes from the starting line-up last week against Sale. Besides Paul, wing Diego Albanese, prop Patrice Collazo, lock Rob Fidler and flanker Jake Boer are recalled to help stem a worrying statistic for Gloucester of conceding 16 tries in three games.
The latest injuries contribute to the gloom at Bath after one win in six Premiership games. Sam Cox is the likely deputy for Tindall, while Olly Barkley is expected to revert to outside-half for Balshaw. Lock Danny Grewcock, who damaged his hand in the defeat at Newcastle last week, should start along with Mark Gabey, who has already signed up for Worcester next season.
Wasps v Northampton
LAWRENCE DALLAGLIO, whose return has brought three successive wins, is expected to lead Wasps despite a thumb injury that might require an operation. A re-jigged backline sees Josh Lewsey alongside Mark Denney at centre and Paul Sampson at full-back. Lewsey, Sampson, Joe Worsley and Shane Roiser have signed new two-year contracts, dismissing thoughts of other departures besides lock Ian Jones, to join former director of rugby Nigel Melville at Gloucester.
Northampton give starts to Matt Dawson and Steve Thompson, the England internationals having been dropped last week to the bench following the Powergen Cup final defeat by London Irish. Shoulder injuries rule out two leading forwards in lock Johan Ackermann and flanker Andrew Blowers, while Matt Stewart and Chris Budgen are on duty in the Army-Navy match.
Bristol v Leicester
CHAMPIONS Leicester travel warily to the Memorial Ground, having lost three Premiership games on Sunday away trips this season. Manager Dean Richards is expected to name a much-changed team to the one who beat Llanelli in the Heineken Cup semi-final. Among those likely to be rested are Martin Johnson, Neil Back, Austin Healey and Tim Stimpson. Up front, Josh Kronfeld and Will Johnson, who both missed last Sunday, are expected to appear after knee problems.
Bristol need victory to keep alive faint hopes of European qualification. Captain Jason Little, having missed the defeat by Gloucester, should start at centre in a backline that is without outside-half Shane Drahm because of a knee injury. Another knee victim is Paul Johnstone. Like Drahm, the prop is out for the season.
London Irish v Sale
The European Shield defeat by Pontypridd has made London Irish stop and think. "We're not as good as we think we are," Conor O'Shea, the director of rugby, warned. Both these sides need to finish in the top three to be certain of a Heineken Cup place, though Sale would qualify if they win the Shield. Irish name Jeff Fahrensohn at lock for Steve Williams (finger) and recall the cup-tied Paul Gustard.
Sale's handling game failed to work when the sides drew 19-19 in December. "We only scored one try and that was when Brendan Venter had gone off," coach Jim Mallinder said. Hooker Andy Titterrell is available after missing the shield semi-final win over Gloucester. Lock Scott Lines is again on the sidelines, awaiting the visit of Leeds on Wednesday for his return after a hamstring problem.
Newcastle v Saracens
SARACENS promise a bit more of Thomas Castaignede after the Frenchman made his long-awaited comeback last week in the final 20 minutes at Northampton. Castaignede is likely to play most of the second half for a side still not clear of relegation thoughts. Kyran Bracken is fit after a three-week break because of concussion and joins a squad including Richard Hill and Scott Murray. Both forwards missed the defeat at Northampton.
For Newcastle, this home game and the visit of Irish on Wednesday are must wins to keep European hopes alive. The absence of Epi Taione, who broke a bone in a hand against Bath, robs Newcastle of their most consistent gain-line breaker. Pat Lam starts instead of the Tongan and full-back David Walder could be among the substitutes after prolonged hamstring trouble.

Enter the Snow Extrication Kit. Most people who live where there is winter tend to carry a shovel, probably a bag of kitty litter, and ideally a flashlight and a blanket, just in case. This puts several things together in one neat package that doesn't take up a lot of room, but could actually save your life someday. It comes with not only a metal-edged shovel for digging your way out, but an industrial ice scraper and swiveling snow brush for making sure your windows are clear when you do get to go somewhere. The piece de resistance, however, is the grip track, which you can place under your tires when they're just spinning uselessly in place to get yourself moving again. It weighs a lot less than a bag of kitty litter, and is also more effective. The grip track measures almost three feet long, and is constructed of stainless steel cables with independent rubber treads.
The best part about this is it doesn't take up much room in your trunk, and also weighs almost nothing (all of 11 pounds). The shovel handle triples its usefulness by being able to be used with the ice scraper and snow brush. Everything fits in a neat little briefcase-type bag with a convenient carrying handle. What I find neat is the grip track can be used in all seasons, in case you get stuck in sand at the beach or something.
If you want one of these kits to ease your winter concerns, you can pick one up for about $70.00 US.

2. Assignment: United States-Centric Views Comparison
• Resource: Appendix D
• Due Date: Day 7 [Individual] forum
• Give a copy of Appendix D to a friend or family member and ask that person to complete the table contained therein. In doing so, your chosen participant will consider what he or she thinks are the common United States-centric viewpoints on Muslim and Arab American and Christian American groups. Ask your participant to return their completed appendix at least one day before this assignment is due.
• Complete a duplicate copy of Appendix D yourself, following the same directions as your participant.
• Compare and contrast your participant's answers with your own, and write a 350- to 500-word summary that answers all of the following questions:
o How are your table answers similar? How are they different?
o Do either tables list descriptors in the Both Groups category? Describe.
o From either or both tables, name one or two descriptor(s) that you think represent true facts about each group and one or two descriptor(s) that you think are false.
o How do you think an average American's perceptions of each group are created?
Please read through previous responses to this very assignment. You should get lots of help in these posts:
You would think so, but is not the case.
If you cannot find assistance from among those previous posts, then you need to re-read your assignment.
1. YOU must give a copy of Appendix D to a friend or family member (and you MUST have a copy of it in the assignment packet, right?). No one here can help you with that.
2. YOU must ask this person to complete it with their own thoughts and beliefs and return it to YOU before the due date.
3. YOU must respond to the questions in Appendix D yourself -- YOUR beliefs and thoughts on the topic.
4. YOU must compare the two sets of responses.
Etc. Follow the directions. They are very clear.

Lacrosse news straight to your inbox.
Monday July 23rd, 2012 4:21pm
Inside Lacrosse contributor Kristen Bulkley was on-hand for the Class S, M and L State Championships for Connecticut at Brian McMahon High School in Norwalk, CT. Here are her reports from the trio of championships.
The Darien Blue Wave (18-3) enter today's game seeking their sixth-straight Connecticut Class M state championship against New Fairfield Rebels (19-2) in the final title game today at Brien McMahon high school in Norwalk, CT.
Darien wins the intial faceoff but New Fairfield's defense immediately steps up and plays Darien's potent offense aggressively, resulting in a fast break the other way and a New Fairfield goal by #24 John Pendergast with 11:32 in the first quarter. But Darien's Henry West answers almost a minute later off an assist from sophomore Case Matheis, his first of eleven points on the day, making it 1-1. Minutes later, Graham Maybell drives on his man, rifling in a hard shot at 8:04 to make it 2-1 Darien. Clearly, Darien was beginning to warm up as their offense maintained long and patient possessions, and thirty seconds later senior Brian Gleason feeds Case Matheis across the crease, and it's 3-1 Darien. New Fairfield managed to get a handful of shots off, but found scoring to be difficult against Darien's senior goalie, Cornell-bound Andrew West, arguably one of the best high school goalies in the country. With 1:21 left in the first, Baylis Treen sets up Matheis for a beautiful behind-the-back goal, Darien 4-1; a play that was amazingly "unflashy" yet an example of Darien making the most of every opportunity and situation.
But New Fairfield was not giving up just yet, and a goal off transition by Andy Scalesi is a temporary stop to Darien's offensive firestorm, making it 4-2 with 1:14 left in the first. But Darien's Matheis begins putting on a clinic, as he takes advantage of the room and opportunities New Fairfield's defense is giving him, and he scores two more goals (his third and fourth of the game) in quick succession, at :48 and :33 respectively, pushing Darien's lead to 6-2 at the end of the first quarter.
On the other end of the field, Darien's defense is just stifling what little offense New Fairfield tried to generate, as the trio of Eric Parnon, George Benitez and Christian Kolderup make few mistakes and tenacious defense both on and off the ball. Darien's next possesion sees them patiently working the ball on settled attack, resulting in Matheis' fifth goal assisted by Maybell, with 6:28 left in the first half. New Fairfield finally ends a scoring drought when Ryan Mallon shoots a hard weak-side bounce shot past West with 3:50 in second quarter. But despite an attempt by the Rebels to shut him down, Matheis becomes even more of a problem for New Fairfield when he scores his sixth goal with 2:16 left and then intercepts the ball while riding and buries his seventh-straight goal, one on one, with 1:30 left in the half, in what has become the "Case Matheis Show," making it 9-3 Darien at the half.
In the second half, New Fairfield was trying to get something started, and even had a two-man advantage off of simultaneous Darien fouls at one point, yet failed to convert on their opportunities. Darien's defense was playing very tough on-ball, and they weren't getting beat or giving up position. And in the rare occasion of a New Fairfield shot, the ball still had to penetrate past West, who was making big saves whenever necessary. New Fairfield's defensive zone was not pressuring behind, which allowed Darien's feeder, Matheis, plenty of time and space to set things up, eventually resulting in Matheis' eighth goal at 6:03 in the third, making it 10-3 Darien. New Fairfield was held scoreless in the third.
But as the final quarter began, New Fairfield couldn't stop the Darien offensive onslaught as Henry West found Brian Gleason on a fast break, clearly a strength in Darien's style of play. New Fairfield answered seconds later as Andy Scalesi won the next faceoff and ran hard to goal scoring with 10:46 in the fourth, cutting Darien's lead to 11-4. But Baylis Treen, one of Darien's off-ball playmakers, anticipates ball movement, gains possession and ignites another fast break to Matheis who feeds Gleason on the crease with 8:06 to play in the game. Darien's defense begins to clamp down even more, and New Fairfield takes a shot from far outside, which West easily saves and immediately clears which is often the catalyst for many of Darien's textbook fast breaks. Matheis finds the ball in his stick again, and adds another goal to his growing arsenal, beating his man from behind and notching his ninth goal of the game, just an astonishing feat especially for a sophomore in a title game. Seconds later, Darien's poles hustling all over the field generates another fast break and another goal by Darien's big finisher Brian Gleason, making it 14-4 Darien with 6:01 left to play. Late fourth-quarter Darien goals by Robbie Winter, Alex Brown and Richard Gregory not only seals the deal, but exemplifies Darien's depth of talent, and the Blue Wave cruise to victory and continue their Connecticut Class M dominance, winning convincingly 17-5.
Sophomore Case Matheis, who had 9g,2a on the day downplayed his outstanding game by contributing it to "being in the right place at the right time, and having great teammates who feed me the ball perfectly. We were motivated by this new challenge, not having faced New Fairfield yet this season, and after beating New Canaan in the semifinal game, we knew we couldn't let up."
And senior goalie Andrew West said "I was nervous going in, we watched a lot of tape and didn't think there were too many chinks in New Fairfield's armour, but we got out here and the offense set the tone quickly, and then we just played our game. This is an unbelievable group of guys, this is definitely more special this year as a senior, in past (state title wins) I didn't feel I played my best game, but today I felt pretty good and it is awesome."
Connecticut's lacrosse state championships kicked off with the first game between Weston and St.Joseph's, at McMahon High School in Norwalk, CT.
Dominating on face off possession, St.Joe's jumped to an early lead in the first quarter behind three goals from underclassmen, specifically a goal by #12 Bob Ciotti put them ahead 3-2 at the end of the first. But the second quarter would be all Weston, and several longer possessions resulted in four unanswered goals for Weston, as they found success attacking short sticks from behind, with Tucker Drimal finding the net early in the second quarter, followed by a diving goal by Morgan Faller which is called back due to a crease violation, only to have him answer again a minute later, making it 4-3 and Weston permanently takes the lead.
St.Joe's began to struggle offensively, as Weston's' defensive zone began to stifle the up-tempo, explosive attack that characterizes St.Joe's offensive play. Two more Weston goals by Charles Smith with 7:36 to play and another by Lyle Mitchell with only :09 seconds remaining in the first half pushed Weston's lead to 6-3.
The third quarter would be a low-scoring, midfield battle with multiple turnovers and changes of possesion by both teams. St.Joseph's Cadets would be the only team to score in the third quarter, with a goal from Mike Marini at 7:48, making it 6-4 Weston. Weston expired a St.Joe's EMO, but unforced turnovers were starting to define the back and forth transition in this title game.
In the fourth quarter, St.Joe's continued to dominate face-offs, but Weston would retain possession off St.Joe's turnovers. At 8:54, Weston pushes their lead to 7-4 as Morgan Faller cuts hard and finds the net off a beautiful feed from Lyle Mitchell. Despite Weston winning the next face-off, St.Joe's continued to fight back, as they answered with a goal from Mike Marini at 8:13.
Weston began to slow down the pace on offense, and a change of possession was called after they stepped out of the box when given a stall warning, as unforced turnovers and frequent changes of possession again defined the last quarter of play. St.Joe's would answer one more time with a goal from Pat Corcoran at 5:16, but Weston would hold on for the win, 7-6, to claim the Connecticut Class S State Championship under first-year coachg John Mathews.
Mathews summed up this accomplishment as "just a great thing for the senior class, I am so happy for them. Few teams get a shot at redemption (after losing in states last year), but this is a great team with nine seniors and I am just thrilled for them."
Connecticut's Class L State Championship was gearing up to be a premiere battle between perennial powerhouse and defending state champ Fairfield Prep and Cheshire. Both teams are big, athletic and physical, and well-coached.
In the first quarter, Fairfield Prep wins the face off and scores quickly, but the goal is waived off due to offsides. Cheshire is the first to score off an unassisted goal by senior Nicholas Carisio. Prep then wins the next face-off again, as Darric White, a defender, uses a short stick to win it. Prep then maintained control of several long possessions, though multiple shots on goal go wide. A hard bounce shot by Tyler Cox ties the game for Prep at 1-1, with 5:38 remaining.
Cheshire answers two minutes later as they take advantage of an unsettled situation with great ball movement, resulting in a goal by Michael Jordan. However, several spectacular saves by goalies for both teams keeps the scoring low for two teams with offensive firepower. A failed clear attempt leads to another unassisted Chesire goal by Michael Devine with 1:08 left, to put Chesire ahead 3-1. But Prep answers almost immediately, with a hard bounce shot by John McGoldrick at :33 in first.
The second quarter saw both defensive units stepping up, pressing out on shooters and smothering inside looks. Prep gets another boost from McGoldrick at 11:03 tying the game at 3-3, but despite maintaining a majority of the possesion, Prep misses multiple opportunities with a barrage of shots going wide. Little bit of a scoring drought for both teams in the second quarter ends when Chesire's Michael Jordan scores off a beautiful feed from Nicholas Guarino, making it 4-3 Cheshire. To end the first half, Cheshire puts another goal in off a diving bounce shot from Nicholas Carisio, pushing Cheshire's lead to 5-3.
At the start of the 3rd quarter, Prep again wins the faceoff and a defensive battle ensues. Both teams are having to be very methodical on offense, looking for the right matchups or to capitalize off loose ball play; both defenses not allowing too many easy opportunities anchored by strong goalies.
It is an evenly-matched, up and down fast-paced game. Prep's Kevin Brown is assisted by Mike Carey at 5:23 to cut Cheshire's lead to one, but Cheshire would score the next four goals within a three minute period, with hat trick goals from Nicholas Carisio and Michael Jordan, a rebound flicked in by Kevin Adams, and a 60 yard assist to Todd Heritage from goalie Nathan Gaudio with 2:50 left; Cheshire up 9-4. Prep finally answers on a Brendan Rotanz goal, as he rips one top-shelf with 1:42 left in third.
In the fourth quarter, Prep opens up first again on another unassisted goal by Rotanz, even while the Cheshire goalie Gaudio again makes some huge stops. Cheshire begins to turn the ball over numerous times, and Prep capitalizes, scoring three goals, another by Rotanz, his third of the game with 9:12 left.
The game comes down to the wire, as Prep scores two quick goals with seconds left, but Cheshire's defense clamps down and helps them hold on to the lead, Cheshire beating Prep 9-8 for the Connecticut Class L state championship.
Cheshire head coach Rich Pulisciano gave credit to a tough Fairfield Prep team saying "The are very strong in transition, they have excellent shooters, and we didn't need to try to shoot (and turn the ball over) at the end, but I am so happy for our guys, we have 22 seniors, several have been with me since they were freshmen, and I'm so happy for them."
