(I) Good afternoon Dr. Carpenter. You will be narrating and giving us facts about Teaneck from 1965 to the present date.
(N) Good afternoon. My family and I moved to Teaneck in 1965, the fall, and of course we came because of the publicity of its excellent schools, its very serious attempt at integrating the community and making is holistic and because, frankly, we had friends here who were very happy. When we came to Teaneck, we also wanted to have an opportunity for our daughter, Karen, to attend what was then known as some of the best schools in what we call northeastern United States.
We came here and immediately became involved in organizational and community work. For example, there was a group formed that was called the North East Community Organization (NECO) and the purpose of this organization was for a group of residents who were part of the four quadrants that Teaneck was divided into, north, south, east and west, the north-east part to get together for the purpose of keeping the community viable, knowing the people in the community, articulating with our city fathers, seeing that our children knew each other and got along well and I guess keep that rosiness of an integrated community that we wanted at the time. So it was a mixture of black and white citizens of Teaneck, New Jersey.
We did several things, for example, we were able to always avert that vicious tactic which is called blockbusting or the illegal steering away of one person to a community by an unscrupulous realtor or the I would say libelous statement that it was all going to be all black, all white, all Chinese, etc. Because of our active efforts, we were able to avoid that type of stampede. And some of our more famous citizens today were a part of that community. Mrs. Ann Mesereau of our school board, our mayor Mr. Bernard Brooks, the late Dr. Cope, Archie Lacey and Thomas Boyd and people of that type were involved with it along with, believe it or not, such people as the wife of the deputy mayor and also Miss Rita Hall was very active with the Urban League to name a few.
I became particularly interested in the youth in the area and along with several other people, we devised a scholarship informational board which was obtained through the efforts of everybody in the Northeast Community Organization (NECO) as well as our friends who didn't live in the area by giving us the names of unknown scholarship sources, this book became a thesaurus for young people who wanted to get scholarship help because as you know, when you move into a "middle class" or "upper middle class" mobile community, it is more difficult for people to get scholarships although I would consider them to be mortgaged poor along with myself.
It wasn't long after we had moved into Teaneck that I was put on other committees such as the Health Committee with (unclear) Wilkus who was director, through Dr. Somotus and its purpose of course was to act as advisory to the Health Department interns of those programs which would affect others, affect senior citizens, etc.
In 1966, we discovered that you had a wonderful BAHI community here which was located on Alicia Avenues and Forest Avenues in Teaneck and not being particularly affiliated with any orthodox religion, we explored this possibility and after attending several of the meetings, we became BAHIS. We are still today. My family. And I think the reason that we embraced this particular religion was because they openly put in their literature and the public view, their principles and one of the principles that was important to me was that as stated, "there will be no differences between races". That impressed me very greatly because although I'd seen a great deal and heard a great deal in terms of lip service from other sources, I'd never seen it in writing as a part of a religious movement. And this was not just started now. This was started in 1844 in a place called Persia which we know now as Iran having all of that trouble with the Homani. My wife was impressed with the principle of there will be equality among the sexes. Being a feminist at the time, I suppose this impressed her and for my daughter, we were concerned with this part, that the earth would be one country and all men its citizens and we wanted her to live in a universal world. And we thought that was a very important movement within the township and shall we say the nation and we became involved with that.
Later, I became very much interested in a volunteer paper which was called THE TORCHBEARER under the leadership or aegis of the late Dr. Walter Taylor. THE TORCHBEARER was a rather, I'd say, significant name and it was developed in order to bring information and thereby light to the eyes of Bergen County concerning incidents which affected minority citizens, the poorer elements of Bergen County who were not making large salaries, the aged which is growing in number and to focus on that type of information which would inspire the citizenry to become aware, become involved in problems that would affect us for one. We noticed that in Bergen County, people over 55 are leaving more than people under 55. And the reason is obvious. Their children are grown, the expensive taxation is typical and perhaps they want to move to a warmer clime, perhaps. Yet on the other hand, we are getting in younger people with children and they don't give us leadership roots that we need right away and we seem to be getting more of a younger population and I have no cry against young people but I think in order for a community or society to be viable, it has to have a representative from all age levels and I also feel that they should have the aged, I believe in veneration of the aged because they have so much to give to us.
The newspaper had all volunteers. There was not one paid or salaried person. We were housed in Englewood. We developed a rather large subscription I'd say, over 2,000 and we were published every week and we attracted the attention of more stable newspapers who in turn began to give us a certain amount of technical assistance such as THE RECORD and THE SUBURBANITE, etc. This was another venture where you had people of Englewood, Teaneck coming together for what purpose? To do something that would produce a paper that would not be involved with yellow journalism so to speak, that would try to be honest, that would try to be direct and because of the fact that we were not, I would say, connected directly to any particular money source, we were independent. That was exciting.
(I) Excuse me a moment. Here we'd like to establish the year that the paper came into existence.
(N) THE TORCHBEARER was created I would say in the basement of Galilee Church in Englewood in the fall of 1979 and it kept :its doors alive until the fall of 1983 you would say when many of us were no longer with them but the paper was still running. It was later then taken over by some private people and with the death of the first founder and editor, Dr. Walter Taylor, many of us who were still on the board of trustees saw that the paper could use a different name and they no longer use the name of THE TORCHBEARER.
As you recall in the 60s, it was turbulent, it was exciting, it was the era of the so called civil rights movement with Dr. King (inaudible) passive resistance. It also came to Teaneck. It had an interesting effect upon the black youth of Teaneck particularly in the northeast community. Not all of them became involved structurally or formally with the movement but they certainly became, I would say, affected and enamored with the utterances of a Stokley Carmichael then, a minister Malcolm X and the more you would say aggressive leadership than those of the Roy Wilkens and the Eugene Calendars, etc. that we ordinarily would look at The NAACP and the Urban League.
However, there was not the problem of serious dope addiction that we have today in the 80s but there was a very serious problem with students who were very bright leaving school before they should - the dropout problem. within the Teaneck community, now I believe he is a Lieut. Green but at that time he was a Sergeant Green with the Police Department working with the Youth Department. He got a storefront on Teaneck Road and West Forest Avenue and I don't really know how he did it because he didn't have that much money and the town didn't fund him that much but soon you saw a number of young black people going there, working on this shop and many of us wondered what they were doing. If you were to go into this store, you soon discovered that they had put in a central recycling fountain, all sorts of objects that many of them somehow or another had gotten from homes or families, etc., legally which were African artifacts, etc. and they had a beautiful sign up there and they called it PIECES OF EIGHT. I never knew the symbolic significance of the Pieces of Eight. I don't know whether it was related to the pirates or whatnot, etc. but it seemed to have some sort of spiritual significance with these young people and they would gather and after Sgt. Green at the time would speak with them about social behavior, positive behavior, remaining in school, etc. They would have outside speakers come in, outside artists who would teach them the African movement in dance, Swahili, this I think is very interesting because these were the children of parents who had in a sense come from the city and who were upward mobile professional people and who live in split levels and had high and many degrees, artists, etc. and their children was going in a different social direction but thanks to Sgt. Green, as far as Teaneck was concerned, he was able to save a great deal and push them in a more positive direction.
I came into play then because at that time, 1967, I was made the headmaster of an experimental school or alternative school called HARLEM PREP. It was the first of its kind and unlike the Freedom School in the south or the Freedom School which was developed by Jonathan Colzer in Roxbury, Massachusetts, this was a school whose sole purpose was to place students who had dropped out of high school into colleges and universities throughout the United States and the world.
The reason I mention it in the context of Teaneck is that many of the young people who felt that they were not doing well in the Teaneck High School system for whatever reason came to HARLEM PREP and I don't want to call them by names because perhaps they might find it embarrassing but it is interesting to say that several of them have moved back now to Teaneck, some with their parents, some are married, we have one young man who was with the United Appeals; we have another man whose a famous jazz musician and playing with one of our top bands in the nation. You have another one who is a lawyer and practicing in Hackensack although he lives in Teaneck. One might say why would they go across the river to New York City to Harlem, per se, to go to a school like HARLEM PREP when they live in Teaneck. I think it was because of the similar spirit that they saw expressed in this little group called the PIECES OF EIGHT. At a HARLEM PREP, the logo was, "UMOJO UNDUGO" which I learned later because I certainly do not speak Swahili, meant UNITY AND BROTHERHOOD and I developed the school where there was a great deal of input from faculty, from students, from parents, from community because that was the time in the 60s when people were feeling, were asking and demanding to be involved in decision making. I found that very easy to do and the school in terms of the structural or educational model followed that principle and that's why the youngsters from Teaneck came and fared well I would say. And that was part of the excitement of the connectiveness I would say of Teaneck with other parts of the northeast and making it once again a viable base of operation.
(I) Thank you Dr. Carpenter.
(N) There is one incident that still effects America I believe and it effects all of us, white and black, and that was a (inaudible) of the late Dr. Luther King, Jr. in the late and turbulent 60s.
The reason I mentioned it is because specific things happened in Teaneck at that time and during the following night after the bullets were fired into him. For example, the township fathers immediately rallied together and stated and made public that there would be a memorial service held at the Teaneck High School and that we would come there to more or less hold each other's hand and say, take my coward's hand and let's try to go on together. In New York City, it had a profound effect because my school, HARLEM PREP, was also involved and they were right in the center where rioting had taken place in Harlem when the news blasted forth from the microphones and the public address systems that Dr. King had been assassinated in Tennessee.
As I said before in this tape, we had many students from Teaneck attending HARLEM PREP but what we did was this - we came back to Teaneck, many of them went over to PIECES OF EIGHT, they were cheerful, they were emotional, they were bitter, they were quiet, they ran in teams of I would say depression but all of them, to a young man and to a young lady, came to Teaneck High school that night in order to give a more formal and public, you might say, expression of this deep hurt that they felt for Dr. King and this feeling of where were we going and what's going to happen if that could happen to him.
As a BAHI, I said, things seem to tie in so very neatly. Robert Hayden, who was then poet laureate and was at that time a consultant for the Library of Congress in Washington, DC and the professor at the University of Michigan was visiting Teaneck to speak to the BAHIs and we were going to have a meeting that night but we certainly couldn't have a meeting that night with the affair going on at Teaneck High School in the late 60s, spring of the late 60s. We called the program people at Teaneck High School to inform them that Robert Hayden, poet laureate, was a personal friend of Dr. King and he had written a poem for him and would they want him to appear on the program. They said not only would he appear on the program, he was the program. So amidst all of the pain, here was a man who came, like Dr. King, full with love and read his beautiful poem, BROTHER KING. Not only did he bring tears to the eyes of the audience but I think he dissolved the anger and the hostility of so many of us who were sitting in that audience because we were enraged and incensed. Those young people that I spoke of that lived in Teaneck who were part of Sgt. Green's group of people, that were members of the HARLEM PREP student body were there, acting as unofficial ushers, seating people, working peaceably. I think that is important.

The former Hootie and The Blowfish frontman will debut 'Music From the Heart', a song written by numerous young adults with development disabilities, on Sunday, April 3.
Former Hootie & The Blowfish frontman Darius Rucker is set to hit the stage at the Academy of Country Music (ACM) Awards on Sunday, April 3 with 25 disabled youngsters who helped write his new track.
The star's latest song, "Music From the Heart", was penned by professional singer-songwriters Chris Young and Brett James, who teamed up with 25 teens from the ACM Lifting Lives music camp last summer in Nashville to help come up with ideas for the single.
The campers, who all suffer with developmental disabilities, will take to the stage at the event to help Rucker perform the song for the star-studded crowd. The special performance is in support of the Vanderbilt Kennedy Center, which helps disabled young adults lead a full life.
Of his involvement, Darius said, "People with disabilities often have rare abilities, and in some cases those abilities involve a special talent or affinity for music. I am honored to join ACM Lifting Lives and the Vanderbilt Kennedy Center to highlight how music can better the lives of young people with developmental disabilities on country music's biggest night."
The 46th Annual ACM Awards will air live from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas starting at 8:00 P.M. ET/delayed PT on CBS. Other previously-announced performers include Sara Evans, Martina McBride, Carrie Underwood, Sugarland's Jennifer Nettles with Rihanna and Zac Brown Band with James Taylor.

Piedmont lies in north west Italy, bordering France to the west and Switzerland to the north. Perfect if you're in France or Switzerland and want a taste of Italy!
In the wine country south of its capital, Turin, the panoramas awe you–magnificent hills falling at all angles, blanketed in vineyards and crowned with quaint little towns and imposing medieval castles. As you walk beautiful pathways in the hills, tranquility seeps into your soul.
Wine and food lovers flock to this countryside, famous for some of Italy's top red wines like robust Barolo and elegant Barbaresco, aromatic white truffles, hazelnuts, mushrooms, peaches, sweet peppers and chocolate.
Barolo ranks with Tuscany's Brunello. You'll discover a wonderful hierarchy of great reds from Barolo and Barbaresco to mid range, full bodied Barbera and Nebbiolo to fruity Dolcetto. Hospitable winery owners love telling you about their wines and lives, as you drink together so you feel like friends when you leave.
Piedmont offers an incredible array of appetizers like roasted peppers with tuna stuffing and parsley sauce. Other divine dishes: Castelmagno cheese risotto, Brasato al Barolo — a veal roll simmered in vegetables, herbs and Barolo, hazelnut chocolate cake with Moscato zabaglione. Typical dishes in local Italian cooking school tours.
Stroll in the wine country hub, Alba, past medieval towers in its historic centre, high quality clothing shops, gastronomy shops like "Sins of the Throat" and outdoor markets.
Special Events
September sees wine festivals on weekends in many smaller towns throughout Piedmont's wine country.
Alba's white truffle fair happens every weekend in October. The first weekend features a colourful medieval parade of performers in costume and a hilarious donkey race. The truffle fair, where you can buy white truffles and food products, is in a big tent in Alba's centre. Truffle season continues to November.
Weather in Turin Area, When To Go, What To Wear
Winter 6 to -3 C (43 F – 27 F). Too cold.
Spring March, April: 16 C – 6 C (61-43 F). Wear light coats and sweaters. Good for winery visits, staff has more time for you.
Early Summer Starts about late May, 21 – 9 C (70 – 48 F). June: 24-13 C (75 – 55 F). Wear long shorts or casual summer slacks in the day, light sweaters or jackets later. Also good for winery visits.
Late Summer July & August: 27- 16 C (81 – 61 F). Many businesses close for holidays—poor time.
Fall September: 23 C – 12 C (73 – 54 F) mid-October, 17 – 7 C (63 – 45 F). Wear warm jackets, sweaters. Best to visit wineries before or after the busy grape harvest (about mid September to mid October.)
Getting There & Away
Best airport is Turin, a one hour drive from the Barolo wine country. Milan is about 90 minutes by train or car from Turin.
If you're traveling elsewhere in Italy from the Barolo wine country, take the train in Alba to Turin or Asti. Florence is a six hour train ride and Venice and Rome seven.
If you're traveling a long distance in Italy, like to Palermo, fly out of Turin airport.

November 19, 1998
Mr. Eric Fredell
Task Force on Electronic Commerce
International Trade Administration
Department of Commerce
14th and Constitution Avenue, NW
Washington, DC 20230
Re: Comments on International Safe Harbor Privacy Principles
Dear Eric:
The Investment Company Institute1 appreciates the opportunity to provide comments on the Commerce Department's international safe harbor privacy principles. We welcome the principles as an important step towards gaining certainty over the enforcement of the European Union's Data Privacy Directive.
This comment letter is directed to one aspect of the proposed safe harbor of particular importance to the US investment company industry. 2 The third paragraph of the draft states that "an organization qualifies for the safe harbor if it is subject to a statutory, regulatory, administrative, or other body of law that effectively protects personal information privacy." We interpret this sentence to mean that financial services companies that are subject to regulations and enforcement by self-regulatory organizations with respect to the protection of customer privacy will qualify for the safe harbor. We further understand that such will be the case even if those regulations do not embody all of the specific elements contained in the principles, so long as they still "effectively protect" the privacy of personal information. This approach, which the Institute supports, fosters the Clinton Administration's goal of avoiding "one size fits all" regulation of privacy in the US by appropriately allowing an industry's traditional regulator to take the lead in addressing privacy issues for that industry.
In the US, investment companies and their investment advisers and underwriters are subject to a stringent system of regulation administered by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under the various federal securities laws. In addition, the sales activities of investment company underwriters and their agents are regulated by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD). The NASD has proposed a rule specifically dealing with the confidentiality of customer data used for marketing purposes.3 The proposed rule would impose restrictions on the ability of NASD members to share customers' financial information with other entities. We understand that the NASD intends to move forward with its rulemaking later this year, taking into account the comments the proposal received.
The Institute supports rulemaking by the NASD as the appropriate means to deal with privacy issues involving investment companies.4 Such rulemaking can advance the common public policy goal of protecting personal privacy while tailoring investment company privacy regulations to take into account certain unique features in the way investment companies operate and the nature of their relationships with shareholders. 5 It is possible, for example, that the NASD may determine to require disclosure rather than an opt-out procedure for certain types of information-sharing within an investment company complex in recognition of the fact that investors who purchase shares of a mutual fund, in effect, often are entering into a relationship with the entire fund family. As a result, a rigid opt-out requirement, with all its attendant costs, would neither be necessary nor appropriate in these circumstances. Should the NASD concur with this view, firms in compliance with NASD rules nevertheless should be able to avail themselves of the safe harbor.
Accordingly, the Institute and its members strongly urge that any safe harbor established with respect to the EU Directive allow an organization to qualify for the safe harbor on the basis of requirements established by its regulator with respect to the protection of personal information privacy for that industry. This should be the case even if the requirements do not precisely mirror each of the seven specific elements contained in the principles.
Mary S. Podesta
Senior Counsel
1 Investment Company Institute is the national association of the American investment company industry. Its membership includes 7,335 open-end investment companies ("mutual funds"), 451 closed-end investment companies, and 9 sponsors of unit investment trusts. Its mutual fund members have assets of about $4.837 trillion, accounting for approximately 95% of total industry assets, and have over 62 million individual shareholders.
2 The Institute is a member of the Coalition of Service Industries. CSI has filed comments on the proposed international safe harbor that generally reflect the Institute's views with respect to the proposed wording of the privacy principles. In addition to its general support for CSI's comments, the Institute would like to reiterate CSI's comment with respect to the principles of choice and onward transfer. Specifically, the parentheticals in those two principles limit their application to uses of information unrelated to the use(s) for which the information was initially disclosed. These parentheticals must be interpreted broadly. For example, a broker that collects information in order to enter into a brokerage relationship with a customer should be able to use that information to offer the customer the full range of products and services that might be suitable for that customer. In our view, using the information in that manner would be related to the brokerage relationship—the use for which the information was originally disclosed.
3 Proposed Rule 3121, NASDR Notice to Members 97-12 (March 1997).
4 In a letter dated May 5, 1998, the Institute urged the NASD to consider adopting a rule governing customer confidential financial information that appropriately addresses the Institute's concerns with the NASD's earlier proposal.
5 For example, unlike most other types of companies, investment companies are externally managed. They do not have their own employees and their operations are conducted by various affiliated organizations. Information flows among these organizations—the fund, investment adviser, principal underwriter, custodian, administrator, and transfer agent, among others—during the normal course of investment company operations. Some of these flows may implicate privacy concerns that should be addressed; others clearly do not.

One thing I would like to see that would make it much safer to run is to recast it to operate through standalone backends. That is, the idea is bring down old postmaster install new version run new version's pg_upgrade -- all work done without a postmaster start new postmaster It's much harder to get this wrong than it is to mess up with the current situation (where pg_upgrade talks to live postmasters). There isn't any simple way to lock *everyone* out of the DB and still allow pg_upgrade to connect via the postmaster, and even if there were, the DBA could too easily forget to do it. This would require a nontrivial amount of work (notably, we'd have to be able to get pg_dump to run against a standalone backend) but I don't think I'd trust pg_upgrade as a production-grade tool until its invocation method looks like the above. regards, tom lane

How to make 40 thousand children happy for a week?
"I've made 1,000 friends from all over BIH! Can I come next year again?" asks 7 years old girl, while saying goodbye to a young Kids Festival's hostess.
The third Kids Festival, the largest youth happening in BIH, took place in Sarajevo in the first week of school vacations at the beginning of June, attracting some 40,000 kids from all parts of the country to Skenderija – well known sports and youth centre, where the Festival traditionally takes place.
Children from more than 30 cities and towns enjoyed a week long event participating in plenty of educational, cultural and funny workshops. When asked, children were saying that it was "the best day of life" for them.
UNICEF in BIH supported the organization of the event by organizing some 35 busses and providing a daily trip to Sarajevo to thousands of children from rural areas of BIH.
"Children had an opportunity to meet new friends from different parts of the country, some of them to visit the capital for the first time and to enjoy the day dedicated to them exclusively. Our goal was to provide fun, but also to give children the opportunity to learn", stressed Susanna Prahl-Landzo, the Director of the Festival.
Besides organizing the cinema for children, including for those that do not have movie theaters in their communities, The Kid's Festival team ensured that each day of the Festival is eventful and interesting to the children.
For example, the Police Day brought dozens of policemen in uniforms to discuss with adolescents topics like drug abuse and traffic safety. Visually, the most interesting part was a demonstration of various exercises performed by a special police squad.
Video presentation covered human trafficking through a police promotional spot from the human trafficking awareness campaign.
One of the most popular workshops was the one during which children tested their talents in music.
Ambassadors of 15 countries visited the festival during this fabulous week.
One of hundreds groups that visited the Kids Festival in Sarajevo and certainly will remember it was a group of children with special needs from Pazaric institute in Sarajevo. Children were delighted, playing and having fun with their peers from other areas, with no prejudice or differences.
UNICEF BIH seized a good opportunity of having 40,000 children at one place to distribute leaflets with important information on Avian Flu and it's prevention, written in child-friendly language and in rhymes.
"As many of those children live in rural areas, every day being in direct contact with poultry and birds, we are aware of how vulnerable they might be. It is essential to inform them on the risks and the prevention of Avian Flu and this is one of our best opportunities to reach them directly", said Ms. Helena Eversole, Representative of UNICEF in BIH.
For the parents that came to accompany children, UNICEF has distributed a colorful illustrated brochure "MDGs are about children". The idea was to make them participate as well in a meaningful way in the kids' party.
The same day the big event was officially closed, the team opened a new planning book – already starting preparations to make even bigger and better Kids Festival next year!

"Pray without ceasing." "The fervent prayers of a righteous man avails much." In the church where I grew up, I heard these verses a lot. For those who bandied them about they were convenient summaries of their prayer life, or what they wanted it to be. For me they were like slogans for products not for sale in my city.At best prayer was an uneven and elusive discipline. It was often triggered by a crisis: bad traffic, an upcoming test. "Heavenly Father," I started, followed with a statement of … [Read more...]

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON (August 11, 2009) – K2 Snowboarding and renowned pro-rider, Wille Yli-Luoma, are proud to announce an extended partnership through 2011. Wille Yli-Luoma has been an icon in snowboarding since his first huge part in MDP's Decade over ten years ago. As a K2 International Pro Team Member for more than six years, Wille has not only helped to progress snowboarding through one of the best riding styles in the game, but also by his direct involvement in K2 product and technology development.
"I couldn't imagine riding for anyone else besides K2. They have become like family to me and I am so thankful for all of the support they have given me over the years. It's good to know that there are still companies out there that take care of the riders and are focused on snowboarding's best interests," says Wille. "Every product I have ever ridden from K2 is truly at the forefront of the industry. I am so happy with the way that this year's Turbo Dream came out, I don't think I could imagine a more perfect, all-round snowboard."
"Wille has the perfect combination of talent and drive that has made him an invaluable asset to K2 over the years," says Kevin Winkel, K2 Marketing and International Team Manager. "His interest and involvement in everything from product development to creative direction in ads and board graphics has been instrumental in our day-to-day efforts to stay progressive and keep snowboarding fun."
Wille is coming off a great season of filming for People Creative's "Nice Try" and Absinthe's "Neverland," both coming out this fall. He'll also be in Argentina with the rest of the K2 International Pro Team this month riding some mid-summer powder.
For more information on Wille and K2 Snowboarding, including exclusive updates on the travels to South America, go to:
About K2 Snowboarding
Born in the Pacific Northwest in the shadows of the Cascade Mountains, K2 Snowboarding was raised in the backcountry of Baker. From the beginning, our goal has been to create original concepts and technology that drives snowboarding forward. 22 years later, we continue to innovate and progress the sport from the backcountry to the parks…and everything in between.

I was raking up dead prickly pear under a beautiful old mesquite at the side of my house when I uncovered a small metal toy that looked curiously familiar. I set down the rake, picked it up and wiped the dirt off.
I recognized the tiny yellow toy monster truck immediately. My son David loved that irritating thing. I had stepped on it too often to forget it. I still remember Legos I've stepped on in the dark while making my way to the kitchen for a late night glass of milk. Some trauma a parent never forgets.
And then the stupid moist sentimental emotion hit me out of the blue. David's nearly a man now. I've had other children go off to college. Get a grip old man.
Usually when I find something of David's it's part of the standard trail of teenager litter: shoes, socks, pens, pencils, caps, T-shirts, empty pizza boxes and half empty soda cans. None of those objects ever moved me to do anything but yell at him. This dirty miniature gas hog was different.
The shame is he's leaving just as he's becoming a pleasant man to know, a young adult, tall and broad-shouldered. When my giant is feeling mischievous he picks me up from behind, "cracks my back," and sets me down like I'm a small pet, convinced he's doing me a favor. Thanks, Paul Bunyan. I assume it's turnabout for all the times I picked him up and played "flying baby," zooming through the house. Welcome to "Honey, I shrunk the parents."
Should I show him the truck? The boy has become the man who put away childish things.
"I'm stoked. I can't wait to move into the dorm." We're "stoked" too. No more fretting every Friday and Saturday night waiting for your safe return. Now it will be just one year-long fret. (We're praying his roommate is a cross between Jimmy Neutron and Mitt Romney, a nerd who says things like "Let's study," and "Hey, watch the language, dude.")
His younger brother, Matt, can't wait to see his nemesis leave. Dave can't wait to get away from the pest. The house will be quieter. When you have more than one kid you have multiple suspects at the scene of every crime, all claiming innocence. Who shot a pellet at the window? Who threw that rock? Who attacked my cactus with a machete? At last, my days of playing Inspector Clouseau are behind me.
I'll keep his room preserved as an archaeological exhibit of how teenagers lived in 2014. The door, alone, is a work of art rivaling the stele of Hammurabi; a collage of cut-out "Zits" comic strips pinned over miniposters, bumper stickers and graffiti such as "There is no wealth but life."
Cartoonists are cursed to see everyday objects, leaves, trees, cars and even toy trucks as animation fodder, creatures possessing life. The rusted toy truck in my hands has a heart and squinting eyes that saw my son crawl, cry, walk and talk. That toy truck heard us wish our chatterbox had never learned to talk. That toy truck got thrown at daddy's head by a very bad boy. That toy truck waited for him to get out of timeout like a buddy waiting at the prison gates for a parolee. That truck made sure I'd step on it late at night in the dark. The demonic thing had a bite.
A few days after I moved out of my parents' home, I went back home to see them.
"What did you do with my room, Mom?"
"Come and see for yourself!"
"Did you change it?"
Yes, she did. In the middle of my now barren room there sat a framed picture of her beloved dog next to a bouquet of flowers atop a small table.
"My room is a shrine for your cockapoo now?"
"I thought this would be nice to look at for a change."
The toy truck in my hand reminded me of the 10,000 changes that carried me on this journey so far away from my own childhood. I tried to imagine the time when I would gleefully get on my hands and knees to play with a toy truck in the dirt. Too old now. Swing low sweet chariot. I pocketed David's orphaned toy and kept the memories to myself.
When he moves out in August, we'll say our "good lucks" and we'll exchange man hugs. I'll put on my "proud of you" face and let go. Later that night he'll be sleeping elsewhere for the first time in our lives. I'll put the toy truck on his nightstand in his room where it will wait for him. And I'll leave the door open.

School surfing classes 'a disgrace': Nelson
Page Tools
Surfing ... the minister has some concerns about the value of
surfing as a Higher School Certificate course.
Surfboard riding was today facing a wipeout as a Higher School Certificate subject in NSW schools, with the federal government branding its curriculum status "an absolute disgrace".
Byron Bay High School, on the NSW north coast, developed the course last year as part of its applied sport, leisure and recreation courses.
The NSW Board of Studies this year endorsed it as a Higher School Certificate subject that counts towards the student's final marks, but does not count toward students' Universities Admission Index scores.
About 16 students at the school have chosen the course, among them surfers on the world junior contest tour who are sponsored by surfboard and surfwear companies including Billabong, Quicksilver and Rip Curl.
Federal Education Minister Brendan Nelson said the sport made a mockery of the education system.
"It's bad enough that we've got some of these cappuccino courses in our universities," Mr Nelson said.
"That we're now apparently offering it as an HSC subject ... well it's just an absolute disgrace."
NSW Education Minister Carmel Tebbutt said she had today asked the Board of Studies to explain why it had allowed surfing to be included in the school curriculum.
"Part of the value of having board-endorsed courses is that you can put in place creative courses for students who have no intention of going on to university and it keeps them connected to school," Ms Tebbutt told reporters.
"I wouldn't want to lose that benefit but I've got some concerns about the value of surfing as a Higher School Certificate course."
But Ms Tebbutt later said she would have no difficulty accepting the board's decision if it could be shown the course would provide a path for the students to help them find employment and keep them connected to education.
Byron Bay High School principal Barry Miller said the course was a legitimate vocational subject that gave the students a link to the district's prosperous surf industry.
He said they learned event management, marketing and advertising skills, how to make and care for their equipment, forecasting weather and surf conditions and how to judge surfing contests.
"We're talking in terms of links to a multi, multi million dollar industry here that these students could well and truly get access to," Mr Miller told AAP.
"When people criticise, they are looking at the superficial stuff - why are kids surfing when they should be at school?
"But this is very much a vocational course."
The NSW Board of Studies said the course met the requirements for an HSC subject because it focuses on job opportunities and developing skills.
"It isn't a 'mickey mouse' course," the board's president, Gordon Stanley, told ABC radio.
"It's a course which covers a range of skills which are important for employment in the surfing industry.
"And of course that employment might range from promotion through to building and developing surfboards."

A Five-Year-Old Bull
It may be hard to believe, but the bull market is already turning five years old, and Cramer took time out to celebrate the 170% gain the markets have seen since their lows in March of 2009.
As with any bull market, there are always plenty of bears touting that the end is near. Cramer said it would be easy to say the market's on its last legs and overstayed its welcome, but he's not joining in on the negativity and remains focused on stocks that offer a good risk reward.
What are the bears fretting over? Cramer said it could be anything -- from the overvalued cult stocks to the over-hyped cloud computing sector to the slowdown in retail or housing.
Cramer said that it's true that some sectors in the market are indeed frothy, but as he says at the beginning of every show, "there's always a bull market somewhere" -- and he's here every night to help us find it.
Lightning Round
In the Lightning Round, Cramer was bullish on Chelsea Therapeutics (CHTP) and Zynga (ZNGA).
Cramer was bearish on Solazyme (SZYM), Retrophin (RTRX), InvenSense (INVN) and Bob Evans Farms (BOBE).
Executive Decision: Peter Gassner
For his second "Executive Decision" segment, Cramer spoke with Peter Gassner, co-founder and CEO of Veeva Systems (VEEV), a stock that's been hit hard since it last reported earnings.
Gassner explained that Veeva brings cloud-based applications to life science companies, helping to take a $1.6 trillion industry away from inefficient client-server-based software and into an easier-to-use and more cost-effective way of doing business.

Referring to him as a "leader in haptic technology," the American Society of Mechanical Engineers featured Cagdas Onal, assistant professor of mechanical engineering, in the article. "Many potential applications exist, including prosthetic/orthotic devices, wearable technologies, robotic collaborators/assistants, elder care, and systems that augment human performance," Onal said.
A collaborative team of students, faculty, and professional engineers from WPI and Carnegie Mellon University perform groundbreaking research with the Atlas humanoid robot WARNER, to bring advanced human-level performance capabilities.

But given that this code is dead, and we are mixing up positive and negative errors in io_error I decided it's better to remove it for now.

Dottie Heads to Masters
Next week, Saratoga-native Dottie Pepper will broadcast from Augusta National, site of The Masters. She is working for ESPN's coverage of the first and second rounds. Is she nervous? Excited? Worried about what she might say?
We discussed that and a lot more including the role of women in the game of golf and her children's book venture, "Bogey Tees Off."
Pepper was a guest on Fox Sports 980's "Big Board Sports" with host Rodger Wyland and John Craig of WGY, who is also the golf writer for the "Troy Record" newspaper.
We conducted the interview on Tuesday, April 1, just an hour or so before Tiger Woods announced he would skip The Masters, a tournament he's won four times, because of back surgery. Click below to listen to our conversation, which runs 12:09.

needing a better scope
I have s be optic 10x42 it's ok out to 100 yards but past that it's hard place on target and I'm tryin to reach out to 600 yards I don't have a ton of money to invest into glass any input would be helpful
1 Attachment(s)
I can understand your need for a larger scope. But the facts are it is not all about a more powerful scope. The lowly 6X power John Malcolm scopes have "Sent" many fatal rounds down range for over 150 years. The art of long range shooting is more than magnification. :)
This 6X Power Leatherwood Malcolm mounted on a Sharps Gemmer 45-110 will bang steel at 1,000 meters.:)
If a 10 power scope is only ok at 100 yards you may have quality problem or its just your skill level is lacking. My hunting rifle a 3-12 on a custom hunting rifle that's good for 12 at 400 yards with one brand of factory ammo BUT only if I do MY job. Budget and long range don't go together well ether.
I have a cheap 4x fixed power scope on my 270. I have no problems making 300 yard shots with it. If you crank the magnification up to 10x at 100 yards you are opening a box of worms. I shot a crow just a couple days ago that was partially hidden by a pine top with a 3x9 scope. He was a little more than 150 yards away. I had the scope set on 5x. I am sure I can duplicate the shot.
Quality of the scope will have more to do with ability to get hits at range than simply the magnification. Also the quality of the mounts, the rings, the rifle, the ammo, and of course, the shooter.
What kind of rig are you running now? What ammo? How are you shooting?(standing, sitting, prone, from a bench). What is your accuracy goal. Paper plate sized groups at 600 yds, or are you going for a bench rest record at under an inch at 600yds?
Current and older military scopes are often maxed out in power at 10x. Some competition scopes are in that power range while others get almost ridiculous at 24x.
A bit more info may help is to help you out better.
Like 'ol What-his-name says "cheaply priced hookers and optics are
usually a warning sign" . . .
I have to agree you may be looking for a better quality 10X40, depending
on your situation.
Otherwise, you may want to be patient, and save your money, for awhile...
Your really not explaining what the issue is. Explain the issue and if you can post a pic of the scope mounted on the rifle, it could help more.
Good Glass is important (as SSGN_Doc clearly stated).
You will have sharper images, minimize distortion, better light transmission, better mechanics, sharper reticules with a quality scope
Your problems with poor quality are compounded if your magnification is increased. Aberrations, poor mechanical re-centering, limited sweet spot on eye-relief will all make you wish you had bought a simpler, but better scope.
I have an old Leupold M8-2x fixed scope (only two power), but it is one of my nicest.. also have a Burris 2x that is VERY NICE.
Both are long eye relief, so these aren't for your rifle most likely.
But there are nice fixed power scopes out there.
This is the time to stop by your Local Gun Store or Sportsman shop and give them the business.
Compare, Decide and Buy.
For me, good glass translates to faster time on target.
Which, IMHO, means you lose less game.

DescriptionIn this game, you control Marvin the Cube Master. You move him around a six-sided cube with nine squares to a side. The object is to get all nine sides to be one color each in the least amount of time or fewest moves, depending on the game variation you select.
Marvin changes a space's color by standing on it and you pressing the fire button. Marvin will then exchange the color he is with the space. Marvin cannot move onto a space of the same color as he is.
To rotate the cube, just move to the edge and press the joystick in the direction to rotate.
The game variations allow for normal or fast speed or timed race or fewest moves. Other variations cause the cube to show all the spaces as black except when it rotates, so you don't know what color your on. Two of the game variations, one a timed race and the other a fewest moves challenge, restrict you rotations to up and right only, but do not black out the spaces.
Eight of the game variations have the computer play the game itself.

Release historyThis game was initially sold only through the Atari Club by mail order. After Atari was sold by Time-Warner, the remaining copies were sold through stores.
This game started out as Atari Video Cube but then Atari changed their minds about licensing the Rubik's Cube name and sold it as Rubik's Cube initially. Later, perhaps because they could no longer afford the name Rubik's Cube or to just save money, Atari returned the game to the name Atari Video Cube.

wimpwm is a window manager. It is based on Yakazao, a window manager I had written before. It is called wimpwm because it is for people like me who are too wimpy to use colorful and bloated window managers.
wimpwm is free software that comes under the GNU General Public License. In essence, this means that the program comes with full source code and may be modified and re-distributed, as long as the copyright notices in all files remain unmodified. Also, there is NO WARRANTY of any kind -- if wimpwm should wipe your disk, bad luck.
There are a lot of things wimpwm cannot do. For most people, lack of theose features would be a reason not to use wimpwm, so I put them into a section called "Anti-Features", although I would rather put them into the Features section above.
I have not encountered any bugs in the past few days, but one item is currently on my fix-list: When I switch on opaque move mode, the titlebar does not get redrawn during the move. I don't use opaque move, so I will only fix that on request. Anyway, opaque moving is not documented anyway, so this should not be a problem unless you switch it on in the source code.
I put together some documentation for wimpwm, but it's rather sparse. There is a User's Manual, which is available online in HTML format. If you like it in another format you can take the texinfo source from the source distribution of wimpwm and generate it yourself. The source distribution is available from the download section below. In the case you don't have the Texinfo tools, drop me a mail to email@example.com and I can put Postscript or DVI files or whatever-format-suits-your-needs onto the server.
I am really interested what you think about wimpwm. If you like it, send me a mail and tell me what you liked. If you don't like it, send me a mail telling me the reason, maybe I can fix it.
Please send all mail concerning wimpwm to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Here is a screenshot of wimpwm:
You can download the latest version of wimpwm from the following list:
In order to build wimpwm, just untar it into a directory of your choice, configure and make it. More on configuring is in the file INSTALL in the top-level directory. Also have a look at the files README-alpha and README, and especially at the file COPYING which states the license under which wimpwm is distributed.
wimpwm basically needs the following software installed in order to build and run:
wimpwm has been successfully built on several GNU/Linux machines using 2.2 kernels and has been used to run on a local X server and a remote X server on a Sun SPARC IPC without problems. By the way, this Sun is the reason why wimpwm is so feature-lacking, its' X server is so damn slow, you would not want to run anything doing nifty graphics on it. wimpwm also builds and runs without problems on Solaris 7, but you need gcc installed (maybe it also runs with Sun's cc, I have not tried that).
When I started, I was heavily inspired by aewm, the ascetic window manager written by Decklin Foster. The mouse button bindings come from that window manager. The key bindings are taken from evilwm, written by Ciaran Anscomb. In the meantime, all code I took from those window managers has been replaced with my own, but the overall structure may still be visible. The style of window resizing came from twm.

Syndrome Of The Day: Midlife Mirror Angst Syndrome
Another day, another affliction that women suffer from. Today it's Midlife Mirror Angst Syndrome which, according to a new study, is a syndrome that 90 percent of women in their 40s and 50s suffer from. It is a glorified way of saying that most middle-aged women hate what they see when they look in the mirror because they are old. Oh, and society is ageist in case you weren't aware.
Changes wrought by age, combined with a youth-obsessed fashion industry, led to a dramatic drop in body confidence for women the older they get — resulting in Midlife Mirror Angst Syndrome … There's no psychological underpinning for this, but the fact remains that at midlife, women can feel invisible — or at worse, unattractive.
Ack. Midlife Mirror Angst Syndrome is a stupid name for an ugly truth — we seem to hate ourselves at every age. Can we cut out all this depressing female self-hatred business because I'm getting Sick of Stupid Syndrome Names Syndrome? I don't know how, yet, but I am going to come up with a cure that will destroy all these "lady syndromes." Any brilliant ideas? Please share. [Daily Mail UK]
