8,000 posters removed as civic agency cracks down on defacement
"It's a rainy day, posters will be soggy so rip them off!" - touting this as their mantra to make the national capital clean, the Municipal Corporation of Delhi on Thursday said it managed to remove 8,000 posters in a single day.delhi Updated: Aug 27, 2009 17:44 IST
"It's a rainy day, posters will be soggy so rip them off!" - touting this as their mantra to make the national capital clean, the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) on Thursday said it managed to remove 8,000 posters in a single day.
Attempting to make Delhi's walls free from posters and handbills, MCD had on Monday launched a drive to rid the city of posters and declared Aug 24 as Poster Free Day.
According to Additional Deputy Commissioner Amiya Chandra, 400 MCD staffers in 12 zones in coordination with 14 traders associations and several resident welfare associations (RWA) swung into action and were "very successful".
"This is the first time we have marked a day to ensure a crackdown against defacement of public property and the drive was very successful. The staff kept count that 8,000 posters were removed," Chandra told IANS.
"In addition, 30 police complaints were registered against regular offenders. We plan to take these cases to the next level and follow up on the prosecution," he added.
The campaign, Municipal Commissioner K S Mehra said, was launched "to make the city look clean and beautiful ahead of the Commonwealth Games scheduled in October 2010".
Interestingly, there is a reason behind the timing of MCD's defacement drive.
"The decision was taken because it is monsoon season, the posters or hand bills or pamphlets stuck on the walls of the public properties get soggy and can be easily removed," Mehra explained.
Chandra said that MCD wants to raise awareness and "build up a movement or cult against making the city dirty. Now that we have made an attempt, residents should on their own have the urge to remove a poster. We all walk the city, so when out on a morning walk, rip one off. All it needs is each person to remove one poster".
Under the Delhi Prevention of Defacement of Property Act 2007, defacement of public property or walls is a cognizable offence and doing so can warrant imprisonment for a term up to one year or fine of Rs.50,000.
However, some are sceptical about MCD's campaign. "The civic agency needs these drives as a PR (public relation) exercise, to make residents feel they are doing their job," said Rajiv Kakaria of Greater Kailash-I RWA.
"Who put up the posters in the first place? If they (MCD officials) had been vigilant, there would never be a need for such a drive. As RWAs, we are willing to pitch in but this should not be a one-off event," he added.

| Tributes
NAL salutes its former Directors, elders, well-wishers, friends and retired colleagues
Dr P Nilakantan
Dr B R Somashekar
Dr B R Somashekar has been so much a part of NAL for about 35 years that it is hard to conceive of NAL without him. I vividly remember the day when I requested him to take over as the Head of the Structures Division when his predecessor left for UK on deputation. He was at that time a Scientist 'C' and not the seniormost person. From what little I had observed of him till that time, I had the gut feeling that he had all the makings to be a good administrator; he had, by then, already established the record of being a capable scientist.
Developments in the Structures Division since then, and the way Somashekar built up the Division over the years, more than justified the trust I had reposed in him. It is now considered the best run Division of NAL. Perhaps Somashekar's most important contribution to the Division is the development of capability, both for analysis and fabrication, in composites structures. The contributions being made by this group to the LCA programme (in carbon fibre wing and centre fuselage fabrication) are well known. The Division's contributions under his broad leadership in the other fields of structures such as vibration, aeroelasticity and computer based analytical techniques for tackling complex problems in structures have won rich accolades for Structures Division, and the reputation of being one of the best in its field of scientific and technical endeavour. I can't think of a more fitting tribute to an outstanding leader like Somashekar!
What many people do not know is the role Somashekar played from behind the scenes in running NAL effectively: whether it involved lending a helping hand in tackling innumerable problems of day to day management or becoming a sounding board to evolve policy on a number of issues ... Somashekar proved to be a valuable ally of every NAL Director, particularly after 1977. It is all too easy for a Director to make mistakes. Disinterestedly interested advice from well-intentional people can be very valuable in such situations and Somashekar played this role superbly.
With his self-effacing manners, his ability to give thorough attention to detail and his gift to get along with one and all, Dr Somashekar became, over the years, an indispensable part of NAL management, particularly in the last few years. All of us who have known him have come to admire him with a feeling bordering on affection. He will be missed in NAL, but we his friends and admirers wish him the very best in the years to come.

Anthropology takes a holistic approach to the study of humankind by examining its cultural, social, linguistic, biological-evolutionary, environmental and historical dimensions. It is an interdisciplinary field that draws on the methods and theories of both the social sciences and the humanities. Its core concept is 'culture' and its hallmark methodology is long-term participant observational fieldwork.
The study of anthropology not only develops within students an understanding and appreciation of societies and cultures different than their own, but also provides a critical understanding of how Western societies have viewed and interacted with other societies. Because of its focus on cross-cultural and international issues and analysis, the study of anthropology is particularly useful for students considering careers in fields such as college teaching and research, international business and law, foreign service and diplomacy, private and governmental development and foreign aid programs, missions, and human rights.
Anthropology also provides valuable training for students considering careers in human service fields such as social work, counseling, health care delivery and education. Some famous anthropologists are Margaret Mead, Paul Farmer (Partners in Health), Zora Neale Hurston, Jane Goodall, Claude Levi-Strauss, Stanley Ann Dunham (mother of President Barack Obama), Kurt Vonnegut, Jim Yong Kim (President of the World Bank), Mary and Louis Leakey, Michael Savage, Ashraf Ghani (President of Afghanistan), and Joan Lunden.

The goal of the curriculum for the anthropology program, which results a minor in Anthropology, is to provide a broad four-field context in the introductory course (socio-cultural, biological, archeological, and linguistic) out of which students pursue an in-depth study of socio-cultural anthropology. Courses beyond the introductory course are designed to give the student in-depth exposure to the concepts, methods and theories of socio-cultural anthropology, to the ethnography of a particular world area, and to one additional sub-field.
Our program seeks to provide a broad understanding of human nature, and of questions concerning the similarities and differences among humans throughout the world, using both social scientific and humanistic/interpretive methods. Students develop an understanding and appreciation of societies and cultures different from their own, and a critical understanding of how Western societies have viewed and interacted with other societies. Students develop both analytic skills and communication skills in the course of this inquiry.
The Anthropology Club offers students an opportunity to organize both academic and social events for those interested in Anthropology.
This award is presented to the senior who has a Minor or Concentration in Anthropology and who has demonstrated academic excellence and shows promise in the field of Anthropology.
Founded in 1902, the American Anthropological Association is the world's largest organization of individuals interested in anthropology. Learn more at www.aaanet.org.

A #1 "New York Times"-bestselling author takes readers deep into the rugged Black Hills of South Dakota, where the shadows hide secrets, hunters stalk the land, and a childhood friendship matures into an adult passion.
A summer at his grandparents' South Dakota ranch is not eleven-year-old Cooper Sullivan's idea of a good time. But things are a bit more bearable now that he's discovered the neighbor girl, Lil Chance, and her homemade batting cage. Even horseback riding isn't as awful as Coop thought it would be. Each year, with Coop's annual summer visit, their friendship deepens from innocent games to stolen kisses, but there is one shared experience that will forever haunt them: the terrifying discovery of a hiker's body.
As the seasons change and the years roll, Lil stays steadfast to her dreams of becoming a wildlife biologist and protecting her family land, while Coop struggles with his father's demand that he attend law school and join the family firm. Twelve years after they last walked together hand in hand, fate has brought them back to the Black Hills when the people and things they hold most dear need them most.
An investigator in New York, Coop recently left his fastpaced life to care for his aging grandparents and the ranch he has come to call home. Though the memory of his touch still haunts her, Lil has let nothing stop her dream of opening the Chance Wildlife Refuge, but something . . . or someone . . . has been keeping a close watch. When small pranks and acts of destruction escalate into the heartless killing of Lil's beloved cougar, recollections of an unsolved murder in these very hills have Coop springing to action to keep Lil safe.
Lil and Coop both know the natural dangers that lurk in the wild landscape of the Black Hills. But now they must work together to unearth a killer of twisted and unnatural instincts who has singled them out as prey.

Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) Strategies
The centerpiece of funding for many stabilization plans is the federal Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP). The program is administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to aid in purchase of foreclosed or abandoned homes and to rehabilitate, resell, or redevelop these homes in order to stabilize neighborhoods and stem the decline of house values of neighboring homes.
As of July 23, 2010, there are three rounds of Neighborhood Stabilization Program funding: NSP1, a term that references the NSP funds authorized under Division B, Title III of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act (HERA) of 2008, provided grants to all states and selected local governments on a formula basis; NSP2, a term that references the NSP funds authorized under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009, provided grants to states, local governments, nonprofits and consortia of entities on a competitive basis; and NSP3, authorized under the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, will provide funds on a formula basis to states and selected local governments.
AT A GLANCE: NSP 1, 2 and 3
|Act passed in 2008 (Division B, Title III of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act [HERA] of 2008)
|Announced and applications due in 2009 (Title XII of Division A of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, [the Recovery Act]. Awards announced 2010.

|Number of Awards
|Funds are to be obligated within 18 months of availability to recipient; and expended within 4 years.
|Recipients must expend 50% of allocated funds within 2 years of the date funds are available to the recipient, and 100% of funds must be expended within 3 years.
|Grantees have 2 years from the date HUD signs their grant agreements to expend 50% of the funds and 3 years to expend 100%.
NSP is administered as Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, though with differences from the normal CDBG provisions. The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) is a program of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The purpose of CDBG funding is to improve communities through affordable and safe housing, anti-poverty programs, infrastructure development, and expansion of economic opportunities. Local governments received allocations in NSP1 and participated in either the entitlement program (for cities with over 50,000 people or counties with over 200,000 people) or the States and Small Cities Program (for communities with less than 50,000 people). CDBG funds are subject to less federal oversight than other categorical grants and are largely used at the discretion of the state and local governments. For additional information:
How Much Funding Is Available
The first round of funding, NSP1, was $3.92 billion, allocated to states and local government participating jurisdictions through an analysis of foreclosure impact. Of the $3.92 billion total, each state received a minimum of $19.6 million (0.5%) of the funds. Download the specific city and state allocations from HUD here.
The second round of funding, NSP2, was $2 billion - awarded through a competitive application process open to government entities and nonprofit organizations, including consortia. For-profits were allowed to apply as part of a consortium with nonprofit organizations and/or government entities. Download NSP2 allocations here.
The third round of funding, NSP3, is $1 billion, and has been allocated through a formula like NSP1. For a list of NSP3 allocations, click here.
What Funds Can Be Used For
- Establish financing mechanisms for purchase and redevelopment of foreclosed homes (including soft-seconds, loan loss reserves, and shared-equity loans for low- and moderate-income homebuyers)
- Purchase and rehabilitate properties that have been abandoned or foreclosed. Rehab may include improvements to increase energy efficiency or provide a renewable energy source
- Establish land banks for homes that have been foreclosed
- Demolish blighted structures
- Redevelop demolished or vacant properties
Funds can not be used for the following:
- Those activities ineligible under CDBG are ineligible under NSP (generally)
- Foreclosure prevention
- Demolition of non-blighted structures
- Purchase of properties not abandoned or foreclosed upon
Guidance and clarification on how NSP funds can be used is available through:
- HUD's Neighborhood Stabilization Resource Exchange
- Neighborhood Stabilization Program: Q & A for Housing Developers prepared by the National Community Stabilization Trust
- The HUD FAQ page
- The HUD Policy Guidance page
- For specific questions about your jurisdiction contact your local HUD Community Planning & Development Director.
How are Grantees Planning to Administer their Neighborhood Stabilization Program?
Each grantee receiving an allocation of NSP funds is required to submit an action plan to the local HUD field office. Grantees are required to post their action plans on their public web sites. Action plans and contact information for all NSP grantees can be found at the Granteesection of HUD's Neighborhood Stabilization Resource Exchange.
NSP Targeting Requirements
The Neighborhood Stabilization Program has three specific targeting responsibilities for how funds may be used.
- All funds must go towards programs that serve individuals and families whose income does not exceed 120 percent of area median income;
- At least 25 percent of the funds must be used for the purchase and redevelopment of abandoned, foreclosed or vacant homes or residential properties that will be used to house individuals and families whose incomes are less than 50 percent of area median income;
- Jurisdictions that receive NSP funds must give priority emphasis to the areas of greatest need within their states, including those:
- Areas with the greatest percentage of foreclosures
- Areas with the highest percentage of homes financed by subprime mortgage related loans, and
- Areas identified as likely to face a significant rise in the rate of home foreclosures
Maps of NSP1 and NSP2 target areas can be found at NSP Maps.
Data and How to identify areas of greatest need
HUD offers data to help jurisdictions determine areas that meet the targeting requirements under the NSP. The following data are available through HUD:
- FY 2008 50% and 120% HUD Area Income Limits for each grantee area
- Click through map for each statethat provides an excel file that includes:
- List of Census Block Group (or part) in each state that does or does not qualify as an area of low-, moderate-, and middle-income (LMMH) benefit. (Where more than 51% of the given area had incomes of less than 120% of Area Median Income in FY 2000)
- Foreclosure and Abandonment Risk Score – this assessment developed by HUD provides a score for each Census Block Group from 0 to 10, where 0 indicates that HUD data suggest a very low risk and a 10 suggests a very high risk for foreclosure and abandonment.
- Predicted 18 month underlying problem and foreclosure rate
HUD has encouraged state and local government to use this data as a place to start in considering how to target their funds. It is important to note that the Foreclosure and Abandonment Risk Score and Predicted Foreclosure Rate do not give a picture of the actual level of problem in each neighborhood, but rather indicate there is a risk for problems.
To help states and communities make informed decisions about how to allocate and spend these funds, the Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) has developed a dataset with foreclosure "needs scores" for Community Development Block Grant. This resource is available through the Foreclosure Response project, a collaboration of the Center for Housing Policy, KnowledgePlex, LISC, and the Urban Institute.

Wallenda to perform hour-long shows twice daily at Darien Lake throughout summer
Daredevil Nik Wallenda and his family will spend the summer in Western New York.
The high-wire artist will perform a 60-minute show twice daily at Darien Lake starting in June, Wallenda and park officials announced Wednesday morning.
The show, called "Nik Wallenda: Beyond the Falls," will run from June 23 through Sept. 1, except for Mondays, in the park's 1,800-seat indoor Galaxy Theatre.
For 10 weeks, Wallenda and his family will stay in Western New York to perform.
"My family is beyond thrilled to be coming back to what I do consider my second home," Wallenda said during a news conference at a Tim Horton's on Main Street in Williamsville.
As part of the Wallendas' time at the theme park, park-goers will get a chance to see the aerialists up close and personal through an "interactive tightrope training academy" three times daily.
Wallenda's wife, Erendira, and mother, Delilah, will be among the show's performers.
Wallenda walked across Niagara Falls in June 2012, a feat viewed internationally by 13 million people. He also walked across the Grand Canyon last year.
The Darien Lake shows will include a pyramid act, bicycle riding and pole climbing.
At their highest, the high-wire artists will be 55 feet above the ground, Wallenda said.
Admission to the high-wire show will be included in the price of a daily or season pass to the Genesee County amusement park. The ability to purchase upgraded seating will also be available, including the chance to meet Wallenda backstage.
The Wallendas' residence at Darien Lake will also include unscheduled "pop-up" performances along the park's midway, as well as a regular showing of a 30-minute film chronicling the history of the Wallenda family's high flying feats.
Wallenda said he will also perform at this year's Erie County Fair.
Wallenda said Darien Lake approached him about the venture. He remains open to establishing a more permanent presence in Niagara Falls, though talks so far have been unfruitful, he said.
"It takes time to get things done in Niagara Falls," Wallenda said.

Germany - Pantano wins Formula 3 title for Opel.
Giorgio Pantano celebrated winning the German Formula 3 Championship at Hockenheim on Sunday with a podium place finish in the second of the two 12-lap races around the GP circuit driving his Opel Team KMS Dallara/Opel. Pantano had taken the series lead mid-season and three race wins helped him pull clear of rivals to win by over 20 points from Alexander Mueller (Dallara/Honda).

South Africa - Vice-champion's title for Watson-Smith.
It was a disappointing end to the South African Touring Car Championship for Team Petronas Syntium Opel at Killarney in Cape Town on Saturday, scoring just one podium finish in the two races for Deon Joubert and his Vectra.
First and second in the series were already determined before the start of the event in favour of Giniel De Villiers (Nissan) and Opel Motorsport's Shaun Watson-Smith, so all eyes were on Opel's Deon Joubert and Nissan's Duncan Vos in the fight for third place in the series.
Joubert arrived at the circuit with a 17-point advantage over his rival, but qualifying signalled that the team would have to fight hard to maintain Joubert's advantage. While Nissan dominated the first three positions on the grid for both races, Opel's Silvio Scribante was the closest challenger in fourth for both races. With the other two Vectras carrying success ballast from previous rounds, Watson-Smith lined up seventh for race one and tenth for race two, while Joubert lined up eighth and seventh respectively.
Joubert drove a superb first race, fighting his way through to third, just one place behind Vos. However, his challenge fell apart in the second race when he was caught up in a first lap, multi-car accident. The incident forced him to pit for repairs, costing him two laps and dropping him to 13th place. With Vos winning the race, he lost third in the championship by just two points.

(Shameless email thread hijacking)
 I haven't been around nearly as long as Al, and don't have as many specific points of change for which I am interested in agitating, but I have some general similarities in my take on the elections. I have enjoyed finding and becoming more involved in this community. I am a do-first-ask-questions-later kind of gal, and my contributions to the community have been a healthy mix of helping others with their projects, working on my own cockamamie schemes, and running off at the mouth (sometimes following through) on how I think things could be improved.

I am still not sure about how I feel about sitting on the board. Vote for me, or don't. I, like Al, intend to Do Some Things whether I am on the board or not. Mine may not involve rules so much as randomly painting things, breaking them, or fixing them, as I think circumstances warrant. I think that everyone up for the board has proven themselves to be do-ocratic leaders and I think we can foster leadership without creating Rulers.

Also, I am voting for miloh and think everyone else should too. Not because of his charming face and winning personality but because I think he has given his heart to Noisebridge. He shows this regularly both with material support and do-ocratically, by showing up, teaching people, doing things, and helping others.Ā Anyone who doesn't think so clearly must hate America.

Nandish Sandhu, popularly known as Veer Singh Bundela from the serial Uttaran, is a hard core fitness freak. The heart-throb of young audiences says fitness is equal to worship, "I follow my fitness regime religiously. I feel it's very important to be fit in today's world." A chiselled body, a cute face and an attitude. But quiz him on the secret of his perfect body and he says, "A perfect body comes from a healthy mind. I feel a perfect body is not all about perfect abs, muscles or curves but it is about a fat free body. One should just try and be fit and perfection will automatically follow," says the actor who follows a strict diet and loves weight training.
His diet comprises small meals at regular breaks, "My breakfast usually consists of cornflakes with milk or egg white omelette with multigrain bread and a handful of dry fruits that have been soaked overnight. My lunch includes chicken with brown rice, chappati, dal, curd and dinner is mostly at home — boiled chicken, soup and sometimes chappati. When I feel hungry, I have brown bread sandwiches, dry fruits, fresh fruits or a protein shake. Work permitting, I try to eat in time. I normally try to avoid sweets, but being a hardcore foodie, I binge once a week. I am allowed to cheat once a week," adds Sandhu.
But the actor says Rambo and Rocky have had a big influence on him since childhood but he also credits our very own Sanju Baba for the inspiration, "I started exercising looking at Sanjay Dutt and Rocky Balboa," adds Sandhu. Ask him about his first workout and the actor shudders at the thought of it. "It was embarrassing because everyone in the gym was picking up weights and had a well toned body while I was skinny and could hardly pick up the weights," says a shy Sandhu.
But the best ever compliment he got was when he was compared to Bollywood's greek god Salman, "One of my fans compared my body to the young Salman Khan. I really felt good," says the hot shot actor who admires and envies Hrithik Roshan for his lean perfect body. But despite the strict workout regime that he follows, he does confess that when he feels lazy he gives it a miss. "I workout when I feel energised, fresh and mentally strong," and signs off by saying, "A healthy lifestyle and proper workouts leads to a fit body." Finally a piece of advice to all his fans, "Understand your body and workout accordingly. Everyone's body is different so don't copy your friend's workout schedule. Eat healthy and rest properly for muscle recovery. Only a healthy mind can support a healthy body," says the actor.

Mostly muted during his introductory news conference, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope had a moment Tuesday where his lips parted into a bright grin.
It happened when he was reminded that at the ripe old age of 24, entering his fifth NBA season, he qualifies as a veteran on the young Lakers team he just joined.
"I'm laughing," Lakers President of Basketball Operations Magic Johnson said. "You're old at five years in the league."
Caldwell-Pope chuckled too.
"I'm just hope to bring the leadership," he said. "Just try to get the guys' motor going. Get them going in different ways. You gotta come at people in different ways. You gotta figure out how they work."

Seneca Valley turns to up-tempo offense after losing trio of big men
T.J. Holl loves it.
Victor Giannotta can't stand it.
Regardless, it's tough to argue with the results the Seneca Valley boys basketball team has achieved with its new, fast-paced offense.
After graduating Alex Snyder, Easton Bazzoli and R.J. McCauley, starters who were 6-foot-7, 6-5 and 6-3, the Raiders are relying on a run-and-gun approach that's producing 18.3 more points per game than last season.
"I like running the floor, making plays on the run," said Holl, who's averaging 12.2 points and 5.8 rebounds. "It's fun, and it's hard for defenses to cover."
It's even more difficult for Giannotta, in his 22nd year as a high school coach, to wrap his head around.
"I hate it," he said. "But the kids like it. I guess I'm getting soft. We do whatever the kids want."
Why does he hate it so much?
"I'd rather play inside out than outside in," Giannotta added. "But that's just the way it goes."
Seneca Valley (5-1, 2-0 Section 3-AAAA) owns wins over Penn Hills, Brashear, Shaler, Perry and North Hills, with its only loss coming to Mars on a 3-pointer at the buzzer.
Holl said the transition has been anything but easy and chalked up the Mars loss to exactly that.
"We struggled filling spots and pushing it up the floor," Holl said. "We've done a decent job of running the floor, but we have to put it all together."
Seneca Valley went to the new offense because only Holl, a 6-2 guard, and 5-11 guard Matt Darby returned as starters.
Zach Snyder, a 6-6 forward, has emerged as a capable scorer, to lead the team at 21.0 points, along with 6.2 rebounds, per game.
But aside from reserve forward Josh Bauers, who's 6-5, nobody has to duck going through doorways.
"We don't like to slow it up," Snyder said. "We're too small for that."
Holl said one of the hardest concepts to grasp was filling the correct lanes while making the transition from defense to offense, almost how a hockey team's forwards enter the offensive zone.
Giannotta also would like to see the Raiders pay more attention to defense and cut down on the 55.2 points allowed per game.
"We're playing faster on offense, which is more conducive to us as basketball players," said Giannotta, who won his 300th game Dec. 13. "We still have to buy into playing some defense."
Senior forward Mike Smith is averaging 10.0 points and leads the team at 7.1 rebounds.
Junior swingman Dakota Topf is putting up 10.4 points per game and shooting a team-best 76.4 percent from the free-throw line. Darby leads with 7.0 assists per game.
With a section that includes No. 1 Hampton, No. 2 New Castle and North Allegheny, Seneca Valley is hoping it can use the offense to improve upon last year's appearance in the WPIAL semifinals and PIAA playoffs.
"Last year, we could slow it down and get it into the paint," Holl said. "Now we want to push it up the floor because we don't have the size we had last year. We had to play to our strengths."

Heroic deeds follow fear and loathing
We don't like to think of ourselves as bullies, but the pile-on demolition of Belinda Neal in recent weeks shows that the mob will always find a victim.
And as long as it fits into the narrative of Evil Belinda, evidence is unnecessary. Every rumour gets an airing, anonymous colleagues traduce her, cartoonists unleash the vilest misogyny, soccer rivals distort her on-field behaviour and cameras feast on her lonely, stricken figure in Parliament. When it comes to the MP everyone loves to hate, the mob has given itself permission to wound.
Why, then, in a schoolyard far from Canberra, should we be surprised when a vulnerable 12-year-old boy suffers bullying so sustained and so debilitating, it makes him vomit and contemplate suicide?
Elijah Vetma, a year 7 student of Bellarine Secondary College in Victoria, has Asperger syndrome, a mild form of autism seen most often in boys with normal intelligence. They present as socially inept, absent-minded and slightly clumsy "little professors". They are unable to read social cues and tend to take language literally, so that phrases such as "pull your socks up" and "elbow grease" confound them. But they can also be brilliant, with speculation Michelangelo and Einstein were "aspies".
All his eccentricities have made Elijah, a sweet, sensitive boy, the perfect victim of bullies. At lunchtime he walks around by himself, lonely and desperate for a friend.
But this month, after a particularly gruelling day, he sat down and wrote a letter to his local newspaper, the Geelong Advertiser, to "help people understand how I and other people with disabilities feel about being bullied".
"For over four years I have had to put up with being bullied and teased and hated by everyone in the school. I've been called all sorts of names like germ boy, gay and retard Kids don't let me join their groups when we had to do team activities I try really hard to make friends but the people that make fun of me turn them against me. I don't know why they do this - maybe to be popular Just because I have a disability I still have the same feelings of wanting to belong, to have friends, and be liked. I have feelings of sadness, anger, and confusion inside, being alone and hated Each morning before I go to school I think of what's going to happen today. Nothing I have tried to do has stopped it."
His mother, Jan, says that when Elijah gets on the school bus each day: "I see him as a soldier going into the battlefield, who doesn't know if he's going to have his leg blown off today Kids can be cruel."
Since the letter was published two weeks ago, school has become a little easier. "The kids aren't picking on him, and some are saying hello," Jan says. "Nothing so drastic as dragging him out and saying 'Be my buddy', but it's a start." He also has a safe room in which to play chess or read.
Elijah has been inundated with letters from well-wishers around the world, too.
Jan and Elijah's father, Mick, who has bipolar disorder, don't blame the school, which has a strong anti-bullying policy: "They're trying but there's only so much they can do It's more about kids and how society does not understand people with disabilities."
Those misunderstandings were highlighted last week when The Footy Show host Paul "Fatty" Vautin described a disabled security guard as "blind" drunk. Vautin, who has a brother with Down syndrome (who coincidentally died this week) has since apologised, saying he did not realise Greg Stacey was disabled. But such misapprehensions are common for people with non-physical, "hidden" disabilities. In this case, Stacey suffers a form of epilepsy that makes his speech slurred.
In Elijah's case, his disorders make him appear weird, self-absorbed and sometimes needlessly hostile, not a recipe to win the friends he longs for.
"Children like Elijah can learn techniques to reduce their vulnerability," Professor Ken Rigby, a bullying expert at the University of South Australia, says.
But most anti-bullying strategies in schools are unsuccessful because most bullying goes on in the company of peers, unseen by teachers.
"No school has really got on top of this," Rigby said this week. His research shows that by the age of 14 at least half of children surveyed say that telling a teacher about bullying didn't help and about 10 per cent said it made the bullying worse.
The most effective strategy he has found is to change the behaviour of "bystanders" - the majority of children who see bullying but do nothing.
In a paper entitled "Playground Heroes" that he co-wrote last year for the American journal Greater Good, Rigby says: "School bullies glory in the presence of an audience The few who may object are in a small minority."
But when those few do object, a remarkable thing happens: "Bystander objections effectively discourage bullying at least half the time."
Rigby performed an experiment in which children were shown videos of bullying and asked what they would do. Most said they would help the victim, giving reasons such as bullying is "wrong" or "I am not a mean person". Some felt empathy: "I feel sorry for them and do not want them to get hurt"; some thought they might make a new friend. Others thought they would be admired: "I could become a hero!"
However, those good intentions are translated rarely to real life, especially in high school. By upper primary school, parental and teacher influence is almost non-existent, but if children know their peers disapprove of bullying and why they think it should be stopped, "there is a good chance that some of them, especially those 'on the fence' will be influenced" into raising objections.
Of course, Rigby says, promoting bystander intervention is not risk free. "Being a hero can be close to feeling a fool."
Yet, the alternative is that a sweet boy like Elijah has a hellish life and his schoolmates bear the guilt.

McKeesport Good Neighbor Day a success despite weather woes
A few raindrops couldn't keep residents of McKeesport away from the city's 51st annual Good Neighbor Day.
Postponed a week because of rain, the weather was still uncooperative for Good Neighbor Day on Thursday, but didn't dampen the fun.
Patrons, under the shelter of umbrellas, browsed booths filled with food, games and information along Fifth Avenue.
"Unfortunately what we thought was going to happen last week happened this week," McKeesport recreation director Jim Brown said. "It's just rain though, not storms. We had some cancellations because some people couldn't make it to the new week but we're making the best of it and still having fun."
Wet conditions didn't stop the Mitchell family of McKeesport from hitting the streets.
"We're having fun and enjoying the day," Stanley Mitchell said. "It's always great to come down to the community day."
His wife, Renea, said the family was going to enjoy the day, despite the weather.
"We've been bringing our kids Lavelle and Jazmine down here since they were little. The rain doesn't bother us."
Linda Ross brought her niece, Eliza Waters, 6, to the fair.
"We were already out anyway and we decided to stop over. She's having a good time," Ross said.
Eliza said she enjoyed the fish pond game the most because it was a lot of fun.
McKeesport Area School District sponsored a booth to provide information about school attendance to members of the community. McKeesport Elementary Math Coordinator Jenn Knight played a math game with children who stopped by.
"We've had lots of kids come up to our booth today, and not just kids from McKeesport," said Amy O'Grady, a fifth-grade teacher at Twin Rivers Primary/Intermediate School. "We've had kids from Elizabeth Forward, South Park and West Jefferson Hills. We've drawn in a lot of kids from different communities."
Monica Hancharik and her grandson, Peyton, showed that workers could enjoy the day, too.
"I'm running the McKeesport First Steps Parenting booth. We're working today but we're also enjoying the food and he's enjoying the games," she said.
McKeesport Fair Housing Officer Angelia Christina and volunteer JoEllen Kenney were happy to be working at a booth dedicated to getting public input about the McKeesport comprehensive plan and spreading the McKeesport message. They ran a fish pond game for the children, too.
"The rain isn't bothering us any, the kids can fish in the rain," Kenney said.
Christina was excited to spread the city's motto.
"The McKeesport message is Respect, Hope, Dignity and Love," she said. "Look around at the community day. That's exactly what we're trying to show here."

Eminem's 8th Studio Album Due in 2013
Shady Records President Paul Rosenburg confirmed to Billboard.com this week that Eminem is "far into the process" of recording his untitled eighth studio album. He also noted "We fully expect to be releasing a new Eminem album in 2013. He's been working on it for some time. It's safe to say that it will be post-Memorial Day at some point, but we're not exactly sure when. We've got some dates locked in for him to perform live in Europe in August, so we're trying to see what else lines up."
Paul and Shady have a lot on deck in 2013 with Yelawolf's sophomore album and 50 Cent's "Street King Immortal", both expected to be out in the first half of this year, so lets hope everything lives up to expectations!

HEART Success Story- Raveena - Daddy's Little Girl
Raveena - A young girl finds a way to mourn her father's passing with Save the Children's HEART program
Raveena sat, alone and quiet, in the corner of her pre-school class looking forlorn. She loved music but the voices of her classmates rising in the air as they reveled in the new songs they were learning did not move her. Instead, she folded herself onto the floor and drew another crayon picture. When she finished, she stacked it on top of all the others she had piled throughout the school day. These days, it was all she could muster to do at Save the Children's Shree Bhagwati Early Childhood Development (ECD) Center near her home in Baglung, Nepal.
Neither the teacher nor her mother quite understood the depth of Raveena's dejected state. Her father, a blacksmith, had died one day on his way to work months ago, leaving her mother to fend for 11 children of which Raveena was the youngest. For a few weeks after his death, she stopped going to the center and instead stayed home shedding tears with her mother. Then, her mother decided it was time for her to go back. "I assumed she was far too young to understand the finality of what had happened and would benefit from being with her classmates,"said Patali BK", Raveena's mother.
But back in school, Raveena was no longer the happy child she had been, always eager to learn and participate in class and friendly with all the children. Instead, she hid behind her drawings.
"I used to ask her: Why don't you play with other children? Why don't you dance and sing? Why are you so quiet?"explained Saraswati Ghimire, the Early Childhood Development facilitator at the school."
The answers, she came to understand, were in the drawings. The drawings spoke of despair so deep it surprised both Raveena's teacher and mother.
Raveena drew pictures of moments her mother thought she had not understood and, therefore, could not have been affected by. The images, Raveena explained, were of her father's body being cremated in a ball of fire by the river with her mother standing nearby weeping. Others showed her father being transported to the hospital in a jeep and of his body being carried by relatives to the fire.
Raveena drew these same images over again as she tried to grasp their meaning. She was, after all, the youngest in the family, the one her father had doted on. His death meant a loss of this special bond – a loss of her special place as daddy's little girl.
"Without Raveena's drawings, I would never have been able to understand her,"explains Saraswati who trained in Save the Children's Healing and Education through the Arts (HEART) program, introduced to the school two years earlier. "It helped me understand her better and how to help her. From then on, I just let her draw. I did not force her to participate in other activities of the center. She would even ask for crayons and papers to take back home."
Drawing in the HEART program is not just an art project. It is a means by which children can express their fears and dreams while also learning the early steps of writing. Saraswati points out: "Instead of asking them what they are feeling and expecting an answer from them, drawing helps them express easily."
Saraswati added, "Children also learn to hold the crayons, make various shapes and lines which lay a foundation for them to write their first alphabets. And children love colors. The Early Childhood Development center helps children prepare for school and HEART is supporting this process."
For Raveena whose passion for drawing spills onto any piece of paper she finds and even onto her front yard where she often sketches with coal, HEART was the perfect means to express her voice in a safe place. "I kept encouraging her to draw and tell the stories of what she drew until one day she stopped drawing about her father's death,"Saraswati said. "When you give her crayons and papers, she forgets there is anything else."
Raveena's old self reemerged with time. She began singing and dancing with her friends and followed class lessons well. Her teachers did notice one change. Before her father's death, she drew animals, birds, and flowers. Now she was sketching people. "She has started drawing happy faces of her siblings and friends,"remarked Saraswati.
Today, Raveena still remembers her father but cries less. She recently graduated from preschool and has started first grade. Her mother Patali attributes this to experience which grounded Raveena in a desire to learn in a safe environment.
About Save the Children's HEART Program
In order to encourage children to express their feelings and imagination through art, Save the Children incorporated the Healing and Education through the Arts (HEART) program into the Early Childhood Development (ECD) curriculum. ECD facilitators who are trained in HEART encouraged children to draw and interpret their drawings. HEART, Save the Children's visionary education program, brings the proven power of artistic expression to children in need around the world, helping them cope with traumatic events and learn the critical skills they need to reach their true potential. HEART changes children's lives.
Save the Children Nepal introduced the HEART program in June, 2010 in partnership with local non-government organizations. More than 1000 children like Raveena from 57 preschools in Baglung and Kapilvastu districts in Nepal are benefitting from the HEART program today. This year, the HEART program will expand to preschools in two new districts – Nawalparasi and Pyuthan.

Mountaineer high on beating life's troughs
Page Tools
Warren MacDonald says public speaking was more terrifying at first than scaling peaks.
Photo: Supplied
Becoming an amputee hasn't fazed this keen climber, writes Rachel Wells.
In April 1997, Melbourne mountain climber Warren MacDonald was climbing on Hinchinbrook Island, Queensland, when a one-tonne slab of rock sheared off the mountain, crushing and trapping him for two days and nights while a friend went for help.
When he was rescued, after 48 hours battling tropical rain, rising water, fear, pain and ants stinging his body, MacDonald was told he would lose both legs. "I was devastated, but at the same time I just wanted the doctors to keep me alive," he said last week.
Since then, he has climbed Tasmania's Cradle Mountain and the notoriously difficult Federation Peak, and in 2003 became the first double above-knee amputee to reach the summit of Africa's tallest mountain, the 5894-metre Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania.
Using purpose-built prosthetics and accompanied by a support crew that included a local farmer born without arms, MacDonald reached the peak on February 9, 2003, a week ahead of schedule. "I felt a huge sense of relief, as well as a tremendous satisfaction that I'd set a seemingly impossible goal . . . and turned it into a reality," said MacDonald, who has just returned from a cruise and research trip to Antarctica, where he's planning a climb later this year.
MacDonald now lives in Vancouver, where he works as a climbing instructor, and travels the world sharing his story with others. He has returned to Australia for a nation-wide lecture series, starting tonight in Melbourne.
MacDonald doesn't see himself as a hero and claims he simply made a decision to make the most of his situation. And while he says he never set out to inspire others, he's thankful people can take inspiration from his story. "At times I think we tend to make things more complicated than they are. To me it was simple; I only had two choices. I took one look down into that deep, dark hole and decided I wasn't spending my life down there.
"Sure, I went down there - I'm not going to say I didn't get depressed, but I didn't stay depressed. There's too much living to do, and I wanted to know what the boundaries would be for me without legs."
Since climbing out of that dark hole, it seems MacDonald has transcended most boundaries before him, although he admits that scaling a mountain on prosthetics was less daunting than public speaking.
"I love setting new challenges, but not all of those challenges are in the mountains," he says. "Getting up on stage in front of an audience was a huge challenge for someone who'd never done that before . . . I think the only way we really grow is by challenging ourselves, and I just want to be the best I can be."
MacDonald's book, A Test of Will, is now available.

In a pair of moves Monday, the Atlanta Braves re-called outfielder Jose Constanza and optioned reliever Anthony Varvaro to Triple-A Gwinnett, Dave O'Brien reports.
With a healthy Jonny Venters back in the bullpen and Matt Diaz on the DL with a potentially season-ending injury, the Braves opted for more depth on the bench after a strong comeback outing by Venters.
Constanza has been red hot recently and had a 22-game hit streak snapped last week. He has hit .324 with a .386 on-base percentage and 11 stolen bases in 71 games at Gwinnett. This will be his second stint with Atlanta this year.
"He was swinging it pretty good down there," Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said. "He gives us a chance to defend, if we want to, late in the game. Say you don't want to run [Eric] Hinske out there [in the outfield]. He can pinch-run off the bench."
In 12 appearances this season, Varvaro had compiled a 5.40 ERA in 16 2/3 innings.Tags: Anthony Varvaro, Atlanta, Atlanta Braves, Fredi Gonzalez, Jose Constanza, MLB

text: Anyone playing this? It's come a long way from the beta and it's actually quite nice to see a game grow in character over the past 6 months especially when it had a lot to prove. The campaign is actually quite enjoyable albeit without some direction at times. Looks like Stardock have made up for the disaster that was WoM.

ABBEY Meads put a spate of injuries and absentees to one side to battle to a 28-11 victory over Thames A.
They needed the help of both Liz Cuff and Jacqui Mellows who were drafted in to help, and the pair put in solid performances at goalkeeper and goal attack as Abbey claimed victory.
The first half was an even affair which could have gone either way, and Abbey Meads lost another vital player as centre Susan Maggs went down with an ankle injury, but she was replaced well by Nicola Yound with good support from Lucy Roe who went on to win the player of the match award.
Shannon Hewes came on at wing attack and kept supplying Georgie Brain and Nicola Gillhespy with chances to keep the scoreboard ticking over as Abbey Meads secured victory.

1 suspect in Denmark terror case released, 3 held (AP) Associated Press) By JAN M. OLSEN COPENHAGEN, Denmark 12/30/10 9:16 AM)
Source: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/12/30/AR2010123000338.html
AP} ASSOCIATED PRESS Articles-Index-Top
COPENHAGEN, Denmark -- An Iraqi asylum seeker accused of plotting a shooting attack on the Copenhagen office of a newspaper that published cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad was freed Thursday due to an apparent lack of evidence.
Three other suspects, residents in Sweden, were ordered to remain in custody for four weeks by a Danish court.
The four men were arrested in the Danish capital on Wednesday, while police in Stockholm arrested a Swedish citizen of Tunisian origin, suspected of being linked to the plot.
Danish and Swedish police said the group, which they had been observing for months, planned a shooting spree in the building where the Jyllands-Posten newspaper has its Copenhagen newsdesk.
Jakob Scharf, head of the Danish Security and Intelligence Service Scharf, described some of the suspects as "militant Islamists with relations to international terror networks." He said more arrests were possible.
Scharf said the assault was to have been carried out before this weekend, and could have been similar in strategy to the 2008 terrorist attack in Mumbai, India, that left 166 people dead
The latest arrests brought renewed attention to simmering anger at the newspaper, which has been the target of several attacks and threats since publishing 12 cartoons of Muhammad in 2005.
The right-leaning daily, one of Denmark´s largest, had asked Danish cartoonists to draw the prophet as a challenge to self-censorship after the author of a children´s book on religion said its illustrator demanded anonymity because he feared retaliation for a picture of the prophet.
Islamic law generally opposes any depiction of the prophet, even favorable ones, for fear it could lead to idolatry.
Kurt Westergaard, the artist who drew the most controversial of the cartoons - the prophet wearing a bomb-shaped turban - has also been attacked and threatened.
The cartoons turned this small Scandinavian nation into a target of Islamist groups seeking to carry out terror attacks and prompted violent anti-Danish protests in Muslim countries in 2006.
Under a court order, none of the suspects held in Denmark can be named. Police said they were Swedish residents - a 44-year-old Tunisian, a 29-year-old Lebanese-born man and a 30-year-old whose national origin was not released.
The men face preliminary charges of attempting to carry out an act of terrorism and possession of illegal weapons. The men pleaded not guilty and refused to speak in the closed-door hearing at the Glostrup City Court in the Danish capital.
Preliminary charges are a step short of formal charges, but if they are formally filed and they are convicted they could face life sentences.
A Danish intelligence official said the released Iraqi man remains a suspect but gave no other details and spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the press.
The Jyllands-Posten newspaper is part a media group that also includes two of Denmark´s biggest dailies, Politiken and tabloid Ekstra Bladet, a photo agency, three publishing houses and a bookstore.
Its Copenhagen newsroom is in a media group building that is protected by metal fences and guards at all entrances. Mail is scanned and newspaper staff need identity cards to enter the buildings and the various floors. Similar protection has been set up at its headquarters in another city.
As a consequence of the threats, cartoonist Westergaard and paper´s former culture editor Flemming Rose, who was in charge of the cartoon publication, have round-the-clock bodyguards and are transported in armored vehicles.
The Iraqi suspect´s younger brother said he had been released and was at home with his parents.
"My brother is innocent. He is being called a terrorist because he is a devout Muslim," Farooq Muhammed Salman told the AP. "I know that my brother has nothing to do with this."
Salman said his brother, who suffers from various ailments, rarely leaves the apartment where he lives with his parents.
Officials said the men arrived by car in Denmark late Tuesday or early Wednesday from Stockholm. Police, who had been watching the group´s movements for two months, followed the vehicle and arrested them Wednesday as they left an apartment in a Copenhagen suburb.
Police didn´t visibly increase patrolling on the streets of Copenhagen.
"We have found no reason to change anything in relation to our preparedness," Copenhagen police spokesman Rasmus Skovsgaard told the AP. (© 2010 The Associated Press 12/30/10)
