Mock drill at HCTC tests preparedness at college
by Cris Ritchie
HAZARD – Often times in a disaster, half the battle is simply knowing what to do.
It was under this premise that Hazard Community and Technical College and the Hazard Police Department staged a mock shooting at the college on Wednesday.
The scenario involved a simulated shooter entering the school, shooting several students and attempting to enter classrooms until police arrived. It took HPD officers roughly a minute to apprehend the shooter once they arrived on the scene.
For the college, Wednesday's exercise was part of an ongoing evaluation by the school's crisis management team, noted Evelyn Wood, communications director for HCTC. In this instance, the team was looking to determine the school's level of preparedness in the event of an emergency situation.
In the moments after the drill concluded, Wood said it seemed that the school's response was adequate in that the shooter was unable to enter any classrooms and the facility went on lockdown until the all clear was given.
"From that standpoint, this was a success," Wood said.
Hazard Police Chief Minor Allen said the department has conducted similar drills at the high school and middle school over the past year in order to gauge not only the department's response time and level of preparedness, and also how students and staff at the schools responded.
"You can't plan for everything, but it's better than not planning at all for it," he said.

According to RealGM, we've signed James Southerland. I think he was previously just invited to camp. I'm not too big on this signing since it limits what we can do in trades... no need to fully pack the roster.

Who dat? Seriously who da fuq is he?
"What's the purpose of your baby curls?"- Reggie Williams
Cho knows. Cho knows.
To be honest Southerland is just like our 2013 second round pick. He was projected to be drafted by DX and I always like having a second rounder no hoper on the roster, they have absolutely no expectation and if they do anything good it is always an unexpected surprise.
Here is the release from the Bobcats: http://www.nba.com/bobcats/news/bobc...es-southerland They have used "Paint" to black out the other team's logo and number on the picture.... So amateurish

Year 2012
Cross-border cooperation between Finland and Russia will be focused on EU programmes
Future neighbouring area cooperation between Finland and Russia will be more closely connected to the EU's cross-border cooperation programmes, which will also be the main source of funding for cooperation. This policy outline is included in the new framework agreement for cross-border cooperation, concluded between Finland and Russia.
Jouni Hakala, Secretary of State to the Ministry of Employment and the Economy, and Maxim Travnikov, Deputy Minister of the Ministry for Regional Development of the Russian Federation, signed the agreement on 13 April 2012 in Helsinki.
Aimed at promoting regional development on both sides of the border, the framework agreement supports the implementation of the EU's ENPI CBC (European Neighbourhood and Partnership Instrument, Cross-Border Cooperation) programmes across the Finnish and Russian border.
New funding mechanisms will not be created through the agreement. Sources of funding will include the ENPI CBC programmes and other possible EU sources, funding from international financing institutions and budget funding from central and regional government.
In 2007–2013, Finland's cooperation with Russia has been implemented through three programmes, the Kolarctic, Karelia, and South-East Finland – Russia ENPI CBC programmes. Total funding for these programmes amounts to around 190 million euros, with the EU, Finland and Russia contributing to the funding. For the Kolarctic programme, funding also comes from Sweden and Norway. The framework agreement is intended to create a favourable environment for activities in the coming funding period 2014–2020 for the EU's ENPI CBC programmes.
The new framework agreement replaces the Agreement between Finland and Russia on Cooperation in Murmansk Region, the Republic of Karelia, Saint-Petersburg and Leningrad Region, dating from 1992.

Gene Norman on Duke Ellington
I know Gene Norman's voice best from his introduction of Max Roach and Clifford Brown at a Gene Norman Presents (GNP) concert in Hollywood in 1954. Norman was out front in presenting Max and Brownie's original quintet with Teddy Edwards in April of that year, then in August he presented them at the Shrine Auditorium. I recall Gene intoning, "We very proudly present the Max Roach All-Stars with Clifford Brown," as readily as I do Max's "interpretation" of "Jordu."
Here's a tuxedoed Norman 45 years later addressing a Duke Ellington Centennial conference. The voice may be familiar, but the perspective is fresh. Norman, who became "transfixed" by Duke's music as a nine-year-old, produced Ellington concerts over a 16-year period. His first impression of Duke was of a man in top hat and tails, but he got to know him in his backstage attire of "bathrobe and stocking cap," tirelessly and "compulsively" at work on new tunes.
Conjecture abounds over how slyly Ellington may have lifted ideas and melodic fragments from his sidemen for use in his songs and compositions, over 1000 in number. Norman provides an example here of how a counter-melody that Johnny Hodges played on "Once in a While" grew to become "I Let a Song Go Out of My Heart." But to those who smugly dispute Ellington's originality, Norman counters with, "Talent borrows from others, but genius borrows only from itself," and notes how magnanimous it was for Duke to use Billy Strayhorn's "Take the A Train" as his theme song for over 33 years.
Norman names Oscar Wilde, Gustav Mahler, George Gershwin, and Ellington as his heroes, but Duke was the only one he got to know. As you'll see in this ten minute address, he's still imbued with love for the man he describes as "super civilized."
Here's Gene Norman's hero with a nicely-filmed rendition of "Take the A Train.."

Choosing a Major
Selection of a major determines the course of study you will follow throughout your academic career.
As a First Year student, you may be interested in a variety of majors and careers, or you may have no specific areas of interest at this time. However, you are encouraged to select the major in which you are most interested at this time. By indicating your current area of interest, we can place you in courses that will apply both to your major and to our Liberal Studies requirements.
You will be assigned to an academic adviser in the major you indicate. He or she will advise you with regard to course selection and other information about the major. This is the person who will help you schedule classes for the Spring semester.
We realize you may decide to change your mind later, but this will provide the opportunity for you to make an informed decision and work with a professional in the field you choose now. The courses you take in your first semester will count toward graduation even if you change your major later. It is not unusual for students to change their major as they become more familiar with other disciplines.
The majors which are available at Westminster are listed on the next page. Enter your choice on the Student information sheet.
Note: Students with interest in biology, chemistry, computer science, mathematics, music, physics, or psychology should begin sequences of courses required for their major in the first semester of the first year. It is especially important to indicate your interest in these areas so we can plan your schedule accordingly. Even if you change your mind later, the courses you take will count toward graduation.
Exploratory (undecided) majors:
If you are considering several majors, please indicate your interests in the comment area. If you do not have a specific area of interest right now, don't worry--you are not alone! You may elect to be an Exploratory student. This will give you additional time to make this important decision.

Great race. This was my first trail marathon and it was difficult - muddy trails, rocks, logs, and of course hills. But the organization, aid station voulenteers and other runners made this race a blast! Trails were rocky and there were plenty of logs and small streams to jump over. Aid stations had some nice treats - one had fresh strawberries, they were so good I thought I was going to turn around to get more. Post race food was great and just real good bunch of runners to spend a day with!
This was a hard trail race, as warned. Of 60+ marathons, my slowest time ever. The organization was fantastic! Race director Clint send out informational e-mails ahead of time, was quick to respond to questions, and went over everything race morning as well. The other runners were friendly and supportive. I've never seen better aid station volunteers; they were just fantastic. I recommend the Ashford Motel if you're coming from out of town. The staff there is very friendly and rooms have refrigerator and microwave.
Race is low-budget. Course is out in the woods, so don't expect any spectators. They put a "high fall risk" sticker on my bib, because I was a first-timer. I felt special. Lots of cuts and bruises. Course is boulders, rocks, tree branches, leaves, a few roots, and some dirt thrown in for variety. North is uphill; south is downhill. Aid stations are relatively well stocked with a variety of things. Bring your own water. Crosses one major highway; they have crossing flags and cones but the drivers do not slow down. Look at the carving in the stairs at the northern turnaround point. Finisher's award was hand-crafted and to me that's extra-valuable. Great sense of camaraderie among the runners, some of whom have run this for years. New race director in 2011.
Last year I ran Nipmuck for the first time. Very humid. Thought I might enjoy the course under better conditions so I returned this year. Low humidity was most appreciated. The rocky course still tripped up my pace but not for as long as last year. Plenty of water and aid stops on the course. Never more than 3 miles between refills. It was hard to go off-course. Just follow the blue blazes. Somewhere on the second half of the course is a sign that says, "FALLS, 50 feet." Maybe next year I'll take a short detour from the course to see if those falls are worth a look. On course, there are plenty of "falls" to experience.
The course is out and back in two directions. You leave the start and run 6 miles of single track trail to a table and turn around and run back on the same trail. Passing the start at mile 12 you run a tougher 7 miles out turn around and run back. So you get to see all your competition twice. You also can restock your personal fuel when you cross back over the start line. It is a tough, rocky course, where you just have to walk to survive. The second half is tougher than the first half. The course is almost all in the woods, so you don't need sunglasses. I did not notice any bugs as long as I was moving. I ran 3:52 in a road marathon four weeks earlier and ran 5:32 on the NipMuck. By comparison I ran the Otter Creek Trail Marathon last December in mud and pouring rain in 5:48. So the NipMuck, with good conditions, is still a tough course, where you should pick survival over speed. I am glad I ran it and would suggest it to the very adventurous.
The course is very nice - mostly single track, a little muddy since it rained the night before, but fairly runnable. I was scared with the letter and prior comments, but it wasn't that bad. For (somewhat) experienced trail runners - don't worry, it's challenging, but OK. For street marathoners only - unless you are really lucky, plan on few stumbles, falls, slipping, etc. Hey, that's trail running. To quote another runner, this is like a "mini" ultra-marathon, so it would be nice to be used to walking uphill, eating while running, and plenty of fluids in your own carry on bottle. This will really take you 40% more than your regular marathon. I did 4:25 prior weekend at Vermont City and 5:52 at Nipmuck. The weather was terrible for me, with temps in 65-degree range and 90-100% humidity. Stations are well placed. I used lightweight trail shoes and I did not get wet, did not need to stop to remove debris, and did not feel the need for a forefoot protection plate. In conclusion, I think this is an extremely fun and enjoyable race - well enough organized, moderately challenging and, obviously, you can't beat the price....
Great race director, great small race, and fantastic people do this race. I've done 25 marathons and 6 half ironmen, and 1 full IM, and this is the best race. People are laid back, and the course is both mentally and physically demanding, but most importantly, there was not one attitude amongst the spectators and competitors. Everything everyone says below is true - over hills, over huge slippery rocks, exposed roots, streams, Sasquatchesque stairs. But it's all worth it and fantastic! The race director claimed that 2009's race will be by invitation only. I'm glad I did it while I had the chance!
I ran the race this year (2008) for the first time. This was the most awesome, fun, and bad-ass race I have ever done. From the mid-point to the three-quarter mark where you turn around it is almost all uphill. I ran Boston in the 2:40's and it took me in the 3:40's to finish this race!!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Tough course, but not unusually tough by trail race standards. Since it follows a trail that existed before the race did, we can't accuse anybody involved of being deliberately cruel. Just your fair share of mud, and the roots and rocks that make New England trail races so much fun. No heroic climbs except maybe the one complicated by a truly bizarre staircase that looks like it was designed for some other, larger species. The race goes off smoothly, starts on time and doesn't run out of food and drink. Come for the challenge, the spirit, and the satisfaction of finishing a damn tough marathon.
I haven't ever enjoyed a marathon so muchIt's harder than a road race and it takes 40% or so longer. Camaraderie was amazing, the jokes were congenial and weather was nearly perfect - 60, cloudy, low humidity. There were plenty of rocks, roots, and mud, poison ivy; some hills and slippery slopes; and one or two mosquitos. So what? That's what trail running is all about. The best thing about the trails is that you don't get worn out as much. See you on the trails.

I am a frequent presence in the down town street performer scene. I'm gonna remain anonymous due the rediculous sensitivity of the subject. I just wanna say that this is just wrong and a true example of backwards and narrow minded legislation and legality from charleston. 1) The fact that this city is so unforgiving and closed minded towards something that has been and is becoming more and more significant in not only the charleston music & art scene but the tourist scene as well... Is for lack of a better description COMPLETELY ILOGICAL & INEXCUSABLE. There's absolutely no remote good reason (outside of greed & ignorance) that I not only have to pay an ungodly robbery of fees ($100+) for a license that's so infantisimal that the cops couldn't even tell me how much it costs (by a long shot there guess being "around 10$") when they actually decided to hassle me for no good reason that I could think of or that could be given. 2)I didn't come out and start playing for people just to make some pocket money or supplement my income in any way. In fact when I first started playing out here I quite frequently & respectfully refused tips or donations as I believed it took away from the purity and lagitamacy of my intentions and message which I adimately believe and convey.(peace, love, understanding & the underestimated power of positivity & what I refer to as the will & the way) it wasn't until people were flat out INSISTING I accept there tips that I (after much self control & patience) gave in and started graciously accepting them. 3)I hold myself to very strict professional standards when it comes to my performance. I replace and water down lyrics as well as even song choice in respect to where I am and who I'm playing for. 4)I posses a GOD GIVEN tallent to entertain a very wide variety of people which has been credited by listeners to everything from simply entertain to change someone's initial view of charleston for the better to even keeping someone from "making a very big irreversible mistake." Comparing what I do to operating a business is apples to oranges and frankly insulting. I didn't buy this gift it was given to me to use. No body taught me or persuaded to peruse music. It simply came to me by chance and second nature...this is just scratching the surface of how backwards and ignorant it is for an artist such as myself to have pay so much and pass through an absolutely unreasonable amount of red tape (almost as if the beaurocratic phillistine PRICK who's inflicting these requirements simply doesn't want us out there at all.) meanwhile your run of the mill begger, grifter, con artist & drug junky can freely sit in the same spot with their hand out and a sob story to con people out of there money. I've witnessed this and my response is WTF! Whoever is making the decisions this needs to make like computer and get with the program because this is an absolute sabatoge to the layed back and open atmosphere of charleston which about 9 out of 10 tourists come here for and expect to experience. It doesn't make sense why you can be a strait bum and beg discretely but if your given a gratuity for being good at something you love then your treated as though your some con artist or snake oil salesmen. The fact that this is even being made into an issue the city should address and regulate so much is just fucking WRONG and makes me and MANY others question what exactly are the priorities of our city government, who's really runnin the show and what exactly are their intentions for our great city. As for this musician/victim of backwards beaurocracy I end with this. You will still stop me from doing what I was put here on this earth to do when pry my intstrument from my cold death gripping hands. If that makes me an outlaw then SO be it. Why should I try to appease and comply with laws that are borderline unconstitutional and absolutely unreasonable in so many blaintant ways. Call me what you want "criminal" "vagrant" but the fact is that MANY others would call me a "freedom fighter" and a "true patriot." With that said there are a lot more people (including a significant number of charleston's precious tourists" who are much more inclined to agree with me than the deep pocketed narrow minded philistines who have put me and many other hardworking professional entertainers in the unfortunate position we are in. If any of those people are reading this trust & believe that there is a lot more of us than there are you. We care, we vote, and we are well prepared for revolutionary means to stand up for our rights and ourselves.

If you don't like good beer or family friendly music, this is the event for you!
To be fair, I got to the First Flush a few hours after opening and with a poor attitude. I'd hoped things would get better. Nope. Parking was, of course, as far as you could get from the event; forgiveable, but made worse by a parking attendant who directed us the nearest entrance, only to be turned away to re-trace our steps as it was "reentry only".
Upon entering we were subjected to the worst disappointment: the beer selection. Although the beer was provided by Lee Distributors (maybe the biggest craft beer supplier in town), the selection was limited to light american lagers and RJ Rockers peach beer. No local beers, no craft beers. I felt like I was at Wave-Fest circa 2002. Maybe all the good beer was allocated to Brittlebank park beer fest? $5 for a 16oz miller was expensive but expected (festival draft cups are usually 20oz, with craft beers in 16oz). $8 for a vodka drink (firefly sweet tea conspicuously absent) was just gouging.
The food trucks were great (as always) and there seemed to enough to serve everyone. I particularly enjoyed my Auto-Banh bahn mi.
The grounds are nice, with plenty of shade. There is however, a major bottleneck: a choke point the width of a single sidewalk that separates the entrance, the toilets, and most of the food from the main area. A handful of foot bridges over the ubiquitous ditches would help relieve pedestrian congestion.
My second biggest complaint is the music selection. Not that it was bad, but when Old Crow Medicine Show is headlining, I expect some complimentary music, not the mix of local rock and white-guy reggae/hip hop that dominated the (loud) main stage. None of it was terribly family-friendly. No bluegrass, no americana, no old-timey music was to be heard. Some of the best music could barely be heard, coming from the very quiet second stage.
The other bottleneck becomes apparent when 1000 cars try to leave at the same time: there's only one way out. I don't think it would be asking too much to divert some of those beer profits to building a second exit. We weren't the last cars in, but it took a solid 45 minutes to get to Maybank Hwy at midnight.
I went to First Flush a few years ago when it was a smaller affair. Now that it's grown into it's current incarnation I won't be going back.

Punk is dead.
What is punk? An interesting question that will lead to hours and hours of debate, with the disciples of 80s West Coast Punk-D.C. Punk arguing for ascetic purity and self-flagellation while the lovers of 90s pop punk will argue that it largely comes down to which T-shirts at Hot Topic were the most popular. Nearly all will ignore that 70s punk was motivated more by poverty than anything else while the proto-punk of the late 60s was fueled by drugs and art house-shock theater pretentions; "punk" was not on their minds. Money and fame were.
And just in case anyone has forgotten, the Sex Pistols were a pre-fab band hand-selected by a fashion designer.
green day? really? The Whitney Houston of punk? Who cares, Haire? You wouldn't know punk if it hit you in the head with a dead fish
Wiki sums it up pretty nicely.
"In hip hop's earliest days, the music only existed in live form, and the music was spread via tapes of parties and shows.Hip Hop mixtapes first appeared in the mid-1970s in New York City, featuring artists such as Kool Herc and Afrika Bambaata.[8] As more tapes became available, they began to be collected and traded by fans. In the mid-1980s, DJs, such as Brucie B, began recording their live music and selling their own mixtapes, which was soon followed by other DJs such as Kid Capri and Doo Wop.[8] Ron G moved the mixtape forward in the early 1990s by blending R&B a cappellas with hip hop beats (known as "blends").[8] Blend tapes became increasingly popular by the mid-1990s[citation needed], and fans increasingly looked for exclusive tracks and freestyles on the tapes. Also since the 1990s, it describes releases used to promote one or more new artists, or as a pre-release by more established artists to promote upcoming "official" albums. In the hip hop scene, mix tape is often displayed as a single term mixtape."

SAVE Contractor references
I figured there would be a ton of them on this site but I don't see a lot out there so if you have a contractor that you liked, please post their name, contact information and the size and cost (if you would) of the job.
I am looking for a kitchen renovation that includes, Demo of the cabinets, countertops and backsplash. The appliances are good so they will be removed temporarily and then put back after new cabinets are in. New Floors will be installed, some plumbing and electrical will have to be done first. Water line will go in under the floors, 4-6 new electrical sockets added, cabinets installed, backsplash installed.
I had a contractor do some work 1.5 years ago and he quoted me 15K for the work and I buy all the supplies. I thought that seemed fair. If others have done it for less, please let me know. Also kitchen is 9x12.
15k sounds about right. I would be happy to price it out for you. I can give you plenty of references and you are welcome to come to my projects
You can reach me at 646-436-3942 or email email@example.com
To view my work: www.primerenovationsnyc.com
I had a good contractor do my kitchen, bathroom and floors throughout my apartment. He's a young and very knowledgeable guy. He charged me about $18K for the kitchen but I didn't have to pay for the supplies, the kitchen is 12x7 and it looks beautiful. I would use him again and recommend for any job, his name is Adnan and his email is firstname.lastname@example.com.
Please view our kitchen work here: www.capitalcraftsmen.com/portfolio
I am happy to meet you and give you an estimate. email@example.com
Try Martin Barazorda of JC Martin & Sons (www.jcmartinrenovation.com), he's specific to Manhattan renovation projects and is highly sought after for full gut and kitchen / bath reno projects. His direct number is 347-234-3597, or office is 347-746-8439.
I had an excellent renovation done by DT cabinets. They were very fairly priced. The work was meticulous and they finished 1 week ahead of schedule. They beuilt custom sliding doors and closet doors to my specs.
Peter Demos of Chronos Contracting did a fantastic job renovating my 800 sf prewar one-bedroom apartment: plumbing and electrical work, new kitchen floor/cabinets/tile/countertop, some built-ins, refinished wood floor, reglazed bathtub, repairing and painting plaster walls.
I spoke with several contractors, his price was best and the work is beautiful. He also kept the peace with my building management, which has a lot of rules and keeps very close tabs on projects.

How DT cabinets priced the job for the closets and doors, was it per linear foot ?

ALBANY (AP) -- Gov. Andrew Cuomo is proposing three new casinos in upstate New York in an already crowded Northeast market.
In his State of the State address Wednesday, Cuomo argued that upstate casinos could be a magnet to downstate gamblers who visit casinos in Atlantic City or Connecticut.
Analysts say any new customers would come from either an out-of-state casino or other gambling operations within the state.
New York is already home to five Indian casinos and nine "racinos" that offer video slots but no table games.
The Legislature is expected to consider final passage this year of an amendment to the state constitution that would allow seven casinos beyond Indian land. If approved by lawmakers, voters could make a final decision on the amendment in November.

Eee-Box: Mini Desktop Doubles RAM in its Linux Version
Eee manufacturer Asus has expanded its sub-notebook series with a desktop version. The Eee Box with the Intel Atom processor is available in Linux and Windows XP.
The enclosure, at 8.5" x 7" x 1", is reminiscent of a thin client; Asus calls its mini desktop a "one-liter device."
The Eee Box B202, with an Intel Atom N270 CPU at 1.6 GHz, is available at around $300 for the Windows XP version with 1 GByte RAM and an 80-Gbyte hard drive. The Linux/Easy OS version, for about the same price, has twice the power at 2 Gbyte RAM and a 160-Gbyte drive.
The box weighs 6.6 lbs, comes in black or white, and can be placed on a small stand or tucked behind the monitor. An Intel 945GSE graphics chipset is inside. The device is specified to emit no more than 26 db and comes with 65-Watt power adapter.
Networking is over WLAN 802.11b/g/n and Gigabit Ethernet. Front ports include two USBs and a card reader for countless external formats. Rear ports include a digital video interface, analog and S/PIDF audio line-out, and another two USBs. Keyboard and mouse are optional.
The device is available since July in the US, the European market has to wait until October.
Not wholly true
160GB Hard Drive Installed - yes. 2GB RAM Installed - No
Maybe you strictly-Linux users have to wait longer. -
Not a rumour
Available at various places on-line, e.g.:
http://www.newegg.com/Produ...us+eee+box+linux&x=&y= -
asus eee box
Don't know where you got this info, but Aus shows no such product on their web site nor do any of the retailers shown on the Asus site have this product. Looks like just another rumor. -
Where to get it
We can not recommend a store, but I'd try the ASUS-website and pick a store:
For UK:
If the stores offer only the Windows version, I'd get on their nerves and ask for the Linux version. That's one way to get Linux into their minds, so they'll realize that there are people out there who'd like to have choice.
Hiding the price of the OS
Here we go again. ASUS could cut their inventory of parts, streamlining operations, by using the same configuration for XP as GNU/Linux but they went out of their way to help their buddy hide the price of the OS. -
Where can you buy a linux version???
I would seriously consider buying the device, but after all my searches, the less equipped xp version it the only one for sale. Gimme a link to someone who actually shows and sells (in the US) the linux version.

Toys, Games & Books
Robot toys are usually made of plastic and require batteries - but not this one!
Inspired by the Japanese Shinto Kumi-ki puzzles, the Cubebot by Areaware is a non-traditional take on the toy robot by joining ancient Japanese traditions with contemporary toy culture. Cubebot's powerful hardwood frame can hold many poses, and his elastic-band muscles and durable wood limbs make him impervious to breakage. When it's time for him to rest, he folds into a perfect cube. An enduring classic that will withstand generations of play. Dimensions: 8 inches tall with 10 inch arm span (at play); 2.5 x 2.5 inch cube (at rest).

Chess Players - Overview
The most important part of a chess game are the two players. Players have different styles, opening repertoires and experience. This section will provide information about famous and successfull players and their games. The players were active between around 1850 and today. We will see the development of chess and the sometimes tragic lifes of the great masters.
We will concentrate of these groups of players:
- Chess World Champions
( we start with the first official match between Steinitz and Zukertort and cover all World Champions up to the current World Champion V. Anand. In times where we had title holders from different organizations both players are recorded as World Champion )
( current chess world champion V. Anand in his match with B. Gelfand - Super Grandmasters
( Super Grandmasters are for us players who made it in the Top 20 of their time )
( Super GM Magnus Carlsen, who is currently No.1 of the FIDE rating list ) - Grandmasters
( all players who ever held a FIDE Grandmaster title. Additionally before FIDE Players who managed to get a historical ELO of 2500 or higher)
( German Grandmaster Wolfgang Uhlmann who is an expert of the French Defence )
Where titles were officially not existent at the time, we add the players according to their results in the specific categories.
Of great help was herewith the ChessMetrics site which offers calculations about historical chess ratings.

We'll try hotels international -- a quarterly dividend of eighteen cents a share just two days separating its full year forecast on the heels of a stronger than expected first quarter report.
Joining me now for a box this exclusive interviews CEO president Steve -- and Steve -- to -- you -- -- not your forecast for revenue.
-- -- doesn't need as the number in the hotel industry what -- seen it.
It is the number tells us how about how well we're doing how many customers are coming of the hotels.
And what they're willing to pay -- -- action was a very encouraging quarter looks like things are -- up for the summer.
-- sixty foreign and domestic hotel franchise contracts we -- say about being -- crux of your business is the franchisee.
Over the getting financing the franchisees are getting stronger it is up the case there.
Finally -- -- the first quarter was a really good quarter for us we're up almost 15%.
How -- is a very encouraging sign in the transactions in the hotel market seem to be picking up so it looks like we're finally getting around to positive development environment again.
Let's talk about the customer overall we're looking at your brands but in our viewers probably know this from looking at your stock but.
You know you're the mid tier -- the lower consumer.
From an economic perspective -- -- releasing a lot of -- operating income up 21%.
So it looks like that.
Value leisure traveler is coming back be taken as a positive sign for the overall economy.
Absolutely because that we you know we represented the 99% out there and they are common back their -- us they're gonna travel in big numbers.
They feel good about where the economy's headed and most importantly they feel good about their employment.
Which is our key indicator and so what we're seeing is.
First quarter was a good start but it looks like the years gonna continue to build.
Let me ask you this and I was looking at the net income twenty million dollars -- -- was that was on the basis of the fact -- -- got these travelers coming back at the same time.
You're really excited about expanding in the -- and we had -- CEO Arne Sorenson on a couple of weeks ago same thing he's that I like Latin America like the Caribbean.
Your -- I don't for that market.
Why why Caribbean while -- America why -- Asia right now.
Well I think the biggest issue is right now the Caribbean kind of went through big dip when -- with the recession and everything else.
Now it's clearly coming back it's a value for US travelers.
We have a huge presence the United States which generates a lot of customers.
And our customers are saying they want product in the Caribbean and the ready to travel there that's actually the number one destination.
Today for our customers.
Our -- let me ask you this about about the overall hiring picks from always curious.
If you're going to be hiring expanding because that means it could -- only jobs.
In the US market North American market but also that's a sign of the company's strength today they're going to be hiring for the rest of the year whether it's through the corporate channels or through the franchisees.
Yeah I can -- in our case we're actually hiring at the company because things are up but we're expecting things you grow we're also looking at some new opportunities.
But I can tell in talking with our franchisees.
They're getting their business -- so they're adding people back to their hotels.
To help take care the customers and they're also very positive now about doing new deals.
Which is something that's been warming up -- the last six months but really showed in the numbers in the first quarter.
We'll stay there was a heck of a quarter again the numbers -- beating the street -- investing is great to have you on the show again we'll see in the next quarters to enjoys.
Thank you very much aren't gonna.

Wonderful! Very easy to make. The hardest part was unwrapping the Andes mints. Tastes great. I keep getting requests for this recipe. Tasty and easy! Win-win!
This sounds great to me. I love anything mint. I threw some Andes mints in my chocolate chip cookie dough and they were gobbled up in 2 days.
I'm going to make this with a couple of changes.
I'm going to use the pudding/pie filling you cook for a thicker filling. I'm cutting the candies in half for less sweetness and I'm going to make a Mint Milan o cookie crust.
Thanks for the recipe :)
I have made this Pie every Thanksgiving for the last 2 years and it is always one of the first to be eaten.
This pie is great. All of us love it!!
Thank you for sharing it.
very easy to make a great dessert for St. Patricks Day. We used 1 small box of instant choc pudding and made according to the directions on the package. Crushed the candies pretty finely. The green food coloring was added for st. pat's day. everyone liked it. Didn't have any problems with the pie setting.

My thirteen year old searched and searched the web for the perfect new comforter for her room and this is the one she finally decided on after months and months of reviewing. We got it for her for Christmas and she LOVES it. We were actually kinda nervous because she has a queen size bed and the biggest size is full, but we gambled and went with it anyways and it does fit, not perfectly, but she just has it hanging a little shorter on the side of her bed that no one see and she will not leave her room because she is so happy with it!
I refurnished my daughter's bedroom and this comforter set makes the room "pop". It is cute, trendy and truly fit for a girl who is into fashion. My daughter LOVES it so much so that she keeps her bed made (without being asked). The set included two decorative pillows which made it a great value. I saw this set on other retail websites for 2-3 times more than what I paid at Overstock. This comforter set made (along with the other room decor) made me and my hubby the coolest parents.
My daughter wanted this for her 12th birthday... she couldn't be happier. Wish it came with sheets..
This comforter is very pretty. I love the ruffles and the silver cheetah print. However, the quality could be a little better. The silver cheetah area bunches quite easily but my daughter doesn't seem to be bothered by it. It's very stylish for my 13 year old.
The quality is ok. Felt like a lightweight sleeping bag. I bought the full and used on a full side bed and it was barely big enough to cover the sides of the bed. I loved the color but wished it were bigger so I sent back. Each side did not cover the sheets and definitely did not reach the bed skirt.
Nice comforter set for a teenage girl looking to update her room.
The bed combo is a great value and the material looks & feels beautiful. Great for a young guy irls room.

Bethpage Churches To Conduct Census The community-wide religious census which has been waiting in the wings these past few months will be taken early in 1974. Born of the KEY 73 evanglistic outreach program, it has grown through an intensive planning effort of the clergy in Bethpage, supported by civic and fraternal organizations, to reach 'More in f74.' A series of meetings were held in the past year between clergy and laity of the several Bethpage denominations! Objective, method and, hopefully, problems have been assessed, re-assessed and evaluated to produce a coordinated effort that will climax with a census to be taken the weekends of January 26-27 and February 2-3J Purpose • THe intent of tae cooperating congregations is to determine the religious background,'preference or involvement of the 7900 families in Bethpage. Volunteer census-takers will carry a simple 5-question from. Each householder will be asked: 1.) Are you a member of any local church or synagogue? OYes () No If YES, which? 2.) May we ask whether you attend ( ) regularly, ( ) occasionally or ( ) seldom? 3.) Do the other members of your family attend the same church? ( ) Yes ( ) No If NO, which church? 4.) If you are NOT a member of a local church, what is your denominational background or preference? 5.) May we ask your name? A Gospel selection and a Directory of the Bethpage Churches, listing Services and organizations will also be distributed at this time. Names of those families which express • interest- in church activity or appear to be pruspecis for in- • vbjvehieht in the life of a^ehurch, will be given to the appropiate congregation for follow-up. Our Jewish neighbors will be directed to the Jewish Community Center. Help A Committee of 400 has been set up to make this important program happen. But, as with all committees, Volunteers are still needed. Bellringers...dedicated lay people who will give 6 hrs. on a Saturday and 4 hrs. on a Sunday afternoon. Clerical Volunteers... to help in the important work of mapping the area and consolidating information and others to act as Area Captains. Christ started with only twelve... we mere mortals need at least 12 X 12 to do His work. Information Orientation programs are being scheduled. Your own minister will be able to answer your questions and point you in the right direction. Most important of all, we ask the help of all the residents of our community during these two vital weekends. JBvera if/you can^'tofri the Committee, -vSwRE^Hnw^yMmg recall that other census taken almost 2000 years, ago. Don't turn away our Volunteer-travelers— make room in the Inn of your busy day to spend a few moments with them. Featurette In The PRIME Of Life. BUILDING CODES CHANGE PROPOSED FOR ENERGY CONSERVATION • Assemblyman Stuart R. Levine (R-Bethpage), left is shown prefiling his bill requiring strict insulation standards in the construction of new homes. The bill would call for the installation of a minimum of six inches of insulation in attic floor and three inches insulation in ail outside walls. The measure is designed to conserve substantial quantities of energy resources. Mid-Island Council Senior Scout Linda Pecora presenting Dr. William A. Kinder, Superintendent of Schools. U.F.S.D. No. 22, Farmingdale, with the GS / GS emblem as kickoff of the Girl Scout Energy Conservation Program. Among the more than 250 new students filling Molloy's corridors and classrooms this fall were eighteen of a new breed. Ranging in age from 55 to 70, the new students are not youngsters just graduated from high schools, but their enthusiasm and energy match that of any college students anywhere. The students participated in a unique program, Project PRIME, which began this fall for the first time. PRIME (Persons Renewing Interest in Mankind and Environment) was approved by the College Senate last year and offers courses to persons aged 55 and over for only an administrative charge of $25. The "senior" students may audit the college's regular courses., on a non-credit space-available basis. The PRIME students elected courses from almost every academic field offered at the . College, from foreign languages and accounting to history, English and psychology. Their reasons for continuing their education and their reactions to their new environment are as' ' varied as their academic interests, but there is general agreement on one point: Education is a lifelong endeavor, not just a childhood experience. William Spinnelli, 57, travelled from Uniondale all semester to take two psychology courses at Molloy. Presently a Captain in the New York City Fire Department, Mr. Spinnelli plans to retire in January but continue his new college work. "I really enjoy psychology and the idea of ' learning," he said. "The PRIME program is a great idea. "What's most interesting for me is that I'm learning in reverse," he continued. "As a Captain in the Department, I took several management courses telling me how to work with people. Here, I'm learning why. It's like working from the practical experience to' the theory, instead of the other way." A husband-and-wife team, Anita and Dominic Morano, found Molloy's introductory Spanish course both challenging and rewarding. "We never had the time to take formal courses in foreign languages," said the Morano's, "and now that we have the time, the expense of taking.;* regular college course J!*Ytoo great. That's why we like the PRIME program so much." , Residents of East Meadow, Mr. and Mrs. Morano spent six hours each week in class, and another five hours in the language laboratory. Although the PRIME students are not required to take tests and examinations, most, including the Morano's do all the work that is required of other students. "We study from two to four hours each night," said Mrs. Morano. "How would we know how we're doing if we didn't take the tests?" According to the instructors who have PRIME students in their classes, the "mature" pupils are highly motivated and truly dedicated to their work. Teachers praise them for their active and sensible class participation, noting that younger students cheerfully welcome their insights and practical application of what is learned in the classroom. The PRIME students are equally enthusiastic about the quality of the education they receive under the new program. Mrs. Mary Allin of Valley Stream, who is taking courses in political science, religious studies, and psychology, noted that the PRIME students receive the same attention as the other students. "I find it both comfortable and stimulating here, "Mrs. Allin said. "Life could be very dull if everyone stayed home and watched television every day. It certainly isn't dull here-I get a great deal of satisfaction from the courses I'm taking." John J. Dolan, a New Hyde Park resident, who holds a Bachelor of Science degree, studied "Readings in James Joyce" as his PRIME interest. "I'm really, enjoying it here at Molloy," saisi the New Hyde Park resident. "I've been wishing for an opportunity >ikt> ihis for a long time." Like many of the PRIME students. Mr. Dolan noted the stimulating atmosphere and' the friendly students and faculty which made his" new college experience a pleasant one. Sister Marlene Halpin. O.P., (Continued on Page 6)

I got it because I have to walk my dog out in the nastiest of Minnesota weather and needed to be as warm and comfortable. The hat would have been more comfortable, I think, without the Brim. It didn't like that I wore glasses and therefore it was more uncomfortable. I'm looking to give it away.

Dedicated by the Jacobs and Chill Families in Memory of Harold and Pearl JacobsDora Bas Rivka Silver O'H
Bow and Arrow on Lag B'Omer
Rabbi Dr. Asher Meir
Rav Menachem Mendel of Rimanov, one of the early Hasidic Rebbes, explained that the custom is based on the Midrash which states that all the days of Rebbe Shimon bar Yochai, the rainbow didn't appear in the sky. (Ketubot 77b the same is said there of Rebbe Yehoshua ben Levi.) Rashi explains that the rainbow is the sign of the covenant that the world will not be destroyed, and if there is a perfect tzaddik in the world there is no need of such a sign. (Cited by B'nei Yissachar on Lag BaOmer.)
The somewhat surprising connection between the rainbow and an ordinary bow is made by the Ramban's commentary on the Torah. He explains that the rainbow is a sign of peace because it shows a weapon, the bow, in a harmless state pointing away from the earth and with no bowstring (Bereshit 9:12). But now the symbolism seems confused in the time of Rebbe Shimon the world was not even in need of the rainbow, depicting a harmless bow; yet today we commemorate this period by shooting with an actual bow and arrow!
One explanation is that in the time of Rebbe Shimon, the utter holiness and abstinence he displayed were a realistic aspiration for the many. Not only Rebbe Shimon, but also his students were so absorbed in Torah that they were exempt from prayers (SA OC 106:2). And Rebbe Shimon asserted that every person should refrain from worldly pursuits, while later Sages concluded that this path was appropriate only for the few (Berakhot 35b, according to Maharsha).
Since Rebbe Shimon's passing, we don't have a perfect model of total devotion to Torah study among us. We have no choice but to serve HaShem in other ways, including via prayer and occupation with worldly affairs. We show this on Lag BaOmer by a worldly pursuit which exemplifies this contrast using bow and arrow.
Here is an alternative explanation. Rashi explains that Yaakov Avinu refers to a bow as a metaphor for prayer (Bereshit 48:22). This is based on the fact that Esav sought favor with Yitzchak with bow and arrow and was blessed by him with weapons of war (Bereshit 27:3, 27:40), whereas Yaakov's tool is his voice which he uses in prayer (27:22). There is also a play on words because "bekashti", "with my bow", can be read "bakashati", my prayer. (See Maharsha and Iyun Yaakov on Bava Batra 123a.) Of course it is also an appropriate metaphor because a prayer which is uttered with careful kavana (inention) can have far reaching effects, just like an arrow sent from a bow with precise kavana (aim).
All the time of Rebbe Shimon, there was no rainbow in the sky hinting at the fact that his Torah study was so encompassing that it transcended the need for prayer, the "bow" of Israel. But today there is no one at that level, as the Shulchan Arukh states (OC 106:2). The message of the remarkable Lag BeOmer custom is that nowadays we have to leave the Beit Midrash and pick up bow and arrow, that is, interrupt our Torah study to pray.
