T. im Thursday, May 15, 1969 See Page 3 LIBRARY- SCHOOL BOARD CASE GETS ALBANY AIRING Propose Postal Rate Hike Begin Work Incentive Program Dr. Charles W. Laffin. Jr., President of State University at Farmingdale announced that a new program, the Employability Orientation Phase of WIN. th* » Work Incentive Program foi Suffolk County, is now taking place on the college campus. The goal of the program, a federally financed program under the Department of Labor, is to move men. women and out-of- school youths. 16 or older, off Ihe welfare rolls and into productive employment. It includes testing and counseling, adull education, on- the- job training and other training, and placement in regular employment. As an incentive, when the enrollee is employed, he receives Ihe amount of his welfare grant plus $ 30.00 of his monthly wages plus one third of the remainder of his wages. A variety of State and local agencies work together, including the County Department of Social Services, which refers clients, and the State Employment Service, which coordinates the training and placement activities. The Employability Orientation Phase being operated by the State University at Farmingdale is an early step and involves the students five days a week for two weeks, in small groups. It is aimed at the development of realistic goals, motivation, and desirable work attitudes, as well as the acquisition of basic knowledge about the world of work - how to find and keep a job; how to dress and how to manage home and job. In addition to meeting on the campus, field trips, guest speakers, films, and other techniques will be included. The present first phase of the important project is funded through June 27th at Farmingdale. A postal deficit of $ 1.2 billion is responsible for the proposals to raise the postage bill. Farmingdale Postmaster Leo J. Morgan said he had been advised by Postmaster General Winton M Blount that the record $ 1.2 billion 1970 deficit compelled President Nixon to seek postage rate increases. Without higher rates the Department will be left with a deficit that would become an added public tax burden. In addition to increasing letter mail from six to seven cents, as proposed by the Johnson Administration. President Nixon also asked that second and third-class mailers help reduce the large postal deficit which would otherwise be paid by taxpayers. For bulk third- class mail and most magazines and newspapers, the rates would be increased 16 percent to 20 percent above today's levels,. These percentages include rate hikes already scheduled by previous action of Congress. Letters and post cards would be increased one cent, to seven cents an ounce and six cents a piece, ' respectively, on July 1, 1969. Airmail postage would remain at ten cents. For second class mail, handling charge of 3/ 10ths ot a cent per piece for circulation outside home counties would become effective July 1, 1970. For single pieces of third class mail, rates would be increased one cent per piece. This would yield $ 12.4 million. For regular bulk third- class, the minimum would be increased to a uniform rate of 4.2 cents January 1, 1970, as contrasted with the present rate of 3.6 cents.

A family farm or farm corporation must be a real property or a corporation owned by members of the immediate family and used for the production of agricultural products for commercial purposes. Such farms and corporations must devote 75 percent or more of their assets to the business of agriculture. This law was amended November 30, 2004, to include those borrowers who have a current teaching certification in the field of agriculture from a postsecondary institution located within the Commonwealth and who begin teaching an agriculture curriculum on or after November 30, 2004. The amendment also extends the eligibility requirements to those borrowers who received their degrees in veterinary medicine or in a field related to agriculture from any accredited college or university. The program repays up to $2,000 per year on outstanding AES-administered federally-insured student loans for each year that you practice veterinary medicine, are employed full-time in the operation of a family farm or a family farm corporation, or are teaching an agriculture curriculum. The law limits you to a lifetime maximum award of $10,000 in loan forgiveness payments. Loans eligible for forgiveness (repayment) are those incurred by borrowers to finance higher education through PHEAA-guaranteed and/or AES-owned loans serviced by AES. Personal and commercial loans do not qualify. Eligibility for agriculture graduates requires that you must: Hold a degree in a field related to the production of agricultural products.

MFA in Studio Art
Creating art is a highly personalized experience, and so is the process of learning and developing as an artist. The intensive summer Master of Fine Arts in Studio Art recognizes that, and strives to nurture each student's needs and goals by offering a variety of specialized disciplines, including Ceramics, Painting, Sculpture, Multidisciplinary Studies, Installation and Photography; providing studio access for individually focused studio experiences during the eight-week summer semester, and assigning students an individual mentor for the fall and spring semesters to guide their studio and writing work.
Designed to meet the needs of artists working and living in the Philadelphia area, as well as artists who are seeking a distance-learning master of fine arts degree, the MFA in Studio Art provides the conceptual, critical, historical and practical knowledge needed to sustain a successful studio.
Benefits of the intensive summer program include the flexibility to continue working while completing degree requirements and the opportunity to work with a variety of renowned visiting artists. During the on-campus portion of the program, students have extended studio access to UArts' multiple facilities, including dedicated studios for painting, ceramics and sculpture; three major gas kilns with 90-, 40- and 30- cubic foot capacity; electric kilns; wood and metal shops; a carving studio; forge; foundry, and drawing studios.
The intensive summer MFA in Studio Arts is 60-credit degree-granting program that can be completed in two-and-a-half years. Students partake in three eight-week summer residencies at the UArts campus in Philadelphia. During the Spring and Fall semesters, students complete independent studios, writing and research projects, and work on the thesis exhibition and paper during the final fall semester.
Local students meet with studio faculty five times during the spring and fall semesters for critiques, while students outside the Philadelphia region will meet with assigned studio mentors in their geographic area four times a semester before returning to campus for a final critique with the program's faculty, and will also complete off-campus writing and research projects via mail or email with program faculty. Successful completion of a thesis project is required for conferral of an MFA degree.
In addition to the general requirements for graduate admission, a portfolio exhibiting a level of mastery is the primary prerequisite for the MFA. Applicants should submit images that represent the recent direction of the work as well as the full range of experience in one or more of the disciplines to which application is being made. Applicants should submit 18-20 digital images or time-based media for review online. Please refer to the instructions in the Portfolios section of the application instructions.
Applicants should note the intensive summer programs are year-round and require three annual eight-week, on-campus summer residences as well as off-campus independent study during the fall and spring semesters. These programs extend over two and a half years culminating in a thesis exhibition following completion of the third fall semester. Accepted MFA students must begin their studies in the summer semester.

Hmmm ... Canada geese.
Do you know that ProSlide - whose designers created the likes of ZOOMbabwe, Bakuli, Mammoth, Bahari and Wildebeest - is based in Canada?
Oh, and they are also the crazy creators of our new Hyena Falls.
Perhaps these two waterfowl (who promised not to befoul the water - which will be filtered, treated and tested as always for a pristine opening day) are ProSlide's pets? Mascots? Sidekicks?
Ah, we'll never know. After a brief float, these two lovelies took the to air again, heading north to their summer home.

Published: 2/8/2013 10:54 PM | Last update: 2/8/2013 11:59 PM Victory at Sterling caps a Haven-ly week for girlsDavis scores 19 to lead way; Sterling boys hold off Wildcats behind Engelland.STERLING - Dwight Roper's happy with this week.His Haven girls started the week by bagging a 39-31 road win over Pratt on Tuesday and then came up with another big "W" on Friday night, beating Central Kansas League rival Sterling 49-39.
"They're a good team. They beat us in December," Roper said of the 48-45 setback they dropped to the Black Bears on Dec. 7. "We knew what they had. Somebody's going to have play really well in 2A to beat them." And Haven (15-2) had to have its very best to leave here with a victory. It survived a game of runs by making its count. Senior guard Hailey Davis was the key contributor for the Wildcats, scoring 11 of her 19 points in the fourth quarter. With the Black Bears (14-3) leading 31-30 after the first three quarters, Davis followed Samantha Stallbaumer's three-pointer by scoring the next six points. She started with a pair of free throws and then added two wonderful runners in transition - the spark Haven needed to take over the game. "We got it out to Hailey and she can make things happen in the open floor," Roper said. "There're not a lot of people who can go from zero to 60 as fast as she can. She got loose, got out in the open floor, made some buckets and everybody relaxed." Senior Ashley Rogers followed by hitting three of her next four free throws to give Haven a 42-35 edge. The two veterans combined to hit seven of the Wildcats' final eight throws to ice the game and combined to score 20 points after intermission. Just as important as Davis and Rogers' clutch shooting in the final minutes was Haven's effort on the glass. Against a team that boasted plenty of size inside, the Wildcats crashed the boards and held a 15-8 edge on second-half rebounds that helped them get additional scores. "Coach stressed it a lot that we really needed to box out and we really took it to heart," Davis said. Rogers and MaKayla matched each other with a game-high nine rebounds. Pair that with the ball movement that helped Haven hit five 3s and Sterling had trouble taking a hold of the game. "We just kept moving the ball. We knew what we had to do," said Davis, who also snagged five rebounds. "We had to drive, kick out to open people and we shared the ball really well, I thought. We also used our inside game and that got them off us for some open shots." The Wildcats limited Sterling's starters to just 20 total points. Freshman guard Kylah Comley came off the bench to spark the Black Bears with a team-high 11. Haven took a 24-21 halftime lead by hitting four 3s in the first half. Sydney Stephan hit on two of her three attempts from beyond the arc. Sterling boys 58, Haven 55 - The Wildcats staged a furious fourth-quarter comeback but never overcame their off play in the middle quarters and fell to their CKL counterparts. "They hit us in the mouth a couple of times, but we were able to respond," Haven coach Lonnie Paramore said. Cody Crabtree scored Haven's first eight points in the final period, including an unaided 6-0 run that cut Sterling's lead to 47-43. A few free throws helped push the Black Bears ahead by seven a few minutes later, but Tim Hendrixson - who came off the bench to net 21 points - knocked down his fourth three of the game and then hit a fadeaway jumper on the other side of a Jed Beachy three to trim Sterling's lead to just two. The Black Bears responded by hitting five of its last six free throws to stay a step ahead. Hendrixson was fouled on a three-point attempt with 8.5 seconds left and Sterling up by just two. But he cashed in on only one of the shots and Austin Maxwell grabbed the rebound, was fouled and hit a free throw to round out the Black Bears' scoring. Haven (11-6) got the ball with seven seconds but couldn't find a good shot. Beachy tried for a deep 3 at the top of the key but it clunked off the iron. "We were trying to ball screen and get some penetration or get it to the shooter if they help off," Paramore said of the final play. "We got a shot up. That's all you can ask for if you got a chance." The Black Bears (7-10) outscored Haven 36-25 in the eight minutes before and after halftime. Guard Kirk Engelland led all players with 23 points, including a 5-for-8 mark on 3s, while Maxwell - a 6-foot-5 post - muscled his way to a near double double with 21 points and nine boards. "Maxwell's an animal inside," Paramore said. "He's got 30 pounds on any of my guys and he used it and used it well."
Haven's bench scored 33 points, good for 60 percent of its total offensive output. Aside from Hendrixson's 21, Jacob Newcomer added nine and Zach Hendrixson hit a 3.

Bella is really adorable. I miss our Yorkies, and only yesterday we found one (along with another pup) in our yard. Thankfully, there was a phone number on of of their tags and their owner picked them up.
And yes, I probably am the only one wishing the sun would take a hike. We had a miserable drought (plus wildfires) last year, and ever since then I can't enough of cloudy skies and rain. I'll never again take them for granted. Besides, summers here are very long and very hot and worst of all... humid. The heat index can get up to 110 degrees, so bring on the thunderstorms. :p
Glad I found your blog, by the way. I love reading everyone's letters.
I will now be replying to comments right here on this thread! wahoo! And even if I don't get to your comment, please know I read every single one! I also always answer emails! email@example.com

WASHINGTON, May 21, 2012
New hire joins recently recruited key Santorum staff for ongoing grassroots expansion
WASHINGTON, May 21, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ --�Generation Opportunity today announced the ongoing expansion of its roster of grassroots and coalitions experts with the addition of a former member of House Speaker Newt Gingrich's 2012 presidential campaign team. The new addition builds on the group's recent hiring of three top members of Senator Rick Santorum's presidential campaign team.
Generation Opportunity hired Carlos Muhletaler, former Florida Southeast Regional Director for the Newt 2012 campaign, to serve as a Regional Field Director.�Muhletaler is a Florida native and a graduate of Regis University in Denver, Colorado. He�also holds a Masters Degree from Vanderbilt University in Latin American Studies. Muhletaler has worked with a number of non-profits, leading educational and grassroots organizing efforts throughout Florida, and has worked closely within a number of communities in the state including the Hispanic community.�
"Generation Opportunity continues to rapidly expand our grassroots efforts in order to maximize our capacity to organize and mobilize the millions of young Americans who are increasingly disaffected by the lack of jobs and economic opportunity.�Young people are very savvy and know they are being forced to delay their dreams as a direct result of the failed policies coming out of Washington.�They will not settle for the status quo, and our expanding team of committed and highly talented professionals is working day and night to help them change the course of the nation for the better," said Amber Roseboom, Executive Vice President of Generation Opportunity and a former official at the Department of Labor and the Department of Homeland Security.
In the past several weeks, Generation Opportunity has grown its national grassroots team with a number of hirings including:
Generation Opportunity recently conducted a tour of college campuses in the�Fort Lauderdale�and�Miami�areas, which included stops at�Broward�College, the�University of Miami,�Florida International University, and�Nova Southeastern University. In addition, the grassroots team engaged young people at a variety of public events including a Miami Heat game held at American Airlines Arena, the ING Miami Marathon, the Homestead Championship Rodeo, and a parade in�Homestead, Florida.�
In 2011, the group joined nearly 1,500 Hispanic business leaders in�Miami, Florida, as a participant in the 32nd Annual U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (USHCC) National Convention and Business Expo. The group has also participated in the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) Convention, a number of major events hosted by the Hispanic Leadership Network, twice participated in the annual Que Pasa? Festival in Richmond, Virginia, and conducted other outreach efforts.�
Generation Opportunity has also made its popular online training guide series available in Spanish. The complete series of guides is available at�http://generationopportunity.org/take-action/�and in Spanish at http://generationopportunity.org/espanol/.�
The guides are designed to assist young Americans in telling their stories of how the poor economy has impacted them to the media and to elected officials.
Generation Opportunity is a non-profit, non-partisan 501 (c)(4) organization that seeks to engage everyone from young adults, to early career professionals, college students, young mothers and fathers, construction workers, current service men and women, veterans, entrepreneurs, and all Americans who find themselves dissatisfied with the status quo and willing to create a better tomorrow.
Generation Opportunity operates on a strategy that combines advanced social media tactics with proven field tactics to reach Americans 18-29. The organization's social media platforms ? "Being American by GO," "The Constitution by GO," and "Gas Prices Are Too Damn High" on Facebook ? have amassed a total fan base of more than 3.3 million.

"Unknown, unloved" is a well-known expression that applies everywhere and for everything, especially if you cannot see it, because invisibility makes things almost per definition unknown. Take radioactivity, for instance. You cannot see it but it does kill people. The nuclear physicists Marie and Pierre Curie were among the first victims of their own discoveries. But since their pioneering days, we became familiar with the nature of radioactivity and have identified how we can now work safely with radioactive materials. Instead of being classified only as a ruthless killer, radioactivity is now also used in nuclear medicine where it can help save human lives.
A similar situation arises for nanotechnology. We've all heard about it but we don't know what it really entails and we can't see it, so we classify it as dangerous. Evolution programmed us to fear the unknown in order to survive. This review aims to explain what the implications of nanotechnology in cosmetic science and products are, to eliminate the "unknown" aspect. The review will be in two parts and will focus on the skin delivery aspects of nanotechnology much more than on the principles of nanotechnology and its reputed benefits, although some of them, in particular in sun care, will be mentioned.
Part I, presented here, describes the role of nanotechnology in skin delivery systems in terms of what I call the four Rs of skin delivery. Part II will appear in print in the January 2009 issue of Cosmetics & Toiletries magazine. Part II addresses the fear issue by evaluating experimental skin penetration data on nanomaterials used in cosmetics. Part II also presents a summary and a brief look at the benefits of using nano-sized materials in general and in cosmetics in particular. This knowledge should allow the cosmetic scientist to make a well-informed decision on whether or not to use nanotechnology in his or her products.
Part I begins here with my definition of skin delivery. The definition does not change in the context of nanotechnology and skin delivery. It is: to transport the Right chemical, to the Right site in the skin, at the Right concentration for the corRect period of time.1 In fact, all skin delivery systems do have an influence on one or more of these four Rs. They may, for instance, affect the right chemical by protecting it and thereby ensure that it will not be an ineffective degradation product that reaches the site of action. They could also impinge on the right site in the skin by targeting the delivery to the site of action of the active ingredient. They could also enhance the skin delivery, thereby ensuring that the right concentration is being used. And finally, they might prolong skin delivery, thereby ensuring that the active ingredient is delivered for a sufficiently long period of time. Please note that I am not saying that all four of these benefits apply for every skin delivery system but if nanotechnology would have any skin delivery benefit, it should influence at least one or more of these four Rs of skin delivery.
Many skin delivery systems actually do use nanotechnology. Dozens of them are listed in the table of contents in Meyer Rosen's recent book2 on delivery systems for personal care and cosmetic products. One could cite liposomes, nanospheres, penetration enhancers, microcapsules, microspheres, stable multiple emulsions, cationic silicone complexes, enzymatically activated encapsulation techniques and many others from Rosen's seemingly endless list! When I attempted to order such a range of skin delivery systems and functionalities, I finally realized that the functionality of a delivery system is actually following my own definition of the four R's of a cosmetic delivery system. That is why I will subdivide skin delivery systems as those that affect the Right chemical, the Right site, the Right concentration and the corRect period of time in the following discussion of how nanotechnology fits in with each of these functions of skin delivery systems.

THE MAROON DEVOTED TO THE INTERESTS OF LOYOLA UNIVERSITY VOL 1 NEW ORLEANS, LA., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1923 No: 4 PSI OMEGA GIVES ANNUAL FRESHMAN SMOKER By JAS. A. COMEAUX, JR Loyola Delta Omega Chapter Entertain Large Gathering in Roosevelt. Freshmen Dental class were guests of the Delta Omega chapter of Psi Omega at one on the most successful smokers in the history of the local chapter. Truly the freshies should remember ■that night for they were gloriously treated to good eats, smokes and honest to goodness liquid refreshments, such as only Messrs. Ledbetter and Foley could arrange for. The freshies responded to roll call by the upper class men promptly at nine o'clock, and the affair started just a little later with a toast by Mr. Smith to Psi Omega and went on quietly until the effect of the grape juice and Coca- Cola became noticeable, and then the tun began, and resulted in a pleasing combination of the sublime and the ridiculous. Informal as it was the purposes of the smoker were admirable accomplished. What better idea could we get of the personality of a man than by seeing him eat and drink and hear.HE Him making speeches? Well this test \va Vppiied when Mr. Comeaux as impromptu toastmaster called upon each one of the first year men after proper introduction to say something for themselves and for the freshmen class. When freshie Broussard's turn came, Mr. Comeaux showed good judgment in asking him to sing some of his famous songs. The officers of the chapter were then called upon and each one in his own way explained to the freshmen the desire of all the frat members to become acquainted with them and all 1 expressed the hope that they would some day qualify as members of the Delta Omega chapter. Past Grand Master Dr. Tiblier in a little talk recited to the freshmen the history and the accomplishments of the chapter at the university and fondly expressed the hope that the good work would be kept up by the present members and those of the future. Dr. White though not a member of Ps'. "Omega had nothing but praise for the chapter and its work in fostering the highest ideals of the dental profession.About this time the sandwiches and drinks were all consumed and the after smoker stories were now in order. Mr. Ledbetter was unanimously sel- ected to tell a few, and as he was feeling exceedingly well he kept the party roaring for the time he was on the floor. Grand Master Strickland then called upon every member of the fraternity to say something, and each one expressed his enthusiasm in fraternity work, and patted himself on the back as having passed through the initiation to active membership. Mr. Nolan, President of the freshmen class then called his gang together and wound up the affair by giving fifteen rahs for Psi Omega. DEBATING SOCIETY IS FORMED Officers Are Elected; Much Enthusiasm Shown. Another milestone in the epochmaking progress of Loyola University was passed when the students of the college department organized a long needed debating society. There has been a long standing and widespread demand for such a society but the boys were never able to get together. This year the question was again brought up and through the earnest and consistent work of George Schoenberger what was before merely a wish has now become a reality. The inaugural meeting was held on Wednesday, December 12, at which about fifteen or twenty enthusiastic members were present. Mr. Dardis was elected president; Mr. Crane, vicepresident; and Mr. Schoenberger, secretary and treasurer. The first formal meeting was held Tuesday, December 18, at which the constitution and plan of procedure was adopted. The meetings will be held every other Tuesday, at which a debate will be held on some live question, and great benefit is expected to be derived by the members. We are on the way, expect better.things. SODALITY FIXES DAYS OF MEETING Committees for Various Sections Are Named. Henceforth the first semi-monthly meeting of the Sodality will be on the first Friday of the month at 7 :00 A. M. and the second meeting will be on the third Wednesday of the month at 8:00 A. M. At the first meeting there will be Mass and general Communion. The second meeting will consist of the recitation of the Office, followed by the reports of the Chairman of the Sections.The Sections themselves will meet in the week preceding the third Wednesday.In the Truth Section the following Committees were formed: (1) Bookrack Committee; A Songy, Geo. C. Schoenberger, Jr., A. Brue. (2) Catholic Magazine Distribution Committee : J. Fleuriet, J. Macaluso, E. Vega. (3) Waj's and Means Committee: P. Clark, G. Bernard, H. Dempsey. These committees were formed in the Welfare Section: (1) Foreign Missions: A. Yenni, W. Hanemann, M. Yenni. (2) Local Needs: M. Hartson, Geo. C. Schoenberger, Jr., A. Hanemann.LAW DEBATING SOCIETY HAS A BRIGHT FUTURE On Tuesday, November 27, the Loyola Law Debating Society, perfected its organization by the ratification of its charter, and election of officers. In order to establish a precedent, the president was chosen from the Senior class, the vice-president, from the Junior, the secretary-treasurer from the Freshman, and the position of sergeant-at-arms was left vacant, to be filled by a member of the pre-legal class. All officers were elected unanimously. Mr. Werthheimer was elected president; Mr. E. P. Dutsch, vicepresident, and Mr. S. C. Hartel, secretary and treasurer. At the first meeting following the election, the president announced the creation of Publicity, Program, and Rules Committees, and explained the duties of the members of each committee. Mr. Schwartz was appointed chairman of the Publicity Committee; Mr. Dutsch, of the Program; and Mr. Yiosca, of the Rules. It was unanimously adopted that debates should be held on three out of every four meetings, and that the fourth meeting should be devoted to business. The first debate of the year was held on Thursday, December 13, between teams representing the Freshman and Junior classes. The subject was "Resolved, Thaf the Philippines be given their immediate independence." The affirmative was supported by Messrs. Boagni and Finnorn of the Freshmen, and the negative by Messrs. Schwartz and Brown of the Juniors. Messrs. Racivitch, Monier, and Gardiner, of the Senior class, awarded a unanimous decision in favor of the negative, and for Mr. Brown as best speaker. While the judges were deliberating, Father. Kenny spoke a few words on the necessity for adequate preparation in debating, and congratulated the speakers on the splendid debate that they had arranged on such a short notice. President Werthheimer, announced that beginning the following week, a series of elimination debates will be held. This series will be climaxed by a final debate between the two undefeated teams, and a prize of $100.00 will be awarded the winning team. $50.00 of this prize will be given to the best speaker, and $25.00 to each of his colleagues. The debate for next week will be on the subject, "Resolved, That the railroads of the United States be placed under government ownership." It will be held in the Junior class rom of the Law School on Thursday, December 20th, at nine o'clock . All are invited to attend. LADIES' AUXILIARY MARQUETTE ASS'N Dear Friends: The Christmas season is the season of our heartiest, deepest gratitude to God for all His favors. We, of Loyola, feel that our hearts are full of gratitude at all times towards the devoted members of the Ladies Auxiliary, Marquette Association. Christmas calls for this expression, and we gladly extend to each and every officer and to all the members, Loyola's best wishes for God's choicest blessings at Christmastide.May the Divine Child reward you for all you have done for His work and for His glory, in generously giving your services, your money, your time, to Loyola's interests, Christ's own school. I trust that your Christmas gift to Loyola will be a new member, so that our work may increase more and more for the glory of Him, Who came 011 earth to bring peace to men of good will. Merry, Merry Xmas then, and a inrice Happy New Year. It is my last message of this dying year and my first greetings for the opening of 1924. Very sincerely, E. CUM MINGS, S.J. P. S.—As the first Tuesday falls on New \ ear s Day, we shall have our meeting on the second Tuesday in January. Kindly start the year by a full atendance at this first meeting. Bring your new member. The meeting will be special interesting, the hour 3 :30 p. 111., the place, Louise C. Thomas Hall, the purpose, for a Greater Loyola.HOLY NAME CHURCH IS NOW COMPLETED Edifice Most Beautiful in Southland.. Some people will give something thing for the car; and still others someelectrical for Christmas: others something for the house. But the best Christmas present that will be given this year is the one that Brother Shroen will present to the congregation of Holy Name Parish. For on Christmas morn the Holy Name Church will step forth as one of the most beautifully finished churches in the city, thanks to the hard and most artistic work of Bro. Shroen. Brother has been hard at work for nearly a whole year painting, planning and directing, keeping the work going going at top speed in order that he might visit the shrine of the infant Savior as did the Wise men of old and offer Him a gift equal in every respect to their gold incense and myhr. The frescoing is a marvel of achievement. The church is made to appear as if it were built of a beautiful sandstone with the most delicate veining and finishing. Still Brother disclaims any credit at all for what he has done. When told how talented he was, he modestly replied: "It was given to me by the Almighty and I would be greatly at fault if I did not do my best to develop it and return as far as I am able what has been freely given to me." However that may be we all reap the benefits of his labors and are indei d grateful to him. BOAT RIDE MAIN SOCIAL FUNCTION OF THE NEW YEAR Extensive Preparations Have Been Made for January 11. If yon want to start the New Year right and live up to what is expected of you as a Loyola student, ring up your best girl and tell her that you are going to take her on Loyola's big Boat Ride January 11, 1924. Extensive preparations have been made to make this event one that will be remembered by all. It is to be given for the benefit of the Athletic Association, and from this it may readily be inferred that there will be a large crowd present. Every Loyola student is expected, if it is in any way possible, not only to be on hand, but also to bring a friend. Particular care however, must be taken as to the selectness of the crowd present. To provide for this the Athletic Association has issued tickets to each student and is depending upon him for both the quantity and quality of the participants. No tickets will be sold at the boat on the night of the ride, and so every student is urged to attend to this matter as soon as possible. The palatial steamer Capitol has been hired for the occasion. It will be highly decorated with Loyola Maroon and Gold, while one of the best bands that has ever struck a note pf Jazz will set the pace for the whirling dancers. This is the first Boat Ride that Loyola has ever given. It can be readily seen that she must have a worthy representation. Other schools and colleges are planning similar rides in the near future. Loyola's will be first and therefore she has the opportunity to set a precedent that will be difficult for others to follow. The student body has never failed in any social event that they have undertaken. They will not fail in this if they have the same support that was so evident in the past three months. And so on January 11, 1924, at 8:30 P. M. the steamer Capitol will glide serenely down the majestic Mississippi with a crowd of joyful, happy students and friends of Loyola. FRESHIES DANCE GREAT SUCCESS Freshmen of College Department Entertain Large Crowd. The College Department Freshies covered themselves with glory on Saturday, December 8, when they entertained the student body and their friends with the best dance that has been given at the Gym this year. It was the most successful dance that has ever been given. The hall was fairly packed and yet there was present that wonderful combination of congenial sociability and quiet dignity that has characterized all such Loyola functions. The Dixola Jazz Band did themselves proud and thoroughly delighted the record making crowd. The boys are to be complimented for put ing it over and they deserve a lot of praise for beating the upper classmen We are glad to have such spirit anio ig out first year men for it gives us D Jinething to beat that is really wor h beating. SENIORS All Seniors of all Departments at Loyola are urged to have their pictures taken in Cap and Gown at the Studio of Rembrandt, 918 Canal Street, before the Ist of the year. It is necessary that this be attended to at once otherwise the pictures will not appear in the Ginger Pot. To the Faculty, to the Students, and to its Subscribers and Advertisers, the Maroon extends the warmest of Christmas Greetings and the best of New Year Wishes. May Santa Claus be good to each and every one of you, and may the dying emblems of the Yule Log send forth the spark of prosperity that will be yours throughout the coming New Year.

Is there any economical game which demonstrates social-democratic economy rather than capitalism?
I can't imagine how socialism could make a remotely fun game. Even with competition aside, capitalism gives the players choice. With government (the game rules) controlling the economy, the game just plays itself. Where do the players fit into this? |

You must earn 10,000 points to post other members' whiteboard
A BIG CONGRATS on reaching that 2M mark and your nice new ride! Wow! Truly awesome! You're one of only 2,828 of more than 8,000,000 GBs that have accumulated at least 2,000,000 points! Keep going another million or more! Most people who signed up to be GBs will never make it to 1M, but you have made it to 2M! Many of the GBs ahead of you have already retired, only 1,733 GBs have reached 2.5M, and only 764 have continued on to 3M! Don't give up now, like so many of the GBs that reached 1M and 2M then retired, persistence and dedication will get you to the 3M and 4M mark and beyond! The top GBs are celebrating their 11th and 12th year anniversary here on GasBuddy, so you have plenty of time to get there also! Keep going like a PRO New Jersey GasBuddy leading the way for others to follow! Have a nice week! Thanks! Ron
Congratulations on earning 1.98 MM points. Lets be buddies also. thanks. Shep I see the consecutive days bug got you also. He gets most of us I am on my way back also. Lets be buddies Thanks. Shep
Would you like to be buddies?
Thanks for the reply. From time to time Wrench went to the Armory in Bordentown & his brother had a business in Mount Holly.
Where in NJ are you???
ah ok, thanks for the update
I used to whiteboard/pm those pinheads who would post prices for non-existent products. The PTB told me not to do that; to report the chump directly to them. I figured that they should do all the work, so I'm playing by their rules. Let them be the heavy.
2 ricebike: I posted an article yesterday where a local VOLT owner claimed 542 MPG in a direct quote... now how can't that help in reducing gasoline demand and prices? Thanks, Joe
Unless Astro changed it's policy over night, they are a cash or credit station.. I wil drive by there in a few hours to confirm. Regards, Joe
Hi ricebike, Noticed your great comment on today's news item, "2014 Chevrolet Spark EV starts at $27,495". In my opinion, all-electric vehicles are not the answer to high fuel prices or environmental problems. Keep posting good responses. Want to become buddies?? Warren {:-)

Jeffrey Zaslow
Last year in February, my friend Jeffrey Zaslow was killed in car accident. He co-authored with Randy Pausch, the global bestseller, The Last Lecture. Suffice to say that all his bestselling books that followed – The Girls from Ames, Capt. Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger: Highest Duty, Gabrielle Giffords and Mark Kelly: Gabby, and The Magic Room: A Story About the Love We Wish For Our Daughters – made him a beloved writer the world over.
His 20-year old daughter, Alexandra Zaslow, remembers him most for his daily acts of kindness: Read her column.
In 2010 Jeff spoke at our fundraiser for the Milton (MA) Public Library and actually went out of his way to see our newly renovated library. "I want to see this library that I'm raising money for," he said. No other speaker ever bothered.
I made him lunch and he was gracious when the salmon was way undercooked, and generous as we discussed our writing. I still hold precious his words to me, "You write with a lot of heart."
While he was alive he racked up accomplishments as a Wall Street Journal columnist, a best selling author, and an engaging national speaker. Yet he is remembered most, with great love and feeling, as being a Great Encourager. His role modeling lives on.

Supporting Digital Immigrants. On-line Courses for Teachers on Internet Safety in Austria
Media education is an intercurricular subject in Austrian schools, however, it is not a part of teacher's formal education. Teachers with good digital competencies are much more willing to discuss online safety issues with their students in classes. Therefore, enhancing these skills among teachers will ultimately help to bring these topics into mainstream education. A handful of powerful e-learning tools have been introduced to help teachers familiarise with online safety basics and integrate this topic into their classes.
We have found that reaching out to educators with quality e-learning content on online safety works best in collaboration with reputable providers of teacher training or sites that teachers go to. This ensures that the resources will match their needs as well as guarantee the sustainability of the knowledge base. These conclusions were formulated by Saferinternet.at, the Austrian EU-funded initiative of the Safer Internet Programme for online safety that, among other activities, provides teacher trainings on this topic.

So with 360 being the only system with entire RBN library, and ps3 & wii having only selected tracks, do you consider switching to 360 as your platform of choice for RB?
So with 360 being the only system with entire RBN library, and ps3 & wii having only selected tracks, do you consider switching to 360 as your platform of choice for RB?
"Just thought I'd mention that it's cool to see a Paper Mario fan who also appreciates death metal. Great job!"
I considered it for a second, but after all I've invested in my Ps3 setup I can't jsutify the cost. I wouldn't use the XBox for anything but RB if I did, so the answer is no...
PSN: Razorhoof78
"Every time I see you, I think of you..."
Luckily I chose 360 but that really stinks for you guys. Maybe if a whole bunch of people message Nintendo and Sony about it the will at least consider making something like XNA
Look at me do things on youtube!
Free Bacon!!!!!
hecks no! between 2 warbeasts, an ION, & over 400 DLC songs, I have enough invested already. So far there are only a couple RBN songs I want. I'm satisfied with the "select" songs we'll get from RBN
FEEL the Power of the Dark Side! It gives you Strength and Focus!
Not worth considering due to it not just being the console but also all the hardware, then the software and then the all the purchased DLC. Far too expensive to attempt a console switch this late in the game.
So it is a case of sit back and see how HMX will handle the transfer of songs over to PS3 (and Wii?) from RBN.
Lord no. I love my PS3 and the system exclusive games for PS3 are more up my alley than the 360 exclusive games (e.g. Uncharted, God of War).
Besides, I'm not ready to commit Rock Band Hari-Kari before seeing what "selected" tracks PS3 and Wii users get. PS3 users are used to waiting since Rock Band 2, so, it comes with the territory.
No, but if RB3 drops the Wii, then I'll have a camel with a broken back on my hands.
[X]TLoZ [ ]TAoL [X]ALttP [X]LA [X]OoT [X]MM [X]OoS [ ]OoA [X]FS [X]TWW
If somebody cares enough about the RBN, they would likely already be purchasing DLC for RB as it is. And it would be hard to justify flipping consoles when you'd have to rebuy (or simply not buy) the old content.
Tiger Uppercut: Platinum Artist | Expert: G/B | Hard: D/V
Song Count: 831 | Newest: "Great Balls of Fire" & "Dog Days Are Over"
I think it's a bit early to ask questions like this. I think we should first see how much "select songs" is - it could be most of them, you never know.
RBN is the greatest invention known to man! (Aside from RB3)

1) Analog cable - any TV or analog EyeTV device can directly receive this part. Otherwise known as Basic Cable, and might be from 10-80 channels, depending. EyeTV 250 Plus and EyeTV Hybrid can receive this. They have cable ready (analog) tuners just like a regular TV, for channels up to 125. Analog signals will eventually disappear from cable lines.
2) Unencrypted Digital Cable (Clear QAM) - this is rare, with only a few channels. A special Clear QAM tuner is needed to receive it. EyeTV 250 Plus (2008), EyeTV Hybrid (2008, 2009, 2010) and the HDHomeRun can receive this.
3) Encrypted Digital Cable - this is the majority of the digital signals. These channels can only be accessed with a cable box. No tuner outside of a cable box can receive them. EyeTV 610 for Europe is an exception, since it can take a special authorization card in some parts of some countries. Such a card is not allowed in the US, but might be in a few years.
If you have a cable box, you can use it with an EyeTV device with analog inputs (like EyeTV 250, EyeTV 250 Plus or EyeTV Hybrid). Change channels manually using the cable box remote. You will see the full range of standard TV channels (whatever your cable box can tune), but not HDTV. The exception to this is the EyeTV HD which can receive HD signal from a cable box or satellite receiver.
Here are some US providers of Digital Cable:
Adelphia AT&T Broadband Charter Communications Comcast Cox Communications Time Warner
Here are some Canadian providers of Digital Cable:
Cogeco EastLink Rogers Cable Shaw Cable Vidéotron
