You have your team pak, you may or may not have your team formed but you find yourself asking:
What is everyone talking about when they say 'structure' or 'Challenge A' or 'Improv?' What challenge should we pick? What's the difference between them all?
To start, lets break down the DI Challenges for this year. You have probably looked at the bullet points of interest, but I find that it is helpful to look at the scoring breakdown to help you understand where the main focus of each challenge is. Keep reading to see my high level breakdown of the 6 DI competitive Challenges and the non-competitive Rising Stars Challenge for DI's youngest members (K-2nd grade).
Challenge A: Assembly Required
Known as the 'Technical' challenge, Challenge A focuses on engineering and technical design.
Challege A always requires the kids to design and build something- TECHNICAL. This year they will be designing and building equipment to retrieve parts and deliver products that can hold at least one team member (just to give you an idea that this means something on a large scale).
At a high level if your team chooses this challenge you will be required to:
• Design and build Equipment that retrieves Parts and delivers Products.
• Assemble Products from team-provided Parts to Orders, and use the Products in your team's Presentation.
• Earn extra points by deciding how best to Orders with no Parts or Products left over in the Assembly Area.
• Present a team-created story about something that happens just in time.
In Challenge A, it is important to realize that the majority of the points that a team will receive at the tournament revolves around the TECHNICAL element and the tasks that the team needs to complete as outlined in the challenge. If you look at the scoring breakdown for Challenge A out of a possible 240 points for your central challenge, there are only a possible 30 points for the story- the rest of the points are focused on the product, equipment, and success in completing the required orders.
What this means for you as a TM: If you have a team of kids who are excited about building something technical and they want to put their time and energy into working on a their products and their equipment, this challenge is the one for you. If you have a team of kids whose focus is on acting and who want to spend all their time on the story portion making costumes, etc. perhaps this is not the challenge you want to focus on.
Challenge B: The Solar Stage
Challenge B is the 'Scientific' challenge or may unofficially be called the 'hybrid' challenge as it includes some sort of a scientific or technical focus as well as a theatrical/performance focus.
Challenge B is designed for those kids who really like science and love to do research who can spend time learning and researching something, and then will integrate their findings into their performance. This year 'The Solar Stage' is focused on solar energy.
Those teams chosing Challenge B will have to:
• Create and present a theatrical performance that tells a Story about the use of solar energy.
• Integrate research about past and/or current uses of solar energy.
• Design and create a Solar Energy Prototype that demonstrates a new way to collect, capture and use solar energy.
• Design and provide Theatrical Lighting to be used to illuminate the Presentation and to create special theatrical effects.
Looking at the scoring for Challenge B, roughly 1/3 of the points are focused on the story, roughly 1/3 on the a prototype for solar energy, and roughly 1/3 on theatrical lighting (more of the 'technical' focus. See the breakdown below which is found on Page 6 of The Solar Stage):
Challenge B is a great challenge choice for teams that are split between those who are 'technical' and want to BUILD stuff but who also want to PERFORM. This is the best of both worlds giving kids the opportunity to focus on a little bit of everything including a major research component.
Challenge C: Coming Attractions!
Challenge C is known as the 'Theater' or 'Performance' challenge. This is the challenge for those kids who love to PERFORM.
While teams oftentimes are asked to incorporate something 'technical' into their solution (this year through a cinematic special effect) the main focus is on the performance itself.
This year's Challenge C teams will:
• Present a Movie Trailer involving characters from at least two Nations.
• Design a Cinematic Special Effect and feature it in the Movie Trailer.
• Create an Original Soundtrack that complements the Movie Trailer.
If you look at the scoring, over 50% of the Central Challenge score is on the performance aspects of a team's solution, 17% including the incorporation of original music, and the remainder a cinematic special effect (the 'technical' element)
TMs, Challenge C is all about the costumes, the sets, and the PERFORMANCE! If your kids love to be in the spotlight, are musically inclined and love to focus on their sets and backdrops to enhance the performance, then this is the challenge for you!
Challenge D: News to Me!
Challenge D is all about the Improvisation and the Acting Skills! This is a unique challenge that is quite unlike the rest of them, but those who love it wouldn't choose anything else!
Kids that choose Challenge D will:
• Learn about different types of News Stories.
• Learn about Cause and Effect relationships.
• Practice techniques for Cooperative Human Scenery and Props and use Cooperative Human Scenery and Props to enhance your Skit.
• Create a 5-minute Improvisational Skit about the Cause-and-Effect relationship between two unrelated News Stories.
• Have all your plans suddenly become totally discombobulated by a
• One-Minute Glitch (OMG)!
The Scoring Breakdown for this Challenge focuses on all of the above points of interest and all scores are given based on the performance that the appraisers see on stage at the tournament!
Challenge E: Hold It!
'Structure' as it is called for short is all about the tiny little wooden thing that you will see kids stacking metal weights on top of at the tournament- the 'structure'. Architectural Engineering and Design is the focus, and this year there is a technical element thrown in to add another DImension.
Challenge E Teams will:
- Design, build and test a Structure made entirely out of wood and glue to hold weight and contain Tournemnt-provided golf balls.
- Design and build a Delivery Device that will deposit the golf balls, one at a time, into the Structure
- Create and present an original story about a 'Capivator'
- Integrate the Weight Placement and Golf Ball Delivery into the Story
As you can see, 58% of the points for Challenge E come from the Weight Held Ratio (aka 'the Structure'), 17% on the Golf Ball Delivery Device (a Technical Element), and only 25% from the Story.
Those teams who choose this challenge should have one or more team members who are excited and dedicated to building and testing structures throughout the DI season, at least one person who is excited to work on building a Delivery Device (this can be simple or super technical) and some folks who want to work on the story. Keep in mind that over 50% of a team's score for this challenge is determined based on how the structure performs on tournament day. If a team doesn't have at least one member who is excited and willing to focus on the Structure, they should perhaps choose a different challenge.
Project Outreach: The World Canvas
Project Outreach is DI's Service Learning Challenge that is unique in that it lets team focus on things in their community and use Creative Problem Solving Tools to help them come up with a solution. This Challenge involves working within your community throughout the season on your chosen project, and presenting your solution at tournament based on the things that you have completed within your community! Teams may choose to create their project from scratch or continue an existing Project within the community that was started by the team or by another group.
Project Outreach Teams Will:
- Use creative problem solving tools to identify and select at least one real community need
- Design and carry out a Project to address the need.
- Create an Advertisement and use it in your Project.
- Create a Marketing Brochure to describe your Project.
- Share your Project at the Tournament with an entertaining live presentation.
Project Outreach teams will be scored on their their Project as a whole, including the Advertisements and Marketing Brochures they prepare, their Presentation at the Tournament, and the Impact their project is having within the community.
This is a great challenge for those kids who have a passion for Community Service/Service Learning projects and are looking for a way to incorporate DI practically into their communities.
Rising Stars: Built to Last
The Rising Stars! Challenge is DI's non-competitive challenge designed for young children kindergarten through grade 2. The idea is to expose kids to DI and help them to start learning creativity, teamwork and problem solving at an early age so they are ready to dive into the competitive program when they get older. Like the other Challenges, Rising Stars teams will present their solutions at tournament, but unlike the competitive teams, they will not receive scores for their solutions, rather they will be given feedback and praise for their solutions.
Team's Solving Build to Last Will:
- Learn about toys and how they have changed over time.
- Create a play about making the best toy that will ever be made. Explore how your team works together to make decisions about your team created toy.
I hope that this helps give you a better idea about each of the challenges and the focuses of them. If you already have your team perhaps this will help you as a TM understand where the kids should be focusing their energies. If you haven't picked a challenge yet, perhaps this will help you facilitate a discussion with the kids to help them decide which challenge they want to do.
Thank YOU for volunteering to be a TM and remember that we are here to support you every step of the way! Send your questions or comments to me at firstname.lastname@example.com - don't be shy- I'd love to hear from you!
Happy Wednesay!

11/18/2010: USCIRF Urges Continued Opposition to UN Anti-Blasphemy Resolution |
November 18, 2010
"This minor change in terminology, from defamation to vilification, is a distinction without a difference," said Leonard Leo, USCIRF chair. "Having lost support on this issue over the past few years, the OIC is now trying to fool delegations into believing that the resolution has improved when it has not. This flawed resolution still seeks to protect religions from blasphemous or critical speech, at the expense of individuals' rights to freedom of religion and expression," continued Mr. Leo. "It also still erroneously conflates blasphemy or criticism of religious ideas with incitement to acts of discrimination or violence against individuals."
USCIRF is an independent, bipartisan U.S. federal government commission. USCIRF Commissioners are appointed by the President and the leadership of both political parties in the Senate and the House of Representatives. USCIRF's principal responsibilities are to review the facts and circumstances of violations of religious freedom internationally and to make policy recommendations to the President, Secretary of State and Congress. |

Cool! :D
I am slightly old school. Ages ago when we were using lenses for 35mm cameras on S16 cameras we had to take into consideration the change in focal length. The canon lens is for a Full Frame sensor so I thought that something similar applied there.
Well, the focal length might have stayed unchanged but a lens for a 35mm camera was giving as a narrower field of view on our s16 cameras.
Well, if you focus it right with 5.6 to 8 stop, you get a decent picture. I don't believe that Canons are worse that much that you will notice.
Then again I think better to be in focus on "worse" lens then out of focus on "better lenses.
I would take Canon 24-105mm which is solid replacement for RED 18-85mm and de noise in post if sometimes the lens it too slow because of its f4 minimum stop.
The mm don't change it's just that the field of view changes when used on different sensor sizes. So when shooting 2 k the field of view is like using 16 mm as the sensor crops in. A full frame SLR lens would have the same fov as a pl mount lens on a red. But if you put it on a full frames SLR it would have a wider fov.
I recently acidentally discovered that if you put your follow focus on top rods it will reverse its focus direction. Good cheap solution to those of us who occasionally use nikon lenses without a follow focus that can change focus direction. Just pick up an inexpensive top rod mounting solution from x.

At the moment, I believe the convinience of the electronic Canon mount is the way to go for one man band road trip. Get a lens with image stabilization because that works really well! I just did a shoot with the Canon EF-S 17-55 f2.8 lens. And it was a joy to use hand held. but make sure u bring you camera to test out the lens when you buy as not all lenses are "profiled" so not all of them work perfectly with the canon mount.

I am reading that the QMB1 will stay alive and active. This is all I have ever wanted....so....I have finally decided to post only on the QMB1. I have a lot of problems here on the "2"..both technical and personal. The technical I can't help but the personal is another matter.
When I tried to join at least one group, I was "told" the members would VOTE on my admittance and if I passed then I would be invited in. Nope, not for me! On the QMB1, I can go wherever I want and to visit with all the sisters regardless ~ to me that is Red Hatting. I am looking for Red hat sisters,,,,not friends, best friends,etc....just wonderful red hat sisters.
I know a lot of you LOVE the "2" ..but hope I will run into you on the "1". No hard feelings, I just feel so much more welcome over there and it is much easier for me to post. So, not saying, goodbye ... just till we meet again!
HELLO! (no goodbyes)

PCM girls edge out CMB in final minutes
BAXTER — Free throws aren't the most part of basketball, but if the Prairie City-Monroe and Collins-Maxwell-Baxter girls basketball teams proved anything Friday, it's that they're important.
The Raiders (6-14, 4-12 Heart of Iowa Conference) went on a run and took an eight-point lead at halftime, but the Mustangs (12-6, 10-5) rallied in the third and eventually iced the game at the free throw line to earn a tightly-contested 51-49 victory.
"We didn't play but five girls in the second half with a full-court man-to-man," PCM coach Bret Grier said. "They had every excuse to be tired and have weak legs to miss their free throws, but it showed a lot of resolve for them to knock down those shots in a tight game."
The first quarter was all shot-for-shot as CMB took a 16-14 lead thanks to two late 3-pointers from sophomore Lexi Breon. PCM atually scored the game's first six points with a balanced attack, but the up-and-down tempo eventually made its way toward the Raiders.
After sophomore Courtney Van Houweling and senior Kelsey Townsend regained the lead for PCM in the second, the Raider defense intervened in a big way. Turnovers led to an 11-1 CMB run that close the half and gave the Raiders a 31-23 lead.
"We have a hard time coming out and setting our own intensity," CMB coach Eric Padget said. "We do a good job of matching intensity once we see it, and I think that's what happened tonight. PCM came out with all kinds of intensity and it took us a little while to realize that. When we did, we rode that momentum to halftime."
That lead didn't last long, however, as PCM slashed into the deficit with a 10-4 run to open the second half. Along with a defensive shift, Townsend made her presence known even more late in the quarter, scoring the final six points and hitting a baseline jumper at the buzzer to give PCM a 40-37 lead going into the fourth.

U.S. 2013/14 corn imports projected 5M bushels higher
According to the latest WASDE report from the USDA, projected U.S. feed grain supplies for 2013/14 are raised slightly this month with a 5-M-bushel increase projected for corn imports. With a record crop now estimated for Canada, additional quantities of Canadian corn are expected to find their way into the U.S. market. U.S. corn use for 2013/14 is projected higher with increases for food, seed, and industrial use and for exports. Exports are projected 50M bushels higher based on the pace of sales to date and higher expected global consumption. Projected U.S. ending stocks are lowered 95M bushels. Global coarse grain supplies for 2013/14 are projected 3.6M tons higher. At 1,420.5M tons, supplies are up 122.8M from 2012/13 and 103.1M above the previous record in 2011/12.

A day after David Purchase died, friends remembered him Tuesday as a pioneer who fought HIV-AIDS on the streets of Tacoma and gave birth to what became an international health movement.
With a borrowed TV tray and a folding chair, Purchase began the nation's first exchange of dirty needles for clean ones in 1988 while sitting on a street corner in downtown Tacoma.
All he wanted to do was help prevent the spread of HIV-AIDS among drug users.
"When he began talking about the needle exchange, his sense of social justice, Dave didn't have a neutral gear or a reverse gear," said Lyle Quasim, a friend since 1970. "Dave only had forward gears."
Purchase won tacit approval from then-Police Chief Ray Fjetland, who had his officers observe the exchange but promised not to make drug-paraphernalia arrests. Soon, the program was being copied across the country.
"We were working together on substance-abuse programs, and I was working for the (Tacoma-Pierce County) Health Department," Terry Reid recalled. "Dave would come by the office on his Harley, I'd hop on the back, and we'd go to some cafe and conduct business."
"In August '88, he took it a step further and began the needle exchange," Reid added. "He telephoned me before he went on the street and said, 'If I do this, can you help me get public money?' "
Before long, public health officials endorsed and supported the exchange — and today the Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department runs it.
Purchase went on to found the North American Syringe Exchange and the Point Defiance AIDS Project and was instrumental in programs that began as far away as Australia and Italy.
"David was a public health hero, and a few years ago he received an award from the state health association," Reid said. "He was the instigator, and everyone else was a supporting actor."
Purchase, who was 73 when he died, was also a father, a passionate liberal and a man who overcame major health problems again and again.
"Dad beat cancer 12 years ago, was almost killed in a 1982 motorcycle accident," daughter Becky Purchase Ford said Tuesday. "My brother Dylan probably said it best: He was a medical badass. This wasn't the first time we were called to his deathbed."
A product of the '60s, Purchase proudly carried that era with him the rest of his life.
"We went to high school, then college at UPS together," Dennis Flannigan said. "David became a photographer for Boeing and shot test flights. He talked like a hippie, looked like a hippie and was a hippie.
"I was a guy people liked. David was a guy who changed lives."
Flannigan, a former state lawmaker and Pierce County councilman, remembers Purchase being asked to testify about needle-exchange programs before Congress.
"He was a lovable, determined man, but he told them, 'You're letting people die' by not supporting the effort," Flannigan said. "He challenged authority in such an articulate, measured way, you could not defeat his logic."
His children recall Purchase away from the controversy and spotlight of his public life.
"He worked swing shift for years, and when he'd come home I would wake up and come downstairs and he'd share his Alka-Seltzer with me and laugh at Johnny Carson," Ford said. "We spent a lot of time in the woods, the three of us. Dad would stop on the way to pick up unsweetened grape juice, cheese and fresh-made bread, and we'd go explore Dash Point."
An avid fisherman all his life, Purchase often took son Dylan along, Ford said — both on Purchase's beloved Harley-Davidson.
"My brother was maybe 9 or 10, and they'd gone fishing and they were on my dad's Harley and Dylan was almost falling asleep on the way back. Dad was afraid he'd fall asleep and fall off the back – so he made him sing all the way home to keep him awake," Ford said.
After Purchase was nearly killed by a drunken hit-and-run driver in 1982, he spent months rehabilitating and once vowed to ride his Harley again.
"When he said that, my brother and I turned white," Ford said. "So he bought a roadster instead."
And when Purchase won a settlement years later, he used much of the money — $3,000 — to purchase syringes and begin giving them away.
"I didn't understand what he was up to when I was younger, but we were always taught to fight for what you believe," Ford said. "Dad said you should learn to articulate what you're fighting for."

Thanks to allnatural923 , Piston Honda , neddo and Man Sports for allowing me to run a 8 serving container of GAME DAY!
I received my 8 serving container on Monday and was pretty stoked to test it out. I never tried the old version but the new version was receiving excellent reviews and I was happy to give it a run.
Game Day
MAN Game Day (60 Servings) : Discount Game Day Supplements
I was surprised with a very professional package for an 8 serving sample. The interesting dosage on Game Day is ½ a scoop!! I mean who takes ½ a scoop??
I'll rate everything from 1-10 and adjust as my sample container empties out.
Packaging – 10 Simple and all the information is plain as day. Dosage is clear as day that 1 full scoop is 2 servings.
Smell – 8 had a candy like fruit smell. Very pleasant.
Taste – 8 I have the fruit punch and I don't like fruit punch in general but this was pretty good. Something you could easily use daily.
Mixing -8 mixed well. Had some foam but it dispersed almost 100%. I used 1 scoop in 8 oz. water. (Iknow I double dosed).
The above ratings won't really change so I'll get on to my first dose and how it went.
I used 1 full scoop. I've been using pre workouts since the days of ultimate orange so I was sure I could handle it. I downed my serving on an empty stomach and bounced to the gym. This is a 4:30 am workout I usually need a major kick in the arse for the mid-week gym sessions.
It started to hit me about 20 mins in. I worked chest and arms and by the time I finished doing chest it was all over me. I had great energy and some serious pumps.
As I moved over to start some preacher curls the energy and feeling of being in the zone was very strong. Two sets in my arms felt like they were going to explode.
I was completely jacked. I left with plenty of energy in the tank but I only have 45 mins during the week so no extra sets or cardio.
I will try .5 scoops on Friday and see how things go. I'm thinking even though it's only the first serving that 1 full scoop is going to be great if you need to tear the place apart. ½ scoop for a good workout.
I had no crash and no stomach issues.
Too be continued………………….

SOURCE The Ferraro Law Firm
WASHINGTON, Sept. 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- An annual study released today by The Ferraro Law Firm of SEC disclosures showed that collectively the Fortune 500 companies believe that they have underpaid their corporate income tax by $191.7 billion, an increase of 2.2% from the group's collective tax reserves last year. According to the study, 2012 saw a slight decrease (-.51%) in the profits of the Fortune 500, and Scott Knott, a Tax Partner at The Ferraro Law Firm, said, "if uncertain tax position reserves are trending up at the same time profits are going down, you have to ask if there is a movement to build up reserves for tax underpayments." The Ferraro Law Firm compiles the annual "Ferraro 500" list, which is a reorganization of the Fortune 500 by the size of the companies' Unrecognized Tax Benefit reserve ("Tax Reserve") for uncertain tax positions. The Tax Reserves of the top five companies on this year's list are Exxon Mobil, which set aside $7.663 billion to cover potential taxes; Microsoft, $7.202 billion; J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., $7.158 billion; General Electric, $6.579 billion; and Pfizer, with $6.315 billion. Pfizer bucked the trend of increasing reserves for uncertain tax positions, disclosing that it reduced its Tax Reserve by almost a billion dollars last year.
Gregory Lynam, also a Tax Partner at The Ferraro Law Firm, said, "It also appears many of the companies on the Ferraro 500 are then improperly hiding information behind those reserves from the IRS." As of 2010, corporate taxpayers have been required to file a "Schedule UTP" with their annual tax return that lists and discloses the issues that gave rise to their uncertain tax positions. However, the IRS has discovered that thirty-one percent of last year's Schedule UTP filers submitted incomplete concise descriptions of their uncertain tax positions, said IRS official Thomas Brandt on a July 17, 2013, webcast sponsored by McGladrey LLP. Mr. Lynam also said "the IRS data shows that corporate taxpayers believe that filing an incomplete Schedule UTP will go unnoticed by IRS Exam personnel, making tax whistleblowers that much more important to successful enforcement actions."
Through detailed submissions to the IRS Whistleblower Office, The Ferraro Law Firm's tax lawyers have brought to the U.S. government's attention taxpayers who have collectively underpaid their taxes by more than $100 billion. The IRS established the Whistleblower Office in 2007 to collect information about tax cheats and must, by law, pay a reward of up to 30 percent of the amount collected to the tax whistleblower. In October 2012 one of the firm's clients, an anonymous corporate insider, received a $38 million award from the IRS for disclosing details about a Fortune 500 company's tax underpayments, many of which were uncertain tax positions.
For more information on The Ferraro Law Firm's tax group and tax whistleblower submissions, call 1-800-275-3332 or visit www.tax-whistleblower.com. The full study can be found at http://www.tax-whistleblower.com/ferraro500/

I believe Chihuanime is the best place if you are looking for a quiet time in touch with nature, which was my case. The ladies cook amazing organic meals and are happy to talk about their women association that supports the community of Yohualichan. It is a bumpy twenty minutes away from Cuetzalan and isolated from communication: no internet and no phone signal. But, that was also part of the experience, which I would recommend.

This will be a difficult decision to make and will in a lot of ways be
a sad moment, but to be honest Mafia Scene is no longer the full
active community that it once was and there is the possibility that
we will have to shut down. Of course I know some will say
"what about the downloads and mod discussion"
Well, what discussion?, apart from the spasmodic log in by a minority
of members.. this hardly constitutes an active community, plus MS
was about the community of discussion of other topics other than
just downloads and mods.
Of course should we get a huge influx of activity then..well who

Marcus Thigpen's kick return for a touchdown was a thing of beauty. The only truly nice play the Dolphins made all game.
Let's start with Ryan Tannehill, who has hit a rough patch after a pretty good month of clean, efficient football. 5 interceptions in the past two games, the decision making is starting to go downhill a bit, especially trying to throw to Davone Bess on take offs and double moves, he is not that kind of player! Why is he even being asked to run those routes? Tannehill isn't being helped by his running game, his receivers or his offensive line, but the number one rule is that he has to avoid turnovers, especially with the style of football we have to play due to our lack of talent on offense.The offensive line keeps getting worse each week. They can't run block against bad run defenses, they can't protect Tannehill against a 3 man rush. This unit SHOULD BE a strength with the only question mark being John Jerry. But Jake Long looks like a shell of the perennial Pro Bowler we've come to expect, Richie Incognito is downright terrible, Pouncey has been invisible up the middle, Jerry is nothing to right home about and Martin gets easily pushed back by bullrushers way too often.The running backs hesitate too much. Bush is always looking for the killshot and winds up losing yards. Daniel Thomas's best move is running backwards because he is afraid of getting hit. These guys probably run that way because they know they aren't going to get good blocking, but still, you have to figure out a way to get positive yards.The wide receivers and tight ends cannot beat man to man coverage, which is what the bills played almost exclusively the entire game.Our vaunted run defense has now allowed two consecutive 100 yard rushers after going 22 consecutive games without allowing one. I'm seeing Paul Soliai get pushed around and the linebackers and defensive ends losing contain way too often. The front 7 of this team was supposed to be a strength, but all of a sudden they can't stop the run and we still only have one reliable pass rusher. Cam Wake needs help.Our secondary keeps finding new ways to suck. One game, they can't cover anyone, the next game they get flagged at record pace. The only player making plays in the secondary is Reshad Jones.Coaching - I have to lambast the coaching staff. From the vanilla playcalling to what appears to be a lack of motivation for these players, something is wrong here. This team was on a high early in the season but we've come back down to Earth in a bad way and the coaches don't seem to be getting through to the players. What is worse is that there appear to be no halftime adjustments, or at least ones that work. Yes, the defense played better in the 2nd half, but a lot of that had to do with the Bills going somewhat conservative in their playcalling. Yes, the offense had a touchdown in the 2nd half, but it was bound to happen after 28 drives without one. Joe Philbin and Mike Sherman are supposed to be offensive mind, but against one of the worst defenses in the NFL, they sucked.
This season and the direction it is taking. Early in the year, we were playing close competitive games against good teams and beating teams we were supposed to beat. Now we're getting dominated by bottom dwellers.Not a good sign for the rest of the season.

POUGHKEEPSIE, N.Y. -- Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro is offering select employees of 18 county departments $20,000Ā each to leave the county's employ before Dec. 1.
Employees who are at least 55 years old and have at least 30 years in the state retirement system or are at least 62 years old with 20 or more years in the retirement system will be eligible for the buyout, Molinaro said.
The executive said roughly 150 employees in the following departments could take the buyout: County Executive, District Attorney, Public Defender, Health, Finance, Comptroller, County Attorney, Human Resources, Legislature Clerk, Central Services, Office of Computer Information Services, Emergency Response, Probation and Community Corrections, Mental Hygiene, Social Services, Services for Aging, Veterans and Youth, and Planning and Development.
"If we could realize 50 percent participation, its about $3.5 million in savings to the county in salary and benefits," Molinaro said. "It's our hope that we achieve 50 percent participation."
The Workforce Adjustment Incentive Program, as Molinaro is calling the buyout plan, is designed to help the county close an anticipated $40 million budget in its 2013 budget.
Offering employees a buyout, Molinaro said, will "minimize the impact of layoffs while reducing operational expenses."
If 75 employees take the buyout, as Molinaro hopes, it will cost the county $1.5 million. But he said the county will realize $3 in savings for every $1 in spending for the buyout.
"We continue to scrutinize every dollar, every expense and every cost-saving option to help us overcome a nearly $40 million budget gap," Molinaro said. "This ... is an additional step to transform, reconstruct and right-size Dutchess County government."
Employees interested in taking the buyout must apply by Sept. 4. Each application then will be evaluated to determine whether the employee leaving will result in a savings to the county.
Interested employees deemed eligible for the buyout must leave their job by Nov. 30, Molinaro said, so the county can achieve some savings through the vacant position to help offset the cost of the program.
In July, Ulster County Executive Michael Hein proposed a $12,500 buyout to targeted employees enrolled as Tier 1, 2 or 3 members of the state retirement system.
Like Molinaro, Hein said the program, which still needs legislative approval, is intended to help the county cut spending and avoid layoffs.
Hein said 232 county employees are eligible for his proposed Voluntary Separation Program and that if 10 percent of that number takes the deal, the county will have a net savings of roughly $1 million.
Ulster County employees who want the buyout must apply by Aug. 31 and, if approved, leave their jobs by Dec. 1.

On Thursday, the last day of Chanukah, hundreds gathered at the Marina Roscha Chabad Shul in Moscow for a Seudas Hoda'a, thanking Hashem for the miraculous recovery of Shliach to Derbent, Dagestan Rabbi Ovadia Isakov after he was shot in the chest by a Muslim extremist last summer.
On Motzei Shabbos, Chabad of South Broward, Florida marked Hey Teves with a Farbrengen, led by Rabbi Rafael Tennenhaus.
This year, once again, close to a thousand people attended the annual Menorah lighting in Amsterdam's Dam Square, the most famous square in Holland, located in front of the royal palace.
Anash and Bochurim gathered at Beis Rivka Campus Chomesh for the annual Central Hey Teves Farbrengen.
One of the Rebbes instructions marking Hey Teves was the encouragement to buy Seforim. Honoring this Kehot has been hosting a sale, marking down Seforim by as much as 50% off. Hundreds have been taking advantage in person, with thousands around the world placing their orders by phone or online.
The Rohr Chabad at Franklin & Marshall College offered free rides on a horse-and-buggy with a menorah strapped to its roof last week.
In honor of Hey Teves, Oholei Torah students enjoyed a full program from Grades Pre 1A-8, including: a Seforim Sale, an overview of the Rebbeim's Seforim, a Chinese auction and a special presentation by a group of the eighth grade students who showed special Seforim including an 1800′s edition of Lekutai Torah.
CrownHeights.info and the Lubavitch Archives present a gallery of photos from a Farbrengen in honor of Hey Teves which took place in 770 in the year 5753 (1992).
In honor of Hey Teves the volunteers in the Lubavitcher Yeshiva PTA organized a special fair featuring Seforim and books at greatly discounted prices. Also at the fair was a story hour with Nechamy Segal.
Following the Rebbes directive to buy new Seforim and learn in them, many vendors set up 'booths' in and around 770 and sold a variety of Seforim at greatly discounted prices.
Yudi Ashkenazi (Kfar Chabad, Israel) and Blumi Bloy (Kfar Chabad, Israel)
Chezky Weiss (Chicago, IL) and Zelda Rosenfeld (Crown Heights)
L'chaim will be Sunday evening at 688 Montgomery St.
[between Kingston and Albany Aves.] at 5:00pm
One year ago, on the second day of Chanukah, December 10, 2012, 9-year-old Dovid Geisinsky walked into a room to find his father, Rabbi Yosef Geisinsky, director of Chabad of Great Neck, lying on the floor unconscious.
Temperatures in Crown Heights plunged last night into the single digits, but that did not stop a determined resident from chasing down, barefoot and in pajamas, a burglar he witnessed inside his car.
One person was hurt when the minivan he was driving was struck by an FDNY ambulance that was responding to an emergency. Hatzalah and Shomrim gave assistance, and made a big Kiddush Hashem in the process.
Oholei Torah's younger division, grades Pre-1A through 2nd, held their annual father and son Melava Malka and Farbrengen, which coincided with Hey Teves. The students enjoyed musical entertainment, prizes and a special program in honor of Hey Teves.
Chicago Shliach Rabbi Baruch Hertz, along with his wife Chanie and a few of their children, walks 5.5 miles on Shabbos in order to serve two congregations, one in Lakeview and the other in West Rogers Park. A DNAInfo/Chicago reporter tagged along one Shabbos and prepared an inspiring story on what he witnessed.
With the opening last week of the new Ten Yad Jewish Center in São Paulo, Brazil, the much adored tradition of Chanukah Gelt has taken an enormous leap. Until recently, Ten Yad's acclaimed soup kitchen fed the hungry; now the social services arm of Chabad of São Paulo is providing access to the kinds of benefits that will raise the quality of life for the city's struggling Jewish population.

He will rant and rave while living in a gated community, with armed guards protecting his behind while berating others who also want to protect themselves from crazies like him.Hypocrite.
There´s no gate on the shoreline of MikesTorch Lake estate. And, if he builds one, it better be pretty tall. My friends and I will be able to touch fatboys stuff, from out in the lake.
Just another of the new poliboro.
That´s right, white people--calm down and put away your guns.(BTW, you inner-city gang bangers are free to keep your illegals guns and prey on the rest of us)
You calm down, Michael... and put down taht fork!
Moore and Reid. Looks like the memo called on them to mouth off. That, of course, is exactly what NerØbama will also do when he returns to DC.Blah, blah, blah.We don´t listen to liars.
Micheal Moore, YOU FAT BAS - T_RD!!!My 24 year son´s school-buddy died Christmas after driving from a friend´s house to home.He´d been shot by someone other than WHITE. He´s of European decent, white, and the shooter´s not.So, WHO´S SHOOTING WHO, YOU FAT BAS - T_RD?
Shut up FatBoy
Guess he don´t live in Chicage where shootings go on night after night and mostly from black gangs.
I wonder if Moore has considered how different things would be if black slaves were allowed to own guns. Would they have remained slaves for as long as they did? Or would they have freed themselves? There´s a reason the masters didn´t want their slaves to be armed. Its the same reason the dimocrats don´t want American citizens to be well armed.
Who is this "we" that he´s referring to? Isn´t the fat pig is a Canadian?
I keep waiting for this guy to need emergency medical care at one of the hospitals he has denigrated.
Calm down, fat POS, put away your appendage...you know...that thing you haven´t seen since you were 13.
Michael, does this mean that you will get rid of your armed body guards?
Shut up and go eat another side of beef, you loony tune.
such a small mind in such a large body. Is it the future? It will not matter. I shall not live much longer.
Please tell me why anything this lard-*ss has to say is news. Exactly what is his expertise? Nothing. So, as far as I can tell, the only reason he is quoted is so the masses can laugh at him. Reckon he realizes he is the butt of the joke - always?
Perhaps Moore should visit the South Side of Chicago and talk about white gun violence.
Does anybody pay attention to Michael Moore anymore?
ME: ´Shut Up, Fat Boy, and Put Away The Donuts´There. I fixed it.
#11 - No, he most certainly is NOT Canadian, and I can´t imagine where that rumour might have come from. He´s American.
Does Mikey carry? We know he has bodyguards who do. He needs to tell them to calm down. He also needs to scarf down a couple dozen donuts himself and occupy his piehole that way. The higher his cholesterol shoots, the shorter his time to lecture us grows.
There will never be a day I take orders from Michael Moore. Or even listen to what that putz has to say.
Response:Calm down fat-boy, and put away your jelly-donut.
Nice pelican pouch there, puffy.
Mikey, just how many of the thousands of shootings in Chicago were committed b whites and how many by other ethnic groups? I think that tells the tale about gun usage.
Shut up, fat boy, and stop complaining about your fellow multi-millionaires.
He doesn´t tip, and he doesn´t bathe...
The genocide that´s going on Chicago (strict gun laws) is committed by blacks ON blacks!
Calm down fat boy and put down your cheeseburgers! I swear blaming guns for killing people is like blaming the fork for a fatazz like Moore for being large. Now him being a stupid jackwad is another story. Riddle me this folks. How many armed guards does it take to secure "little" Mikey´s blubberbutt?
Calm down, fatty, and put away your fork.
Since white guys with guns are generally a deterrant to gun deaths, and blacks criminals are killing primarily blacks, the logical conclusion is that Moore is racist.He wants more blacks to be murdered, even if their killers get locked up or killed also.
How does Kathleen put up with and his pounds?
Always remember: Liberal = Hypocrite

It is important to study the Evacuation Plan posted in your building prior to an emergency. Managers and supervisors must communicate these Evacuation Plans with their staff and Instructors must discuss the plan with their students.
All building evacuations will occur when an alarm sounds, or upon notification by a campus authority, or Floor Warden
When the building evacuation alarm is activated during an emergency, leave by the nearest marked exit and alert others to do the same
Assist physically challenged persons to exit the building
Do not use the elevators in case of fire or earthquake
Once outside, proceed to your designated evacuation assembly area (refer to Campus Maps) and remain until an "all clear" signal is given. It is important to keep streets, fire lanes, hydrant areas and walkways clear for emergency vehicles and first responder personnel
Do not return to an evacuated building until it has been established safe by a College official
Evacuation of all or part of the campus grounds will be announced by the Incident Commander, College Administrator or Campus Safety Officer
All persons (students, staff and visitors) are to immediately vacate the site in question and relocate to another part of the grounds or to an off-campus site as directed
Any person with a disability, temporary or permanent, or other condition that would require them to need assistance during an evacuation is considered as having limited mobility
Every individual who is placed on the Limited Mobility Evacuation List must be assured that information provided to building management/staff will be kept confidential and is to be used only to provide safe and quick evacuation in an emergency condition on-campus
Mobility Assistants
During an emergency evacuation Mobility Assistants will assist these individuals. Mobility Assistants should have the knowledge of how to safely evacuate the persons they are assigned to assist with limited mobility (i.e., use of proper lifts and carriers) and ask the person how they can best be assisted
Once the primary destination has been reached (bottom of stairwell), take the person to the appropriate designated evacuation assembly site
The Building Captains and the Floor Wardens shall maintain a current list of individuals with limited mobility needs

Bayside Chatter: Feb. 1
By: Steve Gow for the Lake County News-Chronicle, Lake County News Chronicle
SB Girls' on ice
The last time the Mariner girls and Hibbing met, the result was clear: the Bluejackets won by a score of 7-1.This time, they met in a rescheduled game at Chisholm that proved to be closer-- 3-2 in favor of the Bluejackets as they overcame a 2-0 Mariner lead.
Cora Carter put the Mariners up by one at 6:49 of period two. Two minutes later, Tori Stevens and Rachel Dilley set up Anna Carman for a power play goal. Hibbing replied with two goals by Maddy Roberts and Sarah Fairbanks in the next five minutes for a 2-2 game entering the third period. Miranda Garrelts scored the game winner at 8:50 with an assist from Jessica Marsalla. The Bluejackets outshot the Mariners 39-14 for the game, doing particularly well in the second period with 19 shots to the Mariners' 6. Cassie Swanson finished with 36 stops for the Bay and Amanda Klennert had 12 saves for Hibbing.
The Mariners lost 3-2 at Moose Lake in an identical score from the first time the two teams met in Silver Bay. The difference in the game was a span of 1 minute and 14 seconds midway through the opening period. The Rebels scored three times in this span on a goal from Andrea Youngberg and two from Jessica Bird for a 3-0 lead as they outshot the Mariners 17-6 in the period.
The second period saw Anna Carman score an unassisted goal to make it 3-1. Everly Bauck tipped in an Allison Morris shot to make it 3-2 at 5:52 of the final period. That would be as close as the Mariners would get as the hole they dug for themselves proved too big, despite outshooting the Rebels 24-17 in the last two periods of play. Swanson and Kaitlyn Greene of the Rebels each finished with 28 saves.
The girls begin their playoffs on Thursday. The Mariners will open up with a quarterfinal game versus the Proctor/Hermantown Mirage, the No. 1 seed in section 7A. Hibbing is ranked No.2 and Princeton is No.3, followed by Moose Lake, Eveleth-Gilbert, International Falls and Chisago Lakes.
The Storm plays this week
The Storm's game with Eveleth-Gilbert has been rescheduled for Feb. 5.
This and that in high school sports standings
The Mounds View girls remain the only unbeaten high school hockey team in the state and there remain four unbeaten boys' basketball teams: Upsala, Belgrade-Brooten-Elrosa in A, Austin in AAA and Brainerd in AAAA. For the girls there are also four left: Parkers Prairie and Win-E-Mac in A, Braham in AA and Fergus Falls in AAA.
Peewee hockey
The PeeWee B1 rankings on Jan. 24 had Two Harbors at ninth and Silver Bay at twentieth. Two Harbors defeated Silver Bay 7-2 in a rematch at Silver Bay. The game was 2-2 halfway thru the third period.
After watching a lot of players trying to continuously stickhandle their way thru three, four or five defenders without taking a shot, it's time to once again repeat a quote from a famous goal scorer named Wayne Gretzky: "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take."

Social Enterprise
What is social enterprise?
Driven by a need to tackle social and/or environmental issues in new and creative ways, social enterprises are organisations that trade goods and services to create social change rather than personal financial return.
Not only can social enterprise be used to define an organisation, it can describe an activity; e.g. a charity can carry out social enterprise activity as part of the funding mix, but the charity would not necessarily be defined as a social enterprise itself.
There is more information on social enterprise in the Social Enterprise FAQs.
Why is social enterprise important?
The easy answer for much of the traditional charity, community and voluntary sectors is to widen the funding mix and provide cash, activities and/or services to meet needs that are difficult to get funding for.
This is not the only reason though. We operate in an increasingly dynamic environment. Needs change, funding bodies find new interests, new opportunities arise and competition is increasing. You cannot control any of these but using enterprise skills you can evaluate and react to opportunities effectively. Proper information gathering and analysis will drive up the quality of decision making and reduce risk.
Where can I get help?
For help on any aspect of social enterprise, contact Sue Dovey or Liz Donegan at
Community Action Hampshire. Beaconsfield House
Andover Road

I was wondering what happens to songs that don't get the reviews(in the Rock Band Network) that it needs to be published for ex. Job For A Cowboy - Unfurling A Darkened Gospel
That's up to the submitter. They can just put it back up. If it failed peer review for a reason I would think they would make the proper changes first.
I Am King Tony - "Stereo Stereo" available on RBN!
IAmKingTony @ Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter
o, okay thanks I thought that some of the song that are not rated would be excluded from the game's store
Kind of nice to hear something failed. It's good to see that people are really looking into each song and giving solid feedback.
+1 for playtesters.
Yeah just because a few songs with issues manage to sneak out doesn't mean the testers aren't doing their jobs.
There are some songs on their tenth+ revision before they make it to the store.
A failed song doesn't mean that it is done and never comes back.
It just means that version of the song isn't ready yet. It gets changed, a new version is put up, and it goes through the process again.
Unless an author just outright gives up on making changes, every song submitted(as long as it doesn't have legal issues), will eventually end up in the store.
For the most part.
Don't get me wrong, I never doubted you guys. I just worded that wrong. I have the utmost respect for every last playtester and author. I just never actually heard about any song failing the process. It's just nice to actually hear a little more about what's going on over there.
Again though, I didn't mean to offend you guys, you're doing some really awesome work!

[quote author="bjunt4prez"]Question, which day and at what time does Hallucinogen and Shpongle DJ play?
Another question, does a ticket get 1 person in, or 1 car in? I went to Underground Sound 2 and we just showed up and the guys let me and my buddy in for like 40 bucks ... they didn't even care. We could have easily gotten in for free, or so it seemed at the time.
Oh and one more question .... wtf is Shpongle DJ Set? Would it be simon? Why don't they just throw raja on a plane and let Shpongle onto the bill.
I'm not bitching because Shpongle and the best light show on Earth will be absolute euphoria. When I went to UGS2, the light show during Infected Mushroom was super intense. I'm sure it'll be WAY better with Shpongle.
It is 50$ per person presale (and 60$ at the gate) so order a presale ticket ASAP. There will also be a charge of 10$ for each car. I know, people are annoyed by this, but they are doing it to try and promote carpooling, and keep people from leaving and coming back during the day. Shpongle DJ set is Simon with his decks and mixer etc, this is not LIVE Shpongle unfortunately. I talked to Tom Foolery, and he said that Raja wanted to stay in Tokyo one more day or something, thats why hes not coming. If you thought the light show at ugs2 was nice, it was nothing compared to ugs3, and if you thought ugs3 was intense, this year should rock the socks off anything formally seen in the midwest
Timeslots are still in the works I believe.
only a few more weeks!!!!!!
