Like her "Unstoppable" co-stars Denzel Washington and Chris Pine, Rosario Dawson put in serious time and research to prepare for her role in the Tony Scott thriller about a runaway train. Dawson says she had the opportunity to meet with a real-life inspiration for her character: a female rail-yard manager.
"We had a great opportunity, we found this amazing woman, Mary Alexander," Dawson recently told MTV News. Dawson said she got to pick Alexander's brain, and peppered her with questions about proper rail-yard vernacular, protocol and technical terminology.
In the film, opening Friday, Dawson plays Connie, a headstrong rail-yard manager who, along with Pine and Washington's characters , goes up against her corporate bosses in an attempt to stop a train loaded with explosive chemicals from careening into a small town.
"To do that and know it was a woman who went through it, I was like, 'How did you work your way up? What did that feel like?' " she recalled asking Alexander. "You get those obvious clichéd things about a woman working in a men's industry, but you also get this [explanation]: 'Listen, this is a high-stakes situation, this doesn't happen every day but when it does, you want capable people to be there.'
"To be someone composed and a leader in that, that's what I wanted Connie to be," Dawson added. "Not just a cool, spunky woman or a bitchy aggressive woman, but just the right person for the job."
Check out everything we've got on "Unstoppable."

The Mobile World Congress rumors are flying, and we won't see them start to slow down before the event begins next week.
Sony has released a short video teaser for their MWC event, which says that we'll see "something extraordinary" on Feb. 24. We should expect to see either the Xperia Z2 smartphone or the Z2 tablet— if we see both, then we wouldn't be surprised either.
Stay tuned for live updates on every bit of information coming out of MWC in Barcelona next week. Hit the break for Sony's video below.

Behind little-used Pilittere and surging Montero, Yankees roll to fourth straight win
MOOSIC - What P.J. Pilittere is asked to do, he admits, isn't easy.
He'd be less than honest if he claimed playing as sparingly as he has helps make him viable as an offensive threat. He'd be lying, too, if he said hitting was as simple as he made it look Sunday afternoon.
Preparation is what gets a backup player to that level. Against Rochester, Pilittere's preparation got the Yankees off to a great start.
Pilittere had three hits in the first four innings, and Jesus Montero drilled a two-run, tie-breaking homer in the fourth inning that sent the Yankees on their way to an 8-4 win over the Red Wings at PNC Field.
Before Sunday, Pilittere had played in five games in the last eight days.
But those five games were the only ones he appeared in this month. He finished 3 for 4 with a walk, two RBIs and a pair of runs scored for a Yankees team that is seeing its offense round into shape over the last five games, and in his last seven games, Pilittere is 11 for 24.
"I just have to keep working," he said. "Whether I'm in the lineup or not should not determine if I'm doing early work in the cage, or early work off the tee or anything like that.
"I try to take (batting practice) as seriously as I can, because it might be my game. I've got to be ready for anything."
On Sunday, the offensive stars were the catcher who plays pretty much every night and the one who has clawed for every at-bat he got - and has earned more of them lately by staying hot.
Pilittere knocked in a run in both the first and third innings, helping the Yankees grab a 4-1 lead after three innings against Rochester starter Anthony Swarzak.
But when veteran D'Angelo Jimenez - a former Yankees infielder - blasted a 3-0 pitch over the right-center field wall for a three-run homer against pitcher Zach McAllister in the fourth inning to make it 4-4, it was the Yankees' more recognizable catcher who took the lead right back for them.
With one out and after Eduardo Nunez drew a walk, Montero reached out over the plate and yanked a Swarzak curveball over the wall in left field to make it 6-4. It was Montero's second homer in as many days, and after a horrid slump dropped his batting average to .216 on June 10, a 9 for 18 string over the last four games has him over the .250 mark.
When Eric Bruntlett knocked in his third run of the game in the sixth inning - capping a 3 for 5 day - it was clear the Yankees were en route to another win.
"Right now, we're doing a really good job with our hitting and our defense," Montero said. "It has been a lot of good things. Today, everyone it. It is really helping the pitchers."
Outside of Jimenez's homer and Jose Morales' booming RBI double to center field in the second inning, the Red Wings struggled to even square up a pitch against McAllister.
The beneficiary of the latest scoring outburst, McAllister allowed four runs in seven innings, but Rochester collected just five hits. McAllister struck out five, walked only one and as the innings passed, developed command of all four of his pitches before handing the ball to Jason Hirsh to start the eighth.
"You have a feeling before you go out there what you've got working," McAllister said. "Obviously, it's always nice if everything is working. Early on, my curve wasn't working. It got better as the game went on, same with the slider."
With the win, the Yankees improved to 11 games over .500 - their highest point since May 29 - and with Syracuse's loss to Pawtucket, the Yanks moved one-half game ahead of the Chiefs and into first place in the International League North Division.
Perhaps most importantly, the offense has produced 29 runs in its last five games - and that includes a 2-1 win Saturday night.
As Pilittere said, confidence is burgeoning as players like himself and Bruntlett and Montero are settling into their roles.
For a pitcher that has had to navigate the season without much run support, that's the best possible feeling.
"It's always nice to feel that, sometimes, you can go out there and not be worried about giving up one run and hoping you can come back," McAllister said. "Everyone in this clubhouse has confidence. Once everyone keeps building confidence, it's just going to keep rolling over. The pitchers are going to be even better. The hitters are going to be even better, too."

Mechanical engineering is the second oldest of the engineering professions and has the largest enrollment of students in the United States. Mechanical engineering is a very broad field which includes many areas of study such as refrigeration, air conditioning, energy conversion, nuclear engineering, biomedical engineering, transportation equipment engineering and industrial engineering. Mechanical engineers are employed in design, operations, sales, energy conservation, research, and management. A mechanical engineering education is an excellent background for a career in the military, government, business, or other professions such as law and medicine.
The mechanical engineering curriculum at VMI has two main branches: one branch consists of courses related to energy; the other branch has courses which are related to structures and motion in mechanical systems. The curriculum provides a broad background with courses in science, mathematics, liberal arts, and all of the engineering sciences. Extensive use is made of the computer facilities at VMI.
The mission of the Mechanical Engineering Department is to prepare graduates for graduate studies, for a professional engineering career, or for a career in the military through a continually improving curriculum of courses in engineering, related sciences, mathematics, and humanities which will allow the student to possess:
Educational Objective 1
Enable the student to develop the ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems in both the thermal/fluids, mechanical design and related areas.
Supporting Program Outcomes:
Educational Objective 2
Enable the student to develop the professional skills and awareness necessary to responsibly practice engineering in a global and societal context.
Laboratory facilities consist of: Computer-aided Design and Engineering Lab; Energy Lab; Computation Lab; Instrumentation Lab; Manufacturing and Robotics Lab; Materials Lab. Laboratories are designed as an extension of classroom work and provide technological experiments considered important to the engineering student. Cadets are provided practical hands-on experience on modern equipment. The department strongly emphasizes the use of computers for problem solving. A programming language is taught using microcomputers, and computer-aided drafting (CAD) is taught as a companion element in the drawing course. Both programming and CAD, as well as other computer applications, become an integral part of most courses taught in the department.
The Mechanical Engineering Department has been in existence since 1941 as a service department to the other engineering departments. The new curriculum, started in 1982, produced its first graduates in May 1985 and is accredited by ABET, Inc. The department sponsors a student section of the ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers). Participation in professional activities is emphasized. Cadets are required to take the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) examination as a graduation requirement during their first class year so that in the future they can become registered Professional Engineers.
Applicants considering mechanical engineering as a choice of major may best prepare in high school by taking the full college preparatory program augmented by as many mathematics and science courses as their schedules permit. Courses in engineering drawing (drafting) and computer programming are also recommended, but they should not be taken in lieu of elements of the college preparatory sequence.
Electives are chosen by the cadet in consultation with the faculty adviser and subject to the distribution shown below.TECHNICAL ELECTIVES
Nine (9) hours minimum course work selected from ME, CE, EE, CS, MA, PY, CH, or BI which contribute to the quality of the cadet's program. Selection of appropriate courses must be approved by the adviser in consultation with the mechanical engineering department head.
Six (6) hours must be selected from the approved list of Civilization and Cultures courses.
A three (3) credit-hour course selected from 200-level or higher. Courses in the 100-level may be selected in Modern Languages.
A three (3) credit-hour course selected from 200 level mathematics (or higher) or an approved science course from BI, CH, or PY

Southern Illinois Edges UMass, 65-63
Dec. 21, 1999
BAYAMON, Puerto Rico (AP) - Ricky Collum scored 16 points and Southern Illinois overcame a dreadful start to beat Massachusetts 65-63 Tuesday night in the opening round of the Puerto Rico Holiday Classic.
The Salukis (4-4), who missed 15 of their first 16 shots in falling behind 18-4, will play the winner of the game between No. 11 Tennessee and American University-Puerto Rico in Wednesday's semifinals.
Collum snapped Southern Illinois out of its shooting funk with a 3-pointer, his first of three in the opening half. A 3-pointer by Brandon Mells with 4:58 left in the first half gave the Salukis a 28-26 lead.
Southern Illinois opened the second half with an 11-3 run for a 45-37 lead and it reached 10 points twice, the second time at 51-41 on two free throws by Collum with 12:02 to play.
The Minutemen (5-4) then scored seven straight points. A tough baseline jumper by Mells gave Southern Illinois a 65-60 lead with 1:04 to play. Monty Mack was fouled taking a 3-pointer 12 seconds later and made all three free throws to bring the Minutemen within two.
Massachusetts got the ball back on a turnover by Kent Williams with 22 seconds to play. After a timeout, Shannon Crooks missed a driving jumper in the lane with six seconds left. Chris Thunell of Southern Illinois missed two free throws with four seconds left but Crooks' heave from just inside midcourt was off the mark.
Collum finished 4-for-7 from 3-point range.
Mells finished with nine points for the Salukis, who finished 21-for-65 from the field (32.3 percent), but had a 46-35 rebound advantage. Thunell was just 1-for-10 from the field but had 10 rebounds.
Chris Kirkland had 18 points for Massachusetts, which committed 24
turnovers, and Mack finished with 17.

There is still no ability to edit.. This message box where i am typing this message is small and those with visual disabilities may have problems entering a new post. I could continue you have kept so many problems from the original design. It didnt just need tweeking but a total redesign from the ground up.
I'm afraid a few smilies and slightly different thread design doesnt constitute a redesign in my book.. When there are so many well designed bulletin board systems I find it strange that all the PRTC can do is try and adapt an already badly designed board.
I'd be interested to know how much this redesign cost you. Also be interested to know if this board conforms to guidelines on accessibility for the partially sighted.

2001 Mercedes-Benz S600 (6 Reviews)
This is a high quality automobile. It is a rocket of a sedan and a lot of fun to drive. It runs dead silent and so smooth and quiet I am constantly checking the tach at stoplights, to see if engine is running. Very comfortable and driver friendly for long trips or dailey driver. The car has issues with the ABS suspension and I am of the opinion the Factory should volunteer a complete recall with R&R on these cars. Manfacturer design id FLAWED. It works, but is overly fragile. HOWEVER, it is worth overlooking for the rest of this cars positive features. If you want to $urvive this car financially, stay AWAY from the dealers. Most all of the issues have become known, and "remanufacturers" have stepped in with quality rebuilds and 30% - 50% of list. Used parts are OK in my book as well, if they are pre-tested. USE ONLY TOP PREMIUM FUEL and ALL SYNTHETIC OILS and FLUIDS. Change all often. DO NOT "horse" the transmission or rearend with burnouts. The car WILL self destruct in minutes... do not buy a used one from a "younger person" for this reason... If it doesn't have factory wheel on it... PASS.
its a piece of junk
MB should be ashame or robbing people without a gun, this car has been the worse of the worse, two coil packs, and then a engine, and then alternator, and the abc system is down know which was recall i do not have any more money to put in this lemon i am retired i have to live also all new plugs and new computer and new starter, fuel pump i could go on and on this is the worse benz i ever own i hhave a 1983 500 sel not a problem at all what the hect is wrong with these i wish i had never bought this cancer i will start a campaign to discredit allthese cars not quality made as the older ones i will see if i can get some help on this abc system and wii get rid of it wright away, and just drive my 1983. it is so sad they rob you when you buy and the dealers continue to blood suck you as long as you let them, i would love to tell the world about this car only buy to burn or you will be broke if you are rich, burn the car and keep your cash i paid for my lesson and you can not get any help at all from the car maker its a damn shame blood suckers i am very disapointed whith this car like the whole economy do not buy this junk they are putting out i will buy american, not a benz thanks for letting me tell you like it is
This car was great until the warranty ran out! We only have 51k on our 02, and it has cost me 10k in the past few months. For the money we spent on this car we are disgusted with the repair cost. The dome light is $1,100, the coil packs, and module just cost $5,200!!! I think Mercedes should give us a SERIOUS credit for trade in on a Benz that isn't a complete JOKE!! They built a car with their brand name that is a failure. If it didn't say Benz none of us suckers would have spent well over $100k. They really need to do something for the original purchasers.
Absolutely stunning vehicle! I do have empathy for those who abuse or fail to properly maintain such an amazing vehicle but the only problem i've ever had with her is the Wiring Harnesses. All of which have been replaced recently at an expense of almost 10k. Once they work out that problem the car will be absolutely amazing!
This car has a serious problem with their electronic systems. I am having a continuous problems with sensors. Serious problem with cars suspension and automatic balance system. I spent close to $30,000 for the repair cost and still have the problems.

This Rotten Week: Predicting Getaway, Closed Circuit And One Direction Reviews
By Doug Norrie 2013-08-25 04:55:00 comments
Recapping a few weeks ago:
These are a bit old so I wont spend too much time breaking down these guesses. All in all, it was a strong week with: Elysium (Predicted: 49% Actual: 69%)
Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters (Predicted: 36% Actual: 38%)
Were the Millers (Predicted: 52% Actual: 47%)
Two out of three were within five percent with Elysium representing a significant miss. I say significant (even though it wasnt my worst ever, far from it) because I had the tenor completely wrong. Its one thing to be off on a prediction when I say awful and critics say merely bad. Its another to say below average and critics reply actually pretty darnn good. Those are the predictions that eat at me a bit. I should have had a bit more trust in Blomkamp.
The other two films represent nice additions to the resume. Nice to add some more wins. There were a bunch of other flicks that Im sure I would have been close, if not dead on, had I made the predictions. Regardless, Im back from vacation and ready to get back to work.
Next time around Riddick is back for a little Labor Day fun. Its going to be a Rotten Week!

SAN ANTONIO – Australian Steven Bowditch, who is ranked 339th in the world, leads after two rounds of the Valero Texas Open at TPC San Antonio.
Bowditch shot a 5-under 67 Friday and was at 8 under after 36 holes.
Bowditch holed out from 83 yards for an eagle on the par-4 12th hole. The 30-year-old topped the leaderboard at the end of a round for the first time in his PGA Tour career.
"My wedge shots have been pretty good," he said. "I was trying to hit (the one on No. 12) a little past the pin and hope it came back to a reasonable distance. Got lucky."

Bowditch closed the round with a double bogey on the par-4 ninth, taking two chips to get out of heavy rough.
Chad Collins (66) and rookie Andrew Loupe (70) were a stroke off the lead.
Michael Putnam (71) of University Place was tied for 25th at 1 under. As for former Washington Huskies, Alex Prugh (73) of Spokane was tied for 33rd at even par and Richard H. Lee (75) was tied for 69th at 3 over.
Players at 4-over 148 and worse for 36 holes missed the cut, a group that included Kyle Stanley (74-75—149) of Gig Harbor.
Phil Mickelson, ranked fifth in the world, made the cut on the number. He blasted out of a greenside water hazard to 5 feet to set up a birdie on the final hole.
Mickelson (70) was in a stream that runs in front of the 18th green after attempting to reach the par-5 hole in two from 288 yards with a 3-wood.
"I needed to make a birdie to have a chance at playing tomorrow," Mickelson said. "Fortunately, barely went in, and it looked like the water overlapped the grass. It was not that hard of a shot."
Mickelson has struggled this year and entered the Texas Open for the first time in 22 years to put his game under competitive conditions as a preparation for the Masters, which starts April 10 at Augusta National in Georgia. He knew he had a chance to make the cut, even after a bogey on No. 15 dropped him to 3 over.
"I was on the green for five minutes and (the 3-over score) went from 74th to 71st in five minutes," Mickelson said, "so I figured that 3 over had a pretty good chance of making it because the scores were coming back."
On the 18th, Mickelson pulled off his left shoe and rolled up that pants leg and gave it a shot with his foot in the water.
"It's important that I get more mentally into the round, like I did today," said Mickelson, who shot an opening-round 77. "Yesterday, I was very sloppy. I like the way I'm driving the ball. My speed is back. My back feels great. My body feels great, and I'm able to hit the ball hard again."
Carter sets record in LPGA event
CARLSBAD, Calif. – Dori Carter shot an 8-under 64 to set the course record at Aviara and lead after two rounds of the LPGA Kia Classic.
Carter, who played college golf at Mississippi, is winless in 44 starts on the LPGA Tour. She had 11 birdies and three bogeys in the second round and was at 10 under for a two-stroke lead over Stacy Lewis (66) and Cristie Kerr (68).
Former Washington State player Kim Welch (80-76—156) missed the cut.
"No matter what happens this weekend, I can't believe I'm here," Carter said. "This is my first time (leading after a round). I mean, this is an experience for me. It's kind of like I can't lose. … I have no reason to be uptight or anything because this is my first time. I'm OK with that."

Good point - however the use of the aggregate functions in group by or having clauses would become quite unwieldy if you had to clone your case statement several times in the query. Better to express it once in the where clause, no?
>> i.e. if there is one null the avg() is null.
I can only think of the case where you do not want to emit an avg() if any of the tuples hold null - sort of an integrity issue. Of course a rigid constraint like this can be managed in many other ways with DDL and I would always insist that approach be the 80% of a solution. However there is always the practical possibility that those constraints might fail on occasion and at that point it would seem an "unmanaged" avg() producing a null result might be useful to signal an error.

Yep - especially if he is writing SQL queries without knowing how they function. Of course this is a trivial issue that industry types would be able to adapt to quite easily. What I am more interested in is the uglier ones or analysing the risk to the existing code that is out there.

I always allow for the best intentions of mice and men to reduce that from certainty (aka 1.00).

True - either the current or proposed behaviour is manageable if you know which is in place. To me the latter has a degree more purity and so is desirable. But adopting it would have radical effects on many other null treatments - some of which may not be so palatable.

Quitting the race
Education | Union opposition and quality concerns drive several states to resist an innovative federal education competition
You walk into a classroom and the students aren't engaged. They're passing notes, they're not on the right page, they're not paying attention. The teacher is not calling on different students or allowing enough time for students to answer after she asks a question. Her lesson plans are disorganized. She's not stopping disruptive behavior. She's not starting class on time or she's ending too soon. She's not moving ahead students who have mastered the content. She's not helping students who are behind.
This is how Alexis Tibbetts, superintendent of Okaloosa County Schools in Florida, said she can spot a bad teacher-through simple classroom observation. And then, of course, there are test scores. A teacher's job is to help students learn, said Tibbetts: "That's your job-to increase student skills in reading, math, science." If students don't show gains in learning, then their teacher isn't doing the job.
When the Florida legislature was debating a bill that would reform teacher tenure law, Tibbetts told a state Senate committee about the difficulty of firing an incompetent teacher. It takes three years-from the time she noticed the teacher was having problems to the firing. First she had to set up an improvement team including two other teachers and a district official. Those teachers had to take time out of their schedules, which they would have used for class prep, to observe the struggling teacher, document what they saw, and meet with her once a month. The union has to agree that the teacher needs improvement. More meetings, more documentation for a full three years before the teacher goes. Meanwhile, every year this goes by, Tibbetts said, "These same teachers are teaching 140 kids. Every year you have to decide, would you want one of your kids to be in one of these people's classes?"
This question conflicted the Florida state government as it struggled to reform its laws to win a hefty federal education grant. That grant program, called Race to the Top (RTTT), is prompting states across the country to face such questions as they compete for a share of $4.35 billion.
The money from RTTT comes with a price. The application emphasizes that states adopt internationally benchmarked standards; build a data system that measures student success and gives educators ways to improve; work to find, train, keep, and reward effective educators; and aggressively turn around low-achieving schools. Some states poured thousands of hours and dozens of staff members into writing applications that were hundreds of pages long. But in Phase 1 of the competition, only Delaware and Tennessee received a cent for the effort. States had until June 1 to apply in Phase 2, and some states balked. Ten states opted out in Phase 1 and several states that lost in Phase 1 have decided not to reapply.
Some states don't apply because they don't think they can win. Others don't want to win at all. Indiana belongs in the first category, blaming unions for its first failed application. RTTT favors plans that have strong union support for reform, and reviewers criticized Indiana's application for lacking it.
In April, Indiana Department of Education Superintendent Tony Bennett and the Indiana State Teachers Union (ISTA) brawled over reapplying. Bennett requested union support for five proposals, two of which especially rankled union leaders: requiring 51 percent of teacher evaluations to be based on student growth data, and requiring the evaluation to be a part of hiring processes. Bennett also issued an ultimatum: If the union didn't unequivocally support these proposals, the state would not apply in Phase 2. He gave the ISTA one week to reply.
Six days later, ISTA president Nate Schnellenberger shot back that the ISTA could not support the proposals, that the application needed a major reworking instead of minor changes, and that it would be happy to collaborate in a "meaningful discussion." Bennett then invited Schnellenberger and Indiana Federation of Teachers president Rick Muir-without their staff-to meet with him in his office. He also invited the media.
Schnellenberger refused to come. In a letter he said the plan took an "adversarial tone . . . toward teachers" and that the union would not attend "a media event arranged for the purpose of strong-arming the ISTA." He later told me, "To me that's a media circus." Creating a winning application would take days, not hours, he said: "For [Bennett] not to recognize that tells me he wasn't really serious about doing that. He was just looking for a scapegoat."
Bennett then announced that Indiana was dropping out of the race because if it couldn't get union support, its application wouldn't succeed. Bennett told me, "The federal government is speaking directly to the need for states to engage in bold reforms. In order to make a case to get fed money and have bold reforms, one of two things has to be present. You either have to have a legislative framework in your state that affords you the opportunity to make those bold reforms, or in the absence of that you have to have tremendous union buy-in. If you have both you're in great shape. You need to have one or the other. We have neither."
Minnesota also has neither. Only one in 10 unions signed on to Minnesota's RTTT plan, so the Education Department and Gov. Tim Pawlenty looked to the legislature to implement reform. They wanted the legislature to approve alternative teacher licensing routes and implement a statewide evaluation system for effective teachers. When I talked with Bill Walsh, director of communications for the Education Department, the House was balking. "It's pretty black and white. It's not a negotiation. It's an application for a grant," Walsh said. "You either meet the criteria or you don't." On May 19, Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty announced that the state would not be applying. He blamed the legislature for getting "stuck in pit row" and failing to pass an education reform bill. He said teachers unions were "stopping any real reform."
Some states, though, are not applying because they think they are doing fine without federal help. "This program is not a 'race to the top.' It's a spring to the middle-to mediocrity," said Texas Gov. Rick Perry at a press conference in January. He called RTTT "a tangle of red tape . . . a legislative sleight of hand" and said that compliance costs would reach $3 billion for Texas. Education Commissioner Robert Scott said he was at first excited about some of the reforms required in the application. "Then we got this," he said, holding up the application and guidelines-two sheaves of paper-clipped papers, several inches thick. He said, "This grant application is essentially a Trojan horse-designed for us to take the money and then hand over our control." Virginia didn't apply for similar reasons. To be competitive for the grant, wrote Gov. Bob McDonnell, "We would have to lower our standards. This we cannot do."
Alaskan officials were also leery of adopting national standards. In Alaska and North Dakota, officials said the reforms just didn't work for their rural states-where some schools have as many students as you can count on a hand, and teacher recruitment is difficult.
North Dakota has an independent bent, said Wayne Sanstead, North Dakota's state superintendent: "We collaborate and work together but many times we don't look to the federal government to solve our problems." North Dakota has no charter schools (one of the reforms RTTT strongly favors), and Sanstead says the state doesn't want any. Some communities can't support a charter school since they have just a few students. "The thinking is that we'll do better operating in our own fashion," Sanstead said. Alaskan officials said the same.
Then there's also the fact that completing the application is time-consuming and expensive. Colorado, for example, spent 5,000 hours completing a failed application. Eric Fry, public information officer for the Alaska Department of Education, said Alaska would have to spend $1,000 a person to fly education experts into Anchorage and a total of $500,000 just to apply. "That's a huge amount of money for us," he said. "We have to ask our legislature just to get a few content specialists and they think twice about this. . . . Do we want to gamble $500,000 of the public's money on a grant we really thought we were unlikely to win?" The maximum amount Texas could win-$700 million-would run the Texas school system for just two days, said Scott.
Andy Smarick, deputy assistant secretary of education in the Bush administration and now a fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, said to take some states' excuses with skepticism. He said states have a long history of claiming that citizens aren't demanding charter schools when the reality is that bad legislation discourages such schools-by giving insufficient funding or barring them from convenient facilities. Yes, Alaska has only 23 charter schools, but a Center for Education Reform ranking gives the state a "D" grade for its unwelcoming charter school laws. The RTTT application also allows for flexibility, Smarick said, so that rural states can implement reforms that work for them.
Most of the other states that didn't apply in Phase 1-Mississippi, Maine, Vermont, Nevada-said they wanted to pass reform first to strengthen their application. But reform has been sluggish. Maryland increased its teacher tenure wait from two years to three years-a mild move. Other states have made no moves at all. Vermont and Maine still have no charter school legislation and Vermont didn't apply in Phase 2. "It's not like they've gone on a binge of reform activity," said Smarick. "As a matter of fact, I can't point to any major activities that they did do."
Even if states do not get the money, some educators want to make sure reform does not fall by the wayside. Mary Cathryn Ricker, president of the St. Paul Federation of Teachers and one of the few union leaders who did sign on to Minnesota's application, said she wants to keep talking: "I'm still really interested in having the conversations because if they're good ideas they can live beyond Race to the Top, even if at the end of the day they say, 'That's interesting, Mary Cathryn, but that's not an idea that will fit with Race to the Top.'. . . Whatever you do let's keep talking about the ways to better meet the needs of kids."

NEW YORK — Alex Galchenyuk tipped in a pass at the right post 1:12 into overtime, and the Montreal Canadiens overcame a late tying goal and beat the New York Rangers 3-2 in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals Thursday night.
Montreal cut New York's series lead to 2-1 and can tie it Sunday night at Madison Square Garden before heading home for Game 5.
Galchenyuk, playing only his second game of these playoffs after returning from an injury, deflected Tomas Plekanec's feed to win it.
"To be honest, I have no idea what happened," Galchenyuk said. "I was going to the net and (Plekanec) hit the puck. He put it on net and it bounced off my stick or hit me. It went in, and the celebration started from there."

New York had its five-game winning streak snapped, and its run of six straight victories over the Canadiens also ended. The Rangers fell to 1-1 in overtime in these playoffs. The Canadiens are 3-1.
"We played really well, but we just have to forget about it, move on and get ready for the next one," Rangers goalie Henrik Lundqvist said.
Montreal was poised to win it in regulation after Danny Briere scored with 3:02 left in the third, but Kreider matched him when his shot hit the sliding right skate of Canadiens defenseman Alexei Emelin in the crease and caromed past Tokarski, who thrust his head upward in disgust as Madison Square Garden shook.
Briere's goal was also aided by an opposing defenseman, as Ryan McDonagh nudged the puck past Lundqvist.
Defenseman Andrei Markov tied it at 1 for the Canadiens in the second period after Carl Hagelin staked New York to the lead in the first.
• The New York Islanders agreed to a four-year contract with goaltender Jaroslav Halak.

Bankruptcy Law
Bankruptcy Law Questions? Ask a Bankruptcy Lawyer Now.
Hi JACustomer,Given the information you provided - 1) Your Bankruptcy filing will not affect her mortgage. In other words, the mortgage cannot "call in" the mortgage if you file a Bankruptcy.2) Your Bankruptcy filing will not create grounds for changing the divorce decree or property distribution.3) You cannot re-affirm a mortgage that is not in your name.
I think this is what you wanted to know. If not, please let me know.
Thank you!
When you said the mortgage was in her name, I assumed it was not in your name.
Is the mortgage in your name also?
Your Bankruptcy filing will not affect the mortgage because it is not in your name. In fact, there is no reason for the mortgage company to know you filed, as the mortgage company would not be included as a creditor on your Bankruptcy paperwork.
You have no responsibility to the mortgage company, so there is nothing to discharge.
Additionally, if you no longer want to pay the mortgage, your obligation to pay - per your divorce decree - can also be discharged. This means you would not be in violation of the divorce decree.
What you described is a common scenario. Your ex-wife's attorney should have set it up so that you had to pay your ex-wife directly. If this had been done - and many divorce attorneys do not know enough about Bankrutpcy Law to properly protect their clients - your obligation to pay the mortgage would not have been dischargeable. Bankruptcy Stat. 523(a)(15).
(Of course, if you do stop paying the mortgage, the house will be subject to foreclosure.)

Lesen ist für den Geist das, was Sport für den Körper ist." von Joseph Addison

Ein sonniges Hallo an alle Mitglieder ! Nun sind wir schon über 100, toll. Ich wünsche Euch viel Spaß beim Training. Sportliche Grüsse aus dem Rhein-Main-Gebiet
Evidence continues to mount underscoring the superiority of HIIT exercise protocols in improving health in a variety of ways. Dr. Jonathan Little at the University of British Columbia has recently shown that HIIT is more effective at lowering high blood sugar for type II diabetics than continuous duration aerobic routines. Dr. Little has shown that 75 minutes of HIIT per week is more effective than 150 minutes weekly of the moderate intensity continuous duration exercise recommended by the American Diabetes Association. Happily, not many of us here need to be concerned with exercising to combat diabetes. But the encouraging implication of Dr. Little's research may be of interest. Presumably if HIIT lowers blood sugar for full-fledged type II diabetics, it is also superior in lowering blood sugar and combatting metabolic syndrome in non-diabetics. HIIT works.

A funeral for a North Carolina National Guard soldier killed last week in Iraq is planned for Wednesday.
The obituary of 39-year-old Spc. Robert L. Bittiker of Jacksonville says he will be buried Wednesday morning. The service will be held at Jones Funeral Home in Jacksonville and he will be buried with military honors.
Bittiker and three other soldiers were in a vehicle that was hit by the roadside bomb June 29 in Baghdad. The soldiers were members
of the National Guard's 120th Combined Arms Battalion in Wilmington.
His obituary said Bittiker enlisted in the National Guard in
1990 and previously served in Bosnia and Iraq. He worked for Morton Trucking Company and owned a taxi in Jacksonville.
Previous Story
Four members of a North Carolina National Guard unit, based in Jacksonville, have been killed in Iraq.
The flag at the National Guard Armory in Jacksonville is flying at half-staff.
The four members belong to A Company, 120th Combined Arms Battalion and died in an attack Monday.
The National Guard identified them as Edward Chester Kramer, 39, of Wilmington, Sgt. Roger Leeroy Adams, Jr., 36, of Jacksonville, Sgt. Carlos Baldeosingh, a hospital security guard and Sgt. Robert Bittiker of Jacksonville.
Friday we spoke to Sergeant Bittiker's mother, Mary Wheat about the unexpected and tragic death of her son. She found out about his death Tuesday, after watching the news about the war in Iraq.
The Bittiker family expects to have a funeral for their son sometime next week.
A memorial service will also be held Monday at Carteret General Hospital for Sergeant Carlos Baldeosingh.
Co-workers say Baldeosingh was killed in Baghdad on Monday, a day before the U.S. pulled its forces out of the Iraqi capital.
Baldeosingh was on leave from his job as a security guard at Carteret General Hospital.
Bittiker's stepfather, Brian Wheat, told WITN News that the sergeant was killed with riding in a Humvee with the other guardsmen. Bittiker leaves behind a wife and two children.
Baldeosingh's wife told the hospital all four men were part of her husband's company.
These most recent deaths bring to 15 the total number of North Carolina National Guard Soldiers killed in action since September 11,2001.
Flags at the hospital are at half-staff, while other security officers on Friday had black bands over their badges. The hospital plans to hold a memorial for Baldeosingh on Monday at 2:30 p.m.

Fans of Patsy Cline gathered near Winchester Sunday to celebrate the life and legacy of one of Virginia's most famous singers. Members of the "Always Patsy Cline Fan Organization" came from across the U.S. and parts of Canada for the annual event. About 40 fan club members held a ceremony Sunday next to her grave in Shenandoah Memorial Park in Frederick County. The cemetery is adjacent to the Patsy Cline Memorial Highway. Cline was born 81 years ago this weekend and had her first national hit "Walking After Midnight" in 1957. You can hear a few seconds of that song by clicking the button at the bottom of this article. Cline's best known songs were "Crazy" and "I Fall To Pieces." She was the first female solo act who was selected for the Country Music Hall of Fame. Cline was inducted ten years after her March 1963 death in a Tennessee plane crash.

Mom Says No Swine Flu Shot, School Gives it Anywaytoddler-times
A mom who opted out on the swine flu shots for kids at her daughter's school is spitting mad – the school immunized the child anyway.
Natasha Jones told WSOCTV she'd told the school nurse at her daughter's South Carolina Elementary School she specifically didn't want the girl inoculated against swine flu.
Jones' argument that the girl has asthma and her doctor had advised against the vaccine doesn't make much sense – the condition would actually put most kids at even higher risk than most for infection. But how anyone feels about Jones' decision doesn't matter.
She's the parent. She made the decision. And the school had an obligation to follow it.
So what happened? The school district told the TV station it was a simple oversight – Jones had signed paperwork for her kids to get the shot. Then she went to the school to tell the nurse she'd changed her mind, but district officials say the paperwork was accidentally left in the pile.
Makes sense, except a mother specifically pulling her child out of the shot rotation should set off an alarm with the school, right? How many parents showed up for a face-to-face meeting with the school nurse? Even with 8,000 students in the elementary school, that particular incident has to stand out.
And a parent reserves the right to change their mind. If anything, this calls into question the wisdom of holding massive shot clinics in the school with permission slips. Kids don't know what they're walking into without a parent on hand – especially at six, they're just following the crowd.
School sponsored clinics may be the best way to immunize the largest number of kids, but perhaps a Saturday clinic or after-school session with parents present would prevent this sort of mishap?

Be involved in your healthcare.
Speak up if you have questions or concerns about your care. Check your wrist band, make sure it is correct.
One of the keys to getting the best health care is to be an active member of your health care team. This means taking part and being involved in every decision about your care. This also means asking a member of your health care team questions, so that you can make informed choices. It means coming prepared for your medical treatment and knowing what to do when you go home.
What you should know - you should understand as much as you can about any:
Here are some good ways to ask questions:
Tell a member of your healthcare team about your past illnesses and your current health condition.
You are the one who knows the most about your health. Tell the members of your health care team everything you can, even if you think they already know, and even if you think it is not important.
Tell them if:
Bring all of your medicines with you when you go to the hospital or to a medical appointment.
Some medicines combine with each other in your body and produce bad reactions. To protect you, your health care team must know about everything you take. This includes the drugs you take with a doctor's prescription.
It also includes other medicines you buy, such as:
When you are going to the hospital or to a medical appointment, put all of your medicines in a bag and take them with you. Always keep your medicine in the bottle it came in. If you cannot bring the medicines with you, another good thing to do is to keep a list of everything you take. Keep this list up to date and bring this list with you when you go to the hospital or to a medical appointment. Your doctor and pharmacist can help you make this list.
Tell a member of your healthcare team if you have ever had an allergic or bad reaction to any medicine or food.
If you get sick, your health care team may have to act fast. Before they give you any medicine, they need to know if you could have a bad reaction to it. That's why you should tell them in advance about any allergy or reaction you have ever had to any medicine or food.
Reactions can include rashes, headaches, breathing trouble, and feeling sick. Because some medicines have food in them (such as the eggs used in the flu shot), be sure to talk about your food allergies too. Tell a member of your team right away if a new medicine makes you feel unwell. If you do not know if you have allergies, you can get tested. Don't wait until you get sick to tell people about your allergies. Some people wear an ID bracelet such as MedicAlert™. This tells the health care team about your allergies when you can't tell them yourself.
Make sure you know what to do when you go home from the hospital or medical appointment.
When you are getting ready to go home from the hospital or after a medical treatment, ask as many questions as you can to make sure you understand what you need to do when you go home. You can write this information down or it may be helpful to have a family member or friend with you to write it down.

Regardless, it's important to understand what's happening with the business. To wit:
eBay's buyers and sellers are fleeing the site. Why? Because:
- You can't find the stuff you want to buy, and
- You can't sell stuff people can't find.
eBay axe Scot Wingo breaks the problem down in detail:
The active user growth trend worsened [in Q4]. Check out slide 8 in the handout. Here's the quarterly trend for active user growth: 14%, 10%, 7%, 4%, 2%. There are some adds (stubhub for example) and deletes (china?) in here. My guess is true organic active user growth probably went negative in Q4. Certainly in Q1 no matter how you slice it, it will go negative.If eBay wants to get its business on track again, it's going to have to reverse the active user trend and get it growing again. Get cracking, Mr. Donahoe!

Research In Motion and Netflix Removed from NASDAQ 100
Waterloo-based Research In Motion will be removed from the Nasdaq 100 at the end of this year, the stock market index announced this week.
The index includes the 100 largest non-financial stocks listed on the Nasdaq stock market. This means a variety of companies are being added and removed to keep the index up to date. Facebook is the most notable addition to the index, at least among techies. Other additions include Analog Devices, Catamaran Coproration, and Liberty Global.
Of course, for each addition there must be a removal. For Canadians, the most notable removal is that of RIM. Other technology companies to say goodbye include Electronic Arts and Netflix, as well as Marvell Technology Group and VeriSign.
"Since its inception, the Nasdaq-100 Index has evolved into a world-renowned brand that includes the 100 largest non-financial stocks listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market," said Nasdaq OMX Executive Vice President John L. Jacobs. "The securities being added to the Nasdaq-100 Index will join Facebook, Costco, Apple, Google and other household names that are leading the new economy forward. Our objective re-ranking process ensures the Nasdaq-100 remains a relevant investable index that is the underlying benchmark for about 7,100 products in 22 countries with a notional value of about $1 trillion."
The Nasdaq 100 launched in 1985 and has returned 2,040% since inception on a cumulative price return basis. It is adjusted once annually.
