Georgetown in Washington, District of Columbia — The American Northeast (Mid-Atlantic)
Mount Zion United Methodist Church and Heritage Center, and the Female Union Band Cemetery
1334 29th Street, NW
—African American Heritage Trail, Washington, DC —
Mount Zion United Methodist Church is Washington's oldest Black congregation. It was established in 1816 by Shadrack Nugent and 125 other congregants who split from nearby Montgomery Street Methodist Church (now Dumbarton United Methodist) over its racial policies. The present church was completed in 1884. The cemetery, near 27th and Q streets, comprises the Old Methodist Burying Ground, founded in 1809, and the Female Union Band Cemetery, dating from 1842. The cemetery is believed to have been a stop on the Underground Railroad. The Heritage Center (2906 O Street), which houses church records and exhibits, is an early Old English style cottage.

How Global Warming and Climate Change Could Affect Our Life
Being an inhabitant of this planet, we should all care about it and reduce the risks causing it to become worse. Global warming is one of the biggest threats our planet is facing now and unfortunately it's getting higher with the time moving. The more pollution we create, the higher it will be. The future of our planet is in our hands. If we somehow succeed to control this, chances are high our planet's temperature could reduce to its desired state. Before talking further about global warming and climate change, let's have a look at how Global Warming works:
When the sunlight reaches to us (the earth), some part of it reflects back to space in the form of heat or infrared radiations. Greenhouse Gases including carbon dioxide, ozone, methane and nitrous oxide absorb these radiations, trapping Heat in the Atmosphere. The heavy concentrations of Greenhouse Gases lead to Greenhouse Effect, causing temperature to rise. The consequences of climate change are devastating such as increasing sea levels and varying weather patterns.
The rise in our climate change could affect our lives in many ways:
The increasing temperature could affect our health dramatically. When exposed to high heat, we can have many serious health concerns such as increased body temperature, heat cramps, heat stroke and heat exhaustion. Weeds, trees, molds and grasses causing allergic reactions grow very fast in warmer temperature. Furthermore, the diseases like cholera and salmonella that are usually transmitted through polluted water and food may get more active due to flooding. Other diseases that may affect human life include – malaria, Lyme disease and West Nile Virus.
When it comes to agriculture, the global warming and climate change could affect livestock and crops dramatically. According to a report at EPA, rising in temperature could result in a temperature that isn't suitable for certain crops to develop. Varying rainfall patterns may lead to many severe storms that can reduce crop yield. On the other hand, livestock wouldn't be all safe as animals can't survive in high temperature. This could result in Famine in most areas of the World, making it very difficult for human being to survive.
Water Resources
The higher temperature and varying weather patterns also affect the both quality and amount of water resources. They could be dried up, converting the whole world into a desert-like place where water is super rare. Since we can't survive without drinking water, the entire human species could disappear in a matter of few weeks. On the other side, devastating storms and flooding may add contaminants and other chemicals to streams, rivers and lakes, lowering the quality of water. It's water that gives life to every living being on earth. Without it, we may be vanished like we have never been on earth. This is one of the worst things global warming and climate change could bring us.
Energy Production
In high temperature, power plants, distribution systems and transmission grids could also be affected dramatically, leaving all of us with no electricity. We may also experience power outage due to heat waves. Moreover, we could see a sudden rise in demands, making the electricity's price so much high.
The Greenhouse Effect can alter water and fragile land ecosystems, disrupting life in that areas or regions. With the rise in temperature, there're some animals and plants who can't adapt to new climate changes will either die or travel to more friendly regions. In short, some ecosystems can lead to the vast destruction of the entire species.

A Christmas Memory
In the early 50s, there was a covered breezeway
between our house and garage on Spring Street.
Just before Christmas, I remember standing there
late in the afternoon with some neighborhood kids
as a cold wind ran out of the pine woods beyond
the Katsekas's boggy field to the east. We were
cold, but my mother didn't want us all in the house.
There was a storm door and window that looked out
of the kitchen and I remember my mother coming out
and telling us to shush because someone was reading
Christmas letters to Santa on the radio. She opened
the door and window so we could hear. I knew that
throwing open the sash to the winter chill and deepening
dark was something my mother would not normally do.
I heard my letter, everyone giggled, my mother laughed,
but that's all I remember.
Like my memory, the door and the window got worked
into the house when the breezeway was closed in. I have
moved so many times I have no pictures of those first
remembered holiday seasons or of any other. I'm not sure
I want them. They seem more an encumbrance to memory.
Yet, when memory ebbs back into the freezing woods,
the mind shifts lower and lower to only the feel of winter
I'm guessing this was '52 or '53. The radio station was probably WKBR, maybe Bill Morrisey. I'm not even sure the garage was built at that time. When we first moved in (1948) the house was covered with tar paper. We had a party line, but no TV.
This is not a joyous poem as my story "After the First Christmas There Is No other" is. But the poem is a picture. What's in the picture is in the picture. Christmas is for kids, right? Nonsense. Christmas is for parents and as a kid, I didn't then, nor do I know have a clue. Still, it's was wonderful place to be. Thanks to my parents, Polly and Earle. Merry Christmas to all.

Lack of funding means lessons under the trees for some young refugees.
With too few schools for the children, classes are having to take place under the trees in refugee camps in Tanzania. But when it rains, or is too windy, school is cancelled. The poor conditions mean that thousands of students have dropped out, with only 75 per cent of primary-aged schoolchildren attending classes. Only 5 per cent of secondary-aged schoolchildren attend school as well.

I have a dropdownbox which I want to use to search records based on a timescale. The gridview populates results based from that search.
So here is how I want to work this;

Hi I would like to create a database where users can search for multiple fields. For example: if the record is personal details info like name, address, phone number and email id i would like to generate link for this automatically with the fields using stored procedure.. Is that possible.? If so can anybody provide me with the line of code or guideline on how to do that?Any help much appreciated. Thanks
I can't find a way to stop unauthorized users from sending documents to a Records Center site. Can someone please help me? Do i need to configure anything to restrict it to the members of the web submitters group?
I'm still using MOSS2007
In a project, I have two lists that are linked together with a lookup column (it's not the actual scenario, but I simplify it) :
* a parent list, that defines some fields and especially a state field that will follow the life of the object (created, open and archived)
* a children list, that also defines some fields including a lookup field to the parent list and a similar state field for its own lifecycle (created, open and archived)
the life cycle of both kind of objects are linked together. For example, when the parent is opened, all children must be opened too (looks like easy because it's a workflow action from parent, and finding children is simply an activity of the workflow).
Another requirement is to archive the parent when all children are archived.
What is the best approach ?
In the parent life cycle workflow, can I monitor children events (I don't think so :() ?
I can cheat a bit by adding an hidden field "all children archived" in the parent, and set this to true from a child workflow or event. I'm not at ease with this solution as it's not a proper way. Anything else I may dive ?
Any idea, advice, tip, encouragement?
1) I have a ORDER form which is a usercontrol(webpart in sharepoint)
the first field is a autogenerated column given as ORD01,ORD02,ORD03...
for this i have a column in the list which stores these values into list after user submits data.
Now i want to show last inserted ORDER + 1 in the first field .
i.e., when user opens this ORDER page it should show the value.
2) the second case would when user submits data simultanoeusly.
Can anyone suggest a solution for this
i have a list box, a command button and a grid
when i click a particular record / or multiple records on the list box and then cclick the command button the records r transferred 2 the grid
i also have custom paging, the paging shld ocur as many times i clcik the command button
i have used updatepanel with the command button in it so that partial postback ocurs or there is no page flicker ,
but when i use update panel i get teh records in the grid but custom page is not working . it has no affect even if the records are added
if i remove update panel the paging works properly
how do i manage it with update panel

Join us for a full-day interactive workshop, delivered by ISEAL expert staff, who will provide practical, example-based training that delves into the fundamentals of social and environmental standards systems, as well as highlighting new practices and thinking from the field.
What is the workshop about?
The training workshop, delivered by global experts in sustainability standards and certification, will provide participants with a deeper understanding of the practices required to deliver credible and effective sustainability standards systems. This introductory workshop is comprised of five foundation sessions:
Credible standards and certification systems
This session will provide an introduction to the day and overview of what good practice for sustainability standards systems can look like. We aim to stimulate discussion on the concepts and actions that underpin effective standards, based around ISEAL's Credibility Principles - a set of core principles that define the foundation of credible standards.
Demonstrating Impacts
What does it take to implement a meaningful Monitoring & Evaluation system for sustainability standards and what does it mean for you as an organisation? These questions will be explored and an overview provided on the basics of an M&E system, underpinned by the ISEAL Impacts Code. The session will also explore how M&E can be implemented and embedded within an organisation using practical examples.
Introduction to Claims, Labelling and Chain of Custody
This session will give an overview of good practice for setting policies for claims about standards systems, and give insight for controlling the use of claims. It will also provide an overview of the different models of chain of custody most commonly in use by standards systems.
Good Standard Setting
This session will review what good practice, underpinned by the ISEAL Standard-Setting Code, looks like when developing a credible and robust standard, in addition to the implications for design and implementation in order to reach compliance. Trends in the development of new models of standards will also be explored.
Effective Assurance
This session is an opportunity to learn more about ISEAL's Assurance Code, which aims to increase the quality and consistency of assurance in certification and accreditation. Latest thinking will be presented on the effectiveness of different models of assurance, how to safeguard auditor competency, and managing the tension between traditional practice and innovation, amongst other topical issues.
Who is the workshop for?
This workshop is open to all interested organisations and individuals operating in the sustainability sector. The training will provide an overview of key elements of sustainability standards so is well suited for new standards systems or as an introduction for new staff at standards bodies. It will also be valuable for companies and NGOs that are engaging with sustainability standards and certification and who want to know more about what to look for in these systems.
More information
For more information email ISEAL's Learning and Membership team at email@example.com.
Space is limited so please book early to avoid disappointment.
Terms & Conditions
Please review ISEAL's Training and Events Terms & Conditions before booking a workshop.

"I was born and raised in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Having a family of immigrants and being an immigrant myself has instilled the essence of hard work and progression in me. Those two aspects drive me in everything I do. Education is very important to me and I seek knowledge daily. My ambitions and dreams go beyond anything this world can handle. Amongst those dreams is the strong desire that in everything my family and teachers have taught me, I somehow make them proud. They have blessed me beyond what I could have ever done for myself. God only knows how deeply grateful I am for all their help. Thus, all my achievements are a special tribute to them."

Rockefeller Center—there it is, only six blocks south of America House. I often pass through it just to savor the plaza's open space, carved out oasis-like from the surrounding tall buildings in congested New York City. The sunken section of the plaza is transformed into a skating rink as of mid-October, and soon after its opening this year I watched as well-dressed skaters twirled or wobbled their way over the ice to the rhythms of Muzak. This was at 9:30 on a weekday morning, when an appointment had delayed my arrival at work. The skaters included two boys who, at that hour, were presumably playing hooky. Atop one of the complex's buildings is the Rainbow Room, with its expansive views of the city and prices to match.
The complex includes the Radio City Music Hall, a 1932 Art Deco landmark that seats almost 6,000. On major holidays like Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter, crowds line up outside waiting to enter, mostly family groups who come to see the seasonal shows featuring the Rockettes. But of greater interest to those in the journalism line, like me, is another of the Rockefeller Center structures—the Associated Press Building a few steps from the rink. Over the entrance is a gleaming steel bas-relief sculpture titled simply "News." It depicts people at work using journalism's tools of the trade as they existed in 1940, when the sculpture was completed. One figure holds a camera, another a telephone, another works at a typewriter and the fourth holds a notepad. If executed today, the handsome work of art might include a laptop computer.
The person primarily responsible for the cluster of buildings was John D. Rockefeller Jr., only son of the family patriarch, whose immense fortune was based on his monopolistic grasp of the Standard Oil Company, which he founded. The senior Rockefeller was excoriated in his time as a robber baron. So for all the Art Deco beauty of Rockefeller Center and the benign philanthropic associations the family name holds today, walking among the center's buildings cannot help but sharpen in one's mind the implicit contrast they present with the poverty that wracks much of the world—a contrast that conjures up an image of globalization's forces at work in ways that do not necessarily suggest prosperity for all.
In a speech at Regis University in Denver, in September, Cardinal Roger Mahony of Los Angeles spoke of globalization as an almost too convenient "villain for many of the world's troubles." But he added that globalization can indeed be linked with "the growing disparities in wealth and income between peoples and nations," as well as with "pervasive unemployment and underemployment" and "unequal access to communication systems and technologies." The latter epitomize the very basis of the wealth of the world's richest nations. The Census Bureau reported in September that even here in the United States, the richest country of them all, the number of people living in poverty rose by over a million last year. Many among them are children.
Walking through Rockefeller Center that fall morning, one would not think such poverty possible in a land like ours, especially if you moved along the passageways of the sleek underground concourse with its high-end shops like Godiva. But in an unoccupied section of the concourse with a scattering of empty tables and chairs just off the rink, I saw two poorly dressed men and a woman, all of whom might have been homeless—the men together at a table, sitting listlessly as one of them paged through a tattered copy of The Daily News. The woman sat by herself at another table. All three were silent. A security guard was making his rounds through the area. To his credit, he did not disturb these isolated figures, out of place in that moneyed environment, where they seemed like tiny specks.
They represented, though, the many millions excluded from globalization's wealth, a wealth lavishly reflected throughout the center itself—in the sleek buildings, the restaurants and shops, the skaters gliding across the artificially created ice, and now, in December, in the towering Christmas tree ablaze with light in the frigid darkness.
You might enjoy the stinging words of Eugene J. McCarthy, writing in AMERICA (June 4, 1994). "The wealth of the nation became the measure of economic and social good, as the Gross National Product is today's controlling standard for judging the health of our economy and society. Kings and nobles (the politicians of the time) became the friends and companions of the rich."

ECMC needs to keep addiction clinics open
I am writing in response to The News article, "Lawmakers battle today's opiate epidemic," and the possible closing of Erie County Medical Center Addiction Outpatient Clinics. As I read the article, I felt sick and heartbroken for Michael Israel and his family. I admire his family's courage in fighting for others as a result of their own tragedy.
I am a former client of the Downtown Clinic, sober for 20 years. Part of addiction is being unable to ask for help. For most of us, needing help is indicative of weakness, shame and failure. To muster the courage to seek help and hear it is unavailable could be a death sentence. The feelings of hopelessness and isolation I felt at the end of my active addiction are, even now, impossible to describe.
If the clinics close, 600 clients will be displaced. Those without insurance may not have options, and a delayed option is no option. Addiction is a ruthless disease. Anyone can be affected. I fear most for those like me; the hopeless, unemployable and uninsured.
When I called the Downtown Clinic I was seen within 48 hours. I was evaluated and given the help I needed to begin a new life. Had I been told that help was unavailable for weeks, I don't believe I could have held on. It terrifies me to think what would have happened to me.
William Burgin, executive director of Alcohol and Drug Dependency Services, said there is a need for more drug treatment services in Western New York. But the reverse appears to be happening. How can this be? When I first considered writing, I thought, "No, I can't, everyone will know." Within minutes, I knew how wrong and selfish that was. Now, I am asking the ECMC board of directors to do the right thing. Time is of the essence.

Eat locally grown food to help prevent illness
We all hear that we should eat local. We hear that it will help us be green, that it will help keep money in the local community and that it will help us eat fresh and seasonal -- all admirable reasons to eat local. But eating local can also keep you from getting sick. A strong statement, I know. But by eating local, we have the opportunity to understand the origin of our food. This is important, especially when there is a deadly listeria outbreak and you cannot be quite sure where that cantaloupe in the back of your fridge came from.
The recent listeria outbreak from Colorado cantaloupe reached 10 states and killed at least 13 people. As with any national crisis, it has spurred talk about fixing the problem. Some say the problem is a lack of food safety laws or their effectiveness. Others claim the problem is an excess of food safety laws. An easy solution is to eat local.
If more people ate local and food systems were smaller, the listeria outbreak wouldn't have been a national problem. It would have been confined to Colorado. The national food system can have deadly effects when one packaging plant or crop is contaminated and sold across the country. Instead, we can have smaller food chains. By reducing the distance that food is distributed, we can reduce food-borne illnesses spreading far afield. Additionally, during a recall event we will have the capacity to ship in uncontaminated food from another state.
If you eat local, chances are you need not ask where that cantaloupe in the back of your fridge came from.

Let's think positively about our community
In the words of Van Miller, "Now do you believe?"
Why is it that when complete strangers tell us something, it's often viewed more openly and more favorably and without objection than when we hear the same information from those closest to us? I suppose it's only human nature.
Last week, the National Trust for Historic Preservation held its conference here in Western New York. Is there anyone reading this unaware of that fact? The media coverage was extraordinary. And rightly so. It's a story worth telling. Now it's time for us Buffalonians and Western New Yorkers to acknowledge what others around us have said loud and clear. This is a place worthy of significant, national attention. I think we need to do a community version of "Daily Affirmations" with Stuart Smalley (Al Franken), "I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, people like me!"
Countless individuals and organizations -- including all those who have designed, built, preserved and maintained our buildings, landscapes and heritage -- came together to welcome outsiders and many from within our own community to celebrate our past and dream about and hope for our future. A huge, heartfelt thank you to all.
So let's think positively about our community and believe in ourselves, let's promote ourselves to each other and outsiders, let's attract businesses here and improve our schools and social services for the good of our community, and let's continue to work together and celebrate all that we have. We will accomplish extraordinary things if we do.

Dedicated Oracle staff is doing a difficult job
To contrast Shakespeare, I come not to bury Oracle, but to praise it. I read the My View by John Ashwood, principal of Oracle Charter School, and the follow-up letter by a former teacher. I, too, was a short-term member of the faculty at Oracle, and can attest to what she was speaking of. I feel that teaching there was the most significant challenge of my educational career, and one that would give anyone pause and reason to look for alternate employment. The day-to-day difficulties are extreme.
However, I want to state publicly that I have never worked with a group of educators so determined and self-sacrificing as those at Oracle, who work with such a difficult population of students. Those children come from backgrounds that I cannot even fathom having to come from, and it shows in the challenges of simply trying to keep control of a class.
Yet those teachers, administrators and staff come in day after day and try to accomplish something positive in the face of such difficulty, and I respect each and every one of them for their efforts. I know what they have to do, and frankly, could not hold a candle to their attempts to make a difference. I don't know how they are able to teach academics and life-changing skills and do it with smiles in the face of sheer exhaustion -- and maintain their own families to boot.
With staff as dedicated as the ones who have been there for years, change will come. It's a slow process and some (like me) cannot do what must be done there, but it must be done nonetheless. So I hope Oracle can survive, can thrive and can watch its alumni come back years later to say, "thank you."

Breaking down the No. 1 seeds
The day that Cole Aldrich and Sherron Collins spurned the opportunity to leave Lawrence early for the NBA was also the day that the Kansas Jayhawks became the front-runners to cut down the nets in Indianapolis.
A year ago, the Jayhawks were the pleasant surprise after losing nearly everyone of note besides Collins and Aldrich from the national title team.
They overachieved and went to the Sweet 16.
But this year, they had the targets on their back all season.
There was the preseason scuffle between members of the basketball and football teams that some figured could throw KU off its game. Then, starting guard Brady Morningstar was suspended for the first semester after being caught driving while intoxicated.
But that's all in the distant past right now.
It's Rock, Chalk, Jayhawk for a team that has met nearly every challenge this season.
Sure, there were slip-ups — like the loss in Knoxville to a decimated Tennessee team that had just six scholarship players. Then, the setback at an Oklahoma State team which is nearly a one-man show starring James Anderson.
But for the most part, this team has lived up to expectations.
They swept Kansas State in the regular season, won road contests at Texas A&M and Texas and also knocked off Baylor at home.
Collins and Aldrich haven't put up eye-popping numbers, but they have sacrificed for the success of the team — a rarity in this day and age.
Collins is a senior who has a ring on his finger and gives the team a tough, fearless leader who yearns to take the big shot.
Aldrich, a junior, gives coach Bill Self a big man who can score in the post and change the complexion of the game on the defensive end with his ability to dominate on the glass and alter shots.
Then, the pieces fit around the duo.
Marcus Morris has made a dramatic improvement and gives the Jayhawks another scoring option up front, and freshman Xavier Henry, while inconsistent throughout the season, is capable of exploding for 20-plus points on any given night. Tyshawn Taylor has had a sub-par season, but he's still a terrific fifth option to have on the floor.
Morningstar may not look the part, but he's the team's best perimeter defender and the offense is crisp when he steps on the court because of his ability to make quality decisions and make shots.
Kansas can shoot it from the perimeter. In fact, the Jayhawks shoot 41 percent from beyond the arc. They can get buckets in the paint from Aldrich and Morris. And they also defend.
Frankly, there just aren't many holes with the boys from Lawrence, and that's why they began the regular season and enter the Big Dance as the favorites.
Why they'll get to Indianapolis: The Jayhawks are experienced and talented at the two most important positions — point guard and center. They also have good balance.
Why they'll flame out early: I would be shocked if it happens, but the Jayhawks need to defend. They lost to Tennessee because of a poor defensive effort.
Key to their title hopes: Xavier Henry — It's a safe bet that Collins and Aldrich will show up each and every game, but "X" is just that: the "X-factor." He opens up the court when he's making shots from the perimeter but needs to do more than just that. He also needs to defend and put the ball on the floor and not settle for long jumpers.
It's hard to believe that the culture in Kentucky has changed so quickly.
It basically happened the day John Calipari arrived in Lexington.
Shortly thereafter, Patrick Patterson decided he wanted to stay in college for another year. Then, Calipari lured much of the talent he was set to bring in at Memphis with him to Bluegrass country.
Enter John Wall, the No. 1 player in the nation.
Say hello to DeMarcus Cousins, the most talented — yet flammable — big man in the nation.
Welcome Eric Bledsoe, another talented freshman who flew under the radar but was believed to be the No. 2 point guard in the freshman class by many.
Just like that Kentucky was Kentucky again. The Wildcats went from an NIT team under former coach Billy Gillispie to a national championship contender in what seemed like a blink of an eye.
The Wildcats are unquestionably the most talented group in the entire country, but Calipari has done a masterful job blending the old with the new, managing egos and winning game after game while starting three freshmen.
Bledsoe, a natural point guard, has shifted over to the shooting guard spot. Patterson, who shared the spotlight with Jodie Meeks a year ago, has now fallen to the No. 3 spot on his own team.
The young Wildcats struggled early in the season. There was a tight game against Miami (Ohio), a near-loss to Pac-10 bottom-feeder Stanford back in November, another close one against a mediocre Georgia team and plenty more nail-biters.
But the Wildcats won just about all of them.
Wall quickly established himself as a money guy, the player you want with the ball in his hands and the game on the line.
Cousins, after a rocky start, turned into a double-double machine. He overpowered opponents with his brute strength and has done a much better job controlling his emotions.
Patterson has expanded his game as Calipari has allowed him to slide out to the perimeter and showcase his much-improved outside shot.
And Bledsoe, while playing in the shadows of the starry trio, has been nearly as valuable because of his quickness, ability to make shots and willingness to accept his role.
There is depth as well with shooter Darnell Dodson, the late-season emergence of DeAndre Liggins and talented freshman big man Daniel Orton coming off the bench to spell Cousins and/or Patterson.
Kentucky still proved it was vulnerable, especially in true road games. The Wildcats lost in late January at South Carolina, then dropped another one away from Rupp Arena a few weeks ago in Knoxville to Tennessee.
Why they'll get to Indianapolis: Talent. These guys could have four of the top 20 picks in the June NBA Draft.
Why they'll flame out early: If they can't hit perimeter shots. The best way to beat Kentucky is with a zone defense or a sagging man-to-man because there aren't many teams in the nation that can contain them straight up.
Key to their title hopes: DeMarcus Cousins — If the big man can stay focused and not lose his cool, the Wildcats will be tough to beat. His presence in the paint on both ends is invaluable because he gives the wings uncontested looks from the perimeter.
No one saw this coming.
Not even Jim Boeheim.
The Syracuse coach raved about Wesley Johnson all of last season as he watched the Iowa State transfer in practice, but there's no way he had an inkling that his team, which lost three starters off last season's team, would move to the No. 1 ranking during the season.
The Orange lost their heart, soul and point guard from last year's group: No. 6 overall pick Jonny Flynn.
They also lost Eric Devendorf and Paul Harris, who may not have been Boeheim's all-time favorite players but were still productive starters.
There was legitimate concern entering the season as to who would be able to replace Flynn as the team's floor leader.
It was a two-man battle between Scoop Jardine, who sat out all of last season because of injury, and freshman Brandon Triche, who some doubted was a natural for the position.
But the duo has been terrific. Triche has started games, but their playing time is almost identical.
Their combined numbers are impressive and nearly identical to Flynn's from a year ago.
With the addition of Johnson, a sweet-shooting long wing who nearly averaged a double-double, and the two point guards, Boeheim's vaunted 2-3 zone has been terrific this season.
Teams are shooting 39 percent from the field and 31 percent from beyond the arc.
The 'Cuse set its rotation early in the season and hasn't needed to tinker.
You've got Johnson and another big-time shooter, Andy Rautins, on the wings and a pair of strong and athletic big men — Arinze Onuaku and Rick Jackson — on the frontline.
Besides at the point guard spot, there's plenty of experience.
The bench isn't deep, but it hasn't needed to be.
It's basically Jardine, whose maturity has grown by leaps and bounds over the last year or so, and talented 6-foot-7 sophomore forward Kris Joseph, who could become a future star once Johnson departs for the NBA.
However, what has been a solid seven-man rotation virtually all year long could be tested with the recent quad injury suffered by Onuaku in the Big East tournament.
It's still unclear whether Onuaku will be able to play and if so, how much he'll be able to contribute.
Syracuse's success — a 28-3 record and a Big East regular-season title — wasn't based heavily on one player such is the case with Ohio State's Evan Turner and Kentucky's John Wall.
Which is why the Orange need everyone, including Onuaku.
Why they'll get to Indianapolis: The Orange have a defensive system that is difficult to score against, especially for teams that aren't used to facing Syracuse.
Why they'll flame out early: Point-guard play. Triche and Jardine have been terrific this season, but can they do it in the postseason? Guard play wins championships, and these guys haven't been tested in the postseason yet.
Key to their title hopes: The health of Onuaku. The senior big man suffered an injury in the Big East tournament and it's still unclear how healthy he'll be if he's able to play in the Big Dance.
Duke wasn't supposed to be a No. 1 seed.
At least not prior to the start of the season.
The Blue Devils saw Gerald Henderson Jr. leave early for the NBA, and starting guard Elliott Williams transferred back home to Memphis to be closer to his mother.
That left Duke with a gaping hole.
But Nolan Smith has stepped in and filled the scoring role, and backcourt mate Jon Scheyer has had a terrific season running the team.
The Blue Devils earned a share of the ACC regular-season title and also won the ACC tournament with Sunday's win against Georgia Tech.
Duke finished the season 29-5 overall.
Coach Mike Krzyzewski has done a terrific job with a team that isn't overpowering by any means.
Smith has been crucial because the Blue Devils were in dire need of a third scorer to go along with Scheyer and junior forward Kyle Singler.
He struggled when given an opportunity to play the point guard spot in the past, but the move to the shooting guard spot has allowed him to focus on being aggressive and scoring.
It's worked as Smith has joined Scheyer in Singler in averaging more than 17 points per game.
Scheyer has made a near-seamless move to the point guard spot — one that began in the middle of last season. He's one of the most versatile players in the country, and although he's taken on a new role, his scoring hasn't suffered much at all. He's also had one of the most impressive assist-to-turnover ratios of anyone in the country this year.
Singler has battled through inconsistency at times this season, largely because of the transition moving primarily on the perimeter, but he's started to find his shot down the stretch and become the dominant player that most expected entering the season.
It's truly the Big Three and then a bunch of role guys.
There's the three-headed monster in the middle with Miles Plumlee, Brian Zoubek and Lance Thomas.
Plumlee is long and athletic and has shown glimpses this season. The 7-foot Zoubek has made a drastic improvement and become, at times, a force in the middle — as shown by his 16-point, 17-rebound performance against Maryland last month. Thomas gives the Blue Devils another veteran and an athletic, live body who can rebound and defend.
Mason Plumlee, Miles' younger brother, could become an "X" factor. He missed the first few weeks of the season with a broken wrist but could turn into a valuable role guy coming off the bench.
The backcourt depth remains a concern since it's really Smith and Scheyer and not much else. Freshman Andre Dawkins can shoot the ball, but he receives limited time.
Duke hasn't gotten past the Sweet 16 since 2004.
That could change this season.
Why they'll get to Indianapolis: The Big Three — If Scheyer, Singler and Smith all produce, the Blue Devils can be dangerous. These guys can easily go for 60 points by themselves.
Why they'll flame out early: Not enough support. Guys like the Plumlee brothers, Zoubek and Thomas have been inconsistent, and the Blue Devils are so reliant on their Big Three.
Key to their title hopes: Singler — Scheyer and Smith have been fairly consistent all season. If Singler can step up and be the force that many thought he'd be, the Blue Devils have a shot to go deep in the tourney.

As Beth Jones dug through the closets of her Brookline home, memories of trips came flooding back to her — mainly in the form of frivolous, forgotten souvenirs.
"Here's some things that I bought in Japan, from a year-and-a-half ago," Jones said as she rummaged. "I stuck all of these in the corner and forgot about them. This is a lovely cutting board that I found for my parents and forgot to give to them. Oh, here's tea from Kenya, because Kenya's known for tea. What's this? A rhino bottle cork?"
Jones admits she has a problem: When she goes on vacation, she shops and buys bric-a-brac she doesn't need. But, caught up in the moment, she couldn't resist those Kenyan beads that now collect dust. Or the hot sauce she purchased in Puerto Rico — and threw out last week because it was two years old.
"I absolutely spend more than I anticipate when I go on trips," Jones said. "When I travel, I tend to lose that perspective. It adds up."
It's almost too easy to justify vacation spending. The thrill of obtaining exotic goods can be irresistible. You may say to yourself, "I'm in Peru. When will I ever again have a chance to buy this Alpaca sweater?" Or, "I must have this flamenco dancer's fan" when you're in Madrid. Fast-forward a year and (surprise!) you realize you had no need for a flamenco dancer's paper fan.
Don't forget those gifts for co-workers, family members, and the neighbor feeding Mr. Pickles, your guinea pig.
"There's a larger pull to purchase while on vacation that's related to a positive mood and feeling of optimism. The discipline of normal life is often what keeps people on budget," said Kit Yarrow , a consumer psychologist and author. "That's lifted while on vacation."
Don't feel bad if you're a victim of vacation regret spending. Yarrow said we're all guilty of it.
"I snoop in people's homes as part of my job," she said. "I've found piles of forgotten things purchased on vacation, everything from beaded necklaces in junk drawers to art work stashed in garages. I've heard tales of splurges which later weren't enjoyed but served as a painful reminder of extravagance."
That's what happened to Jeff Stein of Newton. On a trip to Toronto this year, he bought a pair of chairs on a whim.
"I thought they looked cool and the US dollar is strong right now in Canada. It seemed smart," Stein said. "I got them back to Boston and realized that not only do I not need them, I don't really like them."
Those chairs ended up going to a lucky buyer on Craigslist who got a great deal.
Some travelers justify their indulgent purchases because they've procured a bargain on airfare, or work long hours and think they deserve to treat themselves to a Bruce Lee commemorative plate found in a Hong Kong market.
No one wants to hear this, but there are ways to cut back on frivolous vacation purchases. The idea of reining in spending while trying to forget about your workaday existence is about as appealing as a pineapple garlic smoothie. But the trade-off is fewer tchotchkes cluttering your home office, more money in your pocket, and perhaps less guilt when you look in your closet.
You can start training before you leave home by familiarizing yourself with exchange rates and downloading a currency converter app in your smartphone. Too often foreign currency doesn't feel like currency. It's multi-hued, pretty, and covered with portraits of people you've never seen. It's practically funny money.
"It's a testament to how poor our mental arithmetic skills are," said Paco Underhill , an environmental psychologist and the author of "Why We Buy: The Science of Shopping." "Someone will look and say 'Oh, I don't quite know what this price is. If it's eight to the dollar, then what does 134 translate to?' People don't want to be bothered on vacation."
Financial planner Donna Skeels Cygan avoids overspending on vacation by leaving her credit cards in the hotel safe and using cash instead. She'll budget herself a certain number of euros per day. If the cash gets low quickly, she'll know she's overspending.
Yarrow, the consumer expert who picks through people's belongings, suggests that you pause before you make a purchase.
"The trick is to put as many impediments between you and what you want to buy as possible," she said. "Bring someone with you and give them veto power, or at least the power to question your decision. Wait 20 minutes. Have the store owner hold the item and think about it. Try to picture how it will fit in your life when you get home. Pay in cash."
Had he followed the advice of these experts, perhaps Josh Gates , host of the Travel Channel's "Expedition Unknown," would have resisted spending $29 on a poolside quesadilla in Aruba.
"Each hideous giraffe carving and seashell necklace is a tacky badge of honor, a stamp that says, 'I was here,' " Gates said. "It's not until later, once the adrenaline of travel has subsided, that we realize we have no need for an onyx chess set, novelty shot glasses, or that slightly erotic carving of a mermaid. Well, maybe not the mermaid. I'm quite fond of her."Christopher Muther can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com. Follow him on Twitter @Chris_Muther.

text: Haven't heard anyone else discussing this on here in a while beyond the thread about the trailer. Anyway, I read IGN's horrible review before playing this and I was going into this game expecting the worst...far from it. While I agree that there are elements that can become quite repetitious, they mostly involve destroying a butt load of enemies with some sick ass moves and a seemless change between red and black costume with unique moves and abilities for each respectively. To be completely honest, the only thing I really can't stand about this game is the voice of spiderman. The story doesn't make sense? What exactly doesn't make sense? Venom has found a way to make the symbiote replicate via symbiote pods and the city is crawling after a while with some very creepy looking symbiote creatures varying in size and threat level. The sybiote always wants hosts and wants to reproduce sort of like the "Aliens" franchise but with dialogue for the main Alien. There is some really cool Spider sense features for identifying those who have been infected with the symbiote that I thought worked very well. Being able to call on other heroes or villians (depending on the decisions you make in the game determines whether you call on heroes or villains) to assist you in battle is a nice touch. However, I hear that this feature is only specific to PS3 and Xbox360 and that the Wii has a costume unlockable feat. to make up for it. Costumes for the Wii include Carnage and the Iron Spider costume as well as Ben Reilly (Scarlet Spider?), these are unavailable for 360 and PS3 apparently, although I cannot confirm this beyond what I've heard and read. There are some really slick looking abilities that each costume possesses that you should find enjoyable. Fighting on walls is SICK! There is something very creepy about seeing average looking citizens who have been infected crawling up buildings in arachnid type postures. I'm really enjoying this game so far, and I suggest anyone who's been influenced by IGN to stay away from it at least give it a rental and see what the fuss is about. I'm glad I did. I will be wary of IGN reviews from here on out as I thought this was a very unfair review with respect to what they complained about and what I have experienced. For those who are playing it, what do you think so far?

This summer we had the pleasure and honor of working on a fun, offbeat, multicultural wedding at the New England Aquarium in Boston. And while there is so much to share about this very cool wedding, I will share some of my favorite things about it and try to let the pictures tell you the rest of the story!
The Groom was of Egyptian descent, and the Bride- American from Louisiana. They wanted an offbeat party to celebrate their union which was going to happen in a private affair. This was to include their family and friends into their new life, so it was a big wedding reception party to celebrate their union!
They wanted it to be laid back, whimsical, colorful,but elegant and classy. They wanted it to reflect their easy going personalities, without it looking too informal or too plain. The location for this fun soiree was the beautiful New England Aquarium with the Boston harbor as their backdrop! A very good choice!
What we gave them?
A colorful, offbeat, laid back celebration with details that represented both their fun, unique personalities and cultures.
The flowers we used were inclined towards being fillers as well as unusual looking - some evoking sea creatures to continue to play with the Aquarium theme they had started out with, as well as to cater to the Bride who was not keen on a typical floral look.
Other fun details:
Kickass cupcakes were willing to work with us on the design of the tower so that it fit in perfectly with the entire design! Those cupcakes really are Kickass by the way, so go try one when you are in the area! Totally worth the trip! And yes- they were a hit!
We were honored to have been able to witness it, and to participate in the beautiful day that it was! We are grateful to the staff at the New England Aquarium and Be our Guest for their flexibility and all their help to pull it off. It was such a great day and a really awesome reception party! Congratulations to Stephanie and Youssef! Thanks so much for the honor!

Vampire Bites Land Babysitter In Jail
A Wisconsin man who pleaded no contest to charges that he bit a 3-year-old boy's neck while "playing vampire" has been sentenced to 30 days in jail, local news reported on Friday. Mark R. Adams Jr. was convicted of felony child abuse. The 43-year-old was sentenced Tuesday.Adams was babysitting the boy in January.He told police that after he watched a vampire-themed show, he bit the boy's neck three times while "playing vampire." He also told investigators it was possible he said something about wanting to suck the boy's blood.Prosecutors said the three bite marks were clearly visible.

"Why are you sad, Wenona," said the chief, turning to her; "why should the eyes of a chief's sister be filled with tears, and her looks bent on the ground?"
"You need not ask why I am not happy," said Wenona: "Red Cloud brought presents to you yesterday; he laid them at the door of your wigwam. He wants to buy me, and you have received his gifts; why do you not return them? you know I do not love him."
"Red Cloud is a great warrior," replied the chief; "he wears many feathers of honor; you must marry him."
The girl wrapped herself in her blanket and lay down. For a time her sighs were heard—but at length sleep came to her relief, and her grief was forgotten in dreams. But morn has come and they are to make an early start. Was ever such confusion? Look at that old hag knocking the very senses out of her daughter's head because she is not ready! and the girl, in order to avoid the blows, stumbles over an unfortunate dog, who commences a horrible barking and whining, tempting all the dogs of the village to outbark and outwhine him.
There goes "White Buffalo" with his two wives, the first wife with the teepee on her back and her child on the top of it. No wonder she looks so cross, for the second wife walks leisurely on. Now is her time, but let her beware! for White Buffalo is thinking seriously of taking a third.
But they are all off at last. Mothers with children, and corn, and teepees, and children with dogs on their backs. They are all gone, and the village looks desolate and forsaken.
The party encamped about twenty miles from the village. The women plant the poles of their teepees firmly in the ground and cover them with a buffalo skin. A fire is soon made in the centre and the corn put on to boil. Their bread is kneaded and put in the ashes to bake, but flour is not very plenty among them.
The next day parties were out in every direction; tracks of deer were seen in the snow, and the hunters followed them up. The beautiful animal flies in terror from the death which comes surer and swifter than her own light footsteps. The hunter's knife is soon upon her, and while warmth and even life are left, the skin is drawn off.
After the fatigues of the day comes the long and pleasant evening. A bright fire burned in the wigwam of the chief, and many of the Indians were smoking around it, but Wenona was sad, and she took but little part in the laughter and merriment of the others.
Red Cloud boasted of his bravery and his deeds of valor; even the old men listened to him with respect, for they knew that his name was a terror to his enemies. But Wenona turned from him! she hated to hear the sound of his voice.
The old men talked of the mighty giant of the Dahcotahs, he who needed not to take his gun to kill the game he wanted; the glance of his eye would strike with death the deer, the buffalo, or even the bear.
