Freshman forward Miguel DaSilva earned soccer's version of the hat trick with three goals as the Lipscomb Bisons tied Stetson 3-3 in double overtime Sunday afternoon in DeLand, Fla. in an Atlantic Sun Conference game.
It was third tie of the season for the Bisons and their second in a conference game. They dueled with Belmont to a 0-0 tie.
The Bisons scored all three goals in the first half, but gave up three goals in the second.
DaSilva has four goals in his last two games. He leads the Bisons in goals with seven and points with 14.
"Stetson had trouble with Miguel's pace, but he just dribbled through them," said Lipscomb coach Charles Morrow. "They just couldn't handle him. They were all good goals.
"In the first half we had several players who almost scored. It could have been 4-0 or 5-0."
DaSilva's first goal was scored at 13:32 with an assist from Jorge Suarez. His second and third goals were both unassisted with one at 24:36 and the third at 25:08.
The Bisons were outshot 33-16. Stetson also held a 16- 8 edge in shots on goal.
Senior Lipscomb goalkeeper Jake Goergen made 11 saves.
"Stetson deserved to win the game with the way they played and the chances they had," Morrow said. "Jake did a great job in goal."
The Bisons have clinched their first berth in the Atlantic Sun Tournament. They are 5-6-3 overall, 4-1-2 in the conference. Stetson is 8-4-1, 4-2-1 in the A-Sun.

gec needed a new web page design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 20 designs submitted by 10 freelance designers.
Need logo / page layout for the site (several pages) in english and german. Design should be light-weight, snappy, and 'fun'.
oracle.olymp.org / orakel.olymp.org
The Internet Oracle (formerly The Usenet Oracle) is gaining a 'real' internet presence. While there are two existing sites (http://cgi.cs.indiana.edu/~oracle/index.cgi and http://olymp.org/~orakel/ ) both of those are of very basic design and offer no or limited functionality. The new site (development version visible on oracle-dev.appspot.com) will provide the Oracle with a solid web presence, and needs a new look. The look will have to work in multiple languages (german and english for this contest, text will be provided), multiple browsers, and be easily maintainable.
The service itself is geared towards the general population (ages 10 to 80), and allows the creation of 'funny' anonymous question-answer pairs (as exemplified on the dev site, or on http://cgi.cs.indiana.edu/~oracle/digests.cgi ).
The site needs to be light in tone and accessible, possible themes are greek temples, all things related to oracles, or whatevery you can come up with that I like. Hint: I like http://www.google.com ;-)
- Needs to load fast.
- Needs to be maintainable by amateur
- Needs to work in multiple languages
- Don't clutter. No wall of text.

webOS 2.0 review, Palm Pre 2
HP/Palm have officially announced webOS 2.0 and the Palm Pre 2. Dieter, covering it for our sibling site PreCentral.net, says:
WebOS 2.0 is without question the biggest webOS update we've seen since Palm first unveiled webOS at CES in January 2009. You could argue that the main features -- Stacks, Just Type, Exhibition, improved speed, and a bevy of developer tools are mainly evolutionary and you wouldn't be wrong. However, the sum of these updates adds up to an OS that is coming into its own. Rather than try to play catch-up with Apple's iOS and Google's Android, HP chose to bolster webOS' advantages over those platforms. webOS 2.0 is not a me-too operating system.
Odd, though, that HP/Palm dumped it in a press release, and once again right before an Apple event (though iOS and iPhone shouldn't have much, if any role to play tomorrow). The original Palm Pre and webOS unveiling at CES 2009 deservedly won best of show, and Palm out engineered Google at their own game last year -- creating a web-based, connected, mobile device. HP can solve the money problems, Palm can solve the carrier problems, but now they both have to solve the momentum problem.
Check out Dieter's webOS 2.0 in 10 minutes video, then come back and let us know what you think.

Use a mild detergent (many detergents contain chemicals that are harmful to fabrics) Use a non-chlorine bleach on whites, but only if necessary Tumble dry on low or medium heat and be careful not to over-dry, it makes fabric brittle and causes shrinking and wrinkling Iron while linens are still camp. If dry, dampen linens with a spray bottle Use a steam iron on warm (never a hot, dry iron) Iron embroidered pieces (any anything else you're not sure about) on the back side *All Area linen and cotton/linen blends can be machine-washed with the same care as their cottons

Anti-Censorhip Advocacy Group Calls Out Massachusetts DOT
The National Coalition Against Censorship has written to the Massachusetts Department of Transportation decrying the office for removing select video games from the state's rest stops.
NCAC director Joan E. Bertin provided Polygon with a copy of the letter written for the secretary and chief executive officer of the MDOT. In the letter, Bertin plainly laid out the NCAC's concerns with the removal of the (supposedly), questionable video games.
"There is no legitimate state interest that could be asserted to justify removing specific games to appease the sensibilities of certain motorists," Bertin stated. "Moreover, by caving to the demands of one passer-by, the Department will inevitably invite others to register complaints about material they deem inappropriate. It is not a stretch to imagine someone demanding a ban on certain DVDs, magazines, or books. Perhaps other travelers will think it is inappropriate to broadcast news about war or crime, or other televised content. It is no more acceptable for the Department to remove certain kinds of video games than it would be to selectively remove other materials in rest stops and concessions because some motorists find something in them objectionable."
Bertin added that even though video games may not be for everyone, they are protected under the First Amendment of the Constitution, and therefore, "cannot be regulated or restricted by the state."
What do you think of the NCAC's point? Should the games be allowed to stay, or does the Massachusetts state government have the right to run its rest stops the way it wants?

A group of Springside Chestnut Hill Academy students and other local residents will be bringing out their inner-Spiderman (or woman) for a great cause on Friday, Nov. 2. The participants will rappel down 1515 Market Street, a 21- story Center City building, to help raise funds to benefit Outward Bound Philadelphia, a nonprofit that provides outdoor leadership programs for students and adults.
Nancy Goldenberg, a Mt. Airy resident and an Outward Bound Philadelphia founder, said the idea for the rappelling event came after reading about an similar event in the newspaper.
"I thought we could do that," Goldenberg said.
Goldenberg was inspired to start Outward Bound Philadelphia in the 1980s while walking in the woods with Tammy, a 13-year-old girl she was mentoring in the Big Brother-Big Sister program.
"I took my little sister on a walk in the Wissahickon Park and realized she was scared to death," Goldenberg said. "Here I am thinking this is the most beautiful place in the world, and she was terrified of nature in general. That experience really motivated me to connect kids with nature."
Goldenberg began to wonder how she could not only help her little sister experience nature but other urban youth, too. That's when she heard about the Outward Bound Program and, with the help of Mayor Micheal Nutter who was running for City Council at the time and several other dedicated community members, started the local affiliate in 1992.
"I guess I was young and naïve because my original vision was to create institutional change throughout the entire school district," Goldenberg said. "My goal was to have every middle school kid go on an Outward Bound course."
Goldenberg said while that goal never happened, when she looks back and thinks about Outward Bound Philadelphia's impact on urban kids, she is blown away. Outward Bound Philadelphia provides more than $500,000 in scholarship support to 3,000 students a year.
"It's really extraordinary," Goldenberg said. "I am very humbled and honored that the program continues to thrive and succeed."
Katie Paskuszek, executive director of Outward Bound in Philadelphia, said the mission of Outward Bound is to inspire individuals to do more than they think they can by placing them in challenging situations.
"I think it's important to understand that Outward Bound is the world's oldest and largest adventure-based education program," Paskuszek said. "An important part of Outward Bound is building character and leadership skills and the importance of understanding the need for individuals to be of service to their community. These are critical elements of education that cannot be easily addressed in a standard school setting.
Springside Chestnut Hill Academy students Sarrah Schreffler and Sarah-Chen Ogorek will also be rappelling on Friday. Both are former participants in Outward Bound Philadelphia and shared their thoughts on the program.
Schreffler, 17, of Chestnut Hill, recently participated in an Outward Bound Youth Leadership program this summer. Schreffler said the 14-day program challenged her and at times forced her to change her perspective.
Schreffler, who plays squash at SCH, said she has always loved the outdoors.
"I have always been pretty outgoing and like borderline bossy when it comes to leading," Schreffler said. "It helped me get a better understanding of leadership and the skills needed to be a successful leader."
Schreffler encourages other youth who may be undecided to go on an Outward Bound trip.
"Definitely go for it," Schreffler said. "Whether or not you regret it during the trip, you won't regret it after. It's amazing experience you won't forget."
When asked what advice she would give to people thinking about rappelling, she replied:
"One of the most important things is to trust the ropes. You're being held up by tons and tons of ropes and machinery. And once you get down you will be so proud of yourself."
Sarah-Chen Ogorek, 16, said although she and her family have always been environmentally focused, she was "not a big fan of the woods or hiking."
"A lot of my friends were really surprised when I went on that adventure," Ogorek said. "My friends said 'Oh, you mean you don't want to shower for a week.'"
There were no showers, no cell phones, no iPods, no laptops and no electrical gadgets.
"I don't think people really get how disconnected you are in Outward Bound," she said.
Ogorek and Schreffler and several other participants in the fundraiser recently rappelled three stories down the side of Russell Byers Charter School in Center City.
While Ogorek admitted she wasn't afraid of heights, she said "rappelling was still pretty scary."
She strongly encourages people to participant in the fundraiser.
"It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity," Ogorek said. "There is a zero risk factor. It's more about overcoming your own fear."
Jon Conant, a former instructor for Outward Bound, agreed with Ogorek.
Conant said Outward Bound levels the playing field by putting a diverse group of people in a challenging situation.
"People get to see each other in a different light," said Jon Conant, 64, who became hooked on Outward Bound when he was in high school. "It's a humbling experience. When you see somebody who has been the boss freeze and then have to deal with that. Then the group comes together as a team and encourages them on. It's a gratifying experience.
"Outward Bound has a special message for urban kids because they really need some support to help them overcome some of the obstacles they face," said Conant, who has been a board member of Outward Bound Philadelphia for more than ten years. "It allows them to think 'Yes, it's possible for me to go beyond where I am today.'"
So, what does Conant's friends think of him rappelling down a 21-story building?
"They think I am absolutely crazy," Conant said.
He added that Britain's Prince Andrew "sort of burst the bubble" when he rappelled 785 feet down Europe's tallest building, The Shard, in September 2012.
"If Prince Andrew can do it then we can do it, and it's for a very, very good cause."
Outward Bound hopes to raise $180,000. So far, they have raised $107,384. There are still spots available if people want to participate. If you are interested in rappelling, email email@example.com. If you would like to make a donation to support the cause, go to the website and donate online to The Belay Fund. The money raised will help rappellers who have not reached the $2,000 goal get to that point.

LAKELAND, Fla.—The Barry Buccaneers made a surge up the leader board at the 2013 NCAA Division II Super Region 2 Tournament at Lone Pine Golf Club on Monday.
The Bucs (+30) fired a tournament-best 294 to vault from sixth to third on the second day of competition. Barry is only three strokes out of first.
The Lynn Knights (+27) jumped from fourth to first after a second-round 298. Nova Southeastern (+28), the first-round leader, dropped to second after shooting 306. Rollins (+33) sits in fourth, while host Florida Southern (+38) is in fifth.
Freshman Nicky Ferre and sophomore Daniela Murray both carded even par 72 to pace the Bucs. Freshman Maria Paola Fiorio carded birdies on the last two holes to finish two strokes back at 74. Taylor Babcock (76) and Nancy Vergara (80) completed the Barry entry.
Samantha Smolen (+2) of Lynn is the individual leader. She was one of four players, including the two Bucs, to shoot par for the day. Annie Dulman (+3) of Rollins and first-round leader Kristen Sammarco (+3) are tied for second. Ferre (+4) and Linnea Johansson (+4) of Nova Southeastern are tied for fourth.
The tournament concludes on Tuesday. The top three teams advance to the NCAA Division II National Tournament in Daytona Beach, Fla., at LPGA International.

Most expensive election in U.S. history
The fact that Mitt Romney's billionaire pals could not deliver him the White House, or that Linda McMahon's $100 million spent over two campaigns did not even get her close to winning a Senate seat, should not lead to the conclusion that the outrageous amount of money being spent on elections in the United States is irrelevant.
True, if the amount of money spent on a campaign determined the winner, Mr. Romney would be polishing up on his inaugural speech right now, and Mrs. McMahon, instead of her Democratic opponent Chris Murphy, would be a senator-elect. Republicans, most certainly, would not have lost seats in the U.S. Senate.
To their credit the American people, in making their candidate choices, saw past the negative ad carpet bombing. And we suspect at some point there was a diminishing return for all those TV commercials. People began to tune them out, fast forward through them with their DVRs, and grew to resent the candidate on whose behalf the commercials were provided more than the candidate they attacked.
But however ineffective, this much money in politics still threatens to distort the process. It turns voters off, drowns out serious debate and invites distortion rather than illumination.
Most dangerously it can leave elected leaders beholden to powerful special interests and individuals. And that historically leads to scandal and corruption.
It also just seems fundamentally, even morally wrong. One hundred million dollars to try to gain a Senate seat; an estimated record six billion dollars spent all told during the past election; $60 million invested by a single contributor, casino tycoon Sheldon Adelson, to bankroll conservative super PACs; is there no better use for this money, no better way to run an election?
Both presidential candidates raised plenty of money, about $1 billion each, and both had plenty of outside spending help, more than $1 billion, triple the amount in 2010, but with Mr. Romney enjoying a roughly 70 percent to 30 percent advantage in outside money over President Obama.
Much of this deluge of campaign money results from the U.S. Supreme Court's awful Citizens United decision, which tossed out a long history of allowing Congress and state legislatures to place limits on spending to influence elections. Equating money spent on campaigns with speech, and giving corporations the same status as people, the court ruled the Constitution's free speech guarantee meant lawmakers could not place limits on contributions to super PACs.
With that decision now the law of the land, different strategies are necessary. That can start with passage of tough federal disclosure laws so the public can at least know the identities of the corporations, special interest groups and individuals contributing the money for these attacks.
There is no stopping someone like Mrs. McMahon from spending his or her own fortune trying to get elected, nor should there be. But voters have the right to know who is funding a candidate, or attacking that candidate's opponent, in hopes of gaining future influence.
And maybe, just maybe, all those billionaires having seen their money fail to place a Republican conservative in the White House, or regain the Senate for the GOP, will be less likely to invest os much next time. We could all do with a few less campaign commercials.

Re: Buyers Beware Of AnythingXtreme
I had a very similar experience with this dealer. They claimed all the gear was in stock none of it was, they keeped promising shipment soon weeks latter it didn't ship. I called them up and canceled the order but did not see a credit on my card after a week, so I sicked American Express on them. They resolved the issue rapidly. Another small order I had with them (a barrel condom and a squeegee) they took forever on delivery, and they switched out some of the items I ordered for other similar items without asking calling them an "upgrade". Messy...
on a side note, some stores have been good for me, www.actionvillage.com I've made several purchas from, they have been very nice on the phone, in emial, and deliver rapidly, prices are also great (lowest I've found on most things). www.rap4.com has also been good to me as far as delivery and service goes, also www.specialopspaintball.com has been good..

Christy Charnel Mayor's Shining Scholar for February
Miami, December 2, 2013 -
State Senator Anitere Flores visited six classes at School for Advanced Studies Kendall Campus in the afternoon of December 2, 2013 and was accompanied by SAS Principal Dr. Omar Monteagudo and Miami Dade College (MDC) Kendall Campus President Dr. Lourdes Oroza.
Ms. Flores entertained questions from the students and encouraged them to enter public service in the future. She currently represents the 37th District in the Florida Senate which includes the Kendall Campus of SAS/MDC. She is one of only 40 senators for the state of Florida so it was quite an honor to have her visit SAS.

Steve Woods '93 from Foundation Search Inc. told students Tuesday at Wabash College they need a plan for interviewing and career decisions.
Woods is a professional recruiter from Indianapolis with many years of experience in finding the right job for the right employee.
"You don't have to become a doctor or lawyer to become successful in this world. The most important thing to do when making a career is merging your vocation with your avocation. People spend too much time at work not be happy. That is why it is important to mesh your job with your hobby." Woods said.
Wood urged students to find a 'True North' in their career path and work backwards from there.
"Students have to understand that they more than likely won't land their dream job right out of Wabash," Woods said. " But your first job should be a plot on your way to your True North."
Woods told students that they are merely selling themselves to a potential employer during the interviewing process.
"Chemistry is the most important thing when interviewing. Try to put the employer at ease with both verbal and non-verbal cues. If he has a picture of his son playing soccer then ask him about his son's soccer team. You only have a couple of minutes to make an impression and these minutes are probably the most crucial of the entire interview."
"You must match what there looking for in an employee with what you have to offer as a potential candidate. It is important not to seem desperate and stand out from all the other candidates. Also, it is important that the company is a right fit for you. If everybody on the team and degrees in Accounting and you're an English major red flags should be going up."
Woods urged students to go on as many interviews as possible. Even if you aren't necessarily interested in the job you should go through with the interview for the experience and the opportunity.
Steve Woods can be reached through the Wabash Works website. Woods presentation was part of the Alumni Discussion Series.

Preaching – memorable, thought-provoking, faith-building preaching – can transform lives. The Order of Preachers, which sponsors Aquinas Institute, knows the importance of good preaching and works passionately to provide it.
Research, academics and enthusiasm for great preaching are part of the mix.
Aquinas Institute of Theology won a $70,000 grant this year to develop courses to better prepare preachers to interpret the Bible and effectively use Scripture when they preach. The Wabash Center for Teaching and Learning in Theology and Religion awarded the school the grant. The goal, according to Fr. Gregory Heille, O.P., director of the school's Doctor of Ministry in Preaching program, is to equip preachers with a greater knowledge of the Bible and help them bring the text into conversation about contemporary life.
The school is in pursuit of a second grant as well. Aquinas Institute hopes to work with the Colloquium on Violence & Religion to sponsor an academic symposium and co-edit a book on preaching in a violent world.
Five of the six most recent graduates in the Doctor of Ministry in Preaching program – the only program of its kind in the country – have had their research theses published. They tackled topics such as thematic preaching and how preachers and hearers form each other. Other graduates whose work has been published researched topics such as preaching with children, preaching in the Holy Land, and multi-generational preaching.
The school also offers a master's degree with an emphasis in preaching and a Summer Preaching Institute that attracts nationally known lecturers. The institute has drawn as many as 80 preachers to St. Louis each summer.
Beyond academics, Aquinas Institute encourages great preaching through an annual award that celebrates it. The Great Preacher Award, entering its 10th year in 2004, recognizes a preacher whose leadership has made the Catholic community stronger. Recipients have included a cardinal, bishops, a Dominican sister, a campus minister, and parish priests who inspire their congregations.
Through the school's continued efforts to call attention to the importance of preaching and train great preachers, more Catholics every week will continue to find the meaning and the hope to lead them through the next 167 hours – and the lifetime beyond.

Illinois Republicans who voted for the freedom to marry sweep primaries
March 19, 2014
Yesterday, March 18, three Illinois House Republicans who voted in favor of Illinois' freedom to marry bill last year won their primary challenges, in spite of aggressive targeting this month by anti-marriage opponents. Several anti-marriage groups spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on blatantly anti-gay mailers and ads targeting incumbent state Rep. Ron Sandack (right), Rep. Ed Sullivan Jr., and Rep. Tom Cross for supporting the freedom to marry.
But yesterday, Reps. Sullivan and Sandack were re-elected to their House seats while Rep. Cross defeated his anti-equality opponent.
Marc Solomon, national campaign director of Freedom to Marry, released the following statement:
Last night, Illinois Republican lawmakers who voted for the freedom to marry batted a thousand in the GOP primaries. Their victories--three out of three--in spite of desperate and ugly attacks from opponents of equality show that using marriage as a wedge issue no longer works and that backing conservative principles of freedom, family, and individual liberty will prevail. Our side was smart and strategic in these races and stood up for those who stood with us. Thanks to Equality Illinois and the Illinois Unity PAC for their leadership.
A recent poll from The New York Times showed that 40% of Republicans, including 56% of voters under 45, support the freedom to marry, an increase of 15% over the last two years.
A memo that Freedom to Marry released last year in partnership with Third Way demonstrated that state legislators who vote in favor of marriage for same-sex couples continue to win voter support when running for reelection. The analysis, titled "Pro-Marriage Legislators Win Elections," is based on election results from New York and Washington, where the freedom to marry was approved by legislators in 2011 and 2012, respectively. Ninety-seven percent of the pro-marriage legislators in NY and WA who ran for reelection after voting in favor of marriage won - although overall, the national incumbent reelection average overall in 2012 was just 90 percent.

Study in Washington, D.C.
How would you like to spend a semester interning in the White House or State Department or any one of more than 100 congressional offices? Or how about spending your summer hearing presentations from Congressman James Sensenbrenner and Speaker of the House of Represenatives Paul Ryan?
Depending on your major and interests, you can tailor your experience to focus on what matters to you. Communication students have worked in congressional press offices, biomedical science and engineering students have conducted research in the FDA's Office of Science and Engineering Laboratories, business students have witnessed policy-making on Capitol Hill, and nursing students have worked with congressional health policy advisers. And that's just to name a few of the places our students have worked.
There's no substitute for observing and participating in the political process firsthand. As an intern, you'll work closely with members of Congress and their staffs, as well as civil servants in various executive branch agencies. Internships often lead to opportunities after students' time in Washington, D.C., ends. Dozens of students — because of their experience and connections — have joined congressional staffs, campaigns, and the offices of interest groups and lobbying firms. The market is competitive for these types of positions, so internship experience is invaluable.
Plus, you'll get to experience our nation's capital — a living history book of monuments and world-class museums.
Who should apply?
If you are an undergraduate interested in learning more about the rewards and challenges of public service and you meet the eligibility requirements listed below, you may apply. Our students come from more than 30 different universities and all academic disciplines.
- A minimum GPA of 2.75 on a 4.0 scale
- Recommended course work in Introduction to American Politics (POSC 2201) or equivalent or have sophomore standing

Saul Singer in National Review Online shares my amazement at the broad consensus that eliminating a terrorist organization's undisputed leader (Ahmed Yassin) "was counterproductive, if not downright idiotic." He is also disappointed that the White House seems to lack the clarity to view the matter differently. Specifically, Singer finds that U.N. ambassador Negroponte's pronouncement that Yassin's demise doesn't contribute to the peace process accepts the harmful paradigm that the jihad being waged by Hamas against Israel is different in kind from the war being waged by bin Laden. The paradigm gains whatever superficial plausiblity it has because, as Singer notes, "there is no path to peace with al Qaeda, but there is one with the Palestinians." But there is no path to peace with Hamas, and no way to "get near the path to peace [with Palestinians] until we beat the jihad that prevents this conflict from becoming a negotiable one." In short, "Hamas must be destroyed because its raison d'etre is to destroy Israel," just as al Qaeda must be destroyed because it exists to conquer the West. By suggesting otherwise, the U.S. has missed an opportunity for moral clarity.

Project develops emotion-reading technology
Elizabeth Lamark/RIT Production Services
Teraisa Chloros made faces at her laptop computer. Her mock expressions appeared on the overhead screen with labels identifying her emotions—happy, sad, surprised, angry, disgusted or scared—based on the position of her facial muscles.
Chloros '11 (medical informatics) illustrated the FaceReader software by Noldus Information Technology to mental health professionals in March at a conference sponsored by the RIT College of Health Sciences and Technology and the Office of Research.
The software is one component of the interactive tool she developed with a faculty-student team led by Caroline Easton '90 (biotechnology), RIT professor of forensic clinical psychology. Easton asked the team to create computer programs for her clients to practice what they learn in therapy. The multimedia tools will augment her clinical model for treating clients with co-occurring substance abuse and domestic/intimate partner violence.
Easton's ideas depart from the standard treatment model that differentiates substance abusers and domestic violence offenders. Her integrative method of care connects the two mental and behavioral health problems and treats the individual, not the group. She is a proponent of adapting gaming technology to teach clients to reduce substance abuse and increase communication, anger management and healthy conflict-resolution skills.
"I think virtual reality tools are the future," Easton says. "Human visualization, cyber tools and gaming are all going to be an important part, coupled with our best practice procedures."
Ideas for computer-assisted therapy led Easton, then-director of Yale University Medical Center's Forensic Drug Diversion Clinic, to tap her alma mater's technical expertise. The RIT connection resulted in a co-op for Chloros at the clinic and the challenge of building the technical backbone to support Easton's vision.
"My focus has been on the importance of reading emotion so clients can understand what their partners are expressing and what nonverbal behavior indicates," Chloros says.
The website application and supporting databases represent Chloros' capstone project for the master's degree she will receive this year in medical informatics. The Web application resembles a gaming environment with educational videos, interactive modules with role-playing exercises and realistic vignettes, and self-assessments.
Therapists can use the videos as stand-alone educational resources or in conjunction with computer-assisted therapy, Chloros explains.
Integral to the application is Al-Virt, an empathetic avatar and customizable digital coach designed by Alan Gesek, who is graduating with his Master of Fine Arts in medical illustration. When fully developed, Al-Virt will interact with clients and model healthy communication skills.
"The next phase of the project would be to incorporate FaceReader into a program like Al-Virt," Chloros says.
The multidisciplinary clinical research team working with Easton and Chloros includes RIT professors Richard Doolittle, Shaun Foster, Glenn Hinz, Stephen Jacobs and James Perkins; and students Valerie Altounian, Nirja Desai, Timothy Fitzgerald and Gesek.
"Human visualization and cyber tools are the future in mental and behavior health treatment and education," Easton says. "RIT students are doing it now. They're at the forefront."

"I've had some problems finding acceptable non-leather shoes for business wear. Existing products are usually clunky, poorly made, or both. But this shoe is great. Comfortable, stylish, and exceedingly well-made. The material chosen for the shoe is lovely! The shoe is expensive. But compared to other handmade shoes by good European makers, $275 is actually a bargain. My only wish is that NOHARM made more traditional styles more widely available. Their website shows a balmoral boot, but I can't find it anywhere."

TAMAR'S LIFE COULD have been different. A princess of David's kingdom, she would have married into a wealthy family. But that all changed with the only recorded event of her life, described in 2 Samuel 13: A family member forced himself on her, then turned her out of his room. She cried aloud for all to hear, but the one person who did hear, her brother Absalom, counseled her to not take what happened "to heart."
Rarely preached from the pulpit, this is a story that needs to be heard, because what happened to Tamar happens to one in three women and girls today. They are our mothers, sisters, aunts, daughters, selves—women and girls harmed by violence and silence. Worldwide, violence against women and girls takes many forms: sexual violence, sexual harassment, trafficking, "honor killings," and other forms of murder. Such violence distorts the image of God that is in all of humanity. Victimization is never God's will—fullness of life is. The church needs to help create intentional safe spaces so that healing can begin.
On Feb. 14, 2013, a movement of grassroots, national, and international organizations in more than 170 countries will take part in One Billion Rising, a day of action to reveal the collective strength and solidarity of those who demand an end to violence against women. Initiated by V-Day, the advocacy group founded by Vagina Monologues playwright Eve Ensler, this event invites the world to rise up to stop violence toward women and girls.
The One Billion Rising day of action is an opportunity for the church and faith communities to begin or continue the healing process. And, along with groups and leaders from diverse faith traditions, some Christian groups from around the world have answered the call. For example, in the Philippines, about 50 bishops from the Iglesia Filipina Independiente have pledged to support and join the day of action, a spokesperson for One Billion Rising told Sojourners.

When Richard Mazda emigrated from London leaving behind a successful acting career to become a full-time Queens resident in the early 2000s, it didn't take him long to settle in and start tossing around the idea of opening his own local business.
First, in 2005, he considered founding a hostel, but when funding and real estate didn't line up he followed up on a tip that the LIC waterfront was under development. So he went to take a look around for himself.
On a long walk through the developing district, Mazda became enthralled with its trappings. He was convinced that the riverfront in LIC could end up becoming, "just like the south bank of the Thames."
"It was getting dark and I came past a place called The Creek and the Cave," he recalls. "There was just one guy serving beer to another guy with a three-legged dog."
Mazda said that after a quick look around the place, he asked the bartender, "I haven't got any money, but can I start an acting company here? That's where the Queens players started."
After a short run at the Creek and the Cave, eventually the players moved on to rehearse at an event space in a Jackson Heights steakhouse. Now, several years later, Mazda is running the Secret Theatre, Queens' most prominent independent theater.
In 2011, Mazda had a chance encounter with a mosaicist friend from the neighborhood, and, after it came to light that Mazda had founded the successful, now 20-year-old Camberwell Art Week, it led to his involvement with, and eventually leadership of, the LIC Arts Open.
Formed out of a mildly successful annual open theater event, the LIC Arts Open raised over $30,000 in its inaugural year. This year's festival runs from May 14-18.
"Now we're here four years later, with over 40 venues this year," Mazda said. "Well over 160 artists will open up their studios, and there will be some 400 artists."

Attorney General Lockyer Announces Settlement Requiring Maker of 'Smiling Bob' Erectile Dysfunction Product to Provide Consumers Restitution
Owner and Dietary Supplement Firms Also Will Pay States At Least $2.5 Million
(SACRAMENTO) – Attorney General Bill Lockyer today announced that the makers of the erectile dysfunction product popularized by the "Smiling Bob" ads will pay states $2.5 million and provide consumers restitution to settle a multi-state enforcement action that alleges the defendants made unsubstantiated claims about dietary supplements' effectiveness and automatically billed consumers for products they never requested.
"Smiling Bob may have been happy, but many customers were not," said Lockyer. "The defendants violated consumer protection laws that rest on a simple principle: businesses must deal with people fairly and honestly. This settlement will prevent further violations and compensate consumers harmed by the defendants' practices."
Steve Warshak of Cincinnati, Ohio and five dietary supplement firms he owns entered the settlement with Lockyer, and the Attorneys General of 17 other states and Washington D.C. The defendant companies include Berkeley Premium Nutraceuticals, Inc. (Berkeley) and four subsidiaries: Boland Naturals, Inc.; Lifekey, Inc.; Wagner Nutraceuticals, Inc.; and Warner Health Care, Inc. All five companies operate out of the same location in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Lockyer will file California's complaint and settlement Friday in San Diego County Superior Court. The complaint will allege the defendants violated state laws prohibiting false or deceptive advertising and unfair business practices. The Attorneys General in 12 states and Washington D.C. filed the settlement, and lawsuits resolved by the settlement, in their respective state courts today.
The Attorneys General allege the defendants, in their advertisements, made claims about the effectiveness of their products that were not supported by reliable, competent scientific evidence. The defendants made such unsubstantiated claims about more than 10 of their products, including Enzyte, the erectile dysfunction pill used by Smiling Bob. The defendants' ads claimed Enzyte would improve male sexual function and performance and give them firmer, fuller-feeling erections.
The companies' other dietary supplements include Altovis, Avlimil, Avlimil Complete, Dromias, Mioplex, Ogoplex, Numovil, Pinadol, Prulato, Rogisen, Rovicid, Suvaril, Nuproxi and Rudofil.
The Attorneys General further allege the defendants deceived consumers in marketing "free" 30-day trial orders of dietary supplement pills. The defendants failed to tell consumers that if they accepted the offer, they would receive, and be automatically billed for, additional shipments. Then, the defendants made it difficult for consumers to cancel shipments or obtain a refund, according to the Attorneys General.
The settlement requires the defendants to provide restitution to all consumers who have unresolved complaints on file with Attorney Generals' offices, the Better Business Bureau or Berkeley on the date the settlement is filed with the court. Additionally, the defendants must pay restitution to all consumers who file complaints with Attorney Generals' offices, the Better Business Bureau or Berkeley within 90 days after the settlement is filed.
To protect consumers from future violations, the settlement mandates reforms of the defendants' business practices. Under these "injunctive relief" provisions, the defendants must:
● Stop using the word "free" in advertising, unless all the terms and conditions related to the "free" offer are disclosed to the consumer and comply with applicable state and federal laws.
● Stop making health claims they cannot support with scientific evidence.
● Make disclosures to consumers prior to sale about products the companies will deliver as part of a "negative option feature" or membership, and about refunds and guarantee procedures.
● Record all telemarketing calls and retain them for one year.
Aside from the restitution, the settlement requires the defendants to pay the states $2.5 million to cover their investigation and litigation costs. The defendants also will have to pay the states a $2.5 million civil penalty if they fail to comply with the injunctive relief provisions, or fail to pay the $2..5 million in cost reimbursement.
The settling jurisdictions include: Arkansas, California, Florida, Illinois, Kansas, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin and Washington D.C.
Customers of the defendant companies may file a complaint with the California Attorney General's Office by writing to the Public Inquiry Unit, P.O. Box 944255, Sacramento, CA 94244-2550, or by completing a complaint form on the Attorney General's web site at http://ag.ca.gov/consumers/consumer_complaint.htm.

You probably know close to nothing about "Underemployed" -- other than the fact that the MTV show spent the summer filming in Chicago. The brand new series doesn't have a star like "Boss," as many recognizable faces as "The Mob Doctor" or any of the controversy that surrounded "Mob Wives Chicago."
So what does "Underemployed" have?
A good looking cast, according to the new trailer. They're playing recent college graduates, so they're also really young. Oh, and they have pretty sweet lofts in the city, too.
And yet, I'm guessing we're supposed to relate or feel sorry for these characters who look like the cast of "California Dreams" because the economy has forced them to take jobs they don't like. Miles – played by Diego Boneta, who starred in the underrated "Rock of Ages" – is stripping in the trailer.
If you want me to really feel bad, there should be a down-on-his-luck character who moves nine times and lives in four different states, including in Connecticut on his sister's couch and in Miami with his retired parents, in two years after graduating from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. And just for the hell of it, let's make him Colombian-American and call him, I don't know, Luis.
Anyway, it's hard to tell where exactly most of the clips in the nearly three minute trailer were filmed. I'm pretty sure I saw the Water Tower in there and what looks like Bruce Wayne's penthouse, but I don't know for sure. I do, however, know the show spent a while in the Wicker Park area, including at Gold Star, so I assume that neighborhood will be well represented.
"Underemployed" premieres October 16.

The Griffin PowerJolt dual USB charger solves an age old problem: you and your significant other have both depleted the batteries on your iPhone and yet your car only offers one charging socket. Who gets to use it? Or worse: you're in the middle of that big family summer trip and not only have both parents worn down their iPhones, all the kids in the back are near empty on their iPod touches as well. Do you get your internet or do they get the movies that keep them quiet and you sane for the remainder of the trip?
While I can't claim the Griffin PowerJolt dual USB charger will save relationships and family trips, this simple adapter will at least hold power hungry creatures at bay for twice as long. Read on to find out how!
The Griffin PowerJolt dual USB charger is different from the PowerJolt Plus I looked at last time, which let you pass through a second car adapter. The PowerJolt Dual is much simpler in a way -- an adapter for the power socket in your car capped by two USB plugs. Just plug in the USB to Dock cable that came with your iPhone or iPod touch and you're off and charging.
In my tests with both an iPhone 4 and iPhone 3GS there didn't seem to be any appreciable loss of charging power due to the shared connection. Both iPhones got to 80% quickly and then topped off to 100% in about as long as it takes with the single chargers I've used in the past. (And I'm typically listening to music, using Google Maps, powering videos for the little ones in the back seats, or otherwise working while I charge.)
This is just an adapter, so there's no mount, no built in cable, and nothing else fancy in any way. Since it is simply USB in, you can also use it to charge your non-Apple gear as well, including other phones, devices, headsets, etc. That flexibility really comes in handy for family trips.
If you have more devices than you have charging ports definitely take a look at the Griffin PowerJolt dual USB charger, available from the TiPb iPhone Accessory Store.
- Compact
- Largely invisible when not in use
- Doubles charging ability of power socket
- Only the adapter: bring your own cables
- Doesn't charge iPad

No one imagined the destruction about to unfold as the CSS Virginia eased from its berth late on the morning of March 8, 1862, for what was supposed to be its maiden voyage.
But even as the sailors at Portsmouth's Gosport Navy Yard prepared to loosen the ship's lines, mechanics swarmed over its monstrous armored casemate, trying to finish such last-minute details as its gunport shutters. So urgent was its departure that many jobs remained undone as the smoke-belching ironclad headed into the Elizabeth River, attracting a crowd of excited spectators that soon swelled into the thousands.
Not until the slow, 10-mile journey to the river's mouth was complete, however — and the chief engineer had tested the Virginia's balky steering and suspect steam engines — did the captain decide to forego the usual shakedown cruise and take the lumbering ironclad directly into battle.
And even as he stood on the gun deck with his men, Flag Officer Franklin Buchanan didn't know that — over the course of the afternoon — his revolutionary vessel would inflict the US Navy's worst defeat until Pearl Harbor.
So badly would the Virginia's shot-proof iron casemate and powerful guns mangle the hapless Union fleet blockading Hampton Roads that — by day's end — the centuries-old era of wooden warships powered by sail would be over.
"(The) whole world is watching you today," Buchanan said, as he signaled the drummer to beat to quarters.
"Go to your guns!"
The old naval warrior had reasons to worry as his fearsome but untested ship hulked past Craney Island into Hampton Roads.
Grafted onto the salvaged hull and steam engines of the USS Merrimack — which had never performed well even before being scuttled and burned 9 months earlier — the Virginia was a slow, heavy and ponderous vessel that drew 22 feet of water. It also faced daunting shortages of gunpowder and coal, not to mention the shortcomings of a crew that had as many army artillerymen as sailors.
Also troubling was the latest news on the ironclad USS Monitor, which had just completed its sea trials in New York and might soon join the Yankee fleet off Newport News Point and Fort Monroe.
"Buchanan is itchy. He wants to go out. He knows the Monitor is almost ready," said Anna Holloway, curator of the USS Monitor Center at The Mariners' Museum.
"But the same storm that almost sank the Monitor as it came down the coast kept him from taking the Virginia out into Hampton Roads."
Still, Buchanan's prudence was rewarded with perfect weather conditions that Saturday morning.
As the Virginia swung toward Newport News Point, the wind was calm and the sea state zero. Across Hampton Roads, the USS Cumberland and USS Congress stood motionless, with freshly laundered blue and white uniforms hanging limply from their rigging.
Despite weeks of worry about the new Confederate ship — and reports that it had taken on a crew and raised its flags — the Union fleet was stunned by the strange behemoth. More than 15 minutes passed between the first sighting by the French sloop-of-war Gassendi — which had waited months for the Virginia to appear — and a warning signal.
"I wish you would take a glass and have a look over there, sir," said Congress quartermaster Edward Shippen.
"I believe that thing is a-coming at last."
Stranded in the calm, both the Congress and the Cumberland rushed to position their broadside guns by kedging themselves about with their anchors.
But as the Virginia drew near, its slanted iron casemate — which had been slathered with grease — easily withstood a barrage that would have staggered any wooden warship.
"…Suddenly there leaped from her sides the flash of 35 guns," said Lt. John Eggleston, commander of the Virginia's two hot-shot guns.
"And as many shot and shell were hurled against our armor only to be thrown from it high into the air."
Though the Virginia replied with only four guns, the impact of those powerful weapons was lethal.
Several Union gun crews perished as the Congress was set afire.
"Those four shots were devastating. They wreaked havoc," said historian John V. Quarstein, author of the new book "CSS Virginia: Sink Before Surrender."
"Witnesses said blood, brains and gore ran from the ship's scuppers."
Still, Buchanan's primary target was the Cumberland, which reportedly was armed with rifled cannon capable of penetrating the Virginia's armor.
So he continued past the stricken Congress, aiming his 1,500-pound iron ram at the Cumberland's hull.
"As she came plowing through the water right onward toward our port bow, she looked like a huge, half-submerged crocodile," pilot A.B. Smith recalled.
"It was impossible for our vessel to get out of her way."
Within 30 minutes, the mortally wounded Cumberland would sink to the bottom of the James River. But her dazed crew fought back valiantly as their ship settled into the water.
Firing again and again as they went down, the gunners blew away the ironclad's launches, riddled its smokestack with holes and shot off its anchors as well as the muzzles of two guns.
But even as Lt. George Morris ordered a last broadside, they could not pierce the Virginia's armor.
"(Our shot) had no effect on her," reported Lt. Thomas Selfridge, "but glanced off like pebble stones."
No one on the Virginia paused to watch as the sinking ship's decking and hatch covers began to blow off from the enormous build-up of air pressure.
Still trapped inside the Cumberland's hull, the ironclad struggled to break free until its ram broke off. Then it turned in a long, slow arc and headed back to the grounded Congress.
With only its stern guns able to bear, the stranded warship struck its colors after being brutally pounded for an hour. Congress officers were surrendering when Federal batteries at Camp Butler — ignoring the momentary truce — drove the boarding party off.
Several rebels were hit, prompting Buchanan to climb to the deck with his rifle. He was still cursing from the shot-riddled railing when a musket ball smashed into his thigh.
"Plug hot shot into her and don't leave her until she's afire," he yelled as he was carried below.
Lt. Catesby Jones carried out his orders swiftly, transforming the ship into an inferno. With less than an hour of daylight remaining, he then backed the Virginia off and headed toward the grounded USS Minnesota.
Only the failing light and ebbing tide kept the ironclad from destroying another quarry. But as it pulled away toward Sewell's Point, it left Newport News Point littered with two blasted ships and 300 dead, wounded or missing sailors.
"The magnitude of the defeat is hard to imagine today. It was much worse than anything the Navy saw in the Revolution or the War of 1812," said Gordon Calhoun of the Hampton Roads Naval Museum.
"The Virginia was a complete break from anything they had seen — and Buchanan used it to fight in a way no one had dreamed of. So when the day was done, the Union knew they had nothing that could stop it."

Where did you find those size specs for a sealed box?
i was going through some reviews on the subs before i bought them and i came across one from car stereo mag and it said in there, this is a quote:
"recommendations: a compact size of 0.85ft3 and an optimum size of 1.1ft3. Because of the sheer bulk of this subwoofer, I was surprised by just how small these two recommended enclosures were. As is my custom, I gave the manufacturer a call to get their absolute best enclosure recommen-
dation for sound quality. When Larry Ratcliff of RE Audio gave me the specs, I
was taken aback, shocked even, when the answer came back almost three times
larger then the recommended size at 2.843ft3! That's one big box, but it is more
in line with what I would expect."
i just figured that was fairly reliable info, or is it? so i was just taking that appx times 2. no good?
I had just never heard of that before. If an RE guy said so, by all means try it. Just make sure and pay attention to the mechanical limits since the box is larger than they recommend on their site. I'm not sure if they put the box recommendations on their website to take into account mechanical limits with that kind of power.
