Schools are supposed to be public spaces, but more and more advertisers are using them to target youth. Corporations know just how much time kids spend at school, whether in class, in after-school activities or just hanging out with their friends, and they don't want to pass up a chance to reach them there. A school setting delivers a captive youth audience and implies the endorsement of teachers and the education system.
I have a special secret,
Whenever I'm online -
I don't share with others
The things that are just mine.
Today's kids have become the most marketed-to generation in history, due to their spending power and their future influence as adult consumers. By talking to kids about advertising - how it works and how they're targeted - we can help them to become more savvy as consumers and more resistant to the pressures to be "cool."
MediaSmarts' research has shown that kids with household rules about Internet use are less likely to do things like post their contact information, visit gambling sites, seek out online pornography and talk to strangers online. Having a family agreement or set of rules for using the Internet is also a great way for parents and kids to work together on how to be safe, wise and responsible online.
Most young children enjoy pretend play and love to imitate action heroes. But many teachers, parents and child care workers say the influence of children's superhero TV shows or movies, can result in havoc when little fans get together.
Talking to kids about violence in the media they consume – television, movies, video games, music and the Internet – can help them put media violence into perspective and perhaps diffuse some of its power.
Somewhat surprisingly, it's not only struggling students who plagiarize: indeed, it may be students who are under pressure to achieve who are more likely to engage in the subtler (and harder to detect) forms of plagiarism1. Researchers have identified three situations where this is most likely: when students are under pressure (such as when work must be done with a tight deadline, or a work is particularly important for their grades); when students are not interested in the work; and when students feel that the assignment is unfair to the point where they have no hope of success without cheating2.

"Being far away from my fiancé is very hard during pregnancy. I'm with him now for the next two months back and forth," Sigler says.
Michael Simon/Startraks
After a rough start ridden with morning sickness, Jamie-Lynn Sigler is full swing in the sweetest phases of her first pregnancy.
"[At] 12 weeks it's like something happens — something clicks — and you're back. I'm in the honeymoon stage of my pregnancy," the actress told PEOPLE while visiting Drugstore.com at New York Family's New York Baby Show Saturday.
"I'm six and a half months now so I'm mobile. I can still move around. I can still put on heels if I need to — but I know summer's coming."
And for when those long days of summer officially strike, Sigler's schedule will include time spent "floating in a pool somewhere" trying to beat the heat and keeping cool in her recently renovated home.
"Just staying inside in air conditioning is my plan," the Guys with Kids star, 32, jokes. "My whole house has been under construction which has been lovely timing too, being pregnant. So I am going to move back into my house end of June, and I am just going to nest and organize and make his nursery."
Sigler has big plans for baby boy's sleep space, which include shying away from the traditional light blue hues and concentrating on a more mature color scheme. "I did a vision board with one of my best friends and her sister is a designer," she says. "We did the vision board and picked out a lot of our nursery — which is not baby boy. It's very boy. Instead of baby blue, it's a navy blue."
After work commitments that kept the couple apart, the mom-to-be and her fiancé Cutter Dykstra were recently reunited and have been soaking up the time spent together leading up to their son's big August arrival.
"Being far away from my fiancé is very hard during pregnancy. I'm with him now for the next two months back and forth," Sigler says. "It's really special to be able to go through it [together]. Him being able to feel the kicks and stuff like that, it's great. It's really fun."
Dykstra has also been basking in bust bliss, jokes Sigler, who adds her body — particularly her chest — is continuing to grow at a pace that sends her on a monthly shopping spree. "It is strange to have your body change so much. My breasts have tripled in size, which I am sure is fun for Cutter, but not fun for me," she says.
"It's been an experience of buying literally a new bra every month. I don't know if they will stay this size. We will see what happens after [the baby is born]."
For now, the expectant actress is choosing to embrace the pregnancy period — and everything that comes along with pending parenthood — and has done little more than light yoga when it comes to staying in shape. According to Sigler, maintaining her svelte shape is not high on her list of priorities.
"You widen and your body changes and it's an adjustment, but you just have to keep telling yourself that it's for the baby, and I will figure it out once it's out. I am not crazy about keeping my body," she says.
"It's a time for you to relax about everything. Everything is better for the baby I think when you are relaxed and less stressed. So, I'm not stressing about anything."
Looking ahead to life as a family of three, the future mama plans to bring up a bi-coastal baby. "I am from New York, but live in L.A., but also [Cutter] plays baseball, so wherever his dad is, we are going to be a lot of the time," Sigler says.
Fortunately, spending time in the dugout with Dad — or gearing up for his own games — isn't likely to be a problem with the little one, says Sigler.
"I think he will be more of an athlete because I was an athlete growing up too. So, I don't think he is going to have a choice. I played softball," she says. "It's great as a kid to be part of a team and the camaraderie and everything like that. My brothers played baseball and my dad works with baseball for a living, so I had to to be part of the club."

For French designer Jean-Louis Deniot, the assignment to create an estate in New Delhi from the ground up was the commission of his dreams. In the entryway of this home in India the railing of the grand staircase was inspired by an 18th-century French design. The Empire-style table, Venetian-glass pendants, gold-leaf mirror, and bench are all custom made; the 17th-century urns are Italian, and the flooring is local marble.

A few essential tasks for gardeners in March
Now that the calendar has flipped to March, trees are unfurling leaves, blossoms are bursting and the gardener gets impatient for spring's arrival. But March also brings the threat of late-season frosts - particularly harmful to plants beginning to leaf out with tender new growth. While waiting for the weather to warm, here are a few ways to get the garden in shape.
-Pruning deciduous dormant plants such as fruit trees, grapes and cane berries before they leaf out. Prune fuchsias at the end of this month, leaving two swelling leaf buds on each pruned branch.
-Plant bare-root plants before they begin to leaf out with the warming weather.
-When daffodils finish blooming, keep the leaves attached to the bulb to provide nourishment for next year's bloom. Let foliage wither and yellow.
-Weed. Get right to it because it's best to get weeds pulled before their roots get strong or, horrors, they set seed.
-Eliminate snails and slugs now before they damage plants.
-When the weather warms, begin fertilizing the garden with an all-purpose fertilizer for blooming and fruiting plants.
-Fertilize roses when they begin to leaf out. Fertilize camellias, azaleas and rhododendron with an acid fertilizer.
-Fertilize citrus trees with a high-nitrogen fertilizer that includes iron. An iron deficiency produces chlorosis, which manifests as yellowing leaves (with green veins) and is frequently observed in Bay Area citrus.
-Plant annuals that are more drought tolerant, such as ageratum, cosmos, gazanias, marigold, pansies and statices. You can mix them in with drought-tolerant perennials such as agapanthus, achillea, dianthus, lamium and veronica to extend the blooming period.
-Check your automatic watering system, setting it to come up between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. to minimize evaporation. Also check the lines for leaks.
Flower & Garden Show
"Inspired" is the theme of the 2014 San Francisco Flower & Garden Show, opening March 19 for a five-day run at the San Mateo County Event Center, 1346 Saratoga Drive. The event includes showcase gardens, seminars and several hundred vendor booths. Tickets cost $16 in advance; $20 at the door. A five-day pass is available for $30 (advance purchase), children 16 and younger are free. For more information, call (415) 684-7278 or go to www.sfgardenshow.com to purchase advance tickets and preview the seminars and workshops scheduled.

Penn State Alleged Pedophile Arrested; What About New York City's Lou d'Almeida?
The Gauchos's website states, "Each year, the Gauchos serve between 400 and 500 New York City boys of who approximately 73% are African-American, 25% are Latino, and 2% are from other ethnic groups.
[Publisher's Commentary]
A former coach at Penn State University, a renowned football powerhouse, was arrested on charges that he sexually abused boys, some as young as seven years old, over several years.
Jerry Sandusky faces 40 counts of sexually abusing at least eight boys, including pre-teens.
In New York City, Lou d'Almeida the multi-millionaire founder of a Bronx basketball program called the Gauchos, has so far weathered for decades allegations of similarly sexually abusing young Black and Latino boys.
In the Penn State case, a graduate student reportedly saw Sandusky in 2002 engage in a sex act on a boy and told Penn State head
coach Joe Paterno about the abuse. Paterno, reportedly, told university officials, who never told the police.
The similarities between the Pennsylvania scandal and New York City's Gauchos's case is remarkable.
Here in New York, in 1996, several academic tutors at the Gauchos, also claimed that they caught d'Almeida performing oral sex on a young boy. These tutors reported the allegations to the Bronx County District Attorney, Robert T. Johnson. They also spoke to this writer, who was then a reporter at The City Sun, which broke the story.
At Penn State, Sandusky, 67, a former defensive coach might have been protected by senior school executives who were informed of the allegations by Paterno. These executives and the university may have believed that the scandal would rock the football program, which generated several millions of dollars for the university. What's more, Paterno had been pursuing the all-time winning record and the university may have feared that publicity surrounding the scandal might derail his quest.
On Saturday, two Penn State executives, Gary Schultz, a senior vice president for finance and business and Tim Curley, athletic director, were charged with perjury. They allegedly failed to report what they knew of the sex allegations to police.
Sandusky operated a "charity" to benefit young boys from disadvantaged background. This allowed him to come in contact with young boys from low income families, who then became his victims.
The only "punishment" the university reportedly gave Sandusky, which was approved by Penn State President Graham Spanier, was to bar Sandusky from bringing any of the children from his "charity" to the university's football building.
In New York City, d'Almeida, who is in his late 70s, is friends with many powerful movers and shakers, in business and the media industry. He built a multi-million dollar gym in the Bronx.
His connection to wealthy people --who attend his program's fund raisers-- was a subject of an editorial on September 19, in The Black Star News, which questioned whether the authorities allowed him to get away with the sexual abuse allegations because of his prominent associations.
As in Sandusky's case, d'Almeida also operates a non-profit organization called Team Works Foundation which operates the basketball program, The Gauchos, in the Bronx. The organization has also allowed d'Almeida to come into contact with many children from low income families.
The Gauchos's website states, "Each year, the Gauchos serve between 400 and 500 New York City boys of who approximately 73% are African-American, 25% are Latino, and 2% are from other ethnic groups. While participants come from throughout the city, the majority comes from the Mott Haven section of the Bronx and from Harlem. In these communities there is an acute need for a program which young people value and participate in healthy, wholesome activities in a safe environment."
Some former Gauchos players, who became legends either in college or in the National Basketball Association (NBA) include: Mark Jackson; Stephon Marbury; Felipe Lopez; Ed Pickney and; Dwayne "Pearl" Washington, to name a few.
During the Gauchos' fundraiser last year, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg placed a congratulatory letter in the brochure for the event.
Until October, Wendell B. Walters, a former Gauchos, was a prominent Bloomberg administration official, as assistant commissioner at the Department of Housing Preservation and Development. Walters was fired by Bloomberg after he was charged with allegedly receiving $600,000 in bribes from developers for contracts to build low-income housing.
After The City Sun's reported of the sex allegations against d'Almeida in 1995, other newspapers, including The New York Daily News and The New York Post, published their own reports, quoting The City Sun article. Subsequently, d'Almeida maintained a low profile.
Now, d'Almeida is once again playing a major role at the Gauchos; he is listed prominently on the organization's website as the founder and his photograph appears allover the website. He launched The Gauchos 43 years ago.
The Black Star News's previous editorial asked readers to call District Attorney Johnson at (718) 590-2000 to ask him about his investigations into allegations against d'Almeida.

Family Circle 2010 Fiction Contest: "Divorce Circus"
Jennifer Dupree's story, "Divorce Circus," won second place in the Family Circle 2010 Fiction Contest.
In the bright October morning, Ralph blinked up at the house in front of him, thinking for a moment that he must have taken a wrong turn. He could hardly see the house that had once been his because an enormous red and yellow striped tent sprawled over most of the front lawn. Two monkeys stood like sentinels on either side of the tent's flapping entrance, each holding fistfuls of balloons. Through the opening, Ralph could see a band of six clowns setting up their musical instruments.
"You have got to be kidding me." Ralph squeezed his eyes closed against an impending headache. Vicki was known for excess. Too much makeup, too many presents at Christmas, too much food for family dinners. Once, her spirited belief that more is better had been something Ralph loved about Vicki. Now, though, her obvious lack of restraint revolted him.
In the backseat of the car, Bethany clapped her hands together. "Oh," she said. "A circus tent!" She tapped Ralph on the shoulder, her small fingers like a butterfly. "Can I go, Daddy?"
Ralph nodded and smiled, a feigned happiness for the sake of his daughter. Three weeks ago, Vicki had asked him, in front of Bethany, if they could have her ninth birthday party at "home." The big lawn, she'd said. All of Bethany's friends right there in the neighborhood. Ralph nodded his consent while staring at the crease in his soon-to-be ex-wife's forehead and thinking about how much he hated her.
Now Bethany unfastened her seatbelt and propelled herself out of the car. "Come on!" Her blue and white polka-dot skirt waved liked a flag around her dimpled knees as she ran. Ralph followed his daughter. He heaved himself out of the car and ambled into the tent, the pizza he ate last night lurching around in his paunchy stomach. Bethany turned and granted him only the briefest over-the-shoulder smile as she ran toward the circus.
In the tent's entryway, Ralph pushed streamers out of his face and tried to gain his footing. Vicki sauntered past him wearing a ridiculous white cowgirl hat and carrying a donkey piñata. "The guest of honor has arrived!" She stooped to kiss Bethany. "What do you think of all this?" She gestured wide and the tiny bangles than lined her sleeves jingled. Bethany, her face full of joy, kissed her mother's cheek and ran off to join her friends. Her sand-colored hair streamed out behind her and Ralph thought that he should have at least tried to braid it, like he'd watched Vicki do hundreds of times. How hard would it have been?
Ralph stood against a table piled with dozens of cupcakes. He waited until Vicki sashayed by again. He put his hand out to stop her. "You've outdone yourself," he said.
He'd made his tone intentionally hostile but Vicki simply smiled and squeezed his hand. "Isn't it great?"
Ralph swatted at a loose balloon, wishing he had the audacity to slap Vicki's irreverent happiness right out of her. Then he captured the balloon between his palms, ashamed of himself. He narrowed his eyes at a juggling clown. "You're trying to buy back Bethany's affections," he said.
Ralph noticed Vicki's shoulders stiffen, her painted mouth harden into a thin, unattractive line. "No, Ralph. I'm trying to give our child a fantastic birthday."
"You could have done that with cake and ice cream! You didn't have to rent an entire circus."
Vicki shrugged, thumping the piñata against her thigh. "What's wrong with a grand gesture?"
Ralph shook his head. "This is totally over the top, Vicki, and you know it. You're trying to make Bethany forget how much you hurt us."
"Hurt you, you mean."
The band of clowns started to play a boisterous rendition of "The Farmer in the Dell," forcing Ralph to shout over the noise. "You're the reason Bethany doesn't have an intact family. You're the reason we fell apart."
Vicki shook her cloud of hair. "No, Ralph. You're the one who can't forgive and move on."
"What are you going to do the next time you screw up? Buy her a Porsche?" Ralph threw his hands into the air, knocking a cupcake off the top tier of the three-tiered platter. He watched it fall—white icing splattered into the dirt—and felt a tiny jolt of satisfaction.
Vicki ignored the cupcake and hugged the piñata against her white and gold tasseled vest. "Bethany's having a wonderful time and that's all that matters. If you don't like it, you can just leave."
Ralph watched her saunter across the tent, swinging her hips so that even the juggling clown stopped to watch her. It seemed to Ralph that he was the only one sorry for their broken marriage.
For two hours, Ralph stood just inside the entryway of the tent, watching his daughter enjoy herself and wishing that he were home—in his new two-bedroom apartment—working on a crossword puzzle or reading parts of the newspaper aloud to Bethany. He found a little red and white striped chair and squeezed into it. It was so short that his body slumped onto his knees and his breath felt pinched right out of him. Ralph watched the party-goers and wondered if there had ever been a time when he hadn't felt overwhelmed by his glittering, unbalanced wife.
The afternoon ticked by and it was just a little after three when, swinging her cowgirl hat above her head, Vicki skipped over to Bethany and grabbed her hand. "Come on! The clowns are starting a limbo contest."
Ralph extracted himself from the tiny red chair and elbowed his way through the limboing guests until he reached Vicki. "I'm going to wait in the car. Tell Bethany to come out when she's ready to go home."
Vicki shrugged and he wasn't even sure if she heard him.
Ralph turned to leave but he didn't go to his car. Instead, struck by an idea and an intense longing to be done with this party, he slid around to the backside of the tent until he reached the stake furthest from the opening. Squatting down, he unwound the tie. Ralph moved to his left and loosened the next tie, and the next, and the next. The tent sagged immediately. Ralph smiled. End of party, he told himself as he jogged back to his car. No one would get hurt. It was, after all, only a canvas tent, more than half of which was still standing. When he reached his car he turned, grinning like one of those circus monkeys, feeling full-up with long-denied satisfaction. And then he stopped. The tent was on fire.
A sliver of flame—nothing more than a special effect, really—was alight at the edge of the fallen canvas. And then, before Ralph could let go of the car door handle, the flame traveled and grew and within seconds the tent side closest to Ralph was completely ablaze. Ralph clasped his hands over his mouth and screamed, then thrust his hands away and screamed again, "Bethany!"
He stumbled forward across the lawn, seeing but not seeing the yellow and red clown carrying a howling monkey, a jumpsuited juggler rolling on the lawn, the sparkly silver of his pant leg charred to a brown-black, the white-haired bugle player flapping the hem of her skirt as she ran. A rainbow of balloons escaped into the sky. An abandoned drum rolled down a slope of lawn. Errant musical notes sounded here and there over the cacophony of voices.
Ralph ran, holding his breath until his lungs burned and then, when he couldn't stand it any longer, he gasped in a breath. Smoke filled his lungs and he coughed until he doubled over and then, airless, he felt his body hit the packed-down grass he used to mow. He struggled uselessly to get to his feet, or to at least draw a decent breath, but he found that he lacked the strength to do either.
In the weeks and months and years that followed that afternoon, Ralph often dreamt of the agonizing time between the glimmer of flame and the moment when Bethany emerged, whole and intact, from the tent. In his nightmares, people burned and rolled on the lawn and in the streets. In reality, everyone made it out in time, shaken but mostly unscathed. But Ralph's nightmares never let him forget what could have happened.
After the fire department left, Ralph and Vicki put Bethany to bed on the pull out couch in the living room, because she wanted to be near them. They sat on lawn chairs in the driveway and stared at the charred remains of the tent.
Vicki took a long sip of her beer. "Bethany could have died."
"I know," Ralph said. The fire chief had explained that when the tent collapsed, the canvas sagged onto one of the buffet's warming trays and it had ignited instantly.
Vicki pressed the bottle of beer against her forehead. "I saw the guys from the tent company set the whole thing up. I can't believe it could have just collapsed."
She had driven him to it but there was no one but himself to blame for the actual act. On his tongue he felt the prickle of almost telling her—just to see the shocked look on her face, just to let her know that he was capable of such a thing. He resisted the impulse—out of shame, out of fear, but also knowing that there is some power in being underestimated.
Ralph scraped the toe of his sneaker against the driveway, trying to come up with the right thing to say, some words that would not betray him. "We shouldn't think about what could have happened."
"We could have lost our daughter." Vicki's sobs were sudden and heavy and wet and Ralph watched the way her body shook, thinking about how it was that you could know and not know a person so well at the exact same moment.
"I'm sorry," Ralph said.
"Why?" Vicki blew her nose into a wad of tissues. "It's not your fault."
"I mean I'm sorry that it happened." The fact that he could get away with it felt like both a victory and a defeat. Ralph picked up a piece of red balloon, charred at the edges. "It's just a good thing no one was hurt," he said.

GG introductions: What did Leo think of Kate's date?
If there are photos in the morning, I will post them but right now as of this writing, I can't find any of Kate Winslet posing with her boyfriend, Ned, ahem, Rocknroll.
I guess that's what this is now. He gets to come along.
Here's what I've been wondering all night:
Kate and Leonardo DiCaprio are tight. And at some point, at the show, at the parties, they must have had a moment together. And there must have been the opportunity to make the introduction.
How does she do it?
Hi Leo, darling! (Kiss kiss, hug, hug) Oh Leo, l want you to meet someone. Leo, this is Ned ROCKNROLL. Ned, this is Leo.
Like, what do you imagine Leo DiCaprio, never without a cigar, always the leader of his personal posse, and you know he's a meangirl at the core, is thinking as he's shaking hands with a dude called Ned ROCKNROLL???

Lockheed Martin has been commissioned to design and manufacture the Quiet Supersonic Transport (QSST), a 12-seat private jet that will be able to quietly break the sound barrier. Capable of flying at Mach 1.6—which for the rest of us means 1200mph—that unique ability to sneak through the sound barrier without breaking every window in sight would let it zip from New York to LA in two hours and 15 minutes.
The supersonic jet's sonic boom will reportedly be 20dB quieter than the Concorde's, an aerodynamic trick made possible by a canceling-out effect when the plane's broad nose compresses the shockwave while the rest of the plane's fuselage expands it. Let's hope aviation authorities buy into this idea and let the thing soar coast to coast, pedal to the metal. The groundbreaking design is due to fly by 2013.

The last day of classes is days away and my job for Admissions is coming to a close. This may be my last blog, at least for a while, but I will always answer any questions you have about our wonderful University. I won't be updating this site during the summer, but anyone can send me a comment, question, or message to my email.
You can email me at email@example.com.
This summer I will be moving back to Appleton where I will be interning at 95.9 KISS FM and working part-time at a grocery store. I would rather be out on the golf course everyday, but I have to make some money for the fall semester. I'm not too much looking forward to the grocery store, but my internship should be a lot of fun and give me a lot of experience for my future.
Besides work, I will still have some fun, go golfing, and see some movies cause after all it is summer vacation. You got to have some fun!
I'm also looking forward to my family vacation in early August. It's a while out still, but it doesn't hurt to have something to look forward to while you are checking out groceries. I go up to the Minocqua area in Northern Wisconsin with my whole family and stay in my uncle's cabin by the lake for a week. We go golfing, water skiing, and all the other camp-like activities you can think of…it's a blast!
This may be your last summer before you come to UWGB. So in that case, maybe I will see you around campus next semester, but for now, have a great summer break! Remember to have some fun and shoot me an email whenever you want. Thanks for reading my blogs all year long, I had fun!

It's an average Sunday for a die-hard Jets fan.
Alex Young at MetLife, capturing the game on camera
Alex documents one fan's day; from the traffic to the tailgate to the kickoff to the stalls and then all the way back again. His is not that different every other fan's experience, but it is Alex's uncanny eye and ability to capture the moment which always comes through in his photo essays - which we're proud to post links to every week here on TJB.
This year for the first time, Alex has decided to do some SERIOUS bootstrapping and plans on travelling to every Jets game in 2012. As you might imagine, the costs are adding up any non-hedge fund manager.
I want to be clear that Alex never asked for help. But we love and appreciate his work so much that we thought it would be great if us folks who love his work could help lend a fellow Jets fan a hand in this awesome endeavor.
I thought it might be cool to do what would amount to a crowdfunding campaign for Alex's expenses on this cross country expedition.
We know this is wildly out of the normal, but it has to be said that even a small contribution can make a big difference.
It's cliche, but every little bit really does help.
So consider this your chance to be an angel investor in Alex's perfect season. But also consider it a chance to photodocument one whole season of Jets football from the stands.
Any good financier would want to know more details, so here they are.
- You can donate to Alex by using the PayPal "tip jar" below.
- You can read a Q&A with Alex below
- You can ask Alex your own questions in the comments. He'll try to answer as many as he can himself when his schedule allows.
TJB: You've gone to a lot of home and away games over the past few years and done a great job documenting them ... what is it about the game day experience that's so interesting to you?Alex: I enjoy the camaraderie tens of thousands people from all walks of life come together to root for the same thing. It's just such a unique experience, I just can't think of anything else that compares in day to day life.
TJB: As best we can tell, you've gone to every game so far this season, are you trying to go for a perfect season?
Alex: It's something that I'm definitely trying to do. I'm fortunate enough to have a season ticket and I got some free road tickets early on, so the foundation is set, it's just about me figuring out how to make the road games work. I got a ridiculous steal on a 2nd row ticket in Foxboro this weekend so that's taken care of. I'm going with a group of people to St Louis, I lived in Atlanta recently and plan on using it as a staging area between the Titans and Jags back to back and going to Buffalo in the dead of winter just sounds so awesome (no sarcasm, I swear, I love winter). The tough part is Seattle, its across the country, I have no friends or hook ups there and I have to be in St Louis a week later. I have a little while to figure that one out.
It's an all-in effort for me: I drive a hooptie, live pretty bare bones and even moved back in with my parents before the season to free up money for all the travel. There's not much else I care to spend money on.
TJB: Regardless of wins or losses, what was one of the best game day's you've been able to capture on camera?
Alex: Probably when I was in San Diego for a playoff game in 2010. I had gotten my camera stolen in the parking lot, I had drank too much too early and I just entered this zone. When I emerged, the Jets had won and I had a whole bunch of great photos (I borrowed a camera). San Diego is probably the most hostile place to go for away games and for me and the Jets to simultaneously overcome these challenges and accomplish our goals meant a lot to me.
How did you become such a die-hard Jets fan?
Alex: I grew up in a sports-agnostic household, but I always enjoyed watching football all Sunday. One of my best friends' Dad has been a season ticket holder forever and they would always take me to games in the late 90's. What really sealed the deal for me was being at the game where the Jets won the 2002 AFC East title against the Packers, it really felt special. I guess you could say it was a bit of a bait and switch because they haven't won it again since, but I appreciate the success the team has had in the last 10 years. I understand how tough it was in the 70s, 80s and pre-Parcells 90s for Jets fans, so I keep it all in perspective.
I didn't start taking photos at Jets games until maybe 2005, I had gotten a free Polaroid camera and just got addicted.
You've met a lot of people at a lot of games, who are the people you keep gravitating back to on home game days?
The Grifter accosting the Niners mascot.
Alex: Well there's definitely The Grifter and his whole crew. Growing up I knew him as the guy who sit behind me at games and yell "cut ya friggin hair", now we travel to one road game a year together. We've had some great times over the years. I try to hit up his tailgate every home game, even though it's all the way out by the Izod Center.
There's almost a little LOLA gang ... of course minus the stabbings and meth peddling. Can you explain what LOLA is to the uninitiated?
Alex: Growing up my friends and I used to skateboard. Around 5th grade we founded a skatepark on an unused ice skating rink in a town park named "Lola Prentice". From then on, my friends and I were known as the Lola kids. Eventually the police destroyed the skate-park but the name stuck with us. In 2004 we started a skateboard and clothing line under the same name.
Since then we have all branched out into our personal interests, my friend James has a burger and beer place in the East Village, my other friend Emmett has a media marketing company, I have the sports photography going on. We've all been friends for 20+ years, it's great to have people you know you can count on.
What goals do you have in mind when it comes to photography and the fan sporting experience?
Alex: I have some shorter term goals like going to every NFL stadium (halfway there!), going to the Nets Brooklyn opening and going to all 16 Jets games one year. My long term goal is to ride around the country indefinitely in a limo and bring people at home bigger and better photo essays.

text: florrat 0 Posted September 4, 2012 Below there are a lot of questions about very specific situations and which won't matter that much. So if you don't like nitpicking questions, consider to stop reading. Also, I'm not really waiting for answers like "play as you want", but would rather like to know the "official" ruling. Or, if there's no official ruling, hear opinions why one alternative is more logical than the other.Thanks in advance for answering these questions! 1 What happens if a monster is placed in the outskirts when the terror level is 10? (for example by Mother Hydra). If this happens as normal, what happens if the outskirts limit is reached? The terror level increases as normal? (meaning that a doom token is added to the doom track?). Related: if the terror level is 10, do you immediately add 1 doom token to the doom track or only for every additional terror level increase?2 What do fliers do if they do not move to the Sky (for example with environment Angry Red Skies) and they move (with no investigator nearby)? Do they move as though they were a normal monster or do they stay where they are? (if they move as a normal monster: what happens with a gate burst: "all flying monsters move"? White or black?)3 Exactly when can you default a bank loan? Is there indeed no penalty of defaulting if you currently have no items (except that you can't gain another one)?4 When returning from LiTaS just before upkeep, do you pick up the clue tokens of you destination? In general, if you move somewhere in some other phase than the movement phase (for example in an encounter like: "move to … and immediately have an encounter there"), do you pick up the clues there?5 Can you use items/spells in the movement phase if you are delayed (as long as they don't use movement points)? Or is the only action allowed standing up your investigator? In the last case, what happens if monsters are in the same location as you. You have to fight them, right?6 Related to 5: When you're arrested and move you're investigator to the police station in the next movement phase, do you have to fight monsters that are in the police station (for example Hound of Tindalos)?6.5 If you've had an encounter which says "lose your next turn" (as opposed to "be delayed" or "stay here next turn") you won't get any encounters and cannot use any cards next turn, right? Do you have to fight monsters in your location as normal, tough? Without weapons?7 The .18 Derringer states ".18 Derringer cannot be lost or stolen unless you choose to allow it". How does this exactly work? If you have to discard a (common) item, can you choose the derringer, and after that say "but that item cannot be stolen, so I'll keep it", effectivelty negating the effect? Same question if you lose half of your items (for example when knocked unconscious). If both answers are "no", is the text of the Derringer then only useful if you lose all your items?8 When you can use an item or spell in the upkeep, need this to be done in the "Perform Upkeep Actions"-subphase, or can you also do this in the "Adjust Skills"-subphase after using focus? If you can do it in the "Adjust Skills" phase, can you then move skill slider, cast spell, move skill slider back (provided that you have enough focus)?9 Can you use "Powder of Ibn-Ghazi" (lose 1 sanity and discard to gain +9 to combat checks) when you have only 1 sanity to defeat a monster (and then go insane)? Or, if you're stupid enough to use it, will you merely go insane?10 Sometimes the price of an item is relevant (there's an encounter which says you have to discard your most expensive item or something like that). What's the price of spells? What's the price of deputy's revolver and Patrol Wagon?9.5 Are "The White Ship" and "The Great Seal" items? Are there other special cards considered items (except of Deputy's revolver and patrol wagon)?11 If you use an item or spell to automatically pass some check, or add successes to that check, but the card does not state if it has to be used before rolling for the check or after rolling, when can you use it? Examples: Blue Watcher of the Pyramid, Mists of Releh,Bind Monster12 Suppose you have an explored marker on a (moving) gate which is NOT in an unstable location. Can you use an elder sign (maybe only to close the gate)? If so, what happens?13 About Flute of the Outer Gods ("Lose 3 Sanity and 3 Stamina and discard Flute of the Outer Gods before making a Combat check to defeat all monsters in your current area. This does not affect Ancient Ones."): Can it be used in a combat check from an encounter? If so, what happens to that combat check? If used against monsters, do you get damage from overwhelming of the monsters defeated this way? If there's a warlock (or something) in your location, do you get the clue tokens just as if you have passed a combat check against it?14 Do "Blue Watcher of the Pyramid" and "Flute of the Outer Gods" work against the Dunwich Horror (which will make him a whole lot less unbeatable)?15 Can Ruby of R'lyeh be used by more than 1 investigator in a single movement phase? If no, shouldn't the text be replace with "Exhaust to gain 3 movement points"? If yes, can an investigator during its movement grab the Ruby from another investigator, use it, and give it back immediately afterwards to gain 3 movement points?16 Can Warding Statue ("Discard Warding Statue after failing a Combat check to reduce the monster's combat damage to 0 Stamina. This can also be used to cancel an Ancient One's entire attack for 1 turn.") also be used when failing an evade check against a monster? Does it also remove other effects when failing a combat check? (like losing an item against an Elder Thing)17 Please give an algorithm to determine how much monster go where when a monster surge occurs. Please include the following problems:-monsters being sent to the outskirts by the monster limit-monster limit removed since this monster surge raised the terror level to 10-expansions where monsters do not count against the monster limit-the card "Warding of the Yellow Sign" being placed on the board ("When you gain this card, choose a location in Arkham and place this card there. No monsters may appear via gates in this location. Monsters that appear during encounters in this location may automatically be Evaded.")If a general algorithm is too hard to give, please state what happens in the following scenarios:(a)In the following example: 7 player game, 3 gates open: Devil Reef (Innsmouth), Independence Square and Graveyard. There are 9 monsters in Arkham, and the terror level is 0. A monster surge occurs in the Graveyard. Am I correct that there will be placed 2 monsters on Devil Reef, 1 in Graveyard, 0 in Independence Square and 4 in Outskirts (and then resolving that the outskirts is too full, raising the terror level by 2)?(b)Same situation, except that the terror level now is 8 and there's 1 monster already in the Outskirts. Then after placing 3 monsters in the Outskirts, the terror level reaches 10 and Arkham is overrun. So then the logical place for the last monster would be Independence Square, right? But then we are in the confusing situation that there have been placed 2 monsters on Devil Reef, 1 in Graveyard, 1 on Independence Square and 3 in Outskirts, while the monster surge occurred in Graveyard, and no game mechanic prohibits the fact that 1 extra monster would have been placed in Graveyard (instead of Devil Reef).©What does the card "Warding of the Yellow Sign" exactly do? Does this card work when monsters appear via a monster surge? If so, does this reduce the amount of monsters which appear as a result of this monster surge? Or will there appear more monsters from different gates? What happens if some or all monsters are placed in the outskirts? Will they be treated as "visited the location for a fraction of a second and then moved to the outskirts" (such that the card still has effect)?18 In the encounter "You touch Founder's Rock. Make a Luck (-1) check. If you pass, there is an electrifying shock that opens your mind to the elder things of eons past. Lose 1 Stamina, but gain 2 Clue tokens and draw 1 Spell. If you fail, you find a strange carving. As you finger the grooves, a gate opens here and you are drawn through it." how many monsters appear out of this gate? The same number as if it stated "A gate and a monster appear" (so 1 or 2)?19 What is the Hound of Tindalos distance function (include travel across different boards, devil's reef, y'ha-ntlei and kingsport head locations)?20 Do spells still have effect when you go insane by paying its sanity cost?21 Can you spend more sanity/stamina than you currently have? For example use bind monster on a very dangerous monster when you have only 1 sanity?22 If you're arrested (or instructed by some encounter), you skip your next turn. What if the ancient one awakens later the same turn as you're arrested in, do you fight it normally the first turn?23 When you're devoured (not in the final battle) exactly when does your new investigator enter play? Begin of the next upkeep phase? In the last case, can he get an arkham encounter before having a movement phase?24 There are quite some encounters which state that you move to some other world, have an encounter there and immediately return. What happens if the encounter in the other world makes you Lost in Time and Space (you do not return then?), return to Arkham (do you just return to your original location, or to an open gate with an explored marker? Or are you lost in time and space if there's no open gate?), or delay you (you're just delayed after returning to arkham?)?25 In the encounter "You are mistaken for an inmate. Doctor Mintz has the guards subdue you and conducts an experiment. Make a Will (-1) [2] check to discover the results. If you pass, the injections seem to increase your capacity for learning. Draw 1 Skill. If you fail, his memory drug fails miserably, resulting in lost knowledge. You must discard one of the following (your choice), if able: 4 Clue tokens, or 2 Spells, or 1 Skill.", if you fail, can you choose an option which you cannot discard (while you can discard one of the other options)? What if you can only partially discard something (for example you have 1 clue token, but two spells, are you allowed to discard the clue token)? If you cannot fully discard any of the options, should you choose an option where you can discard "most"? Does the same logic apply to the encounter "Sheriff Engle notes that you're carrying an awful lot of weapons. Either pay him $5 or discard all of your Weapons."? Because there it would seem rather silly that you have to pay 5 dollar if you do not carry any weapons.26 If you get an Arkham Encounter "A gate and a monster appears", is it true that you will have 3 other world encounters before you can return to Arkham? (given that you won't be delayed, sent to LiTaS, return to Arkham early, etc.)27 Some mythos cards (Strange Sightings!) have no gate opening, but say (in the headline) that a monster surge occurs. When does this happen, in the "open gate" part of the mythos phase or the "Activate Mythos Ability" part? Also, the first player gains a clue token, when is that done, "place clue token" part or "Activate Mythos Abililty" part (this does matter in rare cases)28 Questions about The Black Man ("Before making a Horror check, pass a Luck (-1) check or be devoured. If you pass, gain 2 Clue tokens. In either case, return the Black Man to the cup."). Can you claim it as monster trophy with John Legrasse? Does passing the Luck -1 check count as "killing" the monster? (for encounters like "Two monsters surface from the island's dark waters. If you kill them both, you are Blessed.")29 An encounter in the Curiositie Shoppe states "Draw a mythos card and move to the gate location shown on it". What happens if you draw a mythos card with 0 or 2 gates on it? Draw again?30 If you go insane or unconscious during an encounter, but you have not done everything yet, do you complete the encounter? If so, when do you go insane/unconscious? Immediately upon reading "Lose X sanity/stamina", or after the encounter? Or does it depend on what happens next? What if you get "lose 1 sanity but gain 1 clue token"? Do you get the clue token (and before or after losing half of your clues)? And in "Lose 1 sanity and a monster appears", it is pretty clear that you won't have to find the monster if you go insane from the "lose 1 sanity". But what is less clear (and sometimes matters (Rhan-Tegoth)) do you have to draw a monster and immediately return it to the cup?31 Related: Suppose an encounter says "Lose 2 sanity and 2 stamina". If you go insane from the "Lose 2 sanity", you'll also lose 2 stamina, right? If you are knocked unconscious from that too, you're devoured, right? If so, it means that the "lose 2 sanity" and "lose 2 stamina" will happen simultaneously. So, can you invoke the "Timing conflicts" rule and take the 2 stamina loss first? (this might be of critical importance in some case. Suppose you have 1 sanity, 1 stamina and your only items are 2 food cards…) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A $250,000 grant from Citi Community Development will enable the National Federation of Community Development Credit Unions to develop a shared banking platform for its member credit unions.
The system will create uniform, shared procedures for back-office processing and services, including technical support, member service, and accounting support teams—increasing efficiency and enabling consistent delivery of services to millions of families who have limited access to affordable financial products and services.
The Federation's network includes 244 community development credit unions (CDCUs) in 45 states, serving more than 1.7 million predominantly low- and moderate-income members.
"We need to build a system that helps us to aggregate our collective work and create some cost efficiencies," says Federation President/CEO Cathie Mahon.
The new system will help CDCUs:
The idea for the Federation's shared banking initiative has been brewing for years and will likely take considerable time to develop, Mahon said. The grant is a positive first step.
The Federation, Mahon says, will reach out to member credit unions this summer to learn more about how a shared banking platform can help.
Citi Community Development works to provide financial inclusion and economic empowerment for underserved individuals, families, and communities by working with nonprofits and public agencies across the country, according to its website.
"Community development credit unions fill a critical gap in access to banking services and credit for low-income and minority communities," says Bob Annibale, Citi global director of community development and microfinance.
Mahon and Annibale addressed the Federation's 2013 Annual Conference in Baltimore.
Citi also funds leadership program
In addition to the $250,000 grant for shared banking, Citi also pledged $125,000 to support a Federation leadership program.
The grant will fund six-month fellowship programs in up to 15 participating credit unions serving some of the nation's most impoverished and financially underserved communities.
Today, the average age of CEOs at CDCUs is nearly 60, and the median age for credit union members is 47. To ensure that credit unions continue to focus on developing a pipeline of future leaders, the Federation created the Finance Leaders for America (CFLA) program.
CFLA's intensive training program includes a two-week summer institute, including one week of in-person training, online training, and ongoing support.

This items features a felt-lined top drawer to help you organize and protect your accessories. The felt-lining prevents metal items from scratching the wood, and holds items in place, ensuring delicate pieces like necklaces and bracelets don't get tangled as you open and close the drawer. Eliminate the need for bulky jewelry boxes and keep your fragile items organized with the thoughtfully included felt-lined top drawer.
Drawers are constructed with dovetail joinery, ensuring long-lasting strength and storage. Made up of interlocking wedge-shaped elements called pins and tails, the joint connects drawer fronts, sides, and backs, designed to withstand the daily pulling forces you apply when you open a drawer, for problem-free use. A time-tested joint that predates written history, dovetail drawers are a mark of quality furniture construction.
Drawers are outfitted with metal side drawer glides to ensure drawers open smoothly despite daily use. The full-extension glides allow the drawer to extend completely, so that you can take advantage of the drawer's space and easily access items stored at the back of the drawer. Whereas wood on wood guides may be susceptible to warping over time, metal glides provide reliable drawer operation strong enough to withstand daily activity.
The eight-drawer dresser is constructed from solid wood with a rustic finish and features wooden peg and plank accents for an authentic, craftsman-made aesthetic. The case offers storage drawers in a wide array of sizes and depths to accommodate varied objects. Two large bottom drawers are ideal for sweaters and bulky objects, while a smaller felt-lined top drawer provides a safe haven for jewelry and valuables. A coordinated landscape mirror is also available for order if desired.

It's a match made in wizarding vampire heaven.
"The Twilight Saga's" Jamie Campbell Bower, who plays the evil Volturi vampire Caius, and "Harry Potter's" star Bonnie Wright, who plays Ginny Weasley, have confirmed that they are a couple, according to OK! Magazine.
"Yes, we're dating," Bonnie told the mag. "We've been seeing each other for a few months, it's good. We're going to the BAFTAs together on Sunday."
The two will have a busy schedule in 2010, with Bonnie filming the final two movies in the "Harry Potter" franchise, and Jamie will start work on "Breaking Dawn" in the fall.
Bonnie's love life will also be heating up on the big screen, as her romance with Harry Potter intensifies in the final two films.
Friends for nearly a decade, Daniel Radcliffe said their on-screen smooch was a bit strange.
"The kiss was… fine," Daniel told Access Hollywood. "It was slightly weird at first."
"I think I've had enough practice over the years," Daniel laughed. "It was one of those things where it was slightly odd at first because I've known Bonnie since she was nine and I was eleven… Ultimately… you get on with it."

I see no reason why LABEL should not be used when visible text label is present for a standard HTML form control. User agents old and new support it. ARIA-LABELLEDBY could be used as a hack to associate multiple labels with a form control but it should not be used if it is the only label for a control. Even today there are companies who test with IE 6 ... they do so because there are users still using it. There are users who are using older versions of screen readers and cannot afford to buy the latest JAWS / WinEyes. Right NVDA etc. is free but some PWD / older folks are comfortable with their AT and do not want to switch. Just because a technique is there does not mean it should be used every where even if it is not recommended in that situation.

We are always stressing the fact that our techniques are sufficient, but not exclusive of other techniques which might work. De facto, aria will currently work for users in a non-primitive user agent environment (unless I'm mistakenly assuming that it is currently supported by modern browsers). How can we then fail this seemingly sufficient technique? Not elegant, yet it does the job. Yes, a hack, but a successful one. I think it unwise to demand state of the art solutions as a prerequisite - better to keep it advisory in nature. adam -----Original Message----- From: email@example.com [mailto:email@example.com] On Behalf Of Sailesh Panchang Sent: Thursday, June 30, 2011 6:48 PM To: David MacDonald Cc: 'WCAG' Subject: RE: F68 forbids WAI ARIA to replace label element David, >That's a good point Sailesh >The HTML spec says each label element has exactly one corresponding >field...... so in those cases, F68 may be OK, but I don't think F68 >allows for the freedom that we find in the WAI ARIA language of "wherever >possible", because F68 applies to all field elements. Sailesh: F68 applies only where UI has a visible text label and association is not made or made incorrectly. F68 does not apply to all situations... meaning all form controls on a page. >There may be times when a standard label element must be used to describe >more than one field... I think this is a situation where it is perhaps it >is a good choice, and where the label element doesn't work too well. >Currently this would fail under F68, no? Sailesh: Use of title attribute is allowed as per techniques when no visible label is present or in a situation like a form within data table. Title attribute or off-screen label can be used to relate col and row header with form controls to aid non-visuall / AT users. This is well supported by browsers and AT. ARIA not necessary here. Also HTML allows more than one label to be associated with a form control. But user agents do not support this reliably though this has been in the specs for years. So aria-labelledby / aria-describedby can be relied upon in these situations. Using ARIA here is a hack for user agents' limitations. Again, ARIA is meant to be used for dynamic content using scripting and custom elements- not on standard form controls. (No scripting is required to code standard HTML form controls). One uses ARIA as a hack to counter limitations of user agents but thatis not what ARIA is designed for. And that is the real problem: when user agents do not support or do not support a feature uniformly the user suffers. One may come out with elegant specs but one is at mercy of user agents. Already we see some ARIA features are better supported in FF and not in IE or not at all. Another example: The title attribute may be used on most HTML elements as per specs but is not uniformly supported by user agents.

The intro clearly states that one should use standard HTML elements wherever possible because these are natively supported and role, state etc is exposed to browsers and AT. ARIA is designed to improve the accessibility of dynamic content generated by scripts including custom elements / widgets. It is referred to as a bridging technology by the specs. HTML works just fine with browsers and AT. Use technology for purpose it is designed and intended and documented. I quote, "It is not appropriate to create objects with style and script when the host language provides a semantic element for that type of objects". So it is indeed a failure if one uses aria-labelledby on a standard HTML INPUT element without using HTML LABEL element. Use ARIA where standard HTML is not designed to work. Refer to 1.3 and 1.4 on http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria/introduction Thanks, Sailesh Panchang www.deque.com Tel 571-344-1765 --- On Wed, 6/29/11, Chris Beer <email@example.com> wrote: From: Chris Beer <firstname.lastname@example.com> Subject: Re: F68 forbids WAI ARIA to replace label element To: "WCAG" <firstname.lastname@example.com> Date: Wednesday, June 29, 2011, 6:12 PM Agreed. Furthermore it will need an careful genericising rewrite to account not only for the fact that ARIA labelledby can be applied to more than simply form/input controls, but also to make it HTML5 applicable as well as 4.0x and XHTML. If no one gets to it, its on my to do list with HTML5 STs, (yeah yeah, I know) but that said, we'll need to look at all the techniques after they move to generalized (X)HTML for ARIA conflicts and impacts.
