Darius Kimbrough, convicted of raping and killing Orlando woman Denise Collins, scheduled to be executed
(CBS/AP) ORLANDO, Fla. - A 40-year-old man convicted of raping and murdering an aspiring artist at her Orlando apartment 22 years ago, is scheduled to be executed Tuesday at a Florida state prison in Starke, reports CBS affiliate WKMG.
Darious Kimbrough was convicted of the murder of 28-year-old Denise Collins after an eyewitness account placed him at the woman's apartment complex at the time of the crime.
In October 1991, Collins was found nude, moaning, covered in blood and barely conscious in her apartment's bathroom. The sliding glass door to the second-floor balcony was partially open, and there were ladder impressions in the ground underneath the balcony.
The woman was rushed to a hospital where she died the next day. Detectives found semen on her sheets and pubic hairs in her bed and in a towel.
A neighbor in Collins' Orlando complex told detectives he had seen a man near Collins' apartment near a ladder by the apartment's balcony, and the neighbor later identified then-19-year-old Kimbrough as the man, in a picture lineup. A maintenance man at the complex also said Kimbrough had watched him putting away a ladder in the complex around the time of the murder. Kimbrough was charged with the first-degree murder, sexual assault and burglary almost a year later. He was found guilty at his 1994 trial, during which experts testified that blood and semen samples taken from Collins' bed were compatible with Kimbrough's DNA.
More than two decades after Collins' death, Kimbrough is about to be executed.
"He lived 22 years too long and too well and he's going to go out clean and easy, and he doesn't deserve it," said Diane Stewart, Collins' mother, in a recent telephone interview. "She didn't go out that way, and he doesn't deserve what he's getting. He should go out the way she did. That's how we feel."
Stewart, who lives in New Jersey, said she planned to attend the execution with Collins' sister.
Kimbrough's attorneys are appealing the active death warrant. In previous appeals, his defense attorneys have said the evidence was circumstantial and that the neighbor who placed Kimbrough by Collins' apartment balcony was elderly and had memory lapses.
Kimbrough says he had ineffective legal representation at his trial and that his attorney didn't hire a mental health professional to evaluate him.
Kimbrough's attorneys had blamed Collins' former boyfriend for the crimes. He had beaten her previously, they said, and he had a key to her apartment. That evidence was excluded from his trial, and Kimbrough's attorneys argued it should have been allowed to be introduced to jurors.
Gary Boodhoo, who was Collins' former boyfriend, described the defense attorneys' allegations as ludicrous.
"It was devastating. I was suffering a loss. Everyone was suffering a loss," said Boodhoo, a video game designer in San Francisco. "I thought it was hateful and hurtful."
Defense attorneys also said a juror didn't reveal that his fiancee was employed at the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, whose crime lab analyst testified at the trial, and that the DNA testing used to convict Kimbrough was faulty.
"The defendant was denied his right to a fair and impartial jury by prejudicial pretrial publicity, by lack of a change of venue, by failure to sequester the jury and by events in the courtroom during trial," Kimbrough's post-conviction attorney Robert Strain said in a recent filing. Strain didn't return a phone call from the Associated Press.
A month after Kimbrough was convicted of first-degree murder, but before he was sentenced, court officials learned that three jurors had read a newspaper article about the victim. Kimbrough's attorneys asked for a mistrial for the penalty phase and a separate jury was picked to decide a sentence. Jurors recommended death by a vote of 11-1.
Collins was an aspiring artist at the time of her death. She went to high school in Titusville and attended colleges in Boston. She got a job at Kinko's in Orlando after earning a fine arts degree, but she wanted to be a graphic artist. She loved cats and was "big-hearted," said her mother.
"She had a very pleasing personality. She was outgoing and laid-back," Stewart said. "She was very pretty, a very attractive girl."
Collins spent her last evening listening to CDs at a friend's apartment along with other friends, including Boodhoo. She returned to her apartment at night, and detectives believe she was attacked sometime between midnight and 4 a.m. the next day.
Medical examiner testified at trial that Collins had a fractured jaw. The cause of death was ruled hemorrhaging and brain injury from blunt injury to the face. There were tears and swelling around her vagina, according to the medical examiner's report.
Boodhoo recalled Collins as a loving person who did work in painting, drawing and collages.
"There was such a beauty to her work, her personality, her relationship with others," Boodhoo said. "I'm just glad he's going to die ... I couldn't be happier about it. He's the worst kind of human being there is."

Epo Hormone Improves Their Outcome
Startling statistics
Between 40 and 50 percent of extremely preterm infants — those born between 24 and 28 weeks of gestation — die or have moderate to severe neurodevelopmental impairment. According to Dr. Juul, these impairments can include cerebral palsy, mental impairment, blindness and deafness.
Juul believes that erythropoietin (Epo), a hormone that is produced in the brain and kidneys and is essential for baby's survival, is the key to improving the lives of preterm babies because it has the ability to protect cells in the body. Based on her many years of research, she believes that Epo can be used to protect babies' brains from neurodevelopmental damage cause by extreme early delivery. Epo is currently used in a lower dose to treat or prevent anemia in preterm babies because it stimulates red blood cell production and can also reduce the need for blood transfusions.
The focus
Dr. Juul and her team are currently in the process of enrolling preterm babies for her study, dubbed the PENUT Trial. The trial has 5 percent of its goal of 940 preterm infants, though enrollment just recently began.
When a mother is admitted into one of the participating hospitals or research sites (there are 18 sites and 29 hospitals participating nationwide), the Epo trial is discussed with the parents. Juul says, "If the moms are admitted to the hospital prior to the birth, we discuss the opportunity with them then. Sometimes, if the baby is delivered urgently, we speak with them after the delivery." However, preterm babies are screened to ensure that they qualify, as there are some exclusionary criteria, and then must be admitted into the trial program within 24 hours of birth.
From that time, the enrolled babies will be given 1,000 units/kilo of Epo every other day for six doses. At the age of 2, researchers will test the patients' mental and motor skills to see how the hormone affected brain development.
Better outcomes for babies
Juul notes that survival rates of preterm babies are much higher than in years past. However, she wants to improve the outcomes for the babies that are surviving extreme early delivery.
"Right now," Juul says, "there are no medications to treat preterm babies. We are extremely excited at the prospect of being able to better the outcomes for preterm babies. But first we have to make sure it's safe." Through the clinical trials, Juul and her team will be able to fine-tune the proper Epo dosing to ensure better outcomes for preterm babies is safely achieved.

Oh yes, we still celebrate El Dia de Los Reyes Magos, not to the same extent as they do in Argentina or Mexico, but will keep up with our traditions in our own ways ;)My family (from Argentina) leave a bowl of water and a bowl of grass (for the camels) and a pair of shoes (for los reyes to leave a little surprise gift)by the front door. At my husband's family's house we do it a little different, we leave one shoe underneath the Christmas Tree for los reyes to leave a little surprise gift. It's a lot of fun to see what los reyes leave at each of the houses!!!ReplyDelete

Great post Betty! I too am on the same boat as you when it comes to reviving these meaningful traditions. Although the nativity was always a staple in our home at Christmas while growing up, I feel that the traditions and stories behind it seemed to have faded. Being one of youngest in my family and having been born in the states, by the time I grew up the traditions of el Dia de Los Reyes had long faded and I too instead waited for Santa. I decided that it was up to me to revive these traditions for my children. I started last year by filling stockings with goodies and leaving them by the door for my children to find. I told them the story of the 3 Wise King and the meaning behind the gifts brought. A few years ago I also started to the Rosca de Reyes tradition. I love to see the anticipation in my children's faces as they bite into their bread and wait to see who ends up with the tiny plastic baby in their piece of bread. These traditions are important to me because they are a part of who we are and where we came from. It is up to us to pass on these traditions to our children.ReplyDelete
I never got a chance to celebrate it.ReplyDelete

The Rockies have broadened their scope in attempt to land a right-handed bat and starting pitcher, inquiring about Arizona outfielder Justin Upton and White Sox right-hander Gavin Floyd, according to multiple major league sources.
… Interest in Floyd, a reliable innings eater who's under contract through 2012, is tied directly to the Rockies' dwindling chances of keeping free agent Jorge De La Rosa.
… The White Sox are looking for offense, and asked about the Rockies' Ian Stewart, a third baseman. He's no longer off limits, but the Rockies don't have a third baseman to replace him.

OWASP Security Shepherd
Security Shepherd is a computer based training application for web application security vulnerabilities. This project strives to hurde the lost sheep of the technological world back to the safe and sound ways of secure practises. Security Shepherd can be deployed as a CTF (Capture the Flag) game or as an open floor educational server.
Security Shepherd has been designed and implemented with the aim of fostering and improving security awareness among a varied skill-set demographic. This project enables users to learn or to improve upon existing manual penetration testing skills. This is accomplished through lesson and challenge techniques. A lesson provides a user with a lot of help in completing that module, where a challenge puts what the user learned in the lesson to use. Utilizing the OWASP top ten as a challenge test bed, common security vulnerabilities can be explored and their impact on a system understood. The bi-product of this challenge game is the acquired skill to harden a players own environment from OWASP top ten security risks The modules have been crafted to provide not only a challenge for a security novice, but security professionals as well.
Security Shepherds vulnerabilities are not simulated, and are instead delievered through hardened real security vulnerabilities that can not be abused to compromise the application or it's environment. Many of these levels include insufficient protections to these vulnerabilities, such as black list filteres and poor security configuration. Security Shepherd includes everything you need to complete all of it's levels including the OWASP Zed Attack Proxy Project and portable browsers already configured for proxy use.
CTF Mode
Security Shepherd can be morphed into a CTF server by an administrator with the click of a button. This presents users with one modules at a time. They must complete there current level before they can continue. Administrators can also set a "Module Block" that prevents users from progressing past a certain level. It is also possible to run a CTF in a Tournament mode where a user can complete any module in any order they wish. When ether of these modes are enabled, the scoreboard is then available. The scoreboard updates automatically and reflects the bonus points users achieve by completing a module first, second or third.
User Management
Security Shepherd includes a user friendly method of creating many users at a time for administrators, as well as an optional open registry system. User's activities are logged allowing an administrator to gather real time data on who is connected to Security Shepherd and what their module progress is. This data can be mined to gather information on who was online, at what time and how much time has been actively spent on a challenge.
Topic Coverage
The Security Shepherd project covers the following web application security topics;
- SQL Injection
- Cross Site Scripting
- Broken Authetication and Session Management
- Cross Site Rrequest Forgery
- Insecure Direct Object Reference
- Insecure Cryptographic Storage
- Failure to Restrict URL Access
- Unvalidated Redirects and Forwards
- Insufficient Transport Layer Security
Future Development
New levels or level idea's are wanted in the highest degree. If you wish to contribute a level or even an idea; contact Mark Denihan on email@example.com.
The aims of Security Shepherd's future development is to allow level contribution easier through the creation of a "Challenge Builder" framework. It is also desirable to implement an automatic updating solution so that new levels that become available across new releases can be syncronised seemlessly.
Check out the project roadmap and find some tasks that you can help with right away..
Security Shepherd has been designed with expansion in mind. The applicaiton's underlying architecture is composed of a secure core applicaiton and database server that depicts how the application runs. There is also an exposed application and database service that runs all of the server side vulnerabilty exapmles. If these services are compromised, the core service can continue to run unaffected.
Security Shepherd is written in Java and is compiled in a web application archive (WAR) and therefore can be run on any platform with a Java virtual machine and a web applicaion server like Tomcat. To eliminate tedious environment configration; there is a Security Shepherd portable environment. This environment includes Tomcat/MySQL servers and scripts that can be used to automatically stand them up. This portable environment is currently only available for Windows environments (32bit and 64bit). Development for other operating systems is ongoing.
Security Shepherd 1.2:
The standard release is a single download, unrar, and click-to-run release. This service is currently only available for Windows operating systems
* Double-click on the startServers.bat - Two Tomcat and two MySQL command windows will start * Browse to https://localhost:8080/ * Default user is admin/password (You'll have to change the password upon login)
Security Shepherd 1.2 Manual:
The manual release is a single download, unrar, and follow the steps release.
* Deploy the core.war and exposed.war on your application server(s) * Run the core.sql and exposed.sql scripts in your database servers(s) as root users * Point your browser at the core application (eg: https://localhost:8080/core) * Default user is admin/password (You'll have to change the password upon login) * Through the admin configuration tools, set the URL's for the application servers and sign on information for your databases
Security Shepherd downloads are available at Google Code and Source Forge. The deployments that require no server set up are quite big and are only available on Source Forge due to size constraints.
You can synch to the current Security Shepherd source tree at Google code
Project Contributors
The SecurityShepherd project is run by Mark Denihan. He can be contacted at email@example.com. Security Shepherd distributions are currently maintained on SourceForge and Google. The Security Shepherd template makes it extremely easy to add additional lessons. We are actively seeking developers to add new lessons as new web technologies emerge. If you are interested in volunteering for the project, or have a comment, question, or suggestion, please join the Security Shepherd mailing list.
This project was initially created as part of my BSc. Thanks to Dr.Fred Mtenzi and DIT for allowing me to donate this project to the OWASP community.

My kid is almost the age where I need to consider potty training incentives. Walmart suggests the $US15 Jack Potty toilet/slot machine (get it?) with sensors that "detect a deposit and trigger lights and sounds."
For $US15, I can't imagine exactly how good those sensors are—my experience with Jack Potty's brand, Safety 1st, has not been positive at all, but that's not the real issue. I know Walmart is trying to help, and I'm sure it makes sense to them: The percentage of people who throw away most of their Social Security checks on slot machines probably do tend to spend whatever remains at Supercenters.
But how will this affect kids, mentally? Risk of gambling addiction aside, a friend of mine said it best: When our girls are old enough to visit Las Vegas and look out over the sea of slot machines, will they say, "Wow, check out all those public restrooms!"?? Scary. [Walmart via Consumerist]

New Nestlé Crunch Girl Scout Cookie Bars
Taste-test, Aisle 1.
After devoting an entire week of my life to Girl Scout Cookies, I thought I was ready to give them a rest. But then I saw all three limited edition Nestlé Crunch Girl Scout Cookie Bars hanging out next to the Ritter Sport at my local drug store and I knew I was ready to get back on the horse.
Available until September, the new Nestlé Crunch bars come in three flavors: Thin Mint, Peanut Butter Crème, and Caramel & Coconut. To translate into GSC speak, that's Crunch Bar mixed with Thin Mints, tagalongs (also known as Peanut Butter Patties) and Samoas (also known as Caramel deLites).
Each pack has two little bars, which I like. Not only does it make it feel like there's more candy, but it seems Girl Scout appropriate that you could feasibly be healthy and save half your pack for later. I also like that they have the signature bumpy surface of a Crunch bar. Crunch is one of my favorite candies (ode here) and I didn't want them to lose their identity in face of the popular girl at school. Now on to the flavors.
Thin Mints:
As by far the most popular cookie, I have to believe that most people will nab this version of the hybrid bar. Luckily, Nestlé came through—the bar tastes exactly like a Thin Mint, except it's better because it's like three Thin Mints piled on top of each other. Flavor wise, it's that same After-Eight slash minty Oreo taste that everyone loves. The wafer is a little crumbly, sure, but its height gives every mouthful the intensity you always want a Thin Mint to have, but can't, because they're not Fat Mints, as you always secretly wished they were.
Peanut Butter Crème:
Although this is technically a Do-Si-Dos (also known as Peanut Butter Patties)-Crunch hybrid, it could just as easily be taking its cues from Do-Si-Dos, also known as Peanut Butter Sandwiches. The bar has the Nutter Butter taste of most peanut butter snacks, though it's elevated by a distinct hit of salt. The crunchy wafer keeps the peanut butter light, which works to the bar's advantage. Overall, it tastes a little artificial, but I didn't really mind.
Caramel & Coconut:
Open the package and you'll find that this bar has the distinctive tan striping to identify it as a Samoa. But where I find the cookie to be delightfully balanced, the bar falls a little too far in artificial coconut territory. I definitely missed the actual shards of coconut that adorn the cookie, and the bar lacks enough taste of both chocolate and caramel. This bar is also the only one of the three whose texture isn't as good as the cookie's. Samoas have a crunchy shortbread cookie base, a bit of gooey caramel, some chewy coconut flakes and a smooth sheen of chocolate. None of that translated into the wafer, which was simply uniformly crunchy and tasted mostly of coconut.
Verdict: I'll pick up more Thin Mint bars until they run out, especially to horde in my stash of candy-to-bring-on-a-plane. The other two weren't bad, but I'll probably wait until cookie season and get the real deal.

Lane Bryant Customer Service via Facebook: The Breakdown
Lane Bryant's Facebook Business Page is one way to contact customer service and see if they are on Messenger at the same time. We don't always recommend this as the best way to reach them, and you can see our other suggestions right here. If there's a better, faster way to speak to a customer service rep about your issue, we got it. One reason that so few customers prefer to speak with businesses over Facebook is that the conversation is more private than, say, a conversation with Lane Bryant over Twitter. And generally, if a Facebook option is available and their customer service department actually operates it, they likely have a big enough customer support operation to also communiate over the phone, by email, or sometimes even by chat. And of course we at GetHuman build tools to make communicating any of these ways even easier and less time-consuming, so there's that too. So far we have not built any tools to accelerate or improve communication through Facebook, but we may soon. Particularly for companies that are on Facebook Messenger.
Contacting Lane Bryant in General
There are 2 ways to speak with Lane Bryant customer support. This is just one of them. And not likely to be the best one. In almost every case, you would want to call Lane Bryant if possible, or use the GetHuman Phone to call them so you don't have to wait on hold. The best way to talk to customer care, according to other Lane Bryant customers, is the 800-888-4163 option we show above. If you know of other ways to reach Lane Bryant that we haven't talked about here already, please let our research team know. Or if you think that Lane Bryant has a better Facebook page or Messenger handle, we want to know that too! And we of course would want to share that with other customers in our ongoing fight to make customer service easier and more transparent to all.

jleejd necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 56 diseños de 20 diseñadores freelance.
Grand Lake DUI
I am an attorney that focuses my practice on defending those accused of driving under the influence. I have designed a web site but need a logo for building name recognition. It will go on all advertising that I do. Beginning immediately on my web site, on coasters, and on print ads.
I have ran 1 contest on here before and did declare a winner. I also try my best to give good feedback. You can see that contest here: http://99designs.com/contests/8902
Individuals from all walks of life who have been charged with a DUI.
I am open to other ideas but here is what I think I want. I picture a circular (of course not an absolute requirement) logo that has my web site address and my office phone number around it. In the middle of the circle I want an image of a boat. The boat can be a clear drawing or can be abstract. Since it is an alcohol related website you can work alcohol related images into the design if you so choose and can find a creative way to do so. But it is not required. You can even work in a sun if you so choose.
The boat idea is not set in stone, in fact it may be a bit misleading because the people I represent are charged with driving a vehicle under the influence. So if you want to incorporate into the design a vehicle or roadway with or without a lake background that would be fine too.
I am just not creative and that is why I come here. I hope this contest goes well and I will do my best to give lots of feedback and to do so quickly. I am in central timezone.
The area I practice in has a large and very popular lake. There are many party spots around the lake and want to focus my practice in this area. That is why it is Grand Lake DUI.
Info that must be on the design
Colors: I believe that I want Blue or Dark Red.
GrandLakeDUI.com is up and running so you can check it out for more info.
Vector format please

About Toki Tori
2009-11-08 #
Toki Tori is his name, and collecting eggs is his game. In this puzzle/platform game, players use a variety of items such as the Telewarp, InstantRock and Slug Sucker. Clever use and combination of these items are needed to solve all the game's levels, of which there are more than 70. Levels range from easy to brain-teasingly hard, resulting in dozens of hours of puzzle play time. Toki Tori makes the most of what Wii has to offer. It uses the Wii Remote for a unique control scheme, which offers players a new and more relaxing play style. A second player can help you out by drawing hints while you are playing. The game even uses the Wii Message Board in a unique way.

When students and parents are unable to pay all costs in full by the due dates, or if financial aid will not be available until after the term begins, payment arrangements must be made with the Office of the Bursar.
A Direct PLUS Loan is a low-interest rate loan to help parents pay for their child's education beyond high school. The U.S. Department of Education is the lender, not a bank or a credit union. Direct PLUS Loan funds are usually applied directly to your child's school account. A Direct PLUS Loan is not a grant or scholarship; therefore, you must repay the money received. Parents can borrow a Direct PLUS Loan for their child if he or she is a "dependent student."
Numerous private scholarship opportunities exist from companies and philanthropic organizations.
Alternative Loans are non-federal educational loans available from a variety of national lending institutions. Minimums and maximums vary for these loan programs but all require a satisfactory credit history.
The Office of Student Financial Aid provides undergraduate and graduate students with resources about types of financial aid and student employment.

S.A.D Lighting and Therapy - Abc
What is Seasonal affective disorder?
Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is a type of depression that comes and goes in a seasonal pattern.
SAD is sometimes known as "winter depression" because the symptoms are more apparent and tend to be more severe during the winter.
The symptoms often begin in the autumn as the days start getting shorter. They're typically most severe during December, January and February.
SAD often improves and disappears in the spring and summer, although it may return each autumn and winter in a repetitive pattern.
Symptoms of SAD can include:
- a persistent low mood
- a loss of pleasure or interest in normal everyday activities
- irritability
- feelings of despair, guilt and worthlessness
- feeling lethargic (lacking in energy) and sleepy during the day
- sleeping for longer than normal and finding it hard to get up in the morning
- craving carbohydrates and gaining weight

Having never been to a hockey game before, professional or otherwise, I accepted an invite from my friends Lisa and Chuck to attend Bulls game. The San Francisco Bulls are a minor league ice hockey team who've been playing at the Cow Palace since October. San Francisco hasn't had a minor league hockey team since the 1990's, and I'd been seeing lots Bulls-based status updates on my friends social media feeds for months. Apparently, going to a Bulls game is cool.
We paid $10 to park at the Cow Palace, and another $19 each for some decent seats. Last Friday night's game against the Las Vegas Wranglers was "Family Night", so perhaps there were more kids in attendance than usual. Lisa, Chuck, and I were seating directly in front of some sugared-up 11-year old boys who screamed all evening long. At one point, I considered turning around to say, "I suspect you're going to find high school really, really difficult." Then I realized that my proximity to obnoxious nerdy tweens was my payback for being an obnoxious nerdy tween myself.
The crowd was a very eclectic collection of hockey fans, a number of whom sported San Jose Sharks jerseys and/or hunting gear. The walls of the Cow Palace feature framed photos of suited gentlemen in cowboy hats, and the standard food and drink windows peppered the hallways. For $5, we purchased six (6) orange foam "pucks", each numbered and connected to the buyer. During the 2nd intermission (do we call it intermission in hockey?), anyone with a foam puck was instructed to throw it at a bulls eye placed on the ice. The closest to the bulls eye won money. I didn't even get mine past the front row of seats.
I particularly liked all of the audience participation. The smaller crowd of about 8,000 allowed for lots of interactive activities. One lucky broad seated nearby won a sweaty hockey jersey* directly off the player's back. Folks could line up after the game for player autographs. And we were all invited to join the players at the San Francisco Zoo the next night for some sort of … hockey/zoo activity. It occurred to me that minor league athletes must be tasked with participating in lots of awkward marketing events. "Alright, we're going to need one of you to charmingly give your jersey to a fan in the middle of the game. Come on, fellas. Whose turn is it? Anyone who says no has to be at the Zoo tomorrow."
Much to everyone's delight, there were two fights on the ice during Friday night's game. I was surprised at how thrilled I was to scream encouragement at two grown men slapping each other while attempting not to slip on an ice rink. Several die-hard fans stood against the plastic protecting the fans from the game and banged on it, like frenzied inmates in an icy asylum.
Just like most other sporting events, concessioners make their way through the stands selling drinks and snacks. I became particularly fascinated by several of these hard workers, and at one point noted to Chuck, "I like that one. I bet he has samurai swords displayed on his bedroom wall." We agreed that Cow Palace concessioners would make an amazing reality show. While the hockey team was certainly interesting, and in many cases, gorgeous, the folks in food sales must have drama and intrigue of their own. Do they get to pick what they sell? Do they fight over it? Do they date each other?
While I'm not the most enthusiastic sports fan, attending the game was a blast. The smaller scale of a minor league event meant everything was easier, cheaper, and more personal. We parked close, tickets were inexpensive, we played games, waited mere minutes in lines, saw fights, and enjoyed some spectacular people-watching. Oh, and the Bulls won 4-1. This Friday is Country Western Night, and the first 1,000 fans over 18 receive a foam Bulls cowboy hat. That kind of awesomeness speaks for itself. Go Bulls!
*I really wanted that jersey.

NAGC works to support those who enhance the growth and development of gifted and talented children through education, advocacy, community building, and research
At the turn of the twentieth century, advancements in education and psychology brought empirical and scientific credibility to the field of gifted education. The early studies of giftedness in the 1920s and 30s evolved from research on mental inheritance, subnormal children, construction of instruments to measure both the sub and supernormal, and the realization that graded schools could not adequately meet the needs of all children. Pioneers, such as Lewis Terman and Leta Hollingworth, spearheaded the movement and conducted some of the first widely published research studies on gifted children.
The field of gifted education continued to evolve mainly in response to the changing needs of the country, especially after the Soviet Union's launch of Sputnik in the late 1950s. Further legislative efforts by the federal government in the early 1970s brought the plight of gifted school children back into the spotlight. The definition of giftedness also expanded along with programming options now available for gifted students.
Toward the close of the twentieth century, the Jacob Javits Gifted and Talented Students Education Act funded such entities as the National Research Center on the Gifted and Talented and provided grant monies for gifted education research. A Nation at Risk (1983) and National Excellence: A Case For Developing America's Talent (1993), reports issued by the federal government, highlighted the missed opportunities to identify and serve gifted students nationally. In turn, a call was made for additional research and programming in the field of gifted education. The issuance of national standards by the National Association for Gifted Children also helped solidify the field's intent and provide school districts across the country with a set of programming criteria. Published in 2004, A Nation Deceived reported on the advantages of acceleration for gifted children, which illustrated America's inability to properly meet the needs of its most able students despite the overwhelming research supporting acceleration.
The twenty-first century represents a new era where the possibilities are limitless and, hopefully, the future for gifted and talented children will be a national priority.
Key Dates in Gifted and Talented Education
|William Torrey Harris, superintendent of public schools for St. Louis, institutes the earliest systematic efforts in public schools to educate gifted students.
|Francis Galton's seminal work, Hereditary Genius, is published indicating that intelligence was passed through successive generations. His biographical study of over 400 British men throughout history leads him to conclude through statistical methods that intelligence was derived from heredity and natural selection.
|Worcester, Massachusetts opened the first special school for gifted children.
|French researchers, Binet and Simon, develop a series of tests (Binet-Simon) to identify children of inferior intelligence for the purpose of separating them from normally functioning children for placement in special classrooms. Their notion of mental age revolutionizes the science of psychological testing by capturing intelligence in a single numerical outcome.
|Henry Goddard studies in France with Binet and is introduced to the Binet-Simon measurement scales. Subsequently, he ferries the test back to American in order to translate it into English and disseminate it to American educators and psychologists.
|Lewis Terman, the "father" of the gifted education movement, publishes the Stanford-Binet, forever changing intelligence testing and the face of American education.
|The United States' entry into World War I necessitates the mobilization of a large scale army. The Army Alpha and Beta were created and administered to over one million recruits, further legitimatizing intelligence testing in both academia and with the general public.
|Lulu Stedman establishes an "opportunity room" for gifted students within the University Training School at the Southern Branch of the University of California.
|Lewis Terman begins what has remained the longest running longitudinal study of gifted children with an original sample of 1,500 gifted children.
|Leta S. Hollingworth begins the Special Opportunity Class at P. S. 165 in New York City for gifted students. This class would yield nearly forty research articles, a textbook, and blueprints for Hollingworth's work at P. S. 500, the Speyer School.
|Lewis Terman publishes Genetic Studies of Genius, concluding that gifted students were: (a) qualitatively different in school, (b) slightly better physically and emotionally in comparison to normal students, (c) superior in academic subjects in comparison to the average students, (d) emotionally stable, (e) most successful when education and family values were held in high regard by the family, and (f) infinitely variable in combination with the number of traits exhibited by those in the study. This is the first volume in a five-volume study spanning nearly 40 years.
|Leta Hollingworth publishes Gifted Children: Their Nature and Nurture, which is considered to be the first textbook on gifted education.
|Hollingworth establishes P. S. 500, the Speyer School, for gifted children ages 7-9.
|G.I Bill of Rights making a college education available to veterans from World War II who would otherwise not have had the opportunity to pursue higher education.
|J. P. Guilford gives the key note address at the annual APA convention, challenging an examination of intelligence as a multidimensional construct.
|National Science Foundation Act provides federal support for research and education in mathematics, physical sciences, and engineering.
|The National Association of Gifted Children is founded under the leadership of Ann Isaacs.
|Brown vs. the Board of Education ends "separate but equal education."
|The Soviet Union launches Sputnik, sparking the United States to reexamine its human capital and quality of American schooling particularly in mathematics and science. As a result, substantial amounts of money pour into identifying the brightest and talented students who would best profit from advanced math, science, and technology programming.
|The National Defense Education Act passes. This is the first large-scale effort in gifted education by the federal government.
|The Civil Rights Act passes, emphasizing equal opportunities including those in education.
|The Marland Report-The first formal definition is issued encouraging schools to define giftedness broadly, along with academic and intellectual talent the definition includes leadership ability, visual and performing arts, creative or productive thinking, and psychomotor ability. [Note: psychomotor ability is excluded from subsequent revisions of the federal definition.]
|The Office of the Gifted and Talented housed within the U.S. Office of Education is given official status.
|Public Law 94-142 The Education for all Handicapped Children Act establishes a federal mandate to serve children with special education needs, but does not include children with gifts and talents.
|A Nation at Risk reports scores of America's brightest students and their failure to compete with international counterparts. The report includes policies and practices in gifted education, raising academic standards, and promoting appropriate curriculum for gifted learners.
|Congress passes the Jacob Javits Gifted and Talented Students Education Act as part of the Reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act.
|The National Research Center on the Gifted and Talented was established at the University of Connecticut and included researchers at the University of Virginia, Yale University, and the University of Georgia. [Note: funding for the NRC ended in 2012.]
|National Excellence : The Case for Developing America's Talent, issued by the U.S. Department of Education, outlines how America neglects its most talented youth. The report also makes a number of recommendations influencing the last decade of research in the field of gifted education.
|NAGC publishes Pre-K-Grade 12 Gifted Program Standards to provide guidance in seven key areas for programs serving gifted and talented students. The standards were revised in 2010 as Pre-K-Grade 12 Gifted Programming Standards.
|The No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) is passed as the reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. The Javits program is included in NCLB, and expanded to offer competitive statewide grants. The definition of gifted and talented students is modified again: Students, children, or youth who give evidence of high achievement capability in areas such as intellectual, creative, artistic, or leadership capacity, or in specific academic fields, and who need services and activities not ordinarily provided by the school in order to fully develop those capabilities.
|A Nation Deceived: How Schools Hold Back America's Brightest Students, a national research-based report on acceleration strategies for advanced learners is published by the Belin-Blank Center at the University of Iowa.
|NAGC publishes national gifted education standards for teacher preparation programs and knowledge and skill standards in gifted education for all teachers. The standards were revised in 2013.

The DLX 17 flat-bottom skiffs can be used for work or play. The DLX can be used for almost anything. From a day of fishing, cruising or commercial boating, to search and recuse, filming or photography. The stable, durable and fuel efficient DLX can carry more weight further and faster using less horsepower. You could say the is like a pickup truck of the boating world. The DLX draws very little water, so getting back into the shallow areas isn't an issue for the flatbottom skiff. The DLX-17 is a patented hull design with bow splash guards to help keep you dry from bow over spray. The DLX also has positive tracking keels on the running surface, keeping the boat tracking true while maneuvering without the typical flat-bottom slide.

Isaac Heller Donates $1 Million to Annual Fund
POSTED ON: March 7, 2013
President Bharucha surprised The Cooper Union community with the announcement of a $1 million unrestricted gift to the school's Annual Fund from Helaine and Isaac Heller (Eng'52). "This unrestricted gift represents not only philanthropic leadership, but a vote of confidence in the future of The Cooper Union," the president wrote in an email to students, faculty and alumni, offering his "deepest gratitude" to the Hellers.
"When I read in the New York Times that Cooper might not be able to make it, I thought I would do the right thing," Mr. Heller said from his home in Florida. "Cooper was a great place. I sincerely feel that my years there changed my professional life."
"This is what we work towards," says Jeanne Lunin, Director of Development, who got special thanks in the president's announcement. "This gift is very encouraging and extremely helpful because it's unrestricted." Derek Wittner, Vice President for Alumni Affairs and Development, notes that "Annual Fund gifts are directed toward paying educational costs for our students. They are especially important to Cooper now because they can be used immediately."

Jeanne Lunin downplays her role in acquiring the gift, instead giving credit to Isaac's brother, Paul Heller (ME'53), who was instrumental in the process. "I got to know Paul and Paul encouraged me to reach out to Isaac," she says. "Knowing that Cooper was at a crucial point, Isaac was moved to help. I was hopeful we would receive a gift. We were all ecstatic when it arrived."
Born in the Catskill Mountains, "Ike" Heller, 86, moved to Brooklyn when he was 12 and attended Brooklyn Technical High School. He started at the Cooper Union night school in 1943 and left a year later to join the Navy. He returned in 1946. While still a student Heller co-founded REMCO Toys in the late 1940s, which would go on to become one the biggest toy manufacturers in the post-war years, solidifying its place in Baby Boomer culture through its television commercials. Mr. Heller sold the company in 1966 and went into commercial real estate, leading a company that would eventually become Heller Industrial Parks, Inc., one of the nation's largest privately owned industrial park owner/developers.
Mr. Heller has given consistently to The Cooper Union over the years, enough so that he and his wife were to have been inducted into the Abram S. Hewitt Society on Thursday for their lifetime contributions of over $250,000. But their extraordinary gift has vaulted them into the Peter Cooper Heritage Society of lifetime donors who give over $1 million. Paul Heller will be present to accept the honor.

It is so very often that the people who provide superior service & support do not receive the praise and complements they so richly deserve. I have looked through the postings here and have seen other users give praise to the Cryptostorm team, but instead of replying to those posts and risking the chance of mine not being seen, I decided to start a new thread. The people who make up the Cryptostorm team certainly deserve all the compliments they get. So, kudos to Cryptostorm for their superior service and support!
I would also like to single out one individual for his excellent support and willingness to deal with my n00b questions and rantings. Fermi responded to my support request, and provide a solution, in a timely manner. During that time, there was a lot of back and forth between him and I, but he never once made me feel like I was some idiot or in any way not welcome. When helping me with my situation, He always provided me with a wealth of information so that I could better understand what the problem might be and how it could be fixed. He answered all of my questions (even the n00b ones), and all the answers he provided were explained in a manner that was easily understood. It's a rare talent for someone to have, that they take the time and have the patience to provide the support the customer needs, and have that customer come away completely satisfied.
Because of all this, I would have no problems what so ever in referring someone who needed VPN service to Cryptostorm. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt, whether that person was to be a complete newbie or someone with experience, they would be completely satisfied with Cryptostorm's service.
Fantastic job guys, and keep up the good work!
