EASLEY – After three full seasons at the helm of the Green Wave, Head coach, Chad Smith has compiled a 29-9 record resulting in three consecutive playoff appearances.
"Our kids have done a wonderful job buying in to what we do and our coaches do a fabulous job of coaching them. The results speak for themselves, three playoff appearances in a row is an impressive feat especially considering the school's 1-21 record in the two years prior to our staff's arrival, " Smith said. This is the first time in school history that the team has made it to the playoffs three years in a row and also in the last two years, the old scoring records have fallen twice."
The year before Coach Smith's arrival, the Easley squad went 1-10 which was an improvement over the previous year's 0-11 record.
"Our coaching staff is second to none in the state, and I think we have the best coaching staff in the state of South Carolina. They do a wonderful job on a weekly basis of preparing our kids, our kids do a wonderful job of preparing, and our kids do a wonderful job in the weight room year round," Smith said. "We are a lot stronger than we were four years ago and hopefully we will continue to improve. We want to be a consistent winner, we want to be something that Easley can be proud of, and we want to compete on a championship level."
If there is one criticism of Coach Smith's three years at Easley, it would be the run first mentality of his double wing offense.
"Number one, this offense may not be flashy, but we scored more points the last two years than any team in Easley High School history, and that's including state championship teams. The second thing, I firmly believe that you have to hang your hat on something to be successful," Smith said. "I believe football is a game of extremes, and I think the successful programs out there do that."
Programs like Byrnes and Hartsville have enjoyed championship success with their styles of play.
"Hartsville won a state championship this year running the football 95 percent of the time and Byrnes wins state championships throwing it 95 percent of the time. You pick what you know how to do and you get so good at it that nobody can stop you. We are not there yet, but I am hard-headed and we will continue to do this as long as I am head coach and I hope people support that," Smith said. "There are plenty of teams around that throw it, and we've beaten every one of them. I think our toughness pays off in the end. Sooner or later we will bring a state championship back."
Smith will enter his fourth season with five returning starters on offense including rushing standout, C.J. Fuller, and five returning starters on defense with division one prospect, Quaven Ferguson.
"Going into next year, we lost some extremely talented seniors, but the group we've got coming up is an extremely special group and they are hard working. We may not be as deep as we have been in the last two years, but I think we will have more than enough fight in us to be competitive on a state level and I am really looking forward to it," Smith said.

NEW YORK — The Big Apple is getting another "biggest": the world's tallest Ferris wheel, part of an ambitious plan to draw New Yorkers and tourists alike to the city's so-called "forgotten borough."
The 625-foot-tall, $230 million New York Wheel is to grace a spot in Staten Island overlooking the 305-foot-tall Statue of Liberty and the downtown Manhattan skyline, offering a singular view as it sweeps higher than other big wheels like the Singapore Flyer, the London Eye and a "High Roller" planned for Las Vegas.
Designed to carry 1,440 passengers at a time, it's expected to draw 4.5 million people a year to a setting that also would include a 100-shop outlet mall and a 200-room hotel.
It will be "an attraction unlike any other in New York City — in fact, it will be, we think, unlike any other on the planet," Mayor Michael Bloomberg said as he unveiled the plans against the backdrop of New York Harbor. While the privately financed project faces various reviews, officials hope to have the wheel turning by the end of 2015.
The wheel would put Staten Island on the map of superlatives in a place where "biggest" is almost an expectation — home to the nation's biggest city population, busiest mass-transit system, even the biggest Applebee's restaurant.
The attraction stands to change the profile of the least populous and most remote of the city's five boroughs, a sometime municipal underdog that has taken insults from New Jersey and was once known for having the world's largest ... landfill.
"It's going to be a real icon. The Ferris wheel will be Staten Island's Eiffel Tower," Sen. Charles Schumer enthused.
As a visible addition to the skyline around the harbor, the wheel "gives Staten Island an identity beyond its role as a suburban community," while letting it tap into the stream of tourist money in a city that drew 50.9 million visitors last year, said Mitchell Moss, a New York University urban policy professor.
The project is expected to bring $500 million in private investment and 1,100 permanent jobs to the borough's St. George waterfront, and the developers will pay the city $2.5 million a year in rent for the land.
Staten Island isn't entirely off the tourist map. Its free ferry is the city's third-largest tourist attraction, carrying an estimated 2 million visitors a year alongside millions of residents, officials say. Continued...
But the city has long struggled to entice tourists off the boat and into Staten Island. Much-touted Staten Island sightseeing bus tours fizzled within a year in 2009 for lack of ridership.
Australian tourists Leah Field and Adam Lica, for example, were riding the ferry Thursday for its views of the Statue of Liberty. They thought they might have lunch on the Staten Island side but weren't planning to explore further.
"We weren't sure what there is to do there," explained Lica, 32, of Melbourne. But were there a giant Ferris wheel, the couple likely would go ride it, he said.
But Henriette Repmann, a German university student, said she wouldn't bother.
"You don't have to have the biggest Ferris wheel in the world to get a good view of New York," Repmann, 20, of Leipzig, said Thursday as she visited the Empire State Building.
Largely a bedroom community for other parts of the city, Staten Island boasts about 470,000 residents and a minor league ballpark, cultural sites and quirky attractions, from locations in the video for Madonna's "Papa Don't Preach" to the Staten Island Zoo, home to New York's answer to Pennsylvania's prognosticating groundhog. The Staten Island rodent bears the dubious distinction of having once bitten Bloomberg.
But Staten Island, the only one of the city's five boroughs not accessible by subway, tends to get overshadowed by its bigger neighbors, so much so that some have at times suggested it secede from the city.
And residents often bristle at an image shaped by such television shows as "Mob Wives" and "Big Ang" — and by a former New Jersey beach town mayor who portrayed Staten Islanders in a blog post as heavy on hairspray and light on class. (The ex-mayor, Ken Pringle of Belmar, visited Staten Island in 2008 to make amends.)
Resident Miatta Bryant thinks the wheel might bring the borough more respect.
"People always say Staten Island is so boring," the 26-year-old certified nursing assistant said. Continued...
The Ferris wheel, state Assemblyman Matthew Titone hopes, will show the world a different Staten Island than the one they see on TV.
"They will see our cultural institutions and will see that we are not idiots," he said. "Shirtless, musclebound idiots."

Dun Laoghaire / Rathdown County Hall
- Architect:
McCullogh Mulvin / Robinson Keefe Devane - Award Type:
Regional Award 1998 - Location: Dublin
Dublin - Over £200,000
The completed winning entry to the Dun Laoighaire / Rathdown County Hall (RIAI Managed) two stage competition, fulfils its initial design promise. It is both modern in its expression and understanding of its context. The elevational composition, scale and materials harmonise with the existing buildings to create a coherent architectural entity. The internal concourse and winter garden form a powerful central arena reinforcing the identity and dignity of a significant public building.
Architect's Comment
Dun Laoighaire / Rathdown County Hall is - as built - virtually identical to the competition winning design of 1994. Extending from the 19th century Town Hall and POst Office, the internal concourse with its 8m high sliding doors and green technology, providesa memorable heart to the complex.
Clients Comment
The form of the building 'knitting' together the old and the new neatly symolises the joining of the Dun Laoighaire / Rathdown areas; the central concourse brings the community right into the heart of the nuilding.

He Said I Can/It Hurts To Be Alone
7-inch (Item 589119) Daptone, 2011 — Condition: New Copy
Slinky, funky soul from the world famous Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings – plus a great cover on the flip! "He Said I Can" is a killer from the I Learned The Hard Way sessions – a rawer, funkier number that reminds a bit more some the earlier material from the group – with really great organ groove driving it along, along with Sharon's always passionate voice. A great one that they play live a whole lot – so we're plenty pleased to have such a great recording on 45! The flip is a tender, beautiful soulful cover of "It Hearts To Be Alone" – originally recorded by The Wailers way back in '64, and done in a timeless soul mode by the Daptone team. © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

Don't cut water quality testing | LETTER TO THE EDITOR
December 31, 2012 · 11:59 AM
To the editor:
At the Bainbridge City Council meeting of Oct. 24, Councilman David Ward suggested that the recently awarded contract for support services for the city's Water Quality and Flow Monitoring Program be terminated for 2013 and subsequent years.
This work is a support contract for the city program that recently produced the State of the Island's Waters report. This report presented evidence that of the 16 streams that had been monitored on the Island; the only one that met state water quality standards for bacteria was the reference watershed of Cooper Creek, which is the least developed watershed on the Island.
Since the total budget for this program is only around $180,000 per year, by terminating this on-call contract, which is budgeted for approximately $78,000 in 2013, the council will be cutting the overall budget for the Water Quality and Flow Monitoring Program by approximately 40 percent.
The city's Water Quality and Flow Monitoring Program is supported by the efforts of several volunteers who work for no pay because they feel that this data is important to the Island's future. The on-call support contract that Councilman Ward wants to cut is for flow and water quality and stream bed sampling during periods when city staff and volunteers are not available. I doubt whether the majority of Islanders favor reducing to this degree support for a program that has uncovered significant evidence of pollution on Bainbridge Island.
Water quality protection is a highly valued goal of the Bainbridge Island community. The second-listed of the overriding goals of the Bainbridge Comprehensive Plan is to "Protect fragile water resources." We cannot know if these resources are being protected without measuring the flow and quality of our streams.
Flow and water quality monitoring of the Springbrook Creek watershed is required as part of a state Department of Ecology TMDL or "Total Maximum Daily Load" study for Sinclair and Dyes Inlets. So this work, at least, will need to continue. Remaining monitoring, while not strictly required by state mandates, is crucially important to help understand why so many of Bainbridge's streams are polluted and to find the causes.
It has been suggested that only the flow monitoring part of this support contract be terminated.
I urge the council to keep the entire amount of the contract; however, since flow monitoring together with water quality sampling is crucial for the next step of the work in the Water Quality and Flow Monitoring Program. The reason for the flow monitoring is to determine the mass rate of pollutants that are being discharged from a stream to Puget Sound. The load that is referenced in the acronym TMDL is the product of the flow in the stream times the pollutant concentration. The concentration is the "quality" part of the load.
Without flow, the mass rate of pollutants (the load) cannot be determined.
I hope this helps to clarify why both flow and water quality monitoring are so important for the Island and hope that the council can keep funding on-call support for the Water Quality and Flow Monitoring Program for 2013 and consider funding for future years based on the demonstrated results of the work.

«That all may be one» (Jn. 17,21)
We were born for these words, for unity, to give a contribution to its realization in the world. Chiara Lubich

Viernes 05 de Marzo de 2010 | |||
There are no translations available. 2010 Annual Luminosa Award for Unity For outstanding contribution to universal brotherhood Sunday, March 14, 2010 - Mariapolis Luminosa, 200 Cardinal Road, Hyde Park, New York The Luminosa Award begun in 1988 recognizes persons or associations whose lives and works have given a significant contribution to building bridges of mutual understanding and concern among the diverse Christian denominations and major faith traditions and all people of good will in all aspects of social life. A celebration of family lifeThis year's award ceremony will be a celebration of families who bear witness with their lives to the beauty and fullness of marriage and to family unity – a gift of God who is Love – that makes the family a true haven of love that heals all ills. It will be part of a program commemorating the second anniversary of Focolare founder Chiara Lubich's death. The morning program will celebrate the life of Chiara Lubich highlighting the impact her spirituality of unity has had on family life the world over. Reaching millions of people in 182 countries, today the Focolare (focolare.org) aims at bringing oneness to the entire human family by promoting a lifestyle of unity in all sphere of society. 2010 Honorees: Howard and Rose BelcherAmong the first families of the Focolare in North America who have given an outstanding contribution to universal brotherhood through the promotion of a lifestyle of unity beginning with the basic unit of society, the family. In the 1960s, as newly-weds they embraced the spirituality of unity and allowed it to inform their lives as a couple and as parents to five sons. In 1986, they moved with their two younger sons to give their contribution to the building of Mariapolis Luminosa, the national center of Focolare located in Hyde Park. They have worked tirelessly over the past 24 years, giving their concrete help, as well as spiritual support to the success of its endeavors. They are the first married couple to receive this award. Past Luminosa Award recipients include:
The programs will begin at 10:30am and conclude at 4:00pm. A reception will follow the award ceremony. Tickets (include lunch): Adults $20; Youth (13-17) $15.

Social Media Won The Super Bowl, Okay Not Really
We're all sitting on our couches recovering from Beyonce's half time performance with our iPhones, iPads and laptops ready, waiting with anticipation for the next great tweet opportunity when the moment strikes. The power goes out at the Super Bowl. (!!!) What do we DO? The Twitter kids had been eagerly dissecting all the TV commercials and then for a solid 30 minutes or so there was nothing to talk about. NOTHING!
Oh, hey guys. Look at this:
This was a great use of real-time marketing for a few reasons:
What's the difference between usability and user experience?
Last Friday we were fortunate to partner with UXPA Iowa to host a lunch and learn at Catchfire Media to learn more about usability and user experience.
Keith Kmett, CUA delivered an excellent presentation explaining basic definitions of the two concepts. While the two are closely related, usability and user experience are different, particularly because both disciplines care greatly about user satisfaction.
User experience
Discussion Explores Social Media Support for Tradeshow Events
On December 11, four members of a public relations team at Two Rivers Marketing lead panel discussion to showcase different social media tactics supporting tradeshow efforts. The two shows they focused on were SEMA and FABTECH, both held in November in Las Vegas. The client at the center of these efforts for both of these shows is Miller Electric Mfg. Co., a leading manufacturer of welding and cutting equipment based in Appleton, Wis.
Before 2013...
Do you still have a million things to do before the end of this year? Like finally updating your LinkedIn profile or teaching your mom how to use Facebook? One of my goals for 2012 was to get more involved in Des Moines and do a bit more networking. Thanks to the Social Media Club of Des Moines (SMCDSM), I've actually managed to cross that one off my to-do list before 2013!
So if you're hanging out this week wishing you had a few more friends or new people to follow on Instagram, think of us. The SMCDSM is perfect for networking as well as socializing. Afterall, "social" is part of our name.
Highlights from The Future of the Marketing Agency at Spindusty Digital
By Alex Guzik
The world of marketing is undergoing a transformation. The traditional pillars of marketing theory such as, "define your audience," "the four p's of marketing" and the "statistically significant sample" have been blown apart by emerging technologies and trends. This was the basis for Spindustry Digital's presentation to the Social Media Club of Des Moines on the evening of November 7.

Welcome Aboard
If women logged hours on a breast pump the way pilots log hours in airplanes, I'd be doing long-haul flights to Beijing by now. Seriously. By my rough estimates, at this point in my nine-month-old's life (and this is not math I recommend doing), I have pumped at least 3,000 ounces of breast milk for her and her older sister, neither of whom have been given formula. That's a whole lot of hours hooked up to the milk machine.
From hour one, I loved nursing—the closeness, the convenience, the feeling of being able to provide exactly what my baby needed, whenever she needed it. I also loved my job, and the benefits it provided—like, you know, food to eat and a roof over my head. So, like most over-educated mothers who waited probably until they should have known better to have babies, I spent a lot of time reading everything I could about how to pump milk for my baby once I went back to work.
There's no shortage of advice about what works, and that's great—get all the advice you can. But having been through this a couple of times now, I've learned several things that are the opposite of everything I read about successfully giving a baby breast milk without the breast. Here's the advice that no one gave me.

Sons and Lovers

Based on 81 Ratings and 81 Reviews |
Book Description
Sons and Lovers was the first modern portrayal of a phenomenon that later, thanks to Freud, became easily recognizable as the Oedipus complex. Never was a son more indentured to his mother's love and full of hatred for his father than Paul Morel, D.H. Lawrence's young protagonist. Never, that is, except perhaps Lawrence himself. In his 1913 novel he grappled with the discordant loves that haun... More

CD/LP/Track Review
Debbie Deane: Free Time
Sometimes a new face just seems to come out of the blue. A talent that wasnt there and just then was. For Debbie Deane, as with most talents, it was the usual decade plus 'overnight' success that just appeared that way. Judging from those she chose to accompany her on her maiden voyage, she did it right though.
When you first hear the soulful voice of Deane you might think of other another soul chanteuse or two. Deane credits Aretha for her piano influence but its not a far cry to hear some of Franklin's emotive vocal signature within her own delivery.
Joined here by an amazingly varied array of New York's current crop of top sidemen, including Josh Redman, Wayne Krantz, Jeff Andrews and Brian Blade, Deane delves into personal experience and various aspects and points of love, loss and beyond. So is it sophisticated pop or the have-groove-will-travel brand of jazz? In reality, its both and both done well. For the apparent influences its just cool and different and that's a lot more than one is likely to get for the most part these days.
Of those influences easily heard in the music itself are Steely Dan (harmonically especially on "Hit the Rewind" and "Kari") and at times other singer/songwriters like Joni, Raitt, Ricki Lee, Jewel, Sheryl Crow, Tori Amos, Alanis, Alana Davis. Great company for sure.
Deane has a languid, yet crisp and emotive delivery, soul to burn and has just deservedly scored a German licensing deal with a tour to follow next year. Here's a thought: let's not let Europe 'discover' her before we show we have the taste and hipness to beat them to it.
Other standouts include "Kari" and "Tell Me", where Redman shines brilliantly and Debbie's pleading, autobiographical, jazz phrasing on the latter books a journey we all know all too well. "These Are the Words" displays Deane's gospel power on the shout chorus and "That Can be Arranged" is a breathy reading against a tight acoustic funk groove with modal vamp. All great tunes.
I wish all debuts could be as strong as this one and its not due just to the the stellar sidemen, though they do add some amazing depth, groove and color to the arrangements. It's the heart and soul of the artist's music and vision. In a word, soul.
Track Listing: 1. Finally Free, 2. Mother Mary, 3. Sunday Morning Dawn, 4. Baby, 5. Don't Let Me Go This Way, 6. Hit The Rewind, 7. Kari, 8. These Are The Words, 9. Good To Me, 10. Tell Me, 11. That Can Be Arranged, 12. Piece Of Your Heart.
Personnel: Debbie Deane - piano/vox, Joshua Redman - saxophone, Brian Blade - drums, Wayne Krantz - acoustic guitar, Jeff Andrews - bass, Rodney Holmes - drums, Phil Markowitz - keys/B3, Pete Levin - keys, Rich Hammond - bass, Gilad - percussion, Dawn Andrews - cello, Sherryl Marshall - back. vox.

Twinlab's Cardio Krill Oil contains the revolutionary, 100% pure, patented Neptune Krill Oil (NKO) with unique phospholipids not available in fish oils. NKO phospholipids contain substantially high quantities of EPA (75 mg) and DHA (45 mg). Unlike other sources of omega-3, this fatty acid profile aids recognition by the body based on its resemblance to the human brain's own phospholipids. Research shows the NKO regulates blood lipids already within desired levels.
In addition to this cutting edge omega-3 ingredient, Twinlab's Cardio Krill is unique because it contains vitamins B6, B12 and folic acid to help support a healthy heart. Studies have shown that B-vitamins can help maintain healthy homocysteine levels, a protein which can build up in the blood. Cardio Krill Oil helps maintain cholesterol levels that are already within the normal range, while it may also reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.**
**Consumption of omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. FDA evaluated the data and determined that, although there is scientific evidence supporting the claim, the evidence is not conclusive.
What is Neptune Krill Oil (NKO)?
Using the patented process (US Patent No.:6,800,299 B1), Neptune Krill Oil is extracted from the zooplankton crustacean found in the Antarctic Ocean. The rapidly repopulating krill assures a plentiful, sustainable harvest of nature's finest omega-3 oils.
Twinlab's Cardio Krill Oil is harvested, processed and tested to be free of PCB and toxic metals. Also, due to the fact that the omega-3 in NKO has superior antioxidant activity, there will be no fishy "repeats" (burp-ups).
Why Twinlab Cardio Krill Oil?
Efficacy - Contains a unique and substantial offering of EPA (75 mg) and DHA (45 mg), the two most commonly deficient polyunsaturated fatty acids in the typical diet, thus being more efficacious and of higher value. The NKO fatty acid profile resembles that of a human brain's own phospholipids, making it easier to be recognized by the body.
Uniqueness - Consists of unique marine flavonoids which are not found in other non-plant sources. These natural marine flavonoids facilitate bioavailability of antioxidants in the product.
Superiority - Possesses proven, superior antioxidants such as vitamin A, E, esterified astaxanthin and marine flavonoids, Laboratory testing shows that the antioxidant activity in NKO is 48 times greater than fish oils tested. NKO had an antioxidant activity (ORAC lipoFL) of 378 compared to other tested fish oils, which only had 8. ORAC is bio-analytical test that evaluates antioxidant activity against harmful radicals.
As a dietary supplement, take 1 softgel daily with a meal or snack.
Store in a cool, dry place.
People with seafood allergy, coagulopathy or taking anticoagulants or other medications should notify their physician and be tested prior to taking this product.

Remembering The Victims In Aurora
Coroner's office releases names from theater shooting in Colorado
It's a sad roll call for what was supposed to be an exciting weekend of summer's biggest movie, "The Dark Knight Rises."
The names of the 12 people killed by a gunman in Aurora, Colo., early Friday morning have been released by the Arapahoe County Coroner's Office, and Airlock Alpha is stepping back to remember those innocent lives lost.
Much of the background information was obtained through CNN and other news outlets, some through Airlock Alpha's own research.
Jonathan T. Blunk, 26
Jonathan attended "The Dark Knight Rises" with a friend, Jansen Young, and reportedly threw her to the floor and protected her from the bullets once the shooting started, according to KRNV-Channel 4 in Reno. He spent five years in the U.S. Navy based out of San Diego, and leaves behind a 4-year-old daughter and a 2-year-old son. He also leaves behind his estranged wife, Chantel Blunk, who said she was informed of her husband's passing Friday evening.
Alexander J. Boik, 18
Alexander attended the screening with his girlfriend and a friend, and was a student at nearby Gateway High School, according to CNN. He was a lacrosse player who also worked as an independent distributor for the coffee company Organa Gold.
Jesse E. Childress, 29
Jesse was a staff sergeant with the U.S. Air Force based out of Buckley Air Force Base in Colorado. "This tragic event has affected everybody here at Buckley Air Force Base and our local community friends and neighbors," base commander Col Daniel Dant said in a statement to The Denver Post. "We are deeply saddened by the loss of each and every loved one." Three members of Childress' squadron arrived at the Century 16 theater in Aurora Saturday to remember their fallen soldier.
Gordon W. Cowden, 51
Gordon was the oldest of the victims in the shooting spree, and leaves behind a family of at least a son, according to the Twitter aggregation site Twitchy. His son Weston Cowden, according to his personal Facebook page, is a student at the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy in Kings Point, N.Y., and is a member of the Class of 2015 there.
Jessica Ghawi, 24
Jessica was one of the first victims to be identified by the media, an up-and-coming journalist who would use the name Jessica Redfield. She had actually just escaped another shooting in Toronto the month before that left one person dead and seven injured. She actually reflected on that incident in her personal blog, according to CNN: "I was shown how fragile life was on Saturday. I saw the terror on bystanders' faces. I saw the victims of a senseless crime. I saw lives change. I was reminded that we don't know when or where our time on Earth will end. When or where we will breathe our last breath."
John Thomas Larimer, 27
A third generation enlistee in the U.S. Navy, he was a Navy Petty Officer 3rd Class out of Buckley Air Force Base. He was originally from Crystal Lake, Ill. "I am incredibly saddened by the loss of Petty Officer John Larimer -- he was an outstanding shipmate," Cmdr. Jeffrey Jakuboski, Larimer's commanding officer, told CNN. "A valued member of our Navy team, he will be missed by all who knew him. My heart goes out to John's family, friends and loved ones, as well as to all the victims of this horrible tragedy."
Matthew R. McQuinn, 27
Matthew died trying to protect his girlfriend, Samantha Yowler, from the bullets, along with her brother, Nick Yowler. He was successful -- both Yowlers survived. Originally from Ohio, the couple moved to Denver last November.
Micayla C. Medek, 23
Cayla, as she was known to her friends, was an employee at a Subway sandwich shop in Aurora, and was said to be very spiritual. She was a student at the Community College of Aurora with plans to graduate in 2015. She described herself on Facebook as "a simple independent girl who's just trying to get her life together while still having fun."
Veronica Moser-Sullivan, 6
By far the youngest victim in the shooting, Veronica attended the film premiere with her mother, Ashley Moser. Ashley, however, is one of 11 people who remains hospitalized with bullet wounds, and has been floating in and out of consciousness, according to The Inquisitr. Annie Daulton, Veronica's aunt, told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that Ashley keeps asking about her daughter, but that family members don't have the heart to tell her Veronica passed away. "She was a vibrant 6-year-old," Daulton said. "She was excited, she'd just learned how to swim. She was a great little girl, excited about life -- she should be at 6 years old."
Alex M. Sullivan, 27
Alex was actually an employee at the Century 16 who took the night off so that he could celebrate his birthday watching "The Dark Knight Rises." It was also just days before his first anniversary with his wife, Cassie Sullivan. "The Sullivan family lost a cherished member of their family," the family said in a statement to CNN. "Alex was smart, funny, and above all, loved dearly by his friends and family."
Alexander C. Teves, 24
Alexander was a recent graduate of the University of Denver, and in June, graduated with a master's degree in counseling psychology from the Morgridge College of Education. He was a native of Phoenix. His aunt, Barbara Slivinske of New Jersey, described him as "a wonderful nephew."
Rebecca Ann Wingo, 32
Rebecca, a mother of two, was given a touching tribute by her father on Facebook soon after the shooting as he tried to come to terms with her passing. "I lost my daughter yesterday to a mad man. My grief right now is inconsolable," Steve Hernandez wrote. "I hear she died instantly, without pain. However, the pain is unbearable. Lord why, why, why? I sit here and resist this entry. However, I feel I must, in digest, in dismay, in prayer, I love you my daughter Rebecca. We all will miss you."

Benjamin Cardin on EducationDemocratic Jr Senator (MD) |
Cardin selected, "Yes."
Cardin adds, "I have met with numerous young students who develop an interest in science and technology once they learn about the career opportunities available to them. For this reason, I am a strong supporter of increased funding for the National Science Foundation. Additionally, last fall, I was pleased to join Sen. Mikulski in announcing a $3 million U.S. Department of Education grant to Baltimore City Public Schools to use innovative methods, such as robotics instruction and career mentors, to strengthen the mathematics skills of middle school students and get more students involved in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) subjects. I will continue to support funding for these types of grant programs."
Proponents support voting YES because:
Rep. OBEY: This bill, more than any other, determines how willing we are to make the investment necessary to assure the future strength of this country and its working families. The President has chosen to cut the investments in this bill by more than $7.5 billion in real terms. This bill rejects most of those cuts.
Opponents recommend voting NO because:
Rep. LEWIS: This bill reflects a fundamental difference in opinion on the level of funding necessary to support the Federal Government's role in education, health and workforce programs. The bill is $10.2 billion over the President's budget request. While many of these programs are popular on both sides of the aisle, this bill contains what can rightly be considered lower priority and duplicative programs. For example, this legislation continues three different programs that deal with violence prevention. An omnibus bill is absolutely the wrong and fiscally reckless approach to completing this year's work. It would negate any semblance of fiscal discipline demonstrated by this body in recent years.
Veto message from President Bush:
This bill spends too much. It exceeds [by $10.2 billion] the reasonable and responsible levels for discretionary spending that I proposed to balance the budget by 2012. This bill continues to fund 56 programs that I proposed to terminate because they are duplicative, narrowly focused, or not producing results. This bill does not sufficiently fund programs that are delivering positive outcomes. This bill has too many earmarks--more than 2,200 earmarks totaling nearly $1 billion. I urge the Congress to send me a fiscally responsible bill that sets priorities.
Proponents support voting YES because:
I believe that our Pledge of Allegiance with its use of the phrase "under God" is entirely consistent with our Nation's cultural and historic traditions. I also believe that the Court holding that use of this phrase is unconstitutional is wrong. But this court-stripping bill is not necessary. This legislation would bar a Federal court, including the Supreme Court, from reviewing any claim that challenges the recitation of the Pledge on first amendment grounds.
If we are a Nation of laws, we must be committed to allowing courts to decide what the law is. This bill is unnecessary and probably unconstitutional. It would contradict the principle of Marbury v. Madison, intrude on the principles of separation of powers, and degrade our independent Federal judiciary.
Opponents support voting NO because:
I was disappointed 4 years ago when two judges of the Ninth US Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that our Pledge, our statement of shared national values, was somehow unconstitutional. I do not take legislation that removes an issue from the jurisdiction of this court system lightly. This legislation is appropriate, however, because of the egregious conduct of the courts in dealing with the Pledge of Allegiance.
By striking "under God" from the Pledge, the Court has shown contempt for the Congress which approved the language, and, more importantly, shows a complete disregard for the millions of Americans who proudly recite the Pledge as a statement of our shared national values and aspirations. No one is required to recite the Pledge if they disagree with its message.
The National Education Association has a long, proud history as the nation's leading organization committed to advancing the cause of public education. Founded in 1857 "to elevate the character and advance the interests of the profession of teaching and to promote the cause of popular education in the United States," the NEA has remained constant in its commitment to its original mission as evidenced by the current mission statement:
To fulfill the promise of a democratic society, the National Education Association shall promote the cause of quality public education and advance the profession of education; expand the rights and further the interest of educational employees; and advocate human, civil, and economic rights for all.In pursuing its mission, the NEA has determined that it will focus the energy and resources of its 2.7 million members toward the "promotion of public confidence in public education." The ratings are based on the votes the organization considered most important; the numbers reflect the percentage of time the representative voted the organization's preferred position.
A bill to amend the National School Lunch Act and the Child Nutrition Act of 1966 to require the exclusion of combat pay from income for purposes of determining eligibility for child nutrition programs and the special supplemental nutrition program for women, infants, and children.

Bike change: Stretch Armstrong

Bike change: Stretch Armstrong(This is a project that I started and never got past the mock up!) I have been kicking around a few ideas on what kind of bike to build for this BUILD OFF #6 and I think I have a winner ! I have been collecting parts and I finally can start this thing ! I'm not sure how to mount a MULLET on it though ! LOL!

Re: New build: Project nirve.Nirves are cool.
Hurry up, good luck, and have some fun!
Stretch Armstrong!I started with a beat up 20" full suspension bike.....chopping off the swing-arm ! I have built a bike similar to this idea, but it was a 26" stretch with a standard 26" frame!
Last edited by FLAT BLACK KUSTOMS on Mon May 23, 2011 12:22 pm, edited 1 time in total.
Stretch Armstrong!Next thing to do is get the frame in order.....Schwinn exercise bike that I had sandblasted ! I will be attaching the swing-arm to the exercise bike frame, making it as low as possible.
I went out and did a little bit of hacking/chopping and bending on the frame. This what I have come up with so far! I am going to try and use as many parts from the exercise bike as possible, such as : forks speedometer handlebars cranks pedals.....you get the idea ! This is just a mock-up, everything is just sitting. Nothing is welded! Last edited by FLAT BLACK KUSTOMS on Mon May 23, 2011 12:29 pm, edited 1 time in total.

Stretch Armstrong!I switched the fork legs around so the dropouts were facing forward or up...when it is all stable and bolted together it will be sooooo low !
I will be cutting the forks & re-positioning/welding the upper fork legs ...When this is done, I can use the plate that came with the exercise bike so I can remount the speedo and make the forks secure! I think I will leave the forks with the stand and make a quick release so I can use it for a kick stand !
Re: Bike change: Stretch ArmstrongIt was a great day yesterday and I finally got to do a little work on my new project! I was able to cut and reposition the fork legs! It is still @ mock up stage, but coming together. Im not sure about the seat yet either!
Re: Bike change: Stretch ArmstrongOnce I get the swingarm welded on and in place, I can actually be able to sit on it and and figure out where to put the bottom bracket!
Re: Bike change: Stretch ArmstrongThen I should clean my driveway! LOL!
Re: Bike change: Stretch ArmstrongI cleaned my driveway.....Now it's on!
Re: Bike change: Stretch ArmstrongThat's a radical design... the rules may have been bent a little thought.
Check out my Build-Off bike: ☆ 1936 Off-Roadmaster Klunker ☆
Re: Bike change: Stretch Armstrongrules? what are these things you speak of?
Re: Bike change: Stretch Armstrong
Behind every broken rule, is a good excuse!! My Favorite Color is Rust!
Re: Bike change: Stretch ArmstrongI think he is referring to rule #3:
3. Must use factory frame....no altering of original frame structure/geometry So, that means that this will be the BADDEST exercise bike on the planet! WOOOOOO!
Cheers, Dr. T
Re: Bike change: Stretch ArmstrongLeave rules to lawers, this is one sick ride for sure, so if you get disqualified at least you´ll end up with a mayor bad butt design!

Professional Land Surveyor News: Bentley Delivers New 3D City GIS Information Modeling Software to Enhance Design and Operation of Intelligent Cities
February 22, 2010 in Associate Membership, Bentley, Business, Land Surveying, News, Surveying Software
18 February 2010
Leveraging Its Leadership in Information Modeling, Bentley Advances GIS for 3D Cities by Releasing V8i (SELECTseries 1) Versions of Bentley Map, Bentley Descartes, Bentley Geospatial Server, and Bentley Geo Web Publisher
EXTON, Pa. – Bentley Systems, Incorporated, the leading company dedicated to providing comprehensive software solutions for the infrastructure that sustains our world, today announced breakthroughs in 3D geospatial information systems (GIS) software to support the design and operation of intelligent cities. Intelligent cities, and the intelligent infrastructure they incorporate, take full advantage of information modeling best practices. As a result, they are able to provide better performance with respect to safety, energy, lifecycle costing, and operational efficiency. Bentley's intra-operable portfolio of software features lifecycle support across all classes of intelligent infrastructure, including land management, power generation and energy delivery, water and wastewater networks, roads, bridges, rail, communications networks, and buildings. The just-released V8i(SELECTseries 1) versions of Bentley Map, Bentley Descartes, Bentley Geospatial Server, and Bentley Geo Web Publisher further extend this portfolio to include new 3D City GIS capabilities.
Commenting on Bentley's new software, Richard Zambuni, Bentley global marketing director, said, "All around the world, city governments are looking for ways to improve the sustainability of their intelligent city infrastructure to deliver a better quality of life to their citizens. Bentley's newly released 3D City GIS products enable them to adopt information modeling best practices that enhance their ability to perform urban planning, noise simulation, shadow analysis, natural disaster mitigation, public relationship management, and 3D analysis and design.
