VIDEO: Hudson Valley Community College dedicates new study space to veterans
TROY — Derek Farley never had the chance to go to college since he was killed while serving his country in Afghanistan, but now his name will forever be associated with college studying since Hudson Valley Community College on Thursday dedicated its Armed Forces Study Room to the Nassau native.
"My son did not like school whatsoever but, if he had the chance to go to college, he would have needed the camaraderie and to be with his brethren," said Carrie Farley, the 24-year-old's mother. She is an employee at HVCC and attended the dedication along with area veteran officials and some of the 300 veterans that attend the school.
The college focused on honoring the military and veterans with a flag ceremony that morning followed by the study room dedication on the second floor of the Marvin Library Learning Commons.
"This is a place where veterans can come together, share camaraderie and remind other veterans that they are not alone. This will leave a legacy behind for the veterans that come after us," said Amir Lewis, president of the college's Armed Forces Club. A member of the Army Reserves and veteran who was deployed to Iraq from 2006 to 2007 and from 2009 to 2010, he is working on his associate in applied science degree and plans to transfer to Siena College to earn a bachelor's in sociology.
The idea of the study space came about during the four-month library renovation after talking with multiple college and community organizations, said HVCC President Drew Matonak.
"The room is very important for the veterans," Farley said. "It's about welcoming them home, thanking them for their service, and enabling them to be together in this space."
Those organizations which donated funding for the space include the New York State Industries for the Disabled, The Altamont Program, and the Rensselaer County Veterans Organization.
"Disabled veterans face barriers when finding jobs," said Ron Romano, president of the NYS Industries for the Disabled. "A resource like this study room will not only strengthen the veteran community but the community as a whole as well."
Michael Fitzpatrick, a 2012 alum of HVCC and a veterans employment specialist, said he remembered Carrie Farley as always meeting him with a smile but also a kick in the butt if it was needed.
Farley's son died in 2010 while disposing of a bomb as part of his job. Continued...
In an email to his mother before being deployed to Afghanistan, Farley said: "I know I never said it when I was home but I love what I am doing in life and my job is my life. If something were to happen to me just remember I do the most dangerous job because it has the most rewarding payoff. My life is EOD and if I get hit then I do it as an EOD tech. There would be no greater honor if it comes to it, but I keep fighting because there are thousand of mothers out there just like you who want to see their sons and daughters again."
The college is also hosting its second annual "Pride of Our Nation, Pride of our College" exhibit with photos and stories of soldiers like Farley at the library through Dec. 7.

Update From the Medical Journals: June 2010 June 30, 2010 By Mary Pickett, M.D. What's the latest news in the medical journals this month? Find out what your doctor is reading.
Diabetes Increases Risk for Some Common Cancers Diabetes appears to be linked with a higher risk for certain cancers. Researchers have been concerned about this fact for some time. Experts from the American Diabetes Association and the American Cancer Society have summarized the evidence so far about this connection. It was published online on June 16 in the journal CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians. The increased cancer risk applies mostly to people who have type 2 diabetes, not type 1. People who have type 2 diabetes have roughly double the risk for liver, pancreas and uterine cancers. Their risk for colon, rectal, breast and bladder cancers is 1.2 to 1.5 times the normal risk. The reason for the connection is still unknown. One theory is that insulin might trigger or encourage cancer growth. People with type 2 diabetes are exposed to more insulin than normal. They may take insulin medicine or their bodies make more insulin naturally. Another theory is that high blood sugar might impair the body's normal immune response. This could permit a cancer to grow. Finally, risk factors for diabetes, such as obesity, may explain part of the increased risk. Some research suggests that insulin treatment raises cancer risk. More research is needed in this area. But these experts agree that the medicine metformin (Glucophage) seems to reduce some of the excess cancer risk. (Metformin lowers insulin resistance and helps to control blood sugar.) People with diabetes should have cancer screening tests at the usual recommended ages, including colon cancer screening and mammograms after age 50. NSAID Pain Relievers May Raise Heart Attack and Stroke Risk The drug rofecoxib (Vioxx) was taken off the market in the United States in 2004. It seemed to cause heart attacks and strokes. Since then, medical experts have wondered whether other pain medicines might also cause these harms. Now, one large study provides some answers. It suggests that some non-steroidal anti-inflammatory pain relievers (NSAIDs) are indeed linked to a small increase in strokes or death from heart disease. The study was published June 8 in the journal Circulation: Cardiovascular Quality and Outcomes. Why would NSAIDS increase heart and stroke risk in people who use them? In the case of Vioxx, the drug made the blood more likely to clot. Other NSAIDs seem to raise blood pressure slightly, which is a fairly common side effect of these drugs. The people in the study were age 39 on average, so overall the number of strokes, heart events and deaths was small. For example, about 1 in 1,000 people taking diclofenac died of heart or blood vessel disease. The study was not a randomized trial and does not prove that the medications caused the increase in heart and stroke events. It is possible that the people who took the drugs were less healthy to begin with compared with people who did not take them. Nevertheless, the study findings should lead to further safety research. Updated Guideline for Diabetes Says Only High Risk Adults Should Take Aspirin Heart and artery disease risk is two to four times higher in people with diabetes. In fact, 68% of deaths in people with diabetes after age 65 are from heart attacks; 16% are from strokes. The American Diabetes Association (ADA), the American Heart Association (AHA) and the American College of Cardiology Foundation (ACCF) released new recommendations for aspirin use among adults with diabetes. The new guidelines were published online by three journals on May 27: The Journal of the American College of Cardiology, Diabetes Care and Circulation: Journal of the American Heart Association. People who have the highest risk for heart attack or stroke are people who have already had one attack. Aspirin can reduce risk for a second heart attack or stroke. This is called "secondary prevention." When we use aspirin to prevent a first heart attack or stroke, it is called "primary prevention." Using aspirin for secondary prevention has clear benefits. But the benefits for primary prevention have been less certain. That's because the risk of bleeding complications from aspirin has the potential to outweigh aspirin's benefits. The main concern is bleeding from the intestine or hemorrhage after head injury. Several recent randomized studies, however, have provided new information about the benefits and risks of aspirin for people who have never had a first heart event or stroke. These led to the new recommendations from the ADA, AHA and ACCF, which now restrict aspirin for primary prevention to adults who are older and have an increased risk for cardiovascular disease. Adults who have diabetes but no history of prior vascular disease qualify for aspirin therapy only if they are at particularly high risk for a cardiovascular event in the next ten years. This means that most men older than 50 and most women older than 60 are considered high risk only if they also have one or more of these major risk factors: smoking, hypertension, bad cholesterol, a family history of heart disease at an early age or protein in the urine from diabetic kidney disease. The guidelines recommend choosing a low dose of aspirin (75 to 162 milligrams per day). Doctors do not recommend aspirin for primary prevention to these higher risk individuals if they have a peptic ulcer history or a risk of bleeding from regular use of NSAID drugs like ibuprofen).

Do not display (not visible) mini map.
Like (0)
Guys help me, I play in normal mode, not hardcore, and I do not show the mini map. Moreover, even the lobby is still created does not display. Help please. Here's a picture. http://imghost.in/di-J6K7.jpg
I've NEVER seen that ever. You might be in a hacked lobby. Not sure.
hello i have the same problem for 1 day now any body a solution ?????????
there is no way that hacking is not the culprit. you have been infected. reset your game/console to fix it. if you notice any suspicious activity in a match, leave immediately.
thanks but how must i reset my game/console ?
For a start, this topic has been answered many times in this section of the forums, you didnt search well. open steam, go to library, right click on MW3 multiplayer, click properties, verify intergrity of game cache. this will check you local files and download fresh ones if it realises something is different from what it should be. if this hasnt worked for you, you will then need to navigate into you steam folder, usually C:/prgram Files/steam/ steam apps/ user data (or players, cant remember exaclty) and manually delete them. then when you verify, fresh clean files will be downloaded. i believe its a config. file you will need to delete.
Hi Unrivaled,
Thanks, I'll try your solution to this problem.
hai i try that it no work for me i unstalled the whole game and installed it again and the problem was fixed.and nothing was gone i have the minimap back have a nice day my friends regards frank
I had the same problem with the mini map as stated above i believe i had gone into a hacked server it changed my screen resolution and everything.
Theres a simple solution to the problem go computer then into c:drive then into programme x64 then into steam apps file then into common file then into players 2 folder then go into config_mp file and delete your config_mp file then restart steam it will reset a new config file the problem seems to sit in the config file thats what i had to do to remove this problem.
Hope this helps
Yo guys, I know how to solve this problem you guys are all having, I had exactly the same thing, Watch this video that I made and all your troubles will dissapear!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__3GGORKKYI Watch this to see your troubles dissapear.
All you need to do is delete your mp_cnfg.cfg:(you'll find it in X:/program file/steam/steamaps/common/MW3/player2)
the game will rebiuld a fresh one the next tyime you start the game; then just reset all your options. Hope this helps

The 6-ton class loaders are an important market segment. These machines are sold in the construction industry in large numbers. And their importance is growing in agriculture, as more and more farmers replace the front loader tractor by these agile and efficient machines. Total 6 wheel loader manufacturers faced the well-known opinion of the magazine "top agrar" (issued October 2010).
Schäffer sent the 9300 Z to compete against following other machines:
Cat 907 H
JCB 409 Agri
Liebherr 509 Stereo
Terex TL 100
Weidemann 4070 CX
The Schäffer 9300 Z scored: "With more than 3,80 m lifting height, the loader got the highest value in test. With a tipping load of 3,8 tons in 90 cm height and fully articulated he stays also ahead ". The 9300 Z raised 740 kg more than the second best machine in this category lifted the load 58 cm higher. The measured tipping loads were very different: The loader with the lowest tipping load was 1360 kg or 36% less than Schaeffer.
Even with the pushing power the 9300 Z earned much praise: "The Schaeffer scored 5.8 tons daN in the measurements and was far ahead. Here too, the distance to the second best machine was huge with exactly 1.0 ton daN.
With 80 kW the 9300 Z was far better motorized than the other machines. However, if you would expect higher diesel consumption you would have been wrong. The 9300 Z loaded 115 tons of gravel and consumed 10.3 litres of diesel, earning the position of the loader with "the lowest diesel consumption." The savings potential is very high in comparison: All the other machines burned an average of 13.0 l, the worst single figure was 15.0 litres of diesel.
The height over cab of the Schäffer 9300 Z was 2.50 m only. The testers rated the manoeuvrability as follows: "With 7.6 m turning circle, the machine is very agile despite its size. Since the loader can swing in the middle the rear axle is designed as an oscillating axle.
Overall, the 9300 Z has hit well in this test. It stands for the strategy Schaeffer, to build outstanding compact loader with as much force as possible. Here again in the summary:
Schäffer 9300 Z offers:
- The best pushing power (26% better than average)
- The highest lifting height
- The highest dumping height
- The largest tipping load (24% better than average)
- The most powerful diesel engine
- The least diesel consumption (20% less than average)
- The second-best turning circle (and agility)
- The lowest height over cab

Study helps to identify at-risk children
Category: Health Written by Courier Newsroom
Some children seem to be born with a happy personality. Other children seem to feel more negative emotions. These "irritable" children are generally in a bad mood and have many tantrums and outbursts. As these children get older, they are at risk for school failure, problems with friends and family and mental illness. These problems also can get worse because of things like poverty, violence in the home or exposure to drugs and alcohol.

The First Powder Test
"I'M DOCTOR PROCTOR," the professor said at last. His accent was guttural, making his voice sound like a badly oiled lawnmower. "I'm a crazy professor. Well, almost, anyway." He laughed a hearty, snorting sort of laugh and started watering his unmowed lawn with a green watering can.
Nilly, who was never one to say no to an interesting conversation, set down his trumpet, ran down his front steps and over to the fence, and asked, "And just what makes you so sure that you're almost crazy, Mr. Proctor?"

Very convenient and close to the park. Having a reserved parking spot takes a lot of worry out of parking availability.
Jerry was great and helpful, will use the space again. Easy access off Belmont and a short walk to the park.
Jerry is a great guy made it all easy
We had great service from Jerry. He was so helpful.
WOW! That was easy! Just pull into the alley about half way down, you'll see 3232, call the phone # and a friendly man meets you and guides you into your own VIP parking spot. The big plus is longer parking time 9:30 til FOUR hrs after the game, so it's nice if you're a baseball autograph hound or like the post game bar scene.
My wife was driving to the parking location and called for directions and the gentleman stayed on the phone with my wife and was greeted her as she arrived. He even asked if she would like to use the restroom before she went to concert. I was very pleased to hear that he even asked her if she had someone to walk her back to her car after show due to it ending late. She said she had never had an experience like that at any other parking venue before. She received great parking and it really made our experience one of a kind. I would recommend this location to everyone looking for the best parking around. Thank you Gym1park

VIDEO: Veterans receive medical care, benefit information at Stand-Down
LATHAM — Both homeless and at-risk veterans filled the Colonie Elks Lodge 2192 Saturday for the Homeless Veterans Stand-Down. The event, sponsored by the Eastern New York Homeless Veterans Coalition, provided veterans with a one-day, one-stop shop of sorts, where they could receive medical care and obtain information about housing and other services they either didn't know about or have gone without.
Coalition Chairman Doug Williams said it is an event that makes veterans feel welcome, even if they have been previously discouraged by either the government or the general public when seeking needed services. The Stand-Down can also help prevent other veterans from becoming homeless.
"A large percentage of the people here are Vietnam veterans," Williams said. "A lot of them either don't like the government or don't trust it. They want someone at the door asking them how they are doing and getting friendly care."
The event started bright and early at 7 a.m. with coffee and breakfast. Following the meal, each veteran received a card to verify his participation in the event before he moved on to a station to receive medical care. Representatives from the Albany Stratton VA Hospital along with second and third year students from Albany Medical College provided the veterans with a variety of services, including mental health and infectious disease screenings, routine eye exams and flu shots, which the veterans could check-off on their cards. Alternative medicine options and massages were also available. Upon completion of the medical screenings, the veterans could present their cards to volunteers at the Elks' outdoor pavilion, where they could receive free clothing.
Representatives from the New York State Department of Labor and the Albany Housing Authority were also on hand to offer assistance in their areas of expertise.
"Sometimes people don't seek assistance because they might not know how or they might be afraid to," explained Kristen Danforth, who manages Stratton VA Hospital's Healthcare for Homeless Veterans program. She added that the event also provides a comfortable setting for veterans. "Veterans like to be with other vets. It's attractive to a lot of folks so they come in."
Danforth said around 250 to 300 veterans are served during the Homeless Veterans Stand-Down each year thanks to the nearly 250 volunteers who come to help.
Chuck Wallard, former Vice President of the New York State Elks Club, admitted that was he hesitant to hold the Stand-Down at the Colonie Elks Lodge when Williams first approached him about hosting the event there. The events of Sept. 11, 2001 forced Williams to find a new location for the event.
"This costs time and money to do things like this," Wallard said. "This was just one more thing. But Doug convinced me at the time and that was the start of it." Continued...
It's an event that picks from several areas of the community to show veterans that their service for the country is valued, Danforth said, and it's one veterans appreciate.
"It's really great," Danforth said. "The event pulls together lots of people in the community that want to thank them for their service."

Signature bond likely for drunk, lying killer:
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A witness told police that a Lutheran bishop accused of driving drunk when he struck and killed a runner in Sun Prairie on Sunday never braked after the crash and appeared to be trying to flee the scene, according to a criminal complaint filed Wednesday….
According to the complaint, Burnside had a preliminary breath test reading of 0.128 percent blood-alcohol content, the Wisconsin State Journal reported. Wisconsin's legal limit for driving is 0.08 percent.
After allegedly hitting Mengelt, Burnside drove to a nearby convenience store, where police had first contact with him in his vehicle. Burnside initially denied to police he'd been drinking, the complaint said. He told the first officer on the scene he was running late for a church ceremony.
"I was looking at my radio and adjusting," Burnside told police. "I just want to know if the woman is OK."
….A witness told police Burnside's sport utility vehicle jumped a median and hit a lamp post before striking Mengelt. Burnside's SUV had "heavy front-end damage," its back window was smashed and its roof was partially collapsed, the complaint said.
Half-gone now.
Andrew Nehmer, killed in 1986.

We are currently planning the route in Eastern Europe, starting from Berlin (12th July) , and ending in Serbia / Croatia / Romania. See our route page for more up to date info. En route we will visit and connect with projects, action camps and campaigns dealing with the long-standing Biketour themes of D.I.Y; De-growth; sustainability; along with campaigns more connected to this year's focus of 'Beyond Borders'.
Pedaling to a new route and different theme each year we carry everything on bikes and trailers. By practising consensus we create an evolving intentional community for over two months on the open road. The Biketour is the exact opposite of an all inclusive flight to the beach! -we are all about D.I.Y and Doing it Ourselves! Here are a few ideas of how you can get involved!
See the archive from last years ride 'Towards Degrowth' here.

R otary Foundation Global Grants support large international activities with sustainable high-impact outcomes in one or more of the six areas of focus and have a long-term impact. Clubs and districts can either create their own activities or sponsor packaged global grants that are developed by The Rotary Foundation in cooperation with its strategic partners.
Not in the pilot? Interested in applying for 2013-14 grants? See the new Foundation grants pages .
Clubs and districts can use District Designated Fund (DDF) or cash contributions to fund global grant activities and get matching funds from the Foundation. When developing activities, clubs and districts should consider the following:
The minimum award amount from the World Fund for a global grant, regardless of activity type, is US$15,000, which results in a minimum total financing of $30,000. The World Fund award is based on a 100 percent match of DDF ($1.00:$1.00) or a 50 percent match of cash contributions ($0.50:$1.00).
All Rotary Foundation Global Grant applications will be accepted on a rolling basis throughout the year. A two-step online application process is accessible via Member Access . Additional documentation for scholarships and vocational training teams must be completed by non-Rotarian participants; the grant sponsors will upload these items electronically to the application.
Proposal For club- and district-developed global grants, Rotarians will submit a brief online proposal before submitting a formal application. The proposal should provide an overview of the grant activity's objectives and demonstrate how the activities fit within an area of focus. This process is designed to increase the acceptance rate of grant applications.
Application Once a proposal has been accepted, Rotarians will submit an online application that provides the Foundation with more detailed grant activity and budget information. (Depending on the award amount or complexity of the project, the Foundation may request additional details.) Applications requesting a World Fund award (match) of more than US$100,000 will be reviewed by the Trustees quarterly. The following dates will be used to determine at which Trustee meeting applications will be reviewed:
Complete applications received by
Payment Once an application has been approved by the Foundation, both sponsors have authorized the agreement, and all associated cash contributions have been received, the Foundation will issue a payment.
Reporting Reports showing measurable success of the grant activity will be due to the Foundation every 12 months from the first issued payment. A final report is due when the grant funds have been completely spent and the objectives of the activity have been met.
Global grants support a variety of activities based on the needs of the benefiting communities or participants. All grant-funded activity must follow the eligibility requirements in the Terms and Conditions for Rotary Foundation District Grants and Global Grants (pilot version) . The grant structure is designed to allow clubs and districts more flexibility in creating grants that will further the mission of The Rotary Foundation within the areas of focus.
Humanitarian projects: Global grants may be used to fund humanitarian projects, provided that they
Scholarships: Global grants may be used to provide funding for academic studies provided that they
Vocational training opportunities: Global grants also may support vocational training teams, which are groups of professionals traveling abroad to either learn more about their profession or teach local professionals about a particular field. They

There are too many different sub-platters out there. Michael also makes one. If you look at the GT offerings the difference of the Reference and Deluxe models are the Delrin tabs. The Deluxe model has about 1/16 tabs machined in to raise the platter. Is this hub a bit thicker to keep the original VTA height for the platter? I didn't check it when I had one here but more than likely it is or higher on the spindle to adjust. SO I would say on all the Sub-platters there could be at least 3/32" adjustment necessary on that Pulley. That is about the total I took mine down.
After adjusting mine shorter and reinstalling I noticed a tick noise from the motor. The Pulley was too low on the motor shaft. I took it up a bit and it is perfectly silent now.
Also, the left motor attaching screw is slotted for belt adjustment I presume. The belts are adjusted to just kiss that sub-platter and not stretch at all. If you see a stretch on the belts when installing the Pulley they may be too tight and the motor should be pushed in a little. This adjustment was this way before I took the motor all apart. Also don't tighten too much either of the screws. Just enough to lock the motor in place. It does sound better.
Some posters here have ordered Michael's motor Isolation piece. I'm interested in how it looks in set up and how it sounds.
Sorry for being long winded, but if your doing this pulley set up on a P5 especially, you should know what you're up against.
But, it sounds damn good!!!!
When you buy a upgrade like this, it should be plug in play. Period. If you email the guy and he says, Yeah it works with your Turntable but than it doesn't, than what? What if you are not handy with tools? Its the little things and attention to details that makes all the difference. Does your allen bolt stick out and is not flush with the pulley? Look at it when it spins and tell me its not annoying. I'm thinking about shaving that allen key bolt down also. I wish groovetracer can put out this product. Frank you listening?
and The sound? Oh yeah!! its worth it.

Have a lighter outlook on life or a particulary situation. When we see feathers in our midst it is considered a message that we need to lighten up, not take things too seriously, and try to find the joy in our situation.

Fun-to-drive cars under $25,000 and over 30 mpg
Back in the late 70's, when the first major fuel crisis hit the United States, cars like the 1971 Dodge Charger – with its 440 cubic-inch 4-barrel V8 – were being traded in droves for more fuel-efficient vehicles like the Volkswagen Rabbit. Manufacturers raced to replace the gas-guzzling, high-horsepower engines in existing cars with smaller, more fuel-efficient motors, resulting in emasculated Corvettes, Trans-Ams, and Z28s. Heavy car + small engine = no fun!Today, fuel prices are again high. But thanks to technology advancements such as lightweight alloys, fuel injection and computerized engine management systems, plenty of 2005 model-year vehicles are capable of providing plenty of bang for the buck. In compiling this list, we made "fun-to-drive" the top priority. Next, the entrants had to get reasonable fuel economy, so we set the bar at an EPA rating of 30 mpg or better on the highway. Each selection also needed to have a base price under $25,000, including delivery. Once we had our list of possibilities whittled down, our editors selected the 10 vehicles they would park in their own driveways, ranked in order from one to ten.

Tell us a little about yourself. Im a father, husband, storyteller, adventurer and lover of stories with a twist at the end.
What was your motivation behind this project? I was considering the question of what makes humans different from animals. At first I thought the answer would be, Well, humans have souls, but then I came across Ecclesiastes 3:21 that says, Who knows if the spirit of man rises upward and if the spirit of the animal goes down into the earth? Id never heard in church that animals had spirits just as humans do, so this verse really got me to thinking. The storyline for The Bishop grew out of my journey deeper into this question.
What do you hope folks will gain from this project? A greater sense of the dignity and worth of human life.
How were you personally impacted by working on this project? This book required more research on philosophy, science and human nature than any of my previous novels. I learned a lot about the point of view of those who believe in evolution and about the impact that has on their view of humans, and of the point of view of those who believe in creation, and the impact that has on how they view human life. It was eye-opening. Its frightening where reasoning from a worldview that does not include God will lead you in the realms of justifying evil and immorality.
Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists? While researching this book, I dove into apologetics and found that Peter Kreeft is probably my favorite author in that field.
Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know: This is my deepest, most philosophical novel to date. It was also the one with the most intense climax. If you like thought-provoking, intense thrillers, then youll love The Bishop.
