Right-Wing Media Outraged That Obama Hugged Leader Of NATO Ally
Right-wing media have expressed outrage over President Obama hugging Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan at the G-20 summit, claiming that Obama is "hugging enemies [and] abandoning allies." In fact, Turkey is an ally of the United States via its membership in NATO; moreover, this is just the latest example of the right-wing media's obsession with how Obama greets leaders.
Right-Wing Media Claim Obama Is "Hugging Enemies, Abandoning Allies"
Weekly Standard: "The Europeans Get A Handshake And The Islamist Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan Gets A Hug." In a November 3 post on The Weekly Standard's website, Daniel Halper analyzed Obama's hugging of Erdogan and claimed: "The Europeans get a handshake and the Islamist Turkish prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan gets a hug. And all the president seems to have in mind is campaign politics and his reelection effort." [The Weekly Standard, 11/3/11 [1]]
Geller: Obama "Is In Europe Insulting Allies And Hugging Islamic Imperialists." In a November 3 post on Atlas Shrugs titled, "Love Among The Ruins: Obama Hugs Islamic Supremacist PM Erdogan," Pam Geller claimed that Obama "is in Europe insulting allies and hugging Islamic Imperialists." [Atlas Shrugs, 11/3/11 [2]]
Big Peace: "Obama (Literally) Embraces Anti-Israel, Pro-Iran Islamist On The World Stage." In a November 3 post on Andrew Breitbart's Big Peace, titled "Obama (Literally) Embraces Anti-Israel, Pro-Iran Islamist on the World Stage," Joel Pollak wrote: "Our European allies, by contrast, received simple handshakes. Never mind the apparent breach of protocol-what does this demonstrate about Barack Obama's worldview?" [Big Peace, 11/3/11 [3]]
Goldfarb: Obama "Hugging Enemies, Abandoning Allies." In a November 3 tweet, former Weekly Standard writer Michael Goldfarb wrote:
[Twitter, 11/3/11 [4]]
In Fact, Turkey Is A NATO Ally Of The United States
U.S. State Department: Turkey Supports Operations Iraqi Freedom And Operation Enduring Freedom. The United States Department of State's website on Turkey provides a history of U.S.-Turkey relations. According to the State Department website, "Turkey allows the use of Incirlik Air Base for the transport of non-lethal cargo in support of Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom." [U.S. State Department, accessed 11/4/11 [5]]
NATO: Turkey's Current Troop Contribution In Afghanistan Is 1,840. According to the Afghanistan International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) website, Turkey currently has 1,840 troops active in the NATO effort in Afghanistan. [ISAF, accessed 11/4/11 [6]]
NY Times: "U.S. Hails Deal With Turkey On Missile Shield." The New York Times reported on September 15 that the U.S. and Turkey had reached an agreement that allows for the U.S. to install a "sophisticated American radar system" in Turkey as part of the NATO missile defense shield designed to protect "Europe against a potential Iranian missile attack." The Times quoted a senior White House official who said, "This is probably the biggest strategic decision between the United States and Turkey in the past 15 or 20 years." [The New York Times, 9/15/11 [7]]
Right-Wing Media Have Previously Attacked Obama's Greetings Of Leaders
Right-Wing Media Have Previously Obsessed Over Obama's Greeting Of Leaders. Right-wing media have previously obsessed over Obama's greeting of domestic leaders and heads of state, attacking Obama for his greetings of Chinese President Hu Jintao, Tampa Mayor Pam Iorio, Saudi King Abdullah, and Japanese Emperor Akihito.

Casinos just like any other business entity are opened with the sole purpose of making money. People gamble for various causes, and the easiest to comprehend is their hope of winning. It is definitely an activity that is participated voluntarily, or effectually sanctioned by an extensive number of individuals. Gambling, in its different forms, is allowed in many countries; it is increasingly considered as a legal means of fund raising in America and Canada.

Margaret Cho returns to Drop Dead Diva for the 6th and final season on March 23rd at 9pm on Lifetime!
From Lifetime.com:
It's time for "Drop Dead Diva" to take a final bow. The sixth and final season premieres on March 23 at 9.8c with a two-hour event.
So, where did we leave off? Here's a refresher course: at the close of last season, Jane thought she would finally have her happy ending with Grayson, until Brittany (Old Jane) revealed to Grayson that Jane isn't who he thinks she is.
In the season six premiere, Jane is forced to finally tell the truth to Grayson, but his reaction leaves her more lost than ever. Meanwhile Owen gets a visit from his estranged brother, Charlie (Colin Egglesfied, "The Client List"), that puts his personal life and the firm at risk. As Jane buries herself in work once again to hide from the problems in her life, she discovers her new pro bono case has high stakes with the U.S. government. With Kim on maternity leave, a new lawyer, Belinda (Virginia Williams, "How I Met Your Mother") joins the firm and gives Jane a run for her money.
On top of Egglesfield and Williams, "High School Musical" star Corbin Bleu, Rick Springfield, Rascal Flatt's Jay DeMarcus will guest star on this season. S. Epatha Merkerson and John Ratzenberger will also reprise their roles as Judge Hiller and Kim's father, Larry.

In his two volume, fifty-two chapter history of the life of Christ and the first thirty years of the church, containing more words than all of Paul's epistles, the physician Luke said in his prologue to both those books (Luke 1:4) that his purpose was certainty:
That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed.Notice that Luke didn't say, "That thou mightest know the high probability of those things." He wanted the Roman government official, Theophilus, and therefore us, to be sure about Christianity. Luke used the word "certain" to describe his purpose in writing. Before he does so, he establishes the reliability of what he wrote. It could be corroborated by the best of sources, including many, various eyewitnesses and the apostles ("ministers of the word," Lk. 1:1, 2).
Wikipedia says about "certainty":
Certainty is the state of being without doubt. It is total security from error. Certainty is the continuity and validity of all foundational inquiry. Something is certain only if no skepticism can occur. Philosophy (at least historically) seeks this state. Epistemology is the study of knowledge, certainty, and truth. Contemporary views of knowledge, both in philosophy and in general, do not demand certainty. It is widely held that certainty is a failed historical enterprise. A common alternative is "justified true belief."According to modern philosophy, certainty has gone extinct. Now all we can expect, according to contemporary thinking, is a satisfactory level of probability. However, this is to say in my thinking that the Bible cannot be trusted.
Why is it that we cannot be certain any longer on matters of faith and practice, and, therefore, philosophy? Where is it that uncertainty comes from? The uncertainty and doubt all relates to the highest authority, God Himself, and His Word. To understand the answer to these questions, I believe we should recognize that there are essentially three general positions regarding the certainty of the Word of God. Only the first of these are Scriptural and historical. Going from most certain to least certain, they are:
1. Every Word of God Was Inspired and Has Been Preserved and Is Available
2. Every Word of God Was Inspired, but We're Not Sure that Every Word Has Been Preserved or Is Available
3. We Don't Have God's Word Today, and We May Never Have Had It
Views number 1 and 3 have been rampant for most of time. The second position became popular in the nineteenth century.
I'm a number one guy. Adherents of both one and two basically believe this: everyone will stand before God. For a moment, perhaps we can propel ourselves to that time right now by faith and consider ourselves as we face the Almighty. Do you believe that God will be angry with proponents of number one? How will He judge those holding to the second position? And then the third? Without faith it is impossible to please Him (Heb. 11:6). Three is faithless. What is two?
What does uncertainty look like? I know. It looks like weakness. It is weak. People who aren't fully sure about something can't approach obedience to God with the same kind of courage and passion as those who are certain. Uncertainty leads to capitulation. If we can't be sure, then why should we practice as strongly ourselves or why should we expect others to do the same?
Satan deals in doubt. He cultivates doubt by attacking the certainty of God's Word. "Hath God said?" he asks. Satan likes this answer from men: "He may have." Or, "I think so." God wants, "I know" or "I'm certain." Parts of professing Christianity that are hanging by a thread in the number two category don't believe that we can be certain about the interpretations of God's Word. If God couldn't preserve every Word for us to have and live by, how could we really know what He meant by what He said? But has God given enough evidence for us to be certain?
The second group above finds it too tough to be sure about the perfection of what we presently call "the Word of God." They don't think anyone could sufficiently prove a position that says that we know what all those Words are. They think we have all the doctrines, but we're just guessing in an educated way about what some of the Words are. The great barrier that they can't surmount is that God would consolidate all of the Words from various and differing hand made copies into one perfect, printed edition. That would take a miracle, one that is difficult to explain. All miracles are not easy to comprehend, but this one they find incomprehensible. It is hard to believe because God didn't announce which edition was the perfect one. He didn't put out His heavenly neon arrow pointing at the volume with all the right Words. And all of academia and scholarship says that there is no way that anything like that happened. If a miracle of preservation was going to happen, they think it is would just look different than what it all looks---cleaner and more obvious---maybe something angelic or astronomical.
But isn't inspiration itself is something highly disagreed upon. Was it dictation? Did men swoon and begin unconsciously penning like string puppets? Did they write some good stuff that God later approved? Did they take down eyewitness testimony and collate documents that they amalgamated into one book? Did they cobble together a decent account from multiple sources of oral communication? What settles inspiration for us is the explanation we get in Scripture. We weren't there when it happened. We didn't see it. We weren't the ones God used in inspiration. We go ahead and take what God said at face value. When we see apparent contradictions, we harmonize them out of respect for Divine authorship. We defend the faith.
I believe that a miracle of preservation, what we might also call providential preservation, occurred in the silent fashion that God so often works. That's also how He inspired. He used common men of little renown. He expects men to see His hand in history. God regularly calls on this kind of trust throughout Scripture. A lot of what He does is beyond some of our capacity to comprehend. It isn't something that is easy to explain, but God wants us to believe it anyway. He has given us enough evidence in His promises, in a tall stack of manuscripts, and in the validation of a remnant of believers that we should assume that we have the exact Words. This is a belief that men have had in the past, despite slips of the pen and scribal emendations.
The Greek word translated in the English as "certainty" is a compound word that essentially means, "not tripping." When God sent Abram to the Promised Land, Abram couldn't see it, but he went. Romans 4 says that he staggered not in unbelief. Abram wasn't tripped up by things he couldn't see.
God wants us to continue to take steady steps of faith in His promises of preservation and to speak with certainty about His one Bible, His perfect Book. We dishonor God when we don't. We don't please Him. And in so doing, we encourage and then tolerate various levels of disobedience to God. We're tripped up, but we also become a block that causes others to stumble.
This is the first in a series.

Attendees of this year's Holiday House Tour saw some unique ways to transform their own home while getting a sneak peak inside some of Chestnut Hill's architectural gems.
This year's tour featured five houses. Two of the houses on the tour were a charming Cotswold-style design by architects Gilchrist, McGoodwin and Duhring. The third home was a dramatic Queen Anne by G.W. and W.D. Hewitt, primary architects for Henry Houston and George Woodward. The fourth home on the tour was a handsome Colonial Revival home built in 1906. This year's tour also featured a beautifully designed modern home.
Shirley Hanson, a member of the Chestnut Hill Historical Society, described the first house on the tour as the perfect example of the Wissahickon style."
"It's magnificent,said Hanson. It brings the Wissahickon setting into the community by using native plants and, through the integration of the inside with the outside ,one flows into one another."
For some visitors the Holiday House Tour has become a holiday tradition.
"It's a great way to start the holiday season,said Wayne resident Nancy DePaul, who is participating in the tour for the fifth year in a row. µÄ am greatly intrigued by the architecture and design of the houses. As a therapist, I enjoy seeing the different ways people celebrate the holidays."
She added that thanks to the generosity of the homeowners visitors have a chance to see holiday decorations that compliment the unique style and architecture of each house.
Julie Scheier, of North Whales, who was on the tour with 12 friends, said, it was a great way to spend some time with friends.
"It's just so great that these people are allowing us to come into their homes and see behind the walls, said Betsy Cornish, of Lower Gwyneth.
Bruce Levin, who helped organize the event, said turnout this year was exceptional.
"We have not had a lull all day,said Levin, who owns The Perfect Stitch Upholstery, 8012 Germantown Ave.
Levin said one of the challenges of organizing the Holiday House Tour was getting homes because the home owners are basically giving up their home for five days.
"Designers need two days to set up and break down the decorations," he said.
He added that every year the organizers try to get new designers. Levin said all the designers did a wonderful job decking the halls.

Road to Perfect Health with Brenda Watson
Road to Perfect Health with Brenda Watson Previous Broadcasts
KQED Plus: Sat, Mar 1, 2014 -- 8:00 AM
We all know the saying, "All roads lead to Rome." Well, according to digestive care expert, Brenda Watson, they all lead to the digestive system - at least where our health is concerned. In this program, Brenda shows us how all health ailments can be linked to an imbalance in the digestive system.
With over 20 years experience helping people overcome health challenges, Ms. Watson has been able to help people return to health - whether they suffer from typical digestive problems or chronic fatigue - by balancing the good and bad bacteria in their gut. Brenda shows us that a well-balanced intestinal tract makes up a large part of our immune system, or our body's "Gut Protection System" (GPS).
Unfortunately our GPS sometimes malfunctions and becomes out of balance, leading our health in the wrong direction. When this happens it leads to sickness and health problems. Ms. Watson shows us that no matter what our sickness or condition, putting our GPS in balance will put us back on the road to better health. Even if you don't have a heath problem, you need to keep your GPS in balance. How do you do this? Brenda gives a clear and concise plan to maintain a healthy, well-balanced GPS.

You Can Prevent CMV
June 21, 2007
A note from TheBody.com: The field of medicine is constantly evolving. As a result, parts of this article may be outdated. Please keep this in mind, and be sure to visit other parts of our site for more recent information!
What is CMV?
CMV, or cytomegalovirus (si-to-MEG-a-lo-vi-rus), is a virus that is found in all parts of the world. For someone with HIV or AIDS, CMV can cause retinitis (blurred vision and blindness), painful swallowing, diarrhea, and pain, weakness, and numbness in the legs.
How is CMV spread?
CMV spreads from one person to another in saliva (spit), semen, vaginal secretions, blood, urine, and breast milk. You can get CMV when you touch these fluids with your hands, then touch your nose or mouth. People can also get CMV through sexual contact, breastfeeding, blood transfusions, and organ transplants.
How can I protect myself from CMV?
You may already have CMV. However, you can take steps to avoid CMV, such as:
If you work in a day care center, you should take these special precautions:
How do I know if I have CMV?
A blood test can tell you if you have CMV, but this test is not commonly performed. CMV doesn't always cause symptoms. Some people have fatigue, swollen glands, fever, and sore throat when they first get CMV. But these are also symptoms of other illnesses, so most people don't know it when they get CMV.
How is CMV different for someone with HIV?
Once CMV enters a person's body, it stays there. Most people with CMV never get CMV-related diseases. However, in people with HIV or AIDS, the virus can cause severe disease.
How can I prevent CMV disease?
The most important thing you can do is to get the best care you can for your HIV infection. Take your antiretroviral medicine just the way your doctor tells you to. If you get sick from your medicine, call your doctor for advice. CMV disease mostly affects HIV-infected people whose CD4 cell counts are below 100. Oral (taken by mouth) ganciclovir (gan-CY-clo- veer) may be used to prevent CMV disease, but it is expensive, has side effects, and may not work for all people. Normally, ganciclovir is not recommended, but you may want to talk with your doctor about it.

In the old times the people used to dance often and all night. Once there was a dance at the old town of Sakwiyi, on the head of Chattahoochee River, and after it was well started two young women with beautiful long hair came in, but no one knew who they were, or whence they had come.
They danced with one partner and another, and in the morning slipped away before anyone knew that they were gone; but a young warrior had fallen in love with one of the sisters on account of her beautiful hair, and after the manner of the Cherokee had already asked her through an old man if she would marry him and let him live with her.
To this the young woman had replied that her brother at home must first be consulted, and they promised to return for the next dance seven days later with an answer, but in the meantime if the young man really loved her he must prove his constancy by a rigid fast until then. The eager lover readily agreed and impatiently counted the days.
In seven nights there was another dance. The young warrior was on hand early, and later in the evening the two sisters appeared as suddenly as before. They told him their brother was willing, and after the dance they would conduct the young man to their home, but warned him that if he told anyone where he went or what he saw he would surely die.
He danced with them again and about daylight the three came away just before the dance closed, so as to avoid being followed, and started off together. The women led the way along a trail through the woods, which the young man had never noticed before, until they came to a small creek, where, without hesitating, they stepped into the water.
The young man paused in surprise on the bank and thought to himself, "They are walking in the water; I don't want to do that." The women knew his thoughts just as though he had spoken and turned and said to him, "This is not water; this is the road to our house." He still hesitated, but they urged him on until he stepped into the water and found it was only soft grass that made a fine level trail.
They went on until the trail came to a large stream which he knew for Tallulah river. The women plunged boldly in, but again the warrior hesitated on the bank, thinking to himself, "That water is very deep and will drown me; I can't go on." They knew his thoughts and turned and said, "This is no water, but the main trail that goes past our house, which is now close by." He stepped in, and instead of water there was tall waving grass that closed above his head as he followed them.
They went only a short distance and came to a rock cave close under Tallulah falls. The women. entered, while the warrior stopped at the mouth; but they said: "This is our house; come in and our brother will soon be home; he is coming now." They heard low thunder in the distance. He went inside and stood tip close to the entrance. Then the women took off their long hair and hung it up on a rock, and both their heads were as smooth as a pumpkin. The man thought, "It is not hair at all," and he was more frightened than ever.
The younger woman, the one he was about to marry, then sat down and told him to take a seat beside her. He looked, and it was a large turtle, which raised itself up and stretched out its claws as if angry at being disturbed. The young man said it was a turtle, and refused to sit down, but the woman insisted that it was a seat.
Then there was a louder roll of thunder and the woman said, "Now our brother is nearly home." While they urged and he still refused to come nearer or sit down, suddenly there was a great thunder clap just behind him, and turning quickly he saw a man standing in the doorway of the cave.
"This is my brother," said the woman, and he came in and sat down upon the turtle, which again rose up and stretched out its claws. The young warrior still refused to come in. The brother then said that he was just about to start to a council, and invited the young man to go with him. The hunter said he was willing to go if only he had a horse; so the young woman was told to bring one. She went out and soon came back leading a great uktena snake, that curled and twisted along the whole length of the cave.
Some people say this was a white uktena and that the brother himself rode a red one. The hunter was terribly frightened, and said "That is a snake; I can't ride that." The others insisted that it was no snake, but their riding horse. The brother grew impatient and said to the woman, "He may like it better if you bring him a saddle, and some bracelets for his wrists and arms."
So they went out again and brought in a saddle and some arm bands, and the saddle was another turtle, which they fastened on the uktena's back, and the bracelets were living slimy snakes, which they got ready to twist around the hunter's wrists.
He was almost dead with fear, and said, "What kind of horrible place is this? I can never stay here to live with snakes and creeping things." The brother got very angry and called him a coward, and then it was as if lightening flashed from his eyes and struck the young man, and a terrible crash of thunder stretched him senseless.
When at last he came to himself again he was standing with his feet in the water and both hands grasping a laurel bush that grew out from the bank, and there was no trace of the cave or the Thunder People, but he was alone in the forest. He made his way out and finally reached his own settlement, but found then that he had been gone so very long that all the people had thought him dead, although to him it seemed only the day after the dance.
His friends questioned him closely, and, forgetting the warning, he told the story. In seven days he died, for no one can come back from the underworld and tell about it and live.

The film functions as a high-wire act that can leave you giddy with laughter.
A refreshingly entertaining character study that refuses to dumb down its youthful cast or bury their concerns in service of a catchy soundtrack.
I would classify Charlie Bartlett as a smart teen film. It's more ambitious and overall more successful than its '80s forebears even though the resemblance is unmistakable.

Edgy high school comedy better for mature viewers.
What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that this mature comedy about high school students is full of images of and references to pills, other drugs, beer, and liquor (all of which are used by the students, who also smoke). Characters discuss suicide, depression, and troubled parent-child relationships. There are images of brutal "fight videos" made by the students, a gun wielded by a potential suicide, and a raucous student demonstration. The hero loses his virginity (off screen, after some kissing scenes), and there's some strong language, including "f--k."
Messages: High school students suffer from depression, egotism, and fear; adults are less than helpful.
Violence: Bully menaces Charlie repeatedly. Kids make fight DVDs that show a bully beating Charlie and other students; includes images of bloody faces, kicks, and hits. A girl describes her father's threat to kill himself with a .38. Students' demonstration against surveillance cameras on campus leads to punching and scuffling. Principal holds a gun; Charlie assaults him to stop a seeming suicide, then they talk.
Sex: Kisses between the primary couple, some in close-up, lead to Charlie's "first time" (the movie cuts from kissing to a post-sex shot showing his naked chest; he announces his loss of virginity at a party, and kids cheer). Mention of porn on the Internet. Some sexual language ("get your nana pierced," "p---y," "hooch," "vagina").
Language: Several uses of "f--k," as well as "s--t" (some with "bull"), "bitch," "hell," "goddamn," and "ass." Other colorful phrases include "this school blows," "total tool," "I will take a massive steaming dump on your life," "bite me," and "you're a dick."
Consumerism: The Clash poster in teenager's room.
Drinking, drugs and smoking: The movie has a thematic focus on drugs and alcohol: Mother drinks (wine) repeatedly and is sometimes visibly drunk. High school students smoke marijuana (and use slang like "roach"). Charlie is prescribed medication by his psychiatrist (Ritalin, Xanax, Zoloft, Prozac), then starts selling his pills to classmates. Reference to dropping acid; the principal drinks. News that a student overdosed on sedatives casts a pall on the school. Mother refers to college drug use; principal discusses his alcoholism. Frequent cigarette smoking by adults and high school students (Murphey in particular).

Elizabethtown Social Media Guide
The way we interact with one another is constantly changing—from the written letter to the telephone to the text message. Social media has dramatically changed the way we communicate—and has no doubt contributed to the 24/7 society in which we live.
This is the case at Elizabethtown College. The implementation of a more robust College website (launched in May 2011) with advanced content-sharing tools and improved navigation features allows information to be shared more easily among all audiences. By incorporating and participating in social media outlets, such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, foursquare, Pinterest and YouTube, we instill that same sharing culture offsite.
These social media outlets are personal, effective, targeted, two-way communication tools that reinforce our brand messaging. The result is a higher level of engagement with our broader community: Fostering relationships and bringing traffic to the College website are two positive outcomes.
Our Social Media Guide was established to help members of the Elizabethtown College community use social media effectively in both personal and professional use, and to promote College-related initiatives. In this online guide we'll discuss:
- Official College social media accounts
- Interacting with the official College social media accounts
- Creating and promoting campus-related social media accounts
- Best practices using Facebook
- Best practices using Twitter
- General guidelines and etiquette for personal and professional social media use
- Official College Facebook comment policy
There is so much to say or share about social media, and it changes every day. This serves as a basic guide to getting started. Please contact the Office of Marketing Communications if you have further questions not answered here.

HOLT | The Tuscaloosa County Board of Education voted 6-1 Monday to change its high schools' class schedules from a four-period block to an eight-period per day.
HOLT | The Tuscaloosa County Board of Education voted 6-1 Monday to change its high schools' class schedules from a four-period block to an eight-period per day.
A majority of teachers, principals and surveyed parents opposed the switch.
Interim Superintendent Dan Butler said he knew the class schedule change wouldn't satisfy everyone, but he said he recommended it because it's best for students.
Board member Bill Copeland, who promised in his re-election platform to try to move the system away from the four-period block schedule, said after six years of debate, he's glad it's finally over.
"It's been a long road, but the change will help the students greatly improve and it'll give the kids who were dropping out a better chance," Copeland said.
Starting next school year, high schools will go from having four 96-minute classes one semester and four different 96-minute classes in the next semester, to having the same eight classes for 45 to 48 minutes daily for the school year.
Teachers at the meeting said the eight-period day doesn't give them enough time to teach effectively. They said they were extremely upset with the board's decision to change class schedules and felt like their opinions were ignored.
"We did an online survey where the majority of teachers and principals voted against switching from a four-period block, but they still pushed this through," said Cay Strickland, a science teacher at Hillcrest High School. "I think they did it to flex their authoritative muscle and show that they didn't have to listen to their teachers and principals.
"The only reason they gave that they wanted to do this tonight was because students will get math all year long," she said.
Copeland said the board's decision wasn't about teachers. He said the board studied the class schedule long enough and it was time to move forward.
"We're not trying to do what's best for the teachers, we want to do what's best for the students," he said after the meeting. "We have good teachers, and I have no doubt they'll get used to it, especially as our math and reading scores go up.
"It's hard for students to focus for 90 minutes," he said. "The majority of (school) systems in this state who were on the four-period block have gone to the eight-period day. There's got to be a good reason for it."
Other board members said the change could help improve graduate rates, which they said are lower than those in other systems.
At least part of the reason the class schedule hadn't changed before Monday' was because former superintendent Frank Costanzo never recommended it.
Costanzo, who retired in March, told Copeland on Feb. 13 that the board can't vote to adopt a new class schedule unless the superintendent recommends it. At the time, Costanzo said he hadn't received any recommendation from the system's curriculum committee suggesting that he should make such a recommendation.
The board debated the issue with Costanzo and other system administrators for two hours at that meeting.
Amanda Cassity, director of secondary instruction, said in March that the board gave central office administrators a directive to move completely away from the four-period block schedule. To comply with the board directive, Cassity formed the Tuscaloosa County Schools High School Bell Schedule Committee, which researched a variety of class schedules used at schools across the U.S. and consulted with other school systems that had changed from the four-period block.
After studying the pros and cons of changing from a four-period block to an eight-period day, the committee came to a consensus and recommended an eight-period day to the superintendent.
In the committee's report, it states that the pros of switching to an eight-period day are:
- It provides time for job-embedded collaboration.
- It won't affect the number of high school credits required to graduate.
- It's recommended by the National Science and Math Foundation and Alabama Commission on Higher Learning.
The challenges and cons are:
- Teachers must have better time management and planning since they're switching to shorter periods.
- Training is needed to help students and teachers get used to the change.
- Students will no longer be able to graduate a semester early since they won't get their class credits until the end of the school year.
- More textbooks have to be purchased for classrooms since teachers won't be able to share textbooks by swapping classroom textbooks when the semester ends.
- Summer school needs to be added and funded.
- A credit advancement policy and program needs to be developed.
- More paper and copy machines are needed.
Cassity said the estimated cost of the transition will cost about $744,515. The expense will cover more personnel, facilities modifications, additional licenses for online programs, professional development, supplies and textbooks.
William Tunnel, the Tuscaloosa County director of the American Education Association, said the budget for next school year has already been approved. He said he doesn't see how the board's going to fund the class schedule changes.
He said that the community was left out of the decision. He said no one from outside the school system served on the committee that studies the issue.
Tunnel also said the board voted on the issue immediately after it was presented in a public meeting, giving no one from the community the opportunity to comment.
"This is the first time I've seen this presentation, and it's on the agenda for approval," Tunnel said. "I question the appropriateness of passing this without allowing the people to look it over and consider it.
"Another thing is I haven't heard anyone say they were for this tonight," he said. "All the challenges to doing this vote tonight from teachers and parents should be reason enough not to approve it tonight."
Mark Nelson, the only board member who voted against the schedule change, said he agreed with Tunnel.
He said the committee was given a directive by the board to move from the block schedule because they wanted a change.
The committee wasn't asked to research the best schedule for students, he said.
He said the Tuscaloosa City School System's switch to an eight-period day this school year should have no bearing on county school's decision. The city system has the money to fund the changes, while the county is struggling financially, he said.
"How are we going to milk this in without a way to fund it?" Nelson asked.
When asked after the meeting how the system would fund the schedule changes, Copeland said, "We got funds reserved that we'll be able to use to take care of these problems."

The report that Robin Williams had died on Aug. 11 of an apparent suicide by asphyxiation came like that dreaded phone call, the bad news regarding a friend or relative about whom you've long feared the worst.
>> Robin Williams' 10 Unforgettable Roles
If celebrities have become something of an extended family to us, Robin was the cousin we instinctively worried about. We knew of his cocaine addiction in the 1980s; about his hospitalization for alcoholism in 2006. And although we never heard much about him suffering from depression until after his death, we sensed that anyone capable of the manic highs he displayed as a performer must sometimes come down, and come down hard.
>> Photos: Famous People We've Lost in 2014
He first surfaced on TV as a supporting act on the short-lived Richard Pryor Show and 1977's Laugh-In revival. But most of us got to know Robin in 1978, when he burst into the sitcom stratosphere as the fast-talking space alien on Mork and Mindy (he'd played the part in an episode of Happy Days, and was so electrifying his own spinoff became inevitable).
He was funny, he was fast, and he was endlessly inventive in the same unpredictable manner as his hero, Jonathan Winters – another master of improvisational comedy who suffered from depression. Like Winters, Robin had a classic clown's face that seemed to grimace even when he was smiling. Also among his store of contradictions was a painful shyness; a reticence that caused him to avoid the talk show circuit for years. It wasn't until three seasons into Mork that he finally sat down with Johnny Carson in 1981, and his nervousness was palpable.
>> 7 Things You Should Know About Depression
Hilarious as he was, like a lot of funny people Robin desperately wanted to be taken seriously. He didn't even start out as a comic – he studied acting at Julliard, a classmate of Christopher Reeve, and his four Oscar nominations came for roles that depended heavily on his dramatic acting chops. He won as Matt Damon's shrink in Good Will Hunting; it's a little chilling to realize that in one of his nominated films, Dead Poets Society (1989), he plays the teacher of a boy who kills himself, and in another, The Fisher King (1991), he plays a homeless man who saves a suicidal radio DJ (Jeff Bridges). He put his legendary comic riffing skills to classic use in Good Morning Vietnam (1987), his first Oscar-nominated role, but for my money his most compelling screen performance was his most restrained, as a creepy photo processing technician in the 2002 thriller One Hour Photo.
Those of us who feel a personal loss today may also be sensing some pangs of guilt for having largely abandoned him. Robin's CBS sitcom, The Crazy Ones, never caught on and was canceled in May after a single season. Aside from some fun turns as Teddy Roosevelt in the Night at the Museum movies (his last one arrives this coming Christmas), Robin's films have lately foundered at the box office: The Big Wedding, The Face of Love, and Old Dogs were little-seen, and his most interesting recent movie, World's Greatest Dad (2009), found dark comedy in the death of his character's son by – in yet another vaguely sickening coincidence – accidental asphyxiation.

For movie stars with a body of work like Robin's, there is a wide choice of celluloid epitaphs to choose from. Some will invoke his inspiring line from Dead Poets Society: "Carpe diem. Seize the day, boys!" Or his largely ad-libbed speech in Aladdin: "To be my own master, such a thing would be greater than all the magic and all the treasure in the world!" Or his admonition to Matt Damon in Good Will Hunting: "You don't know about real loss because it only occurs when you've loved something more than you love yourself."
As for me, I'm happy to leave Robin in the final scenes of one of his less successful films, What Dreams May Come. Killed in a car crash, he ventures from heaven to hell to rescue his wife (Anabella Sciorra), who, in yet another haunting case of real-life foreshadowing, has committed suicide.

Reunited in paradise, he tells her the pains and sorrows of mortal life don't amount to much: "A whole human life is just a heartbeat here in heaven."
In his last movie released during his lifetime, The Angriest Man in Brooklyn – about a guy told he has 90 minutes to live – Robin's character races madly about New York, trying to make amends with those he feels he has wronged. The movie failed largely because the role required us to accept him as a total jerk. Even as gifted an actor as Robin couldn't pull that one off. In good movies and bad, through his wild highs and tragic lows, we loved Robin Williams just the way he was.

Outlying Areas – 35 Acre developmentsRural Crested Butte consists of several ranch type properties, individual multi-acreage tracts, and several developments of individual 35 acre parcels. These outlying areas offer acreage, animal rights, fishing rights, privacy & seclusion, incredible views, and lots of open space. As you may expect, in general the prices for these properties increase the closer you get to Crested Butte.
Popular 35 acre parcel developments include:
Roaring Judy Ranch – Roaring Judy Ranch is located across the highway from the Roaring Judy Fish Hatchery and is off the Jack's Cabin Cutoff to Taylor Canyon. There is still a working ranch in the valley bottom and the property has everything from pasture land to sagebrush to aspen groves. Because of the distance from Crested Butte (about 10 miles to the turn off), the prices are generally lowest here as compared with other 35 acre developments between here and town.
The Danni Ranch - Located about 12 miles south of Crested Butte, just off Hwy 135. This development consists of 19 thirty-five plus acre parcels, most offering spectacular views of the surrounding vistas. Owners within Danni Ranch have private fishing rights and access to the East River, for some of the best trout fishing in Colorado.
Reserve on the East River - Located about 11 miles south of Crested Butte, just off Hwy 135. If you desire privacy and like fishing, this is the place for you. Over twenty parcels of 35 acres or more, all with private fishing rights on the East River. World Class trout fishing, along with full-time on-site management, and a guest lodge, make this development unique and special.
Red Mountain Ranch - Located about 10 miles south of Crested Butte, via Hwy 135. This development consists of 25 treed parcels of thirty-five or more acres, all offering the privacy and seclusion desired from a much larger parcel. Many of the parcels offer spectacular views towards Crested Butte Mountain, while several offer other views of the surrounding vistas. Bring the horses!
Crested Butte Meadows, Crested Butte Highlands, The Ridge – These properties are located in the hills above CB South. Located on the hillside above CB South, properties in Crested Butte Meadows (CB Meadows) and Crested Butte Highlands (The Highlands) provide spectacular views up and down the valley. The area is mostly sagebrush with groves of aspen trees scattered throughout.
Hidden River Ranch – Hidden River is made up of 17 parcels that are each around 5 acres. There is 160 acres of common pasture land which provides a barrier between Highway 135 and the homesites which are perched above the East River. This common area can be used to keep horses within certain parameters.
East River Ranches - Located only 5 miles south of Town, East River Ranches is a small collection of 35 acres parcels, located on the East River. Each parcel offers privacy and seclusion, and has private fishing rights on the East River.
Whetstone Mountain Ranch - Located about 2 miles south of Town, this newer development consists of eight 35 acre parcels, all with easy access to Town, and the Golf Course.
Trappers Crossing - Located about 2 miles west of Town via Kebler Pass Road. This development consists several 35 acre tracts, all treed with pine, spruce, or aspen. Many of the parcels offer spectacular views of the surrounding mountains from the building envelope. Consider this development for views and easy access to Town.
Smith Hill Ranches - Located up Meridian Lake Road near Long Lake, about 2 miles southwest of Mt. Crested Butte. These 35 acre parcels offer privacy and seclusion, along with incredible mountain views.
Saddle Ridge - Perched high on a south-facing hillside 1 mile between Crested Butte and the ski resort, Saddle Ridge Ranches have some of the most awe-inspiring views around and are divided into 18 two to three acre estate lots parcels to build your dream home on. There is 70 acres of open space with trails & a private horse barn with 18 stalls for the owner's use. Saddle Ridge Ranch is the entry to the Lupine Trail, a coveted local favorite.
Glacier Lily - Glacier Lily Estates is located at the intersection of Gothic Road and Washington Gulch Road just south of the ski area. There are 36 acres in this subdivision divided into 20 individual homesites and very few lots are left and all lots are over one acre. Glacier Lily Estates has stringent covenants which protects the homeowner as it ensures a high quality development. All utilities are installed underground.
Irwin - The elevation of Irwin is 10,197 feet and it was founded in 1880. Irwin is nine miles west of Crested Butte and silver was discovered in 1879 and within six months, the town grew from 50 to 5000. Irwin was a busy place with hotels, sawmills, stores, churches, stamp mills and many dance halls and saloons. Today, many people have made Irwin their primary residence although it does only have seasonal access. In winter, you can have guided back country cat skiing tours through the Irwin Group. In the summer Irwin Guides creates custom-designed guided experiences. There is a beautiful lake that many people visit or camp next to in the summer.

City sets talks with police, fire unions
New London - The unions representing members of the police and fire departments will meet with the city administration later this week to discuss the possibility of contract concessions and saving the jobs of 25 firefighters and 10 police officers.
Todd Lynch, president of the police union, said he plans to meet with his membership today and a member of the mayor's administration on Thursday. The fire union has a meeting scheduled at City Hall for Friday, according to its union president, Rocco Basilica.
"We're going in there to make sure no one gets laid off,'' Basilica said Tuesday.
"We want to hear what they have to say,'' Lynch said, but he added he is skeptical because the budget process is not completed.
"If there's a referendum, or if they have to cut more, we don't want to put the cart before the horse,'' Lynch said. "We don't want to enter into an agreement and then have to go back to the table again.''
Chief Administrator Officer Jane Glover will represent the city during the meeting with the union officials.
Zak Leavy, the mayor's assistant, said Tuesday that the city contacted the unions in January and asked the police chief and fire chief for budget requests that would fully fund their departments.
"Now, because of the reality of the budget cuts, we have to negotiate. Everything is on the table,'' he said.
Mayor Daryl Justin Finizio announced last week that the city would have to lay off 25 firefighters and 10 police officers to stay within the confines of next year's proposed $83 million budget. The layoffs would save about $1.2 million.
Finizio told the City Council Monday that he did not want any city employee to lose a job and suggested the council add about $600,000 to the budget and raise taxes to save the 25 jobs in the fire department. The savings for laying off 10 police officers is about $580,000. The council did not add any money to the proposed budget Monday night.
Finizio said he was surprised that so many layoffs would result in so little savings, noting that overtime pay would be needed as a result of the lost positions.
Basilica said the fire department has been talking with the city about renegotiating its pension agreements. Because of the way the 401 savings plan is set up, eligible firefighters are unable to retire because of financial constraints, he said.
The firefighters want a defined benefit pension, similar to what police officers and other city union members have.
He said he has no idea how the negotiations will turn out.
"I have no confidence in the city right now,'' he said. "A hundred things could happen."
During Monday's meeting, City Councilor Adam Sprecace said he believed there was enough money in the budget to avoid layoffs. The budget passed on a 4-3 vote.
Lynch said he's unsure what the meetings will yield.
"Obviously there is controversy between the council and the mayor's office on whether there's enough money in the budget or not,'' Lynch said. "Some members of the council say there is enough money in the budget for no layoffs.
"But I'm going in with an open mind,'' he added.
What's next
The City Council approved the 2012-13 budget of $83 million for the second time Monday; the third and final reading of the budget is scheduled for Tuesday.
The mayor has line-item veto power over the budget and residents can petition for a referendum.
The police contract, which expires June 30, 2013, includes the following raises:
• 1.23 percent July 1, 2011
• .75 percent Jan. 1, 2012
• 1.25 percent July 1, 2012
• 1 percent Jan. 1, 2013
Annual longevity payments:
• $250 for five to 10 years of service
• $400 for 10 to 15 years
• $500 for 15 to 20 years
• $600 for more than 20 years.
The fire department contract, which expires June 30, 2014, includes the following raises:
• No increase in 2009
• 1.5 percent and $500 step increase, July 1, 2010
• 1.5 percent July 1, 2011
• 1.5 percent Jan. 1, 2012
• 2.25 percent July 1, 2012
• 2 percent Jan. 1, 2013
• 3.5 percent plus $500 step increase, July 1, 2013.
Longevity payments as of July 1
• $500 for 10-15 years of service
• $600 for 15 to 20 years
• $800 for 20 to 25 years
• $1,000 for 25 or more years.

Man goes fishing, ends up catching potentially world record breaking catfish
A Vacaville man named Sean Moffett might have just broken a world record.
The Northern California chiropractor went fishing over the weekend in Clear Lake, and though he had a slow start, he'd wind up reportedly catching a catfish that could break an International Game Fish Association all-tackle world record.
The current record, according to International Game Fish Association Outreach & Education Manager Jack Vitek, stands at 80 centimeters. That means that Moffett's fish — reportedly measuring 89 centimeters from the nose to the tail — may indeed shatter that record.
"This particular record category is relatively new (~5 years) and is 100 percent catch and release," Vitek writes in an email to SFGATE. "As the name implies, this category gives recognition based on the length of the fish – rather than the weight, which is what all other IGFA record categories use."
Moffett's catch was made public by Clear Lake fishing guide Matt Allen, who is the creator of a fishing blog called Tactical Bassin. Allen recorded a video with Moffett (above) about the catch, wherein they discuss the equipment he used that morning on the lake.
"It was quite the adrenaline rush first thing in the morning," Moffett said.
However, Vitek says that despite reports, the International Game Fish Association has yet to receive Moffett's world record paperwork.
"We have not yet received the application," he says, "but we look forward to doing so."

Solid Product
Solid construction
Simple operation
It works
No manual required which is fortunate because most of the Techpro camera/DVR/NVR manuals are very badly written.
Quite Satisfied
2 of 2 people found this posting helpful
IT Manager 20+ yrs., needed small unit to power couple IP phones. Very pleased. Order was smooth, shipping was quick enough. Product has good solid well-built feel to it. Best of all it works exactly as advertised. I liked that it has a dedicated uplink port, as well the long power cords on the adapter. Based on my experience, I have no problem recommending the vendor or the product.
4 Port POE Switch with 1 Gigabit Uplink

Nice compact power supply for POE IP network megapixel cameras. This unit can handle a total of 4 cameras at once and it doesn't need any special configuration. The power adaptor works well and supplies the 12VDC to the cameras without any overheating of the switch. Nice little unit.

Author Notes: I grew up eating a bastard version of affogato, the Italian dessert that cleverly melds gelato and espresso. At night, I'd pour the leftover coffee from my parent's drip coffee maker over my ice cream. I liked the coffee-flavored ice shell that formed on the ice cream and the puddle of coffee milk in the bottom of the bowl. This caffeinated treat may also explain why, as a child, I was often up with my father watching ice hockey on TV late into the night.
Proper affogato has much more going for it. The mix of hot and cold, the bitter and sweet, and, of course, the fluffy cream cap that pools beneath the gelato.
This is the dessert that you want in your back pocket, ready for guests at a moment's notice. Keep a good stock of ice cream (a good life rule, generally), and I'm sure you have espresso or strong coffee around. If not, let's not discuss it. And spoons. Yes, you'll need spoons! —Amanda Hesser
Serves: 4
pint vanilla gelato or ice cream (the good stuff!)
long shots espresso
- Scoop the ice cream into 4 bowls. Pour a shot of espresso over each mound of ice cream. Serve quickly!

Dad murders daughter at mall, police say
Police say a 36-year-old man killed his 8-year-old daughter before also fatally shooting himself Sunday afternoon.
The father and daughter were inside a car parked next to Macy's. Just minutes before the double shooting, the girl's mother called police to alert them that her husband was at the mall and suicidal.
The mother, father, and daughter had been shopping together when, for unclear reasons, the father started making suicidal threats, Capitola Police Chief Terry McManus said.
When police arrived at the mall, the woman directed officers to where they could find the car. Officers found the girl and girl's father inside suffering from gunshot wounds.
Paramedics attempted CPR, but both were declared dead shortly after at the scene.
Police declined to release the girl's name, nor the father's name on Sunday.

Well, Rick Reilly appears to have gotten this one first on Twitter as well.
Whether it's true or not is a matter for debate.
Hours after the Panthers beat the Eagles Monday night, Reilly took a shot at Panthers quarterback Cam Newton, accusing him of dawdling, apparently as evidence of a diva attitude.
"Cam Newton is really quick, until it's time to get dressed," Reilly tweeted yesterday morning. "Took him 54 minutes last night. Then did media. Team waited on bus for 40 mins."
Well, it wasn't a Steve Young bro-stare, but the Panthers have given Reilly the stink-eye.
Panthers assistant director of communications Steven Drummond tweeted out a denial today.
". @ReillyRick report that Cam had team wait 40 minutes on bus is completely false," Drummond wrote. "Cam wasn't even the last player out of the locker room."
". @ReillyRick Cam also took time to meet with @Eagles clubhouse equipment guys after meeting with media," Drummond added in another tweet. "He signed their Wall of Fame."
Newton's become an easy target, especially for people who made up their mind about him when he left Florida. The whole "icon and entertainer," comment didn't help, and neither does the fact he plays for a mid-market team with a 3-8 record.
And when the message is coming from a team PR staffer, you expect a passionate defense of a player.
Sort of like you expect Reilly, once known as one of the most talented sports columnists ever, to not have become a ridiculous and embarrassing caricature of himself.

Quote From: noidman
Wondering if anyone can help ? Maybe someones been in same situation and can help. I have a friend that has been coming to me for answers, and a shoulder to cry on. Here's my friends dilema, It's a long story so I'll try and shorten it up. His wife is a crack addict. She has been selling stuff out of house most anything worth anything. She has what I believe to have put the 2 children in danger, has them in car when she's high leaving them with others at a bar and so on. She told him she has now been cheating and had sexual encounters for drugs. He is the soul provider, she is home with the kids she has also wrote bad checks stole money. He is afraid everyday to go to work not knowing what he might come home to that day. He came home today to find her around town with another drug user or dealer that admitted to him to giving her drugs. Here he has no family and all of 2 friends here in N.Y.. He doesn't know where to turn for help with her. He worries about care for his children if he reports his wife. He doesn't want to lose his good job on account of her mistakes. He's worried about providing a home for his children and taking them away from their mother, and being resented by his children for it. My problem today is he asked me today " O.k. where do I start then If I decide to take action where do I turn to?"I was at a loss. He's contacted a lawyer and was told if he left home it would be considered abondonment. If he turns her into authorities how does he take care of children without losing his job. He is really worrying me with his depression. He's really at a loss for where to turn and what to do from here. Any suggestions would be helpful and greatly appreciated. He loves his wife and wants her to get help but she refuses any. So how does he carry on ? Is there an organization where he can get help or some answers..?
I was in a similar situation, but it was my ex-husband who had the problems. I tried everything, but nothing seemed to work. Her husband can't make her get help, she first has to acknowledge that she has a problem and then she will be able to get help. If he continues to stay with her then he is enabling her. Those kids should be his number one priority, because if something happens to those kids while they are still together the authorities and child protective services will be looking at him as well because he is allowing this stuff to go on his house. Have him look for support groups in his area, if he has health insurance, then have him get in contact with a therapist, they can even help him in getting support and help in other areas. I know the thought of him leaving her and he supporting those kids on his own may be very scary, but it can be done.
