The End of Windows XP is Here!
Starting today, Windows XP users will no longer receive technical assistance, security updates, or hot-fixes to their PCs. This leaves Windows XP users vulnerable to hackers, viruses, and other malware until they upgrade or migrate quickly to a different version of Windows.
While Windows has been an extremely successful and popular operating system since its release in 2001, it's time for XP users to move to a newer, more reliable, and more secure operating system. Laplink offers several affordable tools to make that process easy, while allowing a high degree of customization.
Laplink's PCmover is the only software that automatically moves all selected programs, files, and settings from an old PC to a new one, or from an old operating system to a new one. PCmover is easy to use, regardless of technical skill, thanks to a step-by-step wizard that helps users customize their migration experience by keeping everything or selecting exactly what they want to transfer. With PCmover, there is no need to transfer data to external storage and no need to reinstall applications. PCmover does it all automatically!
PCmover also comes with Free Transfer Assistance available 24/7. Simply call the toll-free number, and one of Laplink's certified PC migration experts will guide the user through the entire migration process at no additional cost. Continue reading "The End of Windows XP is Here!"

NEW Ideas:
Rap Slam/Poetry Slam
Are you and your friend good with words? Hold a "slam" event---writing rap lyrics or poetry about drug use. Invite some local teachers, doctors, nurses or pharmacists to judge the contest. Ask all participants to read or rap their own entries, and send the winning ones to email@example.com. Who knows? We might post them right here on our site!
CHAT Day Event
Convince your teacher to let you participate in CHAT Day—being held January 28, 2014. Ask if you can use the media room at lunchtime and order pizza while everyone asks NIDA scientists questions about drug use. If you don't get your questions answered right away, check the transcript that gets posted a few days later. You can search for your answers by your user names! http://drugfactsweek.drugabuse.gov/chat/
- See Rockville, MD. Students from Walter Johnson H.S. participate in NIDA's National Drug Facts Week Chat Day Event, 2013.
"Shatter the Myths" Book Club
Order 30 copies of NIDA's teen booklet Drugs: Shatter the Myths (it's free!) Invite 30 friends (or hey—your whole class) to sit down and have a discussion about the drug facts in the booklet. Discuss these or other questions:
- Why do teens try drugs?
- What is dangerous about drugs?
- What should teens know about using prescription drugs to get high?
- Is there such a thing as drugs that help you study better?
- Do you know people who drink and drive?
To order the booklets, send an e-mail to NIDA drug fact specialists at: email@example.com
I Resolve...
It's the time of year for New Year's Resolutions! Have everyone at your gathering pick a New Year's Resolution "Buddy." Each participant should write down 3 resolutions for 2014 related to healthy living and staying drug free--- pass out NIDA's teen booklet for inspiration. Then hand the list to your buddy. Promise that you will help each other stay on course all year long. The lists can be personal, seen only by your buddy, or you can share them and read aloud to the crowd. To get the conversation going, invite a scientist to come and discuss the challenges we face when trying to change our behaviors. Good luck!
Football Trivia party!
With the Super Bowl coming up, why not use it as an incentive to get kids to think about leading healthier lives? Hold a football themed party. Have some of your friends who are big football fans prepare a trivia contest. Questions could be about your favorite Super Bowl team or your own local college or high school football stars. Before you start the contest, issue the Drug IQ Challenge as a warm up. Invite an expert to come and talk about the dangers of performance enhancing drugs. But most of all---have some fun!
Celebrate Ground Hog Day with a Shadow Art party!
Will the ground hog see his shadow during National Drug Facts Week? Set up a big screen; project the National Drug IQ challenge and have paper copies for kids to fill out. Collect the papers but don't announce the winning scores yet. Then shine a light directly onto the screen for a hand shadow event. Ask for volunteers to participate as contestants. Randomly assign different images (e.g. rabbit, dog, bird) to contestants and see what kind of hand art they can create on the screen. (Find a good "Hand Art" site on the Internet for ideas and let the contestants take a look.) Have kids vote on their favorite hand art images in a secret ballot. Then before giving prizes to the winners of both the IQ Challenge and the hand art contest, have a drug expert address the group (a scientist, doctor, pharmacist etc.) The drug expert will go over the IQ Challenge questions and explain the correct answers. Open it up for more Q and A about drugs. At the end, give prizes!
There's Snow Business like Show Business!
Hey it's getting cold outside! Time for an indoor karaoke or talent show. Before the acts start, display the interactive IQ Challenge on a big screen and have your friends fill out the answers on paper. Then---let the show begin! Kids can vote on their favorite acts. But before you award any prizes, announce the best scores for the IQ Challenge competition. For an extra dash of winter, serve "sno cones" or ice cream!
Peer into your Future
Suggest that your school hold an assembly to focus on the dangers of prescription drugs. Project NIDA' s "PEERx" interactive videos on a large screen. Let the kids shout out their favorite "paths" to choose. Invite a local expert (a doctor, scientist, nurse or pharmacist) to talk about the choices made by the kids. To prepare, check out NIDA's PEERx site at teens.drugabuse.gov/peerx/.
Hold an Addiction and Art Contest
Art can be a powerful expression of emotion around the theme of drugs and addiction.
- Teen artists can paint or draw images that represent addiction or living around people who use drugs. Display entries at a school art show. Kids can vote on their favorite.
- Ask teens to use their phone cameras to take images related to the theme of drug use and addiction, and then create a collage with their photos. Display on a page on your school's Web site.
For ideas and a toolkit on how to hold an Addiction and Art show, go to the Web site created by artists who support NIDA's mission: http://www.addictionandart.org
Teens vs. Adults Challenge
Set up a projector that can light up the National Drug IQ Challenge on a big screen. Divide the groups into teens and adults. Have each group take the test and see who is smarter about drugs! You could add some of your own questions using the NIDA for Teens Web site, which is filled with hundreds of facts about drugs. Make up some nice prizes for the group that wins.
Concert with Local Bands

Hand out the "Drug Facts: Shatter the Myths" booklet to attendees.
Graffiti Fact Wall
Create a graffiti type wall on poster paper with facts about drugs, slogans, facts/myths, posters, and messages about where to get help.

HBO Addiction Q & A
NIDA and HBO have teamed up as co-presenters of an Addiction film series. Check out HBO's addiction films and show a few of the films for a "movie night."

Sidewalk Art

Scatter clues around your school or community. Offer some drug related trivia questions on Facebook---when kids answer correctly you can give them a tip on how to find the next clue. Whoever gets to the finish line first wins a prize! Get trivia facts from the NIDA Web site, the NIDA for Teens Web site or the "Drug Facts: Shatter the Myths" booklet.
School Assembly
There are many inspirational people in your local community working with recovering addicts, or are themselves in recovery and would love to talk with teens about their experiences. Plan a school assembly for them to share their stories and pair them with an expert to answer teens questions. Hand out the "Drug Facts: Shatter the Myths" booklet.
Songwriters Competition
Use your musical talent to spread the word about drugs and drug abuse. Sponsor a songwriters contest based on real drug facts and offer prizes to the most creative message!

Have a scientific expert answer the questions and post the questions/answers on the website along with the winner of the contest!
Take it to the Streets
Volunteer at community events and hand out information regarding drugs and drug abuse. Download some of our materials to help you with your outreach, or copy some of the Qs & As from the "Drug Facts: Shatter the Myths" booklet. Attend a city or town council meeting and ask for ideas about events.

Andy Dick played to a room full of cops when he returned to the stage in Huntington, West Virginia on Saturday night, less than 24 hours after being arrested on felony sexual abuse charges.
Tom Schaefer, who runs the Funny Bone Comedy Club in Huntington, told Access Hollywood that Dick's show was tamer than it had been the night before and that he opened the show by asking, "Are there any cops in the building?"
According to Schaefer, a chorus of shouts went up from an estimated 30 officers in civilian clothes who were in attendance. Dick is scheduled to perform at the club again on Sunday night.
He is due in court for a hearing on February 2. As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, the former "The Andy Dick Show" star allegedly groped two individuals at a bar following his Friday night performance at the Funny Bone. In police reports obtained by Access, Dick is alleged to have grabbed the crotch of a security guard before allegedly committing the act again and "then kissing" a second "victim."
The comedian is currently serving out a three-year probation over a 2008 incident for which he was arrested on suspicion of drug possession and sexual battery.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) Jim Boeheim became the third Division I men's coach to reach 900 wins as No. 3 Syracuse beat Detroit 72-68 on Monday night in the Gotham Classic.
Boeheim, 68 and in his 37th year at his alma mater, is 900-304. Mike Krzyzewski (936) and Bob Knight (902) are the only other men's Division I coaches to win that many games.
Detroit Mayor Dave Bing, Boeheim's college roommate, teammate and fellow Hall of Famer, and Roosevelt Bouie, a star on Boeheim's first team in 1976-77, were in the Carrier Dome crowd of 17,902.
James Southerland had 22 points for Syracuse (10-0), which increased its home winning streak to 30 games, longest in the nation. Detroit (6-5) had its four-game winning streak snapped.
Orange point guard Michael Carter-Williams, who had 10 or more assists in four straight games and six altogether, finished with 10 assists and 12 points, his sixth straight double-double.
Juwan Howard Jr. and Doug Anderson both scored 18 points and Nick Minnerath had 13 for Detroit. Ray McCallum Jr., Detroit's leading scorer at 19.4 points per game, finished with nine, while Jason Calliste had seven.
No. 12 MISSOURI 102, SOUTH CAROLINA ST. 51
COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) - Jabari Brown, playing in his first game since Nov. 17, 2011 when he was a freshman at Oregon, scored 12 points for Missouri.
Brown, 6-foot-5, 205-pound guard, became eligible at the end of the first semester. He entered the game with 16:01 left in the first half. After a missed 3-pointer, he assisted on a fast-break layup by Negus Webster-Chan. He scored his first points on two free throws with 9:35 remaining.
Phil Pressey's jumper 17 seconds into the game gave Missouri (9-1) the lead for good. An 18-2 run midway through the first half gave the Tigers a 31-11 lead with 5:58 left.
Matthew Hezekiah led South Carolina State (4-7) with 14 points.
Earnest Ross led the Tigers with 16 points and Alex Oriakhi grabbed 11 rebounds. Laurence Bowers' 11 points gave him 1,001 for his career, becoming the 44th Missouri player to reach the 1,000-point plateau.
No. 21 UNLV 62, UTEP 60
EL PASO, Texas (AP) - Bryce DeJean-Jones scored 12 points and Anthony Marshall added 11 for UNLV.
Jaques Streeter scored with 27 seconds left to cut UNLV's lead to two points. DeJean-Jones had an opportunity to make it a two-possession game but missed two free throws with 15 seconds left.
Konner Tucker had a last-second opportunity for the Miners after taking an inbounds pass from the far sideline for a 3-point attempt which bounced up and off the rim.
Katin Reinhardt scored 10 points for UNLV (9-1), which had a 17-2 run in the first half and still led by as many as 15 points in the second half before the Miners started their closing run. Anthony Bennett added 10 points - nine in the second half - for UNLV.
No. 22 NOTRE DAME 74, IPFW 62
SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) - Pat Connaughton scored 18 points for Notre Dame, more than doubling his 7.9 points-per-game average and he had six rebounds and five assists.
Notre Dame (10-1) led 40-28 at halftime then opened the second half with a 9-5 run over the first 4:21, capped by a two-handed stuff by Jack Cooley off a full-court fastbreak pass from Jerian Grant. The Irish extended their lead to 19 points on a layup by Garrick Sherman with 13:35 to play.
Cooley had 14 points and eight rebounds, while Scott Martin scored 13 points on 3-for-5 shooting from 3-point range for the Irish, who shot 52 percent for the game.
Luis Jacobo and Joe Edwards both scored 11 points for the Mastodons (5-7).

Temporal radiation was an exotic form of energy first encountered by the crew of Enterprise NX-01 in 2152. It produceed disorienting time-distortion effects which caused those exposed to it to relive the same moment repeatedly, while time outside the radiation's influence proceeds at a normal pace.
The radiation was being produced by a 31st century Earth vessel, which Enterprise had discovered drifting in space. Examining the pod, Commander Charles Tucker and Lieutenant Malcolm Reed experienced the effects of the radiation firsthand, after removing a panel from the exterior of the pod. As they engaged in the same conversation over and over again, they soon began to realize what was happening. Upon examination by Doctor Phlox, they discovered that the particle density was too low to allow any lasting effects, but Captain Archer nevertheless ordered the launch bay sealed off.
Later, after coming under attack from Tholians, who sought to claim the pod for themselves, Archer and Reed attempted to load a warhead from a torpedo into the pod, with the intention of detonating it after the Tholians had gained possession of it. Their effort was hampered, however, by the effects of the temporal radiation, which caused them to experience the same events repeatedly as the Tholian attack on Enterprise continued. Archer and Reed were eventually successful, but the Tholians managed to deactivate the warhead before Reed could detonate it. Eventually, the pod was retrieved by temporal agents in the 31st century, and the Tholians withdrew. (ENT: "Future Tense")

Luke's Big Day
Luke made his first communion on Saturday. It was the day I was hoping to attend the most and i was so glad to be there. All the work and nerves were made completely worth while when he seen me in the chapel. His little face lit up. Pity he doesn't looked so thrilled in our picture.

Advice for Relatives/Friends
- It will usually be easier for your partner to go out with you rather than alone. At the start, this is very useful. So make yourself available.
- Always do exactly what you have jointly planned. NEVER do anything the two of you have not planned. If you have agreed to meet at a certain place at a certain time, make sure you are there ahead of time.
- You may have to cope with irritation, anger, criticism etc. from your partner. These are often signs of stress. Try not to react to this. At the same time, try to keep your own irritation, anger and criticism under control. It is very hard coping with a partner who has this problem so accept that this problem is putting you under a lot of stress as well.
- If something goes wrong, don't criticise. Talk it over, work out why it didn't work and plan ways of coping next time.
- Offer all the encouragement you can, especially after a setback. Pats on the back after success are crucial.
- Remember that this is taking a lot of guts on the part of your partner to face these places which cause so much fear so make sure he/she knows that you are with them 100% of the way.
- Make sure that as your partner improves, his/her dependence on you eases. Encourage your partner to take on challenges alone.
- Accept that your own life will chance. You may have got into habits of paying bill, doing the shopping, making decisions. You will have to encourage your partner to share these tasks.
- Always be there for your partner. Give him or her a shoulder to cry on when the going is bad.
- Why not a rewards to show how you feel about the hard work and progress - a bottle of wine, chocolates etc

New Download Available & More News
Last Friday I met with my new Occupational Therapist David again. I was giving LOTS of paperwork and a relaxation cd. I haven't listened to the CD yet but I am going to put it in the download folder if anyone wants to try it out. Just click www.dropboks.com the username is email@example.com and the password is blogger. Also for those of you who don't know there are other downloads available there like Paul McKenna and the Linden Method.
So it was last Tuesday when i last wrote and I have more to tell. Gerry and i had been out for a meal, which i told you about and on the Wednesday we went out for food again. We went to the local pizza hut first but we had missed the buffet so Gerry wasn't a happy chappy haha, so we went for a pub lunch near by. It was delicious and i had a nice day out with him. Thursday was quieter. I went for a drive and popped into visit a friend but it was the weekend that was most exciting for me.
On Friday I had another successful driving lesson. We headed into Paisley, the place i used to dread most of all, but i drove there with no question and enjoyed my lesson. On Saturday we ventured back to Pizza Hut and this time we stayed. It was enjoyable but more of a challenge as it was VERY busy and we had to wait 15 minutes for a table. Queues and waiting have never been a strong point of mine but i just tried to read over the menu and talk to Gerry as distraction. It worked and the meal went well. From there I went back to Asda the big supermarket. It was less than a week ago that I had gone there with my dad and felt a little nervous but this time i wandered around happily with no nerves at all. I do think that positive thinking helps and obviously building your confidence.
Sunday was the big day. Sunday actually blew me away and by the end of it my head was all over the place. I got up and decided to take Luke swimming. I was excited at the thought of doing something for him as there have been so many years we have just spent time together in doors. He was thrilled at the idea so i packed our bags and headed for the pool. Luke didn't have him swim shorts so I had to drive to his house in a different town. He has lived there for 8 years and I have never seen his home! So it was very exciting to me to finally see where my brilliant boy lives.
We got to the swimming, again in this completely different town, and i was ok until we got pool side. We walked in and I was hit with this heat. It was very humid and it took my breath away for a second. Also since Luke is disabled i had to undress him and myself, so knew that If i felt panic and the need to run it was going to be awkward. Thankfully once i got out of my heavy clothes i cooled down and was able to breathe easily. We splashed around together for about an hour and had a total ball. I did notice my co-ordination in the pool was shocking. I didn't have the chance to go for a proper swim because i had Luke but i am definetaly out of practice!
From the swimming we drove to Burger King for a drive through meal. What a very normal day. Hmmm.... but it goes on.
Back at home i got myself ready and decided to go a drive with Gerry. The sun was shining and i was feeling good from the mornings swim so we headed off and before i knew it I had driven to Gerry's house. I think you all know how important this was for me. I really wanted to get there for so long, well it is almost a year since we met. Gerry was very very proud and was even more surprised when i told him i wanted to go inside. I spent sometime in his flat, rooting through his cupboards and drawers, learning about where my fiance lives. It seemed so bizarre that I had never been there before and it was nice to see where my other half spends his time when we are not together. After a while I said we should drive around town, it was time for me to see whats changed in the past 8 years.
I have noticed that my new problem is that I need to be the one driving the car to go anywhere. It means that I'm the one in control and the driving acts as a great distraction from the places my thoughts can sometimes go. But on Sunday i told Gerry he could drive for a change, i wanted to drive around the town and relax, enjoy the ride. We drove around and to be honest not that much had changed a great deal. Obviously there are new buildings here and there, shops with new names etc but my own village has changed more than Paisley.
I then suggested it was time to meet his parents. Yip I hadn't met them yet. I had an idea where they lived. I thought it was close to where I had taken some driving lessons but i was wrong. We seemed to be driving for a long time until we were in part of the town that I didn't recognise at all. I actually don't think I have ever been there and eventually i completely lost my bearings. But it was so bizarre because i just didn't care, I just got on with it. And so finally i met Gerry's folks. A really lovely couple who gave me a warm welcome and made me feel completely at ease in their home. They have no idea about my agoraphobia, Gerry has never told them for whatever reason, but they wouldn't have known anyway as i was relaxed and chatted away easily enough.
We left there late in the afternoon and Gerry asked if i would like to go meet a couple who he is friends with. I said Yes with no hesitation at all and even though the day was already going well i think he was a bit surprised. I did ask how long it would take to drive there so i must have been a little more anxious at this point but he said they lived 2 minutes away so i was fine with that. Well he lied lol. The drive took longer than that, or maybe an agoraphobics 2 minutes seems longer? But it felt like 10 minutes to me. Finally we got there and i met Andy and Fiona, a lovely couple who had been looking forward to meeting me ever since Gerry told them about me a year ago.
It was now dinner time and i was starving! There was somewhere I have always wanted to go for dinner but had never managed before. A small village called Houston in the opposite direction of Gerry's house. I drove there and did feel more anxious by now but was determined not to give in and just go for it. We had the more gorgeous meal together. Gerry enjoyed a few glasses of wine and some of there own brewed beer. When we got home i was totally exhausted. I was happy but as i settled into bed my mind started racing. Its as though it just doesn't understand whats going on. It is struggling to keep up with me. When that happens I do start to feel anxious again, but i just remind myself of how far i have come lately and if i had the strength to get out there and fight once, then i have it in me to do it again.
I'm sorry if this blog has been long winded but i wanted to show people just how much progress has jumped lately. I would say Sunday was the first day where I have travelled with no limits, no majorly negative thoughts, no anxiety and no worries since i first became agoraphobic. This has happened totally out of dedication and perseverance. Someone recently asked me how Gerry has been feeling about all these changes and thankfully he has been superb. He supports me 100%, is very proud and tells me this often and also we argue much less as our relationship is basically working the way he always wanted it to. He said he feels like part of a 'normal' couple now. So i am happy that he has been patient for a year and I think he is too, it seems that his patience had paid off. On Saturday I have the first major family day out to attend. Well the first in about 8 years, Luke's communion, So i will let you know how it goes.

"And lo, he shall suffer temptations, and pain of body, hunger, thirst, and fatigue, even more than man can suffer, except it be unto death; for behold, blood cometh from every pore, so great shall be his anguish for the wickedness and the abominations of his people.
And he shall be called Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the Father of heaven and earth, the Creator of all things from the beginning; and his mother shall be called Mary." (Mosiah 3:7-8)
The first part of this passage is beautiful, but the second part always used to confuse me. I mean, Isaiah gets the name technically wrong but communicates the concept clearly when he talks about "Immanuel," meaning "God with us." And to me, a God who communicates about the future more on the level of metaphor than in exact but meaningless specific terms makes sense. So it didn't make sense to me that God would send an angel to Benjamin with a literally accurate, but largely meaningless, prophecy about names.
For a long time, I figured it just must be the translation. Benjamin said something metaphorical or symbolic, and Joseph Smith translated it to Jesus and Mary because those are the names Joseph Smith knew. But when we went over the passage in Sunday school this year, the same old concern popped into my mind anyway: what would these names possibly have meant to people living long before Christ?
Sometimes I wish that I could just delete a concern as soon as I decide it's not really important instead of having it come up again and again. Sometime I wish that when something bothers me, I could just decide not to worry about it and that my brain would cooperate and I would never think about it again.
But it's a good thing our brains don't work that way, because this time just as soon as the concern popped into my brain, I realized there's a very cool possible answer. And so I'm glad the concern has stuck with me for over a decade: carrying a quiet little concern for a while is more than worth the insight that comes when the time is right.
Here's what I realized all at once in Sunday school:
"Jesus" is just another way of saying "Joshua." Which did have at least two meanings in the house of Israel long before Jesus was born. The name itself meant "God helps" or "God rescues." But it also would have reminded listeners of the prophet-leader Joshua, who (after their forty years of wandering) led the children of Israel into the promised land. So when King Benjamin says that there's going to be a son of God who comes and suffers, but that through his suffering he will be a greater Joshua, people may have understood the name as meaning that the anointed one wasn't just going to rule in the geographical land of Israel: he was going to lead us to a deeper Promised Land.
"Mary" is the later equivalent of "Miryam." Which literally means "bitter" and might have reminded the people that this Son of God would still have a mother who'd have to watch him suffer. But "Miryam" is also the name of Moses' older sister: the one who followed him down the river to make sure he was safe and who made sure that he'd have his mother as a nurse (and therefore be raised with a knowledge of his identity). That parallel is specifically significant if the people had the idea that the Messiah would simply come down the known Davidic line of succession and live his whole life as a celebrated king. By telling his people that the Messiah's mother would be a Miryam, maybe Benjamin was trying to explain that his identity would be secret. That only through the Miryam-to-come would he know where he really came from, and have the sense of incompleteness that drives the chosen out into the wilderness to search for the divine.
I'm glad I never stopped going to church because I didn't understand why King Benjamin would have given Jesus' and Mary's exact names. But I'm also glad a part of me stayed concerned enough about the issue to finally piece together what a prophecy about the names Joshua and Miryam might have meant to people who lived long before Christ. I didn't technically need that particular answer I suppose, but having the insight suddenly click like it did makes the passage feel more special to me: like the way a dream of God can turn a patch of desert into sacred ground.
It's not good, I think, to let your concerns interfere with your study or keep you from believing in the scriptures. But it is good to have concerns, because the day may come when those concerns burst into insight and make your relationship with the scriptures closer and richer.

Ontario Wine Brands Get New Logo
Filed Under Wine Branding
"Canadian wine country" may sound absurd to those not in the know but the land of the maple leaf also boasts a robust fermented grape industry in Ontario. One challenge for local vintners though is that many Canadians might not know this.
Even worse, many Canadians who do know this are having trouble figuring out just which wines are home-stomped and which are imports. Consumers looking to buy local can identify 100-percent Ontario-made wines by noting the VQA (Vintners Quality Alliance of Ontario) symbol. The problem? Grape Growers chairman Bill George Jr. explains, "Several studies have shown a lot of customers don't know what VQA means." However, the alliance has a solution. Too bad it is more of the same. [more]
In the interest of helping consumers better identify the Ontario-made brand, the organization's marketing board introduced a new, very characteristic logo: A clutch of purple grapes surrounded by a trillium flower. The logo is more colorful and noticeable than the old black VQA version.
However, the new logo does not advance the winemakers beyond their existing quandary. While a more colorful, attractive logo may be an improvement in theory, the fundamental problem remains; if a lot of customers did not know what VQA means, why are they going to know what the new (prettier) logo means?
What the alliance really needs is a strong, extensive outreach and education program for its brand. This is especially true since the alliance's marketing board says the new logo is intended only to compliment the existing VQA symbol, not replace it.

His parents, however, insisted on staying in the Carroll Gardens neighborhood they knew and loved. Somewhat reluctantly, Scotto remained in Brooklyn and took over the family business, Scotto's Funeral Home.
Though he now lives in Bay Ridge, a nice neighborhood with a slightly suburban feel, Scotto soon discovered his heart had always belonged to his hometown of Carroll Gardens. His children would move there of their own accord when they got older.
"I decided that I was going to do what I could to convince the Italian-American community in Carroll Gardens that they did not have to flee to the suburbs, that we could improve conditions here in what we now call Carroll Gardens," said Scotto, who formed the Carroll Gardens Association in 1964.
He made it his mission to clean up the filthy and foul-smelling Gowanus Canal. In 1975, he secured $458 million from the federal government to build the Red Hook Water Treatment Plant. He co-founded the Gowanus Canal Community Development Corporation, an organization funded by the Department of Housing & Community Renewal, in 1978.
Scotto couldn't be happier that the Gowanus Canal is now clean enough to actually have fish swimming in it, but his dream isn't complete yet. Development along the canal still faces fervent opposition.
"It's very difficult for me to understand how people could possibly be against development in this day and age, when we're in the throes of a recession, that people were scared stiff we were going into a depression," said Scotto. "We need economic development."
Nonetheless, private developers are eager to move in. Scotto said the developers are waiting for Toll Brothers to begin building.
"We will continue to fight to support the developers in going in there and turning the neighborhood of the Gowanus Canal into a neighborhood that we can be proud of instead of being embarrassed over," said Scotto.

See related article posted today: "Experts stress vigilance over emerging, unpredictable diseases"
Oct 29, 2008 (CIDRAP News) – Saying Americans are threatened by a rising tide of emerging and resurging infectious diseases, the nonprofit group Trust for America's Health (TFAH) today issued a report calling on the US government to launch a comprehensive campaign to battle the microbes at home and abroad.
"Americans are more vulnerable than we think we are, and our defenses are not as strong as they should be," TFAH Executive Director Jeffrey Levi, PhD, said at a news briefing on the 44-page report, "Germs Go Global: Why Emerging infectious Diseases Are a Threat to America."
"Infectious diseases are not just a crisis for the developing world. They are a real threat right here, right now to America's economy, security, and health systems," Levi commented in a news release.
Quoting an estimate from the National Intelligence Council in 2000, the report says emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases "will continue to kill at least 170,000 Americans annually" and "will complicate US and global security over the next 20 years."
TFAH, based in Washington, DC, said the nation should take an array of steps to combat infectious diseases, such as building up public health capacity and improving disease surveillance both nationally and globally and adopting strategies to develop new vaccines, antimicrobials, and diagnostic tests. The group called on congress to take specific steps toward those ends, such as fully funding the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Agency (BARDA).
A disease smorgasbord
In the report and news release, TFAH cites a wide range of new and older diseases that threaten or may threaten the nation, including HIV/AIDS, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), H5N1 avian influenza and its potential for sparking a pandemic, tuberculosis (TB), hepatitis C, Lyme disease, Legionnaire's disease, and dengue fever.
"We also have the diseases of old that continually threaten us," said Kathleen Gensheimer, MD, MPH, Maine's state epidemiologist, speaking at the press conference. "In Maine we worked up a large outbreak of mumps this past winter, over 100 cases," which necessitated costly control measures. Gensheimer served on a peer review board for the report.
More than 130 cases of measles—once thought to be largely eliminated because of immunization—have been reported in the United States this year, the most since 2001, the report notes. In addition, the nation continues to face a risk of terrorist attempts to spread diseases such as anthrax, botulism, plague, and smallpox, it says.
Another danger is methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), which causes serious skin, soft-tissue, and bloodstream infections. Once confined mainly to healthcare settings, MRSA infections are increasingly occurring in the community, the report notes.
The report cites 13 factors spurring the emergency of infectious diseases. The leading ones include antimicrobial resistance; globalization; climate change, which leads to the spread of disease-carrying insects; poverty and the associated lack of healthcare and poor sanitation; war and civil strife; and high-risk behaviors.
"The trends involving most of these factors are in a direction favoring the microbes," said James Hughes, MD, an Emory University professor of public health who formerly headed the infectious disease branch at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Hughes, a peer reviewer of the TFAH report, spoke at the news conference.
Chinks in the armor
Despite these threats, the private research and development pipeline for countermeasures against most emerging diseases is "stagnant or nonexistent," the report asserts. Reasons include a common view that these diseases are confined to the developing world and that vaccines and drugs for them are not profitable for US drug companies.
Since 1998, only 12 new antibiotics have been approved in the United States, and only two of those had a truly new mechanism of action, the report says. And despite some progress on vaccines, there are still no highly effective vaccines against three of the biggest killers: HIV/AIDS, TB, and malaria.
Disease surveillance capabilities also fall short, according to TFAH. The United States has a number of surveillance networks, but overall the nation lacks a "robust, coordinated capability." Internationally, there are programs that monitor particular diseases, but the support for tracking emerging diseases is "relatively weak," the report states.
Also needed are better diagnostic tests—especially "point of care" tests. Exhibit A is TB, for which the standard test in most of the world is more than 50 years old and only 50% accurate.
A Manhattan Project?
The TFAH report argues that a decidedly major effort is needed to remedy the situation: "The US government should lead efforts to detect and conquer emerging infectious diseases with the same energy it devoted to tackling polio in this country during the last century."
Gensheimer likened the scale of effort needed to that in the Manhattan Project, which developed the first nuclear bombs during World War II.
The report offers a lengthy set of recommendations for the nation, which largely mirror those made by the Institute of Medicine in its 2003 report "Microbial Threats to Health." Here are the key ones:
- Governments at all levels should provide the resources to build the ublic health capacity to respond to infectious diseases. In particular, the CDC should lead an effort to provide the nation with a disease surveillance system that is interoperable among jurisdictions and agencies.
- The nation should step up its leadership in enhancing global capacity to respond to infectious disease threats.
- The federal government should take the lead in "promoting the implementation of a comprehensive system of surveillance for global infectious diseases."
- The government should lead the development of a comprehensive, long-term research agenda, including strategies for vaccines, antimicrobials, antibiotic resistance, diagnostics, surveillance, and insect vector control.
- The government and all components of the health system should expand efforts to reduce the inappropriate use of antimicrobials.
- The government should work with academia and private groups to recruit, retain, and train public health professionals to combat emerging infectious diseases.
- Public health education efforts aimed at stopping infectious diseases should be stepped up. Efforts should focus on hand hygiene, cough etiquette, and following vaccination recommendations.
TFAH also appeals to Congress to take specific steps related to the above. For example, Congress is urged to:
- Fully fund BARDA. Congress authorized $1.07 billion for the program for 2006 through 2008, but actually provided only $102.1 million for fiscal year 2008.
- Pass the proposed Strategies to Address Antimicrobial Resistance (STAAR) Act.
- Restore funds for the CDC's programs to support state and local public health preparedness at least to the fiscal year 2005 level of $919 million, versus the $746 million provided this year.
In response to a question about the chances of increasing funding for public health in the current financial crisis, Levi commented, "Even in this difficult financial climate we're going to see federal investments in infrastructure, roads, alternative energy sources. Making sure in difficult financial times that people are protected from disease also has to be a priority. The level we're talking about is not huge compared to what's being proposed to invest in other areas."
Gensheimer added that every dollar spent on vaccines is estimated to save $27 in overall healthcare costs, and that only 4% of US health spending is for prevention.

The Jerusalem Post is reporting that Egypt, the target of a weapons ban by the US, has a new BFF in Russia and is asking the Putin government to expedite some military hardware for them:
Egyptian army chief Field Marshal Abdel Fattah al-Sisi has recently intensified contact with the Russian Defense Ministry in order to expedite the completion of an arms deal.
According to senior Egyptian sources that the Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Rai quoted in a report on Wednesday, the deal with Russia includes advanced aircraft, monitoring equipment and other sophisticated weapons that would be used to fight terrorism emanating from Sinai.
The urgent move to close the deal for needed weapons comes after a report on Tuesday that the White House was delaying the delivery of an arms deal that included 10 Apache helicopters. An Egyptian military source told the London- based Arab daily Asharq al-Awsat that the arms deal was intended to help put down the Islamist insurgency in Sinai.
The delay continues an ongoing US partial aid and weapons freeze that has largely been seen as punishment for Sisi's military coup and crackdown on former president Mohamed Morsi and his supporters.
It probably comes as a surprise to some that we're still playing this game given the ties to terrorism the Morsi government certainly had. Although a "coup" is not the preferred method of changing a government, when engaged in realpolitik, sometimes a coup does you a favor by removing an even worse government. And in this case, remember how the Obama administration went through some pretty extensive verbal contortions not to call this a "coup".
That being said, another rather dubious sanction has had the predictable result. Countries that want advanced weapons don't only have to shop in the US. And the unwillingness of the US to release weapons ordered (and presumably paid for) by Egypt became enough of a sticking point that Egypt has decided to turn elsewhere for help. The result? An ally we nurtured for decades as a means to furthering the Middle Eastern peace process has turned away from the US.
Another in a long list of foreign policy failures by the Obama administration.

Not much to report here except that these two guys re-signed. While Montgomery may add depth to either the D-Line or OLB positions (and he may not be as bad as a fill-in vs being the starter), I'm just not that excited about these signings. I don't think these 2 guys are terrible (and I do think Hunter has some possibly untapped potential), but I just can't get excited about this or really, any 2009 off-season signing.
Tremendously boring off-season when this is all I can think of to post. I think the lack of action this off-season is actually hurting my brain.

If a man or woman harms a spouse or child physically, emotionally or sexually, it's likely that spouse or child isn't the offender's only victim of abuse. If people can harm fellow human beings, research shows, it's easy for them to hurt a pet. If a greater number of Mainers — including animal control officers, school counselors and veterinarians — know about the connection between animal abuse and interpersonal violence, and know what to do about it, there's a greater chance intervention could save someone's life.
Gabriela Rodriguez, 55, of Kennebunk, is one of a few people in Maine working to highlight what's sometimes called "the common bond." Abuse of an animal is often not an isolated incident but a red flag that others in the household might not be safe. Most often, abusers have access to smaller pets, such as dogs and cats. It's important, Rodriguez said, to remember that larger animals, such as horses, are also at risk. Abuse doesn't discriminate.
Though Maine has strong animal protection laws — earning the No. 2 rank in 2012 from the Animal Legal Defense Fund — much more can be done to illuminate the abuse link and to bridge divides between human and animal services.
Mandated reporters like teachers and counselors, who are required by law to tell the Maine Department of Health and Human Services of suspected child abuse, should also report if they suspect animal abuse happening in the home of a child. In the same way, animal control officers who see mistreated animals should report if they have a reasonable belief children are also at risk.
In addition, more social service agencies can ask about the treatment of pets on intake forms. Maine law continues to improve: This year the Maine Legislature passed legislation to give judges the authority to include pets on temporary protection from abuse orders.
Rodriguez is a member of the York County Linkage Coalition, which formed in 2010 to educate communities about the connection between animal cruelty, child abuse, domestic violence and other forms of interpersonal violence. She also helps run Blixx Horses to educate the public about horses and their care. Her two horses have visited local schools to interact with students in kindergarten through grade 12, area hotels for public presentations and senior living communities to provide therapy for residents.
Rodriguez's work focuses not just on creating awareness about the link between animal abuse and interpersonal violence but on the positive: helping people appreciate animals and treat them humanely.
"If we view life or if we view an animal with such an uncaring attitude and with disregard, why would we not view human life the same way? I think if you care enough to try and take good care of animals then that can be extended to people as well," Rodriguez said. "It's empathy."
In one 1999 study, more than 71 percent of battered women reported their batterers had harmed, killed or threatened animals. Seventy-five percent of those incidents happened in the presence of the women or children as a way to coerce and humiliate them. Another study found that 68 percent of battered women reported their animals had been subject to violence, with 87 percent of incidents occurring in the presence of the women and 75 percent occurring in the presence of children.
The effects on children can be long-lasting, said Leah Paltanawick, prevention educator for Kids Free to Grow in Kennebunk and another member of the York County Linkage Coalition. Seeing pets abused, let alone a loved one, can lead children to imitate abusive behaviors or come to accept physical abuse. It's traumatic for children to see their pets hurt, and the trauma has the potential to affect children as they grow — harming their future health and productivity. Pet abuse by children is one of several predictors for determining who is at higher risk of becoming a batterer.
Those fleeing domestic violence can find a listing of safe havens for pets on the Humane Society of the United States website.

Senior investigators from the UN nuclear watchdog have ended two days of intensive talks with Iranian officials over allegations the Islamic Republic may have carried out tests on triggers for atomic weapons.
The semiofficial Fars news agency said the two sides agreed to hold another round of negotiations on Feb. 12.
Fars and other Iranian media did not say if any progress was made, but a senior diplomat from an International Atomic Energy Agency member state in Vienna said shortly before talks ended that they were "not going well." He demanded anonymity because he was not authorized to divulge confidential information.
UN team leader Herman Nackaerts had hoped the IAEA would be able to "finalize the structured approach" that would outline what the agency can and cannot do in its investigation.
The IAEA wants to revisit Parchin, a military site southeast of Tehran, to probe allegations that Iran may have tested components needed to develop a nuclear weapon. Tehran has steadfastly denied any such activity.
Iran says the agency's suspicions are based on forged intelligence provided by the CIA, the Israeli Mossad, Britain's MI-6 and other intelligence agencies, materials it has not been allowed to see.
Iranians say they have bitter memories of allowing IAEA inspections and replying to a long list of queries over its nuclear program over the past decade. Tehran has in the past allowed IAEA inspectors twice into Parchin, but now it says any new agency investigation must be governed by an agreement that lays out the scope of such a probe.
Iran says it cannot allow its security to be compromised by allowing the IAEA access to non-nuclear facilities simply on the basis of suspicions raised by foreign intelligence agencies Tehran considers enemies.

Officials say that thousands of emails between General John Allen and Florida socialite Jill Kelley are flirtatious, but the general denies a relationship. NBC's Andrea Mitchell reports.
Updated 4 p.m. ET: Allegedly "inappropriate" emails between U.S. Gen. John Allen and the woman who sparked the investigation into CIA Director David Petraeus do not signify the two had an affair, a defense official told NBC News on Tuesday.
"There was no affair," said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. The emails in question could be misconstrued, the official said, predicting that the investigation will prove Allen's innocence.
Allen, the commander of the International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan, is under investigation over allegations that he exchanged "inappropriate" emails with Jill Kelley, a senior defense official told reporters earlier Tuesday.
A difference of opinion appeared to be brewing at the Pentagon about how to characterize the emails, with another official calling them flirtatious.
Kelley, a Tampa, Fla., woman who has acted as a volunteer "social liaison" with military officials at MacDill Air Force Base, inadvertently launched the investigation that led to Petraeus' resignation by complaining to the FBI about anonymous emails she received. FBI agents traced the allegedly threatening emails to Paula Broadwell, Petraeus' biographer.
Emails on 'coming and goings' of Petraeus, other military officials escalated FBI concerns
During the investigation, agents discovered emails between Petraeus and Broadwell that were indicative of an extramarital affair between them, according to government and law enforcement officials.
Petraeus, who was appointed 14 months ago to head the Central Intelligence Agency, announced his resignation on Friday, citing an extramarital affair.
Word of the investigation into Gen. Allen's involvement came early Tuesday, when U.S. Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta issued a statement during a flight to Australia for a meeting with defense officials there, saying that the FBI had referred "a matter involving" Allen to the Department of Defense's Inspector General.
Those who know the two women at the center of General David Petraeus' affair scandal are speaking out. Jill Kelley's brother says she is "dedicated" to her husband, while Paula Broadwell's friend calls her "a pretty great person." NBC's Kristen Welker reports.
"Today, the secretary directed that the matter be referred to the Inspector General of the Department of Defense for investigation, and it is now in the hands of the Inspector General," Panetta said.
Panetta's statement did not include specifics, but a senior defense official traveling with him told reporters that Allen "was under investigation for "inappropriate communications" with Kelley.
The official also said the investigation involved some 20,000 to 30,000 pages of material, mostly emails, which were sent from 2010 to 2012, adding that Allen "disputes that he has engaged in any wrongdoing in this matter."
Later in the day, however, a defense official at the Pentagon told NBC News that the number of emails between Allen and Kelley was inflated.
The FBI eventually discovered that the emails received by Jill Kelley, a close friend of the Petraeus family, were sent by Paula Broadwell. And as they dug deeper, the affair between Broadwell and Petraeus came to light. NBC's Andrea Mitchell reports.
"That is a mischaracterization," said the official, speaking on condition of anonymity. "The communications with General Allen were lumped in with a lot of other email traffic."
The official said that the Allens and Kelleys were "family friends," and the emails were written in that manner. Many of the emails were not personal communications between the general and Jill Kelley, the official added, but included Allen's wife. And many were between Allen's wife and Jill Kelley, with General Allen just copied, the official said.
"What we're dealing with is the possible perception of inappropriateness," the official said, but it will become clear that there was no wrongdoing. "This is not at the level of the director of the CIA."
According to a senior U.S. military official, Pentagon General Counsel Jeh Johnson read "a number" of the emails between Allen and Kelley before he advised Panetta to refer the matter to the Inspector General.
"Leon Panetta didn't make this decision lightly," the official said late Tuesday. The emails were more than just calling one another "sweetheart," characterizing them as flirtatious, the official said.
While the emails may not prove an affair or even be inappropriate, they were unprofessional, the official said.
Allen will meet with investigators over the next few days, but then he is expected to head back to Afghanistan to continue in his role as Commander of ISAF, according to the official.
Panetta's statement said that Allen would remain commander of ISAF during the investigation and that he was "entitled to due process in this matter."
But Allen's nomination to take over as head of U.S. forces in Europe and NATO's Supreme Allied Commander in Europe, was put on hold "until the relevant facts are determined," Panetta said.

Meet the people who have been pulled into the scandal that caused Gen. David Petraeus to resign.
Allen was in Washington, D.C., preparing for his Senate confirmation hearings which were originally scheduled for Thursday, NBC News reported.
Allen had no advance warning about the investigation, a close aide of Allen's told NBC News. He was alerted to the probe by the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Martin Dempsey Monday night ET. Allen had a number of meetings scheduled for Tuesday on Capitol Hill, although the aide was unsure if they would take place.
Allen's connection to the Petraeus investigation also seems to have caught the Defense Department off guard.
"This came as very surprising news, to say the least. No one in the Pentagon is leaping to conclusions just yet," a senior defense official traveling with Panetta told NBC News. "It's important to review the materials to determine the facts, and it's too early speculate about where this will lead. In the meantime, Gen. Allen needs to focus on the war effort, which he's successfully led since last year."
The ISAF was also unaware of the investigation until late Monday or early Tuesday, and it declined to comment, in a written statement, referring all questions to the Defense Department.
Allen, a highly decorated officer, took over as ISAF commander in July 2011, and was nominated on Oct. 10 to take over as NATO commander, the same time that his successor at the ISAF was named as Gen. Joseph Dunford.
The confirmation of Dunford, currently assistant commandant of the Marine Corps, is now expected to be fast tracked.
"The secretary has respectfully requested that the Senate act promptly on that nomination," Panetta's statement said.
NBC News' Courtney Kube, Jeff Black, Ian Johnston and Rachel Elbaum contributed to this report.
Some members of Congress are saying that they or, at the least President Obama, should have been told about the investigation into the director of the CIA while it was going on. NBC's Pete Williams reports.

About Close By Me
"it's a simple idea really: allow users to tie content to a location, and then let other users search for that content based on their own location"
Close by Me (CBM) is an online community allowing users to create postings: messages, notifications, announcements, etc. The content is then associated with a general location (postal/zip code). Other users in the community can search for information based on their own location, area of coverage (radius or distance from them) and items of interest, in close proximity or far beyond their own city.
Postings can be anything from jobs, sale items, rant and raves, discussions, personals, real estate, activity groups, services, etc. CBM is in essence a combination of interactive classifieds, notifications and discussion groups. CBM is an innovative twist on an old idea, it differentiates its self by allowing people to search for items of interest by their location and proximal distance, thereby changing the relevance of the results in what they are looking for (hence the name "Close By Me"). Each step in CBM allows users to expand and change their search by hopping from one location or category to the next. Through each step, message by message, users can continue an open journey that may meander thru different categories, locations, and points of interest.
Close by Me (CBM) was launched in the spring of 2009, which explains the relatively low amount of messages in the system.
