Developing the peacebuilding practitioner
At CJP, our goal is to prepare leaders capable of guiding a variety of processes that promote a world that is less violent and more just. Because this work happens in many locations and under a wide variety of conditions, you will be encouraged to develop a specialization within your degree that is aligned with your vocational goals. You will work with your advisor to assess your interests and goals and, together, you will plan a course of study that will give you:
- An understanding of justice, conflict, violence and change processes,
- A foundational set of skills for responding to conflict, violence, and injustice,
- An increased capacity for self-reflection in action, and
- A specialized area of knowledge and practice that can help you find your place in the field after graduation.
During your time at CJP, you will:
- Engage in hands-on practice opportunities in the community, alongside faculty and classmates.
- Integrate local practice into your coursework.
- Meet regularly with CJP's practice coordinator to reflect on your vocational path and plan practice experiences during your studies.
- Be able to apply for paid and unpaid practice projects.
- Receive assistance in choosing your practicum placement and preparation for your practicum.
- Have support from faculty and staff to achieve your learning goals.
The results of your study will be assessed in many ways.
- You will receive grades in your classes.
- You will write integrative papers in Foundations I and Foundations II.
- You will demonstrate an understanding of research methods suitable for your area of practice.
- Faculty members will assess your practice skills in at least one practice course.
- Classmates will give you feedback on your work as a member of a team.
- You will also assess your own development as a peacebuilder through reflective activities.
Documenting your learning journey
As a student, you will create a portfolio, to present your skills to future employers. Your advisor (and possibly other faculty members) will review your portfolio as it is being developed. Faculty members will also review your portfolio near the end of your studies, at which time they will be looking for:
- Comprehensive final (integration paper from Foundations II)
- Documentation and reflection on practice activities
- Documentation of specialized area of study
- Practicum application and reflections
- Reference letters (if desired & available)
- Reflective papers (or other pieces that demonstrate your vocational growth and capacity for self-reflection and learning)
- Resume
- Sample course papers & other pieces (e.g. you might want to start a blog and put sample blog posts in here)
Other than the resume, which should be prepared for sharing with potential employers or partners in the field, and your comprehensive final, which is written, you may choose to present your portfolio in any medium that can be captured in a digital space. We encourage you to think creatively and to use video, music, art, the spoken word and other media to present a clear picture of you as a peacebuilding leader.

Lynnzie Leavitt celebrated her 12th birthday in 2005 without her father.
"He actually landed in Iraq on my birthday," the 19-year-old recalls. "I remember he sent me an e-mail because he couldn't be there."
That was Utah National Guard Staff Sgt. Jeff Leavitt's first deployment overseas. When he returned 15 months later, things were different, his daughter said.
"I just wasn't as much of a little kid," she said. "I was more independent."
Jeff Leavitt's second deployment — a 12-month stint in Afghanistan — came in 2008, when Lynnzie was 16. When he returned she had become her mother's right hand around the house, was driving, serving on a National Guard youth board and was making plans for college and beyond. She had earned her mother's trust, she said, but she and Dad clashed a bit over small things, such as her lack of a curfew.
"He had a hard time," said Lynnzie Leavitt, who believes her father came home more "serious" but also more appreciative of his family.
A guardsman since 1997, Jeff Leavitt has missed birthdays and other milestones, including Father's Day celebrations and about 12 wedding anniversaries, by wife Kassie Leavitt's count. But the absences have also drawn the family closer, Lynnzie Leavitt said.
Jeff Leavitt agrees.
"It woke me up a little bit to what I had at home and what I needed to take care of," Jeff Leavitt said of deployment. "Some people, deployment changes their lives for the worse and for some people it changes for the better."
That's not to say everything was easy. Kids of deployed parents take on more responsibilities, and news reports can bring shots of fear and uncertainty. All three of the Leavitt kids have had to grow up faster and worried about things most kids don't, Lynnzie Leavitt said.
"When they are deployed, you get into a rhythm of that. You almost have to forget what's happening," she said. "I think I was holding myself back from being happy a lot."
Still, the University of Utah student said she wouldn't give up the experience.
"It's pushed me to do a lot of things I had never thought I would, " she said. "It's made me more outgoing, because ... through my dad's service I've have had a lot of opportunities."
Lynnzie Leavitt has served as president of a Utah National Guard youth group and has mentored other guard kids. Now she's bent on a career as a psychologist, specifically working with families struggling to cope with post traumatic stress disorder.
She also wants to help civilians better understand the challenges military families face.
"I think one of the hardest parts of being a military kid is that you're not always surrounded by other people that are necessarily aware or sensitive to what's going on. It's hard to listen to that," she said. "I understand. It's been a long war ... But what my dad did is important. It may not seem relevant to daily life in Utah, but it's important in the context of the rest of the world."

Tech Review: 2007 Mercedes-Benz CL550
This 2007 review is representative of model years 2007 to 2010.
By Doug Newcomb of MSN Autos
Bottom Line:
The Mercedes-Benz 2007 CL550 hits a technological highpoint in performance, safety, comfort and convenience.
It's easy to tell that the 2007 Mercedes-Benz CL550 is a breakthrough vehicle by its appearance alone. The absence of a B pillar instantly distinguishes the classy coupe. Its gaping front grille, flared fenders and raked roofline also make it stand out. The view from the driver's seat is equally impressive: yards of high-quality leather covering the doors, dash, seats and center console, and as much hand-polished burl-walnut as a small boardroom.
The CL550 we tested (with a sticker price of $111,675) is more than just easy on the eyes. While this preening machine is designed to pamper its lucky driver and passengers, it's also a neat flawless blend of high-tech performance, safety, comfort and convenience.
Perfect Example
The CL550's 5.5-liter V8 is specified at 382 horsepower at 6000 rpm and 391 lb-ft of torque at 2800-4800 rpm. This power is channeled through a 7-speed automatic with driver-adaptive programming that supposedly "learns" the style of the driver and adjusts its shifting accordingly. Buttons on the back of the steering wheel allow manual up- and downshifting, although I found that there was close to a two-second delay in the response on upshifts, which caused the engine to approach redline before the tranny eased into the higher gear.
Surfeit of Safety
The Night View Assist system is the most noteworthy of the CL550's safety tech. Infrared beams projected from the CL550's front grille illuminate an area up to 500 feet out in front of the vehicle so that an IR camera in the rearview mirror can scope it out. The camera sends a grayscale image to a large multifunction display in the instrument cluster. Unlike BMW's night-vision system, which uses a screen mounted in the center of the dash, the CL550 screen puts night vision in the driver's line of sight. But to accomplish this there's a slight tradeoff.
The part of the multifunction display that shows the night-vision image otherwise serves as the speedometer (which is incorporated below the night-vision screen when the system is activated). Driving eastbound one day close to sunset, I glanced down at the speedometer and noticed that it had completely vanished. It wasn't until I made a turn that I discovered that the screen had simply washed out in the bright sunlight.
Super Seats
The Driving Dynamic feature also adjusts the front seats' side bolsters in relation to the car's movements. When making a left-hand turn, for example, the right-side backrest bolster fills with air to compensate for your torso's natural movement to the left. Plus, you can also select four separate backrest massage modes.
The COMAND controller makes it simple to accesses most of the CL550's tech gadgets. These include a GPS navigation system that uses a 20GB hard disc to store map data instead of DVDs for a faster response time, and a sweet-sounding Harman/Kardon audio system that includes 11 speakers powered by 600 watts. The system's 6-disc DVD/CD changer is hidden behind a trim panel at the bottom of the center stack, along with a PC Card slot that can be used to play MP3s files. The car doesn't have an aux-in for a portable media player, although an optional iPod-integration kit is available for an extra $425.
You'll also have to spend more if you want to access the COMAND controller's hand-free telephone functions (or use the separate telephone keypad just in front of the COMAND control) since it's only compatible with optional Mercedes phone cradles and Bluetooth accessories that cost $220 to $420. Maybe this is a minor quibble with a car that's so loaded with technology—and it may be chump change for someone dropping this amount of dough on a ride—but Bluetooth is becoming so prevalent that almost any car half the cost of the CL550 now features it.

Essential Info
From Embryology to Evo-Devo
Although we now know that ontogeny (individual development) does not actually recapitulate phylogeny (evolutionary transformation), contrary to Ernst Haeckel's famous dictum, the relationship between embryological development and evolution remains the subject of intense scientific interest. In the 1990s a new field, evolutionary developmental biology (or Evo-Devo), was hailed as the synthesis of developmental and evolutionary biology. In From Embryology to Evo-Devo, historians, philosophers, sociologists, and biologists offer diverse perspectives on the history of efforts to understand the links between development and evolution.
After examining events in the history of early twentieth-century embryology and developmental genetics—including the fate of Haeckel's law and its various reformulations, the ideas of William Bateson, and Richard Goldschmidt's idiosyncratic synthesis of ontogeny and phylogeny—the contributors explore additional topics ranging from the history of comparative embryology in America to a philosophical-historical analysis of different research styles. Finally, three major figures in theoretical biology—Brian Hall, Gerd Müller, and Günter Wagner—reflect on the past and future of Evo-Devo, particularly on the interdisciplinary nature of the field. The sum is an exciting interdisciplinary exploration of developmental evolution.
Contributors: Garland Allen, Fred Churchill, Elihu Gerson, Scott Gilbert, James Griesemer, Brian K. Hall, Manfred D. Laubichler, Alan C. Love, Jane Maienschein, Gerd B. Müller, Stuart A. Newman, Marsha L. Richmond, Günter P. Wagner, William C. Wimsatt, and John Wourms

Tiny prints has a great selection of adorable cards it was definitely hard to pick the winner for our announcement. Easy to setup & personalize and I love the save to favorites feature. Great service and quick shipping! Received the cards faster than expected."
"This card came out beautiful. I used a color photo with solid blue on the back and it looks perfect. A little smaller than I would have liked but overall it looks nice."
"Great birth announcement and super easy to use website. I especially like the address book that I could pre- populate before the birth happened. And being able to save your projects and finishing them at a later time is very convenient."
"The birth announcement was gorgeous. When I received cards I noticed 2 were damaged. It looked like a printing smudge. I called customer service. Even before I offered to take a picture of cards to show the error, customer service resolved issue by sending me replacements. Not only did they send replacement they sent extra cards. I will continue to rant and rave about how amazing your customer service is. I have received phone calls, emails n text messages from people telling me how beautiful our announcement is. Thank you!!!!!"

See page 8 for more information. The Signpost photo: Robeen Gillum) WSC Tuition deferments may change By Scott Summerill Managing Editor A proposal designed to control tuition deferments and alleviate the overload on the phone-in registration system is going through revision processes before it is submitted to the Weber State administration for approval. Emil Hanson of student administrative services said the proposal is fashioned after a similar system being used at the University of Utah. The first stop on the road to revision for the proposal was the ASWSC Senate. The senate put the proposal through a scrutinizing session of revisions and finally approved it at Monday's meeting. Hanson said the senate made a lot of good suggestions, but not all of them will be appropriate. For example, the senate proposed that students should be able to request a deferment over the phone when they register. According to Hanson, many students that need deferments don't know about it until the deadline for tuition payment is upon them. Also, there wouldn't be a counseling session on the rules of getting a deferment and how to pay it back, which would cause problems down the line. One of the key factors in dealing with deferments that the proposal would affect is that students would be forced to pay a fee. Fees are not present in the current system. (see DEFER on page 5) Schools may be keeping Asian-Americans off campuses CPS-Some of the best schools in the country may be trying to keep Asian-American students off their campuses, the U.S. Department of Education said Nov. 22. "We have gotten indications there may indeed be a quota system being used" at Harvard University and the University of California at Los Angeles, said Gary L. Curran of the Education Dept., Which is now investigating the "indications." Various Asian-American groups, however, have charged certain selective schools of conspiring against them for years, hoping to keep the students often viewed as high achievers from taking over their campuses. "I believe there have been efforts to suppress what should have been enrolled at UCLA and (the University of California at) Berkeley," asserted Henry Der of the San Francisco-based Chinese for Affirmative Action. It may be happening elsewhere, too. Federal investigators are probing alleged quotas at Camegie-Mellon University in Pittsburgh and Evergreen Valley College in San Jose. If the investigators determine the schools have been using quotas, which are illegal, they could be cut off from federal funds, Curran explained. Even if they don't, Asian-American students often profess felling unwelcome at their colleges. "when you admit more Asian-Americans, other groups are pushed out," said Hei-Wai Chan, a Ph.D candidate ate the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Since many schools set goals for how many black and Hispanic students they want to recruit, Asian-American students feel they are admitted instead of white students, Chan added. "That creates a certain amount of tension." Linda Asato, a former undergrad at Berkeley who is now a grad student at Columbia University in New York, also remembered feeling "guilty for being Asian. You feel guilty that you pushed someone else out" Administrators feed the feeling, if only subconsciously, argued Prof. Meyer Weinberg of the University of Massachusetts, who studies campus race relations nationwide. "If you look at the role of Ivys and other prestigious colleges," he said, "it goes beyond education. Part of their role is to preserve a certain group of people." Schools that owe part of their success to serving an upperclass, white elite, he maintained, would feel their status threatened by admitting too many Asian-American students, no matter how talented they may be. As proof, the groups have noted such colleges reject qualified Asian-American students in disproportionate numbers. (see ASIAN on page 2)

For two years prior to that time, campus news was disseminated via announcements posted on a bulletin board known as the "Signpost". As a result, the masthead of the first issue of the paper itself featured a rudimentary wooden sign with the title spelled out in rustic-looking letters. Over the years the paper has been published continuously, though the look, size and style has changed several times.

Atlanta's reputation as a great place to make movies continues to flourish, but not all the movies made here are great. A number of made-in-Atlanta films have been named to various media outlets' "Worst Movies of 2012″ lists.
Yes, lots of great filming projects happen here. "Flight" with Denzel Washington has been quite critically acclaimed, and "The Walking Dead," which films here is extraordinarily popular and well done. And, this isn't an indictment of Atlanta. Many of the projects here just happened to film here; they weren't necessarily set here.
So, a look at those who made the lists:
Time Magazine named "The Odd Life of Timothy Green" and "What to Expect When You're Expecting" to its worst list. We disagree, by the way. "Timothy," a supernatural movie about a boy who sprouts from the garden starring Jennifer Garner, was sort of weird but sweet. "Expecting," an ensemble comedy about expectant parents from assorted backgrounds starring Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Lopez, Brooklyn Decker, Chris Rock, Dennis Quaid, Anna Kendrick, Elizabeth Banks, Chace Crawford, Ben Falcone, Matthew Morrison et al was pretty predictable but sort of cute. And it showcased Atlanta very nicely.
But what do we know? "Expecting" and "Odd Life" also made Red Eye Chicago's list of worst movies of 2012. "Expecting" was also included on an MSN list of the year's worst films that also included "Joyful Noise," with Dolly Parton and Queen Latifah. No argument there. A musical scene riffing on Usher's hit "Yeah" toward the end of the movie was the highlight of that one, and it was all too brief.
The movie "Alex Cross," which was not filmed here but did star Atlanta's Tyler Perry in the title role, also made Time's worst-of-2012 list. We're hard pressed to disagree with that call. (There's one scene in which Perry's character is literally holding a bowl of disembodied fingers, and someone thought this was the time to launch into some cop-buddy banter. Ecck.).
Movie Insider named "Wanderlust" with Jennifer Aniston and Paul Rudd and "The Watch" with Vince Vaughn, Ben Stiller, Richard Ayoade and Jonah Hill to its list of box-office losers. This did not include commentary like the Time list, but rather compared budgets to box-office hauls to produce the list.
We didn't see "Wanderlust," (neither did anyone else, evidently) so we can't agree or disagree but "The Watch" definitely deserves its place on any worst-of list. It made a number of others including Rolling Stone's list of worst movies of summer 2012. Gross, profane and largely unfunny, this movie about aliens and a group of frequently and pointlessly disgusting suburban dads made us want to pour sand in our eyes.
Meanwhile "American Reunion," the latest of the "American Pie" movies, which starred Chris Klein, Jennifer Coolidge, Eugene Levy, Menu Suvari, Jason Biggs, Alyson Hannigan and Seann William Scott, made Entertainment Weekly's list of "worst movie lines of 2012″ with this gem: "Don't mess with this class of '99, b***h!" (Really? That's one of the worst?) A scene in the baseball movie "Trouble With the Curve" starring Clint Eastwood, Amy Adams and Justin Timberlake made it to a Deadspin list of the year's worst movie scenes. It was not the one where Adams' and Timberlake's characters walk into a bar in Georgia and find the locals clogging; we would nominate that one.
The Lantern, which is Ohio State University's campus newspaper, included "The Three Stooges," the Farrelly brothers comedy that filmed in Big Poppa's Buckhead mansion and starred that starred Chris Diamantopoulos, Sean Hayes, Will Sasso, Jennifer Hudson, Jane Lynch, Larry David and Sofia Vergara on its year-end list of duds without criticizing it too harshly.
"(W)e will all probably forget that "The Three Stooges" movie ever happened," the paper wrote. Yep, probably.

I think that racism always shows itself when white people start talking about Tyler Perry. Sure, he may be the most successful black African-American movie producer in the world, but white people always have to act like he's a joke. When do you think is a good time to start in with the cop-buddy banter? Do you know Oprah? I don't think so. So, until you racist whites start doing something with your lives, please, keep Tyler Perry out of it.

Where did anyone state anything racist abut Tyler Perry? His movie bombed, a scene is criticized (you know this happens in life). The only racist comments are from you. Do you know Oprah? I don't think so.
December 11th, 2012

D. Anderson Smith….you do realize that this piece isn't about race, right? The Time named off a list of bad movies and one of them happens to have Tyler Perry in it. How is that racist?
December 11th, 2012
8:34 am
Seriously, D. Anderson Smith? If you actually sat through the movie Alex Cross you would know there's nothing racist about saying this was a terrible movie. I did sit through and and I know it was not Tyler Perry's best. I happen to be a huge Tyler Perry fan and have seen all of his movies. Some are great…this one was not!

Could it be that picking Atlanta or Georgia is usually a financial and not a creative choice?

@ D Anderson Smith..Please shut up. Tyler Perry has been producing movies that portray black women as perpetually angry, fat, foul-mouthed, coarse, always down on their luck and what not and we're supposed to give him a pass because he "may be the most successful black African-American movie producer in the world"??
Like Seriously???
I'm sick of black folks calling a spade a feeding bottle because we want to use it to eat..and anyone who does not agree with "our views/notions" is automatically "racist"…Its very annoying and really idiotic..And PLEASE, stop this "Successful black people" card that you play. "Do you know Oprah"??? Do you EVEN know her??? Why should I know her?? What has she done for me?? Is she Jesus?? Did she pay my college tuition?? Heck NO!..Is she going to help pay down the down-payment for my home?? HECK NO, not in a million years..so stop playing the "do you know Oprah" card as if I am supposed to shiver in my boots because I don't. How come we (blacks) ARE the only race who play the "successful black person card"?? The richest man in the world is not Bill Gates, not Warren Buffets. Its Carlos Slim Helu..a Mexican. I have NEVER in my 8.5 years in Atlanta EVER heard a Mexican tell me "Oh Do you know Senor Slim? I dont think so"
In case you missed it, I am black. (Now cue the white person in a black rebuttal)..

Now that we've given D. Anderson Smith something to think about, we can move on to the actual article.
I actually liked Wanderlust and The Watch. Yes, both have really stupid raunchy humor, but I think it's funny. I have a weird movie mentality because I love stupid humor movies, hate horror movies and have an thing for Pixar movies.
December 11th, 2012
9:06 am
I highly doubt that D. Anderson is for real. Was probably just looking to start some mess this morning. He/She knows that if they type something like that, inevitably someone will post something racists out of anger. It's an immature game of amusement. Pure silliness.
December 11th, 2012

D. Anderson Smith is probably a racist white who typed that out to make it seemed like black ppl are always trying to play the race card—–no way a real person actually think like that
December 11th, 2012
9:28 am
Simple statistics… most of what is greenlit is crap, and so it would make sense that the subset of those which are shot in Atlanta is mostly crap as well. But, there are still some good ones.

As a native Atlantan, I think it's fine to promote the city through the film media. But I'm a bit cynical about it, because I have yet to see on traffic jam scene in any movie filmed in Atlanta (when the story and characters are also based in Atlanta)!
They always just show the good stuff: Piedmont Park, the gleaming skyscrapers, etc. Of course, we don't see too many massive gridlock and traffic scenes from films made in L.A. or New York, either. Promotion.
And for transplants who bash Atlanta, look, unlike Chicago, N.Y., L.A., San Francisco, etc., Atlanta has no dramatic waterfront, port, much less a navigable river! So, it's amazing the city is here at all!
Technology built Atlanta, starting with the railroads, and then the automobile and the airport and air travel. But look, my fellow Atlantans, the use of cars is a deal with the devil. We need to go back to emphasizing rail (both here and nationwide), to move both people and freight.
And Atlanta needs 10 times more rapid rail, as well as light rail, and a massive subway system as well, if we're ever going to become a truly "International City". We must do this BECAUSE we have no waterfront or navigable river!
We can't function efficiently, with 6 million+ people, relying on cars and freeways, and ever expanding roads that remain gridlocked. It can't go on this way. One major accident on 400 can paralyze the entire Greater Atlanta area, like a clogged artery causes a heart attack or stroke.
December 11th, 2012

Oh, by the way, it's not like they don't make crummy movies on the west coast.
December 11th, 2012
10:27 am
LOL… I heard a comedian do a joke about Tyler Perry, they compared him to a cheap white wine. Something to the effect, that they're both pretty uncomplicated and give you a headache if you indulge a little too much. Anyway, Tyler Perry would be awful regardless of what color he is, he just happens to be black.
December 11th, 2012
11:43 am
I always thought these list were stupid anyway, no critic can tell me if i like a movie or not. I thought wanderlust and especially the watch were both entertaining, I got a few laughs anyway.
December 11th, 2012
12:28 pm
They might film some awful movies here in Atlanta, but they also film the most successful cable show of all time, The Walking Dead. Either way, they are both good for the economy and the state of GA. Oh, and D. Anderson Smith is a huge racits, whether he/she is black, white, or any other race. Racism goes in all directions, not just one.
December 11th, 2012

When Jay Leno use to do stand up full time, he had a bit about how Men had the 3 stooges gene but woman did not.
I thought the stooges movie was good. I guess I have the gene
December 11th, 2012
1:26 pm
Wow. D. Anderson Smith you are a huge dbag. Tyler Perry is horrible. If anything he is racist by only pandering to the black community…just as George Lopez only caters to latinos.
Not only does he alienate whites with his brand of "humor"–he is totally unoriginal. We have already seen Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence don the fat suits for laughs–and it wasn't funny then. The fat suit is clown shoes.
Get it together reverse racist.
December 11th, 2012
1:35 pm
To be fair–Jack Black also wore the fat suit and was not funny either.
So there you have it. Fat Suit not funny in any color.

Jennifer Brett, exactly what do you have against clogging? Whether you realize it or not, it's very popular in Georgia as well as across the Southeast, and having it in the scene from "Trouble With the Curve" was totally appropriate. I know those cloggers personally — one of them was my sister — and they work very hard and are very dedicated to their hobby. You obviously have no idea what it takes to be a clogger or you wouldn't be looking down your nose at them.
December 11th, 2012
1:40 pm
What a day–now the cloggers are offended. Sweet Lord. I am going back to bed.
December 11th, 2012
1:59 pm
I will say that D Anderson is way off base bringing up racism on this article. I am a AA male and I think the movie Alex Cross was not very good and neither was Perry's acting.
However, for those that say that the race card is stale. All you have to do is read some of the comments left here on the AJC and you will see time and time again a lot of racist shots taken about individual African Americans and the African American community as a whole. It becomes very disheartening and down right sad at some of the remarks not to mention the frequency of them.
December 11th, 2012
2:02 pm
As Hazel says above, this is purely a financial decision to make movies here right now. They have been given massive tax breaks over the past few years. This happens a lot and more than likely all this filming will end within a few years and they'll move to the next town. No real reason to stay here unfortunately.
December 11th, 2012
2:07 pm
It may have something to do w/ the massive subsidies we offer for filming here. Films that were considered risky bets at best now have dramatically lower production costs (thanks GA taxpayers!) so they get greenlit w/o much regard for being poorly written/planned. Films that have much higher production budgets (big stars/big scripts/etc) tend to care much more about locations fitting the storyline vs. wandering the same sections of Peachtree repeatedly.
I certainly enjoy spotting my condo tower in the skyline but we could probably spend that money getting kids to graduate high school or attracting more sustainable businesses (not just tax break jockeys like NCR, First Data et al).
December 11th, 2012
2:11 pm
I am also AA male and I hate to say it…Tyler Perry sucks! My wife makes me watch all of his movies. The cross dressing lady was funny the first movie but after 25 of the same plot its not entertaining anymore kind of a embarrassment. Dude can't act to save his life point blank..(Tyler Perry action hero hell no!!)
December 11th, 2012
2:15 pm
Break (and Hazel),
So you really think it's the location a movie is shot as to whether or not it is any good? Really? Because that is essentially what you are saying.
Guess the Thrashers always stunk because the building they played in was horrible. Or that the Braves have not been as successful the past 10 years because Turner Field isn't as good of a place to play as Fulton County Staduim.
Get real and get a clue. It is highly rare that any movie is good or bad based on where it is shot. Period.
December 11th, 2012
2:15 pm
D. Anderson cannot be for real… For such a stupid comment is just meant to stir up people. Using a fake name undoubtedly, and probably a white person just who gets kicks saying mean stuff? Give us a break…
December 11th, 2012
2:17 pm
D Anderson: Im White, and i don't hate Tyler Perry for being black, i dislike him because TBS replaced Braves baseball at 7:30 nightly with his awful azz show! Never liked him since! Now is he a niggr? No… niggrs are pple like g-unit, or any of the other millions of fools who have tons of kids out of wedlock and don't support them, and brag about beating their women!
December 11th, 2012

@ Johnny Applepeed
That's pretty much what it is even I've seen Tyler Perry's movies, and although the first couple were funny. When I began to wise up it was the same stuff over and over again. I couldn't stand it no more, and not only that there was a certain undertone I didn't like about it either.
That Dark Skin Blacks seem to be the bad guys and the light skin guy was the hero every time.
Still overall if not for success of Madea Tyler Perry is no where nada. Also it does help he's promoting to black women(no offense, but even I'm sure y'all know that as well).

The only thing racist I seen D. Anderson Smith, was you…
Tyler Perry's movies are mostly good and some really good and some not so good but they wont be acknowledged alongside most other movies or hit mainstream until his movies are targeted at the maistream population and audience Which he dont have to do nor need to do. Its his niche but there is nothing racists if many people arent blown away by his work…..
December 11th, 2012

somebody talked about rail, or the lack of it.

Had they not done so, by now rapid rail could extend all the way to frea.king ALABAMA!

My question is this: Do black people find Madea films and his sitcoms on TBS funny?? I've watched a little bit of it and can't see how anyone would think it's funny. I think Eddie Murphy, Chris Tucker, Dave Chappelle and Mike Epps are funny. I don't get Tyler Perry humor. I don't imagine toomany blacks "get" Seinfeld either though. Do you have to be black to understand and appreciate the humore because honestly I am dumfounded how that guy is a billionaire.I'll at least feel better if you tell me "it's a black thing"

There needs to be a moderator for these comments. Half of your are blubbering about racism, some of your are talking about our transportation system, and some of you are talking about the actual location of scenes.

Anyone who goes to see Tyler Perry's movies either have no taste in movies or have no taste at all.

$1.3 Billion economic impact,
How am I clueless? We hand out 20-30% resalable tax credits like candy to film companies b/c they bring us temporary jobs. Sure it helps w/ some positive press around bringing in jobs and great stories of economic development but the mere fact that the state is suddenly pumping out low budget movies isn't a sure sign of a positive return. Sure some of the crews are local but a lot aren't which means a lot of the payroll expenses incurred in the state (contributing to that 500k min) gets shipped back to these people's home states. We spent something like $140M to get $617M in production value in 2010 and outside of some rented locations, hotels, and food expenses an awful lot of stuff comes in on truck and leaves the same way once things are done.
Given our state's fiscal woes, it's unlikely we can sustain the tax credit's growth rate much further and GA will have to cut the credit back. How many jobs will remain b/c of our scenic Piedmont Park? Personally, I'd love to see Atlanta more often in films but not at the expense of our state's fiscal balance and certainly not as a cheap dime store knock off for New York like they do so often w/ Vancouver or Toronto.

Friends of accused Boston bomber due in court, seek 2015 trial
Three college friends of accused Boston bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev are due in court on Wednesday for a hearing ahead of their trial on charges they helped hide his tracks from the FBI.
The three are charged with removing a laptop and backpack with empty fireworks shells from Tsarnaev's dormitory room, in response to a text message instructing them to do so, three days after the April 15, 2013, attack that killed three people and injured 264.
All three have pleaded not guilty.
Dias Kadyrbayev and Azamat Tazhayakov, both exchange students from Kazakhstan, face obstruction of justice charges and, if convicted, could face 25 years in prison or deportation.
Robel Phillipos, of Cambridge, Massachusetts, has been charged with lying to investigators and could face up to 16 years in prison.
Kadyrbayev and Phillipos in a joint motion filed with prosecutors asked that the trial be scheduled for January 2015, while Tazhayakov asked for quicker proceedings, with a trial to begin in July 2014.

Abbeville police recently met with parish officials and community leaders to discuss five open murder cases in the city. Chief Tony Hardy spoke to members of the Vermilion Parish Police Jury, Abbeville city councilmen, business owners, and members of the NAACP about the cases. Hardy reiterated that his department is actively working all five murders and are working leads in each of them. Hardy also asked those in attendance to provide any tips they may have or find, explaining that all leads--no matter how small they might seem--are helpful to investigators.

Greater Atlanta Christian broke open a tight game with 28 unanswered points in the second half and cruised to a 42-20 victory against Wesleyan. Led by the arm and legs of quarterback Rafe Chapple (four touchdowns) and a balanced running attack, GAC had too many weapons for its rival Norcross private school. The Spartans (7-2, 3-0 in Region 6-AA) clinched a home playoff game and can claim the region with a victory against Lovett next week.
GAC coach Tim Hardy praised the "grit, toughness and execution" of Chapple and the stingy defense that held the Wolves to 53 total yards rushing. Wesleyan tied the score at 14-14 on its first drive of the second half, but Chapple ran for a 7-yard score to start the scoring spree. Micah Abernathy followed that with an 18-yard touchdown jaunt, Chapple lofted a 43-yard touchdown pass to Peter Whiteneck and Corey Stevenson busted in the end zone for 13-yard score for a 42-14 lead with just four minutes remaining. After Chapple's run, the defense forced three three-and-outs.
"We put a nice drive together and stabilized some things defensively and we tackled well on defense," Hardy said. "After their drive, we got the ball back, scored and kind of rolled from there."
Chapple finished the night an efficient 13 of 16 passes for 191 and two passing and two rushing touchdowns. Whenever he was unable to find a receiver, he bought time with his feet or scrambled for nice yardage, finishing with 43 rushing yards. GAC rushed for 151 yards, led by Kyle Scales (53 yards on five carries). Chris Williams led all receivers with 123 yards on seven catches.
Hardy, in his first year at GAC, already is looking forward to next week's showdown at Lovett. "Our goal is to win the region championship," he said. "You've got to win four games to do it and we've won three. It's going to be a region championship kind of game and we're excited about the opportunity next Friday."
After recovering a short opening kickoff at the Spartans' 23-yard line, Wesleyan took a 7-0 lead on a five-yard pass from Will Anderson to Charles Mack.
GAC tied the game midway through the second period on a 36-yard reception by Williams who was wide open down the seam. The Spartans grabbed the lead when they drove 70 yards in just six plays. Chapple hooked up twice with both Williams and Darius Slayton on the drive before sneaking in for the 1-yard touchdown run with 14 seconds left in the half. Williams caught five passes for 95 yards in the half. The Spartans held Wesleyan's offense in the first two quarters to 81 total yards, only 22 rushing.
Wesleyan (4-6, 1-3) scored on the final play of the game, a 9-yard pass from Will Anderson to Christian Stark. The Wolves have qualified for the playoffs but as the fourth seed will have to travel to Calhoun.

I don't know about your workplace, but Christmas cookies, tubs of caramel corn and gift boxes full of sweets usually makes its way into our the office each year at this time. Add-in a number of holiday parties and our calorie count goes through the roof so will your blood sugar if you are diabetic. Nancy Naeve Brown got some advice from one of the registered dieticians at the Avera Heart Hospital.
The good folks at the Avera Heart Hospital want to help ensure our bellies don't jiggle like a bowl full of jelly after this holiday season which is a tough task considering all the goodies that accompany Christmas. If you have diabetes you have to be especially careful.
Registered Dietitian Mary Beth Russell at the Avera Heart Hospital says, "When you have diabetes the best thing they can do for their heart around the holidays and always is controlling their blood sugars because that is the one thing with diabetes that helps them the most."
When conquering the food table, Mary Beth Russell suggests sticking to the protein foods; the meatballs, nuts, move toward the meat and cheese trays, but steer clear of all the carbs.
Mary Beth says, "I think the most important to remind them when they are looking at a huge table full of food is be mindful if you are going to eat, how many calories you may be drinking. Use water as an option for drinking instead of things with a lot of sugar."
Nancy asks, "So what if you were to partake in a holiday beverage?
Mary Beth answers, "Red wine is best, but only 6 oz. You can't save them all up for the weekend."
To avoid the endless grazing at the food table use a plate, the smaller the better.
Mary Beth says, "You get benefits with blood sugars when you exercise. You them for a number of hours afterwards because that where you see the benefits."
Exercise is the best medicine for all of us, for diabetics who plan to indulge, it's a necessity so plan on putting in some extra minutes or miles working it out before you party it up. Remember to try to pass on all the pies, potato chips and pasta salads.
Another suggestion for diabetics bring a dish to the party you know it's a healthy option for you to eat and enjoy.

To get first-year students engaged quickly, a jam-packed Fall Orientation Weekend keeps students busy—on campus and off—from the moment they arrive on Thursday right up until the first class begins on Monday morning. One of the highlights during orientation is when all first-year students participate in a day of service, education, and action in the Central Florida community. Known as SPARC (Service Philanthropy Activism Rollins College), it is the only program of its kind in Florida.
"Fall orientation is about equipping new students with the basic skills and information they need to survive the first week—RCCs makes sure they learn the rest over the next 16 weeks,' said former Assistant Director of Explorations Andrew Hughes.
During Fall Orientation Weekend, students will not only move into their resident halls, eat their first meal using their R-Card and receive their room key, they'll also meet their peer mentors and faculty advisers.
"First-year students spend a lot of time with their RCC peers, faculty and peer mentors during orientation," Hughes said. "Together they explore the campus, take part in community engagement activities and join in fun events such as the first-year talent show and the annual Pancake Flip." By Monday when school begins, these new students already feel deeply anchored in the Rollins community.

Martin Dobson
- Born: 14/02/1948
- Birthplace: Blackburn
- Nationality: English
- Debut: 31/08/1974 v Arsenal (H)
When he moved to Goodison Park in August 1974 for £300,000, midfielder Martin Dobson set a new British transfer record.
Hugely skilful and with the ability to drift forward to create openings and goals out of next-to-nothing, he was an integral part of the Everton set-up between 1974 and 1979.
After five years at Goodison he returned to Burley for £100,000 before taking over as Bury's player-manager in 1984.
He later served brief spells as manager of Northwich Victoria and Bristol Rovers before returning to Burnley to become head of youth development.
"I still look out for Everton's results all the time," he smiled. "I was very fortunate to play for two super teams in Burnley and Everton and very lucky that the majority of my playing career was with those two clubs."

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - The South Dakota Highway Patrol has not been able to determine the cause of the crash last February that claimed the lives of four members of the Vollmer family of Sioux Falls.
Patrol Captain Kevin Joffer says investigators have ruled out medical or mechanical problems and drugs and alcohol.
Joffer says there's no evidence of adverse weather or road conditions. He says they also looked into cell phone records. Both Mr. and Mrs. Vollmer had cell phones and records show no indication that there was any use of the phones or texting that took place before the crash.
Joffer says the speed of the Vollmer vehicle prior to the crash is estimated at between 75 and 78 miles an hour.
The crash claimed the lives of Jim, Julie, Alyssa and Caleb Vollmer. A surviving daughter, Brittany, was at college in Orange City, Iowa, at the time of the crash.
Joffer says the Vollmers were returning to Sioux Falls from Salem after a basketball tournament. They were traveling in the passing lane when the vehicle drifted off the road and hit a guard rail. The vehicle spun around and went airborne crashing into a ravine

Reporting of research data from the Dartmouth Atlas Project takes several forms. We have produced twenty book-length editions of The Dartmouth Atlas of Health Care; several brief reports covering specific topics and/or clinical subject areas; and a number of issue briefs on relevant health policy topics. Atlas investigators also have an extensive bibliography of scientific articles published in peer-reviewed journals. Please use the links on the right to locate our publications.
Recently released: The Dartmouth Atlas of Children's Health Care in Northern New England. The Dartmouth Atlas has produced the first report showing the patterns of care received by nearly the entire population of infants and children in Northern New England for ambulatory physician services, hospitalization, common surgery, imaging, and outpatient prescription fills. The findings from this report show marked variation in care across the region; while there are many examples of excellent care, the findings raise troubling questions about whether the medical practice patterns reflect the care that infants and children need and that their families want.
The Dartmouth Atlas of Medicare Prescription Drug Use. In its first look at prescription drug use, released October 15, 2013, the Dartmouth Atlas Project shows that the use of both effective and risky drug therapies by Medicare patients varies widely across U.S. regions, offering further evidence that location is a key determinant in the quality and cost of the medical care that patients receive. The report also finds that the health status of a region's Medicare population accounts for less than a third of the variation in total prescription drug use, and that higher spending is not related to higher use of proven drug therapies. The study raises questions about whether regional practice culture explains differences in the quality and quantity of prescription drug use.
Trends in Cancer Care Near the End of Life: A Dartmouth Atlas of Health Care Brief. This brief, posted September 4, 2013, finds that the care that elderly patients with cancer receive does not always reflect their own preferences, but the prevailing styles of treatment in the regions and health care systems where they happen to receive cancer treatment. Although the use of hospice care for Medicare patients with advanced cancer is increasing, many patients do not receive hospice care until they are literally on their deathbeds; and, despite increases in the use of hospice care, more patients were treated in intensive care units in their last month of life in 2010 than in the period from 2003 to 2007.
Tracking Improvement in the Care of Chronically Ill Patients: A Dartmouth Atlas Brief on Medicare Beneficiaries Near the End of Life. This brief, posted June 12, 2013, demonstrates that improvements in care have occurred between 2007 and 2010 for chronically ill Medicare patients in their last six months of life. However, the pace of change varied across regions and hospitals, with some experiencing rapid change while other health systems showed little improvement.

University Hospital now offers robot-assisted prostatectomy
SYRACUSE, N.Y. – University Hospital of SUNY Upstate Medical University now offers robot-assisted prostatectomy (RAP) with the daVinci surgical system.
In July University Hospital became the first Syracuse area hospital to offer the minimally invasive surgery for prostate cancer that uses the latest advance in robotics and computer technology. The procedure has been shown to improve outcomes following prostate surgery, particularly early recovery and proven to be as effective as traditional surgery in removing prostate cancer.
Urologist Gabriel Haas, M.D., professor and chair of the Department of Urology at University Hospital, heads the hospital's robotic surgical team. According to Haas, robot-assisted prostatectomy offers the patient and the surgical team several advantages.
"Robot-assisted prostatectomy is less invasive for the patient and is more precise in removing prostate cancer than traditional surgery, resulting in fewer complications, less pain and blood loss, as well as shorter hospital stays and recovery time," he said. "The da Vinci cameras give our surgical team a larger-than-life, three dimensional view of the surgical field, helping us to better maneuver around the many structures and nerves that surround the prostate. This results in an increased chance of the patient regaining erectile function and continence after surgery. The robotic arms can make precise and flexible surgical moves that a human hand is incapable of making."
During RAP, the surgeon makes several one-quarter to one-half inch incisions in the patient's abdomen, compared to a single five-to-six inch incision for traditional surgery. A lighted telescope (laparoscope) is then inserted through one of the incisions. Surgical instruments held by da Vinci's robotic arms are inserted into the other incisions. The surgeon at a console controls da Vinci's robotic arms and surgical instruments. The robotic arms offer the surgeon a full range of motion and the ability to rotate instruments more than 360 degrees through tiny incisions, extending the surgeon's ability to repetitively perform technically precise maneuvers such as endoscopic suturing and dissection.
The surgeon then controls the robotic arms to remove the prostate, nearby lymph nodes, seminal vesicles and adjacent tissue through the small incisions and close the incisions with a few stitches.
RAP is available to prostate cancer patients whose cancer is confined to the prostate and who are in good health. Most insurance carriers cover the cost of the operation.
For more information, call University Hospital's Health Connections at 315-464-8668.

The state has finished presenting its evidence against Robert Dunn.
Robert Dunn is accused of shooting and killing his estranged wife in front of small children inside a Cape Coral daycare center nearly five years ago.
Today the state presented its physical evidence linking Dunn to the crime: a gun bought from a Cape Coral pawn shop days before the shooting and bullets purchased from Walmart.
The state also showed letters Dunn had on his computer desk from an attorney about his child support.
This is evidence that prosecutors say supports the motive that Dunn was so upset about his divorce and custody dispute with his estranged wife that he killed her.
The defense argued that the court should acquit Dunn, claiming the state had not proved its case with enough evidence, but the judge refused to acquit.
The defense will begin its evidence tonight.
Robert Dunn faces first-degree murder, armed burglary, and child abuse charges.
He faces the death penalty if convicted.

Hi folks,
As you probably know, Twitter uses Hashtags to group tweets together and if you look for a particular hashtag you can see all/many tweets that have used this hashtag.
Facebook has now introduced these as well. Therefore, we are suggesting some hashtags that you can use on twitter and facebook so that we can add to the discussion and instantaneous analysis. Also, if somebody cannot get to the meeting or if somebody cannot make a particular talk, then these hashtags can be useful in gathering the information together for the meeting.
So, please, if you are a twitter or FaceBook user, use these hashtags so that we can follow the conference.
As for policy on instantaneous reporting of the meeting on social media, we have used this policy in the past (it is enforced only by asking attendees to respect the wishes of the presenters, not by employing any kind of security guards):
This PDF contains the suggested hashtags. Comment below if you think of something to add. Hashtag PDF
UPDATE: Aylwyn Scally (@aylwyn_scally) tells me that Google+ also uses hashtags.
