ABSTRACTAnalogous to checklists of recommendations such as the CONSORT statement (for randomized trials), or the QUORUM statement (for systematic reviews), which are designed to ensure the quality of reports in the medical literature, a checklist of recommendations for authors is being presented by the Journal of Medical Internet Research (JMIR) in an effort to ensure complete descriptions of Web-based surveys. Papers on Web-based surveys reported according to the CHERRIES statement will give readers a better understanding of the sample (self-)selection and its possible differences from a "representative" sample. It is hoped that author adherence to the checklist will increase the usefulness of such reports.
(J Med Internet Res 2004;6(3):e34)
The Internet is increasingly used for online surveys and Web-based research. In this issue of the Journal of Medical Internet Research we publish two methodological studies exploring the characteristics of Web-based surveys compared to mail-based surveys [1,2]. In previous issues we have published Web-based research such as a survey among physicians conducted on a Web site [3].
As explained in an accompanying editorial [4] as well as in a previous review [5], such surveys can be subject to considerable bias. In particular, bias can result from 1) the non-representative nature of the Internet population and 2) the self-selection of participants (volunteer effect). Often online surveys have a very low response rate (if the number of visitors is used as denominator). Thus, considerable debate ensues about the validity of online surveys. The editor and peer reviewers of this journal are frequently faced with the question of whether to accept for publication studies reporting results from Web surveys (or email surveys). There is no easy answer to this question. Often it "just depends". It depends on the reasons for the survey in the first place, its execution, and the authors' conclusions. Conclusions drawn from a convenience sample are limited and need to be qualified in the discussion section of a paper. On the other hand, we will not, as many other journals do, routinely reject reports of Web surveys, even surveys with very small response rates, which are typical of electronic surveys, but decide on a case-by-case basis whether the conclusions drawn from a Web survey are valid and useful for readers. Web surveys may be of some use in generating hypotheses which need to be confirmed in a more controlled environment; or they may be used to pilot test a questionnaire or to conduct a Web-based experiment. Statistical methods such as propensity scores may be used to adjust results [4]. Again, it all depends on why and how the survey was done.
Every biased sample is an unbiased sample of another target population, and it is sometimes just a question of defining for which subset of a population the conclusions drawn are assumed to be valid. For example, the polling results on the CNN Web site are certainly highly biased and not representative for the US population. But it is legitimate to assume that they are "representative" for visitors to the CNN Web site who choose to participate in the online survey.
This illustrates the critical importance of carefully describing how and in what context the survey was done, and how the sample, which chose to reply, is constituted and might differ from a representative population-based sample. For example, it is very important to describe the content and nature of the Web site where the survey was posted in order to get an idea of the people who filled in the questionnaire (ie, to characterize the population of respondents). A survey on an anti-vaccination Web site run by concerned parents will have a different visitor structure than, for example, a vaccination clinic site. It is also important to describe in sufficient detail exactly how the questionnaire was administered. For example, was it mandatory that every visitor who wanted to enter the Web site fill it in, or were any other incentives offered? A mandatory survey is likely to reduce a volunteer bias.
Analogous to checklists of recommendations such as the CONSORT statement (for randomized trials), or the QUORUM statement (for systematic reviews), which are designed to ensure the quality of reports in the medical literature, a checklist of recommendations for authors is being presented by JMIR in an effort to ensure complete descriptions of e-survey methodology. Papers reported according to the CHERRIES statement will give peer reviewers and readers a better understanding of the sample selection and its possible differences from a "representative" sample.
The CHERRIES Checklist
We define an e-survey as an electronic questionnaire administered on the Internet or an Intranet. Although many of the CHERRIES items are also valid for surveys administered via e-mail, the checklist focuses on Web-based surveys.
While most items on the checklist are self-explanatory, a few comments about the "response rate" are in order. In traditional surveys investigators usually report a response rate (number of people presented with a questionnaire divided by the number of people who completed the questionnaire) to allow some estimation of the degree of representativeness and bias. Surveys with response rates lower than 70% or so (an arbitrary cut-off point!) are usually viewed with skepticism.
In online surveys, there is no single response rate. Rather, there are multiple potential methods for calculating a response rate, depending on what are chosen as the numerator and denominator. As there is no standard methodology, we suggest avoiding the term "response rate" and have defined how, at least in this journal, response metrics such as, what we call, the view rate, participation rate and completion rate should be calculated.
A common concern for online surveys is that a single user fills in the same questionnaire multiple times. Some users like to go back to the survey and experiment with the results of their modified entries. Multiple methods are available to prevent this or at least to minimize the chance of this happening (eg, cookies or log-file/IP address analysis).
Investigators should also state whether the completion or internal consistency of certain (or all) items was enforced using Javascript (ie, displaying an alert before the questionnaire can be submitted) or server-side techniques (ie, after submission displaying the questionnaire and highlighting mandatory but unanswered items or items answered inconsistently).
The hope is that the CHERRIES checklist provides a useful starting point for investigators reporting results of Web surveys. The editor and peer reviewers of this journal ask authors to ensure that they report the methodology fully and according to the CHERRIES checklist before submitting manuscripts.

Vandoren Baritone Saxophone ReedsVan Doren Traditional series baritone sax reeds are characterized by a thin reed tip. The result is a quality of pure sound that is balanced by a solid vertical column. A French-style file cut further distinguishes these reeds. They are among the most popular in the world and are great for all-around use, and are popular with classical and jazz musicians, and with students and professionals alike.Renowned for their quality and consistency, this is the standard bearer for saxophone reeds the world over. They are affordable, reliable, and very often the go-to reed for everyone from students to professionals.
Order today with the no-risk assurance of our Total Satisfaction and Low Price Guarantees!
I play baritone sax for the wind ensemble there. I was recommended these reeds a few years ago, and they were diffidently a couple steps up from what I was using. After I played on these reeds, I just wanted to dance, since they made beautiful music. I have made such beautiful music with these reeds, the cane and quality cut just shows in the amount of heads that turn when you play it.
I've been playing sax throughout my musical career, a year on alto, 2 years on just tenor, and 2 1/2 years alternating tenor and bari, and I've used Vandoren Classic reeds for the majority of that time. They give me a smooth dark tone, and allow me to outplay the sousaphones in my marching band. They last incredibly long, and can withstand a blowhard like me. I would recommend them to anyone who wants to sound better and feel better while playing their sax.
Yeah they are so awesome. My band director Mr. Bobby Richardson gets them for me and i just got a new reed and I won't switch it out till the end of May, because they last so long. Shout out to The Sabine High School Cardinal Marching Band of Texas.
I have been using these reeds for years and they have taken me through college. They are very easy to break in and last a long time! The tone quality is perfect and never to airy like many other bari reeds. Great for classical playing. It is rare that you will get a reed that doesn't work well.
These reeds are amazingly flexible for any kind of playing. I use the Vandoren Traditional on nearly all instruments I play (all saxes, Bb and bass clarinet), and they contribute a great, full-bodied tone on all of them. On bari specifically, these are perfect for concert band and classical playing; they allow for blending in to a concert band and any of its instrument groups very well, producing a tone that can be manipulated easily to blend in with any instrument, but is still vibrant and whole. The reeds are highly consistent, almost always allowing for a full dynamic range and the full instrumental range as well, even far in to the altissimo register. The reeds also last an unbelievable length of time before giving out, and are usable even with (though definitely hampered by) minor chips or cracks in the reed. I have found that since Vandoren's introduction of the humidity controlled 'flo-pack', opening the individual packets of reeds several days before playing leads to a longer reed life. I suggest this reed to any and all musicians as the best possible choice for the baritone saxophone.

Hopetoun Tea Rooms; Melbourne CBD.
Hopetoun Tea Rooms
Block Arcade
282 Collins Street
Melbourne CBD
fresh baked scones, double cream & jam // club sandwich // pinwheels
Yes, this is the tea room in the Block Arcade that has a dazzling array of cakes on display. And the spectacular thing about it is, based on what we had, it tastes every bit as good as it looks. We've all fallen for those pristine glistening treats on display, only to discover, we should have left the feasting to our eyes alone.
One of the teas we had - the Fiji - green tea with papaya & wild pineapple was absolutely gorgeous.
The scones, forever the first thing I hone in on, were delightfully fluffy and light.
Between the sandwiches, I preferred the chunkier club with tender chicken, creamy avo, fruit chutney between toasted wholemeal which gave a lovely crunch with each bite, over the softer daintier pinwheels made up of entwined slices of wholemeal & white bread.
Now we get to the good stuff. While the savouries & scones were quite good, each one of those cakes were begging to be ordered & eaten. We settled on the gluten free pavlova (piled with pineapple, blueberry, kiwis, strawberry & strewn passionfruit, a tumble of soft & crisp meringue and sweet fluffy cream) and that fluffy ricotta blueberry cake. The sticky date pudding from the kitchen, was wonderfully rich with thick caramel & vanilla ice cream.
Now the perpetual queues outside the tea room make sense. I note that if you're keen on the high teas, they'll need 48 hours notice.

WOOD COUNTY, OH (Toledo News Now) - A new Rasmussen poll shows President Barack Obama and presidential candidate Mitt Romney in a dead tie in Ohio. Both candidates showed to have 48 percent of the votes.
Wood County is one of six counties in ohio that is considered a swing county. In 2004, Wood County voters cast their ballot for President Bush. In 2008, they did for President Obama.
"You can go back to, I think it's JFK, where we've picked the winner so it goes much farther than that. We're a county that's roughly evenly split between democrats and republicans and so we really have to work hard to carry it for our county," said Mike Zickar, Chairman of the Wood County Democratic Party.
Knowing Wood County is a swing county means both sides are working equally as hard.
"I think in 2008 you had a historic election. I think that obviously we're a swing county, since 1960 we've predicted the winner every time but once, so we know that we've got to fight and a battle, we've been working on it, been working on it in the grass roots for a long time and we think we have the advantage," said Matthew Reger, Chairman of the Wood County Republican Party.
The Wood County Democratic Party believes voters will re-elect President Obama because of what he has done for the area.
"Voters in Wood County, you don't have to look far, you don't have to talk to too many people down the street to realize that his policies really helped this county. unemployment would be much higher is he wouldn't have done the auto bailout, Chrysler plant on 795 in Perrysburg Township might be shuttered, and I think the estimate is 1200 jobs in wood county were saved," said Zickar.
Reger said Romney will bring the change that is needed.
"He's going to work on the job situation, the budget deficit, I mean I think that really resonates with people when he says we've got a five trillion dollar addition to our debt the last four years. The message that Governor Romney has is a great message saying hey we're looking to the future and we need to solve these problems," said Reger.
The Rasmussen report shows two percent of voters in Ohio plan to vote for a different candidate and three percent as undecided.

Kayaking Past Seal Pups Out of King Harbor in Redondo Beach, CA
Baby seal pups bob playfully around your paddles as you navigate your kayak past the live feed barge, piled high with the pups' parents soaking up the sun, and out of King Harbor Marina. Heading beyond the break and into the waves of Redondo Beach's ocean can be a bit tense, but once you get the feel for the sea's gentle sweep, the going is easy. If the water is calm, it is worth the several-mile paddle to the hidden gem that is the Palos Verdes Cove. If not, just rolling with the tides, watching the dolphins, and checking out the colorful Redondo Beach Esplanade from the ocean is just as satisfying.

A Chipmaker Investors Should Stay Away From
Anh is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
In the stock market, investors should be aware of any large price swings. We all know that it would be very irrational for a business, which was worth $1 yesterday, to be worth only 50 cents or $2 today. We should not be influenced by it. Instead, we should consider it as an opportunity and take full advantage.
What happened?
Chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices (NYSE: AMD) plunged nearly 14.4% to $2.74 per share yesterday. Investors showed their pessimism toward the company after it said that sales in the latest quarter were far below its forecast. Sales were expected to decrease by 10% from the previous quarter, much worse than an earlier prediction of 1%, plus or minus 3%. AMD declared that the demand for its chips is weaker than expected in all of the company's product lines. In addition, because of $100 million inventory write-down, third quarter gross margin would be around 31%, much less than the previous expectation of 44%.
Indeed, 2012 was a awful year for the company and its shareholders. Since March 2012, its stock price kept losing value, from $8.25 to $2.74, a loss of 66.8%.
More bad news coming
The recent rumor is that AMD will be likely to announce a huge job reduction plan next week. 20-30% of its employees (2300-3500 jobs) might be out, including human resources in key areas such as engineering and sales.
As AMD's financial condition for recent quarter was weaker than expected, S&P stated that it expected the company's leverage ratio to rise above the threshold for the rating of 3x, and the cash position might deteriorate. As a result, S&P placed its "BB-"corporate rating on watch with negative implications. It means the AMD's debt rating might be cut in the near future if their financial performance doesn't improve.
Indeed, AMD carries a lot of debt on its balance sheet. As of June 2012, its stockholder's equity was only $1.12 billion in total assets of $5 billion. It has nearly $1.6 billion in cash, but more than $2 billion in total capital leases.
Gloomy PC industry
As more people switch to tablets and smartphones, the global PC industry took a decline in demand. According to IDC, the sales of PCs in July-September were 87.8 million, 8.6% lower than the same period last year.
Industry peers
With gloomy PC industry outlook, four main semiconductor suppliers, Intel (NASDAQ: INTC), Broadcom (NASDAQ: BRCM), NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) and AMD took an indirect hit on their stock prices.
From the chart, we can see that AMD's stock experienced the worst decline since April 2012. In a one-year period, it plunged 45% whereas Intel's stock declined only 8.3%.
Indeed, AMD's operating performance has been the worst among the four.
What is worse? AMD is producing losses, whereas Intel, Broadcom and NVIDA all have positive operating margin and net margin. Furthermore, AMD is relying on too much debt compared to its peers. Its Debt/Equity (96%) is more than 6 times of Intel (15%) and nearly 100 times of NVDA (1%).
My Foolish take
AMD is facing a lot of challenges, not only weak overall industry environment, but also the operating performance itself. Personally, I would rather stay away from AMD, as I haven't seen any positive signs of improvement in either micro or macro level.
Know What You Own
Intel's name is synonymous with the semiconductor, but savvy investors like yourself should constantly question whether there is a profit opportunity left from the stock.

At the end of June this year a new festival was born in Croatia and, after a highly successful first innings, the Echo team have confirmed that preparations for next year are well under way...
Echo was born from an ambitious group of friends that wanted to bring together different cliques and crews on a beautiful beach for one rather epic holiday. Whilst their musical integrity couldn't be questioned there was always going to be challenges to overcome when entering a crowded, complicated and highly competitive market place. But the Echo team really pulled it off and there was no sign that this was their first year. From start to finish, from DJs to party goers, everyone was loving it.
One of the things that really made Echo was the size: with less than 1000 English festival goers there, it was a very relaxed atmosphere. It had to be: with temperatures topping 40'c on a couple of the days thanks to a freak heatwave, there was no excess energy to deal with stress. Luckily throughout the whole event there was no bravado, no agrro and no drama. Plus due to the small number of people and the fact that those who made it out were often tied in with the DJs or organisers, most people knew each other through less than two degrees of separation and those that didn't were swiftly initiated. After years of going to festivals and events, I've never known a friendlier crowd.
On top of this all of the DJs were on excellent form all weekend, from the deep house and techno at the beach bar to the residents up in the woods and the ravers down on the beach, it was all going off. Personal favourites include Pariah's marathon sesh featuring the Pariah-ettes (above!), Zero T, Bailey and Ant TC1 as well as Midland and The Well Rounded takeover. We hosted a 5 hour slot on the Friday night down on the beach featuring Sully, Pedestrian, Pusherman and Alors Cors and had a whale of a time. Special shouts to all the artists, they smashed it.
Wind up ya batty!

The timing for Echo was definitely right. Kicking off at the end of June, it was the first real taste of both summer and festivals for most people so there was a lot of pent-up party waiting to explode. Especially with a lot of people having literally just completed their exams and dissertations. After weeks and weeks of grey skies, exams, dull work and £4.00 pints, the Echo experience is a sure fire winner. Those who went have also discovered the bonus of going away at the start of summer, namely that you get a killer tan and stay well ahead of the game for the rest of the season! Bonus.
Of course there were a few issues that will have to be addressed. Being on such a small site led to soundclash in certain points but it was never an issue for those in front of the speakers. The campsite also seemed to be initially bemused by the idea of camping: its primary business being in static caravans and chalets. As with most of Croatia the ground is not very hospitable to pitching tents. However, after a brain wave, pallets were produced and people slept on an improvised wooden floor which I am told was very comfortable and definitely preferable to the rocks.
But to be fair that was pretty much the worst of it (Oh and they didn't let you go Bungee Jumping if you were having problems walking). For a first year festival, if those are your only real problems then it's safe to say that you got away with it. It's also a testament to the people who came and the spirit of the festival: there were no fights, no real arrests (Henry!) and no beef, just good vibrations. Everybody we've spoken to regarding Echo and all the DJs we chatted to out there had a great time and even before the weekend was out the organisers had DJs, managers and punters all asking them about next year.

timeonice.com Script Notes. Part II.
I have added some features to the even strength statistic scripts at timeonice.com:
- Appending &hv=1 will only report data from road games, &hv=-1 returns home game data.
- Appending &shawn=22 will only report events that occurred when the player wearing #22 was on the ice. By way of example http://timeonice.com/playershots0910.php?team=EDM&first=20001&last=21230&shawn=18 will output the results of every Oiler player during the time they were on the ice with Ethan Moreau at even strength during the 09/10 season.
- Appending &skip=20336 20636 20874 21173 will cause these games to be omitted from the results. In this case all of the EDM vs PHX games would be skipped.
If you can't spot the pattern there, well you're just not trying.

Congress has launched a partial government shutdown Oct. 1,
on the heels of a dispute over President Barack Obama's health care law, which
stalled a temporary funding bill.
The partial shutdown will force about 800,000 federal
workers off the job and suspend most non-essential federal programs and
The shutdown will close national parks, museums along the
Washington Mall and the U.S. Capitol visitors center. Those classified as
essential government employees, which includes air traffic controllers, Border Patrol
agents and most food inspectors, will continue to work. President Obama's
health care law was unaffected. Enrollment is open for millions of people who
are shopping for medical insurance.
West Virginia's Congressional delegation released statements
about the partial shutdown.
U.S. Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va., said he could not think
of a time when lawmakers have acted so recklessly.
"Overseeing the operations of our federal government is a
profoundly serious responsibility, entrusted to Congress by the American
people," Rockefeller said in a statement. "And today, a very vocal few are
abdicating that moral and Constitutional responsibility through a vicious
campaign to deny health care coverage to millions of Americans.
"I've served in the United States Senate long enough to know
that even in times of deep disagreement, it's wrong to hold one issue hostage
to another."
U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., said he continues to have
concerns with the implementation of the Affordable Care Act.
"That being said, I do not believe that this issue should be
used to shut down the government, and I will not vote to shut down the
government," Manchin said in a statement. "We need to work together as
Americans to solve these problems so we can get our economy back on track and
create American jobs."
Rep. Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va., said she voted for a
continuing resolution that would have averted a government shutdown, while at
the same time ending the special health insurance subsidy provided to Members
of Congress.
"I am deeply disappointed that Sept. 30 has come and gone
without passage of a continuing resolution to keep the federal government open,"
Capito said in a statement. "Congress is supposed to be about fixing problems
and negotiating a better end.
"Unfortunately, this is entirely the gridlock that West
Virginians have come to resent in Washington."
Rep. David McKinley, R-W.Va., said in a statement "it is
time for the sweetheart deals for the politically privileged to end."
"Tonight the Senate tabled a House amendment that would have
required Members of Congress, congressional staff and political appointees to
enroll in the Obamacare exchanges without a special subsidy for coverage,"
McKinley said in a statement. "Either Obamacare is good for everyone or no one."

Your "pansy" is a double amaryllis photo.
I thought, I had no idea pansies were so gorgeous. That would explain it.
Thank you for this round-up! I've been meaning to look into this since we're planning a winter wedding next year, but you've done the work for me.
That's no more a pansy than I am.

Downtown Fort Myers has a new look. What used to be a parking lot is now the site for a new waterfront. And the redevelopments going on downtown could lead to a whole new atmosphere.
As the city starts a new chapter, hundreds cheered as the city finally unveiled the new Fort Myers river basin - a $5.3-million project that's been in the works since March.
"We've been peaking through the fences and watching it happen," said resident Jean Seehaver.
From just last year, she has seen this area transform from a parking lot to what now looks like pristine waterfront right downtown - complete with its own sound system.
"It's so exciting to replace an ugly parking lot with a beautiful water feature it has the fountains," Seehaver said.
The basins serving an important function - filtering waste water before it goes into the Caloosahatchee.
Phase one of the downtown riverfront development project was paid for by downtown tax dollars, federal grants and money left over from the streetscape program.
With phase two, the plan is to bring in new business.
"It proves we are moving fwd and the city is investing the money and infrastructure to get biz attracted downtown on the riverfront," said Nils Richter, part owner of Los Cabos Cantina.
He says he's already noticing downtown has become a bigger attraction in recent months.
"We actually have wait times which was unheard of downtown," he said.
Events, Richter said, like Art Walk that draw people downtown with the eventual hope that this work of art will do some attracting as well.

What if a Georgia high school led the nation in major-college football recruits and none of them signed with UGA or Georgia Tech?
This could very well happen at Stephenson High School.
The Stone Mountain projects to have between 14-16 seniors sign D1 football scholarships in February. A dozen Stephenson stars have already pledged to colleges, including seven to SEC schools. But none to UGA. And none to Georgia Tech either.
With so much talent at a Georgia high school and none of it headed to UGA or Georgia Tech, it's only natural to ask: What's going on?
"We don't steer our kids one way or the other to any schools," said Stephenson's Ron Gartrell, one of the state's most well-respected football coaches. "Our coaches work hard to give the kids plenty of options, and then each young man makes whatever decision is best for him and his family."
That's the simple answer, but not enough to satisfy some UGA and Georgia Tech fans. They've come up with all kinds of conspiracy theories that would make JFK jealous on why the Stephenson pipeline does not exist this year.
We'll start with UGA.
"Somebody came to me and mentioned that there may be some issues between Mark Richt and myself," Gartrell said. "I can set the record straight there. Coach Richt and I are very good friends. My son played at Georgia. I've been a Georgia fan just about all my life. I grew up 30 miles east of Athens.
"We try to stress to our kids 'You need to go through the recruiting process. Even that school that you may dream about going to at an early age, it may not be the school you want to go after you make your visits.' My thing is that I'm against early commitments and that kind of thing because you have kids committing at 16 years old — and they don't even have driver's licenses yet. We've got all these guys committed early, and I'm against it unless the NCAA creates an early signing period, because what is happening is that colleges are putting a lot of pressure on these kids to commit early. Now I don't know if Georgia is doing that, and that might be why they are not getting as many kids as they probably should. Georgia does a great job of evaluating guys and when they make an offer, it's a serious offer. They stand by it.
"You've got some other people making offers and after they make an offer, they will come back and say to a linebacker, 'OK, we've offered you but we've offered four total. We're only going to take two, and one of them has already committed to us. So if you really want to come to our place, you've got to commit before this other guy.' It's a game that colleges play with these kids that I'm not a fan of. Recruiters know I don't like them playing those kinds of games with my kids. When you offer them, you need to let them know up front if you have someone else in mind. Recruiting is what it is. It makes or breaks colleges coaches, lots of them moving around [to different jobs] … so who knows?"
Back to UGA: The assistant in charge of recruiting Stephenson is none other than Rodney Garner, Georgia's recruiting coordinator. The Bulldogs extended scholarship offers to two Stephenson players. One was defensive tackle Jafar Mann, who said this after committing to the Florida Gators:
"Georgia, I feel like Georgia waited too late. They offered me two weeks after Florida, so I didn't feel like they were as interested. Tech actually offered me before Florida, but I wanted to get out of Georgia. They're both good teams but I really wanted to go out of state."
The other UGA target at Stephenson was linebacker Raphael Kirby, who committed to Miami. Kirby said UGA was in his initial Top 5 but dropped because "they didn't recruit me as hard as other schools."
The Stephenson player that UGA probably had the best chance at landing was defensive end Jarontay Jones, who is considered by some to be the team's No. 1 prospect. Jones was a lifelong Georgia fan and — along with Mann — had been attending UGA football camps since he was a ninth-grader. Jones said UGA showed some interest but wanted him to attend camp again before discussing a possible offer. "At that time, I had 28 offers," Jones said. "No disrespect to Georgia, but I had too many good options by then. I wanted to use my time getting to know the coaches better and visiting the colleges where I knew I had offers."
What about Georgia Tech? Stephenson hasn't had any of its players sign with Georgia Tech since Reggie Ball played QB for the Yellow Jackets. There's speculation that a rift was created between Stephenson and Tech after the rocky finish to Ball's college career. Reggie's father is a longtime Stephenson assistant.
Gartrell addressed that, too. "Reggie played for Chan Gailey. Chan is now gone and my relationship with Chan was never disturbed. What kids go through after they leave us a lot of times don't have anything to do with us. If Reggie or another kid has issues at any college, those are issues that they need to work out. I can't go into a college coach's office and say 'I don't like the way you're treating this kid.' No, he's not mine anymore. I never had any problems with Georgia Tech. I think Reggie's situation at Georgia Tech was that he didn't walk to talk to the media and I think that disturbed some people. Reggie has ironed all that out now.
"When [current Tech coach] Paul Johnson was at Georgia Southern, in our first year at Stephenson we took our kids to his camp at Georgia Southern. We don't have any problems with Paul Johnson. I don't know him that well. I don't know why our kids don't go to Georgia Tech. We've got a lot of kids with really, really good grades this year. I would've thought Georgia Tech would've been after more of them. I don't if it should be 'Are we upset with Georgia Tech?' Maybe it should be 'Is Georgia Tech upset with us?'"
Tech offered three Stephenson seniors: Mann, Jones and tailback Mike Davis (signed with Florida), the younger brother of former Clemson tailback James Davis. The younger Davis said, "Georgia Tech came at all of us very hard. I went over there a couple of times to visit and really liked it. I just wanted go off somewhere for college."
Back to our question: What if a Georgia high school led the nation in major-college football recruits and none of them signed with UGA or Georgia Tech? No doubt, it's a little unusual but it's not the end of the world. No one is saying that. The state of Georgia is plentiful with football talent, producing nearly 200 D1 recruits on an annual basis, giving UGA and Georgia Tech more than enough to consider. And you can bet that both UGA and Georgia Tech will be back at Stephenson recruiting again very soon. Who knows? None of the seniors have signed the dotted line yet. Anything can happen in recruiting. Also, Stephenson's 2013 class looks promising, as the DeKalb school will likely continue to be a hotbed for college football prospects for many, many years to come.

1st! Welcome to Gator Country Jafar and Mikey!!! FWIW Dawg fans, quit with the Charlie Weis jokes because he looks like a starving supermodel compared to the recent photos I've seen of Rodney Garner. I'm just saying …

February is a long way away. I think CMR can flip Jafar and/or Jarontay before then. We've got to at least split two the first two games. That's our whole season. If we don't, this year's recruiting is a complete wash. I'm thinking 2-0, all the top dogs will want to flip to the Dawgs and it's Dream Team II baby

"It is what it is". What if it happens? Well it just happens. Not really a story IMO… and BTW, the school is always bigger than the recruit. I hate when ppl make it seem like the school deserves all types of criticism when a kid decides to go elsewhere. No one play or even a group of players from one school is bigger than the university/institute.
August 3rd, 2011
6:13 am
Best of luck to the Stephenson kids. I wish they were more patient with the Dawgs, and didn't commit so early to an OOS school. Our staff has a process that works, and will not rush into offers.
August 3rd, 2011
6:27 am
Well best wishes. Best wishes to Mark Richt in his next job. The problem is Rodney Garner. Georgia is usually slow to the dance And off on the evaluation when they do offer.
August 3rd, 2011
6:27 am
It appears that three of these kids had the test scores and grades, or the potential to achieve the test scores, required to qualify at TECH. That is probably the real story here and should be part of the article if you want a thorough look at this situation. Was that a question you asked Carvell?
August 3rd, 2011
6:34 am
Georgia has been basically kicked out of Stevenson High recruiting since they wrongly kicked Michael Grant off the team 8 years ago. BIGGEST mistake in the Mark Richt tenure.

Jafar Mann's comments must be read a few times. Tough to make sense out of what he wants to convey. But he is just a kid and will learn. Good luck at UF.

Some kids want to go out of state, to play ftballl and get an education. I could be wrong but if you grew up in a state and you feel the best way for you to make it is to leave the state why not do it. Come on ppl you don't have to amend your home state university.

I understand why players don't want to play for UGA. GA Tech isn't an option for every player but if a player has the academic skill set then GA Tech could be a great choice.
UGA: losing record, multiple discipline issues, players academically ineligible, multiple arrest, Coach Staff change on the horizon, etc… Why would any parent in their right mind send a player to UGA at this time?
August 3rd, 2011
7:13 am
@ Dashfan. Michael Grant never was allowed to enroll at Georgia, so Mark Richt called Houston Nutt for him. But he was never kicked off of the team. And UGA signed a DT from Stephenson last year.

Good article. We appreciaate your reporting. However, omething is wrong some where. The two most influencial people in the life of the recruit as to where a recruit will attend are the parents and the high school coach. People all over the state complain about Coach Richt. Yet I see no support for the UGA program at the AJC and only sporatic support for the coaches. I want to say is there no loyalty from the AJC and from the High School coaches to the state in which you live. Coach Richt may not be perfect, but I would much rather he would coach my son rather than the likes of Spurrier, Saban and the other SEC coaches.

Please help me understand why all of these "Black Athletes" continue to walk into this white college trap? If these athletes are serious about getting an education, why not attend an institution that is serious about educating them (Howard University, FAMU, Morehouse, Hampton, etc)? Stop going to these Div. 1 colleges that are going to exploit you for financial gains & wins. Lord, PLEASE let my people go!!
August 3rd, 2011

I would only let my son play for Richt if I didn't want to have to bother with having to go to the SEC championship game or a quality bowl game
August 3rd, 2011
7:34 am
Doesn't sound like a conspiracy to me. If you look at the recruiting web sites, you will find the Alabama schools, along with Notre Dame, LSU and USC have offered almost everyone in sight. I guess if you throw enough offers out, you should be able to land a bunch of good athletes.
If my job depended on enticing a bunch of 16 year old kids that I was recruiting them "really hard" while the in-state schools are taking their time to evaluate the talent pool along with assessing their own needs, I might be tempted to recruit everyone in sight to protect my $3-4 million a year salary.
I think that this is an issue for the NCAA to set rules around the process. God knows, they have a rule for everything else. I am sorta surprised that they don't have a rule for this as well.
Of course, it's the NCAA and they are much more concerned with tattos and jersey sales (ok if they make a bunch of money selling them but you can't). What a joke of an institution.
August 3rd, 2011
7:41 am
I am not worried about UGA recruiting. Some of the kids in this article stated that they wanted to go out of state and some were dazzled by the "bright lights and big city" pitches from OOS recruiters. So what. There are plenty of good athletes to go around and who knows if these kids will change their minds before signing day. And, further more, who knows if they are as good as the AJC and the recruiting web sites say they are anyway. A lot can happen to a kid from 16 to 23.
August 3rd, 2011
7:43 am
Wally… you are correct……..Saban has the rep as a great coach and has done a good job at Bama. It also gives him a big net to throw lot's of offers out and then start culling them as the staff starts their evaluations. Richt doesn't play that game. He loses out on some, but he targets someone he wants and offers. If he did work that way, he would have offers out to 25-30 OL. He doesn't.
August 3rd, 2011

What if the AJC didn't always write negative articles about UGA abd Tech?
August 3rd, 2011
7:44 am
Chilywillie that's wrong I'm blk and if there was a d I scholarship trust me I will golfer that most schools educate us. It's up to the players to do the coursework. You shouldn't say that but then again you have the right to. Freedom of speech

Richt/Booboo's treatment of Kregg Lumpkin needs to be addressed.
August 3rd, 2011
7:46 am
It's Stephenson. Who cares? Yes they have a lot of talent at the high school talent, but they're poorly coached. Last person of note that played for UGA from Stephenson was Kregg Lumpkin, and that didn't go too well.
August 3rd, 2011
7:46 am
Well just be like Alabama. Offer everybody then either kick someone off the team or tell your recruit you waited too late and we ran out of scholarships.
August 3rd, 2011
7:50 am
AJ – I don't think that you can say that they are poorly coached. If they had that rep then all of the schools listed that these kids committed to would shy away from Stephenson, which doesn't seem to be happening.
August 3rd, 2011
7:53 am
Wally – if they're as GREAT as everyone says they are then why can't Stephenson EVER make it past the 2nd round of the playoffs? The fact is they show off playing against other schools not as good as Region 8 and Region 1, then get smoked by better coached TEAMS in the playoffs.
August 3rd, 2011
7:54 am
Whats wrong ajc you guys dont have anymore stories to steal from the pay sites? Who cares if none of these guys decide to stay in state and play football its THEIR choice and its THEIR life. Uga or tech arent required to sign a certain number of players from instate they go after the best players for their program. give it a rest quit trying to spark controversy. All u guys want to do is start a pissing contest between each fan base. Ajc is like a tabloid now

Georgia seems every year to get their fair share
as for Stephenson players, based on their performance in the state playoffs every year…why worry.
Looks like UGA nor Tech for that matter need them.
I will take kids from Valdosta, Lowndes, Thomasville,Warner Robins,Camden County,Americus any day, and let the Stephenson kids go to Jhorts land.

Also, how about taking a look at all the in-state offensive lineman that weren't seriously recruited by UGA, They've all signed or will sign with other teams and are either kicking UGA's butt, or helping their teams win National Titles. None attended the same schools, but all are from Georgia. (1) JAMES CARPENTER, Hepzibah, 6′6″ 330lb. OT, Two year starter at Alabama. Led team to National Title! NFL 1st round draft pick. (2) CHANCE WARMACK Atlanta Westlake,6′4″ 330 lb. OG, Three year starter at Alabama. Pre-season All-SEC.Played beside CARPENTER on Alabama's National Championship team. (3) A. J.

OG/OT, Two year starter at S.Carolina, Pre-season All-SEC.Literally pushed Uga all over Williams-Brice Stadium last year in the Gamecocks handling of Georgia. Projects as NFL 1st Round pick. (5) JUWUAN JAMES, N. Gwinnett 6′6″330 lb.OT. High school is 45 minutes from UGA campus! Named Freshman All-American at OT for Tennessee. (6) BRANDON GREENE, Atlanta Cedar Grove, 6′6″ 310 lbs. OT. Alabama Commitment. High School coach Ray Bonner, like Gartrell, hugh UGA fan. Greene named Under Armour All-American and will play in game. (7) JOE HARRIS 6′4″ 290 lb. Lithonia, OG, Probably the top OL in Georgia. Work out Warrior. High School 45 minutes from UGA Campus. South Carolina Commitment. (8) VIDAL ALEXANDER, 6′6″ 335 lb.Buford, OT, If not HARRIS OR GREENE, ALEXANDER is the top OL in the State. High School is less than 45 minutes from UGA campus. Will commit, but not to Georgia. Richt's failure to properly recruit these athletes is costing Georgia dearly. They have no choice but to run a fineese offense because they lack the physicality to pound the ball. This year, because of horrible evaluation and attrition, their backups consist of walkons , true freshman or redshirts with serious injuries from their high school days, It's doubtful UGA can risk injuries to their starters by conducting full scale scrimmages! Even the most Kool-Aid drinking UGA fan can decipher a pattern here. There's no excuse for it, and Richt/Bobo should be held accountable because they're decision making regarding these athletes is costing UGA football games.

Uga stopped recruiting stephenson players because they never pan out. Kregg lumpkin, demario minter, josh johnson, t.j. Gartrell not to metion. reggie over at tech. None of these guys ever achieved what their stars said they should
Coach gartrell must do a hell of a job selling these recruits as elite because they never do much at the next level. In fact if these players are so great, then why isnt stephenson winning any state championships?
If they never pan out then why would uga (or tech) focus a legitamite effort on them?
August 3rd, 2011
8:04 am
What do you mean what if? It's happening now. We're losing top recruits to out of state schools at an alarming rate.
August 3rd, 2011
8:04 am
UGA: losing record, multiple discipline issues, players academically ineligible, multiple arrest, Coach Staff change on the horizon, etc…
That is why players don't want to play at UGA. Stop living in the past. Florida, Alabama, LSU, Auburn have Coaches with less tenure than CMR and they have National Championships. UGA needs complete renovation. I guess according to you the UGA catch phrase should be "we are #2″
haha, LOL, haha
August 3rd, 2011
8:09 am
I'm sure somebody can give me some examples, but I honestly cannot think of any Lithonia recruits that have ever panned out for either school. Given the track record, I'm not sure this is a huge negative. How many of these 11 players did UGA even go after?
August 3rd, 2011
8:10 am
Stephenson Coaches do a great job of preparing their players for life. They get them to college. A State Championship isn't the answer to preparing a young man for life. My son could play for the Stephenson staff regardless of State Championships.
August 3rd, 2011

O-Line dad,
You should be more concerned about why your joke of a football team that resides down in the ghettos of Atlanta is unable to ever beat this "horrible" UGA team you are so worried about.
August 3rd, 2011
8:21 am
I would like to see O Line Dad stand in front of those 24 new Freshman in Athens this morning and tell them that.Richt may not be the caliber of coach at those schools you rattled off, but as a man and and mentor, the others don't come close to Richt.
August 3rd, 2011
8:21 am
This is about the eleventy-seventh article I've read about Stephenson High. I'm sick of Stephenson. Are there any other football players out there?
August 3rd, 2011
8:28 am
@chillywilly…I played at Morehouse. The kids I coach I tell them to shoot for the stars. if it doesn't work out you can always drop down and not lose eligibility…Nothing like playing in front of 80K…and the facilities and support systems at even the weaker Div 1 schools are amazing!
August 3rd, 2011
8:30 am
Stephenson: the most major scholarships. So why will nobody be surprised when its Camden 35 Stephenson 7. The object of the game is to win. Forget these Stephenson clowns.
August 3rd, 2011
8:31 am
Stephenson always have a good team coached by Gartrell.However the majority of time they field a team of men amoung boys.When these men go off to play in college ball they are playing men at the same level of size and talent.Maybe Richt evaluates what they will do at the college level or maybe Garner was a little worried about his job the last year and was a little slow in showing the love.
August 3rd, 2011
8:33 am
You are exactly right, the Lithonia kids never pan out in football. Basketball, maybe, but something happens to these kids in football as soon as they live Lithonia. This is a non-story. They won't even make the semi-finals of the playoffs this year. Book it.

Date Swirls from Grandma Soltow's Kitchen
Comment on this recipe
"My grandmother, Gladys Soltow, baked these cookies for my father, Richard Soltow, when he was stationed at Fort Lewis, Wash., during the Korean War.
"They are still Dad's favorite today because they remind him of his mother in her red-flowered apron, making the house warm with the wonderful smell of freshly baked cookies."
1 cup margarine
1 cup lightly packed brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
4 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 box (1 pound) pitted dates, chopped
2/3 cup water
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Place all the filling ingredients into a saucepan. Cook on medium heat until mixture is smooth. Let stand until mixture cools becoming 'warm' before spreading on the dough.
Combine margarine and both sugars together; mix on medium speed until creamy. Add eggs. Beat until mixture is smooth and light yellow in color.
In a separate bowl, sift the dry ingredients together. Add the dry ingredients by spoonsful to the creamy mixture.
Roll dough out onto a floured surface. Roll dough in an oblong shape about 9x13-inches or larger. Dough should be about 1/8-inch thick. Carefully spread the cooled date mixture onto the dough. Try to cover the entire surface, especially out to the edges.
Starting with the long side, roll the dough up into a long tube shape. Wrap the tube of dough in wax paper and chill in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours, until firm. Remove from the refrigerator and cut into 1/4 inch slices. (See note)
Place slices on ungreased cookie sheet about 1 inch apart and bake at 400 degrees for 7 to 10 minutes, until light golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet onto wax paper or cookie racks.
Note: In between baking, extra dough should be returned to the refrigerator to stay firm. Also, dipping the knife in flour can make slicing the dough smoother.

Thanks Miss Piggy! All of these sound like viable options. Not being extremely familiar with Asheville geography, where is the River Arts district? Is that close to downtown?
Yummy food, great local brews in Asheville?
Hi All,
Sep 27, 2013kirkaw in Mountain States
Looking for good food, fabulous atmosphere in July
One other thing I forgot to mention, we went to Hamersley's Bistro in Boston last year; it came highly recommended. I have to say that I loved the atmsophere and the wine was good, but I was not overly impressed with the food. Maybe I'm just not a French Bistro person? We went to lovely place on that same trip in Beacon Hll, but for the life of me, I can't remember what it was called. The butternut squash ravioli was to DIE for!
Looking for good food, fabulous atmosphere in July
These are all great recommendations. Now that I've reviewed some of the web sites, I can refine my request a little. I am not interested in a prix fixe menu.
Looking for good food, fabulous atmosphere in July
Looking for good food, fabulous atmosphere in July
My husband and I will be passing through DC in mid-July for 2 nights. We will have a car. I am looking for a dinner place with good food, a great wine list and wonderful atmosphere. I'm not exactly sure what we are looking for but as a frame of reference, I love ABC Kitchen, Babbo, Pastis in NYC. Also really like Rezaz and Table in Asheville NC.
Jun 22, 2013kirkaw in Washington DC & Baltimore
I think The Grocery and The Ordinary look great. Which would you recommend? Which has the best atmosphere?
The menus of Fig and Husk look similar. Is the style of preparation similar? Lots of fried foods?
My 17-year-old daughter and I will be spending Christmas day and the day after in Manhattan. We've been there several times before so we are somewhat familiar with the City. We are looking for dinner options. She loves ethnic foods and I am looking for the quintessential NYC experience. Some of our past favorites have been Babbo, Cookshop, ABC Kitchen and Mailiano.

In The Qur'an, we get the story of Solomon (Suleiman) and his interaction with the Queen of Sheba, referred to as Bilqis (and other spellings), was the leader of her country and was urged to accept the monotheism of Abraham by Solomon. She duly accepts the Faith.
The importance of this story is that it illustrates how a woman's leadership is characterized, that the quality of the leadership is based upon one's faithfulness to God: which is to be just. Nothing about her rule is characterized as anything out of line, save her previous worship of other than God.
In fact, Solomon describes her as:
"Behold, I found there a woman ruling over them; and she has been given [abundance] of all [good] things, and hers is a mighty throne." [27:23] Muhammad Asad

Another location to find current events in Shambhala International is at The Shambhala Times.
Dec 14, 2011
The Sakyong, Jamgon Mipham Rinpoche, will lead a Rigden Weekend, the culmination of Way of Shambhala I, in Northern California on the weekend of 2 - 4 March 2012. This will be a historic occasion as it will be the first time this program has been presented by the Sakyong himself.
Everyone who has completed the pre-requisites for this weekend program is warmly welcome to attend -- the Northern California Shambhala community would be delighted to welcome Shambhalians from all over North America and beyond.
The Rigden is a representation of our basic enlightened nature and embodies the principle of unconditional bravery, compassion, and wisdom.
In his letter to the mandala, sent from retreat in 2005, the Sakyong wrote: "Each member of Shambhala is in fact a Rigden. The Shambhala terma of the Druk Sakyong clearly states that those who are awake to the fact that they have basic goodness are those who have The Great Eastern Sun. The word great means that we are no longer mired in doubt, cowardice, and fear about our true nature. We have awakened to our basic goodness. East means that we can perpetually recognize it. This is what we are designed to do, and we can do it."
Registration and more information can be found here: http://norcal.shambhala.org/program_details.php?id=78552&cid=365
Please see the registration page for explanation of prerequisites for the Rigden Weekend
The Friday night talk to this program will be open to the public. If you would like to register only for the Friday night public talk Creating Enlightened Society: An Evening with Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche at Grace Cathedral, San Francisco you may do so here http://norcal.shambhala.org/program_details.php?id=84133&cid=365

Hey all,
I had an early onset of acne growing up (around 11 years old) and I finally met a dermatologist (at age 20) to have it looked at. It use to be all over the place but now it's localized on my cheeks (primarily my right cheek). Anyway my doctor prescribed me benzaclin + differin and told me to apply the benzaclin twice a day and the differen before I go to bed.
I've seen online that differin is suppose to be applied all over the face, but on the box of mine it says to apply it to the affected area. My acne is essentially localized on my cheeks and I'm wondering if I should apply it to my whole face or just those troubled areas? I'm dead serious about this too, I have virtually no acne or problems anywhere on my face BUT my cheeks.

Well i tend to put it all over my face to be honest
Posted 28 February 2012 - 02:52 AM
It takes months to work so definitely put it over your entire face. It also stimulates collagen production over time so it won't hurt if your apply it all over your face.
Posted 20 March 2012 - 03:04 PM
sometimes i only put it where i need it, other times i put it all over..just to be safe lol really its up to you

Close call on the water
crews arrived at the Blaine Harbor Marina August 29 in response
to a report that a crab fishermans boat had gone down
near Birch Point. The owner of the boat, Frank Cayoy, 39,
of La Conner Washington had been alone on the boat when
it began to sink and had become tangled in his crab pots,
emergency crews said.
A guy who was sport fishing happened to be in the area, Robbie Jon, a Blaine fisherman, said. He pulled up to me and asked if I knew the guy. He was covered in a sleeping bag. Jon advised the sport fisherman to take Cayoy to the marina.
Cayoy had been in the water for about 15 minutes. Emergency crews diagnosed the fisherman with hypothermia.
The water is cold now, said captain Jim Rutherford of the Blaine emergency response crew, death could happen in 20 to 30 minutes. .

Scholarly Communication
Our annual Scholarly Communication Symposium is designed to allow an open forum for a wider discussion of how research and scholarship are changing and for continuing University dialogue surrounding initiatives in scholarly communication.
Our Fall Symposium, The Future of First Books, will be held on Friday, October 3, 2014, from 10:00 - 12:00, in the Library's Murray Room. Learn more about the symposium.
Links to our previous events are below.
Communicating Scholarship in the 21st Century
|Friday, April 11, 2014
With speakers:
Jeff Collmann, Ph.D., Dept. of Microbiology and Immunology, Georgetown University (formerly at the Georgtown Law O'Neill Institute for National and Global Health Law)
This symposium addressed the pressing question of how academic disciplines endure and evolve, and how scholarship is communicated across generations.
Scholarly Uses of the Internet in Science
|Friday, November 1, 2013
With panelists Professor Anne Rosenwald, Department of Biology,
This symposium brought together a panel of experts in computer science and biology to discuss the ways that scientists use the Internet to create knowledge, disseminate and share data and communicate ideas, opinions and concepts. With examples from their own experience, the panelists highlighted some of the greatest opportunities and challenges new technologies offer the sciences. They also explored the issue of whether the use of the Internet for scholarly communication in science differs from its use in the social sciences or humanities.

Social Media in Academia
|Friday, November 2, 2012
Rachel Pugh (GU Office of Communications); Richard Price (CEO, Academia.edu); David Ribes (Georgetown University); Guest of Honor and Moderator: Neeru Paharia (McDonough School of Business, Georgetown University)
At universities, social media enjoy great popularity as tools to connect privately and informally with friends and colleagues. In addition, these tools offer features that allow users to promote and highlight their professional or academic work, to follow the work of others, and even to engage in new types of collaborative research.
Planning and Promoting the creation of scientific knowledge: Three perspectives
|Monday, April 30, 2012
Amy Brand (Assistant Provost for Faculty Appointments | HARVARD UNIVERSITY)
Lynne Herndon (Senior Vice President of Global Academic Relations | ELSEVIER)
"I believe that publishers, often with the help of participating researchers, will continue to add value to content by inventing new tools to enhance their workflows. I believe a form of peer review will always exist and that as information proliferates, the need for filtering and curation will also grow. I believe that publishing will be funded in a multitude of ways. And I hope that science will continue to play a major role in scholarship and an increasing one in an informed society."
Micah Altman (Director of Research | MIT Libraries) [License of recording: CC-BY-SA]
"Since knowledge is not a private good, a pure market approach leads to underprovisioning. Planning for access to the scholarly record should include planning for long-term access beyond the life of a single institution. Important problems in scholarly communications, information science & scholarship increasingly require diverse multi-disciplinary approaches."

Forte has a Bachelor of Science degree in computer science and started doing websites 12 years ago. She establishes, maintains and makes changes for her clients' unique websites.
Forte says she primarily helps clients that don't have the time or the knowledge to re-create professional websites. Her husband, Gene Forte contributes as a marketing manager and offers advice and suggestions for local customers.
"I found I could understand the concept pretty easily," Forte said. "When things change, I can change the website — I provide services that keep the website fresh. It's not just having a website — the whole idea is to market your business."
