Eric Holder allowed the Post to say he's totally awesome.
Yesterday a number of press outlets met with Attorney General Eric Holder to discuss why the Department of Justice is so enamored with the idea of involving journalists and their parents in leak investigations. A number of high-profile media outlets declined, including the Associated Press and Fox News, both of whom have seen more than enough of the Justice Department for a while, but some persisted in their pursuit of truth, justice and the possibility of earning a batch of cupcakes for their White House press room hovel by attending the meeting.
Ironically, the meeting about transparency was off the record, though it turns out some of the outlets were able to negotiate the ability to report on the meeting in generalities and using vague language that was pre-approved by the World's Top Protector of Press Freedom. Included in the list of sanctioned descriptors? Information that, yes, indeed, the Justice Department is on the side of the people who report the news.
Well, some of the news, anyway.
Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. pledged Thursday to take concrete steps to address concerns that the Justice Department has overreached in its leak investigations and said officials would seek procedural and possibly legislative changes to protect journalists' First Amendment rights.
Holder's commitment came at a private meeting with news executives after criticism that the Justice Department had infringed on the news media in several high-profile leak investigations. Participants said he told them officials would revise guidelines for issuing subpoenas to obtain reporters' phone records.
The 90-minute meeting was attended by a small group of journalists after several news organizations objected to the Justice Department's insistence that it be held off the record. The participants, however, reached an agreement with the Justice Department under which they could describe what occurred during the meeting in general terms. The Justice Department is expected to meet with other news organizations and media lawyers in coming days.
The problem remains that the Justice Department is acting as though the reporters need protection from them, not that they need to control themselves and consider the implications of their activities – Holder's most notable suggestion has consistently been a SHIELD law that would allow writers and editors to defeat subpoenas that he issues under certain circumstances, rather than institutional guidelines that would, say, prevent him from issuing unnecessary subpoenas in the first place – and while the expressions of concerns are nice, they don't really give James Rosen back the security of being able to email his parents funny photos of cats without fear their going into his permanent record.
Plus, there's still this thing about the Washington Post reporting what the Justice Department told them to report. Doesn't it strike anyone in this group as odd that the DOJ would hold a meeting to talk about how awesome freedom of the press is, deny them the ability to put it on the record, and then go one step further and tell them what to print? It's like they're just trolling the entire press corps now, hoping they'll be too enamored with the attention to notice.

The landscape of the criminal justice system had been irrevocably transformed. The ever-present danger of terrorism and other forms of transnational crimes necessitates a closer collaboration among criminal justice agencies on all levels: federal, state, local, and even international levels.
In September 2009, Monroe College responded to the needs of the evolving criminal justice system and launched our first graduate program in Criminal Justice. The curriculum of the Master of Science degree program in Criminal Justice has been expressly designed to prepare the criminal justice professional for success in this new climate. Our graduates will emerge with a firm understanding of crime reduction strategies, dexterity in research and crime mapping skills and the ability to ascend to leadership roles in the field. Even better, our faculty combines both research and practical applications to enhance our graduate curriculum.
Career opportunities in Criminal Justice abound in the public, non-profit and for-profit sectors. As the nature of the work in the criminal justice system becomes increasingly complex and the job market more competitive, emphasis will be placed on the credential a graduate degree brings.
We are in need of highly educated Criminal Justice professionals to enhance public safety, human services, community development and policies in urban crime issues at home and abroad and the King Graduate School's Master's degree program in Criminal Justice is a passport toward those high-level careers.
I invite you to browse our website and please contact us with further questions. I look forward to welcoming you to Monroe College King Graduate School's Master in Criminal Degree program!

3 Flights Tips from Someone With Experience
Flying in South Africa on Cheap Flights
In recent years, airlines all over the world have responded to the global financial downturn and their constant need to make profits by lowering the total costs of their various flight packages. This is no different for airlines in South Africa, where residents and visitors alike tend to enjoy experiencing the many sites and beauties that the different cities and territories throughout the country have to offer. Especially during a time when personal financial issues may prevent people from planning such getaways, these airlines have realized that they could actually get more customers by making prices more affordable. If you live in or are visiting South Africa, you should really consider using an airline offering cheap flights if you are planning to explore the country's wonderful scenery, people, and culture.
Many people might wonder about why airlines are now able to sell such cheap flight tickets when they never have before. Well, they have simply learned that they could provide incredible savings to their customers by simply eliminating many unnecessary amenities, as well as making other key operational changes. Rather than providing things like inflight meals and beverages or blankets and pillows as standard accommodations, these airlines have either altogether eliminated them or else offer these as extra options that must be paid for. Additionally, many airlines have attempted to bring in more customers and offset their lower prices by offering special package deals, frequent flyer rewards, and other similar perks.
With the increase of internet usage in South Africa, many airlines have been able to cut many of their overhead costs by relying more on the internet for sales and advertising. Previously, airlines have had to work with various agents and a wide variety of traditional marketing methods to reach out to past and potential customers. With powerful tools such as search engine optimization, airlines have gotten much greater value and cost benefit by doing the bulk of their marketing online. They have also given their customers greater convenience and customization options by increasing the functionality and usefulness of their company websites. It is now possible for families and businesses to take care of their entire flight plan through the internet, never having to leave the home or office.
The 10 Laws of Trips And How Learn More
As eCommerce has become more prevalent, there have been a significant amount of cheap flight comparison sites popping up that customers have begun taking advantage of. Through a single website, you are now able to view and compare the varying prices being offered for the same destinations by the different South Africa airlines. It is also possible for you to purchase special holiday packages, which might include cheap flights, hotel discounts, and car rental deals. While this definitely is a benefit for customers, this benefits airlines just as well, by allowing them to sell even more flight tickets.
News For This Month: Bookings
Between developing technologies and changing financial conditions around the globe, airlines have managed to find ways to change their operations toward greater benefit for their customers and themselves. This is certainly good news for any residents or visitors of South Africa that love to see the immense beauty throughout the whole country. Given all of the many options you have for cheap flights in South Africa, you will surely come across the best deals by beginning your research and travel planning as early as possible.

Elizabeth Taylor has never been sexier than as Tennessee Williams's hot-blooded Maggie "The Cat" Pollitt, prowling around her boudoir in a slinky white slip. That's how you know her alcoholic, ex-football-player husband, Brick (Paul Newman), must have more than just his leg in a cast. It's the 65th birthday of wealthy (but dying) southern patriarch Big Daddy (Burl Ives), and his sons Gooper (Jack Carter) and Brick have come to suck up to him for $10 million in inheritance money. Gooper is a family man and father to a brood of "no-neck monsters"; youngest boy Brick is papa's favorite (as if you couldn't tell from the fellow's names), but hasn't sired progeny. Maggie is definitely in heat, but Brick refuses to sleep with her because he suspects her her of being unfaithful with his best friend, who recent committed suicide. Although toned down for the movies, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof is vintage Tennessee Williams. The film was directed by Richard Brooks (In Cold Blood, Blackboard Jungle, Elmer Gantry). --Jim Emerson

CLEVELAND -- As shot after shot dropped through the net, it became clear LeBron James was going to have one of those special nights.
The kind he has every so often.
The kind he has when Dwyane Wade sits.
James scored 43 points -- 25 in a bewildering first-quarter shooting display -- and Chris Bosh added 21, leading the Miami Heat to a 100-96 win Tuesday night over the Cleveland Cavaliers, who played their first game without injured All-Star guard Kyrie Irving.
With Wade out resting his sore knees, James took it upon himself to carry the Heat. The same thing happened on March 3 and James responded by scoring a career-high 61 against Charlotte.
"I don't know, it's one of those zones," James said, trying to explain how he made 10 of 11 shot and five 3-pointers in the dizzying opening quarter. "When I started the game off, I felt like I could have gone for 50 or 60."
James added two crucial blocks and dropped six free throws in the final two minutes, and Bosh had a key rejection to lead the Heat to just their third win in eight games.
With Wade out, the Heat's two other megastars picked up the slack.
Jarrett Jack scored 22 and Dion Waiters added 17 and 11 assists for Cleveland, which was also without starting forward Luol Deng (sprained ankle). Irving's expected to miss two weeks with a strained biceps tendon, an injury that further damages the Cavs' fading playoff hopes. Cleveland fell six games behind Atlanta for the final playoff spot.
"Our guys hung in there and they competed," Cavs coach Mike Brown said.
After one quarter, it was: James 25, Cavs 25.
And like the other 20,000 plus in attendance, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra marveled at James' accuracy.
"That had nothing to do with me," Spoelstra said. "Truth be told, it's not like I'm absolutely in love with those type of plays, but he had it rolling. So I took a step back for a little bit."
The four-time MVP had 31 points at halftime and 37 after three quarters, but the Heat entered the final 12 minutes tied as they were unable to shake off the Cavs, who shot 60 per cent from the floor through three and had all five starters in double figures.
With James content to distribute the ball, Bosh scored nine straight points to put Miami ahead 93-88 with 2:24 remaining. Cleveland cut it to three on a basket by Anderson Varejao and had a chance to get closer but James -- with an assist from Udonis Haslem -- snuffed a dunk attempt by Spencer Hawes. Just 11 seconds later, Bosh turned away Waiters and James made a pair of free throws to make it 95-90 with 1:06 remaining.
After empty possessions by both teams, James blocked a drive by Waiters and Bosh split a pair of free throws, giving the Heat a 96-90 lead. Jack made two 3-pointers in the final 15.7 seconds, but both times James answered by hitting two free throws to close it out.
Spoelstra was most pleased with Miami's defence down the stretch.
"Probably my favourite play was the double block," he said. "U.D. and L.J. going for that. It should be a layup. It should be a dunk. To make that play, those are the things I like to see."
James improved to 13-1 against the Cavaliers, the team he left after seven seasons as a free agent in 2010.
James made his first six shots -- four of them 3s -- and showed most of his offensive repertoire in the first quarter. He hit fadeaways, runners and a thunderous breakaway dunk. The only shot James missed came on a "heat-check" 3-pointer from way beyond the arc.
"That's what makes LeBron unique in this league," Spoelstra said. "In today's age, there are players who would be looking for numbers with that type of start to see if you can go for 70. LeBron's just trying to play the game the right way. It takes great maturity. He's selfless."
It was James' second visit to Cleveland in 10 days. He had been back on March 8, when former teammate Zydrunas Ilgauskas had his jersey retired by the Cavs, who may one day raise the No. 23 James wore to the rafters of Quicken Loans Arena.
Much pregame hype focused on the All-Star's future. James can opt out of his contract with Miami this summer and become a free agent, and one of his possible destinations could be Cleveland.
Asked directly if he wants to play for his former team again, James was noncommittal.
"As of right now, it's too hard for me to think about," he said. "We have 20 or less games before we gear up for no sleep for two months, hopefully. So for me to try and take my mind somewhere else when I know what's on its way is almost impossible."
NOTES: Wade will be re-evaluated Wednesday when the Heat visit Boston. ... James has yet to fill out his NCAA tournament brackets and didn't seem to be in a hurry to do it anytime soon. "I'm terrible," he said. He was then reminded about the $1 billion Gilbert and tycoon Warren Buffett are offering for anyone who picks the games perfectly. Doesn't he want the billion? "No," James said. "I'm just going to ask him for it." It's unclear whether he meant Gilbert or Buffett. ... Spoelstra intends to keep C Greg Oden in the starting lineup, a drastic change for Miami, which has favoured smaller, shooter-heavy lineups. Oden made his third start and finished with six points in 14 minutes.

5 credit rules everyone should follow
Used correctly, credit cards and loans can help you lead a better financial life. Missteps can be costly, though, so heed these guidelines.
Managing credit correctly requires a certain amount of discipline. If you let your spending get out of control or take on too many loans, you could face big money troubles. That's why it's important to have some guidelines for borrowing sensibly. Here are five rules every consumer should follow to keep their finances and credit scores intact.
1. Make payments on time
Stellar payment histories are key when it comes to establishing good credit scores. Of all the components used to calculate most credit scoring models, paymeht histories have the largest impact. And one missed bill will certainly cost you. As this FICO study illustrates, a recent late payment can cause as much as a 90- to 110-point drop on a FICO score of 780 or higher. Missed bills can do further damage to your wallet, too, because late payments typically trigger penalty fees and increases in annual percentage rates.
To avoid both pitfalls, it's a good idea to set up automatic payments for your car, student and home loans so you don't get caught behind. With credit cards, it's always a good idea to pay off everything you owe, but be sure to make at least minimum payments each month before the billing cycle due date.
Additionally, "if you have problems paying bills on time, don't get a credit card," says Karen Carlson, the director of education for nonprofit agency InCharge Debt Solutions.
2. Don't bump up against your credit limit
After your payment history, your credit utilization ratio -- how much credit you are using as a percentage of how much you have available to you -- plays a big role in shaping your credit profile. To keep your scores from taking a dive, it's important to avoid bumping up against credit limits. Instead, try to use only 25% or less of all your available credit at any given time, says Deatra Riley, a financial education manager for nonprofit credit counseling organization CredAbility.
And don't let anyone fool you into thinking you need to carry balances to give your scores a boost.
"I have never seen a credit scoring model award points for that," Carlson says. "It's really about the account being paid as agreed."
3. Always consider your credit scores
Whether adding to or subtracting from your credit profile, it's important to consider what effect the move is going to have on your credit scores. Of course, to do so, you'll need to know what your credit scores actually are. Consumers should review their credit reports for errors and other issues at least once a year. You can do this for free by visiting AnnualCreditReport.com.
You should also pull your credit report before applying for a new loan. If the report shows blemishes that would lower your scores, consider building them up before you add any credit cards or installment loans.
"Be creditworthy when the opportunity arises," Carlson says, so you can get the best rate on each line of credit. High credit scores will also allow you to score the best rewards credit cards.
4. Understand the terms and conditions associated with all your loans
Terms and conditions vary from product to product, so it's important to read through every loan or credit-card contract before you sign on the dotted line. According to Brent Neiser, a senior director at the National Endowment for Financial Education, you should check the interest rates that are being offered and when they will be applied. Also examine fee structures thoroughly so you have a good sense of the costs associated with each line of credit.
Additionally, Neiser recommends that you ask, "What are the incentives?"
Riley also suggests printing out contracts and keeping them in a "safe, secure place" so they can be easily accessed should an issue arise.
5. Charge in accordance with your budget
A credit card can be a powerful payment method; it allows you to earn points on purchases and may also get you access to exclusive perks and discounts. But the benefits of special offers can easily be wiped away if you don't control your spending. A mountain of interest-incurring debt will more than cancel out any rewards or other perks. To avoid winding up in dire financial straits, Carlson suggests using credit cards only as outlined in a written budget.
- Calculator: How long to pay off your credit cards?
"This is the (rule) most people don't follow," she says, because it's very easy to think of a credit card as a financial lifeline. However, you need to be sure to use it to purchase only those items you could afford even if card wasn't at your disposal. You also need to make sure your budget contains a savings plan.
"Don't use a credit card as a replacement for your emergency fund," Carlson says. "Credit is a wonderful tool to meet the needs of positive events. It's not a tool for negative events."

How do the Credit Report Agencies verify data pertaining to a dispute? I am being held accountable for an alledged un-paid balance for service provided. I filed a dispute, as the account has been closed for a year, the equipment returned and the balance was paid in full. I just received the 'results' of the dispute, and all it said was the account and balance will not change. I received no other info than that.
I have bank statements showing the monthly payments were paid, up to the final month the account was closed by me (we moved). And now my credit score dropped 68 points. How can that be
legitimate? It feels like I'm being black mailed. Or my credit score is being held ransom, and until I pay the alledged balance ($277.00) my credit score WILL NOT change. But, if I pay the amount they want just to gey my score back up, I am 'buying' back my score. AND, this is now gone to a collection agency because it's been over a year. Why didn't I get any invoices from the Service Provider during the past year? I just need to get the truth, no ones knows what that is. Has anyone heard of any class action suits?

Here's a sampling of the latest monster illustrations from Mark Hyzer for Kaidan.
1. Tsuchinoko - a wide girthed snake monster, highly poisonous and medium sized, found all over the forested wilderness of Kaidan.
2. Hell Samurai - building my denizens from Hell (Yomi), so I needed a hellish nobleman, samurai, monk and a few others. On this monster, instead of armor it has armor-looking exoskeleton. I like the attached sword arms as well.
3. Same-bito - shark man shape-changer, warrior guardian of the Sea Dragon King, Ryu, though they can appear more human in shape, they prefer shark and hybrid shark men, like the illustration shown.
These are just some of the really cool stuff, Mark Hyzer is creating for me, I just wanted to show some of the latest stuff (I really like the Shark Man).

Critical Essay by Roderick Nordell
Two centuries after Shakespeare, not to mention ten times as many after Homer, people still did not know what "poetry is."…
So it is hardly surprising that, after the mere 75 years in the history of jazz, this latter-day art form still tempts the definers. In "Jazz Is" a long-time social critic and heart-on-sleeve jazz specialist throws the latest lifeline to a laity left floundering by such wry semi-truths as the one attributed to jazz's Shakespeare, Louis Armstrong: "If you have to ask what jazz is, you'll never know."
Nat Hentoff is a kind of prototype of the white kid who hung around the dancehall door and never got over the sounds of the black musicians and their musical descendants, now of every color. Today he's in that...

PISCATAWAY, NJ – Junior All-American Carli Lloyd (Delran, NJ) has been named to the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) Women's Soccer Mid-Atlantic Region All-First Team, while sophomore Kim Brandao (Rahway, NJ) earned a spot on the All-Third Team, the organization announced Dec. 8.
Lloyd, a midfielder, earned her third consecutive all-region award, and her second first-team (2001) certificate from the NSCAA. She led RU with 28 points (13 G, 2 A) this fall, earning first-team all-BIG EAST Conference honors for the third consecutive year.
By earning a spot on this year's first team, Lloyd became the first Scarlet Knight to ever be named a NSCAA first-team all-region selection twice during her career. As a three-time honoree, she now trails only Uchenna Bright in the RU record books. Bright was honored four times during her career, earning a spot on the second team in 1996 and 1997 and third-team accolades in 1998 and 1999.
Brandao, a back, has started every match during her two seasons "On the Banks." A member of the 2003 All-BIG EAST Second Team and the 2002 BIG EAST All-Rookie Team, she scored her first collegiate goal in a 1-0 win at Virginia Tech Oct. 19, and twice was named the BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Week this fall (Sept. 22, Oct. 20). This marks Brandao's first all-region selection.
This is the third consecutive year that Rutgers has received a pair of all-region awards from the NSCAA. In 2001, Lloyd was named to the first team and forward Keri Lages was a third-team selection. Last season, Lloyd was joined by goalkeeper Christine Caldwell on the All-Second Team.
A total of 33 student-athletes were honored by the NSCAA from the Mid-Atlantic Region, which includes schools in Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia. As a first-team all-region selection, Lloyd will now be eligible for the NSCAA All-America Team. As a freshman in 2001, Lloyd earned third-team All-America honors from the organization.
The Rutgers women's soccer team (10-7-5, 3-2-1 BIG EAST) advanced to the second round of the 2003 NCAA Tournament and the quarterfinals of the BIG EAST Tournament.

For rebates available to commercial or business operations, visit the websites at the end of this document.
Federal Government Rebates
Small Scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES)
Replacing RECs, the Small Scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES) provides rebates for both solar electricity (PV) and solar hot water.
Solar PV – Solar Credits
The government rebate for solar photovoltaic electricity systems (solar PV) is called the Solar Credits scheme. Under this scheme, solar PV systems are eligible for a significant rebate, based on the size of your system, where you live in Australia and when it is installed.
For a 1.5 kW system in Melbourne, you will be eligible for around $800.
Typically, your solar installer or retailer will claim the Solar Credits for you, and offer it as an upfront discount on the cost of your system, so you don't need to do anything to get the rebate – in this case, the price quoted to you will be the price you have to pay after rebates.
Victorian State Government rebates
Feed-in tariff
A feed-in tariff is an amount of money that you can get paid when you generate electricity from your house, for example using a solar panel. The Victorian government now offers a new feed-in tariff for all types of renewable energy (such as wind and biomass) and also have a feed-in tariff for solar panels.
The new feed-in tariff (for solar PV systems, wind, hydro or biomass systems up to 100kW) is a minimum of 8 cents per kWh for the net electricity that you return to the grid.
Details – Vic Gov.: Dept. of Primary Industries
Solar hot water
You are eligible for a rebate if you are:
- Replacing an existing solar, natural gas or LPG water heater with a gas-boosted solar system.
- Adding solar to an existing natural gas or LPG water heater by installing a solar system as a pre-heater.
- Adding solar to an existing conventional off-peak electric water heater by installing a retrofit kit.
Rebate amount:
- Metropolitan Melbourne: point of sale discount of $300-$1500.
- Regional Victoria: point of sale discount of $400-$1600
For a list of participating suppliers in Victoria: Victorian Government: Resource Smart
More details - Victorian Government: Resource Smart
Gas hot water
This rebate is a point of sale discount; $400 for a 5-star instantaneous or storage hot water heater (4+ star for internal systems), $700 for concession card holders, as above, and $300 installation rebate if you live in a flat or apartment where there's a separate occupancy directly above or below you.
Details - Victorian Government: Resource Smart
Rainwater tank and water savers
Financial assistance for water efficient showerheads, upgrading to eligible dual flush toilets, garden products, rainwater tanks and systems for reusing household waste water. The rebate can be claimed by applying after installation of the product, and can be received as a credit on your water bill or through electronic funds transfer (for larger items).
Details - Living Victoria Water Rebate Program
Whitegoods appliances
These schemes assist low income households in purchasing efficient whitegoods. The rebate offers a $100 discount on the purchase of washing machine or fridge that meet a specified star energy water rating.
Details - Living Greener
Victorian Energy Efficiency Certificates
The VEET (Victorian Energy Efficiency Target) scheme is different to rebates. Introduced in January 2009, the scheme aims to provide incentives to promote household energy efficiency. Certificates are created when customers replace or install energy efficient products and services, and can be traded to reduce your costs.

So as fate would have it, on a great holiday opportunity for some delicious cookins, our beloved Meg was being hogged by Oregonians, so JP and I were left to fend for ourselves on the 4th of July. The verdict: Lasagna.
I used the Random Girl Mushroom and Sausage Lasagna Recipe that I like so much...
...Which yielded some delicious results and many scrumptious leftovers. We also tried Random Girl's Raspberry Cheesecake Bars (we used blackberries instead!) and wrestled with it a bit but it ultimately came out pretty tasty.
Yay, cooking. Hopefully Meg returns to blogging soon so you can get your hands on a real entry!

Can he have one original idea, pleeeease?

I love him and his fun style

I love him too. I heard he recently got married! Congrats Jonathan!!!
Hey I do this in my bedroom! I have an orange stripe in my duvet cover, an orangey coral-poppy raw silk throw pillow,and a large piece of artwork that features the color. Then in the hall just outside the room I have another piece hanging that has a bunch of that same tone of orange. It really is mood enhancing!
How can a color be bright and neutral? Aren't those, like, opposites?
I'm surprised he doesn't have a fun tip on how to make beige pop.
I find his tuff to be very 1970"s looking and that is a period of interior design that should be forgotten!
I know people love him, but none of his designs are his own ideas and it all looks like it is from the '70s. not a good time for design.

Yeah, some people are saying I'll want machines in the long run but I don't know if that's true. I see myself doing SS and the moving on to 5x5. But I'm worried about the future and whether or not...
My goal is to just in general be strong and fit. I've been doing starting strength for a year so far and I'm squatting 225, benching 165, and deadlifting 180. I've been doing the program for so long...
I'm thinking of building a home gym with this being the main piece. Anyone got any thoughts on whether or not its a good cage?
Thanks for all the help guys, I'll get crackin' now :)!
Any other comments?
Thanks a lot for the advice man. Btw should I stop squatting until the pain goes away? Or should I just squat even less like... say 135 lbs. I did hip flexor stretches (they look kinda like lunges).
1. Well I want to get... more ripped than I am now so I guess I need to cut first?
2. I'm Around that height, I believe I'm 5'7 (I'd be more than happy to take your suggestion and bulk)

After more than four hours of testimony and discussion, the Kearney Public School Board of Education still had not voted Monday night about the fate of an elementary school teacher.
The board of education held a special meeting to hear Central Elementary teacher Candace Flavell, who's being questioned about taking excessive time off.
She said it's because of religion reasons.
Flavell asked for time off earlier in the school year to attend religious events. She said she'd been granted the time-off request in the past during her 12 years with the district.
This year, her request was denied, but she took the time anyway and was placed on administrative leave.
"You will see that this is an exceptional teacher that you have had for a long time that has done wonderful things and has shown year after year despite the fact that there as been a request for leave for religious purposes year after year," said Flavell's attorney, Rick Wade.
The school district said teachers are allowed three personal days with pay and a few without, but Flavell had taken two weeks off since the start of the school year in August.
The district's attorney said her absence included at least one parent-teacher conference day.
"The calendar fell really bad this year as far as ability of the ELL teacher to leave," the district's attorney said. "And, what she missed, could not be made up by a substitute."
The Board of Education had not voted on whether or not Flavell would be terminated as of 11 p.m. Monday.

GYLA States Prisoners Die Because of Ineffective Activities of the Court and Commissions
Representatives of the Georgian Young Lawyers Association [GYLA] state inmates of the jail hospital # 18 with gross diseases die because of ineffective activities of the joint commissions of the Penitentiary and Healthcare Ministries.
Chairwoman of the GYLA Tamar Chugoshvili said at the press-conference that two prisoners died in the jail hospital short time ago because the court did not timely discuss their cases.
According to Tamar Chugoshvili, on March 7, 2012 convicted Aleksandre Dadiani died in jail hospital # 18. According to medical notification, he died of acute deficiency of breathing and blood circulation systems caused by tube-intoxication. Chugoshvili from the GYLA said that according to the same medical notification the convicted was seriously ill. According to the law, the convicted [with acute health problems] was to be released from prison or should have had his term postponed but the court relied on the conclusion of the Levan Samkharauli National Bureau of the Forensic Expertise and left him in prison.
GYLA's lawyer Mikheil Gogadze said prisoner Otar Khabelashvili had serious health problems and he was to be released or have his imprisonment postponed in accordance to the law. However, he was not released and died in jail hospital.
The GYLA states that they provide several convicted with legal aid and some of them have serious health problems though they were also refused to be released because of "absence of relevant grounds".
"We believe that if decision-making bodies continue their approach to the issue or their inactivity with regard to those prisoners, the provision in the law about postponing – canceling the imprisonment term of seriously diseased prisoners looses sense and maybe, in most cases it will result into their death," the GYLA's lawyers state.

UPDATED: Auburn chief rebuts AG letter regarding dropped charges against ex-officer
The state Attorney General's Office dropped charges against retired police Lt. David Flight after obtaining paperwork that contradicted statements by the police chief. (COURTESY)
BRENTWOOD – Attorney General Michael Delaney said on Friday that his office dropped the prosecution of David Flight after paperwork surfaced just prior to trial that suggested he stored a cache of 50 rifles at his home on behalf of the Auburn police department.
That account, according to Delaney, was in direct conflict with statements made by Auburn Chief Edward Picard, who adamantly denied on Thursday that he ever gave a Remington 30-06 rifle to Flight as a payment for storing seized weapons at his home.
Flight, a retired Auburn police lieutenant, was headed to trial on Monday, charged with receiving stolen property and theft by unauthorized taking for allegedly stealing the high powered Remington rifle from the department's evidence room sometime after Dec. 7, 1992.
A pair of "daily activity logs" by Flight and another officer from August 26, 1992 – which detailed moving the 50 rifles to Flight's home -- led the Attorney General's Office to drop all charges last Tuesday.
The decision happened just two weeks before Flight's trial.
Delaney said if his investigators had those documents earlier, "they certainly would have played a significant role in our decision to present this case to the grand jury."
Picard said in an interview on Thursday that the cache of weapons was part of a State Police case, but that Flight made a report of moving the guns.
Picard also said he was prepared to testify at trial to rebut any claim that Flight was given the rifle.
In a statement released on Friday, view the letter here, Picard said many people with personal knowledge about the rifle "have since retired, passed away, or moved out of the area."
"At no time were any weapons given to David Flight or any other police officer as "gifts" from evidence storage," Picard said in the statement.
"I would like to thank the Attorney General's Office for its year-long investigation," the chief added. "It is extremely difficult to investigate something that is over 20 years old. We have had many years of mutual respect and cooperation, and will continue to have the same."
Delaney said at the outset of the investigation Picard, "stated unequivocally that there had been no seizure of weapons too large to fit in (the) evidence room," and that his department "never would have authorized the storage of firearms at a personal residence, and that no weapons had been stored at David Flight's house."
State investigators spent months interviewing witnesses, including Flight and Picard, to determine how Flight came to possess the rifle.
"He said that you gave him the rifle at issue, which had been taken in to evidence on an unrelated matter, as payment for storing the (other) weapons at his home," Delaney said in a letter to Picard released Friday. "When asked about Mr. Flight's account, you told the investigators that you believed (those) weapons were stored at the Rockingham County Sheriff's Office."
Delaney said his investigators initially sought records from the police department about the 1992 seizure of 50 rifles from a man by the last name of Trudeau.
"They were told the paperwork and files no longer existed," Delaney said.
But Auburn police were able to produce the logs created by Flight and a second officer just last month, prior to a final court hearing usually held roughly two weeks before trial.
"These documents directly contradict your statements to investigators that there was no seizure of weapons that would have been stored at David Flight's house," Delaney said. "Despite our requests for all paperwork or files in the department's possession concerning the Trudeau weapons, these documents were not provided to us until March 21, 2013, just seven days before the final pretrial conference."
Picard was out of town on Friday night on a planned trip, said Auburn Police Commissioner David Dion. He said the chief planned to return on Wednesday.
Picard set off the investigation into Flight last January when he reported to the Attorney General's Office that the Remington rifle was missing from the police department's evidence room. He also provided records which showed Flight now possessed the same gun.
If Flight's theory was true about being given the gun, Dion said, then Picard would have no reason to report the matter to the state Attorney General's Office.
"He would have had no reason to do that had he given that gun to Flight, or to other officers," Dion said on Friday night.
The criminal case was brought nearly two years after Flight retired from the department in November 2010 after an audit into inventory missing from the department's evidence room was deemed inconclusive.
The audit prompted the department to upgrade security measures for the evidence room, an improvement Delaney mentioned in his letter.
"After speaking with your officers, it is clear that your department has taken steps to maintain evidence integrity that were not in place back in 1992," he said. "However, the evidence storage decisions made in 1992 were not made with the care taken today."
Delaney said when his prosecutors met with Picard a day after the charges were dropped, the chief, "acknowledged that these daily time logs would have adversely impacted the presentation of the case before a jury."

Special, New-Orleans only eats in New Orleans?
I'm visiting New Orleans around this year's Halloween for the first time, and planning to stay for four days. I'd like to try cuisine that can only be found in New Orleans. Right now what comes to mind immediately is Cajun and Creole cuisine, as well as small items, like po'boy. What else am I missing? Can anyone recommend me restaurants that serve dishes/food that very much reflect New Orleans? I read in several threads a recommendation on 100 year old restaurants like Galatoire, that sounds like the type of resturants that I am looking for. Which others should I dine at?
Cost is of no concern, willing to drive, and willing to search. Much thanks to the hounds!!
re: Tonto
We frequent Brigtsen's on our many trips to New Orleans, thanks to the recommendations of the New Orleans Chowhounds. I saw below that you already have plans to eat at Brigtsen's during your visit....great choice! Enjoy Frank Brigtsen discussing his restaurant and the post-Katrina New Orleans restaurant scene at the link below. It'll even give you a few suggestions of what to order while you're there.
I love answering questions like these but then hours later all sorts of new ideas pop into my head. For traditional New Orleans creole food, the two best are Galatoire's and Arnauds. Oysters brochette, shrimp remoulade, trout almondine, cafe brulot, and crabmeat maison are the dishes that are truly New Orleans. Here are other suggestions: Turtle soup at Upperline, jambalaya and a fried seafood po-boy at Mother's, gumbo and raw oysters at Casamentos, fried seafood at Jaques-imos or at Deanie's seafood. For cajun style over creole, crawfish etouffe and bread pudding at the Bon Ton, blackened redfish at K Pauls, and soft shell crab po-boy at the Galley seafood in Metaririe. Also, for the most authentic italian influenced creole, Mosca's restaurant is a must. It is a hike but the food is well worth it. Don't miss the oysters mosca and the shrimp diavolo or is it diablo? Finger lickin'. Good luck. Some of these places I mentioned are not glamorous but they are generally local except for Mother's which has "plenny tourists" but still serves great, local food.
re: mikey
I disagree about blackened anything! All of our grandmothers were horrified at the concept of burning good redfish! And then everyone did it so poorly. Stick to the classics.
Casamento's has wonderful oysters. They only take cash and close early.
Don't stand in line with the tourists for Acme - try Felix's or The Pearl instead.
And anywhere you go, ask the waiter what's fresh and what the locals order. You'll get the best food. As mikey says, the best places in NOLA often aren't elegant, but you will eat well.
Parasol's has a great roast beef po boy.
Pascal's Manale for the Barbequed Shrimp.
For any place, check the hours because they're erratic post-Katrina. But the City is trying hard!
re: MakingSense
Is the Pearl still open? Has Felix's in the FQ reopened?
There may be a lot of bad blackened fish, but it's still an amazing dish at K-Paul's. Not Cajun, no. It's his own, original recipe.
re: Frolic
Blackened redfish is (or was - haven't been in awhile) wonderful at K-Paul's but it got ruined in the translation just about everywhere else. It's worth going to the source.
re: MakingSense
Small note. It's no longer redfish. He touched off such a craze that the commercial fishing of redfish had to be suspended.
re: Frolic
Actually, it is redfish - but it's farm raised, not wild.
re: phyllisstein
It's true that any redfish in a restaurant is farm raised. You have to be a fisherman (or be friends with one) to get the wild stuff.
K-Paul's substitutes black drum.
Personally, I'm not a big fan of Mother's. I think the food is mediocre on a good day. Galatoire's is very uniquely New Orleans in atmosphere and in menu (if you go for dinner, be prepared to dress up. Jackets are still required for men). Antoine's is also coming back after years of resting on their laurels, but it's even more expensive than Galatoire's, and I prefer G's, personally.
Keep checking this board because rumor has it that Commander's Palace will reopen some time in October. That's certainly worth a trek. My favorite "creole bistros" (great food, not too touristy) would include Brigtsen's, Upperlline (can be erratic), and Dick & Jenny's. I really am a proponent of venturing out of the quarter for at least one meal and I've taken a lot of people to both Brigtsen's & Dick & Jenny's who come away amazed at the quality of food in these "hidden" gems. I used to be a big fan of Jacques-Imo's, but it's losing a little luster IMHO.
If you're an oyster lover, the best single oyster dish in town are the charbroiled oysters at Drago's in Metairie. Drago's also has the best raw bar. Also would agree w/ previous posters about Casamento's (for fried oysters), K-Paul, and Bon Ton. In the quarter, Frankie & Johnny's are the best po-boys. Out of the quarter, I like the BBQ Shrimp Po-Boy at Liuzza's By the Track and Mike is 100% correct about the softshell po-boy at Galley Seafood.
If you're up late and find yourself hungry, go to Coop's on Decatur, for the great, cheap, jambalaya. My favorite Sunday brunch is at The Palace Cafe on Canal St. You can experience an excellent New Orleans jazz brunch w/out paying exhorbitant prices. And nobody's mentioned cafe' au lait & beignets at Cafe' duMonde. It's a required stop, just so you can say you've been.
Warnings: There are a number of good restaurants in the French Quarter, but there a lot that are tourist traps and that the locals avoid like the plague. Stay away from most places directly on Bourbon (Galatoire's being the major exception). If you go to Mosca's, take CASH. No credit cards accepted. Some places like Dick & Jenny's and Jacques-Imo's don't take reservations except for large parties, so plan your timing w/ those things in mind.
re: NOLAFrank
what else is good on bourbon street? or is it just galatoire's, which if i'm not mistaken is at the very beginning of bourbon right next to canal street or poydras.
i once had a burger cooked under a hubcap at C??? Grill (not to be confused with camellia grill).
re: lowergardendistrict
where is the marigny in relation to new orleans or rather the french quarter?
and is the treme the same as the lower ninth ward?
re: kevin
The Marigny is adjacent to the FQ, immediately to the east (downriver). Cross Esplanade and you're in the Marigny. The main street is called Frenchman--that's where you'll find Adolpho's and a bunch of other bars and restaurants.
The Treme is not at all the same as the Lower 9th ward. The Treme is adjacent to the FQ, across Rampart St. The Lower 9th is a couple of miles downriver from the Quarter, past the Marigny and the Bywater and across the Industrial canal.
re: lowergardendistrict
And the Bywater is the Upper 9th Ward.
I want to toss in Casamento's for a great, traditional oyster loaf on pan bread. They just re-opened on the 12th. Two Sisters on Derbigny is great and on Sundays I like the food, drinks, music and vibe at Bacchanal in By-Water. Make sure to try the Vietnamese restaurants like Ba Mien, Duong Phong, Pho Tau Bay, Tanh Dinh, Nine Roses, or Kims. It may not be Creole or Cajun but it has become very much a part of our food culture and is great. If you want to stick to the more familiar New Orleans foods, all the previous suggestions are right on and there is a cute new place called Ignatius on Magazine Street that serves decent etouffe, gumbo, shrimp creole, jambalaya, etc. Enjoy. New Orleans is amazing.
Galatoire's without question. Order oysters en brochette, oysters rockefellar, hot crabmeat ravigote and whatever else your witer suggests. You will not find this food in any other city in the world. Brigtsen's is also unique to N.O. I have to take exception to Irene's. I have heard many good things, but ate there recently and was thoroughly unimpressed. It was mediocre at best. Bayona is also excellent although the service seems bit iffy recently. Agree with K-Pauls. Palace Cafe brunch varies a little from the old standards and is excellent. Try the crabmeat cheesecake.
This is a HUGE topic, not one that can easily or competently be covered by a few posts to a message board. You need to start with a little background reading & research, then perhaps return to the message board for more narrrowly focused queries and specific post-Katrina restaurant updates...I recommend the following guides to get started:
--Eating New Orleans, From French Quarter Creole Dining to the Perfect Poboy by Pableaux Johnson
--New Orleans Neighborhood Restaurant Guide by Kevin R. Roberts
Thank you all for your recommendations!!
So far, this is my list:
Brigsten - Creole - Oct. 27th
Commander Palace - Oct. 28th
Galatoire - Oct. 29th
30th evening is empty as of now
Casamentos - oysters & seafood
Jaques-imos - deep fried seafood
Coop's - jambalaya
Palace Cafe - Oct 29
I'll continue to fill in the blanks, but thank you all for the great recommendations that enabled me to start reservation now. It is not yet the end of September, but I had a hard time getting Galatoire and Commander Palace's reservation! Galatoire is booked solid on Oct 28, with limited availability on 29th, and Commander Palace has nothing before 8:30pm...
I'm hoping that lunch does not require reservation....:) Truly looking forward to my trip in Nola!
re: lucieluce
Jacques-Imo's isn't open for lunch (and I wouldn't recommend it for dinner). Perhaps you meant Crabby Jack's? I would recommend that place.
None of your lunch options take reservations, so no problem there.
I wouldn't worry about reservations at Galatoire's. You can only get those for the upstairs room. The fun is downstairs, and no reservations are taken there. I would just show up.

In my experience most women enjoy being photographed naked, it depends on timing. If your intentions are straight forward and sincere you shouldn't have any problems. If you are nervous during your approach they might misunderstand your intentions. Be clear and decisive. Don't dither or behave or say anything ambiguous. Take control of the situation. Don't be afraid of rejection, I've been rejected occasionally but many have come back to me a little later and changed their minds.
I think most people go through a similar phase. Don't wait to be inspired, go out and shoot anything and everything! women, trees, mountains, cars, anything! you'll probably shoot a pile of shit but occasionally you will find something worth keeping. Photography isn't a competition, enjoy yourself, shoot for pleasure. Detach yourself from any conventional thought, forget about equipment, don't compare yourself or your circumstance to others, just do your own thing.

New Self-Assessment Network Security Tool Unveiled for Banks
Online system helps IT security staff align security plans, benchmark to other institutions
MILFORD, CT - October 24, 2006 A uniquely powerful self-assessment and security planning tool for financial services institutions was announced today by Perimeter, the only provider of complete e-security on demand. In a twenty-minute online session, the powerful RiskProfileTM system helps IT and technology executives align security plans and spending with the business risks of their institutions, and provides valuable data benchmarking the user's results against other institutions.
The no-obligation service is free through December 31 to help build the largest possible industry database. Initial system templates and processes are tailored to banks and credit unions, including preset, adjustable templates for five types of institutions from the smallest to billion-dollar, multi-branch firms.
A wide range of security and financial services industry experts have co-developed the new planning tool, including Federal and industry regulators from several agencies, outside security professionals, bank security officers and a dozen top security professionals at Perimeter. More than two years in development, the Risk Profile system is built atop industry best practices gleaned from Perimeter's own decade of experience providing e-security to nearly 2,000 financial institutions.
By yearend, RiskProfile is expected to aggregate and assess security processes at more than 1,000 institutions, providing the first industry-wide, statistically significant benchmark for comparison of industry security practices. In 2007, the system will deliver peer-to-peer benchmarking as well as detailed reporting, progress tracking of individual institutional improvements and comparisons to best practices. The program expands to other industries in 2007.
Aligns security needs with business risks
"With hundreds of different security technologies available today, businesses often don't know where to start. As a result they often spend money on the wrong technologies," says Perimeter CEO Brad Miller. "Perimeter has devoted thousands of man-hours to design a tool that looks first at the threats in order of importance and then prioritizes network security efforts to minimize those threats," Miller says. This objective, benchmark-oriented tool helps financial institutions spend their security budgets more wisely and appropriately, aligning dollars directly with optimum business risk reduction.
"Too many networks are secured 'backwards,' focused first on technologies and second on business risks those technologies are mitigating," says Miller. Risk Profile works in reverse of most risk assessments by ranking an institution's business processes according to their importance to the business and its vulnerability to financial, regulatory, and reputational impact. The system profiles appropriate risk mitigation solutions and scores business processes on their current level of mitigation. It shows the actual percentage of total organizational risk each business process accounts for, offers prioritized recommendations to mitigate risk, and indicates where procedure changes might help.
"RiskProfile provides an unprecedented snapshot of what technologies and risk mitigation strategies are in use across the industry," says Kevin Prince, Perimeter's Chief Security Officer. "We will look at this information in aggregate and share it from time to time with the industry. Confidentiality of all respondent data is of course guaranteed by Perimeter's privacy policies."
Basic profile offered for free
"Early enthusiastic response to the RiskProfile system has been exciting," says CEO Miller, with nearly 500 institutions conducting self-assessments and populating the system's database in less than sixty days of beta testing. To build the industry's first comprehensive database, Perimeter is waiving the cost of initial self-assessments. Included in the no-charge assessment is a free RiskProfile report and benchmarking information as it becomes available. Next year, an enhanced system will deliver ongoing monitoring, performance comparisons, and granular peer-to-peer benchmarking and analysis for a fee.

Pt 3. Mauna Kea Summit and Sunset at 14,000′
Thanks for stopping by! If you missed parts one and two, read them here!
Green Sands Beach & The Manta Ray Dive Both were pretty awesome and the dive was an experience of a life time. Here's the vid
Mauna Kea Summit
Sunday was a simple day, thankfully. We had planned to hit up some waterfalls early in the morning but we were SO tired after last nights dive with the Mantas!
Luckily, one of the master divers from last night's dive convinced Kathryn that we had to go to the summit to see sunset and that the extra 4000′ made a huge difference. (she needed convincing of that) so we swapped our POS Aveo for Wrangler Sport.
Kathryn got us lost on the way out to Mauna Kea. I blame it on her POS GPS phone! I was clearly at a T intersection and made a distinct right hand turn- the GPS said to keep going! What the hell? I didn't even get a "rerouting!" I'm never trusting any phone but my iPhone again.
At the summit we drove around to all the keks. Kathryn found out what its like to exert yourself at 14,000′, she said her legs felt like lead and she became light headed. I've been up this high before and could push push through the sensation, but Kathryn, she was loopy as ever!
For those of you that don't know, Mauna Kea is a 14,000′ volcano and the highest peak in the Pacific Basin. The red soil from the volcano.
This video tells the rest of the story and has a time lapse of our sunset. It was very pretty and I will visit here again the next time I'm on island.
Thanks for reading! These three days really are the best birthday I've had in 26 yrs. It was so much fun and it was something I really needed. Next year I'll have to book a trip to the moon to beat this birthday trip!

My Best Birthday in 26 Years pt 1 Green Sands Beach
I would take an experience over a thousand drunk birthday celebrations. Thats why, for my birthday this year, instead of a trip to the bar or to lame-ol' Waikiki I booked a trip to the Big Island, Hawaii for a mini-adventure. Well, I didn't book it- Kathryn did. Lucky for her, too, 'cause if I were writing the itinerary we'd have spent three nights sleeping in the jeep and careening around the island non-stop surviving on Red Bull, Power Bars, and potato chips. Lucky for us both, she made a great itinerary.
We hit the ground running at 8:30AM, ran over the Hertz and found out that I couldn't rent a car- my license expired! thanks a lot Nevada. So, Kathryn hopped behind the wheel of our piece of shit Aveo and we sped off to South Point.
From where we parked we opted to hug the coast for 2.5-3 miles until we ended up at Papakolea Beach. Also known as Green Sands Beach. Green Sands beach is one of only two in the world. The other beach is on the Galapagos Islands. The Green Sand gets its color from the Olivine cinder cone that forms the back wall of the bay.
Along the way we explored some awesome tide pools, came across a grave site, and threw some Lava Rock into the ocean. See the gallery below.
Coming soon- My Best Birthday in 26 Years pt 2 Manta Ray Dive : here's a preview
