NIGHT OF BROKEN GLASS KRISTALLNACHT REMEMBRANCE11/6JOIN TAYLOR CULIJA FOR THE NIGHT OF GLASS KRSTALLNACHT REMEMBRANCE IS THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 6TH, 7:15 AT THE JEWISH EDUCATION ALLIANCE IN SAVANNAH. The Night of Broken Glass Kristallnacht Remembrance November 6th at 7:15pm at the Jewish Educational Alliance in Savannah Kristallnacht was a series of coordinated attacks against Jews throughout Nazi Germany and Austria on 9–10 November 1938, and became recognized as "the dress rehearsal for the Holocaust". The name Kristallnacht (Night of Broken Glass) comes from the shards of broken glass that littered the streets after 7500 Jewish-owned stores and buildings, and 267 synagogues had their windows smashed and destroyed. Kristallnacht is especially relevant today as a reminder to stand up against the religious persecution that is currently occurring in Europe against the Jews and against the Christian populations in Muslim ruled nations. The keynote speaker for the evening will be Taylor Culjan; Holocaust educator, as well as the English Department Chair at St. Vincent's Academy, Savannah. This past July, Mrs. Culjan attended The Holocaust and Jewish Resistance Teachers' Program - an intensive three week summer learning and living experience in Washington, DC, Poland, Germany and the Czech Republic for U.S. secondary school teachers who are committed to teaching about the Holocaust and Jewish resistance in their classes upon completion of the program. This special program is organized by the American Gathering of Holocaust Survivors and their Descendants. Mrs. Culjan was nominated, and then accepted by this prestigious group, with the aim of furthering her understanding of, and expanding her personal exposure to the horrors of the Shoa concentration and death camps in Europe. Funding for her trip was provided locally by the Matthew Cranman Memorial Fund. Mrs. Culjan will incorporate her experiences from this trip into her discussion of the events of Kirstallnacht and the meaning of this critical night in history. In addition, the program will include local middle school, high school and University student art exhibits, as well as songs, musical interludes and readings from actual diaries of survivors. The Kristallnacht Remembrance is Free and open to the public to people of all faiths. Please come to support the community, our students, and take this opportunity to learn.

Junior Achievement and Colonial Group Announce Laureates for 15th Annual Savannah Business Hall of Fame on November 10 This year's event will honor Joe Buck and Gene Cartledge as 2014 Savannah Business Hall of Fame Inductees SAVANNAH, Ga. – Junior Achievement of Georgia-Coastal Region is pleased to announce the names of the laureates for the 15th annual Savannah Business Hall of Fame being held on Monday, November 10, at the Savannah International Trade and Convention Center. This year's honorees are Dr. Joseph A. Buck and Eugene Cartledge. Junior Achievement (JA), along with Colonial Group, will host this year's Savannah Business Hall of Fame where inductees will be honored for their business accomplishments as well as their extensive contributions to the community. A leader in education for our community with his commitment to the educational needs of students, Dr. Joe Buck has been the Savannah-Chatham County School Board President since 2006. As an administrator for almost 40 years at Armstrong State University, he built valuable relationships between the university and the community before retiring in 2006 as vice president of student affairs. He also assisted in the execution of two key leadership programs, Leadership Savannah and Leadership Georgia, which help professionals gain leadership skills and a greater understanding of their community. Mr. Eugene Cartledge, a national business leader and advocate for young children, decided to make his home in Savannah after spending much of his career in Virginia and New York. As former president of Union Camp, the largest paper manufacturer in the United States, Cartledge is credited with leading the company through its largest expansion ever and supporting the development of The Landings. He also serves or has served as the director on the boards of many notable companies including Delta Airlines and Sunoco, hosts multiple charitable events at his home and has served on the Endowment Board of Bethesda Academy for the past six years. According to Johnathon Barrett, vice president of JA of Georgia, this event provides a representation of what it takes to be successful to students. "These inductees demonstrate to our children that the giving of one's self is a large part of being successful," he said. "In the words of Calvin Coolidge, 'No person was ever honored for what he received. Honor has been the reward for what he gave.' I think our inductees are great testaments to that philosophy, giving back to the Savannah community and leaving a positive impression on the lives of young people." The Savannah Business Hall of Fame is Savannah's premier black tie business event. The gala will be held at the Savannah International Trade and Convention Center on Monday, November 10, beginning at 6 p.m. with a cocktail reception, featuring an upscale silent auction.

CPR SEEKS HELP FOR HEARTWORM POSITIVE DOGS TFNCOASTAL PET RESCUE IS SEEKING DONATIONS FOR HEARTWORM POSITIVE DOG TREATMENTS. It's been a long year for Coastal Pet Rescue, and with 99 canine intakes this year, it's only going to be longer. So far, Coastal Pet Rescue has treated five canines for heartworms, and two more are still awaiting their turn, but help is urgently needed to fund the medical care. Although heartworms are preventable thanks to monthly medications, many of the dogs Coastal Pet Rescue rescues have not been kept current - If ever at all - on the prevention, and thus need the expensive treatments. Treatments can run $600 to $1200 depending upon the severity of the infestation, and since Coastal Pet Rescue does not believe in passing on the excessive medical bills for adopters and instead charges only a flat $150 adoption fee, there's a lot left to cover. Donations may be made online at coastalpetrescue.org/donate or by mail to Coastal Pet Rescue, PO Box 30462, Savannah, GA 31410.

Any items placed out off-schedule will also be removed for a fee. Sanitation calendar magnets were distributed to residents at the start of the year. The calendars can also be downloaded online at savannahga.gov/sanitation. Bulk item collection is a continued service offered by City of Savannah Sanitation to retrieve and dispose of large items placed out for collection by residents during a one-week period each month. Bulk items include most large household goods, including discarded furniture and appliances. Items that will NOT be collected during bulk item pickup include yard waste, construction material, hazardous materials and liquid waste.

Dr. Caroline Hartley
PhD Title:
PhD Abstract:
A novel algorithm for the detection of the discontinuous bursts of activity in the preterm EEG is developed and the temporal structure of burst occurrence, size and duration are assessed. The dynamics are shown to exhibit long-range temporal correlations (LRTCs) indicating a temporal complexity within early brain activity not previously appreciated. This result is replicated in a larger population of preterm children and the effect of gestational age and postnatal age on the degree of LRTCs is examined.
A possible mechanism underlying the generation of burst activity that exhibits LRTCs is investigated in a stochastic excitatory neural network model. It is shown that burst dynamics occur in the model when there is a balance between the activity of an individual neuron and the number of neurons it in turn activates. Furthermore, it is shown that correlations in the temporal statistics of these bursts exist over a wide range and extend across an infinite range (i.e. true LRTCs) in the limit of system size. The behaviour of the model with respect to different network topologies is also investigated.
In summary, it is shown that complex temporal dynamics exist even in early brain activity and such dynamics can be observed in a simple model. In light of this, the evidence that the brain exhibits self-organised criticality - a theoretical framework suggested by previous authors as an explanation for LRTCs in a systems dynamics - is discussed. Overall, the observation of complex temporal structure of activity in the early developing brain suggests that the temporal organisation of this activity may play an important developmental role. This thesis therefore provides strong motivation for future work in this area.

Hi Phillip,Since Nikon is currently producing lenses without built-in AF motors (eg. 105mm f/2D DC, 135mm f/2D DC, 180mm f/2.8D, 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6D, etc....) I think that AF motors will continue to be included in the Prosumer and Pro bodies for at least the next few generations of bodies. I would suspect that when the time comes, the Prosumer bodies will lose the built in AF motor a few generations before the Pro bodies.Remember that Nikon has been very good about maintaining backward compatibility.Good Luck and Enjoy your Nikons!
Best Regards,Marty

Repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell Policy Takes Effect
If you woke up this morning and the air smelled a little gayer, but also a touch safer, it wasn't thanks to the Broadway show tunes that lulled you to sleep last night. More likely, it was because as of 12:01 this morning, the policy known as Don't Ask, Don't Tell was formally consigned to the dustbin of irrationally prejudiced history.
Turns out the moral arc of the universe is long, but it bends toward fabulousness…
The 18-year-old "don't ask, don't tell" policy officially ended at midnight and with it the discharges that removed more than 13,000 men and women from the military under the old ban on openly gay troops. To mark the historic change, gay rights groups are planning celebrations across the country while Defense Secretary Leon E. Panetta and Adm. Mike Mullen, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, will usher in the new era at a Pentagon news conference.
The other side will be heard, too: Elaine Donnelly, a longtime opponent of allowing gay men and lesbians to serve openly in the armed forces, has already said that "as of Tuesday the commander in chief will own the San Francisco military he has created." Two top Republicans on the House Armed Services Committee — the chairman, Representative Howard P. McKeon of California, and Representative Joe Wilson of South Carolina — have asked the Pentagon to delay the new policy, saying commanders in the field are not ready. But the Pentagon has moved on.
I have so many questions about this "San Francisco military" and the "Rainbow Warriors" who may now serve openly. Will feather boas become mandatory accessories to the Army Combat Uniform? Will the score to La Cage aux Folles replace morning reveille? Will nefarious San Francisco values displace the martial virtues that keep us safe? A letter sent by top commanders to U.S. Army soldiers provides some guidance…
For over 236 years, the U.S. Army has been an extraordinary force for good in the world. Our Soldiers are the most agile, adaptable and capable warriors in history — and we are ready for this change…
Accordingly, we expect all personnel to follow our Values by implementing the repeal fully, fairly and in accordance with policy guidance. It is the duty of all personnel to treat each other with dignity and respect, while maintaining good order and discipline throughout our ranks. Doing so, will help the U.S. Army remain the Strength of the Nation.
Sounds like business as usual. Except now, when gay soldiers do the difficult work of defending Congressmen McKeon and Wilson's rights to be petty and bigoted brats, they can do so while being true to themselves. Progress.

How to Make Any Random Statement an Argument Against DADT
So, we all obviously knew that after news got around that Barack Obama was going to mention that maybe gay soldiers shouldn't be fired for being gay soldiers, all kinds of Yes, let's continue persecuting gay people! people were going to come out of the woodwork. Even though we knew it, it still sucks to actually have to deal with them.
Case in point: Here's Elaine Donnelly — head of the Center for Military Readiness and outspoken anti-gay-person person — explaining, through enhanced-interrogationed logic, why Abu Ghraib actually translates to "No Homo"…
We all support women in the military.
First of all, right out of the gate, I wouldn't bet my paycheck that that's true. But, okay, let's just pretend…
However, [former Clinton adviser Richard Socarides] says that everything has been going on just fine without incident. Umm, what was that Abu Ghraib scandal all about?
Hrrrmmmm… Let's see. I thought it was about fearfulness, the demonizing of an unfamiliar culture, and a Nuremberg-esque loss of morality in the face of blind authority. But I have a feeling that you're going to say something different…
It started out as misconduct between men and women and then it steadily deteriorated into abuse of prisoners. The common denominator is lack of discipline.
So, gay people kill discipline in heterosexuals? Are there gay anti-discipline fungal spores? That kind of makes sense. Oh, wait. No. No it doesn't at all…
Once you break down discipline, good order and discipline and morale, everything that's required for unit cohesion, you undermine the culture and the strength of the armed forces.
Well, yes, but… What?
This man obviously doesn't get that.
This man (<—me) obviously doesn't get that either. Because I don't see what any of this has to do with gay people not being fired from the military for being gay people. How is this an argument against DADT? Is there some data somewhere that shows that gay people are somehow less disciplined that straight people? If there is, then I have some issues with that data, because that data is kind of a bigot.

A sell out crowd turned out for the annual Mudhead Racing Seminar to listen, laugh and learn with rules guru Dave Perry. His quadrennial visit gave racers a chance to examine the changes in the new rule book and to discuss how to use them for tactical advantage on the race course. Dave's entertaining presentation covered the nuances of rule interpretation and the handful of language changes that will affect the race course this summer. He ended the night with questions from the audience and stayed until the last few were drained of their curiosity. Now it's on to the race course to apply what was learned. Wednesday night racing begins May 22nd.

Kansas City is one of the best sports towns in the country, and KC Kingdom has a lot of fun bringing you news from around the area for our professional and collegiate teams.
Few fans are as passionate about their teams than Kansas City fans, whether it is making Arrowhead Stadium the loudest outside venue in the world, or filling up Sporting Park each match, or being Royal in Kauffman Stadium. The area also supports three of the most passionate college fan bases in the country.
Each morning, we will try to bring you some news from around our sports kingdom, in addition to the news, information, editorials, and analysis KC Kingdom already provides.
We may also pass along an interesting post or two from around the world-wide web, just for fun.
We hope enjoy the news from Around The Kingdom. Happy reading!
Now that GM John Dorsey has been in charge of the Chiefs for two years, a number of pundits are attempting to suss out his team-building philosophy. SI.com's Greg Bedard, who writes for the Monday Morning Quarterback column, has an interesting article where he asks Dorsey about his approach.
Arrowhead Addict's Ben Nielsen looks at Bedard's story, and expands upon the implications of Dorsey's choice to turn down offers to move back in the 2014 draft:
Much of Dorsey's draft plan has been a slap in the face to the common perception of his team. Chiefs need a wide receiver in the deepest wide receiver draft in years? Dorsey draft zero wide receivers. Chiefs need depth and more draft picks? Dorsey declines trade offers for more draft picks.
Royals fans have been calling for struggling 3B Mike Moustakas to get sent down to Omaha for nearly a month. Now that the Royals have finally made the move, Kings of Kauffman's David Hill wonders whether the team has waited so long that it has destroyed Moustakas' confidence.
Meanwhile, The Kansas City Star's Sam Mellinger asserts that the team needs to stop sweating the small stuff and grow up.
Be sure to check out KC Kingdom throughout the day for news on the Chiefs, Royals, Sporting KC, Tigers, Wildcats, and Jayhawks.

Rare Moon Mineral Found On Earth
Soulskill posted more than 2 years ago | from the made-in-wisconsin dept.64
sciencehabit writes "A mineral previously known only from moon rocks and lunar meteorites has now been found on Earth. Researchers discovered the substance — dubbed tranquillityite after the Sea of Tranquility, where Apollo 11 astronauts landed on the Moon in July 1969— at six sites in Western Australia (abstract). The mineral occurs only in minuscule amounts and has no economic value, but scientists say it could be used for age-dating the rocks in which it occurs."

Desk1 8 Pro / Desk2 7 Home Prem / Laptop 8.1 Pro all 64bit
Query re UAC / CPU
Not strictly for this forum but I have a friends machine a custom built desktop with an Intel E4500 Duo core 2GB RAM on an Intel D945GCNL board running Vista Home Premium 32bit SP2 to tidy up for her. It is running extremely slowly and I am being blocked at every turn to get this thing going for her.
Now I cannot get this damn machine to change the UAC controls for her to be the admin it constantly defaults admin to her son. I tried all of Brink's suggestions from the Vista forum (including the regedit which didn't show up as the tutorial showed) but no go. It may be a virus or something and also her son has installed two AV suites on it plus multiple other stuff that I personally would not use.
I was wondering if I put in a new drive and install 7 will the CPU support it. I have checked out the Intel site (and Google) but it makes no mention of this model - the mobo does that I do know. As a matter of interest the hard drive seems to be constantly "working" even though when not being "used".
Can someone help me please with this before I go stir crazy.

Rewind: Todd Gurley unable to jump to top of Heisman race
- 1:02 pm Monday, September 29th, 2014 by Chip Towers
1. Todd Gurley's 285-yard, two-touchdown, one-hurdle performance against Tennessee this past Saturday was incredible to witness. But it didn't necessarily jump-start his Heisman Trophy chances as much some people predicted.
Scanning the web Monday morning, it appears Gurley is still a secondary choice in most Heisman polls to Oregon's Marcus Mariota. In fact, I could find Gurley moving up to No. 1 in just one publication that does a weekly Heisman watch and that was Newsday. ESPN still had him No. 2, as did USA Today and CBS Sports. Bleacher Report, for what it's worth, still has [More]
Ten@10: Once again, injuries becoming part of Bulldogs' storyline
- 9:49 am Tuesday, August 5th, 2014 by Chip Towers
1. Georgia is just four days into preseason camp and injuries are starting to become part of the 2014 storyline. The latest name added to the list is Shattle Fenteng.
Fenteng, a junior college transfer from Hutchinson Community College, was having his shoulder and arm attended to by head trainer Ron Courson early in Monday's practice before leaving Woodruff Practice Fields for the day. UGA was unable to supply an injury update after the 90-minute workout and the hope is that there will be one at some point Tuesday.
UPDATE: Defensive coordinator Jeremy Pruitt says Fenteng's injury [More]
Q&A: J.J. Green plans on coming through for Dogs on defense
- 11:44 am Friday, March 21st, 2014 by Chip Towers
ATHENS – Georgia's J.J. Green is one of those delightful young men you simply enjoy running across every now and then in this business.
College football and the entitlement and idolatry that comes with it can sometimes rob these elite athletes of their joy, or at least that which they reveal to reporters. That's definitely not the case with Green.
It's evident that he is simply happy to be where he is and doing what he does. At the moment that's play defensive back for the Bulldogs.
You'll recall that Green was asked to play tailback last season, and he did it well. [More]
Q&A: UGA's Pruitt more interested in finding players than teaching schemes
- 12:37 pm Tuesday, March 11th, 2014 by Chip Towers
ATHENS – The Georgia Bulldogs open spring practice one week from today. When they do, all eyes are going to be on the defensive side of the ball.
Defense — along with a ridiculous number of injuries — is why Georgia lost five games last season. And for the first time in 50 years, the Bulldogs will be entering a spring with a totally new defensive coaching staff.
Georgia got more than a little fortunate when it landed Jeremy Pruitt from Florida State to coordinate the defense. Not only did the Seminoles win the national championship, but they also led the nation [More]
Georgia holds recruiting class together despite coaching turnover
- 12:22 pm Thursday, February 6th, 2014 by Chip Towers
After Todd Grantham abruptly left Georgia to go to work for Bobby Petrino and the Bulldogs' other defensive assistants soon followed with departures, several of the Bulldogs' major recruiting prospects were left confused. These people were their primary contacts at UGA for the past year or so. Now they were gone. What were they to do?
To the Bulldogs' credit, all of their previous commitments ended up signing with UGA on national signing day. But that's as much a testament to the pragmatism of prospects such as Lorenzo Carter and Lamont Galliard as it was to Georgia's dogged pursuit.
According to coachesbythenumbers.com, [More]
Did Georgia's defense get better as result of Grantham's departure?
- 11:01 am Friday, January 31st, 2014 by Chip Towers
ATHENS — The Bulldogs ended up completely rebuilding their defensive staff after coordinator Todd Grantham flew the coop for more money and less challenge at Louisville. But it's hard to look at what they've done since then and not say they're better off.
They lost a defensive coordinator who had given up more points and yards than any Georgia coach in decades and replaced him with Jeremy Pruitt, the architect of the nation's No. 1 defense on the national championship team. Since then the Bulldogs have added linebackers coach Kevin Sherrer, who earned two national championship rings as an assistant at [More]
Jeremy Pruitt was Bulldogs' first and only choice, hence swift hire
- 12:10 pm Wednesday, January 15th, 2014 by Chip Towers
It's been interesting to read the some accounts of what happened during Georgia's brief search for a defensive coordinator. Some would have you believe the Bulldogs had this intense back-and-forth negotiation with Alabama's Kirby Smart before then turning their attention to Jeremy Pruitt.
Logic and the timeline as outlined by coach Mark Richt on Tuesday indicate that scenario could not be further from the truth. For better or worse, Jeremy Pruitt was Georgia's first and only choice.
Think about it. At the earliest, it would have been Sunday before Mark Richt could have turned his attention to hiring a replacement for Todd [More]
Fans have let Georgia AD McGarity know how they feel
- 6:23 pm Wednesday, January 8th, 2014 by Chip Towers
Q&A WITH GEORGIA AD GREG McGARITY, PART II
I had a sit-down interview with Greg McGarity earlier this week. We talked about a myriad of topics, but primarily about football. I filed a Q&A based on that interview that's running on MyAJC.com and Thursday's print editions of the newspaper. But I wasn't able to include it all.
Some of our conversation might not have risen to the level of public interest, but I'll include the bulk of it here that did not make the cut for the premium. As always, I'm interested in getting the feedback of readers and finding out how [More]

After the collective bargaining agreement between NBA players and owners expires on June 30, there may be a prolonged work stoppage — to the point where the entire 2011-12 NBA season gets cancelled. Also, rumors abound that players may want to play in Europe and elsewhere during the hiatus, along with further speculation that the NBA may try to prevent them from doing so. Even five-time NBA champ Kobe Bryant has tossed this idea around with reporters.
Is Bucks forward Ersan Ilyasova going to be the first to put the legality of leaving for Europe to the test? According to the Basketball Post
The Turkish portal milliyet.com.tr has first reported today, April the 20th, that powerhouse Fenerbahçe Ülker is inching closer to reaching an agreement with stretch-four and post defender Ersan Ilyasova in order to count with the player's services for next season.
Ilyasova is under contract with the NBA's Milwaukee Bucks for one more season, set to earn $2.5 million dollars in salaries next year. The report doesn't state if the agreement is tied to a lockout taking place in the Association or if Ilyasova will try to force his way out of Milwaukee regardless of the work stoppage.
Unless there is a work stoppage, getting Ilyasova under contract should require a buyout. On the other hand, if there is a lockout of any length or kind, it is hard to imagine that the NBA owners could reasonably expect to enforce 'binding' contracts while at the same time halting salaries and shuttering work facilities.
To make matters worse, Ersan didn't end the season with glowing reviews about the 2010-11 season, during which he averaged 9.5 points, 6.1 rebounds, and 0.9 steals per game in 25.1 minutes of playing time. In his post-season quotes, Ilyasova noted that
We got a lot of new guys on our team. They all had to learn our system, our plays. Last year, we played more together. We shared the ball more than this year. This was one of the keys to success last year.
I didn't get a lot of minutes that I was expecting from last year. It's not my decision – it's Coach's decision, from his standpoint, how he sees the rotation.
Given those thoughts, it doesn't seem unrealistic that Ilyasova may want to ply his trade elsewhere. Over the coming weeks, Ilyasova's rumored deal may be the first in a long line of verbal agreements between NBA players and teams from around the globe. Don't expect those deals to get signed, though, until an actual lockout kicks in during the month of July.
