Resource Workforce Center opens in Henrico
Community leaders and elected officials from across the region gathered in eastern Henrico Sept. 24 to celebrate the opening of a new resource center for job-seekers that is the first of its kind in Central Virginia.
The Resource Workforce Center, located just off Nine Mile Road at 121 Cedar Fork Road, is the first such center inthe area to serve both adults and older youth.
Members of the federally funded Resource Workforce Investment Board, which works to increase private sector employment opportunities, joined in cutting the ribbon to mark the official opening and followed up with tours and information sessions led by center staff and community partners such as the Community College Workforce Alliance, Job Corps, Virginia Employment Commission, and Senior Connections.
"It's such a beautiful day," exulted James Holland of the Chesterfield County Board of Supervisors, chairman of the resource consortium of local elected officials, as he prepared to cut the ribbon at the entrance to the center. "We're having class outside!"
In addition to serving as a one-stop job-shopping resource for the unemployed, disadvantaged adults and older youth, said Holland, the center will also assist the underemployed. "You may have a job," he noted. "But do you have a career?"
The center will help entrepreneurs as well, through a program known as resource business solutions that asks the leadership from various companies, "What do you need to expand?" Among the companies that have expressed interest in such assistance are a growing food supply company and a railroad company losing workers to retirement.
But "first and foremost," said Holland, "[the center] will offer those who come a friendly face."
Deborah Wickham, chairman of the Resource Workforce Investment Board, noted that a great deal of research has gone into locating centers where they can best serve the more than one million citizens in the area's member jurisdictions, which include the counties of Charles City, Chesterfield, Goochland, Hanover, Henrico, New Kent, Powhatan as well as the City of Richmond. One of three area workforce centers (the others are in Chesterfield County and South Richmond, with a fourth opening soon near downtown Richmond), the 20,000 square-foot center replaces one less than half its size on Williamsburg Road.
"Eastern Richmond and Henrico contain some of the highest concentrations of poverty in our region," Holland pointed out, "and so we are opening this center where it is most needed."
Representatives of various organizations began their tours in the reception area, which features kiosks for easy registration and space for one or more police officers on site. Among features of the dedicated space for youth are computer labs and stations for resume writing, as well as facilities housing the Resource Youth Network's out-of-school program, the GOALS Institute.
The converted building, formerly a Verizon call center, also boasts a large conference room, a resource room that can be used to access the internet for job searches, and access to printers and faxes for submitting job applications and resumes. Center staff offer job seeker services such as resume reviews, skills assessment, career counseling, mock interviews, and for individuals who qualify, intensive training that may include free tuition to local educational institutions.
"It's all about connecting people with partnerships and working together," said Holland. "It will come to fruition."
Frank Thornton of the Henrico County Board of Supervisors, whose Fairfield District includes the new center, described similar visions for the site as he prepared for the ribbon-cutting. "This will be a venue of collegiality," Thornton said. "Of service to our people."
"You've heard of no wine before its time?" he asked. "Our time has arrived."
Snipping the ribbon, Holland added emphasis with a flourish and triumphantly held the scissors aloft.
"It's open!" announced Holland. "Go forth and prosper!"

I'm looking for some direction. I have a windshield bracket from a '53 MG that fits the contour of the cowl. However after the bodywork was completed the bracket has a gap (1/8-3/16) along the curvature between the mounting points. My hope is to build up the edges of the bracket and grind a slightly new profile to match the cowl. The bracket is brass. I have a 180 mig w/ gas setup. What is the best process for this mod? I have read about silver solder, silicon brass wire, etc. which leads to my next question, can all these materials be chromed?
This is purely a cosmetic modification.

Thank you for the suggestion. Can you recommend a specific brazing rod to use for this application? Any brazing tips you could give would be much appreciated as I have never brazed.
Thanks- Mark
Well, most chroming shps have this service, as they are always filling bumpers and such. Being that you've never brazed, its probably NOT a good idea to start now, as you will likely destroy the piece
This may sound simplistic...
but why not just redo the bodywork so that it matches the original contour??
thus eliminating the need to modify and replate the windshield frame
the MG TD-TF do not have very complex cowl curvature anyway... (was a transitional year so could be either)
are you sure that the gap would not be taken up by a new windshield post pad/gasket anyway?? having owned a couple of T series midgets as well as other cars with wood framed bodies... they are not built to high precision... things may very well "snug up" when you assemble and draw fasteners tight..

Israel Bombs Military Target Outside Damascus, Syria Says
Originally published on Wed January 30, 2013 7:38 pm
Israel's air force bombed a military facility in western Syria, the Syrian media said Wednesday, a development that could further complicate the already volatile conditions in the region.
Israel did not confirm or deny the report. But The Associated Press, citing "regional security officials," said Israel believed that Syria was sending weapons to its ally Hezbollah in neighboring Lebanon.
Syria's state-run SANA news agency denied reports that a truck convoy was bombed. It said the Israelis hit a scientific research center used by the military northwest of Damascus. Two workers were killed and five were injured in the dawn attack, SANA added.
According to the AP, the Israelis are concerned that Syrian President Bashar Assad may pass on chemical weapons or anti-aircraft missiles to Hezbollah, the dominant power in Lebanon, which has frequently clashed with Israel.
Israel and Syria have never made peace, but direct military confrontations have been rare since the 1973 Arab-Israeli war.
The last Israeli airstrike in Syria was in 2007, when Israel bombed what it believed was a secret nuclear reactor. Syria has denied that the building was a nuclear facility.
In that 2007 attack and earlier ones, the Israelis carried out single strikes and did not wage a broader military campaign. Syria, in turn, did not respond directly to Israel but is widely seen as working through Hezbollah.
Israel has been closely monitoring the uprising and civil war in Syria since it began nearly two years ago, but has not been directly involved.
We plan to update this post when more information becomes available.

Heist: Who Stole the American Dream?
Heist: Who Stole the American Dream? reveals how American corporations orchestrated the dismantling of middle-class prosperity through rampant deregulation, the outsourcing of jobs, and tax policies favoring businesses and the wealthy. The collapse of the U.S. economy is the result of conscious choices made over thirty five years by a small group: leaders of corporations and their elected allies, and the biggest lobbying interest in Washington, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. To these individuals, the collapse is not a catastrophe, but rather the planned outcome of their long, patient work. For the rest of the country, it is merely the biggest heist in American history.

Only got to page 32, but gotta add mine........
YMBAWI: your company installs a new time clock that is fingerprint operated, and you have to use a pin pad instead because it won't read your prints
YMBAWI: your changing your 1 yo daughters diaper and you wonder if her diaper rash cream will soothe the flash burn on your arm (between the bottom of your shirt sleeve and top of glove, inside left arm)
YMBAWI: the door bell rings at 3:22am, because your buddies were rock crawlin and broke the jeep again and need you to weld it back together so they can get to work in the morning, or you have to put the TB275 and some 6011 in the truck to go fix the jeep broke on the rock/in the mud
YMBAWI: your wife buys a beautiful brand new pair of red wing boots, but you have her take them back because they have laces, (and we all know laces get expensive)

You might be a welder if your daughter hugs you and tells you that you smell like metal.

You might be a weldor if....
You clean stainless with acetone wearing your welding gloves and go to tack your parts together and spontaneously start your whole hand on fire... Not once but three times.

Title: I thought they were supposed to be mammals
Date: January 14, 2005
Summary: Beaver and Steve are lost at sea, and Steve ruins their one chance of salvation.
Onomatopoeias used: "PFFFSHT!", "FKOOSH!", "FOOOOOSH!"
"Fin" style: Written on a message in a bottle.
Number of panels: 10
Panel 1
Beaver and Steve sit in a yellow raft, out in the middle of a large body of water. Beaver lounges with his hand in the water. Both Beaver and Steve are stubbly.
Panel 2
Beaver takes his hand out of the water.
Beaver: "I can't take it much longer! We've been adrift for 3 days now and there's nothing but water as far as the eye can see!"
Panel 3
A dolphin surfaces and adresses Beaver and Steve.
Dolphin: "I say, do you fellers need any help?"
Steve: "A Dolphin! And I think it's trying to tell us something!"
Panel 4
Dolphin: "Yes! I can lead you to a tropical island paradise inhabited only by beautiful maidens. It's not far!"
Steve starts to get visibly angry.
Steve: "Stupid clown of the sea! It's laughing at us!"
Panel 5
Steve lunges at the surprised dolphin.
Steve: "YAAAA!"
Panel 6
The dolphin jumps out of the water, all except his tail. He PFFFSHT!'s gas into Steve's face.
Steve: "AKH! GAS!"
Panel 7
The dolphin, now sporting an orange jet-pack, FKOOSH!'s into the air.
Dolphin: "Time for this bird to fly!"
Panel 8
The dolphin FOOOOOSH's off to the right, as Steve climbs back into the raft. He stares nervously at Beaver.
Panel 9
Steve, still dripping, continues to stare at Beaver.
Panel 10
Steve, no longer dripping, says something.
Steve: "I spy, with my little eye, something beginning with 'W' "
Fun Facts
- Steve is quite likely referring to "Water" in the last frame.
- A new breed of dolphins apparently has jetpacks and can spray blinding gas at its enemies.
- This isn't the last time Beaver and Steve are trapped in the middle of the sea in a life raft.
- The title refers to a common fact which states that although dolphins live in the water, they are mammals, not fish. And then this comic turns it all upside down, making a dolphin refer to himself as 'bird'. Hooray!

Kosher Snacks
|Grilled Chocolate Sandwiches
by Alice Medrich, Sinfully Easy Delicious Desserts
Crusty, hot, and melty chocolate sandwiches make a decadent snack, but cut into daintier portions and nestled with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, they make a dynamite dessert for company. They're fun too.
Unsalted butter
Butter one side of each slice of bread generously. In a skillet big enough to hold them, cook the slices butter side down over medium heat, just until pale gold on one side. Cover two of the slices with chocolate. Flip a naked slice on top, butter side up. Cook, turning the sandwiches as necessary, until the chocolate is softened and the sandwiches are browned on both sides.
Serve immediately, sprinkled with a pinch of sea salt or a dusting of cinnamon sugar, if you like.
Yield: Makes 2 sandwiches
Recipes: Snacks (or Dessert), Chocolate Sandwiches, Dairy, Kosher

wowhorse: best wishes for fine results with your new camera. Enjoy it.
jani: one would NOT use the same lens on a 20D that one would use on a 1Ds if one wanted the same field of view, and in those circumstances the manner in which both you and Nikon are defining resolution doesn't hold up. There is much material on definition of resolution both on the L-L website and in other literature. It indicates "resolution" is much more complicated than either of us are discussing here.
pom: as I mentioned, I have not noticed in my work the kind of red banding in black areas that you have brought to our attention, nor did any of the websites that reviewed the 1Ds when it first hit the market mention such an issue (e.g. Luminous Landscape, Imaging Resource and dpReview to name three of the main ones). If you use the same lighting and lighting techniques for capturing the same clothing with other digital cameras and they did not produce this phenominon, perhaps you should discuss the issue with Canon and let them check the camera unless they come up with some cogent reason for it - which would really be interesting to know about.

Jonathan, you are generally correct that if it looks too good to be true it is and your advice is a timely call to action. But before assuming "wowhorse" has been had, perhaps he should first call the dealer and make sure that he will be receiving every piece that is normally supposed to be "in the box" AND that the equipment is neither USED nor a DEMONSTRATOR AND that USA WARRANTIES are included, then if he finds trouble, he should cancel the transaction.
Did you look at the link I posted? expresscameras.com is a totally sleazy scam outfit. I'm not assuming anything; read their reviews and you'll find nobody that has done business with them has anything good to say about them. And calling them is a waste of time, they're a bunch of liars. Read their reviews.

It's under a warranty from the company I bought it from 2nd hand, not Canon, I doubt they will agree that there is enough of a problem to warrant a chip replacement costing more than I paid for the camera. Bugger!

I'm also concerned, when it comes to the Rebel XT, with changing f-stops because I'm so used to spinning a dial, and it seems pretty laborious from the review on this website. Then again, I don't know the difference in how the Nikon D70 performs when it comes to changing apertures.

If you will be shooting weddings then keep in mind that you will need a backup camera as well. The XT is a bit too small to hang pro level lenses from, unless you will be shooting only with primes, I know I couldn't work with that thing hanging off the end of a 24-70L or 70-200L. I dont know about the speed, responsiveness, etc but keep in mind that it is the bottom rung of the Canon DSLR ladder, not that it's not a good camera, but maybe not one for professional use.
I know several photographers shooting weddings with the D70 which is the Nikon's equivelent to Canon's 20D, a step up from the XT.
I would either recommend the D70s (I have a friend who bought one as backup to the Fuji S2 though after he saw the flash exposures swopped the S2 to backup role instead!) or a 20D.
If you are happy with it then you could use the canon AE-1 as backup, just make sure that you are able to shoot the entire wedding - in your advertised style - on film, should your DSLR die or be murdered at the beginning of the day.
Otherwise, and if you do go down the Canon route, you could do a lot worse than a 2nd hand 10D, I was shooting weddings with it until recently when I upgaded (the resolution and AF) and downgraded (almost everything else) to the 1Ds.
On an aside, don't spend a bunch of money on the camera and skimp on the lenses. A problem with DSLR's is that you will notice anything less than top quality lenses very fast, don't waste your money, save up a bit longer and get the best, anything less will cost you more money in the long run and plenty soul wrenching.

Pom, in what important (to you) respects was a 1Ds a downgrade from a 10D?
If I may intrude with my recollection, it was performance in shadow areas, where the 10D was noticeably better.
Judging from what I've read, the 1Ds is not an improvement over the 20D here, but I don't know if the 20D is as good as the 10D.
Jan, I was confronted last year with a choice between a used 1Ds and a new 20D. The 1Ds was much more expensive, but I bought it anyhow. The trade-off for me was very simple: the main advantages of the 20D are lighter weight, faster camera-on, faster image processing. DIGIC 2 may also produce less noise at higher ISOs, but for me that is largely an academic issue. The main attractions of the used 1Ds were simply build quality (when I buy stuff - except printers - I tend to keep it a long time), full frame 24x36 and higher resolution, which I value alot for making enlargements of cropped images.
In my case, the used 1Ds was still noticeably more expensive than a brand new 1D MkII, which would have been too expensive for me anyway. Today, purchasing the used 1Ds would put the total sum of my already acquired 20D body and the 1Ds body at less than purchasing the 1D MkII.
The "resolution" advantage of the 1Ds isn't much compared to the 20D (16% more pixels in either dimension in the final image), but you can get by with lenses that the 20D would strip bare because of its greater angular resolution (37% horizontally or vertically). Cue the arguments con/pro stitching. ::
And wide-angle is of course easier with the 1Ds full frame, which is something that I sometimes miss with the 20D.
As for build quality, the 20D is good, but it's not as bombproof as the 1-series, and of course it shouldn't be exposed to rain or such. I fully expect to be able to keep it at least 5 years, without worrying about it falling apart. A 1-series body should last "forever".
I didn't think I'd appreciate the high-ISO performance of the 20D until I suddenly used it.
All this goes to show simply that what one buys is a very personal decision based on what one considers to be most important for his/her own situation. It's fine for first-time buyers to solicit opinions like this on the web, but as I mentioned above, that is why it is worth putting alot of effort into some basic system decisions relative to ones needs and preferences.
And if my priorities weren't towards getting better lenses, a photo printer, software and other gear, I'd probably have aimed for a 1-series camera myself.

I see what you mean, but I haven't experienced it at such low ISO and limited underexposure.

*small wave* Hi, it's the original poster again... hah.
Well, I didn't know my little ol' post would ignite such conversation-- but I did want to tell you guys, I was pushed just enough away from the Rebel that I fell into the lap of the Nikon D70S, and in combination with planning a spur of the moment trip out west, I figured what the heck! So I ordered it from expresscameras.com for a pretty good deal. I got it in a package with a Sigma "70-300mm f4-5.6 APO Zoom Macro SuperII Pro Lens" and another lens which our dealer claimed was a step up from the kit Nikon lens. I ordered it next day shipping so it would be here in time to leave for the trip, so hopefully that all goes well and I don't get a ton of replies from you guys telling me, "You've been HAD!" or something. It's really overwhelming when I'm just getting into this and there is SO MUCH on the market, and I have barely scratched the surface with information on digital cameras.
I am so excited to play with my new gadgets! I've never had a nice digital SLR so this is going to open a new world for me, and hopefully will steer me into the right direction for business.
Anyway, thanks for all your help! I'm sure I'll be back for more questions later!

I'd say it's possible Pom's camera is more susceptible to the banding issue than most copies of the 1Ds. I've encountered it a few times, but always in images underexposed by at least a stop, and mostly at higher ISO settings. I've seen reports of people who sent their cameras in to Canon and had the sensor replaced under warranty and the problem went away, but details are hazy as this was like 2 years ago. It may be worth contacting Canon service if being without the camera for a few weeks coincides with a planned recuperation anyway. Include an example image, preferably with the least amount of underexposure possible, when contacting Canon.

Pom, if their warranty is worth the paper it's printed on the camera should meet Canon's own technical performance specifications, and if it doesn't their warranty should obligate them to fix it. What it costs them is not your issue, and you won't know what you can achieve before trying. Obviously if you expect trouble getting the warranty respected you need to make doubly sure you have the problem well demonstrated and documented so they can't wiggle out unless they can clearly prove to your satisfaction that the problem does not reside within the camera.

Hi Jonathan - did what you suggested - you're right. It raises real questions about the meaning of consumer protection laws and what to do about governmental institutions that don't work.

What is the maximum amount I can sue for in Rhode Island?
The Rhode Island small claims court limit is $2,500. This means that the maximum you can sue for in Rhode Island are these limits and if your dispute exceeds these amounts you cannot sue in small claims or will need to lower your claim or file in a higher court.
What is the Rhode Island small claims court statute of limitations?
The Rhode Island small claims court statute of limitations depends on each claim. If you have a written contract you have 3 years to make a claim. If your claim involves property damage you have 3 years, and if the claim is made from an oral contract you have 3 years or if dealing with personal injury the statute of limitations in Rhode Island is 3 years.
Where do I file my small claims case?
You need to file your small claims complaint where the defendant resides or in contract disputes, in the locale where the contract was signed. The appropriate court house may NOT be where you live.
How do I know if I should sue in Rhode Island small claims court?
The first thing you need to ask yourself is "do I have case?" Before you file a claim you should consider the following:
1. Is the amount of the claim worth your time to pursue?
2. Does the person you have a claim against have any possible claim against you?
3. Does the person you have a claim against have the ability to pay if you win?
4. Do you feel you have the ability to prosecute the claim without the help of an attorney?
5. Can your evidence convince a judge that you are in the right? In other words, are you making it easy for them, is it a clear cut case? Can you find any state statute, law or code violation to validate your case? If so, point this out!
What kind of cases can I sue for in Rhode Island small claims court?
These types of cases are generally heard in Small Claims courts:
-Unpaid debts
-Breach of verbal or written contract
-Back rent
-Return of security deposit
-Broken or damaged property
-Doctor or hospital bills
-Other issues valued at $3000 or less (check your state below as this varies state to state)
Can I sue on behalf of someone else?
In most states an individual who represents a party to a small claims court action must complete and sign an "Authorization to Appear on Behalf of Party"- a form typically provided by the clerk of the small claims court or often found on their website. The representative must state that he/she is authorized to represent the party, and he/she must describe the basis for authorization (usually a letter from the represented party will suffice.)
What is a demand letter?
Before you file a small claims complaint with the court you are required to send a demand letter to the defendant. The defendant is the person you believe owes you money. A demand letter simply spells out that the defendant owes you money and you are requesting they pay the outstanding debt to you within 30 days. You can also fulfill the demand requirement by requesting via phone, email, or in person. By fulfilling this requirement in writing you are also able to show this request was made when compiling your evidence for court.
For more information on sending a demand letter, click here.
What do I do once I file a complaint?
Once you file a complaint you need to wait for the defendant to be served and for the paper work to be filed with the courts. The time for you to get a court date can vary from court to court as it depends on how backed up they are. Typically this can be a 2 month process.
What happens if the defendant does not show?
If the defendant does not show up the court can decide the case without them there. It is also possible for the other side to lose the case by default and a default judgment can be issued against them.
What happens if I win?
If you win you are entitled to the amount granted by the judge. The defendant does have 30 days to file an appeal. If there is no appeal, the losing party may voluntarily pay. It may become necessary to get the court to award a judgment, garnish wages or other necessary means.
What happens if I lose?
If you lose you may have to pay the other side's costs and expenses (not including lawyer's fees.)
How long does it take to learn if I win or lose?
The decision by the judge or arbitrator can vary court to court. In some instances you may get your decision by the end of the hearing. Often you will get your decision sent to you by mail.
How do I present evidence in a small claims case?
Presenting evidence is very important in proving your case to the judge or arbitrator. You want to make your case as simple as possible and clear that you are in the right. Speaking as little as possible is generally preferred. Make sure you have with you any documents, contracts, emails, pictures and any other necessary evidence to back up your case.
Is an attorney allowed in small claims court?
No. An attorney is not allowed in small claims court with you. The only was an attorney is allowed is if you are an attorney and you are representing yourself.
What if I need more time?
You can change the trial date if:
1. You cannot go to court on the scheduled date (you will have to pay a fee to postpone the trial) or
2. You did not get served at least 15 days before trial (or 20 days if you live outside the country) or
3. You need more time to get an interpreter. One postponement is allowed, and you will not have to pay a fee to delay the trial.

Gastrointestinal perforation is a hole that develops through the whole wall of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large bowel, rectum, or gallbladder. This condition is a medical emergency.
Intestinal perforation; Perforation of the intestines
Gastrointestinal perforation can be caused by a variety of illnesses. These include:
It may also be caused by abdominal surgery.
Perforation of the intestine causes the contents of the intestines to leak into the abdominal cavity. This causes a serious infection called peritonitis.
Symptoms may include:
X-rays of the chest or abdomen may show air in the abdominal cavity, called free air. This is a sign of a tear (perforation).
A CT scan of the abdomen often shows the location of the perforation. The white blood cell count is often higher than normal.
Treatment usually involves surgery to repair the hole (perforation). Sometimes, a small part of the intestine must be removed. A temporary colostomy or ileostomy (to drain the small or large intestine) may be needed.
In rare cases, antibiotics alone can be used to treat patients whose perforations have closed. This can be confirmed by a physical examination, blood tests, CT scan, and x-rays.
Surgery is usually successful. However, the success of surgery depends on how severe the perforation is, and for how long it was present before treatment.
The most common serious complication of perforation, even with surgery, is infection. Infections can be either inside the abdomen (abdominal abscess), or throughout the whole body. Body-wide infection is called sepsis. It can be very serious and can lead to death.
Call your health care provider if you have:
Often people will have a few days of pain before the intestinal perforation occurs. If you have pain in the abdomen, see your health care provider immediately. Treatment is much simpler and safer when it is given before the perforation occurs.

Senior centers in New York City and parts of South Florida have added something new to their activities menus—talks on safe sex and condom giveaways. As growing numbers of older adults are diagnosed and living with HIV/AIDS, prevention and counseling services now are being aimed at the 50+ crowd. "It's about time," said Jane Fowler, a 72-year-old Kansas City, Mo., grandmother, who was infected with HIV in her 50s. HIV, short for the human immunodeficiency virus, is the virus that causes AIDS. After a long marriage ended, Fowler dated and became involved with a male friend, and had unprotected sex. Since being diagnosed in 1991, Fowler has been on a mission to educate older folks about safe sex and HIV/AIDS prevention.
"The lack of education is my biggest concern—the fact that older people aren't aware of (HIV/AIDS)," said Fowler, who founded HIV Wisdom for Older Women. "How often do you see a HIV prevention poster with an older face?"
Her concern is justified. Nearly one-third of all people living with HIV/AIDS are aged 50 and older. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 115,000 of the 475,000 people living with HIV/AIDS in the United States are 50+. That's nearly double the number in 2001. The real numbers are likely higher because many people with HIV/AIDS remain undiagnosed, according to the CDC.
Much of the reason HIV/AIDS is appearing in the older population relates to antiretroviral drugs and improved treatments, allowing people to live longer with the virus and disease. Still, the rising rate of new infections among those 50 and older is of concern.
Nearly one of every six new diagnoses of HIV is in someone aged 50 and older. "The primary mode of transmission among [the older] population is sex," said Stephen Karpiak, associate director for research at AIDS Community Research Initiative of America (ACRIA). The group conducted the biggest study ever done on HIV/AIDS and older adults. It found that heterosexual sex is the mode of transition in more than 60 percent of those over 50 infected during the last five years with HIV.
It shouldn't be a surprise. "Many older adults are sexually active," concluded an August 2007 study of sexuality among older adults that appeared in the New England Journal of Medicine. The problem: many older adults don't think HIV/AIDS affects them. Older adults are less likely to use protection because pregnancy is not an issue post-menopause. Doctors do not always test older people for HIV/AIDS. Also to blame, noted Fowler, is the lack of education and prevention directed at older adults.
"We need to move beyond the late-night jokes on Viagra and recognize that sexuality and intimacy continue to be an important part of everyone's lives, even after someone turns 60," according to Edwin Mendez-Santiago, commissioner of New York City's Department for the Aging. Home to the largest population in the nation living with HIV/AIDS, New York City recently launched a $1 million prevention and HIV education campaign in the city's senior centers.
About one-third of New York City residents with HIV/AIDS are 50 or older. Within seven years, a majority of people living with HIV/AIDS in New York City will be 50 and older, according to the ACRIA study.
"People are at risk; it doesn't matter who you are," said Karpiak. Among older people, post-menopausal women are especially at risk, he says. And women of color are particularly vulnerable. Most got the virus from sex with infected partners, while many others got HIV through shared needles.
Life Savers
"We call it our life savers when we talk about condoms," noted Edid Gonzalez, outreach coordinator with Senior HIV Intervention Project, an effort by Florida's Broward and West Palm Beach counties to provide HIV/AIDS prevention and education. The program taps retirees, including an 86-year-old known in area senior centers as "Condom Grandma," to become "safe sexperts" to convince their contemporaries to get tested for HIV/AIDS.

Okay, I haven't been around in a while as work has been keeping me really busy. I still play when I get a chance, but not that often. I am hoping this new work schedule we are going to will make it so that I can get out more.
Here is my question. As far as disc weights go, is it completely preference and what feels good to the thrower? What are the reasons to throwing heavier as opposed to lighter? I have been struggling with this question for a while.
Currently, I throw mostly 150g discs (drivers). I have some heavier stuff for when it is windy. My midranges are a bit heavier, however my favorite midrange is a 150g Shark. My putters I like heavy 175g or so. Am I on the right track with this whole weight thing? Should I be throwing heavier in certain situation? Right now I only throw heavier when it is windy.
Thanks for any info.

Springbrook High School boys basketball coach Tom Crowell can get a little carried away with the hyperbole when talking about the competition in his team's division.
The first comparison was to the Bataan Death March. The next, the NFC East. Then, finally, the ACC.
Crowell, now in his eighth year as Springbrook's coach, may have had a flair for the dramatic when he compared his Blue Devils' schedule to that of a perilous journey made by thousands of prisoners of war or a once all-powerful division in the National Football League or one of college basketball's premier conferences, but the theme of his argument was all the same: these next two months will be no cakewalk.
"We beat a great [Col. Zadok] Magruder team, and in 24 hours we got to turn around and play a [James H.] Blake team we've beaten seven years in a row. I'm thinking, 'We just played a 5-1 team (Magruder), Blake's now 5-1, Paint Branch is 6-0,'" Crowell said. "It just struck me, 'My God, we're going to kill each other.'"
It's not likely that the winner of the Montgomery 4A East will escape with a gaudy record.
"The team that comes out of our division might have four or five losses," Crowell said.
The teams in the division have quite the resume.
There is, most obviously, Springbrook, the winner of three state titles from 2008-2010 and the proud owner of the most recent blemish on Magruder's record. Then there is undefeated Paint Branch with arguably the deepest bench in the county — four players are currently averaging in double-digit scoring — and always strong Sherwood and Blake.
Upstart squads from John F. Kennedy and Montgomery Blair add to the ever-deepening pool of talent and Wheaton, though not a member of the 4A East but still a Silver Spring-area team, leapt out to a 4-2 start before last week's holiday tournaments.
"It's just a brutal division," Crowell said. "And I think if the kids look at it in the right frame of mind — it's not all about records — we're going to be better off."
Barely a month into the season, the division is already stuck in the throes of a non-stop game of King of the Hill, with one team claiming the throne for a day or two before tumbling back down.
Two weeks ago, Springbrook gave the impression it might run away with the division. The Blue Devils engineered a comeback overtime victory against defending state champ Magruder, which had already taken down then nationally-ranked DeMatha Catholic.
Less than 48 hours later, Blake defeated the Blue Devils.
"It was a nice win for us," Blake coach Marcus Wiggins said of his Bengals' 60-53 win over the Blue Devils on Dec. 21. "We haven't won that first game against Springbrook in a while. But we have nine more division games to go so we pride ourselves in not getting too high. It's only December. We want to be playing our best basketball in February."
For a minute, then, it was Blake at the helm. But on that same night, Paint Branch took an easy victory over a then one-loss Blair team to remain undefeated, and the Panthers became the de facto No. 1 public school squad.
"I don't think you really can [name a top team]," Paint Branch coach Walter Hardy said. "I think the Springbrook-Paint Branch-Blake rivalry is always really good. It's really hard to say who's a top team. I think on any given night somebody can knock somebody off. You can't look at your schedule and start counting wins."
Prior to last week's holiday tournaments, Blair, Kennedy and Wheaton were all owners of solid records that looked good on paper, but were also missing a resume-building win. Of the three, only Wheaton had a victory over an opponent with a winning record (Rockville), and the trio was a combined 0-5 when facing teams of .500 or better.
"The competition has been better, and that's — that is what it is," Blair coach Damon Pigrom said following a loss at Paint Branch on Dec. 21, his team's second in a row after winning the opening four games. "I hoped [the start] would foster some sort of confidence in our guys, and it has to a point, but these last two games we just haven't competed."
Wheaton would be as likely a state championship candidate as any had Josh Hart, a senior Villanova recruit who transferred to Sidwell Friends in Washington, D.C., his sophomore year, stuck the public school route. But the expansive recruiting scene offered by private schools in the district lured him away and Wheaton coach Sharief Hashim has adjusted nicely, leading the Knights to a 4-2 record before the holidays.
"I'm not a coach who's bitter to lose a kid with that type of talent," Hashim said. "It's a great opportunity for him."
But division play is only beginning and by season's end in mid-February, a pecking order should be established. Yet in a league where it has already been proven that anybody can beat anybody on any given night, does it really matter?
Said Wiggins: "You don't win a state championship in December."

Atlantic Monthly - v. 283 no. 2 (February 1999) p. 95
By Timothy J. Gilfoyle
Represents the most comprehensive examination to date of the city's history prior to 1900. Indeed, few historians today attempt synthetic and comprehensive interpretations of this magnitude. The authors weave together the unique details of New York City's history with a generation's worth of recent and original scholarship, insightfully reconceptualizing the city's past. . . . Gotham is filled with engaging vignettes and vivid narratives. The stories of Abraham Lincoln's visits to New York in 1860 and 1861, {and} the description of the draft riots of 1863 (still the deadliest incident of urban disorder in American history) . . . are among the best short historical accounts readers will find anywhere...

My family has been making this for over 20 years at the holidays! My suggestion-- I found after filling and rolling I wrap in wax paper, then foil and FREEZE! This really makes the roll very moist, firms up the filling nicely and makes it very easy to cut into nice slices. When you take out of the freezer, let it sit 5-10 before slicing. I also make extra rolls to give as gifts and can be left in the freezer for up to 3 months.
We usually gobble this dessert up with my old recipe. This one had bit of aftertaste. Wouldn't suggest

This was a great dessert! I've never made one, and it was easy! I also used a regular baking sheet instead of a jelly roll pan...it worked fine. (It still took about 20 minutes to bake.) Enjoy!
This is one of the best pumpkin rolls I have EVER had!!! *Note* be sure to use excatly the amount of butter for the filling as the recipe calls for...or the filling will be soupy and it will run out the side when you roll it up.
Everyone that has tried this pumpkin roll loves it!!!
Have already made 6 Pumpkin Roll II's since Thanksgiving! Family loves it. Friends in Sunday School asked for receipe today!
Very easy and fun to make! Delicious!
Fantastic!! Everyone loved this. I made this for Thanksgiving & Christmas. Easier to make than it sounds. If you make the filling first and refrigerate for about an hour it will thicken up. Not too running for rolling process. Freezes well.
This pumpkin roll is great. Everyone loves it butter is the key in the filling. Make sure to use butter instead of margerine in the filling because it is a little to soft with margerine. Again easy great recipe.
This is the first time I have made any cake roll. This was an easy to following recipe that turned out wonderful. I recommend to anyone who likes cooking with real pumpkins.
