When a mom decided to throw a birthday party for her son's 11th birthday he said not to bother. Colin has a disease similar to Asperger's Syndrome and has no friends in school. It is so bad that he eats his lunch in the school office each day because no kids want to eat with him. His mom decided to do something and created a Facebook page 11 days ago. It now has over a million likes and hundreds of birthday cards pour into a mailbox set up for the birthday. So far it is still a surprise. If you would like to send a birthday card to Colin his address is:
P.O. Box 756
Richland, MI 49083-0756
His birthday is March 9th.

As titled, the suit was used twice last winter. I put on some weight and got a bigger winter suit for this season. It kept me warm for hours in rhode island winters, and really liked it, just grew out of it. The size of it is XLL, or for someone about 6'-6'3" 175-200lb.
Asking for $150 and I'll ship it anywhere in u.s. for an additional $10. I believe I paid around $250 for it.
The link below is a picture reference of the wetsuit. It is lined with yellow thermal througout the chest and hood as well even though the picture doesn't show it, along with some of the aesthetic details/patterns on the shoulder liners. The one I have is labelled as the AMP, yet looks like the one pictured.

Anyone know any of the photographers taking pics Saturday down at Poverty?
Good times, definitely worth the drive over! Its pretty amazing how dramatic the tide shift is there.
yea did anyone get some Cape May photos. I didn't get to go up there but its probably my favorite spot on the east coast. My best sessions have been there
was wondering where that was...
Povs was heavy. On one walk back up the beach I counted 5 broken boards.
my buddy surfed there, he said it was super fast and really hard to make backside barrels
I surfed there Saturday... was pretty sick just looking down the lineup watching people getting barreled for ever... some were pretty fast but a lot were makeable. Was big and heavy.
yeah. the best spot was right at the CG base but I was really liking the first pipe/jetty at the turn in the road. if you took off right in front of the pilings there was a very hollow left there.

Lawrence, Kan. • Ben McLemore scored 30 points on his 20th birthday, Jeff Withey dominated in the paint and No. 14 Kansas routed No. 10 Kansas State 83-62 on Monday night to snap a maddening three-game skid and forge a tie for first in the Big 12.
Withey had 17 points, 10 rebounds and five blocks, giving him 263 for his career, one shy of the conference's career mark held by Chris Mihm of Texas. Withey even had a couple of steals as he helped the Jayhawks (20-4, 8-3) pull even with the Wildcats (19-5, 8-3) in the league race.
Two of Kansas State's losses have come against the Jayhawks.
Rodney McGruder had 20 points and Angel Rodriguez added 17 for the Wildcats. But they never seemed to be in the game, despite riding a four-game winning streak and coming into raucous Allen Fieldhouse as the higher ranked team for the first time since Feb. 20, 1982.
The Jayhawks used two big runs in the first half to take a 47-29 lead at the break, and then thwarted every rally that the Wildcats tried to muster.
Monday's scores
• No. 14 Kansas 83,No. 10 Kansas State 62
• No. 15 Georgetown 63, No. 18 Marquette 55

They're made in Portugal and IMO on the same level as Camper, YMC, Surface 2 Air, Swear, etc. Not quite an Alden or C&J, but who needs every shoe to last 20 years? I'd buy them for retail if there is a style I really dig.

Nintendo have certainly rolled out the big guns for the launch of their new console. Although a true Pokemon role-playing game is not due for a while yet, the little critters have made their way onto the Nintendo DS via a rather more unusual route.
Pokemon Dash is a racing game viewed from a top down perspective, making its most obvious point of comparison the old Codemasters Micro Machines games. You control one of a dozen or so Pokemon (more courses and monsters can be added to the game if you have a copy of one of the previous GBA games) around an ostensibly simple course of checkpoints.
The big gimmick with the game is that instead of using the D-pad as in a normal race game you have to physically move Pikachu and pals by constantly rubbing the screen as if the stylus was the little fella's scampering feet. Controlling direction at the same time creates a surprisingly tactile game where you almost feel you've got as much exercise as your chosen Pokemon. You have to hit checkpoints in a certain order and the game soon introduces sections where you have to use balloons or the Nessie-like Lapras to cross water, with the former forcing you to skydive to the ground aiming directly at the checkpoint.
As fun as it is, this is an almost unapologetically simple game, with little additional depth revealing itself once you've got the hang of the basic principles. It's still entertaining though and dedicated Pokemon fans in particular will lap it up.

San Bernardino County Sheriff John McMahon on Friday said a search is continuing in the Big Bear Valley area for Christopher Dorner, the Los Angeles police officer accused in the killing of three people.
No evidence was found overnight that Dorner is in the area, despite a couple of reported sightings.
More than 100 law enforcement officials are helping out in the search in the Big Bear Valley for Dorner. Snowcats, which are enclosed-cab, fully-tracked vehicles, as well as armored vehicles with chains are involved.
"Sheriff's officials are trained to deal with this," McMahon said at a Friday morning news conference.
Law enforcement was drawn to Big Bear after they found a vehicle belonging to Dorner in the woods. The fire burned the vehicle, but a vehicle identification number indicated it had belonged to Dorner.
Dorner's burned vehicle continues to be processed in Riverside. Irvine, Los Angeles and Riverside authorities are involved in the investigation of the vehicle.
Authorities followed the tracks that they believed were from Dorner around the forest near where the truck was found but ended up losing the tracks.
"The search will continue just as yesterday," McMahon said.
Law enforcement is unable to use helicopters in the search due to the snowfall, he said.
The search continued throughout the night in the mountain area and abandoned cabins were specifically looked at.
"It is a extremely dangerous situation, but sheriff's deputies are trained," McMahon said.

SAINT LEO, Fla. – In Saturday night Sunshine State Conference men's soccer action, Saint Leo (3-1-0, 1-1-0 SSC) edged Barry (1-3-0, 0-1-0) by a score of 1-0.
In a fairly quiet first half that saw each team feeling each other out for the first 30 minutes, the game took a swing in favor of Saint Leo when Aaron Gendreau retrieved his own rebound and blasted the ball into the net to give the Lions a 1-0 lead in the 44th minute.
In the second half, the Lions were able to preserve their first half lead, much to the help of Manuel Schoenhuber's exceptional goal keeping. The freshman keeper had five saves on the night as he improved his record to 3-1-0 on the year.
Although the Lions came away with the win, the Buccaneers outshot Saint Leo 16 to 10 on the night, with five of those being on target. The Lions' only two shots on goal came from Gendreau on the play in the 44th minute that resulted in the eventual game winner.
The Saint Leo men's soccer team gets back into action this coming Wednesday, Sep 19, at home against the University of Tampa. Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m.

Buckley, Christopher. Boomsday
After her father stakes (and loses) her tuition money on a dotcom startup, our heroine sheds her family name and takes to the blogosphere as Cassandra Devine. An aggressive, uber-caffeinated voice in the night, she unwittingly mobilizes her brethren into a battle with the "Ungreatest Generation" – their parents. The baby boomers are retiring en masse, buckling the social security system as they reach for their nine irons. Cassandra Devine is not prepared to foot the bill.
Her big idea to right the ship – offer huge tax breaks to seniors who agree to kill themselves by age 65. She enlists Senator Randolph Jepperson to get the "voluntary transitioning" bill on the floor. He wants a shot at the presidency. She wants a serious national discussion about social security reform. They both may be in over their heads as the issue goes viral.
Christopher Buckley brings his trademark wit to this irreverent comedy. The characters are eerily recognizable and the dialog lights up the pages. The author of "Thank You For Smoking" hits another national nerve. Debt and social security issues have only become more ominous since this book's publication, making it funnier still. Or does that make it less funny?

What are the Liberal Arts?
The term liberal arts refers to a grouping of disciplines that, in Western culture, are considered essential for adequate education and civic participation: the Humanities (Arts, English, Foreign Languages, History, and Philosophy), the Social Sciences (Anthropology, Communication, Geography, Political Science, Psychology, Sociology, and Womens Studies), the Sciences (Biology, Geology, and Physics), and Mathematics.
The ancient Greeks established the importance of a liberal arts foundation to an educated citizenry, and ever since then universities like UMD have committed themselves to a liberal arts education for every student.
A liberal arts foundation will teach you to
1. analyze and interpret information
2. form and express informed opinions
3. communicate effectively
4. appreciate the richness of a diverse human culture
5. better understand human nature and society
While these skills are valuable by themselves, they form the backbone of whats been called the conceptual economy. Daniel Pink, business writer and former speechwriter for Vice-Resident Al Gore, points out that todays college graduates need to master six critical skills to succeed in the conceptual economy of the 21st century:
1. Design (The ability to conceptualize and think creatively)
2. Story (The ability to tell a story, to use metaphor and to write and speak clearly)
3. Symphony (The ability to summarize and synthesize information, to bring various ideas and people together to work as a team).
4. Empathy (The ability to immerse yourself in someone else's culture, and to be tolerant of ideas contrary to ones own cultural tradition).
5. Play (The ability to imagine, to be humorous, and to utilize game strategies in everyday problem solving).
6. Meaning (The ability to seek out meaningful, non-material activities, to appreciate symbolic culture, and to develop lasting meaningful career skills).
These six skills very much overlap with the five core aspects of a liberal arts education listed above. The College of Liberal Arts offers students courses to strengthen all of these six skills that will make a difference in their careers, and major that incorporate all of these skills into their curriculum. For a list of CLA courses, grouped by these skills, click here.

Robin Williams leaves behind 4 upcoming films
Photo Credit: August 11th/Getty Images
I'm still shocked about Robin Williams death on Monday. I wish it weren't real but it is. Just like many actors who have died, he leaves behind movies that are still going to be coming out...
Around Christmas he will reprise his role as Teddy Roosevelt in Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb. It comes out in December.
He will also star in another holiday movie, an indie movie called Merry Friggin' Christmas, co-starring Wendi McLendon-Covey, Lauren Graham and Oliver Platt. It's supposed to come out November 7th.
The drama Boulevard, actually debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival earlier this year. It doesn't have a release date yet.
And finally, they were developing a sequel to 1993's Mrs. Doubtfire. That one, sadly will not be released as they hadn't started shooting yet.

Explain Remind students that any conclusions they draw about what they are reading should be based on relevant details in the text. Write the following on the board: The stripes of zebras help to protect them from predators. When zebras are traveling in a herd, animals that hunt them cannot see individual zebras because the stripes make the herd look like a large striped block.
Guided Practice Read the text with students. Suggest that students use a Conclusions Map to organize clues and draw a conclusion. (Zebras need to be protected from predators, which will hunt them for food.)
Practice Write the following paragraph on the board and read it aloud to students. Have students draw a conclusion about why zebras have stripes. Lions, which are the main predators of zebras, are color blind, so even though the zebra's stripes do not match the background colors of the surroundings, the lions cannot see the difference between the zebras and the background. This helps the zebras to escape from their predators.

Hawks dazzle with new graphite duds
Cubs' short-season affiliate holds baseball fashion show
By Benjamin Hill / MLB.com | April 2, 2013 11:01 AM ET
The unveiling may have taken place on April 1, but when it comes to their new uniforms the Boise Hawks are 100% serious.
The Hawks, Class A Short-Season affiliate of the Chicago Cubs, held an Opening Night fashion show of sorts at a local sports bar to show the public the look they will be sporting in 2013 and beyond. Thogh the team has kept their home color scheme of Corn Silk, Desert Red, Tennessee Orange and Tampa Bay Green intact, notable changes abound. The Hawks' road jerseys are graphite (see below, right), making them the first professional baseball club to feature this metallic hue.
"[The graphite] is a deeper color than charcoal gray, and it matches well with the green and orange," said Mike Safford, the Hawks' broadcaster and baseball information manager. "And the thread of the uniforms has a metallic look, so when the sun hits them they're going to shimmer a little bit."
Perhaps the most important element of the new look is a scratch mark logo depicting the havoc a pair of Hawk claws can wreak. The scratch mark, which Safford describes as "a bit more edgy" than what the team has done in the past, appears on the home and road uniform sleeves and will also serve as an alternate cap logo the Hawks will wear on special occasions. The scratch mark is complemented by a logo depicting a baseball in the clutches of a Hawk's talons, which also appears on both the home and road uniforms. Perhaps most ostentatious, however, is a batting practice jersey which features a huge orange "B" on the chest and no other letters or numbering.
Safford said that the motivation for the new duds, created by the Minor League design veterans at Brandiose, was simple: the Hawks had had their previous set of uniforms for the past six years and, therefore, they "needed new uniforms anyway."
"The thought process was 'Well, let's rebrand ourselves but at the same time stick with what works,'" he said. "This gives us more to put out there, for the fans to buy and the kids to enjoy."

I watched the show online, which is a bit of a problem for me because I want to sit there and do research, so then I had to watch it again. The ratings are already out and apparently this episode did the best of any so far. Who doesn't love Reba McEntire?

She started the show at her family ranch in Oklahoma and traveled to Aberdeen, Miss.; Raleigh, NC; Oxford, NC; Tappahannock, Va.; and England in pursuit of her mom's family tree.
I was surprised to see Josh Taylor (formerly of the New England Historic Genealogical Society (NEHGS), now of FindMyPast.com) walk into the library in Aberdeen. This scene was in the clip I posted Friday, but I had assumed they were at the NEHGS library in Boston.
One theme is McEntire's discovery of her family's slave-owning past. When she's confronted with her fourth-great-grandfather's life as a slave trader, I like what the archivist says, that slavery is part of all of our histories.
Later, she learns the same ancestor's grandfather (McEntire's sixth-great-grandfather) came to the country as a 9-year-old indentured servant. He was one of the fewer than half of all indentured servants who lived long enough to become free citizens—and became successful enough to purchase land.
When she learned the boy's father put him on the ship, McEntire cautions herself against drawing early conclusions. Good for her: Before making judgments about an ancestor's actions, it's a good idea to learn the context of their lives.
I like the variety of records used in this episode (though we didn't see where Josh found his information). Censuses, obituaries, land records, tax records, newspapers (she used GenealogyBank at the Granville County courthouse, but they didn't show the name of the site), slave bills of sale, deeds, baptismal registers and more.
You can read a litle about McEntire's ancestral journey in this Tulsa World article (McEntire grew up on a ranch in Chockie, Okla.).
Here's a preview of the show in which McEntire learns family information from D. Joshua Taylor, formerly of the New England Historic Genealogical Society and now chief genealogist at FindMyPast.com.
Taylor explains a bit about why names appear spelled differently in historical records and hints at some "very interesting things" happening in one of the counties where an ancestor of McEntire's lived—I guess we'll have to watch the show to find out what those things are.
And here's McEntire in Chesire, England, searching for records on an ancestor who was baptized there in 1688—and seemingly sent away to the American colonies at just 9 years old.

Cleveland Clinic to take part in tumor analysis study
(Cleveland) – Imagine a molecular test that could better determine how to treat an individual's cancerous tumor.
Select patients at Cleveland Clinic's Taussig Cancer Center will have the opportunity to have their tumors analyzed for genetic mutations that could influence their treatments.
For the next year, cancer patients with one of 15 specific solid tumors with historically poor prognosis or limited treatment options will have the opportunity to participate in a study. Their tissue samples will be sent for targeted genetic sequencing to Foundation Medicine, a molecular information company specializing in comprehensive genomic analysis of tumors.
Participating patients' tissue samples will be analyzed with a test that examines more than 230 cancer-related genes to provide information on the tumor's genomic composition and identifies genomic alterations that could guide treatment.
Once the analysis is complete, an independent team of Taussig Cancer Institute oncologists will review the results and recommend a personalized treatment plan which could include chemotherapy, radiation, targeted therapies and/or participation in a clinical trial that may benefit the patient.
"Personalized medicine is changing the way we treat cancer," says Davendra Sohal, M.D., M.P.H., staff physician in the department of Solid Tumor Oncology at Cleveland Clinic's Taussig Cancer Institute and principal investigator. "Knowing the specific genomic composition of a tumor may allow us to create precise, individual treatment plans for patients rather than relying on standard treatments that may be ineffective and may result in unnecessary treatment costs."
Dr. Sohal talked with WTAM's Darren Toms:
"This is a very exciting time in cancer research," says Brian J. Bolwell, M.D., FACP, chairman of Cleveland Clinic's Taussig Cancer Institute. "This type of personalized cancer medicine can help patients with recurrent cancers or with cancers that do not respond well to current treatment protocols. Through this collaboration, we can give patients more treatment options than ever before."

Ahh the Wilmington, NC ghettos............Probably pretty cool places.
Anyways, for those who are considering the Wilmington area as a new home, consider this you SOB's:
Take Swellinfo's delightful forum and use it as a microcosm for the east coast. Pretty much all of the Southern North Carolina guys on here are respectful, intelligent, seemingly friendly and down-to-earth. You bunch them up with the South Carolina contingent, and you are looking at the classiest group of shred hounds on here. And they are surfers !!!! Imagine how sophisticated the rest of the population is. Go figure.......So take that for whatever it's worth.
My Lord what happened to the Northeast? Where did we go wrong? We used to dominate economically and politically, and now our greatest contribution to the nation is Snooki, Pauly D, and Shredmachine.

Ophthalmology on the Home Front
In the United States, ophthalmology- like other surgical fields- had to contend with war shortages. Prior to 1939, 85% of surgical instruments were made in Europe and the primary exporter of these was Germany. As Europe went to war, American manufacturing needed to fill the gap.
During these years, the government launched a campaign to encourage workers to help win the war by making personal sacrifices. Factory managers soon followed suit, asking employees to suspend union rules, work longer hours, and make other changes in their work patterns to support the war effort. The U.S. government and private companies produced posters and fliers urging workers to become "production soldiers" in Uncle Sam's army.
One particular area of shortage was spectacles. Early in the war effort, it was recognized that 18-20% of all military personnel needed visual correction. Spectacles needed to be made sturdier to withstand combat and to avoid costly replacement in the field. The Army Medical Department launched a large program to provide spectacles to their troops and awarded the contract to the American Optical Company of Massachusetts. The demand quickly overwhelmed American Optical's resources and eventually Bausch & Lomb Optical Co. and other smaller manufacturers had to be brought in to fulfill the army's needs.
At the same time, the Army recognized the need for better protective eyewear. Upon review of WWI data, it was revealed that the majority of eye injuries occurred not from firearms but from flying debris found on the battlefield. It was concluded that anywhere from 50-90% of eye injuries could be prevented with the proper eyewear. Protective eyewear was thus made for all fronts, including aviator goggles for pilots, glasses that could fit under gas masks for infantry men, and even goggles for specialized soldiers such as the Army' ski troops.

Slow weaning from Breastfeeding
I'm a breastfeeding mom up to now and I'd like to ask how I could slowly wean my 1 year old baby from breastfeeding and start him on a bottle? He has a lot of teeth already and he bites whenever he breastfeeds. Until now I've been trying to get him to use his bottle but I've had no success on that.Thanks in advance.

Hi Jackie,
Thank you for your post. Well done on breastfeeding your son for 1 year and helping him to have so many (nutritional, emotional and developmental) benefits.
Is your baby biting you the only reason you want to wean him from breastfeeding? I ask because there are many benefits to breastfeeding (in terms of your sons long term health and social development) throughout the second year of life and beyond (as the current WHO guidelines state). Of course, it is absolutely your decision to make and, as I say, you have already given your son many of these benefits.
I too had problems breastfeeding my son when he started biting but I got some great breastfeeding tips and he no longer bites and we are still happily breastfeeding. It could be that he is teething, getting distracted or nearing the end of the feed.
If you do still want your son to swap from breastfeeding, then it is actually best (for his teeth) if he drinks from a cup. After 1 year of age dental professionals advice no plastic teats (including bottles and pacifiers if possible) to give the best for your baby. Many breastfed babies will not feed from a bottle anyway so you may find an open cup or a sippy toddler cup easier.
With best wishes,

Hi LJ,
Thanks for the great suggestion. I'm planning to do breastfeeding up until 2 years old if possible. The reason why I wanted to switch him to formula is because he is gaining weight slowly and i was thinking If i could get him to drink formula maybe he could also gain weight a lot faster. I can tolerate biting at times and can slowly reprimand my baby.
Best regards,

Hi Jackie,
If you can detect the underlying cause of the slow weight gain, then you should be able to help your son gain weight while continuing to breastfeed.
Up until 1 year of age, food is for fun. But at 1 year of age, food becomes a big part of baby's nourishment and breastfeeding starts to taper off.
LJ has some wonderful tips on how to get your child to eat more table food and we highly recommend Baby Led Weaning.
There are lots of posts in the forums on "Baby Led Weaning". Please post back and let us know if you get any good ideas on how to help your son gain weight faster.
If he is eating lots of crackers and cookies he's likely not getting the nutrients he needs. High quality protein like fish, eggs, chicken, turkey, goat, lamb and beef can help him put on weight, as can nut butters like peanut butter.
LJ may have some good suggestions as she is using this method with her toddler. I'm sure she'll post back soon.
All of my babies that I did baby led weaning with chose to wean between 2 1/2 and 3 years of age. I wouldn't have traded that extra bonding time for anything.
Warm regards,

Since your child is now one, I would add in healthy fats and increase food consumption if weight gain is an issue, rather than institute formula. As for the biting, a baby cannot bite when actively engaged in breastfeeding. I would have your latch evaluated by a lactation consultant or counselor.
Making it to one year is a fantastic achievement. If you truly want to wean, you will need to start slow and have someone else introduce the bottle for quite some time (dad, babysitter, grandparent, etc) It is unlikely that your little one will take a bottle from you during this time. Drop one feeding a day for a week, then another, and another, until you have ceased to breastfeed.
31st July 2012 12:46 AM #6
Hi Jackie,
That's great that you want to breastfeed up to two years old but I can understand you being concerned about the weight gain- is this being monitored by a health visitor or similar? What weight percentile was your son born on and what weight percentile is he now?
I would follow Kate and Angela's suggestions and use the baby led weaning principles of giving your son a wide variety of food to try at each meal with plenty of snack options in between (e.g. steamed chicken, cheese, yoghurt, boiled cooled egg, fruit spread on wholemeal toast). Avocado is the only food which (pound for pound) has more calories than breast milk so try offering this often too. At one year old I still breastfed on demand to ensure my son was getting enough milk.
Please do let us know how you are getting on.
Best wishes,

Ahhh - yes, add in healthy fats/oils.
Your son may enjoy a soft puree of dates, coconut oil, almond flour and peanut butter. And definitely offer avocado every day if you can, as it is a healthy fat and should help him put on weight. You can mash it up if he likes it better that way, but he may just like picking it up with his fingers and "gumming" it. If it's a ripe avocado it should be easy for him to eat.

Hi Kate,
Your post made me think of a book I used to love as a child: Avocado Baby. It's about a baby who gains enormous strength from eating avocados...maybe there was more truth in that book than I realised at the time!

What a fantastic little book! I have never heard of it before. Very poignant, avocado is such a great, healthy food choice!

"If you look at crime statistics these things happen everywhere and we're not any different than any other community," said McKenna. Advertisement But on social media in recent weeks, dozens of athletes and Torrington High School students, male and female, have taunted the 13-year-old victim, calling her a "whore," criticizing her for "snitching" and "ruining the lives" of the 18-year-old football players, and bullying students who defend her. "Even if it was all his fault, what was a 13 year old girl doing hanging around 18 year old guys.." said a Twitter user with the handle, "@LoryyRamirez." That was reposted 11 times and received six favorites.ĀAnother said, "If it takes two then why is only one in trouble? Ha," a post that was reposted 21 times and received 13 "favorites."ĀThe cases of Gonzalez and Toribio, both 18 and residents of the housing complex at 330 Highland Ave., remain sealed. They are charged with three identical felonies, including second-degree sexual assault of a 13-year-old victim in Torrington. In both cases, the investigation began Feb. 10, 2013. It's unclear if the two cases are connected.ĀToribio's attorney, Charles F. Brower, declined to comment on the case. Gonzalez' attorney, Pat Brown, could not immediately be reached.ĀAs the case remains sealed, basic details are unavailable, including where the incident is alleged to have occurred. Gonzalez's case was continued until April 2, Toribio's until April 23. Gonzalez is being held at New Haven Correction Center. Toribio is out on $50,000 professional surety bond.ĀAccording to public discussion in court Tuesday, Toribio is being electronically monitored and is being individually tutored.ĀVICIOUS TWEETSĀDozens of Torrington High School students have been discussing the case on Facebook and Twitter.Ā"I wanna know why there's no punishment for young hoes," asked "@asmedick." That comment was reposted three times.ĀTwelve days after the alleged incident, "@AyooWilliam" tweeted, "You destroyed two people's life." Another responded, "I hope you got what you wanted."Ā"Sticking up for a girl who wanted the D and then snitched? have a seat pleaseeee," wrote "@ShelbyyKalinski."ĀPosts included graphic and vulgar language and, at times, photographs. Affiliations were determined by followers, posts of photographs and references.ĀA PREVIOUS ARRESTĀBefore the sex assault charges against Gonzalez, the team's Most Valuable Player, was charged in a March 2012 alleged felony robbery. He's accused of jumping three juveniles, 14-years-old, in search of money. Three other teens are alleged co-conspirators.ĀTwo of the teens were not identified because of their age. Jeffrey Holder, 19, a former Torrington High School football player, was the other person charged.ĀBoth were charged with three felonies, including robbery and conspiracy to commit robbery and two misdemeanor, assault and attempt to commit larceny. Although 2011 was Holder's final season, Gonzalez went on to play in 2012.ĀFormer Head Coach Dan Dunaj said when he became aware of the pending robbery charges against Gonzalez, "I reeled the kid in after that, and he walked the line. As a coach I was doing something right."ĀAlthough he let Gonzalez play after the felony robbery and assault charges, Dunaj said if he were still coach and Gonzalez had another season of football eligibility, he would not allow Gonzalez to play in the upcoming season due to the sex assault case.Ā"My process has always been like this, and I learned this from my high school coach, and I never got into any big trouble, thank God, but if you didn't give the kid a chance then who's going to," said Dunaj, who resigned in December.ĀThe district's policies for dismissing student athletes are taken on a case by case basis, according to McKenna, Dunaj and Torrington School Superintendent Cheryl Kloczko.ĀWhen asked, Kloczko said all questions about standards for student athlete dismissal should be referred to McKenna.ĀMcKenna said a "serious infraction" would cause a student athlete to be suspended from play, but couldn't say, when asked, if that would be a felony or a misdemeanor. He said he did consider violent felonies a "serious infraction."ĀAlthough McKenna was unable to discuss the Gonzalez case specifically, he said he was unaware of the three felony and two misdemeanor charges currently pending against Gonzalez, related to the alleged March 2012 incident.Ā"That situation would have caused him to be suspended from the team, I can tell you that, and kept on suspension until the conclusion of the case," said McKenna.ĀMcKenna said he was never informed of the incident.ĀThe Athletics Department handbook is not available online, nor are individual sports specific academic guidelines. Those guidelines, according to McKenna, are handed out to parents at the beginning of the season.ĀTorrington Schools officials said that when students are involved in criminal proceedings, extracurricular participation is considered on a case by case basis. McKenna said a "serious infraction" could cause a student to be suspended from a team.Ā"When the student does something and is arrested, of course, until they go to court they're innocent until proven guilty," said Kloczko. "While you're pending do we say, 'OK you were involved in this,' and because you were involved we kick them off the team, and then they're found innocent," said Kloczko.Ā"What happens if the kid is a bad seed? There's people in jail. There's bad people out there," said Dunaj. The five-year coach said, "If we had about 50 kids on the team over 5 years and you do the math how many of the kids I coach."Ā"The swim team doesn't have those type of kids. They have kids in the National Honor Society. I don't have those kids. I wish I did," said Dunaj.ĀDunaj reported a hazing incident as required, leading to a five-day suspension of four football players early in the season. The players missed two games each.Ā"I'm a mandatory reporter," said Dunaj, referring to hazing incidents.ĀThe school district hired two outside parties to investigate the incident. No information regarding the investigation has been released publicly, and school district officials have declined to comment further.ĀA CULTURE OF BULLYING?ĀSchool districts are required, via Connecticut state mandate, to address cyber-bullying that takes place off of school grounds.ĀAccording to the Connecticut Commission on Children, Public Act 11-232, school districts are required to take "Comprehensive steps to prevent bullying, humiliation or assault." Districts must take action if there are repeated online incidents that affect the school environment, or the student's ability to attend school. The act was put into place in July 2011.Ā"What's important too is that school is a place for learning," said Kloczko. "Many times what happens is the Twitter, and the emails, and the Facebook, a lot of that goes on outside of school that we don't even have knowledge of, and then it gets dragged into school and that's a challenge," Kloczko said.Ā"Families could help us with more careful use of technology by their children, maybe it wouldn't come into school," she added.ĀAccording to Barbara Spiegel, 18-year executive director of the Susan B. Anthony Project, coming forward is not easy for victims.Ā"It's really traumatic," Spiegel explained. "If you know how many people don't report sexual assaults, it's a lot because it is really traumatic. How many times you have to tell you story over and over again to police, how many times you have to tell your story, how many times your character is questioned when you're not the perpetrator you're the victim," she said.ĀAccording to the Connecticut State Department of Education spokesperson Kelly Donnelly, it is within the Board of Education's purview to create policies which limit student athlete participation based on factors such as pending criminal cases.ĀNEW COACH, NEW DIRECTIONĀDunaj resigned from his position as head coach in January, following a 6-4 season marred by the hazing scandal.ĀThe school district is currently in the process of hiring a new coach, Torrington High School alumnus Gaitan Rodriguez, a social worker and assistant coach at Wallingford's Sheehan High School.ĀRodriguez, who played for the Red Raiders in the 1990s, has accepted the job offer from McKenna and is awaiting confirmation from the Board of Education.ĀIn an interview confirming Rodriguez's hire, McKenna alluded to a change in culture for the football program.Ā"We were looking for someone who's going to develop young men academically and socially. Football is not the big thing that people are going to learn. What they get out of sports is way beyond what they learn on the field," said McKenna at the time."I think Gaitan Rodriguez is the guy who can do that. I've known him since he was a freshman in high school. He's absolutely what we were looking for." Digital Subscribe to Home Delivery and SAVE!

U.S. News: USC Moore School remains tops for international business
By Peggy Binette, firstname.lastname@example.com, 803-777-7704
The University of South Carolina is being recognized for having the nation's top undergraduate international business program, according to rankings released today (Sept. 12) in U.S. News & World Report's 2013 "America's Best Colleges Guide."
USC also earned accolades for its student-enrichment programs, including its first-year seminar, undergraduate research and academically-themed residential communities, at a time when the university saw a rise in its student academic profile.
Across the USC system, USC Aiken is No. 1 among public regional colleges in the South. USC Upstate moved up one spot to No. 2, and USC Beaufort held at No. 8.
In addition to earning the No. 1 international business ranking for the 16th consecutive year, the Darla Moore School of Business broke into the top 40 for overall business education, moving up a spot from 41 last year. The school's undergraduate risk management and insurance program is ranked No. 9, moving up a spot and listed among the top 10 programs for a third consecutive year.
"We are delighted that the Darla Moore School of Business has retained the No. 1 ranking for our undergraduate international business program, as well as another increase in our overall undergraduate programs ranking," said Dean Hildy Teegen. "This continued leadership in international business education is a tribute to faculty and staff who are dedicated to an innovative, responsive curriculum and programming that exceeds expectations for our students, our partners in the business community and our alumni. It reflects our commitment to produce the future leaders in global business, and to fuel economic development and prosperity, here in South Carolina and beyond."
Provost Michael Amiridis said student quality and success, marked by a rise in SAT scores, retention and graduation rates, combined with the continued recognition of USC's student enrichment programs, affirms USC's commitment to academic excellence.
"The important academic indicators clearly show that we continue to improve the quality of the education provided to our students," Amiridis said. "The University of South Carolina and its faculty and students are much better than the overall reputational ranking created by the U.S. News calculations, and I'm confident that our recent innovations, such as the new Carolina Core Curriculum and USC Connect, will eventually have their impact and result in higher future rankings."
A section titled "A Focus on Student Success" cites USC for having one of the nation's best student-enrichment programs for First-Year Experience and Learning Communities.
This fall USC welcomed more than 4,600 freshmen, 80 percent of whom are taking the University 101 course, which is a key component of the First-Year Experience, which helps students transition successfully to college life.
More than 2,100 undergraduates live in one of 20 USC living-and-learning communities. These academically themed communities are an integral part of the student experience, connecting undergraduates to the institution academically and socially.
This year, USC opened the International House at Maxcy College, bringing American and international students together as a community to have the opportunity to learn, experience and share each other's cultures. USC also is home to Preston Residential College, a community established in 1995 that features a faculty principal who lives in the residence and 40 faculty members who mentor, dine and attend activities with student residents. Other communities are dedicated to engineering and computing, journalism, music, Capstone Scholars, the S.C. Honors College and the Healthy Carolina wellness community.
Additionally, the university was hailed for undergraduate research/creative projects, an offering it was recognized for in the 2011 rankings. USC launched its Office of Undergraduate Research in 2005. It includes the Magellan Scholar program, which helps undergraduate students pursue research in all disciplines, from science, technology and medicine to theater, music and art. Since 2006, the program has awarded more than $2 million in competitive awards to drive undergraduate achievement. This month USC announced Caravel, an undergraduate research journal that will launch this spring.
USC was ranked 55 among all national public universities.

"You are my inspiration"
"The pattern does not come available"
"I have several friends that are in the medical profession. This idea is awesome. So many times large clinics or hospitals require you to wear solid color scrubs. Here is a great way to say a little about yourself...your hobbies, vacations, pets etc. I just love the idea and will be making several."
"This summer sun dress looks so comfortable to wear. The V-front and V-back as well as the elastic fitted empire-line waist, and the gently gathered skirt gives this dress its style. Just two pattern pieces and a soft knit fabric will make this easy to wear summer frock. I have a pretty patterned knit that will be perfect for this dress"
"Love this pretty summer dress. The instructions indicate only one yard of fabric is needed to make the dress. If the adult version of the dress turns out somewhat short, easy to add some cotton eyelet or satin ribbon to the hemline to lengthen. Less elastic lines of gathers might be a way to add some length as well."

Haylie Bell was supposed to be a starter for the basketball team as a sophomore two years ago.
But Bell was struck in the back of the head by an errant knee while playing goalie for Highland in a JV girls' soccer game. That injury derailed her plans, but after a lengthy recovery period, she feels at full strength for her senior campaign on the hardwood.
"This is such a short piece of my life," Bell said. "Being sick was a drag, but I knew that I had to sit out to get healthy. I'm ready to do what I need to for us to win."
She finished that soccer game her sophomore year, but she found herself in blinding pain that encased her body and mind 24 hours later.
She was diagnosed with a concussion a traumatic brain injury that would keep her away from the classroom and off the basketball court.
For eight months, Bell battled pain and fatigue that forced her to sleep upwards of 13 hours a day. The normally high-energy athlete was sidelined to combat the migraines and searing pain. She missed most of her sophomore year because she was bedridden and worked with her teachers to pass her classes.
Worst of all, she wasn't in uniform when the Rams started their season despite being projected as a starter. She played soccer but loved basketball. She was crestfallen to learn from doctors that she shouldn't play and instead focus on her recovery.
"Everything hurt," Bell said. "I was totally flat-lined. I simply didn't feel like myself. The hardest part was simply not having the strength to sit through class."
The medicine reduced the swelling over time, and Bell began feeling like herself after numerous visits to doctors. Her energy increased, and the attacks from the concussion dissipated. At the beginning of her junior year, she felt ready to go back out for basketball.
"The best feeling was just being able to go back to school and not worrying about having to be excused to go home," Bell said. "More than anything, I was excited to play basketball again."
Her parents were supportive but nervous about Bell returning to contact sports. She chose not to play soccer her junior year, and by the time she went out for basketball that season, the lingering effects of the concussion were all but gone. She felt weak from not having exercised but was motivated about returning to the team and becoming a starter.
"Those first few weeks were the worst. I wasn't in shape," Bell said through a smile. "I worked so hard to get ready and to get back on the court."
Highland's girls basketball team is in a rebuilding phase. Coach Jeremy Chatterton took the reins last season and saw something impressive in Bell. He said he recognized more than a gifted athlete but also saw somebody with the drive to persevere through adversity.
"It's remarkable what she did to be able to come back to basketball," Chatterton said. "Most people would have quit, but she has great drive."
The Rams won one game during Bell's return last season, but that midseason victory was the turning point in her recovery. She felt like herself. The pain and discomfort from the concussion were gone, and the joy from that victory kept her determined to turn around Highland's season.
"It's tough not winning a lot of games, but beating Murray gave us the motivation to finish the season," Bell said. "We're trying to build a new winning tradition."

During her recovery, Bell realized that she would like to study nursing in college.
Bell is the only senior on the Highland girls basketball team.

Jurors in the trial for a slain San Bernardino TV repairman have reached a verdict, officials said.
But their decision will not be announced until Tuesday morning.
The jury panel announced Monday afternoon that they had a verdict but because of time constraints, Judge Michael Smith decided it will be read the following day inside a San Bernardino Superior courtroom.
Defendants Laurie Cone and Gary Gallion have been charged in killing and robbing her husband last year.
John "Jack" Cone was found beaten and killed inside his home on Sierra Way on April 2, 2012.
Several guns, televisions, ammunition and a truck were taken from Cone's residence that night.
Officials believe Laurie Cone solicited Gallion to do the crimes while she was at a casino with her daughter.
Opening statements began on Feb. 26.
During the trial Laurie Cone and Gallion both took the stand.
Not only did they deny involvement in the crimes, both defendants said they had never met the other until their first court hearing.
The jury panel began deliberating on Thursday afternoon. They resumed deliberations about 8:40 a.m. Monday morning and announced they had a verdict shortly after 3:30 p.m.

Sunday's weather
February 10, 2013
A few more snow showers will affect Weld County today in the wake of the storm that pushed across Colorado overnight.
Expect intermittent light snow with an inch or 2 in spots, but generally little accumulation is expected. It will be a colder, more blustery day however. Temperatures will reach the low-30s for highs.
Monday may still offer some lingering light snow from time to time but Tuesday and Wednesday will bring quieter weather. We're already tracking another round of snow for later in the week.
It's like lifting cement. They say it's 2 feet, but I think it's more like 3 feet.
— Michael Levesque, Massachusetts resident

At the Larkspur Library on Magnolia Avenue, delicate rose petals blanket the top of the mahogany card catalog. "We have patrons who bring fresh flowers every time they check out or return a book," says director Frances Gordon. She points to vases scattered about the library, where stained-glass windows cast a silvery glow. "Larkspur has retained its neighborhood feel in the midst of 21st-century development," she says, adding a proud note: "We've stayed on the destination map without becoming overly touristy."
Having built its reputation as a mecca for peaceful escape, Larkspur once enjoyed the nickname "The Great Sanatorium." Today, the town lures for other reasons. For one, foodies journey here for Bradley Ogden's sensational cuisine (Lark Creek Inn and Yankee Pier). And Larkspur serves as a primary residence for many who prefer its quiet charm over nearby San Francisco's urbanism.
"Larkspur is a bedroom community," says Diane Greer, a former Larkspur real estate agent who still sells many homes here. "And it's one affordable to those who have 'made it,' economically speaking."
Still, Larkspur resists homogenization, and its eclectic houses demonstrate diversity. Magnolia Avenue cuts through the heart of downtown and cuddles the area's most prized historic houses. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, downtown Larkspur hasn't changed much in the past century.
Sandwiched between Corte Madera and Mill Valley to the south and Greenbrae and San Rafael to the north, Larkspur enjoys a compact spot in these north-of-Golden-Gate-Bridge communities. At Larkspur Landing, city-hungry residents and commuters catch the ferry for 30- to 50-minute crossings via San Francisco Bay to The City.
"We do have easy access to San Francisco. But to be honest, if I'm given the choice, I usually stay here," says Catlyn Fendler. A San Rafael resident, Catlyn once lived near the Larkspur Library, in a historic cottage owned by her husband's family, and she now owns property here. "My Texas brother came out to visit us once, and he walked around town, looked at the neighborhoods, and said, 'This is Mayberry.'"
Larkspur's bulletin boards read much like Mayberry's might: adult softball and cricket leagues; picnics at Piper Park; outdoor movies.
"I used to come to Larkspur with my father," says orchestra leader Earl Heckscher. His father, bandleader Ernie Heckscher, played for Larkspur's Rosebowl dances in the 1940s. "That was the Big Band era, and the small-town coziness that existed then is still alive and well," Earl says. Now living in next-door Kentfield, he hangs out in Larkspur. "It speaks of a way of life one has to search far and wide to find," he says.
Flowers spread this feeling not only at the library. In a coffee shop just off Magnolia Street, a basket full of blossoms welcomes patrons. "Free Roses," reads the sign. "Have one, and have a nice day."

Via Privata Vincenzo Forcella, 13
Milan, Italy 20144
+39 02 8739 2443
Outlet shopping is a must in Milan, and there are tons of choices for scoring discounted Prada, Miu Miu, Jil Sander, and the like. DMagazine is notable because its discounts are particularly deep (like, more than 60 percent off those aforementioned names). It does require some hunting, but it's worthwhile—especially if you don't have time to travel outside of the city walls to the world-famous Milan and Prada outlets.
Via Niccolò Paganini, 2
Milan, Italy 20131
Up-and-coming accessories designer Giancarlo Petriglia recently opened an art gallery/vintage and antiques shop that also carries his fall 2013 handbag collection, which was inspired by early 20th-century designers Madame Grès, Schiaparelli, and Vionnet. Each Made-in-Italy bag is unique in its shape and construction. There are quirky box styles accented with pink cobra print, but also more traditional jewel-studded clutches, all made in the softest Nappa leather. There is also a tiny kitchen run by Petriglia's partner, Alessandro Lo Piccolo, the restaurateur behind the city's popular bistro, The Small.

Now that we've got your attention with fancy words like "sustainable" and "hybrid", we actually have an interesting article we found some time back that discusses the merits of education that is a blend of online and in-person activities (hence the "hybrid" terminology!).
Sustainable Hybrids - Inside Higher Ed
What does this have to do with Multnomah?
Turns out, little ol' Multnomah is already doing this with what we call "distributed learning" at the Seminary. We call it Multnomah Connect. Not only can you take seminary classes online, but you can take them at our Reno-Tahoe or Anchorage sites as well. Then, when you're ready, you can finish it all up with a visit to the Portland campus. (Somewhere in here, we hear the word "sustainable" too. Yikes!)

Crane Cams Hydraulic Roller Camshafts
Nearly all pushrod-style engines over the last twenty years use a hydraulic roller camshaft because it's the best way to achieve a wider torque band in popular small blocks and big blocks. A roller camshaft's ability to quickly open/close valves allows for more advanced cam profiles while a hydraulic lifter body eliminates the need to constantly set valve lash. These cams also have exceptional "flat" power curves and are often retrofitted into older engines.
