Genesee CC Men's Lacrosse Opens 2017 Season as Nation's Top Team
BATAVIA, NY (02/27/2017) (readMedia)-- The defending National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) National Champion GCC men's lacrosse team will open its 2017 season on Mar. 4, and will do so as the No. 1 ranked team in the country. It is the first time in the program's history that the Cougars are the top-ranked team in the NJCAA National Poll.
Genesee will return nine sophomores from last year's team including top scorer Pat Van Bortle and goalie Darin Eakins. Van Bortle, a first team All-American, accounted for 118 points and led the country in goals with 69. Eakins was a second team all-region selection and named NJCAA National Tournament Defensive MVP. He started 16 games last season for GCC.
Also returning for the Cougars will be midfielder Sherman Williams, who started in all 19 games for Genesee in 2016, Chase Neibert, a defender who saw action in 12 contests last spring, and Davis Prince, who tallied the second highest points total on last year's team with 101.
GCC will open its season with three consecutive home games, including Mar. 4 against Tompkins-Cortland CC, Mar. 11 against No. 5 Community College of Baltimore County-Essex and Mar. 15 against Monroe CC. The Cougars will host No. 2 Onondaga CC in a rematch of last year's NJCAA National Championship on Mar. 25 and travel to play No. 3 Nassau CC on Mar. 18 and No. 6 Howard CC on Apr. 8. In all, Genesee will host six regular season games and travel for six road contests.
Genesee Community College athletics program endeavors to provide a quality and competitive intercollegiate athletics program consistent with the National Junior Collegiate Athletics Association (NJCAA) philosophy and the overall educational mission of Genesee Community College. Participation in collegiate athletics should be an extension of the total educational experience for the student athlete. The inherent philosophy emphasizes the athletic setting as a classroom used to teach character, commitment, work ethic, respect for differences, and the importance of sacrifice, teamwork, and cooperation.

I always like to check out rappers from other countries. It's interesting to watch the genre spread across the world, and it's fascinating to see how young people in other countries are putting their own spin on rapping. To be completely honest, though, I rarely go back to hip-hop that isn't in English.
That said, I can't stop listening to Aron Can, a 16-year-old rapper from Iceland. Maybe it's because Icelandic is such a pleasant language. Maybe it's because understanding lyrics has become less important to me, as a fan of newcomers like Young Thug and Desiigner, who are both supremely entertaining despite the fact that half of their lyrics are indiscernible.
I first heard about Aron Can when Conner Youngblood emailed me after a trip to Iceland. "As you can imagine, Iceland is pretty tiny, Reykjavik is pretty tiny, but for some reason the rap scene there seemed huge," Conner said in an email. "I was going to this one club every night with Icelandic friends called Prikið (Prikid) and the place was an absolute zoo.
"Some of the friends I was staying with had shown me some of Aron's music earlier in the week (as well as a bunch of other Icelandic rap... and there's a lot of it) and took me out to one of his album launch show at Prikið. I'm pretty sure the kid is like 16 or 17, so not entirely sure how he was even allowed in the bar at that time of night, but people absolutely lost their shit once he started. All of the lights hanging from the rafters were violently swinging around, people were climbing on shit, jumping off shit, and a lot of pushing. A lot of pushing…people really like pushing each other in Iceland..but that was kinda every night."
Aron Can's video for "Enginn Mórall/Grunaður" was my starting point, and I was instantly drawn in. The dreary visuals served as a hypnotizing accompaniment to ominous trap-influenced production, and Aron weaves his native tongue into it effortlessly, with a flow you'd expect from a teenage kid who likes Future. Except in Icelandic.
Can you introduce yourself?
My name is Aron Can Gultekin and I'm a 16-year-old musician. My mom is from Iceland and my dad's from Turkey. I've lived in Iceland all my life but I visit my family in Turkey every summer.
When did you start making music?
I started writing rhymes and rapping when I was 10 years old.
What music did you grow up listening to, and when did you get into hip-hop?
I grew up listening to a variety of music. My mom listens to all kinds of music but I guess rock music is what she listens to the most. My dad listens to Turkish music so it was all mixed up in the house. My introduction to hip-hop was some Turkish rap group when I was seven years old.
Is there a hip-hop scene in Iceland?
Yeah, it feels like all eyes are on hip-hop right now in Iceland. The scene has been getting bigger every year. There are some big rappers here and they're kind of like the new rock/pop stars. There are also a lot of young rappers coming up that are really good.
Who are your favorite rappers right now?
My favorite rappers right now are J. Cole, Young Thug (Jeffery?), Drake, Future and Lil Uzi to name a few but honestly I haven't had a lot of time to listen to anything other than the things we are cooking up lately.
Did you ever consider rapping in English? Why did you decide to rap in Icelandic? Are there many other rappers who rap in Icelandic?
I've often thought about rapping in English but I'm not stressing it right now. I like writing in my native tongue and I feel my lyrics are different from what everybody else is doing, not that everybody else is doing the same thing necessarily. I've always listened to US music and me and my producers are obviously heavily inspired by it so it'll definitely happen one day but for now I'm good.
I've always found it really hard to listen to rappers speaking a different language, but was immediately drawn to your music. Do you aim to be accessible beyond Iceland?
I feel good music is good music no matter where you're from. Obviously music in English will always have the most reach but if it sounds right it sounds right, right?.
I see you're racking up some big numbers on Spotify and YouTube. Do you already have a big following outside of Iceland?
I've gotten messages from people all over the world that listen to my music and that makes me really proud. I feel it's a validation that we're doing something right and that's a great feeling. I have no idea how big the following is but hopefully it'll continue to spread.
Who are the other guys in the video for "Grunaður"?
Those are some of my best friends. We were just playing, trying to make the video fun. We came up with the idea, got another friend to direct it and managed to do a one-take. It was a fun day.
What are the songs "Enginn Mórall" and "Grunaður" about? What do those titles mean?
I'm not sure how the word translates to English but having a "mórall" over something I guess just means having a guilty conscience or something, feeling bad or in low spirits. Enginn (No) Mórall means just that. Not feeling bad or stressing over things. Just making good and not taking life too serious. That's basically what the song is about as well as just me and my friends' lives.
Grunaður means suspect (or being a suspect) and that's what the song is about. Me and my friends are always suspected of something, ha.
What's next for you?
Just keep on making music. Time will tell where that'll take me. Oh and shout out to my producers, NoJudgingEyes skuhhh.

Here at 1320 Cambridge, Ann Arbor, MI 48104 a new phenomenon is developing. It's called "No pants weekend." The concept is rather simple. There is a drying rack next to the front door. When you walk in, you remove your pants and put them on the rack. When you leave, you have the choice (but not the obligation) to put your pants back on. I invite you all to participate in this special event from wherever you may be. Enjoy your newfound freedom.

After four years of siege and bombardment, the evacuation is underway of civilians and rebels from embattled Daraya, southwest of Syria's capital Damascus.
Rebels and the government struck an agreement to hand over control of the city in exchange for safe passage. Under the terms of the deal, about 4,000 civilians will be transported to temporary accommodation outside of Damascus. Approximately 700 fighters will head to rebel-held Idlib after surrender...

Acrimony: sharpness, harshness, stinging bitterness in speech and manner
I visited my Tax Preparer yesterday and while doing what he has done for me for years, he posed a profound question—one worth repeating: "Isn't this a crazy time? Have you ever seen anything like it?"
My immediate response was "No sir, I have not. America may have reached some sort of apex. Even if it takes eight years, or eighteen, we need to get over this fix we're in right now and move on."
The Great Depression (I was born in 1927), President Franklin D. Roosevelt's first 100 days in office, World War II, Vietnam and the Peace Protests, Nixon's abuse of power, the fall of the Berlin Wall and the dissolution of the USSR, were spikes; times when there was reason to complain strenuously, but as I look back through nine decades, never has there been as much complaining from as many parties as there is now. (Alright, I did leave out Bernie Madoff, but feel free to add to the list.)
And it's not just derisive words and divisive action. Not since the original Tea Party and the Boston massacre, not even the persistent call to make peace with the North Vietnamese—never have I seen so many hordes of Americans so suddenly apt to take advantage of that right so quickly and rightly added to our Constitution in the First Amendment: to petition our government for a redress of grievances. (What would have happened if King George III had responded positively early on, to our appeals?)
I can hardly blame our elected representatives for shirking from meeting with angry, confused masses of people whom I often call the "scufflers in the crowd," where overheated people stand and ventilate their spleen in shouting matches. More and more often, the people you want to reach at such gatherings, the principal speakers, are not likely to change their minds, even if you and others came with a guillotine.
I recently read an excellent article on how to complain to our officials. Do not waste your time signing one of those On-Line petitions. According to Kathryn Schulz, writer for American Chronicles in The New Yorker, they are vastly ignored by our representatives, and more importantly, persons on their staffs.
Okay, you wake up day wishing to call the Senator or Member of Congress in order to give him or her a piece of your mind—You and sixty-some-odd-thousand (60,000+) callers each day, 22-million calls each year, pouring into the overloaded digital switchboard of the delegates to Washington—enough at times to force it into long shutdown spasms. If anything, you get a recorded invitation to speak your piece, able to be delivered in a specified time frame, a recorded thank you and goodbye.
Writes Ms Schulz: "No matter how a message comes in—by phone, eMail, fax, delivery service, postperson or carrier pigeon, it is entered into a software program. (That might one day result in your receiving some sort of acknowledgment of receipt, such as "Senator Whatchumacalitt thanks you for your input…")
Members of the Senate alone calculated that it processed 6.4-million pieces of mail delivered to their "in-box" in 2016.
Still, This take away: The best and most effective way of getting through to your Representative or Senator, is by sending a brief statement by regular mail.
Better yet, if you're really serious, is to hire one of those expensive lobbyists, many of whom were once members of the House and Senate, themselves.
In my opinion the best thing is to receive a letter sent by the free franking privilege from one of one the Senators or Representatives, that without asking for a donation to their campaign, only solicits your opinion on a matter of public importance.

Varoufakis claims had approval to plan parallel banking system
"[Wolfgang] Schaeuble, the finance minister of Germany, is hell-bent on effecting a Grexit so nothing is over. But let me be very specific and very precise on this. The prime minister before he became PM, before we won the election in January, had given me the green light to come up with a Plan B. And I assembled a very able team, a small team as it had to be because that had to be kept completely under wraps for obvious reasons. And we had been working since the end of December or beginning of January on creating one. But let me give you if you are interested some of the political and the institutional impediments that made it hard for us to complete the work and indeed to activate it. The work was more or less complete: We did have a Plan B but the difficulty was to go from the five people who were planning it to the 1,000 people that would have to implement it. For that I would have to receive another authorisation which never came."
Väga huvitav jutt Varoufakiselt. Neil oli plaan B, miks Tsipras seda ei rakendanud, jääb ilmselt alati meile teadmata. Schäuble ei usu, et eurosüsteem on jätkusuutlik ja saab ilma fiskaalsete ülekanneteta töötada.

Happy Easter
Happy Easter to everyone. It was a cold Easter here in the South so EC wore her bunny dress with a sweater and Knox wore what he has been wearing this winter. No shorts when it is in the 40's. We went to church and then had plans to eat lunch with friends. However, no holiday would be complete for the Redmond family without someone getting sick. By noon EC was running a fever. She came home from church and fell asleep on the sofa. She was fine by that night - oh well. Thankfully we had already hunted Easter eggs over and over the days before.

i've come to realize how often people rely on this type of conversation, and as interesting as it can be, i've started to appreciate it less and less. i've heard my name being mentioned in someone's room the other day, which was weird because they could be talking about anything, good or bad, but it's still pretty uncomfortable. also, i know countless groups of friends that have been splintered on account of this. so about my week...
i first noticed that this type of conversation came up in a few forms: there was 1) anecdotal stories, which was just a funny observation someone had noted about another person, which came off as more of harmless banter. then there was 2) "mother hen circles", where a group of three to five people gathered and skipped through topics of people who weren't in the room. finally there was 3) malicious conversation, where the intent was to defame the individual who was not present.
so what is there to do if you do not want to partake? not inviting this type of conversation by brushing off comments about other people by stating something positive and changing topics is probably the best option.
sure, we all like to blow off steam and vent every once in a while. just make sure it's not always at some other persons expense in front of a large group.

Rob Mericle - Only A Miracle Will Put Him In Jail
I just read on timesleader.com that NEPA business and realty tycoon or should I say baboon Rob Mericle may have his plea bargain agreement with the Feds amended. Believe it or not, the G-Men want to change it from the minimum sentence to more up to the max for obstructing and impeding the administration of justice. Well, its about freakin' time. This slob has been suckling off the teat of the system for his entire life. He buys and develops properties in bogus KOZ zones and pockets tons of dough. If you are not familiar with the KOZ zones, these are properties that have their taxes deferred for a period of time to allow the owners to fix them up and use them without getting burdened with high taxes. They were made to help distressed areas like NEPA attract businesses. Of course, this guy has taken total advantage of this while pocketing millions. He is just like our friend Thom "The Tick" Greco. Rob "The Maggot" Mericle was caught up in the Cash For Kids scheme and so far has been Scott Free of any possible jail time. He pleaded guilty to being connected with the corrupt judges Ciaveralla and Conahan. So far Rob "The Maggot" Mericle has paid $2,100,000.00 in restitution to fund programs that improve the welfare of children. I wonder how much he made on the Cash For Kids scheme? I would think a boat load more than he is dishing out! This guy is as slimy as a maggot in a trash can in the summer and needs to be checked into the crowbar hotel. The Feds must have something more on "The Maggot" and lets hope they do. Its time to Sing Rob! My guess is that he will slither his way out of any slammer time and continue to milk dry the bosom of NEPA. Maybe, just maybe a Mericle will happen?

R2G - Right To Gripe
- AnonymousJanuary 31, 2011 at 5:40 AM
What Mericle did was wrong, but don't throw out the baby with the bath water. This guy took a lot of shit properties and turned them around. That he did them for profit is called business and as a result of his business he is directly and indirectly responsible for thousands of jobs in NEPA. If the guy decided to just shut down and take his money the unemployment rate in the area would skyrocket. I hate to let facts get in the way of a good gripe.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJanuary 31, 2011 at 7:52 AM
Make no mistake here, Mericle is out for Mericle and no one else. Yes, he did take these blighted and unwanted properties and turned them around and created some jobs. Kudo's to him for that. However, he is a cutthroat businessman and made sure he would turn a nice profit from them. I have had dealings with him through local government and let me tell you he talks like he is the biggest savior in the world but in reality he is not. Ask Forty Fort Borough about how he is boning them out of the proper tax payments on the old ACME warehouse complex.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJanuary 31, 2011 at 11:03 AM
R2G, that is called business. I don't think him anything but a good business person. And the goal of business is to make the most profit possible. However, in his quest for profit he has created jobs and turned around some real shit holes. If he didn't take the risk, how many eyesores would still be around. What would the old Acme warehouse be today? Now it is full of businesses.ReplyDelete
If he beats Forty Fort Borough out of taxes, whose fault is it? His for trying to maximize his profit or the Borough for failure to collect them?
- AnonymousJanuary 31, 2011 at 1:28 PM
Forty Fort Borough had to spend unnecessary tax payers dollars because Mericle took them to court to fight the proper tax payment. It appears, and I will say appears that he called one of his cronies over at the courthouse and came out with the verdict on his side. Yes, he is a business man and a good one at that. You are correct in saying that he has created jobs and fixed up blighted properties. However, lets not forget his involvement in the Cash For Kids scheme and that makes him a scumbag in my eyes.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJanuary 31, 2011 at 3:58 PM
If I read correctly he wasn't in on the kids for cash. He was doing the building and paid a "finders fee" to get the contract to construct it and then he was done. The b.s. that went on after was after he was no longer involved. I could be wrong about that though. I thought that was another big shot.ReplyDelete
- R2G FanFebruary 1, 2011 at 8:41 AM
I have been following this back and forth and it is nice to read civilized discourse. R2G it seems that your personal dislike for Mericle, may be influencing your posting. He was not involved int the Kids for Cash portion. The poster is correct, he was only involved in the construction phase. The shenanigans that occurred later did not involve him.ReplyDelete
I respect your right to gripe, however, factual accuracy should be important when discussing another person, no matter one's personal opinion.
Mericle's alleged and admitted crimes have nothing to do with the actual kids for cash.
Your venom may very well be founded, but the return on investment the people of NEPA have received from whatever considerations Mericle were given is probably close to 3:1.
Don't forget all the small business, restaurants, suppliers, etc.. that made money and employed people because of Mericle's projects.
I think it is only proper to keep the kids for cash aspect in the proper perspective and only attack those directly involved in that particular action.
Thank you for allowing me to write, I enjoy your site.
- AnonymousFebruary 2, 2011 at 1:26 PM
Thank you R2G fan. Yes, Mericle was only involved in the building part of the facility for juviniles. I lumped him into the Kids For Cash group and maybe should recant that one. I always try to get as much of the facts as possible and YES, I do throw in my opinion just to get the juices flowing as I have on this one. Keep on Griping!ReplyDelete

Captured Taliban spokesman claims militant leader lives in Pakistan
KABUL, Afghanistan -- A captive Taliban spokesman has told Afghan agents that the hard-line militia's chief Mullah Omar lives in southwestern Pakistan and is protected by that country's powerful intelligence service, according to video of his questioning given to reporters Wednesday. Pakistan called the claim "totally baseless."
Omar's whereabouts have been a mystery since he went into hiding after the Taliban was toppled by a U.S.-led invasion after the 9-11 attacks. The U.S. government has offered a $10 million bounty for his capture.
Mohammad Hanif, a Taliban spokesman apprehended Monday near the border with Pakistan, talked about Omar during his interrogation by Afghanistan's intelligence service, which distributed to reporters a video CD of what it said was his questioning.
"He lives in Quetta," Hanif said of Omar on the video, which showed him sitting in an oversized chair being peppered with questions by Afghan agents in a dimly lit room. "He is protected by ISI," Hanif said in a quiet voice, referring to Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence agency.
President Hamid Karzai made a similar allegation during an interview with The Associated Press last year, saying Omar lives in Quetta and is protected by Pakistan's security services.
Pakistan's Interior Minister Aftab Khan Sherpao rejected Hanif's claim on Wednesday, saying "this is totally baseless."
"We have no information on the whereabouts of Mullah Omar. He is not living in Pakistan," he told the AP.
"Afghan intelligence has made contradictory statements since the arrest of this so-called spokesman of Taliban. We don't know who this person is," Sherpao said.
Hanif's predecessor as Taliban spokesman, Mullah Hakim Latifi, was arrested in 2005 by Pakistani police.
In the CD recording of his interrogation, the 26-year-old Hanif also alleges the former head of Pakistan's intelligence service, Hamid Gul, was supporting Taliban militants in their fight against Afghan and foreign troops.
Sayed Ansari, the spokesman for Afghanistan's intelligence service, said Hanif's real name is Abdulhaq Haji Gulroz, and he is an Afghan from Nangarhar's Chaparhar district. Ansari said Hanif has been living in the northwestern Pakistani city of Peshawar.
Ansari has given conflicting accounts of Hanif's arrest. He said Tuesday that Hanif was nabbed after crossing the border from Pakistan; on Wednesday he told reporters the arrest was made about 15 miles outside the Nangahar provincial capital of Jalalabad.
Another purported Taliban spokesman, Qari Yousef Ahmadi, confirmed Hanif's arrest in a telephone call from an undisclosed location. He said the Taliban's governing body has appointed a new spokesman, Zadiullah Mujahid, and the arrest would not affect the Taliban campaign.
Western and Afghan officials have claimed a number of recent successes against Taliban leaders.
On Tuesday, NATO-led troops and Afghan forces detained a Taliban commander during a raid on a compound in southern Afghanistan, the alliance said. NATO spokesman Squadron Leader Dave Marsh said the militant leader led insurgents in the Panjwayi district of neighboring Kandahar province, where last summer NATO troops waged their biggest ground offensive in the Western alliance's history.
"This seizure of a Taliban commander once again shows that there is nowhere to hide for insurgent leaders," Marsh said.
The militant, whom NATO did not identify, had fled a recent offensive by Afghan and NATO forces in the south of the country, the alliance said. He was detained in the Gereshk district of Helmand province.
Last month, a U.S.-led coalition airstrike killed Mullah Akhtar Mohammad Osmani, a key associate of Omar and the highest-ranking Taliban leader slain by the U.S.-led coalition since the 2001 offensive launched against the regime for hosting al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden.
Over the past year, the Taliban have launched a record number of attacks, and some 4,000 people have died violently, according to a tally by The Associated Press based on reports from Afghan, NATO and coalition officials.
Associated Press Writers Amir Shah in Kabul, Noor Khan in Kandahar and Munir Ahmad in Islamabad, Pakistan, contributed to this report.

Financial Times: Initially, the most striking thing about Gianluca Marcianò is not his taste for high-quality fabric, nor the warmth of his manner. It is his Italian accent. It is an accent cultivated and guarded closely, he says. "These days I find myself thinking in English. Even if I'm talking in other languages, it's through English." A strong accent is his badge of resistance. "It's fighting against the fact that I stopped thinking in Italian."
Marcianò, 40, has spent most of his professional life outside his home country, hopping between opera houses in the Middle East and across the Caucasus. In late 2015, he settled in Yerevan, Armenia's capital, as guest principal conductor of the state opera house. Yet even if he is based in Yerevan, Marcianò remains global in outlook and persuasion. Next month he will spend five weeks in Beirut, at the Al Bustan Festival, where he is artistic director. In March and April he will conduct at the inaugural White Nights festival in Dubai. I catch Marcianò while he is briefly in London. We meet at the Gilbert Scott bar in the St Pancras Renaissance Hotel. Marcianò is dressed in a fine blue-knit waistcoat worn over a crisp white shirt. He orders a cappuccino and fiddles with his wedding ring.
In order to conduct orchestras from different countries all around the world, you need to be a psychologist as well as a musician, he says. "It doesn't work well with a British orchestra if you are authoritarian and you scream. But if you are nice, polite, you pay them respect but at the same time you can put on some nice self-ironic humour, then it will make everything much easier." Russian orchestras "need the strong hand", however. Italian musicians can be "all over the place" at first. The discipline of Japanese musicians, meanwhile, is "incredible". "They all come with the full score, the conductor's score, so they know the score like you do," he says. "While in China, not so much." Marcianò was born in Lerici, a town on the Italian Riviera that was popular with Romantic poets in the 19th century; Shelley died in a storm while sailing there in 1822. Marcianò does not come from a musical family. Rather, he was a "very excited kid", and when a teacher suggested he channel his energy into learning an instrument he chose the piano. "At first I didn't like it, but for me it was very easy to learn," he says. "Then I became a fanatic." He set out to become a professional pianist, but became disillusioned. "It was a very lonely kind of life," he says. "The dialogue was between me and the instrument." With conducting, he would be able to make music yet also be part of a communal experience. Marcianò left Italy, taking a job as an assistant conductor in Ljubljana, Slovenia. He made his debut in Zagreb, Croatia, soon after, conducting Verdi's Nabucco. "The first time I approached the orchestra was strange because I was coming from touching the instrument, which produces sound, and going into feeling the sound when my hands were not touching anything," he says. "It was strange, like walking on air . . . Then all this disappeared and I was just inside the music and I just remember the beginning and the end." Marcianò feels at home in the Caucasus; a previous post was at the Tbilisi state opera and ballet theatre in Georgia. "I like these countries because they have a little bit of Europe — Armenia is Christian — but they are also Asian," he says. "There are two mentalities." He moved to Yerevan because he "fell in love with a wonderful girl", a violinist in the Youth State Orchestra of Armenia, whom he met at the festival in Beirut. (The wedding ring is new; they married last summer.) He adapted to the city's languid rhythm and the generosity of Armenian hospitality. "We lost it a little bit in Europe," he says. "We have so many deadlines. In London, if you want to meet a friend, you have to book the schedule." Marcianò plans to learn Armenian, though admits it is a difficult language, with its own alphabet and uncommon grammar. Beyond friends and family, what he misses most about Italy is the food. The first thing he does on landing in the country is go to a bar for a typical breakfast of espresso and cornetto, a croissant-like pastry full of custard cream. And for a man brought up by the ocean, living in a landlocked country is a challenge. "To eat a sea bass, you need to be on the sea," he says. "This, I miss." The opera house where Marcianò works is located on a square right in the centre of the city, and the streets radiate from the building like spokes on a wheel. Armenians, he says, love opera, especially the classics by Puccini or Verdi with dramatic endings "because they are very passionate". "It is a public that can give you a lot of satisfaction," he adds. "If they are happy, they really show it — you can really hear them screaming 'Bravo!'" Most encouraging is the enthusiastic attendance of many young people. "In Italy you see normally only pensioners. In Yerevan, the youth is going to performances, and this is amazing."

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree talks to South Berwick elementary students about healthy eating | Community Spirit
Title (Max 100 Characters)
Speaks at ribbon-cutting ceremony for school's new outdoor classroom and greenhouse
Congresswoman Chellie Pingree helped students at South Berwick Central Elementary School officially open their new outdoor classroom and greenhouse at a ribbon-cutting ceremony today.
"Maine schools are really making headway on the age-old question of how we get our kids to eat their vegetables. They've found that if students get their hands dirty growing vegetables, they're much more likely to eat them," said Pingree. "It's very exciting to see these kids so engaged while they're learning about habits that are healthy for them and their community. This is such a great project and it's wonderful to see all the community support behind it."
Students led Pingree on a tour of the new outdoor classroom and greenhouse—which they've named the Fresh Food Express—before a ribbon-cutting ceremony. She also talked to community leaders about the project.
Last year, local chef and author Kathy Gunst attended a White House reception to kick off First Lady Michelle Obama's Let's Move initiative, where she encouraged chefs across the country to help battle childhood obesity. Since then, Gunst has "adopted" the school and helped spearhead the project to build the outdoor classroom. (You can read her blog about the project at http://goo.gl/iGbtw.)
With the help and support of many community members and groups, the South Berwick Central School built the new facilities to help students become more active and eat healthier. Students were heavily engaged in the project, participating in a contest to name the greenhouse, coming up with healthy recipes with Gunst, and raising seedlings for the garden. (You can read a blog the school writes about the project at http://goo.gl/5Zf98.)
Pingree has been a committed advocate to helping schools offer healthier, locally produced foods to students. She recently reintroduced legislation that would allow schools to use a share of the funds they receive for commodities from the USDA to buy local food.
Pingree is a member of the House Agriculture Committee, and is a member of the subcommittee that oversees organic programs. She also operates an organic farm on the island of North Haven.

B3030 vs. B3000
Could anybody please advise me on meaningful differences between these two models? I am considering buying a used B3030 with cab that is currently available but I noticed on the current thread re cab noise in the B3030 that someone said that this problem had been improved on in the B3000. I already have a B3030 (without cab), and before I 'double-down' and buy a second 3030, I'd like to know if there is enough of an improvement with the B3000 so that I shouldn't buy another 3030 but rather look for a B3000. ThanksB3030, B2710, BH75, Kubota front and rear snowblowers, front and rear blades, disc, harrow, tiller, front and rear forks, post hole digger, landscape rake.

Betty Jane Moore Ashwill, 94, died early Thursday, March 16, 2017, in Fort Worth, Texas. She had six children, 10 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren. She was known as Betty, mommy, mom, grandma and mom-mommy by those who loved her.
This is her story, shared by her children:
Betty was born on her family's farm near Aullville, Missouri, on July 18, 1922, to Mildred Dyer Moore and Edwin Arnett Moore. She remembered walking through the fields at the farm. She had a pony, something most of us kids wanted when we were young.
Mildred died when Mom was 5, and she and her sister Colleen, then 3, moved to Kansas City, Missouri, to live with her fraternal grandparents while her father found work other than farming. She and her sister spent the summers with her aunt, Mary Vina Dyer Farley in Grain Valley, Missouri, where she and her husband Paul were teachers. Grandfather Moore eventually worked for the Works Progress Administration (WPA) in 1929 on the Bagnell Dam, which created the Ozarks, while Mom and Colleen grew up in the city.
In years when she had what we would think were "old-fashioned" views on life, we had to remember that she was raised by people who were adults before the turn of 1900.
Mom told stories of playing with her sister in the back stairwell of the house with cousins who lived in a third-floor apartment. She and her sister wore long cotton socks when they went to school, which they rolled down into pretty fat bobby socks, so they wouldn't look so outdated.
When they were teenagers, She and Colleen went to live with their Dad and Irene, his new wife, in Kansas City.
Mom graduated from high school when she was 16 and went to work for the phone company in Kansas City. She met Vincent Corwin Ashwill at a church friend's party where the party goers helped take down wallpaper in the girl's bedroom and then wrote on the walls. Mom was voted cutest girl at the party, and, as she said, "All the other girls were jealous!" Among other things during their courtship, they would ride their bicycles to the famous Swope Park.
Vince, who later became our Dad, joined the U.S. Army Air Forces after the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. In 1943, she took a train with her sister and Dad's mom to the base at Sioux Falls, South Dakota, to marry him on June 2. She told Grandmother Ashwill "that she better not cry" at the wedding. Mom wore a navy blue suit, since wedding gowns were in short supply during the war. Dad wore his uniform.
On Feb. 25, 1944, she gave birth to their first child, Sandra Colleen, with her sister Colleen, now a nurse, by her side. Dad was overseas for that birth, and the birth of Vincent Corwin Jr. (aka, Vin and Vince). They wanted six kids, and when Dad returned from the war, four more followed: Teresa Lynn, Russell Edwin, Vickie Deanne and Debra Jayne.
When we were growing up in West Des Moines, Iowa, or Farmers Branch, Texas and later, Hurst, Texas, we all experienced Mom in our own way.
She rescued us. One summer when Vince Jr. was the bicycling ice cream man in West Des Moines, a huge storm came and knocked down the tree in our backyard. She grabbed the younger kids, threw us in the back of the red Rambler station wagon, and we drove street after street until we found him sitting it out in someone's garage.
We had a fair share of cuts and falls that needed bandages or stitches, from Debbie hitting her head on a car after falling and being rushed to get stitches, to Russ playing with a chemistry set and coming out of his room with blood pumping from his hand. Same rush to get stitches.
She took care of us when we were sick. Teresa remembers the tea and toast that came with a sick day home from school. She helped us at school. When Russ' first grade teacher said he couldn't do the work, Mom figured out that he needed glasses to see the chalkboard. Debbie remembers as a child that she was afraid of a giant bug, but Mom held her and showed her that it was a hummingbird.
We had the best Christmases with presents piled high under and around the tree, even when there wasn't a lot of money. We could open our stockings very early after begging to get up, but Mom made us eat breakfast and get dressed before Dad handed out presents one by one.
She cooked for us. In the days when money was short, we had things like meatloaf or potato soup, or sometimes pancakes for dinner. It took a long time to cook pancakes for eight people, so it was only a dinnertime treat.
She perfected Grandmother Ashwill's 1-2-3-4 cake with divinity icing. She was the iconic Midwest pie maker and perfected apple dumplings that Russ wanted for every birthday. She would sometimes start making a lemon meringue pie at 10 p.m. after Dad came home from a business trip. She taught Vince Jr.'s wife Jean to make pie crust like an Ashwill in the late 1960s, which for those at home, was a great week of pies. And we all have copies of her best recipes in her own cookbook.
She hated cupboard doors left open, and on occasion, Dad would open all the kitchen cupboard doors as a joke. We all sat in the other room laughing as we heard Mom slam each one shut. Then there were times that Dad took Mom around the kitchen as if it were the dance floor.
She loved parties and talking, especially when she got together with her sister. In the 1980s, Mom, her sister and a friend visited Vickie in Wisconsin and laughed and talked and drank well into the night on Vickie's deck. They were hilarious.
She was a craftsperson and an artist, taking up oil painting in the 1960s, paintingcontinued...

Here is what you can add to make it more healthy, I learned these things when I worked in a health food store when I was in high school over 30 years ago, wow am I that old already !!
Lecithin granules;
Lecithin is a fat emulsifier that helps your body break down fat and flush it from your body its great for you skin, hair and digestive system but the best thing about it, is it makes your drinks creamy and sweet naturally!
Protein Powder
any protein powder is fine jut look out for the calories in it, it can really vary
Substitute Milk for Soy Milk
the soy milk that is produce these day taste really great and some are vanilla or chocolate flavored.
Sugar is so bad for your body but if you need it to be a little sweeter, which don't feel guilty I love sweets!, add honey instead of sugar. Honey is actually incredibly good for your body and is a natural healer and is just allover a great beauty and healthy food!
Ok here is where I contradict my healthy side...
At any time it is ok to use Ice Cream to make it extra rich and creamy to ANY Smoothie recipe including tropical strawberry smoothie recipe. and turn it into a shake, yummmmy

Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Second Circuit
June 24, 2015
STATE OF LOUISIANA, Appelleev.DEANDRE D. MILES, Appellant
Appealed from the First Judicial District Court for the Parish of Caddo, Louisiana. Trial Court No. 310,662. Honorable Brady O'Callaghan, Judge.
LOUISIANA APPELLATE PROJECT, By: Douglas Lee Harville, Counsel for Appellant.
DALE G. COX, District Attorney; GEORGE WINSTON, MEKISHA SMITH CREAL, JESSICA D. CASSIDY, Assistant District Attorneys, Counsel for Appellee.
Before WILLIAMS, CARAWAY, and GARRETT, JJ.

The defendant, Deandre[1] D. Miles, pled guilty to armed robbery. The trial court sentenced him to 20 years at hard labor without benefit of parole, probation, or suspension of sentence. The defendant appealed, contending that the trial court imposed an excessive sentence. We affirm the defendant's conviction and sentence.
On the night of May 29, 2012, the victim answered a knock at his door in an apartment complex in Shreveport. A masked man armed with a handgun forced his way into the victim's apartment, threatened to kill the victim, and demanded money. After

taking $800 in cash from the victim, the intruder demanded more money, but the victim said he did not have any. (The victim later testified that the money taken was his tax refund.) A violent confrontation ensued. As they struggled over the gun, it discharged. Although the victim ultimately gained control of the weapon, it malfunctioned because his hand was on top of the slide. As a result, the victim sustained an injury to the inside of his hand between his thumb and forefinger, consistent with what is called a " slide bite." During the struggle, the victim was able to pull the robber's mask off. The robber produced a can of mace from his pocket and sprayed it in the victim's eyes. He then fled from the victim's apartment.
Two of the victim's neighbors heard the altercation, and one of them observed the struggle over the gun. The police were called, and the victim was taken to the hospital by ambulance. Among the items recovered at the [49,889 La.App. 2 Cir. 2] scene by the police were the gun, the projectile, the can of mace, and the camouflage mask worn by the robber. DNA evidence recovered from the mask matched that of the defendant. With this information, the police put together a six-person photo lineup. From this lineup, the victim identified the defendant as the robber who attacked him. An arrest warrant for the defendant was obtained.
In November 2012, the defendant was arrested and charged with armed robbery. In an interview with the police, he admitted being present at the victim's apartment. However, he claimed that the incident arose out of a failed drug deal wherein his cousin paid for marijuana which the victim then refused to produce. The defendant asserted that he merely accompanied his cousin to the victim's apartment to try to retrieve the money. He contended that his cousin was carrying a gun, which he threw into the apartment when the victim opened the door. According to the defendant, the cousin then ran away. However, none of the witnesses saw a second assailant, and the police who investigated the incident did not find any drugs at the victim's apartment.
Jury selection in the defendant's trial began on July 21, 2014. On July 22, 2014, the defendant pled guilty to armed robbery pursuant to a plea agreement whereby the state dismissed several other pending felony and misdemeanor charges. The following day, a sentencing hearing was held. The 23-year-old victim, who had moved to California after the robbery, traveled back to Louisiana in order to testify at the defendant's trial. The victim remained for the sentencing hearing and testified on behalf of the state. A married father of a young child, the victim was employed as a [49,889 La.App. 2 Cir. 3] manager for a telecommunications company. He recounted the horrific chain of events that occurred on the night of the home invasion and robbery. He further described the mental and financial distress the defendant's crime had caused him and his family and its continuing negative emotional impact. The victim also emphatically denied the defendant's accusation that he was a drug dealer. The defense called three witnesses -- the defendant's disabled mother, who testified that she needed her son to care for her; a volunteer chaplain at the correctional center where the defendant had been incarcerated since his arrest, who discussed his ...

Bush will head out on tour this spring and summer, starting with a handful of dates in May and June before launching the main run on July 21st in Walker, Minnesota. Shows are currently booked through mid-August and a number of the summer gigs will find Bush paired with Chevelle. The tour will be the first for the band since frontman Gavin Rossdale and his wife, No Doubt singerGwen Stefani, split up last year over Rossdale's alleged affair with a nanny for the couple's three sons.
Rossdale told us a while back that he approaches playing live with an almost militaristic attitude: ["It is a bit like going into battle, going to war, going on tour, because you really have to take it on and you really have to push yourselves and try and be so much better than you were the night before, and so much more focused. And if you do it in sort of a chaotic, ramshackle kind of a way and every now and again you hit a good song and you play good, that's not enough for me and for the rest of the band, actually."] SOUNDCUE (:23 OC: . . . the band, actually.)
- Bush continues to support its late 2014 album, Man On the Run, which has yielded the singles "The Only Way Out," the title track and "Loneliness Is A Killer."
- Man On The Run followed up 2011's The Sea Of Memories, which was the first new Bush recording in a decade.
- Ticketing for some shows begins this Friday (April 29th) at 10:00 a.m. local time, with VIP packages available.
- Confirmed Bush tour dates (subject to change):
May 5 — Huntington, NY — The Paramount
May 6 — Virginia Beach, VA — Farm Bureau Live
May 7 — Myrtle Beach, SC — House Of Blues
June 3 — Sioux Falls, SD — W.H. Lyons Fairgrounds

Reviews for Periactin to treat Urticaria
"I've been on Periactin for about 6 months. I take 8mg at night but I can't get up on time in the morning and the kids are late for school most days. I have found it works for my chronic urticaria but also noticed a huge weight gain. I was watching myself get fatter but didn't know why. After reading all the other reviews I now know it is the Periactin so I'm thinking of cutting back on the tablets. I need to lose weight. I feel horrible."

"While taking this stuff, I began to have an insatiable appetite. My mouth is almost always dry and my ears will have a screeching noise. It puts me to sleep within 20 minutes and is hard to shake off in the mornings, much worse than Benadryl. It is playing an effective role in controlling the chronic hives I have had for close to a year. Although I don't enjoy any of the side effects, I Do thoroughly enjoy not having hives all the time! I have a much better quality of life since I've began this new prescription!"

Current Saved Transcription [history]
to impede our progress; but with ail surrounding adversities and impediments, we have endeavored to stem the current and push onward to the moorings of a just and honorable estimate as American citizens. Whether or not we are entitled to these, I shall not say. I will appeal to that supreme tribune—the conscience of this nation—to answer for me. Submissively, earnestly and patiently have we longed, waited and prayed for a better and brighter era to dawn upon us. Our hopes, desires and anticipations have resulted in no more than their conception. We feel by virtue of our present surroundings and condition that our advancement is not as fast as it should be; we feel that there is vast room for improvement.
Being actuated by these feelings, and prompted by a desire and anxiety to better our condition, we are here in this National Conference to deliberate and discuss our condition, and ascertain the medium through which a change maybe effected, and an extrication from the thraldom of our present circumstances.
The all-absorbing topic that now agitates our people in this country, and especially in the South, is migration. The colored people of the South hold in their hands the boasted grandeur and material wealth of that section. They also possess the most potent means of all success, that is, labor. Labor rightly estimated is, indeed, the most powerful and effective element of success; without this no wealth, no happiness, no comfort could be obtained—all of these blessings are the products of successful labor. No region under the heavens is better adapted and more conducive to the race than the South, The only question that interests them is: Can they, in this section, situated as they now are, work out a successful and peaceful destiny? Does their labor meet with a just and commensurate recompense? Are their rights and liberties duly respected ?
These are the questions to be discussed l and settled for them. Loth and unwilling are these people to leave the homes of their birth, the joyous surroundings and pleasant associations of their childhood; grievously does it affect them to leave the soil within whose bosom sleeps those who were near and dear to them. These people, though untutored and deemed inferior, possess those feelings of attention and devotion to "home" and and its surroundings that are possessed by the erudite and refined. Their souls, bedewed with the memories of happy and joyous associations, cause them to reluctantly turn their backs upon home to seek abodes in distant and unknown regions ; but the unconquerable spirit of manhood arises within them and inspires them to seek homes where labor is better respected and compensated, and their rights better regarded. In equity and justice can they be blamed? An emigration of any magnitude cannot fail to seriously and disastrously affect the material wealth of the South. If large numbers of our people, stimulated by the hope of bettering their condition, leave the South, the very grave question of "What will become of us?" will soon disturb the repose of those who are most benefited by the labors of the race in that section. It has already caused great commotion, and in many instances pledges and promises for an improvement upon the present manner of conducting affairs in that section have been made. It is needless to say that, if they are carried out to the letter, it will redound to the lasting good of both the laborer and the land owner.
This section is, as is well known, one of the finest regions that adorn the face of creation, inexhaustible in its resources, unparalleled in the fertility of its soil, and unsurpassed in the salubrity of its climate. The fertility and productive properties have ever existed in this section. Yes. they existed during the countless ages of the forgotten past, when its hills,

Tell us a bit about yourself. Where are you from?
I am originally from Oakville, ON. I completed my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in 2008 and 2010, respectively, from the University of Windsor. I recently received my PhD from York University in Toronto (2014). Since completing my doctoral degree, I have been working as a post-doctoral fellow under Dr. Avril Mansfield at the Toronto Rehabilitation Institute.
What compelled you to pursue stroke research?
The potential for contributing to the development and improvement of rehabilitation strategies to aid individuals with stroke in recovering their balance and mobility is very exciting and different for me, as my Master's and doctoral work had a strong focus on basic science research. Working with Dr. Mansfield on a project examining the effects of different types of exercise training programs on balance recovery capacity and fall occurrence in individuals with stroke was an excellent fit, as it allows me to apply the skills that I learned during my basic science work to more applied research questions that will directly impact and translate to clinical practice.
What is the focus of your research?
Falls are one of the most common complications post-stroke, and therefore improving reactive balance control (i.e., the ability to maintain balance in response to a perturbation, such as being pushed or standing on the subway) may aid in reducing the occurrence of falls. The focus of my research is identifying changes in reactive balance control abilities in individuals with stroke following perturbation-based balance training, which subjects individuals to a series of perturbations such as pushes and pulls in order to improve their ability to recover their balance. We hope to identify the features of reactive balance control that are responsive to this type of training, and further improve the training program to address any features that were unaffected.
At what stage are you in your research, and what are your current future plans?
I began my post-doctoral fellowship in October 2014. I developed our instrumentation and data collection protocols throughout the remainder of the fall, and we began collecting in January. Collection and data processing are currently ongoing. My current career goal is to obtain either a university faculty position or a research scientist position.
How do you and others benefit from being part of the National Trainee Association?
I feel that the networking opportunities provided by the National Trainee Association are among the most valuable benefits, and as a new trainee, I look forward to becoming involved with the Association.
What other interests do you have?
My favourite sports are gymnastics and trampoline. In addition, I also enjoy hiking, travelling, and most importantly, spending time with family and friends.

CRIMINAL DEFENSENarcotics Charges

Embezzlement charges involve the allegation that either an employee or another individual trusted with the possession of money or other items of value, takes possession of that item for their own benefit without permission from the owner of that property. Most Embezzlement cases involve workers in the retail sector who are alleged to have taken money or merchandise from the store without permission. However, embezzlement can also involve bank employees, or many other workplace and charitable sectors. Depending on the amount of loss, Embezzlement can either be a Felony or Misdemeanor.
Embezzlement charges are usually initiated after someone examines the records and/or files and discover that the "numbers" are not adding up. Unfortunately, they automatically assume wrong doing and look for individuals who could be held responsible. There are usually no witnesses or direct evidence that can support the charge of Embezzlement. The supporting evidence is usually in the form of business records.
Attorneys at The Simms Firm, PLC have extensive experience in handling cases involving Embezzlement charges. The attorneys will demand that the Government provide support and a basis for these charges. The attorneys will aggressively question all witnesses and scrutinize business records. The attorneys will ensure that you are not convicted on a mere speculation or suspicion based on faulty business records. The Government must prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt.

Bill Simmons' new show, Any Given Wednesday debuted this week, and one of his guests was Batman himself, Mr. Ben Affleck. What did Affleck discuss? DeflateGate, of course. And holy shit, was he fired up. He dropped so many f-bombs, one would think he was told to use as much profanity as possible. There had to be booze involved, Bruce Wayne was way too heated about his boy, Brady.
If the Simmons' show debut is any indication about what we can expect, it might be worth watching.
