Quality cases for Archos players
I was in the market for a quality case with a stand for my Archos 504. The reviews for the case Archos sells for this palyer were not good, so I kept looking. I found a leather case that appeared to be what I was looking for on the New MP3 Technology website. (http://www.newmp3technology.com/)
and purchased a black leather case from them.
This case is an outstanding product. It fits my 504 perfectly. It has openings to reach all controls and plug-ins, the stand works great, the workmanship is excellent. In fact, the case is so good that I also purchased a case from this same site for my Archos 405; and am just as satisfied with it as I am with the 504 case. The cost of these cases ranged from $28 for the 405 to $37 for the 504, so they are a litle higher than the Archos made case, but well worth the money.
Let me assure you that I am just a consumer and am in no way conected with newmp3technology.com. I just figure there were other people out there who, like me, have been looking for this type of product. So, if you are in the market for a quality leather case for your Archos players, check this site out.

Less star power, more political power. That's the shape of things at this year's annual meeting of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.
The current economic crisis has taken a toll on the 2009 guest list with fewer Wall Street kingpins and activist celebrity types on hand. Many Wall Street stars, such as former Merrill Lynch boss John Thain, Goldman Sachs' Lloyd Blankfein and Citigroups Vikram Pandit have canceled. So did musician/activist Bono. Angelina Jolie won't be there, either. Cancellations aside, there will be some bold-face names in the crowd. Click ahead for the faces of Davos.

Liz Lemon's love life has been one of the great ongoing jokes of "30 Rock's" seven seasons, but her creator, Tina Fey, isn't letting her ride off into the sunset alone. On Thursday, NBC announced that on the Nov. 29 episode of "30 Rock," Lemon would finally be getting married to her boyfriend of the last two seasons, Criss (James Marsden).
The wedding announcement, sent to fans via the show's official Twitter account features a photo of a Lemon with a wedding ring and the text, "What the What?!" and "Ms. Elizabeth Miervaldis Lemon presents herself to be married to Mr. Crisstopher Rick Chross... But not in a creepy way that perpetuates the idea that brides are virgins and women are property."
Lemon has been dating the sweetly dopey sometime hot-dog-cart vendor since last season, and while shows frequently have weddings or funerals in their final seasons, it's come as a bit of a shock that Lemon will actually be tying the knot before the series comes to the end of its final, 13-episode season.
She sure isn't Carrie Bradshaw.
The episode, titled "Mazel Tov, Dummies!" will also feature the return of Lemon's first boyfriend from the series, Dennis the Beeper King (Dean Winters).

Yellen Is Obama's Choice as Fed Chief
If Confirmed, She Would Be First Female Central Bank Chairman
President Barack Obama will nominate Janet Yellen to run the Federal Reserve, calling on the central bank's second in command to become the world's most powerful economic policy maker after months of sometimes bitter debate about Chairman Ben Bernanke's successor.
Ms. Yellen's nomination, which the White House said would be announced Wednesday, would be subject to Senate confirmation amid squabbling between Democrats and Republicans over fiscal issues. The federal government has been partially shut since Oct. 1, after its...

Miguel Cabrera gets in his licks, and his laughs
The Detroit Tigers were in the middle of a workout for the World Series when comedian George Lopez showed up and began milling around near home plate. Almost instantly, Miguel Cabrera was beside him, laughing it up and looking as excited as he'd been all afternoon.
"He likes to have fun," teammate Quintin Berry said. "He enjoys himself. He loves being here, and he likes the loose environment. I understand him having a lot of fun with George and stuff because that's the same kind of person he is."
Baseball's first Triple Crown winner in 45 years seems to enjoy hitting and joking around in equal proportion. Fans are plenty familiar with Cabrera's talent – his consistently high average and awe-inspiring power – but the rest of the Tigers appreciate him for more than that.
Cabrera may be shy in front of a camera or microphone, but there's a goofy side to the third baseman that helps keep his team upbeat.
Now in the prime of his career at 29, Cabrera's approach remains meticulous, but he's careful not to take himself or his job too seriously.
"Besides the business, it's a game. I think baseball is a very fine game and you have to enjoy it," Cabrera said recently. "You have to go out there and have fun. Don't get me wrong, you have to be serious at the same time, but I think when you have a team and try to have fun and get loose before the game and between innings, I think it helps you play good. That's the way I've played since I was a kid."
Cabrera and the Tigers open the World Series on Wednesday. It will be his first trip to the Fall Classic since he was a 20-year-old rookie in 2003 and his Florida Marlins beat the New York Yankees.
Cabrera played all over the field in that postseason – third base, left field, right field, even three innings at shortstop. After being traded to the Tigers before the 2008 season, he eventually settled in at first base. Detroit acquired the Venezuelan for his bat, after all, not his glove.
"He was a good hitter before we ever got him," manager Jim Leyland said. "I mean, nobody here taught Miguel Cabrera anything about hitting."
Still, even the Tigers had to be amazed by what Cabrera did this season. His .330 average, 44 home runs and 139 RBIs made him the first Triple Crown winner since 1967.
"I told him that a Latino winning the Triple Crown is as impressive as having a black president," Lopez said during his visit with the team Saturday.
During the final days of the Triple Crown chase, Cabrera did his best to deflect the pressure and the attention.
"I kind of want to stay away from baseball when I go home," he said. "I want to see movies … try to play with my kids, try and forget baseball for a little bit."
As outgoing as he can be, Cabrera doesn't always look comfortable when talking to reporters, especially when asked to talk about himself. It wasn't long ago he seemed on the verge of wasting his prodigious talent, when he was arrested at the start of spring training in 2011 – he later pleaded no contest to drunken driving.
General manager Dave Dombrowski said Cabrera has worked hard to overcome his off-field problems.
"I think he's grown in abundance," Dombrowski said. "Just some of the things that when you're a youngster, you need to learn, and the only way you learn is through experience, and he's done that. So we see him in a much more comfortable place – his growth as a family man, his growth on the field as a leader."
Perhaps the best example of Cabrera's team-first mentality came when he moved to third base this year to accommodate newly signed first baseman Prince Fielder. Cabrera's range isn't particularly good, and the adjustment got off to a rocky start when he was hit around the eye with a bad-hop grounder during spring training.
It would have been easy for a player of Cabrera's stature to call off the experiment after that scary injury, but he never did.
"He's a very tough individual," Dombrowski said. "He continued his hard work. I can't say he wasn't concerned, but we were more concerned than him at the time."
Some of Cabrera's quirkier habits may be on display for a national audience once the World Series starts. Watch him after a checked swing. He might signal toward first base himself, as if expecting the umpire to cut him some slack if he appeals the play before the catcher.
Cabrera is focused whenever he steps on the field. The Tigers were scrimmaging Sunday at Comerica Park, and when Cabrera stepped up, he used the plate to help mark off exactly where he wanted to stand, since there was no marked batter's box.
Cabrera is all about details. But make no mistake, he has fun along the way.
"He tries not to worry about anything," Berry said. "He gets bothered if everybody starts worrying too much. He just wants everybody to relax and believe in yourselves. That's pretty much what I take from him."

Screen Cleaners
From Smartphones to tablets to laptops to e-readers to GPS devices, today's mobile devices make it so much easier to do things while on the go. While the ways that you use these types of mobile devices varies, they all have one thing in common: if you want to be able to use them to their fullest, you need to be able to clearly see the screen! Custom screen cleaners help to keep screens clear, making it easier to use all types of devices.
Why Distribute Custom Screen Cleaners?
Logo screen cleaners are an incredibly powerful marketing tool when given away at promotional events. Nearly everyone today owns some type of device that can be cleaned with printed screen cleaners, so you can be certain that when you give out custom screen cleaners at an event, you're providing items that are truly useful. The utility of your promotional giveaway items matters; the more useful the item is, the more likely recipients are to keep it and to actually use it daily. The more they use your promotional items, the more they will see your brand and the more they will remember your company. Logo screen cleaners are sure to be used regularly due to their ability to remove dust, dirt and fingerprints from screens.
Types of Logo Screen Cleaners
Printed screen cleaners come in two main varieties: traditional and sticky. Both types of custom screen cleaners have a soft cloth side that traps debris and lifts it away from screens, and some traditional products have cleaning surfaces on their reverse sides as well. Sticky logo screen cleaners have an adhesive on their reverse sides that allows them to be stuck to a surface like the inside of a tablet cover or on the wall. This makes it possible to keep the screen cleaners within easy reach at home, at the office or on the go.
Customizing Printed Screen Cleaners
When you're choosing custom screen cleaners for promotional giveaway items, you can customize them in a number of ways. You can choose from traditional square or rectangular logo screen cleaners or have your printed screen cleaners made into a unique shape. Some companies simply choose a shape that is unique and memorable, while others choose to have their screen cleaners cut to resemble their product or logo. You'll also have the option to choose whether to simply have your logo added to the cleaners or a complete artwork design. We can create either type of graphic for you free of charge, and printing is always free.
The Lowest Prices Around
Our custom screen cleaners are incredibly cost effective options for promotional giveaways and provide a lucrative return on investment due to their low cost. We offer bulk pricing discounts, so the more of our logo screen cleaners that you purchase at one time, the more you can save. We offer a price match guarantee on our printed screen cleaners, ensuring that you'll always pay the lowest possible price when you purchase from us.

Los Alamos National Laboratory
Stone's code reveals Earth's processes
Coding for simulations to help capture carbon dioxide
Although Los Alamos geophysicist Ian Stone studies his namesake, his attention is not solely focused on the rocks beneath him. Rather, like the Renaissance's greatest thinkers, he integrates science and art to better understand the natural world.
The returning student researches carbon sequestration to determine the best methods to capture the greenhouse gas that increases global warming. An evocative nature photographer, Stone is also a magazine art director at the Colorado School of Mines, where he's completing his undergraduate degree.
At the Lab's Earth and Environmental Sciences (EES) Division, Stone helps monitor movement of Earth's crust while predicting the effects of these events on the environment. In one project, he models subsurface ground motion caused by earthquakes to assess and improve subsurface storage of carbon dioxide.
New Mexico's mesas, rugged volcanoes and limestone caverns that Stone studies provide ample exploratory opportunities for this self-proclaimed "rock hound," who's amassed 500 pounds in his collection since his Alabama childhood. In awe of the Land of Enchantment's landscape, Stone hikes and enjoys rock climbing and rafting.
Stone says Los Alamos is not a mere student internship to note on a resume, assigning students demanding and applicable research backed by world-class technology. The interdisciplinary mentors Stone works with—including geophysicist Chris Bradley and the division's computational engineers—are dedicated to the success of their students. He also is active in the Lab's Student Association.
"I am definitely getting real-world experience and this experience will make me a much more attractive candidate for research opportunities," says Stone, adding that the Lab's impressive and diverse networking opportunities have already provided opportunities to explore other areas of research.» Return to homepage

Cichlids (East Africa)
Make a donation
Common Name
Scientific Name
Geographic location
African Great Lakes
Some species are critically endangered
Record breaker!
Lake Malawi has a greater number of fish species in its waters than any other lake in the world.
From 2.5cm to over 90cm!
A wonder of evolution
Cichlids are famed for their fantastic breeding and reproduction habits. Some males build underwater sandcastles to impress and attract a mate. Some species work with other fish such as the kampango catfish to share a nest and earn protection from predators. Females of several cichlid species carry their fertilized eggs in their mouths to keep them safe; once hatched, the young fish will return to their mother's mouth when they sense danger.
Some unusual table manners!
Under threat from overfishing
Some cichlid species, such as tilapia for example, are important food sources. Overfishing is the major threat facing this amazing array of cichlid species.
Other major problems include introduced species such as Nile perch and water hyacinth, and deforestation which causes siltation of the water.
Priority species
What is WWF doing?
Its projects in this area are concerned with appropriate management of fishing, climate change mitigation and effective watershed management. Specific projects also look at environmental education and establishing sustainable tourism enterprises.

Zac Efron turned fans' stomachs on U.S. late night TV in America on Thursday (04Oct12) when he sucked a duck foetus from an egg.
The movie hunk opted to try the delicacy balut during a lunchtime trip to a volcano in the Philippines and he asked a pal to videotape the moment he peeled open the egg and guzzled down the contents.
He aired the home video during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and revealed he actually quite liked the broth-like snack.
He told the host, "There was a fully-formed little bird in the egg... It wasn't that bad. I ate, like, three more that day.
"There was, like, a hard part with, like, the beak and stuff. I didn't want to eat that."
For the uninitiated, balut is a duck embryo that is boiled and eaten in the shell. It is believed to be an aphrodisiac.

In front of a dilapidated main street of a frontier town the writing burnt into a wooden notice board beings to smoke. Whatever was written on the board is quickly lost as new patterns are etched out and a thin cloud of smoke drifts up to hide the board for a moment. As the smoke clears it reveals a new piece of writing, finely carved into the wood, as if by a master craftsman. People walking past however pay scant attention to the show or stop to read what the board now says. The only attention it receives is that of a dishevelled Halfling stumbling past and squinting up at the writing as he relieves himself against one of the boards legs
Tonight, throughout Ghostwater heads may be laid to pillow assuaged and reassured, for that purveyor for profit of everything sordid and vicious, Nafez Verstaadt, already beaten to a fare-thee-well earlier in the day by Captain Trejib, has returned to the Captain the implements and ornaments of his office. Without the tawdry walls of Verstaadt's tavern The Thirsty Dog, decent citizens may pursue with a new and jaunty freedom all aspects of goodly commerce. In which connection, we particularly recommend the armourer Hazzrack's fine works, arms found within The Carvery by Elgios and of course Neegla's high quality good-store The Generals Supplies. A full fair-mindedness requires us also to report that within the Dog, on Ghostwaters's main thoroughfare, comely wenches, decently priced liquor and the squarest games of chance in the hills remain unabatedly available at all hours, seven days a week.
… a place of refugees, wily eccentrics, dim-witted rebels, bloody-minded trailblazers, war-torn wash-ups, gamblers with nothing to lose, abused abusers and a few genuine miners. A population of a few hundred huddled together for safety, survival and the pursuit of profit. Here trustworthiness and love are the rarest of commodities while violence and deceit flow like the ghastly streams that give the town its name. Thus unescapably, the locals must curb some of their tendencies toward anarchy and savagery and embrace certain rudiments of civilized society; otherwise they will destroy themselves. Distilled from this process, in a sense of being extracted rather than refined, certain individuals will stand out. These persons will be bastions of the chaos around them. Persons that that while perhaps not standing tall, will still stand when called. Their lives may go on to greatness or they may not go on much longer at all… who can say… Welcome to Ghostwater, pull up a seat at the bar and let's get started
Ghostwater has been laid to rest. The first of many sessions kicked off 18/06/10.

*Note that because of procedural changes at the ALA level, these policies and procedures are currently under review. Questions should be directed to RUSA Executive Director, Jessica Hughes, firstname.lastname@example.com.
RUSA offers three types of on-site professional development opportunities:
- Midwinter Institutes, held at the beginning of ALA Midwinter Meeting
- Preconferences, held at the beginning of ALA Annual Conference
- Programs, held during ALA Annual Conference
There are also other types of events that are scheduled for both Midwinter and Annual:
- Committee meetings
- Discussion groups
- Special events, including awards ceremonies, receptions and functions such as the Literary Tastes Breakfast
This chapter will guide you through the planning, promotion, and delivery of each type of professional development offering, and will also offer insight on planning the three other types of events listed above. It should answer the majority of your questions—please look here for answers before contacting RUSA staff.
Your primary contacts for programs and institutes/preconferences will be the RUSA Executive Director, the RUSA Marketing Specialist, and the RUSA Conference Program Coordinating Committee Chairperson.
The primary contact for committee meetings, discussion groups and other special events will be the RUSA Marketing Specialist.
No-conflict meeting times:
When scheduling meetings of a committee, the chair should note the all-conference no-conflict times. At Annual Conference, the RUSA program, membership meeting, and awards reception are no-conflict times within the division. They are usually scheduled on Monday afternoon. No other RUSA units or committees may schedule meetings, offsite events, or programs at that time.
Annual Conference programs:
To receive consideration for scheduling and funding conference programs, RUSA sections and committees must plan their programs and submit program proposals to the Conference Program Coordinating Committee 12 months preceding the conference when the program will be presented. Preconference program proposals are due 18 months preceding the preconference. RUSA sections and committees do not automatically receive funds and space for program meetings. They must justify requests on the individual merits of each proposed program.
It is important to RUSA to encourage a diversity of committee activities that benefit both members who attend conference and those who do not. To better serve members who cannot attend meetings as well as the wider library community, committees and sections should consider the appropriateness of producing publications from their programs.
Criteria for programs:
In preparing its recommendations for RUSA board approval, the RUSA Conference Program Coordinating Committee will use the following criteria in its review of requests for programs:
- Appropriateness of topic: Is the topic germane to ALA and RUSA areas of interest and to librarianship and information services? Is the topic consistent with the ALA and RUSA mission statements?
- Breadth of appeal: Will the program appeal to a substantial number of conferees and meet their current interests and needs?
- Appropriateness for conference format: Is the program best suited to the Annual Conference or to another site or form of presentation?
- Cost: Does the program require special materials or exorbitant honoraria?
- Currency: Is the topic relevant to current needs or developing trends in the field?
- Uniqueness: Has the topic been covered in a recent ALA unit program in or outside the Annual Conference? If so, how is this approach different? Is another unit planning a similar or related program in or outside the Annual Conference? If so, what would justify offering both programs?
- Time slot: Is the desired time slot one of the most heavily scheduled periods (i.e., daytime slots, Saturday through Monday)? Are there other programs at the same time that might attract the same audience? Can the program be scheduled for a different time period?
Limit on number of section programs:
The division will limit the number of programs to eighteen.
This excludes preconferences and co-sponsorships in name only.
Each of the six sections are entitled to two programs and the remaining six program slots will be reserved for: the President's Program, the RSS Research Forum, the Readers' Advisory Research and Trends Forum, the AFL-CIO/ALA Joint Committee, the Literary Tastes program, and another RUSA committee.

Publicity for programs:
The best bet for reaching a targeted audience of RUSA members is RUSA-L. Other publicity avenues include Cognotes, the daily conference newspaper, and posting to other electronic discussion lists.
Of limited use are the literature distribution tables at ALA conferences. RUSA only receives three baskets and uses them in the following manner: one for discussion group announcements, one for program announcements and the last for special projects. Groups that wish to participate should send the RUSA office camera-ready copy and the office copies and assembles the flyers into the baskets. Copy is due in the RUSA office six weeks before the conference.
Tips for writing effective copy:
When writing or editing preliminary program copy, remember that you are writing copy to market a product. You must not only provide the required information, but also present it convincingly. Write the copy as if you had to justify program attendance to your boss.
The copy should answer the following questions:
- Who should attend?
- Why is the topic important?
- What will program attendees gain to help them do their jobs better?
- What bonus information will attendees gain? Are there special hand-outs or freebies?
- Who will be giving the program and what are their credentials?
- How will the program be conducted? (panel, speakers, small group interaction)
- Is advance registration required? What are the fees?
- When is the program?
- Where is the program? (If it is off-site or requires advance arrangements, say so.)
After writing or editing the copy, read it aloud or show it to someone else. Does it interest you? Would you want to attend the program after reading the copy? Did you leave anything out?
When writing copy, remember:
- Place the most important information first.
- More is not necessarily better. Nothing is more intimidating to a reader than a long, jargon-filled description. Keep it simple. Keep it short.
- Use the active, not passive voice.
- Write your copy and then rewrite it, edit out words and phrases that contribute nothing.
Publications from programs:
Frequently, programs lend themselves to excellent publications. Depending on the scope, the program may be the basis for an RUSQ article, an occasional paper, or some other type of publication. The key to success is to begin planning for the publication in the early stages. Contact the RUSA office for assistance.
All RUSA programs should be evaluated. RUSA has a program evaluation form that is available to all RUSA units sponsoring programs at the Annual Conference.
Funding for conference programs:
Each division receives an annual allocation of $1,500 from ALA to support its programs at the Annual Conference. In addition, RUSA provides $3,500 from its budget to support the programs. The RUSA Conference Program Coordinating Committee recommends to the RUSA Board how the $5,000 should be allocated among the program proposals. The RUSA president's program receives first priority.
The allocation may be used to support non-librarian speakers and other expenses. Audio-visual equipment is covered from the Conference Services budget if ordered before the deadline (usually March 1st).
Outside funding:
It is important to coordinate all requests for funding.
ALA has discouraged the divisions from seeking funding from vendors for a variety of minor program expenses.
It is appropriate to seek vendor support for a reception but committees should check with the RUSA executive director first to ensure that vendors do not receive competing requests from RUSA units. The program chair forwards any program donations to the RUSA office immediately upon receipt.
Travel, per diem, honoraria:
ALA does not provide travel funds, per diem, or honoraria to librarians, those who work in libraries, or members of the association, who participate in the Annual Conference. Program chairs should inform all speakers of this policy. Non-librarian speakers are eligible for one-day complimentary conference registration.
If the contract for a non-librarian speaker specifies hotel and per diem, the program chair should inform the speaker that ALA will pay for the room and the room tax. Incidentals (telephone, valet, movies, etc.) are to be paid by the speaker. Room service or minibar service may be charged against the per diem.
Speakers who are eligible for reimbursement must submit original receipts and a member/nonmember expense form to the program chair, who submits it to the office.
Reimbursement requests are due in the RUSA office within one month after conference.
Estimating costs for programs:
The actual budget will, of course, depend on the nature of the program, the conference city, whether the speakers are librarians or not. There are, however, some standard figures that are used in developing a 'ballpark' budget, when non-librarians will be speaking:
- hotels, $200 per day
- meals, $40 per day
- transportation, $450 per trip
Travel is paid at the rate of a coach fare for air travel or $0.445 per mile for car travel, but not to exceed the cost of coach air fare. If special air fares are used, reimbursement is the actual cost incurred.
The per diem for meals and miscellaneous expenses is based on the per diem allowed for ALA staff, usually about $40. Conference Services covers the cost of audiovisual equipment ordered for programs.
RUSA does not support any meal or beverage service for conference program meetings.
Preconferences pay for all meal and beverage services from the revenues they generate.
Cosponsorship opportunities may arise one of two ways: 1) RUSA (or one of its units or committees) may be asked to cosponsor a program with another ALA unit or committee or an outside organization or 2) RUSA (or an RUSA unit or committee) may ask another ALA unit or committee or an outside organization to cosponsor an RUSA (or RUSA unit or committee) program.
When RUSA cosponsorship is requested, the request shall be reviewed first by the Conference Program Coordinating Committee and then submitted to the RUSA Board of Directors for approval. When a section is asked to cosponsor a program, the section Executive Committee makes the decision. When the division requests cosponsorship from outside the division, the approval decision then rests with the other party.
Preconference/workshop planning calendar:

Preconference/workshop budgets:
Preconference/workshop budgets are different from program budgets in that they do not receive financial support from ALA. The following guidelines apply to preconferences.
ALA policy states that "all institutes, workshops, etc., sponsored by ALA and/or its units shall be self-supporting and shall include provision for ALA administrative cost." The ALA administrative cost, or overhead, is determined annually and is a percentage of the income (excluding donations).
Registration fees for preconferences must be set at a level to meet all costs of each preconference, including staff costs. In addition, preconferences are expected to generate net revenue to provide seed money for future educational programs.
Because RUSA is responsible for preconference costs, the RUSA executive director must give final approval to the budget and the registration fee. Registration fees can only be finalized after the budget has been approved and no registration fees should be publicized until RUSA executive director approval has been received.
Except in unusual circumstances, only official members of the preconference program planning committee may attend the preconference at no charge. Source: RASD Board, February, 1994
Elements included in the budget:
Corporate Sponsorship: Corporate sponsors may be asked to support program or meal costs. Sponsors must be approved by the ALA Development Office and must be registered as Exhibitors for the Conference.
Printing costs: Publicity materials and advertising, registration materials (handouts, lists of registrants), registration folders, name tags.
Publicity mailings, registration confirmation, other mailings and correspondence as needed.
AV, computer equipment
Speaker Expenses: See above to ensure that speakers are eligible to incur expenses. Usually only non-librarian speakers are eligible to receive honoraria or reimbursement of expenses.
Meeting Space: If the preconference is not held in one of the conference hotels or the convention center, the registration fees will have to cover room rental.
Expenses for free registrants: meals, registration packets, badges, etc. Include speakers and presenters in this category, as well as staff and members of the preconference planning committee.
Food functions: Most preconferences have a midmorning coffee break, and afternoon coffee and soft drinks. Some preconferences have been able to include lunch as well, but with ever increasing costs, this has become harder to finance.
ALA overhead: The ALA overhead is assessed on registration revenue and is set annually by ALA. The rate average is 20%.
RUSA office expenses: Photocopying that RUSA staff does for the preconference will be charged back to the preconference, as will fax charges, and postage.

HIGHLAND FALLS — In need of a defensive end on the fly, James I. O'Neill coach Anthony Finochio summoned Derrike Shrieve during a scrimmage against Chester in August.
HIGHLAND FALLS — In need of a defensive end on the fly, James I. O'Neill coach Anthony Finochio summoned Derrike Shrieve during a scrimmage against Chester in August.
Somewhat confused, Shrieve nodded and accepted the assignment. He had never played defensive end and for good reason. Shrieve is 5-foot-10, 170 pounds.
However, on that summer day, a pass-rushing, havoc-creating defensive force was born. Shrieve isn't the only "lightweight" on the end for O'Neill. His counterpart, Chris Van Skyock, is 6-foot, 180 pounds.
Quarterbacks, beware.
A key part of O'Neill's swarming defense, Shrieve, who also plays wide receiver, has 36 tackles and 13 sacks. Van Skyock has 51 tackles and 11 sacks. Both are seniors.
"I was ecstatic when coach asked me to play defensive end," said Shrieve, who played on defense as a defensive back as a sophomore. "I'd rather do the hitting instead of being hit. To be honest, it's just been a lot of hard work. I'm not really intimidated by anyone unless they put me on my back. That has happened a few times, but I've gotten right back up."
Finochio inserted Van Skyock at defensive end last season. The way the coach saw it, is what Van Skyock lacked in size, he would make up with speed and grit. Facing more and more spread teams, Finochio figured the Raiders would benefit for more speed rushers.
Van Skyock agrees.
"You can't ever be scared and you just have to know your assignment," Van Skyock said. "You have to be physically aggressive and speed kills. It's nice to have speed, it helps a lot."
Going up against players with 50 pounds on them, Van Skyock and Shrieve make up for it with leverage and get off the ball quicker than their opponent.
"It doesn't matter how much weight you have on me," Van Skyock said. "If I get off the ball before them, usually I'm going to knock them down and get inside."
Since Van Skyock was such a success last year, Finochio went to Shrieve during preseason, after projected starter Taylor Hughes went down with a shoulder injury. The slender prototype on the end has certainly worked at O'Neill.
It has won two straight Section 9 titles and became the first local Class C team to win a state playoff game in 16 years with a 35-18 victory over Westchester County's Woodlands in the quarterfinals last Friday.
"These guys have Osi Umenyiora speed, but with a Deacon Jones mentality," Finochio said. "To do what they do, you have to be tough. They are not big kids, but they are tough as nails. They play with a chip on their shoulder and they want to punish the quarterback."

Wayland campus offers military couple chance to meet goals
SAN ANTONIO – Robert and Martha Vela have seen the world, thanks to the U.S. Armed Forces. But while their military career brought travel and adventure, a college degree remained elusive as the couple moved regularly.
After settling in Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio a few years ago, however, the couple was able to pull together their credits at Wayland Baptist University's San Antonio campus and graduate in the summer of 2005.
"The rewarding part has been being able to move together and ... pursue our goals together. My lifetime goal was to get a degree, and ... I was able to accomplish my goals and serve my country at the same time," said Martha, who hopes to pursue a master's degree at Wayland and teach in the future.
The Velas are not unlike many students who enroll at Wayland each year. Wayland's external campuses and cooperation with the military bases bring education within reach for many students. Besides San Antonio, Wayland also maintains a strong presence on military bases in Hawaii; Anchorage and Fairbanks, Alaska; Altus, Okla.; Sierra Vista and Phoenix, Ariz.; Albuquerque and Clovis, N.M.; Wichita Falls, Texas.
The couple's story begins in 1989, when native Houstonian Martha first enlisted in the U.S. Army Reserves just out of high school. Robert, originally from San Antonio, enlisted in 1990. Martha was attending Texas A&M University when her reserve unit got called up due to Operation Desert Storm. Soon, she was in Advanced Individual Training, where she met Robert.
"Everything changed after that," Martha recalled, adding the couple soon married and she then enlisted for active duty. Her first assignment was to Neurenberg, Germany, though her new husband was stationed at Fort Lewis in Washington. Five months later, the Army moved Robert to Germany as well.
The couple lived in Germany for a few years, giving birth to their first child while overseas. The family then moved to Fort Bliss in El Paso, then to Fort Hood in Killeen. The family had a brief separation when Robert was deployed to Bosnia and Serbia for six months, then moved once more, this time to Fort Jackson, S.C. Their second child was born in South Carolina, and the third in Germany after the Velas moved once more.
Robert was deployed once more early in 2003 to Kuwait and Iraq, but soon was reassigned to the United States since their young son had special medical needs. The family moved to Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio in May 2003.
Throughout their marriage and Army careers, Martha said education was important but difficult with many moves.
"Through our careers, we've gone to many different schools," she said. "We just went wherever we were."
But it wasn't until they arrived in San Antonio and found Wayland that they were able to pull together their various educational experiences and make the dream of a degree become a reality. They finished their Bachelor of Science in Occupational Education degrees in just under 18 months, graduating in June 2005.
Recently, the couple returned from additional Army training in South Carolina to become Army recruiters, selected from their group. Both are sergeants first class and will be serving as recruiters in San Antonio and South Texas.
Despite the difficulty in pinning down their initial degrees, both Robert and Martha have an interest in continuing their education. Now that they know they'll be settling in the San Antonio area for awhile, she plans to return to Wayland for a master's degree in education, hoping to become a high school teacher after retiring from the Army. Robert is considering a career in finance or banking but has also considered teaching.
Though the Army career can be trying, the Velas believe it also has many rewards.
"To me, the rewarding part has been being able to move together and also be able to pursue our goals together. My lifetime goal was to get a degree, and all I aimed for was my bachelor's degree at the time. I was able to accomplish my goal and serve my country at the same time," Martha said. "The difficult part has been the family separations… Every time we've gone on temporary duties it meant one of us was left as a single parent. It's gone both ways for us."
Robert agrees.
"The travel was definitely one of the rewards as well as my education from Wayland Baptist," he said. "The moving was just part of the job, but we've enjoyed it as well. I was the first in my family to go to college, let alone to complete a degree, so that part was very important to us. Plus, it is a good example for our family, for our kids (now 3, 4 and 12) to look up at us and see that Mom and Dad did this through all that."
The third generation in his family to serve in the military, Robert said he and Martha expect to retire from the Army in another five years when they've logged their 20 years. From there the future is wide open.

Time for change
Most of what I know about the Port of Hood River comes from reading the paper. My general impression is that things at the Port have not been running smoothly. This is usually a sign that there needs to be a management change. We are fortunate that we have three good candidates: Dr. Lars Bergstrom, Cory Roeseler and Kathy Watson. I hope you will join me in voting for them.
Peter Cornelison
Hood River
Vote for Watson
We should be extending our thanks to neighbors who are willing to serve the public in unpaid, high pressure jobs like the port commission and the school board. These positions require a huge commitment of time, patience and diligence. Most meetings take place after work, while the rest of us sit home in our easy chairs.
I know campaigns bring up odd approaches. However, I don't think we want Hood River represented by a port candidate who makes off-the-wall, personal and inaccurate comments about his opponent. This is what happened in a May 4 letter to the editor written by Craig Marquardo.
His opponent, Kathy Watson, is extremely ethical and devoted to improving life in the Gorge. She is a leader in her church, a business owner and a valuable asset to the community. I believe she is fully capable of moving the port forward to become a real benefit to Hood River.
Kathy has been on the port commission only six months. During that time, she has been actively asking residents for their opinions on the future of the port. She is listening. Now we need to re-elect her to get the job done. Please join with me in voting for Kathy Watson so that we can have effective leadership on the port.

'Show your face'
In D.C. I believe members on both sides of the aisle should show their true colors and give the Presidential judicial nominees an up or down vote. Those who think a conservative should not be confirmed — show your face and say so. Those who feel just the opposite — show your face and say so. What an enlightening way to help voters in the next election decide who leaves D.C. and who stays.

Agree to disagree
It seems to me that this water quality issue has recently taken on a personal tone by some. I was reminded of some wisdom shared with me long ago by my wise ol' grand-daddy:
"Life's too short to drink cheap wine;" and
"Agree to disagree, but never allow community water quality issues to put a strain on relationships among friends, acquaintances, or tennis buddies."
Erik Eastman
Hood River
Insist on honesty
The campaign between Kathy Watson and Craig Marquardo for Position 3 on the Port of Hood River Commission deserves special attention. Voters need to weigh the credibility of the two candidates. Kathy Watson states clearly that the Port should promote economic growth in the region that contributes to community lifestyle values. She showed her commitment to this vision when she helped Mt. Hood Meadows incorporate a social and environmental sustainability program in their business plan. Her new restaurant in Bingen shows that her vision extends up and down the Gorge, beyond political boundaries.
In the case of Craig Marquardo, voters need to take a hard look at the growing list of inconsistencies in Mr. Marquardo's account of his personal and professional history.
The Hood River News did a fine public service by publishing the results of their background research on Mr. Marquardo's candidate statement.
The State Elections Division is reviewing his candidate statement for violation of election law. The local American Legion Chapter also defended their collective honor by questioning Mr. Marquardo's claims to a Purple Heart. Voters need to do their part to ensure the credibility of our local elections. Send a message to present and future candidates that honesty and transparency matter as much as your political position in Hood River County.

Hood River
Wrong choice
How the Hood River News can dismiss Port of Hood River Commission candidates Lars Bergstrom and Cory Roeseler with such hackneyed cliche as "change is rarely good as an end to itself" is as weak as the News' rationale for the endorsement of Commissioners Duckwall and Hosford itself (Hood River News' editorial, May 1).
The only rationale I can find in the News' support for the two incumbents is "demonstrated service and experience." While both incumbents may be fine individuals who have given their time to the community, the primary result of their "experience" from my observation is we have two commissioners who are stuck in their ways, not open to forward-thinking and have a general lack of vision. Their "experience" has led to misguided attempts to develop condominiums and shopping centers down to the water's edge at the waterfront, gridlock, lawsuits, jobs lost, businesses moving to The Dalles and businesses wanting to move here being turned away.
On the other hand, in Dr. Lars Bergstrom, economics professor and director of sales and marketing at Innovative Composite Engineering, and Cory Roeseler, aerospace engineer with Hood Technology Corporation, we have the opportunity to elect two of this area's best and brightest. With experience as a marketing director for a local company, Dr. Lars Bergstrom is exactly the kind of person we need on the Port Commission. Cory Roeseler's experience as a key player in a small, local technology firm will serve us immensely well in that his firm is among exactly the kinds of businesses we need to attract here.
I would have hoped I could have expected more from the Hood River News than the same old, tired, business-as-usual-is-best reasoning. A vote for Cory and Lars couldn't be more important and meaningful than a vote for change in and of itself. A vote for Cory and Lars is a vote for leadership with the energy, vision, passion and experience to move Hood River and the Hood River Valley forward.

Signs appropriate
It has come to our attention that Measure 14-23 proponents are complaining that the signs on fluoridation supporters property which call for "Healthy Clean Water" and a NO vote are somehow misleading.
That the drinking water will be both healthier and clean with sodium fluoride water fluoridation has been a core position of our Healthy Teeth for a Lifetime campaign. The name of our political committee, The Hood River Healthy Water Committee, reflects this.
We have restated this very point over and over in lectures and in campaign materials. It is the answer to the false claim that "garbage" will be "dumped" into the water that is the core belief of 14-23 sponsors.
It is neither confusing nor misleading, rather the reason a No vote on 14-23 is proper.

Stop war now
As I returned home Sunday from a nice family get-together with my 80-year-old mother and my two brothers and sister, I read an article in the Sunday Parade magazine about Jared Ganacias, 12, of Fort Hood, Texas. His mother, Corinne, is a specialist in the U.S. Army who has been deployed in Iraq since January.
Jared said that he missed his mom and prayed every night for her safe return. At the end of the article I was brought to tears to think that this mom may never return to this boy and his brother and two sisters. He said what he missed the most is the hugs when she hugs him real tight and just comforts him.
We need to stop this war NOW! We started this war more than two years ago and over 1,589 American soldiers have died in Iraq with no end in sight. How many mothers and fathers have we already lost in this war and how many of our children no longer have parents to hug them at night when they go to bed? How many Iraqi children have died? Is the world a safer place because of our actions? I don't think so.

Forward to fluoride
The series on fluoride is interesting for me, because I moved to Hood River in May, 1949. In the early 1950s, I worked enthusiastically on a committee to fluoridate Hood River city water.
There is a parallel: I'm reading the same old anti-arguments.
Now I'm 50 years older and wiser, and my sons are adults, but it is not too late to help teeth and gums of all ages. I look forward to fluoride in Hood River water to save aging root systems.

Really? How would you see an expanding balloon in a very large opaque jar? How would you see a cylinder that was increasing in length if you were looking at it end-on? There are quite a few scenarios where something may be seen to be expanding from the inside, but not from the outside.
It's the fallacy of the excluded middle.
No special pleading required; as above, it doesn't apply to every conceivable scenario.
On the contrary, what you're saying is "Everything we can (currently) observe is limited, therefore my explanation[1] is true". 1. In this case, "No actual infinities exist".

"Horns," starring Daniel Radcliffe and directed by Alexandre Aja, has been picked up for distribution by Dimension and Radius-TWC, with plans for a 2014 theatrical release.
The supernatural thriller premiered last month at the Toronto International Film Festival, where Radcliffe also appeared in the romantic comedy "The F Word" and as the young poet Allen Ginsberg in "Kill Your Darlings." The 24-year-old actor seems to be in the midst of fully launching himself into the next phase of his career after his run in the "Harry Potter" franchise.
"Horns" finds Radcliffe playing a young man who finds himself blamed for the death of his girlfriend, played by Juno Temple. He then discovers a pair of horns growing from his head. The film, based on a novel by Joe Hill and adapted by Keith Bunin, also stars Max Minghella, Joe Anderson, Kelli Garner, Heather Graham, David Morse, Kathleen Quinlan and James Remar.
PHOTOS: Hollywood backlot moments
At a Los Angeles Times Indie Focus Screening Series event earlier this week for "Kill Your Darlings," Radcliffe appeared alongside costar Dane DeHaan, director and co-writer John Krokidas and co-writer Austin Bunn to discuss the film's depiction of the birth of the Beat Generation.
The first question from the audience referred to Harry Potter and how long Radcliffe thought it would take for him to move on from being so closely associated with the character.
"That's not really up to me. For me, I have," he said. "I know I've spent 10 years playing an incredibly famous character, and for some people I will always remain that and for some people I won't. And I completely accept that. As long as it's not affecting casting directors' decisions, then I'm OK.
"I do get asked a lot if I'm worried about being typecast. And I haven't been thus far," Radcliffe continued. "I think if you show you're willing to put yourself out there and do stuff that's different, people will give you the opportunity to do that. As for how long it will take, I don't know. When you see me introduced on a television show without it being mentioned, you'll know."

I posted a similar video entitled A Day Made Of Glass made by Corning last year where the glass manufacturer showed off some of the future technologies that could be made possible.
They have now posted a nice follow up video again showing off what could be done.
A Day Made Of Glass 2
Corning have also made a companion video that takes you behind the scenes of the main video explaining what is reality, what is fiction and how some of what you see is made possible.

Some of the things here are certainly closer than we think whilst others are clearly science fiction but even so, the future certainly looks exciting.

A Cherry Hill-based developer is moving ahead with four new affordable housing projects totaling more than 270 units in southern and central New Jersey, the firm announced.
The company, Ingerman, is building the rental apartments with the help of more than $22 million in federal grants and tax credits, the developer said this week. The largest project is in Ocean Township, where the firm will add 76 age-restricted units to an existing retail development known as Waretown Town Center.
The other three projects are slated for Perth Amboy, Woodbridge and Burlington City, totaling 70, 62 and 65 units, respectively, according to a news release. Both the Perth Amboy and Burlington plans will anchor larger redevelopment projects, with the latter calling for a rehabilitation of an existing mill and industrial area.
All told, Ingerman is receiving $18.65 million Community Development Block Grant funds and $3.5 million in tax credits for the four projects, the news release said.
The firm also said it recently has completed other projects in Woodbridge and Perth Amboy.
The 25-year-old developer, led by CEO Brad Ingerman, has been especially active in recent years in its home region of South Jersey. The projects include rebooting and completing the long-delayed LumberYards project in Collingswood.

Microsoft wants to advertise the game even further. There are some ways it is possible to find out whats happening with the server so that you can better plan your free time at the same time you wait to play. Service was great, because its at Republic. So you dont need to produce the service always perform request to a different service.

Should you do an excellent job on all the measures you will have a prosperous quiz evening. What Everybody Dislikes About Pubg Twitter and Why The feedback is provided in a personal and interactive way. It is not given mostly because people dont ask for it-theyre just not aware that they can ask for it, and many people lack the skills to get the information they need. If people seek their own feedback at one time that is quite beneficial for them, theyll be more open to receiving the feedback. Also, the majority of people prefer to get negative feedback privately. Contrary to popular misperceptions, they want on-the-job feedback--they want to know how they are doing, what is going well, and what things do they need to work on. No need to consider about acknowledgments, just make certain you can take care of the messages fast enough and return a 204. Be sure to keep and eye on the logs to see whether your messages come through.

When I first saw this picture, my first thought was, "Whoa! The Royal family has balls! Holy dang!" I mean, my eyes quite literally popped out of my head. Do you see what I see? No, not the men in their dapper suits or the women in their day coats, or Bonnie Prince George. No, I spy - a Sickert!
Ever since Patricia Cornwall has named Walter Sickert as Jack the Ripper, rumor/rumour has it the Royal family has taken the attitude of, "Definitely not! Couldn't be!" And, of course, "There is no way in bloody hell we'll ever accept that!" This picture just proves those rumours to be true. As they are the owners of some of Walter Sickert's paintings. Behind Prince Charles there is a painting of George V and his race manager. The painting is named; A Conversation at Aintree, 1927-1930 and sits in the Morning Room of St. James' Palace. When I saw this, I knew that their rejection of Sickert being the killer must be true. But if not him, than who?
The new Ripper is Aaron Kosminski. A Polish Jew living in London at the time. I really believe it was him, especially based on the new evidence. However, it can be argued that the greatest evidence is in the pattern of behaviour/behavior, a form of DNA unto itself. When the police had cause to lock Aaron Kosminski up in the insane asylum, the murders stopped. That right there to me is very strong evidence. Sickert lived on, and the murders stopped. Murderers just don't stop, especially in the heinous fashion these women were killed. Which begs the question: What was Sickert doing writing all of those letters to the newspaper? My guess is that he was trying to keep the case going and highlight the conditions these women worked in, maybe? I suspect Aaron was disguised as a woman, therefore he had a shawl on. This has been proposed before, that the killer was disguised as a woman. Whatever the case it is good to see that this is a cold case that will not die. And that the hunt for Jack the Ripper will always continue.
This is a room I've made on my Olioboard based on the Sickert painting that has been highlighted today. However, this living room is a sort of office where detectives would work on cracking the case. The palladium bookshelf would hold all sorts of artifacts. Palladium was a style that was very popular in Victorian England. This room is a mix of 19th century furnishings and touchings and the modern world of DNA. Everything here is done in that style. For the roof and floor I would have a dark hardwood. Note the pillows, appropriate for the case that is being worked on. I would have the Sickert surrounded by modern art. The tufting on the chairs represents that time period too, as tufting was popular back then. Everything is a nod to Jack the Ripper or DNA. All of it is symbolic. The medical chart doesn't look so creepy either. The wire bulb lights are like something you would find in the back alley of a Ripper alleyway or industrial complex. The palladium mirrors represent looking into the past. A molecule coffee table with white roses on it no less, a case that is constantly resurrected. A basket for leisurely reading, baskets were common of the poor women who lived in the East End back then. A bird cage, enormously popular at the time, even among the poor. Maybe this Sickert business isn't so scary after all.

Consensus Report
The Health Hazard Evaluation Program at NIOSH (2009)DELS
Each report is produced by a committee of experts selected by the Academy to address a particular statement of task and is subject to a rigorous, independent peer review; while the reports represent views of the committee, they also are endorsed by the Academy. Learn more on our expert consensus reports.
Exposure to chemical or physical hazards in the workplace can lead to illness, injury, or even death. For many hazards, there are no standards to protect worker health, or existing standards may be obsolete. The mission of the Health Hazard Evaluation Program within the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) is to respond to requests to investigate suspected new occupational health hazards or known hazards that occur in new occupational settings. The program has been instrumental in identifying a wide array of hazards such as potentially fatal latex allergies associated with latex glove use in medical facilities, and the well publicized link between the use of a butter flavoring in popcorn plants and a disease that became known as "popcorn lung." This report evaluates the NIOSH Health Hazard Evaluation Program for its relevance and impact in identifying and responding to occupational health hazards. The report finds that the program has had a positive impact on workforce conditions, responds well during public health emergencies, and offers excellent training programs for occupational health professionals. The program could be further strengthened by increasing its visibility, by expanding communication and outreach activities, and by expanding its training programs. This report is part of a series of reviews of NIOSH programs by the National Research Council.
