One of the most recognizable buildings in London has seen substantial interest from buyers, as its latest developers try to create an 8 billion pounds ($12.9 billion) "new city center" south of the Thames.
Battersea Power Station has been through several different owners since it was decommissioned nearly three decades ago, but none has succeeded in putting their redevelopment plans into action.
The latest investors, a Malaysian consortium, bought the site from Ireland's National Asset Management Agency, which manages debts that have been taken on by the Irish state, after its previous owners were put into receivership.
Rob Tincknell, chief executive officer of Battersea Power Station Development Company, told CNBC he was confident of the latest scheme's success, with close to 600 of the high-end apartments and townhouses -three-quarters of those available - already reserved less than a week after they went on the market. The properties come with a hefty price tag of more than 1,000 pounds ($1,600) per square foot,and the most expensive penthouses are expected to reach more than 6 million pounds ($9.6 million).
"We are the town center of a bigger area – Nine Elms. This whole site is now under development and we are the new town center," Tincknell said. "We are just a mile from Westminster [home to the U.K. parliament]."

The news came after some better-than-expected data on the U.K. housing market. The influential Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors survey said that estate agents are more optimistic than they have been for nearly two years – and added that banks were finally bringing mortgage rates down.

LA Galaxy midfielder David Beckham has revealed that he has been left out of the Team GB Olympic football squad. T
he former England captain had been included in coach Stuart Pearce's 35-man shortlist, and was expected to be named in the final squad of 18 as one of three over-age players.
Craig Bellamy has already confirmed his place in Pearce's plans and fellow Welshman Ryan Giggs is also reportedly set to be involved.
Liverpool midfielder Joe Cole and Manchester City's Micah Richards have also been linked after both missed out on a place in England's squad for Euro 2012.
Everyone knows how much playing for my country has always meant to me," Beckham said in a statement. "So I would have been honoured to have been part of this unique Team GB squad.
Naturally I am very disappointed, but there will be no bigger supporter of the team than me. And like everyone, I will be hoping they can win the gold.
Beckham had hoped to make a comeback on the international stage having captained England for nearly six years between 2000 and 2006.
He is the Three Lions' most-capped outfield player with 115 national team appearances to his name.
Now 37, the former Manchester United star last turned out for his country in 2009 having left Real Madrid two years earlier to play in the MLS.

Nationalism is an interesting thing here. It's different than in America it seems. I don't know if I can give it justice in a short space. There's definitely an ongoing effort to find a sense of identity. What about Canada. It seems that whenever I hear Canada mentioned in association with Black History, it's always people from America escaping to Canada. But there are problems there as well? I always kind of thought of the situation for blacks as being a bit better in the Commonwealth than in America. p.s. I don't blame you for not knowing an abbreviation. There's far too much specialized info out there to judge people on knowing or not knowing it. I was just shocked when I thought you were American. For an American black to not know MLK jr. would be, I think, exceedingly strange. But who knows. I grew up in a part of the country with an overwhelming white majority. I'm hardly an expert on what the knowledge base of the average person in the Black community would be.

For a minute, I thought that you and Canucktechie were high fiving each other on telling me that I don't know sh-t. I agree with you on Canada. In grade school, teachers would talk about the underground railroad ad nausium, you'd think that it was a holy shrine made out of gold. Canada isn't perfect, by any means. Canadians are friendly, but they just hide their real feelings better than Americans, some of whom are proud to be known as people telling you just what they feel. Canada has taken how it deals with 'foreigners' from America, and in history, there is little difference between how Canada and the North of Amercia dealt with blacks and others. I really do admire the Russian people and culture, it seems like a bad time for them if they turn on others just because they are not Russian. I hope they get out of the loop, and into glory again. I've seen a program about Russian gangs, some of them turning to the NAZIS as their guide, with flags and all. Can you say 'messed up?'

Negr is a russia version of Negro, which is black in portuges (and possibly spanish). Seriously if you are planning on going to Russia, you better get used to the idea that people will call you that, because most of them won't mean it in the "*beep*" way. Also "black" means Caucasian in Russia (sounds funny to someone from NA doesn't it?), meaning the darker, middle eastern-looking people of the Caucauses. Blacks in Russia were a ussialy a lot better off then pretty much in any other "white" country, because the USSR decided that since in the States the blacks are discriminated against Russia must accept them to get a moral edge over the States. Now in the late 90s there was some immigration (very little) to Russia from Africa and as a result the number of blacks increased somewhat and they at least became visible in big cities. But the attitudes changed in the mid 90s with rise of nationalism and xenophobia. As long as there just a few people of colour who wanted to become Russian it posed no problem. But with the increase of those people of colour who were obviously foreigners with their own cultural practices etc. people started to percieve blacks as a thread, i.e. the rasist backlash. Russians are quite xenophobic. We have a very strong system of "ower own" and "foreigner, alien". "Ower own" doesn't however mean blonde slavic looking people. It's more of a cultural thing. If you speak Russian, say that you are Russian than in 95% of all encounters you will be accepted as Russian. I am Russian, yet my great-grand father was of Lak nation of North Caucasus, and my father has some Roma blood. Or, more famously Victor Tsoi of Korean descent. Or even Pushkin whose grandfather was a black african. Yet if someone starts saying Pushkin was black they risk getting quite a beating, because he was a RUSSIAN whose grandfather was african...

I have to hang my head and admit that I am fascinated by pop culture and the crazy world that revolves around it. The excesses of young Hollywood and the music industry makes me sick to my stomach. I can't help but think of the people in my poor town who are struggling to feed their kids and keep a shelter over their heads, while thugs like Justin Bieber blow more money in a single party than many make in decade.
Waking up to the news that Justin Bieber, the Teflon Teen™, was finally busted for something, after getting away with so much shit over the years, made me smile.
When I heard that he resisted arrest, wouldn't take his hands out of his pockets according to one report, I immediately thought of Roy Middleton, the Florida man who was shot at 15 times by police in his own driveway while retrieving some cigarettes out of the car. He was black, you know? Thankfully, he lived through it.
As the day goes on, the sensationalist cable new networks will use the Bieber story as a good reason to ditch all the other important stories happening in the world today. For example, our awesome President Barack Obama announced an initiative to combat rape yesterday and the evidence against Chris Christie and his bullying ways are growing in scope.
Based on the look on Justin's face, he probably thinks it's cool to get busted. He knows damn well that he can afford the best lawyers you can buy. Something tells me this isn't the last mug shot we will see from the Teflon Teen™.
(I don't really have the trademark for Teflon Teen, so feel free to use the hell out of it. :)

In HCMC and Hanoi there are several that seem good. I would also welcome any feedback on the following schools: 1. ILA - HCMC (I have read the thread for ILA, but it mostly talks about teaching there, not the courses). 2. Apollo - Hanoi and HCMC. CELTA. They seem very helpful and organised. 3. TITC (The International TEFL Corporation) - HCMC. They responded to my application very quickly and offered contacts for accommodation. 4. Via Lingua - HCMC. They offer a TEFL of 130hours + 10 hours of teaching which seems the most extensive training of all the courses I have seen. However, they are the most expensive: 1750 USD! But perhaps it is worth it? 5. Language Link - Hanoi. CELTA. Their advantage is they only require a 300USD deposit. Disadvantage is that the website doesn't mention anything about help with accommodation or visas. This leads me to think that they may be less organised/helpful. 6. TEFL International - HCMC. TEFL. The website doesn't look very professional. They offer the exact same prices as TITC (number 3 above) so it is possible that they are the same entity, or related. 7. Cactus - CELTA in Hanoi, TEFL in Cambodia+HCMC. Cactus seems to act like the agent for schools worldwide. Cactus itself seems organised, but as they don't give you the names of the actual schools, it is hard to know what one will be able to expect on arrival. The fact that the TEFL starts with 9 days in Cambodia seems a bit odd... I am leaning toward the a CELTA as I have read on the forum that it is a bit more intensive and slightly more accepted worldwide than the TEFL. Correct me if I am wrong! I would like to thank in advance anyone who replies to this post.

They allow just about anyone to pass, but the better entry level jobs require it. Do you intend working in Vietnam after the course? If yes, that should sway who you do the course with and where. Check out their contracts if you can, look for hourly rates/minimum paid hours/holidays/end of contract bonuses/room for career development. The course should be standardized so it shouldn't really matter who you do it with. The CELTA trainers come and go too so it's a bit of a lottery if you get nice ones or those on a month long power trip who just love making people go through as much pain as possible. I heard from someone that their trainers said they have to cry at some stage or they're not working hard enough. It might be BS but having 12 adults totally relying on you for 4 weeks goes to some people's heads. ILA/Apollo/LLV all should at least give you some guidance on where to stay. If you come on a tourist visa, the HR departments in those schools will extend your visa.

They especially discusses the attitudes of the providers, along with the quality of the courses. My very down and dirty analysis: use ILA if you want a CELTA and to get a job there after completion and don't mind the pressure and possible rudeness. Likely the best training, other than the rudeness. Use Apollo if you want a CELTA and a more courteous experience. Use TEFL I if you want a TESOL you can acquire just by showing up and are willing to accept what that implies with the delivery of the program. There is also one provider that does it for about $600 that is a fake cert, they do have classes, but they are bs, the parent organization is not associated with the program and it is essentially a scam, however the cert is accepted here in VN.

Come on, Mark, that's BS and you know it. There is no guarantee you will get a job with ILA if you do your CELTA there. Their idea fo "support" after the course is to give you a sheet with some recruiters' names. Avoid ILA. My suggestion for CELTA: Apollo in Haiphong. Back to top mark_in_saigonJoined: 20 Sep 2009Posts: 837 Posted: Thu Oct 04, 2012 7:27 am Post subject: I would not go so far as to say it is bs. I recall one poster said the majority of her class got hired by ILA after doing the ILA CELTA. Maybe I should have said - if you have a great desire to work at ILA, taking the CELTA there will give you an advantage. Either way, about the same meaning, and I hope most of the people understood what I meant, if not, they do now. I am not at all a fan of ILA's CELTA, if you read about what happened with me when I was seeking a provider, you will see that their attitude convinced me not to use them. Still, I do try to be fair and honest, and I think the quality of their program is better than most (any?) of the others (at least in HCMC), and then the possibility of getting hired with them upon completion could be a big factor for a lot of younger, less experienced people who want a job with a stable employer. Plus, the fact that the student completed their program (compared to going with a less respected provider of certificates) has to help his general employability as well. But yeah, for my PERSONAL money, if I were to do it again, I would use Apollo because of the issue of attitudes.

Your time and efforts are very much appreciated! Mark-in-Saigon: I apologise profusely for not doing my homework and searching all posts thoroughly. I did search for CELTA, found the monster thread you speak about, but did not scroll down far enough to read the comments re: ILA and Apollo. It must be quite frustrating for you as you put a lot of effort into your replies only to have some silly newbie (like me) ask the same question! Biliana: Thank you so much for bringing this to my attention. I searched the threads on notarisation (note: to find them you have to search with the US spelling: notarization) and found a whole world of pain awaits for me regarding authenticating my transcripts. Well, better to know it now, than later! As far as notarising the CELTA cert, one school told me that they were unaware of any procedure, and that I should take it to my Embassy for notarisation. Do you think that is true? Do I understand you correctly that depending on the country of registration of the company depends on which embassy I have to go to to get it notarised? Kornan - Are you saying that Apollo in Hanoi is better than Apollo in HCMC? Kurtz - thanks for your post, as always, you provide useful information. My instincts and research agree with all that you have said. CELTA is the way to go. If I go to Hanoi, then Apollo. If HCMC I have to decide between ILA and Apollo...key question is if the possible risk of rudeness is worth the slightly added benefit ILA can bring...or if I prefer kindness After all is said and done, I know the certificate will not make me a good teacher. Only desire, hard work, practice and experience can do that! Luckily I have a lot of hair, so if I end up pulling some of it out, it won't matter so much! .

This is a very bright and bouncy summery piece driven by the tinkly strumming of a ukulele accompanied by a bass and a simple piano melody. For the second half of the track some light electric piano and a tambourine are added to help the music drive. This track would be perfect background music for any happy or childlike presentation. Included are a full version with an ending as well as a seamless loop for your convenience.

"Education is about more than acquiring knowledge. It empowers people to achieve their potential and opens up new perspectives for their futures. This is precisely the aim of the E&V primary school project in Togo," said Ina Schlüter, Executive Director of Engel & Völkers Charity e.V. Nicole Abra Kebovi and Jean Komi Agounyo – two pupils at the "École privée Engel & Völkers" are a prime example of how this vision is becoming a reality.
Both children have been a part of the project since the outset. They are ten years old and began their education at the kindergarten that forms part of the E&V primary school. They are now in the fifth grade. They are hardworking and well behaved. Nicole has even been one of the best three pupils in the whole of her year since the first grade. When she grows up she wants to work in banking. Jean has even greater ambitions. He explains in all seriousness that he intends to become a minister or the president. If that doesn't work out though, he can also imagine himself as a carpenter.
Nicole and Jean are looking optimistically to the future. Even though they both started out life in difficult circumstances. A sad state of affairs brought Jean to the primary school. A bush fire had destroyed his family's home. A delegation from an aid organisation paid them a visit and then told Jean's parents about the E&V primary school. Jean has to walk two kilometres every morning and evening, to go to school and back home again. At the weekend he helps his parents work the land and supports them with the housework. Despite the fact that he has succumbed to malaria on several occasions, he is a life-loving boy who enjoys going to school. Nicole lives directly in Agbetiko and is, unlike Jean, an orphan. She has been brought up by her grandmother together with her two younger siblings. An auntie now takes care of all of them since their grandmother has now become so old. Nicole helps to look after her grandmother and her siblings.
You would like to help? Then become a sponsor.
Sponsors of children at the Engel & Völkers primary school in Togo are being sought all the time. For 25 euros a month, a sponsor can cover the costs of schooling, uniform, all teaching materials and two meals a day for the sponsored child. Towards the end of the school year, all sponsors receive current photos and a report about the child they are sponsoring, enabling them to follow their progress at school and personal development.
This sponsorship can be taken up at any time, and can also be arranged over a limited period.
If you are interested in sponsoring a child or have any questions please contact: email@example.com

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (Jan. 6, 2006) - The Lady Bucs will be looking to stay perfect in the Atlantic Sun on Saturday afternoon, as they complete the Northern Florida swing with a matchup against Jacksonville. ETSU won the first half on the trip on Thursday with an 80-59 win over North Florida.
About the Game ...
ETSU will be looking to stay undefeated in the A-Sun with a win over Jacksonville tonight, while the Dolphins will be vying for their first win in Conference play. The Lady Bucs nabbed a 80-59 decision over JU's cross-town rival North Florida on Thursday, while the Dolphins suffered a tough 66-60 home loss to Kennesaw State.
Scouting the Dolphins ...
The Dolphins are currently 3-7 and have yet to pick up an A-Sun win at 0-3. JU has fallen to UNF, Kennesaw State, and FAU in league play, while its three wins have come against Bethune-Cookman, and Savannah State twice. A trio of Dolphins are averaging double digits with Ashley Williams leading the way with 16.9 ppg, while Sheena Carpenter, and Nakina Alford are tallying 12.9, and 10.0, respectively. Williams and Carpenter have also been tough on the boards, each posting just below nine rebounds a night. The pair are also two of the best rebounders in the league, both ranked in the A-Sun's top five. Carpenter and teammate Regina Omoite have been the Dolphins' most productive passers, each with 31 assists on the season.
The Series ...
Tonight's meeting is the first in program history.
Last time out ...
Senior B.J. Banjo (Baltimore, Md.) scored her 1,000th-career point on Thursday night, as the Lady Bucs topped North Florida, 80-59, to remain unblemished in the Atlantic Sun at 4-0. The senior needed just a single point to reach the milestone going into tonight's game, but she didn't stop there, netting a game-high 23 points. Banjo becomes the 14th player in program history to reach the feat, and the second in the past calendar year as former teammate Tiffani Mayes eclipsed the barrier on Jan. 22, 2005. Jackie Beik paced the Ospreys with 22 points, including 14 in the second half. Beik also posted a game-high nine rebounds in the loss. Tamara Hubbard was next in the line for UNF with 18, as the Ospreys drop to 3-8 on the season, 1-3 in the A-Sun. Banjo led three Lady Bucs in double digits with Candace Gibson (Warner Robins, Ga.) tallying 15, and Kelly Turman (Atlanta, Ga.) adding a season-high 14. Jenny Norman (Peachtree City, Ga.) led the Bucs on the boards with a team-high seven. With the score tied 8-8 early, the Lady Bucs mounted a seven-point run, paced by four points from Gibson, to take the 15-8 lead. But the Ospreys would make a surge of their own, rattling off nine-straight points to gain the 17-15 advantage. Hubbard led the Ospreys early on, posting nine points in the opening eight minutes. The Lady Bucs would weather the storm however, ending the half with a 22-7 run, to take a commanding 37-22 lead going into the locker room. Though UNF was able to remain closer in the second half (43-37), it was never able to recover from Lady Bucs' frame-ending run.

One with domain registrar (which in my opinion TOTALLY defeats the purpose of even using ISPConfig), reconfigured /etc/hosts, reconfigured A records with MX records, you name it, it's been done. The mail system simply does not work.

'Rosquillas' from Reinosa
Ingredients: 700g of flour 3 egg yolks 1 whole egg 180g of butter 1 small glass of anis a pinch of salt crushed sugar
Mix the butter cold with 300g of sieved flour. Then allow the mixture to stand for half an hour. In a dish put 300g more of flour and make a volcano shape to put the egg yolks, anis and salt inside. Mix, adding a little cold water, to obtain quite a soft dough. Make a ball and cover with a cloth. Leave to stand for 40 more minutes. Then, roll out the ball and put the lard in the centre. This should have been prepared previously, as with pastry dough: first knead it a couple of times and then leave it to stand in a cool place for an hour. Next knead it a couple more times, let it stand again and continue up to about six kneadings. Role out the dough to a thickness of about a centimetre. The, cut strips of between ten and twelve centimetres long by one wide. Join the two ends of each strip, forming a ring, and put on to baking trays lightly greased with butter and sprinkled with flour. Glaze with beaten egg and cook in the oven. They should rise or expand to four or five centimetres. Once cold, bath in syrup at 24ºC and drain. Then pass them through icing sugar on both sides.

I sit by the bed watching as my love, my heart's desire lays asleep. A vision of beauty and perfection. This piece is about life, romance and happiness. Played with feeling and with depth of emotional charge. This is a short romantic piano piece with subtle strings to supply warmth in the background. Follows a simple ABA structure. I should think this could be used in television or radio drama and documentary projects as well as possibly for an atmospheric film backdrop.
Files included: New Arrangement 1:54 Original Version 1:39
Since it's original release I have recorded a new version of this piece with a more interesting and subtle arrangement. Both versions are included and in the preview also. The original version is second in the preview.
This is an epic, cinematic piece of orchestral fantasy adventure music to take you on an emotional journey of discovery and reflection.

The New Season of Prankster Planet Starts Today!
By Graydon Gordian
Sesame Workshop is excited to announce the launch of the second season of The Adventures of The Electric Company on Prankster Planet, the newest segment on our award-winning show The Electric Company.
The Electric Company has evolved since the iconic program first aired in 1971. Since the show was revived in 2009, we have utilized a variety of media to ensure that the show's rigorously researched educational material, which has a renewed focus on math, helps six to nine-year-olds acquire the academic skills they need to achieve their full potential. Prankster Planet is at the heart of the show's transmedia approach.
At the end of each episode, Marcus and Jessica will go on an adventure to try and stop tricky prankster Francine from causing chaos. But the story doesn't end once the show is over. Kids are encouraged to go online to the new Prankster Planet website where they can play games that help them learn simple math equations, graphing, and data collection, representation and analysis.
Since the introduction of Prankster Planet 1.0 last season, millions of kids have visited the show's website to have fun, interactive adventures, all the while building up their math and literacy skills. The show has won three Emmy's for Outstanding Children's Series in a row – every year since it was revived – and was also a recipient of the Parent's Choice Gold Award for Television.

The project is being developed by JAPB LLC of North Little Rock. Former highway commissioner John Burkhalter, who's also running for lieutenant governor, is the managing partner of JAPB.
Little Rock officials have approved plans for a mixed-used development in downtown Little Rock that would include a marina and boat ramp on the Arkansas River.
The Little Rock Board of Directors has approved a zoning change to allow construction of the Rock City Marina and Yacht Club at East Second and Bond streets downtown, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reported Monday (http://bit.ly/1i1f21z ).
The project is being developed by JAPB LLC of North Little Rock. Former highway commissioner John Burkhalter, who's also running for lieutenant governor, is the managing partner of JAPB.
"I think the city has confidence that Mr. Burkhalter has the means, passion and vision to make this happen," Assistant City Manager Bryan Day said. "He's already applied for and been awarded an Arkansas Game and Fish Commission grant for about $1 million. He's done his due diligence and acquired the property and pulled the funding together."
Plans submitted to the city call for 192 apartments, a clubhouse, two marinas with about 425 boat slips and a floating restaurant and market. Burkhalter said groundbreaking on the major phase of construction will likely happen within a year.
"The vision I have for this project is one that people are excited about because of the positive impact that it will have on our city and our economy," Burkhalter said in an email. "A public/private partnership of this magnitude does not happen overnight, but with continued determination and commitment we are going to see this through and make sure we are doing everything right."
Currently, if someone wants to launch a boat into the Arkansas River near downtown, the closest options are at Murray Park off Rebsamen Road or across the river in North Little Rock, Day told the newspaper.
According to documents from the Army Corps of Engineers, the design also includes a mitigation project to replace habitat and floodwater storage after a small island is removed and create a no-wake zone where boats would be required to travel at idling speed.
Laurie Driver, spokeswoman for the Little Rock office of the Corps of Engineers, said several other plans had been discussed for the property, but JAPB was the first developer to ask for the appropriate permits from the Corps.

Campground Rentals Slower for Bristol Races
March 8, 2011 by RVBusiness · Comments Off on Campground Rentals Slower for Bristol Races
The few campers and RVs at campgrounds around Bristol Motor Speedway (BMS) in Tennessee in preparation for the spring races might be among a smaller crowd, according to several campground owners who say their reservation rates are down from this time last year.
"It's going very slow," said Hilltop Camping owner Mickey Baker of reservations this month. "I look to be down over last year."
He said he's probably got about 30% fewer reservations for the March 20 race than he had last spring, and those numbers were down from the year before, the Bristol Herald Courier reported.
"I'm a good 30% to 40% down from two years ago," he said. "I did well in the fall, but spring wasn't good."
Part of the problem, he said, is the economy, while the weather is another factor.
"Bristol in the spring is kind of notorious for last-minute decisions," Baker said. "People kind of wait to see what the week's forecast looks like. We've had some really cold, really windy, really rainy races in the spring."
He said he has five spaces around his office building with electric hookups, and he usually has three or four of those spots reserved for the spring race.
This year, he said, "it's about nil."
The guests he does have lined up are returning race fans, he said.
"Probably of the reservations I do have, 60% to 75% is return crowd," he said. "I guess that's where it pays to have some long-term relationships — it helps pay the bills."
Baker said he lost money during last spring's race, and to prevent that this year, he's ordered fewer amenities like portable toilets.
"I'm preparing ahead," he said.
He said his observation of last year's stands during the spring races is that they weren't full.
"I'm not even sure where the track is with tickets," he said.
Ticket sales for the spring BMS races are "up in some areas, down in some others," according to Kevin Triplett, vice president of public affairs at BMS.
But Triplett said it's too early to speculate on whether BMS will sell out.
"We're selling far better than most racetracks are (on the NASCAR circuit), but that's not the way we gauge ourselves," he said. "We've always set our standards very, very high. And by those standards, we're not yet where we want to be."
In addition to the timing of the race, Baker said he thinks Bristol's format may have pushed some people away.
"People find Bristol boring now," he said. "They miss the bump and run. People come to see the wrecks, and they get kind of bored when (the race) is so long."
Another idea for the lack of reservations this spring is that people aren't as interested in the new NASCAR drivers.
"A lot of the old drivers are retiring, and a lot of your old diehard race fans can't connect with the new drivers," said Eddie Honeycutt, owner of Bristol Race Rentals.
His business is receiving fewer rental requests this season as well.
"We're not doing as well as last year," he said.
Stan Lady, owner of Lady's Equipment Camping and Parking just a few miles down the road, said spring reservations at his campsites are pretty slim this year, too.
Usually, he said he has between 30 and 40 reservations for the sites by his house, and between 60 and 70 for the sites at the office. There are about 130 total sites at the office, he said.
"We probably have five at the house and 30 at the office now," he said.
He said reservations are typically a little slow in the spring, and he expects to get some more in the week before the race.
Lady's theory is that the weather affects race attendance in the spring.
"If they would move that race up, it would really help them," he said.

A look at Brent Albertson who will run track at Princeton University next year
How does a kid from Graymont get to attend an Ivy League school? In the case of Brent Albertson, hard work on the track and in the classroom.
Getting a Division I scholarship is a big thing but Albertson did not receive one for athletics because Ivy League schools do not offer them.
However, the Flanagan-Cornell senior will be attending Princeton University with financial aid because of his athletic — as well as academic — prowess.
"Princeton has the number one financial aid (package) in the nation for any college," Albertson said in an interview Friday. "It's completely different from here, it's older."
Albertson, the son of Kurt and Kim Albertson of Graymont, signed a national letter of intent to attend Princeton last month. He is the best sprinter from Livingston County since Tri-Point's Kyle Austin placed second and third at state eight years ago.
Albertson, who also runs for the Heart of Illinois Titans track club out of Bloomington, also has an older sister, Dana, and a younger brother, Brian.
"The camaraderie that Princeton has is another step up that I think he's going to enjoy," Flanagan-Cornell track coach Eric Sligel said.
The recruiting process is rather unique but becoming more the norm thanks to the Internet.
Using NCSA as his recruiting tool, Albertson was able to get seen by Fred Samara, the head men's track coach at Princeton.
"They have a profile of me on there and that got a lot of exposure," Albertson said of the recruiting website. "That's the only way a lot of colleges will ever see you. I had a video on there and they saw me running."
Samara, who was 15th overall in the decathlon at the 1976 Olympics and second American, contacted Albertson, who then made a visit to the campus.
"The facilities are great. It's kind of like the Pontiac Rec Center with the basketball courts and the track, but it goes down like six floors underneath the ground," Albertson said. "Their outdoor track was designed by the coach. He's actually a sprint specialist, too. He's great with the starts, which is my weakest part."
Samara has guided the Tigers to quite a bit of success. There were 18 former or current Princeton athletes who competed at the London Games last summer for many different countries. Their collective medal count was higher than athletes who came from the Big Ten Conference.
"The team is extremely competitive. They own all kinds of Ivy League titles," Albertson said.
He finished fifth at state last year in the 100-meter dash with a time of 10.83 seconds. His best at Charleston was 10.75 in the preliminaries.
Albertson said he is looking at winning the 100-meter dash, as well as the 200. His all-time best time in the 100 is 10.46 seconds. He ran a 21.47 seconds in the 200.
"The competition level is going to be wonderful, not just to compete with but just to see everyone running and what I'll be exposed to," he said of being an athlete at Princeton. Albertson appears to be excited about going as his eyes twinkled when talking about taking that step to a higher level.
Getting to run at the prestigious school is not the only impressive thing about Albertson. His 3.97 grade point average and 29 ACT score would get him into most schools. He said it took a little more to get into Princeton.
"Their average there is 34-35, so I'm very low," Albertson said. "But Coach Samara gave a great letter of recommendation.
"They don't just accept you because you have a perfect score on your ACT, they have thousands of those apply every year. You have to have something unique about you. If you're just a brain, they won't accept you. Typically, you have to participate in at least one or two extra-curricular activities."
Albertson's field of study is really undetermined although he has a focus in mind, which is molecular biology.
"They encourage going in undecided because of exposure to (general education) courses the first two years," Albertson said. "By the end of that they want you to make your decision."
Another thing about Princeton, Albertson said, was what the professors are expected to do.
"They're the only Ivy League institution that focuses on undergrad, so all the professors do teach undergrad classes," he said.
"All around, it's a great choice. Athletically they're great but academically, it is an Ivy League institution. I'm going to get a great education," Albertson added.
Another factor that had to favor Albertson is his ability to provide leadership to his current team through example as well as mentoring.
"He's willing to do whatever he needs to do to improve himself," Sligel said. "He took it upon himself to go the extra mile beyond our practices and do the things he needed to do to go Division I.
"It's nice to have another person, a captain, who knows what he's talking about and can help the other guys. He's definitely a leader."
The unfortunate thing for Livingston County track and field enthusiasts is not being able to see Albertson run near home. He was nursing a tweaked thigh and did not run at the Prairie Central Invitational, and the weather won out for the County meet Thursday.
Flanagan-Cornell will be competing at the Bureau Valley Sectional meet May 17. From there Albertson will be looking to garner state hardware at Eastern Illinois University.
After that, it's off to Princeton University.

Are you staying the course in stocks, or getting out?
After three weeks of dramatic stock market swings, and no big solutions to the Europe or U.S. debt issues in sight, a number of investors in or near retirement and financial planners we interviewed for a story in The Wall Street Journal Friday titled "Last Straw or Time to Buy?" are paring back their exposure to equities.
Laurence Montello, a certified financial planner in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., was advising his retired clients last week to move 20% of their stock portfolios to cash and 10% into Treasuries, for example.
Early last week, Christopher Parr, a certified financial planner in Columbia, Md., reduced equity allocations in his model portfolio for retirees by 7% to 38%, raised cash by 5% to 15% and increased allocations to "other assets," including commodities and precious metals, by 2% to 17% of the total portfolio. (He left bonds at 30%.)
"I am concerned that the market already priced in more Fed stimulus from decisions to be made during the upcoming Jackson Hole conference," Mr. Parr says. If necessary, he could pare the investments in equities and add inverse-short funds, though "I don't like to do that, because you're going to miss the upside," he says.
Mark Cortazzo, a certified financial planner in Parsippany, N.J., says he's trying to reduce "concentrated risks" in the portfolios of clients who are nearing retirement, whether it's one stock, one industry or one asset class, and diversify investments to include managed futures and bonds along with equities.
On Thursday, he advised a client with about 40,000 shares of Oracle Corp., on a way to hedge his concentrated position: The stock has been trading around $25 a share, and the owner wants to sell his holdings when they hit $27. So, Mr. Cortazzo suggested selling what's called a "covered call" against the stock at $27 for 10,000 shares.
That way, the shareholder makes $2 a share now, or $20,000. If the stock has risen to at least $27 when the covered call expires on Dec. 17, the client gets $27 a share. If it has fallen in value, he keeps the stock, along with the $2 premium for selling the call.
"You're giving up some upside, but if you're comfortable with selling at that price anyway, this is a way of making some extra, on top of what you were willing to take, and hedging your downside risk," Mr. Cortazzo says.
Evensky & Katz in Coral Gables, Fla., did not make changes Thursday, but its investment committee "is evaluating a potential shift in our exposure to Europe" and considering what to do with some "tactical satellite funds" that it may use to buy a depressed asset class as a result of recent declines, says Chief Investment Officer Lane Jones. The firm also is preparing to sell some bonds and buy stocks in order to realign clients' portfolios with their target investment policy, he says.
For investors who are panicking, T. Rowe Price Group Inc. suggests putting a process in place for liquidating small portions of your portfolio gradually – such as liquidating 10% today, and then later, maybe in a week or a month, liquidating another 10%, until you "regain your emotional equilibrium," says Christine Fahlund, a senior financial planner at the Baltimore firm.
Are you finally getting out of stocks? Or letting them ride?

email@example.com?LITCHFIELD � Monday night�s Litchfield Community School Board meeting was filled with discussions about the exciting, positive things that are going on at the school system.?
Superintendent Ann Riddle said there are a lot of positive things going inside the walls of the school.?
One of those is the transformation of the school�s library, which is receiving a major overhaul.?
�We want to make it a hub for the district to be used by teachers, students and the community,� she said.?
She said currently the library is utilized on a regular basis by those students in kindergarten through fifth grade. She is hoping that with the remodel more classes and students in junior high and high school will use it.?
�We want it to be more of a media center in light of how you would describe a media center today,� Riddle said.?
Work on the media center will continue throughout the summer and the remodel will feature more technology for the students to use.?
Riddle was also excited about the curriculum changes and teaching method changes that are taking place.??A committee made up of teachers, an intervention specialist from Michigan State University and the Hillsdale County ISD has been formed.?
�The plan is amazing; I think it will make a huge difference in the academic achievement of our students,��Riddle said. �This is something that all schools need to do."?
With the change teachers have begun to dive deeper into tests scores of students, to find the needs of each student on an individual level. The change will come in the curriculum, delivery and implementation of the plan.
The information gathered from the different assessments students take throughout the year will be used to help make a plan for each individual student. The students just finished a math and English pretest from the common core curriculum. The results will give the staff a starting point with each student.?
Riddle said it has been exciting to watch the transformation of the teaching styles of her staff.?
�I think it has brought teaching to a more professional level,� she said. �They are futuristic and are teaching with a purpose.?
�I am very proud of our staff. I have emerging leaders who are helping each other," she added.�?
The school is also part of a pilot program part of the Smarter Balance Assessment Consortium. Sophomores and juniors are taking the testing online. It is aligned�with the common core standards.
�The board also approved the hiring of Alex McKee as head track coach.
