Eleones Early Harvest Extra Virgin Olive Oil - 375ml
The fruit is known as Green Olive of Halkidiki and is one of the most recognized olives in many countries because of its large size. The trees selected for the creation of the Eleones Early Harvest are only the best and healthiest from the selected groves. The olives used must be unripe green and still on the tree. Olives that have fallen to the ground are not used. The harvest takes place in mid September each year and lasts for a couple of weeks. The olives are collected exclusively by hand so as not to injure the olives during harvesting and certainly not by beating the tree with poles as is common elsewhere. This collection technique may be a time consuming process, but it is the only way to ensure the highest quality product.
After harvest the olives are placed into special crates designed to prevent damage to the olives. Then the leaves and debris are immediately removed so there is nothing in each crate except the olives. The olives are taken to the mill for pressing on the day of harvest. After the pressing is completed the extracted olive oil is stored in special stainless steel tanks till it is bottled, ensuring that the flavor is not affected in any way by the container. When the day comes that the Eleones Early Harvest is to be bottled, the oil is filtered one last time to remove any natural sediment that occurs during the product�s settling period in the tank. The bottling process of Eleones Early Harvest is completed under very stringent quality control at all stages of the process according to international standards.

I think we have great campus safety. we see them everyday, all the time and they know us all by name. we know them so well that we have casual conversation with them. they keep us safe and even come down when we get locked out of our room.
What to do for fun
we have many events for students to have fun together. just recently we had a murder mystery dinner, which I admit was fun. soon we will have a video game night which will be fun. we have bashes that the school plan for us. It's where we all come to together to dance and create fun memories.
Food and Dining
the food here is better than most colleges. we have good food in our dinning hall and it is buffet style. we also have something which we call the college inn which is another option for food. I must admit, while there are some healthy options, the food there is kind of like our version of fast food. the food there is so good though.
Dorm Life
for dorm life I think it's all about the dorm you live in. if you live in the emery dorm, your room looks like a hotel room. it looks like that is because it used to be hotel rooms. if you live in oak or hickory, your room doesn't look like a hotel room but the room is still nice. all dorms have a bathroom so there is no community showers, which is a major plus.
Academic Rigor
sometimes I wish the classes would be like other schools but I think it makes us different. At this school, the teachers make sure you are successful. if you are not a lazy person you will do great.
Tips for prospective students
I encourage you to visit the school because if you love beautiful scenery this is the place to be. the lake s right on campus and you see beautiful trees everywhere.
In three sentences
George Williams college is a great school. we are like a family here. if you don't want to be just a number at a big school, this is the place for you.

Campus security patrols campus 24/7 ensuring maximum safety.
Clubs and Activities
Wide range of activities and clubs are available to students. These range from sailing, equestrian, choir, fishing, and computers. The lake is available for students who want to canoe and fish. Also available for use is a large walking path around the lake and an enclosed indoor outdoor basketball court.
Great for these types of students
Students who like a small campus or prefer individual attention. Are attending school for the education rather than parties. Sudents who are individuals looking for a way to set themselves a part from the rest.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
Located right next to the GWC campus is an old observatory. Unlike many other old observatories, this one has been visited by someone very famous. None other than Albert Einstein. THis observatory is only one of two places that Einstein visited during his trip to the United States.
Bang for the buck
Top notch education, great scholarships, and low cost! What more could you ask for?
What to do for fun
George Williams College is a college that is forever evolving and adding new experiences. Clubs range from choir and fishing to computers and sailing. However, if you have an Idea to start a new club GWC wants to hear about it! Tell them what your interested in and they will strive to incorporate it.
Food and Dining
Since George Williams Campus is so small the ability to have home cooked meals three times a day actually happens. Vegetables and Fruits are grown on the garden located on campus. Every meal is destined to be a tasty treat and could leave you wondering if you just ate at a five star restaurant.
Dorm Life
GWC has many options to chose from when it comes to dorm life. Whether you choose to live by yourself or with one or two other roommates. The rooms are spacious and freshly completed. WIth each room containing its own bathroom, air-conditioning, and lake side view who could argue with this humble abode?
Academic Rigor
GWC has an integrative way of teaching. Unlike most classrooms where you sit through lectures with a hundred other students, GWC allows you to experience your learning through hands on procedures. Professors show you how to apply the information instead of expecting you to figure it out. At GWC innovation is a tool that you are taught to incorporate.
Tips for prospective students
Students should know what type of school they are looking for. George Williams College is a school for the dedicated and driven, not people who are going for the partying atmosphere. At George Williams College an expected student teacher ration is 10:1. When attending your first visit engage yourself and ask questions. Type up your questions on a sheet of paper if your afraid you will forget. Smile, GWC is a friendly campus that wants to help you succeed.
In three sentences
George Williams college is a college that stands out from the pack. Due to its small size everyone is on a first name basis. The care put into the school and lakeside view shows just how dedicated students are to their school and education.

This doubles as a bug report, I think, but after trying to get whatever they give you for killing them both for a few hours I'm just really curious as to what I'm going through all this trouble to get. So firstly, I was wondering about that.
Secondly, I did manage to kill both of them just now with no reward. I used Weytwut to put Yin and Yang right by each other, killed one with fire, absorbed it's blood pool with blood mage and stood in its spot while I killed the other. Got a "One alive: false" message... and then nothing happened. I noticed a gold necklace at the bottom of the screen after I finished exploring but that seems like a pretty lackluster reward for all the trouble it takes to accomplish this.
On one final random side note, haven't found Dracul yet. Where does he like to hide?

LONDON (AP) — U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry backed away Friday from his candid comments that seemed to signal American support for the Egyptian military coup and the ouster of President Mohammed Morsi.
The U.S. has tried hard not to appear as if it is taking sides in the crisis. But when Kerry said Thursday in Pakistan that the Egyptian military was "'restoring democracy" in leading the July 3 coup, it left the impression that the U.S. backed the military action. Kerry moved quickly to defuse the flap, saying on Friday that all parties — the military as well as pro-Morsi demonstrators — needed to work toward a peaceful and "'inclusive" political resolution of the crisis.
His backpedaling came after his comments were denounced by Morsi's Muslim Brotherhood, which insists that the democratically elected Morsi is the legitimate leader of Egypt.
"Does Secretary Kerry accept Defense Secretary (Chuck) Hagel to step in and remove (U.S. President Barack) Obama if large protests take place in America?" a spokesman of Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood, Gehad el-Haddad, asked.
The flap over Kerry's remarks came at a bad time. Just as Kerry was in London trying to clarify his statement from the day before, Deputy Secretary of State William Burns was landing in Cairo to urge Egyptian leaders to avoid violence and help facilitate a political exit strategy to end the stalemate that has paralyzed Egypt and deeply divided the country.
It is unclear if Burns will meet Morsi, who has been kept out of sight since being overthrown on July 3. The military has established a civilian government and called elections for next year, but pro-Morsi protesters say they won't break up their massive street demonstrations until he is returned to power. More than 130 Morsi supporters have been killed and hundreds of others have been injured since the military coup. Last Saturday, an estimated 80 protesters, mostly Morsi supporters, were killed in clashes with security forces in one of the worst single crackdowns on a protest in Egypt's nearly three years of turbulence.
"The last thing that we want is more violence," Kerry said before meeting in London with the foreign minister of the United Arab Emirates. "The temporary government has a responsibility with respect to demonstrators to give them the space to be able to demonstrate in peace. But at the same time, the demonstrators have a responsibility not to stop everything from proceeding in Egypt."
In his interview with Geo TV in Pakistan TV, Kerry said, "The military was asked to intervene by millions and millions of people, all of whom were afraid of a descendance into chaos, into violence," Kerry told the Pakistani television channel. "And the military did not take over, to the best of our judgment so, so far. To run the country, there's a civilian government. In effect, they were restoring democracy."
"By killing people on the roads?" the TV correspondent asked Kerry.
"Oh, no. That's not restoring democracy, and we're very, very concerned about, very concerned about that," Kerry said. "I've been in touch with all of the players there. And we have made it clear that that is absolutely unacceptable, it cannot happen."
State Department officials said Kerry's remarks about violence being "absolutely unacceptable" were an indication that the secretary was not favoring either side in the conflict, which Obama administration has painstakingly avoided calling a coup.
The Obama administration told lawmakers that it won't declare either way whether Egypt's government overthrow was a coup. Making a legal determination that the Egyptian army had ousted Morsi in a coup would have triggered a suspension in the $1.3 billion in military aid the U.S. provides each year. Conversely, a determination that a coup had not occurred would have flown in the face of the uncontested facts that the army removed Morsi from power and has detained him incommunicado in an undisclosed location for weeks.
Kerry also said that the U.S. was working with EU Foreign Minister Catherine Ashton and foreign ministers of other countries to try to find a way to help resolve the Egyptian crisis peacefully.
"The story of Egypt is not finished yet, so we have to see how it unfolds in the next days," Kerry said.

Buildings that will NOT be affected by the shutdown are: Housing, King Library, Recreation Center, Student Union, Spartan Complex, and certain "special needs" areas.
The Holiday shutdown schedule is as follows:
Day of Week December #, YYYY
Day of Week January #, YYYY
All main campus buildings will have limited lighting, heating or cooling during this time (emergency systems will not be affected). All UCAT and online services will function normally during the winter break shutdown.
Tuesday, January 5, 2009
At 7:00 a.m., the entire campus will be operating normally with heating and lighting.
Please contact Name, extension 4-#### or at email_address if you have any questions or concerns about the shutdown. Thank you for your patience and cooperation.
NOTE: Facilities, Development and Operations will be arranging limited HVAC and lighting for requested "after hours" operations.

Summaries of EU Legislation
Summaries of EU legislation: direct access to the main summaries page.
European Competition Network (ECN)
The Commission and the competition authorities in the European Union (EU) countries, operating within the European Competition Network (ECN), are urged to cooperate in a close and complementary manner in ensuring effective application of the competition rules within the European Union.
Commission Notice on cooperation within the Network of Competition Authorities [Official Journal C 101 of 27.4.2004].
Regulation (EC) No 1/2003 of 16 December 2002 on the implementation of the rules of competition laid down in Articles 81 and 82 of the Treaty creates a system of parallel competences in which the Commission and the European Union (EU) countries' competition authorities can apply those articles. Together, the national competition authorities and the Commission form a network of public authorities that act in the public interest and cooperate closely in order to protect competition. The network is called the "European Competition Network" (ECN).
The structure of the national competition authorities varies between EU countries. In some of them, one body investigates cases and takes all types of decisions. In others, the functions are divided between two bodies, one is in charge of the investigation of the case and the other, often a collegial body, is responsible for deciding the case. Lastly, in a number of EU countries, prohibition decisions and/or decisions imposing a fine can be taken only by a court. Subject to the general principle of effectiveness, Article 35 of the Regulation allows EU countries to choose the body or bodies that will be designated as national competition authorities and to allocate functions between them.
Allocation of competences: one or more national competition authorities or the Commission
Cases may be handled by one or more national competition authorities acting in parallel or by the Commission.
In most cases, the authority receiving a complaint or starting an ex officio procedure will remain in charge of the case. An authority is regarded as being well placed to act where there is a material link between the infringement and the territory of the EU country on which the authority depends in order for it to effectively bring the entire infringement to an end. Re-allocation of a case would be envisaged only at the outset of the procedure where either the authority concerned considered that it was not well placed to act or where other authorities also considered themselves well placed to act. In addition, even if several authorities can be considered to be well placed to act, the action of a single authority is sometimes appropriate in that it is sufficient to bring the entire infringement to an end.
Parallel action by two or three national competition authorities may be appropriate where an agreement or practice has substantial effects on competition mainly in their respective territories and where the action of only one authority would not be sufficient to bring the entire infringement to an end and/or to sanction it adequately. The authorities dealing with a complaint as part of a parallel action will endeavour to coordinate their action to the extent possible.
By contrast, the Commission is particularly well placed if one or more agreements or practices affect competition in more than three EU countries. It is also particularly well placed to deal with a case if the case is closely linked to other Community provisions which may be exclusively or more effectively applied by the Commission or if the Community interest requires the adoption of a Commission decision to develop Community competition policy when a new competition issue arises or to ensure effective enforcement.
At any event, re-allocation should be a quick and efficient process and should not hold up ongoing investigations. In this connection, the Regulation proposes a series of cooperation mechanisms for case allocation:
- Information at the beginning of the procedure: Article 11(3) of the Regulation stipulates that the competition authorities of the EU countries must, when acting under Article 81 or 82 of the Treaty, inform the Commission in writing before or without delay after commencing the first formal investigative measure. It also states that this information may be made available to the other competition authorities. This machinery allows the network to detect multiple procedures and address possible case re-allocation issues as soon as an authority starts investigating a case.
- Suspension or termination of proceedings: If the same agreement or practice is brought before several competition authorities, Article 13 of the Regulation provides a legal basis for suspending proceedings or rejecting a complaint on the grounds that another authority is dealing with the case or has dealt with it. Article 13 can also be applied to part of a complaint or to part of the proceedings in a case, with the rest of the complaint being dealt with in an appropriate manner. The Commission may similarly reject a complaint for lack of Community interest or other reasons pertaining to the nature of the complaint.
A key element of the functioning of the network is the power of all the competition authorities to exchange and use information that has been collected by them for the purpose of applying Article 81 or 82 of the Treaty. Article 12 of the Regulation states that the exchange of information may take place not only between a national competition authority and the Commission but also between national competition authorities.
Initiation of proceedings
When the competition authorities in EU countries initiate proceedings, they must inform the Commission not later than thirty days before the adoption of a decision implementing Article 81 or 82 of the Treaty and requiring that an infringement be brought to an end (Article 11(4)); they may also make this information available to the other members of the network. By contrast, where it is for the Commission to initiate proceedings under Article 11(6), it will relieve the competition authorities of the EU countries of their competence to apply Articles 81 and 82 of the Treaty. The initiation of proceedings is a formal act that can occur at any stage of the investigation of the case by the Commission.
Two situations can arise: firstly, where the Commission is the first competition authority to initiate proceedings in a case for the adoption of a decision under the Regulation, national competition authorities may no longer deal with the case; secondly, where one or more national competition authorities have informed the network pursuant to Article 11(3) of the Regulation that they are dealing with a given case. During the initial allocation period (indicative period of two months) the Commission can initiate proceedings with the effects of Article 11(6) of the Regulation after consulting the authorities concerned.
After the allocation phase, the Commission will, in principle, apply Article 11(6) only if one of the following situations arises:
- network members envisage conflicting decisions in the same case;
- network members envisage a decision which is obviously in conflict with consolidated case law;
- one or more members are unduly drawing out proceedings in the case;
- there is a need to adopt a Commission decision to develop Community competition policy, in particular when a similar competition issue arises in several EU countries or to ensure effective enforcement;
- the national competition authority or authorities concerned do not object.
If a national competition authority is already dealing with a case, the Commission will explain the reasons for applying Article 11(6) in writing to the national competition authority concerned and to the other members of the network. The Commission will announce to the network its intention of applying Aricle 11(6) in due time so that network members will have the possibility of asking for a meeting of the Advisory Committee. The Advisory Committee is the forum where experts from the various competition authorities discuss individual cases and general issues of Community competition law. It is consulted at the request of the Commission or an EU country.
In order to ensure maximum cooperation, the members of the network inform one another and, where necessary, discuss decisions rejecting complaints, decisions closing an ex officio procedure or decisions ordering interim measures. Such mutual collaboration also concerns the power of investigation. Under Article 22(2) of the Regulation, the Commission may request a national competition authority to carry out an inspection on its own behalf and for its own account.
Position of applicants claiming the benefit of a leniency programme
The Commission considers that it is in the Community interest to grant favourable treatment to undertakings which cooperate with it in the investigation of cartel infringements. In the absence of an EU-wide system of fully harmonised leniency programmes, it is in the interest of the applicant to apply for leniency to all competition authorities which can be regarded as being well placed to act against the infringement in question. Where a national competition authority deals with a case that has been initiated as a result of a leniency application, it must inform the Commission and may make the information available to other members of the network pursuant to Article 11(3) of the Regulation. Except in a number of specific cases, information voluntarily submitted by a leniency applicant will be transmitted to another member of the network pursuant to Article 12 of the Regulation only with the consent of the applicant.
This notice replaces the Commission notice of 15 October 1997 on cooperation between national competition authorities and the Commission in handling cases falling within the scope of Articles 81 and 82 of the Treaty.

Can Bradley Cooper Save Jane Got a Gun?
He's signed on to replace Jude Law.
It seems jinxed indie Western Jane Got a Gun will continue to exist, now that Bradley Cooper has been brought on to replace Jude Law (who replaced Michael Fassbender) as the film's villain. With new director Gavin O'Connor at the helm and principals Natalie Portman and Joel Edgerton in place (for now), the sinking ship that is producer Scott Steindorff's first project with Scott Pictures may have found itself a lifeboat in Cooper. His star power is especially important to international investors who, according to Variety, "began to worry that they had been sold a film with Fassbender as the male lead, not Edgerton." Did Zero Dark Thirty mean nothing to them?

Bangladeshi factory fire kills 137
Fire sweeps through a clothing factory outside Dhaka
DHAKA, Bangladesh | November 25, 2012
At least 137 people were believed to be dead after fire swept through a clothing factory outside Dhaka, Bangladeshi officials said Sunday.
The Press Trust of India said officials had recovered 124 bodies from the Tazrin Fashion factory in Ashulia Savar, about 18 miles outside the capital city. The fire started Saturday night and quickly moved through the lower floors of the building.
Abu Naim Mohammad Shahidullah, director general of fire service and civil defense, told reporters an electrical short circuit may have been to blame for the fire, though an investigation would be conducted to determine the cause.
The fire left scores of workers trapped on the upper floors while rescue crews contended with difficult access to the area, officials said.
"The main difficulty was to put out the fire; the sufficient approach road was not there," Salim Nawaj Bhuiyan, a retired fire official who now runs a fire safety company in Dhaka, told The New York Times. "The fire service had to take great trouble to approach the factory."
The army was also on the scene. Troops were seen in television footage carrying out bodies of the victims while a crowd of hundreds of onlookers watched, the Press Trust of India said.
The Times said Bangladesh's thriving garment industry has been experiencing growing tensions between factory owners and workers who are among the lowest paid in the world. A union organizer was tortured and killed earlier this year by unknown culprits who dumped his body outside Dhaka.

Hi all.
So, I just wanted to know what your favourite television shows are and why you like them?
Here's my list;
*Dukes of Hazzard - I'm a huge "General Lee" fan and because of how it always got the Dukes out of trouble, no matter what.
*London's Burning - In my mind, it's the most realistic portrayal of firefighters on the television ever.
*The Bill - the same as above, except that it is a hard-hitting and gritty police drama series.

'Real' Christmas trees still available for purchase
The tradition of seeking the perfect 'real' Christmas tree is not lost in this age of high tech, pre-lit, artificial trees. In fact, real Christmas tree vendors, say that "business is good." The reasons consumers have for purchasing a real Christmas tree include upholding family traditions and environmental factors, but most say it's for that "fresh pine smell of Christmas."
Jen Ashcraft of Goshen said, "I've had a real Christmas tree for as long as I can remember. Growing up we would go to Island Park and pick out a tree every year. Now we get a real tree at Stop n Shop in Firth every year."
Dennis Parker of Blackfoot said it is a family to tradition to go to Island Park the week after Thanksgiving and cut down a Christmas tree.
Ed Stacey who has run Santa's Forest across from Les Schwab in Blackfoot for the past three seasons, said tree sales are good this year. "I have already sold 20 more trees this year, than I did last year at this time," he said.
Stacey said his trees come from a Christmas tree farm in Oregon and that they are not cut until after Thanksgiving to ensure that his customers get a 'fresh tree.'
Kelly Kesler, owner of Kesler's Market in Blackfoot, has sold fresh trees from Sandpoint through the years. He has found the task of selling Christmas trees to to be a bit easier than in years past, now that he has a greenhouse at the store to maintain humidity and keep the trees nice and fresh.
"I have a lot of loyal Christmas tree customers that come here every year," Kesler said. "I have people who may not have had a fresh tree for awhile, but their kids are coming for the holidays and they want to have a real, traditional tree."
Ed Spencer, a retired banker currently living in Rigby, has provided fresh Christmas trees to Stop n Shop on Main Street in Firth for 30 years. He and his son, Dan, personally travel to Montana after Thanksgiving where they handpick the trees, chop them down and deliver them fresh to vendors in Idaho and Utah.
"Stop n Shop has been my oldest and best customer," Spencer stated. "I bring them about 140 trees and they will usually sell out."
Spencer said he is passionate about his family-owned Christmas tree business and that his son shares the same passion to continue the business for many years to come.
A real Christmas tree from vendors around east Idaho, costs between $25 and $80. For those who enjoy going to the forest and chopping down their own Christmas tree, tree permits can be purchased from the Forest Service for $10.

Opioid use in fibromyalgia is associated with negative health related measures in a prospective cohort study.
– Source: Pain Research and Treatment, Epub March 18, 2013
By Mary-Ann Fitzcharles, et al.
As pain is the cardinal symptom of fibromyalgia (FM), strategies directed towards pain relief are an integral component of treatment. Opioid medications comprise a category of pharmacologic treatments which have impact on pain in various conditions with best evidence for acute pain relief. Although opioid therapy other than tramadol has never been formally tested for treatment of pain in FM, these agents are commonly used by patients.
We have examined the effect of opioid treatments in patients diagnosed with FM and followed longitudinally in a multidisciplinary pain center over a period of 2 years.
In this first study reporting on health related measures and opioid use in FM, opioid users had poorer symptoms and functional and occupational status compared to nonusers.
Although opioid users may originally have had more severe symptoms at the onset of disease, we have no evidence that these agents improved status beyond standard care and may even have contributed to a less favourable outcome. Only a formal study of opioid use in FM will clarify this issue, but until then physicians must be vigilant regarding the multiple adverse consequences of opioid therapy.
Source: Pain Research and Treatment, Epub March 18, 2013. By Mary-Ann Fitzcharles, Neda Faregh, Peter A. Ste-Marie and Yoram Shir. Division of Rheumatology, McGill University, Montreal, QC, Canada H3G 1A4 ; Alan Edwards Pain Management Unit, Montreal General Hospital, McGill University Health Centre, 1650 Cedar Avenue, Montreal, QC, Canada H3G 1A4.
Editor's Comment: In the full text of this study, the researchers noted, "Opioids are also perceived by patients to offer the best symptom relief according to an internet survey of persons with self-reported FM." Despite that perception, the FM patients who were taking strong opioids (all opioids other than tramadol and codeine) scored worse for symptom severity, functional impairment and occupational status over time. It should be noted, however, that the group taking opioids also scored worse in measures of disease severity at the beginning of the study.
The point seems to be that while all of the patients showed improvement over time regardless of the treatments they received, those receiving opioids did not show greater improvement and in some cases, had less improvement than patients using other standard treatments. Given the dangers and negative effects associated with chronic opioid use, the study authors advise physicians to be vigilant regarding the continued use of opioids to treat fibromyalgia until more formal clinical trials on opioid use for FM are conducted.

MEDIA CONTACTS: Kelly Layman, Executive Director of Communications, Board of Governors, State University System of Florida, (850) 245-0466, email@example.com
Lynn Riechmann, Office of Public Affairs, New College of Florida, 941-487-4155, firstname.lastname@example.com
Florida Board of Governors welcomes New College of Florida student Michael Long to higher education leadership panel
New College of Florida student is youngest to serve on Florida Board of Governors and youngest elected chair of Florida Student Association
TAMPA, Fla. — The Florida Board of Governors today welcomed New College of Florida student Michael Long at his first meeting – and as the youngest student representative ever to serve on the governing body for the State University System of Florida.
A native of Sarasota, the 19-year-old Long also is the youngest student elected as chairman of the Florida Student Association (FSA), which is one of the three positions on the Board of Governors assigned by certain roles amid the 17-member Board. He will be a fully voting Board member. His term is through May 2012.
"On behalf of my fellow Board members, we are delighted to have Michael Long join the Florida Board of Governors to represent the perspective of more than 320,000 students enrolled in our 11 public universities, and to represent what is in the best interests for the future of the State University System," said Chair Ava L. Parker, a Jacksonville attorney.
Long is studying environmental policy at New College of Florida. This past fall, as a freshman, Long was elected as New College Student Alliance co-president, the youngest student to do so since New College's founding in 1960. He also captains New College's sailing team and has led numerous team trips to the Florida Keys and Bahamas with his peers.
As FSA chairman, Long said he wants "to focus on encouraging more students across the state to participate in the legislative process and speak out on issues that would impact the students within State University System."
Long, a first-generation college student from his family, said he bears full financial responsibility for his education, having balanced two jobs with his rigorous studies at New College.
Long regularly volunteers with Florida's Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) and AMI Kids, a program dedicated to helping troubled youth develop into responsible and productive citizens. As someone who was once in his own share of trouble, Long said he is committed to sharing his success story if it can help turn a life around.
The State University System is comprised of 11 institutions with a total enrollment of more than 320,000 students, making it the fourth-largest public university system in the nation in terms of student enrollment (some states have more than one public university system). The Board of Governors' obligations and responsibilities include defining the distinctive mission of each institution as well as ensuring the well-planned coordination and operation of the System. The Board is comprised of 17 appointed members - 14 are appointed by the Governor while three are members by virtue of their designations (a faculty member, a Florida Student Association student representative, and the Florida Commissioner of Education). The Board of Governors appoints a Chancellor, currently Frank T. Brogan, who serves as the chief executive and administrative officer of the State University System.
New College of Florida is a national leader in the arts and sciences and is the State of Florida's designated honors college for the liberal arts. Consistently ranked among the top public liberal arts colleges in America by U.S. News & World Report, Forbes and The Princeton Review, New College attracts highly motivated, academically talented students from 40 states and 25 foreign countries. A higher proportion of New College students receive Fulbright Scholar awards than graduates from virtually all other colleges and universities.
The Florida Student Association (FSA) is comprised of the student body presidents of member institutions in the State University System of Florida. The FSA coordinates the collective efforts of each of the member student governments with a goal of providing unified student representation before the Florida government. The chairman of the Florida Student Association serves as the student representative on the Florida Board of Governors.

Newark (New Jersey)
Earth : North America : United States of America : Mid-Atlantic : New Jersey : Gateway (New Jersey) : Essex County (New Jersey) : Newark (New Jersey)
Newark [13] is New Jersey's largest city, located in the heart of the Metro New York region.
Although one of the great historic cities of the Northeast and the most culturally affluent city in the state, Newark is often overlooked in favor of Goliath-like Manhattan and towns along the Hudson River, such as Jersey City and Hoboken. While no longer the industrial powerhouse it once was, Newark remains one of the America's major shipping, rail, and air hubs, Public transportation is abundant, making it easy to get to, from, and around the city. Newark has been economically disadvantaged for some time, and suffers from a bad reputation, often informed by negative stereotyping. Thanks in large part to a nationally hig-profile mayor, committed populace, and changing attitudes towards once decaying urban areas, the often proclaimed, but stunted renaissance of the Newark is steadily and substantially taking hold.
The city is divided into five wards, each with it's own character.Downtown has retained much of early 20th century architecture and has an iconic skyline. Nearly 100,000 people commute to the central business district on workdays, making for a lively urban landscape. Since the millennium it has become more residential as former office buildings and warehouses, such as the art deco Eleven80 (at 1180 Raymond Blvd.), are converted to housing. A new performing arts complex and sports/concert venue and restaurants have encouraged visitors to linger longer into the night,
The North Ward is home to Branch Brook Park, site of the gothic Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart and the nation's largest collection of cherry blossom trees. Surrounding neighbourhoods include architecturally interesting suburban enclaves on the east and bustling urban districts on the west. The East Ward, or the ironbound, is home to a large Portugues/Brazilian community, with a "restaurant row" offering a cornucopia of eating establishments for every budget. The South Ward, once the heart of the Jewish community and home to the Weequahic Park and other architecturally gems, has fallen on hard times, and is were much of the city's crime is concentrated.
English is the main language. As the home to many immigrants, Newark is a polygot city. The Ironbound has significant Brazilian and Portuguese population.
Newark is pronounced Noo-wirk, as opposed to Newark, Delaware which is pronounced Noo-ark. Locals will often pronounce it "nork".
Get in
By plane
Train service is provided by via AirTrain Newark monorail between terminals and the Newark-Liberty train station served by NJ Transit and Amtrak. Local buses include the #62 bus to Newark Penn Station and the limites stop #28 through downtown to Newark Broad Street Station (NJ Transit).
Taxis charge a flat fee determined by destination. Super Shuttle, +1 973 961-2255, [15]. In the airport, shuttle or car will take you to your hotel or residence. Sample fare: airport to Manhattan Holiday Inn for $18. You do have to make reservations ahead of time.
Many airlines not serving Newark Airport fly into the New York metro area at JFK or La Guardia in Queens, New York.
By train
Newark Penn Station is located in the Gateway District just a few blocks from the heart of downtown Newark. It's a beautiful old McKim Mead & White building and worth visiting just on its own. It is served by Amtrak [16] and New Jersey Transit's Northeast Corridor, North Jersey Coast Line, and Raritan Valley Line, [17], with easy connections to New York, Philadelphia, Trenton, and points south and west. A PATH [18] train (the Red Line) connects Penn Station with Jersey City and the World Trade Centre. Connections to other PATH lines can be made to Hoboken, the West Village, Chelsea, and 33rd St. in Manhattan. When taking the train, realize that Newark and New York both have "Penn Stations". It is sometimes easy to mistake the conductor saying "New York" for "Newark" (and vice versa), so be aware so you don't accidentally get off at the wrong station.
Broad Street Station, located at the north end of downtown is served New Jersey Transit's Montclair-Boonton line, Morristown line and Gladstone Branch lines which serve the suburbs, Hoboken Terminal, and on Midtown Direct trains, New York Penn.
By car
Route 21 (McCarter Hwy) runs North-South along the railroad tracks a few blocks east of downtown. I-78 skirts the south edge of town and I-280 cuts across the north. Route 1/9 comes across the Pulaski Skyway from Jersey City and Manhattan (via the Holland Tunnel). Take the Raymond Blvd. exit and drive along the Passaic River into downtown.
By bus
Newark Penn Station is also the city's bus terminal and is served by NJ Transit buses, as well as Greyhound [19] and others. BoltBus [20] stops outside the station, offering service from Washington, D.C., Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Boston.
By boat
Port Liberty Cruise Terminal is located on Upper new York Bay in Bayonne.
Get around
New Jersey Transit operates an extensive bus system in the city and its suburbs. The Newark City Light Rail runs two lines, both originating at Penn Station. The City Subway Line (shown on maps as the blue line) has service to University Heights, Branch Brook Parkand neighboring Bloomfield The Broad Street Line (orange on maps) operates through downton between Penn Station and Broad Street Station.
Taxis in Newark are metered, but often a price can be negotiated. Downtown one can hail a cab, but elsewhere a phone call is needed.
Art Galleries
Newark is home to Prudentual Insutance and PSEG (in 2013 to Panasonic). and other corporations located downtown, as are the many federal and state courthouses. University Heights is home to Rutgers, NJIT, New Jersey Medical School. Port Newark and Newark Airport combine to make the city the largest transportation and distribution center on the East Coast. Light manufacturing survives
Newark is known for its Portuguese, Brazilian and Spanish food. There are quite a number of such restaurants, most of which are inexpensive to moderate in price.
There is a liquor store in Penn Station. You can buy individual bottles of beer (including microbrews).
While hotels serving Newark Airport can be inexpensive ($50+ booked online; $69 walk in). some require multiple transfers with hotel shuttle to airport & NJT#62 to Penn Station. Service is sporadic, so one can sometimes expect 1 to 2 hrs each way. Those hotels located on Route 1 & 9 South/Frontage Road have NJT#40 bus service which travel between the airport and Downtown/Newark Penn on an hourly basis.
The main newspaper of Newark is the Star Ledger [41]. New York metro newspapers are also widely available (Times, Daily News, Post).
Stay safe
While things are safer now than they were a few years ago, Newark can be unsafe if you are not careful.
Downtown Newark is crowded and safe during the day. However, It thins out at night and may seem creepy but as long as you stay in well lit open areas you should be fine. The Ironbound district is pretty bumpin' on nights and weekends and is probably the safest part of the city, after Downtown and Forest Hill. If you were to go to a concert at the NJPAC or see an event at the Prudential Center you should be fine. They are well lit areas with a police presence and are the safest part of the city. The South, Central, and North, South a Wards have heavier crime rates and it pays to be more guarded in those areas.
Although bustling during peak travel hours and almost completely safe in daylight, Newark Broad Street station (NJ Transit) can be very dangerous after hours and through the night when fewer people wait for trains (usually from 10pm-5am). Armed robberies are common and can occur even when you are not the only one waiting for a late train. If you do find yourself at the station after hours, wait in the lobby beneath the platform, or failing that, one of the lit waiting booths on the platform. Look confident, dignified, and do NOT display cell phones or iPods.
Remember, the best advice to be given about doing business in 'stickier' neighborhoods is just keep your wits about you. If caught in a confrontation, act confident, no matter how scared you might actually be. Afterwards, make yourself scarce, fast. Remember that money and material things can be replaced, while lives cannot. Newark's community has been known to have weapons. The city has a high-rates of shootings, but are mostly in outer neighbourhoods.
Get out
New York City is easily accessible by train and bus.
Liberty State Park, with ferries to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island are reached by taking PATH and Hudson- Bergen Light Rail in Jersey City.
Newark is in northern New Jersey, and like most places in the state, is only a short trip away from the Atlantic Ocean beaches. The closest beaches in terms of miles are those in Coney Island and Rockaway in New York, but the easier ones to get to are along the Jersey Shore, along New Jersey Transit North Jersey Coast Line. (Read more: http://www.livestrong.com/article/152989-beaches-near-newark-new-jersey/#ixzz29rcqpWRg)
Field Station; Dinosaurs [42], is theme park exhibition is within walking distance of Secaucus Junction, one stop from Newark Penn
Hitchhike Believe it or not, it is possible to hitchhike out of the New York Metro area. If you are trying to go long distances, your best bet is to take NJ Transit or Metro North far enough to put you well into the suburbs, preferably to a stop that puts you near (within walking distance of) a major highway such as an Interstate. From there, get to an on-ramp and put out your thumb. Be advised, however, that New Jersey state laws on hitchhiking are notoriously ambiguous, and you will be hassled by local police, so use common sense and discretion.
If you're trying to go west into Pennsylvania, your best bet is to take NJ transit to Mt. Olive, which is only a 5-min walk from I-80, which generally carries a good amount of long-distance traffic going west.

Electrolux plant shows shift in economic development strategies

Memphis Mayor A C Wharton Jr. called the Electrolux Memphis manufacturing plant a "monster plant" this week after a tour of the $266 million manufacturing center in Frank C. Pidgeon Industrial Park.
The tour, Tuesday, Jan. 15, led by Electrolux Major Appliances North America CEO Jack Truong, came before the first ovens and ranges roll off the line in May.
That's the second $116 million phase of a plant Truong repeatedly likened to an automobile plant in its economic impact as well as its approach to manufacturing.
For every one of the estimated 1,200 jobs in the plan, three to four are created for suppliers in the surrounding area, by Truong's math. The economic impact of suppliers has been part of the gospel of auto manufacturing since a new car line that came to be called Saturn was weighing incentive offers from a number of states in the early 1980s.
In the case of Electrolux, the plant has already meant a $60 million contract with Memphis-based Integrated Solutions for the assembly line construction beginning to take shape.
Truong said the plant allows Electrolux to "control our own destiny" and change what it does. There is precedent for that in the history of Memphis manufacturing with the Sharp Manufacturing plant's conversion in the last 10 years from making televisions to making solar panels.
"It's very important for us to standardize and modulize our processes so that we can have the flexibility to produce the innovative product not only for today but for tomorrow," Truong said of Electrolux.
The ovens and other cooking appliances to be made at Electrolux go through larger ovens that can reach a temperature of 1,600 degrees and even transfer that level of heat to other ovens for greater efficiency.
The reliability laboratory tests sample products from the assembly line at 380 stations that simulate different conditions. Those products picked for the lab are tested for 20 weeks to simulate a 10-year product life.
The assembly line can paint one oven blue and the next oven red depending on what is needed.
And the manufacturing process includes more chances to correct problems along the assembly line before the product reaches the end.
"It's important for us to manage and have vertical integration where we have the flexibility and ability to control the quality along the way," Truong said.
The Electrolux milestone reflected an interesting transition in economic development strategies.
It came the day after executives at one of the state's other economic plums announced they were laying off 300 workers.
The layoffs at the Hemlock Semiconductor plant in Clarksville, Tenn., are the result of an oversupply of the processed poly silicon the plant produces.
Hemlock was one of three plant construction projects touted during the administration of former Gov. Phil Bredesen during the global recession.
The day after the Electrolux tour, state economic development officials announced New Breed Logistics would expand its Memphis operation, creating nearly 500 jobs in a $23 million expansion.
The state incentives come with different terms than those offered by the Bredesen administration. Gov. Bill Haslam, in his first two years in office, has moved the state to "statutory incentives" that do not come with a contractual agreement.
Companies instead qualify for what are called "FastTrack" grants from the state.
Electrolux was at the tail end of the Bredesen administration. Bredesen and his economic development team pledged $97 million in the last year of his second term of office as the state's share of the project, the largest state commitment ever to an economic development project in Shelby County.
But it wasn't in the budget when Haslam took office in 2011 along with Republican majorities in the Tennessee House and Senate.
"We sort of received the wet baby when this thing was born," was how state Senate Republican leader Mark Norris of Collierville put it. "We did a lot on faith."
The local government incentives for the plant were $22 million in bond financing each from city and county governments as well as a 15-year tax break through a payment-in-lieu-of-taxes agreement. The Memphis City Council and Shelby County Commission questioned all extensively before they approved them.
And members of both bodies were critical of Wharton in particular for agreements that included no specific percentages for minority business participation or local hiring. There were suggested goals and commitments. But the deal included no requirements.
As he toured the plant Tuesday, Wharton said the reality of the plant is vindication of a deliberate strategy.
"In a place like Memphis in an urban environment, where things are often contentious – everybody says you've got to have it in writing. Well, we did not have it in writing but we had good faith," Wharton said. "What we're going to show to the world … is that you can come into this big urban area – get a deal done and get it done on time and everybody walks away winning."

But before I get to some commonly asked tax questions, I wanted to address some comments from last week's column. Several of you said you had retired on Dec. 31, 2012, or Jan. 3, 2013, and had yet to receive any retirement benefit. Keep in mind that if your retirement began in January, your first retirement check would be dated Feb. 1, and you might not receive that check until mid-February at the earliest -- and it will be an interim payment. In the meantime, you should receive your final paycheck from your agency as well as the lump sum payment for accumulated and accrued annual leave.
By the way, the Office of Personnel Management received 22,187 new retirement claims in January. The backlog of applications now stands at 36,062 pending cases. So be prepared to be in interim status for at least a few months -- maybe more.
Now for Bob Leins' response to the tax questions…
What is the biggest misunderstanding that employees have regarding taxes and retirement planning?
My pet issue is that retirees, as well as others, don't fully understand tax brackets. Not that they should be tax accountants, but people have a hard time understanding that if a dollar is withdrawn from a taxable investment like the Thrift Savings Plan or fully taxable traditional Individual Retirement Account, the amount will be taxed at their highest tax bracket, both on the federal and state level.
For example, suppose an individual takes a $1,000 fully taxable distribution at a federal income tax rate of 15 percent and a state rate of 5 percent. If they need the full $1,000, they'll have to withdraw $1,250. If they're in a higher federal bracket, say 25 percent, they'd have to withdraw $1,428.50 to net the $1,000.
What about Social Security taxes and Medicare premiums?
Social Security benefits are tax-free for some people, but for others, part of the benefit is taxable. The taxable part of benefits usually can't be more than 50 percent. However, up to 85 percent of benefits can be taxable if either of the following situations applies to you:
- The total of half of your benefits and all your other income is more than $34,000 ($44,000 if you are married filing jointly).
- You are married filing separately and lived with your spouse at any time during 2012.
There is some good information on these issues in IRS Publication 554: Tax Guide for Seniors.
Medicare Part B premiums are means-tested: If you have a higher adjusted gross income, you pay a higher premium. Most people will pay a Part B premium of $104.90 per month in 2013. However, if your modified adjusted gross income as reported on your IRS tax return from two years ago is above a certain amount, you may pay more. Here's more information on Medicare costs.
Not long ago, a client of mine took a $20,000 distribution that increased the taxation of his Social Security and Medicare benefits so much he vowed never to do it again without calling first. He somehow thought he could just take out $20,000 and have $20,000 to spend. Had he called, I would have suggested he take some or all of the amount from a savings account that would be nontaxable -- or even borrow the money.
During the interim retirement period, OPM does not withhold state income tax from my retirement benefit. What should I do if I live in a state that taxes federal retirement benefits?
The easiest and safest way is to file an estimated tax form. The form is very simple. The amount to be paid can easily be calculated by multiplying the monthly annuity check by the state tax rate. For example, let's say your monthly annuity is $2,000 and your state's income tax rate is 5 percent. That's $100 per month. You could pay $300 in four estimated tax payments, which are generally due April 15, June 15, Sept. 15 and Jan. 15 of the following year.
Another way to pay the state tax is to have excess state withholdings either before retirement or once the annuity is finalized.
How can I find out which states don't tax federal retirement benefits?
The National Active and Retired Federal Employees Association publishes a list of all of the states that do not tax federal retirement benefits, usually in the March or April issue of its magazine. Also, Kiplinger provides an interactive map.
I've heard that part of my retirement is tax-free. Is that true?
While you work, you contribute to either the Civil Service Retirement System or the Federal Employees Retirement System in your biweekly salary payments. This payment is generally 7 percent for CSRS employees (7.5 percent for certain special groups) and 0.8 percent for FERS employees (1.3 percent for special groups). These contributions are withheld after tax, meaning that you've already paid taxes on this part of your future retirement benefit. Tax law allows you to divide the total contributions by your life expectancy (based on IRS tables). The result of this is the nontaxable portion of the annuity. See IRS Publication 721 for information on the calculation, which OPM generally makes for you.
Does this apply to both the federal and state tax returns?
States generally follow the federal calculation. In addition, some states offer other tax incentives. The best source for this information is the NARFE magazine mentioned above.
I might need to take some money from my TSP account after I retire if my first retirement checks are too small to cover my expenses. Any tax strategies that I can use here?
The short answer is, take out as little as possible from your TSP. This is because a distribution from a traditional TSP (as opposed to the new Roth option) is generally fully taxable, and the TSP is required to withhold 20 percent for pre-payment of federal tax from a lump sum payment or when your monthly payments are expected to last 10 years or less. The TSP will not withhold any state income tax from your lump sum distribution.

Outside attack: Red Tornadoes use 3-pointers to stay ahead of Indians
Hickory made it 3-for-3 on Senior Night.
The Red Tornadoes made nine 3-pointers, including four in the third quarter to maintain a double-digit lead on their way to a win over rival St. Stephens on Friday.
With the victory, Hickory secured its third win of the season over the Indians and at least a co-championship of the Northwestern 3A/4A.
"As far as the seniors go, we are so proud of those guys," said Hickory head coach Shawn Johnson. "They have done everything we have asked them to do for the last four years. To come in against a rival, that makes the anxiety level go higher and they handled themselves very well."
It was a perimeter shooting battle between the two schools in the early going. Harrison Bowne hit two long outside shots for St. Stephens and Trez Shuford made a 3-pointer for Hickory.
As both teams settled into the game play, they relaxed a little too much. Early misses by both teams were caused by a fast pace, which caused errant passes and sloppy mistakes.
Johnson likes his team's style of game play, regardless of the situation or team they play.
"If you look at us, we can't afford to slow down," Johnson said. "We don't play at a slow pace at all, whether we are playing St. Stephens or anyone else. That is the way we play. Yes it was by design, but not because it was St. Stephens. That is who we are."
The Red Tornadoes (18-2, 10-0) built on a four-point first quarter lead and pulled ahead by double-digits in the second quarter. Much of that was due to senior Denzel Dillingham, who scored 11 points in the quarter.
Six straight points by the Red Tornadoes in the second quarter forced an early timeout by the Indians. Jalen Byrd and Jordan Walls both scored a lay-up each in the run.
Dillingham electrified the crowd with two steals that lead to a dunk and a reverse layup on back-to-back Red Tornado possessions.
Bowne attempted to keep his team's composure and hammered down a dunk of his own. Also helping the Indians (17-5, 7-4) was Aaron Grier, who scored a team-high 11 points in the first half.
The Indians' Jordan James made two free throws before halftime to cut the lead to nine points, 42-33.
The third quarter was a back and forth affair. Bowne, who had eight points in the first half, scored four quick points to begin the second half.
Dillingham was limited just two points in the second half, but his teammates picked up the slack. Hickory countered with an outside attack.
Two 3-pointers by Byrd in the third quarter and one each by Tyler Poole and Darius Malbon kept Hickory in a comfortable lead.
"We have done that all year," Johnson said. "It has been different people all the time. Tyler made a big one, Jalen made a big one, and Darius made a big one. There are just so many people we have that can make them. We just trust them to shoot the basketball."
Late scores in the third quarter by St. Stephens cut the lead to seven points, but a three by Byrd gave Hickory back its double-digit lead, 59-49, heading into the fourth quarter.
The Indians chopped away at the lead again and silenced the Hickory crowd. After a Grier free throw and layup by Ricky Miller, the lead was down to seven.
However, that was as close as the Indians got in the second half, as the Red Tornadoes continued to score and maintain their lead.
Dillingham finished with 15 points for the Red Tornadoes. Byrd added 14 points for Hickory.
Bowne led St. Stephens with 19 points. Miller added 18 points and Grier scored 12 points.

He averaged over 60 with the bat, scored more of his runs through boundaries than virtually anyone else and scored over 50 in 66% of his innings. He was also completely dominant over anyone else in his team.
He is also a name that stands out from the 2007 WC and someone that made a large contribution to the Tournament far over and above proportional to the games he played or the victories his team had.
I can understand why others would disagree though, but IMO there was no other exceptional candidate that demanded to take the place over him

Great article - disgrace that RTD is in at 7 ahead of Shane Watson . RTD was very good, and being made 12th man would have been fair recognition of his efforts, but Watto was clearly a better performer for mine, especially in the number 7 role.

RtD impacted games more with the bat and was certainly more valuable to his side than Watson was to Australia
Aus already has half the players in the side (inc 12th man), no need to get greedy and want Watson in there as well

Would point out that Watson barely got the chance to bat, and when he did, got little or no time at the crease.

Medical Documentation
If you're seeking disability services via the Disability Services Office, verification of your disability is required. Find out what you need to submit.
Your first option is to provide documentation from the diagnosing professional verifying the current condition of your disability to the Disability Services Advisor. This option generally provides sufficient disability documentation.
If the only documentation you have does not reflect your disability or impairment as it currently affects you, the Disability Services Office can help you identify other forms of verification, such as a history of accommodations you received while enrolled at a previous educational institution.
Your former educational institution can provide verification that you were accommodated for your disability, that the educational institution supports the medical verification, and the dates you attended the educational institution.
Please note that you may be required to provide a copy of your medical documentation from the diagnosing professional along with the letter and accommodations information from your previous educational institution.
If you're having trouble securing appropriate documentation of your disability, please contact your Disability Services Advisor.
