IT depts under threat as City braces for 20,000 job cuts
Worse than dotcom losses
The City of London could lose 20,000 jobs in the next two years as the credit crunch starts to bite.
As many as 11,000 jobs could be lost this year followed by another 8,200 redundancies in 2009.
The number of deals is also expected to fall - mergers and acquistions will drop 26 per cent this year and trading volumes on the London Stock Exchange will drop 36 per cent.
IT departments are likely to feel the pinch along with traders as banks look to cut costs and headcount. Research last month from the CBI predicted a big slowdown in IT spending in the finance sector. The CBI found IT spending overall likely to be flat. It also found a third of firms expecting to cut jobs in the next quarter.
Job losses will be worse than the dotcom crash, when 15,300 jobs were lost, according to research from the Centre for Economics and Business Research.
Worst hit will be corporate finance, investment banking and derivatives trading. Researchers say jobs lost already - at Royal Bank of Scotland and Citibank are just the tip of the iceberg.
In 2007 some 351,000 people were employed in City jobs - there won't be this number of jobs in the City again until 2012.
A global slowdown and consumer slump is likely to slow recovery until 2009.
Because London is so dependent on financial services its growth will slow to 1.3 per cent in 2008 and 2009.®

Branching Out Milwaukee: Robert Pinsky on William Carlos Williams & Robert Frost
Robert Frost and William Carlos Williams have far more in common than their adherents sometimes acknowledge. The shared territory includes their interest in American idiom, and what Frost calls "sentence sounds," as fundamental. Beyond that profound matter of speech at the heart of poetry—and American speech at the heart of their artistic enterprise—Frost and Williams both struggle with the tangled, aspiring, somewhat demented project of American memory. Reading "Directive" alongside the poem from Spring and All that has been called "To Elsie," the similarities are as urgent and provocative as the differences. Similarly, "Fine Work With Pitch and Copper" and "Mowing" engage the subject of work as art and work versus art. In both "To Waken an Old Lady" and "An Old Man's Winter Night," domestic details of old age and mortality become ways to understand the partial nature of consciousness itself.
A joint initiative with the Poetry Society of America, Branching Out: Poetry for the 21st Century is funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities.

Performance Review
Speaking for the Silenced
Río de Lágrimas links imperialism, La Llorona and Juárez slayings
For 20 years, the stories of women and girls killed in Ciudad Juárez have been silenced in their own country and largely ignored by the world. A wave of roughly 60 femicides in 2012 is receiving even less media attention as the untold number of deaths continues to grow. In Río de Lágrimas (River of Tears), a multilingual music and storytelling performance at the National Hispanic Cultural Center, the women of Albuquerque-based collective Las Meganenas nobly attempt to tell the victims' stories.

Stand-up impersonator is all-over-the-place funny
Jill-Michele Meleán got started on her career path by humping her grandmother. "She would yell at me," says Meleán. "So I'd just start dry-humping her leg and then she'd start laughing. So I just kind of made the connection that if I make people laugh, they'll leave me alone." At the tender age of 2, she picked up a lifelong habit of dealing with things through comedy.
Thirty years later, she's an acclaimed stand-up comic and established Hollywood actress. Her credits include roles as a cast member on "MADtv" as well as a recurring character on "Reno 911!" She's also a headliner on The Latin Comedy Jam, a touring act that hits the Kiva Auditorium on Saturday, June 30.

I like can help you learn to read, write and make conversations in a literary romanian in a very short time, by teaching you grammar, phonetics, orthography, sayings, anecdotes, stories and other fun, interesting and useful things.
Always loved to coach the genuine romanian, as it contains the most latin words out of all the latin languages, but is spoken by a very small territory of the globe and it is yet so similar to spanish, italian, french and portuguese.
Contact me if you like to discover or get diaper in the language of romanians.

RICHMOND, Virginia (Reuters) - A recount began on Monday in the election for Virginia attorney general, the tightest race in the state's modern history.
A mere 165 votes out of 2.2 million cast separated Democrat Mark Herring, who has declared victory, from Republican Mark Obenshain, who requested the recount.
A three-judge panel is overseeing the recount and will report its findings this week.
State law provides that when less than 1 percent of the total votes cast separates two candidates, a recount may be requested by the losing candidate after the results are certified by the State Board of Elections.
A win by Herring, a state senator, would give Democrats a sweep of three statewide races in the November 5 election. Herring and Obenshain, also a state senator, are contending to succeed Republican Ken Cuccinelli, who lost the governor's race to Democrat Terry McAuliffe.
Democrat Ralph Northam defeated Republican E.W. Jackson in the race for lieutenant governor.

This Transplant Surgery Fellowship training program is certified by the American Society of Transplant Surgeons.
The Fellowship Program in the Abdominal Organ Transplantation Program at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center (WFBMC) has been in place since 2007. The program is a two year fellowship and as of July 2012 expanded to accepting one fellow per year.
In 2010, a total of 210 patients received transplants, which is the first time that the program has surpassed 200 total patients transplanted in a 12 month period. 2010 was our 6th consecutive year in excess of 150 total transplants and ranks us among the top 20 most active kidney and pancreas transplant centers in the country. The Abdominal Organ Transplantation Program at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center celebrated several milestones in 2010. October 23, 2010 marked the 40th anniversary of the kidney transplant program. In 2010, kidney transplant #2000 was performed. As of January 1, 2011, 2,168 total kidney transplants have been performed at WFBMC. A total of 998 kidney transplants have been performed during the past 7 years, including over 100 kidney transplants annually (average 143 kidney transplants per year) since 2004. In October, 2010, we performed the 160th pancreas transplant (including 125 simultaneous kidney-pancreas and 35 solitary pancreas transplants) since the inception of this program in 1992. As of January 2011, the kidney and pancreas waiting list included 799 candidates of which 52% were active.
The program is designed as a combined academic, clinical, educational, and research experience of 2 years in duration in kidney and pancreas transplantation. In the first year, the fellow will be exposed to the educational and teaching components listed below and will function with close supervision in the clinical components listed below. In the second year, the fellow will participate in the Academic/Research components listed below and function semi-independently from a clinical perspective. The fellow's education and responsibilities evolve with experience and clinical exposure during the training period.
There are two locations utilized for pre-transplant and post-transplant outpatient activities, and a third location for inpatient activities. The main Transplant Clinic and most of the transplant team personnel are located off-campus at a free standing outpatient facility, whereas all remaining services are located at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center.

Home goods and furnishings retailer Wayfair LLC, No. 50 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide, has launched daily deals. Called "Daily Fair," the program will release daily at noon Eastern time up to seven new sales. Wayfair says it will sell items at up to 70% off, with each item available for three days. Consumers can find the sales on Wayfair.com or via e-mail alerts.
"While we satisfy the shopper who knows exactly what he or she needs, we are also looking to engage the browsers and deal-seekers who enjoy the process of discovering great savings from a trusted source with the widest selection," says Niraj Shah, CEO and co-founder of Wayfair.com. "Daily Fair adds another dimension to our unique shopping experience and allows us to leverage our tremendous reach and scale to source deals for our customers better and faster than any other home retailer."
Each day's featured Daily Fair products will be linked by theme or category, Wayfair says. This week, products include tufted headboards, outdoor play goods, novelty kids' room items and contemporary dining furniture. Today's debut deals include home décor accents such as throw pillows, bar stools and laundry room organizational items. Each of those items' product pages includes a second-by-second countdown to the sale's end.
Wayfair says that bloggers, designers or other key personalities in the home goods industry will curate some of the flash sales. For example, Wayfair today launched for Daily Fair a product group selected by designers called "Poker Night Perfected," with items such as poker tables, chairs, cards, chips, ice molds and wall art.Later this week Daily Fair will sell a curated set of goods labeled "Decorating with Texture," with textured furniture items, and "Winter Meals," with kitchen wares for making casseroles and stews, Wayfair says.
Daily Fair items might be featured elsewhere on Wayfair.com, but not with the same discounted pricing, the company says. Items are sold on a first-come-first-served basis and may run out before the deal is up.
The retailer previously launched a private flash sales brand, Joss & Main, and in two years built it to 3 million members, it says. In December, Wayfair raised $36.3 million to expand Joss & Main.
"We are applying our proven track record in the private flash sales model to the everyday Wayfair.com shopping experience to cater to a wider range of shoppers who are seeking value and quality," Shah says. "This is an important evolution in our business model and one that we think will further differentiate our shopping experience and drive the continued growth of our business."

The Summit will also feature dyanmic speakers who can provide a wealth of information that will empower and promote healthy living.

Adrienne Galloway, Certified Fitness Specialist and Wellness Coach will conduct a morning fitness session and be a fitness presenter on Physical Wellness.
Guests will be uplifted in sessions that provide enhancement in their spiritual, emotional, mental, physical and social well being and learn how to achieve personal satisfaction in these areas.

While Ben Bernanke remains unable to value the precious metal, it seems the Arabs are very capable of discerning at least one relative value. In a fascinating effort to reign in Dubai's growing obesity epidemic, the government is willing to pay its citizens (in gold) for losing weight. For each kilo of excess that is lost, the government will pay 1 gram of gold (around $42). There is no discernment – apparently – in the "Your Weight In Gold" initiative that the weight loss be 'fat' which make us wonder how many would 'give their right arm' for a few ounces of gold?
Via Reuters,
Dubai's government will pay residents in gold for losing those extra pounds as part of a government campaign to fight growing obesity in the Gulf Arab emirate.
The 30-day weight-loss challenge was launched on Friday to coincide with the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, when the faithful refrain from eating and drinking during daylight hours.
For every kilogram dropped by Aug. 16, contestants who register from Friday can walk away with a gram of gold, currently worth about $42, Dubai's civic authority announced as part of its 'Your Weight in Gold' initiative.
The top three dieters can win gold coins worth up to 20,000 dirhams ($5,400). The contestant has to lose a minimum 2 kgs (4.4 pounds) to qualify for the contest.
Oil wealth and high household incomes have led to overeating, high-sugar diets and a heavy reliance on cars for getting around, leading to an explosion of diabetes and other obesity-related illnesses.
Five of the 10 countries where diabetes is most prevalent are in the six-nation Gulf Cooperation Council, according to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), an umbrella organisation of more than 200 national associations.
Child obesity is also a growing problem.
Dubai is known for its larger-than-life offers. It has a history of giving away luxury cars and yachts in lucky draws and is home to one the largest gold markets in the region. The emirate even has gold vending machines in shopping malls.

STAR TREK: TACTICAL ASSAULT is a real-time spaceship combat game for 1 or 2 players, featuring a wide array of authentic Star Trek races, ships, and weaponry from the universe of the original Star Trek series. Players take command of powerful Federation and Klingon warships and must outthink and out duel their opponents in order to succeed. Play through either the Federation or Klingon campaigns in single-player mode, or go head-to-head against a friend in wireless multiplayer action. Gameplay in Star Trek: Tactical Assault is about tactics, effective movement, and the use of your ship's weapons and shields. Success in battle depends on balancing your precious energy resources efficiently between these three competing needs.
For the Federation, you are in command of a starship at the start of the Federation's initial five-year mission. A devastating surprise attack by the Klingons leads to full-scale war. As the Federation's Captain, your skills are needed to restore order in the universe. The Federation campaign is a story of responsibility and heroism. For the Klingons, you command an Empire where aggression is the only way to survive, but honor is more important than survival. However, there are some who are willing to betray the Empire and their families for personal gain.
Features :
- Based on the films of The Original Series. Space is the final frontier, Kirk is in command, and the Klingons are the bad guys. Play through the era that started it all with this classic Star Trek game.
- Real-time combat involving multiple warships. The true test of a Captain is his ability to act under fire. Every second counts as you attempt to out-maneuver enemy warships and expose their weaknesses while protecting your own.
- Two full campaign modes. Become a hero of the Federation or a champion of the Klingon Empire in two full-length, independent campaigns.
- Branching missions with multiple outcomes. You are in command. As Captain, it is up to you to make decisions for the good of your Empire. With a multitude of paths to choose from, you will decide the direction and ultimate outcome of your campaign.
- Head-to-Head wireless multiplayer. Test your skills and tactics against the most challenging opponents you'll find…your friends.
- Five playable races. In Skirmish and Multiplayer modes, command ships from the Federation, Klingon, Romulan, Gorn, and Orion fleets. Each fleet has its own combat philosophy, strengths, and weaknesses. Tactics that lead to victory for one race will result in disaster for another.

Their American flag-draped coffins behind him, a solemn President Barack Obama on Friday hailed the service of four Americans killed during the attack on the U.S. consulate in Libya, pledging to honor their memory and not "retreat from the world."
At a formal ceremony in a hangar at Andrews Air Force Base, Md., Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton paid respects to the four men as their remains were returned to U.S. soil.
Clinton spoke first, her voice wavering as she delivered individual tributes. She described Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens' "goofy but contagious" smile, and his outsized courage.
"He risked his life to help protect the Libyan people from a tyrant," she said, "and gave his life helping them build a better country."
Obama called all four men – Stevens; Sean Smith, a foreign service officer; and two former Navy SEALs, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty – patriots who loved their country, "chose to serve it and served it well."
"They had a mission, and they believed in it," Obama said. "They knew the danger and they accepted it. They didn't simply embrace the American ideal, they lived it, they embodied it: the courage, the hope and, yes, the idealism. That fundamental American belief that we can leave this world a little better than before.
"That's who they were, and that's who we are," he said. "If we want to truly honor their memory, it's who we must always be."
Obama, who met with the families of the four men before the ceremony, known officially as the Transfer of Remains, repeated a vow to see that the perpetrators of the attack are brought to justice.
Republicans have criticized Obama's handling of the violent unrest in the Middle East. Obama noted at the ceremony that the deaths and the continued turmoil in the region have raised questions about U.S. involvement there. But he argued for a continued presence and recalled seeing a sign held by a man in Libya that read, "Chris Stevens was a friend to all Libyans."
"That's the message these four patriots sent," Obama said. "Even as voices of suspicion and mistrust seek to divide countries and cultures from one another, the United States of America will never retreat from the world."
Clinton, too, argued for continued involvement, saying, "There will be more difficult days ahead, but it is important that we don't lose sight of the fundamental fact that America must keep leading the world. We owe it to those four men to continue the long, hard work of diplomacy."
And she called on leaders in those countries to do "everything they can to restore security and hold accountable those behind these violent acts."
"The people of Egypt, Libya, Yemen and Tunisia did not trade the tyranny of a dictator for the tyranny of a mob," she said.
After Obama's remarks, the president and Clinton clasped hands momentarily, then joined Vice President Joe Biden in a row of seats to watch as each casket was placed into a waiting hearse by military pall bearers. The remains were to be transported by an Air Force C-17 aircraft to the military mortuary at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware. Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta also attended the ceremony.
The military ceremony came amid a continued spate of anti-American protests at embassies in the Middle East, Africa, London and elsewhere over a vicious anti-Muslim video. Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney has seized upon the unrest to accuse the administration of weakening U.S. standing in the world and mismanaging the Arab Spring, striking at one of Obama's perceived strengths, foreign policy.
Obama acknowledged at the ceremony "there is no doubt these are difficult days," but he said the U.S. would not be deterred.
At the White House, officials defended Obama's stewardship, saying that the administration had no "actionable intelligence" that would have prevented an attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, as a British newspaper has alleged, and that protesters were motivated by anger over the anti-Muslim video, not Obama or U.S. policy.

CAPSULE REPORT: Watermelon is an ancient and versatile fruit. It can be eaten fresh-sliced, grilled or diced; in salads; with cheese (it pairs well with feta and fresh goat cheese); and made into jams, jellies and juice to drink straight or in combination with other fruit juices and/or spirits. Watermelon juice can be made into soup and sorbet and served in numerous other ways. It can be fermented into watermelon beer, and is used to flavor liqueur, vodka and punch. This is Page 1 of a four-page article. Click on the black links below to visit other pages.
Watermelon, Citrullus lanatus, is believed to have originated in the Kalahari Desert in southern Africa (it covers much of Botswana and parts of Namibia and South Africa). An ancestor of the modern watermelon still grows there.
Watermelons are about 92% water—that's how they got their name! In ancient times, travelers carried watermelons as a replacement for water—a watermelon canteen, as it were.
Watermelon is a member of the botanical family Curcurbitaceae. Its cousins include cucumbers, gourds, pumpkins and squash.
Watermelon has been cultivated as early as 2000 B.C.E. The first recorded watermelon harvest occurred nearly 5,000 years ago in Egypt. Watermelon seeds have been found in the tomb of Egyptian Pharaoh Tutankhamen, and in other sites of the 12th Egyptian Dynasty.
Thirsty traders passing through the Kalahari, refreshed by the fruit, began to sell the seeds along the trade routes. Cultivation of watermelon spread throughout Africa.
Watermelon was cultivated in China and other parts of Asia by the end of the 9th century C.E. or the early 10th century. Today China is the world's number one producer of watermelon.
Most culinary historians maintain that watermelon spread from Egypt to other Mediterranean basin countries on merchant trading ships.
According to John Mariani's The Dictionary of American Food and Drink, the word first appeared in English dictionaries in 1615. Watermelon seeds came to the U.S. with African slaves as well as with British colonists. (The U.S. is the world's fourth-largest producer of watermelon, tied with Brazil. Turkey is the second-largest producer after China, and Iran is third.)
Seedless watermelon was developed in 1939 by treating the un-pollinated flowers of watermelons with an acid that prevents the seeds from developing. Yellow-fleshed watermelon, often sweeter, have grown in popularity as well.#square
The latest addition is the small, square watermelon grown by the Japanese to fit in their smaller refrigerators more easily. They're created by placing the watermelons in a square tempered glass box while it is still growing on the vine.
The boxes are the same size as the interiors of small Japanese refrigerators. As one might imagine, these labor-intensive square watermelons are priced at a premium—quotes of about $300 can befound.

Helmet Buying Guide
For a new rider or an experienced rider who is replacing the old helmet, choosing a helmet may be more confusing than buying a bike. Finding the right helmet may be time-consuming, but it can be a rewarding experience.Studies have shown and riders have reported that helmets not only save lives but can drastically reduce the amount of injuries suffered to the face, head and neck.
Some people claim that helmets restrict your vision, it's not true. Manufacturers design helmets to not obscure or block peripheral (side to side) vision. Others claim it reduces your hearing, it actually helps you hear over the engine.
StandardsDOT is the Federal Government's Department of Transportation (DOT). DOT sets minimum standards that all helmets sold for motorcycling on public streets must meet. The standard is Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 218 (FMVSS 218) and is known commonly as the DOT standard. The division of the Department responsible for such things periodically buys helmets and sends them to independent labs for testing to assure that they actually do meet the standard. A helmet that meets the DOT standard offers significant protection if you crash.
The Snell Memorial Foundation is a private not-for-profit organization that sets voluntary standards used primarily in the US for motorcycle helmets, bicycle helmets and auto racing helmets, as well as other kinds of protective headgear. Snell standards are the world's toughest and demand quite a bit more protective capability in helmets than anybody else on the planet.
Each organization has rigid procedures for testing:
- Impact – the shock-absorbing capacity of the helmet.
- Penetration – the helmet's ability to withstand a blow from a sharp object.
- Retention – the chin strap's ability to stay fastened without stretching or breaking.
- Peripheral vision – the helmet must provide a minimum vision of 105 degrees to each side. (Most people's usable
peripheral vision is only about 90 degrees to each side.)
There is the European standard, called ECE 22-05, accepted by more than 50 countries. There's the BSI 6658 Type A standard from Britain. Just by looking at the published requirements for each standard, you would guess a DOT helmet would be designed to be the softest, with an ECE helmet very close, then a BSI helmet, and then a Snell helmet.Novelty helmets may offer you the best comfort but it is not DOT or Snell approved and will not protect your head.
There are so many makes, models and styles. But which one?
Of course each type of helmet has it's benefits and disadvantages. It also has to do with the bike you ride and the type of person you are.
Getting the right fit
A helmet that is too loose may come off in a crash, and one that is too tight will be uncomfortable. Slightly snug is better than too loose, since the interior will tend to settle and compress a bit, molding to your head.Determine the circumference of the widest part of your head by wrapping a flexible tape measure around it. Generally, the widest part of a person's head is the area one-inch above the eyes and ears.
Retention: An essential test before buying or using a helmet, is the roll-off test. With the strap securely fastened, grab the rear lip of the helmet and try to roll it forward off your head. Don't stop just because it hurts a bit. If it comes off, you need a different helmet.Tips
The fact that you wear a Medium in one brand and model does not mean that another model will fit you best in the same size.
An extra faceshield (a tinted one to complement the standard clear) is a nice feature. You might want to buy one if it is not included. An extra shield and a quick-change faceshield mechanism are the best convenience features. A yellow tinted faceshield for cloudy and rainy days is also a good option.If your helmet is a bright-colored visible one, you will be more conspicuous in traffic, making it easier for other motorists to see and avoid you.
Depending on the helmet manufacturer, it is recommended to replacing your helmet every 2-4 years. If your helmet is damaged or showing extreme wear it should be replaced. Replacing your helmet every few years is a good idea as its protection may deteriorate with time and wear. Also as newer materials and helmet designs become available, helmets become stronger, lighter, and more comfortable.
Never hang your helmet on the motorcycle's mirrors, turn signals, or backrest. The inner liner can easily be damaged from such handling.
Jafrum helmets available online are light enough that they do not bother your neck. But, the helmets constructed with Kevlar and/or carbon fiber are ultra light and feel extra comfortable on your head.

You can easily do this is by cleaning and vacuuming at least once a week, frequently washing linens and storing cleaning products safely. Ventilate – proper insulation is great for keeping your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer, but it also makes it difficult for airborne pollutants to escape. Products like our Healthy Climate® ventilation system help exchange stale air for fresh, filtered outside air. Clean – good ventilation and regular cleaning are a start, but Healthy Climate® air filters, germicidal lights and PureAire™ purification systems take your IAQ to the next level by holding microscopic particles, killing germs and removing particles and germs while destroying chemical vapors. Monitor – programmable thermostats will help you monitor the humidity levels and temperature to help prevent particles and germs from piling up and keep your home comfortable.

School fees increase
School fees for most elementary grades in the Wapakoneta City Schools are increasing this year.
For kindergarten, the $39 fee marks a $4 increase, for first grade the fee decreased by $10 to $59, the second grade fee increased $5 to $70, the third grade fee increased by $7 to $70, and the fourth-grade fee increased by $19 to $52.
"They are changing," Superintendent Keith Horner said of the fees approved unanimously by members of the Wapakoneta City Schools Board of Education this week.
He said Wapakoneta Middle School fees are $40 each for fifth- and sixth-grades and $50 for seventh-grade.
High school fees vary depending on a student's class schedule.
Horner described changes in fees at both of those levels as being "not dramatic." He noted that 40 percent of the district's population is exempt from paying the fees due to household incomes. Those receiving free lunch are not required to pay anything toward the fees.
"For the fees, we go through and itemize things, consumable items, workbooks," Horner said. "We are not charging all that we are permitted to charge for the fees. We are trying to be somewhat sensitive."
An itemized list of what was included in the fees was not available.
While parents may be seeing an increase in prices for academics, they are not expected to see one for meals for the 2011-12 school year.
Lunch and breakfast prices also were approved this week for the school year and remain the same as last school year.
Breakfast for elementary students if $1.20, $1.45 for middle school students, and $1.55 for high school students. Reduced breakfast prices are 30 cents.
Lunch is $2.35 for elementary students, $2.50 for middle school students, and $2.60 for high school students. Reduced lunch prices are 40 cents.
Adults are to pay $3 for lunch.
In other business, board members approved:
• Bus routes and walking area for the 2011-12 school year with no major changes. Full routing information is available from the district's transportation office.
• Donations of $1,000 from Eagles Lodge 691 Game Fund for the new tennis courts and $500 from FDIS Central Ohio for credit card machines, which could be moved between locations and used as needed to accept payments.
• Continued membership in the Southwestern Ohio Education Purchasing Council for the 2011-12 school year at a cost of more than $1,524 to be paid 90 percent from cafeteria funds and 10 percent from the general fund.
• Continued participation in the Northwest Ohio Area Computer Service Cooperative for the 2011-12 school year.
• Payment in lieu of transportation for a student to attend Findlay City Schools, for hearing impaired instruction. With transportation by the district determined impractical, payment is to be made to the parent at the approved IRS rate for 100 miles round trip based on the student's attendance record and verification.
In personnel matters, board members approved:
• Supplemental contracts for Ross Kanter as varsity girls soccer coach for more than $2,260, Abby Snider and Christy Steinke as half-time assistant girls soccer coaches for more than $1,475, Derek Dunlap for assistant football at more than $2,950, Bo Frye and Jason Johnson for half-time assistant football coaches at more than $1,475, Bill Sammons for assistant football at more than $3,925, Marc Dyrness as varsity assistant boys basketball for approximately $4,600, Tom Moyer for assistant boys basketball at more than $3,925, Aaron Stiger for assistant boys basketball at more than $2,950, Mark Koch and Ken Wayman for middle school boys basketball at more than $2,950, Ted Adkins, volunteer ninth-grade basketball, and Brandon Steinke, volunteer boys basketball assistant.
• Amend supplemental contract to hire Betsy Ruppert for middle school volleyball at more than $2,550 instead of volleyball assistant.
• Resignations of Bob Askins and Jason Cross from their supplemental positions as assistant football coaches at the high school.
• Employment of Zachery Durnell as a substitute teacher for the 2011-12 school year pending satisfactory completion of criminal records checks.

Leaders of area cities and towns are praising the recommendations of a task force that urges the state to close loopholes that have allowed some untenured teachers, crossing guards, and municipal retirees to collect extra benefits and pay through the unemployment compensation system.
"They covered a lot of good issues," Dedham Town Administrator William Keegan Jr. said. "Obviously, there's going to be additional time to actually sort through that information and find out where it comes out in the final analysis, but the things they highlighted are things we're interested in."
In February, Keegan was one of 24 cosigners of a letter sent by municipal officials from around the state to Governor Deval Patrick, detailing various questionable scenarios in which employees sought and received unemployment benefits. The letter asked for the governor's help to address the situation.
In response, the state asked for feedback from all 351 cities and towns and put together the Municipal Unemployment Insurance Task Force to deal with issues that included that of a retired police officer who received a pension, worked details, and collected unemployment benefits; school bus drivers and crossing guards who collected unemployment benefits during vacations and other days off; and teachers who received notification in the spring that they might be laid off and collected unemployment benefits all summer before they were rehired in September.
The 44-page report, released last month, reviewed several types of cases, and recommends multifaceted solutions that include changes to the law and best practices that cities and towns can use. The report is available online at the Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development website, www.mass.gov/lwd.
"What I think we have done is taken a problem that was brought to our attention and [come] up with a comprehensive analysis, conclusions, and recommendations," said Joanne Goldstein, secretary of the state agency, who chaired the task force, which also included Newton Mayor Setti Warren, Salem Mayor Kim Driscoll, Representative David Torrisi, Senator Dan Wolf, Michael Widmer of the Massachusetts Taxpayers Association, retired Appeals Court judge Raya Dreben, Paul Toner of the Massachusetts Teachers Association, and Jenn Springer of the AFL-CIO.
The recommendations include:
■ A legislative change that would no longer allow retirees who return to work for their previous public sector employer to collect unemployment if their annual pension is $53,920 or higher, because their pension offset would be the same as or greater than their unemployment benefit.
■ Employees who work at schools but are not paid by schools — such as crossing guards — would become ineligible to collect unemployment benefits during vacations.
■ Teachers who are informed in the spring they may not be hired back in the fall remain eligible for unemployment insurance, but under a new system being implemented by the Division of Unemployment Assistance, those benefits will stop if teachers receive notification they have been rehired for a comparable position by their current school district or another school district.
"I think everybody came to the table with the idea to come up with solutions that are fair to folks who need unemployment insurance," said Driscoll, whose city has paid out unemployment benefits to seasonal workers at the city-owned golf course during the winter. "It's a valuable tool if you've been unemployed through no fault of your own. You need to have that safety net, but you certainly don't want it to be abused."
Geoff Beckwith, executive director of the Massachusetts Municipal Association — a collective of municipal leaders throughout the state — was among those who applauded the report.
"The comprehensive approach of offering statutory, administrative, and best practices changes in order to deal with this issue and save communities and taxpayers money is impressive," he said. "The task force did a terrific job of identifying the major problems and the best ways to approach and solve those problems to the benefit of taxpayers."
Municipal claims make up only .5 percent of all unemployment claims in the state, but municipal officials said that over 351 cities and towns, the figure adds up.
They also note that since cities and towns generally self-fund their unemployment benefits rather than pay into the state system, any money paid to unemployed workers comes directly from the town budget.
They also say that while many claims are valid, the dubious ones create a bad public image of municipal employees.
"It does if it's used in a way that's meant to take advantage of the system as opposed to using it for the right purposes," said Keegan. "Nobody will object to a person who is rightfully entitled to unemployment if their position is eliminated or there is no work for them beyond a certain date. The focus of concern is all of the ones that fall into those gaps."
Foxborough Town Manager Kevin Paicos noted that his town has made adjustments to hiring practices based on unemployment concerns, such as hiring for seasonal positions only college students who plan to return to school in the fall.
"If they're not a student going back to school, we don't hire them, period," Paicos said, "which frankly is a shame, because there probably are a whole lot of out-of-work people who'd love to have a seasonal job, and we'd love to give them to them. The problem is, it opens us up to gigantic unemployment claims, and it's not going to happen. So, it's good for the college kids but lousy for the average middle-class man or woman who is out of work."
While Paicos said he was happy to receive the response from the task force, he noted that he'd be most thankful for simpler laws that would require less administrative time to maintain.
"We'd like to have some rational application of common sense to unemployment law in a way that any thinking taxpayer would embrace without the requirement for epically involved administration."David Rattigan may be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Jamestown drug fugitive arrested during routine traffic check
JAMESTOWN – A 28-year-old Jamestown drug fugitive was being being held Tuesday in the Chautauqua County Jail on additional drug charges after his arrest while allegedly trying to hide from police during a routine traffic check on a car he was in.
Darren K. Mushat, who was the subject of a felony warrant in an earlier drug case, was found hiding in the back seat of a car stopped at Washington near Tenth streets about 4:30 p.m. Monday.
As he was being searched by officers he was found to have 1.6 grams of crack cocaine, and an additional charge of criminal possession of a controlled substance was added to his existing drug charges. Arraigned in Jamestown City Court Tuesday morning, he was being held pending further court proceedings.

FOR THE EIGHTH time in 11 seasons, the 76ers will have a new head coach when they tip off the 2013-14 season, as Doug Collins will coach his last game for the Sixers on Wednesday in Indianapolis.
So who will be his successor? Whom will ownership hire to lend some kind of stability to a position that hasn't had any since Larry Brown spent six seasons on the bench?
Here's a look at some of the names. Obviously, there are and will be others, but this should whet the appetite:
Michael Curry: He is Collins' righthand man and the associate head coach, and is most likely the one who will get the endorsement of the outgoing coach. He is a tireless worker, a calm and engaging individual who coached a season in Detroit, compiling a 39-43 record. He may be enticing to the owners because he'll probably come at a low price, and they've spent a boatload of wasted money over the past year (Andrew Bynum, $18 million buyout of Elton Brand).
Stan Van Gundy: The 53-year-old spitfire has had success in seven-plus NBA seasons (371-208): two-plus with Miami, five with Orlando. He possesses a great feel for the game, though his relationship with players has sometimes been a bit rocky.
Jeff Van Gundy: The younger brother of Stan, Jeff, 51, hasn't coached since 2006-07 and has made a nice living for himself as an NBA analyst for ESPN. He knows pressure, as he was hired as the head coach of the New York Knicks when he was only 36, and spent parts of seven seasons there before spending 4 years with the Houston Rockets. His personality has shined as an analyst, a part of him that didn't show when he was a head coach.
Mike Brown: The most recent memory of Brown, 43, is getting fired by the Lakers this season after only five games, during which he won once. He made his name in 5 years in Cleveland, where he won 50, 50, 45, 66 and 61 games and got to the NBA Finals in 2007. Of course, he did have a guy named LeBron James on his roster, but that was about it. In 2009, he was named the NBA's coach of the year. He also spent time as an assistant coach under San Antonio's Gregg Popovich.
Mike Malone: An assistant coach for the Golden State Warriors, Malone also held that position for the Cleveland Cavaliers and New Orleans Hornets. He was on the bench with Brown in Cleveland when it made its run to the NBA Finals in 2007. He is considered one of the hot assistant coaches whose name will be mentioned with most coaching vacancies.
Brian Shaw: Another well-talked-about assistant, Shaw spent eight seasons as an assistant with the Los Angeles Lakers before taking over the same position with the Indiana Pacers in 2011. He is 47; as a player, he won three titles with the Lakers.
Avery Johnson: He was in the running with Collins when then-general manager Ed Stefanski decided on Collins. He eventually wound up with the Nets, but faltered there in this, his third season and was fired 28 games into the season and a .500 record. He is a defensive specialist and another who has the reputation of grading on players. He spent four seasons with Dallas before landing in New Jersey/Brooklyn.
Mike Budenholzer: He has been with the Spurs for the past 18 seasons, 16 of them as an assistant coach, including the last 5 as the top assistant to Popovich. When you are an assistant to perhaps the best coach in the league and with the best organization, you will draw interest.
Kelvin Sampson: Currently an assistant coach with the Houston Rockets, he has extensive college experience, most recently with Indiana University. He has been an assistant coach with the Milwaukee Bucks and San Antonio Spurs.
Larry Brown: Could a return be possible? You can never count Brown out when another job opens. How interesting would that be?

Smashed store windows. Homemade fireworks. Chicagoans knew how to celebrate the Blackhawk's Stanley Cup win Monday night, with enthusiasm that sometimes turned violent.
But Chicago Police officials said the early-morning mayhem was basically peaceful. Police arrested 23 partiers last night on misdemeanor charges for breaking store windows in Lincoln Park and Lakeview, and other forms of reckless and disorderly conduct, but no felony charges were filed.

Go to your local public library branch. Make a note of the genealogy books in the collection that may help you gain research knowledge. Don't forget to check the shelves in both the non-fiction section and the reference section. If you do not already have a library card, take the time to get one. If you have a genealogy blog, write about what you find in your library's genealogy collection.`
I have been into Hornsby Library many times, and I have a library card, and it even has money on it for printing. Hornsby Library has a good family history section, with two microfilm readers/printers.
They don't tend to keep up with later editions of important how-to books, and I find that my own are more up-to-date. They have a good local history collection, as you would expect.
The microfilm and microfiche collection is much more useful to me. They have a large part of the Archive Research Kit developed by the Archives Office of NSW (as it was then, now State Records NSW), which includes:
- the Early Church Records collected by the Registry of Births Deaths and Marriages from the churches once civil registration was introduced
- Colonial Secretary's Correspondence from 1788 to 1825, covered by the online index at State Records NSW
- various convict records
- the Immigration Agents' Lists
- lists of ships arriving
- [forgive the lack of proper citations, I'm writing this from memory on the train]
They also have the Tasmanian birth, death and marriage records up to 1899 on microfilm, which always surprised me until I realised that Tasmania is the only other state that has published theirs on microfilm.
They have a good collection of local newspapers on microfilm, although not full runs.
They also have the rate books and minutes of the local council on microfilm.
I must admit that I have never investigated the resources available on the computers at the library, as I usually have my own, or have used mine at home before I get there. I can also usually find what I'm looking for on the Hornsby Library catalogue online before I arrive.

Champaign, IL—Vegetarian athletes are often concerned with getting enough protein. Since endurance athletes have higher protein needs, sprinkling a few chickpeas on a salad or crumbling a little tofu into a vegetable stir-fry won't get the job done. According to Suzanne Girard Eberle, author of the forthcoming new edition of Endurance Sports Nutrition (Human Kinetics, 2013), most female endurance athletes need 65 to 90 grams of protein a day, and active males typically require 95 to 120 grams daily.
"Keeping up with your protein needs requires a two-pronged approach: Eat a variety of plant foods daily and consume enough calories to maintain your weight," says Eberle, a former champion runner who represented the United States on three national teams. "Consuming too few calories means that protein gets used for energy rather than for building, repairing, and maintaining body tissues, including muscle."
Because plants contain low levels of one or more essential amino acids, grains, dried beans and peas, nuts, seeds, and vegetables are considered lower-quality protein sources than animal sources, which provide essential amino acids that the body constantly recombines to create the new proteins. "Soybeans, however, are the exception," explains Eberle. "They contain certain amino acids in higher amounts than found in other beans, so ounce for ounce, soybean protein is equivalent in quality to animal protein."
In the past, vegetarians were advised to combine specific plant foods, such as rice and beans, within a meal. When eaten together, these foods would complement each other by providing all the essential amino acids needed to build new complete proteins. "Today we know that combining plant foods at the same meal isn't necessary. The body can assemble its own complete proteins from a small pool of free amino acids that it maintains for this purpose," says Eberle. "If you are a vegetarian, however, this system is effective only if you eat a variety of plant foods, as well as enough calories, every day."
To boost protein intake and avoid the carb-overload trap, Eberle advises including a protein-rich food at all meals and snacks. "A good strategy is to ensure that you don't eat your grains plain," Eberle advises. "Smear nut butters, low-fat cottage cheese, or hummus on a bagel. Vary your pasta toppings by using canned spicy beans one night and a vegetable and tofu stir-fry another."
According to Eberle, vegetarians who eliminate animal foods without substituting traditional vegetarian staples have the most trouble meeting their protein needs. "A good rule to follow is to eat dried beans, peas, lentils, and soy foods daily," Eberle says. "Quick-fix beans like precooked canned varieties and meat substitutes made from soybeans are easy ways to get the protein that you need."

A Dartmouth man charged with attempted murder after a beating at another building on his street Monday night will remain in custody for at least three more weeks.
Kenneth Wayne Hodder, 53, was arrested Tuesday night at his Gaston Road residence. He's also charged with robbery, after investigators determined a sum of money was stolen from the victim following the assault.
Hodder made a brief appearance in Dartmouth provincial court Thursday. Lawyer Jill Lacey said he was waiving his right to a bail hearing at this time and consenting to remain in custody.
Judge Jean Whalen ordered Hodder to return to court Oct. 27. She banned him from contacting the victim, Randall Smith.
Hodder has three convictions on his record from the 1980s and was convicted of robbery and break and enter in 1999.
A person who knows Smith and wishes to remain anonymous said Friday he was beaten with a baseball bat and was still in a coma in hospital.
"He hasn't come around since he was beaten," the person said.
"He hasn't moved a bit."
The person is worried Smith will die.
"His dad was here yesterday cleaning up the blood. There was blood all through the living room, all through the kitchen."
The person said Smith tended to flash money around if he had it and owned several sets of collectible coins. He also liked to buy and sell watches, the person said.
"I don't think he'd be able to hurt a fly."
The person fears the repercussions of being the one who spoke with police.
"I told them. I said, 'Check this guy out,'" the person said.
"(But) I'm not going to lie to the police. … If they ask me a question, I'm not going to lie to them."
