As the end-of-the year standardized testing season gets underway in North Carolina's public schools, a few families from across the state are quietly refusing to participate, echoing national protests against the practice.
The families are frustrated with the number of tests students must take and how they measure performance, the way test preparation has changed how teachers must spend their time in the classroom and the way test results are used to rate students, teachers and schools.
In North Carolina, there is no official policy that allows a family to opt out of testing. If a student refuses to fill in answers, he or she receives a failing score that is factored into student, teacher, school or district performance evaluations depending on the test.
The families refusing the tests say they've carefully considered the consequences and feel theirs is a necessary step.
"I think in order to have change you have to have someone get the ball rolling," said Ilina Ewen, the mother of a Raleigh third-grader who is enrolled in Wake County Public Schools. Her son will not participate in some of the standardized tests for third-graders.
Ewen is confident her son would pass the tests and is not opposed to all testing. But, she wants fewer, higher-quality tests that don't punish students and teachers based on one score.
While Ewen doesn't know of many North Carolina parents making the same decision to refuse the tests, she's aware of plenty who are paying close attention to how testing affects their children and schools.
"I think there's a lot of frustration about the testing, but they don't realize what their options are," she said.
Across the country, parents and teachers are rallying against standardized testing, making headlines in New York City, Seattle and elsewhere. The number of standardized tests have climbed in recent years along with state and federal mandates designed to measure performance.
In Wake County, some school board members have been vocal critics of standardized tests. The board's latest legislative agenda includes lobbying the state legislature to consolidate the tests.
School board member Jim Martin said he frequently hears from families concerned about the volume and quality of testing.
"I share a lot of those concerns," he said. "I often say, the world doesn't come to you in a multiple choice test."
Martin said he believes in the value of assessment but thinks few of the tests are worthwhile, in part because of the emphasis they put on one day of testing, when a child could be sick or anxious. The tests may highlight broad trends in the student population, he said, but they can't tell the full story of an individual child or teacher.
No opt-out policy
In March, the N.C. Department of Public Instruction issued a memo to superintendents that spelled out the state's policy on testing: all students are required to participate because of state and federal laws, even if parents request otherwise.
"Although we recognize these parents' concerns, to date the North Carolina State Board of Education (SBE) has not allowed any student to opt out of required State testing unless there were extenuating circumstances, primarily related to serious health conditions," the memo said.
Tammy Howard, director of accountability services at the department, said the state issued the memo after hearing from a few parents with questions about refusing the tests, to ensure families and school districts would have the guidance they needed.
She said that though the number of parents refusing is small, there is more interest in the process of opting out.
"It has been more of a conversation this year than ever, at least in my experience," she said.
The tests N.C. students must take include end-of-grade reading and mathematics assessments for third- through eighth-graders, end-of-grade science tests for fifth- and eighth-graders, and end-of-course exams in subjects such as Math I and biology.
Renee McCoy, a spokeswoman for Wake schools, said the district follows the state guidelines and requires all students to participate in testing. Without an official state opt-out policy, the school system can't track how many students do so, although officials estimate their numbers are very few, she said.
Pamela Grundy, the mother of a seventh-grader in Charlotte, said an official opt-out policy would be a good first step to help families navigate the complicated world of standardized testing. Her family will refuse end-of-year tests this spring for her son, a seventh-grader.
"The tests keep expanding, the stakes keep rising, and we don't see any end in sight," she said.
The decision is not one Grundy and her family undertook lightly. Families should look carefully at whether failing a test will affect promotion to the next grade level or course placement, or have no direct effect on an individual, she said.
Grundy said another concern for her was how a failing score would affect teachers. She said she would like to see a policy that ensures a teacher's performance measurement isn't skewed by a blank test.
After a student takes a test, administrators send all of the data to SAS, which runs the statistical analysis that measures teacher performance. The analysis does check for anomalies in the data, so if a student has typically scored well, the blank test may be considered an outlier and excluded. But, if a student turns in blank tests annually, those failing scores eventually would no longer be unusual.
"If they systematically opted out of tests year after year, the subsequent tests wouldn't be outliers," said Thomas Tomberlin, director of District Human Resources at DPI. He said the state can't guarantee a teacher's effectiveness growth score won't ever be affected by refused tests.
Grundy, who is co-chair of the education advocacy group MecklenburgACTS, said that without an official policy in place, parents should approach their children's teachers and principals early to develop a plan for what will happen when they refuse. She knows of about a dozen families refusing to participate in testing.
State Superintendent June Atkinson sent a message to the state's superintendent's last week noting that students who complete tests early are allowed to read novels or other non-textbooks while they wait for the testing period to end.
Grundy said she hopes the policy will be an option for students who decline to fill out the test as well.
In Raleigh, Ewen said she is working with her son's school to develop a plan that either allows him to read or to work on another project outside of the classroom.
"We don't want to be a disruption and distraction to the class," she said.

Pen Sherwood's Amitors artwork goes anywhere with Diana Kisselburg's words! Many years ago, my uncle Thomas (Tom) Phillip Hufford asked me to come up with a word the opposite of predator. Amitor is that word. Ami: Fr. friend, Amigo: Sp. friend, Amity: Eng. harmony, Ami: Formosa, Taiwan. Giraffe: non predatory animal unless young attacked. Butterflies: live, love, laugh, hope. Survive, thrive and inspire others. Pen Sherwood offered to do this Amtor artwork for free sharing the copyright with me for my Amitor concept. Amitor Tom would be so proud. Diana Hays Kisselburg

CLEVELAND (AP) — A Cleveland airport spokeswoman says a United flight from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., slid off a slick runway onto a grassy area amid freezing winter weather.
No injuries were reported in the Friday morning mishap.
Jackie Mayo, spokeswoman at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport, says two busloads of passengers were taken from the plane to the terminal. Crews were sent to unload the luggage and tow the plane off the grass.
Mayo says all the landing gear wound up on a grassy area as the plane ran off the runway while approaching a taxiway at about 10:45 a.m.

ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia (AP) — Sudan and South Sudan's presidents were in Ethiopia's capital on Sunday for talks over oil and border disputes to meet a deadline imposed by the United Nations Security Council which threatened sanctions if the two nations fail to resolve their disagreements.
Sudan President Omar al-Bashir is supposed to meet with South Sudanese leader Salva Kiir in Addis Ababa on Sunday, the deadline imposed by the U.N., said Ethiopia's Foreign Minister Berhane Gebrechristos.
Ethiopia's newly elected prime minister has been pushing both sides to reach an agreement and is consulting with the leaders before they meet, Berhane said.
South Sudan suspended oil export in January and border clashes over disputed regions in April nearly escalated to all-out war between the neighboring countries. African Union peace talks have helped ease tensions with an oil exportation and revenue sharing deal reached in August, but Sudan insists it needs a border security agreement in place before allowing South Sudan to use its pipelines.
"The points are on the table and I think both (Sudan and South Sudan) are going to deal with the substantives issues in the afternoon," Berhane said. "We are quite hopeful and optimistic that things will move forward."
For weeks, negotiators from both sides have been holding talks in Addis Ababa to present a deal for their leaders to sign on Sunday. Earlier this week the negotiators told Ethiopia's prime minister that they are not close to settling the disagreements.
However, Sudan's defense minister and its chief negotiator told Ethiopia's Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn that a modality for trade between the two countries that includes the banking system and operations between the countries has been finalized, according to Ethiopia's foreign ministry.
The two sides have also agreed on independent administration of pensions, according to the ministry.
"In relation to the national debt, the two sides have agreed on a tentative scheme which the chief negotiator said now depends on the decision of creditors," according to the ministry. Sudan's chief negotiator Idriss Abdel Gadir said, "If all non-external debts are not cancelled by the creditors, Sudan has agreed to share the debts with South Sudan," the Ethiopian ministry said in a statement.
The two sides are still at odds over the disputed oil-rich Abyei region and other contested border areas. They must also still agree on a demilitarized border.
The African Union says the two leaders need 'to take advantage of the unique opportunity' and reach agreement on all outstanding issues.
"Difficult decisions must be made by both sides to finalize negotiations on their post-secession relations," the AU said in a statement released on Saturday.
South Sudan broke away from Sudan last year after an independence vote, the culmination of a 2005 peace treaty that ended decades of war that killed more than 2 million people. Despite the treaty, violence between the two countries rose earlier this year, in part because the sides never agreed on the where the border lies, nor how to share oil revenues from the border region.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — The Army Corps of Engineers said Friday that improvements to the New Orleans-area levee system did not cause Hurricane Isaac's storm-surge flooding in parts of Louisiana that were not inundated during Hurricanes Katrina and Gustav.
In a newly released report, the corps said flooding during Isaac was the result of the storm's landfall just west of the Mississippi River, rainfall amounts of 8 to 20 inches, a forward speed three to four times slower than Katrina and an extended period of easterly winds that pushed surge heights to record levels.
The Times-Picayune reports (http://bit.ly/S6cX4Q) that residents and elected leaders in several area parishes — including St. John the Baptist, St. Tammany, Plaquemines and Tangipahoa — had pushed for the study after record flooding in some areas in late August.
The study found the unusual combination of Isaac's storm characteristics resulted in surge heights greater than those typically associated with a Category 1 hurricane. Isaac was a weak Category 1 storm, with maximum sustained winds of 80 mph, just 5 mph above hurricane-strength.
High-water-mark measurements collected after Isaac indicate its surge heights were below elevations of the pre-Katrina hurricane levee system in most areas.
The study used two computer model simulations of Isaac's storm surge to test whether it was affected by the levee system — one with the completed levee improvements, the other without them.
For St. John the Baptist and St. James parishes, which experienced significant flooding during Isaac, the surge heights reached record levels as a result of the lengthy period of time — 45 hours from mid-day on Aug. 28 through mid-day on Aug. 30 — that tropical storm force winds, generally from the east, blew water into Lake Pontchartrain.
The levee improvements actually resulted in about a one-inch decrease in surge levels in that area, according to the modeling, although at LaPlace, where the surge reached 8.4 feet, there was no change resulting from the levee improvements, according to the modeling.
In Madisonville, where the surge reached 9.4 feet, the new levees had no effect on its height.
Concerns also had been raised after Isaac that the huge West Control Complex, which is designed to block surge moving north from the Barataria Basin from affecting West Bank communities, might actually increase the amount of flooding in Crown Point and other locations near Lafitte.
At Braithwaite in Plaquemines Parish, where the surge reached 13.9 feet and overtopped a parish levee, flooding hundreds of homes and the Stolthaven chemical storage facility, the levee system increased the water height by 1 inch.

Even as officials struggle to keep Greece's economic woes from spreading to other nations, the battle over the latest bailout is taking a psychological toll. In Greece, and across Europe, these economic worries are turning to gloom.
Another day, another protest in Greece, where anger is giving way to hopelessness.
"It is unfair, it is a mistake, to put an end to social support in Greece, because this will end up being applied to all the European Union," said George and 38-year-old civil engineer.
He says ending the social support system in Greece is unfair, a mistake.
Far from the protest, more anguish as Greeks lined up for free meat for Ash Thursday, an annual Orthodox Christian tradition. And the desperation is spreading.
"I don't know if there's going to be growth again," said Marco Sportelli, a construction worker in Italy. "I think we should abandon Greece, because the more money we give them, the more they will ask and the more it will drag down other European countries. Then we will see what we can do for ourselves. For the moment it seems we are going in the right direction, then we will see what happens."
He adds that he does not know if the economy will ever grow again and worries Greece will drag down all of Europe.
The frustration is also evident in France, where politicians like Socialist Party presidential candidate Francois Hollande warns of more economic pain.
"The downward slide of this [financial] system, including in Europe, in the eurozone, where ratings agencies have become all-powerful and decide the fate of the sovereign debts of countries, provoking austerity measures that are more and more painful, and speculation continues to destroy the eurozone. Have you seen the situation in Greece? They have been brought to their knees," said Hollande.
In Spain, where unemployment is among the highest in Europe, buildings like these in Ciudad Valduez stand empty.
A train that was supposed to take workers to Madrid rolls right through, leaving behind a ghost town amid the gloom.

POWELL, Ohio (AP) — The Columbus Zoo's recent additions include a monkey named after a quirky scientist character on the CBS comedy "The Big Bang Theory."
The colobus monkey named Dr. Sheldon Cooper was born March 3. A spokeswoman says zoo staff pick names based on themes, and they made the TV show the latest one because they're fans.
She says keepers joke it's too soon to tell whether the monkey will live up to his namesake's brilliance.
It was the first of four recent births for the zoo's African forest exhibits.
Two red river hogs were born April 12. The month began with the birth of a black duiker (DEYE'-kur), which is a four-legged, forest-dwelling animal. It is part of the antelope family and is found in parts of Africa.

I Spy A Sequel.
The fabulous and deadly British secret agent Cate Archer returns to stamp out
the evil forces of H.A.R.M.! What exactly does H.A.R.M. stand for, anyway? Harsh
Administrators of Regurgitated Menace? Hateful, Angry, Riotous Masochists? Hell,
Acronyms R Meaningless?
They never tell you for sure, though that shouldn't keep you from checking
out No One Lives Forever 2, the sequel to the
first-person shooter sleeper of 2000.
This time around, the game highlights its varied gameplay. There's more than
one way to get through any area – some areas may call for strictly stealth or
outright offense, but most of the game requires a mixture of the two, thanks
in no small part to the advanced AI.
The enemy AI exhibits the same deft awareness and unpredictability as the
original. Rather than simply scripting a set location and action for a given
H.A.R.M. agent, the enemy is given a number of abilities and an area to traverse.
You might catch him taking a bathroom break or returning to his desk to file
some paperwork.
you decide to shoot an enemy down. If another enemy is nearby, he'll catch wind
of your villainy and rush over to his fallen comrade, screaming for retribution.
He may then have time to hit the alarm, leading to droves of respawned angry
footmen. It's quite cool.
However, the respawning at times damages the stealth play and the illusion
that you're dealing with a set number of soldiers. Perhaps the ability to turn
alarms off would have helped negate this.
If you are feeling generous, you can just shoot a tranquilizer dart, sending
the H.A.R.M. agent to slumberland. Whether they are asleep or dead, enemy opponent's
fallen bodies can be searched for essential items such as ammo and health. Try
stealing their weapons and hiding somewhere. When the enemy agent reawakens,
he'll cry out for his lost weapon and then run off, crying for his momma. Nice.
Sneaking also gives you a chance to eavesdrop on the quirky antics of the
NPC's, who debate everything from the lack of women in crime to the pros and
cons of armed monkeys. Eavesdropping was and still is one of my favorite features
of this series.
While the game is still laugh-out-loud funny, it's not quite as humorous as
the original, perhaps in part because NOLF 2 is so much shorter than
its predecessor. The original took about 25-30 hours; NOLF 2 takes about
half that time and has a tendency to reuse maps.
There are 15 chapters in NOLF 2, from the chilly north to the Middle
East, and yes, even Akron, Ohio. Each chapter is comprised of multiple maps
sewn together. Some chapters involve multiple maps across different times of
days, while other chapters zip by with less than a handful. Blink and it's over.
The maps are loosely stitched together with lengthy load times on average
rigs. While more memory may minimize these loads, the game cuts away to a yellow
mission 'data/load' screen, which annoyingly breaks up the continuity
Cate has access to all the latest spy gadgets and gizmos, among which include tracking darts to indicate an enemy's proximity on her compass dial. Unfortunately, there's no indicator of which direction the enemies are looking or the distance their gaze registers. Guess we can't all have nano-technology shot up the yin-yang, but seeing the enemies' line of sight would have helped the whole stealth angle work better
Cate can also rifle through file cabinets and pick up pieces of information and evidence, just like a real spy. Points are awarded for finding useful documents and contraband; points are also awarded for meeting main and optional mission requirements, as well as completing chapters unscathed.
In an RPG twist, these points are utilized to upgrade Cate's different abilities. Adding points to her 'Search' function will speed up search times, while upgrading 'Marksmanship' will enable her to make accurate shots from greater distances. Some other statistics to adjust include her Stamina and Armor, as well as Cate's ability to use gadgets.
The snowmobile makes a return visit, but I would have liked a third-person view for vehicles. Since there has yet to be an analog keyboard, controlling speed is a little tough, boiling down to either stop or go.
of your traditional Deathmatches, multiplayer offers up Cooperative missions
where you play as one of a group of UNITY agents sent in to bail Cate out of
trouble against whatever H.A.R.M. may befall her. These episodes work in between
Cate's story. They can be fun, especially if you have a LAN setup, but there
are only four maps. Deathmatches and Assault stages are promised as an addition
in a future patch.
The voices are still expertly done. I enjoyed the French mimes, waltzing about uttering silly phrases like giant Pepe Le Peus. I also find it admirable that the many South Asian Indian voices maintain the deprecating humor.
The main musical track is catchy…at least the first couple times I heard it. Unfortunately, this track is severely overplayed every time the enemy detects Cate and chases her down. Otherwise, the rest of the music keeps up the jazz flavor and the sound effects fit the game to a tee.
In the first game, characters gazed outward with dead eyes, dull and lifeless. Now, the characters emote and act with lifelike animation, with genuinely vivid eyes and accurate mouth movements. The environments are beautifully rich and a significant step up from the original Lithtech engine. The game looks good.
However, you'll run into trouble if your video card is not equipped with Hardware
Transform and Lighting, a feature found in current ATI and Nvidia cards. What
makes this issue annoying is that Hardware T & L isn't a heavily touted quality
among video cards. You won't find "Now with more Hardware Transform and Lighting!"
emblazoned on the box; it's there in the fine print and sometimes not at all.
A Voodoo 5 has been documented to work with a Software T&L emulator, but only to varying degrees of success. Hercules Kyro owners, like I formerly was, are just utterly out of luck. Even though at some point software must begin to implement the newest hardware power, support for a wider range of graphic cards would have made it easier for a wider audience to enjoy this game. I'm not taking points off, but it's something to be aware of, especially if you are uncertain whether or not your card makes the cut.
NOLF 2 is a very good game, but the original No One Lives Forever
still holds a warmer place in my heart because it was such a surprise of a game.
Still, NOLF 2 meets my expectations with beautiful animations, well-written
enemy AI, and a shorter but still engaging single player mission. Perhaps H.A.R.M.
really stands for Humorous Adventure, Resplendently Made.

At HTC®, we are committed to making innovative products in a responsible manner – respecting people, the communities in which we operate and the environment. Our global corporate responsibility standards and sustainability goals are designed to:
Our business success and ability to innovate is directly tied to the well-being of our most valuable asset, our employees. The character of our company and ability to create a sustainable, rewarding work environment is defined by personal integrity and honesty of our employees, as we endeavor to adhere to responsible, honest and ethical business practices.
We are committed to upholding the fundamental principles of human rights for all of our workers. Specifically, with regard to our factory workers, our respect for the protection and preservation of human rights is guided by the principles set forth in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Our relationship with our employees, customers and suppliers, and with the countries and communities in which we operate, reflect the principles set forth and referred to herein. Additionally, we promote freely chosen employment, and prohibit harassment and discrimination.
We endeavor to provide a balanced work schedule consistent with local labor practices for our employees. With regard to our factory workers, we follow standards established by the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (EICC) to limit excessive overtime. Manufacturing suppliers are required to follow our Supplier Code of Conduct and implement at least 24 consecutive hours of rest in every seven-day period.
We strive to create a healthy and safe working environment for our employees. For example, our factory employees receive ongoing health and safety training as required for their jobs and our manufacturing facilities are closely managed through proper design, engineering and administrative controls, preventative maintenance, and establishing safe work procedures. Inspections are performed on a regular basis.
Our Health and Safety guidelines are updated on an annual basis to reflect current health and safety conditions. The guidelines include managing hazardous materials, and reducing workplace injuries and hazardous materials. Certified under OHSAS18001:2007 for occupational health and safety management system, we have also implemented automation in certain parts of the assembly process in our own factories to reduce risk of repetitive strain injuries.
Key components of our Health and Safety guidelines:
Diversity is a core value of our global corporate culture and it helps us meet the changing needs of our customers, communities and partners. We are an equal opportunity employer and do not discriminate in employment and personnel practices on the basis of race, sex, age, physical or mental disability, religion, national origin or any other characteristic protected by applicable laws.
Child labor is a very serious issue and we take proactive measures to prevent the use of under-aged labor in our own manufacturing facilities as well as those of our manufacturing suppliers. We mandate proof of age for employment to ensure we meet all local labor laws and requirements. Our Supplier Code of Conduct for manufacturing suppliers restricts any form of unfair labor practices and clearly articulates our expectation that all factory workers are of the legal working age. In addition, we regularly conduct labor audits and communicate our expectations on fair labor practices to our manufacturing suppliers.
We aim to continuously find innovative ways to reduce energy consumption, eliminate waste, and reuse materials to minimize our impact on the environment and develop a sustainable footprint.
To reduce our emissions and lower our carbon footprint, we have designed a very short supply chain and most of our suppliers' factories are located close to our main manufacturing sites in Taoyuan, Taiwan, and Shanghai, China. Our engineers and designers are focused on designing devices that are more energy efficient. In addition, we enforce the standards in our Supplier Code of Conduct with our manufacturing suppliers and review environmental practices during audits of such suppliers. We also monitor our greenhouse gas sources and emissions in compliance with ISO 14064-1 standards.
The proper management of waste, chemicals and other materials is critical to the protection of the environment and the health and safety of our factory employees. We require our manufacturing suppliers to comply with applicable laws and industry standards, such as the Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (RoHS). We have several programs dedicated to assuring proper management and control of waste materials, including supplier compliance audits, factory inspections, and the safe handling and storage of chemicals and waste materials. We have also implemented an inspection system employing chemical and physical analysis and document collection throughout our supply chain to reduce or eliminate substances of environmental concern.
For us, waste reduction begins with reducing waste production at the source. We are committed to reducing the volume of industrial waste from our manufacturing processes and increasing resource recycling. This commitment has resulted in us maintaining an average annual recycling rate of 60 percent of production waste. In HTC's main offices, all packaging and waste materials such as cardboard boxes, containers and plastic packaging material are collected and separated for recycling. Further, we look for ways to reduce waste, such as by implementing a take-back program in the U.S. which enables consumers to return used electronic devices at no cost for reuse or recycling and introducing a pilot program to remove device chargers from our sales packaging.
We have obtained the ISO 14000 series of certifications for environmental management to continually minimize our environmental impact and comply with applicable laws, regulations, and other environmental standards. Our certifications include:
As a condition of working with us, we require our manufacturing suppliers to adhere to the principles and standards of HTC's Supplier Code of Conduct with respect to people, health and safety and the environment. Download our Supplier Code of Conduct for more details. We conduct regular audits of our manufacturing suppliers to ensure compliance and closely monitor any supplier that is deemed to be at risk of breaching our Code of Conduct.
HTC's Supplier Code of Conduct (Code) describes our corporate and social responsibility requirements for manufacturing suppliers. As a condition of doing business with HTC, we expect our manufacturing suppliers (and their suppliers) to acknowledge and implement these requirements and ensure responsible business practices. We regularly assess compliance to these requirements and factor adherence to these requirements when making partnership selections.
The labor, environment, health and safety, and ethics requirements outlined in the Code are consistent with internationally-recognized standards established by the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (EICC), the United Nations, and theInternational Labor Organization (ILO). Our Code covers:
Manufacturing supplier audits are a critical component of ensuring the integrity of our supply chain. Therefore, we actively manage the auditing process and have a dedicated supplier audit team that travels to manufacturing suppliers' sites to ensure they are meeting local regulatory requirements and adhering to our Supplier Code of Conduct. Our supplier audit team is responsible for auditing our manufacturing suppliers on a regular basis, including labor, environment and health and safety compliance. We follow industry-recognized and internationally-accepted standards such as the guidelines established for electronic companies by the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (EICC). Suppliers that are identified as having compliance issues are informed and are immediately tasked to create remediation plans that address the identified issues.
Our sourcing policy requires raw materials used in our products to be extracted, processed and produced in a responsible manner consistent with our environmental and ethical policies. The use of conflict minerals in the electronics industry is a significant issue. As a member of the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (EICC), we subscribe to the EICC Code of Conduct, which requires participants to adopt a sourcing policy that will ensure that the tantalum (also known as coltan), tin, tungsten and gold minerals used in their products do not benefit armed groups that perpetrate human rights abuses in the Democratic Republic of Congo and surrounding area. Since traceability remains difficult, HTC has stopped sourcing minerals from the Democratic Republic of Congo and the Central African region altogether. As a condition of doing business with HTC, our suppliers must acknowledge and agree to our responsible sourcing policy. We review our suppliers' mineral sourcing practices through our supplier audit program.
Being a good global citizen starts with being a good local citizen. We support a range of programs in our communities that include academics and education, environmental protection, culture and arts and volunteer services. For example:

The C 280 combines the ultimate in fishability with creature comforts not typically found in hard core fishing machines.
Start with optional helm and companion flip-up bolster-style seating for comfortable operation while sitting or standing. And check out the expansive helm area for mounting multiple large screens for fish finding accuracy. Aft of the helm in the seat base is a 52-gallon lighted, recirculating livewell just opposite of the transom mounted rigging station with removable tackle drawers, cutting surface and molded tool holders. Passengers will appreciate the comfortable and convenient folding stern seat that quickly folds flush to the transom when the fishing begins. The two 29-gallon in-deck fishboxes with macerators are insulated to make your ice last longer so your catch stays fresher. There's an additional 45-gallon insulated fishbox in the transom.
The head compartment within the console features room for storage and contains a manual head with holding tank, pumpout and macerator. The forward console seat base houses a 140-quart cooler and features a plush three-inch thick seat cushion.
The molded-in split bow and companion seating affords additional seating as well as unobstructed bow access for anchoring, docking or casting.

$100,000 spent, East Kingston waits for results of AG probe into police departmentBy JASON SCHREIBER
Union Leader Correspondent
January 29. 2014 10:53PM
EAST KINGSTON — Town officials are losing patience and demanding answers from the state Attorney General's Office on an investigation into the East Kingston Police Department that began last August and has cost the town $100,000 in legal bills and other expenses.
"We've been consistently contacting them, trying to get an end date to this with really no success. We're quite frustrated," Selectman Chairman Mark Cook said.
The Attorney General's Office is conducting a criminal probe to determine whether any members of the police department could be held criminally liable after an inmate trusty from the county jail left alone for several hours allegedly broke into the evidence room while working at the police department.
Inmate Jarred Brisbois was accused of breaking in and stealing heroin that he later brought back to the jail. Police Chief Reid Simpson and Cpl. Mark Iannuccillo were placed on paid administrative leave. Iannuccillo resigned in September; Simpson remained on paid leave until Jan. 1 when the town stopped paying him, Cook said.
The case prompted selectmen to freeze spending within all departments to avoid overspending the town budget.
Assistant Attorney General James Vara said Wednesday he can understand town officials' frustration, but would not say when the investigation might conclude.
"We certainly don't want to do it too quickly and not come to the appropriate resolution," he said.
After Simpson and Iannuccillo were put on leave, selectmen hired Municipal Resources Inc. to manage the police department and conduct an internal investigation. MRI was asked to look into the trusty incident and review the management of the department. Its report was recently submitted to selectmen.
Cook said the board is still reviewing the report, which hasn't been made public. Selectmen have asked their state representatives to get involved in hopes of getting answers.
"I understand they're busy, but on the other hand it's a burden to the town. It's a cost to the town, not only in money but we're without personnel. It's a stressful time," Cook said.
To control expenses, the town has stopped using MRI's services, Cook said. Officer Craig Charest was promoted to corporal earlier this month so he could serve as the officer in charge in Simpson's absence.

Product 25/59
LaPrima Bermuda Grass Seed - LaPrima Bermuda grass seed is the best choice for your high profile project where fast germination, rapid establishment and excellent turf performance are required. It is the first Certified blend of improved, turf-type seeded bermuda grass varieties. The high performance varieties in LaPrima were chosen for their individual benefits and characteristics: to provide an extremely high quality turfgrass surface in a shorter time, at less expense to the consumer and with easier maintenance requirements. LaPrima will outperform single seeded varieties in most situations. You can always count on LaPrima bermuda grass blend to consist of the best bermuda varieties available.
LaPrima is a blend of:
Dune Bermuda
Royal Bengal Bermuda
****LaPrima is a coated seed****
World Renowned
Bermuda grass is the primary turfgrass for much of the temperate and tropical world. Originating in Africa and India, this grass has the ability to withstand extremes in climatic and growing conditions around the world. "Common" bermuda grass seed has been used for many years as a preferred turf surface for uses as diverse as professional sports fields, parks and home lawns. In recent years, plant breeders have devoted considerable efforts to improving the overall turf quality and performance of the seeded bermudagrass species, Cynodon dactylon, in order to provide turfgrass managers with an economic alternative to the high cost of installing and maintaining hybrid bermudagrass sod.
Uses & Applications
This scientifically formulated blend of the top performing seeded turf-type bermuda grass varieties, delivers excellent results throughout the temperate, subtropical and tropical regions of the world. Recent research has also shown LaPrima to be an excellent resource for the transition zone turfgrass manager. LaPrima is especially designed for new plantings and use on golf course fairways, roughs and tees, municipal parks, commercial landscapes and all types of sports fields. This top quality turf-type bermuda grass product is easily planted from seed, allowing for much faster and far less expensive turf-grass establishment, when compared to the popular vegetative bermuda varieties. Certified LaPrima may be overseeded into stands of common or other seeded bermuda varieties to improve density, turf quality and overall turfgrass performance. When a healthier, easier to maintain turf is desired, LaPrima may be overseeded into existing stands of medium textured hybrid or vegetative bermudas.
Fast germination for rapid cover
Consistently high quality turf with uniform growth
Durable and wear tolerant
Uses: Golf courses, tees, fairways and roughs, sports fields, parks and home lawns.

Drake Reveals Dual Album Covers for Nothing Was the Same
He kind of looks like Blue Ivy here, no?
Just as he revealed his upcoming VMAs performance, last night Drake also tweet-announced an updated release date (September 24) for his upcoming album, Nothing Was the Same, and revealed a set of covers. Illustrated by artist Kadir Nelson, the dual images seem to be inspired by "Started From the Bottom" — a young Drizzy (complete with Afro pick) stares into the face of the grown-up rapper.
The cheese factor is certainly high, noted many who took to Twitter to gently rib the cover — comparing it to Brooke Hogan's second album, The Redemption; Toys; the Michael Jackson–Eddie Murphy duet, "Whatzupwitu." The real question here is, who's cuter: Baby Drake or Baby Wayne?

Re : NICU Show
I saw the previews and I've been thinking about watching it, but I'm also scared to try. After having Kylie in the NICU,watching all she went through, watching her die, I just don't know if I can take it. We'll see.
Re : NICU Show
I saw it and was thinking of watching it. Have mixed feeling-watching the Duggars and their preemie made me sad and brought back alot of memories. DH cannot stand to watch anything related to that time of our life. So I am not sure. Hmmm.

If I remember correctly, C3 had two lines - one for those that HAD their pass and could go in when the doors opened and another line for those that NEEDED their pass. Once those individuals got their pass, they just wondered into the mass of people already past them. I thought there was some complaining about the people that needed to pick up their pass, (they got to go straight into the convention afterwards and a lot of people where still streamming in from being wrapped around the block for 1/2 mile) but I am not sure. So FalconClones, you might want to make sure you are in the right line....just in case they handle it the same way at C4.

CagePotato Photo Tribute: The Ever Changing Hairstyle Of Vitor Belfort
(The "t" is for "testosterone." / Photo via realvitorbelfort on Instagram)
By Jon Mariani
Ever since he made his Octagon debut as a thick-necked teenager in 1997, Vitor Belfort has tried out more hairstyles than any other fighter in the UFC besides Chris Leben. After seeing Belfort's brand-new look last night — featuring a cross shaved into the back of his scalp and a braided rat-tail — we figured it was a good time to put together a chronological(-ish) history of the Phenom's hair. Let's begin…

Menaldum (Friesland, Netherlands)
Menaldurn (Menaem), a village in the Dutch province of Friesland, where Leenaert Bouwens baptized 7 persons in 1563-1565 and 81 in 1568-1582. In the 17th century it was the seat of a Mennonite congregation, belonging to the Jan Jacobsz group. About 1623 the district governor made trouble for the Mennonites here because they did not want to have their marriages performed by the magistrate. A Sierck Annes was even punished by having his furniture confiscated. Later on the congregation was called Old Flemish. The small congregation, of which there is no further information, united with the Jan Jacobsz congregation at neighboring Franeker shortly after 1743.

RAMALLAH, West Bank (Reuters) - Israeli forces removed Palestinian protest tents from land adjoining a Jewish settlement in the occupied West Bank on Monday, the second such camp to be torn down in a week.
Palestinian activists had pitched tents near the village of Beit Iksa, northwest of Jerusalem, where residents face difficulty building homes due to Israeli restrictions and may be surrounded by a separation barrier Israel plans for the area.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, widely predicted to win a third term in an election on Tuesday, has pledged to pursue settlement building in the West Bank and in East Jerusalem, occupied land that Israel has annexed in a move not recognised internationally.
"Israeli border police evacuated the structures, removing some 20 people who were there and confiscating the tents and equipment," an Israeli security source told Reuters.
Activists from the camp, which they dubbed Bab al-Karama, "the Gateway of Dignity", vowed to continue pitching tents on areas they say are threatened by Israeli settlement expansion.
"The demolition of Bab al-Karama does not mean the end of our stand. Activists will again occupy the site on which the village was built and they will rebuild their tents when the opportunity arises," activist Nabil Hababa said.
Last week, many of the same protesters were evicted by Israeli forces from a protest camp in an area outside Jerusalem known as E1, earmarked by Israel for new settlements that Palestinians say will split the West Bank in two.
The Israeli Haaretz newspaper reported on Monday that Israel's Defence Ministry planned to change the proposed route of its separation barrier to prevent Palestinian access to the E1 area. Speaking to Reuters, a ministry official denied the report.
Netanyahu announced plans late last year to expand settlements after Palestinians won de-facto statehood recognition at the United Nations General Assembly.
"The days of bulldozers uprooting Jews are behind us, not ahead of us," Netanyahu said in a recent interview with Maariv newspaper, referring to past efforts to remove illegal Jewish outposts throughout the West Bank.
About 500,000 Israelis and 2.5 million Palestinians live in the West Bank and East Jerusalem. Direct peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians broke down in 2010.
Most countries view Jewish settlements in areas captured by Israel in the 1967 Middle East war as illegal, and echo concerns voiced by Palestinians that building more settler homes could deny the Palestinians a viable and contiguous state.

'The Islanders nearly spoiled everything by taking advantage of the Sabres' dismal showings in third periods. They entered the final 20 minutes with a lead for the third time in four games, and for the third time they couldn't hold it. The Islanders scored twice in the final 1:34, including the tying goal by Chris Campoli with 2.0 seconds left.'

VANCOUVER — The mild cut he's sporting on the top of his right index finger is Bruins center Patrice Bergeron's latest battle scar from the 2011 Stanley Cup Final.
The veteran was bitten in Wednesday night's Game 1 loss to the Canucks during a first-intermission scrum by forward Alexandre Burrows. Today the winger learned he was not punished — suspended or fined — by the NHL for his actions.
"I'm over it," explained Bergeron today as the Bruins took a day off to regroup after their Game 1 loss. "To be honest with you, I'm looking forward for next game. We've got to get back in the series. Like I said [Wednesday] night, it's the league's decision and I'll let them make the call, make the decision. It's theirs. So I have nothing else to say about it."
While the league claimed there was no "conclusive" evidence, a video widely available online shows Burrows not only accept Bergeron's finger into his mouth, but biting down. The cut is just further evidence.
Nonetheless, Bergeron will battle on with his team down 1-0 in the series. And Burrows will be out on the ice as well for Game 2 Saturday night.
"He's been playing great since the beginning of the season, so we're pretty happy," said Vancouver forward Maxim Lapierre about the lack of a suspension for his teammate.
Burrows is the Canucks' fourth-leading scorer in the playoffs and the third member of their top line alongside Henrik and Daniel Sedin. So Vancouver didn't want to have to play without him.
"We need him out there," said Daniel. "He plays in every situation. [He's a] big part of this team. Obviously we're happy to have him inside the rink."

The Colorado Rapids Under-16 and Under-18 Development Academy teams wrapped up their weekend in Florida at the U.S. Soccer Development Academy Winter Showcase with a 2-1-3 (W-L-T) combined record.
Both teams played a total of three matches from November 30 to December 4 at the Premier Sports Complex in Lakewood Ranch, Fla., against top opponents from the Development Academy while offering college coaches and scouts the opportunity to see talented young players from around the country.
The U-16s impressed observers with a 3-0 victory against the LA Galaxy driven by a brace from Daniel Jimenez. They also defeated New Jersey's Players Development Academy, 2-1, and closed out the Showcase with a 1-1 tie against the San Jose Earthquakes.
"I think the U-16s really used this a coming out party for them," said Academy Director Brian Crookham. "They were very focused and the team has progressed tremendously in the time they've been together this fall. I think it was a great way to end the 2012 segment and it gives them a great platform to go forward in 2013."
The U-18s faced a challenge going into the showcase, drawing the top two teams in the Development Academy in the San Jose Earthquakes and Players Development Academy (tied for first with 6-1-0 (W-L-T) records). The 18s came out with three defeats, including a 2-0 loss to the LA Galaxy.
Both the U-16 and U-18 teams will now continue their winter break in the U.S. Soccer Development Academy season, returning to action on Saturday, March 2 against Texans SC Houston in Texas.
Launched in 2007, the U.S. Soccer Development Academy is a growing partnership between U.S. Soccer and the top youth clubs around the country to provide the best youth players with an environment designed to foster a professional attitude and produce the next generation of National Team players.

Accomplishment: Speaker of the Senate
Major: Art: Visual Communication, English
Minor: Mathematics
House: Shalom
Antonia Davidson says that she found Graceland "by accident."
"I went to a college fair and Graceland was just another booth. I filled out an information card, just like I did with every other university, and moved on," said Antonia.
Yet, while Graceland started out as one of many schools, it slowly began to emerge as a real contender when she applied for Graceland's Honors Program.
"[My Honors application] asked to think in ways other colleges weren't challenging me to think. It was intriguing," said Antonia.
So Antonia made the decision to attend one of Graceland's Academic Honors' Days. After interviewing with Honors Director Bob Mesle, as well as a panel of Honors Students, Antonia knew she liked what she saw—and so did the Honors Program. By the time she was offered the prestigious Honors Scholarship, Antonia's mind was made up—she was Graceland-bound.
Three years later, Honors remains an integral part of Antonia's Graceland experience; however, Antonia isn't a one-subject woman—her reach branches out far beyond her Honors requirements. Antonia's involvement includes Outreach International, the Association of Computing Machinery, the campus newspaper, The Tower, where she's a writer, the Art Student Society and perhaps most notably, her current position as Graceland's Speaker of the Senate. (Hear Antonia talk about her work as Speaker here.)
"The leadership opportunities at Graceland are numerous. With our small campus, it means that you really have a wealth of leadership options," said Antonia.
"Graceland doesn′t see a difference between leadership and community. Here, you don′t lead in a vacuum; you lead with other students and with the help of everyone else."
As Speaker of Senate, Antonia says, she's gained experience she can carry on into the professional world. From undergoing leadership training, to practicing her active listening skills, to managing a budget of over $25,000, Antonia has learned what it truly means to become a leader.
"I've figured out how to act as a good representative of my peers and how to help my peers work well as a group. I've also learned the importance of stepping back, so I can teach other people to become a leader. My job isn't just to impart information—it's to impart experience and skills," said Antonia.
And it's not just Antonia's leadership skills that have improved—Antonia says the close connections with her professors have helped her work on her mental health and motivated her to succeed in the classroom.
"Something I love here is that the professors are willing to see you as another scholar, someone worthy of respect. Jerry [Denuccio, Professor of English] asks his students to call him by his first name because his students help him understand literature just as much as he helps them. Students and faculty here have a deep level of respect for each other; it's a two-way relationship," said Antonia.
As Antonia's Graceland experience continues, she is looking forward to the leadership opportunities next year. In the meantime, she hopes to continue her summer internship with a Community of Christ campground.
"Leadership here is so achievable. The professors boost you to take up leadership roles and your peers encourage you along the way. You realize you can do it."
