A 12-year-old boy armed with a shotgun opened fire at a middle school in New Mexico on Tuesday, seriously wounding two students before a staff member persuaded him to put down the firearm, authorities said.
The shooting at Berrendo Middle School in Roswell took place in a gym where students had gathered to stay warm from the frigid weather outside before the start of class, Governor Susana Martinez told reporters.
"The shooter was quickly stopped by one staff member who walked right up to him and asked him to set down the firearm, which he did," Martinez said. CNN quoted Martinez as hailing the intervening teacher as a "hero" for his action.
The wounded children were an 11-year-old boy, who students said had been shot in the face, and a 13-year-old girl, whose condition was serious but improved after surgery. The boy underwent two rounds of surgery and was in critical condition.
The adolescent shooter, who was not identified, remained in police custody on Tuesday night, New Mexico State Police Chief Pete Kassetas said. He had come to school that morning with a 20-gauge sawed-off shotgun concealed in a bag, Kassetas added.
The boy's motive remains unclear, police said, but student Monique Salcido, a friend of the two children who were shot, told CNN he had been bullied at the school.
"I don't want to go to Berrendo anymore because of what happened. Because I'm afraid it's going to happen again," Salcido told CNN.
The shooting was the second to take place at a U.S. middle school in three months, after a 12-year-old boy opened fire at his middle school in Sparks, Nevada, in October, killing a teacher and wounding two students before killing himself.
It comes amid a contentious national debate on gun control that intensified after a gunman shot dead 20 students and six staff members at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut, in December 2012. Following that attack, President Barack Obama called for sweeping new gun control measures.
Most of Obama's proposals were defeated in Congress, but his administration proposed new regulations this month aimed at clarifying restrictions on gun ownership for the mentally ill and bolstering a database used for firearms background checks.
Prayer vigil
Around 1,500 people attended a prayer vigil at a Roswell convention center on Tuesday evening, where they sang and hugged each other. Others expressed sympathy and support for the city of some 48,000 residents in southeastern New Mexico through social media websites and elsewhere.
Governor Martinez, speaking at the vigil, praised the intervening teacher, whom she identified as "Mr. Masterson".
"He walked right up to him and asked him to put down the firearm," Martinez said. " stood there and allowed a gun to be pointed right at him."
The Roswell Independent School District's website listed John Masterson as an eighth-grade social studies teacher.
Sixth-grade student Anyssa Vegara said she had been talking to a security guard when she heard a shot.
"I turned around and all I saw was someone on the floor with their arm bleeding," Vegara told the Albuquerque Journal.
The wounded students were taken to a local hospital after the incident and then flown by helicopter to University Medical Center in Lubbock, Texas, about 150 miles (241 km) east of Roswell, as the facility was better equipped to handle the most severely injured patients, said hospital spokesman Eric Finley.
At a news conference late Tuesday, Martinez identified the girl as Kendal Sanders and said she was recovering from a wound to the shoulder. She did not identify the 11-year-old boy, saying his family had requested privacy at a difficult time.
"He is in critical condition and they want to focus on their son," Martinez said. The boy had sustained injuries to his face and neck, she said.
Earlier reports had put the wounded boy's age at 12 or 14 and the girl's at 12.
On Tuesday evening, police were serving three search warrants in the case, Kassetas said, examining the boy's locker, a bag and the boy's home, a residence in the Roswell area.
"We got some preliminary information that possibly some of the students were warned by the suspect prior to the shooting not to go to school," he said, adding this was not confirmed.
Kassetas said the shooter was not believed to have had help from others. He also praised the intervening teacher.
"It's one thing for an armed state police officer to enter the school and do his or her job. It's another thing for a teacher... to intervene in a situation like this," he said.
The school, which was placed on lockdown after the 7:30 a.m. shooting, serves students in grades six through eight. Teachers had received training on how to react to a shooter.
A staff member at the school received "very minor injuries" and declined medical care, Martinez said. It was unclear if that was the same person who asked the boy to give up his shotgun or how the staff member was injured.
"I can stand here and tell you that in the 10 seconds that transpired from the time of this thing starting until the teacher had control of the weapon, there was no cowardice," said school district Superintendent Tom Burris.
Classes at Berrendo Middle School are canceled on Wednesday and will resume on Thursday, Burris said.

State Director Denny DeWitt reports from Juneau on the small-business agenda for the legislative week ending May 12.
"I have never understood why it is greed to want to keep the money you've earned, but not greed to want to take somebody else's money." — Thomas Sowell, economist.
House Bill 115, the income tax bill, was defeated on the Senate floor May 12 on a vote of 4 yes and 15 no. NFIB strongly opposed the bill. It was a Key Vote for NFIB, which delivered its notice to all senators.
Contraceptive Coverage
House Bill 25, mandating 12-month contraceptive coverage in insurance plans, passed out of the House Finance Committee May 12. NFIB continues its opposition to mandated of any kind. During committee discussions, Rep. Tammie Wilson continued to reference NFIB's opposition and reasons for that opposition. The bill passed on a 7-4 vote.
Unemployment Insurance Benefits
House Bill 142, which would increase the unemployment insurance benefit and tax, was heard and held in the House Finance Committee. NFIB informed the committee of its opposition.
Conference Committees
The Legislature has scheduled a conference committee on the budget bills, scheduled a joint session to consider the Gov. Bill Walker's appointments, and scheduled conference committee on Senate Bill 26 dealing with the permanent fund dividend and earnings reserve. It is likely that the Legislature may extend for the allowable 10 days beyond the constitutional 121-day limit, but the end may be in sight.

|Native heap leaks?
|Wed, 04 May 2011 18:50:22 GMT
Hi, We are using Cassandra 0.6.12 in a cluster of 9 nodes. Each node is 64-bit, has 4 cores and 4G of RAM and runs on Ubuntu Lucid with the stock 2.6.32-31-generic kernel. We use the Sun/Oracle JDK. Here's the problem: The Cassandra process starts up with 1.1G resident memory (according to top) but slowly grows to 2.1G at a rate that seems proportional to the write load. No writes, no growth. The node is running other memory-sensitive applications (a second JVM for our in-house webapp and a short-lived C++ program) so we need to ensure that each process stays within certain bounds as far as memory requirements go. The nodes OOM and crash when the Cassandra process is at 2.1G so I can't say if the growth is bounded or not. Looking at the /proc/$pid/smaps for the Cassandra process it seems to me that it is the native heap of the Cassandra JVM that is leaking. I attached a readable version of the smaps file generated by [1]. Some more data: Cassandra runs with default command line arguments, which means it gets 1G heap. The JNA jar is present and Cassandra logs that the memory locking was successful. In storage-conf.xml, DiskAccessMode is mmap_index_only. Other than that and some increased timeouts we left the defaults. Swap is completely disabled. I don't think this is related but I am mentioning it anyways: overcommit [2] is always-on (vm.overcommit_memory=1). Without that we get OOMs when our application JVM is fork()'ing and exec()'ing our C++program even though there is enough free RAM to satisfy the demands of the C++ program. We think this is caused by a flawed kernel heuristic that assumes that the forked process (our C++ app) is as big as the forking one (the 2nd JVM). Anyways, the Cassandra process leaks with both, vm.overcommit_memory=0 (the default) and 1. Whether it is the native heap that leaks or something else, I think that 1.1G of additional RAM for 1G of Java heap can't be normal. I'd be grateful for any insights or pointers at what to try next.

News in from Brownbacks Racing:
The third round of the Hope sponsored 2010 XC Race Series at Lee Quarry, Rossendale, Lancashire is almost here. Race 3 on the Sunday 25th July will see the most radical course yet, we are not disclosing the change but expect to see the Lee Quarry quarry trails from a different angle!
The recent rain will not trouble the all-weather course and the forecast for the weekend is for good racing weather yet again. The racing so far has been tight with no rider dominating the top step of the podium yet, leaving the series competition with the great prizes from Hope wide open. The prize sponsorship means we have one of the best prize lists around (thanks sponsors) with plenty of "spot" prizes for those who "entertain" the Brownback's team.
The women's categories sponsored by Bardon Aggregates and Astounding Adventures are taking off with a strong entry in race 2 and some quality riding, with prize parity with the men this has to be the race series to enter. In the trade competition Big Bear Bikes are trying hard to grab the trophy from under the nose of Leisure Lakes and their Director Sportif Matt Chester with Wheelbase strengthening their entry to try and retain the trophy. This "just for fun" competition for bike shops/ trade is hotting up and is lining up for a tight conclusion.
The racing is not just for the fit and the able our Astounding Adventures "Have-a-Go" categories are aimed at people who just want to have-a-go. The course has a lot less hills and does not involve any of the big bermy sections. With great prizes including a training course courtesy of the sponsor this is a great way to get into racing. The race is shorter with the later start and it is open for all. We also have a race on the same course for those with their 15th or 16th birthday's this year with great prizes from Polaris Apparel.
You can pre-enter if you are quick and entry on the day is available, registration opens at 08:30 and the racing starts at 10:00. It's all over by 13:00 including the prize giving.
Travel: There are full directions to the venue on the Brownback's website HERE but bear in mind there are roadworks on the A56 and it is signed as being closed on the 25th. Local diversions are in place and will add 5-10 minutes to journey times.
The rules! Remember there is no outside assistance allowed, this includes passing your mate bottles/ gels/ food. We have a simple philosophy of self sufficiency and "you start with it you finish with it" so no littering either please.
BC points: There are licence points for our Racers and Racing Diva's in "Sport" or one of the age related categories. You do not need BC membership or a licence to race, if you do have one, make sure you bring your licence on the day.
Buff Marshals: as usual we need plenty of people on the day to make sure everything runs safely if you want to be part of the action let us know. Course setup starts at 07:15 and marshals are needed from 08:45, riders can get a free race by helping with course setup. You get really well looked after and our eternal gratitude (and a free Buff, food and drink, £50 cash draw and other goodies). Contact firstname.lastname@example.com to let us know you are coming.
Other race dates: 22nd August, 26th September

Boston Scholarship FAQ's
- Are there any scholarships available outside of GCTS that I might apply for?
- Is my grant or scholarship taxable?
Boston Scholarship Answers
- Q:Are there any scholarships available outside of GCTS that I might apply for?
Funding from outside sources is possible. Gordon-Conwell students receive scholarships and grants from a number of foundations and organizations. Awards can depend on denomination, undergraduate school affiliation, scholastic ability, previous vocation, etc. The Financial Aid may assist by certifying educational cost for the potential recipients of these funds, but the student must take the initiative to make inquiries and apply to outside sources. We suggest students make themselves aware of other sources through inquiries to denominational headquarters, churches, libraries, etc. To view some suggested outside sources, visit our Funding from Other Sources page.Top
- Q:Is my grant or scholarship taxable?
Possibly. If you receive grant or scholarship funds that will exceed tuition and fees you should read Publication 970, "Scholarships and Fellowships" published by the Internal Revenue Service. This publication can be downloaded from the IRS website.Top

The 10th annual Holiday Bazaar held at All Saints Catholic Church was chockful of vendors with a variety of handcrafted items. Vendor Debbie Nall assists customer Judy Walters who is making a decision on which birdhouse to purchase for her feathered friends.
Once upon a time the Christmas buying season began after Thanksgiving, and that seemed to work out for everybody. Then it began to seep over into November, earlier and earlier, and now we barely get past Halloween before the Christmas sales start.
And then, this year, it seems that Thanksgiving day itself was sacrificed. Perhaps this began a year or two ago and I simply didn't notice, but now it is hard to miss. It seems that every major chain of stores now starts "Black Friday" on Thursday.
Risen Lord Church steeple returns
Risen Lord Lutheran Church's steeple has returned to Taylorsville. This steeple has had quite a journey from its beginnings in Campbellsville to its first home in Fairfax County, Va., then to Risen Lord Lutheran in Taylorsville and back to Campbellsville for repairs and returning just in time for the 2012 Christmas Tour.
I recall, as a little girl, frequently opening my closet door to pull out toys or clothes — as little girls do — and getting sidetracked by a large, heavy hunk of metal laying flat in my closet floor.
The hunk of metal was inscribed with my grandfather's name, date of birth and death, and years of service in the United States Armed Forces.
He was not killed in action, but, as a veteran of World War I, he died before I was born. Before my parents were married, I believe.
When you think you have heard it all, something new or different surfaces to rock the boat.
This being near the end of the year, we are now in the middle of deer hunting season. I got a call about an issue in a remote area of our county where hunters were taking what they wanted from their kill, and leaving the remainder to rot on the edge of the roadway.
I see roadkill almost daily on our main roads, but for someone to leave a carcass on the edge of a road after stripping what they wanted to harvest is really stepping over the line.
Don't forget the Christmas Tour this Saturday from 3 to 8 p.m. Tickets are $15 and are available for purchase at The Red Scooter, 32 E. Main St.
Stops on this year's Christmas Tour are:
•Lillie and Edwin Shelburne's Home, 2891 Taylorsville Road, Bloomfield
•Joyce Nalley's Home, 76 Savannah Court
•The Red Scooter, 32 E. Main St.
•T & R Antiques, 46 E. Main St.
•The Joshua Tree Bookstore, 51 E. Main St.
•Creekside Florist and Gifts, 57 E. Main St.

I know that most people don't like to disable all of their addons to test just Carbonite, but there is a way to not have to do that and still be able to test with only Carbonite enabled.
Completely exit WoW back to your desktop, then rename both your "Interface" and "WTF" folders. Nothing fancy, just adding an underscore (shift + -) after the name works for me. Then start WoW and log on to your account. Sign into a character if you wish, but then exit the game completely back to your desktop. Now, install Carbonite to your new "Interface\AddOns\" folder. Start WoW back up, and see if Carbonite still works incorrectly.
To get your addons back, just rename, or delete them if you want, the current "Interface" and "WTF" folders (maybe add a "=" after the names) and then rename the original folders back to their original names.
I have this set up in my WoW install for just this reason. If WoW (or an addon) starts acting oddly, it's just easier than disabling and re-enabling over a hundred addons on a character to see if it is a game or addon issue.
By-the-way, you can keep the new folders "pristine" by going into the "\Interface\AddOns\" folder and deleting the Carbonite folders, then going to your "
Path to your WoW folder
\WTF\Account\ACCOUNT NAME\SavedVariables\
" folder and deleting the "
" and "
" files. If you really want to keep it default, you can also go to your "
Path to your WoW folder
\WTF\Account\ACCOUNT NAME\ServerName\CharacterName\SavedVariables\
" folder for the character you used to test with, and delete the "
" and "
" files there. Those files only contain the flight points known by that character, though, and iirc they are built (after deletion, at least) the first time that character visits a Flight Master. It certainly can't hurt to check and delete them if they are there, though.
Try the above advice, I am using the latest version & all is fine
It is either an old version that you have or an addon clash

Well, it took a year, but here it is: the final installment of my initial 30 for 30 post. A refresher: these are the top 30 forgettable Twins. Once again, "forgettable" in this instance refers only to the players' time in Minnesota. Also, this list is restricted to those players I remember watching or reading about as they played.
5. Glenn Williams 2005: Ever since Corey Koskie left town in 2004, the Twins have been searching for a competent third baseman. One of the earliest attempts at replacing the Canadian cornerstone was an Aussie also-ran named Glenn with two "N's." Twice Mr. Williams was considered by Baseball America to be a top 100 prospect. Of course that was 10 years before the Twins got a hold of him. But, hey, he did win a silver medal with Team Australia in the 2004 Olympics, so he was worth a shot.
In what would be a sign of things to come, 2005 saw seven different men man the hot corner. While that included memorable names like Cuddyer and Punto, there were also 570-plus innings out of guys like Terry Tiffie, Juan Castro, Luis Rodriguez and Glenn Williams. Twins fans in 2005 were even lucky enough to see one MLB inning of third base Most Forgettable Twins runner-up Michael Ryan played.
As far as that crop of conceivable Koskie replacements goes, Williams fit somewhere in the middle, production-wise. He hit .425 in 43 plate appearances, including one double and one steal. Defensively, however, he was simply not the answer the Twins were looking for. Williams would spend two more years at Rochester until he retired in 2007.
4. Chris Heintz 2005-07: When I look back at the career of this backup catcher who spent parts of three seasons with the Twins I have just one thought: "This guy spent parts of three seasons with the Twins?" Heintz, who is probably known by most baseball fans as PGA golfer Bob Heintz' brother, was drafted by the White Sox in 1996. It wasn't until failing to break through with both the Cardinals and the Pirates and spending a year in Rochester that the 30-year-old catcher finally made his major league debut.
Heintz played eight games in 2005 and two in 2006, collecting five hits and six strikeouts. In 2007, with Joe Mauer only playing 109 games and Mike Redmond being a 36-year-old Mike Redmond, the Twins thought it wise to give some other catching options a try. While that search for a capable number three guy lead to the 3-for-3 debut of Jose Morales and the return of Matt LeCroy, the majority of that extra time came in the form of 24 games for Mr. Heintz. Chris performed about as well as could be expected, hitting .250 in 61 plate appearances. After being released following the 2007 season, Heintz was given one last shot in the form of a minor league deal with the Orioles, where he once again batted .250 in 46 games for the Norfolk Tide.
3. J.D. Durbin 2004: Durbin was selected by the Twins in the second round of the 2000 draft. Born in Portland, Oregon and a graduate of Coronado High School in Scottsdale, Arinzona…you know what…no. I'm not even going to go over this guy's background. There is one reason and one reason only for J.D. Durbin to appear on this or any other list: The Nickname. Yes, the guy was considered a prospect at one point. I remember a certain aura of excitement around his 2004 debut as a September call-up. It seems like there was something about having command of his fastball and pitching to contact, I'm not sure. All I can say for certain is that he had a nickname. Not only that, but he gave himself this nickname. I think that's the real reason that I will never forget J.D. Durbin no matter how innocuous his actual career may seem. It takes a certain level of self-importance to dub yourself "The Real Deal."
2. Michael Nakamura 2003: Remember all that hype about Tsuysoshi Nishioka? Remember how everyone was excited about the Twins picking up their first Japanese-born player? Remember how eventually someone quietly pointed out that he wasn't actually the first, but didn't make a big deal out of who the first was? That would be this man.
A relief pitcher, Nakamura was born in Nara, Japan, went to school in Melbourne, Australia, and split his 31 major league games between the Twins and Blue Jays. While his 7.82 ERA is pretty ugly, he did pick up one save, so kudos to him.
1. Carlos Pulido 1994/2003-04: Carlos Pulido is a testament to determination. Signed as a 17-year-old free agent by the Twins in 1989, the left-handed reliever dominated his first three seasons of minor league ball, posting ERAs in the 2's and regularly striking out 10+ batters per inning. Things started to slow down a little starting in 1992, which is coincidentally the same year he began to make the shift to starter. The ERA rose, the K/9 dropped, but still, in 1994 he made his MLB debut, starting in 14 games and appearing in 19. It wasn't an overly impressive rookie campaign, a 5.98 ERA and more walks than strikeouts meant that he wasn't quite ready for the big show.
Throw in an arm injury and Pulido wouldn't pitch in the big leagues again until 2003. That's right, he went nine years in between major league appearances. The Twins seemingly gave up on him, allowing the Cubs to sign him in 1996. Despite pitching well enough to make the jump from AA to AAA, Pulido wasn't a priority for Chicago as he was allowed to sign with the Montreal Expos for the 1997 season. After another one year minor league stay, Pulido moved on to Mets organization where he stayed until 1998. In 1999 he pitched independent ball. 2000 and 2001 were spent with the Orix Blue Wave in Japan. 2002 meant a trip south of the border and a pretty good performance with the Oaxaca Guerreros.
The Twins, seemingly impressed, not only with Pulidos numbers with the Guerreros, but also with his warrior spirit, brought him back for one of the most under-publicized inspirational stories in baseball history. After nine years away and back with the only major league team he had ever played for, Pulido had a great 2002 with Rochester. The Twins rewarded him in 2003 with an August 29th call up against the Rangers. Pulido pitched well enough to get another shot in 2004, but not well enough to become earn a full-time spot on the roster. Released by the Twins again in 2005, at 33, even with his MLB career most likely over Pulido still wasn't ready to quit. He went back to Mexico where he played two more years before finally retiring. It should be no surprise that immediately after his playing days came to an end, he signed on as a pitching coach for the Rangers' A team.
The personification of persistence, Pulido's 32-game playing career spanned 15 years.

Some facts about water barrel systems include the fact that they vary greatly in complexity, come in a wide variety of sizes, can reduce water consumption and can be used for many different garden and household purposes. Homeowners should also know some of the pitfalls concerning rain barrel systems, including bacteria growth and chemical contamination.
Water barrel systems catch rainwater and store it for future use. This serves as an alternative to municipal water systems. These systems can vary greatly in complexity, ranging from simple barrels designed to provide some extra water for the garden to large systems designed to provide water for the entire home.
Simple barrel systems usually consist of one or more barrels connected to the bottom of a downspout. Barrels can be made out of plastic, fiberglass, wood, metal or stone and usually include covers to keep mosquitoes and debris out of the barrel. Rainwater runs down the downspout and collects in the barrel, and it can usually be sufficient for watering the yard.
Complex systems involve additional components such as special roofing, gutters and storage tanks. They also usually have pumps to feed the water into home plumbing systems. Because rainwater is often exposed to chemicals and tanks serve as breeding grounds for bacteria, complex filtration systems are also important components of these systems.
Water barrel systems can serve many different purposes. They are handy for watering garden plots and lawns, and large systems can supplement household needs such as cleaning and laundry.
Rain barrel systems do have a few pitfalls. An important thing to consider is the fact that rainwater can be exposed to air pollution or bacteria. Rainwater is not drinkable unless it is heavily filtered. In some places, filtration cannot remove pollution. Homeowners who plan to drink the water from their barrel systems should regularly test the water to ensure that it is safe to drink.
Collecting rainwater is restricted or regulated in some areas. It is important to check state and municipal regulations before installing water barrel systems.

TRENTON — A challenge to Gov. Chris Christie's move to call a special election in October to fill the U.S. Senate seat of the late Frank Lautenberg will be considered by the state Supreme Court.
Somerset County Democratic chairwoman Peg Schaffer, who has said she's not acting on the party's behalf, said she's contacted the court to let staff know the challenge is on its way.
Court spokeswoman Winnie Comfort confirmed the justices will hear the matter to determine whether they should rule on the issue or let the appellate decision stand.
Schaffer has argued the law requires Christie should designate the special Senate election to be held the same time as his own gubernatorial election three weeks later. By holding it Oct. 16, Schaffer contends, voters will be confused and will wind up staying away from the polls, creating disenfranchisement.
But a three-judge appellate panel on Thursday said Christie was within his authority to schedule the election for October. The court said there is no evidence a separate election would generate voter confusion.
Today, Schaffer said she's challenging appellate decision on a couple points.
"The court got it wrong on the statutory interpretation," she said.
She said the timing of Lautenberg's death, on June 3, does not warrant a separate election.
In addition,, she said she will argue that holding this special election so close to the November general election will put a burden on county boards of elections, who oversee the voting booths and may not have time to handle any recounts or recalibrations of the equipment should there be any issues in the October race.
Christie spokesman Michael Drewniak said nothing has changed since the appellate panel rejected Schaffer's challenge.
"Gov. Christie followed the law as established by the legislature and ensured New Jersey voters would have a voice and a choice - in both a primary and general election - in selecting the next U.S. Senator for New Jersey. That's what the law provides and the way it should be," Drewniak said.
• Court sides with Christie, rejects challenge to October special election
• Lautenberg's death turns N.J. political scene upside down
• Christie outlines special election for Lautenberg's U.S. Senate seat

The Club seeks to provide a soccer experience for children who can make the required commitment to a Travel team. The expected commitment from our players is:
· Prompt, timely, and continuous attendance for two weekly practices (1.5 hours each) during the spring and fall months. Attendance at winter training sessions offered by the club and any scheduled team practices should also be prioritized. Players are expected to arrive 5-10 minutes before each practice begins, fully dressed (including shin guards and cleats) and ready to work.
· The agreement to play on the team from September through June.
· Regular and timely attendance at Sunday soccer games in the fall and the spring. In most cases, there are nine to ten games each season. Players are expected to arrive well before the games for warm-up at the time set by Professional Trainers, and to be fully dressed (including shinguards and cleats), with a ball and water, and ready to play.
· For elementary school players (grades 3-5), participation in the Village Soccer Recreation Program is mandatory. Travel team practices will not conflict with Rec games.
Once your child's team placement is announced, you have 24-hours to accept the spot by completing payment in full. If you do not register within that period, the spot will be offered to the next ranked player.
Once paid, registration fees are NON-REFUNDABLE*. Exceptions are made only if you move out of Scarsdale (and your child stops attending Scarsdale schools), or if your child is injured and unable to play soccer .
If your child decides over the summer that he/she doesn't want to play soccer, EVEN IF IT IS THE DAY THAT YOU HAVE REGISTERED YOUR CHILD, you will lose your entire yearly registration fee. Please do not ask us to make an exception. The club provides a spot for your child, and that spot lasts a year. QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS POLICY SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO OUR PRESIDENT at firstname.lastname@example.com .
* Please note that for non-Scarsdale residents playing on Scarsdale teams, non-residency is not grounds for a refund.
Please make sure you consider whether your child is ready and WANTS TO make the commitment to travel soccer. Travel soccer is about learning to play soccer. It cannot be dependent on being on a team with friends, or being on a specific level of team.
Playing Outside the Club: The Westchester Soccer League and Eastern New York Soccer rules prohibit players from playing for more than one US Youth Soccer team. If your child is registered to play with another team for the upcoming seasonal year you cannot register for our teams without first obtaining proper releases. Moreover, you cannot register for another team once registered for a Scarsdale team without proper releases. If you have any question about whether your child is eligible to play with Scarsdale or any other team or you need transfer paperwork, please email firstname.lastname@example.com to obtain clearance BEFORE registering. Transfers will not be granted unless a player's financial commitment to this club have been satisfied. If you choose to leave the club after paying, you will not get any refund. Moreover, in the event your child is dual registered without obtaining proper releases and must withdraw from a Scarsdale team as a result we will not refund any fees.

- Wedding: September 2015
And what a deal it was! I was out shopping with my mom today and we were looking at wedding stuff (more just for fun the wedding is still far enough away we don't "need" anything right now) and we stumbled across a deal too good to pass up! We found amazing wedding invites (classic neutral colours, exactly what I was looking for) on sale for…. $12 a box! They were regular price $60 for a box of 30 invites, we'll need about 80 (including invite, RSVP card, envelopes, a sleeve for everything to go in) and were reduced to $25 then an extra 50% off!! I was originally expecting to spend about $300 or so on invites since we were going to custom make them but these were perfect for the style of wedding we're having and the colours we'll be using. So now we have invitations signficantly under budget (just under $40 total cost)! What an awesome start to my wedding planning 🙂
Have any other bees found some deals that were too amazing to pass up lately?

Minyan Mailbag: The Fed's Ideology
In the meantime the music continues and no one knows when it will stop.
Prof Succo-
Thanks for your last post; it serves to remind me of the manipulation going on. One example: Prof Sedacca's vibe yesterday concerning the fact that "magically" the 10-year yield should rise in tune with a 25 bp FOMC nudge.
The problem to me seems that yes the Fed and every other central banker can pump out debt BUT as we have already seen, the public, the consumer cannot take on more. Governments and other institutions cannot force more debt on a consumer that is already being squeezed to the hilt, perhaps more credit contraction, weak retail and housing numbers will be the only thing to wake people up to the fact that "things ain't good"...the consumer is obligated to pay their debts, Governments and other "institutions" do not....at least not yet(?).
Minyan Steve
I just had a "discussion" with Scott about Fed ideology.
It is highly improbable to me that the Fed genuinely believes that there is "excess savings" in the world, that they do not see anything wrong or untenable about "printing money and building debt." I feel that they know that the game must end at some point, but through hubris can put off and manage that end.
Scott believes that central banks actually believe that there is nothing wrong with their policy and that they think printing money is a viable strategy.
We both come out the same, vehemently against their hubris however it is founded. Debasing currency has a cumulative effect: adding debt and adding over-capacity, which is the problem they are trying to correct. It is like giving cocaine to a cocaine addict to make him feel better.
In the meantime the music continues and no one knows when it will stop.

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Los Angeles appears poised to take another step toward the 2028 Olympics, despite questions about future costs.
The City Council on Friday is expected to endorse documents at the heart of LA's plan to stage the 2028 Summer Games. The contract outlines the financial responsibility of putting on the games, although a budget has not been completed.
The vote will take place less than two weeks after the city announced an agreement with international Olympic leaders that will open the way for Los Angeles to host the 2028 Games, while ceding the 2024 Games to rival Paris.
The 11-year wait time comes with millions of dollars in financial sweeteners, but also uncertainty about future costs.
The deal must also be endorsed by the U.S. Olympic Committee board of directors, and the International Olympic Committee.

ProfitBricks has released its Foundation Program for startup companies throughout the country.
The infrastructure-as-a-service provider first unveiled the initiative to firms in New England in December.
The ProfitBricks Foundation Program targets startups with at least one office in the United States and revenue of less than $1 million per year. The program gives them 20 percent off their ProfitBricks IaaS services for one year and provides access to a ProfitBricks cloud service for one year at no cost.
"Startups demand a cost-effective cloud computing alternative and ProfitBricks is answering that call," said ProfitBricks USA CEO Bob Rizika. "We are ready to give startups nationwide the additional incentive to get up and running faster."
ProfitBricks launched its referral program in January and also said it is seeking to add VARs to its indirect channel.

Been a busy week already on the mashup front:
- Dion Hinchcliffe made some good observations about creating great mashups and why the growth of the mashup ecosystem might be being held back. One of the factors he cites is lack of good tools support. Ning is one of the few contenders thus far, but competition is coming soon.
- Pete Cashmore points-out how successful Frappr has been. The mapping meets social networking site has been able to ride the success of blogs and the MySpace generation to become a rare maps mashup getting high Alexa ratings.
- And Julian Bond has been working on his Skype to Google Maps mashup. In this post he gives some valuable insights into how he's been developing this. One that struck me were the optimizations around how slowly Google Maps render once there more than about 50 points on a map. This is one of the user experience killers for a surprising number of maps mashups where sometimes it takes literally minutes for the page to display.

Michelle Oswell reports that she can't get into Sakai; J. Otto will look into the problem.
The Order Subteam met for six hours to document RUcore, NJVid, and the Library Catalog workflows; K. Ananthan was business analyst and J. Maguire was reporter. Minutes were just distributed; we will extract workflow and test it. In the course of discussion the group identified some workflow gaps and questions (both philosophical and administrative) it wished to discuss in a larger policy-making group. The Media Team discussed who should be involved in this meeting. J. Otto will email G. Agnew and T. Izbicki to request a meeting with them (including Tom in his role as both AUL sponsor and CSC chair), as well as R. Marker (as Repository Collections Manager), as well as K. Hartman and L. Mullen (as LRC co-chairs). The Order Subteam can continue on other workflows while it awaits answers to these questions.
M. Oswell drafted a document indicating elements, notifications, and routing for proposed online order forms. The Media Team envisions fillable forms linking from a splash page. G. Smulewitz will send elements required for ebooks. J. Otto will send requirements for Media and Music materials. LRC, the New Brunswick Collections Group, Newark/Camden selectors, and others will need to vet the later draft.
Jane and Jane reported to Cabinet on NJVid, August 16, 2011. RUL has not subscribed to Learning on Demand. In terms of the Locally Produced category, the Denda collection is already there, so won't be removed, but nothing else will be added; this feature serves libraries without their own repositories. For RUL, it would require double-cataloging of materials already available in RUcore. The Media Team walked through the NJVid interface, discussing recently added functionalities and possible change proposals. J. Otto will request the following changes from Sujay at NJVid:
According to Sujay (8/29/11 email to J. Otto), NJVid is working on branding to customize the homepage for each institution. The checkbox selection "Show only the content I can access" could be enabled by default on all pages. He will demo this to Otto before it goes live (planned for mid-September). J. Otto will forward S. Daniel's email to the group.
The group reviewed J. Otto's document "Four Ways to Find RUL Streaming Video." J. Otto will make minor changes and distribute to the group. J. Sloan will assess where else this document can be made available, including linking from Stephanie Bartz's Library Catalog User Guide, the "How Do I ..." page, emailing to RU-Everyone, and her own Lib Guide.
J. Abraham has also created html code for a Library Catalog search box that enables limits by streaming (using type=VIDEOSTR-N). J. Otto expressed concern that the pulldown options don't match those in other Library Catalog search boxes. Another issue is that databases of streaming video are not retrieved in this search. If cataloging standards permit it, Jane will follow up with Chris and Bob re: the repercussions of changing the item type to VIDEOSTR-N for databases of streaming video. The group also discussed G. Agnew's proposal of a dynamic report of all streaming video. This didn't seem that useful, since the number of streaming titles (over three thousand) is too large for an effective browse title search.
There was a brief discussion of various means by which video conferences (including the Understanding 9/11 and the Hungarian Media conference) are making it into the workflow, and how notification should be received. M. Gallagher and J. Otto will be meeting today with I. Beard to further discuss video conference proceedings issues.
M. Gallagher will report on these at the next Media Team meeting.
J. Otto announced that the Cyberinfrastructure Steering Committee (CISC) is considering a new procedure for handling licenses, permissions and other administrative documents.
J. Otto announced the October 20 Faculty Forum on Video in the Curriculum organized by J. Otto, J. Sloan, Stacey Carton, and Matt Gallagher. This is to solicit teaching faculty perspectives on how they identify and use video, its impact on teaching and scholarship, where they obtain video content, and how the Libraries might support increased faculty use of video. E. Stec will invite Dr. Gregory Moorehead, Michelle will contact the Dance Department. G. Agnew may wish to contact the Graduate School of Education.
Some selectors have requested a way to be notified, as well as check status, of streaming videos made available in the Catalog through record sets. Currently, Carla Zimmerman notifies M.B. Weber, Melissa De Fino and J. Otto when a record set has been loaded, and M.B. Weber announces to the selector's listserv. Carla and Melissa both track batch sets, Melissa tracking the books and Carla tracking videos, audios, and scores. One option would be to put a status document on staff web pages, possibly on the collection development page, combining it with Melissa De Fino's list. Many of the batches come as subsets, and it's not always clear which titles we have and which we don't. G. Smulewitz and M.B. Weber will discuss and report at the next Media Team meeting.
J. Otto asked about the Streaming Instructional Videos Working Group, which submitted recommendations to the User Services Council December 3, 2009. J. Otto will post the report on the Sakai site.

Latinos a Race? Census, Groups Try to Figure Out How to Classify Hispanics
After a heated debate over a proposal by the U.S. Census Bureau to reclassify Latinos as a race, Hispanic groups said they are working with the federal agency to figure out whether changes are necessary or not.
The proposal, which would eliminate the need for Hispanics to pick between two races (white or black), drew the ire of groups who insist Hispanics are an ethnicity, not a race. The proposed changes, which were announced last August but would take effect in the 2020 Census, would also end the use of the term "Negro," and offer new ways to identify Middle Easterners.
Angelo Falcon, president of the National Institute for Latino Policy in New York City and a community adviser to the Census, says his group has begun to reach out to various organizations and civil rights groups.
"The idea is to bring these people together," Falcon told Fox News Latino, adding that he thinks the U.S. Census Bureau should base its decision on research. "We want to make sure we have our research [and include] the community and the [think tank] Pew Hispanic Center."
The recommendations to change U.S. Census forms stem from new government research on the best ways to count the nation's demographic groups. But it has faced resistance from some racial and ethnic groups which worry that any kind of wording changes in the high-stakes government count could yield a lower tally for them.
The research is based on an experiment conducted during the 2010 census in which nearly 500,000 households were given forms with the race and ethnicity questions worded differently.
Stacy Gimbel Vidal, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Census Bureau, said the bureau is actively working on the "implementation of the 2010 alternative questionnaire experiment research."
"Many racial and ethnic communities and leaders have been consulted with throughout the design and implementation of the 2010 alternative questionnaire experiment research," she wrote in an e-mail. "This is a part of a continuing process in which we seek feedback from the public and stakeholders openly and uniformly."
The findings show that many people who filled out the traditional form did not feel they fit within the five government-defined categories of race: white, black, Asian, Pacific Islander and American Indian/Alaska Native.
When questions were altered to address this concern, response rates and accuracy improved notably, she said.
Falcon said this is the first time the Census has tried to experiment with how they classify Latinos – and the proposal was the first step in that direction.
"I'm finding many Latino researchers have a problem with that," he said.
He said the Census Bureau also has another problem – Latinos are underrepresented in the agency. He said the lack of Hispanics in the bureau could impact how sensitive it is to the Latino culture.
Vidal said the agency has made a concerted effort to reach out to Latino groups and to better understand the culture. From what she has seen, Hispanics overwhelmingly favor its proposal to reclassify the designation, she said.
"[They] felt it presented equity to the different categories, as each major group received a checkbox, with examples, and a write-in line where detailed responses could be provided," she said.
"Hispanic" has long been defined as an ethnicity and not a race. Because of this terminology, some 18 million Latinos — or roughly 37 percent — used the "some other race" category on their census forms to establish a Hispanic racial identity in 2010.
Vidal said the U.S. Census Bureau faces "many challenges," but it is "committed" to "improving census results by expanding our understanding of how people self-identify their race and Hispanic origin."
"The Census Bureau and the federal statistical system face many challenges," she said. "Including a growing number of population groups who find the current race and ethnic classification system confusing if not irrelevant, to their life experience, or who wish to see their own specific group highlighted on the Census questionnaire."
Some African-Americans in 2010, for instance, criticized a question asking if a person was "black, African American or Negro," saying the government's continued use of the term "Negro" was demeaning and offensive.
"We've been asking the Asian and Black community to get involvement," Falcon said. "We haven't seen anything, any movement."
Nicholas Jones, chief of the racial statistics branch at the Census Bureau, said the government's more recent research found that Latino response rates were similar under both the current and the new proposed format.
Across all race and ethnic groups, the non-response rates dropped notably to 1 percent under the proposed change, compared to non-response rates of roughly 4 to 5 percent with the traditional form.
Falcon said that an important issue is that there should be a more engaging conversation within the Latino community about the way in which the U.S. Census identifies Hispanics.

In February IBA made another successful trip to Washington as part of the 2016 NAB State Leadership Conference.
Sen. Jerry Moran (R-KS), a member of the Senate Commerce and Appropriations Committees, addressed the conference along with FCC Commissioner Michael O'Rielly, who spoke to the enforcement against pirate radio and invited broadcasters to submit to the FCC their input on outdated regulations or burdens imposed on the industry that are no longer necessary. House Energy and Commerce Ranking Member, Rep. Frank Pallone (D-NJ) praised broadcasters' role as 'first informers,' specifically citing radio's lifesaving role during Hurricane Sandy. He addressed legislation he has sponsored to count broadcasters as essential services during emergencies in order to stay on the air.
On February 23rd IBA hosted Members of the Iowa Congressional Delegation at an evening reception at the Newseum in downtown Washington and on Wednesday, February 24 th the IBA board spent the day on Capitol Hill meeting one-on- one with Members of Congress. The upcoming Spectrum Incentive Auction, Advertising Deductibility and Radio Performance Tax were just some of the key issues discussed with the Iowa Delegation and their staff in those meetings.
It is this advocacy on your behalf that is the #1 top priority of the Iowa Broadcasters Association. Thank you for your support.

text: Hi, It started 2 month ago. I personally was not believing when on internet i see any ads saying that "Get Paid by just filling our survey forms" .So i start thinking to check one of the site that was claiming to pay you by just filling online survey forms.So I used our big bro google for assistance and done some research asking to many peoples on different forums and sending emails to that company and when i get convinced that it looks very genuine that How they get paid so they can pay us when we fill there survey forms i joined there site . Actually there is not alot of surverys every month to fill around 4-5 ranging from 4-5$ per survey .I made $50 in two months i do not thinks that is bad for just working 3-4 hours per month. There are no singup survey like u see the most affliate programes offers u to submit ur email id or email and then signup You can earn incentive payments in the following ways: 1. For each survey you qualify for and complete, you earn an average of $3. 2. If you attempt to complete a survey but do not qualify, you enter into our monthly sweepstakes drawing for fifty $10 prizes. From time to time, registered members will receive emails inviting them to participate in a survey currently being conducted. Surveys are conducted for the benefit of the site and its clients who have requested market research for a particular product or service or group of products and/or services within a particular demographic segment or segments of the population. Since most clients will require their surveys to focus on specific demographic groups, not all registered members will be invited to participate in every survey and not all respondents to an email survey invitation will be allowed to complete each survey. Invitations to participate in surveys will be sent out based upon the demographic criteria provided by members during the registration process Here is the link You can use to join https://www.surveysavvy.com?id=3940603&action=join or if you hate me you can use this https://www.surveysavvy.com
