It happened again. Some idiotic newspaper decided to publish the addresses of residents of NY State that own registered guns and the backlash was swift (Via Say Uncle.)
Apparently the narrative that Gun Owners are a bunch of uneducated yahoos afraid of their shadows and incapable of cohesive thinking or basic skills is still alive and well among media-types. Making assumptions like that takes to get really expensive as editors and journalists of The Journal News "serving Westchester, Rockland and Putnam counties since 1850" may be finding out today.
Listen people, we are simple people (not to be confused with simpleton): We don't mess with you, you don't mess with us. You feel the need of inserting a bouquet of purple lilies up your rectum and dance butt-naked to the tune of "I Will Survive"? Go right at it, I don't wanna see it, but feel free to do your interpretative frolic. But if you decide to be a jackass and damage our calm, expect some well deserved and not totally unexpected retribution.
It has been a while that we decided stop being polite and being the punching bag for almost every failure you guys had in life. Time to man up, accept and correct your mistakes on your own. Blaming us and then trying to get cute with journalistic payback used to work when the information flowed only from the top of your ivory tower to the lowlands where we "little people" live. Problem is the Internet became the information ordnance that knocks towers and other assorted elite bastions. And we are good that knocking stuff down.
"Don't tread on me" is not just a catchy slogan in a yellow flag. It is friendly advice.

Rangel Tells State's Delegation That Spitzer Is Too Combative
By DANNY HAKIM and RAYMOND HERNANDEZ
Published: March 9, 2007
Representative Charles B. Rangel used a meeting yesterday between the state's Congressional and legislative leaders in Washington to criticize Gov. Eliot Spitzer's conduct, citing the governor's hostile relationship with labor and hospital groups.
And in an interview afterward, Mr. Rangel suggested that the governor had an anger problem, naming a list of public officials with whom Mr. Spitzer has clashed recently over his proposed budget cuts in health care. He also said that he and other members of the Congressional delegation did not want to be in the middle of a ''food fight'' between the governor and health care groups when the delegation is seeking to prevent federal health care cuts that President Bush has proposed.
''Anger and emotion will not help this delegation in trying to help our constituents,'' said Mr. Rangel, the chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee and, like Mr. Spitzer, a Democrat. ''We refuse to get involved in a food fight when what we need is health care.''
The meeting included members of New York's Congressional delegation, including Senators Charles E. Schumer and Hillary Rodham Clinton, both Democrats, and the leaders of the State Legislature: the Senate majority leader, Joseph L. Bruno, a Republican, and the Assembly speaker, Sheldon Silver, a Democrat.
Also in attendance were leaders of two interest groups that have been locked in a war of words, some of them said via television advertisements, with the governor: Dennis Rivera, president of 1199/S.E.I.U. United Healthcare Workers East, and Kenneth E. Raske, president of the Greater New York Hospital Association.
Mr. Rangel, whose Congressional district includes many Upper Manhattan neighborhoods and parts of the Bronx, expressed dismay about a recent breakfast he attended, where Mr. Spitzer sharply criticized 1199 and the hospital association while officials from both were present. A screen behind the governor at the Manhattan event flashed the words ''Guardians of the Status Quo.''
''Personalizing this very serious budget problem we have only agitates people,'' Mr. Rangel said. ''It doesn't get people to the table in order to resolve the problems.''
Christine Anderson, a spokeswoman for the governor, said the budget included ''historic investments in education and a move to patient centered health care.''
She added, ''No amount of distortive rhetoric or advertising will cause the governor to back down from the core reforms and necessary reality check embodied in this budget.''
The two interest groups have been linking the state and federal cuts in their media campaign, referring to them as the ''Bush-Spitzer'' cuts. But Mr. Rangel said he did not object so much to ''what Spitzer is proposing, it's how he's proposing it.''
Mr. Rangel's comments could increase political pressure on the governor to tone down his confrontational approach, if not scale back his proposed cuts. And Republicans who control the State Senate are trying to make political hay of the issue.
Mrs. Clinton, according to people who were in attendance, did not take sides. But she did joke that if the matter could not be settled now, she would ''fix it'' in 2009.

Wenger rues 'unbelievable' Ramsey dismissal
Arsene Wenger was baffled by an "unbelievable" red card for Aaron Ramsey in Tuesday's goalless draw against Besiktas in Istanbul.
Wales midfielder Ramsey will miss the second leg of the Premier League club's UEFA Champions League play-off with the Turkish side after being shown a second yellow card for pulling Oguzhan Ozyakup's shirt 10 minutes from time.
It was the first time the midfielder had seen red in his club career and Arsenal manager Wenger felt the decision from Serbian referee Milorad Mazic was extremely harsh.
"Both yellow cards for Aaron Ramsey are unbelievable," he told ITV. "When you see the fouls they have made it's not serious. Just not serious."
Arsenal were not at their best, but almost snatched a winner when substitute Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's late shot was tipped onto the post by Besiktas goalkeeper Tolga Zengin.
Frenchman Wenger, who also lost midfielder Mikel Arteta to injury, is optimistic that his side can progress into the group stage for a 17th consecutive season by winning the second leg at the Emirates Stadium next Wednesday.
"It was a difficult game played at a frenetic pace from the first minute to the last." he added.
"We could have won it but they had chances as well, in the first half alone. In the end we didn't lose and hopefully we will make it at home."
Wenger was also encouraged by another assured performance from recent signing Calum Chambers at the heart of his defence.
He said: "I think he was once again very good and very convincing in his performance. He coped with the pressure, won the challenges and played on a pitch that was not easy. He did very well."

Seekonk, MA — Jesse Melberg, last season's Rookie of the Year, started 2012 off with a dominating performance. Melberg led all twenty five laps, cruising to a convincing win after holding off a late challenge from John Robidoux and Bill Chouinard.
In the Nick's Pit Stop Legends, Nick Ladyga held firm in the top spot after passing pole sitter Tom Gray on the second lap, leading every single lap from thereon in to notch another win at Seekonk Speedway. His first since graduating from the SYRA division 3 years ago.
Rich Sprague, the man with the most wins in 2011, won his heat race after trudging through the middle of the pack, leaving SYRA graduate Jason Enos and Alan Bouchard in the dust to pick up the checkered flag. After tech inspection was completed, Devin Miranda and Henry Lavallee were second and third.
Twenty laps was the distance for the SYRA 750 feature. Austin Blais started on the pole and led the way for the first half of the race. On lap eleven, Willy Sanchez charged by the #28, as did last year's SYRA 600 champion Curtis Rolando. Not even a green white checkered finish could stop the #5 of Sanchez, who notched the victory.

Exxon CEO: To Invest over $37B on Capital Projects this Year - CNBC
HOUSTON (Dow Jones Newswires), Oct. 7, 2011
ExxonMobil Chief Executive Rex Tillerson said Thursday the company expects to spend a record $37 billion on capital projects this year, almost 9% more than it has previously said it was planning to invest.
"We are investing over $37 billion this year," Tillerson said during an interview with CNBC. "We will do more in the U.S. if we are given the opportunity to do so."
ExxonMobil, the world's largest publicly traded oil company by market value, in March said it expected to invest about $34 billion this year and between $33 billion and $37 billion annually through 2015.
Separately, Tillerson also said that the strong global oil supply is likely to be the main factor driving the recent decline in oil prices, which are trading about 28% below this year's peak of over $114 a barrel in May. "What we are seeing in the oil price picture is that the supply fundamentals are actually pretty strong right now," Tillerson said. "Demand has been sluggish here in the U.S.; globally [oil demand] is where we expect it to be."
Light, sweet crude for November delivery settled up $2.91, or 3.7%, at $82.59 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. November Brent crude contracts on the ICE Futures Europe exchange were up $3.00, or 2.9%, at $105.73 a barrel.
ExxonMobil's acquisition last year of natural-gas producer XTO Energy for $25 billion was a "recognition of how significant the unconventional resources are going to be," Tillerson said. Exxon Mobil expects unconventional resources, such as shale oil and gas, to increase five-fold in the next five years.
The head of ExxonMobil said the global economy is likely to continue growing but at a slower pace than previously anticipated. "We are going to continue, I'm afraid, to be in a fairly sluggish economic environment in this country," Tillerson said. "Globally, the economy is probably not going to perform quite as robust as we have expected because the U.S. and Europe are a big piece of that regardless of how well China does."

Music Dept. Concert: A Celebration of Love
Valentine's Day may get more recognition, but the Asbury University Music Department is helping make sure the celebration of love lasts more than that one day next week.
On Feb. 17, the Asbury Women's Choir, Men's Glee Club and Chorale, will present "A Choral Valentine Concert" starting at 7:30 p.m. In Akers Auditorium. The concert is free and open to the public.
"This choral concert celebrates the topic of love through the eyes of children, sailors, pirates and even a crab," said Dr. Mark Schell, chair of the Asbury University music department.
Some of the selections for the evening include "Where is Love" from Oliver, sung by the Women's Choir, "Kiss the Girl" from The Little Mermaid, performed by the Men's Glee Club, and a rousing parody of "My Bonny Lass" sung by the Asbury Chorale.
"The concert also includes one of the most beautiful love songs ever heard, a setting of Garcilaso de la Vega's poem, Amor de mi Alma," said Schell. "This evening of music presented by the Women's Choir, Men's Glee Club and Chorale will make a wonderful addition to any Valentine's Day celebrations!"
The Women's Choir is under the direction of Dr. Beatrice Holz. Schell conducts the Men's Glee Club, and the Chorale is led by Dr. Vicki Bell. Additional information about the ensembles involved in the program may be found at http://www.asbury.edu/academics/departments/music/ensembles

A Time To Learn
2 Peter 1:3-11
Work hard to prove that you really are among
those God has called and chosen. Do these
things, and you will never fall away (v.10).
A video on GodTube captured a mother squirrel
trying to teach her baby how to scale a cement
wall. Over and over the mother squirrel patiently
showed how it was done, but the wall was simply too
big for the younger rodent to conquer.
Eventually, a few college students intervened. They first
placed a backpack up against the wall, hoping it would
function as a step for the younger squirrel. But it wasn't
tall enough. Next, they made a higher step by placing
a couple of sandbags on top of one another. Finally the
little squirrel climbed on top of the sandbags and scaled
the daunting wall— having learned a valuable survival
This little drama from the animal kingdom reminds me
of how God often deals with us. One of the reasons He
doesn't instantly resolve our struggles or take us out of
seemingly insurmountable challenges is because they
provide valuable learning experiences. For instance,
after He brought Pharaoh to his knees through a series
of crippling plagues (Exodus 12:31-32), God didn't pack
the Israelites' bags and march them out of Egypt. They
had to do it themselves, learning the valuable lesson that
faith and effort often go hand in hand.
Too often the Christian walk is seen as believers
sitting back and letting God do everything for us. That's
rarely the case. While God is always God, and we
can do nothing apart from Him (John 15:5), He's not going to do all the work.
Sometimes He will provide a "backpack" or a "sandbag," but He knows there
are lessons for us to learn through effort that will make us better in the long run.
—Jeff Olson
Work hard to show the
results of your salvation,
obeying God with deep
reverence and fear
(Philippians 2:12).
What's a lesson you've
learned in the midst
of working through a
challenge? What would
happen to you if God
removed every challenge
from your life?

Recon triathletes Andrew Starykowicz and Tim Don are both off to awesome starts in the 2016 season.
After a difficult and injury-ridden 2015, Andrew managed an impressive comeback with a win at IRONMAN 70.3 New Orleans last month. His blistering 1:57:55 bike split propelled him to a 3:46:52 finish, 5:27 ahead of runner-up Taylor Reid.
Andrew credits four people with guiding him along the comeback trail this winter: his wife Jill, podiatrist Dr. Schoene, and coaches Bob Duncan and Glen Thompson. But a share of the credit also goes to Recon Jet. In Andrew's words:
Jet has been awesome to train with this winter and spring. The advancements in just 1 year of programming efficiency have led to battery life doubling over the course of a year. Jet is an integral part of training when the road conditions are variable, being able to train to perfection and not have to take your focus off the road.
Andrew's win came on the heels of another impressive victory by another amazing Recon triathlete. Tim Don won IRONMAN 70.3 Monterrey in March, ending the run at the front of the pack with a 1:12:46 split and a 3:42:53 finish—a minute ahead of second-place finisher Trevor Wurtele.
Tim Don's reputation for excelling at the 70.3 length is legendary, and Monterrey was no exception. This time, though, Tim had a new tool in his training toolkit: Recon Jet. Tim explains:
For me, when I first started to use Jet, it was a learning phase. But now, I feel it's fully integrated into my training to help optimise every session I use it in. With the continued updates, Jet has just gotten better and better.
We're excited to see how both Tim and Andrew do in this season's next races. And we take great pride in knowing Jet is helping them refine their training. To learn more, check out the videos below:

FAIRBANKS - An Alaska woman convicted of identity theft in 2004 has lost her appeal over restitution for about $18,000 in wages earned while lying about her professional nursing credentials.
The Fairbanks Daily News-Miner reported that 51-year-old Becky Hunter obtained nursing licenses in Alaska using the names, Social Security numbers, birth dates and credentials of two nurses who live in New York and Canada.
Hunter used the credentials to get hired as a school nurse at University Park School for about three months, and at a U.S. Department of Labor office, where she worked for about a year. She also had other employers.
Hunter had argued in her federal appeal that her restitution order should have deducted the value of the services provided that did not require a nursing license.

Training school land eyed for farming
Published 5:32 pm, Saturday, March 23, 2013
SOUTHBURY -- Whenever the talk of preserving open space in town comes up, people start talking about the land at the Southbury Training School.
"It's the elephant in the room,'' Tom Crider, president of the Southbury Land Trust's Board of Trustees, said last week.
There's now a move under way to keep about 900 acres of that space as farmland.
State Rep. Arthur O'Neill, R-Southbury, has proposed legislation to save the land from development -- something he's done in the past to no avail.
But this year, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy's administration is backing the plan.
"People are ready for it,'' O'Neill said.
If O'Neill's proposal succeeds, Crider said it will be an important step forward not just for the town, but for the region and its environment. "It's huge,'' he said.
Roxbury First Selectman Barbara Henry agreed. Henry, who testified recently in favor of O'Neill's bill, said 105 acres of the Training School land is in Roxbury.
That land is bordered by 117 acres of land owned by the Roxbury Land Trust.
"It goes to the quality of life here,'' Henry said.
In his testimony before the Legislature's Environment Committee, Southbury First Selectman Ed Edelson said the "importance of these lands to the environmental quality of our community cannot be overstated.''
As watershed land, Edelson said it protects water quality of the Pomperaug River and area aquifers.
Preserving the land, Edelson said, is also one of the goals of the town's Plan of Conservation and Development.
The training school, founded in the late 1930s, is a residential facility for people with intellectual disabilities.
It once was home for more than 1,000 people. That's declined to about 400. Because it cannot admit any new residents, it will eventually close.
The training school's campus is about 1,600 acres. About 900 acres of that is the farmland that used to raise crops to feed the school's residents.
That land, Edelson said in his testimony, can be preserved without affecting the future of the school itself.
Under O'Neill's bill, the Southbury Land Trust would hold a conservation easement on the land. Under that easement, people would be able to use the land for farming, not development.
"We won't have to worry about a prison being built there,'' Crider said.
For people who want to farm, but can't find open land, the training school property could provide them with a piece of ground to work. The Platt family now uses about 300 acres of the land for its dairy farm, O'Neill said. That would leave about 600 acres open for new use.
"It's some of the most fertile farmland available,'' Henry said. "It means jobs and employment in our area. And it will mean produce that's raised locally and sold locally.''

During football season, these concepts are all too familiar: tackle, rush, defense, toss, tight-end, blocking, kick, forward, punt, pass and interception. (yawn!) BUT, Style Mavens unite!! You, too, can embrace the rest of the season with a strategy that requires no trades and has nothing to do with fantasy. Huddle up! It's GAME DAY, so let's PLAY!!
TACKLE the season with gusto. Color is in the spotlight, so don't shy away. Embrace these!
The colors of garnet and raspberry, emerald and clover, turquoise and ocean are hot hot hot! So, RUSH to your closet for those hidden gems you've been ignoring. Even if you don't dress in color head-to-toe, at least think 'color' when choosing jewelry and scarves. You'll feel younger and more refreshed wearing pretty tones during these shortened, drab days of fall and winter.
In your DEFENSE, change is terribly tough. But, if things don't fit, don't fight it…. TOSS them! You never feel your best in things too baggy OR too TIGHT–end (okay, that was a stretch), things too short OR too young! Why do you think God invented daughters and consignment shops?! Give! Donate! Sell! Get them out of your closet! HUT HUT! HUT!
Remember when color-blocking was all the rage? Well, now we're BLOCKING with leather and lace. Dresses, jackets and tops this year are artfully accented. Add them to your repertoire. Never has daytime-to-dinner looked so good.
KICK it up a notch with an idea borrowed from your man. The suit! No wonder he's never late in the morning. He doesn't have to think!?! The pants match the jacket match the shoes match the belt match the coffee….. Aaaand, he's out the door! Now, for women they're baaaaaaack! (…thankfully, designed a lot more creatively (and femininely) than those we wore in the 80's. Phew!)
Be FORWARD thinking and don't let the season PASS without a cool pair of boots. Nothing says smart and chic or comfort and style like boots. Leggings? Perfect for boots. Skinny jeans? MADE for boots. Skirts with tights? Boots! Dresses with fishnets? I think you get the idea. Pair them with boooooots!!!!!
Still not sure what to wear? Just PUNT! You can't go too terribly wrong with the relaxed rules of fashion these days. Just look at Miley Cyrus. Uh, …. yeah. On second thought (I think I've just found my final football analogy) … now THERE'S a case in need of a serious style INTERCEPTION! Well?!? I'm just sayin'.
Remember to … Always rock your full potential! Hut! Hut! Clap! BREAK! Grunt! Now, go get 'em! (especially those boots!!)

Staples' Wynne, DeBalsi, Darien's Lacy win at NE track
Updated 10:31 pm, Saturday, March 2, 2013
BOSTON -- Staples High School senior Henry Wynne capped a sensational indoor track season Saturday by capturing the 1000 meter run at the New England Indoor Track Championships at the Reggie Lewis Athletic Center.

Patriots talent pool drained
Jim Davis / Globe File
Bill O'Brien (center) is not the first assistant coach to leave Patriots head coach Bill Belichick (left) out in the cold. In Belichick's 11 years in New England, many of his former assistants have left the organization for greener -- and sometimes not-so-greener -- pastures.
Here's a look at some important former Patriots coaching personnel and where they are today.

The lights are on
When I finished reading Cormac McCarthy's
The Road, a guttural despair overtook me. An overwhelming bleakness lingered,
and trying to sift for hope between the apocalyptic carnage unsettled my
disposition. After playing The Last of Us, I found myself back in that same
The post civilization the game takes place in is full of
dangers, both dead and alive. The zombie-like beings in the game are called
"The infected," and they are creatures you both dread and also pity as the
disease that collapsed society has been stripping away at their humanity for a
long time. Just as scary, though, are the other living people you run into. And
though the Walking Dead proverb of "Fight the dead, fear the living" has been
shoved in our faces often as of late, you can't deny the truth in it. Everyone
is trying to survive, and if that conflicts with someone else's survival, well
then, it's a problem usually handled brutally.
This is the world main characters Joel and Ellie find themselves
in. A wild, wild west of the end of the world proportions. Joel and Ellie are
two of the most compelling characters I've ever played, both individually and
together. The scenes between them and the game's supporting cast feel so
spot-on and genuine, giving a novel's worth of emotions through glances off in
the distance, or grimaces shared. The team at Naughty Dog did an outstanding
job portraying these character's struggles as a sincere fight for survival while
also instilling a vivid fear that works through your nerves at every corner you
Nothing happens easily in the game, every attachment you
gain toward the characters comes with a host of trials, which is a tribute to
Naughty Dog's handle on pacing. The bond you experience is something special
within the gaming realm. Much like the developer's other PS3 series, Uncharted,
the quips and exchanges spoken while Joel and Ellie traverse from one area to
the next are a breath of life amongst all the decay.
Even amongst the despair, however, there is beauty, and the
player will find it through the stunning sets and ambient sounds that are quiet
and expansive. These moments can also evolve into terrifying in an instant. A
distant moan or rustle of grass will send all your other senses into overdrive.
As far as gameplay goes, The Last of Us rips out the
intensity. My forearms hurt from holding the controller so tight during the
heart-pounding encounters. The gunplay feels tight and of the moment, a
blowback from being shot or an over-swung lead pipe can be fatal. A strong
emphasize is also laid on the survival aspects of the game. The use of stealth
is fantastic as I found sneaking past a hoard of infected as satisfying as
landing a headshot. And scavenging for goods and crafting items are vital, and
make sense within the narrative.
A few small A.I. problems popped up during the course of the
game. Sometimes Ellie would crouch right in front of me during frays, but it
wasn't often and never hindered my experience.
The Last of Us takes a very tried story and slips by all the
easy tropes that it could have fallen into in order to create a work that is as
emotionally provoking as any piece of entertainment you'll experience this
year. The extreme violence and content of the game might not make The Last of
Us for everyone, but if you play it for even thirty minutes, it will be a game
that sticks with you.

Before she stormed off, I wish Tara had said, "No Trish, what America wants to know is why YOU are STILL appearing on the show!!!
Tara didn't storm off, she walked off rather gracefully. I think she handled the Trash rather well. She was polite but when Trash attacked her reasking the same question RoboChris already asked she got up and left the situation. That's the classy way to handle someone like Trash.Originally Posted by TxDolphin
I loved the bit where Trash says how she's always taken the high road then they show a few clips of her bad mouthing Tara.
She not only kept asking the same question over and over, but she was trying to get Tara to talk about her sex life on national television. Tara handled it a lot better than I would have. I hope to God that I never see Trashes face again ANYWHERE! I don't know what she thought she was doing, but it sure as hell wasn't damage control!Originally Posted by Danger Bunny
Trish just continued to prove she's a NO CLASS skank!
I wonder what Trish would have done when she was hounding Tara about Jesse's "inappropriate" actions if Tara had asked her what her plans were if Jesse had accepted her hotel room key on Mandy's one on one date. Were they going to play chess all night?
Good point. I had to laugh when Trish ridiculed Tara for "doing it" on national tv while she hadn't. The only reason Trish hadn't is because Jessie didn't want to! There goes her back pedal again!Originally Posted by MadMom
I think Trish must have been doing one of the producers, to get 10 times more air-time than any other contestant on The Bachelor!!

Whereas the initial rationale for implant placement was aimed at the replacement of missing or hopeless teeth, there has been an increasing tendency to sacrifice salvageable teeth, based on considerations such as expediency and treatment simplification. Implant therapy, however, is not without complications, particularly as it pertains to the esthetic zone. The clinician must therefore become cognizant of those clinical circumstances with a predisposition for suboptimal esthetic outcomes, including scenarios where tooth preservation may be the preferred alternative. This presentation will also discuss biologically based protocols and techniques for site preservation and development that may enhance the predictability of implant esthetics.

Augusta, GA- Just before going home to spend time with their families for Christmas, the Paine College Lady Lions Basketball team took some time out of their day to give back, and volunteered at the Faith Food Factory. Faith Food Factory is a component of the Golden Harvest Food bank, where volunteers sort, inspect and repack non-perishable donations. "At Faith Food Factory, there is only one paid position", states Manager Larry Jenkins. "If it were not for volunteers like the Lady Lions Basketball team, we would have a difficult time getting food to those people who really need it."Freshman Lashonda Canty states that "Today is a great opportunity. It makes you realize just how blessed you are." "Being able to give of myself today makes me really appreciate how blessed I am to have parents who have been able to work and provide for me, but I will not take it for granted, and I am excited to be able to help someone else", says freshman Kharyna Stanford."Most of our students are fortunate enough to not have to worry about where their next meal will come from" states Lady Lions' Head Coach Willie Adams. "I wanted my team to continue their spirit of giving back so they can have a greater appreciation of what they have."The mission of the Golden Harvest food bank is to end hunger in 30 counties in Georgia and South Carolina.

Augusta, GA--Over 150 student-athletes comprising of 10 teams at Paine College work tirelessly to achieve their goals, both on the field of play and in the classroom. They thrive off the support from their coaches, teammates, families, friends and fans. Now, they will have additional help through the establishment of the Lion Athletic Club.
On August 2, 2011, the fundraising arm of Paine College Athletics officially launched the Lion Athletic Club in a move that would create additional funds to support student athletes.In a show of solidarity, Director of Athletics Tim Duncan and the entire Paine College Athletics staff made donations or pledges to the Lion Athletic Club and became its first members. "While developing the Lion Athletic Club, our coaches and staff wanted to be a part of this historic moment in Paine College Athletics," Duncan said. 'It is a testament to our student-athletes, that 100% of the athletics staff wanted to participate in this vision."
Currently, Paine College funds 44% of the NCAA Division II maximum allowable scholarships for the 10 sports it sponsors. While that is up from the 34% funded in 2010-2011, Lion coaches are still at a recruiting disadvantage as compared to other Division II colleges and universities.
"Paine College Athletics' greatest need is scholarship money for student-athletes" stated Duncan. "For years, our coaches and student-athletes have competed with the heart and determination of Lions, only to realize deep inside that we are outmatched due to a lack of resources. Through donations from individuals, businesses and organizations, the college will be able to increase the amount of scholarships awarded to student-athletes."
"Before we asked for one donation out in the community, we wanted to show our commitment by becoming the Lion Athletic Club's first members" stated Selina Kohn, Associate Athletics Director and Head Volleyball Coach. "Now that each member of our department has joined, we hope our alumni, former student-athletes, season ticket holders, and the Augusta community will get behind the effort to provide more opportunities for Paine College student-athletes"
Lion Athletic Club membership levels range from contributions as little as $50 up to $10,000 annually. Each membership level has corresponding benefits, which include invitations to special events, complimentary Paine College Lion Athletic Club gifts, and traveling to games with teams.

Augusta, GA- Melvin Le'Kerby Marshall (Kerby) joins the Paine College baseball staff as head coach, Director of Athletics, Tim Duncan announced. Marshall comes to the program from Edward Waters College, in Jacksonville, FL where he was head coach for six years.
"We are excited to add a proven winner to lead the Paine College baseball program", stated Director of Athletics, Tim Duncan. "Coach Marshall has a demonstrated track record of success and that was one of several factors that led to the decision to hire him as the leader of the Paine College baseball program. "During the interview process, he impressed the committee with his preparedness, his vision for the program and his passion for the academic success of the young men he coaches. We are fortunate to add a coach of his caliber to Paine College."
"I am truly honored and excited to be a part of the Paine College family as the new head baseball coach," states Marshall. "It is my goal to continue to build upon and strengthen the foundation of academic excellence, athletics, and community service already in place here."
During his tenure at Edward Waters, from 2005-2011, Coach Marshall led his team to four consecutive 20 plus win seasons, two 35 plus win seasons and a trip to the NAIA championships in 2011. Last season, Marshall's team finished the season with a 37-24 overall record and recorded the first postseason trip in the history of Edward Waters College Baseball. Coach Marshall was named NAIA unaffiliated conference Coach of the Year, and received the number one ranking in Black College for NAIA and Division II baseball. Also under his tutelage at Edward Waters College, Coach Marshall helped produce the school's first player selected for the Major League Draft (Charles Thomas/Chicago Cubs-2009). In 2008, Coach Marshall's team set the school record of 35 wins and received their first national ranking in NAIA Top 25 poll. Coach Marshall has also spent time working as an assistant area scout for the Florida Marlins.
The Jacksonville, FL native is a graduate of Englewood High School, where he was a three-sport letterman, and received a double scholarship to play basketball and baseball at Shaw University, in Raleigh, NC, where he earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Management in 1992. As a student athlete, Marshall earned baseball MVP honors in his junior and senior seasons, and was also named to the All-CIAA conference honorable mention team.
Coach Marshall's coaching career began at Ribault Middle School, where he coached baseball and basketball for a year, and then moved to the high school level, where he coached baseball from 1998-2005. While at Ribault, he was instrumental in teaching the game of baseball to inner city youth, who were not exposed to the sport. He coached his middle school basketball team to a 12-0 record championship, and his baseball team finished the season with a 13-2 overall record. Once coach Marshall transitioned to high school, several of his players received baseball scholarships to Alcorn State University, Shaw University, and Lake City Community College.
"We are extremely fortunate to retain the services of Assistant Coach Kenny Bellamy. Coach Bellamy did an outstanding job as interim head coach. We think with the addition of Coach Marshall and the retention of Coach Bellamy, Paine College has the finest baseball staff in the SIAC and we look forward to competing for championships in the near future", states Duncan.
"Our goal will be to produce a team and individuals who are competing at the highest level." Marshall states. "I want to express my gratitude to Edward Waters College for giving me the opportunity to become a head coach and to Paine College for the opportunity to take the reins of this program and guide them in the future."
Coach Marshall will officially begin August 1.

Abramovich Prowls in Basel; $15 Million Picasso Sculpture Sells
A $15 million Pablo Picasso sculpture was among sales yesterday as Switzerland's Art Basel opened to invited guests, including Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich and Hollywood actor Val Kilmer.
Several works by the late Louise Bourgeois were sold at the world's largest fair of modern and contemporary art as collectors snapped up museum-quality works by established names. Greece-based Dakis Joannou, U.S. collectors Howard Rachofsky, Peter Brant and Irving Blum, and London jeweler Laurence Graff were also in the VIP crowd.
"The top things are continuing to sell well," dealer Nicholas Maclean, of the London and New York partnership Eykyn Maclean, said in an interview. "If the auctions are successful, it adds to confidence. The middle-quality modern works haven't returned to the levels of 2007, though."
The 303 galleries at the 41st fair are hoping for demand to increase as the market for contemporary works recovers from the biggest slump since 1991. The decline of the euro against the dollar is encouraging non-European buyers, said dealers.
The Picasso dancing figure, "Personnage" (1960), was shown by the Geneva- and New York-based dealers Krugier. The 3-foot (90 cm) white-plaster piece was bought by an American collector, said New York-based fine art representative Sara Kay.
The day before the fair, an Amedeo Modigliani sculpture fetched 43.2 million euros ($53 million) -- a record price for an auction in France -- at Christie's International, Paris.
"It's different from last year," said Sandy Heller, who advises Steve Cohen of SAC Capital Advisors LP. "It feels pretty frenzied. I haven't heard 'Sorry, it's already sold' for a while."
Bourgeois's Baudelaire
Pieces by Bourgeois, who died last month aged 98, were among the early sales. Her 2009 mixed-media work on paper, "A Baudelaire (#7)," priced at more than $650,000, found a buyer at the booth of the Brussels-based dealer Xavier Hufkens.
Hauser & Wirth, with galleries in Zurich, London and New York, sold a 1998 Bourgeois fabric-and-steel sculpture, priced at $850,000. New York-based dealers Cheim & Read found U.S. museum buyers for a 1996 sculpture of fabric-covered forms hanging from a frame and a series of 28 gouache drawings from 2010, titled "Les Fleurs." Both were priced at $1.5 million.
"As soon as Louise died, we saw a surge of interest in her work," Adam Sheffer, a director at Cheim & Read, said in an interview. "It's a mortality issue. People seem to have realized that she was the heir to Giacometti."
'Snow White'
Hauser & Wirth also sold two sets of five 6-foot-high silicone sculptures of dwarfs by the Los Angeles-based artist Paul McCarthy. New works inspired by Walt Disney's "Snow White," these were priced at $3 million per set. Cheim & Read sold a canvas by the French-based painter Joan Mitchell for about $2 million, said Sheffer.
"We're back to 2007 price levels for some names," the New York-based dealer Per Skarstedt said. He listed a 2002 Christopher Wool abstract at $800,000, a 1992 Cindy Sherman photo at $500,000 and a 1987 Barbara Kruger silkscreen at $700,000 among his sales. The Sherman went to a Swiss collector, the Wool and the Sherman to U.S. buyers.
Hauser & Wirth was keen to avoid being overly exuberant about its recent signing of Matthew Day Jackson. A new life-size recycled wood sculpture of the artist as an astronaut sold to a European collector for $150,000. U.S.-based Jackson's work was recently exhibited at Francois Pinault's Punta della Dogana museum in Venice. One of his works sold for a record 601,250 pounds ($890,000) in February.
"We've been careful about pricing this artist," gallery director Iwan Wirth said in an interview. "Otherwise, the market is pretty much back to the world we knew in 2008. The crisis in the art world lasted for six months, then it went back up."
Art Basel's main sponsor is UBS AG. (UBSN) The event takes place at Messe Basel, Messeplatz, 4005 Basel through June 20.

So after 4 days, sore arms, tears and frustrations- I'm throwing in the towel and just ordering my invites from etsy!! I did the math and I figure that with all the supplys and materials I would need I'd probably spend at least $100. I can order 40 invites professionally designed with envelopes for $160. I think my sanity is worth $60. For those of you who have DIY boarding pass invites, how much did you all spend?
Giving in and ordering custom invites!

Function and Form.....put them together....Success.
Use this idea in whatever size you need or whatever frames you already have. A cute little frame painted white by the fridge for a grocery list, a black frame by the back door to leave a message for family, frames painted in bright lacquer colors (one for each family member) for messages or chores.....you get the idea. Magnetic paint could also work on the back of the glass to magnetize your white board.

Police responded to the motel at 10:45 p.m. on Sept. 30 to respond to complaints of a man banging on the doors of other motel guests. Upon arrival, officer Kevin Sheppard found that Malcom T. Barnett, 47, was at his room and according to the report appeared "highly intoxicated." The report says he looked at officers in "an aggressive manner."
Other guests said he had threatened to shoot someone with a gun, but no weapon was found in his room.

Institutional priorities, values and commitments develop and evolve over time, changing when circumstances require. Bank Street is defined by a number of commitments. Some have very deep roots in the College, going back to the days of the founder, Lucy Sprague Mitchell. Others are more recent, drawing upon new information and changes in the world. So, what are some of today's commitments?
We are defined by a number of commitments.
These are:
An old fashioned phrase: habits of mind.
What does this imply?
In both Children's Programs and the Graduate School, we emphasize inquiry, we encourage curiosity, and we engage students on their own terms. The China Curriculum in the School for Children is a good example. Here, the 10/11s study China's past and present, its evolution relative to culture and traditions. Students begin by looking at Chinese culture, which serves as a starting point for a later consideration of their own culture(s).
As a class, they look at examples of three children living in modern China and use these examples to learn about family roles, the value placed on education, and the many ethnicities, spiritual beliefs, occupations, and lifestyles in today's China.
For a second example see Allison Warren's response to her students' interest in planes by looking at the video "Paper Planes" (http://vimeo.com/9973813). A Graduate School alumna, Allison more than meets her Memphis students' curiosity.
We believe that these habits are enduring, producing a lifetime respect for learning.
Indeed, at Bank Street there is a long and deep commitment to diversity. New York City, of course, brings diversity to the doorstep on a daily basis. With more than 8 million residents and nearly 170 languages, New York is diversity. With respect to religion, race, gender, age, sexual preference, and economic background, Bank Street mirrors the City.
However, the biggest challenge to diversity facing Bank Street today and into the future involves our tuition. Bank Street is an expensive school when compared with New York's public school and City University tuitions. We are keenly aware of this reality and continue to work very hard to contain costs and control tuition increases. In the School for Children, 30% of families receive financial aid. In the Graduate School, approximately 70% of students receive aid.
Bank Street's commitment to diversity has a long history. In the 1960s, Bank Street was deeply involved in the formulation of two national federal education initiatives: Head Start, a program for poor pre-school children and families begun in 1965, and Follow Through, a program begun in 1968 to provide educational support services for elementary school children and their families in poor communities. In addition, the 1965 Bank Street Readers, the first multi-ethnic urban basal readers, revolutionized early childhood literacy teaching in America. Conceived by Bank Street President John H. Niemeyer, the Readers project was managed by Irma Simonton Black, director of Bank Street's Publications division, and written by her and the division staff. LINK: FALL 2004 Street Scenes, pages 16, 17, 18 – discusses John Niemeyer and the Bank Street involvement in Head Start and Follow Through, and also gives the story of the creation of the Bank Street Readers.
Whether through the development of educational materials, engagement in educational research and policy-shaping, or internal policies that guide daily life, Bank Street has a clear record of commitment to diversity.
Engaging with our communities has been a part of Bank Street for many years. In September of 2010, for instance, we were awarded the National Center on Cultural and Linguistic Responsiveness by the Federal Office of Head Start. The major tasks of the center include:
- Developing and maintaining an extensive electronic catalogue that provides cutting-edge and evidence-based resources on cultural and linguistic competence;
- Creating research-to-practice materials that support high quality services to diverse children and families;
- Reviewing and revising existing resources for dual language learners;
- Sharing information and tools with the field on topics which include language preservation, supporting English and home language development, engaging families from diverse cultures, and emerging issues around immigrant populations.
We also worked with the New York City Public Library to develop a cadre of early literacy leaders for the population of children birth to three, their families, and their caregivers among existing New York Public Library staff.
Another example is the work we did throughout the city supporting the effective use of the Early Childhood Assessment in Mathematics (ECAM). This project supported teachers, math coaches, and network leaders to:
- Administer the assessment;
- Interpret the results of the assessment;
- Use assessment interpretations to enact improved learning opportunities with students;
- Work with other teachers to use the assessment to improve instruction; and
- Identify and prepare participants to work with colleagues in their schools and networks.
Health and wellness.
Beginning in September 2011 Bank Street is re-emphasizing the importance of health and wellness in two respects.
We are introducing Chef Chad and a new foodservice for the College Community; this will feature simple, healthy and when possible local and organic food. We are taking this step in concert with Chef Bobo at the Calhoun School (http://www.calhoun.org/page.cfm?p=48). Our goal is also to connect aspects of the lunch meal to the curriculum in the School for Children.
In addition, Staff Council and Human Resources are introducing a wellness program for staff; this will include lunchtime athletic activities, a speaker series, and a communications "hub" which will provide monthly email briefings and links on important health and wellness topics.
In conclusion,
Commitments help to define institutions; they reflect values and basic assumptions. Bank Street has always had commitments. The commitments will continue to evolve and develop, guiding priorities and decision-making along the way.

Not sure if this can be done, but it would be amazing if I can do it.
I'm trying to edit the partitions on the sd card in my Galaxy S3.
The plan is to have a boot-able partition, for the purpose of loading iso's.
The end result being...
64GB SD card.
2 Partitions.
50GB For Phone
14GB For ISO's
The plan being, for me to be able to plug my phone into any computer, boot to the SD card, select an ISO, and either live boot, or install.
Can this be done?
I tried gparted, but it cannot edit exfat partitions.
The SD card is backed up, so I'm fine with erasing it.
Also, I do have SGS3 Easy UMS installed on the phone.
So when I plug the phone into a usb port, the computer has direct and sole access to the SD card. So in theory, this should work.

Morgan McIntosh Pledges to PSU
Willie Saylor, Editor
Coming off a banner recruiting class in Cael Sanderson's first season scouting talent for PSU, the Lions made waves again Monday when they scooped what is perhaps the most coveted upper-weight in the country.
While last year's class was dominated by in-state talent, Cael couldn't have went any farther to get this blue-chipper.
Morgan McIntosh, of famed Calvary Chapel HS, in California, has given his verbal commitment to continue his career at Penn State.
McIntosh already owns two state titles, at 171 and 189lbs, as a sophomore and junior, respectively.
This summer he won the Freestyle portion of USA Wrestling's Junior National Tournament in 189lbs. It was his 3rd finals appearance in Fargo overall.
He also moved up in age group at the Fila Jr. National Championships in Ohio this summer. McIntosh placed 3rd, splitting matches with future teammate, Ed Ruth.
Morgan was ranked as our #1 184lb recruit in our Top Prospect Report last week, He joins our #1 125lb prospect, Nico Megaludis, also a Fargo finalist, as #1 recruits in the class of 2011 for Penn St.
