Tuesdays, 7:30-8:30pm with Elena Iannucci
Week 2
Pre-requisite: Beginners Basic (two month minimum) or equivalent. For those with comfortable, working knowledge of the Basics of 6 count swing.
We will focus on expanding the student's 6-count vocabulary while introducing basic 8-count patterns and continuing to work on lead/follow technique. We will also introduce footwork and pattern variations. The goal is for 6 count movements to become second nature and for students to become comfortable social dancing.
The Advanced Basic syllabus contains three sections (A, B and C) which can be taken consecutively or simultaneously on Tuesday and/or Thursday evenings. All sections should be completed before a student moves up to a higher level.
Students should repeat the Advanced Basic class as often as necessary to master the techniques and become comfortable dancing. Although each section (A,B,C) requires that certain basics are taught, each rotation is embellished with different elements and variations. Taking any of these again will NEVER feel repetitive.
We recommend that students obtain the instructor's permission prior to moving on.

Family law includes, divorce, custody disputes, support, etc. Our firm strives to set itself apart from other family law attorneys in the area by offering unique and creative solutions to the problems that can arise in a divorce or other family law matter.

We aren't looking for clip art. We really aren't looking for a gavel, scales of justice, or other common "legal" themes.
We are looking for something simple that still stands out stand out. Color is fine, but not too much color. Best to stick to cooler colors, though.
Our website is http://www.maidafarrar.com
The design does not have to mimic the site, but the site can give you some ideas as to what we may be looking for...it's somewhat nontraditional as far as lawyer sites go and we like that. It certainly doesn't look like other attorney sites in our area and we like that. Simple, clean, unique, and inviting.

A Special Pair of Shoes
In the home of the Rosh Hayeshiva of the world-renowned Beit Midrash Gavoha of Lakewood, Rav Malkiel Kotler, there is a precious heirloom – a pair of worn-out shoes.
He inherited them from his father, who inherited them from his father, the founder of the Lakewood Yeshiva, Rav Aaron Kotler. The original owner was Rav Aaron Kotler's father-in-law, Rav Isser Zalman Meltzer, the Rosh Yeshiva of Yeshivat Kletzk in Europe and later head of Yeshivat Eitz Chaim in Jerusalem.
During World War One many yeshiva students were forced to leave their places of study which suffered from the shelling of opposing armies and to return to their homes. One such youngster, who was to later become the great Rosh Hayeshiva of Ponevez, Rav Eliezer Shach, could not afford carfare and walked for a week to his home, often seeking refuge from flying shells. When he knocked on the door of his home he was met by his mother who insisted that he immediately return to the yeshiva where he would be safer than at home. Without hesitation he turned around and started walking back. Still exhausted from the first journey, it took him longer to get back and he was on the road for nearly two weeks.
Before he took his seat in the Beit Midrash, the Rosh Hayeshiva, Rav Meltzer, offered to exchange the badly torn shoes he was wearing for a new pair of shoes. The "deal" was made and the torn shoes which told a touching story of love of Torah and respect for a mother became the precious heirloom of a royal family of Torah.

The twitter world is abound with tons and tons of people with who have locks and natural hair. One of my favorite tweeps is @FreakzNGeekz. I love her blog because she doesn't have any cut cards – she gets right to the heart of the matter. Make sure to check her out! Her latest post is on the male perspective of Tantric Sex (yum!).
@FreakzNGeekz has been kind enough to share some of the wonderful locked styles she's had. One of the things I love the most about these photos is that they show the complete versatility of dreadlocks and natural hair.
Always remember: your locked hairstyles are only limited by your imagination.
The Braid-Out
Braid outs are the most simple locked hairstyle that you can accomplish (and the one I wear most often!). It is exactly what it sounds like: you braid your wet natural hair/dreadlocks and then let them dry to set. The setting can be done via a natural air dry or by sitting under a hood dryer for several hours.
When I style my hair in braid outs, I always start with a clean head of hair. After washing and performing maintenance, I separate my hair into sections that are six (6) locks thick – which I then braid into a single plait and secure at the end with a wrapped rubber band/ponytail holder. I shy away from sitting under the dryer on a regular basis, so I almost always allow my hair to dry naturally. This means that I wear my hair (out in public) with my hair set for at least 24-48 hours. This means that it has to look NEAT, not just be functional.
Bantu Knots (Zulu Knots)
Bantu Knots are wonderful, especially if you love textured hair but don't want the hassle of additional styling (the set of the braid out) or rollers. Bantu Knots, also known as Zulu Knots, are two hairstyles in one. The first style is the knot itself. The second style is the texture the knot sets into your natural hair/locks – it is very similar to what a roller set would look like (without the rollers).
In order to create Bantu Knots, start with a clean head of hair. After washing and maintenance, I usually separate my hair into sections. Like the Braid Out, I find that six (6) locks are plenty but your lock thickness may vary. I take the section of six locks and twist into a large double strand twist. Once twisted, take the twist and make a large knot as tight to the scalp as possible. What you want is a knot that looks like a mini hair bun. Repeat throughout the hair. This may take some practice, so I would suggest trying this a few times when you have plenty of time to devote to your hair. This style can be worn for several days.
Once your hair has dried completely OR you are tired of wearing your Bantu Knots, just take the knots down. Your hair is already styled! I like to finish up by using a small amount of olive oil, Carol's Daughter's Lisa's Hair Elixir or Orofluido oil to coat my locks, especially the ends.
Pixie Twists
Pixie Twists are also known as Pipe Cleaner Curls. Unlike Braid Outs and Bantu Knots, Pixie Twists require additional equipment: pipe cleaners. The end result of Pixie Curls are very tight ringlets. I have to admit that I don't wear this style much, my husband isn't a big fan of tight curls.
As always, start with a clean head of hair. After washing and maintenance, take a pipe cleaner and bend one end upwards. Take your locks (I generally use no more than 1-2 locks per cleaner but it depends on the lock thickness) and begin to wrap them tightly and snugly around the cleaner from the bottom up to the root, making sure to wrap the lock around the cleaner and the hair. Like the Bantu Knots, this style can also be worn for several days to a week, especially if you used pipe cleaners that are close in color to your hair.
Once your hair has dried completely OR you are tired of wearing the pipe cleaners, just take the pipe cleaners out. Your hair is already styled! I like to finish up by using a small amount of olive oil, Carol's Daughter's Lisa's Hair Elixir or Orofluido oil to coat my locks, especially the ends.
*TIP: Pipe cleaners may leave lint that is impossible to see in your hair. Always try to use pipe cleaners that are closest to your hair in color. Try to give the pipe cleaners a gentle cleaning and allow them to dry before using the first time. This should allow you to remove some of the excess lint prior to use.
Pin Curls
Pin Curls are created by creating large rolled curls throughout the entire head and pinning them down (and together) with hair pins. As with all dreadlock wet sets, Like Pixie Twists, Pin Curls also need additional equipment: hair pins.
Tip: For this style you need hair pins, NOT bobby pins.
Note: I want to start by saying that I have never put Pin Curls in my own hair before, so I only have a visual knowledge of how to do this technique. Since I only have a visual knowledge, I'm going to speak to our lovely model to see if she is willing to guest on this blog with a write up of how she completes both her Pin Curls as well as her braided up-do's and buns.
Unlike most dreadlock hairstyles, you do not HAVE to start your set with clean, wet hair in order to do this style…although it would be in your best interest. I'm only mentioning this because this is a style that is practical and cute for an unplanned night on the town that does not require hours of washing and maintenance. If you do decide to not to do your Pin Curls as a wet set, please recognize that you will not be able to take advantage of the "secondary style" that comes with most wet sets.
Braided Up'Do's and Buns
Let me just be honest, I have never learned how to do my hair up. Freakz 'N Geekz does a wonderful job with up-do's, so I'm going to cross my fingers and hopes she's willing to guest blog soon. 🙂

|Apostolic Letter "Summorum Pontificum" issued Motu Proprio
|Benedict XVI
On Saturday 7 July 2007 Pope Benedict XVI issued an Apostolic Letter on the celebration of the Roman Rite according to the Missal of 1962. The following text is the unofficial Vatican Information Service translation of the official Latin text.
Accompanying Letter of Pope Benedict
Up to our own times, it has been the constant concern of supreme pontiffs to ensure that the Church of Christ offers a worthy ritual to the Divine Majesty, 'to the praise and glory of His name,' and 'to the benefit of all His Holy Church.'
Since time immemorial it has been necessary - as it is also for the future - to maintain the principle according to which 'each particular Church must concur with the universal Church, not only as regards the doctrine of the faith and the sacramental signs, but also as regards the usages universally accepted by uninterrupted apostolic tradition, which must be observed not only to avoid errors but also to transmit the integrity of the faith, because the Church's law of prayer corresponds to her law of faith.' (1)
Among the pontiffs who showed that requisite concern, particularly outstanding is the name of St. Gregory the Great, who made every effort to ensure that the new peoples of Europe received both the Catholic faith and the treasures of worship and culture that had been accumulated by the Romans in preceding centuries. He commanded that the form of the sacred liturgy as celebrated in Rome (concerning both the Sacrifice of Mass and the Divine Office) be conserved. He took great concern to ensure the dissemination of monks and nuns who, following the Rule of St. Benedict, together with the announcement of the Gospel illustrated with their lives the wise provision of their Rule that 'nothing should be placed before the work of God.' In this way the sacred liturgy, celebrated according to the Roman use, enriched not only the faith and piety but also the culture of many peoples. It is known, in fact, that the Latin liturgy of the Church in its various forms, in each century of the Christian era, has been a spur to the spiritual life of many saints, has reinforced many peoples in the virtue of religion and fecundated their piety.
Many other Roman pontiffs, in the course of the centuries, showed particular solicitude in ensuring that the sacred liturgy accomplished this task more effectively. Outstanding among them is St. Pius V who, sustained by great pastoral zeal and following the exhortations of the Council of Trent, renewed the entire liturgy of the Church, oversaw the publication of liturgical books amended and 'renewed in accordance with the norms of the Fathers,' and provided them for the use of the Latin Church.
One of the liturgical books of the Roman rite is the Roman Missal, which developed in the city of Rome and, with the passing of the centuries, little by little took forms very similar to that it has had in recent times.
"It was towards this same goal that succeeding Roman Pontiffs directed their energies during the subsequent centuries in order to ensure that the rites and liturgical books were brought up to date and when necessary clarified. From the beginning of this century they undertook a more general reform.' (2) Thus our predecessors Clement VIII, Urban VIII, St. Pius X (3), Benedict XV, Pius XII and Blessed John XXIII all played a part.
In more recent times, Vatican Council II expressed a desire that the respectful reverence due to divine worship should be renewed and adapted to the needs of our time. Moved by this desire our predecessor, the Supreme Pontiff Paul VI, approved, in 1970, reformed and partly renewed liturgical books for the Latin Church. These, translated into the various languages of the world, were willingly accepted by bishops, priests and faithful. John Paul II amended the third typical edition of the Roman Missal. Thus Roman pontiffs have operated to ensure that 'this kind of liturgical edifice ... should again appear resplendent for its dignity and harmony.' (4)
But in some regions, no small numbers of faithful adhered and continue to adhere with great love and affection to the earlier liturgical forms. These had so deeply marked their culture and their spirit that in 1984 the Supreme Pontiff John Paul II, moved by a concern for the pastoral care of these faithful, with the special indult 'Quattuor abhinc anno," issued by the Congregation for Divine Worship, granted permission to use the Roman Missal published by Blessed John XXIII in the year 1962. Later, in the year 1988, John Paul II with the Apostolic Letter given as Motu Proprio, 'Ecclesia Dei,' exhorted bishops to make generous use of this power in favor of all the faithful who so desired.
Following the insistent prayers of these faithful, long deliberated
upon by our predecessor John Paul II, and after having listened to the
views of the Cardinal Fathers of the Consistory of 22 March 2006, having
reflected deeply upon all aspects of the question, invoked the Holy
Spirit and trusting in the help of God, with these Apostolic Letters we
establish the following:

The Movie:
Directed by Hungarian filmmaker Benedek Fliegauf in 2010, Womb (his first English language feature, also known in the UK as Clone) begins in a small town along the sea where we meet a nine year old girl named Rebecca (Ruby O. Fee) who is there visiting her grandfather for a little while. Soon after arriving, she meets and becomes very close with a ten year old boy named Tommy (Tristan Christopher). When Rebecca's mother accepts a job in Japan and whisks her off with her, their relationship is cut short but twelve years later, an adult Rebecca (Eva Green) heads back to that same town and manages to track down Tommy (Matt Smith) in hopes of starting over. They fall in love fast and hard and things are going great until Tommy is killed a car accident.
Distraught and broken hearted, Rebecca soon decides that there is a way to bring him back to her and so she meets with his parents, Judith (Lesley Manville) and Ralph (Peter Wight) to discuss cloning Tommy and recreating him inside her womb. Judith is understandably uncomfortable with this idea, but Ralph's reaction is less kneejerk. Unbeknownst to Judith, he signs the appropriate paperwork that Rebecca needs to move forward with this and with everything in place, she goes about becoming a surrogate mother to a cloned version of the man she once loved. The birth goes surprisingly well and soon enough, she's raising Tommy (Tristan Christopher) as his mother, having told him that his father was killed before he was born. Tommy soon starts to experience discrimination at the hands of the other kids in the area. When their parents find out he's a clone they refuse to let their children affiliate with him and, seemingly with the best of intentions, Rebecca decides to combat this by taking Tommy away and living with him alone, removed from society. With his mother his only companion, Tommy's relationship develops into something more than maternal, though as he gets older and matures he meets and falls for Monica (Hannah Murray), which causes Rebecca some conflict. With both mother and 'son' confused about their relationship and Tommy completely unsure of what exactly is going on, an unexpected visit from Judith is the last thing either of them need.
Shot on location in Germany, Womb makes great use of its barren, isolated locations. Plenty of slow, lingering shots accentuate the loneliness that obviously plays a very big part in the story rather effectively. Though the storyline itself is a bit predictable (it's not difficult to figure out where things are headed with Rebecca and the 'young man' cloned version of Tommy) it's nicely acted by both of the leads. Matt Smith is definitely reeled in here when you compare his performance in this picture to his work in Doctor Who but he suits the role well. He's given a couple of opportunities to be eccentric in the movie, a trait he has shown a knack for during his time in the TARDIS. He never chews the scenery and does an impressive job with the more conflicted aspects required of his character and his interactions with Eva Green as Rebecca give the film a solid anchor. Green is also excellent here. Not only is she a beautiful woman but she's quite a talented actress and this movie gives her plenty of opportunity to prove that. As her character's obsessions become more obvious and more involved, her performance becomes increasingly conflicted. Rebecca is both mother and lover to Tommy, and understandably this leads to all manner of soul searching and what not. She does it well - though the film falls short in that she really doesn't seem to age a whole lot here, even as cloned Tommy grows from child to man in front of the camera.
Womb isn't a perfect film, however. We don't get to know either of the lead characters all that well as children, and so their whirlwind romance as adults before Tommy's death feels too quick, too forced. A bit more character development, particularly on the part of the character of Rebecca, would have filled things out very nicely and made for a more engaging film. The movie does, however, feature some beautiful cinematography and a great score. On top of that it does a clever job of subtly blending science fiction trappings with art house drama into something that should prove interesting to fans of either. At times it seems to channel both Bergman and Kubrick, without every borrowing too heavily from either filmmaker, but for the most part it's an engaging, quirky picture. Womb manages to tackles themes of incest, isolation and the impending onset of advancements in reproductive technology while still managing to tell a good story.
Womb looks very good on Blu-ray courtesy of Olive Films framed at 2.35.1 widescreen and presented in AVC encoded 1080p high definition. First things first, however, and that's to go into the movie knowing that a lot of color tweaking has been done here and that a lot of scenes use a soft focus. So this means that sometimes the colors look a little cooler (read: blue tinting) than they might otherwise and that sometimes the detail in those softly lit scenes isn't quite as razor sharp as it could be. With that said, however, the movie definitely does take advantage of the added resolution that the format offers. Those soft scenes aside (they're not a constant), detail is pretty impressive, especially in close up scenes. Texture is also quite good here, you'll notice it a lot in the different pieces of clothing that the performers wear. Black levels are nice and strong, showing no problems with shadow detail or any compression issues, while edge enhancement and noise reduction are never a concern resulting in nice, normal looking skin tones. All in all, the movie looks very good - no complaints here.
The English language DTS-HD 2.0 Stereo track on the disc is a good one. Some will lament the absence of a 5.1 mix but the stereo track is considerably fuller than you'd probably expect. There are a lot of different types of sound effects used almost constantly throughout this movie, some more subtle than others, and all of them come through very clearly here and with the right amount of presence. Dialogue stays crisp and clear while the impressive score adds some welcome emotional depth to the movie. Would some rear channel activity have made for a more enveloping experience? Probably, but that didn't happen (though the specs online for the UK Blu-ray release indicate that there was one available on that disc). What's here is good though. No alternate language or subtitle options are provided.
Aside from a static menu offering chapter selection, we get a trailer for the feature and trailers for a few other Olive Films releases.
If Womb is flawed, it's no less interesting or worth seeing because of it. Both leads do a fine job here and the production values and cinematography are generally top notch. The story is an interesting one, it makes you think and it makes you feel, which is more than can be said about most films. Olive's Blu-ray release is really light on extras, and that does hurt the package overall, but it looks and sounds good and given the quality of the feature itself, easily comes recommended.

The Images of Israel in Shanghai College Students' Eyes - A Questionnaire Perspective
This research paper aims to explore the images of Israel in the eyes of college students in Shanghai, China. The author chooses students from East China Normal University, Shanghai International Studies University, Shanghai University of Finance and Economics together with some other small groups of college students as the subjects of the questionnaire. These target college students are supposed to represent the mainstream discourse concerning the public images of Israel among Shanghai young intellectual groups. In the survey, the author discovers the responses are both positive and negative, though not half to half, mostly depending on from what ( which )channels they have learned about Israel.

Shai Agassi - the man once expected to take over SAP - has left the software maker. Agassi's resignation will take effect at the end of this week and open the door for the SAP executive member to chase after his dreams in the alternative energy market.
It has long looked like SAP was grooming Agassi for the CEO post. Such plans, however, were derailed when SAP last month extended the contract of current CEO Henning Kagermann through May 2009.
"I had shared with Shai my plan that he should become successor to Henning Kagermann as a co-CEO for SAP," said Hasso Plattner, Chairman of SAP's Supervisory Board. "With the extension of Henning's contract to 2009, it became apparent that Shai was not comfortable committing to a 10- to 15-year period, which was not in keeping with his personal career timeline. Given this, I made the recommendation to the Supervisory Board that we change our plans and now adjust SAP's executive management team responsibilities."
The charismatic Agassi fired off a compelling statement as well, making a nuanced bid for the Miss Universe pageant.
"I look forward to new opportunities, and working on issues that are important to me, including alternative energy and environmental policy issues, as well as the future of Israel," he said.
Agassi's peers at SAP expect him to form an alternative energy start-up. They did not comment on his plans for the future of Israel.
SAP also announced that Leo Apotheker, president of customer solutions and operations, has been tapped a Deputy CEO of SAP. ®

| 10.6°C Dublin
NEIL Lennon hailed his Celtic "heroes" who wrote themselves into the history books with their momentous 2-1 Champions League victory over Barcelona at Parkhead.
It was a Group G clash that the Hoops were not supposed to win but the East End of Glasgow exploded as Victor Wanyama and Tony Watt scored leaving Lionel Messi's late strike a consolation and pop singer and Celtic fan Rod Stewart crying in the stands after the final whistle.
Hoops boss Lennon, though, could hardly suppress his joy, saying: "I think it was one of the greatest nights in the club's recent history."
He continued: "It was very poignant at our 125th anniversary, one to play Barcelona in such a prestigious game and two, to win the game under huge difficulties with the squad decimated by injuries and illness.
"The players are heroes, they are heroes to me, I can't speak highly enough of their performance tonight and they will go down in the history books of the club as the team who beat probably the best team in the world.
"Everyone goes on about tactics but football is about players and they have covered themselves in glory tonight."
Celtic, with seven points from four games, two less than leaders Barca, travel to Benfica before hosting Spartak Moscow in their final group fixture. Benfica have four points following their home win over Spartak Moscow, who are bottom of the group with three points.
The Hoops fans will surely fancy their side's chances of reaching the knockout stages of the competition but Lennon remained cautious.
The former Celtic skipper said: "We have a chance, that's all it has given us. A greater chance than maybe we expected before the game.
"But we still have two very tough games. The problem is the players and staff will have to deal with is that the expectation level will increase. There is still a lot of work to do but we have given ourselves a platform. But that's for the future, I want the players to enjoy the moment and take it all in."
PA Media
Champions League
THE 125 candles on Celtic's birthday cake were outblazed by a result that flared around Europe as they administered Barcelona's first defeat of the season courtesy of a Victor Wanyama header and a dazzling strike on the break by 18-year-old Tony Watt, despite a frantic late rally that saw Lionel Messi score his inevitable goal.

Optus has unveiled three new BYO mobile phone plans including two without the need for a fixed contract and one available on a 12-month plan.
The revamped BYO plans are targetted at users who already have an unlocked mobile phone or smartphone.
All three of the new BYO plans will work on the Optus 4G network, provided the mobile device is compatible with the 1800MHz 4G network band.
The new BYO offerings include $20 and $40 plans available on a month-to-month term, and a $60 plan available only on a 12-month contract. However, the $60 Optus SIM plan is an "introductory offer" that will revert to $65 per month from Monday 1 July.
The $20 and $40 BYO plans plans include 200MB and 1GB of data per month, respectively, and offer $200 and $500 worth of included calls and text value. The latter can be used for standard SMS and MMS messages, standard voice calls to Australian fixed lines and Australian mobiles, calls to 13/1300 and 1800 numbers, and voicemail.
The $60 BYO plan offers 2GB of data and unlimited calls, SMS, MMS and voicemail.
All three plans bill excess data at 25 cents per megabyte (MB) while data usage is counted in kilobytes (kB).
Optus' Managing Director of Customer, Vicki Brady, said the new BYO plans have the same rewards system in place as regular post-paid contract plans.
"Whether you've waited in line for five hours to buy the latest smartphone or are still using a five year-old mobile phone, Optus BYO plans deliver great value and all the rewards our post-paid customers enjoy."
Among the rewards offered to Optus customers include $10 movie tickets to Hoyts and selected independent cinemas, as well as the ability to earn Qantas Frequent Flyer points.
More details of the Optus BYO plans can be found on the Optus website.

Eva Sin's Likes
What I like? The really simple things. I am a complex woman but at the same time so simple! Sometimes just to make people around me feel happy is what makes me happy too. Other times a long, long, deep conversation with someone that can turn on my mind just by expressing its thoughts will be enough to make me be head over heels for you. Reading, doing yoga, make-up and traveling will always be my passions.
My Fantasies
There are a lot of fantasies that come into my mind right now so it is hard to pick only one. However, I am a very open-minded woman and I will always be curious to learn more or to let you help me discover myself or find new fantasies that I might like. If you want to seriously ramp up the sexual tension take me to a place where I won't be distracted by others. Lead the situation by taking me somewhere quiet and continue to build rapport further. I am worth it, I promise! :)
My Obsessions & Desires
I am into whatever kind of fetish or fantasy that will please us both mentally or physically. I am willing to explore my secret wild side. Are you?
Additional Info
There are not two shows alike and each show is unique to me. I want to know what brings you here, what turns you on, what you expect to see in my show so please don't hesitate to tell me. Communication is very important to me and is the only way I can find more about you and learn how to meet your expectations. I am willing to share my sexual side with you or just to talk about whatever comes into your mind. I am a free and wild spirit so nothing can scare me or make me think less about you. Just be yourself and our show will be an unforgettable experience.
Special Info
I like to keep the open chat a clean, fun and friendly place to hang out for all people. So these are some minimum rules I would like all to follow: -Emoji's- Use them moderately. -Don't spam the chat! Don't be rude with me or other customers in room. -Do not beg! If you can't afford to be here, be a man, log off and get a job. If you wanna join the conversation you are more than welcome. "Show tits","Show ass" do not count as conversation. -And most important have fun and stay naked! Keep it clean and enjoy!

Michael R. Kennedy, 33, was one of two firefighters who died Wednesday as a result of injuries suffered fighting a nine-alarm blaze on Beacon Street in Boston. His mother lives in Cohasset and his father in Holbrook.
COHASSET - When The Patriot Ledger ran a story in 2012 about a terminally ill Rockland man desperate to see his son graduate from Marine Corps boot camp at Parris Island, S.C., Kathy Crosby was among those who stepped forward to make the trip happen.
Crosby, of Cohasset, said at the time she was moved to help cover the expenses of the trip when she was shown the story by her son, a Marine veteran and Boston firefighter.
Crosby's son, Michael R. Kennedy, 33, along with Lt. Edward J. Walsh, 43, died Wednesday as a result of injuries suffered fighting a nine-alarm blaze on Beacon Street in Boston.
Both firefighters were assigned to the Engine 33/ Ladder 15 fire station on Boylston Street, less than a mile from the scene of the fire.
Kennedy had more than six years of firefighting experience. He lived in Hyde Park and was unmarried. His father, Paul Kennedy, lives in Holbrook.
Crosby and her husband, Kennedy's stepfather, live on Elm Street in Cohasset.
"(The family) lives seven doors down from the fire station," Cohasset Fire Chief Robert Silvia said Thursday. "We feel for the families and the firefighters in Boston and everyone who was their personal friends. Our thoughts and prayers go out to them."
Cohasset police officer Patrick Kenney's son, Patrick, was childhood friends with Kennedy, and the two attended summer camp together.
"(Kennedy) was a nice kid," Kenney told Wicked Local Cohasset on Thursday. "I knew him from years ago when my son used to hang around him."
Kenney said Kennedy became a firefighter after he left the Marine Corps. "When he got out, he wanted nothing but to be a firefighter," he said.
For the past seven years, Kennedy was a Big Brother to Alex Beauzile, 14, of Milton, through Big Brothers Big Sisters of Massachusetts Bay.
Kennedy and the Milton teen have been snowboarding, attended Celtics games and spent a lot of time just hanging out.
Kennedy was helping Alex fulfill his dream of becoming a police officer.
Through tears, Alex's mother, Genie Morelus, told WCVB-TV that when her son receives his high school diploma someday, it will really belong to Kennedy.
When asked what his best memory was of Kennedy, Alex recalled a trip to Six Flags New England in Agawam.
"At the end, he told me he loved me, and I said, 'I love you, too,'" Alex said.
Some of Kennedy's friends have contacted Big Brothers Big Sisters to volunteer in his memory.
"We are obviously very saddened today," BBBS president and CEO Wendy Foster said.

"Prepping is always an activity worthy of much thought. I'm of the mind that what we prep is based on that which we prepare for. Gold could be a valued item with the collapse of currency. If we are looking at a total global collapse of society and logistical supply structure , precious metals would be of little value."
I note that you said currencey. currencey is not money, as you probably already know. "Fiat Currencey" is currencey backed by nothing but trust, and since America left the gold standard and went into the "petro dollar" the world has followed and adopted Fiat Currencey. America is the world's greatest debtor nation of all time she owes $17 trillion and has $100 trillion in unfunded liabilites i.e pensions and social security....so is that sustainable? who knows?
but China,India and Russia have become the biggest purchasers of Gold.Germany has asked for the US to repatriate her gold from Fort Knox, and there are moves in Switzerland for her Gold to be repatriated as well, Venezuela has already done this....all the central banks are purchasing gold and yet printing more and more Fiat currencey...certainly makes a man think.
And lets not forget dear old Cyprus, where they can just steal your money.......and moves are afloat in New Zealand, Italy and Spain to pass legislation through their respective parliaments to allow the same moves.............gold has no counterparty risk, if it's in your hand then they have to take it from your hand .but it is expensive. Silver however is very undervalues and Cheap $30 an ounce as opposed to $1600 and ounce.
However salt, sugar and curing agents for meats and spices might become more valuable than gold in a land with no supply chain and no energy source to run the infrastructure created to safely store food supplies. Harvesting meat with no means to save it for future meals becomes an activity that sometimes burns more calories that it provides."
Yeah food,shelter a place to go..if there was a currencey collapse. there will be a lot of people not getting social security, or pensions.lot of angry disaffected people. I prep now..I've got my compound bow, knives, food.I'd like a boat coz I am on an island.and they are good for fishing or escaping

Thought leadership is back in vogue in a big way, and there are many who claim the thought leader mantle without a clue as to what thought leadership is and what it takes to attain the status.
With that being said, I will outline the elements of thought leadership and the accompanying benefits of that status. The term itself has only been around 19 years, first showing up in the Booz Allen Hamilton excellent magazine Strategy and Business.
A thought leader is an individual or company that is widely recognized as an authority in a specific niche. They are sought out by the media, conferences and potential clients for that expertise.
Activities of a thought leader do not simply encompass "knowing stuff", but maintaining a knowledge and awareness of their niche that places them at or near the top of that niche on a constant basis.
This should be a given, but thought leaders go further. They find and share venues where they can share their knowledge with their business community. These venues can include various places to write (articles for trade publications, blogs, white papers, etc), speaking at various industry events, and sharing at networking venues.
Some people think being a subject matter expert makes them a thought leader. You can be an expert on virtually anything, but if you lack the quality of sharing that knowledge and you lack the recognition of the niche, you don't make the cut. Not everyone gets there.
Thought leaders are not merely seen, but they are widely recognized by the community they serve and they are trusted by that community. They are proactive in both their learning and their sharing. Usually they exude an excitement about sharing their knowledge in virtually any environment. I view that enthusiasm as a key trait.
Thought leader is not a self-bestowed title, though there are those who seem to think by adding the phrase to their LinkedIn profile, the mantle has settled on them.
The benefits of thought leadership are clear- recognition by the industry served by way of speaking engagements, articles, blogs and guest blogs, and more. Thought leadership is often accompanied by more business for you and your company.
So who can attain this lofty status? That is hard to say, but what is easy to say is that most don't make the effort.
In Selling to the Government I outline seven steps you need to take.
First: Carefully define your niche and be absolutely certain you have a legitimate claim to some intellectual real estate pertaining to that niche.
Second: Establish your claim by developing and sharing information.
Third: Further establish the claim by incorporating it into your web site, collateral material and your social networking activity.
Fourth: Thought leadership requires an immediate information outlet, so you should have a blog
Fifth: Tie your activities together: articles, speeches and blog posts should be tweeted; writing articles should appear on your web site and LinkedIn profile; have a "Share" button on your blog to make it easier for people to share what you write; your web address, LinkedIn profile url and Twitter handle should be on everything you write.
Sixth: Understand that intellectual real estate is rarely a sole-ownership situation. There may be multiple tenants. A true thought leader acknowledges the contributions of anyone who adds value. Cite your sources.
Seventh: Make connections and network with people in your niche, online and offline. Visibility is a key.
Thought leadership is a discipline, one that demands many things aside from the knowledge: you must be seen, known and trusted – and then you have a shot at being recognized by your niche as a thought leader.

Admirer - I agree in part, but contracting officers and other influencers have a comfort level with companies that are known and that are recognized experts. While thought leadership may not be the #1 criteria, it is still on the list and may cause the tipping point.
Your are right on Mark. One critical attribute of a thought leader which is inherent in all you have said, but needs to be highlighted, is that a thought leader must be a leader, one who motivates, inspires, and influences. We here at the University of Fairfax have had a consistent theme since our inception in 2002 to enhance CyberSecurity Thought Leadership - Develop a cadre of CyberSecurity thought leaders.
Mark--unfortunately, in our industry, the labor is suppled and actively marketed and, indeed, bought as a commodity. And far more often than not, the Federal customer is not looking for analytical moxie, or even more than yes-I-am-awake-and-breathing thoughtfulness. It can and does happen, but big sales and most small ones are not bought for the thought leadership content that might fill the process methodology that you just laid out. Nature of the beast.

Charles Follen Adams
American poet
Charles Follen Adams (1842–1918) was an American poet. In 1872, he began writing humorous verses for periodicals and newspapers in a Pennsylvania German dialect.
- I haf von funny leedle poy
Vot comes schust to mine knee;
Der queerest schap, der createst rogue,
As ever you dit see.
He runs und schumps and schmashes dings
In all barts off der house:
But vot off dot? He vas mine son,
Mine leedle Yawcob Strauss.
- "Yawcob Strauss", in Yawcob Strauss, and Other Poems (1876), p. 11.
- " Tis plain to me
As A B C,
My dear friend, Mr. Neff!"
"Oh, yes! but then,"
Says Mr. N ,
"You know I'm D E F!"
- "Yawcob Strauss", in Yawcob Strauss, and Other Poems (1876), p. 69.
- If an S and an I and an O and a U
With an X at the end spell Su;
And an E and a Y and an E spell I,
Pray what is a speller to do?
Then, if also an S and an I and a G
And an HED spell side,
There's nothing much left for a speller to do
But to go commit siouxeyesighed.
- An Orthographic Lament; although Adams had published at least one poem playing on the pronunciation of the word Sioux, no firm evidence supports his authorship of this work.
