| http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11526448/ GREECE, N.Y. - Jason McElwain had done everything he was asked to do for the Greece Athena High School basketball team — keep the stats, run the clock, hand out water bottles.

| I have worn glases for quite awhile. I was planning on getting a pair with Transitions lenses but they need UV to darken and therefore won't work behind a car windshield.

| Yeah, I was the same way. If you are looking to get into engineering, IT, or any kind of art program look into Rochester Institute of Technology. They are pretty well known for that. If you want any other kind of degree I still suggest here. I want some new CNC machining centers for the machine shop. |
