Alumni Viewpoint: John Collins, Spanish, Class of 2012

My name is John Collins and I graduated with a Spanish Major from Wake Forest University in May, 2012. For the last 11 months I've been volunteering in Quito, Ecuador through the organizations United Planet and Voluntariado para la Ayuda Social de Ecuador (VASE). I am currently working for Fundación Salesiano in the Centro de Referencia in Pisuli. This is a very underdeveloped area of Quito with many in-need families. My primary function in the Center is refuerzo escolar, helping the kids with their studies and homework. I also help in organizing material assistance for the children at the start of every semester and throughout the school year (book bags, school supplies, journals, etc.). My experience and studies in Spanish at Wake Forest have been extremely integral during my time here in Ecuador. Learning a second language, and especially Spanish, can really open doors in a lot of places, not to mention, it makes it possible to speak with and get to know literally MILLIONS more people. It's a big world out there, and a lot of those people hablan español. I know my experience abroad this year would not be what it is without the preparation and knowledge I gained in my studies at Wake.

I am currently working for the PGA TOUR and their Olympic Golf Course development project in Rio de Janeiro for the 2016 Olympic Games. The year 2016 marks the first time since 1904 that competitive golf will be included in the official Olympic Programme and the PGA TOUR plays an integral role in developing the sport within Brazil. I am responsible for translating the golf course's construction logistics, environmental guidelines, and press releases between Portuguese and English as well as interpreting communications between the committees stationed in Rio de Janeiro and Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. This responsibility has provided me with a great opportunity to develop my Portuguese in a professional setting while interacting with native Portuguese speakers. Through this process I have acquired a better understanding of the cultural differences between Brazilian and American enterprises and the intricacies of the Portuguese language. Studying Portuguese at Wake Forest is a great experience and I fully intend to continue my language studies after witnessing the benefits of a multilingual skill set.

I am interested in immigration law, so I interned at an immigration law firm in Miami over the summer. I worked directly with clients, attorneys, and immigration officers of USCIS. As part of the experience, I helped attorneys at the firm communicate with interested clients from Brazil who were not proficient in English. I was the only one at the firm who could communicate in Portuguese. It was very exciting to be able to apply my language skills in a real-world setting. This experience encouraged me to further my studies in the Portuguese language as it made me realize that Portuguese-speaking clients are just as interested in coming to the United States as Spanish speaking clients.

Lauren Hull is currently working as an English teacher in Brittany, France, as part of the Teaching Assistant Program sponsored by the French Ministry of Education and the Cultural Services of the French Embassy.
I'm teaching in Questembert at Lycée Marcelin-Berthelot, but I live in Vannes about a 35/40-minute drive away. I love the Morbihan region, Vannes, and the high school where I'm teaching. The other teachers are really friendly and welcoming and the students especially enjoy learning from someone closer to their age and getting to practice talking about subjects they're interested in. In Vannes, I live with four French roommates, and spending time with them has been a great way to meet people and improve my French (especially slang).
Thoughts on Wandering & Wandering Thoughts (from Lauren Hull's blog, fall 2013)
Since arriving in France, I've enjoyed a constant stream of novelties, from food (lots and lots of new tastes), to city scenes and landscapes, to vocabulary, to friendly new faces... I could go on, but I think the point is made - these first three weeks that I've been in France have been chockfull of discovery and I have been in paradise running around and soaking it all in. A good friend from camp asked me a few summers ago why I enjoyed traveling and … my friend's question got me reflecting on how my desire to travel reflects my character, affects my life trajectory, and illustrates my spiritual disposition. Welcome to the life of a 20-something, liberal arts graduate discovering that her life is no longer a color-in-the-lines type of book. Every thought and experience ultimately leads to a moment of overly dramatic metaphysical reflection.
My morning car rides from the city into the countryside to school are also incredibly beautiful. […] We drive east so we're headed towards the sunrise through rolling fields occupied by cows and the occasional cornfield, all covered in a thick mist. As the sun shines through the fog, adding light and color to the country landscape, it is simply breathtaking.
I feel like I am always in awe here. From the start of my day with the misty sunrise to each beautiful sunset over the ocean or gulf. I love to feel that sense of wonder and to be inspired by the beauty around me. I think that's a natural human craving that we often seek to satisfy by traveling to new places and seeking new sights…..

My name is Pearson Lien. I am a sophomore here at Wake and I am in the process of founding The Italian Club. As we begin, I will be the president with Sara Brigagliano as vice-president, Joe Motola as treasurer, and Katie Gamble as secretary. The four of us studied abroad in Italy with the Casa Artom program this past summer (2013), and there we discovered our love for the Italian culture.
Upon coming back to Wake Forest, we wanted to form an Italian Club where we could take Italian out of the classroom. Sara Brigagliano shares, "What I learned at Casa Artom was not out of a book, but through living, eating, and breathing Italian. Our goal is for the club to serve as a window into the Italian language and culture here in Winston-Salem." Hopefully, the club will also encourage students to study abroad so that they can have a similar experience like ours.
Lastly, we also aim to encourage students to look into the Italian culture. The club is not to focus primarily on the language but on the beauty of the culture. A flight to Italy is costly, but club membership is free.

Reflections on the other: Intercultural Explorations in Lombardia
Sitting here writing this in my apartment 30 minutes outside of Milan, I realize how much I truly owe to the Italian section of the Romance Languages Department, particularly Dr. Morosini and all of the other professors that I have had the pleasure of meeting during my four years bouncing in and out of classrooms studying Italian. Four years ago, while struggling in Italian 113, I never thought that I would be where I am right now, in Lombardy teaching Italian high school students English. For my entire life Italy was a siren, gently calling me, pulling my interest in and then deeper. The history of my family and the history of my roots spread throughout the beautiful Italian terrain, from the Alps in Trento, where my grandmother was born, to the rolling Tuscan hills where her parents were born, all the way to Naples and has lured me my entire life.
Clearly, Italy and I have a history, but my love affair with Italy really started while studying abroad. After coming back from Florence, I knew that after I graduated I had to come back, had to see more, experience more. Then one day in class Dr. Morosini told us about this opportunity to teach English in Lombardy. So I applied, was accepted, and here I am teaching, and more importantly learning about me, about Italy, about people.
So far, after a month and a half of teaching, I've had many fun (try asking an Italian to say milliliter) and memorable moments, and learned not only about Italian culture, but also my own culture. Some of the best moments teaching include being asked by my students if it's true that American's eat "mice" for Thanksgiving, only realizing after, that they were saying Maize, as in corn, or when one of my students, talking about herself and her boyfriend said she "split him up," rather than "split up with him." Also, in one of my first days teaching, I was nervously twirling a marker, and accidently hit a student in the face with the marker. I was absolutely mortified, but the student laughed, then I did, and then the entire class laughed, after that everyone was much more relaxed, and hopefully learned some English too, though I'm not making any promises.
Ultimately, I wake up every day excited to teach, but more importantly excited to learn. I certainly would not have had this opportunity to teach in Italy without the help of the Wake Forest Italian section, not only in terms of help with the application, but more importantly I felt prepared, linguistically and culturally, to move to Italy and survive, to make a life uninhibited by language or cultural barriers. This is by far the most important thing that I learned from the Italian professors; even though I still have difficulty with the subjunctive in Italian (shh . . .). I can still have a meaningful conversation, although I've picked up some bad habits from my students, as in speaking Italian like a teenage girl.

I can give the Oct. 25 letter writer what I think is an even better reason to vote against I-522. Let's not create another bureaucracy that will grow, wield increasing unfettered power and cost us untold millions in revenues that could remain in the hands of those who earned it and need it most. However, if you don't care how increased food prices impact the least affluent among us, need someone to make choices for you or just believe that another government agency is required to save us from ourselves then, by all means, vote for what I believe to be this ill-conceived, poorly written, completely unnecessary, onerous attempt to seize more control over your life.

Almost Home Humane Society In Search of New Funding
By Sam Klemet
A local animal rescue and adoption shelter is looking for new sources of revenue.
The Almost Home Humane Society in Lafayette is running at a deficit of nearly $300,000.
Executive Director Michelle Warren says part of the reason is an increase in animal intake.
She says it costs the shelter more to house these pets and believes the economy is the primary factor for the recent spike.
Almost Home Humane Society took in more than 2,000 animals last year.
Warren says it's the first year the shelter has seen an intake increase since 2006.
She says the organization is asking the cities of Lafayette and West Lafayette to pay more for stray animal fees
Warren also says a number of new fundraisers are planned for this year, including a gala at Purdue.

Not surprising but I can't help but feel for Gosviani. At least she got a shot at Euros and imo didn't disappoint there with her 6th place. I am not counting out Alena but I am not impressed after watching her performances from Russia Cup. Yes, she landed her jumps, but she really wasn't that convincing ...
Perhaps they will send Menshov to WTT?
I can't help to think that this is a mess and could have been handled differently. For the european championships there was all that discussion about Menshov/Kovtun and some people mentioned that it would be ok to pick Kovtun cause the third place at nationals doesn't make it mandatory to pick that skater. But what to say about the selection decision for worlds? Isn't Voronov the silver medalist from nationals?
Anyway I wish Kovtun good luck for worlds and hopefully he will manage to get a top 10 place.
Its funny that Gosvianis 6th place finish in a strong ladies field at Euros was considered as so weak that she had to do a test skate against Leonova, who performed subpar in any competition she entered before Russian Cup. And its even more funny, how Kovtuns 5th place finish in a weak field at Euros was so brilliant to release him from any duty to skate at Russian Cup, despite except for Voronov he didnt beat any skater at Euros, Menshov has not had beaten this season in previous competitions. Guess, the real reason for Russian Fed not wanting Kovtun to participate at the Russian Cup was that they feared he might be beaten by Menshov and in worst case even by Voronov, which would have made Russian Fed look pretty stupid.
Gives you certainly a hint how fair the decision making process worked.
Actually I even feel for Voronov, though I dont really like his skating. Anyways to Menshov & Voronov for skating well at Russian Cup, despite both guys for sure knew that it actually doesn't matter how they skate, as Russian Fed had already decided to send Kovtun to World. It must be hard to have a job, which is as demanding as FS, but knowing, that your performance does not count, but rather right age, politics and reputation. However, in the long term I dont think Russian Fed is doing to themselves any favour with such course of action.
Russia is looking to the future with their Men so that's why they are sending Kovtun. It's not like Voronov or Menshov hadn't had years after Plushenko to take the reins of the Russian Mens program an keep them competitive which they haven't. And lets face it at 25 and 30 they don't have many years left. So why not give the kid a chance? It's not like someone like Gachinski is any better in fact right now he's a disaster. That Bronze he won at Worlds in 2011 is looking more and more like a fluke. He's only 19 so he has time to turn it around but right now he can't be counted on either.

I really like Gosviani, but I understand that Leonova's last year's Silver gives her certain priviledges. Hope Gosviani gets GP next year.
Kovtun /Menshov is an understandable, but a sad situation. It seems that Menshov did everythig in his power to prove himself.
improving my ballad- like lines
I'm so sad for Makarova, she's not even listed as substitute for Worlds
I thought it might be an issue of minimum score, but apparently Makarova has both scores now that they've been revised. I am thinking that not participating at all in the Russian cup final basically excluded her from consideration, given that the rest of her season was poor. The other ladies alternates were on the roster, although Biryukova withdrew. Perhaps not signing up was basically a way of her saying she declines to contend for a spot. I mean, why train just so you can possibly be second alternate at best, rather than recovering from a tough season and getting a head start on the Olympic year?

Average Rating: 4.0

Really love these chacos. I've gone hiking in them (with socks) and use these as my walk-to-work shoes. We'll see how long they hold up on NYC concrete - my last pair of Chaco sandals survived years in California but only one season in NYC. Recommend to anyone looking for a hiking shoe for trails that aren't too rough. Works great as rain shoes too but do take a full 8+ hours to dry out from soaked. As with other Chacos, don't tighten too much, just enough to keep on your feet or you may get blisters on your heels. I got my normal size and they fit great.

Ive had my sandals in a 9 wide for almost 4 years and I absolutely adore them but there are some things I just need a close toed shoe for. I thought these would be a still comfortable and open alternative to regular tennis shoes but I cant wear the regular width shoe. Very disappointed! Please make these shoes in a wide and id love to own a pair in every color!

I love these shoes!!! Can't wait to get the replacements. Outer connecting strap pulls at an angle and twists the strap, so won't tighten properly. But I know the exchange is not going to be an issue. Thanks in advance!

A fight over an amendment banning gay marriage is heating up in the Indiana Statehouse.
Already, several government boards and commerce agencies have spoken out against Indiana House Joint Resolution 6 — which would allow for a constitutional amendment to be placed on the ballot that defines marriage as being between one man and one woman — saying that it will hurt Indiana's potential and attractiveness to employees and employers.
The New Albany City Council, Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce and Indianapolis City-County Council have come out publicly against the amendment. Major Indiana employers like Eli Lily Co. and Cummins, as well as Indiana University, Ball State University and Butler University have also voiced opposition to the bill.
If the resolution passes through the general assembly, it would be placed on the 2014 ballot for Hoosier voters to decide whether or not the state's constitution will define marriage as only between a man and a woman.
But locally, few organizations have yet to take official action on the proposed amendment.
After the New Albany Human Rights Commission wrote an open letter to the body seeking its support, the New Albany City Council approved on Thursday a nonbinding resolution that opposes HJR-6.
"For the first time, support for gay marriage is now higher than that who oppose it," the commission wrote in the letter. "Indiana will be doing a disservice to its residents by passing this legislation. If passed, HJR-6 will prevent any legislation from being passed in the future including legal protections for same sex couples.
"We understand that this would be a nonbinding resolution, but we are asking that you stand beside us on the right side of history, and tell Indianapolis not to pass this legislation and allow our great state the ability to move forward with the rest of the country."
Similar feelings were echoed by council members and residents during Thursday's meeting, as the resolution was approved 7-1-1.
"Honestly it's a politicized question, that's what it boils down to," Democratic Councilman Dan Coffey, who supported the city resolution, said of the proposed state amendment.
Jeffersonville City Councilman Matt Owen said he has been considering introducing a resolution opposing House Joint Resolution 6, but he doesn't know how the other council members feel about it.
While the resolution is being pushed for by Republican state legislators — with a notable exception being Ed Clere, New Albany, who previously voted against the amendment — Owen, a Republican, said he is against it.
"I think this amendment would be a step backward for Indiana," he said.
He said state law already defines marriage and the proposed amendment would go further, banning rights conferred through civil unions.
But fellow Jeffersonville City Councilman and Democrat Nathan Samuel said he doesn't believe the resolution is something that the city should be supporting or opposing.
"Frankly, that's a state issue," Samuel said. "As a body, I don't think that's our role," he said of the council. "It's a hot-button issue [and] honestly, I don't have a feel for how my constituents would want me to vote," he added.
With it being a statewide issue, Samuel said that voters in the area, if they have strong opinions on the matter, could contact their state representatives or senators to voice their preferences.
Owen and Samuel also differed on whether or not they believe the resolution would have an impact on the attractiveness of the region to businesses.
"I think its a definite turn-off for employers looking to locate and build on industry in the state," Owen said. "We have 6,000 acres of River Ridge to develop and we want to attract those big employers."
But Samuel said the region is set up well to continue to attract employers regardless of the state's decision.
"I don't think that affects us at all," he said. "I think we're very fortunate with the assets that we have. I have not heard any business leader say that's a deterrent in Jeffersonville."
David L. Clifton, professor at Ivy Tech Sellersburg branch's school of business, said he's not sure that's an issue that businesses look at when they are looking to locate somewhere.
"I think they are more interested in their profit than they are in issues of this nature," he said.
He said he believes the bigger driver for companies are property taxes, tax incentives and the availability of a strong work force.
Other local universities have offered an opinion on the matter.
Indiana University Southeast has aligned itself with the main campus in Bloomington taking a stance against the proposed resolution.
"As a regional campus, IU Southeast operates under the same values and with the same principles as Indiana University," said Interim Chancellor Barbara Bichelmeyer in a written statement. "Our campus strives to be welcoming for all students, faculty and staff, and we believe that a campus is the ideal place to encourage individual rights and freedom of choice. We are proud to be part of Indiana University."
Notably absent from weighing in on the matter were several of Southern Indiana's major employers.
The News and Tribune requested comments from Clark Memorial Hospital and American Commercial Lines Inc. on their stance on the resolution, but neither of the entities responded as of press time.
One Southern Indiana President Wendy Dant Chesser could not be reached for an interview, but offered a response to whether or not her organization — the chamber of commerce for Clark and Floyd counties — would make a declaration on the proposed amendment.
"While One Southern Indiana, through our employee and membership policies, provides for an inclusive work environment, debates on the HJR-6 amendment have not yielded consensus," Dant Chesser wrote in an email. "In fairness to our members and investors, we have not taken an advocacy position on this proposal."
River Ridge Commerce Center also responded, but did not take a side in the matter.
"That is something our board has not even entertained," said River Ridge Executive Director Jerry Acy. "Typically, we don't take a position on political matters."
A group of about 300 Indiana religious leaders have also weighed in on the proposed constitutional amendment, urging legislators to vote against it.
The Interfaith Coalition on Nondiscrimination posted the letter on its website said while people of different faith traditions may disagree on marriage-related issues, each of the signers of the letter respects the right of religious groups to decide whether or not to sanction marriage or other unions of same-gender couples.
"The proposed 'marriage amendment' would strip civil rights from committed same-gender couples," according to the letter. "As many of us affirmed when supporting legislation to prevent sexual orientation discrimination in the workplace, public accommodations and housing; each of our faith traditions emphasizes justice. For our society to be just, the civil rights of all people, even those with whom we may disagree, must be protected. We should not be writing discrimination into our state Constitution. This fact alone merits rejection of the marriage amendment."

Olympic Experience:
How She Qualified: Queen, 20, earned the Olympic boat quota slot in Women's Slalom Kayak for the U.S. by placing 37th at the 2011 World Championships in Bratislava, Slovakia on September 9. Teammate Ashley Nee pulled even in Olympic selection points by winning the 2012 U.S. Olympic Team Trials in Charlotte on April 14. The lone Olympic slot would go to whichever paddler finished higher at the 2012 World Cup No. 1 in Cardiff, Wales. Queen booked her ticket for London on June 9 with a 35th place finish, 1.06 seconds faster than Nee.

When comedian Mike Birbiglia opened his one-man show Sleepwalk With Me in 2008 at the Bleecker Street Theatre in New York, he didn't anticipate that it would become material for a popular piece on This American Life and a New York Times best-seller.

Birbigilia had never made a film before. And he was initially hesitant to make one about his dangerous sleepwalking condition, because he wanted to distance himself from the topic he had been immersed in for more than four years.

Somerset —
Before a slew of games this weekend at Cumberland County High School, Southwestern hosted Monticello in a 48th District contest on Thursday evening at Warrior Stadium.
It was a scoring spree for the Warriors, as they plated 18 runs in an five-inning, 18-2 victory over the Monticello Trojans. With the 16-run victory over their district counterpart, Alex Eaton's squad upped their overall record to 17-4 and moved their district mark to perfect 5-0.
Eaton was proud of the way his team came to the ballpark ready to take care of business, which is exactly the Warriors did.
"We showed up tonight and did what we were supposed to do," began Eaton, who is in his third season as the Southwestern skipper. "Our mindset was right and was exactly where it needed to be. We got a lot of young guys in, so it was a pretty good night for us."
Southwestern struck first in this one, plating three of their 18 runs in the bottom half of the first inning. Two of three runs in the frame came when senior Logan Starnes (error) and freshman Trevor Howard (walk) scored on a double from freshman Lucas Turpin.
After the Trojans scored a lone run in the top of the second inning, the Warriors tallied four runs in the bottom of the frame to grab a 7-1 advantage. Southwestern, who sent all nine players to the plate in the frame, had RBI singles from senior Zack Profitt and Turpin.
The Warriors continued to roll in this one, scoring a trio of runs in the third frame to make the score, 10-1, in favor of Southwestern. In the frame, Southwestern was paced by three hits from junior Trevor Stacey, Trevor Howard, and Starnes.
Eaton and company exploded for eight runs in the bottom of the fourth inning to grab an 18-1 lead over visiting Monticello. Junior Jesse Meece, freshman Wade Purvis, freshman Vincent Boils, and junior Wyatt Burton, each tallied a hit in the frame.
Leading the way for the Warriors at the plate was Stacey and Turpin, who both had two hits each in the contest. Ten different Southwestern players had at least one hit in the four innings that they went to the plate.
Turpin finished with a game-high three RBI's, while Purvis chimed in with two. Counting both Turpin and Purvis, eight Southwestern players tallied at least one RBI.
Brandon Pruitt, an eighth-grader, earned the victory in his first varsity start. In three innings of work, Pruitt had seven strikeouts. Junior Christian Strack gave up zero hits and had four strikeouts in two innings on the hill.
"Brandon Pruitt did a great job on the mound," praised Eaton. "We wanted to keep his pitch count around 35 pitches, so we can use him this weekend. He did great tonight, considering it was the first varsity start he's had. Christian Strack came in and was able to finish it out for us - he did exactly what needed to be done."
Southwestern will take their two-game winning streak in to a tournament this weekend at Cumberland County High School. Eaton is hoping his team is around long enough to win the championship.
"We've got a tournament this weekend in Burkesville, and we're looking to go down there and sweep it," concluded the Southwestern head coach. "Our goal is to go down there and win it, so hopefully it works out for us."
WP - Pruitt (SW)
LP - Smith (MONT)
2B - Turpin, Boils (SW)
RBI - Turpin 3, Purvis 2, Burton, Profitt, Meece, Shadoan, Trevor Howard, Starnes (SW)

Yes. The updates listed earlier in this discussion are the same for all the models shown. Note: the update only effects the Bluetooth section of the head unit, not the tuner.

I was able to update my US version AVH-4400BT with my iMac today took 3 tries before it worked . At the end i didn't get the "completed" message instead it said "updating" for about 2-3 min i then just exited the screen and tested it out and was happy to see all was back to "normal" . Thanks all for your help.

Ok, so I have the Pioneer DEH-8400BT. I downloaded the update software from Pioneer's homepage and followed through the instructions. I connected my Macbook via Bluetooth with the Pioneer and ended up with an error code 10?!
Can anyone help me with that? The Bluetooth section of the radio won't work anymore, there's just the error code 10 on the display! I can't even try the update again, nor I can delete the system of the radio 'cause this menu item is gone!
Please, can anybody help me with that?
770. Re: bluetooth music issues after iOS6 updatebajancwtrfl Jan 24, 2013 6:48 AM in response to stormysound
This is from Pioneer support:
Thanks for your email. Error-10 means that power has been lost to the internal bluetooth module. If this problem persists after power cycling the unit (turn the car off, then back on), the unit will require service.
If you just purchased the unit, see if your dealer will exchange the unit for you. If they won't assist, go to:
Click on "Find a Service Center" to look a up a repair center in your area. If you are under warranty, bring a copy of your receipt with you when you drop off the unit.
I return my unit because it was still under warranty.
771. Re: bluetooth music issues after iOS6 updatedarrelm_1967 Jan 24, 2013 6:51 AM in response to nikB123So just to bring everyone up to speed so they don't have to go through hundreds of replys, the issue is that when Apple released the IOS 6 they built the bluetooth to be 4.0 compliant, however they did not build it backwards compatable, so any device that is not 4.0 compatible is subjetc to expeprience any number of problems. This is not just iPhone 5 it covers the 3/4 series as well.
Some of the things that are being seen is:
1. unable to connect to bluetooth devices (headsest, car head units earhones etc... not limited to any particular brand, my issue is with a 4s and a oioneer head unit.)
2. if it does connect then it stops playing or "Skips"
3. very poor sound quality
4. on partial functionality (in my case it will connect but when streaming music i can play the song but have no controls to play/pause skip forward/backward or any music ID tagging display like name or artist of the song)
Currently Apple refuses to even acknowledge there is a problem (this has been going on since IOS 6 was released in September)
Apple response is you need to update your devie to be 4.0 compliant, even if that means that your 2012 BWM does not work, I gues you need to buy a new BWM again the issue is all over the place with many different vendors.
For me personally the bluetooth phone part works better than the streaming audio I have to about twice a week delte the pairing from both the iPhone and the head unit for the blue tooth to finally connect for phone part. I dont even try the audion streaming any more. The head unit i have is a pioneer 2012 model pioneer avh-p8400bh and poineer is working on updates from thier side although that seems to have stopped as well.
I have opened a case back in September and have called several times and each time I am told that they (apple) are not seeing hardly any problems with the bluetooth audio and that it is most likely my device.
I know this is not a comforting response but may help some of the new people on here. Several people have suggested that we go to W.A.T.C.D.O.G and report it there to see if they added pressue will help out casue. I personally have done so.
772. Re: bluetooth music issues after iOS6 updateDTFan Jan 24, 2013 9:46 AM in response to darrelm_1967
Thanks for the help all. I can say that I have successfully upgraded my Pioneer AVH-2400BT using the european firmware and my macbook air. Here's my procedure:
Clear bluetooth settings in AVH
Pair Macbook air with AVH
Under the bluetooth dropdown on the mac select the AVH>"Browse device"
You'll get a window that has the "upgrade" folder in it. Navigate to the folder
***Important step here***
I kept getting failed uploads here when I'd drag and drop into the upgrade folder. The key is to now go back to the AVH>Home>Settings>Upgrade bluetooth firmware. Click "ok" and it will now say "Waiting for Data" or something like that. Drag and drop the firmware file now into the upgrade folder.
Upload takes a few seconds and then about 2-3 minutes for the firmware to update.
Cycle power on the AVH
Repair your iPhone now.
I had to go into bluetooth devices under the AVH settings and reclick my iPhone device to get the audio working right. After that, I'm getting all metadata and streaming with itunes app and Pandora.
773. Re: bluetooth music issues after iOS6 updatecmjeep Jan 28, 2013 7:21 AM in response to DTFan
Adding in -
Just got off the phone with Pioneer customer support and they are planning on releasing updates "by this spring" for all units that remaing effected" and are listed on this compatibility report.

774. Re: bluetooth music issues after iOS6 updaterustykerr123 Jan 28, 2013 7:41 AM in response to cmjeep
Here is one of the big problems I am just now seeing: The new firmware will be released in a few months, but if we assume that apple will resume there summer release of IOS and iPhone (which I have seen reports of this), then if any change is made that affects bluetooth, then we will have to wait another 8+ months to get another update to replace the one that we received a month or so before.

This is incorrect. The BT 4.0 standard is backward compatible with BT 2.1 if the BT 2.1 handler is truly compliant with the BT 2.1 standard. Unfortunately, some, but certainly not all, BT 2.1 implementations did not fully adhere to the 2.1 standard. This causes problems when they are used with any BT 4.0 implementation. Note thatt many BT 2.1 implementations have no problem with iOS 6 and BT 4.0. Clearly users in this state with no problems aren't posting on this forum.
Note also that iOS 6 only uses BT 4.0 on iDevices which have BT 4.0 hardware: iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPad 3, iPad 4, iPad Mini, and iPod Touch 5.
Some vendors are well aware that they have a problem with BT 2.1 vs BT 4.0 and are, slowly, correcting this.

Well if you do send it back to pioneer and they accept taking it back let us know, I bought mine in september, about 1 week before ios 6, now when the next iphone is released, which I will be buying, I will have to buy the 2013 model to have full support. I have been very happy with my pioneer products except for this headunit.

iOS 6.1 has just been released.
I have found iOS 6.1 to actually fix my bluetotth issues with my "Beats Wireless".
*originially on 6.0 my music would cut-out every 5-15 minutes*
After 6.1 installed, I have not had any cut-outs what so ever. I have been listening to music for 3 hours straight without any cut-outs as of 1/28/13.
6.1 on my iPhone 4S has fixed my bluetooth issue as of now. (Siri is still disabled via bluetotth which was not a problem in 5.0) Will be testing iPad 2's bluetooth later today to see if 6.1 also fixes this issue, since I have had the same problem since 6.0 came out.

I enjoyed the prime location of this hotel and the easy access to the River North area.
Although I didn't find it a huge issue others in my party did complain about how low the toilets were in the rooms. This should definitely be considered going forward.The hotel was great the front desk clerks were very friendly and extremely helpful and accommodating. Those in my party also enjoyed the lobby area and the outdoor patio too.

Ten months after a woman was struck and killed while crossing Seven Courts Drive, the driver responsible has been sentenced.
The Baltimore County State's Attorney's Office, however, expressed disappointment at Baltimore County Circuit Court Judge Kathleen Cox's ruling, handed down on Nov. 1. The requested 10-year prison sentence for David Grayson French Jr. was reduced to 18 months, followed by four years of supervised probation and 100 hours of community service, according to Michael Fuller, a Baltimore County assistant state's attorney.
"I asked for 10 years because I felt the crime was horribly egregious," Fuller said. "The defendant had a prior alcohol related conviction and another alcohol related arrest a month prior. The facts in the case were clear."
Fuller said several friends and family members of 68-year-old victim Beverly Moore attended the sentencing hearing. Many had also submitted letters about the hit-and-run's devastating impact on the community, he said.
Community members had long speculated that the driver responsible for Moore's death was under the influence of either drugs or alcohol at the time of the accident, shortly after 7 p.m. on Jan. 22.
"Unfortunately, the fact that it was a hit-and-run means it's impossible to determine if drugs or alcohol were a factor," Fuller said in September.
French was not charged in connection with Moore's death until April. He eventually pleaded guilty on Aug. 7 to failing to remain on the scene of an accident resulting in death, a felony.
Moore was a resident of Bourbon Court in Perry Hall and an active member of the neighborhood.
Shortly after 7 p.m. on Jan. 22, Moore was carrying groceries from a shopping trip at Weis Markets when a vehicle stopped to allow her to cross near the intersection of Lincolnshire Court. A Ford 500 sedan, driven by French, swerved around the vehicle and struck and killed Moore. It then left the scene and turned westbound on Joppa Road, according to police
With the help of an anonymous tip, police located the Ford 500 sedan in the 1600 block of Denise Drive in Bel Air on Feb. 1, near a residence of French. Weeks later, police confirmed the investigation has been turned over to the Baltimore County State's Attorney's Office.
Months passed and frustration among Moore's neighbors grew as the investigation wore on.
"Everybody was waiting for answers," said Charlie Armetta, a friend and neighbor of Moore. "Everybody wanted to know if they would catch him."
On the one-month anniversary of her death, neighbors said an arrest in the case would bring some consolation to the grieving neighborhood.
"We still feel the sadness. It's just so hard for us to understand how this happened," said Cindy Hill, who knew Moore for more than 20 years.
The public outcry that followed Moore's death drew attention to problems with speeding and recklessness on Seven Courts Drive.
Initially, the Parkville police precinct stationed additional police officers along the roadway. A speed display device was later temporarily installed, followed by a permanent speed camera in Seven Oaks Elementary's school zone.
Nearly 12 weeks after Moore's death, police announced charges against 25-year-old French, a resident of the unit block of Sandstone Court in Perry Hall, as well as the 1600 block of Denise Drive in Bel Air.
State's Attorney Scott Shellenberger told Patch that the lengthy investigation was the result of gathering "enough evidence."
Neighbors of Moore expressed relief after the arrest, but continued to grieve. "So many people have suffered from this, so many," Hill said.
Do you agree with the sentence? Tell us how the hit-and-run case impacted the larger Perry Hall community in the comments.

December 31, 2000/2003: Chris Robinson marries Kate Hudson and Natalie Imbruglia marries Daniel Johns (respectively)
New Year's Eve bred romance for two pairs of rock royalty. In 2000, Chris Robinson, frontman of the blues-rockers the Black Crowes, married actress Kate Hudson in Aspen, Colorado. They rang out a pivotal year in Hudson's career: she had just starred as Penny Lane in Almost Famous, Cameron Crowe's heartwarming ode to music journalism, for which she would soon receive an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress. The role was a clear union of her genetic gifts: mother Goldie Hawn was an Academy Award-winning actress herself, and father Bill Hudson was a rock musician.
Three years later, two Australian music celebrities wed on the same night. Soap actress turned singer-songwriter Natalie Imbruglia, who hit international fame with her 1977 cover of the Ednaswap song "Torn," married Silverchair frontman Daniel Johns in a beachside ceremony in Port Douglas, Queensland. John was a notable young talent himself; though Silverchair were once derided for their similarities to Nirvana, Johns earned a spot in Rolling Stone's list of the 25 Most Underrated Guitarists.
Sadly, both couples have since divorced, but at least they rang in the New Year in style.
December 25, 2006: James Brown dies after being diagnosed with severe pneumonia
The Godfather of Soul led one of the most eventful lives in pop history: he was arrested for theft as a teenager, married four times, was involved in a much-reported high-speed car chase in the 1980s, spent years in prison, stole the show from the Rolling Stones (and any other artists who dared cross his stage), and pioneered funk music. His vivacious, inexhaustible charisma made him one of the greatest live performers of all time, as seen in his legendary T.A.M.I. Show set of 1964.
Brown got his start in show business in the mid-1950s with a R&B singing group called the Gospel Starlighters; the group changed their named to the Flames and scored a hit with track "Please, Please, Please" in 1956. Brown's self-financed live LP, 1963's Live at the Apollo, made him an international star; in the 1960s, he released two of his signature funk tunes, "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag" and "I Got You (I Feel Good)," winning a Grammy for the former. His career vacillated from highs to lows, from being one of the first inductees into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1986 to serving a prison term in same decade.
Brown died in Atlanta on Christmas Day 2006, from severe pneumonia. He was 73.

Department of Mathematical Sciences
Technical report #6/2011
Probabilistic Thinking: Presenting Plural Perspectives
Egan J Chernoff, University of Sasketchwan, Canada
Bharath Sriraman, The University of Montana
Probabilistic Thinking: Presenting Plural Perspectives (PT: PPP) will serve four main purposes. First, in 2010 research will have been in the Contemporary Period for nearly 20 years and, as such, we contend it is no longer premature to evaluate historically the significance of probability research in this period. Second, to address the volume and diversity (and the historical evaluation) of the research in the Contemporary Period, the structure (and the title) of this book are derived from cubism. Whereas a cubist artwork presents multiple perspectives, which represents the subject in a greater context, the different sections of this book will present a variety of perspectives, which will represent the subject (i.e., probabilistic thinking) in a greater context. Further, each of the sections of the book will be comprised of multiple chapters, which will also represent a variety of subjects (i.e., the different sections of the book) in greater context. Third, and within the forward looking spirit of the monograph series "Advances in Mathematics Education," the structure of PT: PPP will allow for an international group of scholars to begin to define the next Period of research in probabilistic thinking. Fourth, we plan, with this book, to contribute to the major pieces of literature on probabilistic thinking, as detailed above. To achieve the four main purposes, the content of the ten sections, consisting of anywhere between 5 to 10 chapters, has been strategically chosen and will now been commented on and justified in turn. The book is planned in two volumes given its substantial scope. A sound synthesis of the existing research on probabilistic thinking is presented in this prospectus in addition to a sneak preview of the developing Table of Contents.
Keywords: Probability; Interpretations of Probability; Probabilistic Thinking

SARANAC LAKE — A domestic argument turned violent early Tuesday, with a woman shot as her children sat nearby.
Saranac Lake Police Department Chief Bruce Nason would not release her first name, but he said her husband, Oleg Tchernytchenko, 35, was arrested, arraigned and charged with first-degree assault, a felony, and three counts of endangering the welfare of a child.
Three small children were home and two of them sitting with or near their mother when the shotgun was fired just before 1:50 a.m. Tuesday, the chief said.
"The children range in age from 5 1/2 months to age 4.
"They were all in the living room, and two were on the couch or next to the couch when she was shot."
Police say Mr. Tchernytchenko pointed a loaded shotgun at his wife, with his finger on the trigger, in the midst of a heated argument.
"He had the shotgun; it was loaded. He pointed it at her. She grabbed the barrel to push it away, and the gun discharged," Nason said Tuesday afternoon.
The gunshot hit her hand, but the injury was not considered life-threatening.
Mrs. Tchernytchenko called 911.
"(The call) came in at 1:50 a.m. and was first reported as a head injury," Nason said. "But when rescue personnel got there, they realized it was a hand injury from a gunshot. The victim met the rescue workers at the door when they arrived."
Mrs. Tchernytchenko was taken by ambulance to Adirondack Medical Center and then brought to Fletcher Allen for surgery on the injured hand.
She was still at the hospital as police investigated. Her husband was taken into custody, arraigned and sent to Franklin County Jail.
The three children were taken into the care of Franklin County Child Protective Services.
"We were not able to locate anyone in the area that is family," Nason said.
