Best. Cake. Ever.
Redditor azimir submitted a photo of his birthday cake to reddit, and I couldn't help but share with the whole class. From the comments, I gather that the baker's son is a Linux geek and hooked him up with some code to decorate the cake. The baker is as yet unidentified, but I'll be sure to update this post if that changes.
Go join in on the fun in the comments, and vote it up. If ever a cake deserved the top spot, this is likely that cake.
Update: The baker is Leah Wendt, and it was her daughter, a developer, who advised her to use bash script. See her comment below.

Baker's identity
I am the maker of the Linux cake. The comments on Reddit are a little off; I am a female and my daughter is a developer. She is not a Linux geek however, so while she was able to advise me to use Bash Script she couldn't write a program in it off the top of her head. So I did google searches for the scripts I wanted in my program and pieced it together.
Thanks for your very kind comment about the cake.

If so how do you reduce it, any plugin or anything you can recommend?
I get so much lately it's driving me crazy so any assistance is very much appreciated.
Thanks for clearing that up.

Why users still make use of to read news papers when in this technological world the whole thing
is existing on net?
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

LOL. She can't keep her hands off him.
LOL. She can't keep her hands off him.
Fashion awards of the female guests. There were some interesting gowns, though to me, many were underwhelming or a little off. All my opinion, of course. Here's a gallery of pictures. I would link directly to individual pictures, but I don't think I'm able to.
Best dressed: Queen Margarethe of Denmark. She always has interesting gowns in interesting colors, some which work, some which don't. Today's did. The color was lovely, and the cut was very flattering.
Honorable mention: Princess Madeleine. Nice color and shape. Not a huge fan of all the ruffles, but she managed to pull it off.
Biggest WTF were you thinking?: Infanta Elena of Spain. She would move drastically up my list if she would take off her bedazzled bolero and whatever that is in her hair. I just have no words.
Co-Honorable mention: Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands. The huge ruffles around the neck is was did her in. The sparkly dark red dress was nice otherwise.
Co-Honorable mention: Queen Sonja of Norway. The enormous pleated cape/bat wings ruined what otherwise is a lovely dress.
Most disappointing: Queen Rania of Jordan. Her dress was fabulous, and she's easily one of the most stunning women in the world. But when she has access to beautiful jewelry, why would she wear only a small tiara and almost nothing else when everyone else is decked out? I guess I expected more from her.
Best Flashback of Another Era: Queen Anne Marie of Greece. The hair and dress take me back to the 80's. She didn't look bad, but just a little out of place.
Nice try: Crown Princess Mary of Denmark. The color and cut were nice, but the lace part of the dress just looked bad from a distance.
Co-Would be better in a different color: Crown Princess Letizia of Spain. In some pictures, it looked light light pink. In others, it looked nude. Either way, I didn't like her dress that light.
Co-Would be better in a different color: Crown Princess Maxima of the Netherlands. I don't think she has the right coloring to wear steel gray and beige. Stunning otherwise.

More pics
My biggest WTF outfit is Mabel's (#17). A royal wedding really is not the place to try and look edgy (um, I guess that was what she was going for). Friso looks disgusted.
I thought Charlene Wittstock looked great and outglammed many of the royals.

I should've guessed there was a thread also for this on FSU even though I didn't notice it until now.
Really enjoyed it! We were having a 'wedding studio and dinner thingy' just for this with a bunch of friends. Seeing the royalty is always and both Princess Victoria and his groom looked lovely and very much in love, awww.

Margrethe of Denmark
Anne-Marie of Greece
Maxima of the Netherlands
Madeleine of Sweden
Martha-Louise of Norway
Mathilde of Belgium
Tatiana of Greece
Sophia of Spain
Oh, girl!
Elena of Spain (just the bolero, the gown itself was lovely)
Laurentien of the Netherlands (too much black/white vs. criss-cross, she looked like a walking Mondrian painting)
Letizia of Spain & Mary of Denmark (both washed out, the latter with a tit-screpancy with the lace, it was askew)
Beatrix of the Netherlands (I am almost sure she's worn that thing before)
Rania of Jordan (Dammit, what a waste! Sloppy asymmetrical and sloppy hair, not enough bling)
Sonia of Norway (doesn't she usually f*ck up her gowns with some sort of cape?)
Mette-Marit of Norway (too similar to last night's gown, except that was in "LIFE" game piece pink and this one was in "LIFE" game piece blue)
Mabel of Netherlands (Oh, GIRL! )
The bride herself was beyond words, picture perfect in every way!

Of all the mornings from my tummy to act up on me and rebel!! If I moved just the teeniest, it literally did the roller coaster thing on me. Took two Gravol and that took care of the better part of the day for me.
Which of course means I've been playing major catch up on things. Damn being on Dial Up and not being able to watch any of the videos. I really hope some of today's Wedding is put up over at YouTube by someone. It'll take forever to download for me, but at least I'll get to see it eventually.
Victoria looked absolutely glorious today. Just stunning and, as someone else already said upthread, picture perfect. Loved her dress, the bouquet and, despite much moaning and groaning over at The Royal Forums once it was announced Victoria would be wearing the Cameo Tiara today, her Jewelery. I think the big thing was that Queen Silvia wears it a bit differently and it doesn't suit her really. Victoria wore it a bit further back on her head and that made all the difference.
The new His Royal Highness Prince Daniel also looked incredable today. Quite the dapper groom.
They both look so very happy and very much in love. Adore the picture I saw over at Hello's site for the Wedding where Victoria's brushing the back of her fingers on Daniel's cheek at one point of the ceremony. Also when she's kissing his hand. The look on Victoria's face...She looks like she's about to cry, but happy tears kind of a cry.
It also hit me last night when looking at pictures from the Gala concert...Is it just me or does Prince Carl Philip have a bit of a resemblance to Orlando Bloom? It's been twigging at me who the Prince reminds me of, but it wasn't until last night I figured it out.
Still going through all of the pictures, but...Good Lord what was Princess Elena of Spain thinking!?! That looked like a Bullfighter took a wrong turn, ended up in a Gay Pride Parade and got an ambush makeover as a result!!
No...I take that back. She would have looked far better if that *had* happened!!
I wonder if during the break in the festivites the various male members of the Danish and Dutch Royal Families were furiously trying to find out the results from today at the World Cup. Both teams were playing and it was a must win for Denmark, so...Just wondering.
The pictures over at Daylife of the Crown Couples of Denmark, The Netherlands and Norway w/their elder children who were Bridesmaids/Pageboys are adorable. Little Prince Christian of Denmark looked too sweet in his little sailor suit.
Happy that Mary wore the Ruby Parure, as that's my favourite tiara out of all of the Tiaras I've seen the Royal Ladies wear over the years. This might be the first time she's worn it outside of Denmark too according to over at The Royal Forums.
The Banquet's going on now and pictures from that are up over at Daylife...
Crown Princess Victoria and Daniel Westling's Wedding Coverage Pictures at Daylife
Oh and also here's Hello's page for the Wedding...
Hello Magazine ~ The Swedish Royal Wedding
And now I'm off to keep catching up as best I can.
redecilla goyesca - no up enough to be a piconera one, I think - and completely right for that Goyesco Bolero she was wearing. She loves to put a spanish touch in her dresses and she gets lot of thumb ups here for being so castiza (to have a traditional flair)
But I guess that skating fans being subjected season after season to fake Spanish attires can´t enjoy true stylized Spanish tradition when they see it
I Blame Virtue/Moir and Canada but beavers, I luuurve beavers, so they surely can dress and understand Spanish way
Seriously now:
I agree Letizia´s colour looked too wash up for her, the dress was ok. Queen Sofía was elegant and proper as usually, and when it comes to Infanta Cristina I´m always looking her husband so I guess she wasn´t wearing anything outrageous, her sister has the shocking act attributed.
I loved Maxima of Holland dress
The bride looked stunning, her husband is really cute and has some Harry-Potter charm about him. Her brother
As LadyNit said, tons of big hair but it was the right moment for that I guess
Zorry my english, I´m a verrrrrry rude spaÑish
For those of us, like me, who weren't able to see the broadcast online earlier today, here's a link to the highlights of the day over at YouTube...
YouTube ~ Highlights of the Royal Wedding of Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden and Daniel Westling
edited to add...Sweetsparky, for me, the big problem w/Elena's outfit isn't that it's Spanish in design. I actually adore boleros and my family knows if I have an excuse to wear one as a part of my outfit for the occasion, I'll go for it. However w/Elena, it was a case of just too much. The bolero would have been fine if it had only the diamond design on it, to off set the all pink of the dress, and there wouldn't have been a problem.
W/the full on Bullfighter accents on the shoulders though, it was just too much and turned what could have been a really incredable ensemble into a Hot Mess. I liked what Elena had on covering her bun though, which I know I'm in the minority of, but I did.
I didn't see Princess Mabel until earlier tonight thanks to Supper and cleaning up afterwards. Oh dear Lord in Heaven what was that girl thinking!?! Hands down, the Worst Dressed of the Wedding Guests bar none!!
Someone posted this over at The Royal Forums and knew all of you would like to see it too. It's Crown Prince Fredrick of Denmark taking a picture of his wife Crown Princess Mary and Crown Princess Maxima of the Netherlands.
Okay Ladies...Say CHEESE!!!
I don't know why, but that just tickles my funny bone and makes me smile. I think maybe because they're photographed all the time. Still...It is a cute picture.

It waas a lovely wedding. We had champagne in our wedding studio, and Swedish food, fish and meat balls.
Daniel completely won us over his side, he seemed so genuinely in love. They were radiating happiness. The Swedish Royal wedding is a big thing here in Finland, too. We could see it from two different tv channels, and today they will re-show the best parts.
IIRC the female bishop is not only female, she is also lesbian and married to another woman.
Crown princess Victoria looked beautiful in her elegant outfit (WOW!!!) and Daniel was handsome. She had a wonderful tiara, which is the one that Napoleon gave to his wife Josephine (whose granddaughter married Oscar I, that is the way Bernadottes got it, as far as I have understood).
You can watch almost the whole day on the site of the Swedish broadcaster SVT: http://svt.se/detkungligabrollopet The video that comes up when you open the page seems to be the ceremony from the arrival of the bride onwards, but there are other videos of highlights of the day below.
The un-geoblocked videos will only be available until Monday.
Could someone please translate the sense of the Swedish portion of Prince Daniel 's speech to his bride?
What I could understand brought me to tears!
His joy in her, and their evident love for one another, is a beautiful thing.
Someone over at YouTube put up Daniel's speech w/subtitles. Bless them!!
Two words. Have. Kleenex!!

Shaggy icon Shaun White, fresh from winning a gold medal in the halfpipe -- which sounds like it should be illegal but isn't -- popped up on last night's Colbert Report to share some good-natured fun at the expense of figure skaters everywhere.
The highlight came when Colbert asked White why, as opposed to snowboarders, figure skaters often cry at the end of their routines, to which White surmised they're probably thinking "I wore this outfit and I still didn't even win."

Oakley Big Day Out Sk8
What a beautiful day out in Ebina! After the consecutive rainy days, 10/23 was such a perfect breakout day to throw a Skate Event. It took place in Ebina's X-Dome Indoor Skate Park, which is one of the largest arenas domestically. 41 amateur skaters attended, including the winners of 15 tournaments from 5 different continents and 25 girls from open entry. They all gave their best shot at Oakley's Big Day Out, supported by AJSA.
In the groove of DJ and Hip Hop, the contestants began their practice routines which prepared them for the finals. The winner of this tournament will be honored as the "#1 Amateur Skater" in Japan.
The time given to each was only 1 minute, which everyone thought was a very strict time setting to demonstrate the best performance. Due to the time limit, or maybe the explosive atmosphere the contestants seems to struggle during the routine. But, when the 8 year old (the youngest of all) Sejiri Ryo entered the ramp, the crowd just went crazy. After completing the 1st trial without any mistakes, he conquered the 2nd in stable condition to win the Pre-Final.
Girls/Kids/Jr division started in the early afternoon and everyone noticed the level of their performance, especially in the Girls division is getting polished each year. Out of all, Sayaka Iino (9 years old) was just marvelous. As the result, no one could stop this returning Champion from winning the championship in 2 consecutive years. Plus, she received the "wildcard entry" into the Finals (held on same day) and become one of the 17 Finalists to skate for the "#1 Amateur in Japan".
When the "Final Trial" came, the crowds cheering and the scratching beat from the DJ was at it's peak. Shinji Ohta (13 years old) winner of Touhoku Circuit, Andre Ogawa and Reiji Sasaki were all tied for the championship in the Kantou Circuit.
After a performance from all of the contestants, the judges struggled in their scoring because of the magnificent demonstration that was given by team Oakley. Unfortunately, our team captain Junichi Arahata refrained from performing due to an injury, but is still one of the Japan's top skaters. Junnosuke Yonesaka, Taito Morimoto, and the youngest of all, Kentaro Iwamoto gave the "Magical Skating Moment" for the crowds who gathered at this event.
It's time to announce the Winners of the event! The winner in each Girls/Kids/Jr division were called up in front of the crowds. Then came a time to announce the "#1 Amateur skater" in Japan as it became an historical moment, as the youngest contestant of all Ryo Sejiri (8 years old) was called up to the stage. This Oakley Big Day Out gave such a great impact toward the Japan's Skateboard population. For sure, every audience member sensed that "The next generation is here".
While the Skating population is striving towards the increase in Japan, with events like this it can help bring back and even create Skateboard fans. Oakley is hoping that someday, the "Japan-Made" skater can conquer the Major events such as X-Games and World Cup. Continuingly, Oakley will throw in the Best Effort to accomplish this goal, and to make Japanese people give even greater attention toward the world of "Skateboarding".

Q. As we celebrate another Oktoberfest this weekend, could you please refresh my memory as to who started it and when? -- T.S., of Belleville
A. It's now a continuing source of amusement for German revelers in Belleville.
"How in the world can they celebrate Oktoberfest in September?" I hear people ask every year.
But as every lederhosen lover knows, it wasn't that way originally. When the Belleville Jaycees held the very first brewhaha, then-Belleville Mayor Richard Brauer tapped the golden keg smack-dab in the middle of the month for which it is named -- Oct. 17, 1980.
The idea was to celebrate the reopening of the old Stag Brewery. It had been shuttered by Carling National Breweries in May 1980, but G. Heilemann Brewing Co. bought it and announced it would resume production in October. So what better way to toast the good news than to have thousands of good Chermans flock downtown and raise a stein or two of their hometown drink?
"We are promoting Belleville and its biggest industry," said Tom Schrag of the Jaycees, which planned to use the proceeds from the event to help the city develop a community park. "We want to show off Stag Beer to the community."
And show it off they did with a two-day gala of bratwurst, oom-pah and suds that immediately exceeded expectations. The very first year, the Jaycees thought they had bought too much wurst but wound up having to buy more. In 1992, the group apologized for being too successful and said they would be better ready for bigger crowds the following year.
There was a bit of sadness in 1988 when Brauer tapped the final keg of Belleville-brewed Stag, but the festival continued unabated. During its early days, it even brought in big-name acts like Eddie Rabbitt as it began transitioning in the late 1980s to a September start to take advantage of better weather.
So today more crowds are expected to enjoy the gemutlichkeit of the 34th annual affair, which is now sponsored by the Belleville Exchange Club, Belleville Sister Cities and Belleville Shrine Club. Final activities include a car show all day and dancing to Sh-Boom from 2-6 followed by Super Jam from 7-11. Prost.
GOT CAPS?: Seems to always happen. As soon as I flatly state that plastic caps are about as valuable as a $3 bill, someone pops up to prove me wrong. Here's the latest:
To celebrate its 75th anniversary in business, Prairie Farms Dairy Inc. currently is running an Our Caps, Your Cause promotion that gives area organizations 5 cents for every Prairie Farms cap redeemed.
You don't even have to save the cap itself. Just look for a code number under the cap label on specially marked milk jugs and juice containers. Then, go to www.prairiefarms.com, pick your charity from the drop-down menu and enter the codes. The nickels will be posted to the participating nonprofit account.
I'm also told that within just the past few weeks, St. Luke's Parish in Belleville has, like Roosevelt School a couple of years ago, begun collecting all kinds of plastic caps to turn into a bench.
CHECKER-MATE?: Not surprisingly, several people again confused me with columnist Wally Spiers after his recent columns on whether the St. Louis Arena/Checkerdome had a checkered past -- at least, as far as the roof was concerned. Thanks to B. Stephan Urban for the Highlands Amusement Park memories and Jim Filanda for all the old Arena photos.
They inspired me to do my own investigation as to whether Ralston-Puritan ever put its trademark checkerboard pattern on the roof. This was the closest I came to a definitive answer:
"Ralston-Purina, which took over the team and building when the Blues were in the red, added a sophisticated sound system and, the clincher, air conditioning," Bob Broeg, a late dean of St. Louis sportswriters, wrote once. "They also briefly rechristened her the Checkerdome, a name that, thankfully, was never immortalized by red and white squares facing skyward."
A 'VEAL' FIND: Sandy Gansmann tells me that Tony D., of Belleville, can find calf's (veal) liver at Dierberg's in Shiloh, although it is frozen. Another caller suggested Eckert's, but they told me they do not handle it.
IMUS WATCH: I recently was so intent on telling Judith Farrow, of Collinsville, how to hear Don Imus on the radio, I forgot to mention that he can be watched on the Fox Business channel every morning if she has cable or satellite.
Today's trivia
What was the first event held at the St. Louis Arena?
Answer to Thursday's trivia: Although perhaps best known for her decade on "The View," Star Jones became the first black to host a syndicated TV courtroom show when the lawyer and journalist presided over "Jones & Jury." It lasted only one season, but Jones quickly hooked up with "Inside Edition," for whom she led the coverage of the O.J. Simpson murder case.

No rain, only a little sun and very limited humid was a welcomed site for triathletes in the Sharon Triathlon 2012 at Lake Massapoag Sunday.
"The Sharon Triathlon has been around for almost 25 years," said race director Tim Richmond, who is in his fifth year. "We have six races in total. Dartmouth, two in Hopkinton, Onset, Sharon and Winchendon. Our oldest athlete today is a 77-year-old man and our youngest is 15-year old girl."
Richmond used to compete and says he wanted to bring quality races to Massachusetts.
Sunday;s course started with a 1/2 mile swim, a 12.3 mile bike ride which went through the towns of Easton, Mansfield, Focboro and Sharon, ending with a 4.4 mile run.
The men's top finishers were Worcester's Craig Mitchell in first lace, coming in at 1:12.31, Watertown's Jorge Martinez was second at 1:13.11 and East Weymouth's Les Gardner third Place at 1:13.17.
Steve Cox was the top Sharon finisher in 19th place at 1:20.14.
Other top local finishers in the top 25 were Foxborough's Dale Stephanos, fourth, 1:13.25, Westwood's David Fredrickson, ninth, 1:19.05, Stoughton's James Magaldi, 11th, 1:19.30, Medfield's Kevin Barton, 1:19.55, and Dover's Greg Bodkins, 15th, 1:20.14, and Sharon's Eoghan Daley, 25th, 1:22.48.
Meg MacSwan of Chestnut Hill was the first women's finisher in a time of 1:19.58, good enough for 14th overall. Canton's Beth Allen was the second women's finisher in 29th place at 1:23.18, while Salem's Brandi Dion was the third women's finisher in 1:24.01.

- " The location was good and the bathrooms clean, but the beds were not! We were bitten by something that seemed to be bed bugs. And also, I didn't like it when the staff got mad if someone had complaints on the hostel staff and service or if you decided not to take the hostel tours. And most importantly, the staff meddle their personal matters and interests with the clients that stay in the hostel, so I felt really unconfortable. "

- " I stayed in Dina's Hostel for a few weeks when I first moved to Cairo and it was great. Very friendly and helpful staff, perfect location and comfortable rooms. I would definitely recommend Dina's Hostel to anyone visiting Cairo. "

By JOHN SHINN
NORMAN — Oklahoma's up-and-down season was at rock bottom with a little over a minute left in the first half. It was trailing Iowa State — the same team that hadn't won a game since late September — by a touchdown at Owen Field.
The Sooners' condition was grave due to a sputtering offense, a depleted defense and low energy.
Then, Jalen Saunders caught a punt at his own 9-yard line. The complexion of the entire afternoon changed with what Saunders did after securing the ball.
The Sooners went from dormant to dominant in a 48-10 victory.
"After that, things started rolling downhill," Saunders said.
It was his 91-yard punt return for a touchdown that jolted the Sooners out of hibernation.
Prior to Saunders' punt return, OU (8-2, 5-2 Big 12) had 110 yards of total offense. It finished the day with 405. Before it, Iowa State (1-9, 0-7) had a seven-point lead and snowballing optimism it could get its first victory at Owen Field since 1990.
After it?
Well, OU scored 38 points — five touchdowns and a field goal — on its next six possessions.
How the offensive onslaught occurred was the other oddity Saturday. Offensively, the Sooners went full circle. Blake Bell left the game early in the second quarter after taking a hit from Iowa State's Willie Scott on a 5-yard run. He did not return and OU coach Bob Stoops did not reveal the extent of the injury.
But Trevor Knight entered and OU's offense found a gear it hasn't seen all season in the second half. Damien Williams rushed for 128 yards and two touchdowns. Knight ran for 123 yards and a touchdown. Brennan Clay needed just seven carries to accumulate 86 yards. All three scored on touchdown runs of 56 yards or more.
"That's what we came in today to do, run the ball," Williams said.
The Sooners were one-dimensional in every sense, but that one dimension was working at a very high level. OU planned to use Knight at some point in the game. He entered for a couple plays in last Thursday's loss to Baylor. But it was in a limited package.
How much OU did outside of that is a coaches' secret, but the running game found another gear with Knight at the helm. He only threw for 61 yards, but he never came close to turning the ball over, which was what cost him the job after two games.
"Anytime you go into a ballgame — that's why veterans play so well because they've been through it so many times, they've seen every look. So every time you play, you get a little more comfortable out there," Knight said. "I felt a lot more comfortable today, still pressed a little bit but overall a lot more comfortable than in the first two games."
By the fourth quarter, things were going so well OU actually gave Kendal Thompson his first game action. The sophomore engineered an eight-play, 90-yard scoring drive.
It was mop-up duty, but impressive nonetheless.
"I thought Trevor came in and did an excellent job of being ready for the moment, executing and reading the zone read and some of those plays that we went to. And Kendal came in at the end and also did a nice job," OU coach Bob Stoops said. "Those guys, it's exciting as a coach to see guys come in who haven't played a ton and they're ready for the moment and they take advantage of it and play well."
Iowa State platooned its quarterbacks, too. Neither Grant Rohach or Sam Richardson experienced much success. Rohach threw for 179 yards on a 21-for-34 afternoon. But he was picked off twice. Richardson was 1 of 2 for nine yards, but he did have a 9-yard touchdown early in the second quarter.
But they both turned into tackling dummies in the second half. The Sooners registered five sacks with four coming in the second half.
"We played good, but we could have done better. We picked it up after the beginning," said OU linebacker Frank Shannon, who recorded two of the sacks. "It was early in the morning and everyone was still sluggish. But by the time we got it rolling, everything was pretty good."
The Sooners, who were playing their final home game Saturday, left Owen Field with the sense they had built some momentum. They'll need it heading into next Saturday's game at Kansas State.
Stoops wouldn't say whether he thought Bell would be available for that game or whether the offensive explosion OU experienced with Knight at quarterback was enough to give him the job once more.
Besides, the one play that changed the complexion of Saturday's game didn't involve OU's quarterback. Knight had already played a full quarter when Saunders went back to field the punt with 89 seconds left in the first half.
Typically when an opponent is kicking the ball on a fourth-and-six from midfield, OU just leaves its defense on the field. It doesn't want to be susceptible to a fake. Stoops took a gamble.
"I felt if they had a fake dialed up with a minute-something to go that that wouldn't be a good option for them. I took the chance," he said.
It worked and just about everything that followed did for OU as well.

Field Trip and Special Event Funds
Please see below for Application Guidelines.
Field Trip Funds
Limited funds are available for class-related field trips to off-campus sites, usually within 100 miles of Greencastle. Faculty members are encouraged to propose field trips designed to enrich the work of a specific course or academic program. Recent field trips have taken students to museums, plays, films, concerts, and architectural sites in Indiana and nearby states. In recent years, a few weekend trips to museums in New York City and Washington, D.C. have received partial funding, with students covering a substantial portion of the cost.
Attendance Policy / Missing Other Classes
Faculty members may not require student attendance for trips held outside the regularly scheduled class meeting times. We know from experience, however, that if students learn about a trip at the beginning of the semester, most will adjust their schedules in order to be able to attend.
Faculty members are cautioned to avoid scheduling field trips that conflict with regularly scheduled classes. If a trip will conflict with students' other class meetings, faculty members should
a) prepare a note well in advance for students to take to their other professors, and
b) explain carefully and more than once that students must ask their other professors, in person, about the possibility of missing a class meeting and about the best way to make up missed work.
If a student's professors are unwilling to make an exception to the absence policy (or if they are unwilling to reschedule an exam), the student must either forego the field trip or accept the consequences of missing a class meeting.
Students unable to attend field trips may not be penalized but may be asked to complete an alternative assignment.
Field trips will be funded first-come, first-served. Modest requests ($50-250) will be given priority, and some funds will be set aside in the fall to support field trips during second semester.
Special Event Funds
Limited funds are available for class-related events, such as end-of-semester performances or local speakers invited to attend a class meeting. Please apply for these funds at least two weeks ahead of time.
Faculty members should apply to the Public Occasions Committee (Keith Nightenhelser, firstname.lastname@example.com, x 4712) to request speakers for whom the cost will be substantial (over $100) or to schedule an all-campus performance or lecture.
Applications may be sent via email to Becky Wallace (firstname.lastname@example.com).
Please submit your application at least two weeks prior to the date of your trip or special event, and include the following information:
- Course number and title.
- Proposed date for the field trip or special event.
- Brief explanation of how the trip or event will support the work in your course.
- Rough budget for the trip or event, including anticipated cost of transportation, tickets, meals, etc., and approximate total cost.
- Proposed share of cost (about 30% of total) to be charged to student accounts.
Approval of applications for Field Trip and Special Event Funds will be made by email, usually within a week of submission of your application. If you have questions, please contact Dave Berque, Dean of Academic Life (ext. 4601, firstname.lastname@example.com).
1. To reserve a van, contact the University Service Center (ext. 4020).
2. Student drivers must receive certification from Public Safety (ext. 4261) before they may drive a van. For trips out of state, one adult must ride in each van.
3. Whenever possible, use a University commercial credit card to cover expenses and submit original, itemized receipts to Becky Wallace in Academic Affairs.
4. For expenses not charged to a University commercial credit card, original, itemized receipts and a signed voucher sheet must be submitted to Becky Wallace in Academic Affairs.
5. Faculty members must submit a list of students participating in the field trip to Becky Wallace prior to the trip. No reimbursements may be made until the list of students is received.

Feds Fail on Immigration...Again
PSN on May 18, 2006 - 1:03pm
The Bush Administration's latest move on immigration reform is yet another attempt likely to fail, at least in part because it ignored input from the people most impacted. Stateline reports that a number of Governors from both parties are upset both by the continued federal dependence on the Guard and by the lack of consultation from the White House before Bush proposed using National Guard forces as a stop-gap measure:
Gov. Bill Richardson (D) of New Mexico said he was concerned that the White House did not consult with governors in the weeks leading up to his Monday announcement. "A phone call three hours before delivering a speech is not the same as cooperation and consultation," Richardson said Monday in a statement.
Other Governors, including Arnold Schwarzenegger (R-CA), Kathleen Sebelius (D-KS), Jon Huntsman (R-UT), and Jon Corzine (D-NJ), voiced concern that with Guard troops already being relied upon heavily in Iraq that additional missions are the last thing they need to be thinking about -- especially when their own states might face natural disasters.
Bush's plan relies on voluntary assistance from states to send their Guard soldiers into the command of a different Governor. And it also relies on Governors in border states buying into the program.
Perhaps most ironically, Bush is pushing the measure to supplement the border patrol with Guardsmen only until more border patrol can be hired, trained, and deployed. The reason there are not more border patrol already trained and working is that Bush underfunded his own law and scrapped over 9,000 border patrol positions in the process.
As far as shutting down the border goes, Bush's plan is ill-conceived, hastily thrown together, and only partially addressing a shortfall he created.
Even worse, his plan fails to include proven, effective, and fair measures to reduce problems stemming from illegal immigration while protecting American workers. The best way to deal with the immigration issue is to undermine incentives that employers have to hire undocmented workers. In the current system, most states and the federal government will not enforce wage rules or safety regulations for undocumented workers, and workers risk deportation for raising concerns. Protecting all workers would increase worker pay, shut down sweatshops, and remove a major reason employers hire undocumented workers--so that they can exploit their illegal status.
The Los Angeles Times has already noted the worthiness of this approach as a way to deal with immigration. Isn't it time we gave it some fair consideration?

Former Allman Brothers band member dies in Florida
BRADENTON, Fla. (AP) - Former Allman Brothers Band guitarist Dan Toler has died following a two-year battle with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, otherwise known as ALS or Lou Gehrig's disease. He was 65.
Family friend Steve Fayette confirmed earlier this week that Toler passed away in his sleep.
Toler, who is originally from Indiana, joined the Allman Brothers in 1979. In 1982, he joined The Gregg Allman band along with his brother, David "Frankie" Toler.
Dan Toler played on the Allman Brothers' 1979 comeback album "Enlightened Rogues" and also "Reach for the Sky."
Both Tolers played in the band's "Brothers of the Road." The Tolers spent the rest of the 1980s touring and recording the gold album "I'm No Angel" with The Gregg Allman Band.

April 2, 1999
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Andi Lyons hit her first homerun as a Seminole tonight as the Florida State softball team beat the FAMU Rattlerettes 2-1 at the FAMU Softball complex in Tallahassee. The Lady Seminoles tied the series at 1-1 after losing to FAMU in February, 3-2.
"We had an overall good game tonight," Head Coach Dr. JoAnne Graf said. "We still aren't hitting the ball like we need to but we're playing more like a team and that makes a big difference."
FAMU jumped out to an early lead in the second inning off a Florida State error but the Lady Seminoles answered in the fourth inning. Lyons started the hitting and scoring for FSU tonight with her solo homerun over the center field fence to tie the score 1-1. Danielle Cox then hit in Kimmy Carter in the fifth inning on a sacrifice bunt to clinch the win for the Lady Seminoles. Lyons was 1-3 from the plate as Dana Bailey went 1-2 with a stolen base as Christy Cerecedes added a stolen base. Jen White received the win and complete game, improving her record to 11-12, striking out seven batters and allowing only three hits.
FSU improves to 25-19-1 as FAMU drops to 19-24. The Lady Seminoles will travel to Georgia this weekend for a double-header with ACC rival Georgia Tech in Atlanta on Saturday, April 3 beginning at 1:00pm. FSU will then head to Athens for a 1:00pm start with the Georgia Bulldogs on Sunday, April 3.

James G. Klingensmith, a city kid who became a local icon through a four-decade photojournalism career best known for snapping Maz's iconic Game 7 home run, died of natural causes Monday at Kane Regional Center in Scott Township. He was 100.
Affectionately known as "Pap" and "Klinger" to a large network of family, friends and area media professionals, Klingensmith captured Pirates second baseman Bill Mazeroski's excited rush around the bases after slugging the game-winning homer against the favored Yankees at Forbes Field in 1960. It remains the only walkoff homer in Game 7 World Series history.
the Scott resident described that he was able to capture that shot on little more than a gut feeling. "I just knew something big was going to happen that day," he said.
With his oldest son in tow, Klingensmith asked a Forbes Field groundskeeper to borrow a ladder so they could climb to the grandstand rooftop behind home plate. He kept the ladder with him so he could get back down—and so no other photographer could climb up.
The vantage point led to a series of shots that earned Klingensmith, a retired Pittsburgh Post-Gazette photographer, a place at the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y. His photo of Mazeroski rounding second base with one leg in the air, waving his batting helmet, has also been sculpted into a statue commemorating the Bucco, who is revered as the only player to end a World Series Game 7 with a home run.
His oldest son Jim was with him the day he captured the photo and last summer when he was honored during the statue's unveiling. He was also by his side every Sunday at the dog tracks and shared a home with him for the last five years.
"In all those times, all those years, I remember my father always had a smile on his face," his son said. "He always treated people the way he wanted to be treated. He was a friendly guy, and he genuinely cared about people."
While Klingensmith had no qualms about doing what he had to for the best shot of Mazeroski rounding the bases, he'd never take a photo that would hurt another person. According to Pittsburgh media lore, a city editor once told Klingensmith to go take a photo of two public figures drinking in a bar (when they shouldn't have been). He called the bar first and said someone was going there to take their picture, so they left. Later, when he didn't have the shot, he told the city editor they had already left and conveniently left out that he tipped them off.
"He never wanted to take a photo if it didn't make someone look good. He was an old-time news guy. He was a gentleman," Jim Jr. said.
Several stories shared Monday among those who knew him, as well as those who attended his 100th birthday party, revealed that there was no single subject or story that led to a pinnacle moment for Klingensmith.
"He was a real pro whose instincts and work ethic defined his art during the golden age of journalism," said Bob Dvorchak, a veteran reporter who wrote an award-winning series on the 1960 Pirates and interviewed Klingensmith. "I know how honored he was to be among family and friends for his 100th birthday party. It was like a final snapshot in the sun. We won't see his kind again."
The best part of his 100 years, Klingensmith said earlier this month, was "walking down the streets of Pittsburgh and getting to know a person," he said. "It was meeting so many wonderful people."
He was born July 4, 1911 in Mount Washington to James C. and Amelia Klingensmith and attended South Hills High School. He was part of a City League championship football team in 1930, raised his family in Brookline, worked a brief stint at Kaufmann's, and covered a range of local and national athletes and politicians before retiring at 74.
"Even after retirement, he did side jobs," another son Jack said. "He loved the work."
"He was the master of the malaprop in an endearing way. A true Pittsburgh character," said Bill Moushey, a veteran investigative reporter and director of the Innocence Institute at Point Park University. Moushey previously worked with Klingensmith, his son Jack at WPXI and has been longtime friends with Jim Jr.
"I met him in the late 1970s, shortly after moving to Pittsburgh to edit Pittsburgher Magazine. He took my picture and became my friend. He never talked about himself, but could spin a yarn with the best of them. He virtually had an anecdote about everyone, whether they were his pal, Art Rooney Sr. or cleaning staff at a hotel," Moushey said.
Alby Oxenreiter, a WPXI-TV sports anchor and family friend, attended Klingensmith's birthday party to deliver a proclamation from Allegheny County Executive Dan Onorato, declaring the recent Fourth of July "James Klingensmith Day."
This week he remembered Klingensmith and his "remarkable 100-year legacy."
"He lived long enough to see his children's children's children and witnessed, with his own eyes, and through a camera lens, some of the incredible moments in the history of western Pennsylvania. He leaves a proud family, including three sons, 14 grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren," Oxenreiter said. "He also gave us a famous series of photographs taken in the greatest hour of Pittsburgh sports. Mr. Klingensmith left an indelible mark on our region."
Klingensmith is frequently described as the patriarch and "godfather" of his family and straight shooter among his friends. Among an eclectic mix of guests at his recent birthday party were nieces and nephews who traveled from Florida, motorcycle enthusiasts, retired U.S. Secret Service employees, former colleagues, local union leaders and family from Dubai, United Arab Emerites.
"Everybody likes him, and he likes everybody," said his middle son, Joe. "He's good with people, he knows people, and I think that's why he was a good photographer."
But the self-taught photographer, who was an honorary member of the National Press Photographers Association, said the key to a good photo is "time and patience."
"You just have to relax," he once said. "The photo always comes."
Klingensmith was also a former member of the Brookline Chamber of Commerce and coached a Brookline Little League team.
"My dad loved everyone—especially the bad kids," Jack said during his father's 100th birthday party earlier this month. "He'd go talk to judges to try to help them because he always believed that if somebody got a second chance, they could make it in life."
He is preceded in death by his wife Angeline, whom he married in 1962, his parents and other loved family and friends. He is survived by three sons Jim, Joe and Jack, 14 grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren.
Viewing services will be held from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 p.m. Thursday and Friday at Slater Funeral Home in Scott. A funeral service is scheduled for 10 a.m. Saturday at Ss. Simon and Jude on Greentree Road.
