Cheap hotels in El Arenal, Seville
Neighborhood Description
There are fewer tourists in El Arenal than in Seville's other central districts, and that's part of the neighborhood's appeal. As one might expect from a less touristy 'hood, this is not the city's most popular zone for nightlife. That said, its a great place to absorb the local vibe, and great cafés and restaurants are abundant.
The neighborhood is the city's bullfighting hub, and La Maestranza, a sizeable bullring, is a main draw. On the edge of El Arenal is the Museo de Bellas Artes.
1Adriano Boutique Sevillastar
Address Adriano, 12 (El Arenal)
The Hotel Adriano is located on a main drag near the Plaza de Toros and Real Maestranza and about a seven-minute walk from the Cathedral.
Address San Roque, 11 (El Arenal)
B&B Naranjo is the best option in the city for triple, quadruple, and even quintuple hotel rooms with en suite bathrooms and real beds (versus bunks).
3Hotel Alabarderostar
Address Zaragoza, 20 (El Arenal)
Not one detail was forgotten at the four-star Taberna del Alabardero, centrally located between the Cathedral and the Plaza de Toros.
4Hotel Europastar
Address Jimios, 5 (El Arenal)
The Hotel Europa, with only one star, is an economic choice and should be high on your list—if only for the great location between the cathedral and the Plaza Nueva.
5Hotel Simonstar
Address García de Vinuesa, 19 (El Arenal)
Rooms at the Hotel Simon are decidedly frill-free, but a central location and gorgeous architecture make this hotel a solid cheapo pick.
Address San Pedro Mártir, 1 (El Arenal)
The three-story Hotel Londres is peaceful and airy, especially compared to the tourist-trodden hotels in the saturated Santa Cruz neighborhood.
Address Gravina, 49 (El Arenal)
A friendly staff, charming young bellhops and mismatched furniture keep the Montecarlo's décor from the usual homogeneous humdrum.
8Un Patio al Surstar
Address Fernán Caballero, 7 (El Arenal)
The two-star Hotel un Patio al Sur provides an ideal minimalist respite from Seville's swirling colors and zigzagging streets.

THE PACIFIC SOUTHWEST RAILWAY MUSEUM ASSOCIATION, INC. invites you to
SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1971, 1-5 P.M. Aboard the former ferry, "M. V. Monterey"
Here's an opportunity for you to relive the golden days of the ferryboats of San Diego Bay. Aboard Star & Crescent's "M. V. Monterey," one-time North Island pedestrian-only ferry, you'll retrace the route of the San Diego & Coronado Ferry Company as well as the routes of the Point Loma Ferry Company & the South San Diego Ferry Company which with other operations were eventually merged into the Star & Crescent Boat Company. Landing sites will be visited and there'll be a stop or two.
The "M. V. Monterey" will sail to the Coronado Cays, nearest navigable point to the old South San Diego landing, to Shelter Island (Roseville was nearby), the landings on North Island and Coronado, and perhaps Ballast Point. It all began in the 1880s when the steam launch, "Della," was placed in service on the Coronado run to transport local folk to the then-new subdivisions and to the Hotel del Coronado with all its attractions. Another ferry was soon sailing northwards to Roseville, taking pleasure seekers for a ride on a steam dummy train which ran through Wabaska Canyon to Cliff House in Ocean Beach. There, visitors gathered mussels and picked strawberries. Later came the ferries to Rockwell Field (on North Island)and South San Diego (Imperial Beach).
Our vessel, the "M. V. Monterey," was built in San Diego in 1952. The largest of the boats known as squareheads and nickel snatchers, it was built primarily to transport civilian workers and sailors to and from North Island. It also has served and is serving as a substitute excursion boat. (More on the reverse side of this brochure.)
Adults..........................$ 5.50
Jr. & Sr. High students.........$ 3.75
Elem. Sch. students.............$ 2.75
- Snack bar service will be provided.
- Excursion hours are 1-5 p.m.
- Board the Monterey at the Star & Crescent Boat House, Harbor & Market.
- Historic data will be presented.
Please make all checks and money orders payable to: PSRMA Inc. Mail ticket orders to PSRMA, c/o Dave Hobson, P. 0. Box 2037, El Cajon CA 92021.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I love the look of this card. They were able to change title to reflect my bridal shower brunch, where mimosa where on the menu! The invitation sets the perfect mood for the bridal shower."
"The invitation was absolutely beautiful, the paper quality is fantastic, lots of compliments on the invitation itself. Also being from Canada I thought it would take a while to get here, however I was pleasantly surprised, it was less then 3 days!"
"Our shower invitations were beautiful - the customizing process and ordering were very user friendly - Best of all the response from the design team for 'free' approval was very impressive! We ordered on a Sunday evening and received our 'proof' within an hour that same day! We rushed our shipment and received it sooner than expected. We've received many compliments on these pretty cards. They exceeded our expectations. Definitely would recommend Wedding Paper Divas!"
"This was my second order with Wedding Paper Divas. I was so pleased with the invitations I ordered last year that when It came time to throw another shower this is the only site I used. The brides could not be more different, but I had plenty to chose from for each girl. Both times the product reflected the brides perfectly. I would order from them again."
"I received many calls from friends and family commenting on how much they "loved" the invitation to my daughter's wedding shower. From the quality of the paper to the beautiful,vivid design, this invitation deserves a 5 star rating. I will definitely use wedding paper diva's in the future."

Looking at the silver lining
Steve Janes Blog
Although the devastation from Hurricane Sandy on the East Coast has headlined the news over the past several days, and this is not an attempt to minimize the overall destruction and loss of human life, I have to admit there are some side effects that have really caught my attention.
Snow. And lots of snow.
Other reports include 26 inches in Redhouse, MD, 24 inches in Bowden WV, 24 inches in Wise, VA, 20 inches in Mt. Leconte, TN and 14 inches in Payne Gap, KY. We know the folks in upstate Pennsylvania and New York knew what to do with the snow they got.
Although the tragedy occurring on the East Coast is heartbreaking, a less serious tragedy is the fact that most of this snow is going to melt without a single snowmobile track marking it up.
This leaves many in the West wondering, with sleds loaded on trailers and ready to go, "Does Sandy have any sisters?"

Chuck Pinkey has never met an intellectually suspect right-wing idea he doesn't adore.
The Daily Mail, his source for the U.K. Met Office "End of Global Warning," story, is a conservative tabloid that condoned apartheid in SouthAfrica; that ran a story "Abortion hope after 'gay genes,'" suggesting parents could use genetic testing to plan aborting a fetus testing positive for the so-called Xq98 'gay' gene; and has run homophobic articles generating the largest number of press complaints ever received in England. The Daily Mail even ran an article saying "Just ONE cannabis joint can bring on schizophrenia as well as damaging memory" — an article debunked by the scientist who did the research. Dorothy Bishop, professor of neuroscience at Oxford, awarded the Daily Mail the "Orwellian Prize for Journalistic Misrepresentation," calling the article "the worst misrepresentation of a scientific article in a national newspaper."
For scientific authority, the Daily Mail appears to rank up with consulting your Ouija board.
Regarding Sustainable Otsego, Pinkey's slams are predictable. His solution is more fossil-fuel extraction, more deregulation (how will that make gas drilling safer?) and more Walmart-style exploitation of suppliers, employees and customers.
His dismissal of local value-added agricultural products, presumably in favor of commodity dairy, is bizarre. Wishing for a return to the past is not an economic strategy — it's a fantasy. Regrettably, no New York family dairy farm is ever again going to successfully compete with commodity milk from factory dairies. (Sad facts, but so are water supplies polluted by fracking, and just because you won't believe the facts doesn't make them untrue.)
Local dairy farmers will be forced to continue to depend on milk-price support and second jobs while they slowly go out of business. That's the modern American business model that Mr. Pinkey simultaneously embraces and bemoans. One small example of potential economic revival is for the same dairy farms to make cheese with their milk, as almost 100 upstate dairy farms are successfully doing.

Center for Photovoltaics Video (Text Version)
This is the text version for the Center for Photovoltaics video.
The video opens with the NREL logo, surrounded by "Department of Energy's NREL: National Renewable Energy Laboratory."
A scene of a city skyline at sunset. The sky is a brilliant red, and the buildings are silhouetted in shadow. The scene shifts to an image of a shadowed field, lit by a bright red sunset. The image changes to the NREL Solar Energy Research Facility (SERF), a building with a long, diagonally sloping front with large windows and solar panels on the roof.
It is our constant source of light and heat and it's essential to a sustainable energy future. The National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colorado is a global leader in developing cost-effective, solar electricity.
A montage of photos cycles through images of scientists working, the inside of the SERF, and rows of many different solar panels. The image shifts to a close-up of a woman and a panel that reads "Sarah Kurtz: Principal Scientist."
Sarah Kurtz: "I think the future of solar is very promising."
A montage of photos cycles through images of scientists at work, working on large solar panels in and outside of the laboratory.
NREL's team is the power behind internationally-recognized advancements in photovoltaics technology.
The image cuts to a shot of a man in a suit and a brightly colored tie, sitting in an office.
Larry Kazmerski: "Successes depend on the talents and the abilities and the innovation of the scientists and engineers of this organization."
The image changes to the inside of one of NREL's research facilities. A man pushes a heavily loaded cart into a room packed full of large mechanical equipment. The video briefly cuts to an image of the NREL logo, bouncing around the screen around a bright photo of the sun. The scene then cuts to an image of a man sitting next to Sarah Kurtz. Text to the side reads, "Jerry Olson: Principal Scientist."
Jerry Olson: "Everything came together. I mean the stars, the heavens, all of it."
An image of the SERF Building, covered in snow.
This is the birthplace of the world's most efficient solar cell.
Jerry stands in front of a large computer panel, attached to several machines. The video cycles through images of machines in the laboratory, and a series of hand-sized, dark black solar cells.
Jerry Olson: "This is the laboratory, you know, where we make the devices that are over 40% efficient."
NREL scientists invented the multi-junction solar cell.
Sarah holds a model, consisting of rows of specifically colored orbs, that shows the construction of a multi-junction solar cell.
Sarah Kurtz: "You'll see it alternate between the indium and the gallium…"
Individual layers of atoms are precisely placed on a tiny wafer.
Jerry holds a small dish and removes the cover. Inside is a pure black substance that catches the light.
Jerry Olson: "This is what we call a gallium-arsenide substrate."
A row of images shows the small, black multi-junction cell, outer space, and the Mars Rover.
Put this device in the sun and it produces electricity. Multi-junction cells now power nearly all space satellites and the Mars exploration rovers.
Jerry Olson: "If it'll work on Mars, we could make it work anywhere."
A scientist with gloved hands works on a black solar cell. The image then pans to one outside a building where the sun is being reflected off of a large lens.
The challenge is making it practical for use on our planet. This cell costs a lot to create, but add an inexpensive lens to concentrate the sunlight and the efficiency levels skyrocket.
The image returns to the office and the man in the suit. The text alongside his image reads "Larry Kasmerski: Director of the National Center for Photovoltaics."
Larry Kazmerski: "40% of the sun's energy is being converted into usable electricity."
The scene changes to the inside of the laboratory. A man stands in front of a computer that is hooked up to a large machine as he talks.
Rommel Noufi: "I love being part of this technology."
Images of dark, thin solar cells. In one scene, a scientist demonstrates how thin a solar cell is by bending the material back and forth.
NREL is also a pioneer in the thin-film photovoltaic field. Extremely thin layers of semi-conducting materials are deposited on the support structure.
Rommel Noufi: "And that support, we call a substrate."
The scene changes to one of a woman in a lab coat. She wears goggles as she sits at a computer.
This technology is much newer than the more common, silicon cells. But it also promises to be more cost competitive because thin-films require less of the light-absorbing materials to generate electricity.
Rommel Noufi: "This is where we grow the heart of the solar cell."
Thin-film efficiencies are close to 20% in the laboratory.
The image returns to the man in the laboratory. The text alongside him reads " Rommel Noufi: VP SoloPower and Former NREL Scientist."
Rommel Noufi: "This is a remarkable efficiency, by the way, for polycrystalline thin-film material or for this class of materials."
A split-screen image appears. On one side is a tall building, silhouetted by the sun. In the other half is a solar array, made up of several connected solar panels.
Solar cells are used outdoors in the elements. Durability is a must.
Rommel Noufi: "We want these solar cells to last for a long time, 20 years or more."
The scene changes to a man in shades who is standing outside. Several solar arrays are set up behind him. The text alongside him reads "Peter McNutt: Senior Engineer."
Peter McNutt: "Many of the manufacturers are now looking to thin-films to try to decrease the cost of making modules."
The video slowly pans over several solar arrays that are set up outside. There are several small arrays lined up in a fenced-in field. The arrays, of different sizes, shapes, and ages, are lined up side by side, all pointed towards the sun.
Industry partners send their photovoltaic systems to NREL…
Peter McNutt: "Welcome to the Outdoor Test Facility."
…To see how they endure rain, snow, hail, dust, and the passing of time.
Peter McNutt: "Their output is decreasing by about 1% per year."
Some of the modules monitored here date back decades. Others are newer developments. NREL's solar array field is striking to see.
Peter McNutt: "This is about 1,100 watts of array right here in front of me."
The video continues scrolling over the many different arrays in the Outdoor Test Facility. It travels over several different types of solar panels before focusing in on streetlights and a large panel of solar shingles.
It's one of just a handful of test facilities like it in the world. A place where engineers analyze photovoltaic products from solar street lights to shingles…
Peter McNutt: "These are a couple examples of roofing products."
…To make sure they perform.
Peter McNutt: "If you have an energy-efficient home you'd need probably two to four times this amount, this size array, to offset your entire electrical need."
The video cuts back to inside the laboratory, and focuses in on a man. The text reads "Keith Emery: Principal Engineer."
Keith Emery: "We look at all sizes, shapes, technologies. You name it, we've measured it."
A close-up of a computer screen. Several windows are open, all of which include charts and data.
When you're talking record-breaking solar cells, accuracy is everything.
Keith Emery: "The first thing we do is we measure the area."
NREL's performance characterization lab verifies photovoltaic efficiencies…
Keith Emery: "The efficiency is defined as the maximum power."
…It also looks for imperfections.
The video zooms in on a machine. Doors open up and reveal a solar cell inside. It is light with a bright blue light. Inside, a probe is reaching down to make contact with the cell.
Keith Emery: "The shutter just opened up, and you can see a probe making contact with the cell."
The doors to the machine snap shut.
This is a certified calibration lab, where researchers and manufacturers submit their solar cells for evaluation.
Keith Emery: "We do approximately 100 of these a month."
The video pans over the inside of the facility. Different machines are showing. In one scene, a cell is exposed to a brilliant red light.
Various lamps and different colors of light imitate the sun's rays…
Keith Emery: "This is our solar simulator."
So scientists can study the samples' responses to the solar spectrum.
Keith Emery: "They're just trying to make them cheaper and better."
Image of the outside of the Process Development and Integration Lab (PDIL). The shot zooms in close on a cylindrical, tower-shaped section of the building, lined with small square windows on the side. The video then switches to inside the building, where researchers work in wide, open rooms full of large machines. It then switches to Steve Robbins, a man with a beard and glasses.
Steve Robbins: "I'm Steve Robbins, and you're here at the Process Development and Integration Lab."
The PDIL in the Science and Technology Facility is NREL's latest tool to advance the science of photovoltaics.
Steve Robbins: "Oh, I love it. This is a fantastic facility."
The technology here allows scientists to deposit the layers of a solar cell and do their research, without exposing the sample to air.
A close-in shot of Steve Robbins is accompanied with the text, "Steve Robbins: Senior Engineer."
Steve Robbins: "The ability for us to move these six-inch samples from machine to machine, completely under vacuum is actually unique in the world. You will not find anything else like this anywhere else."
A computer graphic image shows how the inside of their machine works. A robot arm lifts a solar cell beneath a light. The cell is then moved down the machine by the robot arm, as parts move and shift out of the way. The machine slowly stacks layers of the cell on top of each other.
A robot in the center of this steel chamber shuffles the samples through the various steps. The vacuum pod is vital to this process.
Steve Robbins: "Here, we're actually trying to protect from molecular contamination."
The pristine environment is critical because an entire photovoltaic stack can be just a micron or two.
Steve Robbins: "A human hair is roughly 80 microns."
Gases can react with the surface and even a speck of dust can contaminate a sample. Manufacturers are taking advantage of the PDIL to improve their solar cells.
Steve Robbins: "Many scientists, they see it and they're just awed. They're amazed. They're like, 'Oh, we need that.'"
The video zooms out of the PDIL. A montage of images shows all of the solar researchers at NREL that have been interviewed in this video. As the video comes to an end, the images change from person to person, from Larry Kazmerski's office to the inside of the PDIL to the Solar Energy Research Facility and the Outdoor Test Facility.
Larry Kazmerski: "How many times in my career have I heard, 'That won't work? That won't happen'?"
Overcoming obstacles, pushing new horizons. NREL's Center for Photovoltaics is rising to meet the next challenge to make the cost of solar energy competitive with other electricity sources by the year 2015.
Larry Kazmerski: "It's going to be more than competitive."
Image of the sun, panning across the sky, followed by a close-up of a solar cell.
Capturing the light from the sun. Converting it to low-cost electricity.
Jerry Olson: "We're working on four-junction solar cells with efficiencies that could go as high as 50%."
Image of a skyline lit by a golden-orange sunset. Shadowy silhouettes of buildings jut out against a distant horizon. The next shot shows the sun shining brightly right on the horizon, about to set.
The next generation of solar power is dawning at NREL.
Larry Kazmerski: "These are all technologies that are revolutionary technologies. These are things that are beyond what people can even think."
The video ends with the NREL logo.

EYEWITNESS LOCAL NEWSCrews Open Road Into Madison Creek
from Eyewitness News Online
Reported by: Heath Harrison
Web Producer: Heath Harrison
Reported: Dec. 19, 2013 5:15 PM EST
Updated: Dec. 19, 2013 11:31 PM EST
Madison Creek , Logan County , West Virginia
People living in the Madison Creek area of Logan County have been anxious to get home. And after hard work from road crews, many of them are once again home.
There's one saying that comes to mind for those who live on Madison Creek Road in Logan County: "There's no place like home."
People who live in the area were able to return home thursday after a landslide last week shut down the road and cut off the community.
That road reopened just before 6:30 thursday evening.
Rocks, trees and mud kept the Division of Highways busy for days to clear the mess.
"The size of this slide was beyond the size of anything any of us have dealt with," Chris Collins, with the DOH, said.
Madison Creek Road is one way in -- one way out.
The slide effectively cut off access.
Some decided to stay at home, knowing they'd have no way out. Others went to hotels or nearby family homes with the help of Logan and Man emergency services, who used ATV's and boats to evacuate the community.
"I can't say it's been awful," Rhonda Dibson of Madison Creek said. "Because I've been stay with my daughter but I just want to go home."
Crews worked around the clock to make sure everyone in the Madison Creek area could spend the holidays together.
"We wanted to be able to get the families back to their homes," Collins said. "We know many families have been displaced or have stayed in the area and that was a major factor we wanted to get the families at least home for Christmas and we're very pleased that we've done that."
So with the road back open and families back home for Christmas, neighbors say they're ready for life to get back to normal.
However, if you're headed out that way, be careful driving. The gravel road is still a bit muddy and road crews are still out there working.
The West Virginia Division of Highways opened a temporary road into the Madison Creek area of Logan County on Thursday.
More than 100 people were trapped when the slide first happened on Dec. 6.
Many people were stranded in their homes, or stayed at a motel after evacuating.

Arts Unit Guides - Section 4 – Assessment Requirements
- Participation
- Examinations
- Assignment submission
- Extensions and penalties
- Returning assignments
- Resubmission of assignments
- Referencing requirements
Outline any participation requirements, value (where relevant), and criteria by which performance will be judged.
If you wish to apply a penalty for non tutorial participation you can nominate one of the penalties included in the Arts faculty policy http://www.arts.monash.edu.au/policy-bank/policies/tutorial-attendance.php
Include details of each assessment component as follows:
Details of task:
Provide details of tasks including any set questions, resources used or found, how students are to proceed if there is more than one option available, formatting, referencing or particular submission requirements.
Release dates
State when the information will be available if not provided in the Unit Guide.
Word limit
Word counts for Arts units can be found at http://www.arts.monash.edu.au/policy-bank/policies/wordcount-percentages-of-assessment.php.
State the % value of the work in relation to the overall assessment.
Presentation requirements:
In this section you should inform students about the need to submit work with a signed coversheet (include the location if hand delivered). If you have specific requirements, i.e. a particular referencing system or the use of Turnitin, please provide details.
Estimated return date:
State when a student should receive feedback on the assessment task
Hurdle requirements:
Refer to the Assessment Summary
Individual Assessment in Group Tasks:
Note: with the exception of performance units, group assessment should normally not exceed 40% of the total formal assessment in the subject/unit.
- The weighting of assessment of group project work should correspond to the significance of group work in the unit objectives, and to the nature of the task to be assessed.
- The individual contribution to group work should be appropriately factored into the overall mark for the group project.
- The length of a written group project should be consistent with the nature of the task, the weighting it has been given in the subject/unit, the number of students in the group and the weighting given to each individual contribution.
- In calculating the weight of assessment tasks for the unit, the overall word length of a written group project should be divided by the number of students. For example, a 6000 word project written by 3 students should count as 2000 words for each student. If the group task involves significantly more input from each student than would an individual assignment of the same length, a case may be made to the relevant committee for allowing a greater percentage weighting to the group task than indicated by the word count alone.
- A student may be given an alternative, individual task where evidence is provided by a professional practitioner that the student cannot perform the group task or would disadvantage other members of the group.
Multilevel distinction
State how you will assess the different year levels in this unit. What are the qualitative and quantitative measurements? Provide details of the different requirements.
Criteria for Marking
Your criteria for marking should:
- be linked to learning outcomes
- be able to distinguish between different levels of student achievement
- correspond with information given to students
- include different criteria for different components
Please state what will be taken into account when marking the assessment piece
Example 1- Written work
- Relevance to the set topic
- Logical planning and sequence of argument or explanation
- Clarity of expressions consistent use of bibliographical expression accurate spelling and grammatical expressions
- Depth and breadth of reading and research
Example 2 - Seminar presentation
This mark will cover your discussion of readings and projects, participation in performance exercises and, brief 'homework' assignments to be done in groups or individually, rehearsal work during class time warm-up practices and attendance.
Note: some Schools may have a table that will spell out the criteria for written work under headings, e.g. Basic Criteria, Presentation and Content and then have additional requirements for each year level. Others may use a generic assessment and grading table that outlines the grades, the use of language, the coverage of ideas and information sources.
Provide details of any formal examination(s). Will it be held during the examination period? What is the length of the examination?
Assignment Submission
There are six options for the return of assignments. Select one of the options and enter any additional detail.
The new Arts policy on On-line Submission of Assignments can be found at http://www.arts.monash.edu.au/policy-bank/policies/on-line-submission-of-assignments.php
- While online submission is the standard for the Faculty of Arts, concurrent hardcopy submission is available to support marking and feedback. Hardcopy submission without concurrent online submission is also possible for those assessment items that cannot be submitted electronically due to technical reasons.
Note, if you intend to use Online Submission only, consider how you plan to provide feedback and if that means you need to specify a particular format (e.g., specify Word if you want to use track changes).
Online Submission in Moodle
As the Faculty will be transitioning to Moodle in second semester, the information in the online template regarding online assignment submission has been checked by the VLE implementation team. The VLE team has also provided the following clarification about the assignment submission in Moodle.
File formatting
Moodle accepts all file formats. However, you may prefer to specify a particular format due to the nature of the activity or for ease of handling (e.g., Word (.doc, .docx) if you plan to use track changes for marking and feedback purposes).
File naming
The VLE team advises that Moodle will automatically do the following:
- separate student files when all are downloaded as a zip file
- add the student name as a prefix to the assignment file's title, so adding their authcate probably isn't required for the assignment title
- add the date submitted as a suffix
Screenshots of what students see when they submit an assignment via Moodle
No assignment submitted
Send for marking
Final submission
Assignment submitted
Students can access the Arts coversheet via their My Monash portal (they navigate to the Study and administration tab > My Units > Select the unit > Teaching and Learning Tools > Barcoded coversheet). Note: this is different from the staff portal set-up.
- Information about how to access the coversheet has been included in the unit guide template. Students can both use it for electronic submission and print it for hardcopy submission.
- The benefit of using the My Monash portal version of the coversheet is that student details (id, name, unit code) are automatically generated.
If you want to include instructions on how to copy and paste the coversheet into a Word document, please see suggested wording below
- CTRL + A to highlight the html coversheet
- CTRL + C to copy or right click mouse and copy
- CTRL + V to paste into word document or right click mouse and paste
- Page layout – Page set up
- Set margins to 1cm (Top, bottom, left, right)
- Check paper is A4 portrait
- CTRL + A to highlight all of coversheet
- Change font size to 10.5pt
- Coversheet now fits onto one A4 page
Note: the barcode number does not copy over to Word document if using browser Mozilla Firefox, it only works in Internet Explorer. Further optional instructions are provided below.
Steps to copy barcode image into Word document (if using Mozilla Firefox)
- Go to html barcoded coversheet
- Put mouse over barcode, right click and copy image
- Go to coversheet in Word document, right click and paste image
- Barcode image of student's ID is now inserted
Extensions and penalties
Refer to the Arts policy which was recently amended: http://www.arts.monash.edu.au/policy-bank/assessment.php
Returning assignments
Note within semester, teaching staff are expected to hand back assignments in class or during consultation hours - for further details, see point 4 Protocol for the return of assignments/feedback of the Arts Assessment and Feedback Procedures.
There are four options for the return of assignments. Select one of the options and enter any additional detail.
Resubmission of assignments
State whether resubmission is allowed/not allowed for this unit. If it is allowed, include details on how students would request resubmission and under what circumstances.
Note: the Faculty of Arts does not have a resubmission policy; the policy governing review and remarking of assessment can be found at http://www.arts.monash.edu.au/policy-bank/policies/review-remarking-policy.php. In the case that this unit is the last unit required to complete the course, a final fail for the completed unit withing the range of 45 - 49 can qualify the student to apply for supplementary assessment. The policy, procedures and application form can be found under Supplementary Assessment at http://www.arts.monash.edu.au/policy-bank/assessment.php.
Referencing requirements
State the requirements for referencing and/or refer students to the appropriate Faculty or School/ Department guide.

...this is very good! The look, the feel of your brand is really hashed out.And I feel that although there are a bunch of people (even on here) headed in that direction,there's a feeling that YOU originated it...your own feel....real branding...very good to see instead of DiamaBapePremeSSuR whatev I've been seeing the past few weeks. Thanks for posting your stuff! -h_h-Oh I got hoodies son. You can always get better quality though.Get your shit in the hands of the right people and you're good. Too many people try this shit with iron ons and drop it after a few monthsFor someone who was asking for sources on blank hoods, you seem to have it all figured out. congratulations!

Hi all,Looks like you ripped off Hydro74 and posted on here.Could be wrong...but it's so dead on. Might want to look into that.-h_h-
Haven't gotten to printing shirts yet, but just looking for honest feedback to see if my designs seem fit and worth my money to get printed.

Flamingo Black Bright logo dont plan on using this but you never know opinions?? thank you
....not everyone has taste...I see you went with what everyone gave you for input and came out with some hot garbage.This is bad.The only thing I'm reminded of is,...when we kids and everyone made sugar cookies in class...you remember how all those sprinkles all the kids put on just made everything look nasty? That's about where this ended up.
A logo needs to have a bit of transferability and timelessness to it.This looks like it's made out of other companies' hot ish for the moment...frankenlogo with 20 colors....if you printed that, you're looking at TON to print each one.You would never make real money to keep your brand going. Buy some books on logo design and read up on it.You seem like you might have something if you go back some steps and don't take all the advice people give you.Listen to some, but not all...think back to the sugar cookies eh ;) ?
What the living hell.
What happen to the other one sketch you guys had with the Cat Tails, Please don't use this.
Take the water away and the name in uneven and the diamond is a no no.

Cut and paste Crooks.. might work for someone in the hood. But otherwise...who wants to wear hashed out stuff from 2 years ago? Might want to look inside for some original feeling...maybe even scratch it.Unless it sells.....then go crazy and keep bootlegging...if it's about money...it's about money...I guess. ;) -h_h-

I thought you were talking about my stuff and I was like , "how did he get that out of a smiley face doe????" hahaha..... I'm weak right now!is it just me or does the logo look like a penis. You might want to fix that. Just saying.Hey everyone..
So I got my first design printed, I decided to go with the zombie design, I got my website up and running, emails etc.. I have had quite positive feedback with the first design - although I have decided to start off with more basic designs. Putting such a detailed design on a garment with very little fanbase I am limiting myself to the amount of consumers I will capture.
any feedback is highly appreciated - whether it be bad or good!
also, I know my product photography is quite terrible.. this is something I am working on - I am purchasing a new camera.. does anyone have any recommendations?
Check it out at www.lowlivesclothing.com
^as soon as you can, print up your logo at the top of your website in half black tees,half white tees...then thank me.That is going to look good and sell well if you get it out right away.Trust me. ...better yet,buy something off of me and spread the word in return if I'm right. -h_h-

i just get a blue box with a question mark :/Hi Everyone we (KiteLifeCo.) are new to the forum and would like to start out by introducing ourselves and giving a little insight. We are a clothing company gear towards the high flyers with frequent flyer miles that love fitting in by standing out. We take pride in all our work and believe that quality and limited availability take precedence over quantity every-time. Every brand states that their brand is a depiction of a certain type of lifestyle, well the same is true for KiteLifeCo, though only true kiters know, grasp and enjoy what the KiteLifeCo. lifestyle is.Upload them to tinypic, copy the URL. What happened when you click the image button..?
Others are left scratching their heads and asking "what does KiteLife mean?"
Which for anyone trying to make an impact with their brand would enjoy the opportunity to inform other (properly).
Quick question: what is the most ideal way to get photos of designs onto the forum?
(please don't respond saying press the image button, we are not technologically handicapped we've already tried that. lol.)

Thanks for the feedback, I've discussed this issue with another member as well, as I thought maybe this was too much like hydro's work (something I won't deny) I'm working on changing the style of my pieces to develop a new aesthetic instead of looking like rip offs. I'm working on some new designs, would love to hear your feedback to see if they still look rip-offs.Hi all,Looks like you ripped off Hydro74 and posted on here.Could be wrong...but it's so dead on. Might want to look into that.-h_h-
Haven't gotten to printing shirts yet, but just looking for honest feedback to see if my designs seem fit and worth my money to get printed.

---- — FULTON, Ill.— Businesses will be decked out with holiday decorations and the children's train will run along Fourth Street in Fulton as "Christmas Comes To Town" on the weekend of Dec. 6.
The community will once again hold its annual Christmas walk. Tourism Director Heather Bennett estimated the event has been a part of the city's holiday season for more than 25 or 30 years.
"The chamber has been heavily involved in organizing it for the last 13 years," Bennett said. "It's a really nice community event that is free."
The event will run from 5 to 7:30 p.m. Dec. 6, with a variety of activities. Whether shopping in the downtown area, or participating in some of the special activities, Bennett said the walk has a little bit of everything.
The Riverside Brass Quartet will play during the event and a live nativity scene will be displayed at 12th Avenue and Fourth Street. People can view gymnastic presentations at the Great River Gymnastic Studio. The Robert Fulton Community Center also will host a craft show during the walk and from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Dec. 7.
Children will have a chance to talk to Santa and Mrs. Claus at Krumpets and the Grinch and "Gingy" from Shrek on the street. The children's train will return to the event, with train rides starting at the community center. Children can also watch an ice sculptor at 11th Avenue and Fourth Street and a puppet show at the State Farm Agency.
"And everything's in a two-block radius, so there's not a lot of walking," Bennett said.
For the ninth year, the 2-maile run/walk will start at 6:30. Registration starts at 5:30 p.m. at Manny's Too.
The cost for the run/walk is $14 before Monday and $20 after. Participants can register in advance by visiting the city's website or the the Fulton Chamber of Commerce.
Last year, the Christmas walk included a small festival of trees, with area businesses decorating trees sold during a silent auction. This year, people will have a chance to purchase decorated wreaths instead.
"It's always good to change things," Bennett said.
A silent auction for the wreaths will be held at the Fulton Masonic Lodge, with proceeds going toward the purchase of new downtown christmas lights. Bennett said the current lights are more than 30 years old and replacement parts are no longer available.
In connection with the Christmas walk, Second Reformed Church, 703 14th Ave., Fulton, will host a live simulcast from the Women of Faith, beginning at 7 p.m. Organizer Joy Van Zuiden said this Christmas production will feature a program of Christian musicians and speakers for the whole family. She felt this would be a nice way for people to start their Christmas season.
"It's mostly to prepare people's hearts for the Christmas season," Van Zuiden said.
She added the free event is inspirational and entertaining, featuring serious speakers, music and a lot of laughter.
"It's just a real opportunity to take advantage of," Van Zuiden said.
Holiday activities also will be available Dec. 7. Bennett said Christmas at Heritage Canyon and the illuminated walk are always favorites. The day also will feature a breakfast with Santa from 7:30 to 10:30 a.m. at the fire station and a children's story at 11 a.m. at Schmaling Memorial Library.
For more information on the event, visit the city's website at www.cityoffulton.us/ or call the Fulton Chamber of Commerce at (815) 589-4545.

North Jefferson News
— It's Thursday, and it's a bit moist…
Weather: Rain returns. Wet weather entered to the state in the overnight hours, but it will clear out late tonight. Highs today will be near 60, with lows tonight in the upper 40s. There may be some scattered showers on Friday.
Beason enters gun-control fray. State Sen. Scott Beason, R-Gardendale, has filed a bill in the upcoming legislative session that he says would "clarify" current law concerning open-carry of firearms. Beason said in television interviews that some counties and cities had tried to change the meaning of the current state law, circumventing the original intent of legislators. The bill is one of several filed, largely in response to calls for tighter gun controls by the Obama Administration in the wake of the school shootings in Newtown, Connecticut.
Confirmation vote postponed. President Obama's nominee for secretary of defense is running into opposition in the Senate. The hearing for former Sen. Chuck Hagel, R-Neb., by the Armed Services Committee has been delayed while several financial issues are investigated. Hagel is balking at turning over information to the committee about certain corporations he has links to.
Sports: Do the hat dance. It's a National Signing Day tradition — some prized recruit holds off on his choice of where to play his college football until the last minute, then pulls out a baseball cap from his chosen school before TV cameras. This time it was Pinson Valley linebacker Zach Cunningham's turn, and the hat he pulled out belonged to Vanderbilt. Cunningham chose the Commodores over Tennessee, Auburn and Oregon on Wednesday afternoon. Other local recruits had their minds made up already, including Fultondale quarterback/safety ArDarius Stewart. He signed his papers for Alabama before the entire FHS student body and a live-streamed video audience on the Internet. Other signees: Earnest Robinson of Pinson, to Auburn; Jordan Howard of Gardendale, to UAB; Jesse Blackburn, also of Gardendale, to Murray State (Ky.); Corey Ward and Steven Ballard of Hayden, both to NAIA program Faulkner University of Montgomery; Jeffrey Blair of Pinson, also to Faulkner; and Ryan Tallmage of Gardendale and Trent Dodson of Hayden, who will both go to Division III Birmingham-Southern on academic scholarships and will play for the Panthers… Prep basketball: Area tournaments get underway in earnest tonight, with Gardendale hosting their Class 6A tourney. They take on Huffman at 6:30 p.m. Hayden hosts their 5A affair; they play Curry at 7:30, right after Mortimer Jordan plays Walker. Elsewhere, Pinson Valley plays Springville at 5:30 at Center Point, Corner plays Dora at 7 at Carbon Hill, Locust Fork takes on Fairview at 7:30 at Oneonta, and Fultondale plays Holy Family Cristo Rey at 7:30 at Altamont School.

Daily Item
---- — By Harold Raker
The Daily Item
PECKVILLE -- There was a lot of talk in recent weeks about whether Southern Columbia, despite its unbeaten mark, would be able to get past Old Forge in the first round of the PIAA Class A playoffs.
That is mere conjecture now, because Dunmore beat the Tigers to the punch, eliminating the Blue Devils 7-6 in last week's District 2 Class A title game.
Few saw that coming, knowing that, in week four, Old Forge rolled the Bucks 21-0.
Dunmore coach Jack Henzes Jr., will now lead his 11-1 Bucks to take on the 12-0 Tigers at 7 p.m. Friday, ironically, in Valley View High School's Jack Henzes Memorial Stadium in Peckville. The stadium was dedicated to the current Dunmore coach's late father, who had a great career at Valley View.
Both Roth and Henzes Jr., who have combined for 68 seasons and 710 wins, agree that the Dunmore team that won last week's rematch with the Blue Devils is much improved. In the first match-up, both junior fullback Daiqwon Buckley and senior tailback Austin Seamon missed the game with injuries.
The pair returned for the playoffs and these Bucks (11-1) playoff-worthy.
"I think most of the people here expected (our opponent) to be Old Forge because of the year they had and (because) they handled Dunmore in the first game," Roth said. "But we knew there were some issues, especially with injuries, with Dunmore in that first game. They certainly came out last week and turned the tide and played a much different game than the first time around."
Henzes said, "We have had a tremendous amount of injuries that we didn't have in the past. We dressed 26 or 27 in some games. I have to give our younger kids credit for staying in there and now we finally started to get healthy and the kids started doing the things we needed to do."
He said that, in the first game with Old Forge, the Blue Devils ran 35 plays to the Bucks' 12 as they fell behind 6-0 at the half. "We couldn't throw the ball and in the fourth quarter we got down 14-0 and then 21-0, without our (top two) running backs there. The holes were there, but the young kids were not mature enough to hit the holes like the boys we have now."
Roth said that Dunmore's big, physical line and the return of their two quality backs makes the Bucks a challenging opponent as they try to advance to play the winner of Saturday's Williams Valley-Bristol contest.
"The physical nature of the way they run the ball...they come right at you and (Buckley) is about 215 (pounds) and runs hard with some strength," Roth said.
Despite the lost time, Buckley has rushed for 1,240 yards and 17 touchdowns (averaging 9.47 yards a carry). Seamon has 884 yards and 10 TDs (6.36 average).
Roth said what the Bucks do -- run a power I and come right at you -- is not something the Tigers see often. But that it just happened last week versus South Williamsport, is a plus.
"It's a positive that we are facing another team that has the same kind of emphasis on offense, and the same kind of philosophy as far as a power running game," Roth said.
On the other hand, Henzes finds himself coaching against a Delaware Wing-T offense, something the Bucks rarely see in their region.
However, they did face that offense two weeks ago in the district semifinals versus Lackawanna Trail.
"We have not played a lot of total wing-T teams and that is a great concern. They are very well-coached, Jim and his staff do an outstanding job and their record speaks for itself.
"They have exceptional running backs and some of their kids played in the state final game last year, so they are experienced. They don't hurt themselves, they block well and run that wing-T the way it should be run," Henzes said.
He also said the Tigers will be a challenge on defense because they are physical and aggressive, and get a lot of people to the ball.
"The big thing in this game: we have to make big plays. In games like this, that is something that can turn the game around. We think we are very well prepared and we have been watching tape on them. You have to be well-prepared because as soon as you let your guard down one time, they come at you and it starts to steamroll as their kids get some confidence," Henzes added.
Roth said that in addition to the running backs, his biggest concerns are being able to control the play in the line, and handling Dunmore's multiple-look defenses.
"With the type of running game they have, if you don't hold your ground and control your gaps properly, the physical nature of the way they do things, they are going to get yards after first contact," Roth said. "So it is real important we do a real good job up front."
He said being able to handle the Bucks' defense is also a challenge. "They run primarily a four-man front, but they do a lot of moving around with their personnel, sliding their front a lot, and they give you a three- and sometimes a four-linebacker look, and they roll a cornerback onto the line."
When those things happen, Roth said, his defense needs to be concerned more with their areas of responsibility and not get confused trying to play their man. "We cannot get flustered with them moving around. They do some blitzes and some things that are risky, and if you get your guys comfortable with that, and pick up on our blocks, we can get some big plays off of that," he said.

Dr. Bruyette welcome endocrinology questions from veterinarians and veterinary technicians.
Click here to submit your question, or send an e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com with the subject line "Endocrinoloy questions."
A. I think the answer to this question depends on the owners' goals. I will assume if we are talking about medical options that
surgical options have been ruled out.
If the goal is to use a medication to control clinical signs and serve as a form of chemotherapy, then mitotane might appear
to be a better choice given its adrenolytic action. However, a recent paper suggests that there is no difference in survival
times comparing mitotane and trilostane.1
Generally, doses used to ablate an adrenal tumor with mitotane are markedly higher than those used to control hypercortisolemia.
For instance, the most common protocol for adrenal ablation uses a dose of 50 mg/kg given orally b.i.d. daily for 30 days,
and glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid replacement therapy is initiated during week 1. In contrast, the protocol for dogs
with pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism involves a dose of 50 mg/kg/day for one week followed by 50 mg/kg/week as maintenance
therapy. Typically, as we raise the dose of mitotane, we increase the likelihood of side effects, and this was seen in dogs
given adrenal ablative doses.2

|spitting image
|informal spit, Also called: spit and image a person who bears a strong physical resemblance to another, esp to a relative
|[C19: modification of spit and image, from
spitting image
A precise resemblance, especially in closely related persons. For example, Dirk is the spitting image of his grandfather. This idiom alludes to the earlier use of the noun spit for "likeness," in turn probably derived from an old proverb, "as like as one as if he had been spit out of his mouth" (c. 1400). The current idiom dates from about 1900.

SEATTLE - Washington State University students heading back to school may have helped spread the swine flu by doing exactly what they normally do - socializing and pulling all-nighters.
"They knew they were taking risks by staying out too late, by drinking from other people's cups, and this sort of thing," said Erica Austin, of WSU's College of Communication. "They mentioned repeatedly that they were not getting enough sleep, burning the candle at both ends."
Today, WSU officials will be in Seattle to teach others what they've learned from focus groups and talks with students who were temporarily sidelined by "The Pullman Plague."
In late September, researchers from the WSU College of Communication and the Washington Health Foundation interviewed 20 students and two WSU administrators. Six of the students displayed symptoms unconfirmed but consistent with swine flu.
The idea was to get a snapshot into what students dealt with during the outbreak early in the school year that reportedly stuck more than 2,000 students with swine flu-like symptoms. "With one of the first major H1N1 outbreaks occurring right here in Washington state, we wanted to work with Washington State University to determine the symptoms and remedies experienced by students in Pullman," said Greg Vigdor, President of Washington Health Foundation.
The findings: Though students said they were grateful for the information and the flu kits on campus, many were still too worried about missing classes to stay home. Others did not realize they were an age group particularly at risk for severe swine flu symptoms, and instead "suffered through it" on their own, said Austin.?Many in the focus group reported symptoms that included headache, sore throat, chills, fever and body aches.
"They would get some symptoms, these would start to fade, they would think they're getting better, then they would seem some other symptoms, this made self-diagnosis and treatment and self-isolation somewhat challenging," said Austin.
Researchers also say the outbreak may have been blown out of proportion in new reports because the way county health officials reported the numbers made the swine flu seem more widespread than it really was. The figure in the thousands represented a total number over time, and included students with symptoms who were not confirmed to be H1N1 swine flu patients.
The lesson to take from the WSU outbreak, researchers said, is how to target consistent information about prevention and vaccines. While many students surfed Web sites to find out how to deal with their sickness, "mom and dad" tended to still be the number one source students mentioned calling for help. Also, having a network of people to help you out, even if you're self-isolating due to the contagious nature of the swine flu, can make getting over the disease easier.
Meanwhile, swine flu vaccines are now becoming available in some parts of the country. The first batches to be released are the nasal spray for healthy people ages two to 49.
The shots will be available in a few days. In Western Washington, most of those doses will be offered first to health care workers and first responders. After that, CDC officials are urging families across the country to get them for children and adults alike once the doses are more widely available.

Staff Reports
Lockport Union-Sun & Journal
A Cambria teen was charged Sunday with a misdemeanor count of falsely reporting an incident after he allegedly posted on his Facebook page a message indicating the Cana Fest in the Tonawandas wold be bombed.
The Niagara County Sheriff's Office received a complaint who was concerned about a post that a 16-year-old had made. The posting allegedly said "Spoiler alert: canal fest gets bombed."
A deputy contacted the teen, who said he posted the note as a joke, adding he thought it would be a "funny prank" because several of his friends were going to attend Canal Fest in North Tonawanda.
The teen's mother was advised of the situation.
New York state penal law states that a person is guilty of falsely reporting an incident in the third degree when, knowing the information is false, "initiates or circulates a false report or warning of an alleged occurrence of a crime, catastrophe or emergency under circumstances in which it is not unlikely that public alarm or inconvenience will result."
