Each year, Lawrence Technological University students gain valuable, career-enhancing experience in competitions that challenge them to tackle real-world design and engineering challenges. Sponsored by the SAE International), these competitions are an integral part of Lawrence Tech's engineering curriculum, which has always stressed the importance of enriching "theory" with "practice." Nearly 30 years ago, this belief prompted Lawrence Tech to become one of the first universities in the United States to participate in the SAE® Collegiate Design competitions.
In these year-long projects open to all undergraduates, students work in teams similar to those they will encounter in industry. They research, design, build, and test their vehicles and aircraft, as well as raise funds and create marketing presentations. At the end of the academic year, they test their knowledge and skill against other student teams in regional and international competitions.

Students design, build, test, and fly a radio-controlled heavy-lift cargo airplane. Given a set of constraints, their goal is to airlift the most weight possible. The students are judged in the categories of oral presentation, design and innovation, payload prediction, and flight competition. In 2009 and 2010, the Lawrence Tech team finished among the top 10 in the SAE® Aero Design East Competition.
Competing against more than 100 other teams to have their design accepted for manufacture by a fictitious firm, students design and build an off-road vehicle that will survive the severe punishment of rough terrain. In 2009 Lawrence Tech's team finished 27th overall in the Midwest out of 100 teams, winning 3rd place in land maneuverability, 16th in acceleration, and 19th in suspension and traction. In 2010 the team won 3rd place in the tractor pull.
Students design, fabricate, and race a small, formula-style, autocross racing car under the assumption that a manufacturing firm has engaged them to produce a prototype for evaluation as a production vehicle. The car is judged in high-performance endurance track trials in acceleration, skidpad, autocross, fuel economy, and endurance. In 2010 Lawrence Tech's car finished 16th place overall, 11th in endurance, and 7th in design.
Lawrence Tech began participating in this competition, endorsed by the SAE and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, in the 2009–10 academic year. Students design, build, and race an open-wheel, single-seat, plug-in hybrid racecar focusing on the engineering of the hybrid drive system and vehicle suspension to maximize performance in acceleration, autocross, and endurance. In 2010 the team placed 3rd in class and won General Motors' 3rd place design award.

Stony Brook's men's basketball team last season saw its season end with a loss to Vermont in the conference championship. As the 2012-2013 season nears, Vermont is the team to beat once again – but Stony Brook won't be far behind, after the America East conference announced the results of its coaches' poll on Tuesday.
Vermont was picked to win the conference, and Stony Brook received four first-place votes but was chosen as No. 2 in the men's poll.
Head coach Steve Pikiell told Newsday on Tuesday he feels that "preseason polls don't mean a lot, but it's exciting to be picked in the top few because I've been at the other end of the spectrum. Until someone knocks Vermont off, they're the champs."
Forward Tommy Brenton, last year's defensive player of the year who is now a senior, was picked for the preseason All-America East roster. Brenton and junior guard Dave Coley are two of the team's top returning players.
Stony Brook's women's team was picked to finish last in the conference. Head coach Beth O'Boyle, whose team went 1-15 in conference play during her first season as head coach, told Newsday: "We're very young, but we're more athletic, which is a big help."

Nov. 17, 2011
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Saturday will be a special night for the Florida State football players. For many, it marks the end of a collegiate career playing home games inside Doak Campbell Stadium and for others it means playing one last time on Bobby Bowden Field with close friends and teammates.
At 7:15 p.m. on Saturday night, the senior members of the FSU football team will be honored in a pre-game ceremony before taking on Virginia. It will be the last time that a 'Noles home-crowd can cheer on many of their favorite student-athletes.
Let's take a look at the 2008 signing class and examine the impact that each of the members of that recruiting cycle had while at FSU. This list does not include current senior starters Bert Reed and Shawn Powell, who were both part of the 2007 signing class, and Mike Harris, who was a junior-college signee in 2010.
Recruiting rankings from Rivals.com and Scout.com (247Sports.com was not around yet in 2008) are used in this story.
A.J. Alexander - Athlete - Rivals.com four-star, Scout.com four-star
Alexander started his FSU career as a defensive back in 2008 and played in two games before receiving a medical redshirt. As a redshirt freshman in 2009, the Altoona, Pa. native played in three games and registered an interception. Alexander would make the switch to the offensive side of the ball in time for the 2010 campaign and caught two passes for 18 yards and ran the ball three times for 12 yards in three games.
FSU officials announced during halftime of the Seminoles' game against Clemson last season that Alexander had elected to leave the team and move home. He currently plays wide receiver for St. Francis (Pa) University and has caught 25 passes for 490 yards and seven touchdowns for the Red Flash.
Travis Arnold - Defensive Back - Rivals.com four-star, Scout.com three-star
Arnold never enrolled at Florida State and wound up at Butler Community College in Kansas.
Nigel Bradham - Linebacker - Rivals.com five-star, Scout.com five-star
Bradham was the only member of the 2008 recruiting class that was ranked a five-star prospect by both Rivals.com and Scout.com and No. 13 will play on Bobby Bowden Field one last time Saturday night knowing that he lived up to those lofty rankings.
With 62 stops on the season, Bradham currently leads the Seminoles in tackles and has the opportunity to leave a lasting legacy in Tallahassee. The Wakulla, Fla. native could become the first player to lead FSU in tackles in three consecutive seasons since the mighty Marvin Jones accomplished that feat from 1990 to 1992.
Ironically, Bradham's most memorable play at Florida State may have occurred just last weekend in the win over Miami. Late in the ballgame, Bradham's bone-jarring hit on 'Canes' receiver LaRon Byrd drew a personal-foul penalty and ejection. Two days later, the Atlantic Coast Conference office released a statement clarifying that Bradham's tackle was actually legal and that he should not have been removed from the game.
Not only does Bradham have the chance to leave memories of his ability to make tackles like Jones but he now will forever live in FSU versus Miami "big-hits" lore just like Jones, too. And, of course, Stanford Samuels hit on Roscoe Parrish as well.
Nigel Carr - Linebacker - Rivals.com four-star, Scout.com four-star
After a sophomore season that saw him register 26 tackles, Carr was supposed to take over for the graduated Dekoda Watson at the starting weakside linebacker spot in 2010. Unfortunately, that opportunity never came to fruition for the talented Jacksonville, Fla. native.
Carr was released from his scholarship on Aug. 18, 2010 by FSU head coach Jimbo Fisher because of off-field legal troubles. He wound up transferring to Alabama State and played in 12 games last season, racking up 55 tackles and three sacks.
This year, Carr -- a senior -- was deemed academically ineligible for the first seven games of the Hornets' season but has since played in three games and recorded 13 tackles. On Nov. 16, he was selected to play in the 3rd Annual HBCU All-Star Bowl Game.
Avis Commack - Wide receiver - Rivals.com three-star, Scout.com four-star
Commack was one of three prospects to sign with the Seminoles in 2008 from Jacksonville's First Coast High School along with Jermaine Thomas and Nigel Carr.
Commack came to FSU as a wide receiver and appeared in five games but did not record a catch. He then played in one game in 2009 and had to sit out all of the 2010 campaign after breaking his leg while practicing the hurdles for the FSU men's indoor track & field team.
Commack switched to the defensive secondary during his redshirt season last year and also switched from jersey No. 14 to No. 21 before the start of this season. He has played in 10 games for the 'Noles this year as a backup cornerback and has six tackles.
Andrew Datko - Offensive lineman - Rivals.com three-star, Scout.com three-star
There were several underrated players in this signing class but Datko is definitely the star of the "diamond in the rough" category. As a three-star prospect according to both Rivals.com and Scout.com, Datko was not considered a top-30 prospect on the offensive line by either service.
Despite that, FSU coaches saw something special in Datko and they weren't wrong; he has been a stalwart at the left tackle spot since he stepped foot on campus and the only thing that has slowed him down has been a shoulder injury.
After practice this week, Fisher announced that Datko had undergone successful surgery on his shoulder and will definitely not play the rest of the season. Datko has been out of the lineup since the Clemson game.
A freshman All-American in 2008, Datko has widely been considered one of the top offensive tackles in the nation during his upperclassman years at FSU.
Everett Dawkins - Defensive linemen - RIvals.com four-star, Scout.com three-star
Dawkins has been one of the most consistent members of the 2008 class. The Spartanburg, S.C. native medically redshirted after three games in his true freshman season and has gone on to start 40 games at defensive tackle for the Seminoles since then.
Dawkins is currently 17th on the team in total tackles this season with 18 and he has an interception his credit. He still has one year of eligibility remaining.
Garrett Faircloth - Offensive lineman - Rivals.com two-star, Scout.com two-star
Faircloth was a member of the 2008 class but he is still a redshirt sophomore this year after delaying his enrollment and officially joining the FSU football program in the spring of 2009.
A former high school defensive tackle before moving to Tallahassee, Faircloth has seen his role with the Seminoles drastically increase over the past month. The Jacksonville, Fla. native has been the starter at right guard during the 'Noles five-game winning streak after replacing the injured David Spurlock and is expected to be in the starting lineup against Virginia this weekend.
Jarmon Fortson - Athlete - Rivals.com four-star, Scout.com four-star
Fortson was expected to be a breakout and potential national star in 2010 but he never got that chance. After grabbing 45 catches for 610 yards and four touchdowns as a sophomore in 2009, Fisher dismissed Fortson on Aug. 9, 2010 for a "violation of team rules."
Fortson wound up transferring to North Alabama and playing two seasons under Lions head coach Terry Bowden.
Josh Gehres - Wide receiver - Rivals.com two-star, Scout.com two-star
Like Faircloth, Gehres is just a redshirt sophomore despite being a member of the 2008 class. After delaying his enrollment until the spring of 2009, Gehres has caught three catches for 26 yards during his career. He has played in the wins over NC State and Boston College this season after missing most of the year while rehabilitating a knee injury he sustained during spring practice.
Antony Hill - Defensive tackle - Rivals.com three-star, Scout.com three-star
Hill never enrolled at FSU coming out of Pensacola, Fla. and did not play anywhere in what would have been his true freshman season in 2008. He wound up signing with USF in December of 2006 and is now a junior for the Bulls as a reserve defensive tackle. He has 14 total tackles in 16 games during his collegiate career.
Ed Imeokparia - Athlete - Rivals.com three-star, Scout.com two-star
Imeokparia redshirted in 2008 and then played in one game in 2009. He ran into some legal trouble in the offseason last year and did not play for FSU in 2010.
Imeokparia is no longer on the team.
Ty Jones - Running back - Rivals.com two-star, Scout.com two-star
Another underrated member of the 2008 class, Jones is now a reserve tailback in his senior season. The Tampa, Fla. native may not get many touches but he has exceeded his two-star ranking coming out of high school, rushing for a career total of 948 yards with three games to go in his final year.
Jones has scored 12 rushing touchdowns during his career, including one this season.
Ja'Baris Little - Tight end - Rivals.com four-star, Scout.com three-star
Like Gehres, Little came to FSU from nearby Lincoln High School. Little has played in 40 games and started nine during his collegiate career. He has caught two passes for nine yards as a blocking tight end.
EJ Manuel - Quarterback - Rivals.com four-star, Scout.com five-star
If Bradham was the crown jewel of the defense, than Manuel was the shining star of the offense in the 2008 class. Manuel is just a redshirt junior and is in his first year as the full-time starter at quarterback for FSU so his career impact will be discussed at a later date.
One quick note, though: Manuel currently has the best completion percentage of any quarterback in FSU history with a mark of 67.3 percent. Charlie Ward holds the all-time record in the category at 62.3 percent so Manuel has the chance to rewrite an impressive Seminoles record.
Anthony McCloud - Defensive tackle - Rivals.com four-star, Scout.com two-star
McCloud signed with FSU in 2008 but did not enroll in school until January of 2010 after attending Itawamba (Miss.) Community College. Since joining the football program, McCloud has become an integral part of the Seminoles' stout run defense.
McCloud played in all 14 games and started seven last year and registered 35 tackles and three sacks from his defensive tackle spot. This year, the redshirt junior has 24 tackles, five tackles for loss and two sacks in eight starts.
Moses McCray - Defensive tackle - Rivals.com four-star, Scout.com four-star
McCray has unfortunately suffered the wrath of the dreaded injury bug ever since he got to FSU in 2008. His late-game injury against Miami last weekend may keep him sidelined against Virginia and comes after he missed all of the 2010 season with elbow and shoulder injuries.
He was one of only two freshman to start on defense in 2008.
A redshirt junior, McCray has played in four games this season for the Seminoles and has four tackles
Nick Moody - Linebacker/Safety - Rivals.com four-star, Scout.com three-star
No matter what Moody does in his career, he will always be remembered for one thing: his hit on Florida's Jeff Demps in last season's 31-7 gutting of the Gators. It was that hit and a long line of other tackles that has given Moody the reputation of being the biggest hitter at FSU -- a title that Bradham could also strongly be considered as a candidate.
Moody redshirted his first season and has notched 132 tackles in his three-year playing career.
Terrance Parks - Defensive back - Rivals.com three-star, Scout.com four-star
Parks came to FSU as a cornerback and played there and on special teams as a true freshman in 2008.
The 2010 campaign then saw Parks entrench himself at safety where he started 14 games as a junior and has started eight in his final year in the garnet and gold. To his credit, Parks has 82 tackles for his career -- including a team 10th-best 30 stops this year entering his final home game.
Tavares Pressley - Running back - Rivals.com four-star, Scout.com four-star
Pressley is one of the prospects that makes one ask, "what if?" What if he had not battled with knee injuries? What if his career had not been cut short?
When he was healthy, Pressley was starring in the junior-college ranks at El Camino Community College and Monterey Peninsula College where in two seasons he combined to rush for 2,043 yards and double-digit touchdowns.
But at FSU that wasn't the case. He sustained a season-ending knee injury in the 2008 preseason and then appeared in a reserve role on a deep running-backs depth chart in 2009 when he ran the ball nine times for 40 yards. He then sustained another knee injury before his final year of eligibility in 2010 and was not able to play as a senior.
Beau Reliford - Tight end - Rivals.com two-star, Scout.com two-star
Despite not playing football until he was a junior in high school, FSU coaches saw something in Reliford that they liked in 2008. Since joining the program, Reliford has started 21 games at tight end and has 35 receptions and three touchdowns.
Zebrie Sanders - Offensive lineman - Rivals.com four-star, Scout.com four-star
Sanders was the highest ranked offensive lineman in the 2008 class and has lived up to that billing. He started the very first game of his collegiate career at the most important position on the line at left tackle and then switched to right tackle and started there for 10 games as a rookie.
In total, Sanders has started 47 games in his career along the line and most recently returned to left tackle to replace the injured Datko. It's at left tackle that Sanders appears to be most comfortable. According to the National Football Post, he is the No. 18-ranked senior prospect for the 2012 NFL Draft.
Rhonne Sanderson - Offensive lineman - Rivals.com two-star, Scout.com two-star
Sanderson's career was cut short when he was deemed medically disqualified before the start of the 2011 season. Prior to that, he played in 23 games with one start on the offensive line from 2009 t0 2010.
Sanderson is still involved with the program as a volunteer student assistant.
Debrale Smiley - Running back/Fullback - Rivals.com two-star, Scout.com three-star
Smiley starred at Thomas County High School in Thomasville, Ga. with McCloud, and like his teammate attended Itawamba (Miss.) Community College before joining the FSU football team in January of 2010.
As a reserve fullback, Smiley has carried the football 11 times for 42 yards and a touchdown that he registered this season as a redshirt junior.
Blake Snider - Offensive lineman - Rivals.com two-star, Scout.com two-star
Snider is in the same boat as his classmate Sanderson. He is now a volunteer student assistant with the football after being medically disqualified earlier this year. He redshirted last season and played in four games as a true freshman after delaying his enrollment until January of 2009.
David Spurlock - Offensive lineman - Rivals.com three-star, Scout.com three-star
Another longtime offensive-line starter from the 2008 class, Spurlock moved into the starting lineup in the sixth game of the 2008 season and never looked back. He started all 13 games as a sophomore and then started another seven as a junior in 2010 before being sidelined with an injury.
Spurlock was the starter at right guard this season but an injury has kept him out of the lineup since the Wake Forest game.
Toshmon Stevens - Defensive lineman - Rivals.com three-star, Scout.com three-star
Stevens doesn't get much playing time at defensive end because of the incredible talent at the position but he is one of the most important members of FSU's stellar special teams unit. A redshirt junior, the Pomona Park, Fla. native played in all 13 games in 2009 and then another nine last year.
This season, Stevens has 11 tackles in 10 games.
Corey Surrency - Wide receiver - Rivals.com four-star, Scout.com five-star
Surrency is one of the most interesting FSU stories in recent years because of what he did before enrolling in school in Tallahassee and what ultimately ended his collegiate career.
Before playing two seasons at El Camino Community College, Surrency played for the Florida Kings, a "minor league" football team in South Florida. After enrolling at FSU in 2008 and catching four touchdown passes in 11 games, Surrency was not permitted by the NCAA to compete in what would have been his senior season in 2009.
The rule, No. 126.96.36.199 in the NCAA Division I Manuel titled "Participation After 21st Birthday," mandated that, "If an individual participates in an organized sport after his 21st birthday, but before enrolling in college, that participation "shall count as one year of varsity competition in that sport."
Jermaine Thomas - Running back - Rivals.com three-star, Scout.com three-star
Thomas burst on to the scene as a true freshman in 2008 and has been an important part of what FSU does offensively ever since. The Jacksonville, Fla. native rushed for the sixth-most yards by a Seminoles freshman with 482 yards and then started 10 games as a star sophomore and posted 832 yards on the ground.
Last year, Thomas gained 490 yards rushing and has 204 this year for a grand total of 2,008 in his career. Entering his final game in Tallahassee, Thomas also has 21 total touchdowns.
Joe Tonga - Offensive lineman - Rivals.com unranked, Scout.com unranked
Tongo came to FSU from Mt. San Antonio Community College in 2008 with one year of eligibility. He played in 11 games, primarily on the line during field-goal and extra-point tries.
Markus White - Defensive end - Rivals.com five-star, Scout.com four-star
White was one of the top junior-college football players in the entire nation and made an immediate impact at FSU after he enrolled in 2008. He wound up starting at defensive end for two years before being selected in the seventh round of the 2011 NFL Draft by the Washington Redskins.
He played his first game as a professional last weekend.
Vince Williams - Linebacker - Rivals.com four-star, Scout.com four-star
Williams has stepped into the role of team leader and starter at middle linebacker as a redshirt junior this season. After playing in 12 games as a freshman in 2008, a back injury ended his 2009 season before it even started and he was granted a medical redshirt.
Last year, Williams posted 17 tackles as the backup to starter Kendall Smith at middle linebacker. He has started nine games at that position this year and is fourth on the team with 41 tackles.

Local Man Scammed Out of Over $26K
The Stafford Sheriff's Office says a county man was scammed out of over 26-thousand dollars by a man who convinced him he had won a 2.5 million dollars sweepstakes. Authorities say the victim--in his 60's--received a call saying he would receive an initial payment of 38-thousand dollars. But first he would have to pay 7-thousand dollars in taxes. Police say the victim believed several stories and had money sent to Florida at least five different times before finally contacting the sheriff's office.

By GARY POPP
The Clark County Sheriff's deputy shot during a police standoff at a Sellersburg home Monday is out of surgery and on his way to recovery.
Detective Chris Proctor, who has worked with the agency for more than 10 years, was struck in the leg by a bullet fired by Joshua Priddy, 31, of Sellersburg, during the incident.
Clark County Sheriff Danny Rodden said Tuesday afternoon that Proctor, who is also a SWAT team member, was performing SWAT duties outside of the home when Priddy began to randomly fire rounds through a window of the home along Delaware Court, just west of Interstate 65 in Sellersburg. He had taking refuge in the house and engaged police in a standoff for about 10 hours Monday.
Rodden explained that law enforcement had broken the window so a camera-equipped SWAT robot could take images of inside the home. But, before the robot had been positioned in front of the window, Priddy began shooting a firearm from inside the home. Rodden said Proctor and other SWAT members took cover behind shields during gunfire, but the bullet struck the detective's knee area that was outside the guard of a shield.
Rodden said the round entered and exited the flesh resulting in the need of a minor surgery. He said he talked to Proctor on Monday evening and the detective was feeling well enough to make a few jokes.
"He was in great spirits," Rodden said. "He was doing fine and not in too much pain."
Rodden said it was too soon to tell when Proctor will be ready to return to duty, but expects the motivated lawman to be back in uniform sooner than later.
"He is a dedicated guy, and won't want to be away long," Rodden said of Proctor.
While the Clark County Sheriff's office will temporarily be without a detective, the Sellersburg standoff resulted in the Indiana State Police losing one of its K-9s forever.
K-9 Kilo was killed by gunfire released by Priddy during the incident, even though he was wearing bullet-resistant vest. Kilo worked with his handler Trooper Nathan Abbott since 2007.
Trooper Mary Sanchez said Tuesday that Abbott is coping with the loss of Kilo, and was not prepared to speak with media about Kilo's death.
The agency is calling its four-legged trooper a "hero," and has organized as fund in his memory.
Kilo had assisted in many drug busts and arrests and had been featured in the News and Tribune on multiple occasions.
ISP reported the Kilo Memorial Fund will support the ISP K-9 program and that 100 percent of tax-exempt contributions will be used in Kilo's memory. Donations can be sent to the following address: Kilo Memorial Fund, CFK/ISPA Foundation, 1415 Shelby St., Indianapolis, IN, 46203

What a great firm 'RH' must have been - "thanks for all your support and custom over the years - by the way as of tomorrow you've got no bus".
Notice they thank the customers - but what about the loyal, hard working drivers?

WILMORE, Ky. —
A second-half surge by the IU Southeast women's basketball team, and strong performances by the Grenadiers' Heather Wheat, Ashmere Woods and New Albany graduate Tionna Peters led to a 92-85 comeback win at Asbury on Saturday.
The Grenadiers (15-12, 7-7 Kentucky Intercollegiate Athletic Conference) struggled in the first half to get defensive rebounds, which led to 18 second-chance points for the Eagles. Trenia Barbee had 20 first-half points for Asbury. IU Southeast trailed 45-35 at the break.
The Grenadiers came out and rebounded in the second half. Asbury only had 15 rebounds in the final 20 minutes, and the teams tied with 46 rebounds between them for the game.
IU Southeast cut into the Asbury lead early in the second half. Peters and Wheat each scored and cut the lead to single digits.
Wheat scored 20 of her 29 points in the final frame. She was able to penetrate and Asbury's defense could not stay in front, which led to foul trouble for the Eagles.
IU Southeast shot 21-of-25 from the free-throw line in the second half to help it get back into the game and eventually win it. Wheat was 15-of-17 from the line. She added eight rebounds, eight assists and three steals.
Ashmere Woods finished with 18 points and 13 rebounds. Peters had 12 points.
The Grenadiers shot 26-of-31 (84 percent) from the line in the game.
Barbee added another 18 points to finish with 38 points, but she committed a key turnover down the stretch which helped IU Southeast secure the win.
IU Southeast will host Brescia on Tuesday in a Senior Night doubleheader with the men's team. The women will tip off at 5:30 p.m., with the men following at 7:30 p.m.
• Grenadiers shoot down Eagles, 85-70: Jake Simpson had 24 points and Jeffersonville graduate Kegan Clark added 22 to lead IU Southeast past host Asbury on Saturday, 85-70.
IU Southeast (23-4, 13-1 KIAC) jumped out to an early double-digit lead behind the play of Clark and Simpson, who had 13 and 12 points, respectively, in the first half. Asbury was able to cut the lead to 38-34 at halftime.
Cameron Mitchell scored 16 of his 18 points in the second half to help IU Southeast pull away for good. He was 6-of-11 from the field in the second half.
The Grenadiers shot 50 percent from the field for the game and 67 percent (10-of-15) from 3-point range.
Austin Flannery led the Eagles with 19 points and Adam Delph added 17.

Storage resource management (SRM) is the process of optimizing the efficiency and speed with which the available drive space is utilized in a storage area network (SAN). In recent years, numerous programs have become available that can help SAN administrators accomplish this task. This diverts the burden of performing the chore manually, which can be considerable, away from administrators.
Functions of an SRM program include data storage, data collection, data backup, data recovery, SAN performance analysis, storage virtualization, storage provisioning, forecasting of future needs, maintenance of activity logs, user authentication, protection from hackers and worms, and management of network expansion. An SRM solution may be offered as a stand-alone product, or as part of an integrated program suite.

Original recipe yields 1 - 9 inch springform pan
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, sugar and butter until well blended. Press into the bottom and 1 1/2 inches up the side of a 9 inch springform pan.
- Bake for 10 minutes. In a metal bowl over a pan of simmering water, melt chocolate, stirring occasionally until smooth. Set aside to cool, but do not allow to harden.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese and 1 cup sugar until smooth. Mix in the eggs, one at a time on a low speed, or by hand. Gradually stir in the orange juice, and orange zest. Reserve 2 cups of the batter. Pour the remaining batter over the baked crust. Stir the melted chocolate into the reserved batter. Drop the chocolate batter by large spoonfuls onto the white batter. Use a knife to cut through the batter, and leave a swirling design.
- Bake for 60 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the center is almost set. Run a spatula or thin knife around the edge of the pan while it is still warm, so the cake will not crack. Allow cake to cool completely before removing the sides of the pan. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.

I'm giving this 4 stars because the original recipe does need a little help. First of all, the orange juice and zest contain nowhere near enough flavor to make this cheesecake taste orange-y at all. I suggest using a teaspoon or two of orange extract as well. I added all the orange flavors to the white batter only. I reserved the two cups for the chocolate before I added them, so the chocolate and orange would contrast nicely. The crust is great. Be sure you let your cream cheese and eggs sit out until they are at room temp, or you'll over beat the batter trying to get the lumps out. Over beating leads to all kinds of cheesecake problems! Anyway, lined my springform pan with foil and baked my cheesecake in a water bath. I had no structural or textural problems except for a few bubbles from slightly over beating. After it was done (60 min), I turned off the oven and let it cool for an hour inside. Then I took it out and let it cool completely on a wire rack. I chilled the cake overnight. I removed the hoop and bottom of the pan (tricky), and scored the top of the cake into 12 even portions. Garnished it with whipped cream from a pastry bag with a large star tip, chocolate filigree, and orange twists. I also served it with the Marmalade Drizzle from the Orange Pudding Cakes with Marmalade Drizzle recipe from this site as a sauce. It was a perfect addition to this cheesecake.
This is a very tasty, easy recipe. I made it with Grand Marnier instead of the orange juice and the cake had a lovely light flavor. It's more of a creamy cheesecake, and it's very dense. My only complaint is that the graham cracker crust was too crumbly. When I was marbling my two batters the crust was pulled away from the pan and into the cake. When it was done baking and chilling the crust stayed mostly together, but I think it was just fused to the cake. Next time I think I'll make a chocolate cookie crust and use a darker chocolate in the cake (the semi-sweet didn't prove to be quite chocolatey enough). Thanks very much for sharing this recipe.
Maccc's Mom
Oh my goodness was this good the only change I made was to use 4 teaspoons orange concentrate instead of 2 tablespoons of orange juice, because I really like the taste of orange and chocolate. I also melted the chocolate in the microwave. Thanks so much for the wonderful recipe

Speck See-Thru Sexy Hard Cases for 5G iPods
- Digg This
- email to a friend
By Jeremy Horwitz
Editor-in-Chief, iLounge
Published: Monday, January 23, 2006
Category: Cases - iPods + Accessories, iPod 5G (with Video)
Pros: A set of three see-through hard plastic cases for the fifth-generation iPod, in two versions properly sized to fit either 30GB or 60GB iPods. Each set offers clear, gray, and red color options at a reasonable total price.
Cons: Each case is simple, lacking a belt clip and protective coverage for several of the iPod's parts. For the same price, you could pick a single case that's more protective or stylish.
Having developed individual clear hard plastic Flipstand cases for earlier iPods, Speck is now selling sets of three differently colored translucent cases per package in two different sizes (30GB / 60GB). Lacking other frills, they're simple in execution and affordable as a set, letting you show off and protect the majority of your iPod's sexy body. But two of the shells also offset the color of your iPod's screen, which won't be as sexy for fans of video playback.
See-Thru rates highly on build quality, with proper alignment of all of its holes, properly finished front and rear shells, and generally good resilience. While the clear plastic shows surface scratches after routine use - a small detracting factor - this is a common issue with cases of this type. Each set of two halves uses clips to lock together firmly enough to require intentional opening force.
Not surprisingly, See-Thru also scores well in ease of use; the case makes screen and Click Wheel access very easy, and also provides full-time access to the iPod's Dock Connector port, headphone port, and Hold switch - all at the cost of protectiveness. It loses a point only because of the sizing of its headphone port hole - too small for oversized headphone plugs, but fine for Apple's earbuds and similarly sized connectors.
While See-Thru isn't an innovative case per se, it's innovatively packaged: Speck sells three See-Thrus together for the same overall price you might pay for a single competing case - a nice feature if you want to change case colors, or just find a see-through case option that's not as vanilla (clear) colored as other offerings. It's worth noting, though, that the red case does visibly change the color of your iPod's screen, and the gray case creates a slight darkening tint, like car glass - fully clear screens would have been a better idea. Additionally, there's no belt clip, a common feature of competing clear cases, and the cases themselves are very ordinary.
Rarely does a company slide backwards from highly protective cases into less protective ones, but that's what's happened with Speck since the smart FlipStand design has disappeared. The lack of Click Wheel, Dock Connector, and Hold switch coverage detracts from this score, but the strength of the clear hard plastic is reasonable.
Rating the See-Thru three-pack on value is tricky because of the overall value proposition here: get three low-frills cases for about the same price as one more protective and aggressively designed option. Some people will like this approach, while those looking for belt clip attachments or a more sophisticated design (such as those found in Contour Design's Showcases) will be left wanting. We think that these cases, while simple, are good enough to represent a pretty good value overall.
Overall, the See-Thru three-pack is a recommendable case option for 30GB or 60GB iPod owners. We're happy to see that Speck created different-sized versions of this case so as to avoid the sizing and alignment problems that have reduced the appeal of earlier, one-size-fits-all cases.

The Chartered Institute of Taxation (CIOT) is warning taxpayers that HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) have a new penalty system for late-filed Self Assessment tax returns.
The deadline for most of the UK's 10 million Self Assessment-registered taxpayers1 to file on paper for the 2010-11 tax year passed on 31 October, but they can still file online up to midnight at the end of 31 January 2012.
The penalties for late submission of returns have been toughened this year in three ways:
Tina Riches, Technical Director at the CIOT, said:
"Time is running out for Self Assessment taxpayers who want to avoid HMRC's new penalty regime. Midnight on 31 January is the deadline – there is no day's grace this year."
"In particular anyone who is liable for Self Assessment and has not yet registered for online filing needs to do so as soon as possible. HMRC say it may take up to 10 days to process the registration and you cannot submit your return online until this has been done.
"If you want HMRC to collect any tax you owe through your tax code for 2012-13 then the deadline is even earlier – 30 December. You can now ask for this on amounts up to £3,000.
"If taxpayers cannot lay their hands on the figures for their return, for example because they have not yet received details of foreign income, they may want to make best estimates and submit the return on time, rather than risk the wrath of the taxman."
"Although taxpayers can appeal against a penalty on grounds of 'reasonable excuse', the evidence from paper returns is that the Revenue are being very strict on this and taking a lot of convincing that excuses meet their criteria. Don't rely on this provision as a get-out."
She added:
"Last year 845 people filed their returns online on Christmas Day3. It's not everyone's idea of festive fun but Self Assessment taxpayers will need to get their skates on in the new year to avoid having to send an unwelcome gift to the taxman in 2012."
Notes to Editors
There are also additional new penalties for paying tax late of 5% of the tax unpaid at: 30 days; 6 months; and 12 months.
Further information on the new penalties and online filing of Self Assessment returns is available from the HMRC website at www.hmrc.gov.uk/sa/deadlines-penalties.htm
3. Last year 6,907,410 people filed online by the 31 January deadline – around 78% of all returns submitted. 845 people filed their returns online on Christmas Day, 2,408 on Boxing Day, 16,230 on New Year's Eve (including 96 in the hour before midnight!) and 5,130 on New Year's Day. The busiest day for online returns was 31 January, when HMRC received a record 572,455 online SA returns. (Source: HMRC press release, 01/02/11)

Saturday, May 11, is a big day for the more than 360 students eligible for graduation from academic and technical programs at Weatherford College. Traditionally, about half that number will take that walk across the Jerry Durant Auditorium stage at Weatherford High School to receive their associate degree diplomas or certificates.
Due to the historically large crowds, WC officials have planned two separate ceremonies to allow adequate seating for all the excited family and friends of graduates.
The first ceremony, for those completing the Associate Degrees in Arts and in Sciences, begins at 10 a.m., and the second at 2 p.m. is for completers of the Associates in Applied Science and certificate technical programs.
"By holding two separate ceremonies, we hope it will allow our graduates and their families and friends to enjoy every aspect of this momentous occasion," said Vicki Traweek, WC registrar. "Our staff has worked very hard to make this a great day for everyone!"
An appropriate ticket will be required for entry into the auditorium.
Graduates and the attendees will hear keynote messages from honor student Pender Morrow, outgoing vice president of Phi Theta Kappa, during the morning service; and mother/daughter team, Wendy and Kurstie Franks, will address the afternoon crowd.
"Wendy's mother also graduated from WC, so this is a generational accomplishment for the family," said Traweek.
Additionally, WC Honor Students and Highest Honor Students will be recognized, as well as the Faculty Member of the Year, who will be announced by Sandra Hartnitt, president of Faculty Senate and Early Childhood Education instructor.
For more information about WC graduation, interested persons may contact Traweek's office at (817) 598-6218, or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.

A brilliantly truthful film on a subject that is usually shrouded in wishful thinking, mythmongering and outright denial.
Aug 7, 2013As Cecil, Whitaker is mesmerizing. The actor seems to shrink into his imposing frame, summoning a performance of quiet, bottled-up force.
With The Butler, director Lee Daniels has managed to "Gump" the Civil Rights movement. That's not necessarily a bad thing but there are times when so many famous cameos threaten to become a distraction, especially since they're only tangentially germane to the main story.
Although director Lee Daniels dials things down a bit here, subtlety is not what he does. That strategy worked for "Precious'' but turned his more recent "The Paperboy'' into a feature-length howler.
The Butler is a lightweight, didactic movie, a kind of well-produced high-school entertainment.
Aug 9, 2013A great film about the American civil rights movement is way overdue. The Butler, overwhelmed by flash and good intentions, doesn't even come close.

Positive: 33 out of 47

Aug 22, 2013For all its contrivances, though not many, this is one great film on race that tells the story in a way that has never been told before. Every performance is outstanding. I suggest you bring an entire box of tissues.… Collapse
Sep 12, 2013I really liked this movie... It was well acted and had a great story attached to it. It was, however, sad to see such a self absorbed society that treated people so poorly. I must say that I find it inspirational how this man lifted himself above the reproach of such a cruel society. I was impressed with his moral out look and his tenacity to stay focused on importance of job and family even though he had to fight through much racism. This is a great movie.… Expand
Aug 21, 2013I wanted to see more about the travails of a black butler in the (literally) White House. Instead, we focus on his private life--and, more importantly--the life of his eldest son. Still, this ploy allows us to march down the long hard road of civil rights pioneers. This is a great history lesson for young blacks and for any and all Americans as well. Lots of cameos (who knew Alan Rickman could make such a good Ronald Reagan?) but the two leads provide most of the acting kudos in this timely film.… Expand
Nov 24, 2013This is a moving chronicle of a semi-fictionalized White House butler as seen through the civil rights movement. It has a fantastic montage (or maybe more like a series of intercut scenes) of the black staff at the White House and the Freedom Riders in Alabama. It was one of the more amazing intercut sequences I've seen. I teared up twice during this movie. Whitaker is great.
This movie is also an over-the-top melodrama. It is so melodramatic that, even given the subject matter, I'm calling it melodramatic.
So I think a 6 is about right.
The movie is a biopic/history series of events, with a few threads tying it together. But given the subject matter, I can't really fault it for not having a more traditional structure or conventional dramatic arc. If you're interested in the premise, go see it.… Expand
Sep 6, 2013Long and tedious. Two stars maybe. Fair acting. Good film clips. Dull in parts and way too long ..Save your money. Definitely not worth the money or time.… Expand
Oct 1, 2013This movie is well done and Forest Whitaker gives a great performance, but I'm giving it a 1 because it just undeniably racist. Okay reference Obama great that's cool, first black president is a big deal I understand that. When you say that Reagan, one of the greatest presidents ever, was a racist...that pisses me off. There is no reason to have put that in the story. It's wrong and frankly just a low, pointless act of racism. White people can't do anything about it though but just wow, based a true story? Right, this is why racism still exists.… Expand

Field of Specialization/Research Interests:
I am interested in Plant Physiology, Soil Microbiology, and Soil-Plant Relations, and their application to Floriculture and Ornamental Horticulture.
My research is focused on the biological, chemical and physical properties of container media used for production of greenhouse and nursery crops. In plant mineral nutrition, I have studied plant responses to nitrogen and phosphorus nutrition, including the physiology of plant response to ammonium and nitrate nutrition, and simultaneous influx and efflux of phosphate from roots of intact plants. I have evaluated nutrient availability from controlled-release fertilizers and composts. In addition, I have studied water retention, lime reactions, pH buffering, and pH adjustment in soilless potting mixes.
My most recent research has been concerned with the the use of biological controls for soilborne diseases affecting container-grown crops. Commercial biological inoculants have been evaluated for the prevention of blackleg disease caused by the pathogen Pythium ultimum in geraniums. These microbial inoculants are also being evaluated for the alleviation of abiotic stress or growth stimulation in the absence of pathogen pressure. Molecular markers have been developed to identify and quantify specific microbial inoculants in soilless potting mixes.
The direction of my research program is evolving. My attention is currently focused on issues related to sustainability. Root-zone management, especially irrigation, is coming to the forefront for minimizing the impact of high-intensity production in greenhouse and nursery operations.

Thread: 5.3l rebuild kit?

5.3l rebuild kit?
I have some worn piston rings on my 2003 Chevy 1500 with a 5.3l, and I figured since I was gonna replace my piston rings I might as well rebuild the engine and replace everything, rings, bearings, gaskets, etc.
i looked online on Summit and Jegs and not much luck.
does anyone have any recommendations on a website/ or a specific brand that I can get a rebuild kit from?2003 Chevy 1500 5.3l VORTEC
I haven't rebuilt in a lot of years, so my experience is around the old versions that had a lot of sloppy tolerances. When we rebuilt those older Chev V8s, we would have the cylinders re-bored so the diameter would be the same from top to bottom (this prevents rings binding); we would also have the crank journals turned so the bearing surfaces would be perfectly round (this prevents the out-of-round journal from beating up the new bearing). We would also have the heads resurfaced to ensure they sat level on the block.
That was done with an old V8 that had a ton of built in slop; the new engines with very tight tolerances will probably be even fussier.
But, to answer your "where can I buy" question, I would always buy the new rings, gaskets, bearing, etc from the shop that did the clean up work. The logic was, they knew how much they removed, they would know which over-size parts I would need.
My 2 cents, for what it's worth.Ray

thanks for the advice but i havent done any rebuilding to the engine yet, and when i do i was planning on rebuilding it on my own, i have all the shop tools to do such, i was just wondering if anyone knew of a good brand or company who makes a rebuild kit with everything in it.
If you have a shop and knowledge of this work you should be aware that getting the parts from GM or the GM supplier is the correct way to go. as mentioned with these engines having a proper match for this is very important.
I know of an example of this with a number of compressors being rebuilt and how the parts did not match the required specs and they all had to be redone.
I would replace the pistons and get all the parts from the OEM supplier. that way you will not have any issues.
how did you determine you had SOME piston rings worn ? normally they all should be worn not some.

About this design:
Red is a great power color, and I wanted to make a fun necklace to wear that matched my purse. That was the inspiration. I found the fat spacer beads with flowers that echoed the pendant and used them together. I love it because it makes me happy to wear it and it contrasts well with several colors I wear with red, such as navy, black, white, gold, and dark green. It's also a statement to all to vote Republican.
Components:Silver plated pendant, clasp, and spacers, red coral beads, beading wire and crimp beads.

Isn't it amazing how different the red looks against the mustard than the print? I love the medallion, and the entire piece is so snazzy!
Very pretty,and bold. Those spacer beads are really different.You must get compliments every time you wear it!
I like the colours in this too, and the spacer beads.
