New London — Veteran New London firefighter Henry E. Kydd Jr. took over Monday as fire chief in the department's first change of command ceremony in more than a quarter century.
Kydd, the department's first black chief, was officially sworn in by Mayor Daryl Justin Finizio outside the department's Bank Street station.
Finizio said he has encountered a litany of tough decisions since taking office in New London, but "selecting a new chief was not one of them." Finizio had appointed Kydd, a former battalion chief, to the rank of deputy chief last year when longtime Fire Chief Ronald Samul announced his retirement.
Kydd fought back tears in a short address to a gathering of firefighters, area fire chiefs and family that included his parents, wife, children and grandchildren.
"I'd like to take a moment and bask," Kydd said. "I'm not a very prideful person but I'm very proud of this."
After Kydd's badge was pinned to his uniform by his wife, Pamela, the two shared a hug. Kydd thanked his family for missed birthdays and late night calls into work, the fate of every firefighter.
"They've sacrificed as much as I have," Kydd said.
Samul handed Kydd the chief's helmet shield, a ceremonial move since Kydd has been running the department since October when he was named acting chief.
Samul said Kydd was well equipped to lead the department having served in nearly ever position since starting his career in 1978.
"We've worked together for over 30 years," Samul said of Kydd. "He's well-trained. He has the skills to be chief and has a good support system in his family and the firefighters here. I have every confidence in him."
Samul, a 43-year veteran of the department who joined on April 1, 1970, and served as chief since 1985, joked that he planned to become a man of leisure.
Kydd said he looked forward to getting the "roller coaster," of the past year behind the department and moving forward.
The department went through budget struggles and looming layoffs along with controversy surrounding the hiring, firing, and rehiring of black firefighter Al Mayo.
Kydd said he first became a firefighter at a time when the New London Fire Department was recruiting minorities. He envisioned the job as a stepping stone to a career as a teacher but "caught the bug," and firefighting became his life.
Attendants left Monday's ceremony to the hum of bagpipes on their way to the Hot Rod Café for a celebration.

Help needed to adjust function to add TOC to Buddypress Docs using Better Anchor Links plugin
I have installed the Better Anchor Links plugin, in order to generate a table of contents on my Buddypress Docs pages. I can manually add a TOC at the top of documents using the tag [mwm-aal-display], but I would like to automate this, i.e. any document which uses heading tags (i.e. h1,h2,h3…) will get a TOC at the top.
In the FAQ for the Better Anchor Links plugin, It states that a PHP tag can also be used, i.e.
`output_content_links(); ?>`
But only after `the_content()`. However, if I include it after `the_content()` in the single-doc.php for BP Docs, the TOC shows up at the bottom of the document, which is not what I want.
I got in touch with Boone, developer of the BuddyPress Docs plugin, and he suggested a couple of functions I could try, which I include below. These did indeed add a TOC automatically, but unfortunately they broke the redirecting back to a document page after editing a document. When clicking save after editing a document, rather than being directed back to the page for the document, the URL for editing the document remained and I just got a blank screen. If I manually edited the URL to point to the document, I could see that the edits that I had just made were intact, so it seems that the issue is just with the redirecting.
I wonder if anyone can suggest amendments to either of the functions below to get this working?
function bbg_add_toc_to_doc( $content ) {
global $mwm_aal;
$content = $mwm_aal->output_content_links() . $content;
return $content;
add_filter( 'the_content', 'bbg_add_toc_to_doc' );`
`function bbg_add_toc_to_doc( $content ) {
global $mwm_aal;
if ( !empty( $mwm_aal ) && is_object( $mwm_aal ) && method_exists( $mwm_aal, 'output_content_links' ) )
$content = $mwm_aal->output_content_links() . $content;
return $content;
add_filter( 'the_content', 'bbg_add_toc_to_doc' );`

What Makes Life Worth While?
Life is a confusing event for most i assume, at least for me it is, and there seems to be so many factors to why i feel inferior. I don't know what i should focus on, i don't know what makes me important or what i should live for.
To me this question seem to be the most complex, i wish i could understand why i am constantly looking for happiness and where to look in the first place. I have though over this question for so long that i have lost track of what i should be focusing on.

Did you hear that central Arkansas had earthquakes Monday? The largest earthquake registered 3.8 in magnitude. Some of the quakes were felt in Louisiana, about 200 miles away. The US Geological Survey says there have been 19 recorded quakes in the area since Sunday.
Read more
It was approximately 200 years ago that the New Madrid earthquakes of 1811-1812 changed the Midwest. The quakes were so severe that the Mississippi River changed its course, and church bells rang out as far away as the East Coast. In other words, this earthquake affected much of the United States. The aftershocks lasted well over five long months. Several of the earthquakes were over the 7.0 magnitude range. Tragedies will happen, but one good thing that comes out of such horrific events is the fact that people become more aware.
There was an earthquake in Oklahoma last Saturday, November 5th. I know! For some people, this may come as a shock, but others are well aware of the occurrence, as it could be felt even into Kansas City. It registered as 5.6 on the Richter scale, which makes it the strongest earthquake to hit the area in recent times. For a full report on the earthquake and its scale, you can visit the United States Geological Survey website.

was dissapointed
These are constructed differently from the Norwegian version. Whereas the latter are thin, dense, and stretchy, these are thicker, sparse, and loose-fitting, with a swath of green material in the back that extends above the neck to line the inside of a hood. Quite nice!
unique shirts. tight but do stretch
I ordered size large net tops........no way are these large. I have been pleased to date with all orders. this is the rare exception. will give them away to friends with teenage children. gw
Brand new, true to fit, excellent quality and materials. Will definitely wear in winter as a base layer. They also extend substantially below the waist for extra protection.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- Hurricane Isaac's remnants could drop more than seven inches of rain on Indiana, but forecasters say that rain would fall over a five-day period and not in a single deluge.
The National Weather Service says rain from the storm is expected to reach Indiana on Friday and linger through Tuesday. More than seven inches of rain are forecast for much of southern Indiana and the western and central counties. Lesser amounts will fall to the north and south.
Weather Service meteorologist Brad Herold says the heaviest rains are expected Saturday night into Sunday. Between one and three inches are expected, with heavier amounts possible in isolated areas.
Herold says Indiana's drought-lowered lakes and rivers and parched soils will likely absorb some of the storm's downpours but that flooding is possible.

Saunders began by stating that she didn't agree with the word "interracial" because it implies that there are races out there that need to learn to interact and relate with each other. "In reality.. .there is only one race, and that is the human race," Saunders said. "Race is a political and social classification, not a biological one." Saunders received applause from several in the audience on this point and various others. She said that race, bigotry, prejudice and discrimination are all expressions of feeling and are not necessarily based on fact. According to Saunders, the way to overcome these emotions is through intellect. However, this is difficult to do with humans. "Intelligence, character and decency are not defined by the color of one's skin," she said. "What's true about these characteristics is that they can be found and exist in all ethnic groups in varying degrees." Saunders cited various sources, including geneticists, that support this statement. "Except for skin color and some minor physical differences, genetically speaking, there is no such thing as races," Saunders said. When asked what race she belongs to, Saunders looks at them and replies, "Human, what else?" Many in attendance agreed with Saunders response. "I just like how she put across the point that we're all human, and I think people need to quit being the victim," Wendy Rasmussen, a WSU student, said. Saunders said that people can't help but make conclusions from generalizations, leading to stereotypes. Inherent to stereotypical thinking is the tendency to judge groups of people on false premises, Saunders said. "This in turn hampers one's ability to see a person as an individual," Saunders said. Tony Castillo, an African American student at WSU, has experienced stereotypical reactions on campus. "I'll walk by and a girl will grab her purse," he said. "It's crazy." Saunders said stereotyping leads to racism; however, the way a person was raised and their relationship with their parents has even more of an effect. 'They usually lacked an affectionate, warm, unconditionally accepting parent or parents, and as a result, they grew up craving a sort of identity and authority in their relationships," Saunders said. "Having no feeling of equality in the home, the child can't grasp the concept of equality." Saunders feels it is important to reach children with important concepts of equality.

Created by the federal office of civil rights, Title IX attempts to provide all students, regardless of gender, comparable athletic opportunities. Weber State University's level of Title IX compliance was discussed Thursday by four experts from across WSU's campus. Issues were raised concerning the campus' proportion of male and female athletes compared to students. This proportion comprises an important element of Title IX 's three-prong test for determining legal compliance. "Title IX of the 1 972 Education Amendment applies to lots of different aspects of how institutions operate, but where it gets the most publicity is in the area of athletics," director of equal employment opportunity and affirmative action, Barry Gomberg said. Title IX began requiring universities to provide equally for male and female student athletes with a proportional number of athletic offerings. Gomberg explained a three-prong test developed by the office of civil rights for determining if a university is acting within the boundaries of the law. The test applies to secondary schools as well as higher education. "The first part of the test is proportionality," Gomberg said. "What that basically means is that a school will be considered in compliance if the percentage or proportion of male to female athletes is approximately equal to the percentage of male to female students in the student body." Gomberg said when WSU began working on this proportion about six years ago, the school was off by over 20 percent. "We are how below 10 percent," he said. "Nine percent, however, is not close enough." Title IX calls for compliance within five percent. "We do not satisfy the proportionality," Gomberg said. A factor often having a tremendous effect on a university's proportionality is their football program. Because of the staggering size of many university football programs, it's difficult for an institution to provide a proportional number of female athletic offerings. WSU, in the past few years, has taken two major steps toward satisfying the second prong of the Title IX test. By reintroducing women's golf and promoting women's soccer from a club level to NCAA intercollegiate play, Gomberg said, the univer- See Equity page 3 Budget cuts squeeze out staff positions By Colleen K. Hales news writer-The Signpost As the second year of the budget-reduction plan slices more out of the university's and its departments' budgets, some Weber State University staff positions are disappearing. The university has cut 20 staff positions over the last two years. Fortunately, these positions were eliminated through attrition, but service departments are finding the work is only increasing while the staff is not. The purchasing office had two buyer positions cut when the director retired. One purchaser moved into the director's position at a lower salary, and his position was not replaced. Another position was simply eliminated when a second buyer retired. This saved $44,000 for the current year.

Goodbye, Mr. Chips (1939) is a classic film looking at British school system with a rose tinted glass. It might well be for the author of the book on which the film was based was a teacher himself. Mr. Chips was modeled on W.H. Balgarnie, James Hilton's old classics master who taught for over 50 years at The Leys public school in Cambridge. James Hilton's short novel of the same name was first published in the British Weekly and then in The Atlantic Monthly (April 1934 issue).
The plot is simple. It traces the life of a British schoolteacher guiding many generations of schoolboys through almost 60 years of education at the fictitious Brookfield School, from his early career days as a young classic scholar to his slightly doddering old age.
For authenticity's sake, this melodrama was filmed at the Repton School that was founded in 1557, with actual students and faculty serving as extras in the cast.
The film was remade three times and none of these is as unforgettable as the 1939 version. (Herbert Ross' big-budget musical drama/romance Goodbye, Mr. Chips (1969) with Peter O'Toole as the schoolmaster in an Oscar-nominated performance (he won the Golden Globe award for Best Actor – Musical or Comedy), as a 1984 BBC-TV mini-series with Roy Marsden, and as the 2002 made-for-TV movie for Masterpiece Theatre with Martin Clunes in the title role.)
Robert Donat rightly deserved his Oscar for Best Actor in the year of the giants: Clark Gable (Gone With the Wind), James Stewart (Mr.Smith Goes To Washington) and Laurence Olivier (Wuthering Heights) were other nominees for the same category.
Film In Depth
The film opens within the quadrangle of the revered Brookfield School, founded in 1492:
…one can almost feel the centuries…Gray old age, dreaming over a crowded past.
A train whistle blows, signaling the arrival of chattering, excited boys for the beginning of the new school term. They file into a building for an all-school assembly, and they are about to fulfil the time-honored tradition of the British boys' school called 'call-over.' [The film ends with the same tradition.] A master stands at the doorway with a list of the names of each pupil, and the boys file past and call out their last name.
The film opens around the late 1920s.
The story of Mr. Charles Chipping (nicknamed "Mr. Chips") at Brookfield is told through flashback memories, as he dozes as an old codger in front of a fire at Mrs. Wickett's (Louise Hampton) place just across from the school:
A long time ago, yes. A long time. Things are different now. (He hears other voices: "Chips at Brookfield. Discipline, Mr. Chipping, discipline," and the last names of boys during a typical 'call-over.')
He remembers how he arrived in 1870 at Brookfield Boys School as a shy, withdrawn 24 year-old Latin master, wearing a bowler hat. Appearing eager but uncertain as a novice on the "Brookfield special" train full of new "stinkers," he is an easy target for their teasing.
The hold of the film on a viewer is built gradually. In the manner the awkward and cold school master copes with his fears of failure and disappointments (of being bypassed from becoming a housemaster with the retirement benefits and loss of his wife) we see the gift of love which abounds in one so noted for lack of warmth and vision. A traditional British school life of the time one might think is an all-male prerogative with studies and cricket predominating. Mr. Chips for all his disadvantages was lucky to find a progressive English suffragate in his first summer vacation while cycling through Tyrol, Europe.
After being introduced to a new History master, a young graduate named Mr. Jackson (David Tree), Chipping remembers how it "took time – too much time" to become a beloved old schoolmaster.
Jackson:You seem to have found the secret in the end.
Chips: Hmm? What? The secret? Oh, yes, in the end. But I didn't find it myself, Mr. Jackson. It was given to me by someone else. Someone else.
The grandeur of little people is not that they set the world on fire but they realize they could mold influences that came their way however small and make them go long way. In the present world the challenge of teaching as a profession is swamped under high paid jobs in the corporate world, teaching is far less considered as a welcome choice. Mr. Chips would have lived his life without fulfilling his potential had he not that vision. It was a gift passed on by his wife, Katherine Ellis, a charming, beautiful, spunky English girl from Bloomsbury (Greer Garson in her exceptional film debut.) She makes him thaw and see what a great calling he has.
Chipping: Do you suppose a person in middle age could start life over again and make a go of it?
Katherine: I'm sure of it. Quite sure. It must be tremendously interesting to be a schoolmaster.
Chipping: I thought so once.
Katherine: To watch boys grow up and help them along. To see their characters develop and what they become when they leave school and the world gets hold of them. I don't see how you could ever get old in a world that's always young.
Chipping: I never really thought of it that way. When you talk about it, you make it sound exciting and heroic.
Katherine: It is.
Give this core idea of a teacher who renews himself to mold so many 'stinkers' to take up responsible positions later in life is inspiring. One who accepts his humble position in life and keep the gift of life through the loss of his wife ( after just one year together she dies during delivery and also her infant) and loss of many other to war is touched by grandeur. Of course Robert Donat's acting is so exceptional we are also moved to feel empathy for him as he advances well into old age.
Towards the end we see Mr.Chips ill and on his deathbed. He is in his eighties, in response to overhearing that he was a poor chap and must have had a lonely life by himself – with regrets because he never had children of his own, Mr. Chips stirs and refutes the remark:
Doctor: Poor old chap. He must have had a lonely life all by himself.
Headmaster: Not always by himself. He married, you know.
Doctor: Did he? I never knew about that.
Headmaster: She died, a long while ago.
Doctor: Pity. Pity he never had any children.
Chips: What, what was that you were saying about me?
Headmaster: Nothing at all old man. Nothing at all. We were just wondering when you were going to wake up out of that beauty sleep of yours.
Chips: I heard you. You were talking about me.
Headmaster: Nothing of consequence, old man. I give you my word.
Chips: I thought I heard you say 'twas a pity, a pity I never had children. But you're wrong…I have…thousands of them…thousands of them…and all boys!
With his eyes closed, he smiles as the camera rises up when he passes on. He dreamily remembers many schoolboys filing past to repeat their names at call-over, while the music of the school song swells in volume in the background. The final lad, the superimposed image of the last Peter Colley, appears and speaks directly into the camera:
Goodbye, Mr. Chips…Goodbye...
The film was voted the 72nd greatest British film ever in the BFI Top 100 British films poll.
The film was shot at Winchester College and Denham Film Studios.

Page context: Home > Transport International Magazine > Issue 27 April 2007 > landmark labour case
The future direction of the European social model will be profoundly affected by the decision of the European Court of Justice in the Viking case. In a reference from the London Court of Appeal, the European Court has been asked to decide the relationship between the economic freedoms on the one hand and the right to take collective action including strike action on the other, both protected by the Treaty establishing the European Community. This is a significant EU constitutional issue.
The case arises from a dispute concerning a passenger and cargo ferry, Rosella, currently a Finnish flagged vessel with a predominantly Finnish crew, trading between Helsinki in Finland and Tallinn in Estonia. In 2003, the shipowner Viking announced that it wished to reflag the vessel to Estonia and man it with Estonian crew who would be paid lower wages and terms and conditions.
The ITF-affiliated Finnish Seamen's Union (FSU) stated that its response to reflagging would be industrial action in the form of strike action by its members. It was entitled to take this action under Finnish law on the expiry of the manning agreement covering the Rosella. The ITF supported the union and called upon its affiliates to show solidarity, in particular by not agreeing to negotiate a collective agreement for the ship in the event that it reflagged to Estonia.
In late 2003, and again in 2005, a manning agreement was signed for the vessel, linked to which is an industrial peace obligation. This will expire in 2008 unless reflagging takes place in the interim.
|"The case therefore involves an essential issue: whether, and to what extent, industrial action by trade unions in order to prevent the imposition of lower wage rates and terms and conditions of employment is permissible when ships transfer flags within Europe."
In the meantime, in 2004, Viking sought injunctions through the London courts to prevent the ITF and the FSU from taking or calling for any industrial action in the future against the Rosella or any other asset of Viking.
Legal and social principles
Viking was able to commence the action in London because the secretariat of the ITF is based in London. The English Commercial Court initially granted temporary injunctions against the ITF and the FSU, but these were later set aside by the Court of Appeal, which decided that the case raised important and difficult questions of European law. It referred a series of 10 complex and technical questions to the European Court of Justice.
Viking's essential claim is that any industrial action that would be taken by the ITF and the FSU would make reflagging pointless and thereby would impede its free movement rights, namely the right of establishment and/or the right to provide services. Were this claim to be successful, this would see a greater restriction of the right to strike than has hitherto been considered appropriate by any international or European supervisory body.
The case therefore involves an essential issue: whether, and to what extent, industrial action by trade unions in order to prevent the imposition of lower wage rates and terms and conditions of employment is permissible when ships transfer flags within Europe.
Without doubt, the four guaranteed market freedoms – that is free movement of goods, capital, services and persons – were the cornerstone of the economic vision of an internal market. But it was also clear from the outset to the supporters of the European project that market integration alone would not be sufficient to assure reliable social integration at Community level. Thus social policy, as a Community objective to be pursued independently, took shape in the primary law of the European Union when, from the mid-1980s onwards, the Single European Act massively accelerated the establishment of a single European market.
Today it is clear that the EU legal order recognises fundamental social rights of EU residents. These are contained for example in the European Social Charter, the 1989 Community Charter of the Fundamental Social Rights of Workers, and the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union of 2000. A series of key judgments of the European Court have ensured that the constitutional traditions of the member states also have significance in determining what rights are recognised as fundamental in the Community legal order.
In Finland, freedom of association is protected by Article 13 of the Finnish constitution and this right is also interpreted as embracing the right to collective action. The right to take collective action is also protected in many of the constitutions of other member states. Thus the European Court will also have to decide the extent to which EU powers can encroach on national sovereignty by making member state social models subject to EU economic freedoms.
Freedoms and restrictions
The Viking case raises similar questions of Community law to those contained in the Laval case, also currently before the European Court on a reference from the Swedish Labour Court. In that case, Laval, a Latvian company, supplied contract workers to build a school for the town of Vaxholm in Sweden but a dispute arose with the construction unions concerning an appropriate collective agreement.
Without doubt, the open borders of the single European market attract foreign workers and companies to offer their services in the domestic market. The concern over greater competition for jobs and a reduction in the terms and conditions of employment for workers already in those states has led to restrictions on the free movement of workers from accession states.
Yet while free movement of workers has been restricted, an "unintended consequence" has been an increase in outsourcing, temporary work and a flourishing secondary market for services and posted labour. Providers of services are moving from one member state to another by exercising their entitlement to freedom of establishment, and are using independent contractors or cheaper labour in ways which undercut the terms and conditions of domestic workers.
This trend is further complicated by the actions of existing service providers within the 15 previously established EU member states. They are now creating subsidiaries in new member states so as to take advantage of reduced regulatory requirements and lower labour standards. This is the situation in the Laval and the Viking cases.
The Viking and Laval cases will therefore be a major test for the European Court. The references happen at a particularly crucial time in the evolution of the European unification process. The situation of increased economic integration together with reduced social protection has already come together to form a highly explosive combination which contributed to the rejection of the European Constitution in the French and Dutch referenda. Effectively, popular approval for Europe is seen to be markedly dwindling.
The European Union and its member states have recently had to grapple at a political level with the issues of the social limits to the internal market as seen in the debate giving rise to the new Directive 2006/123/EC on services in the internal market published on 27 December 2006. It is now the turn of the European Court of Justice to address these issues in a legal context. The outcome of the Viking case, and also of the Laval case, will be extremely important for the European trade union movement's acceptance of the principles of the internal market, and its support for continued political integration in Europe.

Plastic Surgeon Dr. Stephen Weber Gives Advice to Young Doctors: "Giving Back Is the Right Thing to Do"
Making a living as a plastic surgeon isn't all about redoing the noses of Hollywood's famous faces. For many of these surgeons, the role comes with a sense of responsibility to give back to those in need, from families abroad who lack access to medical care to teenager cancer survivors who have lost their hair. Facial plastic surgeon Dr. Stephen Weber is one of these doctors. When he's not busy performing facial rejuvenation surgeries in his Denver-based office, he's giving his time to humanitarian missions in Asia, Africa, Latin America. READ MORE
Transgender Woman on Illegal Injections: "It Was So Bad, the Knife Broke During Surgery"
Be it Botox or breast implants, the decision to undergo a cosmetic procedure isn't one to be taken lightly. While the possibility of improving your self-confidence is incredibly high, corners should not be cut when it comes to researching your treatment and your doctor. Many people have had to learn this lesson the hard way, including 46-year-old Miami resident Rajee Narinesingh. Back in 2005, the transgender woman became one of several victims of Oneal Ron Morris, an unlicensed "doctor" who specialized in performing black market injections. READ MORE
Black Market Injections: Dr. John Martin Reveals What Really Happens When You Use Illegal Fillers
There are numerous benefits to getting a cosmetic procedure, most importantly improving your self-confidence. But before you ever step foot inside an operating room, it's imperative that you've done your research (both on the procedure and the doctor) and know that your surgeon has board certification. While not everyone who's skipped these steps has had disastrous results, that wasn't the case for a transgender woman named Rajee Narinesingh. The 46-year-old Miami resident was a victim of Oneal Ron Morris, an unlicensed "doctor" who specialized in black market injections using tire inflator and cement.
RealSelf caught up with Dr. John J. Martin to get the story on these illegal fillers, including what really happens to your body when you use them, the process it takes to remove them, and the possible life-threatening results. READ MORE

Added Mar 1, 2013
Melbourne, Austr...
I made this for Pattern Review RTW contest.
I used two patterns. Vogue 8813 Peplum top which is a very easy pattern and Burdastyle Magazine 7/2012 skirt 120.
I used the highwaisted skirt so it would meet at the high waist line of the peplum top. Turns out it was a perfect match.
I added some pleats to the peplum and an exposed zipper on the back.
I also lined it .
It is very bright! But I love all the neon around at the moment. Thought I'd better get on the trends of lace, neon and peplums in one garment!
You can read more here nine stitches

At Denison, champions achieve in labs and classrooms as well as in stadiums. To us, a champion's words are just as powerful as a game-winning goal or a bone-crushing tackle. Scholars, athletes, teachers, coaches, entrepreneurs, doctors, lawyers, politicians, scientists, activists—all can be champions, and at Denison, they are.
Popular Items
Founded in 1831, Denison University has a reputation for challenging academics. However, energetic, discussion-oriented classes and dedicated faculty are just part of what distinguishes Denison's programs. Take a closer look and you'll discover that Denison combines outstanding classroom experiences with opportunities to test knowledge in the real world.
As an intellectual community, Denison's vitality lies in inquiry and exploration—in consistently seeking out new understandings and points of view. Therefore, we see not just the value but the necessity of fostering a community of diverse individuals: students, faculty and staff of varying backgrounds, religions, ethnicities, abilities and worldviews who all recognize the importance of sharing their unique insights and ideas. Every voice speaks to a new perspective, so every voice matters.
Standard charges and options available to help you afford your Denison Education.
Denison practices need-blind admissions and uses the same approach in awarding merit scholarships. Students are reviewed holistically, and scholarships are awarded to those who possess a strong academic background and who, through a wide range of experiences, demonstrate potential for contributing to our community.
Describes the Student Health Insurance Plan offered by Denison University. All full-time students must have insurance coverage. This coverage is required for full-time students not covered under their family's health/hospitalization plan. Even if you have coverage under another plan, it is strongly urged that intercollegiate athletic, club sport, intramural, off-campus study participants, and international students carry this coverage.
Choosing a college or university is different from other decisions you will make. The school you choose will leave its mark on you, telling people something about you before you are even introduced. Your college or university will admit you to a particular company of alumni, present you with a particular range of options and opportunities, and open a particular set of doors for your future.

Our Two Cents
The Nelson Rigg CTB-600 Tourer is a great luggage setup for a multi day trip. The top and bottom bag are designed to be used together or by themselves if you don't need the full amount of storage space. I suggest not using the barrel bag by itself unless you have a backrest pad and a luggage rack. This bag easily converts to a backpack featuring removable, padded, adjustable backpack straps, and there are Four exterior side pockets (Two on each side). Constructed of quality UV-treated Tri-Max® ballistic Nylon to resist damage from the elements this bag is rigid and will maintain it's shape even when empty. Utilizing the "Full-Nelson" mounting system which consists of heavy duty hook and loop adjustable Velcro straps that can accommodate almost any sized backrest or sissy bar. To accommodate wider backrest pads as found on the H-D Road King, the Nelson Rigg CTB-950 King Tourer is the best choice. The "Full-Nelson" mounting system on the CTB-950 can accommodate those extra wide backrest pads. The main compartment is fully expandable increasing the storage capacity an additional 22 Liters. Security loops are sewn into the bottom of the bag allowing you to lock this bag to your luggage rack (security cable not included). A 100% waterproof rain cover (for top and bottom bag), adjustable shoulder strap, personalized combination lock,and quick release mounting straps are included. All this backed by Nelson Rigg's lifetime no hassle warranty. Nelson Rigg Luggage comes with a warranty registration card, fill it out and register your luggage.

Comments On Apr 18, 2008:Goes on like any regular oil. Spin the wheel a few times it becomes tacky. Couple more times it's stringy like filter oil. After it sits a while it thickens up a bit more and doesn't pick up debris.

Comments On Apr 18, 2008:STICKS WELL, NO MESSY SPRAY TO DEAL WITH.

The beginning of the create method... I have checked and rechecked this block of code but I can't find a mistake... I have also copy and pasted the provided at the beginning of the article. I've only been playing with ruby for about a month and this is my first time trying rails, although I have read throught the article before. I think I may just work through the tutorial again...starting from scratch and see if I have better luck... but I would like to know what I might have done wrong.
I'm am using "locomotive" to run rails with these specs:
Ruby version 1.8.2 (powerpc-darwin7.9.0)
RubyGems version 0.8.11
Rails version 1.0.0
Active Record version 1.13.2
Action Pack version 1.11.2
Action Web Service version 1.0.0
Action Mailer version 1.1.5
Active Support version 1.2.5
Application root /Users/chris/Desktop/cookbook
Environment development
Database adapter mysql

You could download Instant Rails:
It contains this cookbook app as one of its preinstalled sample applications. There you'll find the complete, working source code and you can compare that code with yours.
