Each person elected as a Senator to the Staff Senate shall be elected for a three year term. Each such person shall be eligible to serve two consecutive terms of three years each, but following the second term shall not be eligible to serve until after the lapse of an intervening year.
Vacancies may be due to resignation from Staff Senate, transfer from area represented, or termination of employment. If a senator transfers outside the area he/she was elected to represent, but remains a staff member of the University, he/she must inform the Chairperson of the departmental/occupational transfer. He/she may exercise the option to serve out the remainder of his/her term, subject to Executive Board approval. Otherwise, vacancies may be filled by the person who received the next highest number of votes in the previous regular election or by appointment of the Executive Board.

Section 3. University Committees
The Staff Senate Chairperson shall recommend a member of the Senate or an employee from staff at-large to represent Staff Senate on University committees at the request of Administration, taking into account the expertise of the member and his/her area of representation. Outgoing members will be asked if they wish to remain as the Staff Senate representative on the University committee in which they serve. If they wish to remain the representative, they will be expected to make regular committee reports during Senate meetings. If the outgoing member chooses not to remain the representative, a replacement will be appointed immediately.
The Staff Senate Chairperson may call special meetings of the Senate as deemed necessary or at the written request of three (3) Senators.
A quorum is required to have an official meeting and conduct business. Quorum shall be set at one-half of those deemed voting members of the Senate.

Representatives of Faculty Senate, Student Government Association, Parliamentarian and the Senate Executive Board are non-voting.
At the onset of each Senate meeting, the Chairperson shall inquire verbally with the Senate Secretary as to the presence of quorum. The Secretary shall verbally confirm when asked that quorum has or has not been achieved.
If during the course of a senate meeting quorum is lost, the Secretary shall inform the Chair that no further official business may be conducted. In that event, the Senate shall refer to the most current edition of Robert's Rules of Order for appropriate options.
The rules contained in the current edition of the most current edition of Robert's Rules of Order shall govern Staff Senate in all cases to which they are applicable and in which they are consistent with these bylaws.
Any University staff members may propose an amendment to the Staff Senate Bylaws. The proposed amendment shall be provided in writing to the Director of Staff Senate Operations, at which time a bylaws workgroup will be established to review the proposed amendment. After review, the bylaws workgroup will submit its recommendation to the Executive Board to be placed on the agenda for the next meeting. The amendment will then be brought before the full Senate for vote. Two-thirds (2/3) vote will be required.
Amendments to the Bylaws shall be considered official and adopted upon a passing vote by the Senate and approval by the President of the University and Administrative Council.

ArtAbout Guide for September 2013 Other side of ArtAbout Guide for September 2013
|Mostly downtown, with many galleries and other business venues involved
|Second Fridays, circa 5:30-9PM -see website

|Sandy Thai
|ArtAbout Interactive Map
ArtAbout is Davis' monthly art walk. It takes place on the second Friday of each month from approximately 6 PM to 9 PM. Most venues hold their receptions at this time. Some businesses participate as ArtAbout venues along with most of the town art galleries. Printed maps are available at The Artery, Pence Gallery, International House Davis, and other ArtAbout participants. This is all free, of course.
It was founded by The Artery, and is overseen by a committee consisting of core members Stewart Savage and Nina Gatewood (Davis Downtown Business Association AKA DDBA), Sandy Thai (RockBand University, DDBA), Natalie Nelson & Eileen Hendren (Pence Gallery), and Cathie Duniway & Diana Fong (The Artery). Sandy Thai was hired by the DDBA in March 2013 as the new ArtAbout Coordinator. She is in charge of matching artists with Downtown businesses. All artists and businesses interested in participating should contact her at firstname.lastname@example.com.
The Winters Art Walk is the week before on the first Saturday of the month, and the Sacramento Second Saturday art walk follows it (usually, depending on the calendar) the next day; these are also highly recommended.

the communications integration team
The communications strategy has been created in order to provide clear and synchronized messages about the federation and our campaigns so that we can better harness the power of all of our groups and campaigns and move to a higher level in terms of our credibility and impact as a global federation. The strategy includes a goal, objectives, main messages, key audiences, and important tools.
As with other areas of the FoEI strategic plan, we hope that groups will work to align their own communications strategies with the federation's strategy. The idea is that national communications strategies, regional communications strategies, and the FoEI communications strategy are mutually supportive. Groups are of course free to use the elements of the strategy that work best in their national context, and also to adapt other elements to fit their specific realities.
The strategy will be implemented by a new team, the Communications Integration Team (CIT), which includes representation from each region, as well as from the programs and membership areas of our work.
Each program and campaign also worked throughout 2009 to draft key communications messages that will be integrated into the overall communications strategy.

Thank you everyone for your replies (: I am highly surprised by the number of folks that find martha appealing. I've had some trouble because the only rival to DH was a man named Martin and DH is a sore winner, haha. I love Marit and Moireach. Mara is beautiful too but not so much with Seraphina.
My mother's middle name is Kay but using that would more honor me than anything, as my name is a combination of my mother's middle and my sister's middle.

Mount Pleasant is separated from Charleston, South Carolina, by the Cooper River. For many years it was primarily populated seasonally by Charleston residents wealthy enough to afford summer homes across the river from the Charleston peninsula. The population of Mount Pleasant was centered in an area of the town now known as "The Old Village."
It was determined in 1928 that a bridge from the Charleston Peninsula to Mount Pleasant was needed. Spanning Town Creek and the Cooper River and crossing the uninhabited Drum Island, the two-lane Grace Memorial Bridge opened for traffic as a toll bridge 17 months later. A second and larger bridge, the Silas N. Pearman Bridge, opened in 1966, further connecting Mount Pleasant to its mother city. On July 16, 2005, the brand new, eight-lane Arthur Ravenel, Jr., bridge opened for automotive traffic, replacing the two aging bridges.

Last week, prior to game seven of the NBA championship, pop star Christina Aguilera took her turn at publicly butchering our national anthem. She didn't really sing anything. She shouted out the words and screamed as loud as she could, barely reaching the note everyone was waiting to hear. She seemed relieved when she was finished. Weren't we all.
She joins a long list of performers who also have demeaned our national anthem, most notably Frank Sinatra and Roseanne Barr. Sinatra couldn't even remember the words. In 1990, the Cincinnati Reds hired Barr to sing the national anthem before a home game against the San Diego Padres. Of course, she couldn't sing and jokingly half-talked her way through her presentation. The public was outraged and her popularity has declined ever since. Barr defended herself, reminding everyone she is a comedienne, not a rock star. She quipped to a reporter, "At least I remembered the words."
In 1932, President Herbert Hoover officially declared "The Star-Spangled Banner" as our national anthem. Other hymns such as "Hail Columbia" and "My Country 'Tis of Thee" also were considered. In the 1940s, Irving Berlin's "God Bless America" sung by Kate Smith was considered our unofficial wartime anthem.
Prior to 1968, the national anthem was performed in its traditional form. But that all changed 20 minutes before game five of the 1968 World Series between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Detroit Tigers.
The play-by-play announcer for the Tigers was Ernie Harwell. He was in charge of finding performers to sing the national anthem before their home games. At the time, Jose Feliciano had a hit with "Light My Fire" and was performing in Las Vegas with Sinatra. Harwell invited the blind celebrity from Puerto Rico to sing the anthem.
While standing alone in left field before 54,000 fans with his dog, Trudy, by his side and with guitar in hand, Feliciano sang his own Puerto Rican style rendition of our anthem. Some baseball fans applauded. Most people in the stands jeered and booed Feliciano before he exited the field. The phones started ringing at the stadium. Channel 4, televising the game nationwide, was inundated with complaints throughout the game. Everyone was outraged. Harwell said he liked the version and didn't see anything wrong with it and almost was fired over the incident. Feliciano later apologized.
In defense of Feliciano, he always appreciated the opportunities and success he enjoyed in this country. He took advantage of the World Series appearance to thank all Americans for his success. In his heart, he wanted to share his love for our country through his own cultural, creative, upbeat rendition of our national anthem. He didn't mean to insult anyone and never understood why everyone was upset.
The Feliciano website describes the country as divided in 1968. There was no end in sight to the Vietnam War. Both Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. were assassinated and the "younger generation didn't trust anyone over 30." Race, gender, class and age discrimination were evident in neighborhoods, the workplace and even on the battlefield.
The politics and anti-social attitudes of the younger generation were new and different. They challenged the traditional views of their parents. Their social behavior, the way they dressed and their long hair aggravated and intimidated the generation that knew wars, worked hard and survived tough times. But, like every new generation, it's their music that reflects and creates the widest divide between the old and new generation. Feliciano's appearance just emphasized the cultural differences.
To me, Jose Feliciano's 1968 recording of the national anthem wasn't that offensive. As a matter of fact, I thought it was performed with an honest, heartfelt reverence and the traditional respect it deserves. However, because the presentation wasn't reflective of the traditional American style, the majority of Americans were irate.
Speaking now from the view of the old generation, all Americans should be irate with pop stars and celebrities of the new generation who, like Aguilera, use their so-called artistic license to create a new tradition of disrespect for our flag, irreverence for our heritage and mockery of country by butchering our nation's hymn of pride, "The Star-Spangled Banner."

text: Farm Story to be Told Across Key TV Networks U.S. Farmers & Ranchers Alliance partners with Discovery Communications to help Americans learn more about their food. Published on: Nov 25, 2011 Tweet Post to Your Wall. Email Story RSS Permalink Print The landmark U.S. Farmers and Ranchers Alliance is expanding its effort to tell the farm story across the United States. The group - a coalition of key ag, food and input suppliers - is targeted at bringing a lot of resources to bear on telling the story of modern commercial agriculture that engages farming and ranching nationwide. Now that farming and ranching story will be told on several networks of the Discovery Communications family. That means folks watching the Discovery Channel, TLC (formerly The Learning Channel), Animal Planet, Investigation Discovery, Science, Discovery Fit & Health and Planet Green will see one of a series of videos of farmers telling their stories. The farm-focused videos feature different farmers and ranchers talking with consumers and telling them about their operations, how they raise crops and livestock and the technology and management involved. It's an opportunity to raise the dialogue with the consumer to a higher level. The group, which kicked off its national effort earlier this year with the Food Dialogues Town Hall meetings, is pushing the message farther with this new effort. You can check out all the farm and ranch videos by visiting www.fooddialogues.com/food-discoveries. The site also contains useful information including farm-consumer survey data about consumers' priorities, including some interesting findings. For example, 64% of consumers responding to the survey say keeping food prices low is very important. And 79% say producing healthy choices for all consumers is very important for farmers and ranchers to consider when planning farming and ranching practices. Be sure to click into that survey to learn more. USFRA was founded in 2010 and is headquartered in Chesterfield, Mo. The organization represents more than 50 leading farmer- and rancher-led organizations and agricultural partners. The Alliance includes prominent agricultural groups at the national, regional and state levels that have collaborated to lead the dialogue about America's farmers' and ranchers' commitment to continuous improvement and best production practices.

Row erupts over Accrington Pals banner
11:22am Tuesday 31st December 2013 in North West
A ROW has broken out over a huge Accrington Pals banner planned for the town centre.
Office buildings in Broadway will disappear behind the 7.5m by 65m banner, as part of First World War commemorations over the next four years.
But it has been claimed two pictures featured on the banner show soldiers from Chorley, who would not consider themselves Accrington Pals. Local historian Walter Holmes, who has extensively researched military history, said: "I have identified men in those pictures. I know two groups are from Chorley."
Mr Holmes said the Accrington Pals, or 11th East Lancashire Regiment, comprised four companies.
A Company was made up of Accrington men, B Company of soldiers from Church, Rishton, Clayton-le- Moors and Great Harwood, while C and D Companies drafted in men from Chorley and Burnley.
Mr Holmes said: "They formed a battalion but never referred to themselves as the Accrington Pals, they referred to themselves as Burnley or Chorley Pals.
"To put pictures on an Accrington building of two groups of men from Chorley will have people from Chorley laughing their socks off."
But council leader Miles Parkinson, who is also chairman of the Accrington Pals Centenary Commemorations Group, said: "The pictures were brought in by Ruth Turner, the widow of Accrington Pals historian Bill Turner, so the pictures are of the Pals.
"We are commemorating the First World War and the focal point is the Accrington Pals, which is where individuals came from, as well as from towns around.
"People are saying some of the people are not from Accrington, but it's a picture of the battalion. Individuals may have come from Chorley but the picture is from Bill's collection."
Coun Parkinson said he hoped the banner would be installed in February.

Blackburnley says...
The reason for the banner is to commemorate one of the most awful events in the history of our nation and the world. The sentiments could relate to almost anywhere in the country but "The Accrington Pals" has a special connotation. When the first world war, and the pals regiments, are discussed anywhere in the UK, the first town to be mentioned is Accrington,

Rude...from start to finish – I can understand having a bad day and not being friendly, but this takes the cake. The woman who answers the phone and greets diners is just a plain and nasty individual. I made a reservation for an important client...the woman barely took the time to let me finish telling her the name to put the reservation under. She was short and not so sweet. My client then showed up for the reservation and she told them "they were bumped" because they didn't confirm. Well, had she not been so short on the phone, maybe she could have remembered to tell me about their "strict confirmation policy." Long story short, she got into a screaming match with them. Then I called to try to "fix it" and before I could say anything, she was screaming at me! I say fire this lady....I hope it's not the owner's wife .... divorce the crabapple then!
Delicious food, great atmosphere, owners are wonderful – Mirko's was reccomended to us by a few different people and when we looked it up on Citysearch we were suprised to see an average rating and no user reviews. We decided to try it anyways.
The atmosphere was beautiful. We arrived early and the owner sat us outside and served drinks to us. Once seated, the wait staff was excellent. The food was divine!
The only downside was the wine list - a little pricey. They could add some more affordable reds.

Trip Report New York City (Manhattan)
Wed, 08/3/05 9:07 AM
Here's a food report of my family's recent trip to New York City (Manhattan only), humbly submitted to provide info to anyone planning to visit there. The cast of characters: Baby Boomers mom and dad, a just-finished-high-school 18 year old, and a heading-to-junior-high 12 year old.
Most restaurants mentioned below are also reviewed elsewhere on Roadfood, so I didn't include a lot of address or phone info here.
We four Chicagoans fell in love with New York style pizza, those coal-fired brick oven pies. We had
John's Pizzeria
on Bleecker in Greenwich Village,
on 60th between 2nd and 3rd, and
on 57th. Yum, yum and yum. The crust is fab. Patsy's and Angelo's appeared to use fresh mozzarella and John's appeared to use regular mozzarella. They're all casual, but Patsy's and Angelo's décor was "prettier" while John's décor was "Roadfood-ier". We always order plain cheese pizza and often prefer to drink water as a beverage, so the cost for pizza meals was very low.
We tried hot dogs and sausage from
Sabrett street carts
, deemed them good but not extraordinary. We went to
Papaya King
on 86th (this is a one-and-only location, all other papaya 'n' hot dog places are knock-offs, copycats or otherwise unrelated). Papaya King was a big disappointment for our family. The tropical juices were not very appealing. We were very un-impressed with the hot dogs (tasted good but in an ordinary way) and likewise ordinary buns, although the bun being toasted on the outside was a plus. I normally adore onions prepared almost any style, but the seasoned onions I ordered on the dogs were so unpleasant I scraped them off and masked what was left with mustard. The Cajun fries my son ordered were very mild, which is good for me, but would be a disappointment to Cajun fans expecting something spicy. In another Roadfood thread someone said the hot dogs are the same Sabrett brand as the street carts, but I think that was one of the copycat locations. I thought the Papaya King dog had a better flavor and crisper casing than the Sabrett street cart dog.
For deli food, we tried
Carnegie Deli, Pastrami Queen, Café Edison
, and
. We liked them all (lower points for Roxy). I know there is a lot of discussion on Roadfood and elsewhere about which New York deli is the best, but we didn't approach these meals like reviewers, we were just hoping to get a good to excellent lunch or dinner, and we did.
At the
Carnegie Deli
, we had corned beef sandwiches (excellent) and potato pancakes (very good). The corned beef was very lean, which is okay with us. The Carnegie was our first meal on our first day, so I'm sure that made it seem special and we were very happy.
The meal we ate at
was only because time was late and Café Edison was already closed, so the situation was set up for disappointment. However, teenager loved the hamburger and French fries, little guy loved the scrambled eggs with huge sausage links. DH (darling husband) and I were disappointed in the brisket sandwich: dry-ish and not flavorful enough. Potato pancakes were awful.
Next night we were sure to get to
Café Edison
on time. Attention families: several Café Edison prices are low, so if you're trying to find good food at a reasonable cost, this is it. Tender matzo balls were served swimming in a huge bowl of thick chicken noodle soup rather than plain broth. We had a corned beef sandwich (excellent) and cherry blintzes (excellent). The corned beef was fatty, which is okay with us (hmmm, above at Carnegie we liked it lean, I guess we never met a corned beef we didn't like!). French toast was excellent. Pancakes were very good, although one of the three was inexplicably burned. Please read all the other reviews about Café Edison on Roadfood website and in the Stern's books.
Pastrami Queen
(Lexington near 86th) was way excellent. We had corned beef (excellent), pastrami (way excellent). My family is extremely fussy about potato pancakes because DH makes superlative thin potato pancakes at home using grandma's recipe BUT we thought that the three thick potato pancakes here fried crispy brown were great. Little guy had three frankfurters (way excellent, so much better than the Sabrett street cart and Papaya King).
One more deli comment: before we left for our trip, I only had time to go to the Roadfood "Restaurants" page and print the list of restaurant reviews there, I didn't have time to search the Roadfood forum reviews. After we got back, I couldn't resist torturing myself by reading the forum reviews to validate what we tried and cry about what we'd missed. Sure enough, that's when I learned that most of you agree that
deli is the one that's "not to be missed". If your trip to New York has not taken place yet then keep that in mind when you go. Oh, well. Next time I'll do my forum search even if I'm awake into the wee hours!
One night we went to
, a famous-reputation restaurant (for desserts and a ridiculously long wait), but we stuck it out to get the ice cream that we wanted. We agreed that it was worth it. Their claim to fame is "Frrrozen Hot Chocolate" (intriguing). It's sorta like a chocolate milkshake served in an over-sized sundae bowl, topped with whipped cream, but indeed the milkshake part was unique and tasted really good. Visually it looked like all one consistency, but when you sipped it with the straw the bottom seemed like a thinner but richer chocolate with a delicious taste. Tried to analyze and guess how it might have been prepared, such as combining a traditional milkshake with a syrup-y cocoa liquid? Or maybe it did start out as one consistency but part of it separated to the bottom? Our kids had a dense chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream and sundae toppings called "Forbidden Chocolate" or something like that. It was delicious, too.

Great report. Not surprised that you were disappointed with Payaya King. And was pleasantly surprised you liked Pastrami Queen as much as you did. A lot of people thought it never recaptured the quality of its forebearer Pastrami King, formerly located in Queens.
Lots of royalty bandied about in this post....

Mom, Thanks for the review. Doesn't sound like your family goes for a little lox and bagel for breakfast, but when you return for that sandwich at Katz's, try to get to Barney Greengrass for wonderful fish and egg dishes.
So tell us, if the tables were turned, where would you send us to in Chicago?

Now this is what Road Food is all about.
Not "where can I find tutti frutti twizzlers"
or "The horsemeat at Arby's is better than the horsemeat at burger king"
If we had more people like Imthemom then perhaps all the Road Food gems wouldn't go out of business to be replaced by Crapplebees.

I'm so pleased that you're enjoying my story and grateful for the kind words and "high fives" from all of ya. Although I didn't write for the purpose of getting responses or compliments, I admit that it's fun to read the answers that people send. I'm proud that long-time members or experienced posters feel that I'm tuned in to the original spirit of Roadfood...it's like getting an A+ from a favorite teacher! signman, I noted your question about Chicago and I appreciate you asking. I'll put together an answer and post it under its own topic. But it might take me a while to get to it as I'm preparing to move my son to college and I haven't had as much time to lurk on Roadfood. Thanks again, everyone.

I agree with you about the Papaya King at 86th Street...I used to live nearby, and there is absolutely nothing special about their products. The "juices" are definitely watered down immensely, and the hot dogs taste very ordinary...nothing better than your average street vendor dog in New York.

I am in the city about three times a month. Katz Deli is the best. Their pastami makes Carnegie's look like McDonald's on steroids.
Last week my husband and I walked across the Brooklyn Bridge (what a view and its free!) and ate pizza at Girmaldi's under the bridge and close to an ice-cream place that was mobbed with customers. He thinks Girmaldis is close to Pepes in New Haven.
I think it is hard to find Roadfood in Manhattan.

RE: Road food in NYC.
I think it is easy to find. But think about it - we don't really have "roads" in Manhattan, we have streets, ergo "street food".
What I am referring to are the food vendors around town.
What about the street gyros? Grilled Ethiopian chicken? "Halo Berlin: Worst/wurst".
And the really big find - Red Hook Park (Brooklyn) on summer weekends where the Latin Americans/South Americans gather to play soccer and eat (and sell) homemade Latin foods - empanadas, tacos, rice dishes, salads, fresh fruits, homemade hot suaces - this is REAL "road food/street food"

Sadly true about Papaya King, which used to be so good that though there were only three locations, one was right across the street. The dogs were lighter than air with that distinctive snap and a tang from the onions; the papaya juice was the weighty part of the meal, balancing the pH perfectly. Now all that's left are the snap and the memories.

I used to really like the Roxy. But, last time I went to the Dog Show (as in AKC...not Sabrett), I took a break and ran up to the Roxy. I had the chopped liver. It was hard and cold. It shouldn't have been served. Lesson: Only eat chopped liver in Delis that are known for it. They sell a lot, it moves, and therefore it's fresh, like at NYC's 2nd Avenue Deli.

You're right about that chopped liver. I've got to see what it looks like first. If there's a crust, I'm not eating it.

for repair and new project but buy the complete kit for bridge
I am new at guitar repair and have found that this does not fit all bridges. But over all it works well.
Works well on a variety of bridges.
The machining is Awful. The workmanship on this caul would have been given a D- in high school shop. The pads are glued on crooked. Haven't had occasion to use it yet but the quality does NOT justify the price. This was quickly thrown together and not inspected before being sent out. I will take off the pads and reglue them. This is the first time I have gotten junk from StewMac and have been very pleased with my previous purchases.
We're sorry to hear you had this negative experience with our Bridge Clamping Caul. After seeing your review, we thoroughly re-evaluated our stock. We only found a few units that had this problem and we removed them from inventory. Thank you for speaking up, and again, we apologize that we let you down this time.
Very good tool! Dry run went smoothly. Two things: don't forget to add cauls under the screwed clamps and be careful with the Titebond: everything become very slippery — unlike on the dry run. However, very good tool.
The idea and execution are excellent but this doesn't work well on every guitar. Some bridge designs/shapes don't work with this. Useful sometimes but not the miracle i was hoping for.
This is a very good tool for classical guitar bridges. I will prefer another bridge clamp with the same contour for the acoustic. It will be easier to clean the glue and to add pressure to the bottom of the bridge where is need it.
This clamp is great for putting even pressure on an acoustic bridge. I couldn't do it without this tool!

Man gets three years in jail after dramatic arrestBy Patrick McArdle
STAFF WRITER | September 20,2013BENNINGTON A New York City man whose arrest during a drug sweep in Bennington in January was preceded by what police called an overwhelming show of force was sentenced to serve three years in prison after pleading guilty Thursday to two felony charges.
Bernard Rowell Jr., 26, entered his guilty pleas in Bennington criminal court to one count of selling heroin and one count of selling cocaine. As part of the plea agreement, the state agreed to dismiss four other felonies and two misdemeanor charges, all of them drug related.
The circumstances of Rowells arrest were described in the courtroom by Bennington County Deputy States Attorney Robert Plunkett. Rowell was one of more than 45 people arrested in Bennington County on Jan. 16 as part of Operation County Strike which was described at the time as the biggest single-day drug sweep in Vermonts history.
Plunkett said Rowell was believed to be one of the people who was bringing drugs from New York City to be sold in Vermont although Plunkett said that nine months later, it was unclear whether Rowell was one of the major players.
Police learned during the operation Jan. 16 that Rowell was in a home on Pleasant Street but Rowell refused to leave. Police responded by sending a tactical team in special gear to the home and calling in a helicopter, flown by customs and border patrol agents, which circled the home until Rowell agreed to surrender without further incident.
The sight of the police response attracted a large number of onlookers and media, including television cameras. Many of the neighboring residents watched through open windows despite the cold and snowy conditions.
Col. Thomas LEsperance, director of the Vermont State Police, said later Jan. 16 that he believed the police response contributed to the peaceful resolution.
There are times when an overwhelming show of force will cause people to surrender. ... Having this number of officers in Bennington for today was not only necessary, it was the right thing to do, he said.
The charges to which Rowell pleaded guilty involved selling drugs to a confidential informant, operating on the behalf of police, in December.
Judge Nancy Corsones accepted the plea agreement Thursday and sentenced him Rowell to serve three years to three years and one day in prison. The purpose of such a sentence is to ensure that an out-of-state resident with no real ties to Vermont will not be compelled to stay in the state because he or she is on probation.
In Rowells case, in particular, he is expected to serve his Vermont jail sentence and then be extradited to New York where he is facing outstanding, drug-related charges.
Rowell made a brief statement to the court.
Id like to apologize to the town and the community if I caused any mischief here. I would like to just do my time and get back home to my kids, continue being a father, he said.
Corsones chastised Rowell for his words.
The mischief that you caused to the community by selling to a (confidential informant,) I can understand you using that term. The utter destruction that the dealing of crack cocaine and powdered cocaine and heroin has caused in the state of Vermont is beyond description. ... The cancer that this kind of behavior causes for families and communities is beyond description, she said.

Go on an international shopping spree without leaving Soho at this large, meticulously curated boutique. Globe-trotting owners Carol Lim and Humberto Leon create something akin to a fashion Olympics inside the store, showcasing American designers alongside both up-and-coming and established brands from other countries. The breadth of items rivals Urban Outfitters (a lofted nook has a small collection of CDs, magazines and books, and glass cases contain cool-kid accessories like neon Timex watches), but the craftsmanship (and prices, of course) is in a different league. Keep an eye out for frequent collaborations; the co-owners have a knack for coaxing the best out of mass-market brands like Keds and Levis.

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.
"We love how this card turned out! We ordered the Pearl Shimmer finish with rounded corners. The purple hues match everything we are doing at our daughter's Kauai wedding next month and are so vibrant and beautiful. It will "pop" on the white linens and the green Cymbidium orchid at each place setting."
"Personalizing this product was simple and the review team does a great job reformatting. I didn't have three courses and they did a great job re-spacing the entire menu. The menus arrived a couple days after I gave the final okay for them to be printed and they look exactly like what was shown on my iPad. The paper quality is great too, thick and sturdy. I've used both Wedding Paper Divas and Paper Style throughout my engagement and have to say I could NOT recommend Paper Style because of the paper they use. Way to thin and flimsy. Wedding Paper Divas has consistently provided me with a wonderful product. So far I've ordered our Save the Dates, one of our showers, invitations, and menu cards. Looking forward to the Thank You cards."
"The option to choose a color is a great feature. What I loved most was the ability to change the format. You can add or remove a course with no problems. Also, if you have more to write in the allotted space...DON'T worry! Divas' will fix it and make it work!!"
"I purchased the washed damsk menu cards and I was very impressed with their quality .The menu cards were a perfect addition to my invitation and escort cads.My entire experience with Paper Diva was wonderful in terms of how nice and patient customer service was. Thank you. Mrs.K"
"We ordered these menu cards as the final touch to our receoption decor. They matched our invitations, place cards etc.... We framed them and put one on each table. It was the perfect detail to tie in the wedding stationary suite, decorations, and overall look to our wedding."

Math meets poetry in "Oulipo" conference at UNC Asheville
Wed, 10/27/2010 - 3:25pm
On November 19 and 20, UNC Asheville will host a conference of poets and mathematicians celebrating "Oulipo," a literary movement founded in France 50 years ago this month. "Oulipo is mathematics and poetry in their most intimate interaction," says Patrick Bahls, associate professor mathematics at UNC Asheville one of the conference organizers. The term Oulipo is also used to describe forms of constrained and experimental poetry often involving the use of mathematics.
The conference will begin with a public presentation by award-winning poet and Oulipo expert Lee Ann Brown. The presentation, "Condensations and Equations: Poetry/Math" will be held at 7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 19, in UNC Asheville's Humanities Lecture Hall, followed by a reception in UNC Asheville's Laurel Forum, Karpen Hall. The conference will continue with lectures and workshops led by guest speakers and UNC Asheville professors from various departments, beginning at 9 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 20. The events are free and open to the public; registration is requested.
Oulipo, an acronym for "Ouvroir de Litterature Potentielle" (workshop for potential literature), was founded in 1960, and was dedicated to the development of new constraints for poetry and literature as a means of triggering ideas and inspiration. The UNC Asheville conference will focus on the creative and artistic aspects of mathematics and the formal and structural aspects of poetry. Attendees will also have the opportunity to create and share their own Oulipian works.
Lee Ann Brown is the author of two collections of poetry, "Polyverse" and "The Sleep That Changed Everything." She currently teaches poetry at St. John's University and is the editor of Tender Buttons Press. Brown is co-founder of the French Broad Institute of Time and the River, a new multi-disciplinary performance space in Marshall, NC.
Conference speakers and workshop leaders include Bahls; UNC Asheville Professor of Literature Richard Chess; UNC Asheville Assistant Professor of Multimedia Arts and Sciences Curt Cloninger; math historian Sloan Despeaux; poet Michael Long; UNC Asheville Professor of Literature Merritt Moseley and poet Kristin Prevallet. This event is co-sponsored by the UNC Asheville Departments of Literature & Language and Mathematics, the P.B. Parris Fund, the UNC Asheville Curricular Enhancement Fund, and the UNC Asheville Literature and Math Clubs.

2010 Fall Release Event
On October 23, 2010 we celebrated the release for our 2008 vintage of Cabernet Sauvignon and 2007 vintage Solari. Around 150 guests joined winery owners Cam and Kate Solari Baker along with Winemaker Andy Smith, Associate Winemaker Daniel Petroski and Winery Manager Colin MacPhail. Vineyard Manager Nabor Camarena and Viticulturist Kelly Maher were also onsite to field questions about the growing season for each vintage. Discussing some of the rich history of Larkmead was Drew Sparks, the author of A Salon at Larkmead.
Guests who braved the rain tasted through three vintages of Solari, the inaugural vintage 2001, 2007, and a 2008 preview sample. A 2009 barrel sample of the Cabernet was also on hand with the new release 2008 Cabernet. Chef Rick Warkel prepared a BBQ sampling of two cuts of beef and one cut of lamp from Fallon Hills Ranch in Mendocino. Dan Vogler came all the way from Kansas City to play a great selection of soft rock and bluegrass enjoyed by all on our crush pad.

If there is one thing you can count on in Boston, it's that the Big Apple Circus comes to town every spring. The circus is set up right on City Hall Plaza under a big old tent. We've gone to the circus a few times in the past, but when I heard several of my blogger friends were giving away family four packs of tickets to the circus, I entered a few of their giveaways and wouldn't you know – I won one of them.
My hubby, Chris, works in the Federal Building right next door to where the tent is set up, so he was kind enough to snap this picture of the view from above.
Chris and I didn't tell the boys in advance that we were going, so they were really happily surprised when they found out. We've been seeing lots of commercials on tv for it and they asked to go every time one came on. When we arrived, they were each given clown noses, which made their day. Continue reading »
