text: Triumph of fiscal management Waterbury Mayor Neil M. O'Leary and his predecessor, Michael J. Jarjura, deserve the gratitude of every city resident for recording a $740,000 surplus in the 2011-12 budget. Mayor O'Leary, who administered much of the budget crafted by Mr. Jarjura and the Board of Aldermen in the spring of 2011, says he wants to give the Board of Education $500,000 in surplus money, half what the board requested to plug a budget hole. As a former school board member, Mayor O'Leary makes a credible argument that the district can settle its accounts with a half-million-dollar infusion of cash and some modest belt-tightening. By forcing the district to give some to get some, Mayor O'Leary and the aldermen can free up money to take care of some nagging problems — foremost among them, the need for furniture and fixtures for the senior center scheduled to open in January, and the poor condition of the exterior of the Hamilton Park House, home to the Seven Angels Theatre.

AbstractDrive shafts for aerospace platforms are highly loaded, stressed, fatigued, and without question must maintain their operational capabilities. A component of this importance requires a material and design that provides not only a solution to stringent design criteria, but also a high level of confidence to the people who are fielding the platform and ultimately, the end user, service men and women. With properties such as high damage tolerance, operational durability, and extremely high strength and stiffness to weight ratios, these materials are ideal for the high speed and dynamic service conditions that drive shafts operate in. At densities approximately 80% less than steel, 40% less than aluminum, and a Tensile Modulus of 20 Msi, continuous carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites offer the ability to reduce component weight while maintaining the needed strength and stiffness. The proposed manufacturing technique, automated in-situ fiber placement, offers capabilities desirable when manufacturing components that require high degree of accuracy and repeatability. With the high degree of accuracy and repeatability gained by using NC controlled equipment to place the composite tape, combined with its low percentage of labor, the in-situ fiber placement process is an excellent manufacturing approach for highly engineered, precision structures.

The anti-Communist Captain America was ret-conned into being a crazed history graduate student named William Burnside who had himself surgically altered and then dosed with a flawed version of the Super-Serum, which drove him insane to the point where he saw communist sympathizers everywhere. The subtext isn't particularly thick here: the "Commie-Smasher" was a paranoid wannabe, whereas the real Captain America is the "living legend of WWII" waiting in suspended animation during the Second Red Scare, who emerges back onto the scene with the arrival of the New Frontier and the Great Society. - Why Captain America Is the Progressive-Era Superhero We Need.

From the mid 40s to the mid 50s Coronet Instructional Films were always ready to provide social guidance for teenagers on subjects as diverse as dating, popularity, preparing for being drafted, and shyness, as well as to children on following the law, the value of quietness in school, and appreciating our parents. They also provided education on topics such as the connection between attitudes and health, what kind of people live in America, how to keep a job, supervising women workers, the nature of capitalism, and the plantation System in Southern life.

Life After Capitalism
One thing we can be certain of is that capitalism will end. Maybe not soon, but probably before too long; humanity has never before managed to craft an eternal social system, after all, and capitalism is a notably more precarious and volatile order than most of those that preceded it. The question, then, is what will come next.

Student Attacks Against Teachers: The Revolution of 1966
Student Attacks Against Teachers: The Revolution of 1966 At the Middle School attached to Beijing Teacher's College, Yu Ruifen, a female biology teacher, was knocked to the ground and beaten in her office. In broad daylight, she was dragged by her legs through the front door and down the steps, her head bumping against the cement; a barrel of boiling water was poured on her. Though she died after approximately two hours of torture, it did not satisfy the students. All other teachers in the "ox-ghost and snake-demon team" were forced to stand around Yu's corpse and take turns beating her.
Utopian Socialism as the Basis of Contemporary Anti-Americanism
Utopian Socialism as the Basis of Contemporary anti-Americanism Lee Harris argues in this article that contemporary Marxist movements have abandoned the politically realist methodology that Marx claimed as the basis of "scientific" socialist thought, and have substituted an ad hoc utopianism. Based on this latter belief, they have unwisely shifted the target of their criticism from specific American policies to America the nation itself.
Stalin, Hitler, Guilt, Finger-Pointing And Friendship:
Stalin, Hitler, Guilt, Finger-Pointing And Friendship: Timothy Garton-Ash reviews, a trifle superciliously but fairly, a very lively and soul-searching polemic between two consummate, consuming and irresistible writers, Martin Amis and Christopher Hitchens - who also happen to be old friends. Funnily enough, I'd suggest reading Hitchens's review in the Atlantic Monthly first; then the three [1] extracts from [2] Amis's book [3] and, finally, Hitchens's reply to them. All in all, it's that rare thing: a long, juicy, well-written and passionately argued polemic with plenty of insights into how generations come to terms with the honest indiscretions and oversights of their youth. Oh and there's a lot about communism, nazism, totalitarianism and the Sixties too...

Former All Black and Highlanders captain, Jamie Mackintosh,
made a surprise appearance at the New Zealand Cherry Spitting
championships in Cromwell yesterday afternoon.
Mackintosh (27) stopped off in Cromwell on his way to fellow
Southland rugby team mate Hoani MacDonald's wedding ceremony
in Clyde.
Although Mackintosh showed good technique he never challenged
the winning distance of 11.5 metres achieved by Michael
Wardill of Cromwell.
Wardill just managed to pip Perth-based Australian Champion
Clinton Thompson who held the lead for the majority of the
Thompson was the surprise winner of the Australian
championship last month in Manjimup and won a trip to New
Zealand as part of his prize package.

MLB Team Report - Chicago Cubs - INSIDE PITCH
The Cubs will be looking toward the future in the coming weeks. They're also looking at it now.
As the July 31 non-waiver trading deadline approaches, the Cubs again will look to trade veteran players for prospects.
The first player to go is utilityman Brent Lillibridge, who was acquired by the New York Yankees on Friday in exchange for either cash considerations or a player to be named later. In 24 plate appearances for the Cubs this season, Lillibridge, 29, has just one hit for an .042 batting average. He's hitting .281 this year for the Cubs' Triple-A affiliate in Iowa, where he has spent most of his time.
Pitcher Scott Feldman, who suffered the defeat in Thursday night's 6-1 loss at St. Louis, is sure to hear his name come up, as are pitchers Carlos Villanueva and Carlos Marmol, along with center fielder David DeJesus, once he recovers from a shoulder injury.
For the long term, the Cubs, 3-1 winners over Houston on Friday, have been busy signing selections from this year's amateur draft. They have not signed first-round pick Kris Bryant, a third baseman out of San Diego, but they're expected to get that done before next month's deadline.
Officially, the Cubs have signed five of their first 10 picks from this year's draft. That includes second-rounder Rob Zastryzny, a lefty out of the University of Missouri, and third-rounder Jacob Hannemann, an outfielder out of BYU.
There have been reports that the Cubs have agreed to terms with all but Bryant from their top 10, but the club is not confirming that.
The strategy after Bryant was to take as many college arms as possible, and the Cubs are getting them signed. In addition to Zastryzny, they've also signed fifth-rounder Tyler Masek (right-hander, Texas Tech), seventh-rounder David Garner (right-hander Michigan State) and 10th- rounder Zachary Godley (right-hander, Tennessee).

STREAK: Won one
NEXT: Astros (Bud Norris, 5-7, 3.64) at Cubs (Travis Wood, 5-6, 2.75)
--RHP Matt Garza threw a season-high eight innings and struck out a season-best eight as he recorded his third quality start of the season and second straight. He's now 1-0 with a 0.60 ERA in his last two starts. Chris Carter's seventh inning solo home run snapped Garza's 13-inning scoreless streak.
--2B Darwin Barney went 3-for-4 with a double and home run for his second three-hit game of the season. Barney has now hit safely in nine of his last 10 games, including three multi-hit affairs and is hitting .226 for the season.

--RF Scott Hairston now has six home runs out of 15 hits. All have come against left-handed pitchers.
--RHP Kevin Gregg earned his 11th save after a hitless and scoreless ninth. He is now 11-for-11 in save opportunities, joining Oakland's Grant Balfour (17-for-17) and St. Louis' Edward Mujica (21-for-21) as the only remaining perfect closers in baseball.
--LHP Travis Wood (5-6, 2.74 ERA) makes his 15th start of the season and 10th at home in the middle game of the three-game series. He suffered Chicago's loss in a 5-2 setback on June 17 at St. Louis with three earned runs on seven hits. He is 0-3 in his last three starts despite quality outings in each. Wood is 3-2 with a 1.89 ERA in nine all-time against the Astros.
--UTL Brent Lillibridge was traded to the New York Yankees from the Chicago Cubs in exchange for either cash considerations or a player to be named later.

He is hitting .281 this year for the Cubs' Triple-A affiliate in Iowa, where he has spent most of his time.

The following are best practices for NetBackup for VMware:
For a more efficient backup, the NetBackup media server and the VMware backup host should be installed on the same host.
When creating virtual machines, use the same name for both host name and display name. If the policy's Clients tab still work.option is changed, the existing entries on the policy
VMware recommends that you run no more than four simultaneous backups of virtual machines that reside on the same datastore.
Successful VMware snapshots depend on the following:
The amount of I/O that occurs on the virtual machine datastore. Backups should be scheduled when relatively little I/O activity is expected. Reducing the number of simultaneous backups can also help.
Limit access to the datastore per policy: Use theattribute in the NetBackup policy.
Limit access to the datastore globally (across all policies): Use the Host Properties Resource Limit screen.
The design of the I/O substructure that is associated with each virtual machine datastore. For correct I/O design and implementation, consult your VMware documentation.
Make sure that the VMware backup host has enough memory to handle the number of simultaneous backups that occur.
Include in a single NetBackup policy those virtual machines that use the same datastore. This practice lets you control the amount of backup-related I/O that occurs per datastore, to limit the backup effect on the target virtual machines.
NetBackup supports multiple backup hosts. When a single backup host is saturated with a backup process, another backup host can be added to increase backup throughput.
If a VM's disks are accessible to multiple ESX hosts, the disks can be accessed for backup or restore through any of the ESX hosts. The ESX host may or may not be the ESX host where the virtual machine is running or registered. All of the following must be accessible to each other and should have DNS configured:
Upgrade to the latest version of VMware vSphere or Virtual Infrastructure.
See the Symantec white paper titled NetBackup for VMware Best Practices Guide.

Gaspar Marcos stepped off the 720 bus into early-morning darkness in MacArthur Park after the end of an eight-hour shift of scrubbing dishes in a Westwood restaurant. He walked toward his apartment, past laundromats fortified with iron bars and scrawled with graffiti, shuttered stores that sold knockoffs and a cook staffing a taco cart in eerie desolation. Around 3 a.m., he collapsed into a twin bed in a room he rents from a family. Five hours later, he slid into his desk at Belmont High School, just before the bell rang. The 18-year-old sophomore rubbed his eyes and fixed his gaze on an algebra equation.

How do I stay
In his documentary "the Drew", about a summer basketball league in South Central Los Angeles, 2-time NBA all star Baron Davis uses a basketball league to convey the compassion and the loyalty that allowed him to go from South Central to an exclusive Los Angeles high school to U.C.L.A. and the N.B.A. without leaving home.
"It is a 'hood story and it's a positive 'hood story," Davis said in a recent interview. "There's good stuff in our neighborhood: good people, good leaders, good mentors. That was the beauty of the film."

post-traumatic stress and the expansive anatomy of empathy

Getting the drop on a drop bear
The well-documented foodie lifestyle in the megalopolis of Los Angeles is extending now to the native fauna: P-22, the celebrity mountain lion currently living in Griffith Park and bored of its usual deer and raccoon fare, allegedly bypassed an 8-foot fence topped with barbed wire at the LA Zoo and ate a koala (warning: brief description of koala leftovers). This has sparked a debate about whether the mountain lion/puma/cougar should be relocated or left alone. [more inside]

Kwasi Boyd-Bouldin has been documenting the Los Angeles urban landscape for over a decade. His latest project, The Los Angeles Recordings, examines the physical structure of neighborhoods and how they are molded and reconfigured by outside elements (demographics, gentrification, the passage of time.) "The Los Angeles Recordings is a project I've been working on in some way, shape, or form for over a decade. Very soon after getting into photography, I recognized the medium as a way I could show others the city as I viewed it. LA's people, landscape, and topography exist in a state of constant change that is, in my opinion, rarely portrayed from street level." [h/t] [more inside]

"The leak accounts for 25 percent of daily greenhouse gas emissions"
Two months in, Porter Ranch [California] gas leak compared to BP Gulf oil spill: More than 1,800 families have been relocated by the gas company and more than 1,000 remain on a waiting list. Some say they can't remember a displacement of residents this large since the Northridge earthquake in 1994, when 20,000 people were left homeless. Two local elementary schools have been impacted, with nearly 2,000 schoolchildren and staff slated to be moved to other schools in January. Enough methane gas is being released to fill the Empire State building each day, state officials have said, and the concern has even reached the Federal Aviation Administration, which issued temporary flight restrictions over the area for small aircraft and helicopters.

"Although Undertaking L.A. will offer a conventional service like cremation, it will also work with families to facilitate what the two call a "more natural" death — no formaldehyde cocktail, no pods that fill hollow eyes, no mouth former, no satin-lined casket, no metal vault. The goal is to promote home funerals. If family members care to, they can undress, bathe, and cool the body with ice themselves or they can watch Carvaly and Doughty do so. "What I believe to be the problem is the lack of the dead body, the lack of reality, the lack of the ritual around the death," Doughty says. "The solution is a return to all that."Caitlin Doughty, previously

"In some quarters, the scorn that New Yorkers once piled on Los Angeles is now sounding like envy." (SLNYT) "Indeed, Los Angeles has seemingly become the flight fantasy of choice for the likes of Ms. Turner, who insists that anything good she was giving up in overpriced, overstressed Brooklyn is already in place on the booming east side of Los Angeles: the in-season Zambian coffee outposts, the galleries, the vintage clothing boutiques."

The Last LA Freeway
Although competing theories about urban planning were part of the long battle, it was about more than just the best way to move people through a sprawling megalopolis. The freeway became a focal point for resistance to paternalistic urban renewal, but then, ultimately, an example of socially responsible civil engineering. When the rubber finally hit the road on the 105, Judge Pregerson's ruling ensured that central planners could no longer impose public-works projects on communities without residents having their say.

"Though there were manufacturers in several parts of the United States, the great preponderance of commercially-made aluminum trees were created by the Aluminum Specialty Company of Manitowoc, Wisconsin. When their 'Evergleam' line debuted in 1959, many embraced the shiny trees as an expression of the new Atomic Age. The trees appealed to a Jetsons-style notion of modern living where life was clean, automated and easy; with an aluminum tree, needles never fell, it could be stored compactly and re-used every year, with none of the fuss of a real tree."

Re: Moon vs Fenech
Difficult one...Fenech is the bigger guy and has better overall skills. For at least a portion of this fight I see Jeff muscling the fight where he wants it and landing more often.
But Moon is quite simply a wrecking ball..One of the hardest p4p punchers of alltime..His super aggressive style clashing with Fenech's aggressive style something is going to happen. Fenech is hitting the deck or at least getting wobbled a few times and that might totally change the dynamic of the fight. Might force him to be quite timid but then again he might just fire up and make the right adjustments.
Whether he can hold on and maybe grind out a decision Im not sure...Because Jeff had a pretty decent beard at these weights whilst the cutting wasnt effecting him adversely. But decent, good, very good even excellent chins could be dented by a guy like Moon, he didnt even need to land clean to knock you out.
Its going to be a war....maybe I side with Fenech here though.

Trace Elements from Soil to Human
Not for sale in

moreThe understanding of fundamental principles and phenomena that control the tra- fer of trace elements in soil-plant-human chain can contribute to the protection of the environment and human health. Many books, articles, and reports have already - scribed both fundamental and/or detail problems related to these topics. The intention of the authors is to provide up-to-date and selected interdisciplinary data for the concise presentation of existing knowledge on trace element transfer in the food chain, from soil to human. To accomplish this, the inclusion of appropriate data has been necessary. This book inevitably leaves publications of many investi- tors' uncited. The authors regret that such approach was necessary. This volume is composed of two parts. Part I – Biogeochemistry of the Human - vironment – presents fundamental information on biogeochemical properties of en- ronmental compartments (soil, water, air, plants, humans) concerning trace elements. Part II – Biogeochemistry of Trace Elements – provides detailed data of the behavior and the occurrence of trace elements in the environment. There is a close relationship in the biogeochemical behavior between elements and their position in the Periodic System. Therefore, the format of this book follows the elemental sequences of the contemporary Periodic Table. The book provides data on the production usage, and on the occurrence of trace elements in soils, waters, air, plants, and humans (animals). Environmental stress, and biological functions of these elements are widely discussed. less

42 year old woman | Durham, NC, United States | Seeking men 34-45
Sweet California girl who values niceness above all other traits.
I'm fun loving and value my family and friends immensely. My career is important to me and I appreciate someone who values that as well. At the same time, I love to go out, travel, and see the world even if it's just in my backyard. For fun I love to go out and consider myself adventurous, but I also love to spend a quiet night at home watching silly action movies and chilling out. I ultimately would love to spend time with someone who enjoys having fun, is easy going, and loves life!
Alumni connections , Cooking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Travel/Sightseeing
Dancing, Walking / Hiking
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I have Cats
I like Dogs
I have a cat that I adopted quite by accident. She was abandoned outside my friend's house and I just picked her up and took her home, got her cleaned up and checked out and she has been living with me for the last year.
After having had a chance to explore Durham and the surrounding areas, I enjoy relaxing with a great cup of coffee or having a meal at one of the many amazing cafes and restaurants i.e. Cocoa Cinnamon, Old Havana, G2B,...
I'm enjoy all kinds of entertainment i.e. movies and TV. While I love some of the current dramas like Mad Men, Breaking Bad,... I'm also a secret SciFi/comic book movie fan (Star Trek TNG).
I love spending time with friends and just exploring new areas. I'm pretty adventurous and love to travel. While I have some favorite activities I'm open to new things!
I'm currently reading The Tipping Point but also love getting lost in a good action book i.e. Jack Reacher. My tastes are pretty diverse.

I've implemented my own
String class, and need to write
Concat method.
I can't get it work.
My code is:
//the m_str is private member which is initialize in the c-tor
//this function is get a string and concat it with the original string
String &String::Concat(const char *string)
int original_str_size = length(m_str);
int other_str_size = length(string);
int needed_length = original_str_size + other_str_size + 1;
char *str_copy = m_str;
m_str = new char[needed_length];
m_size = needed_length;
int index = 0;
for(; index < original_str_size; index++)
if(index < original_str_size)
m_str[index] = str_copy[index];
m_str[index] = string[index];
m_str[index] = 0;
return *this;
The problem in the
Concat method is that I wrote something like:
String word3 = word1.Contact(word2);
It is supposed to make
word3 to be like
word1+word2 but the program failed when I ran it.
When I wrote:
cout << word1.Contact(word2).Length();
...it printed only the
word1's length, instead of the combined length.

Chris Hussey pounced twice in the second half to stun the home crowd and ensure it was theLeague Two club, not David Weir's side, which reached the second round.
United captain Michael Doyle had earlier threatened to take the tie into extra time when he levelled from long-range but the Albion defender had other ideas.
Rowett said: "It goes without saying that I'm delighted to go through.
"Those were two great finishes from Chris but we also had to show the other side of our character at times because United are a good team.
"They put us under pressure for periods. But we dug in and took our chances when they arose.
"We always knew we'd have to work with and without the football. The lads did exactly what we asked of them and I can't praise them enough.
"The challenge now is to try and ensure we maintain the same standards. Especially in the league."

One particularly sunny day early last June, as he regaled a visitor to his Toronto home with tales of his headline-grabbing days in the sports spotlight, Charlie Francis abruptly picked up his cell phone and called his former protégé Ben Johnson, the onetime fastest sprinter on the planet who is remembered as one of the first marquee names busted for steroids. Within a few minutes, Johnson, who is 47 but still carries a muscular sprinter's build, sauntered into the Francises' second-floor family room and pulled up a seat alongside his coach.
The old gang was together again, smiling and reminiscing -- the Canadian sprinter who showed the world what hard work and a heavy steroid diet could do at the 1988 Seoul Olympics, and the old coach, always the smartest guy in the room, who even back then boldly suggested that the best track athletes in the world were doping and getting away with it.
As history has proved, he was onto something.
Francis, a brilliant coach and student of human physiology, died Wednesday in a Toronto hospital after a five-year battle with cancer. Only a day earlier, Johnson had stopped by for a final visit.
"Well, this is the first time the world had seen 9.79 run," Johnson recalled last June of his record-shattering Seoul performance. "Testing positive [for the steroid Stanozolol] there and the automatic [suspension] comes out -- everybody says drugs is the reason [for the time]. But I don't think that was the case. I think it was more than that.
"It was Charlie coaching me, the genetics and the hard training for all the years. Charlie coached me to run fast."
But two decades ago, folks were looking for a scapegoat after Johnson -- who blew away American rival Carl Lewis in Seoul -- let the genie out of the bottle on doping in sports. Johnson went from a national hero in Canada -- as well in his birthplace of Jamaica -- to being branded the world's biggest cheater. Francis, his well-spoken, Stanford-educated coach, was banned from coaching and forced to consult discreetly with athletes in the dark of night, out of the spotlight.
Francis didn't run from the truth, though. Unlike recent developments that have seen some prominent U.S. athletes and coaches facing perjury charges after being questioned by federal investigators and even by Congress, he didn't deny his connection to steroids.
When Canadian authorities impaneled the Dubin Inquiry to investigate the doping scandal after Seoul, Francis was the first witness called, testifying for eight days. He acknowledged responsibility for introducing Johnson to performance-enhancing drugs. He helped set the tone for the hearings when he testified to the widespread use of drugs. As the late Charles Dubin wrote of Francis in his 638-page report: "He believed that the majority of world records broken in sprint events in recent years were achieved by athletes who were on steroids and that the dramatic improvement of their performance could only be explained in that way. In his opinion, in order to compete successfully against those athletes at the very top level, an athlete had to take steroids."
He was later banned from coaching in Canada as a result of his testimony.
Francis thought highly of Dubin and his efforts, and when Dubin passed away in 2008, Francis and Johnson attended his funeral.
"It is interesting when you think back on that situation," Francis said last June of the post-Seoul days. "Initially, I found it incredibly frustrating because you'd be standing around and people would be talking who didn't know their business. They didn't know what they were talking about. What happened in the Dubin Inquiry is you had a period of time where people now understood what was going on.
"It drove the officials crazy, of course. They didn't want to hear it. They didn't want to know [about the steroid use]. And, of course, they have to make the worst example. And nobody can be worse than me because I talk about it under oath and all at the inquiry. So, of course, this drives them all crazy.
"And they later wanted me to come back [to coaching]. I'm told I can get myself re-instated. But, well, the only way you can get reinstated is to say [the testimony] was all bulls---. That I was wrong. What is the point of it? So I just stay out of it."
Instead, Francis, 61, became a highly sought-after personal trainer, working with clients ranging from Toronto businessmen to pro athletes. He worked briefly with sprinters Tim Montgomery and Marion Jones in 2003 before the public revelation of his role led the sprinters to end the relationship. He also wrote two authoritative books on sprinting and along with his wife, Angie, a former top Canadian hurdler, operated a popular training website, charliefrancis.com.
Francis was never the demon or the bad guy he was made out to be after the Seoul doping scandal. He was a decent guy, a stand-up character who confessed to his mistakes and went on to shed a rare light on doping in sports. Even out of the spotlight, he was still widely perceived to be the valedictorian of sprint coaches and was regularly in consultation with coaches and athletes.
Francis himself was once one of Canada's top sprinters, qualifying for the 1972 Munich Olympics. He ran at Stanford on a track scholarship.
Born in Toronto, Francis lived in the city's upscale Rosedale section in a 19th-century home previously owned by his parents. The restored home serves as a gallery to many of his late father's paintings and art works, as well as housing the keyboard and guitars Francis played with his own 11-year-old son, James.
The day Ben Johnson visited last June, Francis and a visitor walked his young son to and from his neighborhood school. Later, with his wife, Francis stood and cheered as his son placed third in the 100 meters at the city championships -- on the same University of Toronto track where Usain Bolt competed a day later.
"For me, my life has been better since I stopped coaching," Francis reminisced last June.

If you are connecting to multiple services I advise to buy flexi fares in case of delays along the way. I our case the flight was delayed 15 minutes and nearly caused me to miss a connection.RobertP
There was no gluten free meal which was offered at booking, space between seats was very narrow. Walk to the gates was very long and signs for the destinations were not visible at all but all the screens at actual gates showed only UEFA advert. We nearly missed our flight because of this cause gate number shown on our boarding pass changed and we found out about that by pure accident at the last minute. Check in bag cost extra 20€ each way so we decided to take only hand luggage.Dada
Clear and easy, all you need is booking the ticket and check-in online or at the self-chek-in machine.Ting
My wife's title was indicated as Mr in the notice and boarding pass from your side, and it could not be corrected through the web. So I had to make a call and spend hours to correct that. It was not good.Engineer
I felt not well taken care of when I approached you to help me change the dates of my return in two occasions. I expected you to help me but you refered me to the airline instead. I don't see the reason of paying the option of not being charged in the event of changing the air ticket. That one thing I felt not well handled.pato
The flight attendants and the crew were very friendly and the flight itself was OK. However, Air France lost my baggage twice (!) in one trip and also some of my items got lost (stolen) from my check-in baggage. As I have never had such an experience before, this is by far the worst airline I have ever flown with. Will avoid it in future as well as Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris.Simona
I was astonished that I had to pay for my suitcase on my return journey ! Also that I had to leave from a different airport and fly via Paris to MarseilleMargy
I did not take this flight because the air strike by French workers spooked me into a contingency planed takin a Eurolines bus to Utrecht from Perpignan. We had been caught by the previous strike action on March 20th when our flight to Barcelona was cancelled and did not feel secure that the April 1st flight would go too.Pissed off
you are truly amazing. you have cancelled my ticket and now you are asking about my flight experience????wtf
At the reservation the check-in luggage was not clearly described. I had the expectation that one luggage is included in the price, as happened the way to Reyjkjavik (Air France, Icelandair), but the flight back (Norwegian) I had to pay 100€ fee for the luggage. Better would have been to call the attention at the reservation that Norwegian may have different policy.Ambrus
The connection was exhausting. Besides in the up the flight delayed and we lost the original flight from Paris to MadridOfek Alon
AIr France was cheaper than Singapore airlines on this flight. But their business class is not as good. They were a bit more expensive than Emirates or Qatar but it was a non stop flight.Beatrice
Because of your few information couldn't fly because of the visa... I want my money back .. And never travel again trough you agencyTrommeloco
They put us on the plane and made us wait 2 hours before taking off. It was boiling hot with no A/Cs on. The flight itself was rather hot and the stewards continuously ignored our bell whenever we needed something. It took 15 mins for a steward to come hand me a tissue when a drink was spilled all over me. Horrible experience and will avoid using Air France in future.Pooch

Public Policy and Urban Affairs
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Hometown: Los Angeles, CA
Major: Anthropology & Sociology
Minor: Political Science
Concentration: Public Policy & Urban Affairs
Study Abroad: Caceres, Spain
Best Adjective to Describe You: Restless
In 10 words or less, why should a student want to be involved in this department?
Urban environments are the breeding ground for social justice solutions.
What initially drew you to this department? What keeps you coming back?
I grew up in the second largest city in the country so I've been exposed to a lot of the issues affecting urban environments today such as transportation, inequality, access to healthcare, etc. etc. In high school I went from wanting to be an engineer, then to an architect, and finally to an urban planner because I realized I like studying the sociology of cities and urban environments. I like how the PPUA department is very open to all majors/ interests and that I can combine my interests in ANSO and Poli Sci into one department.
What's your biggest piece of advice to first years and sophomores in this department?
Try to take the required courses as early as possible, but don't feel that you are limited to those courses. I have used classes I've taken outside the list of required courses to fulfill the requirements because they are relevant to the department even if they are not listed on the website.
How does your department connect to your other interests and activities?
Some of the required classes for the PPUA concentration are in the Economics and Philosophy departments so thus I have been able to explore departments outside my major and engage in a true well rounded liberal arts education.
What's the most valuable thing you've learned at K?
Thinking outside the box (requirements) and learning to ask questions about said requirements. You´d be surprised how flexible and accommodating the school can be.
What has been your favorite class at K? Why?
My favorite class at K was an Art History class: Architecture Urbanism and Identity taught by Christine Hahn (who is on sabbatical this year). The class was a mixture of students from all majors and years and we got to talk about the architecture of Kalamazoo and K itself and how that influences our understanding and experience of the environment around us. It was fascinating to hear different viewpoints about K from a diverse sample of students which is uncommon in other classes where the majority of students are in the major and hold similar views. At the end of the class we went to the then-under construction Arcus Center and toured the facility while having pizza.
What is your SIP?
My SIP was interning last summer at an employment placement program catered towards the gypsies in the town of Caceres, Spain. The gypsies in Spain are underrepresented in the Spanish workforce and this program helps them gain critical employment skills and find meaningful employment. I am interested as to how this program works and whether some of those strategies can be used in the US with our own disenfranchised communities.
What are your career aspirations/next steps after K?
I want to go graduate school for my Master's in Urban Planning and Public Policy and eventually work for my hometown's urban planning department, but first take a few gap years and work for the government or a non-profit while living in either the Midwest or East Coast.
