Major mix-up
Aggies personalize education with career-specific options
Published: Tuesday, April 24, 2012
Updated: Wednesday, July 25, 2012 19:07
Students have taken to mixing up their major with special certificate distinctions offered within their colleges. By adding one or more of these certificate programs, students are differentiating their degree and putting more structure into their academic course plan.
A&M's 39,000 undergraduate students have a selection of more than 150 majors, 70 minors and a growing number of certificates.
"Sometimes I think students think they can only do their degree, but college is here for us. It is up to us to make the most of our time here," said senior business management major Meredith Harper. "There are so many cool degrees, minors, certificates, programs, etcetera that are hidden."
Advisers at A&M have increased promotion of their college's certificate programs. Mays Business School and the Departments of Political Science and Recreation Parks and Tourism Sciences offer a variety of options.
"A certificate demonstrates that a student has taken a concentrated set of courses and enrichment experiences in a specific area," said Janet Parish, clinical associate professor and assistant department head of the marketing department at Mays Business School. "This can help a student gain a more complete understanding of the industry or job type they are headed toward."
Harper designed her path of study to maximize her career preparation.
"My degree plan is an undergraduate degree in business management, a minor in horticulture, emphasis in floral design, and a certificate of entrepreneurial leadership," Harper said. "The reason I am doing this is to be able to have the chance to gain all of the skills in college I want/need for my future job."
Harper said she wants to own her own event planning company. To understand business operations she selected the business degree; to learn how to start a company, the certificate; and to better develop her design and execution skills she added the horticulture minor.
Parish said students should take the initiative to seek out interesting programs and courses and work with their advisors to fit them into their degree plan.
"The programs that are recommended depend upon a students' interests and career plans," Parish said. "[For example,] we recommend a certificate in international business for students that are interested in global marketing."
Junior business management major Brady Wilson decided to go on his study abroad program partially because it helped him fulfill requirements for a certificate.
"My adviser … realized I had a lot of electives that would credit as international electives and so she recommended that I pursue this certificate," Wilson said. "I'm not exactly sure if international business lies in my future, but having this certificate will open up my future options to work overseas by expanding my résumé."
Parish also said certificates are good preparatory tools for post-graduate studies.
"If an undergraduate student plans to apply to graduate school, a certificate might be helpful if it gives the student exposure to more coursework in their graduate area of interest," Parish said.
Senior political science major Mokhtar Awad said students should be sure that certificate programs apply to a career path.
"Getting a certificate in international relations makes my [degree] worth more, but you have to be doing something specific," Awad said. "That way, even your electives go toward something."
Awad said the certificate program helped him make sense of his degree track and major.
Some students, though, don't focus on just one major — their degree is a mix of multiple courses of study in a combination of concentrations and minors.
Vince Hernandez, senior academic advisor in the Department of Political Science, said he believes certificate and degree programs to be a personal choice and unique to each student as a way of making them more marketable in the job search.
"We are going to start presenting [certificate options] at the new student conferences," Hernandez said. "They aren't going to grow if we don't get the word out. If we can tell freshmen about this now, how can they not want to consider it?"

Taking medications that relieve pain, depression, allergies or incontinence may be causing another problem: faster memory loss, researchers at the University of Florida have found.
Subjects who took a category of medicine called anticholinergics -- drugs designed to treat a wide range of chronic conditions -- experienced more rapid memory loss than those who didn't, according to the study published in a recent issue of PLOS ONE.
Among the medications on the list were Benadryl, an over-the-counter antihistamine; Detrol, which treats overactive bladder; Elavil, a common antidepressant, and certain sleep aids, said Dr. Kenneth Heilman, professor of neurology at UF College of Medicine, who co-authored the study.
"We found that if you take these medications, you're going to have more rapid memory loss and cognitive decline," he said.
"Brain cells need to be able to communicate with each other for the brain to work correctly," said Heilman. "Brain cells give off a chemical called acetylcholine, which helps to excite their neighbor neurons. That excitement is necessary to form a memory."
Anticholinergic medications inhibit that ability.
"Sometimes you don't have a choice. You need to take these medicines," said Heilman, who recommends patients ask their doctors or pharmacists how much anticholinergic activity a drug has, or look online.
Then try to find less anticholinergic alternatives, he said.
"There are medications that treat overactive bladder, for instance, that don't get into the brain," said Heilman. "Those would be safer."
Anticholinergics are also commonly used in painkillers, antidepressants and antihistamines.
Although other studies have shown this connection, Heilman and his colleagues wanted to find out whether when a subject started taking the medications made a difference.
They looked at data collected over 10 years from 1,000 participants, who were divided into three groups: those who routinely used one or more anticholinergic medications, those who didn't report using any, and those who started to take an anticholinergic medication after the study began.
Participants who began using the medications during the study had a steeper cognitive decline than both the other groups. Those who had never used that category of medication had the slowest rate of decline, Heilman said.
"We thought the chronic users would be the most impaired, but they weren't — it was the people who began using the medications after enrolling in the study," said Heilman.
He suspects that's because younger brains are better at compensating, and may actually produce more acetylcholine if it's blocked. Older brains don't do that as well.
Although researchers couldn't say whether patients could recover their memory loss once they stopped taking the medication, stopping would prevent the more accelerated decline from continuing, Heilman said.
Meanwhile, he said, "the healthiest thing to do for your brain is to use it."

A Fantastic Game with a very haunting Storyline
snakes3425 wrote this review on .
The players are armed with some of the most realistic high tech weaponry, that looks as though it was taken right out of the latest issue of popular science. The arsonel is your standard FPS, including pistols, assault rifles and grenade launchers, but the addition of drones that can destroy the enemy from a far away distances is a very nice feature.
The game's storyline though is by far it's most haunting aspect, because it's backstory is drawn from today's actual headlines, including oil shortages, aveon flu, etc. It presents the year 2024, in relation to two other events, namely the two World Wars. The game shows the world devided into two armed camps, the Red Star Alliance consisting of Russia and China, and the Western Collition consisting of the US, EU, and other Western nations, which mirrors the world of 1914 and 1939, and tensions over the world's remaining oil supplies are at the point where a single spark is needed to ignight a Third World War.
This game in particular, in addition to being a fantastic single player/multiplayer game, is also a warning for real life that unless things dealing with energy change the future this game shows, may in fact become our actual future.

The bmi baby flight that most of us are on went up in price �60 in 4 hours. This is due to flight companies computers that are programmed to recognise when a flight is becoming popular and increase prices automatically. Unless the club could charter a plane then the chances of a really cheap flight may have gone. Unless people want to be a bit more creative about where they fly too and from. The lagooners have got in at the Boreal.

Zurn brass has too much zinc (30%) in it and is being dissolved by aggressive water and hence failing. Stay away from Zurn and use a fitting with less than 1% zinc also known as bronze.
I need to install some shut-off valves in four inbound copper pipes from the main feeder pipe to the bathroom, and to connect deck-mounted tub filler and valves to the inbound copper pipe. Because of the location and the tight space, I thought of using PEX - specifically Zurn PEX.
I've heard of an issue with PEX in general and an issue with Zurn PEX...
First, one fellow told me that I had to be a licensed plumber to install PEX in this area (East King County). Is this true?
Second, I've read about a class action suit against ZURN because it's brass fittings are failing. Is this true? Would ZURN's brass fittings be a problem in the this area?
Thanks for any feedback.

Thanks. I'd be happy to do that but I can't find a local vendor that sells PEX around here except the big box stores. And they sell Zurn fittings. Any suggestions for a local vendor in the Seattle area? Also, are there any bronze fittings available that are compatible with a Zurn crimping tool? (I have a Zurn crimping tool.)

Hire a licensed and insured plumber. His work comes with professional grade products, a real warranty, and peace of mind.
Not because I'm questioning your ability dan_public, but rather because you have concerns about the suitability of products for your application relative to the conditions in your area. The person who will know the most about that will be a professional.
A licensed plumber has experience and that, as MasterCard likes to say, is priceless.
If you have problems with copper fittings used with PEX, then you might also have a problem with copper tubing, since the same water flows through both of them. IF your copper is not deteriorating, then I would not be too worried about the Zurn fittings. The bronze fittings, like the plastic ones, reduce the internal diameter of the tubing at the connections more than I am comfortable with.
I have no problem with copper. I can use copper, but where it's located, PEX would be easier.
Regarding PEX, AFAIK the metal fittings only come in brass or bronze. And it's the brass fittings that are failing.
I've given up on PEX. I'm taking the PEX tools back and will use copper.
Thanks for the help.
Give up on Zurn PEX.

Debt Free story #1: My wife and I are debt free because we dared to get rid of our house in a short sale. We dared to get rid of a bad investment, our beautiful 4-bedroom house in the Sky Vista area of Stead. We bought our house during the peak with an adjustable rate mortgage (ARM). Every year like clockwork, the mortgage would increase by $300 per month. Meanwhile, we are working the same job, making the same salary. So, paying $300 more year after year just did not make sense. All I can say is it feels great to be debt free. My family is free to take vacations, see movies and help out another family member. My wife's migrane headache has miracously disappeared.
Debt Free Story #2: My wife and I bought a 4-bedroom house in Wingfield Springs. The kitchen has upgraded cabinets and granite counters and tile flooring. This is a stucco and tile roof house and it looks gorgeous. My four children visit the community pool and the Golden Eagle Park often. Three years after I bought it, two of my children started college at UNR. In 2012, all four of my children are in college at the same time. We are blessed with four smart children but having four children in college at the same time is a bankruptcy waiting to happen. As we cannot sell our children, we can sell our house. So, we sold our house and got 100% Debt Forgiveness. We are still able to live in the same neighborhood in a smaller rental. We are still able to help pay for tuition, books, health care, room and board for all children. Because we are debt free, we have money to spend on the things on our true priority – our children!
Debt Free Story #3: I bought my Kiley Ranch 3-bedroom when I was working two jobs. I had both these full-time jobs for over five years. My wife stays home to care for our three children. When I lost my better paying full-time job in 2011, I did not have enough money at the beginning of each month to pay the mortgage. Our home in Kiley Ranch in Sparks is our first home. My wife and I held a family meeting with our three children and told them that we have to give up something to keep living in our house. We decided to sell my wife's car to pay the next few mortgage payments. When the car money was gone and I still had not found a replacement full-time job, we decided that it was time to sell the house. Of course, we were sad to let the house go. But, we did not have much choice. It was time to get rid of a house that I could not afford. The house sold at less than half of what I owe to the bank. I am debt free today and I have no credit card debts. My wife and I drive one car. My children all work around the neighborhood and they are learning to save money for cars that they want to buy. I have learned my lesson that I should not have over-extended myself working two jobs just to make the mortgage payment. I hope I am setting a good example for my children so they can live a life that is debt free.
It is possible for all of us to be debt free. First, dare to get rid of the bad investments that are sucking the life out of you; making you sick, giving you headaches, making you lose sleep. You know what I am talking about. Dare to get rid of the bad investments! Start fresh! A debt free life is waiting for you at the end of the rainbow!

3.8 Furniture in Student Rooms, Suites & Apartments
Student room, suite and apartment furniture cannot be removed from or switched between student rooms/suites/apartments. Facilities Management (maintenance) staff will remove any extra furniture used in over-assigned rooms.
Beds are to remain intact and not taken apart. If a student does disassemble their bed, they are financially responsible for all bed parts, for storing the bed parts in their room/suite/apartment and for the cost of reassembling the bed by Facilities Management staff.
Bed Adjustments
Beds in most residences can be bunked, unbunked, raised or lowered. Rooms that have one set of tall bed ends and one set of short ends may request that their beds be bunked. Work orders to bunk beds will only be completed in the above described rooms. For bed adjustment requests to raise or lower a bed, submit a work order. Facilities Maintenance staff will call you for an appointment to check if your current bed can be adjusted. Beds at Cascadia House and Terra House are one bed/desk unit and cannot be adjusted.
Raising beds off the floor may be unsafe and/or void the manufacture's warranty. Students need to use supports specifically manufactured for that purpose. Your Coordinator needs to inspect and approve any bed that is raised off the floor.
Lofts are not permitted in student rooms/suites/apartments.
Tape cannot be applied to furniture or carpet due to the sticky residue that is left behind.

Comprehensive condom programming integrates various activities including male and female condom promotion, communication for behaviour change, market research, segmentation of messages, optimized use of entry points (in both reproductive health clinics and HIV prevention venues), advocacy and coordinated management of supplies. The goal of condom programming is to reduce the number of unprotected sex acts, which will, in turn, reduce the incidence of unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections.
Strategic condom programming recognizes the complementarity between male and female condoms. It takes advantage of a variety of entry points -- not just clinics, but also, for example, barber shops, pharmacies and youth centres. It requires the collaboration of the private and public sector. And it demands a consistent and affordable supply.
Comprehensive condom programming is a key institutional priority for UNFPA, because condoms, both male and female, are recognized as the only currently available and effective way to prevent HIV – and other sexually transmitted infections – among sexually active people. Moreover, within UNAIDS, UNFPA is the lead agency for all aspects of condom programming.
Creating demand for condoms by convincing people at risk of sexually transmitted infections to use them routinely is an important part of the equation for preventing the spread of HIV and other sexually transmitted infections. But in many places, people who want to use condoms are unable to obtain them.
An estimated 13 billion condoms per year are needed to help halt the spread of HIV and other sexually transmitted infections, according to UNAIDS. The reality falls short. In 2004, some 2.1 billion condoms were provided by bilateral donors, UNFPA and social marketing organizations. In that year, sub-Saharan Africa, the region with greatest HIV prevalence and the largest share of donor support, received about 10 condoms per man of reproductive age (15-59). Brazil, China and India are self-sufficient in condoms. But for many other developing countries, the gap between condom needs and donor support means paying for imported condoms with funds needed for food, medicine and other necessities.
Condoms have helped to reduce HIV infection where AIDS has already taken hold and curtailed the broader spread of sexually transmitted infections. They have also encouraged safer sexual behaviour more generally.
Thailand's efforts to de-stigmatize condoms and its targeted condom promotion for sex workers and their clients dramatically reduced HIV infections in these populations and helped reduce the spread of the epidemic to the general population. A similar policy in Cambodia has helped stabilize national prevalence, while substantially decreasing prevalence was observed among sex workers. In addition, Brazil's early and vigorous condom promotion among the general population and vulnerable groups successfully contributed to sustained control of the HIV epidemic. Increased condom use is believed to be a contributing factor in the decline in HIV prevalence reported in Zimbabwe between 2003 and 2005.
Physiologically, men are more likely to transmit HIV to women than vice-versa. Although condoms can provide effective protection against HIV infection, and female condoms are agreed to increase women's empowerment, several issues impact upon the use of both male and female condoms. Cost, availability and perceptions of risk are important factors. Power relations between men and women, including the relative social and economic status of partners, influence the extent to which condom use can be successfully negotiated.
Accepted notions of masculinity and femininity also come into play. For instance, in many cultural settings, young women are supposed to be sexually innocent and may therefore be reluctant to carry or suggest using condoms. Since condoms are also associated in many contexts with illicit or extra-marital sex, married women are often powerless to request their partner to wear a condom despite suspecting that he may be infected with HIV, for fear of reprisal at the implied accusation of being unfaithful.
UNFPA and WHO have produced a publication that addresses commonly held condom myths, misperceptions, fears and negative attitudes that act as barriers to correct and consistent condom use around the world. Myths and misperceptions were collected from regional and country programme managers and health care providers and the most commonly occurring myths and misperceptions are addressed in this publication.
Condoms must be procured according to the quality assurance procedures established by WHO, UNFPA and UNAIDS. Condoms are manufactured utilizing the highest international standards and then stored in a dry environment away from direct heat sources to ensure safety and efficacy.
Manufacturing standards have also been established by the International Organization for Standardization, the Comité Européen de Normalisation, and the American Society for Testing and Materials. These standards are mainly concerned with the safety and integrity of the condoms and establish minimum acceptable quality levels.
WHO, UNFPA, and UNAIDS work with manufacturers, testing laboratories, researchers, donors, international agencies and program managers to establish an internationally accepted specification, quality assurance and procurement procedure for male latex condoms. In accordance with these quality assurance procedures, all donor procured condoms are quality controlled and tested for safety and efficacy during the manufacturing process and before they enter a country's distribution network. Their ultimate effectiveness depends on user behaviour in opening the package, applying the condom, sexual activity, lubrication, and number of times an individual condom is used.
Low cost is also essential for government distribution and social marketing of condoms. As the largest public-sector procurer of condoms in the world, UNFPA is able to negotiate the lowest prices possible. Developing countries are the suppliers for virtually all of the male condoms procured by UNFPA.

The Rainiers pushed across a run in the first, then added two more in each of the next two frames to jump out to a 5-0 lead. In the fifth, though, Reno scored five times with two outs in the inning, tying the score at 5-5. Two innings later, Bell deposited a Brian Moran offering over the wall in right to put the Aces ahead for good.
Aces starter Charles Brewer (10-7) earned the win, scattering five runs — four earned — on six hits with five strikeouts. After his exit, Mike DeMark worked a scoreless seventh, Jensen Lewis recorded two outs in the eighth, and Jonathan Albaladejo collected a four-out save.
The loss fell to Moran (2-3), who surrendered Bell's solo homer out of the bullpen.
At the plate for Reno, Mike Jacobs singled and drove in two, while Konrad Schmidt added three hits. Reno was 3-for-4 with runners in scoring position.
The series comes a close on tonight at Cheney Stadium. Left-hander Zach Kroenke (6-3, 5.66 ERA) toes the slab for Reno, and RHP DJ Mitchell (0-2, 3.36 ERA) gets the nod for Tacoma. First pitch is set for 7:05 p.m. PT, and the action can be listened to live on Fox Sports 630 AM or by visiting RenoAces.com.
The Aces return home on Wednesday to kick off a five-game set against the Fresno Grizzlies, Triple-A Affiliate of the San Francisco Giants. Tickets are on sale now at RenoAces.com, by calling (775) 334-7000 or by visiting the Aces Ballpark Ticket Office.

Global commitments to reduce poverty and improve lives cannot be reached unless the international community makes urgent progress towards controlling the arms trade, according to a new Oxfam report.
As world leaders meet in New York at a special Summit on poverty, aid agency Oxfam slammed the lack of urgency by the international community in tackling the ongoing food crisis now affecting close to one billion people.
There are plenty of ways to get involved.
Tell your government that you want them to meet their commitments to the MDGs, in your name.
Watch as Scarlett Johansson, will.i.am, Annie Lennox, and some more names you might recognize, explain how we are the generation that can bring an end to extreme poverty.
Ahead of a crucial meeting in New York next week to assess the state of the world's fight against global poverty, international agency Oxfam called on world leaders to redouble their efforts to fight the impact of rising food and fuel prices.
The credibility of G8 finance ministers will be tested this weekend as the world waits for more urgent and stronger action to tackle global poverty in the face of climate change and rising food prices.

Kristen Stewart has recently started to get very brave with her style! At the Cannes premiere of Robert Pattinson's movie "Cosmopolis," she stepped out in a beautiful red gown with a plunging neckline. The plunge dress has been very popular amongst celebrities. Here is a look at four other stars who have been seen in plunge dresses this year.
Lea Michele
We got to see a little more of Lea Michele than we're used to after her appearance on "The Late Show With David Letterman." Her dress from Amen had a very open plunge, allowing her to really show off her assets. The "Glee" star still managed to make the dress look demure somehow. Perhaps it's those innocent eyes and her dazzling smile!
Rihanna is not one to shy away from flaunting her figure. At the 2012 Brit Awards, she wore a shimmering dress which was cut almost down to her bellybutton! Lucky for Rhi-Rhi, she wasn't in too much danger of having a wardrobe malfunction because she was well strapped in!
Charlize Theron
Kristen Stewart's "Snow White and the Huntsman" co-star looked stunning at this year's Golden Globes. Not only did she rock a plunge gown, she also flashed her legs in the thigh-high split dress. Theron's plunge was a little more daring than some of the others we've seen this year, but luckily, she managed to keep her own golden globes inside the dress!
Jennifer Lawrence
At a screening of "The Hunger Games" in March, Jennifer Lawrence was smokin' hot in a green Calvin Klein dress. She certainly wasn't afraid of showing off some cleavage, and she managed to do it in a way that made her look cute. There is always a risk of looking a little trashy with plunge dresses, but Jennifer didn't have that problem at all.

Having lived in the frozen northland I can assure you that not only will your toiletries freeze in the winter, but they'll bake in the summer. Exterior walls in Minnesota need insulation.
If the Mrs insists, I'd recommend insulating and sheetrocking the wall and then putting up a second wall to accomodate the inset cabinet as already recommended. You don't have to do the whole bathroom that way, just an alcove for the sink/cabinet area. While you're at it you could put in inset shelving and fancy recessed lighting in the false wall beside or above the inset cabinet
It's a lot of extra work but if the Mrs isn't happy ................. I'm glad you're the one who'll have to put up with her.

P R Y,…. by AFVet
AFVet is an Air Force Vietnam Veteran
A small word but a powerful one when it comes to your privacy.
What gives the federal government the right to impose itself upon you if you have done no wrong ?
Many people take the opinion that they haven't broken any law.
Many say that they have committed no crimes.
With today's government,…can you be sure ?
My response to those comments are,…by who's rules?
Children that are suspended from school for forming a gun with their hand.
Or for eating a pop tart into the shape of a gun.
All the while, teachers, men and women, are engaging in sex with the students that they are paid to educate by the parents that have no choice but to put their children in their care.
All of this is happening amidst the desecration of the Christian voice striving to speak out against it.
The gay community, the abomination, continues to grab the headlines on our news channels.
The LGBT has infested our Military, and yet we allow it to proceed.
America, what have we become ?
Are you willing to accept this ?
Aren't you willing to take a stand and say NO MORE !
Take heed my friends, for the task that we must undergo is at hand.
Go out there and VOTE for OUR Country, and Her survival in the choppy seas that She is immersed in.
Right now, the rudder is in the wrong hands.
We need to wrench those hands off the rudder and put this ship back on course.
Back on the course that the Constitution set.

Hive Away™ Testimonials
Treatment to naturally help reduce itchy red skin and bumps related to hives and poison ivy.
"My wife had a severe case of…hives starting back in April. They got so bad that she was literally burning up.

After hours of research, I found Native Remedies and Hive Away. Let me tell you, this stuff really and truly works! She can flare up with hives, mix her 10-15 drops of Hive Away with water and, within minutes, they have all but gone! If you are suffering from this, do yourself a favor and try Hive Away!"- Terry F., TX, USA

Liquidated damage clauses, which establish the amount of damages to be paid in the event of a breach or cancellation of a contract, have become a standard part of hotel agreements. They can benefit both sides of a contract, but they can also be abused. Meeting executives need to negotiate these clauses carefully to minimize their potential negative impact.
A liquidated damage clause is frequently mistaken for a "penalty" provision, but they are different. First, penalties for cancellation of a contract are barred by law. Second, liquidated damage clauses are designed to reimburse, or "make whole," the nonbreaching party for any loss--not to penalize the breaching party.
If a provision sets damages for breach of a contract so large as to be characterized as a penalty, it will be disregarded by the courts. The reasonableness of a contractually established amount of damages may not always be obvious, however, since in most cases liquidated damage clauses are present because the anticipated damages from a breach of contract are difficult to prove.
The Double-Dip Deal Under the concepts of traditional contract law, the nonbreaching party must take reasonable actions to ensure that the damages caused by the breach are minimized. In the hotel contract scenario, for example, the hotel has a duty to attempt to resell canceled rooms and must make a good-faith effort to do so.
If the hotel contract contains a liquidated damage clause, the hotel recovers liquidated damages under the contract and can resell the rooms that were previously reserved for the breaching party. In essence, the liquidated damage clause replaces the common law duty to mitigate and may prove a useful tool to the parties by establishing a clear calculation of damages while avoiding the often lengthy litigation involved in proving it.
However, to the party paying the liquidated damages it may seem as if the hotel is enriched by the cancellation. The hotel gets the liquidated damages and, at the same time, still has the ability to resell the canceled rooms.
In essence, some think that liquidated damage clauses allow hotels to "double dip" by reselling the rooms they are being compensated for under the liquidated damage clause. Although some liquidated damage clauses may have that effect, a well- structured clause can work to the benefit of both parties.
One solution to the double-dipping issue is to have a liquidated damage provision that reflects adjustments to be made for mitigation, and that requires the hotel to mitigate if the contract is canceled. Here is an example of such a provision:
Hotel shall undertake all reasonable efforts to resell canceled rooms, and will credit those revenues against the liquidated damages in an amount not to exceed the full amount of such damages. Liquidated damages, if any, shall be due and payable X days after [original meeting date] provided the Hotel provides proof of its efforts to mitigate damages and proof that rooms being held for Group's attendees were unsold.
Other Safeguards It is often difficult to prove that any rooms sold after the cancellation were rooms that had been contracted for by the parties. One solution is to include within the liquidated damage clause an average occupancy rate for the hotel, which can be used in determining if there was any mitigation after cancellation. The actual occupancy rate measured against the contractually determined occupancy rate could then be used as the formula for determining any offset against the liquidated damages.
Another potential issue is that liquidated damage provisions often apply only to the situation in which a group cancels its meeting. But what if the hotel cancels the group's reservations? It has been known to happen. And the difficulty in assessing the canceled group's costs probably is even greater than calculating the hotel's loss from cancellation.
Liquidated damage clauses can be the solution to that problem. If they are drafted to apply to any breach or cancellation, then both parties will have a clear understanding of their obligations, and a group, should its reservations be canceled, will know exactly what it is entitled to from the hotel.
By establishing a duty to mitigate (and setting an average occupancy rate as a basis for determining damages) and by making liquidated damage clauses apply to all breaches and cancellations, liquidated damage clauses can provide certainty and fairness for both parties.*

Available Projects
I have never done anything that was laborous, but since watching and living on DIY we are doing a kitchen makeover. The cabinets themsleves are 20 grand just for the wood.We are using cherry wood with a chestnut finish and putting in a beautiful quartz countertop then we are getting all new appliances the one i love is a panneled refidgerator. I have taken off all the tile that was in the kitchen bathroom that we are removing and It was so easy to do since I have watched all the shows on DIY. then i removed all the tile flooring which I lov doing and also saw on diy. now i am in the mioddle of taking down all the cabinets. I also removed the tin ceiling and saved it due to projects that i saw on tv that i can reuse it to make some art projects from it I am going to make 2 coat racks with it wrapped around a piece of wood and putting on hangers and also will be using it for a garden box wrap which i also saw on diy. If u would ever get to know my and my life u would never have thought how much I enjoy doing this and would love to do this for a living. I want to learn so much and enjoy every bit that i have seen on tv and now get to do it. Our kitchen was showcased on a facebook site for society people. Like i said the wood, hood range and quartz came out to 20grand but it is all worth it. I do need to figure out how to remove the countertops and how to post pics to here thank you DIY!!!!
andrew nemeth
Hi padrew,
There is much satisfaction to be gained by doing your our DIY Projects so long as you do them properly.
Your desire to post pictures of your project can be done by using an online source to store your pictures. Free Online storage of pictures can be done at several sites such as Photobucket and Google Picasa.
If you wish to post pictures here on the DIY Boards, all pictures need to be no more than 100Kb in size and thus will likely need to be re-sized. A free program that does this is PictureGirdle and there are 2 versions to consider depending on your Operating System. PictureGirdle 2.0 works with Windows XP and Vista. PictureGirdle 188.8.131.52 works with Windows 7 and 8. Both with require Windows Updates of Net Framework to work properly. This program always creates and exact image of the Original Photo which is less than 100Kb while leaving the Original in tact.
Some thoughts to consider.
Good Luck!
Hello, padrew. i am new here too and look farword to your pics

Great Feelings – Wonderful dinner and very good service. Everyone was friendly and all the courses were delicious.
charmed this yankee – well worth the cab ride from our canal street hotel. all positive reviews on this site for a reason. able to get an interior table at 7:30 on a saturday with little notice. service was first class, and the food wasn't far behind. xlnt wine list too. wasn't impressed with the pianobar, personally.
The mood and the food to express yourself. – The Scene
Feelings Cafe maintains the homey charm of its surroundings--the main house and slave quarters of the former D'Aunoy Plantation. A large dining area just inside the restaurant harbors a warm feel, thanks to candlelit tables covered in white and low music. Exposed brick, antique mirrors and paneling polish the effect. Across the hall, the narrow and colorful bar opens onto the tree-shaded courtyard.
The Food
Appetizers like the flavorful but smooth pate a la maison or the meaty crab cakes aren't large, but they're also not expensive and won't spoil your appetite. Good news, given you don't want to miss a bite of the red snapper Moutarde--sauteed and topped with hollandaise, Dijon mustard and roasted almonds--or the blue cheese-stuffed filet. Veal, shrimp, duck and chicken dishes prepared in varying ways round out the entrees. Find room for the mocha chocolate cheesecake.
BEST KEPT SECRET IN NEW ORLEANS! – I had never heard of this place until I read the reviews on citysearch.com. Everyone loved it so we gave it a try. This place as FANTASTIC. You MUST give it a try. Call ahead for reservations on the patio. The best deal on the menu is converting an entre into a four or five course meal for a very reasonable price. Try the egglplant seafood dish. It was OUTSTANDING. Friendly wait staff and a pleasant dining experience. In my book, this place nudge out NOLA for taste. Don't miss it!
Excellent & Fun! – A friend introduced me to Feeling Cafe a few months back, and its become one of my favorite places in the city to eat! The Sunday brunch is the best and the staff are excellent!
just plain down to earth and execllent – i can not say enough of this hide a way .
food, service, and decor, this is the true New Orleans tradition.
Serenade – The most romantic spot in town for fine dining. Try and get a spot on the patio or the balcony overlooking the courtyard. The bleu cheese fillet is my favorite. Musicians serenade as you dine. The setting is in the slave quaters of an old plantation.
love food – The experience was great. the ambiance and food was great. The bar was excellent
Epitome of New Orleans Style – The courtyard and balcony dining next to the piano bar make Feelings Cafe a wonderfully romantic place to enjoy dinner and drinks.

Ceremony honors public safety workers
Four from Hesperia sheriff's station, fire department recognized
Four individuals were surprised, humbled and honored by the recognition they received at Hesperia's Public Safety Recognition Awards luncheon, while those who chose them for the acclaim expressed certainty that they'd made the right decision.
The third annual event, hosted by the Hesperia Chamber of Commerce at the Courtyard by Marriott on Nov. 19, was created to recognize employees and volunteers with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Hesperia station and San Bernardino County Fire Department's Hesperia posts who work to make the community a safer place to live.
"We should always be looking for the good in people and when we see it, we should honor it," said Mayor Russ Blewett, who helped present the awards along with other community leaders.
Jeromy Snyder, a deputy for six years, was awarded Officer of the Year because of his "think out of the box, teamwork and tenacity," the event program stated. Snyder was recognized as a "leading deputy in the area of tagging and gang activities," with Chief Nils Bentsen pointing out that his work in tracking gangs has helped decrease the tagging problem in Hesperia.
"I don't think I work too much harder than the other guys at the station," Snyder said, expressing his surprise at the recognition. He said he enjoys being a deputy because every day is "always a challenge."
Curtis Malloy, a firefighter paramedic for eight years, was awarded Firefighter of the Year for his help as "crew boss" in developing the county Fire Department's hand crew, spending many off-duty hours working with the group that helps battle wild land fires.
Malloy's career began in 1995 in Apple Valley. During the last 17 years, he's worked for the Bureau of Land Management, Del Rosa Hot Shots and the Apple Valley Fire Protection District.
When hired by the county Fire Department to work at Hesperia Station #302 in 2010, Hesperia North Desert Division Chief Britt Sipe said Malloy brought that "specialty" to the department and applied those skills to the new hand crew program.
Hesperia Battalion Chief Chris Norton, Malloy's uncle, called him a "beast," explaining that Malloy is "tough" and his work in wild land firefighting is "a game only certain few want to play."
"Drive and passion is what keeps me fighting fires and pushing my crew," Malloy said.
Nicholas "Nick" Sewell, 19, captain of the sheriff's Hesperia Explorer Post, was awarded Volunteer of the Year because of his "devotion to law enforcement" and his time spent helping the community, according to an event program. As captain, his duties include organizing meetings, discipline within the unit, coordinating training and community projects.
"Nick excelled in all areas of leadership," said Deputy Lisa Guerra, Hesperia Explorer Post advisor. She said he was available and willing to tackle or delegate any task that needed to be accomplished in preparation for the group's annual haunted house fundraiser.
Sewell, who is pursuing law enforcement because he likes helping people, said he was "very honored" to be included alongside his fellow honorees.
"Couldn't be prouder," said Sewell's mother, Brenda. She said she watched his interest in law enforcement at age 4 grow to include participation in the Explorer Program along with an application to be a deputy in Riverside, which has put him on "the path to his passion" — a great reward for her as a parent.
Sue Rose, spokeswoman for the sheriff's Hesperia station, was awarded Employee of the Year for her "multi-tasking and organizing efforts" of duties such as: informing citizens with press releases, crime free housing meetings, citizen ride-alongs and events like Hesperia Days Parade, Hesperia Safety Fair and National Night Out.
"I'm humbled," Rose said. "I can think of many others that are far more deserving than I … [that] don't always get the recognition they deserve. On their behalf, I'll accept it."
Rose said one of her main goals in her position is to "bridge the gap that sometimes exists between citizens and law enforcement," working to point out the good things other people in her station and community are doing.
"She goes above and beyond in everything she does," Bentsen said. "[It was time] to point to her."
With so much of their job spent "on the other side" with people who don't appreciate them, Bentsen views the luncheon as an opportunity for deputies to be awarded for their work and see citizens who are thankful for their services.

Cutting out coal
At ABI Phoenix, a feasibility study of a proposed heat recovery system to reduce the load on the coal fired boiler and ideally to completely remove it from service was undertaken. The idea was to recover heat from the ammonia compressors and install an additional heat exchanger on the sugar syrup plant to pre-heat the incoming water with the exiting hot water and simultaneously reduce the amount of cooling required.
From the heat balances it was shown that the recovered heat is not sufficient for all the requirements and an additional make-up supply was required. The proposed solution was to install a heat pump on the roof of the plant and utilise the heat in the exhaust air from the screw compressor to improve its efficiency.
Following this project, the Carbon foot print of the plant has been reduced dramatically; no more coal dust and lower power consumption than before. Coal consumption has been reduced from +- 35 tons per month to zero and power from +- 28 kW to +- 15 kW 24 hour average.
Our priorities: Energy & Carbon
See how we're working to reduce our energy and carbon footprint
Using biogas at Alrode Brewery
At its Alrode brewery in Gauteng, SAB has developed a biogas recovery plant to reduce its traditional dependence on coal.
The brewery's effluent is treated using an anaerobic digestion process, which generates methane gas. The brewery currently produces five million litres of effluent a day and 90% of the organic load is turned into biogas with a methane content of 85%.
This biogas is used as fuel in a new, dedicated boiler where it's burnt to boil water and produce steam for the brewing process. This project has provided a further demonstration to the business that using biogas is feasible and could be adopted across other parts of the group.
Our priorities: Energy & Carbon
See how we're working to reduce our energy and carbon footprint
Lightening the PET load
SAB Ltd uses over 30,000 tons of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) to produce approximately 800 million bottles spread across Sparkling Soft Drinks (SSD's),Flavoured Waters, Sports Drinks and Iced Tea. PET resin is made from Ethylene Glycol and Terephthalic Acid. Although "green" Glycol can be made out of a more expensive biomass e.g. sugar cane and/or its begasse waste-product, it is mostly sourced from Oil. Terephthalic Acid is made out of Paraxylene, an oil-refinery product. Therefore reducing the usage of material reduces our carbon footprint both on raw materials and on the disposal of used bottles.
During 2009 and 2010, savings were made by 1-2g on PET bottles of three different sizes. This was achieved through adapting the moulds for the bottles whilst still ensuring they would continue to retain gas and be easily stacked. Through saving 1-2g on each bottle, it is estimated that 1400 tonnes of PET are saved per year.
To continue this saving, SAB Ltd now have plans for further PET lightweighting which will aim to reduce PET usage by a further 10%, saving more than 3000 tonnes of PET a year.
Our priorities: Packaging
Taking training out to taverns
In South Africa, SAB Ltd in partnership with an NGO partner (Men for Development in South Africa (MEDSA)) have continued to run a life skills programme for men – focusing on HIV/Aids, responsible consumption of alcohol and gender-based violence.
This programme is based in local taverns and offers men a six week, life-skills course. It provides context-specific and culturally-relevant information and suggestions for alternative, positive behavioural patterns to the tavern patrons. In addition, participants are encouraged to have themselves and their spouses tested for HIV.
The programme has been particularly successful and it is envisaged that this will be scaled up significantly in the next financial year.
Our priorities: HIV/Aids
Negotiating with employees at ABI
During 2009 workers at ABI, the soft drinks division of SAB, opted to take strike action to support demands for better wages and working conditions. The management of the business was quick to act to minimise the impact of the strike on operations and to continue talking with the Food and Allied Workers' Union (FAWU) to work towards a mutually beneficial agreement.
At the majority of sites, the strike was conducted in a professional and congenial manner. Unfortunately, some union members at a small number of sites engaged in the illegal and sometimes violent intimidation of non-striking employees. In response, ABI increased its security to ensure that all employees were safe and free to enjoy their right to work and to support their families.
Despite these incidents, talks continued. After lengthy negotiations, ABI and FAWU reached an agreement that will see wages and benefits increase by a total of 8.3% – comparing favourably with packages offered by other companies in the industry. All permanent employees were welcomed back to ABI and an independent third party was brought in to chair all disciplinary enquiries relating to the strike.

West Virginia Wesleyan College is launching a major fundraising effort to renovate Cebe Ross Field into a multi-purpose facility to accommodate football, women's lacrosse, men's and women's track and field and intramurals and recreational programming.
Once the funding goals have been met, the new facility will include artificial turf, an eight-lane Olympic-sized track, lighting, new seating, concessions and public restrooms , a multi-purpose media center and coaches box, weight room and pavilion for receptions. The estimated cost to complete renovations is $2
"Wesleyan has a tremendous reputation for academic and athletic excellence," said Dr. Pamela Balch, Wesleyan President. "We are also known for having one of the most beautiful campuses in the region. For several decades, Ross Field has served as the venue for Wesleyan football and is in need of a major facelift. The renovation of the facility is a major component of the College's Facilities Master Plan."
To date, Wesleyan has received $330,500 in gifts and pledges. Wesleyan will begin the first phase of construction as soon as funds are received to cover costs for the project.
For more information, contact the Wesleyan Advancement Office at 304-473-8600.
