I've been running Mint 13, everything works except that every so often the trackpoint gets sluggish. I can't figure out why. It has happened on other distros as well. Any ideas?

Can anybody help me get bluetooth working with Mandriva 2010 Spring? I'd also like to be able to scroll with the middle trackpoint button.
running debian squeeze 64bit with a 2.6.32-trunk-amd64 kernel
every thing worked out of the box with the exception of the original wifi card (intel 802.11 bgn - rtl8192/r8192S), it was a POS and only sort of worked after compiling the driver, replaced it with an Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 5100 AGN (bought it on ebay for @ $40). it started working as soon as i installed it and rebooted, works 1000 times better then the original card.
following stuff worked out of the box:
web cam - yes
trackpoint - yes
usb ports - yes
ethernet - yes
wifi - see above
pcexpress card slot - yes
sd card reader - yes
bluetooth - yes
fn keys - yes
sound - yes
mute key - yes
following stuff worked with minor tweaking:
volume up
volume down
following not tested
battery life (9 cell) between 6 and 8 hours.
excellent machine for debian, i purchased it new on ebay with no os (no windows coa), i have no intention of ever installing windows.
Have since upgraded to the current testing (wheezy) and 2.6.38 kernel, no hicups, all still working well.
Hi Joshua,
Given you've already worked this out, it would be good if you could post how you did this, or give some links.
I just bought one and it's GREAT. I use Ubuntu Jaunty on it.
I had a bit of trouble getting the sound to work, but with a simple hack it works fine - you'll have to Google a bit.
To make OpenGL work (3d acceleration), you'll have to install a couple of packages (one was a python opengl interface, I don't remember the other. Try using the 3d interface of the Gnome Chess game, it will tell you.)
Battery life seems to be a lot longer than it tells me, YMMV.
Otherwise everything seems to be great.

NAMI StigmaBuster Alert Update: February 9, 2007
We've won!
Shortly after the special StigmaBuster Alert was sent to NAMI advocates today, General Motors (GM) announced a decision to pull and modify its Super Bowl "suicide" television commercial. The portrayal of a robot's suicide, and any implication of suicide, will be removed.
StigmaBusters who responded to the earlier alert by checking the GM Web site quickly reported that it had been dropped.
"GM's decision is a victory for all of the mental health and suicide prevention community," said NAMI executive director Michael J. Fitzpatrick. "We've made the point that mental illness and suicide are to be taken seriously and that we will not be marginalized."
"We are especially grateful to the American Federation on Suicide Prevention (AFSP) and Suicide Prevention Action Network (SPAN), who with NAMI, have led protests of the advertisement over the last week."
"GM is a giant corporation. We have educated them. It could not have happened without the support of our grassroots."
Thank you for all your efforts, all the time!

Friday, April 25, 2014
By Steve Mistler email@example.com
State House Bureau
A federal judge determined Thursday that the association representing Maine cities and towns was within its rights to campaign against five referendum efforts that would have reduced municipal revenues.
In this 2009 file photo, Christopher Lockwood, executive director of the Maine Municipal Association, speaks in Portland at a rally opposing Question 2, which would cut the automobile excise tax. A U.S. District Court determined Thursday, Feb. 14, 2013 that the MMA was within its rights to campaign against five separate voter-referendum efforts that would have reduced town revenues. The lawsuit was filed by the Maine Heritage Policy Center – a conservative political group.
Jack Milton / Staff Photographer
Chief U.S. District Judge John A. Woodcock Jr. said in a 56-page ruling that the Maine Municipal Association was exercising "government speech" when it participated in the campaigns in years from 2004 to 2009.
The association was sued by the Maine Heritage Policy Center, a conservative advocacy group that promoted the ballot initiatives, including two so-called Taxpayer Bill of Rights proposals and an effort to change the way cities and towns collect motor vehicle excise taxes.
The Maine Municipal Association, a quasi-governmental agency representing 486 cities and towns, opposed the initiatives. That prompted the Maine Heritage Policy Center to file a lawsuit in 2010 claiming the association had violated the group's First Amendment rights.
The court struck down each complaint.
"The Court holds that the government speech doctrine applies to MMA's advocacy activities," Woodcock ruled. "This is another way of saying that MMA has not violated the Plaintiffs' rights under the Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment of the United States Constitution ..."
The Maine Heritage Policy Center recently promoted its case against the municipal association, saying the group had engaged in "scandalous activities."
The Maine Wire, the center's news site, has a section dubbed the "MMA files." The recent promotion is timed with Gov. Paul LePage's proposal to suspend municipal aid for a two years, a proposal the municipal association vehemently opposes.
The policy center is closely aligned with LePage; Tarren Bragdon, its former CEO, led the governor's transition team in 2011 and the group later claimed to have authored LePage's first two-year budget proposal.
Christopher G. Lockwood, executive director of the Maine Municipal Association, praised the ruling.
"For the past two years, we have endured as Heritage Policy Center used words like 'scandalous' and 'illegal' in regard to our information and advocacy, legitimate activities that we have been engaged with in Maine since 1936," Lockwood said in a prepared statement. "We are grateful that Judge Woodcock today put all the claims of free speech violations firmly to rest."

Vessel Registration
Bill of Sale for Boat
A Bill of Sale (BOS) for a boat must have adequate information to positively link the BOS to the boat, similar to the example WRD BOS posted HERE.
Owners of Georgia registered boats must notify the Department, in writing, of sale or transfer, theft or recovery, or destruction or abandonment of a boat within 15 days. Additional information.
The following should be on the BOS.
However, WRD recognizes that not all BOS will be this complete. It is a judgment call whether WRD believes the BOS received is adequate to link the vessel to the BOS in a reasonably sufficient manner. Whether a BOS is adequate may also depend on other documents submitted such as an out of state title, a manufacturer's statement of origin, or other information that supports the submitted BOS by positively identifying and linking data or other information to the boat in question.
A BOS does not have to be witnessed OR notarized, although this is acceptable.
For Georgia registered boats, the seller on the BOS must be the Owner of Record in the Georgia registration system. If the listed seller is not the Owner of Record, the bill of sale is not adequate. A bill of sale where the seller is not the Owner of Record is acceptable if the customer has an unbroken line of additional BOS or other sale documents back to the Owner of Record.
If it is determined that a BOS is not available at all or is not adequate, the customer will be required to obtain an adequate BOS. If a BOS cannot be obtained, a second less optimal option is for the customer to have a Vessel Inspection. WRD requires that customers bring their boat to a specific location if a Vessel Inspection is necessary. Obtaining an adequate BOS is the preferred option for the customer's convenience and cost, and also to reduce state costs.

The U.S. manufacturing sector grew last month at its fastest pace in more than two years, bolstering expectations for faster overall U.S. growth in the second half of the year, an industry report showed on Tuesday. A separate reading showed that U.S. construction spending rose in July.
The Institute for Supply Management (ISM) said its index of national factory activity rose to 55.7 in August from 55.4 the prior month, comfortably beating expectations for 54. It was the highest reading since June 2011.
A reading above 50 indicates expansion in the sector.
New orders also marked their best level in more than two years, with that sub-index jumping to 63.2 from 58.3. Employment, however, slipped to 53.3 from 54.4.
The government will release its August employment report on Friday. Economists forecast employers added 180,000 new jobs last month after hiring 162,000 workers in July.
Manufacturing has been hurt this year by cuts in government spending and weaker global demand, causing the sector to shrink in May. But sizable increases in activity in July and August are adding to economists' views that U.S. goods-producing companies are finding their footing as the year wears on.
Data last week showed the economy grew at a quicker-than-expected pace in the second quarter and should continue to gain momentum.
Construction spending rises
U.S. construction spending rose in July as more outlays to build homes and businesses countered a decline in the government sector.
Construction spending climbed 0.6 percent to an annual rate of $901 billion, the Commerce Department said on Tuesday. The growth rate was above the median forecast in a Reuters poll of analysts.
The biggest gain in spending came from the business sector as firms increased outlays on projects for offices, commercial buildings and factories.
Private spending on home construction projects also advanced, a sign builders were still betting on a housing market recovery despite a sharp increase in mortgage rates since May.
Borrowing costs have been on the rise due to expectations the U.S. Federal Reserve will reduce its bond-buying stimulus program.
Holding back the construction industry in July, however, was a drop in spending by state and local governments. Federal construction spending, a small fraction of total public sector construction outlays, increased during the month.
Overall, public sector spending fell 0.4 percent. State and local governments are feeling the pinch this year from federal budget cuts, which affect the level of transfers to local administrations.

Food For Thought
"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."

Protestors clash with the police riots during the march to the parliament against austerity measures announced by the Spanish government in Madrid, Spain, Tuesday, Sept. 25, 2012. Spain's Parliament has taken on the appearance of a heavily guarded fortress with dozens of police blocking access from every possible angle, hours ahead of a protest against the conservative government's handling of the economic crisis. The demonstration, organized behind the slogan 'Occupy Congress,' is expected to draw thousands of people. It is due to start around 1730 GMT Tuesday. Madrid authorities said some 1,300 police would be deployed. The protestors call for Parliament to be dissolved and fresh elections held, claiming the government's austerity measures show the ruling Popular Party misled voters to get elected last November.

On January 1, the State Department submitted the 2014 U.S. Climate Action Report to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The report details actions that the U.S. is taking domestically and internationally to address climate change.
The 2014 report fulfills requirements under the UNFCCC for all Parties to report periodically on actions and progress in combating climate change. The last U.S. Climate Action Report was submitted in 2010.
The 2014 report indicates that:
A graph from the 2014 Climate Action Report, showing the range of projected emissions for (1) the 2012 Policy Baseline scenario (in blue), which assumes that no additional measures to reduce emissions are implemented after 2012; and (2) a scenario (in green) that incorporates post-2012 implementation of additional measures consistent with the Climate Action Plan (TgCO2e = teragrams of CO2 equivalents).
The report reflects the input of 21 Federal agencies, as well as members of the public. It contains the first ever U.S. Biennial Report and the sixth quadrennial National Communication to the UNFCCC. Together, these documents:

Already, 80% of cases of diabetes occur in low- and middle-income countries; Africa is expected to see the highest increase in diabetes over coming decades. The Diabetes Strategy for Sub-Saharan Africa was launched in 2006. Its goals and recommendations span the continuum of care. The Strategy targets politicians, healthcare funders, planners, policy-makers and providers, all public sectors, NGOs, all relevant industry sectors and private business, and the community generally to act to reduce the public and personal cost of diabetes. It is being actively implemented by the IDF African Region.

-1-The SEC rocks! If you disagree go look at the Top 3 BCS spots. The SEC EAST is another story in its self. LSU and BAMA took care of business to keep things steady at the TOP of the BCS. Arkansas started slow but then blew it wife open vs Mississippi State (a team both LSU and Bama struggled with). Don't count out Arkansas vs LSU. Les Miles always finds a way to screw up something during a big game. HE has not done it this whole season so I imagine it will happen when LSU plays Arkansas. What a mess the SEC tie breaker will be if Arkansas does win. If you are Stanford or Virginia Tech you are banking on some more madness.
-2- Oklahoma State got caught looking ahead to bedlam. Iowa State is a team you can not look past but has a record that makes you think different. What a fight for Iowa State. They hung in and never let themselves get down when Oklahoma State scored. Turned into a good grind it out match! Every conference has a team know for delivering upsets here and there. The BIG-12 has Iowa State, the BIG-10 has Northwestern or Iowa (depends on who you ask), the PAC-12 has Oregon State (not this year), while the ACC is just a mess and the SEC doesn't really have a constant underdog (maybe Vandy or Kentucky). Just be on the look out when you play those teams. Oklahoma State did not get the memo.
-3- BAYLOR! BAYLOR! BAYLOR! They made the whole state of Oklahoma upset. What a final drive by Griffin! When Stoops called the timeout he was looking to set up a blocked punt before overtime. Then Griffin magic took over on 20+ yard scrambles leading his team down the field. Then almost in field goal range, Griffin rolls out and BOOM,,,throws an amazing 40-yard TD pass with 6 seconds on the clock. Talk about heart breaker for Oklahoma. I am glad to see a struggling Baylor turn the program around. It shows what an amazing QB can do for a team. Best of Luck to Baylor for the rest of the season and I hope Griffin sticks around one more year!
-4-Lets keep rolling with upsets. USC over OREGON! WOW. Did not see that coming. I saw USC hanging in there but then Oregon to pull away at the end. Matt Barkley was amazing. The only error he made almost cost USC the game. Oregon fans now feel like Boise State fans..."wish we had a kicker"! I wish USC was not having to suffer for one players actions so long ago. They would be in the title game this year and have a shot at a possible BCS bowl game! Let's hope the NCAA does the right thing in the future and learn to punish those involved and not the program itself! (I know there is more to it but I just wish the best for Barkley) Barkley is also a player I would love to see stick around to get a shot at big time college football glory! On a side note, Oregon can not hang with teams who have a nasty defensive line. Look at Oregon's losses. Auburn, LSU, USC all had dominate D-Lines. Oregon has great athletes but need a little nasty on their team if they want to beat any time in the country!
-5-Houston is the last undefeated team next to LSU. Houston has some great numbers being put up but I do not believe they would fare well vs Alabama or Oklahoma in a BCS bowl game. Keenum has done great but they needed some last minute miracles to beat some pretty bad teams (Louisiana Tech). I Love Houston and everything about their program and coach but do not see them competing with the big times in a BCS game this year! I hope Houston stays put in C-USA and also hope their coach continues to build them into a power! Keenum gets my Heisman vote if they beat TULSA in the game of the year for them this week.
-6-I am Gator and would love to talk about how much they manhandled Furman this past week. WRONG! Furman gave the Gators all they could handle this week. If not for 2 INTs returned for Tds, I think we would have had another Appalachian State vs Michigan kind of game and results. The SEC EAST was finally set in stone when Georgia barely beat Kentucky! Georgia is going to have its hands full vs LSU, BAMA, or Arkansas in the SEC title game. Richt officially saved his job this year. Let's hope Vandy gets a win vs Wake Forest and goes to a bowl game this year. That would be huge for that program!
-7-Penn State had an emotional win over struggling Ohio State. This now sets up a winner take all show down with Penn State and Wisconsin this week. A rematch of Wisconsin vs Michigan State would be a great in the first BIG-10 title game. In other Big-10 news, Michigan throttled Nebraska to keep its BCS hopes alive. Good job for Brady Hoke in his first year at Michigan. I will be attending the Michigan vs Ohio State game this year! What a great rivalry to see in person, in the BIG HOUSE! The Big-10 will see a lot more games mattering every season now with a season title game on the line! I still hope they change the names of the divisions and also switch a few teams around. Give it a true West and East division! Maybe when the BIG-10 decides to go to 14 teams like the SEC and ACC, they will do some switching around.
-8- How about the ending to the Virginia vs FSU game. What an amazing win for Mike London and the whole Virginia team. For the first time in my life I hated instant replay since it gave FSU another chance to win the game. Now Boise State, FSU, and Oregon all wish they had a kicker! FSU's kicker is usually clutch....not today! Now the Virginia Tech vs Virginia rivalry sets up a winner take all rivalry game. Winner goes to ACC title game! Should be interesting! Virginia Tech has been such a quiet garbage team. They won all their games in the WEAK ACC and somehow find themselves in a position to play for the national title game...UGH!!! Drives me nuts!
-9-A shout out to North Carolina State. They humiliated Clemson. They just ripped Clemson of their cloud and rubbed their face in the dirt. Clemson needs to turn things around fast because they have South Carolina this week and the ACC title game next. Hopefully Clemson syndrome does not kick in and they are able to win out! The ACC is a mess but not as bad as the BIG EAST. Louisville is tied for first place with a 6-5 overall record. Have fun with that one BCS men!
-10- With all of these upsets happening, who do you give the Heisman to? Luck has talent but has not won in the BIG game vs Oregon. Richardson dominates anyone who stands in his way but LSU. Moore lost to TCU, the one game a lot of voters were watching (kickers fault), and Keenum still is putting up crazy numbers but no recognition because of the conference and schedule. I wonder if Voters will consider Griffin at Baylor after the Oklahoma win. That was huge. Who gets your vote? I would go with Keenum or Richardson.
This season is becoming EPIC every week with every upset. I look forward to rivalry week. Which games are the ones that will interest you? For the sake to end arguments I hope LSU plays BAMA for the title. That will be an amazing rematch for the title game. I DO NOT want to see V-Tech play for the title. If Arkansas wins then mass ANARCHY will begin! Just to make things crazy let's say go Arkansas this week!
Now let's do some picks:
Arkansas 24 LSU 14 UPSET (BCS chaos)
Florida 31 FSU 24 UPSET (Gators need this in the worst way)
Alabama 35 Auburn 3 (Tigers get rolled)
Texas A&M 42 Texas 31 (aggies make Texas want to continue to schedule them)
Houston 45 Tulsa 42 (Hello Heisman)
Georgia Tech 42 Georgia 38 (Sorry dawgs)
Wisconsin 38 Penn State 24
Clemson 28 South Carolina 24 (No Clemson Syndrome)
Stanford 38 Notre Dame 31
USC 49 UCLA 17 (and UCLA still goes to title game)

What is a computerized provider order entry (CPOE) system?A computerized provider order entry system (CPOE) is a computer system that allows physicians, physicians' assistants and nurse practitioners to enter medication or test orders directly into a computer instead of writing them by hand on paper.
CPOE has several benefits. Electronic orders are easy to read, avoiding the need to decipher hard-to-read handwriting. Computerized orders move faster than written paper orders -- the pharmacy instantly receives a doctor's medication order the moment he or she enters it in the computer. The computer software that runs CPOE also can deliver recommendations based on medical research, reminders to order medications and automatic alerts about potentially harmful drug interactions or patients' allergies to certain medications.
How are we doing?CPOE was introduced in all University of Missouri Health Care hospitals in 2010. Each month since University of Missouri Health Care implemented CPOE, our percentage of orders has been greater than 80 percent. That exceeds two important targets. The federal government has set a target of 30 percent of orders being placed with CPOE to meet its "meaningful use" rule, and the National Quality Forum has set a goal of 75 percent of medications being ordered through CPOE to meet its Safe Practice guidelines.
For the above graph: Higher ↑ performance is better.
What are we doing to improve?Now that CPOE has been adopted in all our inpatient areas, we are focusing on improving the system and expanding CPOE use to all our outpatient clinics. We began expanding CPOE to clinics in 2011 and plan to implement it in all of our clinics by late 2012.

pyratemp is probably (one of) the smallest complete template-engines for Python (with about 500 LOC). It has a very small set of special syntax in the templates. This reduces complexity and the probability of bugs and lead to an easy-to-use and intuitive user-interface. It uses embedded Python-expressions (in a "sandbox"), is well documented, has full Unicode-support, and produces very good error-messages, which is very useful when creating new templates.
Cloud User Shell (cush) is a multi-call executable bringing RESTful cloud control to the command line, combining many useful cloud computing utilities into a single executable. It follows the Unix philosophy of writing components that work together, do one thing and do it well, and communicate over text (HTTP) streams. It is also RESTful, clearly delineating the 3 sides of the REST Triangle: verbs (e.g. GET), nouns (e.g. http://samj.net/), and content types (e.g. text/html).

Athletic/football/soccer fields are the toughest of all turf areas to maintain. These fields must be maintained properly to provide adequate turf, while minimizing the chance of injury to players. Constant play on athletic/football/soccer fields will cause the turf to deteriorate and become unplayable and possibly dangerous to the athletes. Regular maintenance which involves aerifying and reseeding will limit turf damage.
The City of Inglewood currently has three athletic/football/soccer fields: Darby Park Multi-Purpose Field, Vincent Park Soccer Field A and Vincent Park Soccer Field B.
Proper scheduling offers the most effective means of reducing worn out turf. Athletic/football/soccer fields will be closed during maintenance periods. Maintenance periods are listed below:
Darby Park:
Fourth week in December through second week in February
Vincent Park Soccer/Football Field:
Third week in February through fourth week in March
Third week in July through fourth week in August
The above schedule will be followed as closely as possible. However, changes may occur or deviations from the schedule may happen.

If having IZOD IndyCar Champion — and two-time winner of the Molson/Honda Indy Toronto — Dario Franchitti at next month's Canadian Motorsports Expo wasn't enough, the news today is that NASCAR Nationwide Series champ Brad Keselowski is coming too.
Fans will be able to meet, greet and get an autograph from Keselowski — who's a pretty good NASCAR Sprint Cup Series star as well — on Sun, Jan. 23, at the International Centre out by Toronto Pearson.
Franchitti will be the headliner at the Expo the day before. The show opens on the Friday evening with a special Ontario stock car racing show built around a late model car belonging to the late — and legendary — "Daytona" Don Biederman and a panel featuring Junior Hanley.
From humble beginnings five years ago, the Canadian Motorsports Expo has become a must-attend event. Held in the dead of winter, the Expo features special guests like Franchitti and Keselowski, manufacturer and speedway displays, panel discussions (translation: arguments) and other attractions that always help to get the juices flowing.
Keselowski — who's also raced for Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s JR Motorsports — made headlines in 2010 with his intense, head-to-head battle with Carl Edwards. In fact, he set an altitude record at Atlanta last spring when Edwards gave his car a love tap exiting turn four, sending it up, up and away.
When Keselowski won the Nationwide title, it gave his car owner, Roger Penske, his first NASCAR championship — which is pretty hard to believe, considering how Penske cars have dominated Indy car racing for much of the last 30 years. Next year, the Michigan native will pilot Penske's "Blue Deuce" No. 2 Miller Lite Dodge in the Sprint Cup Series.
Just before travelling to Toronto, Keselowski will take part in pre-season testing at the newly-resurfaced Daytona International Speedway, in advance of Speedweeks 2011 and the Daytona 500.
By the way, he won't be the only NASCAR star appearing north of the border that Jan. 21-23 weekend. Michael Waltrip, who's now trying to become a standup comedian (there are some who would say that his stock car racing career was pretty much a big joke), will be the headline act at the Caesars Windsor casino on the Saturday night.
The star of Michael Waltrip's Comedy Garage will undoubtedly have the audience rolling in the aisles as he shoots off one-liners about starting in the NASCAR Cup series in 1985 and not winning a race until 2001 — a record of (what?) zero for 540?

OVC Digital Network Stream (Sunday Only) Live Stats Austin Peay Radio
MARTIN, Tenn. - The University of Tennessee at Martin baseball squad closes out its Ohio Valley Conference home schedule with a three-game series against the Austin Peay Governors this weekend at Skyhawk Field. First pitch times are set for 6 p.m. on Friday, May 10, 4 p.m. on Saturday, May 11 and 1 p.m. on Sunday, May 12.
Sunday's game is scheduled to be streamed online, free of charge on the OVC Digital Network. That link - as well as links for live stats and Austin Peay's radio broadcast are available at the top of the page.
Before the series finale on Sunday, the UT Martin coaching staff will recognize the career contributions of 10 players as part of Senior Day festivities. Isaac Armstrong, Kyle Bargery, Grant Glasser, Matt Haynes, Byron Johann, Trevor Lundgrin, Hagen Nelson, Jordan Stokes, Dan Tobik and Nick Wilson have combined for 145 pitching appearances, 320.2 innings pitched, 276 hits and 117 RBI's in their careers.
The last time these two teams met in Martin was one of the most memorable games in recent memory. In the 2011 regular season finale, UT Martin faced a must-win situation against the Governors in order to qualify for the OVC Tournament. The Skyhawks clawed back from a 5-0 deficit after six innings of play to chalk up a 7-6 victory, punching their ticket to the postseason.
The Skyhawk offense has been led lately by Nelson, who has hit safely in nine of his last 11 games for a .324 average in that span. He is coming off back-to-back multi-hit games at the plate.
This weekend, UT Martin (10-34, 3-21 OVC) will go with senior right-hander Dan Tobik (1-6, 6.75 ERA) in Game 1, followed by sophomore southpaws Taylor Cox (0-5, 5.94) and Dalton Potts (4-5, 5.96) in Games 2 and 3, respectively. Tobik ranks third in the OVC in strikeouts per nine innings (9.69).
The two-time defending OVC champions, the Austin Peay (35-13, 16-7 OVC) offense is led by Craig Massoni, who ranks second in the league in batting average (.372), slugging percentage (.612), on-base percentage (.461) and RBI's (53).
Zach Hall (5-2, 5.72 ERA), Casey Delgado (6-2, 4.94) and Ryan Quick (4-2, 6.81) are listed as the Governors' probable starting pitchers. That trio will try to keep a lead for closer Tyler Rogers (1.85 ERA), who leads the nation with 19 saves and ranks second in the OVC with seven victories.

Decorative Arts - 9 of 11
Paul de Lamerie
English, 1688-1751
Two-Handled Cup and Cover
London, 1742/43
39.4 cm high, 23.3 cm wide at handles
The two-handled cup of 1742/43 might be called a signature piece of Paul de Lamerie, the eminent goldsmith of eighteenth-century England. The rococo style is abundantly apparent in the enlivened and energetic design of the object. Its myriad details - the infant Bacchus, grape clusters, scrolls, and flowers - create a breathtaking and dizzying effect. On the foot, two lions' heads are adrift on a sea of scrolls; on the handle, a tiny lizard perches atop a bunch of grapes.

I wanted to share with your readers what kind of a man our Sheriff Bill Masters is. Earlier this week I had a doctors appointment in Montrose, and while driving down the Norwood hill I entered a dark shadow and apparantely hit a boulder with my right front tire. I looked at it and it seemed to hold air so I continued. A couple of miles down the road suddenly there was a loud bang so I pulled over, got out and looked again at the tire and it was totally gone. Just the rim left. Never having changed a tire on that vehicle I found the spare and the jack but could not see under the car to be sure where the jack should go. After several tries, with the car slipping on the jack I gave up and decided to hitchhike back to Norwood and call a tow company to change the tire. Needless to say there was no cellphone service where the car was. In a few minutes a car came by, stopped and asked what was the problem. The driver was Bill Masters. I asked for a ride to Norwood and he said fine, but wouldn't I like him to try to change the tire...I responded gee if you would be willing to maybe I could still make the appointment. With great difficulty Bill was able to accomplish putting on the spare and I made the appointment. I think this is a great example of what kind of sheriff we have here in San Miguel County. Truly a sheriff of the people. Thank you very much, Bill.
– Walter Farnham

Rio Summit participant denied entry in Brazil
A journalist and member of Friends of the Earth Mozambique, Jeremias Vunjanhe, was denied entry at the airport of Rio de Janeiro on June 13, despite carrying a valid visa and a valid accreditation at the UN Rio+20 Summit as part of Friends of the Earth International delegation.
Mr Vunjanhe was expected to expose the negative impacts of Brazilian mining corporation Vale at the Peoples Summit, a parallel event of the UN Rio+20 Summit. Vale is one of the official sponsors of the UN Summit. The activist did not get any explanation as to why he was sent back to Mozambique.
Friends of the Earth Mozambique supported hundreds of Mozambican families which were resettled by Brazilian company Vale in the Moatize district and carried out demonstrations in recent months to reclaim their rights.
While Friends of the Earth International has received a commitment from the Brazilian Ministry of Foreign Affairs that Jeremias will be brought back to Rio this Monday, we demand a public explanation and excuses from the Brazilian government.
In Rio de Janeiro, Friends of the Earth International is campaigning against the growing influence of big corporations and business lobby groups within the UN, through government delegations, and in multilateral negotiations. We are requesting a clear public statement from the UN that its priority is to serve the public interest and not business interests, and a commitment to take concrete steps that will limit industry's influence in UN decision-making processes.
We believe that as a host country Brazil should ensure that the freedom of expression prevails over the interests of corporations and guarantee the right of people to protest.

Graduate Program in Gerontology
|Lisa Hollis-Sawyer
|Department Website
The mission of the graduate Gerontology Program is to contribute to the quality of life of older adults through education, research, and community service. To that end, the program seeks to train practitioners through a broad education in the history, characteristics, and circumstances of this older population and prepare them to make a contribution to direct service, advocacy, and research. As such, this program is appropriate for individuals working in the field, for those seeking professional-level entry into the field, and also for those whose interest is in studying aging for their own academic or personal growth.
Is this for me?
The new Post-baccalaureate Certificate in Gerontology and M.A. in Gerontology Programs are designed to meet the educational needs of a variety of student groups: those already working with older adults, those contemplating a career change, and those working in other fields who wish to increase their knowledge of aging processes. All students complete a set of required courses providing a solid background in the concepts of gerontology. For the master's degree, additional elective courses permit the student to gain expertise in either counseling/clinical gerontology or administration/social policy.
The Baby Boom generation is aging and their aging-related needs are affecting all aspects of society (e.g., education, service industries). Professionals in all fields need to be trained in gerontology to better understand how to serve a population whose average age will continue to rise until about the year 2050.
