Serves 8
A small amount of sweet fennel sausage adds enormous flavor to this Italian-inflluenced meatloaf. Create your own customized meatloaf recipe with the Recipe Maker.
Heat 2 Tbs. of the oil in a 10- to 12-inch skillet over medium-low heat. Cook the onion and garlic, stirring frequently, until softened and just beginning to brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the white wine, and simmer briskly, until almost dry, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and let cool until warm. In a shallow dish that holds it in a single layer, soak the bread in the milk, flipping once, until soggy but not falling apart, 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the coarseness and freshness of the bread. Lightly squeeze a handful of bread at a time to remove some of the milk (it should be wet but not drenched). Finely chop and add to the bowl with the onion mixture. Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 375°F. Add the beef, veal, and sausage and eggs to the onion mixture. Scatter the Parmigiano, parsley, and lemon zest over the meat, and then sprinkle with the Worcestershire, 2-1/4 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Use your hands to gently mix all the ingredients until just combined; try not to compact the mixture as you do this. Heat the remaining 1 tsp. of oil in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Form 1 Tbs. of the meatloaf mixture into a small patty. When the oil is hot, cook the patty on both sides until cooked through, about 5 minutes total. Transfer to a plate and let cool slightly. Taste and adjust the salt, pepper, and other seasonings as needed. Repeat until you're satisfied with the flavor. Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment. Transfer the meatloaf mixture to the baking pan and form into a 10x4-inch rectangular block (it becomes loaf-shaped as it cooks). Spread the honey over the top and lightly down the sides of the meatloaf to glaze it. Bake until an instant-read thermometer registers 160°F in the center of the meatloaf, 40 to 55 minutes. Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board or serving platter with a large spatula and cut into 3/4- to 1-inch-thick slices.

by bellaginger, 12/30/2012My husband said it was the best meatloaf he ever had! Followed the recipe exactly & it was delicious. Glazed it with the honey for cooking and served with a bit of ketchup on top.

by heide130, 3/23/2011I made this tonight and it was fantastic. Unbelievably moist and flavorful! Only change was that I omitted the honey and added some red pepper flakes for a bit of heat. Great recipe.
by onnie, 2/21/2011I did everything except the honey and worstershire sauce (I know bad spelling) and used olive bread - yum yum yum best meatloaf I ever made.

Award granted | Graduate Diploma of Teaching (Primary) |
CRICOS course code | 060938G |
Deakin course code | E665 |
The Graduate Diploma of Teaching (Primary) is offered through intensive mode at the Geelong Waurn ponds Campus, commencing in November each year and finishing in June of the following year.
Duration: a 7-month full-time course for applicants with an approved three year undergraduate degree or diploma.
The Graduate Diploma of Teaching (Primary) is designed to prepare graduates to be eligible for registration and employment as teachers in primary schools. Deakin's highly relevant Graduate Diploma of Teaching (Primary) provides:
Delivery and location
This course commences in Trimester 3 (November to January) and continues in First trimester the following year.
Trimester 3 study commences with two weeks of on-campus attendance and one week of induction in schools before the Christmas break. In mid January the following year, trimester 3 re-commences with a further three weeks of on-campus classes and a 5-day professional experience in schools.
First trimester of the following year, students will attend on-campus once a week and attend their schools for the professional experience (supervised school experience) component of the course the remaining four days of the week.
Professional experience placements
All professional experience is undertaken in a defined group of Geelong schools. The schools provide challenging, high-intensity experiences so that the students are 'teacher-ready' at the conclusion of their course.
Contact hours
Each unit of study consists of a minimum of 30 hours of contact time.
In intensive mode, this translates to on-campus attendance from 9.00am to 4.00pm Monday to Friday. (Trimester 3)
In trimester 1, professional school experience will require attendance from 8.30am to 4.30pm at the nominated school. On-campus delivery will occur between 9.00am and 4.00pm. In addition, there will be two single weeks of intensive study held on-campus.
Teaching methods
Students receive instructional materials through CloudDeakin, CD-ROM and website links. Interaction with lecturers is primarily through on-campus tutorials and in addition is provided through use of CloudDeakin, email and telephone links.
Approved by Victorian Institute of Teaching (VIT) as a preservice teaching qualification.
International students and permanent residents

Working with Children Check
The Working with Children Act 2005 (Vic.) requires a person who engages in child-related work, as defined in the Act, to obtain an assessment notice under the Act, known as a Working with Children Check (WWCC). The Act is administered by the Department of Justice: justice.vic.gov.au
School experience placements in schools in the course of a university degree are "child-related work". Under the Working with Children Act 2005 (Vic.), administered by the Department of Justice, a student teacher must obtain a Working with Children Check (WWCC) before commencing school experience placements in a school. The WWCC must remain current throughout the course. It is an offence under the Act to engage in school experience without holding a WWCC.
Students will not be allowed to commence school experience in any school in Victoria until a Working with Children Check is obtained. The Department of Education has requested that on the application form a student nominates the University as the (or one of the) employers. The University will then be sent a copy of the assessment notice. Because the University needs to assure a school that a student placed at the school has a current Working with Children Check, each student must give their authority to provide the assurance - a student will be required to sign an authority for the University to inform a school that a WWCC has or has not been obtained.
While the University will hold on file documentation relating to the WWCCs obtained by students engaged in school experience, it is each student's responsibility to ensure that he or she can produce the WWCC card to the school upon request and to keep the WWCC current under the Act.
Students are required to apply for a WWCC through a participating Australia Post outlet (which can be found on the Australia Post website or the Department of Justice website) and provide proof to the faculty that the WWCC has been undertaken.
Should a student fail to obtain a WWCC, practical training in a school will not be provided, and as practical training is a requirement for completion of a teaching degree, the student may be unable to complete the degree. Should such a situation arise, the University will provide advice on options for tertiary study.
It is the responsibility of students undertaking placements outside Victoria to enquire about and, where necessary, to meet any similar legislative or other requirements concerning working with children.
Students are required for registration purposes (and for the award of the degree) to have completed over the duration of their course a minimum of 45 days of supervised school experience. Students should ensure they are conversant with the Standards for Graduating Students as required by the Victorian Institute of Teaching. The school experience is organised by the Professional Experience Office and students do not make contact with schools regarding placements under any circumstances. Students are required to comply with the on-line instructions regarding enrolment/re-enrolment in school experience; failure to enrol/re-enrol jeopardises a student's school experience placement.
Students should note that it is a requirement of the course that school experience is undertaken in conjunction with their curriculum studies and Education Major studies and during the time tabled dates unless, in exceptional circumstances, alternative arrangements are negotiated and agreed to in writing with the Professional Experience Office. Students should note that normally any paid or unpaid work undertaken in a school as an unqualified teacher/teacher's aide will not be recognised for credit transfer and recognition in supervised school experience for this course. Students may be required to complete the school experience component of the course outside the academic year.
A satisfactory level of teaching competence during supervised school experience is required for award of the degree. An "unsatisfactory" result on any school experience placement will be referred to the Faculty Academic Progress and Discipline Committee.
Graduates of an accredited teaching course should note that teacher registration is required in Victoria and is administered by the Victorian Institute of Teaching under the Education and Training Reform Act 2006 (Vic.). Prospective students should acquaint themselves with the requirements for registration in Victoria or in any other relevant location. These requirements include the ability to satisfy the Standards for Graduating Students (available at: vit.vic.edu.au)
Students need to carefully follow the instructions correctly when enrolling or re-enrolling online in school experience units. Failure to enrol or re-enrol correctly jeopardises a student's school experience placement and this could lead to a delay in the award of the degree. Students must follow Faculty rules in relation to the number of days of school experience to be completed for each placement as per the Professional Experience Handbook (available from the campus of enrolment) which includes the published school experience timetable. Students should note that a 'day' constitutes a whole school day (not part thereof).
Students should obtain a copy of the Professional Experience Handbook each year from the Professional Experience Office (also available at deakin.edu.au/arts-ed/education/schoolexp ). Information contained in the Handbook is updated annually and is a summary of Faculty rules in relation to school experience.

Current guidelines recommend prophylactic treatment with propranolol or endoscopic band ligation (EBL) to prevent variceal bleeding in patients with medium or large varices. However, it is unclear which treatment is more useful in regard to prevention of variceal bleeding as well as safety. In addition, the efficacy and safety of the combination of EBL and propranolol is not still defined. This study is performed to compare the efficacy and safety of EBL, propranolol, and EBL combined with propranolol in patients with medium or large varices.

NEW YORK Secondary lead industry stakeholders have voted against a proposal to draft new standards for lead battery recycling, a move that drew criticism from RSR Corp. The vote took place last week at a meeting organized by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), which proposed that new standards be drafted. More than 100 people attended the meeting, an ASTM spokesman told AMM, noting that this included representatives from Milwaukee-based Johnson Controls Inc.; Exide Technologies, Milton, Ga.; Gopher Resource LLC, Eagan, Minn.; and Dallas-based RSR.....

As a second round of peace talks ended Saturday with little progress in ending Syria's civil war, U.S. President Barack Obama and Jordan's King Abdullah spoke about Syria's distressing humanitarian crisis during an earlier meeting in California.
Jordan is a refuge for war-battered Syrians, and both leaders urged an end to the warfare that has caused such a mass exodus. They also discussed a possible United Nations sanction to pressure the Syrian regime of President Bashar al-Assad.
Meanwhile, in Geneva, U.N. mediator Lakhdar Brahimi apologized to the Syrian people, saying he was "very, very sorry" that, despite two rounds of talks, "we haven't done very much."
In minimal progress, the two warring sides have agreed to an agenda for a third round of talks, but they have not agreed on how to tackle it, Brahimi said.
In Britain, U.K. Foreign Minister William Hague described the latest developments as "a serious setback in the search for peace in Syria." Hague blamed the Syrian regime because it refused to discuss a transitional government.
Brahimi said the key sticking point is that the Syrian government wants to talk about tackling terrorism, while the opposition wants to discuss forming a transitional governing body.
Brahimi said he had suggested starting the next round of talks with one day of discussion on each issue, but the government would not agree.
"Unfortunately the government has refused, which raises the suspicion of the opposition that, in fact, the government doesn't want to discuss the (transitional governing body) at all," he said. Brahimi said such intransigence was "not good for the process," nor was it good for Syria.
Negotiators should go back to their leaders and reflect on a way forward, he said. "Do they want this process to take place or not?"
Louay Safi, of the opposition umbrella group Syrian National Coalition, said: "We want to progress on the two sides. We want to be assured that the regime is really wanting a political solution, not delay tactics, and we didn't get that, for reasons that were described by Mr. Brahimi.
"Our heart is in pain, our delegation is in pain, that as we speak here searching for a political solution the regime has chosen to bombard towns and cities killing civilians."
Syrian Ambassador to the United Nations Bashar Jaafari, in turn, accused the opposition of trying to mislead observers and undermine the process.
"We are committed to serving the interests of our own people, in stopping the bloodshed," he told reporters in Geneva.
"We don't have an impasse. We are still in negotiations; we didn't say that we have failed."
Jordan and the United States
In California, Obama and King Abdullah held a meeting Friday that lasted until almost midnight in the desert community of Indian Wells, near Palm Springs.
Obama said the United States would seek ways to bring peace.
"We're going to continue to strategize on how we can effectively change the calculus inside the country so that we can have a Syria that is intact, that is respectful of all groups, that ends the killing, and that allows for a representative government that can provide peace and prosperity for everybody there," Obama said.
"There will be some intermediate steps that we can take to apply more pressure to the Assad regime, and we're going to be continuing to work with all the parties concerned to try to move forward on a diplomatic solution."
Obama noted that Jordan has just taken a rotating seat on the United Nations Security Council. In a background briefing with pool reporters after the meeting, a senior administration official said Obama and King Abdallah discussed a possible U.N. resolution that could pressure the Syrian regime and "create a legal precedent for cross-border operations."
The White House added that a strong resolution on Syria didn't necessarily need to include threats of force but could be "strong in terms of the obligations and expectations that it would impose on the regime to improve the humanitarian access."
Jordan, a key U.S. ally in the Middle East, is hosting almost 600,000 refugees from Syria, and on Saturday, the President announced new loan guarantees for Jordan totaling $1 billion.
The senior official targeted Russia in his remarks, urging the Russians to play a "more constructive role" in finding a solution.
"As long as they remain wedded to the status quo, this is going to be a difficult problem to resolve," the official said, speaking of Russia's continued support for the Syrian regime.
Russia "can't have it both ways," the official said. "They can't say they're in favor of negotiations in Geneva and a transitional government guided by full executive authority and humanitarian access and have a happy Olympics, and then be part and parcel of supporting this regime as it kills people in the most brutal way."

Definition of calends in English:
Line breaks: cal|endsPronunciation: /ˈkalɪndz
(also kalends)
- The first day of the month in the ancient Roman calendar.More example sentences
- The first day of the month in the Roman calendar was known as the 'kalends', from which we get the word 'calendar'. The calendar was reorganised in 46 BC on the order of Julius Caesar, so that the first day of the new year became January 1.
- It is also the origin of the word calendar itself, which originally meant an account book, the calends being the days on which accounts became due for payment.
Old English (denoting an appointed time): from Old French calendes, from Latin kalendae, calendae 'first day of the month' (when accounts were due and the order of days was proclaimed); related to Latin calare and Greek kalein 'call, proclaim'.

HTC Desire to hit U.S. Cellular on August 27
In April, U.S. Cellular revealed that it would offer the Android-based HTC Desire this summer, but since then, we've been waiting for an official release date. Well, it looks like we finally got one.

The Desire will ship running Android 2.1 with HTC Sense; it features a 3.7-inch WVGA touch screen, a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, and a 5-megapixel camera.

Let the second annual Tasting Games begin! May the odds be ever in your flavor.read more
Although this season of The Taste began with a single spoonful of food from each contestant, on Tuesday's finale, the remaining cooks served the judges three spoons in an effort to take home the top prize. So, which cook won? Let's break it down:read more
The competition started with one tasting spoon, and ultimately there can be only one winner. On the season finale of ABC's The Taste (Tuesday at 9/8c), special guest chef/restauranteur Jose Andres will drop by to help determine the series' first-ever champ. Nigella Lawson is the odd lady out since none of her team members advanced to the finals, which means the remaining judges' contestants will go head-to-head to win a grand prize of $100,000, a new car and a nifty Taste trophy. Who will win? Chef Ludo Lefebvre talked to TVGuide.com to size up the Final 4:read more

Although Brian Malarkey may be the mentor with the least amount of TV exposure on The Taste, the Season 3 Top Chef finalist is no slouch when it comes to food.
The chef owns six restaurants with partner James Brennan and will expand to 15 more nationally in the next five years. In fact, he's the only chef on the judging panel — which also includes Anthony Bourdain, Nigella Lawson and Ludo Lefebvre — who is working in an actively open restaurant on a day-to-day basis, although Lefebvre has a non-pop-up endeavor opening soon.
"Trust me. It's game on!" Chef Ludo Lefebvre is psyched for viewers to watch Tuesday's episode of The Taste (8/7c, ABC), when the culinary reality series shifts from the audition to competition rounds. Now that he and his fellow mentors -- Anthony Bourdain, Nigella Lawson and Brian Malarkey -- have chosen their four-person teams of home cooks and professional chefs, it's time to pit them against each other. Beyond the increased heat in the kitchen, the possibility of eliminating one of their own team members during the blind taste-test drove the mentors to drink. read more
Nigella Lawson is proof that you can have it all, even if you are a just a home cook.
The British TV star, who herself is a home cook, can add ABC's culinary competition show The Taste, which airs Tuesdays at 8/7c, to her string of hit cooking shows. On the new series, she and three other chefs — Anthony Bourdain, Ludo Lefebvre and Brian Malarkey — select contestants to be on their team based on a one-bite, blind taste test. Therefore, professional chefs and home cooks alike have an equal chance to compete, but it's not an easy thing to impress four widely different palates and deal with their mentoring styles.
What is the secret ingredient that Anthony Bourdain wants his team to use on The Taste? Tears.
When ABC's new cooking competition show kicks off Tuesday at 8/7c, Bourdain and three other judges — British TV cook Nigella Lawson, Ludo Bites America's Ludo Lefebvre and former Top Chef competitor Brian Malarkey — will taste-test one bite of food from each of 29 hopefuls competing for one of only 16 spots on the judges' teams. But the tastings will be conducted blind, which means the judges won't know if a professional chef or a self-taught home cook prepared the dish.
'Tis the season to give, receive and ogle tasty TV chefs.

7/2/12 – Montreux, Switzerland
note to self: kale makes everything better. make sure it tastes good.
revelation: there was a moment tonight, during the performance of 'you oughta know', where my whole life journey, in all its' phoenix-rising-suck-it-up-perseverance, made sense. the hair on my arms was standing up the whole time. i saw that the planet, culturally, has been moving from alpha women being burned at the stake and having their heads chopped off, many years ago, through my great grandmother's and mother's generation, where they had to sublimate their essential self for harmony reasons (aka: placating and a multitude of versions of self-betrayal), into my own….where even in 1995, patriarchy was rampant in the music industry and otherwise (i felt hate, in this context of patriarchy, being sent toward me for being who i WAS)… to where we are Now. where in my marriage and in culture in general, women are supported in being who they Are. alpha, beta, either. and that being clear about how empowered versions of beta and alpha Work. and how hierarchy can be re-defined as a context where everyone knows their roles, and that we can all work together toward the same end. and how one context to the next allows for the redefining of these roles. all this headiness to say that we have come SO FAR. and that there is beauty and harmony in these two orientations being played out—with awareness. that there is a light at the end of this gender war tunnel. and that in all the challenges that both genders have had to endure, there has been a gorgeous finish line…that we've been moving toward, and that can work really, really well. no without difficulty, as such, but at least without re-traumatization. and with healing. and with a great understanding of of what is possible, when both genders, both the alpha and the beta, work together. this was a quick flash. and a healing for me. with my having sung you oughta know so many times. with an ache in my heart. more on this down the road. just felt compelled to share.
favorite moment: hugging claude onstage here in montreux. he has given so much to so many artists, around the planet. and us artists are the true grateful to him. xo

By Jamie Dupree
A U.S. House committee has released a video spoof on the movie "Patton" produced for a pair of VA conferences held last year in Orlando - the cost to taxpayers of the video was about $52,000.
"I question the excessiveness in which taxpayer dollars are being used to fund multi-million dollar conferences," said House Veterans Affairs Committee Chairman Rep. Jeff Miller (R-FL).
In a statement released on Wednesday morning, Miller vowed to investigate the conferences and the cost - reportedly $5 million.
"I have requested all budgets and materials for VA conferences that have occurred over the past three years to see if these two conferences are an anomaly or are part of a bigger pattern," Miller added.
Here is the video:
The Department of Veterans Affairs released this statement last week on the internal investigation into these two conferences:
"Secretary Shinseki has made clear that the people who serve our Veterans are keepers of the public trust, and that working for the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is a privilege. Allegations of misconduct received by the VA Office of Inspector General (OIG) regarding two training conferences in 2011 are unacceptable. The Department is cooperating fully with the IG's investigation, Secretary Shinseki has informed key members of Congress, and will hold accountable any individuals who are found to have misused taxpayer dollars or violated our standards of conduct.
Leave me a note on what you think of the video below.

Hoover cut its deficit to 14-7 on sophomore tailback Shaun Dotson's 4-yard score early in the second quarter. That was set up by Huskies sophomore quarterback Tyler Americo's lateral after a 9-yard gain to the 50 to senior wideout Joey Forbes, who sprinted down the sideline for a 45-yard gain to the Skyhawks' 5.
After that, though, Scott scored on its next four possessions to sew the game up.
"We wanted to try something new since everybody knew exactly what we do,'' said Bias. "This week we got better by learning something new. We started using [this offense] three days [ago] and we're already executing. It opened a lot more holes. It messed with their heads a little bit.''
Forbes finished with 46 yards on two carries for the Huskies (1-7) and Americo went 6 of 11 passing for 62 yards with an interception and added 33 yards rushing. Dotson was held to 11 yards on five carries, but added four catches for 48 yards.
"They're a big physical team,'' said Hoover coach Tim Meyer of Scott. "They come off the ball hard. They ran a couple of wing-T traps and a couple of other things. They're just a good football team. We played pretty well for most of the first half. Our kids never really gave up. They played hard.''
Hoover honored its third Athletic Hall of Fame class at halftime. Stephen Chandler, Matt Fleshman, Dave Gandee, Anita Holbert King, Richard Stump and Robin Vealey were recognized for their on-field accomplishments, Pete Kelley was enshrined for his contributions in coaching and athletic administration and Charles Watt Jr. was honored as a valued friend of the program for years of volunteer service.

[Photo/Indiana State Police]
In Hammond this morning, an early morning rush hour crash stopped eastbound traffic on the Borman Expressway just west of Cline Avenue, sending one person to the hospital. Indiana State Police at the Lowell Post say a preliminary investigation revealed the semi-trailer was parked disabled on the outer shoulder with its emergency triangles out behind it when a mini-van in the far right lane for unknown reasons drove off the road, through the triangles, and struck the left rear of the box trailer. Police say the driver of the mini-van was taken to a local hospital with a laceration to his head and chest injuries.The mini-van was split in two by the impact, police say, and was loaded with car parts that were strewn across three lanes of eastbound traffic. The semi was loaded with over sixty-thousand pounds of cardboard and drums, and officials say no load was lost but the trailer had to be towed due to damage Troopers also say a second semi traveling in the right middle lane hit some of the debris and his driver's side running board was damaged. The semi drivers were not hurt, police say. All lanes reopened shortly after 7 am.

The man accused of robbing a group of Girl Scouts who were selling cookies at a Pathmark store in January was arrested.
Tredyffrin Township Police say they identified their suspect as 31-year-old Jevon Michael Avis. Police say he was arrested Tuesday night by law enforcement in Cumberland County after investigators connected him to a rash of purse snatchings and thefts.
Avis is accused of approaching a Girl Scout troop at a Tredyffrin Pathmark Store on the 400 block of W. Swedesford Road back on January 20 and taking an unknown amount of cash from a plastic container that had money meant for U.S. troops.
It was the quick action of a Girl Scout who police say prevented Avis from taking money from the sales of Girl Scout cookies.
In February, police say officers responded to a report of retail theft at an Acme in Paoli, where more than $100 worth of merchandise was stolen. The suspect in the theft, police say, left the store but was confronted by employees. The man then left the items and drove off.
Less than a week later, on February 25, police say they responded to a purse snatching at the Pathmark store. It was then that police say they identified the suspect as Avis.
Police say Avis was arraigned in court on theft related charges. According to investigators, Avis confessed to additional crimes, including the robbery of the Girl Scouts.

The on-campus and online colleges available to you at U.S. News University Directory offer an immense variety of educational options. You can advance your career goals with a degree in art and design, business degree, criminal justice programs, education and teaching degree, engineering program, degree in healthcare, human services program, legal and paralegal degree, liberal arts degree, nursing degree, political science program, science program, or technology degree. Remember that in times of economic uncertainty, those with advanced degrees and certifications seldom have to worry about job security. When the unemployment rate reached 6.7% in November of 2008, the rate for people with a bachelor's degree or higher was only 3.1% – less than half the national average.
Both traditional and online university degrees should come from an accredited educational institution. The exceptional reputation of U.S. News & World Report means that you can trust in the quality and value of the programs offered here; the vast majority of educational institutions presented at U.S. News University Directory are accredited by one of the six regional United States accrediting agencies. The only schools that are not so accredited are those for which regional accreditation is not typically expected, such as most vocational and technical schools. Instead, these institutions are usually accredited by a national, field-specific accrediting body.
Whether studying online or on-campus, many students qualify for financial aid. Depending on your area of study, educational institution, and financial circumstances a variety of grants and scholarships may be available to you. Student loans are also an option for most students. Both active-duty military service members and veterans can take advantage of the Montgomery G.I. Bill or the Post-9/11 G.I. Bill (including the new Yellow Ribbon Program). Your advisor will help you research and apply for financial aid.

CNN predicted that Gore woidd win Florida, but after a close call a vote recount was mandated By ROB BEARD OF THE NETXNEWS STAFF NATIONAL Texas Governor George W. Bush cautiously declared himself winner of the 2000 Presidential Campaign Wednesday, despite the fact that his narrow lead in Florida was pending investigation. Bush's announcement came after a wild night of election results, one that saw George W. Bush projected to both lose and win the presidency. By the time the dust settled Wednesday morning, national polling revealed that Al Gore had won the popular vote by only 167,813 votes. But the all-important electoral college picture wasn't as clear. At the heart of the election is the hotly contested state of Florida a considerable prize in any election year the deciding fac- NetXNews revamps internet site By AMBER VOORHEES OF THE NETXNEWS STAFF Utah Valley State College has a new link to the world wide web. Campus Engine has aided the construction of the new NetXNews.net. The project has been completed and running since Tuesday. NetXNews.net has been designed specifically to connect the newspaper to the students in an interactive way. It offers a variety of features that will give students access to up to date news from the The College Times, and online study groups for students to meet on the web. Ovilla Wilson, Editor-in-chief, said, "I think the key is interaction. The students can get on and respond to any of the stories, they can set up an email account.. .participate in forums for study groups, and the newspaper is updated daily." Scott Holdsworth has worked to make the project come to life. Gavin Payne has been working alongside Holdsworth. Payne said that he thinks that it is overall a great thing for the school. It will enhance browsing on the internet, and has made it easier for the web staff crew. Campus Engine will be a benefit to the school and those who belong to the college newspaper by generating money from more ads, sponsors, and links.

It is impossible for either candidate to win the presidency without carrying the state. Florida's 25 electoral college votes go to the candidate who finishes with the most votes in the state. At issue this year is just who that candidate is. When most of Florida's polls closed at 7 p.m. ET Tuesday, major news networks estimated that Gore had carried the state and would get the electoral college votes. The Bush camp emphatically insisted that their data indicated a Bush win in the state. However, for the next three hours Florida was attributed to Gore. The situation became frenetic at about 10 p.m. ET, when media outlets retracted their projections concerning Florida and moved the state to the undecided list. At that point it became clear that in order to take the presidency, the winner would have to acquire Florida and its 25 votes. As the night wore on, optimism began to build in the Bush camp. Election results showed Bush ahead in Florida throughout the night, although Gore began to close the gap as more precincts reported. Meanwhile, Gore took the all-important states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, and California. Bush built his electoral college total with victories throughout the Midwest, South, and West. Despite winning the big electoral prizes, Gore was unable to pull ahead. The battle waged until 2 a.m. ET, when the media consortium declared George W. Bush the winner of Florida, and its 25 votes.

They are still trying to explain why their candidates experienced minimal success. By DANIELLE WHITE OF THE NETXNEWS STAFF UTAH COUNTY The buck stops here. Whereas the national elections kept Americans in a juger-naunt of suspense, Utah GOP appear to have reigned supreme as expected. There are some familiar faces. Republican Gov. Mike O. Leavitt, Chris Cannon, Curtis Bramble, Representative Glenn Way, and Utah County Commissioner Gary Herbert were all re-elected. "I had a lot of people ask me to run again. I wanted to be apart of keeping the train going in the right direction," said Herbert. "It was expected that Utah would have a clean sweep. I hope to bring a good face, again, to the county Republican party, especially after the conflicts with Comissioner David Gardner," he said. Herbert said that priority number one on his agenda is the fiscal budget and "preparing for the future." Cannon agreed. "I thought it would be terrible if a Democrat ran Utah County. This area is the most conservative in the country," he said. Cannon added that if local government spent fiscal funds wisely that a four-percent tax cut could be implemented. "If we didn't spend the surplus, we could help education. I expect that this year more will be done for UVSC," Cannon said. Education and balance of power are two issues Bill Wright, State Senate District 17-elect, plans to tackle. "We need to keep pur moral compasses in tact and prosper," Wright said.

By CLARKE CALDWELL OF THE NETXNEWS STAFF Dave Bateman and Ben Zimmer, both BYU students, and UVSC student Amanda Webb launched a new Web site almost two weeks ago designed to assist communications lines to LDS missionaries serving in third-world countries. The Web site, DearElder.com is a free service to all. To use DearElder.com, the only information required to enter while using the Web site is the name of the missionary and the mission. Once the letter is typed and submitted, it is sent to Bateman and Zimmer, who print the letter onto paper, stamp it, and take it to the local pouch in Provo. "All you need to know is the name of the missionary and the the mission and you're good to go," Zimmer explained. "We print the letter and mail it that day." Bateman, an information systems major from Billings, Montana, developed the idea after viewing other missionary Web sites and recognizing the opportunity to help missions who receive mail through a pouch. According to Bateman, using the website is cheaper and faster. "Their mailing systems are inefficient. Pouches are sent priority to ensure that people get their letters, and we're taping into that resource," he said. "We get the letters into the pouch faster because we're closer. It speeds things up, it's easier and it's cheaper." "It saves the hassle more than anything," added Zimmer, an English major from Port Orchard, Washington.

Covey was here as part of an "Excellence through Education" series of speakers hosted by ASUVSC. The session was free to any and all. Its purpose was for students and others who have never heard him to listen and learn and to pave, for the desired students, a path to college success and life fulfillment. "I'm going to focus on 4 attributes if students will cultivate in their life at school and after school it will bring them to great success," Covey said before the speech, "The 4 attributes deal with body, mind, heart, and spirit, the four parts of our nature." The four parts of human nature each possess an intelligence within.

The ProfessorThe Professor (1857) was Charlotte Bront's first and least regarded novel, rejected by all publishers during her lifetime and published posthumously by her widower A. B. Nicholls. Charlotte herself defended the novel passionately. "I said to myself that my hero should work his way through life as I had seen real living men work theirs -- that he should never get a shilling he had not earned." Indeed, William Crimsworth, the hero, is the self-made master of all his life's ambiguous fortune, including his career as a professor in Brussels, and his true love. Whatever the comparisons to Charlotte Bront's other, more popular novels, The Professor deserves a closer examination and a new reader perspective. |
