If defenses do win championships, then the two teams atop this week's Sporting News' NFL power rankings should be in really good shape.Start Slideshow
— Kansas City has the stingiest scoring defense (11.6 per game allowed) in the NFL, and Seattle is third (16.6).
— Seattle is No. 2 in total defense, and Kansas City is No. 5.
— Kansas City is tops is sacks (35) with the No. 3 pass defense, while Seattle is tied for fourth (23) and No. 2.
All those numbers add up to No. 1 and No. 2, with one big fat zero determining who takes away Denver's old spot atop Week 8's NFL Power Rankings.

Last week: 2Next
Why they're here: Their sack attack woke up in the second half to dominate again at Arrowhead and make it a frustrating close loss for the Texans and first-time QB starter Case Keenum.
How they move down: If their offense keeps stalling beyond Jamaal Charles' and Alex Smith's running. At some point their wide receivers will need to make a big impact to maintain their edge atop the AFC.
What's next: vs. Browns, another team their defense should pound.
TUCKER: Defense key to Chiefs' 7-0 record

Last week: 4Next
Why they're here: The Seahawks used a New Orleans' bye to take sole possession of the NFC pole position with a dominant road victory at Arizona where they made life miserable for the entire Cardinals' offense.
How they move up: With a Chiefs' slip-up, Seattle will be right back where it started to begin the season, as Sporting News' No. 1 team and Super Bowl favorite. It doesn't get much of challenge until Week 13, post bye at home vs. New Orleans.
How they move down: They need to avoid starting slowly, especially on the road and out of their West Coast element. It's the one thing that would set up a big upset.
What's next: at Rams, where they get to tee off on Kellen Clemens in prime time, too.
MORE: Week 7 images
FANTASY: Percy Harvin fine pickup
Last week: 1Next
Why they're here: The Broncos suffered their first loss against Peyton Manning's old team, the Colts, who worked over Manning and his receivers enough to make sure Andrew Luck and their offense didn't give up the lead. How they move up: The key upcoming games for them are in the AFC West, as they'll be tested by both the Chargers (road) and Chiefs (home) after a Week 9 bye. That can boost their standing in the entire AFC.
How they move down: If there are lingering effects of Manning getting rattled, and the defense just keeps getting gashed. It's a dangerous combination that can turn a special season into a major spoiler.
What's next: vs. Redskins, a defense Peyton should pick apart.

Last week: 3Next
Why they're here: The Saints enjoyed a well-timed midseason bye to heal up Jimmy Graham and other key players. It also helped them work extra hard to recover from their tough first loss at New England in Week 6.
How they move up: Sure, an improved defense has been critical, but New Orleans needs to deliver some style points in the form of actual big points from the offense. It should be in even greater attack mode down the stretch.
How they move down: Following a trickier than it looks matchup vs. former Saints assistant Doug Marrone's Bills, the Saints have bigger traps looming with the above .500 Jets, Cowboys and 49ers.
MORE: NFL's Most Beloved players
MORE: New Super Bowl odds
What's next: vs. Bills, where Sean Payton will glad-hand Marrone before Drew Brees rips Buffalo's overmatched secondary.
Last week: 9Next
Why they're here: The Colts have a knack of playing with the big boys, don't they? The Broncos, Seahawks and 49ers make for an impressive resume of wins. As well as Chuck Pagano's staff did without him, he's showing that he's a pretty darn good coach of the year candidate himself.
How they move up: It's time to see some consistency from the Colts, as the Dolphins and Chargers losses were ugly for Andrew Luck. Now that they have done some good interdivision damage, the post-bye focus should be running away with the AFC South. They will need to do it without wide receiver Reggie Wayne, however.
How they move down: Let the Wayne injury and Trent Richardson's inconsistency drag down Luck. He is good enough to make it work with a reshuffled supporting cast.
What's next: at Texans, where they will try to bury the reigning South champions.
MORE: Luck steals Manning's moment -
Last week: 6Next
Why they're here: The 49ers got tripped by the Seahawks and Colts early, but have gotten on a roll as their schedule has opened up a bit. The Titans beatdown was just the latest.
How they move up: They will need to be in a holding pattern, with Jacksonville, a bye and Carolina. It should get them building great momentum for a home battle with New Orleans in Week 11.
How they move down: Now that Colin Kaepernick has been let loose as a runner to open up his passing game, they can't hold him back. This is about the time he went off as an elite playmaker in Year 2.
What's next: at Jaguars, in London, where there should be plenty more Kaepernicking across the pond.
MORE: Week 7's Must-see images
Last week: 10Next
Why they're here: The Bengals are becoming that dangerous floater in an overall weak AFC as the Chiefs, Broncos and Colts have gotten more attention. Their gritty, last-second road wins at Buffalo and Detroit should be huge confidence boosts for a young roster.
How they move up: Keep the Red Rifle of Andy Dalton firing on all cylinders. It's taken a while, but Dalton is red-hot working with his bevy of diverse targets. He's quietly rising up the QB charts again.
How they move down: Cincinnati should remember how it got its groove down the stretch in 2012, and not let up against a slew of middle-of-the-road wild-card contenders coming up on the schedule.
What's next: vs. Jets, when they will need to air it out with Dalton again to win.
LINEMAKERS: Bengals' Super Bowl odds improve -
Last week: 7Next
Why they're here: Aaron Rodgers can pretty much sizzle throwing to anybody, can't he? Enter Jarrett Boykin into the explosive passing game mix, and as usual, Eddie Lacy was ready to pound away on the Browns. Even without Jermichael Finley, the next man up should keep their offense rolling.
How they move up: Rodgers needed the Cleveland performance to break out of a minislump by his lofty standards, and getting a string of division games should get his juices flowing so we keep seeing his old elite self.
How they move down: The defense still has some leaks without Clay Matthews, but they're doing a better job of plugging them. They need to stay strong against the run with some explosive backs on the horizon (Adrian Peterson, Matt Forte, LeSean McCoy).
What's next: at Vikings, where they'll seek some revenge from the 2012 season finale.
MORE: Jermichael Finley could be placed on IR
TUCKER: Unheralded WRs step up for Packers
Last week: 5Next
Why they're here: The Patriots struggled to find defensive answers when they needed them without their big three (Vince Wilfork, Jerod Mayo, Aqib Talib) in blowing a big road lead on the Jets, before the ill-fated overtime push.
How they move up: The good news is, Rob Gronkowski looked good in his return, and the defense still managed to apply some strong edge pressure. As they work to get healthier where they can (a Week 10 bye helps), it's nice to have two home games.
How they move down: If they don't just unleash Tom Brady. It's understandable that everything in his receiving corps isn't there, but now that Gronk is there to create matchup issues, they need to be more aggressive downfield with No. 12.
What's next: at Dolphins, when they can re-establish their hold on the AFC East.
TUCKER: Did Jets tip refs off?
TUCKER: How a small detail can ruin an outcome
Last week: 12Next
Why they're here: The Cowboys broke through with a pair of well rounded division performances (over Washington and Philadelphia) to take midseason control of the NFC East. Tony Romo has cooled off a bit, but the defense has come through, even with DeMarcus Ware banged up.
How they move up: They have been up and down, but their losses are all to AFC West teams (Denver, San Diego, Kansas City). Now they'll go to work on staying perfect in NFC play, where some upcoming games (Detroit, New Orleans) can boost their resume.
How they move down: If they get away from at least committing to the run a little more, even with DeMarco Murray on the shelf. Romo needs the semblance of balance to take some pressure off him.
What's next: at Lions, where Dez Bryant can show us whether he's really Megatron-like.
MORE: Top Fantasy Pickups
Last week: 11Next
Why they're here: They played the better AFC version of themselves in the Bengals to a draw for most of the game, until they couldn't quite finish, which is a familiar problem from their non-playoff 2012 season. Let's remember three of their wins are against Cleveland, Minnesota and Washington.
How they move up: Deliver in another tough NFC matchup at home (Dallas), like they did with their first one (Chicago).
How they move down: Keep giving up big plays and being run on in key situations to negate all the good things gunslinging Matt Stafford is starting to do with the offense.
What's next: vs. Cowboys, as Calvin Johnson tries to split more triple teams.
Last week: 8Next
Why they're here: While the worry looks like it should be more about losing Jay Cutler from the offense, having an already struggling defense without Lance Briggs is the much larger concern. The big takeaways are being replaced by the big yardage allowed (see Washington).
How they move up: The schedule helped them as Cutler and Briggs can now miss one fewer game. The bye is also valuable to better prepare Josh McCown, who played well in relief, for top QB duty. Their scoring can keep them afloat sans Cutler.
How they move down: If they don't shore up some major fundamental issues in the defense, as the lack of pass rush is exposing an undisciplined back seven. Someone must raise their game and lead with Briggs out and Charles Tillman hurting.
What's next: at Packers, where they will hope to improve their NFC North chances.
WATCH: Devin Hester's amazing 81-yard return
Last week: 16Next
Why they're here: The Chargers finally managed to string together two wins, and a talented defense is looking much improved. They avoided falling into the long-distance trap at Jacksonville, as Philip Rivers stayed hot and their running game kept churning to show their best balanced offense of the season.
How they move up: Rivers is known to be streaky, and when he's this way for an extended period, a bye may not be as welcome. On the bright side, it will mean better coaching and health to help him pick up where he left off.
How they move down: The pass defense still has some big cracks on the back end without Dwight Freeney leading the edge rush. They need to fix those fast with Robert Griffin III and Peyton Manning awaiting them.
What's next: at Redskins, where they'll be back in East Coast time after down time.
MORE: Must-see images
Last week: 20Next
Why they're here: Rookie QB Geno Smith was not rattled despite a pick-six and sacks from the Patriots, and hung in there at home. He leaned on his running game and defense until the Jets could pull off the overtime shocker.
How they move up: The Jets have seen Smith's confidence, arm and athleticism work at a high level at both home (New England) and road (Atlanta) in challenging environments. For them to be more than a .500 team and push for the AFC's second wild-card, they need to keep running the ball well and set him up for more consistent success.
How they move down: Their defense is nasty against the run, and has a good cornerback, Antonio Cromartie. But it's a bit leaky against the pass, especially with teams that can stretch the field with multiple targets.
What's next: at Bengals, where Smith will see a lot more front-four pressure.
MORE: Patriots costly mistake meant win for Jets
Last week: 15Next
Why they're here: The Dolphins have had a habit of playing a lot of close games that stems from being all over the place offensively and defensively. See quarterback Ryan Tannehill who overcame an awful start to rebound big, only to fall short at the end against the Bills.
How they move up: Keep protecting Tannehill better as they did vs. Buffalo's good pass rush, and maybe Bryant McKinnie will give their offensive line a needed spark. It also helps if they string together a stronger running game to help him, too.
How they move down: The Dolphins have been good against the downfield pass, but tight ends and running backs give them trouble underneath as they have been banged up at linebacker. They need to be careful about it being exploited too much.
What's next: at Patriots, with a chance to get closer to the lead in a muddled AFC East.
MORE: Dolphins trade for Bryant McKinnie
TUCKER: Poor technique costs Clabo, Dolphins
Last week: 13Next
Why they're here: The Super Bowl champs have never been below .500 seven games into a season with John Harbaugh as coach and Joe Flacco at quarterback. It's got to sting more that it happened after a tight loss at AFC North archrival Pittsburgh.
How they move up: The Ravens need to find both their running stability and big passes, and the problem has been disappointing line play. There's nothing wrong with their defense, which has kept them in every game except Denver.
How they move down: If they don't get speedy wide receiver Torrey Smith going again to stretch the field and better open up some other offense for Flacco and Ray Rice.
What's next: at Browns, when they can bounce back post bye in Week 9.
MORE: Ravens trade Bryant McKinnie to Dolphins
Last week: 14Next
Why they're here: Michael Vick, Nick Foles and now back to Vick. The Eagles fell to 0-3 at home in contrast to 3-1 on the road after their lifeless offensive performance against Dallas, leaving with another injured QB and Chip Kelly going back to the drawing board.
How they move up: Foles sparked the offense for two games before losing it and getting knocked out, and it gives the hamstrung Vick a chance to try his left hand again. Vick needs to be smarter and more efficient as a passer because Kelly should try to limit his running.
How they move down: If their defense has a setback against several more high-powered passing games ahead. It was gritty against Dallas, but still eventually wore down.
What's next: vs. Giants, in a rematch of two disappointing NFC East rivals.
MORE: Michael Vick starting for Eagles
MORE: Kelly's offense more nightmare than dream
Last week: 25Next
Why they're here: The Bills keep finding a way to score 20-plus points even with EJ Manuel out and C.J. Spiller about to break down with his bad ankles. Their defense keeps putting them in position to steal some close ones with field goals, as they did again in Miami.
How they move up: Their defense has taken over with a ton of sacks and takeaways when they're winning, making up for a lot of injury issues. If they can start putting together complete games without lapses, it's the type of unit that can carry them a bit.
How they move down: If they lose their offensive explosiveness without Manuel's arm and Spiller's legs. There's a lot on Lewis to grind out long drives to put up points.
What's next: at Saints, a difficult NFC opponent they unfortunately draw after a bye.
MORE: NFL's Most Beloved Players of all-time
Last week: 23Next
Why they're here: The Panthers have surged back to .500 as an early bye helped them change the outlook of what began as a bleak season. Their crushing of the Rams made it three-for-three in dominant defensive performances in their victory.
How they move up: Keep Cam Newton in a groove. He's gotten back into a rhythm with multiple receivers, and there's always his running threat. For a change, he's playing very well while Carolina has something to play for, instead of after the fact.
How they move down: If they can't keep up the fight in the NFC South, as a scheduling quirk has meant they have yet to play any division games.
What's next: at Buccaneers, a Thursday affair against a team that swept them in 2012.
MORE: Steve Smith has choice words for Janoris Jenkins
Last week: 17Next
Why they're here: The Browns have stumbled twice with Brandon Weeden back as their starting quarterback against the AFC North, losing worse at Green Bay than they did vs. Detroit.
How they move up: Whoever the quarterback is, Josh Gordon and Jordan Cameron need to be involved as playmakers as much as possible. Given there's little pop in the running game, their speed/athleticism combo is Cleveland's only offensive hope.
How they move down: They really can't stick with Weeden much longer, and the lack of long drives is beginning to take it toll on the defense. It's pretty good against the run, but stopping the pass becomes a greater question mark with each passing week.
What's next: at Chiefs, where the struggles to move the ball will come to an ugly head.
MORE: Brandon Weeden on the bubble—again
Last week: 19Next
Why they're here: Jake Locker and Chris Johnson woke up their offense a little too late against San Francisco, and their aggressive defense struggled against a running quarterback who got the ball out of trouble quickly.
How they move up: Now that Locker is back in the mix, toughing it out, they can't limit him. Their receiving corps is better than it looks, and they need to be more aggressive offensively after the bye.
How they move down: Try to go back to being a run-heavy, more conservative team now that Johnson and Shonn Greene are healthy together. Their defense isn't that good to just play control, as they found out against the 49ers.
What's next: at Rams in Week 9, against former long-time Titans coach Jeff Fisher.
MORE: Titans' owner Bud Adams' legacy
Last week: 27Next
Why they're here: The Steelers have won two tough defensive games back-to-back against the Jets and Ravens. As we've seen in the past, until Ben Roethlisberger and Mike Tomlin have their team eliminated from contention, they always will be a threat, regardless of record.
How they move up: Finally, Tomlin has seen the running game going like he envisioned, and much of the credit goes to rookie back Le'Veon Bell. He is better at making the most out of every block, and up front, David DeCastro has looked the part of an elite guard.
How they move down: Their defense has gotten some sacks and takeaways in recent weeks, a big change from early, but there's still something off about their ability to contain opponents in the red zone.
What's next: at Raiders, a typical trap game in the Black Hole for them.
MORE: NFL's Most Beloved players
Last week: 26Next
Why they're here: The Falcons had time to reshuffle their lineup during the bye and adapt to their injuries, and showed just that as backups turned starters Harry Douglas and Jacquizz Rodgers helped Matt Ryan in lifting them to a much-needed home win over Tampa Bay.
How they move up: Keep playing aggressive defense. They need to start forcing mistakes from the opposition, and that means forcing the issue with consistent attack mode. Going man with their pass coverage and rush is no longer a luxury they have.
How they move down: If they can't keep Tony Gonzalez a big factor as the new ultimate center of defenses' attention. Fortunately, their next opponent, Arizona, has been gashed by tight ends.
What's next: at Cardinals, where they hope the new-look offense will keep from drying up fast.
MORE: Week 7's must-see images
TUCKER: Unheralded WRs step up for Falcons
Last week: 28Next
Why they're here: Robert Griffin III is doing the running and passing we loved from his rookie season, and the knee has become less of an issue. The Bears found that out as he made all the right decisions in a Week 7 shootout win.
How they move up: If they can get any kind of defensive impact with their blitzing ways. That was the underrated part of their 2012 turnaound, and we saw that just one play (see the Brian Orakpo pick six) can make the slightest difference to help the offense.
How they move down: They really get into the meat of their schedule, as even the remaining sub-.500 opponents, Vikings, Eagles, Giants and Falcons can give their defense considerable problems.
What's next: at Broncos, where Mike Shanahan will return to try to trump John Elway and Peyton Manning with RG3.
Last week: 18Next
Why they're here: They fought hard to steal a tight, defensive struggle in Kansas City with confident play from Case Keenum, but once again, little mistakes with ball/pass protection on top of more injuries (Arian Foster, Brian Cushing) did them in.
How they move up: The Texans have a busy bye to heal up in some areas and work hard at fixing all the things they have turned them from division champ to playoff long shot. They're still talented enough to get on a roll.
How they move down: As good as Keenum looked, the offense was more limited than Matt Schaub at his best. Either they need to let Keenum loose with an expansive playbook, or hope that a healthy Schaub can return to more efficient, explosive form.
What's next: vs. Colts in Week 9, a make or break opportunity against the current AFC South favorites.
MORE: Bum Phillips, Bud Adams leave Houston legacy -
Last week: 24Next
Why they're here: The Raiders slid just a tad as some teams behind them did some good work during their bye. Coming out of it, they're looking at a big challenge to inch back into contention in a tough division where everyone else is a combined 17-4.
How they move up: It's on Terrelle Pryor to build on his strong first half and come out ready to carry the team like he thinks he can, both running and passing. He's the A factor.
How they move down: If they can't better protect Pryor with both line play and someone else to stay healthy and deliver in the running game. Ideally, they need to come through with that kind of ball control to shield their defense, too.
What's next: vs. Steelers, in a classic throwback AFC matchup.
Last week: 22Next
Why they're here: The Cardinals' offense got overmatched by Seattle, another defense with physical corners and a deep pass rush, at home last Thursday night. When Carson Palmer to Larry Fitzgerald isn't working, little else does.
How they move up: They have had extended time to make some adjustments to their offense. Given how Palmer has little time to throw and how teams look to bottle up Fitzgerald first, they need to get both running back Andre Ellington and tight end Rob Housler a lot more involved.
How they move down: If their defense gets frustrated with the offense putting them on the field too long and not in position to tee off with the pass rush. It's a one-sided team hoping for just a little more pop to get back to and stay above .500.
What's next: vs. Falcons, a game for the birds that looks a lot more winnable than it was.
Last week: 21Next
Why they're here: The Rams got shellshocked in Carolina, as the Panthers defense both shut them down and knocked out Sam Bradford for the rest of 2013. Bradford had kept them in games even when their defense was getting rolled by the run and frustrated by the pass, both on display last Sunday.
How they move up: Get some kind of spark, either from backup quarterback Kellen Clemens, or from the fact that the St. Louis Cardinals are back in the World Series in their own backyard. Otherwise, it's going to be tough avoiding a freefall.
How they move down: Clemens plays like we expect Clemens to play, especially facing a brutal schedule of swarming defenses.
What's next: vs. Seahawks, when Clemens will face the glare of Monday night lights while the Cardinals could be playing Game 5 right down the street.
MORE: Sam Bradford tears ACL, done for the year
Last week: 32Next
Why they're here: The Giants didn't exactly play lights out in getting their elusive first victory on Monday night, but it's true their defense shut down Adrian Peterson and didn't give up any points. That was a key development, as was the weird spark provided by newcomer Peyton Hillis with not-so dazzling running or receiving.
How they move up: Have the defense build on that performance, as Jason Pierre-Paul had a little more pep in his step and the pass defenders were rangier in coverage and after the catch. They need to take more of the burden with the offense struggling.
How they move down: If they can't get someone other than Victor Cruz to be reliable for Eli Manning. With Hakeem Nicks, Rueben Randle and Brandon Myers, there should be more guys to move the chains and get into the end zone.
What's next: at Eagles, where they will try to avenge a home loss to Michael Vick.
MORE: At last, Giants win a game
Last week: 29Next
Why they're here: Their decision to trot out Josh Freeman early as their starting quarterback backfired in the worst possible way. He was awful and not ready against the Giants, and dragged his receivers and Adrian Peterson down with the ship.
How they move up: Remember they have Peterson in the backfield and not try to force this new downfield passing identity just because they have some speed receivers. At least Christian Ponder knew to feed Peterson often and rely much on tight end Kyle Rudolph.
How they move down: If they can't restore the defensive help they gave to the quarterback last year, their quarterback decision just won't matter. Their talent up front shouldn't be setting them up to be ripped by the run and getting torched on backend.
What's next: vs. Packers on Sunday night, where their issues will be hung out to dry again in prime time.
MORE: Josh Freeman struggles in Vikings' debut
Last week: 30Next
Why they're here: The Buccaneers should be pleased with the way rookie quarterback Mike Glennon has improved the past two weeks, even if there's a long way to go with his progress. Unfortunately, as much as they keep stuffing the run and have a good secondary, they still fell apart vs. the pass in Atlanta.
How they move up: Get a spark from another Mike, running back James, who might need to step in for Doug Martin for a while. They keep knocking on the door for a win, and if the all-around discipline doesn't come under Greg Schiano soon, Schiano will be out the door.
How they move down: There have been a lot of frustrating, ill-timed breakdowns for a team that, on the surface, is pretty talented. If the players decide to fold under Schiano like it happened under Raheem Morris, they'll surpass Jacksonville as the NFL's true Florida embarrassment.
What's next: vs. Panthers, when they will hope a short week won't turn into another long one.
Last week: 31
Why they're here: The Jaguars put up their dukes in Denver, so it had to be disappointing how they came out flat at home against San Diego and were never really competitive in a more lopsided loss. With the unquestioned worst record, they're back in the worst spot (or best for the draft).
How they move up: Given how bad the Buccaneers and Vikings have been, just scratching out a win somewhere can push them out of the cellar. It likely won't happen until after their Week 9 bye.
What's next: vs. 49ers in London, where they will try hard to change their fortunes overseas against the much farther traveling reigning NFC champions.

Thursday, June 27, 2013
After an extensive interview process, Audio Visual Services has promoted the following individuals to the position of Operations Manager for the 2013-2014 school year.

Steward and Sullivan are thrilled to take on the role of Operations Managers.
"I am immensely excited for this opportunity. I relish any chance to learn more about this department and grow professionally," said Steward.
Sullivan added, "I feel very honored to have been offered the Operations Manager position. I have been thinking about this position since my first semester joining AV in spring 2011.

CL-EC2 is a Common Lisp library for communicating with Amazon's EC2 and CloudWatch Query APIs. It was originally written as a foundation for Saffron Technology's Lisp-based Sierra management environment. As such, CL-EC2 does not implement the entire EC2 Query API, but rather a fairly large subset that may be used to manipulate/query images, instances, volumes, snapshots, etc. In other words, most of the useful Query API is present, at least from my perspective, but more should be included to finish off the entire API.
So far, CL-EC2 has only been tested on SBCL (I use version 1.0.30). There is a minor implementation dependency (for retrieving environment variables) that has been abstracted, so porting CL-EC2 itself should be very easy.
CL-EC2 is released under an MIT-style license.

Next steps after boosting a paladin tank to 90, part 2
It's always weird coming to the end of an expansion and seeing the road before you suddenly much shorter than you remember it was the last time you gave it a serious look. Very soon things will radically change -- the gear that made us gods will be obsolete, health pools will be laid low, and the stats that we had come to loathe will be no more. As they say, all good things must come to an end. Pandaria is no different.
This is a path we've walked before, in the twilight of every expansion. As the content winds down in its own interminable fashion, and we run that end raid for the umpteenth time, we find solace in trying new experiences through the prism of alts. As I discussed in last week's post, with the advent of the boosting feature, many folks will be trying out paladin tanks for the first time -- especially since they now have the advantage of skipping the (painful) journey of leveling a tank entirely. This guide is for them.

Four German automotive firms are embarking on a three-year collaborative research project to see if they can make vehicle diagnostics more like science than art.
Audi, Continental, Infineon, and ASIC/ASSP developer ZMD estimate that up to 40 percent of vehicle electronics errors can't be precisely diagnosed, which isn't a huge surprise considering that cars these days contain 80-something electronic control units (ECUs), on average.
Lacking the ability to pinpoint causes of failures, repair shops employ trial and error techniques, swapping out various components until they hit on the right combination. That's really not fun for anyone except listeners to NPR's "Car Talk," who are grateful that the problems discussed belong to someone other than them. Back and forth repair trips are costly, and they wreak havoc on customer loyalty.
So it's time for project DIANA, which consortium members say is a German acronym that translates as "end-to-end diagnostic capabilities in semiconductor components and systems for analyzing persistent and sporadic errors in automobiles." I'll take their word for it.
The four project partners will be assisted by several German research organizations and universities, including the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits in Dresden, the University of the Federal Armed Forces in Munich, and the Universities of Cottbus, Erlangen-Nuremberg, and Stuttgart.
Germany's Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) is ponying up some €4.8 million to support the project as part of the German government's high-tech strategy and Information and Communications Technology 2020 program (IKT 2020), for which automobiles and mobility are key areas of emphasis. One of the program's goals is to significantly improve the robustness of automotive electronics.
With Infineon taking the lead and employing processes developed in its Automotive Excellence Program, the four partners will work on ways to make error detection more precise and faults easier to rectify for automakers and repair shops alike. They say their efforts will create a basis for quicker and more efficient identification and correction of electronics faults. Research outcomes will be incorporated into automotive electronics products and could help to ensure that cars are more reliable, require fewer trips to the repair shop, and can be repaired more efficiently.
And if the test routines prove a success in motor vehicles, they can be employed in other engineering application areas where safety is critical.

ST. PETERS, Mo. (KMOV.com) – Everyone has bills they hate to pay, but every year hundreds of thousands of people get their bills wiped out by filing bankruptcy.
For some, bankruptcy is the only option, especially in cases with massive medical debts. But what about people who rack up big bills on everything from fancy department stores to jewelry.
A St. Peters woman says her former tenants used bankruptcy like it is going out of style. It turns out bankruptcy is very much in style these days.
Landlord Theresa Kortkamp says her former tenants owe her almost $12,000. For years those tenants, Ryan and Brandy, rented one of Kortkamp's properties.
She said they left the house a disaster. They moved out and moved into a new place, renting a home valued at $330,000. They then filed bankruptcy again.
Federal records show Ryan filed for bankruptcy four times and Brandy filed three times.
Their most recent case lists all kinds of creditors: The cable bill, utilities, golf discount, even $1,300 worth of maid service. But Ryan and Brandy used to be married to other people. They also filed bankruptcies during those marriages.
The paper trail starts in 1995 when both of them filed their first bankruptcy. Brandy's first bankruptcy listed $22,000 in liabilities, $4,500 at Famous Barr and debts to a tanning salon.
Ryan's first bankruptcy listed a health club, Nordstrom, and JC Penny, to name a few.
A few years later, Brandy and her ex-husband listed $184,000 in debt: $600 at a jewelry store, a home, $5,000 to a furniture store and a bad check for $156 to Papa John's. According to bankruptcy records Brandy's debt was wiped out again.
About the same time, Ryan and his ex-wife were back in bankruptcy too: a couple fitness clubs, an apartment complex, martial arts, even a bad check for $75 at Imos. They filed a plan to repay some of the debt, then fell behind and again re-filed. They got a $32,000 debt wiped clean.
Bankruptcy expert David Lander is an attorney at Greensfelder in St. Louis. He says debts can only be wiped clean every eight years thanks to congressional reform back in 2005, and despite some abuse, there are societal benefits.
"If somebody gets a bankruptcy discharge they can start spending again. If people are indebted they don't have the capacity to borrow or spend. That's not good for the economy," said Lander.
In 2011, close to 400,000 people nationwide filed what's known as Chapter 13 bankruptcy. More than a quarter, around 28 percent, had filed before in the last eight years.
Every time someone files bankruptcy, people like Kortkamp, a single mother of three trying to make ends meet, gets hurt.
Even Ryan and Brandy admit in their filing they owe Kortkamp $8,500.
Kortkamp says they originally promised to pay her once Brandy's disability claim got approved. But when News 4 Investigator Chris Nagus showed up to the home Ryan and Brandy are now renting, Brandy said she did not owe Kortkamp a dime.
"I don't want to give her (Kortkamp) the time of day. She's not important to me. I'll continue to ignore her," said Brandy.
In emails, Ryan and Brandy tell News 4 they had extenuating circumstances with ex-spouses and had medical debt. But when you add up all the bankruptcy claims over the years, the medical debt only totals $12,000, just three percent of the $340,000 in debt they have listed in all their bankruptcies.
In a bizarre twist, on November 19, Ryan and Brandy filed a motion to dismiss their latest bankruptcy case.
Note: News 4 decided not to give the last name of Ryan and Brandy due to the fact that they have not broken the law. They were used as an example and to showcase a systemic problem in the U.S. bankruptcy court system.

Pleural fluid culture is a test that examines a sample of fluid that has collected in the pleural space to see if you have an infection. The pleural space is the area between the lining of the outside of the lungs (pleura) and the wall of the chest. When fluid collects in the pleural space, the condition is called pleural effusion .
Culture - pleural fluid
A procedure called thoracentesis is used to get a sample of pleural fluid. The sample is sent to a laboratory and examined under a microscope for signs of infection. The sample is also placed in a special dish (culture). It is then watched to see if bacteria or any other germs grow.
No special preparation is needed before the test. A chest x-ray will be performed before and after the test.
Do not cough, breathe deeply, or move during the test to avoid injury to the lung.
For thoracentesis, you sit on the edge of a chair or bed with your head and arms resting on a table. The health care provider cleans the skin around the insertion site. Numbing medicine (anesthetic) is injected into the skin.
A needle is placed through the skin and muscles of the chest wall into the space around the lungs, called the pleural space. As fluid drains into a collection bottle, you may cough a bit. This is because your lung re-expands to fill the space where fluid had been. This sensation lasts for a few hours after the test.
During the test, tell your health care provider if you have sharp chest pain or shortness of breath.
Your doctor may order this test if you have signs of a certain infection or if a chest x-ray or CT scan of the chest shows you have too much fluid in space around the lungs.
A normal result means no bacteria or fungi were seen in the test sample.
A normal value is no growth of any bacteria. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
Abnormal results may indicate:
Risks of thoracentesis are:

M'Hamsa Hand-rolled Couscous - 500g
Country of Origin: Tunisia
Region: Maghreb
City / Village: Tebourba
For too many years, we've been stuck with sub-par imitations of the real-deal couscous... until we found M'Hamsa couscous. Semolina flour is hand-rolled with olive oil and salt into large grains and left to dry in the hot Tunisian sun. These grains are the pefect size for a variety of salads both cold and hot as well as a simple side with a touch of olive oil and salt.
This grain is super easy to prepare - just add the couscous to boiling water (1 cup couscous to 1 1/2 cups water), cover and bring back to a boil, then turn off the heat. Seven to ten minutes later, it will be done.

What an amazingly crappy call, but it pleases me to no end that it went against the Wings.
Puck was in the net on the original shot about 3-5 seconds ahead of the whistle. Goal judge didn't see it, ref didn't see it, he blows the play dead. Even though every replay shows the puck is clearly and cleanly in the net well ahead of the whistle sounding, he says he had intent to blow the whistle, thereby nullifying the goal. I just assumed that if a replay showed it was a goal, it was a goal. I had no idea about this "intent to blow whistle" rule.

Secondary systemic amyloidosis is a disorder in which abnormal proteins build up in tissues and organs. Clumps of the abnormal proteins are called amyloid deposits.
Secondary means it occurs because of another disease or situation. For example, this condition usually occurs as a result of chronic infection or chronic inflammatory disease. Primary amyloidosis means there is no disease that is causing the condition.
Systemic means that the disease affects the entire body.
Amyloidosis - secondary systemic
The exact cause of amyloidosis is unknown. You are more likely to develop secondary systemic amyloidosis if you have a long-term infection or inflammation.
This condition may occur with:
The symptoms of secondary systemic amyloidosis depend on which body tissue is affected by the protein deposits. These deposits damage normal tissues, leading to the symptoms or signs of this illness:
Tests that may be done include:
The condition that is causing the amyloidosis should be treated. Some persons may need a bone marrow or stem cell transplant. There is no specific treatment for amyloidosis itself.
How well a person does depends on which organs are affected and whether the disease that is causing it can be controlled. If the disease involves the heart and kidneys, it may lead to organ failure and death.
Call your health care provider if you have symptoms of this condition. The following are serious symptoms that need prompt medical attention:
If you have a disease that is known to increase your risk of this condition, make sure you get it treated. This may help prevent amyloidosis.

5 Amazing in ear phonesthebettertwin | 15/10/2008 | See all thebettertwin's reviews (1)I didn't think these would be that much better than the 630 model which produces great sounds and given that the specs for them (frequency range etc) are practically the same. However, these are even better, producing very deep bass sounds and crystal clear highs. They feel as comfortable, if not more so than the 630, look really good. Have about an inch longer than the 630 cable which was still pretty long. You get all the same as the 630, 3 sizes small medium and large silicon buds but I imagine most will be fine with the medium, the gold plated connector remains; the cable is slightly different but still feels like it will last. Oh and you get a carry pouch which has a pull string and creative label but I don't see who would ever use this.One slight complaint as with the 630's they get tangled a lot but this isn't a big enough issue to knock them down.All in all amazing earphones for a great price would recommend to everyone.
4 Great Headphones, Easy to Breakbillyrohnsen | 08/05/2009 | See all billyrohnsen's reviews (1)These are the best headphones I have owned, particularly in combination with my zen x-fi (which they come bundled with).My only problem is that I go through so many, as the bond between the two halfs of the earpieces is attached only using clips, making it very week. If you drop your mp3 player whilst these are in your ear they will like come apart and the connection will be broken.Here is my advice: as soon as you buy these headphones, carefully prise open the two halfs of both earpieces and add a nice amount of superglue to stop them from breaking.
5 Good Phones, Good valueSmarty196 | 22/05/2009 | See all Smarty196's reviews (1)Well I broke from tradition as I usually favour Sennheiser for their stellar base and clarity (CX300, CX 400 CX500 and PX 100's) I also own Shure and Sony but these little beauts compare favourably with any of them, Straight out of the pack, plugged them in to a trusty Zen Vision M and thought the sound was too harsh on the mids and the boomy base made my eyes pop....but, I realised I had the Zen set up for the CX 500's so unchecked the equaliser settings, knocked off the base boost and bingo! They are superb without any output tweaks on the Zen, and similaly, give great natural sound off my Sony and Cowon D2. Good crisp highs, nice mellow mids and a punchy base. And don't forget that this is straigh from the pack - all phones/speakers improve over use. Only minor down side is the straight in plug - I do prefer the L type. But overall really well pleased - for the money you just can't go wrong. trust me - cos I'm real picky !
5 An improvement on EP 630 sound qualityS162000 | 30/10/2008 | See all S162000's reviews (5)Top 100 PC Reviewer I agree with the other reviewer these are a noticable improvement on the EP 630 earphones. I am a big bass fan and the bass on these is a lot stronger, you can really feel it! These have a lot of range as well, I am using them with my 3 year old Vision M (still the best player ever made) and they're awesome. They come with a pouch and the build quality seems good. I just hope they don't break in one ear like the Ep 630's did, I got through 3 pairs of them in a year!!
4 Great earphones!DaveRUK | 29/04/2009 | See all DaveRUK's reviews (10)Used to own a pair of ep-630s, but after going through 3 or 4 pairs of these I thought I'd try a change (ep-630s are great, and I use my earphones a lot and don't treat them all that well, hence why I get through so many pairs!)I tried a switch to sennheiser cx500 and hated them, far too bassy, silly in-line volume control that broke and not nearly as comfortable as my ep-630s. Do not buy them!Decided I'd try these as they were only 3 quid more than the ep-630 phones, and have to say I really like them! Sound is more spatious, and bass is more responsive without being overpowering. Just as comfortable as the 630s and the construction feels a little more rugged.Not 5 stars because creative are still fitting the straight headphone jacks, not the 90 degree jacks which last so much longer!

ST. LOUIS (KMOV.com) – The St. Louis School District reversed its decision to expel a four-year-old from preschool on Wednesday evening.
The student was originally removed because he had missed too many days of class. His mother came to News 4 and explained, her son had been sick frequently this winter, and had also missed days because she was caring for another son who has cystic fibrosis.
"Very happy with the outcome, although I don't think it had to come to this," said Jackie Woody. "Very sad that Zachary had to go through this and although very pleased he will back in school getting ready for kindergarten it's just something that could have been prevented."

The ^College News Vol. XVII, No. 21 WAYNE AND BRYN MAWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, MAY 6, 1931 Price: 10 Centt Humor Is Subject of League Service Henry Pitney Van Dusen Points Out Saving Influence of Humor in Intellect. DISCUSSION RELEVANT The Rev. Henry Pitney Van Dusen, of Union Theological Seminary, was the speaker at Sunday night chapel, which was held in the music walk of Goodhart. The balcony made a very effective pulpit, and the walk a choir from which the voices sounded excep- tionally well. Since the evening was rather chill and the hillside occupied by the audience truly deserved the title of sloping, Mr. Van Dusen's choice of a subject was an unusually happy one; it concerned the value of humor. Wit, said Mr. Van Dusen, has been considered only as a frivolous recrea- tion by a too intense and moralistic piety. Christ, however, thought other- wise, as is shown in the parable of the "small splinter" in the other fellow's eye as against the "large beam of lumber" in one's own. Socrates and St. Francis also realized the potence of humor, the lack of ,which may be a barrier to the deepest perception of truth. For, as in the case of the little girl who told the solemn Fraternity- hymnists that they were all fools, it explodes the bubble of sophistication and provides the needed touch to our serious psychological isms, thus allow- ing us to see beyond them. The "simple, homely values" of hu- mor are obvious. It releases minds from a "too solid tension," "delivers our eyes from the blinders of self- importance," thus giving us the per- spective finally attained by Maggie's Continued on Page Throe Dr. Herben Explains ttofNew Book Room At long last, some word of explana- tion of the New Book Room is set down. Your reporter, wearied of the querrelous complaints concerning its somewhat scanty array of fiction, even of popular "best sellers," determined to settle the matter for once and for all by begging an interview from Dr. Her- ben. After attempting to smoke the wrong end of one of the new ciga- rettes specially prepared to light with- out a match, and settling ourselves to bombard Dr. Herben with the thou- sand and one arguments against the present composition of the New Book Room, we gradually found ourselves losing ground. In the' first place, "The New Book Room is not a lending library," de- clared Dr. Herben. "If that is what the undergraduates want, they can walk over to the Pike and join the library which is there for that pur- pose." The books we have are either new .acquisitions of the various depart- ments, or are otherwise chosen for their permanent value. The committee is composed of Miss Park, Miss Reed, the English Depart- ment and, ex-officio, the undergraduate body. It meets three or four times a year to go over all the critical reviews. English and American, and each person brings in a group of new works seek- ing approval. Usually there is a very wide duplication. Books are not often taken on hearsay, though sometimes the committee is forced to accept them on faith, and very\arely are ones ac- cepted which are not known to at least a few members. Where there is a serious objection on the part of one member, it is very likely that the book will be abandoned altogether. "I urge Continned on Face Blfbt Jane Addams Receives M.

Little May Day Is Repeated With the Traditionally Unsophisticated Fervor May Pole Dancing and Crowning of Senior May Queen Precede the Scholarship Chapel and Hoop Rolling Festivities on Green. FIFTEEN JUNIORS WIN ACADEMIC RECOGNITION Little May Day seemed to ban sophis- tication from Bryn Mawr campus; even Jupiter lent his approval to the spirit of spontaneity. The sophomores prepared their baskets according to tradition with more enthusiasm, let us say, than painful effort. Although "lazy" lost all its de- grading significance when sung by the earliest risers, the Seniors responded to the familiar enticement of coffee and made haste to dress. Even the ceremony from Roclc Tower could not more than silence for the moment that madness which seemed to begin when they set out to present Miss Park with a May basket. The informal crowning of the May Queen was but a signal for the revelry to go on once more, from the traditional strawberries and chipped beef, the one, two, three hop on the May poles. Charles and Joseph Lamb succeeded for a mo- ment in claiming the attention of many photographers, both amateur and profes- sional; but the gaieties around the May poles were too much for them. Miss Baer would have us believe that the Sen- ior Class can recognize cleverness, al- though they cannot devise it. There is Calendar Friday, May 8�Glee Club presents The Mikado.

From May poles to scholarships has a pleasant sense of variety. It is rather startling to think of hoops being rolled in Goodhart on any other day than the first of May. Miss Park has called it the one irrational day in the college cur- riculum. The Seniors cheered gener- ously, in spite of their carefree hearts of the moment before, for the intellectual achievements-of- their fellow students. There was one irrational jump which the Seniors at least regretted. From the childish pleasures of hoop rolling to the mental stimulus of classes is a long and fatal step, but to be true to Bryn Mawr traditions it must be made.

Gardeners dressed, in white to decorate our gates. Traffic policemen gave their uniforms an extra whisk to come add to the tableau. Pembroke East- ers and Westers lunched in Rockefeller that caterers might have ample time in which to spread forth in their dining room the deposits of many wagons. Only the weather failed to co-operate with the college authorities. It drizzled and gloomed putting tea on Dalton green out of the question. , The occasion for so much pomp, circumstance, love and honor was the presentation to Chicago's Miss Ad- dams of the M. Carey Thomas Prize of $5000 in recognition of eminent achievement. This prize was estab- lished in 1922 by the Alumnae Asso- ciation and has only been awarded once before, in June, 1922, when it was given" to Dr. Thomas. In addition to about 1000 undergraduates, alumnae and friends of the college who were present, the audience included radio listeners, for the entire proceedings were broadcast by the National Broad- casting Company over a nationwide hook-up. The reading of" messages from the heads of three countries and speeches in praise of Miss Addams by Frances Perkins, John Dewey, Carrie Chapman Catt and Grace Abbott preceded the presentation of the prize by President I'ark. Miss Addams was lauded as leader of women, apostle of friendli- ness, pioneer in social progress. Miss Park Presents Award "In behalf of the Committee of Award of the M. Carey Thomas prize and in behalf of. Bryn Mawr College which delightedly offers itself as a background for the festivities of to- day." Dr. Park said, "I have the hondV of welcoming to the exercises con- nected with the giving of the prize first of all Miss Addams herself, then President Emeritus M. Carey Thomas, the speakers of the coming hour, and finally the frieuds-�nd admirers who have come from-far and wide to Bryn Mawr today. In your honor we are swept and garnished, for for us it is a great occasion and one not to recur in a college generation. "The giving of the prize has taken place only once before. When Miss Thomas was about to retire from her thirty-eight, years of deanship and pres- idency at Bryn Mawr the alumnae of the college with others in the college and out who admired Miss Thomas united to give a fund from which now and again a prize of $5000 named in hf r honor should be given to an Amer- ican woman of eminence who, what- ever her profession or her interests or her attainment might be, artjst, states- man, writer, scientist�should possess Continued on Pare Six DEPARTMENT OF BIBLICAL LIT- ERATURE�Cecelia May Sheppard, B.

There will be no course in Play Cantlaaed on Pa�e Threa Working Conditions Physiologically Bad Dr. Winifred Cullis, president of the International Federation of Women, spoke on Monday, April 27, on "The Human Machine at Work." Though Dr. Cullis is primarily a physiologist, she chose a subject which could be connected with any branch of science. Her lecture was based on her experi- ence On the board for the Health of Industrial Workers, and the National Institute of Industrial Psychology. The first of these institutions was ap- pointed during the war by the Medical Research Board to investigate the de- crease in factory output. The investi- gation showed that the workers were exhausted and resulted in the curtail- ment of working hours. The N. I. I. P. sends out men to examine bad working conditions. The investigators do not need to be trained in the industry since they look at the case through what they know to be right or wrong for the human body. Moving pictures have shown how often machines require an unnatural position of the body, a condition that could be so easily corrected it it were only realized. The biggest difficulty in cor- rection is the obstinacy of the laborers. To induce men to sit down in a factory where it is a tradition to stand, or to introduce new picks and brighter lamps in the coal mines, requires in- genuity. Glee Club Presents 'Mikado' This Week Cast Is Well-Chosen for Rep- resentation of Comic Types. MR. WILLOUGHBY LEADS Bad working conditions are based on three physiological principles, ventila- tion, rest and rhythm. Ventilation in- cludes proportion of oxygen and hydro- gen, and movement of air. One can live weeks without food, three or four days without water, but only two min- utes without air unless oxygen has previously stored in the lungs by forced breathing. In everyday life we seldom come near shortage of oxygen except in illnesses such as bronchitis Coattnaed ��� P��� K�nr "Comes a train of little-ladies From scholastic trammels free." Perhaps we are anticipating, but judging from the box office reports, we are not the only ones^ And not without cause: for eight years tthe Glee Club has given an annual production of Gilbert and Sullivan, and there is every reason to believe that the ninth will be as great, if not a greater suc- cess than its predecessors. In the first place, "The Mikado" is the most brilliant work of the joint authors, and probably the most popu- lar. After its first production on March 14, 1885. it ran for 672 per- formances. And although the learned" in England sadly shook their heads over- it, it was not long before a large portion of the world was engaged in recognition and enjoyment. It mi acclaimed in the United States, and in Germany particularly, it was given Continued on Pace Five Faculty Appointments The following; new faculty ap- pointments have been made for the coming year.
