The process depends on whether you're applying as an undergraduate, postgraduate, domestic or international student.
Once you have commenced an application, you can save and return to it later using login details which will be sent to you by email.
Your application will generally need to include all supporting documents, including certified copies of your academic transcript, and any additional requirements of your course. You may also need to demonstrate your English language proficiency if your qualification is from an institution that does not primarily teach in English.
Are you a domestic student?
You are a domestic student if you are: an Australian or New Zealand citizen (including dual citizens), a permanent resident of Australia or a holder of an Australian permanent humanitarian visa.
Select from the options below to find out how to apply.
Further down, you can read information on:
Please note that there have been some changes to the application process. How you apply depends on your qualifications and the course for which you are applying.
In general, prospective domestic undergraduate students apply through the Universities Admission Centre (UAC) for a Commonwealth Supported Place. Refer to the UAC website for key dates.
However, you must apply directly to the University if you are applying for one of the following courses:
Sciences-Po dual degrees (even if you are applying through UAC for other degrees)
Non-award study
Cross-institutional study.
To apply directly to the University, visit Find a Course and search for your course, then click on the "Apply now" button on the course page.
How you apply depends on your qualifications and the course for which you are applying.
Apply through the Universities Admissions Centre (UAC) if you are completing:
Refer to the UAC website for key dates.
Apply directly to the University if you are:
an applicant not covered in the above UAC categories
applying for a Sciences-Po dual degree (even if you are applying through UAC for other degrees).
To apply directly to the University, visit Find a Course and search for your course, then click on the "Apply now" button on the course page.
To find out more about qualifications we accept, visit our Undergraduate Entry Requirements page.
We recommend applying well before the closing date for your course, to ensure you have adequate time to arrange your student visa, flights and accommodation.
A non-refundable application processing fee of A$100 is charged for new prospective students. This fee is waived if you're a sponsored student, or if you are granted an exemption by a University staff member during an office interview or recruitment event.
If you would like to apply through a University approved agent, we have partnered with a range of agents and representatives who can apply to the University and make arrangements on your behalf.
If you are currently enrolled in a bachelor degree at the University of Sydney and intend to transfer to another bachelor degree, how you apply will depend on the course to which you wish to transfer.
For some undergraduate courses within the same faculty you can apply directly to the faculty for an 'allowable course transfer'. Contact your faculty to find out if your preferred course is an allowable course transfer.
For more information on how to apply to transfer visit the transferring courses webpage.
If you are a domestic student currently enrolled in a diploma and wish to transfer to a bachelor degree, you must apply through the Universities Admissions Centre (UAC). Refer to the UAC website for key dates.
Honours is a year of additional study following an undergraduate degree. There are two types:
Entry to honours in your chosen major or discipline usually requires an undergraduate degree with a minimum credit average.
Most faculties accept applicants to honours from other universities, so if you've completed your degree elsewhere, you can still apply to do honours with us (see Changing universities).
Attend an honours information evening with your faculty (usually held in September) to find out more about how they handle the honours application process.
Some courses require you to complete a pre-honours subject as part of your final undergraduate semester, which means you'll need to plan for honours up to one year ahead.
Before the end of your final semester, you should submit your honours thesis topic proposal. However, bear in mind that pre-approval of a particular topic doesn't guarantee entry to your honours program.
To qualify for honours, you will still need to achieve the required grades to ensure a high enough weighted average mark (WAM), and show that you have the ability to conduct high-quality academic research.
To apply, contact your faculty's honours coordinator and lodge your application with the faculty.
See the list of stand-alone honours courses we offer.
To apply, use Find a course to select your honours program, then click the 'apply now' button.
Regardless of whether you're an internal or external honours applicant, there are a few common things you will need to do.
1. Show a strong academic record: You'll need a minimum WAM of 65 to 70 percent. If you're at Sydney, this is automatically checked along with your application, but if you're from another university, your application should include an academic transcript.
2. Prepare a research topic proposal: You'll need to choose a topic, that your faculty considers of academic importance, to study for the entire year. Picking the right topic is crucial to success, so most faculties have an honours coordinator to help you through the process. They may even provide a list of available projects.
In some faculties, you may be required to put together a preliminary topic proposal which, once approved, will be followed by a more detailed research proposal that will form part of your thesis.
3. Find a supervisor: This person is your mentoring academic for the duration of your honours project. They'll help you set goals and deadlines, and provide feedback and advice along the way. To find out about available honours projects contact the honours coordinator in your faculty.
4. Fill in the paperwork: When you're ready to apply, most faculties require you to submit a standard application form with your supporting documents using Sydney Student (if you're already a student here) or Find a course.
Please note a non-refundable application processing fee of A$100 is charged for new prospective students. This fee is waived if you're a sponsored student, or if you are granted an exemption by a University staff member during an office interview or recruitment event.
If you are a domestic student applying for the Juris Doctor at the Sydney Law School, you will apply through the Universities Admissions Centre (UAC).
In every other case, you apply for postgraduate coursework direct to the University, using the 'apply now' option within Find a course to take you to the Sydney Student portal where you apply and upload supporting documents.
Before starting an application, make sure you are familiar with the academic requirements for entry to your chosen course. Some only accept applicants with a related undergraduate degree, and all courses require a minimum grade point average.
If you are an international student, you also need to make sure your undergraduate qualifications are recognised by the University. Contact us for advice.
Once an application has been started, you can save and return to it later using login details that will be sent to you by email.
Most applications to start in Semester 1 close on 31 January. There are some exceptions, such as the Doctor of Medicine and Doctor of Dental Medicine, so check the details at Find a course.
We also have a Semester 2 intake for the majority of our courses, for which the application closing date is 30 June. But, again, there are a few exceptions, so doublecheck the details.
We recommend applying well before the closing dates to ensure the best chance of success, as offers are made on a rolling basis.
The outcome of your application will be emailed to you after it has been assessed by the admissions office and relevant faculty.
Successful applicants will receive an unconditional or conditional offer. Conditional offers will be made firm upon the submission of further documentation. Unconditional offers can be accepted by logging in to Sydney Student.
If you are a domestic student applying for the Juris Doctor at the Sydney Law School, you will apply through the Universities Admissions Centre (UAC). Applications for the health sciences graduate entry masters (GEMS) degrees are now direct entry and no longer through UAC.
Like domestic applicants, you will also apply for postgraduate coursework directly to the University (see above).
But take note of the additional steps in the admissions process, such as applying for a student visa, and paying a deposit before you accept your offer.
A non-refundable application processing fee of A$100 is charged for new prospective students. This fee is waived if you're a sponsored student, or if you are granted an exemption by a University staff member during an office interview or recruitment event.
If you would like to apply through a University approved agent, we have partnered with a range of agents and representatives who can apply to the University and make arrangements on your behalf.
Postgraduate research is also called a 'higher degree by research' (HDR). Degrees within this category include a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), Master of Philosophy (MPhil), or master's by research.
Eligibility for admission is dependent on prior research experience. You need to have undertaken a significant research project or thesis either as part of an honours year, or as an assessable component of a master's by coursework degree.
We accept applications all year round. There are four research periods each year when you can start your study with us:
Research period 1: 1 January - 28 February, 2016. Enrol between 1 December 2015 and 31 January, 2016. Commence by the census date, 31 January, 2016.
Research period 2: 1 March - 30 June, 2016. Enrol between 1 February and 31 March, 2016. Commence no later than the census date: 31 March, 2016.
Research period 3: 1 July - 30 September, 2016. Enrol between 1 April -31 August, 2016. Commence no later than the census date: 31 August, 2016.
Research period 4: 1 October - 31 December, 2016. Enrol between 1 September - 31 October, 2016. Commence no later than the census date: 31 October, 2016.
Not all faculties offer all research periods; some only commence new students in periods 2 and 3. Visit Find a course to find the starting semester for your degree.
If the results of your first degree are not yet known, this should not stop you from applying, as long as you forward your results as soon as you receive them.
Many students apply for a scholarship and a place in a research degree concurrently. Most scholarship applications require proof that you have applied for a research degree with the University.
For details about applications and closing dates, see our section on research scholarships.
Start by reviewing the research degrees we offer. Once you have an idea of the type of research and qualification you would like to apply for, secure a supervisor within the University whose academic background aligns with your research. Research Supervisor Connect is the perfect place to start.
When contacting a member of academic staff, include:
As part of the application process, you will develop a research proposal of at least 500 words, covering the intention, objectives and significance of your research.
You will also need to submit two academic referee reports, each one written by a referee who is familiar with your previous academic achievements. For instructions, locate your specific course in Find a course.
Your prospective supervisor will be able to guide you through this process. Each faculty requires a different format and level of detail.
Your research proposal should be submitted along with supporting documents through Find a course. Select the course you want to apply for, and select 'Apply now' at the bottom of the page.
This will redirect you to Sydney Student, where you can save and return to your application, upload and submit documentation, and formally accept an offer if your application is successful.
Your application is subject to one of four outcomes:
A conditional offer may be made if you are waiting on academic results that will impact your application.
An alternative offer may be made if the faculty cannot offer the degree at a doctorate level. If you have satisfied the minimum academic requirements for the course as outlined in the faculty handbook, your qualification may be upgraded at the end of the research program.
No offer will be made if you have not supplied sufficient documentation or evidence of meeting course requirements.
Please note a non-refundable application processing fee of A$100 is charged for new prospective students. This fee is waived if you're a sponsored student, or if you are granted an exemption by a University staff member during an office interview or recruitment event.
If you intend to study part-time towards a PhD, you will also need to supply:
If you have a question about entry requirements or the application process for a higher degree by research (PhD), please contact us.
In addition to submitting your main application to study, some courses require you to attend an interview, give an audition, or supply a portfolio. You will be assessed on your performance in these areas, along with your academic grades. Specific details are given on faculty websites and in Find a course.
Learn more about course-specific application requirements for:
During the application process, you may be asked to attach supporting documents. These must be true and complete records. You can scan these documents and upload them online.
You should be prepared to provide original documents or original certified copies of supporting documents upon request at any time. Failure to do so may result in your candidacy being rejected.
Detailed checking of supporting documents is an inherent element of our admissions process and may involve asking for verification from the original issuing authority, relevant tertiary admissions centre, or other organisation.
Documents submitted in a language other than English must be accompanied by a complete English translation made by an accredited translator with a government body or the Registrar of the issuing institution.
Applicants from the People's Republic of China may have their academic transcripts referred to the Ministry of Education's China Academic Degrees and Graduate Education Development Centre (CDGDC) for authentication.

A Report Prepared by The Constitutional Litigation Clinic Rutgers School of Law-Newark October 2011
The decision to join the military is a very serious one. Enlisting in the Armed Forces is an irreversible commitment to spend at least three years at war. Teenagers considering enlisting should do so based on an honest and straightforward appraisal of the facts, rather than on glossy advertising campaigns that glamorize military service without acknowledging its dangers. Parents and children considering enlistment should be aware that: The military uses aggressive recruiting tactics and spends billions on advertising firms to convince students to sign up for military service. - submitted by yayanetnyc
In this publication, QUNO questions the presence and influence of the military in primary and secondary education from a peace and human rights perspective. Concerned at the military's involvement in schools and the militarization of education, QUNO draws attention to relevant international human rights standards that promote education for peace./ Quaker United Nations Office
Author: Emily Graham
An Alternative Report to the U.S. Government Initial Report to CRC OPAC scheduled for review by the Committee on the Rights of the Child during its 48th Session in May - June 2008. Submitted by the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF) – U.S. Section - Nov. 15, 2007
After a Board presentation was made by CAMS and the Human Rights Committee, UTLA (United Teachers Los Angeles) in February 2003, a District Committee was established to address questions and concerns regarding military recruitment. For over a year, members and supporters of CAMS, a grassroots coalition of teachers, school staff, students, parents and community have documented and reported to this School District Committee specific instances of aggressive and abusive military recruiter tactics. We have been concerned about the lack of parameters regarding military recruitment, the lack of information and misinformation. We once again went to the Board of Education September 12, 2005 to express our concerns and present specific resolutions to address them. At the same time, approximately 250 email messages mobilized by the Leave My Child Alone campaign were sent to the Board of Education members to support our efforts. Following the Board presentation by a student, parent, teacher and CAMS Coordinator, we were promised that action would be taken within the next month.
A Report Prepared by The Constitutional Litigation Clinic, Rutgers School of Law-Newark, November 2008
This report presents facts about military recruitment and military service to help parents and students determine whether joining the military is appropriate or necessary. This Executive Summary of the report summarizes the detailed information contained in the rest of the report.
This article offers a case study of the militarization of the Chicago Public Schools (CPS).
First, we portray the landscape of militarization of education through the example of Chicago Public Schools. Second, we situate the militarization of schools within the current charter school movement. Third, we explain the impact of militarization on youth and critique the view that military academies and military programs are appropriate as public education models. Fourth, with a lengthy appendix, we provide readers with tools to work against the militarization of public schools within their communities.
Confronting Unregulated Military Recruitment in New York City Public Schools (2007)
As the United States military intensifies its recruitment activities inside public high schools to meet wartime quotas, careful oversight of military recruitment tactics in schools is critical. The federal No Child Left Behind Law of 2001 grants the military wide access to public high schools and students' personal information. While United States Army statistics list New York City as a top source for enlistment, the full extent of military recruitment efforts in New York City public schools remains unknown.

Comments On Feb 03, 2012:I bought this belt for my wife so she would stop stealing my EVS belt. The support part of the belt is fine, but the front of the belt is too flexible and rolls up in the front, putting all the pressure in the middle of the belt instead of distributing it top to bottom.
It would probably be a good belt if I were 140 lbs with a flat stomach, but I'm 200 lbs with a gut and it doesn't work for us big guys. While my wife is skinny, she still likes the EVS better because even with her smaller waist it rolls up in the front.
The end result is my wife still uses my EVS belt and I am stuck with this one until I find something better.

Access Python Help
this wiki
created 2003 · complexity basic · author Fritz Cizmarov · version 6.0
This tip presents several ways to access Python documentation using
pydoc. The recommended location for the commands in this snippet is
~/.vim/after/ftplugin/python.vim, or
$HOME\vimfiles\after\ftplugin\python.vim on Windows.
Using a shell (simple)
To access Python documentation for the word under the cursor using, this mapping can be used
map <buffer> K :execute "!pydoc " . expand("<lt>cword>")<CR>
or for Windows
map <buffer> K :execute "!C:/<PythonDir>/Lib/pydoc.py " . expand("<cword>")<CR>
To keep the documentation open while you continue editing, this mapping can be used instead
map <buffer> K :execute "!xterm -e 'pydoc " . expand("<cword>") . "'"<CR>
or for Windows
map <buffer> K :execute "!start cmd /c C:/<PythonDir>/Lib/pydoc.py " . \| \ expand("<cword>")<CR>
These mappings only work for single words. To display the documentation for a method or a class in a module, for example
os.popen(), modify the mapping in this way
map <buffer> K :let save_isk = &iskeyword \| \ set iskeyword+=. \| \ execute "!pydoc " . expand("<cword>") \| \ let &iskeyword = save_isk<CR>
It is not recommended to permanently add
. to
Using the preview window or a scratch buffer
This snippet allows you to use the command
:Pyhelp <string> to preview Python documentation in the preview window. It also remaps
K in the same manner as above.
If Vim is compiled with
+python, it automatically finds the path to
pydoc.py. Otherwise, set the
s:pydoc_path variable to a suitable value. This seemingly indirect approach is used in an effort to make the snippet platform agnostic.
if has("python") " let python figure out the path to pydoc python << EOF import sys import vim vim.command("let s:pydoc_path=\'" + sys.prefix + "/lib/pydoc.py\'") EOF else " manually set the path to pydoc let s:pydoc_path = "/path/to/python/lib/pydoc.py" endif map <buffer> K :let save_isk = &iskeyword \| \ set iskeyword+=. \| \ execute "Pyhelp " . expand("<lt>cword>") \| \ let &iskeyword = save_isk<CR> command! -nargs=1 Pyhelp :call ShowPydoc(<f-args>) function! ShowPydoc(what) " compose a tempfile path using the argument to the function let path = $TEMP . '/' . a:what . '.pydoc' " run pydoc on the argument, and redirect the output to the tempfile call system(shellescape(s:pydoc_path . " " . a:what . " > " . path)) " open the tempfile in the preview window execute "pedit " . path endfunction
If, instead, you prefer using a scratch buffer to the preview window, change the
ShowPydoc function to
function! ShowPydoc(what) let bufname = a:what . ".pydoc" " check if the buffer exists already if bufexists(bufname) let winnr = bufwinnr(bufname) if winnr != -1 " if the buffer is already displayed, switch to that window execute winnr . "wincmd w" else " otherwise, open the buffer in a split execute "sbuffer " . bufname endif else " create a new buffer, set the nofile buftype and don't display it in the " buffer list execute "split " . bufname setlocal buftype=nofile setlocal nobuflisted " read the output from pydoc execute "r !" . shellescape(s:pydoc_path . " " . a:what) endif " go to the first line of the document 1 endfunction

- :help 'buftype'
For an alternative approach to the same problem, try the pyref.vim plug-in ( script#3104) which provides context-sensitive documentation for Python source code by looking up help topics on docs.python.org (or a local mirror on your file system) and showing them in your favorite web browser.

- This article is about the speed boat in The Ballad of Gay Tony. For other uses of the name "Blade", see Blade.
The Grotti Blade is a 2 seater speed boat featured in The Ballad of Gay Tony DLC for Grand Theft Auto IV.
The Blade is depicted as a speedboat not unlike the Smuggler, but is designed with a less streamlined body design and a shorter length, and is presumably built more for comfort; in addition, the boat may come with an optional top-mounted roll-bar that sweeps towards the front.
The boat's seagoing performance is moderately good, ranking below the Smuggler but stacking above the Floater. Likewise, the boat's maneuverability is affected, for better of worse, by its moderately heavy weight, being more controllable than a Smuggler but less so than the smaller Floater.
The Ballad of Gay Tony
- Sometimes spawned at the docks next to Golden Pier Swingers Golf Club, in the Meat Quarter.
- Used during water-based Drug Wars. Will randomly appear for the player to use during the war. Can be obtained.
- It sometimes appears near the helitour.

A herbivore is an animal that derives energy and nutrients by feeding on plants. Different types of herbivores eat different plant parts. For example, folivores feed on leaves, frugivores feed on fruits, granivores feed on seeds, pollinivores feed on pollen, and nectarivores feed on nectar. Herbivores can vary greatly in size, ranging from the largest terrestrial animals (elephants) and large marine mammals such as manatees and dugongs, to small insects, nematodes, and thrips. Herbivores are primary consumers (they receive their energy by consuming primary producers), so they play an important trophic role in ecological communities and food webs.
Terrestrial folivores
The Koala (Fascolarctos cinereus) is an Australian arboreal folivore. Photos by August, Hsueh-Cheng Ho. Australian Koala Foundation Because mature leaves are low in nutrients, and difficult to digest because of their high cellulose content, animals use many different strategies to eat leaves. Animals that feed on grass leaves are generally known as grazers. Grazers are typically not too choosy and eat all parts of leaves. Many grazers have mutualistic relationship with microbes that help them digest cellulose found in leaves. Buds and young leaves are often more nutritious and less-well defended, so browsers selectively choose to feed on high quality plant parts. Some insects actually feed inside of leaves (leaf mining). Many folivores spend most of their time feeding in trees (e.g., koalas, sloths, and folivorous monkeys).
Because leaves are low in nutrients, folivores must consume a significant biomass of leaves to meet their daily needs. Because of the heavy weight of leaves in their guts, there are very few flying herbivorous mammals or birds.
Aquatic folivores
Mammals such as muskrats and moose are common folivores in North American marshes. Interestingly, the hippopotamus, the largest aquatic herbivorous mammal, obtains most of its food while foraging on land.
Marine folivores
Large animals such as manatees, dugongs, and green turtles feed on vascular "sea grasses" that grow in shallow waters near the coast. Many invertebrates, such as sea urchins and abalone, reptiles such as the marine iguana, and many fishes feed on algae. Marine fishes us a variety of strategies to feed on algae (see Coral reef fish feeding behavior in the Caribbean). For example, parrotfishes, common tropical herbivorous fishes, scrape algae off of the rocks with their large beak-like teeth. Some damselfishes "farm" algae in small territories that they defend from other fishes,
Because eating a seed kills a potential plant, granivores are considered to be seed predators. Some granivores remove seeds directly from the plant whereas other granivores forage for seeds that lie dormant in the soil seed bank.
Some granivores play a role in seed dispersal, when they are unable to re-locate seeds that they have cached, and these seeds are thus able to germinate and grow.
Frugivores can either act as seed predators that digest seeds while eating the fruit or form mutualistic relationships with plants because they disperse seeds while, or after, consuming the fruit.
The Ruby-throated hummingbird feeding on nectar. Photo by Ken Thomas. enature.com Many nectarivores form mutualistic relationships with plants because they carry pollen from flower to flower so that pollination can occur. Other nectarivores only feed on nectar without transferring pollen and are therefore known as nectar robbers. Coevolution between plant and pollinator often results in animals with phenotypic adaptations that allows them to effectively remove nectar from the flower and successfully carry pollen from one flower to another.
Pollinivores are animals that feed on pollen.There are pollinivorous invertebrates (e.g., mites, spiders, springtails, and insects) and vertebrates (e.g., marsupials, rodents, bats, and birds). Some pollinivores successfully transfer pollen from one flower to another so they act as pollinators whereas other pollinivores act only as "pollen predators". Most pollinivores remove pollen directly from the flower, but Neotropical canopy-dwelling ants in the genus Cephalotes forage for the pollen of wind-dispersed plants that has settled on leaves in the canopy.
Phloem feeders
Pea aphids extracting sap from the stem and leaves of garden peas. (Shipher Wu (photograph) and Gee-way Lin (aphid provision), National Taiwan University [CC-BY-2.5 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.5) or CC-BY-2.5 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.5)], via Wikimedia Commons) Some bugs in the order Hemiptera feed on phloem by inserting their elongated mouthparts into the plant's vascular tissues. Because phloem is rich in sugar, but low in nutrients, some phloem-feeding insects have symbiotic micro-organisms that proved them with amino acids and others convert excess sugar into long-chain oligosaccharides that are extruded as "honeydew". Interestingly, some animals, e.g., some ants, indirectly feed on phloem by consuming honeydew. Some birds, such as sapsuckers, drill holes into the bark so that they can consume the phloem juices that are released.
Animals that feed on wood are known as xylovores. Such species act as herbivores while consuming wood from living plants, and as decomposers when feeding on dead wood. Some arthropods that feed on wood have symbiotic protists or bacteria living in their gut to aid in the digestion of cellulose whereas termites produce their own wood-digesting enzymes.
Cambium feeders
The cambium is the layer of actively dividing cells between the xylem and phloem tissues of plants and make up a small ring beneath the bark of woody plants. Because the living tissues of the cambium layer are more nutritious than the dead xylem tissues that make up wood, some animals feed selectively on the cambium. Some wood boring insects eat their way through the cambium.
Bark feeders
Bark makes up the outer layer of the branches of woody plants. Some animals such as elephants, beavers, and squirrels strip the bark off of branches and eat them whereas insects such as bark beetles feed by burrowing through the bark tissue.
Root feeders
Some insects, both larvae and adults, nematodes, and mammals such as gophers feed on roots. Some animals will burrow into the ground to feed on tubers.
Herbivores in ecological communities
Herbivores are considered to be primary consumers because they feed on plants (primary producers). Thus, herbivores feeding on plants form the first link in almost all food chains. The abundance of herbivores can control the biomass of plants and and the abundance of secondary consumers that form the next higher trophic level.
The removal of the herbivore trophic level can allow plant growth to get out of control. For example the removal of herbaceous fishes by fishing and the loss of the herbaceus sea urchin, Diameda antillarum, has led to an increase in the standing crop of algae on many coral reefs in the Caribbean Sea. Similarly, the increase in the population size of herbivores, often caused by an decrease in the population size of their predators, can greatly reduce the biomass of plants. The invasion of introduced herbivores can have harmful effects on the native plant community.
Pollination by nectarivores and pollinivores and seed dispersal by frugivores and granivores have an important influence on the distribution and abundance of plants in ecological communities.
Plants that feed on other plants
Although some plants receive energy and nutrients by "feeding" on other plants, these plants are referred to as "parasitic plants" rather than herbivorous plants.

A national group is working toward a long-term vision of providing a way for hikers on the Appalachian Trail to continue south until they reach the ocean.
They envision the Chattahoochee River, which runs through metro Atlanta, as a way to allow hikers to reach the Gulf of Mexico after they finish the Appalachian Trail, either on trails along its banks or in a canoe or kayak.
The Chattahoochee's headwaters, in the north Georgia mountains, are only a few miles from the southernmost section of the Appalachian Trail, which ends in Georgia.
Curt Soper, the Georgia-Alabama state director of the Trust for Public Land, says the group has already managed to acquire 17,000 acres of land that touch 76 river miles from the Chattahoochee's headwaters to Columbus.

either placing a red on an empty square, or changing a red to
orange, or orange to green. The player who forms 3 of 1 colour in a

This game for two players comes from Ghana. However, stones that were marked for this game in the third century AD have been found near Hadrian's Wall in Northern England.

While traveling to Azalea Town, Ash and co. encounter many Grass-type Pokémon along the way. They also meet a girl named Mariah, who owns seven Hoppip (including the one she just caught), and an Oddish who has become friends with the Hoppip. Later, a huge storm blows the Hoppip away. Can Ash and friends find all seven of Mariah's Hoppip before they fall into Team Rocket's clutches?
- Viridian City was played in the dub. It was also the theme for Brock in Pokémon Puzzle League.
- Meowth mentions "carrier pidgeons", a rare reference to a non-Pokemon species, even though we have already seen Pidgeys used in such a role. It could be an error, with Meowth meaning to say carrier Pidgeys.
- The "Who's that Pokémon?" in this episode is Gligar.
- Funny, when the group prepare for the tornado they do the safety practices for a earthquake by hiding under a desk. They should have gone to the buildings restroom if it had one. This also brings up the point on why did a weather researcher didn't have a storm shelter if she knew the dangers of storms.

Vodacom Tanzania has announced the slashing of charges for withdrawing money from M-PESA agents to as low as 20 per cent effective from today.
According to Vodacom Managing Director Rene Meza, Vodacom subscribers are now able to withdraw money from any agent in the country and will be charged in line with these new lower tariffs "which will stimulate further the social and economic activities of people registered with Vodacom M-PESA services".
"We understand the economic situation in the country and know how M-PESA has become a necessary service in the daily lives of Tanzanians, so we have decided to make it more affordable and easier for our customers. This is indeed our key focus this year and beyond," he said in a press release issued yesterday to introduce the new withdrawal fees.
The development comes just a few months after the company slashed its sending fee charges to as little as 50/- per transaction and launched a 90-day "transact and win" promotion, which we see a total of 480m/- won over the entire period of the promotion.
"Our commitment is to ensure that our customers are happy and empowered using M-PESA services. We will keep improving the products and services we offer on M-PESA to ensure relevance to the daily lives of customers," the Vodacom MD pointed out.
Vodacom M-PESA is a readily available window for a variety of payment services, including utility bills such as LUKU (for electricity), Dawasco (for water), DSTV and National Examinations Council of Tanzania fees.
It can also be used to pay for tickets for local flights on Precision Air and Coastal airlines and bus tickets, pay school fees, and deposit and withdraw money through CRDB Bank and Western Union.
With an agent network of more than 20,000 across Tanzania, Vodacom M-PESA is widely acknowledged as a dependable mobile money solution in the country.

Tuesday December 18, 2012
ATHENS, Ga. (AP) -- Kentavious Caldwell-Pope scored 17 points and Charles Mann added 10 to help Georgia snap a three-game losing streak with a 58-49 victory over Mercer on Tuesday.
The game began at 11:30 a.m. to accommodate approximately 4,000 students from nearby elementary schools.
Georgia (3-7) took a 10-point lead, its biggest of the game, on Mann's putback dunk with 3:24 remaining.
Nobody scored in double figures for Mercer (6-6). The Bears, who had won two straight and three of four, were led by Anthony White Jr.'s nine points and Daniel Coursey's eight.
Caldwell-Pope finished one rebound shy of his third straight double-double.
Langston Hall's runner with 4:32 remaining cut Georgia's lead to four, but Mercer never got any closer.

It's True! Kristen Stewart Has Apologized for Cheating on Robert Pattinson
Sometimes the tabloids get it right. KRISTEN STEWART apologized yesterday for cheating on ROBERT PATTINSON with her"Snow White" director RUPERT SANDERS.
--She said, quote, "I'm deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I've caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected.
--"This momentary indiscretion has jeopardized the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I'm so sorry."
--A source says Kristen definitely wants to stay with Rob and make things right with him.
--Kristen did NOT apologize to Rupert's wife Liberty Ross, or their two children.
--But Rupert issued his own apology, saying, quote, "I am utterly distraught about the pain I have caused my family.
--"My beautiful wife and heavenly children are all I have in this world. I love them with all my heart. I am praying that we can get through this together."
--For her part, Liberty Tweeted a MARILYN MONROE quote . . . "Sometimes bad things fall apart so better things can fall together."
--Then she dropped this quote from MAYA ANGELOU . . . "If you find it in your heart to care for somebody else, you will have succeeded."
--Finally she Tweeted "Wow", and closed her account.
The Sordid Details of Kristen Stewart's Indiscretion
As you've probably heard, it was "Us Weekly" that broke the story about KRISTEN STEWART'S little grind session with her"Snow White and the Huntsman" director RUPERT SANDERS.
--It happened on July 17th in a few discreet areas around L.A. And not surprisingly, there was a photographer on their trail.
--The photographer followed Kristen from her house to the parking lot of an empty building. Shortly after she pulled in, Sanders arrived and got into Kristen's car . . . and they proceeded to GET IT ON.
--The photographer says, quote, "Kristen was sitting up with her back against the driver's-side window, and this guy was KISSING HER ENTIRE BODY." But once they got the feeling they were being watched, they left in Kristen's car.
--After that they went to the Pacific View Trail, which is near the Hollywood sign. They parked and started making out again.
--Then they got out of the car and started groping and making out AGAIN. The photographer says, quote, "He was all over her. It seemed like they couldn't get enough."
--But every time they heard a voice or saw someone coming, they would, quote, "split up and walk in opposite directions."
--Then they got back IN the car and made out for another 20 minutes . . . before she dropped Rupert off three blocks from his house. They kissed one more time, and he walked home.
--One thing we can't really say is if there was any COITUS between Kristen and Rupert.
--I mean, what they were getting up to last Tuesday obviously counts as CHEATING. But the furthest they went that we know of was when Rupert was kissing Kristen "all over her body."
--We also don't know if this was the only time they've been romantic. But a source says NOTHING happened while they were filming"Snow White".
--It's also interesting to note that just five days after these pictures were taken, Rob and Kristen appeared together at the "Teen Choice Awards".
--We haven't heard anything directly from Rob yet, but Radar Online says he's CRUSHED.
--A source told them, quote, "Rob is in shock that Kristen cheated on him, he is absolutely devastated. But right now he doesn't want to say anything in public until he figures out what he's going to do."
(--FYI: Rupert is 41 . . . his wife is 33 . . . Kristen is 22 . . . and Rob is 26.)
Where Does This Leave the "Snow White" Sequel?
Here's another question this chaos leaves us with: What'll happen to the "Snow White and the Huntsman" sequel? As far as we know, it's not a 100% go yet, but it's already in the planning stages.
--KRISTEN STEWART is expected to star, obviously . . . and RUPERT SANDERS is supposed to direct again.
T.J. Jackson is Now the Temporary Guardian of Michael Jackson's Kids . . . And Katherine Says She Wasn't Kidnapped
T.J. JACKSON . . . son of TITO JACKSON . . . has been appointed temporary guardian of MICHAEL JACKSON'S kids Paris, Prince and Blanket.
--At an emergency hearing yesterday, the judge said, quote, "This is not a power play by T.J. Jackson. This is based on the allegation that KATHERINE JACKSON is being prevented from acting as guardian."
--No one is blaming Katherine for this. They think she's a victim herself.
--But Katherine is NOT okay with this.
--Yesterday, Katherine told ABC News, quote, "I am devastated that while I've been away, my grandchildren have been taken away from me, and I'm coming home."
--She added that the court ruling that gave T.J. temporary custody was based on, quote, "a bunch of lies."
--Meanwhile, she also refuted claims that her kids JERMAINE, RANDY, JANET and REBBIE abducted her and forced her into the Arizona resort where she's been for over a week.
--She said, quote, "There are rumors going around about me that I have been kidnapped. I am here today to let everybody know that I am good and fine. My children would never do anything to me like that."
--As for why she had no contact with the kids for more than a week, she said, quote, "One reason I didn't call is I just gave up my phone and I didn't want to have any phone calls while I was here."
--Katherine was scheduled to return home YESTERDAY.
Now There Might Be a REAL Carly Rae Jepsen Sex Scandal
After two FAKE sex scandals, "Call Me Maybe" singer CARLY RAE JEPSEN might actually be involved in a real one.
--Several months ago, Carly reported to Vancouver police that she was HACKED, and someone stole some pictures from her.
--This isn't official, but several websites are reporting that they were NUDES. Police say they have a suspect, but their investigation is ongoing, so an arrest hasn't been made yet.
--Earlier this month, alleged nude photos of Carly hit the Web . . . but it turned out to be someone else.
--Then this past Monday, an alleged Carly Rae Jepsen SEX TAPE emerged. But Carly has denied that's her, too.
Lindsay Lohan Was In Another Car Accident Yesterday
When does this stop being funny and start being sad? Answer: TWO YEARS AGO.
--LINDSAY LOHAN was involved in ANOTHER CAR ACCIDENT yesterday. But at least this one wasn't bad. It was a fender-bender at a stoplight on Sunset Boulevard. Lindsay's black Porsche tapped a silver Ford Mustang.
--A photographer at the scene says, quote, "Lindsay was NOT driving dangerously . . . it was merely a minor accident in bumper-to-bumper rush hour traffic."
--Police weren't even called. Lindsay and the driver exchanged insurance information, and that was that.
Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert Have Extended Their Comedy Central Contracts
JON STEWART and STEPHEN COLBERT aren't leaving Comedy Central anytime soon. Both of them have just agreed to contract extensions.

--The shows scored four Emmy nominations apiece last week.

Sacramento, CA (Sports Network) - Shaquille O'Neal is set to become an NBA
The four-time NBA champion will purchase a minority stake in the Sacramento
New owner Vivek Ranadive tweeted the news on Monday.
"Join me in welcoming @SHAQ to the @SacramentoKings! Only one way to go from
here!" Ranadive wrote.
It's just the latest move for a franchise that nearly left California's
capital at the beginning of the year and is completely rebuilding.
An investment group headed by Ranadive purchased the Kings from the Maloof
family last May for a reported $534 million. The Maloofs had agreed last
January to sell to a group that would have moved the franchise to Seattle, but
Sacramento mayor Kevin Johnson -- a former NBA player -- worked to keep the
club in the city with a new stadium plan and Ranadive's proposal.
The NBA heard from both groups in April and decided, by a 22-8 vote, to keep
the team in Sacramento.
O'Neal's involvement with the Kings, according to USA Today, stems from his
relationship with another of Ranadive's investors, 24-Hour Fitness founder
Mark Mastrov. The publication said O'Neal frequented Mastrov's gyms during his
playing days with the Los Angeles Lakers.
USA Today said O'Neal was planning to help mentor Kings center DeMarcus
Cousins, but that a recent meeting with Ranadive spurred bigger things.
The Kings were once O'Neal's foil. His Lakers eliminated the Kings in the
playoffs during each of LA's title runs from 2000-02, and he once referred to
the club as the "Queens."
Before adding O'Neal, the Kings reshaped their front office and coaching staff
in the wake of a seventh straight losing season.
Pete D'Alessandro was tabbed as the new general manager, while Mike Malone was
chosen as the new head coach. The club also brought in Hall of Famer Chris
Mullin as an advisor to the chairman.
