With no final vote tally issued by early Wednesday afternoon, and a slim margin between Brian Davidson and Stephen Ludwig in the race for an at-large seat on the University of Colorado Board of Regents, Ludwig spoke with friends and advisors to mull possible courses of action.
A short time later, the incumbent Democrat decided on his next move — declaring himself the winner.
"I spoke with the Secretary of State and people in the election division and we figured out where the remaining ballots are," Ludwig said. "There just aren't enough to change the outcome."
Based on tallies released by the Secretary of State's office at 3:30 p.m., Ludwig had 47 percent of the vote to 45 percent for Davidson, with 90 percent of the state's counties reporting. There were some ballots trickling in from Larimer and Adams counties as well as a "chunk" from Pueblo, Ludwig said. Because those areas historically trend Democratic, he felt confident enough to say he had won a second straight contest over Davidson.
"I wouldn't disrespect my opponent and I wouldn't embarass myself," by reacting prematurely, Ludwig said.
In 2006, Ludwig won a seat on the nine-member board, edging out Davidson, a physician who has three degrees from CU, by less than 1 percent of the vote.
For much of Tuesday night, a similarly slender result seemed in the offing. At one point, the margin between the pair dipped below 3,000 votes.
However, the initial release of results on Wednesday morning showed Ludwig with a 2 percentage point margin.
Later in the afternoon, Davidson conceded that "he most likely came up with more votes than I did," and called Ludwig to congratulate him on the probably outcome.
Entering Tuesday, both Ludwig and Davidson felt they would gather momentum from the results of the national races, and so when presidential candidate Mitt Romney faltered against Barack Obama, it wasn't too hard for Davidson to see the writing on the wall.
Although Davidson said he is proud to have fared better than other Republican candidates, both locally and nationally, he admitted there was more than a little disappointment at the final result.
"I'm used to getting things as a result of deep evaluation and very hard work, and the political process is very different from how I'm used to achieving things," he said. "It's not terribly satisfying."
There were three other Regent seats up for grabs on Tuesday. In District 5, Republican incumbent Kyle Hybl of Colorado Springs appeared headed for an overwhelming victory, leading Libertarian Steven Hartmann 71 percent to 17 percent. In District 3, encompassing the Western Slope, Republican Glenn Gallegos held a 54 percent to 46 percent lead over Democrat Jessica Garrow.
In District 7, which includes the Metro Denver area, another incumbent, Democrat Irene Griego, led Republican Mary Dambman, 52 percent to 41 percent.

2012 Lotus Leadership Awards Luncheon
On June 7, 2012, at the second annual Lotus Leadership Awards Luncheon in New York, The Asia Foundation and The Lotus Circle honored a decade-long partnership with the National Geographic Society to improve the lives of girls in Afghanistan through education. Asia Foundation President David D. Arnold said: "Together, we have been able to ensure Afghan girls receive a high-quality education in a positive, safe learning environment." The partnership began in 2002 after photographer Steve McCurry rediscovered Sharbat Gula, the "Afghan girl with the haunting green eyes" he photographed for a 1985 cover of National Geographic. Gula asked the Society to provide education to girls—something she had been denied. Dr. Sakena Yacoobi, founder of the Afghan Institute of Learning, also received a Lotus Award for her critical contributions to the education and health of Afghan women and children. Of the battle to educate women, Dr. Yacoobi said: "This fight is not finished." The Lotus Circle is a community of individuals working with The Asia Foundation to advance the rights, roles, and opportunities of women in Asia. The Lotus Leadership Awards were launched, conceived, and organized by Lotus Circle Advisors including 2012 Luncheon Chair Ida Liu and 2012 Vice Chairs Carol Rattray, Missie Rennie, and Masako Shinn, and Gina Lin Chu.

If the stress in your life is more than you can cope with, get help right away.
One of the recurrent themes in the blog comments is that of achievement and perseverance in the face of adversity. I'm fascinated by the athlete, the entertainer or the teacher who tenaciously works at achieving their dreams despite setbacks.
I'm reminded of a speaker who once said, "Those who have abandoned their dreams will try to take away our dreams."
We're all familiar with the genius of Michelangelo. His iconic and transcendent artistry is absolutely mind-boggling. Several years ago, my wife and I had the opportunity to visit a museum in Florence. When we saw Michelangelo's David, we both wept out of admiration and respect. A quote attributed to Michelangelo can be a powerful motivator for each of us, "The greater danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it."
In other words, if we don't stretch ourselves, if we don't risk failure and if we don't get out of our comfort zone, we will never reach our full potential to bring peace, joy and encouragement to our fellow travelers.

Here is the link to the stress arousal http://ygraph.com/chart/2173 I have noted..
Thanks for the post. This reminds me of the classic textbook stress arousal curve as in here: stress curve .. i.e. you need optimal stress to get things done.
I feel very gratitued for your meaningful posts, Dr. Creagan. I've found many exact encouraging and necessary thoughts that I need at the moment. I had deep emotional conflict at my work that I overcame. But soon after I got what I wanted, I realised that I couldn't physically and emotionlly keep working any more in those adverse circumstances. I left that harmful for me project. Now I'm surfing the i-net for the qualifed advices on the stress management and for the ways to stop to reharshing my difficult situation. The advices on the site of Mayo Clinic are very useful for me. Thank you again.
I've always felt worthless. Then I joined an Anxiety Support Group at the local hospital. After practicing stress release exercises, I gained courage to repeat to myself: I shall not give others the power to make me feel miserable. It has worked.
Stress....when I get my mind filled with too many worrisome things....I get what they have identified as stress migraines and then I go into a depressed mode. I don't want to see anyone, go to work and have no incentive. I don't sleep well, no matter what I take. Night is the worst for me. No matter what I have done that day, as soon as my head hits the pillow, all the worrisome things start piling up and no matter what I have taken doesn't work. I have talked to different psychiatrists and psychologists and it all sounds like words to me. Any suggestions?
I agree, Edward. Another way that our dreams can be thwarted, is when other people keep telling us that our dreams are ridiculous, and that we'll never achieve them. If you keep being told that you will never succeed, it has a negative effect on your self-esteem, and that is one of the surest ways to prevent you fulfilling your dream. It puts self-doubt in your mind, and reduces your chance of success.
It takes a lot of strong self-belief to stick to your dreams and prove everyone wrong, especially when you are young, and don't know yourself yet, if you will ever achieve your ambitions or not.
One way to get around this problem, is to not tell anyone what your dreams are. Why?
1.If you say what you plan to achieve, and then achieve it, you are only fulfilling expectations - no big deal, right?
2.If you tell people what you plan to achieve, and then you DON'T achieve it - you are labeled a failure = the worst outcome possible.
3.If you DON'T tell people what you plan to achieve, and you DON'T achieve it, it's not an issue - and you can still keep striving to achieve your dreams, but without any negative feedback from family and friends.
4.If you DON'T tell people what you plan to achieve, BUT THEN ACHIEVE IT - everyone thinks you're brilliant.
I know which strategy appeals to me the most.
Thanks for the boost! When my path to my goals seems to have more twists and turns in it than I wanted it to, I remind myself of a family member who overcame many barriers to go from the humble beginnings of a migrant farm worker who spoke no English to Harvard medical student in a span of ten years. We are all very proud of our Dr. Q, and he inspires all of us.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) -- North Carolina says it is resuming its men's basketball series with Kentucky.
UNC said Monday that the two schools will play next season in Chapel Hill. They played for 12 straight seasons but did not meet this year.
Tar Heels coach Roy Williams calls it "a great series for both schools and our fans as well as college basketball fans period."
North Carolina will host the Wildcats on Dec. 14, and will return the trip to Lexington in 2014-15. UNC leads the series 22-13 and has won six of the past nine.

From OLPC
Thank you for your reading my profile:
- Since 2004, I presented myself on the market as a "Kyoto Protocol Consultant and CO2e-Reducing Project Promotor".
- former manager of OLPCO2e - as a consultant for http://www.olpceu.org at the Brussels OLPC Offices at Ter Hulpen/La Hulpe.
- http://www.linkedin.com/in/svenaerts
- http://svenaerts228.blogspot.com/
- in the link section of my blogspot, you can learn about me in pics: http://picasaweb.google.com/SvenAERTS228/Iam#
- I've been co-writing on this wiki since april 2006.
Contact me
- skype: svenaerts
- email: SvenAERTS at laptop dot org
- phone: + 32 2 7 876 7 21
- irc ... during my time at OLPC Europe I was on most of the olpc channels, announcing all other collaborators worldwide that OLPC Europe had logged in and ready for action.
- OLPC Belgium
(Some of) My experiences with OLPC, what I'm doing now and why
OLPC is an open hardware and open software project. As with any other open software project, say Linux or Open-Office, it is impossible making money by selling e.g. Linux or Open Office because everybody knows it's open source and free downloadable. So, in order to AND support such a project AND make a living is an equilibrium that's not alway easy to find and must be approached with a lot of common and very realistic sense. Especially on ICT projects because very quickly you find yourself competing with very brilliant people from all over the planet, including countries that might be lower wage countries, etc.
I'm a keen user of ICT, but I'm not a programmer, and I don't have a whole MIT behind me. So I'm working from a pretty weak position versus others. I managed to get hired by OLPC Europe for the combination of my knowledge about the project but most of all because of my knowledge on how to bring additional resources and money to the table via the generation of CO2e certificates by OLPC deployments via the Clean Development Mechanism under the CO2e certificate Emission Trading System as defined by the http://UNFCCC.int.
That was a specific job nobody else could do as good as me, so I got hired, but it only took 2 months.
I assumed that the educational landscape - teachers, especially ICT teachers, and for sure the university level, specialists on the use of ICT in education in cabinets of the Ministries of Education, etc. - would get involved in the OLPC XO-XS educational initiative, develop capacity, fill-out grant forms to get OLPC-Schools / -labo's where people could come and see, touch, work with the XO-XServers, get a feel, meet the OLPC Community leaders, learn about the project, etc. After all, teachers can work from a structured, organized setting with a salary every month. So I thought, let's certainly not get into that lane because I'll be run over as I'm not backed by a school/university of paid job. I'm an independent entrepreneur. So I left.
To my growing disbelieve I kept on hearing more and more about teachers setting up iPad labs / test-projects, smart-board is now the big thing (2012-2013), Microsoft here and Microsoft there, the dangers of wifi and overuse of computers by kids, etc. and absolutely NOTHING about OLPC XO-XS, nothing. Not even in 2009-10-11 when Uruguay and Peru did their full deployment and all kids 5 till 15 had received an XO-XS. Meanwhile our son was born, became 3 years, entered kinder garden. So I poked around a bit what was the ICT strategy in schools, in his school, if they'd heard of OLPC and the XO-XS, what was happening in Uruguay and Peru? Nobody ever heard of it. WHAT?! People in the educational landscape had not even heard of the largest educational initiative ever undertaken my humanity? OLPC XO-XS deployments are supported by the UN, Unesco, the secretary general Ban KI-MOON and Kofi ANAN ... there's plenty of pics of them out there with XO's in their hand. What happened?
Now of all places where I could be living, we live in Brussels. And I am there because Brussels is also the Capital of the Largest Emission Trading System on the planet, and I take part is quite some events here organized by the European Commission and that sort. The OLPC-EU Brussels office was full time lobbying and working - had worked their way into just about ALL the embassies here in Brussels and got appointments with the Presidents/Ministers of Education/Ministers of Economy/Prime Ministers whenever their job brought them to Brussels. Even me, I showed the XO's from the office at some of the EU events. So how on earth could it be that OLPC is not taking of here in Europe or even at other places or so slow? That the test-deployments have such a hard time spinning out in region wide deployments. But here in Europe, hardly anybody seems to take the OLPC initiative any further to at least make sure there's test-sites in every major region in Europe or country. And than these iPad "class rooms", they really give me the creeps. It's so completely what OLPC and the XO-XS are not about. To me these iPads are just good to learn our youth techniques to evaluate if they want to get on board with a hype or not, what criteria to use to make up your mind. Don't get me wrong, I think iPads are great, but at 750€, they are not the e-tool you want to put in the hands of kids / youngsters. I think the OLPC XO-XS is the preferred choice.
So I started analyzing what went wrong. Tried to take up contact with as many EU OLPC contacts as possible. And I found out that everybody who knows or gets to know OLPC thinks it's great - but for poor countries and poor kids, and their kids deserve something better, like a real laptop. People make that assumption because mostly they see pics of black-brown/poor kids holding these XO's. But the XO-XServer combination, is THE etool, the BEST e-tool out there and you want for your kid and school: a strong box, that can be easily updated, repaired with a normal screw-driver and all the same screws, open hard and software, made to be updated, puts itself automatically in a network with the other kids-XO-laptops, and with its video-call capability probably good for a large portion of their communication needs. There is no way you can get a better price/quality if tens of thousands are being ordered month after month after month for several years. It's a real money saver. And it pays for itself because they generate CO2e certificates and secondly from increased tax revenues because a better informed society - better educated society is able to generate more additional value more efficiently and quicker, so tax-revenues increase and that's important if you're the minister of education/prime minister/minister of economy because you have to defend the investment.
So, since nobody else is explaining this, I've taken it upon me to take the OLPC XO-XS in the core of my activities as an independent entrepreneur and Leadership Developer of the Low Carbon / Green Economy with its carbon-money / CO2e currency.
My core business leads me to set-up multi-disciplinary, international, gender and age balanced teams to think up and develop sustainable projects that generate these CO2e certificates. For this I've set-up with the diaspora here in Brussels:
- http://www.AfricaCO2e.org
- http://www.DiasporaCO2e.tk,
- a http://www.LeadershipInstitute.tk and the
- http://www.AfricanWomanLeadershipInstitute.tk
Our teams regularly get in touch with high ranked individuals in developing countries and pitch the OLPC - XO-XS as part of a Waste-to-Building materials demonstration project where we build Sustainable Schools using waste material. They have sets of 4 pager documents with lots of pics and relevant data on them.
If you're interested to team-up, send me an email with your http://www.linkedin.com profile, what you want to do and what you need for achieving that.
Types / Categories of Questions on OLPC
i'm also trying to help in bringing structure in the questions people throw at you, especially sceptic ones, that can take you off guard. I've participated in such an initiative in the climate change debate. We found out there's a LOT of questions, but not an endless/infinite number of questions. In all there's about a 100 questions or so, and then questions seem to come back or fall back into variations on the same theme. So I've started to rank them into groups and categories to help speed up the learning curve for people that want to talk about the olpc educational initiative or who want to know about OLPC. Here's the kick-off page http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Types_/_Categories_of_Questions
If you're interested to team-up, send me an email with your http://www.linkedin.com profile, what you want to do and what you need for achieving that.
I've been co-writing on this wiki since april 2006.
- (a response from a concerned reader)
- Dear Sir,
- Thank you for your efforts, but listing questions like this will do more harm than good.
- You have been rigorous in collecting questions, categorising them, and expanding on the responses, and so forth ... but the questions and responses reinforce the beliefs of those who object to a deployment.
- One of the common myths in OLPC advocacy is that the objections to deployment can be rationally addressed, and that people can agree if only they share their facts, such as on a Wiki.
- This myth is reassuring, and comfortable, but misdirects action into fact assembly and checking. What actually happens is that on receipt of the facts phrased as objections, the objectors will have their objections reinforced.
- I think your approach on Types_/_Categories_of_Questions is misguided. You should instead:
- do a frequency analysis, and reduce the number of questions to something more like 20, discarding the questions that are so infrequent as to be immaterial, and assemble them in one page (using Wiki transclusion),
- avoid phrasing the questions in a way that reinforces belief, as part of the familiarity backfire effect,
- avoid repeating responses, and bloating the responses with more text, both of which are known to cause the overkill backfire effect,
- read the Debunking Handbook to understand how to properly respond to questions from objectors, and read the relevant research on communication, a collection of which can be found in the bibliography of the Debunking Handbook.
- I look forward to seeing your appreciation of the problem. --Quozl 01:11, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
- Thx Quozl for the reply and the link to the book. Debunking is something I've been working on since quite some time. It's nice to see there's professionals that have published a free book on the topic so we can improve ourselves. It's been a and it is a rocky ride and I'm sure it will smoothen the riding from now on. I hope I'm doing well responding here, or should I have copy/pasted the title on your discussion page and placed the reply there? I've never been able to find a place where it's explained who this use of the discussion pages actually works. --SvenAERTS 21:34, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
Why I am involved
I've had the priveledge during my Youth to get involved in an International Youth Organisation called http://www.yeenet.eu - Youth Environment Europe, it made me a better person and I want to give back all I learned there to nowadays youth, to coach them the best I can, to share, built upon what previous youth generation have built and to take part in mankind's ultimate event: the creation of World Peace... and nothing less... and I think it is great to be part of this One Laptop Per Child, Universal Primary Education initiative in which the United Nations is a Partner, and knowing that I'll be able to tell my children and their children and their children and their children that their grand-dad was part of that exciting and inspiring generation, back in the old days of around the 2nd Millennium, transforming and leading humanity back into a sustainable society finally. And I hope to inspire others to be part of the movement. :)
- Everything I've learned there, I've most of it turned into Leadership Development Workshops: a.o. http://yeeseniors.tk/
- Till the age of 35, I was an official EU Youth Trainer (one of 200 recognized by the EU, as per EU Salto Youth Trainers Database)
- so far there was 1 seminar and trainingscourse that won a reward by the European Comission and the Directorate General of Education and Culture, and we had a workshop in Turkey in june 2006 where 25 youth leaders from 15 countries gathered on the topic: IT for Youth Initiatives, which resulted in the creation of a Virtual Office for all Youth Initatives in the world - hosted on the servers of a Polish University - and the YouthandtheOLPCinitiative.
- you can meet me regularly in http://www.fosdem.org :)
I live in Belgium-Brussels

Tufts Dye Tutorial
In honor of the 2010 Division III National Champion Tufts Jumbos, I dyed this head as a gift to their coach. The alumnus that approached me had an idea for a head that would stand as a memorial to this year's team. We began with a lot of information, and it took a bit of time to figure out exactly what would and wouldn't fit on the head. The finished product includes all of the coaches, captains, All-Americans, and the year's motto as well as the Jumbo's logo.

The Balaclava is a black three-holed ski-mask that can be worn in Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto V . It can be seen worn by Niko, Packie, Derrick and Michael in the mission Three Leaf Clover, and becomes available in Niko's wardrobe afterward. Although it is a mask, it is categorized as a hat, however, unlike a hat, the Balaclava will not disappear when Niko enters a car or when a motorcycle helmet is used. Even so, once Niko dies and comes out from the hospital, he won't be wearing it anymore. Go back to your wardrobe, however, and it will be there. If Niko loses his wanted level with the balaclava on, he will automatically take it off and throw it on the ground. However, it will still be in your wardrobe after that. It is also available in the player's skin in the multi-player mode in The Lost and Damned in different colors. In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, a gray Balaclava is worn by Carl Johnson during the Burglary Missions, but cannot be found outside of these missions. Although it can be obtained via a glitch that occurs when the player starts a Burglary Mission, enters in a barber shop, selects a haircut and waits for the time limit to be over. The Balaclava will disappear if the player gets busted or wasted, or if he changes clothes.
There is a similar mask in Grand Theft Auto Vice City Stories which can be unlocked by owning a highroller robbery empire building.
The balaclava can also be worn in GTA V.
- If Niko sustains constant injury from gunfire, the Balaclava will turn white. This is possibly a glitch.

Comments On Aug 15, 2014:I have ran a nose guard for years. A small branch to the tip of the nose when its cold outside will stop you in your tracks. Its cheap so buy one.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Apr 07, 2012:Seems this item should cost more like $5 given it's a little piece of plastic, but it proved to be a great addition to my O-frame goggles. Really mates up well with a Fox V3 helmet to create a pretty close seal to block dirt, mud, pebbles, dust, cold air, etc., from going between the bottom of the goggle and helmet mouth guard area, so not to hit your lower face, nose, mouth. A little tricky to install though so I purchased a second for my other pair of goggles.

Jack Howell works with Budd Mackenzie to support the work of Trust in Education in Afghanistan. Jack organizes the production of solar cookers in California, USA. The they are shipped to Kabul, and Budd arranges for their distribution.
Recent news and developments
- April 2013: Jack Howell reports that once the 100 volunteer-built solar ovens were delivered, a solar box cooker variation with a wooden base and 1" of rigid insulation, refugee families were bused to the Trust in Education office in Kabul, Afghanistan. They were given a four-hour lesson on how to use the solar ovens, and each family was given an oven to take back to their camp. Since this initial project, the new cookers are a CooKit variation, being produced at a local box manufacturing company in San Leandro, California. The reflective material used for the solar panel cookers is recycled Mylar coffee bean bags from Peet's coffee headquartered in Berkeley, California. They are cut open and cleaned by adults with developmental disabilities by the people from Futures Explored in Lafayette, CA. With the reflective interior surface facing out, they are then stapled to the cooker panels by the Afghans. We have delivered 2,000 cookers to Afghanistan and collected over 20,000 bags from Peet's (keeping many Mylar bags from the landfill.) The new cookers are working very well and Afghans love them.

Colorado governor John Hickenlooper is presenting state lawmakers with his budget proposal on Wednesday.
The plan includes more funding for schools, colleges, Medicaid and the first pay raises for state employees in five years.
This is the first spending plan in years without major cuts. The state general fund will grow to $8.1 billion next year, which is up from about $7.6 billion last year.
State economists say the economy is slowly growing, but it has gotten a boost from taxes on stock sales. Colorado is still $1.1 billion below the general fund level of 2007, before the recession.

If my son wants to go to school 7 days a week SpringStone must be doing something right. SpringStone is amazing, period! Thank you everyone, we are so glad we found you!
We couldn't be happier with the decision we made to enroll our son at Springstone. Immediately after attending we started seeing a difference over his previous school. His self confidence and independence skyrocketed and his knowledge level grew rapidly. He loves his teachers, has made many new friends and he always amazes me with the new things that he is learning at school. One of the best decisions we've made concerning the welfare of our son.

Our 20 month old son has absolutely thrived since we enrolled him at SpringStone. His focus, patience and verbal skills have shown remarkable improvement since he began several months ago. He is just as happy and content when we drop him off as when we pick him up each day. The weekly themed activities, (ie: book week, animal week, community worker week) make it even more fun for the kids and parents alike. SpringStone is clean, well staffed with educated and caring personnel and it provides a safe environment for our son. I do not believe there is a better choice for early childhood education than SpringStone Montessori School.
