By Robbie Ward/NEMS Daily Journal
THIS IS THE FIRST installment of six daily articles on each of the Tupelo
City Council races running today through Saturday in order of ward number.
TUPELO – Jeff Ware had just finished mowing his yard and spending time outdoors with his family in the Oak Meadows neighborhood when he was asked about the upcoming election.
While he and his wife, Cheryl, haven't put a lot of time into which candidate for Ward 1 on the Tupelo City Council will get their vote, he has the criteria in mind.
"Just like any other level of government, you vote for the one who is the best leader," he said. "You vote for who can improve the school system, lower taxes, improve streets and being friendly to business."
When Ward 1 residents in the northwest part of the city vote in the Republican primary on May 7, they will decide if their next representative on the City Council will be one-term incumbent Markel Whittington, 63, or challenger Daniel Owens, 35.
While both candidates own businesses and consider themselves conservative, they have differences relevant to the election.
Whittington, an office furniture salesman and business owner, moved to Tupelo nearly four decades ago to open McRae's department store. He has been involved with several small businesses and believes his background helps bring fiscal conservatism and common sense to local government.
"We need good business people on the council who know how to balance a budget," he said recently.
Whittington said city government needs to keep taxes low and improve its approach when interacting with citizens and businesses. In short, he summarizes his political philosophy as wanting to ensure the community is safe, fiscally sound and somewhere people want to live and work.
His opponent, Owens, moved to Tupelo six years ago and works as a sergeant with the Tupelo Fire Department and owns the children-oriented Jump Tupelo. He said he would bring a younger perspective to city government and also would have a better understanding of city employees.
"I'm not a politician," Owens said. "I'm a public servant in just another role."
During the current term, Whittington said he wanted to reduce the number of sick days city workers can have to 90 to limit the amount of money the city pays in benefits. Currently, Tupelo and other municipal and state employees can accumulate the sick leave and cash it out when they retire or retire early.
Owens disagrees, saying capping sick days could lead to city employees having to go to work sick.
"If limits are set then you are taking away from city employees that are putting the city first," he said.
While both men list as goals improving the Tupelo Public School District and would have a vote in appointing school board members, Owens' son attends the private Tupelo Christian Preparatory School. He said this wouldn't create any type of credibility concern while discussing public school matters.
"I don't have anything against the Tupelo public school system," Owens said. "They just don't teach Bible classes."
For Whittington, a key concern is ensuring school board members and city government leaders communicate to ensure that goals overlap.
A key issue since the 2010 Census revealed less population growth compared to smaller communities surrounding Tupelo. Improving blighted and decaying parts of older neighborhoods is important to both candidates.
Whittington sees improving neighborhoods as a key factor to also improving the school district.
"The school system is strictly a product of our neighborhoods," he said.
A difference between the two candidates is that Owens opposed Whittington's recent support to allow Carlock Toyota in the Barnes Crossing shopping area to install sign more than twice as large as city ordinances allow.
"I wouldn't have voted for the sign," Owens said. "Nobody wants to see that."

Ward 1 Q&A
1.What relevant experience and personal qualifications would you bring to the Tupelo City Council?
I have an 18 year background in public service at the city, county and state levels. I am a business owner who knows how to set goals and meet them. I am a parent of school-aged children. I enjoy meeting and greeting the public and have leadership experience as an instructor at the Mississippi State Fire Academy and a Sargent with the Tupelo Fire Department.
Small business owner for 30-plus years. I have been very active in community affairs and served on several boards.
2. Name the top three goals/projects that you will pursue if elected.
OWENS: 1. I want to strive to ensure that the Tupelo City Schools excel academically and provide the safest environment for every single student. 2. Help make Tupelo a quality life experience for all of its citizens. 3. Encourage new projects for safety and quality of life such as bike paths, green spaces and especially a new walking/bike path along North Gloster to the Barnes Crossing Mall.
WHITTINGTON: 1. Solvency to make sure we manage Tupelo to an operating budget that is balanced. 2. Improve infrastructure of Tupelo to
include neighborhood improvement 3. Work to improve Tupelo Public
3. The 2010 Census showed stalled population growth and median income in Tupelo compared to northern suburbs. How should city government help retain and recruit middle-class residents?
There are already initiatives dealing with schools and neighborhoods. Quality housing levels should be addressed. People will move to where the schools are good and quality jobs are available. Tupelo should continue to improve the aesthetics of all areas. Attention should be paid to enforcing codes, zoning, signage and care of public and private property.
We will continue to improve the quality of life and the livability of the city to include incentives to attract families to Tupelo.
4.Tupelo has begun taxpayer-funded neighborhood redevelopment initiatives. Do you support continued action and expansion of these projects?
Yes I do support these projects and with expanding them, but we need to
have a plan that our citizens support and have a say as to what is done.
Bringing in consultants from other areas is not always reliable for knowing what works in Tupelo. Care should be taken to use the funds efficiently and with a plan supported by our citizens.
Neighborhood redevelopment has to be a public and private partnership – the city can't get into the Real Estate business but we can offer incentives for development by the private sector.

The Kiwis winger is hoping the Craig Bellamy situation is resolved soon as St George prepare for the NRL season.
Whether Craig Bellamy says yes or no to the Dragons, Jason Nightingale hopes the situation can be resolved as soon as possible.
St George made a massive A$5 million ($6.21 million) offer to the super-coach before Christmas, and the 'will he, won't he' saga has dominated much of the NRL off-season.
Current coach Steve Price is locked in for this season but his future beyond that is contingent on Bellamy's plans. Bellamy hopes to make a decision by the second week of February and Nightingale says it can't come soon enough.
"He says he is going to make his mind up pretty soon and for our club - whether he decides to come or not - the sooner, the better it will be for our 2013 season," Nightingale told the Herald on Sunday.
"[The whole situation] has been fairly intense, and players, staff and the whole club will be a bit more settled when it gets sorted.
"It's another thing we can't be focusing on. I'm not sure what he is doing - whether he is coming or not - so I can't really comment but I am looking forward to the outcome so we can focus on 2013."
Aside from that, Nightingale reports that the Dragons' pre-season has been one of the toughest he can remember. After missing the end-of-season test in Townsville through injury, he has been hard at work since October, rehabilitating his knee and working his way back to full fitness.
"It's been real tough actually," he laughs. "There was no Kiwis tour, which usually gets me out of the first part of the off-season. It's been a hard slog but I feel fitter and stronger than ever."
Most of the Dragons' pre-season had been down in Wollongong, meaning 5am starts for Nightingale before the drive down the south coast from Sydney. The coaching staff has come up with a particularly painful pre-season routine, where every session is slightly longer than the previous one.
"We are always adding on to each session," says Nightingale. "We never do the same amount. They always make us do a bit more and that has been very hard mentally."
On the New Zealand front, Nightingale was to the fore at the Kiwis' Heritage Camp, completed last weekend in Sydney.
Still only 26, the right winger has been a virtual ever-present since his international debut in 2008. Mature beyond his years, he has been part of the Kiwis' leadership group since 2011 and takes particular pride in offering guidance and advice to the young players in the back division.
"Especially for the guys in the back three, I try to help out where I can," says Nightingale, who has played 16 tests, "and help to provide that link between players and staff."
He says the Kiwis brains trust have identified their sluggish starts as a major area of focus for tests in 2013.
"It is something we looked at last year. In many games, it does seem that the Aussies get off to a better start and we are chasing. There have been exceptions but in most recent games, it has taken us a while to warm into things.
"Then we realise we're more than competitive and get ourselves in position to win certain matches and fall short. If we didn't give up some head starts, we would probably put ourselves in position to win more."
There were initial signs of a turnaround last season, where they scored the opening try in the Eden Park Anzac test and also produced a solid first quarter in Townsville.
Nightingale says being competitive from the whistle, and not falling to scoreboard pressure, is crucial to building belief in the Kiwis squad.
Though they are reigning world champions, the Kiwis haven't beaten the Kangaroos since late 2010, though the gap seems to be closing.
"We have had a few sub-par performances in the last few years but in general, we have matched up well. There is a real belief that we can compete at that level. The leadership group and the staff believe we can win - it is just about translating that to the whole squad. We certainly go into a game thinking we are going to win more than we are going to lose."

I thought to share with you; my very unexpected* Christmas gift, that I just received from Rachel, my wonderful wife.
*Even after 29 years of marriage, every now and then, she still manages to throw an absolute suprise my way! ;)
The Sovereign case or holder is Gilt Sterling Silver by my favourite Victorian English Silversmith; Sampson Mordan. The inside of the lid bears the Hallmarks of The "Lion Passant" for Sterling Silver, The "Three Wheatsheaves & Sword" of the Chester Assay Office, The "A" date letter for 1901 and the Company strike "SM & Co Ld" for Sampson Mordan & Company. Finally the Company article reference number "793".
I wrote a little piece on Sampson Mordan his history and Company, in my previous pencil/pen posts on Collectors Weekly, such as:
As with all high quality English pieces, where there are various parts that could become separated (i.e. the suspension ring), they have been further Hallmarked with "Lion Passant" and "A" date letter. The case is gilded all over and does show some slight finger/pocket rubbing to the outer gilding. I can imagine the original owner rubbing the very tactile case whilst it nestled in his waistcoat pocket, suspended on his "Albert" chain, with his Gold Half Hunter watch on the other end! He would have been a gentleman of some very considerable wealth. There is the engraved monogram "AF" on the case lid. I wonder who he was, what sort of man he was ? The exquisitely engraved initials bring to mind my speculative Collectors Weekly posts on the Silversmiths engraved copper plates back last year:
Rachel also got me a case "filler" in the shape of an absolutely mint 1891 Victorian Gold Sovereign. The case will happily take four or five coins on the sprung loaded platform clip. For anyone interested, there is an interesting article exploring English Gold Sovereigns on Wikipedia:
Thanks to Rachel, and to you, my fellow CW Members for checking out my No.1 Christmas present! A very Happy New Year to you all!

This anime has an Idiot Plot.
It is extremely frustrating to see every character in this plot being incredibly dumb. Not even just naive Shirou, but experienced characters such as Saber and Rin. Of course, if you had this complaint about the old Fate/Stay Night TV show, this will sound like nothing new to you. Let's list off a few of the largest examples, shall we?
Shirou refusing to let Saber sleep in the same room as him, despite being stabbed through the heart once already. Saber letting him make that decision, while having witnessed the terrible events of... See full review
The second season of Log Horizon is a caricature of the first.
Characters have been flanderized to a significant degree, the dialogue is suitably wacky™ enough for your regular trash animes, and they introduce an incredibly stereotypical and annoying character that everyone wishes would just go away, but persists in being in the show to contribute to the aforementioned wacky factor.
The small crush Serara has in the first season returns only to annoy you with extremely overblown... See full review
This series didn't have as much to live up to as New Challenger did, but somehow manages to fall even flatter than that one. Whereas there were good parts to New Challenger, Rising seems rotten to the core, and I have a hard time finding anything to praise it for. The visuals are sharp as ever with the Ippo series, and don't disappoint, unlike everything else. The blasts of air are there, as are all the dramatic lighting and blasts of pressure by the punches. However, the sound design is lifeless. It has become more obvious than the last series, and the actual sounds in the fights is... See full review
As a sequel to the 2000~2002 series, this series had a lot to live up to. In many ways it does fall short, but in the most important places it holds up.
The areas where it is on par with or surpasses it's predecessor are in visuals, the sound design of the fights, and the choreography.
Visuals are sharp, and in the fights, they have the same intense quality they had before, with screen-shaking punches and blasts of air as the punches connect or slip past their mark. The fight's sound design also lends them weight, and each punch is felt more than just seen, due to the excellent... See full review
This show has gotten some well-deserved hype, because it certainly looks great, and the soundtrack is nice. On top of that, it has a premise that in the beginning, looks very very interesting.
Where this show falls down for me is that the plot is completely and utterly inconsequential.
The problem is that the show tries to head with an episodic format, while not realizing that in many successful episodic shows such as Nichijou or Working!!, the plot of each episode is removed from the others, but they focus on one group of characters.
In Sword Art Online, we see the adventures... See full review

In response to implementation of the healthier school lunch required by the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010, the American Council on Exercise issued the following statement:
The new school lunch provides students with healthy and balanced meals that are rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains and have less sodium, saturated fat, and empty calories than the old school lunch. Not surprisingly, students accustomed to lunches filled with high-salt, fried foods have not readily adjusted to the change. Some students, teachers, and politicians have expressed concern that children are not eating the lunches and consequently may not be meeting their nutritional needs or may finish lunch hungry.
The new school lunch provides 850 calories for high school students, 700 calories for middle school students, and 650 calories for elementary school students. It provides a nutritionally-dense and balanced meal, reflecting recommendations of the Dietary Guidelines. A child who eats the school lunch should receive more than adequate calories and nutrients to meet needs for optimal growth and development. Many school districts provide unlimited access to fruits and vegetables for children who are still hungry, or for young athletes and other active children who require more calories than the average student.
It should come as no surprise that the students are not readily embracing the healthier school lunch. If given a choice between french fries or broccoli, 99 percent of children will choose the french fries. However, given the current epidemic of childhood obesity and physical inactivity, schools and communities cannot afford to cater to a child's preference for sweet and salty foods. School is a place where parents send their children to gain an education and learn how to be healthy and care for themselves. The school lunch should serve as an example of the highest health standards in practice.
Parents, professionals, and community members concerned about the new school lunch should consider the following three points:

Chihayafuru is an average anime. I have nothing significantly bad to say about it, yet at the same time, giving it anything more than a 6 doesn't feel right. Story: The first half of season one is quite predictable (and slow paced) and the second half begins to feel repetitive. At one point, I considered dropping the series because I was so bored. It certainly didn't help that the show fails to maintain a tense atmosphere to keep the viewer on edge of his/her seat. Lessons that the main character, Chihaya, supposedly learns during matches seem to be forgotten all the time. For example, they seemed to... See full review
There is not much to say about this OVA. The animation quality was about the same as Rei. It used already existing soundtracks. The story was interesting, but didn't feel very climactic. I was disappointed to see that many characters didn't make an appearance (Ooishi, Takano, Tomitake, Akasaka, Shion). I was also disappointed that Rika only had about 3 minutes of screen time. The ending was sort of cliche. It's nice to see the main characters again, but don't have too high expectations for this OVA. On a positive note, Kaku is better than Kira.See full review
Before, I get started, allow me to say something: Hyped anime like these always seem to get at least one (usually many more) review where it is simply made up of "ermahgerd this anime wus so awesome u must watch it haz cool characters and fun plot" and a 9/10 or 10/10 on every section. I beseech you not to take any reviews like this seriously. Reviews should explain what makes the characters "cool" and why the plot is "fun." The ratings should be justified.

Story: The protagonist from another world becomes stranded in a new world, the protagonist adapts to the new environment, the protagonist begins to prefer new world over old one, and then the protagonist saves the new world. Many anime use this setting, with only small variations, including Inuyasha, Zero no Tsukaima, Dog Days, and Hataraku Maou-sama. I enjoyed all of these to a certain extent (except Dog Days; was just too bizarre for me), but none of these shows really focused on how the protagonist struggles to adapt. After one or two episodes of the protagonist being awkward, he/she becomes used to... See full review
Sakurasou is an average show. It starts like a typical fan service/romantic comedy. It has typical characters. It has typical character designs. It has a typical, boring, wimpy main character. Story: For about the first six episodes, I expected almost nothing out of the show. Then they tried to make it unique, by having the main character do something with himself, rather than just living life, attending school, and walking into scene after scene of fan service (he still did, but at least they tried to make the story a little different from other anime in the same genre). The first half of the show... See full review
Let's just get one thing clear: I am a Strike Witches fanboy. BUT that will not affect my review of Vividred Operation. I can guarantee that, because in my opinion, Strike Witches is 100000000000000000 times better than this show. Thus, you can be assured that this review will remain as objective as possible. Story: As this show was made by the same director as Strike Witches and Sky Girls, I expected very little in terms of plot. My expectations were fulfilled. Of these three works, I have to say Sky Girls has the best plot development (and ironically it is the least well known). Vividred... See full review
Story Naegino Sora wants to be the top star of Kaleido Stage, an entertainment group. While Kaleido Star has a very basic, not to mention cheesy, premise, it managed to keep me on the edge of my seat throughout all fifty one episodes. Kaleido Star's story is paced and structured very well. It is what I call "semi-episodic," in that it balances single episode stories about daily life in the troupe with multi episode arcs that progress the plot. In addition, there were very few times when I could confidently say Sora would succeed in her attempts at a new manuever or an audition/competition. Even... See full review
Story After hearing from friends how great this anime was, I finally decided to watch Anohana, and was somewhat disappointed. The first problems that came into my mind as I watched were 1) If the girl can interact with her environment, why doesn't she do that from the beginning to prove her existence? and 2) The first episodes really emphasized the distance that had formed between the friends, but suddenly, they are acting a bit nicer to each other. eg: Tsuruko is a complete b**** towards Anaru when she picks up her notebook for her, but then speaks to her in a somewhat normal tone later on. The second... See full review
The movie trailer had me totally convinced that the main setting was Romagna. Then I watched the movie. It's not. lol From the perspective of a Strike Witches fan, this movie was great. It introduced land Neuroi, normal troops fighting Neuroi, introduced other witches, and did other things to expand the Strike Witches universe for people who don't have access to the semi-canon doujinshi, LN's, and manga. It had the usual amount of panty-shots. The beginning starts off with a couple of nicel animated fights and it was nice to see the 501st again. Also, I don't think I've ever liked Perrine in season 1 or 2... See full review
This is my rant review of Little Busters! Story: I will start with an introduction to the typical formula for a Key VN adaptation. Little Busters!, like Air, Kanon, and Clannad (and Clannad After Story), is a visual novel adaptation. Unlike visual novels, anime cannot take a specific routes and then restart to try another. Successful adaptations must somehow combine scenes from all routes and have an overall conflict, in addition to the subconflicts in each arc. Kanon does this by combining Ayu's search for a lost belonging with the problems of every other damsel in distress heroine. It does... See full review
Story (3/10): The plot starts off in a very unique manner, but then quickly goes downhill from there. First, the girl rejects the guy. Then the guy rejects the girl. Then it switches. Again. And Again. And again. And aga- You get the point. I saw quite a bit of potential in this series during the first few episodes, but after that, this show became a typical rom-com with rivals in romance appearing for both protagonists. Kaibutsu-kun's inability to take things seriously put me off the most. Issues that should have been resolved maturely, are instead ignored/interrupted/forgotten through the unpredictable...

This movie is highly overrated. It's ranked well because only K-On fans watch this movie. Now, I am not saying the movie was not enjoyable. It was nice to see all the characters again, and the ending song was great as usual. Howver, it does not deserve to be on the first page of the rankings. Story (4/10): The plot is basic and seems more like a very long episode than a movie. Not that epic and I would not rewatch it anytime soon.

Shares of server and storage connectivity vendor Mellanox Technologies (MLNX) are down $7.99, or almost 13%, at $53.84, after the company last night reported Q1 revenue and profit that topped consensus, but forecast this quarter's revenue well below consensus.
The shares received two downgrades today, that I can see, from Needham & Co. and Mizuho, though there were also numerous bulls defending the name.
Needham & Co.'s Glenn Hanus, cutting his rating on the shares to Hold from Buy, and stripping off his $75 price target, writes that while he remains "positive on MLNX's Infiniband /Ethernet technology and favorable prospects for its increasing presence in HPC and more recent verticals such as Web2.0, Cloud, storage, financials and database/datacenter," nevertheless after cutting his estimates he finds the stock has a "healthy" valuation.
Hanus cut his estimates for this year to $397.5 million and $1.06 per share from a prior $592 million and $3.71 per share.
Writes Hanus, "We are finding it increasingly difficult to provide a '13/14 financial model with any conviction," even though he lauds the company's technology edge:
In IB [Infiniband], MLNX seems to be a generation ahead of INTC, and clearly benefitting from increased IB utilization in verticals outside HPC (especially Cloud in 2013). In 10/40GbE, MLNX's RDMA over Ethernet appears to provide lowest latency driving MLNX's traction especially in Web 2.0 and financial services.
Mizuho's Ruben Roy, meanwhile, cut his rating to Neutral from Buy, with a price target of $60, writing that the outlook is a consequence of "the inventory overhang, coupled with a challenging demand environment."
Things may get better later this year, writes Roy, but visibility is limited:
We continue to believe that the InfiniBand TAM will continue to increase as new markets embrace the technology. With the potential for some large deals in 2H, coupled with an end to the inventory overhang over the next few quarters and the potential for more traction with new products, we believe that better times are ahead for MLNX. However, management does not appear to have much visibility into the magnitude or exact timing of the deals.
Roy cut his estimates for this year to $449.6 million and $1.70 per share from a prior $454.4 million and $1.76.
But Janney Capital Markets's Bill Choi today reiterated a Buy rating, while cutting his price target to $68 from $75, writing "We are disappointed by the Q2 guide down on ongoing channel inventory workdown and large deal delays; however, secular growth trends remain favorable and the competition is lagging."
Choi notes customers still purchase product despite an inventory buildup, and he expects better times later this year:
Recall, Mellanox discovered excess inventory buildup of approximately $30 million at one large OEM customer (HP) in Q4. Mgmt was expecting majority of the inventory to be worked off in Q1; however, inventory depletion process appears to take longer than expected. Less than 1/2 of the excess inventory was worked down in Q1 and mgmt now believes the process may take more than one quarter. Interestingly, HP continues to purchase products despite holding excess inventory of certain product configurations; HP contributed 16% of total revenue in Q1, up from 14% in Q4 [...] Q2 guidance contemplates no large deals but these deals are expected to close in 2H'13. We believe these are web-scale/cloud projects (both IB and Ethernet). Mgmt expects sequential growth in each of the remaining quarters in 2013. In addition, mgmt is gaining momentum in design wins for storage, data analytics, and database systems.
Choi cut his estimates for this year to $416 million and $1.33 per share from a prior $448 million and $1.80.

text: What do you guys think of bringing in Brady Quinn if Matt Moore is not back with the team next year?? I know he's not starter material but as a backup he'd be okay. Plus, I saw Jeff Ireland come down and talk to him on the notre dame sideline last week. Just a thought.

Patch 46 commented! Even as i was going through this patch, i thought it was simple. just add some entries to /proc, right?
I underestimated how much of a pain it is to dig through incomplete code. after documenting all 391 lines of the stuff, I'm convinced that this version is being called by nothing, to accomplish nothing. later patches touch this file, however, so *shrugs*.
I went to a great dylan rymes show the other day. one of the neatest things was that he plays the stuff that my local associates at xaphan.us are playing.. then takes it farther. starting up, it sounded like xaphan's regular monday night show.. but then it built into something amazing.
other than that, i'm still job hunting, after 5 months. i've out-stripped the job market in the local area. the most advanced stuff i can find to do is port $EVIL_COMPANY's applications from one version of *nix to another, and i don't *write* non-free software, so thats out. Ugh. I guess its time to move out of the area.
one more patch down.. some 52 hunks to work through before i start actually laying hands on this stuff.

Deceased sophomore identified, Sept. 6
Posted September 6, 2004; 05:03 p.m.
A sophomore who was found deceased in her dorm room bed yesterday afternoon has been identified as Melissa M. Huang of Mechanicsburg, Pa. She was 19.
Huang was found at 1:28 p.m. yesterday by a University custodian and her parents, who had arranged to meet their daughter on campus. The cause of death remains unknown, however police officials have ruled out criminal activity. An autopsy was scheduled for Monday, Sept. 6, by the Mercer County Medical Examiner's Office.
Huang came to Princeton from Cumberland Valley High School, where she graduated with honors in 2003. There, she participated in cross country and track and field, including the successful 4x800 relay team.
At Princeton, Huang was a student in the School of Engineering and Applied Science. She spent this summer working on a chemical engineering research project with Professor Jeffrey Carbeck, director of the Program in Engineering Biology, and Ilhan Aksay, professor of chemical engineering and head of the Ceramic Materials Laboratory. She was a resident of Wilson College.
Survivors include her parents, Leon Keng-Lock Huang and Sauling Huang; a brother, Kevin, and a sister, Alina, all of Mechanicsburg, Pa.
After the tragic discovery, President Shirley M. Tilghman and other University officials met with Huang's parents and Wilson College students to offer comfort, counseling and guidance. University Health Services is open 24 hours and students may also call the Counseling and Psychological Services team at 258-3285.
Funeral arrangements are pending. A memorial service will be held on the Princeton campus at a later date.

I-Spy another swap hosted by Yosamitesa!!! . 6 squares, up to 6 sets.
I-Spy is the theme!!! Almost anything goes...please keep it gender neutral and remember most will be used in quilts for babies and children.
Registration is open to the first 130 Sets or until September 13th, whichever comes first.
Group Activity Page is: http://www.quiltingboard.com/group_a...sp?gracnum=198
Each swapper will submit 12 6 squares of any 1 UN-WASHED 100% cotton fabric (check the end of the bolt to make sure it reads 100% cotton) that encompass any fun I-Spy such as, but not limited to, animals (not too scary), food, pets, etc. *(If you have any questions please ask.)
Squares should be carefully rotary cut from UN-WASHED 100% cotton fabric. If needed, please take the time to fussy cut. Make sure you completely cut off the selvage ends. Select fabrics that will hold up to a lot of love, wear, and tear as well as washing. Fabrics that fray easily, or are fairly easy to see through are not good fabrics for this swap. Please be advised that fabrics that are NOT appropriate related fabrics, squares that are not square, those that are not the right size, those with the selvage edge still attached, or those that are deemed unusable by me will be returned unswapped. Please make sure you remove selvage edges before you cut.
I will accept squares 6 7 as most of us will use them as is. Anything less than MY 6 measurement will be returned. If you are unsure of your accuracy, over-sized squares will be accepted as they can be cut down to size if need be... please nothing over 7. Approximately 1/3 of a yard will yield 12 count 6 squares, however if you want some of the fabric or are fussy cutting, make sure you get ½ of a yard to ensure you have plenty.
*~*~* Please PM me all the info below: *~*~*
Board name:
How many sets you're doing:
Date when you plan ship your package by:
Your real name:
Your mailing address:
*After I have received all of the info I will add you to the list of swappers and send you a message with shipping instructions.
Heres how it works: - In your packet (flat rate envelopes work great and will hold up to 6 sets beautifully) to me you will enclose:
** 1 quart size (Hefty/Ziploc) slider bag with 12 count 6 squares of ONE fabric for each set. Fabric must be UNWASHED, ironed and in quart size bags for safe passage thru USPS. *Please remember that each set should be cut from a DIFFERENT unwashed fabric and in SEPARATE baggies.* There is a SIX SET limit in this swap.
** Write your screen name ON your baggies along with SET amounts. For example, if I wanted to do 4 sets (i.e. 12 6 squares of 4 DIFFERENT fabrics), I would write YosamitesaX4 on the bag in a Sharpie or pen that will not rub off or on a label attached to the baggie.
** Please staple a piece of your fabric on the outside of the baggie.
A piece of your fabric is required stapled on the outside of the individual baggie for identification purposes. (See picture)
** Include sample pieces of each of your fabric stapled to 1 small piece of cardboard/cardstock/paper/etc. The fabric must be big enough for me to determine which fabrics you sent in; approximately 2x3 from your left over fabric is perfect. Also include on the paper your board name, your name and your mailing address (an address label works great). (See picture) My goal with this is so that I will NOT give you any of your fabric back. This helps me keep up with what everyone sent in as a quick reference, since I will have (hopefully) over 100 sets and a toddler who gets into EVERYTHING!
** Also in your package include a self-adhesive return address label, and return priority postage of $4.95 DO NOT SEND YOUR OWN ENVELOPES. Should you require delivery confirmation, (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!) an additional $.70 is required (total with delivery confirmation is $5.65). Please remember that if you do not send enough return postage I will not be able to return your swapped squares until you send me the difference. IF YOU DO NOT SEND AT LEAST $4.95, I will return your squares unswapped. After 30 days, I will donate the unclaimed squares to charity. Due to quick turn-around I WILL NOT ACCEPT PERSONAL CHECKS!!! Postage stamps, Post Office money orders, or concealed cash at your own risk will be accepted as forms for shipping costs. I would prefer postage if possible. The Post Office sells a $4.95 stamp.
Going to make a change for the mail by date...
I would like to have these in hand no later than 9/21/2011. A post mark no later than 9/15/2011 should give the USPS ample time to deliver without a grace period. After 9/15/2011 PRIORITY shipping is recommended. After 9/19/2011, OVERNITE shipping or FedEx, etc. is required.... International members need to send them to me sooner- PM for details.
Please remember that any packages received after 9/21/2011 will be automatically returned unswapped. Any member not fulfilling commitment will not be accepted in any of my future swaps and negative feedback will be posted to members account per Moderators requirements.
I will then sort 9/22 9/29 and hope to mail out squares on 9/30/2011 No later that 10/3/2011.
Any questions please pm me. I'll be happy to assist any way I can.
Happy quilting everyone!!!!

By Brad Locke/NEMS Daily Journal
OXFORD – Ole Miss beat rival Mississippi State twice at Swayze Field on Saturday, by scores of 3-0 and 10-8, in a series that barely got started Friday before rain put things on hold. And now the Rebels (35-16, 14-12 SEC) have the luxury of sending ace Bobby Wahl to the mound for today's 1 p.m. finale.
Wahl (9-0, 1.20 ERA) threw one inning on Friday before the rains came, and coach Mike Bianco decided it best to hold him until today.
"We decided that last night but didn't want to announce it and get ahead of ourselves," Bianco said. "It's great to have your ace out there, and there's not a guy we'd rather run out there on any of the days."
Mike Mayers (4-4), the normal Saturday starter, drew the Game 1 assignment when play resumed and tossed seven shutout innings, allowing just two hits to the No. 21-ranked Bulldogs (36-15, 13-13). It was his longest SEC outing of the season.
Mayers said getting slugger Hunter Renfroe to ground into a double play with the bases loaded in the third inning was "a real turning point for me. … I've been the guy to give up a run or two in that situation, so that was huge for me, and obviously huge or our team to get out of."
Auston Bousfield had three hits and a career-high five RBIs in Game 2 to lead an 11-hit Ole Miss attack.
Bousfield had only four RBIs over his previous 24 games, and he now has 23 on the season. His bases-loaded triple in the first gave the Rebels a 3-2 lead, and his two-run double in the fifth made it a 6-3 edge.
"Me and coach (Cliff) Godwin have just been working on the cages, trying to simplify my swing, a little less movement in my swing, keep my head still," Bousfield said.
Ole Miss was the first team to score double digits on MSU this season. The Bulldogs kept fighting back in Game 2, bringing the go-ahead run to the plate in the ninth. They finished with 17 hits, including four from Alex Detz.
This is a big setback to MSU's hopes of hosting an NCAA regional. The Bulldogs entered the weekend one game ahead of Ole Miss in the standings and are now one game behind.
"I thought our kids were way too anxious to play these games and didn't let the game come to us at all," Cohen said. "We did not do some basic things on the field to help us win a baseball game."

Real customer reviews from BMW owners like you.
The strut assembly, an essential part of your car's suspension system, is attached to the front wheels and is used to absorb road shock, providing a smooth ride. Most cars made after 1995 have shock absorbers in the rear and strut assemblies in the front suspension. Older cars may have shock absorbers at all four wheels. Faulty or damaged struts affect the ride comfort as well as the braking effectiveness. The strut assembly, located in the front or rear of the car, is basically a shock absorber with a spring coil for additional support. The front wheels have the extra weight of the engine and need extra support to absorb shock from the road. The shock absorber has a piston and a cylinder that contains a gas or liquid substance. The spring is attached to the piston. When you drive over a bump, the piston inside the cylinder moves up and down against the gas/fluid and the spring, absorbing the shock from the bump. The strut assembly takes a beating over time, especially on bumpy roads. It will eventually start leaking the gas/liquid, leaving you with an unstable or rugged ride. With worn out struts, it is possible that the tires could lose contact with the road and/or the tires will wear out prematurely.

Rail Policy Change -- Deleting protections for South Palo Alto
Original post made by Timothy Gray, Charleston Meadows, on Jun 24, 2013
After repeated observations of the City selling out the protections for South Palo Alto, I am alarmed by the following being DELETED from the Palo Alto Rail Policy:
From the consent agenda:
"Deleted: <#>All neighborhoods in Palo Alto affected by HSR/Caltrain should be treated with equal consideration with respect to vertical alignment impacts.¶"
True, there is substitute language that sounds like protection, but the end result is that the Rail Committee, which has no South Palo Alto representation, seems to abandon the "One City, one Policy -- One for all, all for One," policy, and substitutes language that would allow the weighing of other mitigating factors in weighing the above ground and below ground High Speed Rail options.
More directly stated: the policy is being changed to allow a political justification for going underground in the north and implementing the highly divisive and neighborhood wrecking above-ground option in the South.
This is Trojan horse language that will allow the North to be protected with an underground solution and the South to be sacrificed in the case where budgetary constraints will allow a solution for only half of the City.
This is deceptively placed on the consent calendar for the Monday June 24 City Council so that it can pass without any public discussion.
One for all and all for one is the only acceptable policy, and we must demand an "all or nothing" underground route for any future rail configurations.
Best regards,

The following is a link to the revised Rail Policy that removes the requirement that any High Speed Rail configuration be underground vs. elevated.
Web Link
Instead, the wording states: "When examining the potential impacts of vertical rail alignments equal attention shall be given to all Palo Alto neighborhoods. Adopted mitigation measures should be proportionate to the impacts identified in the studies."
While it may sound similar and equitable on the surface, the wording would allow a political argument that the mitigation costs for the Northern portion of the tunnel are proportionate to the impacts identified in the studies, but the tunneling for the south was not proportionate to the impacts identified in the studies.
It opens the door to depart from the commitment that all of Palo Alto deserves the same treatment, and clearly moves away from the notion of One Unified solution for Palo Alto.
I'm sure there is no connection, but the entire Rail Advisory Committee is made up of North Palo Alto residents. Unless the residents speak up, it is clear that a path is being set for a two class rail solution for the HSR route. Residents need to speak up and stop this manipulation.
Best regards,

For grade separations at the Charleston and Meadow rail crossings, the ONLY acceptable configuration is train-in-trench or tunnel. The other options, Charleston and Meadow on overpasses or underpasses, while slightly more costly, are unacceptable on the basis of property takings, closure of side streets, and particularly, regarding safety of school children making the crossing on foot or bicycle. Consider the hazards for children going to the top of an overpass or bottom of an underpass, crossing Alma St., and then returning to grade.

In my previous comment, I meant to write that overpasses or underpasses at Charleston and Meadow rail crossings are slightly LESS costly than train-in-trench or tunnel.

equal attention shall be paid during the examination. and the mItigation proportionally measured how - in dollar terms? (meaning much more expensive mitigations paid in the north vs the south - because property impacts will have higher market values?
In other words - a bunch of pure unadulterated BS. The city council is AGAIN pulling a fast one, more than likely their developer friends who are all about rezoning and densifying are not far behind the curtain on this one.

You are right on target.
I presented a request for a public discussion to the City Council last night, as I urged that a short public discussion would go a long way towards transparency.
With the exception of Greg Schmid, they thumbed their collective noses at the request, and it was clear that my observations were "inconvenient" to their agenda.
Others followed and also urged the council to adopt some "One solution for one city" language. Even though they got caught "with their hand in the cookie jar" they proceeded to eat the cookie in front of us.
It was just a simple request for a minute of discussion and explanation, but to no avail. Another data point.

This does not surprise me but it sure does sadden me to think that elected officials voted in to protect our city and all of the neighborhoods seems to be trying to divide the city rather than make an overall plan to improve Palo Alto moving forward.
Don't miss out on the discussion!

The Obama administration's statement that the government will not be adding to the debt by the middle of the decade clashes hard against the facts, Republicans say, leaving officials straining to justify the budget claim they've pushed repeatedly over the past few days.
As it turns out, the administration is not counting interest payments. That means the budget team plans to have enough money to pay for ordinary spending programs by the middle of the decade. But it won't have the money to pay off those pesky -- rather, gargantuan -- interest payments. So it will have to borrow some more, in turn increasing the debt and increasing the size of future interest payments year after year.

My daughter recently moved from the US to Germany and had the same problem. The Pharmacist in Germany couldn't legally fill her US prescription and she had to get a local MD to issue one. The German Dr. did so with no problems but the prescription had to be local to be acceptable.YeaH a lot of drugs which are legal in US forbiden in Europe, or you need special prescription

I'm about to get a Mongoose XR-comp bike for my "urban" cruising. I'm hoping to get it next month when I get paid. The suspension is mostly not needed for urban terrain but I love the padding...
In Florida the bicycle is legally defined as a vehicle. Bicyclists have the same rights to the roadways, and must obey the same traffic laws as the operators of other vehicles. These laws include stopping for stop signs and red lights, riding with the flow of traffic, using lights at night, and yielding the right-of-way when entering a roadway.
We are planning to ride end-to-end in the UK next summer. Has anyone rented quality touing bikes and panniers over there? We want to do some additional, non-cycle travel and don't want to have to store bikes while we do. Not to mention the cost of flying a bike from Denver to the UK.what city are u going to?

Shutterfly, the online publisher of photos and related products, announced Thursday it would triple its East Coast manufacturing operations with a new production facility in Fort Mill, South Carolina.
Shares of Shutterfly (SFLY) were flat, at $33.10, after-hours. The stock fell 32 cents, or nearly a point, in regular trading Thursday.
The Redwood City, Calif. company said the new, 300,000-squre-foot plant should open in the second quarter of 2013 and will house both production and customer service for the company's four brands: Shutterfly, Tiny Prints, Wedding Paper Divas and Treat. It operates another manufacturing space 10 miles away in Charlotte, North Carolina that will close after the new spot opens.
The company said it expects to retain employees and create jobs. The Charlotte Business Journal's Ken Elkins reports that a local council offered Shutterfly incentives based on more than 400 jobs created, and writes that Shutterfly hires as many as 700 temporary employees during gift-giving seasons.
Founded in 1999, Shutterfly completed the acquisition of Kodak Gallery, which was a unit of the now-bankrupt Eastman Kodak, in the latest quarter. Shutterfly began migrating those customers and their digital photos to its website in July.
It reported net revenue of $99 million and a net loss of $9.5 million, in the quarter ended June 30. The company expects to report net revenue of between $89.5 and $91.5 million in the three months ended Sept. 30, with a net loss of between $28.8 and $30.3 million, or between 41 and 44 cents per share on a diluted GAAP basis.
The quarter ending in December is its heaviest for orders and revenue. This year's holiday season will be the first with former Kodak customers. Hewlett-Packard (HPQ) offers the competing service Snapfish.

National Strategy
Trustworthy Cyberspace: Strategic Plan for the Federal Cybersecurity Research and Development Program
The foreward of this National Science and Technology Council strategy document, written by John P. Holdren (Assistant to the President for Science and Technology and Director, Office of Science and Technology Policy) states,
"This report, Trustworthy Cyberspace: Strategic Plan for the Federal Cybersecurity Research and Development Program was developed by the NITRD agencies and directly responds to the need for a new cybersecurity R&D strategy. As recommended in the CyberspacePolicy Review's near-term action plan, Trustworthy Cyberspace replaces the piecemeal approaches of the past with a set of coordinated research priorities whose promise is to "change the game," resulting in a trustworthy cyberspace. As called for in the policy review's mid-term action plan, this plan identifies opportunities to engage the private sector in activities for transitioning promising R&D into practice. In addition, and consistent with the PCAST recommendations, it prioritizes the development of a "science of security" to derive first principles and the fundamental building blocks of security and trustworthiness.
I am pleased to commend this Federal cybersecurity R&D strategic plan as part of the Administration's comprehensive effort to secure the future of the Nation's digital infrastructure."

The NEW Zoo & Adventure Park is pleased to announce the hosting of our fourth annual "Girl Scout Day" event. The event will take place on Saturday, June 7th, from 10am to 2pm.
The Girl Scout Day event will offer a variety of activities for scouts of all ages to participate in and enjoy. This year's activities will be especially focused on oceans and water conservation topics, in honor of World Ocean's Day on June 8th. All girls are welcome to participate in any of the stations. Girls who are not currently enrolled in the scout program can also learn more about the opportunities available, and register to become a Girl Scout when they arrive. Additional stations, aside from those focusing on water topics, will also be offered by the local Girl Scout council. There will be fun opportunities for all!
A NEW Zoo "panda patch" will also be available for scouts to purchase in the Paws & Claws Gift Shop.
Any zoo guests can participate in these activity stations – not just girl scouts! So don't miss this celebration in honor of our World Oceans. The Girl Scout Day event is free with zoo admission.

Help me build my dream aquarium (hopefully will not be a dream in a few years)
Hey im totaly in love with oscars but have never been able to have a tank big enough for one. But now i plan on making that a reality and i need some help.
In sweden they don't recomend a lone oscar in a tank smaller then 145 gallon but i think that gives room for a few tankmates insted of a lone fish in a tank that size.
I want to get a tank where i can house atleast 1 oscar with several tank mates not like 1 oscar 1 JD 1 severum and that it's done.
Right now i can't have a tank bigger then 141 gallon and then i have to sell my other 2 tanks and thats not an option so the tank has to wait until i get a bigger apartment. but im asking this this early so i have plenty of time doing research about other fish you recomend to house with an oscar.
the 141 gallon tank have a foot print of 59.1"x23.6"
I plan to use 1 fluval fx6 canister for the tank since bigger is better when it comes to oscars.
What would you stock the 141 gallon tank with including oscars?
What tank size would you get for several fish with an oscar? that don't need more filtration then a fluval fx6?

A single Oscar with some silver dollars, bichirs, a single severum, adult pictus cats would work in a 125 gallon. That's 72'' x 18'' x 22''.
Don't know how this thread missed everyones radar all month lol. Yes you could have a few fish with an oscar in a tank that size, assuming thats normal us gallons and inches. And I don't know anyone who thinks that a 145g is the minimum tank size for one oscar, it's a great size tank for them but a 75g is the minimum. You could have a pair in a 145 as long as they didn't hate each other. Im putting together a 90g thats gonna have an oscar and tankmates and it's plenty big."At some point you aren't making the animal more dead...You are just making a bigger mess." - Demjor19

"The world has changed; the competition for jobs is real," President Barack Obama told Americans in his State of the Union address on January 25. "But the future is ours to win."
The U.S. Constitution requires that the President "from time to time give to the Congress information of the State of the Union." Presidents view the speech as an opportunity to inform and inspire the country. Obama spoke for about one hour. He devoted much of that time to his top priority: making the nation's economy stronger.
President Obama challenged the nation's scientists, engineers and business leaders to develop clean energy, improve the nation's high-speed rail system and highways and create jobs. He called on parents and teachers to give every child the chance to succeed. And, he encouraged kids to become teachers. "We need to out-educate, out-innovate and out-build the rest of the world," he said.
Side by Side
As a gesture that they hope to put aside differences and work together, Democrats and Republicans sat side by side. They normally sit on opposite sides of the aisle. Still, differences exist. Following the President's speech, Representative Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, spoke for Republicans.
"We want to work with the President," Ryan said. He also spoke of his party's many disagreements with the President's policies. Ryan called on the government to spend less money.
Can Democrats and Republicans work together? "I believe we can, and I believe we must," said President Obama. "We will move forward together or not at all."

"The state of the Iranian media can serve as a bellwether for understanding where the country is headed. In the past, the restrictions under which Iranian journalists had to operate fluctuated as the political fortunes of conservatives and reformists shifted."
When reformist president Mohammad Khatami entered office in 1997 with a promise of "dialogue of civilizations," journalists inside the country took advantage of the less restrictive environment to address new and controversial topics. But a few short years later, when a conservative backlash occurred, reformist newspapers were closed down and Khatami's ministers were pressured into resigning. Western leaders soon realized that the "dialogue of civilizations" would remain only a slogan.
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's administration was in the opposite camp in 2005 in that it worked in tandem with the security forces to close newspapers and arrest political activists. But in his second term, when Ahmadinejad clashed with Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, one of the first victims of the government crackdown was his media adviser, Ali Akbar Javanfekr, who was arrested and jailed after making critical remarks about the Islamic Republic's dress codes for women. His fall from power was so steep that Ahmadinejad was refused permission to visit him in prison.

I watched it last Saturday on HBO for the first time since hating it in the theater last summer, thinking maybe I'd like it more the second time around. I didn't.Originally Posted by Slicker
I'll tell you what's next on my To Watch list, the next two are The Last Boy Scout and The Program. I just got back from a horror movie convention and among the guests were Danielle Harris (Mike Myers' niece from Halloween 4 and 5) who was Bruce Willis' kid in Last Boyscout and another guest was Andrew Bryzniarski aka Leatherface from the crappy new Chainsaw Massacre movies - but he played Lattimer in The Program which was cheesy but a staple of my high school football experience. So yeah, I haven't seen either of those in a long time and now they are up on my list.
Oh, and I need to watch They Live for the first time in awhile since Rowdy Roddy Piper was there this weekend as well.

Meizu Introduces iPod-Like Video Player

...and Photo gallery support
What video iPod fans have been lusting for, it's just not from Apple
Speculations that Apple will release a video-focused iPod have been circulating online for quite some time now. Hope for Apple users increased when
reports of a prototype video iPod appeared
on the Internet. Later however, it was deemed that the prototype was fake, and was actually not even an Apple product. Apple has yet to announce any details of a portable video player.
Now, a company in China called
Meizu, has now launched its own iPod-like portable video player
. Called the Mini Player, the device is similar in size to current generation iPods, but includes a much bigger screen and allows for playback of XviD video files. Of course, the Mini Player also handles all popular audio formats as well as image formats. Some specifications include:
Display: 2.4-inch 260K color QVGA (320x240) TFT LCD, 100 brightness levels
Memory: 1GB, 2GB and 4GB versions available
Audio support: MP3, WMA, OGG and WAV
Video support: XviD
USB 2.0 interface
Other hardware features: Integrated FM tuner, voice recording capabilities
Other software features: E-Book support, clock, calculator, games
Weight: 55g
The most interesting part of the Mini Player is the fact that it looks very much like Apple's current products. The back of the Mini Player is a chrome shell, similar to current iPods, and the front controls are flush with the body. Meizu also claims that the Mini Player can last up to 20 hours when playing back music and last up to 6 hours when playing back video -- impressive performance compared to Apple's own 5th generation iPod. Equally impressive is the fact that the Mini Player is merely 10mm thick. The new Mini Player will also be available in two color schemes: white/silver and black/silver.
Pricing was not available at the time of this report.

What to eat this weekend (or next week): dim sum at J.S. Chen's Dimsum and BBQ
Heading into the weekend, I probably don't need to remind you that the Chinese New Year celebration continues. If you're looking for great dim sum, you can do no better than J.S. Chen's Dimsum and BBQ in Plano. This is the J.S. Chen's in the shopping center with Asia World Market on Legacy just west of the 75, not the other one nearby.
During the weekend, the dim sum comes around on carts. If you stop in on a weekday at lunch, as I did today, you're given a list of dim sum to check off like sushi. Both methods have their advantages. With a list, you can plan and get exactly what you want. From the carts, I always think everything looks great, so I often wind up ordering too much of the stuff I see right off the bat. Particularly delicious today: shrimp and chive dumplings, pork-vegetable dumplings, half a barbecue duck (wow, that was good — served with pickled veg), gai lan (Chinese broccoli) with hoisin, barbecue pork fun roll, sweet fried sesame balls. If you're a fan of dim sum and you've never been, you're really in for a treat.

Whats is a CERT?
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has promoted and introduced the concept of a Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) using the model created by the Los Angeles Fire Department. States and local jurisdictions including Hawai'i have adopted and are currently using CERTs in their Emergency Management Programs.
The University of Hawai'i and other universities have adopted the use of CERTs by modifying the acronym to "Campus Emergency Response Team" and we have begun establishing, training and equipping CERTs on the Mānoa Campus. The primary Mānoa CERTs will be led by Campus Security personnel as they have 24/7 responsibility and along with other team members will be our first responders to emergencies and disasters. Other CERTs with expertise in Hazardous Materials, Fire Safety, Medical and Facilities Maintenance will also be formed.
CERT training promotes a partnering effort between emergency services and the people that they serve. All members of a CERT receive training from a Certified Trainer on topics that cover Disaster Preparedness, Emergency and Response Management, Fire Safety, Disaster Medical Operations, Search and Rescue, Disaster Psychology, Terrorism and Incident Command Structure. CERT members are then integrated into the organization's emergency response capability. The skills that team members learn through training and exercises can help save and sustain lives following an emergency.
CERT training requires a total of 20 hours of classroom and exercise time. Team members maintain and refine their skills by participating in exercises and activities and can also further their skills through supplemental training. CERT members can volunteer for projects that improve both the University's and surrounding community's emergency preparedness. CERT training may also be arranged for other emergency management volunteers in the UHM community.
Remember and use the term CERT, Campus Emergency Response Team.

NEXT START DATE - March 6, 2017
This course was designed primarily for part-time faculty. Participants learn about the important pedagogical, logistical, and technological issues involved in delivering effective online courses. Participants that complete this course will not necessarily move onto other TOL seminars.
NEXT START DATE - May 12, 2017
The goal of this course is to prepare instructors to build high-quality distance learning (DL) and hybrid courses, and support them in that effort. In order to meet that goal, instructors need quality training on common pedagogical, logistical, and technological strategies. This intensive seminar covers pedagogy, course design, instructional strategies, communication strategies, and online assessment. TOL6100 is offered in a hybrid format that includes a face-to-face kickoff day, eight online modules, a face-to-face roundtable discussion, and a face-to-face culminating final presentation day.
**note- until 2015, TOL6100 included both the training to develop and deliver an online course and the course development itself. Course development support has now been moved to a separate course - TOL7100.
This is a self-paced online seminar course designed to assist faculty with their development of a high-quality distance learning course. The objective of TOL7100 is that participants design and develop an online course and complete a successful Quality Matters course review within one year of TOL7100 start date. TOL7100 is organized into three phases (Getting Started, Design and Development, and Course Review). Each phase provides participants with basic guidance to support the course development. Participants may choose a guided track in which they work closely with an instructional designer (ID) to create a Course Development Plan that contains benchmarks and deadlines, or they may choose an independent track in which there are occasional meetings with an ID to discuss course development issues, but the overall course development process is self-managed.
Alumni of TOL6100 may apply for a seat in the national iON Master Online Teacher certificate program, which is provided by the Illinois Online Network. This rigorous 18-month program recognizes and certifies faculty, staff, and administrators who achieve a measurable level of knowledge related to online course design, online instruction, and other issues related to online teaching and learning. A limited number of spots will be funded each year and stipends available to participants. Faculty who achieve national certification are expected to provide service to the university community in the form of mentoring, course review, and/or workshop delivery. Contact CIRT for more information.
The CIRT Events schedule provides additional opportunities for ongoing professional development from CIRT staff in addition to webinars from national organizations including the Educause Learning Initiative, Academic Impressions, the Sloan Foundation, and the New Media Consortium.

This is unbelievable and very possibly a disaster for all types of birds. Last night we got 13 inches of wet heavy snow, it is still snowing with an additional 9-12" expected by Thursday morning.
It sounds like there are gunshots all over in the woods however, it is sound of trees straining and cracking under the extreme weight of the snow. Trees and limbs are falling making it unsafe to be the woods. Even strong healthy trees are falling without warning.
After this snow quits on Friday we are suppose to get rain through Sunday.
I have hunted under a lot of adverse conditions but this mess has me stumped.
When it quits or lets up; where are the turkeys going to be? Are they going to stay roosted? Will they able to move about on the ground by walking on top the snow? Or will they flounder in it and choose to stay up in the trees?
Right now the snow is too wet and sticky for me to use snow shoes and post holing each step is too tiring.
I have read there were more than 1,660 cold record temps set across the Midwest during April. Literally a spring for the record books.
