Hey there,
I am currently aquiring a Pod HD Pro, and I was curious to see if anybody knew a wise power amp to use with it that is rackmounted as well.
It is being paired with a Randall RT412CX Cabinet, which is a 100w cab with an 8 ohm impedance setting.
Any help would be very much appreciated, because I need to make sure I can get the right power amp and not destroy anything.

Theseare being used with POD HDs and with Axe-Fx.

Seriously consider Rocktron Velocity 300, its a 1u stereo (or mono) 300watt power amp, (150watt stereo or 300watt mono) designed for guitars...solid state and runs very cool...I've had mine for over a year, run it with a Digitech 2120 (soon to be replaced by a Pod HD Pro)...the thing sounds like a valve amp but without the hassle of valves or overheating or tube replacement or being 2/3u high! I gig in a pro band 2/3 times a week...never fails built properly, Rocktron make excellent product...got mine from Thoman on line...get the 300 nothing lower...by the way this is very very loud if you want it to be!

Dude, there are tons of options... Matrix is all the new rage lately, while Rocktron is the other SS contender. Supposedly Fryette is designing a 1u to compete as well. For valve amps you got Mesa 50/50 (what I use because my buddy is lending me his even though I'm jonesing for something that doesn't color so damn much - I require studio and live patches), 2:50 and the 2:90. VHT has some that are regarded as the cat's ass, and even Carvin has one that's supposed to be decent. I know there are more, but these are off the top of my head. Really depends on which tubes you'd want to run too. Recently I saw Glasscloud and their guy was running 2 Axe ultras through 2 Crown PA amps...even though on the Matrix site he's endorsed. That'd be an option too.

The other alternative is to skip the rack completely and go down the powered speaker route. This can work very well for some people depending on tastes and application. There are good FRFR speakers out there that will not colour your sound and have plenty of poke for use either as backline or monitoring ... or both.
QSC and Mackie make some nice gear (amongst others) and it is also worth looking at the new Line 6 offerings (Stagesource L3) which integrate well with the HD series and have a building reputation here for live use with a POD (the L3T).

GOP Convention Thread

Geoge W. Bush just began speaking to the convention.
Anyone else watching? Is it just me or do the maroon "Service" signs being waved by people throughout the hall look like big Hershey bars?
I'm twittering the convention HERE.
Update [2008-9-2 21:58:0 by Todd Beeton]:Umm, did he really just equate the "angry left" with McCain's captors at the Hanoi Hilton?
Update [2008-9-2 22:6:25 by Todd Beeton]:Haha, they scheduled Bush so he ended just before prime time began but the networks are leading their coverage with Bush's speech a few minutes delayed.
Update [2008-9-2 22:30:9 by Josh Orton]: Posted Lieberman's embargoed remarks in the extended entry, just in case you wanted to know what he says without having to watch the full Joementum...
Update [2008-9-2 22:32:59 by Todd Beeton]:Best (and by 'best' I mean fucked up) pundit line of the night: Tom Brokaw on NBC tonight said "I would not like to be Joe Buden debating Sarah Palin because she is going to have a lot of momentum by the time she gets to that debate if things go as well as the Republicans hope they will." Totally.

Text of prepared remarks by Sen. Lieberman
By The Associated Press - 9 minutes ago
Remarks as prepared for delivery to the Republican National Convention
on Tuesday by Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn.:
Thank you for that warm welcome. I am honored to be here.
We meet tonight in the wake of a terrible storm that has hit the Gulf
Coast but that hurts all of us, because we are all members of our
larger American family.
At times like this, we set aside all that divides us, and we come
together to help our fellow citizens in need.
What matters is certainly not whether we are Democrats or Republicans,
but that we are all Americans.
The truth is, it shouldn't take a hurricane to bring us together like
Every day, across our country, millions of our fellow citizens are
facing huge problems.
They are worried about their homes, their jobs, and their businesses;
they are worried about the outrageous cost of gas and of health
insurance; and they are worried about the threats from our enemies
But when they look to Washington, all too often they do not see their
leaders coming together to tackle these problems.
Instead they see Democrats and Republicans fighting each other, rather
than fighting for the American people.
Our founding fathers foresaw the danger of this kind of senseless
partisanship. George Washington himself -- in his farewell address to
our country -- warned that the "spirit of party" is "the worst enemy"
of our democracy and "enfeebles" our government's ability to do its
George Washington was absolutely right. The sad truth is -- today we
are living through his worst nightmare, in the capital city that bears
his name.
And that brings me directly to why I am here tonight. What, after all,
is a Democrat like me doing at a Republican convention like this?
The answer is simple.
I'm here to support John McCain because country matters more than
I'm here tonight because John McCain is the best choice to bring our
country together and lead our country forward.
I'm here because John McCain's whole life testifies to a great truth:
being a Democrat or a Republican is important.
But it is not more important than being an American.
Both presidential candidates this year talk about changing the culture
of Washington, about breaking through the partisan gridlock and
special interests that are poisoning our politics.
But only one of them has actually done it.
Only one leader has shown the courage and the capability to rise above
the smallness of our politics to get big things done for our country
and our people.
And that leader is John McCain!
John understands that it shouldn't take a natural disaster like
Hurricane Gustav to get us to take off our partisan blinders and work
together to get things done.
It shouldn't take a natural disaster to teach us that the American
people don't care much if you have an "R" or a "D" after your name.
What they care about is, are we solving the problems they are up
against every day?
What you can expect from John McCain as president is precisely what he
has done this week: which is to put country first. That is the code by
which he has lived his entire life, and that is the code he will carry
with him into the White House.
I have personally seen John, over and over again, bring people
together from both parties to tackle our toughest problems we face _to
reform our campaign finance, lobbying and ethics laws, to create the
9/11 Commission and pass its critical national security reforms, and
to end the partisan paralysis over judicial confirmations.
My Democratic friends know all about John's record of independence and
Maybe that's why some of them are spending so much time and so much
money trying to convince voters that John McCain is someone else.
I'm here, as a Democrat myself, to tell you: Don't be fooled.
God only made one John McCain, and he is his own man.
If John McCain was just another go-along partisan politician, he never
would have taken on corrupt Republican lobbyists, or big corporations
that were cheating the American people, or powerful colleagues in
Congress who were wasting taxpayer money.
But he did!
If John McCain was just another go-along partisan politician, he never
would have led the fight to fix our broken immigration system or to do
something about global warming.
But he did!
As a matter of fact, if John McCain is just another partisan
Republican, then I'm Michael Moore's favorite Democrat.
And I'm not.
Sen. Obama is a gifted and eloquent young man who can do great things
for our country in the years ahead. But eloquence is no substitute for
a record -- not in these tough times.
In the Senate he has not reached across party lines to get anything
significant done, nor has he been willing to take on powerful interest
groups in the Democratic Party.
Contrast that to John McCain's record, or the record of the last
Democratic president, Bill Clinton, who stood up to some of those same
Democratic interest groups and worked with Republicans to get
important things done like welfare reform, free trade agreements, and
a balanced budget.
Governor Sarah Palin, like John McCain, is a reformer who has taken on
the special interests and reached across party lines. She is a leader
we can count on to help John shake up Washington.
That's why the McCain-Palin ticket is the real ticket for change this
The Washington bureaucrats and power brokers can't build a pen strong
enough to hold these two mavericks.
And together, you can count on John McCain and Sarah Palin to fight
for America and to fight for you! And that's what our country needs
most right now.
What we need most is not more party unity in America but more national
Especially at a time of war, we need a president we can count on to
fight for what's right for our country -- not only when it is easy, but
when it is hard.
When others were silent, John McCain had the judgment to sound the
alarm about the mistakes we were making in Iraq. When others wanted to
retreat in defeat from the field of battle, when Barack Obama was
voting to cut off funding for our troops on the ground, John McCain
had the courage to stand against the tide of public opinion and
support the surge, and because of that, today, our troops are at last
beginning to come home, not in failure, but in honor!
Before I conclude, I ask the indulgence of those in this hall tonight,
as I want to speak directly to my fellow Democrats and independents
who are watching.
I know many of you are angry and frustrated by our government and our
politics and for good reason.
You may be thinking of voting for John McCain but you're not sure.
Some of you have never voted for a Republican before and in an
ordinary election, you probably wouldn't.
But this is no ordinary election, because these are not ordinary
times, and John McCain is no ordinary candidate. You may not agree
with John McCain on every issue.
But you can always count on him to be straight with you about where he
stands, and to stand for what he thinks is right regardless of
As president, you can count on John McCain to be a restless reformer,
who will clean up Washington and get our government working again for
So tonight, I ask you whether you are an independent, a Reagan
Democrat or a Clinton Democrat, or just a Democrat: This year, when
you vote for president, vote for the person you believe is best for
the country, not for the party you happen to belong to.
Vote for the leader who, since the age of 17, when he raised his hand
and took an oath to defend and protect our Constitution, has always
put our country first.
So, let's come together to make a great American patriot our next
great president!

Brazil Dodges Credit Bubble
Fears of a credit bubble in Brazil have been receding recently and figures published on Thursday give further reason to breath easy.
Serasa Experian, a credit analysis company, said its consumer credit outlook index fell to 98.6 in June, its third contraction in a row. That, says the company, means the volume of consumer credit in Brazil will continue to rise only slowly during the second half of this year.

A crusty loaf of Italian bread accompanies many dinners around here and we always have a bowl or two of oil for dipping. This one has rosemary, but you can use oregano, basil or any combination of herbs you like.
- Olive Oil
- Snipped Fresh Rosemary
- Coarse Ground Salt and Pepper
Snip the rosemary. Add salt and pepper. Cover with a rich, fruity olive oil.
Let it sit for a few minutes before serving.

Here's a different kind of DIY with glass. Today it's about speakers. Yeah, speakers, for your stereo. They're pretty cool looking. And appears fairly simple to make. The creator of this DIY is by Randolfo and it's brought to you by Instructables . Thanks Randolfo. He's told the story through a poem. Pretty amusing. You will have to buy things and you may need to know how to weld or know someone that can do it for you. It does really help for this project for you to have access to metal working tools…but don't those speakers look cool?

The Plymouth Fire Department is proud to be sending its Extrication Team to compete internationally in the 2012 North American Challenge Sept. 11-15.
In 2011, Plymouth Fire Department's Extrication Team competed in the Regional Extrication Team Competition in Rockford, Ill. The team's exceptional performance earned it an invitation to the exclusive North American National Tournament that is held in Halifax, Nova Scotia. There will be 30 teams from all over the world, including teams from Germany, England, Switzerland and Canada.
The team's participation in the competition is being paid for by the Plymouth Lions Club, which donated $2,000, along with proceeds from the Plymouth Crime and Fire Prevention Fund's Annual Waffle Breakfast and Golf Tournament. City tax dollars are not being used for the trip.
The extrication competition will take place over five days and firefighters will be attending specialized classes taught by respected leaders in the business and private industry. They will learn new rescue techniques and practice with state of the art equipment. When they return to Minnesota, team members will bring this education with them and host trainings for local fire departments and mutual aid partners.
Congratulations to Lieutenants Chuck Perbix, Andy Etzel, Matt Evans, Matt Nordby and Firefighters Scott Stevenson, Sergio Flores and Grant Collins who make up the Extrication Team.
(Information provided by a city of Plymouth press release.)

Sean Patrick Astin was born on Feb. 25, 1971 in Santa Monica, CA.

Blue Raiders cruise to 3-0 win
MT remains undefeatedSeptember 6, 2008 · MT Athletic Communications
Middle Tennessee won by scores of 25-19, 25-22 and 25-15 led at the net by sophomore Izabela Kozon who knocked down 12 kills.
· Box Score
Senior Ashley Asberry had eight kills and eight block assists in the match to help guide the Blue Raiders on both sides of the ball. Asberry posted a .583 hitting percentage and one service ace against the Lions.
Middle Tennessee won by scores of 25-19, 25-22 and 25-15 led at the net by sophomore Izabela Kozon who knocked down 12 kills.
"We are a hard team to defend because when they focus on one or two players it frees up our other players and they always come through. It was a great team effort for us. Loyola-Marymount has a really low RBI so it is a great win for us," head coach Matt Peck said.
As a team, Middle Tennessee had 39 kills for a .258 hitting percentage. Defensively, the Blue Raiders had 36 digs and eight and a half blocks.
Middle Tennessee held the Lions to just 25 blocks and a .044 hitting percentage. LMU also had just two blocks in the match.
Freshman Stacy Oladinni had eight kills on the day for an .818 hitting percentage with two block assists.
"We had a breakout match for Stacey we were...I think when Sasha Mc Glothin went out yesterday with her injury Stacy realized she had to pick it up some. She was unstoppable tonight, I don't think she had an error. I think she did a great job," Peck said. Middle Tennessee had 13 kills in each match with a .375 hitting percentage in the second set.
Middle Tennessee will be back in action on Friday, Sept. 12 when it travels to Arlington, Texas to compete in the UT-Arlington Hilton Invitational.

"Ozymandias" Analysis
By Percy Bysshe Shelley
Percy Bysshe Shelley was an English Romantic poet who rebelled against English politics and conservative values. (source) His sonnet, "Ozymandias", was written in 1817 during a friendly competition with another friend and poet, Horace Smith. The sonnet tells the story of Egypt's great pharaoh, Ozymandias, or other wise known as Ramses II the great. "Ozymandias" describes the decline of the once powerful and vast empire. Shelley's main inspiration for "Ozymandias" was his strong hatred for tyranny. It is thought that the poem alludes to England's modern rule. (source) Percy Bysshe Shelley wrote "Ozymandias" to forewarn Britain of what their "empire" could become if the authoritarian rule continued. (source) Ironically, Shelley's father was a member of the British Parliament. (source)Ramses' II now inexistent empire described in "Ozymandias", is the result of his refusal to answer his hero calling.
The Poem:
I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: "Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear:
`My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings:
Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!'
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
Audio-Visual Podcast:
Shelley's poem describes the remains of Ozymandias' or Ramses' II Empire. The poem begins with the author recalling a time when he met a traveler from an "antique" land. Antique is a symbol for the ancient land of Egypt. In the line," two vast and trunkless legs of stand in the desert an enjambment is used. Imagery is used to paint a picture of the remnants of Ramses' II Egyptian empire. "Two trunkless legs of stone" are the only remains of a stone statue modeled after Ramses that was once 57ft tall. (source) There is no longer a body or a torso, only two legs standing on a pedestal. Next to the trunkless legs, half sunk into the sand and shattered, is what used to be the statue's face. The face is described to have a "frown and wrinkled lip and a "sneer of cold command". These descriptions are symbols of Ramses' II personality. From the frown and sneer on his face, readers can conclude that he was an angry and fierce ruler. Shelley uses an anastrophe in the phrase "tell that its sculptor well those passions read". Through the inversion of the normal word order, Shelley tells readers that the sculptor was able to capture Ramses II personality and who he truly was through the statue's facial expressions.
In the line: "The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed" the author uses alliteration with the letter "t". Also, Shelley uses the word mock as a pun. In this case, mock is meant to mean both created and ridiculed. In the phrase, "the heart that fed" the heart symbolizes Ramses' II emotions and passions and fed is used as a metaphor, because the heart did not literally feed the emotions and passions to the statue. (source)
Shelley then goes on to describe what is engraved on the pedestal. "My name is Ozymandias King of Kings look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!" When broken down the Greek name Ozymandias has an interesting meaning. The root Ozy means air and the root Mandias means to rule. So, Ozymandias literally means "ruler of air". This is ironic because there is truly nothing left of Ozymandias' empire but air. This name mocks Ramses II and ridicules his rule and works. King of Kings is an allusion to Jesus and symbolizes how important Ramses II thought himself to be. Through the engraving, Ramses II dared someone to challenge him and his works. However, whoever dared to challenge him would end up defeated and hopeless.
In the lines, "Round the decay of that colossal wreck boundless and bare, Shelley uses another enjambment. However, the true irony of the whole situation is that nothing remains. All that is left of Ramses supposed great empire is a decaying and shattered statue. The engraving on the pedestal no longer applies, because his works are vanished and destroyed, he is no longer the "King of Kings".
The last line "the lone and level sands stretch far away" really captures the irony of the sonnet. The once large empire is now just an empty desert, with nothing more than sand for miles and miles. Apart from the destroyed statue there is no other sign that in this desert, there was once a huge and powerful empire.
"Ozymandias" fits with the refusal stage because Ramses II refused his call to be a hero. He became too focused on the present and the difficulties it presented rather than looking to the future as a series of deaths and rebirths. Because of this, his adventure became a negative one. During his reign, Ramses built a worldly empire; in fact, he built more monuments and temples than any other Egyptian pharaoh. (source) However his empire became a "house of death" and completely collapsed and vanished.

News & Events - Engineering News
February 20, 2013
Cyborgs, with often powerful and dexterous robotic components, have been a standard part of science fiction for decades. In reality, it has been a bit more of a challenge, as engineering research has struggled to create artificial limbs that can even approach the control and utility of their natural counterparts, much less surpass them.
Scientists at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland have taken a critical step along the road, however, creating the first ever prosthetic hand with a bidirectional connection to the body's nervous system.
The idea of tying in prosthetics controlled directly by the nervous system is not entirely new, though it has not progressed particularly far at this point. However, these devices lack the crucial aspect of feedback that organic body parts offer, which has contributed to the problem that roughly half of all amputees do not regularly use their prosthetics.
The EPFL team, led by Silvestro Micera, presented its results at the recent annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, showing how signals could be sent into the ulnar and median nerves in the arm and still have clear signals sent back, allowing a patient to grasp an object with a prosthesis not even attached to their body.
"We could be on the cusp of providing new and more effective clinical solutions to amputees in the next years," Micera, also a professor at the Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna in Italy, said in a statement.
Prosthetics that are capable of providing steady and comprehensive feedback could open up the potential for these devices, making it possible to give amputees a degree of dexterity that would be effectively impossible with unidirectional signals.
This is not the only major advance in bionic body parts either, with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration deciding this month to allow the first ever retinal implant visual aid. The device effectively replaces damaged retinal cells with an implant that receives wireless signals from a pair of glasses sporting cameras, video processing units and a transmitter.
The device is intended for use only by patients suffering from the rare condition known as retinitis pigmentosa, a degenerative disorder of the eyes, and was only approved for use as a humanitarian aid. However, further development of the device could lead to a greater ability to interact with complex nerve structure, such as those found in the eye.

Statewide Redistricting Meetings Wrap Up This Week
A bi-partisan panel charged with drawing up new congressional boundaries wraps up statewide meetings this week. But the challenge of finishing the work by the end of the legislative session may be a tall order.
Congressional maps are changed every ten years based on census data. Colorado's population didn't grow enough to create a new district – but Colorado Statesman Publisher Jody Hope Strogoff says four of the seven districts need to be trimmed to even the numbers to about 719,000 each.
"But one of the things that they have to keep in mind is they are supposed to keep communities of interest intact. So that means counties that are alike or different groups that are represented should be kept whole as they say," Strogoff says.
The process of redistricting has been contentious in the past and was decided in court during the last go around. Both sides hope to avoid that by drawing up a new map before the middle of April to give lawmakers time to finalize the plan before adjourning in May.
Public meetings will be held in Castle Rock tonight, in Boulder Tuesday night and in Grand Junction on Saturday. All meetings start at 6 p.m.

USGS Participates in Women of Science and Technology Day
USGS Alaska Science Center (ASC) and Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO) scientists will participate in the 21st annual Women of Science and Technology Day in Anchorage, AK on February 2. The event is designed for girls in grades K8 to attend workshops in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) and give them a chance to meet women who have careers in science and are passionate about science. Kirsten Barrett's (ASC) activity on wildfires in the boreal forest will address how variations in fire severity affect re-growth post-fire. The children, ranging from kindergarten to third grade will act out two scenarios of a severe and a light burn, and how these differences affect succession. The unit encourages children to think about the impact of vegetation changes on wildlife through interactive play and post-activity show and tell and discussion. Kim Kloecker (ASC) will teach students how sea otters help scientists investigate the health of the nearshore ecosystem through a mock sea otter capture and data collection activity and volcanologist Tina Neal (AVO) will lead workshops exploring the science of volcanoes and earthquakes and how scientists study these phenomena. The hands-on activities will encourage students to use their senses to help them understand how a volcano works.

All courses require homework assignments on a daily basis. Students should spend a minimum of two to three hours each day reviewing, studying, and, in general, fulfilling the responsibilities of each class. Home study reinforces concepts, skills, facts, etc. Working independently, students develop confidence in a given area. Questions which arise while doing an assignment may be addressed at the beginning of the next day's class, supporting the presentation of followup material. Working collaboratively with a classmate can be a mutually beneficial experience; however, copying another's homework is cheating and negates the benefits each student derives from her assignments. While some time for study is built into each student's schedule, additional home study should always be considered necessary. Individual learning styles should determine the study environment most conducive to achievement, whether in school or at home.
Students who fail three or more subjects in one year are not readmitted to Fontbonne Academy the following year. Students who fail one or two required subjects for the year must successfully complete an approved summer program to make up the academic credit. Students who fail to do so will not be allowed to return in September. The grade earned in the summer program does not replace the original failing grade and is not counted into the student's overall GPA. Seniors who fail one or more subjects required for graduation are not allowed to participate in the graduation ceremony, but they can make up the credits and receive a Fontbonne diploma upon successfully completing an approved summer school program.
FontbonneAcademy provides computers to enhance the educational experience of its students. Computers are located in various sites throughout the buildings. Students are expected to exercise this privilege in a manner consistent with the educational objectives of the school.
Any activity which is disruptive or offensive to other students or adults is subject to disciplinary action. Students who use school computers for unethical, illegal, personal, or mischievous purposes will be referred to the Assistant Head of School for Student Life for disciplinary action and will lose their computer privileges. For additional information about this policy, refer to the Student Handbook.
A Fontbonne woman is expected to be a woman of integrity in all of her relationships with others; social, professional, spirtual, and academic. Academic integrity is just one aspect of the personal integrity which the Academy hopes to develop and foster in each community member. Academic Integrity at Fontbonne is an all-embracing philosophy and policy which is a natural outgrowth of the definition of a Fontbonne woman, the 4Rs of respect, responsibility, reconciliation, and reverence, and the Mission Statement. Academic Integrity includes all student/teacher, student/administrator, student/student, and student/parent interactions and relationships. All forms of work (written and oral) and all forms of assessments (tests, quizzes, papers, projects, reports, presentations, homework) fall under its heading. Academic Integrity means being honest and taking responsibility for one's own work. It means demonstrating self-respect for others by doing one's own assignments and giving credit to those whose words or ideas may have been used in the course of doing those assignments.

I first met Phyllis at Ad Astra, the Toronto area science fiction convention. She and I were co-panelists on the very first panel I ever sat on. I was 17 and I'd just sold my first story. Phyllis was well into her senior years. She was delightful. I don't remember what the subject of the panel was, but I remember the warmth and wit with which Phyllis engaged with little pipsqueak me, the welcome she made me feel as a freshman writer. I have never, ever forgotten that -- the author of O Master Caliban! deigning to notice me, much less treat me as a colleague.
Phyllis and her husband Kelly were palpably, achingly in love (Kelly once had my father in his university physics class, a class he never forgot). We had dinner together in 2007 at Ad Astra, and the two of them were the epitome of sweet old married coupledom, finishing each others' sentences, helping each other in a million tiny and affectionate ways.
By my reckoning, Phyllis was 82 when she died (I don't know the details of the death). I can only hope that when I'm 80, I'll be as sharp, productive and good-spirited as Phyllis was when I last saw her. Science fiction has lost one of its greats today, and Canada, too. My sincerest condolences to her family. You are missed, Phyllis.
(Thanks, Lorna)

What beautiful and heartfelt sentiments. I'll have to read her work.
Candas says:
That is like so many Phyllis stories: full of her grace and charm. I also loved her weird and quirky intelligence and wit. She was such a great writer too, bringing the same weird and wonderful world view to both poetry and SF, and with a style all her own. She was still writing and publishing too–totally a model for us all. It's hard to lose her.
Thanks Cory for posting this. For those in or near Toronto, details of her funeral will be posted at

I still fondly remember Sunburst. I must have read it three or four times in high school.

My condolences to all her loved ones… I only discovered her work about a year ago, but "Flesh & Gold" & "Blue Apes" immediately went to my 'favorites' list… (along with Candas Dorsey's "Black Wine") ;-)

Outcome or impact evaluation allows program planners to measure program impact, describe successes, document lessons learned, demonstrate accountability, and advance the state of knowledge.
Case Studies
Formative Research
In-depth Interviews. As part of a multi-phase formative research project for the Immunization Safety Office at CDC, we completed in-depth interviews using a series of clinical scenarios to understand clinicians' knowledge, beliefs, decisionmaking, and reporting practices regarding vaccine adverse events. Findings from this study will be used to guide communication strategies to improve clinician reporting to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System.
Risk Communication. To develop risk communication framing of messages to explain complex environmental health issues such as chemical exposure data and health effects of climate change for a wide range of nonscientific audiences (policymakers, Congressional staff, mothers of young children, and emerging green consumers), Westat conducted formative research that integrated both primary and secondary data. This included a comprehensive literature review, media analysis, audience segmentation and audience profiling, expert panels, focus groups, and a case study analysis.
Materials Testing. To assess the effectiveness and appeal of different communication materials and messages around congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections, Westat is conducting a survey with members of an existing national web panel. Findings from the survey will provide insights about the relative appeal and impact of two different CMV communication materials on target audience knowledge, attitudes, and behavioral intention.
VERBTM. It's What You Do. Westat has pioneered methods for assessing exposure to behavior change communication campaigns. For the Congressionally mandated outcome evaluation of CDC's VERBTM campaign, which aimed to increase physical activity among children, Westat conducted a national RDD survey of nearly 8,000 parent-youth dyads in four longitudinal panels and one cross sectional sample, oversampling in high dose communities. We were able to demonstrate increased physical activity as a result of exposure to the campaign and detect dose-response effects, using propensity scoring for confounder control. Findings from this evaluation were published in over a dozen peer-reviewed publications.
BOM. As part of its efforts to reduce teen dating violence, the Blue Shield of California Foundation created Boss of Me, an intervention that empowers 14–18 year-old teens through new media tools to build healthy relationships and defuse conflicts. Westat developed a 7-point methodology to evaluate the impact of this social media campaign and used the evaluation findings to develop best practices for future youth-targeted social marketing campaigns.
EX Smoking Cessation Campaign. We conducted an outcome evaluation for the American Legacy Foundation's EX smoking cessation public education campaign. Our primary evaluation tool was a longitudinal RDD telephone survey of current smokers aged 18–49 in eight designated market areas (DMAs). To guide future media efforts, two DMAs received a "higher dose" of advertising than the others. The evaluation design permitted comparison of high- and lower-dose DMAs.
