The Academy recognizes educators who have demonstrated leadership in education and are committed to improving learning across the UT System.

Selection Process for Academy Members (2013-2014)

Between four and six new Academy members will be selected.
Nominations must be submitted to UT System by the president or provost. Each institution may nominate no more than two past Regents' Outstanding Teaching Award winners for Academy consideration.
All Regents' Outstanding Teaching Award winners are excellent teachers. Membership in the Academy will be based on extraordinary contributions in the classroom and to the educational mission of the UT System, as demonstrated in:

All application materials are due to UT System by December 15, 2013 .
Recognition of Academy Members
Academy membership is a prestigious honor. To maintain the high caliber of the Academy, membership will be recognized in both immediate and ongoing fashions.
Who is eligible to be nominated for the Academy?
First, nominees must be past recipients of the Regents' Outstanding Teaching Awards. In addition, nominees must be either faculty who have earned tenure (i.e., associate professor or professor) or non-tenure-track individuals whose primary role is teaching and who hold academic titles such as senior lecturer or distinguished senior lecturer.
Is a tenure-track faculty member currently under review for tenure eligible?
A tenure-track faculty member going up for tenure may be nominated to the Academy during the same year that his/her tenure case is considered. If the faculty member is selected by the review committee, his/her induction into the Academy will be contingent upon his/her earning tenure.

If you've been following the #AskThree hashtag on Twitter, you'll know that I've just signed off from the @ThreeUK account, having spent the last 2 hours answering your smartphone questions. From software updates to ranging decisions – you asked it all. And the HTC fans amongst you will have spotted one Read More.
Spectrum update.
You might have seen or heard about mobile phone spectrum in the news recently. It's a topic that's been brought into focus by the planned 4G spectrum auction due to take place next year, and it's a subject that's really important to us.
Why? Well, put simply, radio spectrum is the lifeblood of a mobile network. It's the radiowaves that carry your mobile calls, send your texts and connect you to the internet, and as a result, the spectrum up for sale at next year's auction will be hugely important in shaping the quality and type of services mobile networks will offer in the future.
Here's a quick potted history of how spectrum has been distributed in the UK to date.
#AskThree about smartphones.
We're back with our second #AskThree session on Twitter! Last time we were on hand to answer all your questions about Three and all-you-can-eat data, this time we're giving you full access to our Devices team so you can grill us about smartphones.

I was pleased (and strangely reassured!) to see that so many of you were as excited as I was about the 97% data stat I blogged about a couple of weeks ago.

I have to disagree. There is exactly one change they need to make to Outland, and that's give Hellfire Peninsula some colour. Look at the worgen starting zone for example, every questing hub and related area is a different location and looks very different. You get to Hellfire Peninsula, and it's just all orange, all the time. It is not a very good first impression for Outland, not by a long shot.
I remember the first time I went through HFP. I was bored to tears before I even got to Falcon Watch. It's far too much orange.

Transportation: What's better then no commute?
Overall Experience: It's a distance learning program!
Majors: I have not had an internship here, I do not even think they offer them.
Majors: I am not happy at all but I want to just finish school and get my degree.
Campus Housing: There is no campus housing, it is an online school
Computers: I have not been to any computer labs since I go online
Facilities: With Thomas Edison you have access to use the New Jersey state library which you can access documents online. I am currently using this for a research paper
Campus Dining: This is an online school but many can just look up restaurants in the area, probably best to head in the Lawrence or Hamilton area.
Diversity: Diversity in a college doesn't matter to me. I'm happy not having to deal with other people.
Overall Experience: I haven't had any problems with the school. Every potential problem I had was fixed immediately.
Scholarships: I simply sent my tax information to the school and was accepted for Army Tuition Assistance and financial aid.
Majors: I had no problem getting into my degree. The Army backed up my admission.
Majors: I have not had an internship. Being in the military doesn't allow me to go to an internship.
Off-Campus Dining: Even though I don't live in the area, a simple Google search pointed me to a few very well ranked restaurants in the New Jersey area.
Scholarships: I didn't have a problem with financial aid at all. I got a hold of the office when I contacted them.
Facilities: I just started this school so I'm not really sure what sets this school apart from other schools.
Facilities: I just started TESC, so I'm not fully aware of the online resources including the library.
Academics: Online courses tend to be demanding and I find that all of my professors that i have encountered have been helpful and professional. Some have different expectations of the students than others but that comes with each persons different personality.
Diversity: Being an online student at TESC I have met people from all over the United States and with many different ethnical backgrounds and experiences.
Majors: Good variety of online degree programs, but they could definitely add more. I hope they will add more graduate programs because I would love to do my MA through Thomas Edison.
Weather: NJ weather is great if you like having four seasons and don't mind rain, snow, sleet, and ice during the colder months.
Scholarships: Process was fairly smooth, but contacting Financial Aid at the school was a little difficult.
Local Atmosphere: Trenton has one of the highest murder rates in America, alongside Camden, Newark, Detroit and Miami. There is no atmosphere, everyone is afraid to go into Trenton at night. I have tried to start get togethers and clubs , but it is impossible since the students are from all over the country . There are no sports, so no opportunity for sports scholarships. I asked if the college could start internships, but was told that majority of the students are already working. Maybe what I am saying is that I regret wasting my money at this college.
Campus Strictness: Because this is an online school, you have to be very diligent to hand in assignments on time. Some professors will not accept them after the due date- no matter what your excuse is. In my instance I was forced to leave my apartment right after the final essays were due. By mistake I emailed another course's essays. My professor gave me a "D", which I discovered 2 months later since I was living in a homeless shelter ( in a tent) and did not have access to the library to check on my grades ( I had pets which could not be left alone as teh other residents were not dependable and someone had their dog stolen- I was not leaving my older dog alone) . He never even bothered to send me an email saying that I sent the wrong essays. I fled my apartment for fear of my life, it wasn't like I was on vacation. I had to live in a Tent City homeless shelter and had no access to the internet. The professor refused to sign the papers for a grade appeal, so I had to take a D and repeat the class in September.
Campus Housing: There is no housing as this is an online college , run by the state of NJ.

Oh yeah, my votes:
As for the growing Space Wars story, I'd prefer a story woven at the end overlooking the entire thing. Since everyone fights everyone else, it's gonna be a horribly cluttered up story of all sorts of fights. Inevitable internal-strife will probably land at critical moments of the campaign and you'd need to figure out how to explain those away.

Let's guess on how much Yurie will lose to Tomoyo by. I will guess 180, and I'm being generous.

370 without the multi-votes.
Well, I mentioned that a cookie will prevent voting more than once, but it's so easy to clear a cookie from your history that people tend to think, "Oh, this guy isn't so smart - I can tack on 1000 votes and not get caught." The truth of the matter is, in Saimoe contests in general, there's always someone who takes a look at the votes in general, and ISML doesn't have a system where votes are announced immediately after results are closed - for a good reason. I tend to check over all votes carefully after the conclusion of each match to make sure that there's nothing that gets past me. |

If KholdSecks got too many KyoAni/Type-Moon/Negima voters, this may tip it more. As for the thingie I was talking about for the space opera, I think a layout like this would be good. The ones I filled in are important. And Fate/Stay Night and Negima should be seperate because of their large voter bases. So they're non-KyoAni, but they're neutral. EDIT: Topaz -> Sun, right? I should prepare a bit in advance this time.

Well, I posted one last reminder over in MAL before this match ends. I look forward to very interesting results, since I don't know, we might have new voters.
@qtip: We need to vote for the profile pictures soon, I think.

Though you are right in that for the story to make logical sense its best to engineering it after everything is over and not during (though the countless quips and comments we are already making now will come in handy later as guidelines/ideas). However, it may be that once ISML is over and done people will migrate over to doing other things (I for one will probably do so) and may not be that keen on writing things for this then... Quote:
The 'space opera' feel was a bonus. A more 'formalized' space opera map can be done too (in fact take the opportunity to relook the exact placements of Kyo-ani since in this map we're not bound by the standings of the characters) but the 'visual representation' objective will come first. But I have a feeling the formalized map will 'look' better and jive better story-wise if, like Psieye suggests for the story itself, it is decided 'after the fact' when everything is over. If Shana hangs doggedly to top position or near top position for a long time, I'm tempted to place her in a Iserlohn-ish position

Ahaha, that is true - once the main event is over we're likely to move onto other stuff. It's worth noting that ISML is a two-parter, with the first part being the League and then the double elimination afterwards. Buuuuuuuuuuut..... that 2nd part happens when the other Saimoe contests start and we'd be way busy over there too...
In this world, there are more possibilities than the time and energy to make realities.

Full results to be officially announced at 0300 GMT (11:00 PM EST), the reason being that I am also working on the standings and the Topaz schedules at this point. The winner of the Aquamarine Necklace is below, but that's all I'm revealing until 11:00.
If anybody wants to try making a victory poster, be my guest. Spoiler for Aquamarine Winner:

If you want it to be featured on the website, width can be between 500 and 640, height can be between 480 and 700 and the logo has to be on it somewhere. Preferably, have her in a Cyan/Turquoise/Aqua dress wearing the necklace, but that's like almost uber impossible.

Actually, it's not very impossible. Well, the dress is, but remember that she does wear Alastor, so we *could* replace it with something aquamarine.

This could be hard, since most Shana pictures in a dress have yuri implications with Kazumi. Does anyone still have that episode about the school festival?
Qtip and Marina? Is there a vectored version of the logo you could put it up on some file sharing site or something?

Treva Odell, an Augusta resident says, "it's not about the gifts, it's all about the appreciation of a man of their father."
"It's not all
about money, it's the sentimental value of the gift," says resident, Tiffany Brannen,
Another resident, Fran Garcia, says Father's Day is about "just showing love and appreciation."
Loving and appreciating the father-figure in your life is what these women say Father's Day is all about. Like most holidays, the day has become more commercial and attached to giving gifts. After some digging, I found a list on www.abcnews.com of the top gifts for any budget. The gifts range from lottery tickets to a 'bucket list' vacation.
Tiffany Brannen says she hopes that her gift to her father will invoke a memory which is the number two gift on ABC's list of gift ideas for budgets big and small.
That list also includes giving dad a dream, pampering him, giving dad bragging rights and upgrading things he uses; all gifts ranging from ten to a thousand bucks. But Brannen already had her gift in mind.
Brannen explains, "I think a nice picture in a frame would be the best father's day gift."
She says she doesn't have a lot of money, but wants her father to know he is appreciated. Brannen says, just like ABC, she believes in giving gifts that are practical and memorable. "I usually ask him if there's anything he needs. He owns his own shop. So, whatever tools he might want."
Regardless the thought or gift, Brannen says she hopes every father feels special on Father's Day.
Happy Father's Day again, from us here at Television Park.

Ballard Memorial product Jones drafted by PadresOn the final day of the Major League Baseball draft, the San Diego Padres picked former Ballard Memorial star pitcher James Jones in 33rd round. Jones turned down a chance in 2009 to go pro when Cleveland drafted him in the 45th round. Instead of going pro, Jones opted to return to school. After wrapping up his college career at UL-Monroe, Jones got the call he's been waiting on.

The problem with having a head clear of concerns for spouse, kids, pets, finances, and obligations, the problem with having the world at my fingertips……?
first world or third world... either way, this made me smile. It's great to know that you are setting an example of consciousness for one's self. That acupuncture move was awesome! Great for mental health! Small things like these make motivates me to be more mindful. In the other hand, I wish the individuals involved in the third world problem or merely happened to be in the situations like... are at this level of consciousness, being mindful of one's self. I have been practicing this coz it's one way to change the world. big hug

Assessing the Job Security for Every Member of the Vikings' Coaching Staff
By Tim Arcand ,
Leslie Frazier has the Minnesota Vikings on the verge of making the playoffs.
Even though the Minnesota Vikings' record is much improved over last season, that doesn't mean every member of the coaching staff's job is secure. With their 36-22 win over the Rams on Sunday, the Vikings improved to 8-6 on the season and currently hold the sixth seed in the NFC playoff picture. Still, the NFL is all about what is happening now, and patience is not a virtue exhibited by many fans.
Surprisingly, the Vikings website lists 23 coaches listed on their staff. That's enough to have a coach for every single position on offense and defense, with an extra coach for the holder on field goals.
Excluding the strength and conditioning coach and his two assistants, the five positional-assistant coaches and the assistant to the head coach, that brings the number down to 13.
Perhaps the old adage that too many cooks spoil the broth could be in play with the Vikings. Especially if everyone is not on the same page.
Here's a look at how secure each of these coaches' jobs are as they close out the 2012 season.
What a difference a talented player makes for a positional coach. Offensive line coach Jeff Davidson had his hands full last season after head coach Leslie Frazier released left tackle Bryant McKinnie. In his first season with the team, Davidson had to patch things together using Charlie Johnson at left tackle. During the season, guards Steve Hutchinson and Anthony Herrera both missed four games.
Things have been much better in his second season at the offensive line coach. With first-round draft pick Matt Kalil anchoring the left tackle position and Johnson back at guard, where he has more experience, the Vikings offensive line has played much better this season.
Most of that can be seen in the holes being opened up for Adrian Peterson. He is having the best season of his career and leads the NFL with 1,812 yards rushing.
The line has also done a better job protecting quarterback Christian Ponder. Last season, they allowed an average of 3.1 sacks per game. This season, that average has dropped to 2.1 sacks per game.
As long as Kalil is healthy and can dominate on the left side of the line, Davidson's job is secure.
If yards allowed on the ground is an accurate measure of a defensive line's effectiveness, then Brendon Daly may not get a second year to coach this unit.
This is his first season after taking over for Karl Dunbar, who had coached the defensive line from 2006 to 2011.
From 2006 until 2009, the Vikings defense, behind the strength of the "Williams Wall," was ranked either first or second in the NFL against the run. It allowed an average of 75 rushing yards per game.
That number increased to 102.2 yards in 2010, and again in 2011 to 107.0—prompting Dunbar's release.
This season, the average has increased to 113.3 yards per game. That does not bode well for Daly.
Jimmie Johnson, who played 10 seasons in the NFL as a tight end, became the Vikings tight end coach as a member of Brad Childress' coaching staff in 2006.
There is definitely a dichotomy in talent and contributions from the tight end position this season.
On one end of the spectrum, there is Kyle Rudolph, who is second on the team with 48 receptions and leads the team with eight touchdowns. Both are the most by a tight end since 2009, when Visanthe Shiancoe caught 56 passes and 11 touchdowns from Brett Favre.
On the other end, there is John Carlson, who the Vikings signed to a five-year, $25 million contract. His cap hit this season is $4.25 million. So far in 12 games this season, Carlson has only eight catches—that's $531,250 per catch.
If you want to give Johnson credit for the good season Rudolph is having, then he also needs to take some of the blame for Carlson's lack of contribution.
The positive overshadows the negative, and Johnson's job is secure. As for John Carlson, that's another story.
Defensive backs coach, Joe Woods, celebrates with Josh Robinson, who got the Vikings first interception of the season in Week 3, against the 49ers.
What a difference a year makes.
Last season, the Vikings were signing players off the street to come in and play defensive back. They lost both starting cornerbacks, Chris Cook to an off-the-field incident, and Antoine Winfield to a broken collarbone. The defense gave up a league-leading 34 touchdown passes.
There was only one direction things could go.
In his seventh season with the Vikings, defensive backs coach Joe Woods has some talent to work with in rookies Harrison Smith and Josh Robinson.
Smith, one of the Vikings' first-round picks, opened the season at safety as a starter, and he has not disappointed. He is tied for the team lead in interceptions with three, returning two of them for touchdowns. Third-round draft pick, Josh Robinson, has two interceptions in six starts this season at cornerback.
Eight of the 10 interceptions by the defense this season have come from the defensive backfield. Last season, the Vikings finished tied for last in the NFL with eight interceptions.
The Vikings are ranked 21st in the league, having yielded 24 touchdown passes. While it's not great, it is an improvement.
If the Vikings were willing to stick with Woods after last season, and with some good young talent to develop in Smith and Robinson, there's no reason to expect any changes here.
Woods has done more than enough to assure himself another year on the Vikings coaching staff.
Now, if he can only figure out what to do with Chris Cook, who has not played an entire season in his three years since the Vikings drafted him in the second round of the 2010 draft.
Fred Pagac coached the Vikings linebackers from 2006-2010. When defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier was named interim head coach in 2010, he named Pagac as his successor at defensive coordinator.
He held the position through the 2011 season. Following the season, he was given his old job back for the 2012 season.
In his one season as coordinator, the Vikings defense dropped from 18th in the NFL to 31st in points allowed. Its ranking against the pass dropped from ninth to 26th, and against the run from ninth to 11th.
Obviously, he was not the answer at defensive coordinator.
As the linebacker coach, or rather, one of the linebacker coaches, Pagac has Chad Greenway, the NFL's leading tackler, under his direction. He also has the challenge of coaching two inexperienced players in Erin Henderson and Jasper Brinkley, who came into the season with a total of six years experience in the NFL, but only 15 starts—11 of them by Henderson last season.
With the lack of experience, this was an area of concern for me. Behind the leadership of Greenway, the unit has exceeded expectations.
As long as Frazier is the head coach, Pagac has nothing to worry about—his job is safe.
It would seem that being a coach in the NFL is as much about who you know as it is of what you know.
Leslie Frazier originally brought in Mike Singletary, his former Chicago Bears teammate, to coach the linebackers when Fred Pagac was promoted to defensive coordinator.
Frazier also gave the former San Francisco head coach the title of special assistant to the head coach—a title that Tony Dungy had bestowed upon Frazier when he coached in Indianapolis.
With only three linebacker positions, it's a head-scratcher that the Vikings would need two linebacker coaches.
Without any idea what the special assistant to the head coach does, I cannot say if Singletary's job is secure or not.
He'll probably be on Frazier's staff as long he wants, or until he is offered a coordinator position or gets another shot as a head coach.
So, he'll probably be on Frazier's staff for as long as Frazier is the head coach.
I wonder if wide receiver coach George Stewart ever told running back coach James Saxon or special team coordinator Mike Priefer to back off. In his sixth season with the Vikings, he's had to share his best weapon—Percy Harvin.
Harvin is one of the best in the league at returning kicks and can create a lot of mismatches on offense. He has lined up everywhere on offense, even in the backfield as a running back.
Even with having to share Harvin, Stewart had him leading the NFL in receptions this season.
The problem is that once Harvin was lost for the season with the ankle injury, so was the Vikings passing game. Stewart should sue the Vikings for lack of support, or at least ask for some talent he can develop.
When you look at the underachieving corp of receivers he has to work with, it's easy not to blame him.
On the other hand, good coaches can develop players, not just rely on their receivers' god-given talent to improve a team.
With so little to talent to work with, Stewart gets a pass this season and will have to demonstrate some awfully good coaching in 2013 if he wants to stay employed with the Vikings.
In 2010, the year before running back coach James Saxon joined the Vikings, they were ranked 10th in the NFL in rushing with 121.4 yards per game. Last season, their total increased to 144.9 yards per game and moved them up to fourth in the league. This season, the average has increased to 160.2 yards per game, mostly behind the monster season that Adrian Peterson is having.
The dream job on the entire staff has to be that of running backs coach. At the same time, Saxon has to be careful not to fix something that is not broken.
Peterson is having the best year of his career and needs only 188 yards to become the seventh player in NFL history to rush for 2,000 yards in a season.
While he cannot take all of the credit, Saxon's job is very secure.
This is Craig Johnson's first year as the Vikings quarterback coach and, according to Vikings.com, his 21st in the league.
Either he is not a very good teacher or Christian Ponder is not a very good student.
As the 12th player selected in the 2011 draft, the Vikings need a lot more from Ponder if they have any desire to consistently compete for the playoffs. He needs to contribute more than to not lose the game and hand the ball to Adrian Peterson 25 times a game.
Ponder's performance regressed as the season progressed. He led the Vikings to a 3-1 record without throwing an interception. Since then, he has 12 interceptions in 10 games.
Ponder's mechanics seem all messed up as well. He is constantly throwing off his back foot and has made too many throws across his body, back into the middle of the field. All of these are things that good quarterbacks don't do and a good quarterback coach corrects.
One or the other needs to go.
Mike Priefer has worked for the Denver Broncos and the Kansas Cit y Chiefs before joining the Vikings.
Anyone can coach great players. Great coaches can coach anyone.
In his second year with the Vikings, special teams coordinator Mike Priefer is blessed to have some pretty special players to coach.
Rookie kicker Blair Walsh has been nothing short of spectacular. He is 29-of-32 on field-goal attempts this season, converting all eight attempts from greater than 50 yards. Walsh is also fourth in the NFL with 47 touchbacks on 73 kickoffs. His 117 points places him sixth in the NFL in scoring. It's also the 10th-best single-season scoring total in Vikings' history. He only needs 17 points in the last two games for the second-highest scoring total in franchise history.
Percy Harvin—when he played this season—has been one of the most exciting return men in the game. Harvin has scored five touchdowns on kickoff returns in his four seasons since being selected in the first round of the 2009 draft.
Under Priefer, his return average has improved from 25.5 yards in his first two years to 34.2 over the last two.
On the coverage side of special teams, there has also been an improvement. If the Vikings can prevent Keshawn Martin or Trindon Holliday of the Texans and Randall Cobb of the Packers from returning a kick or punt for a touchdown over the next two weeks, it will mark the first time since 2005 that has happened.
Now if he could only get Chris Kluwe to listen.
Priefer's job is very secure.
Defensive coordinator Alan Williams is in his first year with the Vikings. He and Leslie Frazier served on the same coaching staff in Indianapolis. From 2002 until last season, he was the Colts defensive backs coach.
The biggest improvement the Vikings defense has made under his guidance has been in scoring. Last season, the Vikings finished 31st in the league, giving up an average of 28.1 points per game. This year, they are currently 14th, bringing that average down to 22.0 points per game.
This improvement in scoring has not been accompanied with any improvement in total yards allowed. According to NFL.com, last season, the Vikings finished with an average of 358.2 yards per game. This season, it's only a half-yard better per game at 357.7.
Williams' job is very secure—as long as the defense continues to improve each year.
If only Bill Musgrave had the same success with Christian Ponder as he did with Matt Ryan.
Offensive coordinator Bill Musgrave may very well be one of the coaches to lose his job.
Perhaps in a similar manner to Fred Pagac and Darrell Bevell, Leslie Frazier will demote him to another position and allow him to decide what he wants to stay with the organization.
One of the reasons Musgrave was brought to Minnesota was his success in Atlanta as the quarterbacks coach. Musgrave coached Matt Ryan, selected third overall by the Falcons in the 2008 NFL draft. Ryan made an immediate impact, improving a Falcons team that finished 4-12 in 2007 to 11-5 in 2008.
In the three years they were together in Atlanta, Ryan had a 33-13 record as a starter.
The Vikings were hoping that Musgrave would have the same kind of success with Christian Ponder—it has not happened.
This is Musgrave's third stint as an offensive coordinator. His first, in 2000 with the Carolina Panthers, only lasted four games. He lasted two seasons with the Jaguars from 2003-2004. He was released following the 2004 season after Jacksonville finished 29th in the league in scoring.
So far, the third time has not been the charm for Musgrave.
The Vikings have been trying to recapture the offense they had in 2009 when Brett Favre was quarterback. That season, the Vikings finished second in scoring, with 29.4 points per game. When the average dropped to only 17.6 points per game in 2010, it spelled the demise of head coach Brad Childress.
In the two years with Musgrave at offensive coordinator and Ponder at quarterback, the offense is averaging 21.9 points per game—about one point below the NFL scoring average of 22.8 points per game.
On the positive side, the Vikings own the fourth-best rushing offense in the NFL this season. Unfortunately, it's paired with the worst passing offense in the league.
Something has to give. With any luck, it will be Musgrave.
It all starts with the most visible coach on any NFL team—the head coach. Leslie Frazier is completing his second full season as the Vikings head coach after taking over in Week 12 of the 2010 season for Brad Childress.
As the interim head coach, Frazier led the Vikings to a 3-3 record to close out the 2010 season. Last year, nothing seemed to work for Frazier, and the Vikings fell to 3-13, matching the most losses in a season for the franchise.
Coming into this season, many people, including myself, did not see the Vikings winning more than six games. So, when the team opened the season with a 5-2 record, Frazier was being lauded as a genius and a players' coach that could get the most out of his team.
Then the Vikings lost four of their next five games, and the pendulum swung back with people questioning whether or not Frazier could be successful. There was the sideline squabble with Percy Harvin in Seattle that suggested everything was not right with the Vikings.
Now, two consecutive wins, including their second road win of season at St. Louis, has once again raised Frazier's stock in the eyes of Vikings fans.
Still, his reluctance to pull Christian Ponder in favor of Joe Webb has many people comparing him to Childress, who refused to pull Tarvaris Jackson.
According to Sid Hartman of the Star Tribune, owner Zygi Wilf indicated that Frazier will continue to be the Vikings coach—the proverbial kiss of death if there ever was one.
Still, with the Vikings guaranteed at least a .500 record, a five-game improvement over last season has secured him at least another year with the Vikings.
There will need to be continued improvement in 2013. If the Vikings regress at all, it will cost Frazier his job.

Spiritual partners help one another recognize when a frightened part of the personality is active. They can alert you when you're striving to mask the pain of powerless, for example, by becoming angry, jealous or a victim. When you are not aware that a frightened part of your personality is active, you forget that all is perfect. You forget to relax and enjoy yourself. You become serious, concerned and overwhelmed. But if you were able to say, "I am doing it again! A part of my personality is feeling like the most unworthy person in the universe," then you could all laugh at this.
The pain of powerlessness is still driving our evolution, but in a different way. Instead of reaching outward to change the world in order to avoid it, we must look inward to experience it, to change ourselves, to create authentic power, and act on the healthiest parts our personality that we can access in the moment. For example, we choose to act with patience when we are angry, or to act with appreciation when we are judging. This is a very big change. It is a change in the way that humanity is evolving. Our evolution now requires us to experience consciously all the painful impulses that have created all the painful consequences in our lives and then choose consciously to act instead from the healthiest, most wholesome parts of our personalities that we can access in the moment. Each time we do this, we create authentic power. When we create authentic power again and again, we become authentically powerful. Each experience of unworthiness reminds us, if we let it, that now is the time to create authentic power. To learn more about worthiness, visit SeatoftheSoul.com and read The Seat of the Soul. You can send questions to Gary Zukav at email@example.com, and he will answer as many as he can on his website. More from Gary Zukav Advertisement

With digital photos a lot of the tips and tricks happen "backstage" with programs like Photoshop. I want to show you a very simple way to blur a part of your picture while having a very sharp focus on another part. I use Adobe Photoshop Elements. You can use this link to get a free 30 day trial of PSE.
To get the blur effect, we will be using layers which is GREAT to work with.
1. Open your picture.
2. Go to layer (on the top bar) and make a duplicate layer by selecting duplicate layer. On the right hand side, you will se 2 little blocks each with your picture in them.
3. Go to filters and select Gaussian blur... you can determine how much you want it to blur by adjusting the slide button.
4. Then using your ERASER (on the left hand tool bar) , you erase the parts you want to sharpen /the parts you want to have in focus.
( It's just like having 2 layers. The bottom one is the normal picture and the top one is the blurred one. Now you take away from the blurred one and the bottom one "shines" through!)
5. Go to layer again and click Flatten image
and VIOLA!!! You have a picture that is blurred with a subject in focus.
I hope this is simple enough. If you have any questions, please leave me a comment here and I will check back often and asnwer them in the comment section
Happy picture taking!

LONDONDERRY, VT (June 29, 2009) Magic Mountain, a classic ski area located in southern Vermont, today announced that it is officially selling shares of the mountain effectively offering "ownership" opportunities for skiers, snowboarders and enthusiasts of the mountain.
As the second ski resort in New England to ever offer ownership to its pass holders and customers, Magic Mountain shareholders will enjoy an equity position in the mountain, season pass discounts, reduced ticket prices, and voting rights in operational decisions. Modeled after the Mad River Glen ski area co-op, the opportunity for individual ownership aims to increase customer loyalty, and fund significant upgrades to the resort.
"After reviewing the success of Mad River Glen, we realized that we had a tremendous opportunity to allow loyal fans of Magic Mountain to invest in something special and participate in saving and reviving a classic Vermont ski area," said Jim Sullivan, President, Magic Mountain. "In addition, this offering makes perfect business sense from a capital growth perspective in this current economy where it is difficult to garner support from large investors. This opportunity brings the dream of owning a piece of a ski mountain and having a say in how it is run to individual ski enthusiasts and in particular those who love Magic and what it represents."
Magic Mountain aims to raise $3 million and invest it in the snow-making system, as well as upgrades to lifts, grooming equipment and the main lodge. The resort is now issuing 1,000 shares priced at $3,000 per share, which will enable the setting up of an LLC whereby the new share holders will own 60 percent of the mountain.

Magic Mountain is also hosting an open meeting for anyone interested in being a shareholder on Sunday, July 5. To learn more about this meeting, click here:

African penguins are fun to watch, whether they are feeding, swimming or just hanging around. The Morning Call's Penguin Cam lets you watch their antics at the Lehigh Valley Zoo's Jaindl Penguin Pavilion.
Viewing Times:
Daily, 10 a.m.-3 p.m. (Best time is when they are feeding.) (Note: When temperature is below 35 degrees and/or the pond is filled with ice, they will not be on exhibit.)
Feeding times:
Night Time: These penguins are an endangered species and highly threatened. The zoo must protect them from predators throughout the evening hours, so they are placed in a secure, climate-controlled holding facility each night.
The live video feed is provided by The Morning Call in partnership with the Lehigh Valley Zoo, Schnecksville.

See How Many Calories You Need To Burn Using A Weight Loss Calculator
published by: weightlosscalcul
on: Oct.24.2010 @ 2:47 pm
A weight loss calculator is a simple way to predict how many pounds you are going to lose over time. The particular basic concept behind a weight loss calculator is the calorie. In case you eat only a certain amount of calories per day in which case you can calculate approximately what amount weight you will eliminate or gain over a period of time. Requires roughly 3500 calories above as much calories that you burn to achieve a pound of excess fat. Lets say that a grownup will burn on average 2000 calories a single day. A person would need to eat at least 2000 calories from fat worth of food so that they can stay the same excess fat. In case this person instead ate 2500 calories each day it would take them about 7 days to gain an excess pound. When however they only ate 1500 calories they might lose a pound from a week.
You will need to keep in mind that everyone burns another type of amount of calories each day. A little child will burn an alternative amount of calories than the usual grown woman. Another factor in how many calories a person burns each day is how active they're just or how much that they exercise. Although you are going to burn calories just seated there staying alive because your body needs energy to do things such as pump the heart and create new cells as well as other functions. If you wish to lose weight it seriously isn't always the best idea to simply exercise to help death. The easier way will be to cut out foods from a diet, like that daily soda crop up or candy bar. This can go long towards helping you trim down your calorie intake and slim down.
The first thing that a weight loss calculator will assist you to with is showing how many calories you have got to remove from your diet determined by your weight loss aims. If you want to lose one pound 7 days, that is certainly a terrific goal for anyone trying to lose excess weight, then you have available a weight loss calculator to determine how many calories it is advisable to have a deficit in on a daily basis over the span on the week. This could be 500 calories or 1000 calories in the current diet so you are going to use a weight deprivation calculator to see you'll want to cut out a fatty meal in daytime.

Check out the r/anarchism reading group.
Anarchism is a social movement that seeks liberation from oppressive systems of control including but not limited to the state, capitalism, racism, sexism, and religion. Anarchists advocate a self-managed, classless, stateless society without borders, bosses, or rulers where everyone takes collective responsibility for the health and prosperity of their community.
If you are not yet familiar with anarchism, check out /r/anarchy101.
/r/Anarchism is for discussing topics relevant to anarchism. The moderation structure and policies are not intended to be an example of an anarchist society, an internet forum is not a society. If you join the discussion here, we assume that you are an anarchist, an ally, or want to learn more about anarchism. Review the Anti-Oppression Policy to see how you can help make space for marginalized people.
Conversations about moderation, rules, bans, and other meta topics take place in /r/metanarchism.

I'm thinking about doing this at Best Buy. Put on my old shirt and khakis, and walk around interacting with customers. Provide them with information about working conditions or electronic waste issues. Tell them about planned obsolescence and the slave labor used to make that t.v. they're ogling. Sometimes just confuse and disorient. The least it could be is mildly amusing.

Better yet agitate and educate the workers in an attempt to get them to organize.
[–]informedvoice[S] 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
most are probably too busy today, also that's a faster way to get managerial attention.
you could confuse and disorient customers all day though and take a comfortable chunk out of their revenues.

What is the real goal, to hurt employers or help employees?
I'm down for both, but the best way to hurt employers is to help employees.

Agitate, educate, organize; inspire, illuminate, awaken.

It'd be simple at both Target and Wal-Mart, since they don't have certain shirts they have to wear. Red [or blue, for Wal-Mart.] polo and khaki pants.

I'm Steve Crain, as of fall, 2012, the Campus Pastor for McPherson College. I also teach in the Department of Philosophy and Religion.
By way of introduction, let me share a bit about myself.
I'm a fourth-generation native of California whose hometown is Pacific Grove, on the Monterey Peninsula. After spending half of my life in my home state, I moved to Indiana for graduate work and then settled there, for ten years in South Bend and then fifteen years in Ft. Wayne, before moving to Kansas this summer. I am married, with a teenage son at home and two adult stepdaughters, one in Chicago, and one back in Indiana. I am enjoying my first year in Kansas!
I am ordained in the Church of the Brethren and have a broad background in both Evangelical and Catholic Christianity, with especially strong ties to the Episcopal Church. As for my education, I earned an undergraduate degree in physics from Stanford University, a master's in theology from Fuller Theological Seminary, and then finally a master's in the history and philosophy of science and a Ph.D. in theology from the University of Notre Dame.
I seek to be a pastor who is rooted in Christ and grounded in prayer and Scripture, and who is here for you, whatever your religious beliefs, experiences, or background. No matter how you identify yourself and your spiritual or religious path, I would like you to consider me a possible friend to whom you can turn for spiritual counsel and encouragement, for conversation and prayer, and just for an ear and an open heart. I will work closely with our campus counselor, Kelli Johnson, in helping to provide appropriate care for students in need.
I'm in the basement of the Student Union. My office hours are currently MWRF 10-11 and 1:30-3:30, although I am frequently in my office between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm, so you can often simply drop by. I am available by appointment. My office extension is 2508 (620-242-0508). You can most easily schedule a counseling appointment by using our Online Scheduler.
Steve Crain
Campus Pastor
For an appointment, please call or (better) send an email:

Home » Girls' Volleyball NewsNPHS names Whitaker new volleyball coachMay 9, 2013 New Palestine High SchoolNew NPHS volleyball coach Kelli Whitaker was a standout player at both New Palestine High School and Indiana State University. Photo courtesy of Indiana State University Athletics. New Palestine High School announces the hiring of Kelli Whitaker as its new varsity volleyball coach. The appointment is pending official approval at Monday's school board meeting. Whitaker, a 2006 NPHS graduate, will be making her varsity coaching debut. But she has been a key part of the Dragons' program as both a player and a coach during her career. "I am very excited about this opportunity to coach at New Palestine," Whitaker said. "We have such a great group of girls and I plan to build upon the solid foundation we already have. I am truly ecstatic to be able to lead the team in lessons on and off the court." She has been a junior varsity and freshman coach for two seasons with the Dragons since graduating from Indiana State University in 2010. Whitaker is also one of the top players in NPHS history, having been an all-county and all-conference performer in two sports at New Palestine before playing four years of volleyball at ISU. She was an All-State performer and an Indiana All-Star as a player in volleyball, and was the two-time Hancock County Player of the Year. As a player, in addition to her prowess on the volleyball court, Whitaker was a key part of the Dragons' 2004 state championship softball team and one of the leading hitters on the 2006 state finalist softball team. At ISU, she graduated with a 4.0 GPA with a degree in elementary education. She was a Presidential Scholar-Athlete, a Missouri Valley Conference Scholar-Athlete and was named to the conference's All-Academic Team three times. Whitaker is a kindergarten teacher at Brandywine Elementary School in the Southern Hancock school corporation. "We are excited to have Kelli as our coach," NPHS athletic director Allen Cooper said. "She will bring a committed, high character, first class approach to our volleyball program. Her energy and enthusiasm will lead our program in the right direction."
