This base class allows opaque objects to be wrapped by a real object that you can then take an address off. This is needed in order to wrap an opaque object in a RCP for example.
For example, MPI uses the opaque object idiom for handling things like MPI_Comm, and MPI_Op. Some implementations implement these opaque object handles and just integers. This causes many problems with used with the RCP (just try wrapping an MPI_Comm object directly in a RCP and see what happens yourself and see what happens).
For example, to wrap MPI_COMM_WORLD in a RCP, you would do opaqueWrapper(MPI_COMM_WORLD)
and that is it.
Consider what would happen if you tried to directly wrap the MPI_Comm MPI_COMM_WORLD in a RCP. On some implementations like MPICH, MPI_Comm is just a typedef to an integer and MPI_COMM_WORLD is just a define to a literal interger. In this case, the expression rcp(&MPI_COMM_WORLD)
would not even compile (try this on your version of MPICH). To make this compile, we might try something like:
Teuchos::RCP<MPI_Comm> getMpiCommPtr() { MPI_Comm comm = MPI_COMM_WORLD; return Teuchos::rcp(&comm,false); }
Of course the above code would result in a disaster when the stack variable comm
, which is just an integer in MPICH, was destroyed and reclaimed. The RCP
returned from getMpiCommPtr() would contain a raw pointer an int
object that was now being used for something else and would no longer have the integer value of a valid MPI_Comm object.
The following implementation would most likely work but is pretty ugly:
Teuchos::RCP<MPI_Comm> getMpiCommPtr() { MPI_Comm *comm = new MPI_Comm(MPI_COMM_WORLD); return Teuchos::rcp(&comm); }
The above implementation of getMPiCommPtr() would work with MPICH but it is unclear how this would work with other implementations of MPI (but it should work for these also). However, this is pretty ugly to do.
There are other issues that crop up also when you play these types of games.
Therefore, just use opaqueWrapper()
create wrap opaque objects in RCP objects and be sure that this will go smoothly.

Well, the election is over-what´s the point? We are headed towards full-throttle Obama - going to admit he´s a Muslim this term or just segway into it and show up at some mosque some day. Sharia is just around the corner. Who´s going to stop him - Boenher?
Did he visit a Marine base? I saw video of him walking into a room of alleged marines and no one stood up. They kept their seats and he walked up to a number of them and shook their hand WHILE they remained seated. I´ve never seen that happen.
He looked in the mirror a few times yesterday, isn´t that enough?
#2, do you know of a link to that video. I´d LOVE to see it.As for them skipping church, I´m sure they did. They´re not Christians and Obama slipped and said "..my Muslim faith" on a TV interview with Stephanopoulus, didn´t he?So let´s all just assume that religions are his convenience stations, just stepping stones to where he wants to be in life -- dictator.
You cretins, doncha know dat duh church COMES to mohammed, er barack, er ugh I mean oh heck...hahaha he doan need no steenking church what wid rules and restrictions on his actibities!
He´s not going to step into a church while there is thunderstorm and tornado activity. He might be struck down by lightening (fire from heaven).
The adulterer, Billy Jeff, always pictured with Bible in hand leaving church on Sundays, seems almost pious compared to this self-idolizer.
Regarding post #2:Marines only respect those who have earned their respect.Semper Fi.
why would he go to church...why would they bother.................as someone said...the election is over...he is free to COME OUT from behind the charade....
I thought they didn´t ´´do´´ gifts...
Just saw a part of the clip of the President talking with the Marines. I wonder if they remained seated because of injuries. Can´t believe Marines wouldn´t respect the office. Michelle kept her eyes on Obama and clearly appeared to be pained to have to be there.
Did Obama skip church on Christmas?Is the Pope Catholic?Does a bear do its business in the woods?Does the sun rise in the east and set in the west?All these questions have the same answer.
Yes, but he dropped to his knees on his prayer rug 5 times yesterday.
Oh great, if he did, now they have to reconsecrate the church.
Barack Obama is not a Moslem! He is either agnostic or atheist.

About IDOT in Motion
SPRINGFIELD, IL -- The Illinois Department of Transportation is advising motorists that flooding continues to force the closing of some roadways in northwest Illinois. Motorists are advised to use caution and not attempt to drive through water-covered roadways unless emergency road crews are present to help you get through.
In Carroll County, about two miles west of Thomson, major damage has occurred on Argo-Fay Road as a result of our recent rains and flood conditions. About 300 to 400 feet of road have been washed out as a result of the Johnson Creek levy failure. Argo-Fay Road is closed and will remain closed until the damage can be repaired.
Illinois 84 at the Carroll/Whiteside County line is also covered with up to 5-inches of water as a result of the levy break. Illinois 84 is open to traffic but IDOT flagmen are stationed at both ends of the flooded area stopping traffic and directing one-way traffic through the flooded area. Please use extreme caution in this area and follow the direction of the flagmen. If there is any increase in water level the Department will be forced to close this section of road as well.
You can avoid these areas all together by taking a detour on Illinois 78 in Illinois or US 67 in Iowa.
Media outlets wanting to use photographs of the damaged area of Argo-Fay Road can find photos below. Also updated road closure information can also be found on the IDOT web site under "Road closures."

SaltWorks Joins National Debate on Sodium Intake, Warning That Deprivation of This Vital Mineral May Carry Risks
WOODINVILLE, Wash. , July 17, 2012 -- You've heard of the war on drugs. But did you know there's a war on salt? While some of the country's leading politicians, government agencies and medical organizations deem salt the "number-one enemy" to health and want to ban it from dishes and diets everywhere, dissenting voices are cropping up in major news outlets like The New York Times and CNN. Mark Zoske, CEO of SaltWorks®, Inc., agrees that now is the time to speak out.

'Crisp bread' requires robots' delicate touch
At Wasabröd's factory in the small hamlet of Filipstad, Sweden, handling fragile crisp bread is no easy task for a company that works hard to retain its dominant position in the industry.
Swedish crisp bread, hard bread, or simply cracker, has become a delicacy. Because it is made from whole grain, rye, water, yeast, and salt, with no extra additives, crisp bread has become a favorite for people interested in healthy eating and/or convenience foods.Wasabröd's plant is the biggest crisp bread factory in the world, with a yearly production of more than 37,000 tons. Considering that crisp bread is very light, that corresponds to about 6,000 trailers leaving Wasabröd's factories every year for world markets, or about 24 per day.But Wasabröd's fortunes have not always been so bright: In the late '80s and early '90s, it saw its sales plummet by several percentage points per year. Key to the company's turnaround was finding efficiencies in production and developing new, higher-value products. Today, crisp bread is produced 24/7.One new product, Solruta Quinoa crisp bread, is stacked and packed 10X10 by a bank of seven ABB IRB 340 FlexPicker™ robots. The solution for the new crisp bread was developed for the Barilla Group in Italy and delivered by the Italian integrator Technopack. The robotic arms' vacuum pads guarantee less waste when stacking compared to other methods.Wasabröd also uses one IRB 340 FlexPicker robot on the packaging side of its existing crisp bread and cream cheese-sandwich line, delivered by integrator FlexPack Robotics
. While this product has been around since 1965, it was recently redesigned with new packaging and a new filling.Before being packaged, the bank bill-sized sandwich gets cut lengthwise to make it easier and less messy to eat. On the conveyor system, the FlexPicker robot stacks 90 crackers/min into three-pack stacks.Says Wasabröd head of production Per-Inge Eriksson, "With the FlexPicker robot, which has an availability of 99.5 percent, we've reduced waste by 50 percent, from 30 sandwiches per minute to 15, and at the same time, we have increased productivity by 10 percent in our existing sandwich line. This is important, considering that with only 5 percent to 8 percent water content, crisp bread is a very brittle and fragile product." According to Eriksson, production of sandwiches was 7.7 tons per week two years ago. Today, with the improvements in the product and the trend of convenience food, close to 38.5 tons are produced per week.Comments(0)

Hi all,
To be honest I'm quite sure how this is meant to work but I'm new to the ipad world and im looking to get some advise around how best to use it.
My biggest issue is iPad security!!!! I live with my friends and I'm more than happy to let them use my iPad but Im worried about the fact that they have open access to all my txt msgs, emails and contacts info. I'm aware of the passcode function which ensures they cant access my iPad without my permission. However, once unlocked is there anyway to apply a further passcode requirement for opening the applications mentioned above? As it stands my only sense of security around this issue is to effectively monitor their usage by looking over their shoulder.
Anyones assistance or thoughts on this issue would be greatly appreciated

The first five months of 2008 all experienced declines in VMT compared with those same months in 2007. According to Federal Highway Administration data, Americans drove 9.6 billion fewer vehicle miles in May 2008 than in May 2007. This is the single largest drop in VMT for any May, which typically reflects increased travel due to Memorial Day vacations and the beginning of summer. It is the third largest drop in the 66 years that this data has been recorded.

TARDIS Cat House: I Wanna Play In That!
I actually used to have a cat that was retardis -- miss you Little Man.
This is a half-scale Dr. Who TARDIS cat house lovingly built by woodworking-wonder Astromark for his kitty Kaylee because, I dunno, I guess cats are really spoiled these days. I remember a time just a couple years ago when you could give a cat an empty soda box and they felt like they'd lost all nine lives and gone to heaven. Now you ding a crystal glass with a dessert fork and they come running at their leisure and are all, "Fancy Feast, seriously? I'm shitting in your shoes tonight, @$$hole."
Hit the jump for a bunch more of the finished product, including an interior shot that admittedly does look a lot bigger than the outside would lead you to believe.

Posted by Peter Graziani on Tuesday, July 05, 2011
I just completed MGMT 575, Leading with Emotional Intelligence (EQ). This class is unique to Seattle University, and often attracts UW students or graduates students from other schools at SU. EQ teaches students to use self awareness as a basis for self management and social awareness to reach the ultimate goal of relationship management. This is accomplished by placing students in situations where they must evaluate their 'here and now' feelings and utilize intense empathic listening skills. Many of the exercises for EQ are extremely powerful, emotional, exhausting, yet very rewarding. I made strong connections with my coaching triad, and my 6-person training group as well as the remainder of the class. EQ is the one of the classes in the SU MBA program that creates strong, intense bonds within the students. MBA 510 is the other.
One of the more powerful exercises for me was the reading of our autobiographies during the first day of the 3 day retreat at Snoqualmie Pass. We read our 4-page autobiographies to our t-group members. I was more moved by the stories of the others in my group, and how emotional they were while reading about the events and people that had an impact on their lives. All of us showed vulnerability and trust while we read our life stories and that created a strong bond between us.
The main feature of the class is the t-group exercises. I was placed in a circle with 5 other classmates to discuss our feelings and wants with each other. The facilitators prevented the conversation from leaving the 'here and now'. That means that all of the feelings must be current and the conversation must be internal to the group and not include anything outside of the circle. I realize this is very difficult to understand from a short blog entry, but take it from me; this exercise was difficult, but powerful. It made me stop to think about my true feelings and how I react to the feelings and thoughts of those who I interact with.
We had the opportunity to practice coaching with our coaching triad. We were instructed to listen to a life or career oriented problem that a member of our triad is currently involved in. We practiced intense listening skills and how to ask questions that dug deeper into the issue and how the person truly felt. I learned that a coach needs to refrain from providing suggestions too early in the investigation process. A good coach keeps asking questions that allow the client to come close to the solution on their own.
EQ is one of the most rewarding and challenging classes that I have taken so far at SU. I highly recommend it to anyone considering a leadership or people management role. We are lucky at SU to have the opportunity to take a class such as this one so consider taking advantage of it!
Happiness is an integral part of emotional intelligence. As long as you are happy you have a better mindset of your personal goals in life.

SPRINGFIELD — State lawmakers inched along Thursday with ideas aimed at solving Illinois' nearly $100 billion pension crisis as three different proposals -- including a bipartisan plan -- saw movement.
The bipartisan plan is sponsored by House Republican Leader Tom Cross and Democratic state Rep. Elaine Nekritz and requires higher employee contributions and generally delays cost-of-living increases until age 67, among other things. It also tests out making universities and some school districts pick up their own pension costs for new employees.
The House Personnel and Pensions Committee approved it 9 -1, sending it to the full House.
Nekritz and Cross have said their plan would cut the state retirement systems' debt by roughly 30 percent.
The committee vote came shortly after House members approved two smaller pieces of reform in a laborious process aimed at trying to find consensus on how to solve Illinois' worst-in-the-nation pension problem.
One of the bills, House Bill 1154, caps the salary that pension benefits are based on at the limit set for Social Security, currently $113,000 a year.
The other bill, House Bill 1166, pushes back the retirement age by different increments based on age group. For example, younger employees will see a later retirement age.
Rep. Jay Hoffman, D-Belleville, spoke against the change in retirement age, saying it's likely to be found unconstitutional. The state constitution prohibits existing pension benefits from being "diminished or impaired."
"If we're going to fix the pension system, if we're really going to provide a solution, we ought to abide by the constitutional mandates and the constitution of the state of Illinois," Hoffman said.
Hoffman also spoke against Amendment 7 of House Bill 1166, which failed but would have increased pension contributions by 3 percent of salary. Hoffman said labor unions, in negotiations, had agreed to a 2 percent, phased-in increase.
Lawmakers have been zeroing in on the problem in smaller doses after more typical legislative routes have failed. However, some Republicans have criticized the process as directionless, and the process also means duplication of the same ideas in several pending bills.
Nekritz, who's been at the heart of pension talks, defended the tactic. Lawmakers have been unable to agree on a plan for more than a year, even with intense urging from Gov. Pat Quinn, who's made it his top priority.
"Working this bill in a traditional way, we really have not been able to come up with a solution," Nekritz told lawmakers.
How metro-east representatives voted:
Rep. Dan Beiser, D-Alton: Yes
Rep. Jerry Costello II, D-Smithton: No
Rep. Jay Hoffman, D-Belleville: Yes
Rep. Eddie Lee Jackson, D-East St. Louis: Yes
Rep. Dwight Kay, R-Glen Carbon: Yes

BREAKING: Ohio Residents Shut Down Fracking Waste Storage Facility
Cleveland 4 Trial Summary from Redbird Prison Abolition
By Anonymous Indymedia User on 13 Dec 2012Root Cause of Fracking: Capitalism
By Jason on 26 Aug 2012Bill Baker of Frack Free Ohio states:
"[The issue on the local ballot is] an attempt to take back local control and return local decision-making to our city council and the residents as to whether we want to permit injection wells or not. A core component of this is that it criminalizes fracking fluid without legislative approval, and legislative approval in our city limits would require disclosure of the chemicals. We're back to that same issue of wanting to know what the heck is in this water. Is it just safe brine water as the industry tells us?" (1)

Review of the 2013 BMW Z4
Sleek styling, a high-class interior and plenty of performance combine to make the 2013 BMW Z4 a highly desirable roadster.
- Safety | Reliability
Powerful engines; fuel-efficient base model; quick-folding hardtop; comfortable ride; big trunk (with the top raised); strong brakes; excellent visibility for a roadster.
Very pricey; four-cylinder is clattery at idle; not as invigorating and involving as its Porsche rival.
What's New for 2013
Other than minor changes to standard equipment, the 2013 BMW Z4 is unchanged.

Full 2013 BMW Z4 Review
What's New for 2013
Other than minor changes to standard equipment, the 2013 BMW Z4 is unchanged.
Roadsters used to be simple, impossibly tiny convertibles low in power but high in agility. Frills were few, but fun was abundant. They were also reasonably priced. With a lone exception, today's roadsters hardly fill this bill. The 2013 BMW Z4 and its two primary German competitors pack in the latest luxury features and power-retractable roofs. The Z4 has overwhelming power and isn't even that small. As for price? Well, we certainly wouldn't describe it as reasonable.
However, just because the Z4 represents a radical roadster shift doesn't mean that the fun has diminished. This BMW lives up to its brand's long-standing reputation for making supremely capable driving cars. The handling is excellent, the controls are engaging and each turbocharged engine -- either a relatively frugal four-cylinder or much stronger six-cylinder -- delivers strong performance.
Beyond its high-powered persona, the Z4's size and creature comforts provide something that those roadsters of yore definitely did not -- easy commuting and road trip livability. The Z4 has genuinely generous legroom, bettering not only its ancestors but its current competitors as well. Its features list is extensive -- slightly offsetting its eye-watering price -- while its power-retractable hardtop roof provides the cabin with an extra measure of serenity and security. Even the trunk is generously sized.
In total, the 2013 BMW Z4 is easy to love. While not possessing the perfectly balanced nature of the 2013 Porsche Boxster or the peerless refinement of the 2013 Mercedes-Benz SLK, the Z4 manages to strike a middle ground between the two. Yet we can't ignore the sky-high price tags attached to all three of these cars that frankly seem a little absurd. If you're looking for the modern embodiment of the classic roadster, the Mazda Miata is really your only bet.
Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options
The 2013 BMW Z4 is a two-seat convertible with a retractable hardtop roof. There are three models that correspond to engine size: sDrive28i, sDrive35i and sDrive35is.
The 28i comes standard with 17-inch wheels, automatic and adaptive bi-xenon headlights, automatic wipers, heated mirrors, keyless ignition/entry, cruise control, dual-zone automatic climate control, eight-way power seats with four-way lumbar adjustment, driver memory functions, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, leatherette premium vinyl upholstery, auto-dimming mirrors, Bluetooth phone connectivity and a sound system that includes a CD player, HD radio, an auxiliary audio jack and an iPod/USB audio interface.
Besides its bigger engine, the 35i gets 18-inch wheels, sport seats with adjustable bolsters and thigh support and sun-reflective leather upholstery. These items are optional on the 28i.
The 35is adds an even more powerful engine, unique styling cues, a lowered suspension with adaptive dampers and a sport steering wheel.
Each Z4 is eligible for the following optional packages. The Cold Weather package adds heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, extra storage items and retractable headlight washers. The M Sport package adds an adaptive M-tuned suspension, lightweight 18-inch wheels, an increased top speed limiter, an aerodynamic body kit, a thicker sport steering wheel and special interior trim.
Stand-alone options include different wheels, front and rear parking sensors, automatic high beams, steering wheel paddle shifters (automatic transmission only), heated seats, BMW Assist emergency communications, a six-CD changer, satellite radio, an upgraded sound system and the BMW Apps suite of smartphone-connected functions.
Powertrains and Performance
The 2013 BMW Z4 sDrive28i features a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that produces 240 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. Rear-wheel drive is standard and there is a no-cost transmission option of either a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic. Manual-equipped cars include an automatic stop-start function that turns off the engine when the car is stopped to improve efficiency. In Edmunds performance testing, a manual-equipped Z4 28i went from zero to 60 mph in 5.8 seconds, which is actually close to the V6-powered Mercedes SLK350. EPA-estimated fuel economy is 22 mpg city/34 mpg highway and 26 mpg combined with the manual, with the automatic losing only 1 mpg on the highway.
The Z4 sDrive35i gets a 3.0-liter turbocharged six-cylinder that produces 300 hp and 300 lb-ft of torque. It gets a standard six-speed manual (no auto stop-start), with a seven-speed automated manual transmission as a cost option (known as DCT). With the manual, the Z4 hit 60 mph in 5.2 seconds, which is quicker than the SLK and base Porsche Boxster. It ties the Boxster S. EPA mileage stands at 19/26/21 with the manual and 17/24/19 with DCT.
The Z4 sDrive35is gets a more powerful version of the 3.0-liter turbo-6 good for 335 hp and 332 lb-ft of torque. At full throttle, an overboost function increases torque to 369 lb-ft. The DCT is the only available transmission. In Edmunds testing, the 35is went from zero to 60 in 5 seconds flat. Its fuel economy is 17/24/19.
Every BMW Z4 comes standard with antilock brakes, stability and traction control and side airbags. The antilock brakes also integrate several features designed to improve braking performance, such as periodically wiping the brake rotors dry when the windshield wipers are in use and snugging the brake pads against the rotors if the driver abruptly lifts off the throttle. The optional BMW Assist emergency communications includes automatic crash notification, stolen vehicle recovery and on-demand roadside assistance.
In Edmunds brake testing, the 28i came to a stop from 60 mph in an outstanding 103 feet. The other two models were essentially identical.
Interior Design and Special Features
The 2013 BMW Z4's cabin is sleek and upscale. High-quality materials abound and combine with diverse shapes to create an undeniably premium environment. Several two-tone color choices add some further pizzazz, while additional standard features for 2013 are welcome given the Z4's elevated price. There are also a few thoughtful touches inside, including secondary knee-level air vents and a small cargo shelf behind the seats.
The Z4 is also arguably the most practical two-passenger sports car on the market. Legroom is plentiful, which is something you don't hear often about small convertibles. Visibility is also unmatched thanks to large rear quarter windows that eliminate the typical blind spots in most convertibles. With the hardtop roof raised, the trunk is quite large, measuring 8 cubic feet and capable of holding two sets of golf clubs and a carry-on suitcase. You'll have to ditch those clubs when you lower the two-piece hardtop, but the suitcase can remain, which is more than you can say for some other hardtop convertibles. There's also an available trunk pass-through that can accommodate longer items.
Driving Impressions
Some people might not like the idea of a sports car with a four-cylinder engine. Most won't like the sound of the 2013 BMW Z4 sDrive28i's four-cylinder at idle, as it produces an unbecoming rough clatter. But slot the manual transmission's slick shifter into 1st and lay into the throttle and we're pretty sure you won't have anything to complain about. This torque-rich engine pulls hard and has a sharp, warbling exhaust note reminiscent of BMW's past inline-6s. The 28i also handles a bit better than its six-cylinder siblings thanks to its lighter weight. The 35i and 35is are quicker, but truth be told, you'll be plenty happy with the 28i.
The Porsche Boxster remains the hands-down favorite when it comes to providing an engaging top-down driving experience. The Z4, especially with one of its sport packages, is certainly no slouch around corners, but its more comfortable ride, more spacious cabin and less communicative steering make it more of a grand touring car akin to the Mercedes-Benz SLK.

Team Member FAQs
Team Member FAQ
- When should I plan to arrive on-site?
- How do I make my travel arrangements?
- Who pays for our travel expenses (e.g., hotels, meals, transportation) while on-site?
- Should I claim per diem or submit meal receipts?
- What about rental cars?
- Can I get CEU credit for going on a visit?
When should I plan to arrive on-site?
Generally, team members should plan to arrive at their destination by mid to late afternoon on the Sunday before the visit starts. This allows for the team chair and team members to arrange for a meeting and dinner together before the visit starts the following day. Please be sure to check with the team chair before making your travel arrangements to insure that you know approximately when the chair would like to hold the pre-visit meeting.
How do I make my travel arrangements?
CACREP uses Liberty Travel for its air travel arrangements. When team members use Liberty Travel for an air ticket associated with an on-site team visit, Liberty charges the ticket directly to CACREP and the team member has no out of pocket expenses.
Who pays for our travel expenses (e.g., hotels, meals, transportation) while on-site?
Team members usually pay for their hotel and meals while on site and then are reimbursed by CACREP at the completion of the visit and submission of an expense report form. Receipts are required for the hotel, but not for meals if per diem is claimed.
With regard to transportation, CACREP will reimburse for travel expenses to and from the site. This includes taxis to the airport, luggage fees, airport parking fees, and airfare when our travel agent is not used. Team members who drive their personal vehicles to the location of the on-site visit may put in for mileage at the rate set by the federal government. If, however, the distance is such that it is cheaper to fly than drive, CACREP will only reimburse up to the cost of an advance air fare ticket. In all cases, a Mapquest or other route should be submitted to document the mileage being claimed.
Since transportation to and from the airport, hotel and clinical sites is usually arranged by the program faculty, there is often no cost associated with this . When developing the agenda, the team chair should request that the program provide this transportation whenever possible.
Of course, there are always exceptions. For example, occasionally a team member's hotel bill will be paid by the university or college. When this occurs, CACREP reimburses the institution for the cost of the lodging. There are also times when the closest airport is two or more hours from the university. In these cases, the team members may need to coordinate their arrival and departure times for ease of transportation.
Should I claim per diem or submit meal receipts?
Per diem is the easiest way to get reimbursed and no receipts are required. CACREP requests, however, that you claim meal per diem costs only for those meals that you eat at your expense. There are times when an institution hosts a lunch for the team to meet with faculty or students. When this is the case and the university has paid, you should not submit a per diem request for that meal.
If you decide to use receipts, your costs per meal should be within the per diem rates quoted on the web site.
What about rental cars?
Team members may not rent cars at CACREP's expense without prior approval from the CACREP Staff. Since institutions usually provide transportation to and from the airport, hotel, and clinical sites, the only time a rental car may be necessary is when the airport is so far away from the institution that it would be a hardship on faculty. If this is the case, the team should try to coordinate their arrival and departure times so that they can travel together.
Can I get CEU credit for going on a visit?
CEU credit is available through CACREP for the didactic portion of your training (the session you attended at a conference), but CACREP cannot you CEU credit for the actual visit. The National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC)gives credit for leadership positions held, and it is possible they would give team visitors up to 20 hours in a five-year period under this category. If you are interested, you should contact NBCC for more information on how to obtain these CEUs.

Processor aside, it's greatPros: I like the size and the noise is pretty much non existent. Cons: Processor is poor Other Thoughts: this PC is not gaming which is what I'm into. The processor is pretty much the only thing stopping me from playing most games even on minimal settings. I'd like to upgrade the CPU and power supply but I'm afraid it wouldn't fit in such a small case. 0 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

Rated 5 out of 5 by MarcV Quality Buy
Bought these for my wedding December 2010. I always wanted a pair, but was leery of the slightly high price. I pulled the trigger and i have never been happier with my socks!
These have lasted very well, i wear them 6-7 days a week with all kinds of socks. In fact, when i don't wear them, i almost feel naked. I ever wear them with white socks.
the one POTENTIAL downside i can see, is that the rubber and fabric tounge cannot be replaced. So if one breaks, you have to buy a whole new set. BUT in 15 months, this has not happened.
Couldn't ask for anything more!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Rakrak Sock Garters? Surprisingly Nice
Bought these on a lark, having never had any. They have turned out to be surprisingly comfortable and useful for the "high rent" socks that have a habit of slipping down. Not having to adjust socks for the entire day/evening is a pleasure. Clearly only for special use, but more useful than expected for those times.

Rated 5 out of 5 by TK15 Garters
I love the garters I purchased from Brooks Brothers. The quality, look, and comfort are great. I had purchased a pair from another store that I was not happy with. When I saw Brooks Brothers carried garters I decided to purchase a pair since everything else I have purchased from Brooks Brothers has been high quality and comfortable. After wearing them the first day I almost forgot I had them on.

Rated 4 out of 5 by ManInTheBluePinstripe Garters are Great! There is nothing worse than slouching socks! I love the fit and performance of these garters. I only wish that replacement tabs were sold. If the rubber tab comes off (as one of mine once did), you have to buy a whole new set.
All in all, I recommend them!

As a teenager in the 60's we wore these with our Brooks Brothers shirts, Corbin pants and Gold Cup socks. As that fad faded, we quit wearing them. When I saw a pair at the store in Charleston, S.C. I was reminded of how well they worked with thin dress socks. Had a chance to wear them with thin dress socks recently and the were perfect.

These garters are of excellent quality. They are well made and do exactly what they should without overstretching or causing discomfort. A highly recommended wardrobe essential.

Rated 5 out of 5 by mogultv A masculine necessity
I would not think of leaving the house without wearing a pair of garters to hold my socks firmly in place all day. It's comforting to know that even in the 21st Century, a gentleman can still get quality garters at Brooks Brothers.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Keithoflondon No man should be without these.....
I too never leave the house without sock garters. There is nothing worse than seeing a man in a suit with socks wrinkled around the ankles of his shoes.

It's so sad in a town that gave the Lakers Showtime in exchange for talent not only on the court but coaching with Riley then finds a Diamond in Jackson who delivers multiple Championships with even the dysfunctional team play or Shaq and Kobe, to have nepotism trump and destroy the goal of winning. It's also too bad that 'Magic' can't be part of both the Dodger and Laker organizations in management because of his tradition of excellence, the City of Los Angeles is most grateful for his contributions!!!.....the next time, which should be soon, when Laker's management calls Phil Jackson in the middle of the night, please Phil, don't take out Jim Buss's incompetence on us Laker fans and pick up the phone and just say the word 'yes'...your focus and drive is what we miss the most. Thank you for the years you gave us in LA You are World Class all the way!
Magic Johnson says Jim Buss guilty of 'critical mistakes' with coaching hires
By Ben Golliver
Magic Johnson continued his criticism of the Lakers for hiring Mike D'Antoni instead of Phil Jackson on national television Wednesday night, hours after tweeting that he had been "mourning" for two days because of the decision.
Providing commentary on "NBA Countdown," ESPN's pre-game show, Johnson lashed out at Lakers vice president Jim Buss, son of owner Jerry Buss, for what he believes is Buss' second consecutive mistake when it comes to selecting a head coach.
ESPNLA.com has Johnson's statement.
"I love Dr. (Jerry) Buss. I don't believe in Jim Buss," Johnson said on ESPN's "NBA Countdown" on Wednesday night. "He's made two critical mistakes already. To me, they made two critical mistakes.
"First, hiring Mike Brown — he wasn't the right coach. He's a great coach but not the right coach for the Lakers. And I don't feel Mike D'Antoni is the right coach for the Lakers. Especially when you have Phil Jackson sitting out there, who wanted to be the Laker coach. Jim Buss decided he didn't want Phil Jackson, he wanted Mike D'Antoni. And that's OK, but why didn't you just say that? But the fans were cheering for Phil Jackson two nights in a row."
Asked by ESPNLosAngeles.com if he'd heard about Johnson's on-air comments, Jim Buss said, "But I believe in Magic as I always have."
Earlier Wednesday, Johnson expressed his dissatisfaction and disappointment with the D'Antoni hire on Twitter.
"The reason I haven't tweeted in 2 days is because I've been mourning Phil Jackson not being hired as the Lakers head coach," Johnson wrote. "My mother always taught me that if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all."
Johnson's latest comments add to a busy few days of post-hire criticism.
NBATV's Chris Webber ripped D'Antoni for "quitting" on the Knicks when he abruptly resigned last March.
"We get on players for getting tickets and driving too fast. He quit in the middle of a year. You go in the locker room and sell winning and sell family … Guys got to trust you in the locker room. It has to be more than Kobe [Bryant]. It has to be.
"You don't want your coach writing a book about you, you don't want your coach talking about you and you don't want your coach quitting on you and it being your fault. Ask the guys in New York, and they played better when he left. I don't think this is about Phil Jackson, I think this is like, 'How the heck did he [D'Antoni] get this job? You all want to be that different from Phil Jackson?' That's my honest opinion. How the heck did he get that job?
Todd Musberger, Jackson's agent, criticized the Lakers for their treatment of Jackson.
"He's a good faith person and he was dealt with poorly. It is indicative of the shabby way that organization is being run… Phil brought nothing but trophies to their bookcase and value to the franchise. He deserved to be dealt with honestly."
Former Lakers assistant coach Kurt Rambis did too, singling out Jim Buss just as Johnson did.
"If you're talking about having success and having this team and someone who knows how to guide a team to an NBA title, Phil is that guy," he said. "There's no second, third, fourth or fifth choice at this point in time. He's that guy. I don't know if Jim Buss knows one system from another in terms of how it fits with players, or what works best for players, or what's the difference between them. I don't know if he really understands that, so a lot of times decisions are made on gut feelings and with outside sources that have an influence on it."
Lakers GM Mitch Kupchak said earlier this week that the decision to hire D'Antoni was made by Jerry Buss, Jim Buss and himself. He also said that it wasn't his intention to mislead Jackson or wake him up in the middle of the night with news that D'Antoni was being hired instead.
Jackson was reportedly "stunned" by the Lakers' quick hire of D'Antoni.
The Point Forward discussed the Lakers' treatment of Jackson during the coaching process on Wednesday. Here's a round-up of Twitter reaction to the D'Antoni hire.

I always wanted to have a Mr. Gracey painting in my house. So I sketched one. So I decided to take a photo of him. Master the sketch in photoshop and provide it to the world.
A tombstone in the family plot outside of the Walt Disney World Mansion reads "Master Gracey laid to rest. No mourning please, at his request." A tribute to Disney Imagineer Yale Gracey. His tombstone was also one of the original eight in the family plot outside of Disneyland's Mansion, but it was removed sometime in the 1970s. According to X. Atencio (who penned the epitaph), the title of "master" on the tombstone was meant to imply a male too young to be called "mister," and not the master of the house. Despite this, a common assumption by fans is that Gracey is the master of the house depicted in the foyer portrait, a handsome young man who ages and decays a la Dorian Gray. Merchandising has since adopted this popular notion, labeling the Aging Man as Master Gracey on various items. Master Gracey has also often been misidentified by fans as the Ghost Host. Before the addition of the interactive queue to Walt Disney World's Mansion in March 2011, a Cast Member would pick a fresh rose every morning and place it on Gracey's grave. In the Servants Quarters, there is a bell for Master Gracey's Bedchamber.
A Master Gracey tombstone is nowhere to be found at Tokyo Disneyland's Mansion. Instead, there is a tombstone for Mister West, which has the same epitaph and design as the Gracey tombstone. West's tombstone was also once located at the Disneyland Mansion, after the Gracey tombstone was removed.
Media adaptations have often followed the fan-based theory of Master Gracey being the master of the house. In the 2003 film, Master Edward Gracey was played by Nathaniel Parker, as a heartbroken man who hanged himself after his lover Elizabeth apparently killed herself.
In the comics, Master William Gracey was a vicious pirate known as Captain Blood, who eventually hanged himself in the cupola of his haunted mansion and became the Ghost Host. This was inspired by Ken Anderson's early concepts for the Disneyland attraction involving a pirate character named Captain Gore.
In the 2003 film's backstory 3, the house was called Gracey Manor, built by a sea captain named Ambrose Gracey. The name Gracey Manor (or Gracey Mansion) was used in the comics as well, but it is not the canonical name of any of the Disney Park Mansions. In Frontierland at Walt Disney World, for several years there was actually a sign pointing toward the attraction with the name Gastley Mansion (the word "Gastley" was crossed out and replaced with "Haunted").

About Wedgwood Wedgwood was founded by Josiah Wedgwood, the 'Father of English Potters', in 1759. His first big success - and perhaps the greatest contribution to the British pottery industry - was the production of the first cream-colored earthenware. Later called Queen's Ware by the Royal assent of Queen Charlotte in 1765, this inexpensive earthenware put fine, beautiful tableware within reach of a much wider range of consumers. Wedgwood's most famous commission in Queen's Ware was a 952 piece dinner and dessert service for Empress Catherine II of Russia in 1773/74, which featured free-hand paintings of 1,244 different English Scenes. Quintessentially English Wedgwood is quintessentially English. It has a tradition of innovation, quality and craftsmanship and its designs are widely acknowledged as timeless, elegant, classic and understated. The design teams also work with external product designs for cross-pollination of ideas, experience and work methods. The Company philosophy is that its products are not only a pleasure to be enjoyed today, but are also a treasure for the future - many consumers buy only Wedgwood to be handed down as a family heirloom. Wedgwood also produced a wide variety of ornamental ware and in 1768 developed Black Basalt, a fine black stoneware that has remained popular through three centuries and is used on vases, busts, cameos and teaware. Wedgwood Jasperware After years of searching for the right ingredients and thousands of experiments, Wedgwood perfected Jasperware - a very fine-grained stoneware, colored throughout the body. Jasper was prized by Wedgwood above all his creations and, until his death in 1795, he devoted much of his energy to producing a wide range of pieces from cameos to portrait medallions to chessmen and candlesticks in many different colors. Jasperware is synonymous with the Wedgwood name and has been produced continually for more than 200 years. Although today it is produced using more streamlined production techniques, in essence the methods used are the same as those used by Josiah Wedgwood in the 18th century, with every bas-relief decoration applied by hand. Wedgwood Designers The company has established exciting design partnerships with fashion designers, Jasper Conran, Vera Wang and artist Robert Dawson to develop contemporary and stylish ranges that appeal to the younger consumer. Today, Wedgwood is known throughout the world for the quality of its products and its rich heritage. "We are proud of the world-wide celebrations of Wedgwood's 250th anniversary. We need to reflect on our remarkable heritage, as well as the extraordinary legacy of our founder, Josiah Wedgwood. It is a time to focus on a new and exciting future with the many supporters of our great brand." -Lord Piers Wedgwood, Brand Ambassador | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I went back to my hobby of matching music to art. For a Mondrian (3 horizontal and 2 vertical black lines forming a grid, one rectangle blue, and the others white) I used one of Webern's Six Pieces for Orchestra. Neither one moves much. Thus the matching.
In spite of Stravinsky's admiration for Webern ("You have to mine for his diamonds.") I find nothing listenable in his music. I'd like to read other people's opinions of Anton Webern's music. In particular I'm looking forward to the comments of the 3 Bs of the BBB, Barfle, Bones, and Bignaf. Other comments equally welcome.
Shos, never to be confused with Web

Our Rating: :: PUZZLE TETHERBALL :: Read Our Full Review >>Centripetal is a difficult, but very addicting maze game with a tetherball twist.
App Description
Centripetal is a puzzle game where you try to get the ball to the exit. But unlike most such games, you aren't tilting, tapping or swiping to control the ball directly. Instead, you tap to tether the ball, letting it swing around to get it to go where you want it to go? Sound simple? Let's throw in blockers, movers, deflectors, and teleporters to make things more challenging? Still not enough? How about 80 levels relying on reflexes and wit to beat them?Centripetal... not your ordinary maze/puzzle/physics game.
