Born on July 13, 1940, in Yorkshire, England, Patrick Stewart acted with the Royal Shakespeare Company extensively, turning to film and television work as well. He won acclaim and a huge fan base starring as Captain Jean-Luc Picard in the Star Trek: The Next Generation series and films, and later played Professor X in X-Men. He has returned to theater with roles in The Tempest, Hamlet and Macbeth.
Early Life
Actor, writer, director and producer Patrick Hewes Stewart was born on July 13, 1940, in Mirfield, England. Widely known for his work on the popular science fiction television series Star Trek: The Next Generation, Patrick Stewart is a versatile performer, equally at home playing comic book characters and legendary Shakespearean parts. He comes from a modest beginning. "I grew up...in a house that had one room downstairs and one room upstairs. My brother and I shared a double bed in my parents' bedroom," he explained to Entertainment Weekly.
Stewart developed a love of theater during his school years. Stewart's first career, however, was in journalism. Leaving school at 15, he went to work for a newspaper. He left after two years to become an actor.
On Stage
While studying at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School, Stewart landed his significant stage role in Treasure Island in 1959. He worked on productions for several English repertory theater companies during the early 1960s, including the Manchester Library Theatre and Old Vic Theatre Company. With the Old Vic Company, Stewart had a chance to travel extensively, performing in different cities in Australia, New Zealand, and South America.
In 1966, Stewart joined the prestigious Royal Shakespearean Company (RSC). Other members of the company included Ben Kingsley and Helen Mirren. He toured the United States with the company several times over the next few years, performing such plays as As You Like It, Much Ado About Nothing, and King Lear. Back in England, Stewart played the title role in King John in 1970. He made his Broadway debut the following year in A Midsummer's Night Dream.
Film and Television
Stewart began his film career in 1975 with small roles in the drama Hedda starring Glenda Jackson and the thriller Hennessy with Rod Steiger and Lee Remick. Stewart also achieved some critical acclaim on the 1976 British miniseries I, Claudius, which featured Derek Jacobi as the flawed emperor of ancient Rome.
In 1979, Stewart won the Laurence Olivier Award for Actor of the Year in a Supporting Role for RSC's production of Antony and Cleopatra. He was also nominated in the best actor category for his work as Shylock in the RSC's production of The Merchant of Venice. That same year, Stewart appeared in the spy thriller miniseries Tinker, Tailor, Solider, Spy starring Alec Guinness. He also appeared in the 1982 sequel Smiley's People.
Stewart continued to juggle his stage, film and television career throughout the early and mid-1980s.

Nick Frost's Danger! 50,000 Volts! (2003)
British comedian Nick Frost (best known to American audiences for his role as Ed in the international hit Shaun of the Dead) mixes high-powered laughter with hair-raising stunts in this collection of material from his U.K. television series. Danger! 50,000 Volts! features Frost and his crew imagining a variety of potentially dangerous situations -- anything from being attacked by a bear to nuclear combat -- and then demonstrating what to do should they happen to you. However, Frost often reveals himself as not the world's greatest survival guide, and his attempts to work his way out of perilous circumstances are both exciting and hilarious. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi Hide synopsis

Ray is a 2004 biographical film focusing on 30 years[2] of the life of rhythm and blues musician Ray Charles. The independently produced film was directed by Taylor Hackford and starred Jamie Foxx in the title role; Foxx received an Academy Award for Best Actor for his performance.
Charles was set to attend an opening of the completed film, but he died of liver disease in June, several months before its premiere.[3]
Raised on a sharecropping plantation in Northern Florida, Ray Charles Robinson went blind at the age of seven, shortly after witnessing his younger brother drown. Inspired by a fiercely independent mother who insisted he make his own way in the world, Charles found his calling and his gift behind a piano keyboard. Touring across the chitlin circuit, the soulful singer gained a reputation and then exploded with worldwide fame when he pioneered incorporating gospel, country, jazz, and orchestral influences into his inimitable style.

The film's production was entirely financed by Philip Anschutz, through his Bristol Bay Productions company. Taylor Hackford stated in a DVD bonus feature that it took 15 years to make the film. He later clarified in the liner notes of the soundtrack album that it took that time to secure financing.
Charles was given a Braille copy of the film's original script; he objected only to a scene showing him taking up piano grudgingly, and a scene implying that Charles had shown mistress and lead "Raelette" Margie Hendricks how to shoot heroin.[3]
Ray debuted at the 2004 Toronto International Film Festival.
The following songs were used in the film:
- "Every Day I Have the Blues"
- "Baby, Let Me Hold Your Hand"
- "Mess Around"
- "I Got a Woman"
- "Hallelujah, I Love Her So"
- "Drown in My Own Tears"

- "Unchain My Heart"
- "You Don't Know Me"
- "I Can't Stop Loving You"
- "Bye Bye Love"
- "Born to Lose"
- "Hard Times (No One Knows Better Than I)"
Box office[edit]
Ray was released in theaters on October 29, 2004 on a budget of $40 million. The film went on to become a box-office hit, earning $75 million in the U.S. with an additional $50 million internationally, bringing its world wide gross to $125 million.
Critical reaction[edit]
The film received mostly positive reviews. Most of the praise went to Jamie Foxx's performance for which he was awarded the Academy Award for Best Actor. The film however did receive some bad reviews, with critics complaining that the film suffered from a mediocre screenplay buoyed by powerful performances.[4] Currently Ray has a certified fresh rating of 81% based on 197 reviews at Rotten Tomatoes.[5]
Music critic Robert Christgau said that "Foxx does the impossible—radiates something approaching the charisma of the artist he's portraying ... that's the only time an actor has ever brought a pop icon fully to life on-screen."[6]
Differences from noted events[edit]
In the film's credits, it's stated that Ray is based on true events, but includes some characters, names, locations, and events which have been changed and others which have been "fictionalized for dramatization purposes." Examples of the fictionalized scenes include:
- In the film, when Ray's younger brother George drowns in their mother's wash tub, he stands there and does nothing as George drowns (because he thought George was joking). In his autobiography, Charles remembers trying to pull his brother out of the tub after realizing he was drowning but was unable to save him.
- In the studio scene where Charles is taught the "Mess Around," he is told it is in the "key of G." The "Mess Around" is actually in the key of E flat.
- In the film, after reaching Seattle, when he arrives at the club where he is going to audition, Ray meets a teenage Quincy Jones that very night. This event is just partly true, as Ray actually met Quincy a few days after arriving.

- ^ Director Hackford noted this focus on the years 1935-1965 in his DVD commentary for the film; the only exception to this focus is the film's final scene featuring Julian Bond and set in the Georgia State Capitol in 1979, a scene Hackford included at Charles' specific request.

Definition of hapten in English:
Line breaks: hap¦tenPronunciation: /ˈhaptən
Physiology- A small molecule which, when combined with a larger carrier such as a protein, can elicit the production of antibodies which bind specifically to it (in the free or combined state).More example sentences
- It is likely that low-molecular-weight agents act as haptens, combining with human proteins in the respiratory tract to become complete immunogens.
- Supporting this is the discovery by Vojdani et al., who reported that some individuals develop allergic antibodies to haptens formed in response to MTBE binding to albumin.
- The bound microparticle complexes are then incubated with antidetection hapten alkaline phosphatase conjugate, which binds to the detection haptens.
early 20th century: from Greek haptein 'fasten'.

Network Buffers and Memory Management
The semantics of allocating and queuing buffers for sockets also involve flow control rules and for sending a whole list of interactions with signals and optional settings such as non blocking. Two routines are designed to make this easy for most protocols.
The sock_queue_rcv_skb() function is used to handle incoming data flow control and is normally used in the form:
sk=my_find_socket(whatever); if(sock_queue_rcv_skb(sk,skb)==-1) { myproto_stats.dropped++; kfree_skb(skb,FREE_READ); return; }
This function uses the socket read queue counters to prevent vast amounts of data from being queued to a socket. After a limit is hit, data is discarded. It is up to the application to read fast enough, or as in TCP, for the protocol to do flow control over the network. TCP actually tells the sending machine to shut up when it can no longer queue data.
On the sending side, sock_alloc_send_skb() handles signal handling, the non-blocking flag and all the semantics of blocking until there is space in the send queue, so that you cannot tie up all of memory with data queued for a slow interface. Many protocol send routines have this function doing almost all the work:
skb=sock_alloc_send_skb(sk,....) if(skb==NULL) return -err; skb->sk=sk; skb_reserve(skb, headroom); skb_put(skb,len); memcpy(skb->data, data, len); protocol_do_something(skb);
Most of this we have met before. The very important line is skb->sk=sk. The sock_alloc_send_skb() has charged the memory for the buffer to the socket. By setting skb->sk, we tell the kernel that whoever does a kfree_skb() on the buffer should credit the memory for the buffer to the socket. Thus, when a device has sent a buffer and freed it, the user is able to send more.
All Linux network devices follow the same interface, but many functions available in that interface are not needed for all devices. An object-oriented mentality is used, and each device is an object with a series of methods that are filled into a structure. Each method is called with the device itself as the first argument, in order to get around the lack of the C++ concept of this within the C language.
The file drivers/net/skeleton.c contains the skeleton of a network device driver. View or print a copy from a recent kernel and follow along throughout the rest of the article.
Figure 7 Structure of a Linux Network Device
Each network device deals entirely in the transmission of network buffers from the protocols to the physical media, and in receiving and decoding the responses the hardware generates. Incoming frames are turned into network buffers, identified by protocol and delivered to netif_rx(). This function then passes the frames off to the protocol layer for further processing.
Each device provides a set of additional methods for the handling of stopping, starting, control and physical encapsulation of packets. All of the control information is collected together in the device structures that are used to manage each device.
All Linux network devices have a unique name that is not in any way related to the file system names devices may have. Indeed, network devices do not normally have a file system representation, although you can create a device which is tied to the device drivers. Traditionally the name indicates only the type of a device rather than its maker. Multiple devices of the same type are numbered upwards from 0; thus, Ethernet devices are known as "eth0", "eth1", "eth3" etc. The naming scheme is important as it allows users to write programs or system configuration in terms of "an Ethernet card" rather than worrying about the manufacturer of the board and forcing reconfiguration if a board is changed.
The following names are currently used for generic devices:
ethn Ethernet controllers, both 10 and 100Mbit/second
trn Token ring devices
sln SLIP devices and AX.25 KISS mode
pppn PPP devices both asynchronous and synchronous
plipn PLIP units; the number matches the printer port
tunln IPIP encapsulated tunnels
nrn NetROM virtual devices
isdnn ISDN interfaces handled by isdn4linux (*)
dummyn Null devices
lo The loopback device
(*) At least one ISDN interface is an Ethernet impersonator—the Sonix PC/Volante driver behaves in all aspects as if it was Ethernet rather than ISDN; therefore, it uses an "eth" device name. If possible, a new device should pick a name that reflects existing practice. When you are adding a whole new physical layer type, you should look for other people working on such a project and use a common naming scheme.
Certain physical layers present multiple logical interfaces over one media. Both ATM and Frame Relay have this property, as does multi-drop KISS in the amateur radio environment. Under such circumstances, a driver needs to exist for each active channel. The Linux networking code is structured in such a way as to make this manageable without excessive additional code. Also, the name registration scheme allows you to create and remove interfaces almost at will as channels come into and out of existence. The proposed convention for such names is still under some discussion, as the simple scheme of "sl0a", "sl0b", "sl0c" works for basic devices like multidrop KISS, but does not cope with multiple frame relay connections where a virtual channel can be moved across physical boards.
What about rmem_max / rmem_default ?
An admirable in-depth article. Just a stupid question (I'm so slow-witted) : I still don't catch the link between the rmem_default/rmem_max sysctl parameters (socket receive buffer default/max length) and the buffer allocated by dev_alloc_skb(). Socket receive buffer vs buffer of skb : are we talking about he same memory area, or are they different things (involving necessarily a copy from the one to the other, sooner or later) ?
Thanks for anyone who would make it clear to me,
Missing pictures
The links to figures do not work (File not found error). I guess time does matter (1996 article!). To anyone reading this article, please provide us some links for the pictures (or link to some other up to date articles).
Thank you,

thanx for the great article..
at each layer the data and tail pointers change right??
so if i need to acces the L7 data,consider UDP can i take the from pre routing hook can i take data+udphdr->length..??
Help Required....
Hi Alan Cox,
Thanx for the article.
Iam Ram.Iam new to device driver development.
some how i manged to write a network driver.
still i need some help.But I want to access the driver functions directly from user program written in c.
i.e. I want to access the open,close,hard_start_xmit(),ioctl functions directly without using the socket api(socket,bind,connect etc). I want my own function api.
is it possible to do it.
Thanx in adavance,
good article
thanks for this article. It explains most of the things. But still I feel that some more thing related to Bottom Half/Top half processing should be added. and also things are not clear about the logic of freeing/owning skbuffers.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Today Stanley Kubrick's Shining come on TV and definitely gonna watch that. It's two years since I saw it.
"Here's Johnny!!"
Today Stanley Kubrick's Shining come on TV and definitely gonna watch that. It's two years since I saw it.
"Here's Johnny!!"
Breaking Dawn. Watched it twice, actually. Yes, I still like the movie. The first part was really dragged out, but the second part of the movie was awesome, I was shocked by how great they did it, I was so deeply touched by the ending, I didn't expect it. So, I know that there are many people who hate the saga, but I guess it doesn't matter, I know all the flaws of it, but there is still something that makes me love it.
Quarantine. A very good horror movie, though the Spanish one (Rec) was probably even better, 'cause it is the original movie. But still not so bad.
Trust. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1529572/
A very uncomfortable movie to watch, due to it's sensitive subject matter...it just felt too damn realistic! Extremely well acted, though, and I'm glad I watched it.
Movies like this scare the crap out of me.
Watched Bull Durham on HDNET this afternoon. Still cracks me up after all these years.
We watched The Green Hornet the other night. It wasn't too bad for a popcorn flick. I loved the TV show and this was a good homage to it, though MY Britt Reid was a bit more taciturn. Kato, OTOH.... this guy was terrific! And I want my very own Black Beauty!
The treasure of a life is a measure of love and respect/The way you live, the gifts that you give/In the fullness of time/It's the only return that you expect
Just watched "Super 8". Still processing. I feel like J.J. Abrams took a look at his "Cloverfield", decided he didn't like it, so he shrank it, John Williams-ized it, M. Night Shamalyzed it, fed it through some magic 80's Spielbergian nostalgia machine and out popped "Super 8." The Breakfast Club meets Close Encounters of the Third Kind meets IT. Pretty much way up my alley, just a little overboard with the constant homage-paying.
The last Harry Potter film . . .
I just couldn't get into these movies as much as the books, or I should say, no where near as much as the books.
Oof, I watched a lot of movies.
The new Muppets Film - I liked it, but didn't love it. I didn't really watch the muppets as a kid so it lacked the nostalgia factor for me.
Hall Pass - okay comedy. The pinnacle of Farrelly brothers movies for me is still There's Something About Mary.
The Adjustment Bureau - love me some Philip Dick, and this movie had a cool premise, but I don't think they took it far enough with the possibilities.
C.H.U.D. - Cannabilistic Humanoid Underground Dweller. A cult-horror flick from the eighties. I was a bit disappointed, didn't live up to the hype.
House - Another cult horror flick from the eighties. I liked it quite a bit. Had some humor in it.
I watched Stake Land a couple nights ago. Loved it. Vampire apocalypse a la Walking Dead, with bits of The Stand, The Road, Salems Lot and maybe Cell thrown in. Exceedingly gory, strong character development and acting. Looked GREAT for a low-budget movie, too. Well-chosen locations, skillful photography and editing.
We all float down here.

About 6 weeks ago I changed computers and did a fresh download of all my Accordance modules to the new computer. Today, I went to access Mounce's Basics of Biblical Greek and Morphology of Biblical Greek, but couldn't find either of them. Both were available to me with the old computer; neither seem to exist anywhere now. Am I doing something wrong?

Which Doc Are You?
I say this when things are going well and I say it when things are going crappy; have a plan, stick to that plan and do not get emotional. There has been worse market action in your life time.
For some the best plan is no action, to simply ride it out. Maybe that is you , maybe not, but you need to decide for yourself and hopefully you decided ahead of time which if you have been reading this site for any length of time how could you not have at least thought about the subject?
From here things could get better or they could get worse but I know that there will be those who panic who end up making it worse than it actually needs to be.
Plenty of folks on the teevee tell us not worry and not sell but I don't think that is the whole story. Selling something into this is not a sign of panic but selling everything, as one reader commented yesterday is a panicked move.
Lest anyone be confused or be a new reader I am all for defense but starting to take defensive action after a 20% decline is usually not the best time to start.
Hopefully this post conveys the lack of emotion I feel and hopefully you can stay calm throughout.
Now a dog PSA. The puppy we just brought home, Trixie, came down with parvo which is a virus that dogs get from other dogs or from the soil where infected dogs have been. Dogs with parvo throw up, have diarrhea and do not want to eat. This was the second time we have taken a dog to the vet on day two with parvo. Trixie is just fine. Puppies eat like fiends. Get your new puppy to the vet right away if it does not want to eat. Left untreated for even a couple of days parvo is deadly, jumped on right away, I mean right away it does not have to be. We are two for two catching it and treating it.

Hoping to prevent a market meltdown and recession, the Federal Reserve lowered its overnight lending rate by 75 basis points to 3.50% on Tuesday in a rare move between formal meetings. - 7:03 AM
- Stephen Drone said...
So I'll ask a dumb question.
I'm not happy with Ben's move. I'd like to see him stop shoving dollars down everyone's throat.
Given that, what should he be doing now? Just letting things ride? I mean, a recession doesn't scare me. I guess it scares stock markets around the world. - 7:06 AM
- Roger Nusbaum said...
i don't know what the fed should do. the appear to have made an attempt to stem the selling of equities. an hour later and we are closer to the low than the high made right after.
does this hurt their cred? i don't know. seems like it might but we'll know soon enough i guess. - 7:14 AM

If the fed thinks they need to lower interest rates then they should be lowering 50 bps at the regular fed meeting not in between meetings unless there is reason to panic.
not 75 bps to calm wall street between meetings. If they need to reassure the public all they have to do is have one of the governors "guess" the fed will lower 50 bps at their next meeting during an interview on cnbc. If the markets are still confused a second governor can be interviewed a few days later and again "guess" the fed will lower 50 bps at their next meeting. It is not hard to signal your intentions if you want to.
This is panic and poorly timed panic by idiots in my opinion - Just what you want from the FED. - 7:24 AM
- Willy said...
It seems to me that Ben & G. W. B. are are trying to get American consummers to increase their debt load & spend their way out of the current crisis.
Does that make any sense?
These same people are already too far in debt they can"t keep their houses. If B&B succeed in moderating the severity of the downturn, is it possible that this will only increase the length of the bear market?
Willy is left wondering. - 7:29 AM

Hopefully this will give people a chance to refinance and we will all live happily everafter.
Glad your puppy is OK:-)
I think it was a reaction to the market meltdown....;-) - 8:35 AM

Well, I can tell you what I am doing -- using the gains I realized in 2007 to buy in 2008. I may be early, but I'm not too, too worried on that front. A bear market, sure why not -- but a recession . . . not yet.
And I'm buying stuff that would give Roger fits (balancing sectors is not my interest, I prefer stuff I know well enough to decide that its cheap). I reserve the right to be wrong, but I've got a long timeline on these moves anyway. - 8:53 AM
- Stephen Drone said...
Yeah, it's sector balance time. I can't pick a bottom, so I might as well pick a random day and buy some REIT.
- Fred said...
Isn't Wall Street and every other major market in the world populated by adults presumed to be capable of managing their own affairs?
I would have much preferred that Prof Bernanke let the markets sort this out and have the Fed decide rates at their next meeting based on the Fed's defined responsibilities. - 11:05 AM

Writing Intensive (WI) and Cultural Diversity (CD) course requirements were installed on the UNK campus in 1994. The General Studies Council was originally charged with oversight of these requirements including approval of WI courses and instructors based on the following criteria; 1) length and type of writing assignments, 2) elements of editing and revision and 3) qualifications of instructors based on professional record in writing. Following the North Central Reaffirmation of 2004, the UNK Faculty Senate formally separated the evaluation of WI and CD from the General Studies Council with the formation of an ad hoc committee charged with governance of both elements of this University-wide curriculum. The committee was also explicitly charged at that time with submission of a report with "…specific recommendations to the Faculty Senate concerning the structure of WI and CD requirements and the governance of those courses by January 2007". The Faculty Senate reevaluated the duties of the ad hoc WI/CD Committee at its March 1, 2007 meeting. In addition to continued governance as had occurred from 2004 to that point, the committee was also charged to "Reevaluate the WI and CD programs for progress towards achieving stated student outcomes and the need for their continuation every three (3) years beginning in 2010". The year 2010 was thus essentially the "sunset" date established by Faculty Senate. Edited and revised writing has continued to be integrated into the curriculum University-wide. Regularly reviewed reporting confirms that evaluation of writing has transitioned from a single committee to the many academic departments and programs across campus. Writing has matured as an essential skill now embedded in all departments and programs. This is consistent with the expectation in 1994 that WI/CD would not continue indefinitely.
Discussions have occurred across campus in the last year regarding next steps in relation to the lapsed sunset date of 2010.
I concur with the leadership of the Faculty Senate, including the Academic Affairs Committee and the ad hoc WI/CD Committee, that substantive edited and revised writing has successfully transitioned to academic departments and programs. In relation to the CD requirement, the cultural environment has changed in ways that include several forms of diversity in the curriculum and social programs across campus. Further, the General Studies curriculum now includes a "Global Perspective" component in portal courses. The oversight by a University-wide ad hoc WI/CD committee is no longer necessary. Indeed, "ad hoc" presumes a particular activity is temporary.
The WI/CD Committee is hereby officially dissolved. Further, courses will no longer be shown with this designation in the class schedule nor will instructors be identified as "WI or CD approved".
Since the Spring 2013 class schedule is already complete, courses will appear with the designation of WI and CD for that semester; both in the printed copy and in the online class schedule. Effective immediately, the Registrar's Office will not check for WI/CD on Senior Checks. The Degree Audit for all current catalogs will include a statement indicating that the WI/CD designation is no longer in effect.
Currently, departments and programs assess writing within the disciplinary curriculums. This assessment will continue and becomes part of the formal report by each department or program 1) in annual reporting, 2) for Academic Program Reviews and 3) for North Central Accreditation reviews.
This notice has been posted on the WI/CD website and all material removed, other than past committee minutes and agendas.

Director of Assessment Dr. Jeanne Butler will be retiring at the end of the fall semester. During her eight years at UNK she has guided the campus in developing, implementing and sustaining a culture of assessment. Her commitment to "closing the assessment loop" has been instrumental in facilitating improvements in programs across the campus. We are very appreciative of Jeanne's dedication and contributions to UNK and wish her well.
Now that assessment has become integrated into all academic programming across campus we have an opportunity to restructure the Office of Assessment in order to maximize use of our resources. Effective January 2013, the Director of Assessment position will be reduced to half-time, and will be occupied year-round. This modification in no way reduces the importance of assessment, but recognizes the past efforts of Jeanne and others who were central to its successful implementation at UNK.
I am confident that assessment will continue to move forward under the leadership of a new director with the assistance from the Assessment Advisory Committee as well as department and college assessment coordinators. In the coming weeks I plan to move forward in a timely fashion with a process which ensures a smooth transition. I will explore options that will continue to build on the assessment foundation Jeanne and others have developed throughout the campus.
Dr. Peter Longo, Interim Director of the Honors Program, will complete his time in this position at the end of the fall semester 2012. He will return full time to his responsibilities in the Department of Political Science. Under Dr. Longo's leadership over the past 16 months, the academic qualifications for admission into the Honors Program were increased. The ACT composite score requirement for entrance increased from 26 to 27. The requirements for UNK's largest scholarship for incoming freshmen, the Omaha World Herald/Kearney Hub scholarship, increased from an ACT composite score of 28 to 30. Additionally, Dr. Longo has been responsible for the integration of undergraduate research and meaningful service into the experience of all Honors students. There are currently nearly 500 students in the Program. This year's freshmen class enrolled 125 new Honors freshmen with an average ACT score of 29.1. I thank Dr. Longo for all he has accomplished in his time as Interim Director.
This time of transition affords us an opportunity to restructure the Director's position. Historically, the position has been a half-time administrative appointment and a half-time faculty appointment. Recommendations by recent Academic Program Reviews coupled with the increasing expectations of the Honors Program across campus, underscore the importance of moving the position to full-time status.
An internal search will be conducted with a plan for filling the position in a full-time capacity by the start of the spring semester in January 2013. I am confident that we will meet this goal and continue the excellent momentum that Dr. Longo has brought to the Honors Program.
ITS is excited to announce that we have combined our Help Desk, Technology Store and Training under a new name UNK Technology Solutions effective October 1, 2012.
Our new name reflects our continued goal of supporting students, faculty and staff with the academic mission of the university and excellent technology solutions.
We look forward to continuing to work together with you as we continue to grow and diversify to better serve you.

Calvin T. Ryan Library is Celebrating its 50th Anniversary as a Federal Depository
Written by Rochelle Krueger, Government Documents firstname.lastname@example.com
The Calvin T. Ryan Library will host a reception on Thursday, October 25, from 2:00-4:00pm in the Government Documents department on the Library's second floor. At 2:30pm, join the Dean of the Library, Janet Wilke, along with honored speakers, Chancellor Doug Christensen, Senior Vice-Chancellor Charles Bicak, and Nebraska State Senator, Galen Hadley to help us commemorate the occasion.
The Federal Depository Library Program (FDLP) was established by Congress to ensure that the American public has access to government generated information. These information products are dispersed to depository libraries nationwide. The public can access numerous documents both in paper and electronically, and they have proven their vital role in student research at UNK.
FDLP libraries must be appointed by a member of Congress to be a depository. Former UNK Director of Libraries Alice Paine took the first steps in initiating the request to be designated a selective depository for federal documents. Former Congressman David Martin made the official appointment in 1962.
Calvin T. Ryan Library is one of only two federal depository libraries in Nebraska's Third Congressional District, which is roughly two-thirds of the geographic area of the state.
For the second year, UNK's Center for Rural Research and Develop is sponsoring the Central Nebraska Business Idea Contest. The center invites proposals from UNK faculty, staff, and students, as well as area community members and high school students. The proposals outline a business idea and are generally evaluated on feasibility and innovation.
The deadline is quickly approaching - entries must be submitted by midnight, Sunday, October 28. To enter, follow these steps:
All entrants and the public are invited to join us at KRave Underground on Wednesday, November 14th at 7:00 PM to watch the presentations and to mingle with other entrepreneurs, investors, designers and creatives!
Last year's contest generated 70 ideas, and the CRRD is hoping to receive at least 80 proposals this year.
For more information, visit the Business Idea Contest website or see the contest flyer.

Coz it's what the doc ordered...
13 comments:

My brazenness comes so naturally that it's quite disturbing lol. We were just chatting casually.
LOL Randy! I'm sorry to disappoint you but I'm not in love with Doc. I do like him as a good friend though. I find his perfection puzzling though... how do you have everything but you're still single? I guess he thinks the same about me :)~sigh~ I don't know what else to say to the Doc situation. We're very much alike, you and I. :)
As to the reality TV show... I'd be all over that! The brazen, uncouth, non-traditional stuff is what I like best about you. Why? Because your heart is always true and you remain true to yourself. If you can do those two things, then the first three things are just icing on the cake!I would watch your show, too! I bet it'd be TONS better than the Kardashians!
Doc sounds like a good friend to have on this path we call life. Makes the road more pleasant to walk on. I hope everything falls into place for you, Azra - and most importantly, I hope you enjoy the journey as best you can. You'll get there, I know you will. :)
(P.S. ...and when you do get there, you'll come up with something else to look forward to, that's just how we are, love!) :)Angie-
We'll have to see about that reality show although I don't think we have the balls to go through with it :)
If only other people felt about us the way we feel about them eh?
He is a good friend and I enjoy his company :)
Juliette - Doc and I are one of those tragic never-will-be stories that I hate so much. If you guys had to watch our reality show, I think you'd die laughing, we're so inappropriate.
ipenka - Welcome and thanks for taking the time to comment! :)
Megan - I'm full of "what ifs" myself... but there's just no way in this instance *le sigh*Hmmm I think I feel a tad under the weather, what's the Dr's name? :P
Well I remember the first post that I read of yours, last year after the World Cup, (it was about the WC)it was awesome and I thought omg this girl must be soooo much fun to hang out with, so I think the reality show idea is actually spot on :)

Introducing Mount Olympus for startups

- Email | Twitter
A group of twentysomething entrepreneurs that in 2008 hunkered down in a mountain-top ski resort in Utah to discuss what's good for business, and what's good for the world, today announced they've taken over the entire mountain.
"Our vision is to create an epicenter of innovation around a residential community on the southern side of Powder Mountain," Elliot Bisnow, the 27-year-old cofounder of Summit said in a statement. "To create a place that has a positive impact not just on the residents of Summit Eden and the Ogden Valley, but the state of Utah, and the world."
In March, it was rumored that Binsow and the three other cofounders of the Eden, Utah-based Summit, had raised $40 million to buy the mountain. And today the team announced it has officially taken over management of the 10,000-acre space to host a startup village likened to both the Burning Man festival and TED in a TechCrunch article.
The Summit Series has been running since 2008, when Bisnow and 19 other entrepreneurs gathered somewhat informally to discuss the future of entrepreneurship. A year later the White House asked them to organize the nation's top entrepreneurs, according to their site.
Richard Branson, Peter Thiel, and Peter Diamandis are amongst the influential entrepreneurs who have attended Summit Series gatherings in the past, with last year's event attracting 650 leaders in business, philanthropy, science, technology, for the four-day gathering—no press allowed.
Startup Eden on the other hand is a permanent village.
"Our goal is to create a place that has a positive impact not just on the residents of Summit Eden and the Ogden Valley, but the state of Utah, and the world," said Bisnow.
That's about all we know about the plans. But skiers and snowboarders concerned about their favorite mountain can relax. Powder Mountain, which at 10,000 acres, is the nation's largest skiable space, Summit says, will remain open to the public.

Short shorts and a big bump, even her casual mommy look is chic and sexy.
Even the most anonymous pieces, like this shapeless black top, are spiced up by Heidi with accents like a hardware-detailed bag and colorful bracelets.
Whoa mama! Heidi's silhouettes are still muscular while obviously showing she's a mommy-to-be.
Heidi and little Leni run errands, with Klum exuding a boho glow in this textured maxi.
For the red carpet, a metallic chic in a flattering asymmetrical makes her look both hot and mama.

Alert: The following services will be unavailable on Saturday, January 5, 2013 from 12 a.m. (midnight) to 6 a.m. CST due to system maintenance.
Outdoor advertising
Installation permit | Annual fee | License to erect signs
State and federal highway beautification laws say it is in the public interest "to promote the safety, convenience and enjoyment of public travel, to preserve the natural beauty of Wisconsin, to aid in the free flow of interstate commerce, to protect the public investment in highways, and to conform to the expressed intent of Congress to control the erection and maintenance of outdoor advertising signs."
Outdoor advertising includes, but is not limited to:
- Billboards
- Service club and religious notices
- Directional signs
Installation permit
A permit is required to erect an outdoor advertising sign on private
lands that is visible from a state or federal highway. The permit
stays in effect as long as the sign continues to meet legal
A non-refundable permit application fee of $175 is required for most types of signs. Some sign categories are exempt from the application fee, including service club and religious notices and official signs erected by public officers or agencies.
To obtain an outdoor advertising installation permit, contact the Outdoor Advertising Program coordinator in the regional transportation office closest to where the sign would be located, or download the three-page application form using the links below. The regional coordinator may refer you to a checklist, depending on the sign's category. The checklist will help you prepare your permit application. Links to available checklists are provided below.

The annual fee is $35 for most signs. However, an annual fee of $50 applies to directional, nonconforming, and grandfathered signs. Nonconforming and grandfathered signs are signs that were installed prior to the state's 1972 sign control law or were erected legally after the law was enacted, but that no longer meet the requirements for a new sign permit.
Exemptions from the annual fee
Several types of signs are exempt
from the annual fee. These include:
