Standing Committee on Earth Science and Applications from Space (CESAS)
Project Information
ScopeThe overarching purpose for the committee is to support scientific progress in Earth system science and applications, with an emphasis on research requiring global data that are best acquired from space. The scope for CESAS includes programs that develop a scientific understanding of the Earth system and its response to natural and human-induced changes in order to enable improved prediction of climate, weather, and natural hazards for present and future generations. These programs include an end-to-end approach encompassing observations from space-based and suborbital platforms, data and information management, research and analysis, modeling, scientific assessments, applications demonstration, technology development, and education. CESAS provides an independent, authoritative forum for identifying and discussing issues in earth sciences and applications from space between the research community, the federal government, and the interested public.
The CESAS will also monitor the progress in implementation of the recommendations of the Earth Science and Applications from Space (ESAS) decadal survey----building on the survey that was tasked with generating consensus recommendations from the Earth and environmental science and applications community regarding science priorities, opportunities afforded by new measurement types and new vantage points, and a systems approach to space-based and ancillary observations that encompass the research programs of NASA and the related operational programs at NOAA. The need for careful monitoring is underscored by the fact that developments that could trigger the need for reassessment include cost growth and/or changes of scope in the project baseline.
In fulfilling these responsibilities, the committee may formulate and oversee ad hoc studies related to the implementation of the ESAS survey and on issues in Earth science and applications from space more broadly, including the following:
The committee is pleased to acknowledge support from NASA for this activity.

Making The Case For StakeholdersScientific evidence can help collaborations or coalitions make the case about the need for and efficacy of strategies to reduce the prevalence of chronic disease in their communities, especially for those strategies whose health outcomes are not often immediate. |
Our Healthier Communities Initiatives are built on the concept that local communities can work together to give all community members healthy choices and support the pursuit of healthy lifestyles. More than 160 Ys are working in collaboration with community leaders to make changes in policies and the physical surroundings in those communities so that healthy living is within reach for individuals of all ages and backgrounds.
Breastfed children have shown a reduced risk of overweight and obesity. Increasing awareness and acceptance of breastfeeding through policies that support breastfeeding in the workplace can increase breastfeeding practices.
Breastfed children have shown reduced risk of overweight and obesity. Efforts to increase support for breastfeeding programs have the potential to improve breastfeeding practices. Increasing awareness and acceptance of breastfeeding through enhanced support—especially hospital-based educational programs—has been successful in increasing breastfeeding initiation and duration, particularly for low-income women. Peer counseling has also been significantly associated with breastfeeding initiation over the first three months post-partum. In contrast, research has shown that providing women discharge packs with free formula has a negative impact on breastfeeding. Policies that support breastfeeding in the workplace will likely remove barriers and extend breastfeeding practices more widely.

Green Bay Packers QB Seneca Wallace (groin) is headed to Injured Reserve due to his groin injury.
Huddle Up: The Packers already brought in Matt Flynn to back up Scott Tolzien while they wait for Aaron Rodgers to return.
Posted: 11/5/2013 10:49pm et
Updating previous reports, Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers confirmed that he suffered a fractured left collarbone in Week 9, but insisted that there is no timetable for his return. He will not need surgery. Rodgers did acknowledge that 'it's a significant injury.' He said the pain was 'considerably more' than he's felt in a while. Rodgers is still going through the testing process. QB Seneca Wallace will handle the first-team repetitions in practice this week and enter Week 10 against the Philadelphia Eagles as the starting quarterback. Green Bay also promoted QB Scott Tolzien from its practice squad and could sign another QB.
Huddle Up: Hard to say when fantasy owners can expect the QB to return, and at this point, having him for the fantasy playoffs -- provided their teams qualify -- might be the best they can hope for.
Posted: 9/2/2013 11:03am et
The Green Bay Packers signed free-agent QB Seneca Wallace to an undisclosed deal.
Huddle Up: Wait, didn't he just retire? Curious. The Packers do have a need for a backup quarterback, though, and adding a veteran like Wallace makes sense.
Posted: 8/30/2013 9:44am et
San Francisco 49ers QB Seneca Wallace informed the team he has decided to retire. Wallace was originally set to be released by the club; he was No. 4 on the depth chart behind Colin Kaepernick, Colt McCoy and B.J. Daniels.
Huddle Up: Wallace walked in late to a situation that was already mostly set, and when McCoy agreed to a reduced contract there wasn't much opportunity left for him. Rather than hang around until another team needs a mobile quarterback later in the season, Wallace appears ready to move on.
Posted: 8/29/2013 11:39pm et
The San Francisco 49ers plan to release QB Seneca Wallace.
Huddle Up: Wallace reportedly has hold the 49ers he's calling a halt to his comeback attempt, leaving Colt McCoy and seven-round pick B.J. Daniels behind starter Colin Kaepernick. Daniels will only stick on the active roster if the Niners decide to keep three QBs.
Posted: 4/15/2013 3:23pm et
The New Orleans Saints have signed free-agent QB Seneca Wallace to a one-year deal. Financial terms were not disclosed.
Huddle Up: Wallace will battle Luke McCown for clipboard duty in New Orleans. Neither name would give Saints fans cause to breathe easy should something happen to Drew Brees.
Posted: 4/11/2013 11:38pm et
Updating a previous report, the Oakland Raiders are not signing free-agent QB Seneca Wallace (Browns) at this point. The team could consider signing Wallace later in the offseason.
Huddle Up: So the wait goes on for Wallace who has also visited the Seahawks lately but was bypassed in favor of Brady Quinn.
Posted: 4/9/2013 10:56pm et
The Oakland Raiders will visit with free agent QB Seneca Wallace (Browns) Wednesday, April 9.
Huddle Up: The Raiders are looking for a proven option at QB with Matt Flynn (2 career starts) and Terrelle Pryor (1) as the only quarterbacks on the roster at the moment.
Posted: 4/9/2013 12:05pm et
The Seattle Seahawks worked out free-agent QBs Tyler Thigpen (Bills), Seneca Wallace (Browns), Matt Leinart (Raiders) and Brady Quinn (Chiefs) Monday, April 8, but will take some time before signing one of them.
Huddle Up: Wallace, a former Seahawk who's spent the past 2 seasons in Cleveland, would appear to be the best bit behind second-year man Russell Wilson, but Seattle might want to cover a few more bases before making a final call.
Posted: 4/7/2013 1:46pm et
The Seattle Seahawks are expected to pursue free-agent QB Seneca Wallace (Browns) to be their backup quarterback because he could run the read-option offense.
Huddle Up: Wallace, who spent his first 5 NFL seasons as a backup in Seattle, definitely appears to be a better fit than Matt Leinart or Brady Quinn, the other QBs the Seahawks are rumored to be interested in.

Despite US imposed sanctions, the Iranian capital's Apple stores are full and thriving. The high-tech youth of Tehran love iPods and Macs as much as anyone. And creative businesses aren't letting a little thing like an international blockade get in the way of feeding that appetite.

Matthew Chamberlain (born April 17, 1967) is an American drummer, producer, and sound engineer. He is currently based in Los Angeles, California.
Early life:
Matt Chamberlain was born and raised in San Pedro, California. His father Sonnie Joe Chamberlain and mother Maria Victoria Ponce. He grew up air drumming and using pots and pans as makeshift drums. Chamberlain began playing drums at the age of ten. He was influenced by the local San Pedro music scene and by getting in to all ages shows at the Dancing Waters Club (Minutemen, Black Flag, Firehose,) and by listening to the drumming of John Bonham, Ringo Starr, Stewart Copeland, Neil Peart, and Terry Bozzio. Chamberlain received his first set of drums at the age of fifteen, and studied with David Garibaldi, Murray Spivack, Chuck Flores, and Gregg Bissonette. Three years later, he was awarded a scholarship to study at North Texas State University where he studied with Henry Okstel. Chamberlain quit college and started playing professionally in the Dallas, Texas Deep Ellum scene in the mid-1980s.
Musical career:
His first notable work was with Ten Hands, a locally popular Denton, Texas band. Ten Hands briefly enjoyed heaps of acclaim and an impressive following in the band's home state. In 1988, Chamberlain left Ten Hands to join Edie Brickell & New Bohemians, with whom he toured and recorded from 1988 until 1991 when the band broke up. He can be heard playing on the band's 1990 album, Ghost of a Dog. In the summer of 1991, he briefly joined the band Pearl Jam and toured with the band before the release of its debut album, Ten. He can be seen in the band's first video, "Alive". Chamberlain said, "I toured in the van with them, played a bunch of clubs--I had a good time, definitely had a good time. They wanted me to join the band, but Edie Brickell & New Bohemians had just broke up, I had just got off the road after touring for four years straight--I could not imagine doing it again." For his replacement, Chamberlain suggested drummer and friend Dave Abbruzzese. Chamberlain left Pearl Jam to join the house band for Saturday Night Live during the 1991-1992 season where he was able to play with and back up artists such as Johnny Winter, Charlie Musselwhite, Jon Faddis, Steve Turre, Leon Pendarvis and work with comedians Steve Martin, Chris Farley, Mike Meyers and Dana Carvey on musical skits.
At the end of 1992, he moved to Seattle, Washington to start the band Critters Buggin with Skerik and Brad Houser. The band has since released six albums and is currently active. In 1993, Chamberlain toured as a member of the funk band Weapon of Choice. In 1996, he received career boosts after performing on albums by The Wallflowers (Bringing Down the Horse) which he won a Grammy for "best recorded performance" and Fiona Apple (Tidal). In 1998, Chamberlain began working with singer-songwriter Tori Amos, with whom he gained recognition. He performed on her 1998 album, From the Choirgirl Hotel, and since then he has contributed to several of Amos' albums and tours. He has worked on combining live and looped drums, often creating loops on the fly and then playing along to them. Amos has introduced Chamberlain as "the human loop" at her concerts. He was nominated Musician Of The Year at the 2004 CMA's.
Since the mid-1990s, Chamberlain has become well known as a session drummer, having appeared on over 200 records with sales well over 80 million worldwide. The diverse range of artists that Chamberlain has contributed his drumming to the tours and albums of include Peter Gabriel, The Wallflowers, Fiona Apple, Sam Phillips, Kanye West, Weapon of Choice, David Torn, Tori Amos, Chris Isaak, Macy Gray, Stevie Nicks, Dave Navarro, Kevin Max, Master Musicians of Jajouka, Stone Gossard, Martina McBride, Garbage, Elton John, Natalie Merchant, Anika Moa, David Bowie, Brad Mehldau, Keith Urban, Liz Phair, John Mayer, Finn Brothers, William Shatner, Jon Brion, Robbie Williams, Shakira, Morrissey, Indigo Girls, Sean Lennon, Sarah McLachlan, Sara Bareilles, Brandi Carlile, Dido, Lisa Marie Presley, Elvis Costello, Bruce Hornsby, and Regina Spektor.
In 2005, he released a self-titled solo album on Web of Mimicry Records that he describes as "an imaginary soundtrack to an Asian-Western-Sci-Fi-Horror Movie." He is in a group called the Slow Music Project with Bill Rieflin, Peter Buck, Robert Fripp, Hector Zazou, and Fred Chalenor. In August 2007, Chamberlain and musician Bill Frisell released the debut album for the musical project Floratone. In 2010 Drum Magazine named him one of the 15 Greatest Groove Drummers Of All Time.
In 2011 he started a solo Electro/Acoustic project called "Company 23" He will be releasing a recording for this project and doing shows in 2011.
He won the ACM Country Drummer Of The Year in 2012 http://www.acmcountry.com/winners_dynamic.html

Aza Wellness is home to experienced and licensed massage therapist and holistic health practitioner Razan Gregory, a graduate of the Baltimore School of Massage. In a cozy environment, clients receive a one-hour signature massage ($65) that combines calming Swedish-massage techniques, a muscle-untensing deep-tissue massage, stretching for increased range of motion, and rocking movements gentle enough to balance bodies. Afterward, patients can relax with a 25-minute anti-aging facial massage ($50), which exfoliates before massaging the facial/neck/décolleté zones, cleansing with a honey mask, hydrating, and applying an essential-oil-drenched hot towel. The treatment turns an adult face into that of a baby adult or just a baby.
The Still Point is a women-owned small business that serves the greater DC and Baltimore metro areas with a range of eco-friendly health, beauty and wellness services. Our expertly trained practitioners give services in beautiful and inviting environments and we are pleased to have the area's only organic beauty boutique.
Guests pass by the ArtIz Gallery Lounge's walls adorned with the work of local artists before entering The Art Spa, where they benefit from the expertise of licensed aesthetician Ms. Cherie. In addition to three types of facials, she and her team expertly remove unwanted hair as painlessly as possible during more than 25 waxing treatments. To beautify blinks, she applies eyelash extensions using both flares and individual lashes.
For six years, Body Bliss's therapists traveled around Maryland, Virginia, and the District, bringing relaxation to its clients as a mobile massage-therapy company. Now with a permanent location, the massage center quells tension with the gliding strokes of Swedish massage and firmer deep-tissue modalities to treat the specific needs of athletes or statues that can't move until their museum closes. Nationally certified massage therapist Reginald A. Taylor guides the team of experienced massage therapists, who tailor treatments to root out the sources of each client's pain.

Talking Capital One Cup and James Anderson with ESPN's Rece Davis
Yesterday at The Times Center in New York City, I had the opportunity to attend the press conference announcing the new Capital One Cup.
The Capital One Cup is a new premier award for excellence in on-field performance in Division I college sports. It awards one men's and one women's NCAA® Division I athletics program for their cumulative on-field performance across multiple sports during the fall, winter and spring athletics seasons.
Once the seasons are done, $200, 000 will be awarded to the winning program (men's and women's sports) for graduate level scholarships. The winners will be announced during the annual ESPY awards.
After the press conference I had a chance to speak with ESPN's Rece Davis who hosts College Gameday and is an Advisory Board member for the Capital One Cup. We spoke on the new Capital One Cup and San Antonio Spurs' rookie James Anderson.
As Rece and I meet, he gives me a hearty handshake.
Jeff: The Capital One Cup has to give a new competitive wrinkle to collegiate sports.
Rece: I don't think there is any question about it. It gives an opportunity for sports that don't get a lot of recognition to have some of the light shining on them for a change and it still maintains the fan interest of the sports who follow them closely whether its men's basketball or football or women's basketball. There are so many things out there that get a lot of attention in college sports that aren't great. But that's the minutia. The percentage of things that go wrong in college sports is very small. The Capital One Cup is an opportunity to shine a light on things that are right. The accomplishments on the field, opportunities from an educational stand point for the two programs that win and really it's an opportunity to generate some enthusiasm, some bragging rights, some back-and-forth with the fans by keeping up with the standings over the course of the year.
How user friendly is the Capital One Cup point system going to be for the fans?
They will just be able to log on to the website www.capitalonecup.com and see the standings. It's based on how teams finish with the premium placed on winning championships. It's based on the final results of the season, the final poll, whatever it may be so there won't be any guess work, there won't be any ambiguity to it. You have a certain amount of points based on how you finish. Depending on what tier the sport is in, I know that sounds a little confusing, but basically think of it this way: the sports that get the most attention, get the most points. They get a bonus bump for finishing well in those sports. That's basically the easiest way and really the only way to think of it. But as far as logging on and keeping up, they'll (the fans) log on the website, there will be a point total there. They'll see and they'll know that with the upcoming sport they will have to do well if they want to make up ground with a school that is in front of them.
I can hear it now, "How many Cup points do you have?"
Exactly! And I can guarantee you that athletic directors will care about that and in turn the donors will care about that and in turn the fans will care about that and they'll do that! Like Robin Ventura mentioned today, that if you have a tennis program and it doesn't do well in the Capital One Cup and you think "If we had done better in tennis, we would have won this thing," you're going to get that type of positive energy and positive input to encourage schools to try to be the best in as many sports as they possibly can be.
It's as if this is going to unify all the teams at a particular college.
Exactly. It's team work. It's one of the tenets of Capital One. It's one of the things you learn by playing sports and its something you learn for all aspects of your life so it's a really good marriage.
Let's talk about college basketball and the most recent NBA draft. James Anderson from Oklahoma State was drafted by the San Antonio Spurs and many felt he was a steal. Why is that?
Hubert Davis, my partner on College Gameday, thought he was the best and most pro-ready shooting guard in the game last year. He's a mid-size, athletic guy, very strong and he has the physical ability to breakdown defenses at the pro level. He is also an explosive scorer. He has all of the tools you want but because Oklahoma State was good not great, maybe some of the general public didn't necessarily look at him as being one of the big guys. Also he wasn't just one year removed from high school and what happens, I think now with the NBA, sometimes if a guy is around too long, people start trying to pick him apart or they start looking for what's wrong instead of what's right. There's a lot right with James Anderson. He's going to be an excellent player.
Where you suprised he didn't get drafted higher?
A little bit. But a lot of that ends of being contract, need, what are we doing with our (cap) space, injuries, whatever it might be each team has it's own unique set of circumstances that often orchestrates who they draft and who they place value on. I'm not ever too often surprised once you get past the top 10 or 11 picks and what a team might do because there's usually some type of ulterior motive at work.
What makes Anderson a Spurs type player?
Because they have a lot of blue-collar role player guys who are more talented than you think. Guys who aren't afraid to defend, guys who don't worry about number of shots, guys who don't worry about the number of plays run for them, guys who, within reason, are not too worried about about minutes. Anderson, while being the star of his team (Oklahoma State) I never viewed him as being a selfish player at all. He's a guy who understands "the team," he understands fitting into a role, he understands contributing in a variety of areas other than just scoring. Because of that, that's why he is going to fit in with the Spurs because the Spurs have a history of winning championships with guys like him.
Thanks to Taylor PR and Don Povia (Blogs With Balls) for inviting Project Spurs to attend the press conference.

Basics Literati is a word game where up to four players compete by creating words from various letter tiles. The game is played on a 15x15 grid on which players create words by placing tiles at intersections on the grid. Certain intersections have special values and can increase a player's score. Scores are totaled off the point values of each letter tile plus any bonuses. The first player creates a word using the center intersection and everyone, in turn, must play off of the tiles on the board to create new words. The game is over when all the letter tiles are played or no player can spell a valid word with the tiles they have left. The player with the highest score wins the game.

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments about Bad Habit Adult Womens Plus Size Costume:
Very cute and simple costume. I'm 5'4 and a size 12 and this was a little big on me. Was too afraid to try the costume that wasn't plus size because I didn't want something too short. Better quality than other costumes I tried on in my local Halloween store.

Description: This Capstone team examined the economic consequences of the high number of high school dropouts in Texas. Their report discusses alternative strategies for measuring the dropout rate, and provides estimates of the dropout rate for different geographic regions and student populations. The team also estimated of the economic benefits and costs associated with reducing the high dropout rate in Texas. Finally, the team reviewed available research regarding dropout prevention programs in order to identify best practices that could be implemented in Texas. One goal of the study was to inform and encourage a broader discussion by the Texas Legislature of the state's high school dropout rate and the societal and economic impact of failing to address the problem.

Description: Abriendo Puertas is a small, education non-profit using parental engagement initiatives to reduce the number of Hispanic student dropouts in Texas. To date, Abriendo Puertas has seen much success - both in recognition by external organizations and in the wide support of its parent participants and volunteers. As such, Abriendo Puertas hopes to expand its program across the state, most notably to the Fort Worth area. The nonprofit is interested in solidifying its current operations in the hope of expanding its impact.
Building upon previous research, an Expansion Management Model (EMM) was produced to guide Abriendo Puertas' efforts. Combining research-based best practices, an analysis of the nonprofit's current practices (based primarily on an internal assessment), and a survey of the parents involved with Abriendo Puertas, the EMM includes tailored recommendations to Abriendo Puertas' needs. The Capstone team made four key recommendations: 1. Solidify the organization's mission; 2. Expand and diversify the board of directors; Complete a strategic marketing plan; and Develop a database to track the organization's parent participants and volunteers. The Capstone report includes the final Expansion Management Model, complete with a full set of recommendations, a description of the Assessment Tool and Survey, as well as a demographic analysis identifying possible expansion points within the state of Texas.

The Minnesota Council of Nonprofits (MCN), led by Jon Pratt ( 2007)[more][less]
Description: This capstone group conducted an analysis of the nonprofit capacity-building "industry" in Minnesota. (The nonprofit capacity-building "industry" comprises the consultants, private and nonprofit firms, management support organizations, and academic centers that provide technical assistance and leadership training to nonprofits.) It was a replication of studies by Dr. Angela Bies in Pittsburgh during 2004-2005 and of a Central Texas capstone during 2005-2006. This capstone project contributed to a growing interest in measuring the effectiveness of nonprofit capacity-building efforts and the degree to which those efforts influence nonprofit organizational effectiveness. The general purpose of the project was to provide information about effective strategies and interventions to strengthen nonprofit management and organizational capacity, the types of challenges nonprofit organizations and providers face in building capacity, and the degree to which there were unmet needs in the region.
A multi-method approach was utilized including a survey administered to nonprofits by both an online and paper questionnaire; interviews with a representative sample of capacity building providers, policy makers, and funders; and focus groups with nonprofit executives. Results were also compared to the results obtained in the Pittsburgh and Central Texas studies.
This project addressed substantial gaps in both the practitioner-oriented and academic literature because it provided a comprehensive, empirically derived understanding of the link between capacity-building efforts and organizational change.

Abstract: The capstone team conducted a comprehensive review of all New Orleans Civil Service System policies and institutional arrangements. The research activity included reviews of the literature on civil service systems; analyses of legal and constitutional requirements for New Orleans and the State of Louisiana; in-depth interviews with dozens of experts and stakeholders who have direct experience with the New Orleans Civil Service System; reviews of all reports, planning documents and evaluations of the New Orleans Civil Service System; and case study analyses of comparable cities and states. The students identified several problems in system recruiting, operations, training, and evaluation and made specific recommendations to overcome these difficulties. The New Orleans mayor has embraced these recommendations and begun implementing them in the Civil Service System. The students participated in city hall briefings and news conferences highlighting their recommendations.

Ambassador David Abshire and the Laury Foundation ( 2006)[more][less]
Description: The President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board (PFIAB) was established in 1956 to provide the President with a nonpartisan evaluation of the role and effectiveness of U.S. intelligence collection, counterintelligence, covert action operations, and intelligence analysis. Over the years, PFIAB has evolved to reflect the needs of the times and in response to the style of each president. In addition, the government has created new centers and other organizations leading to competing views and the bureaucratic challenge of coordination and oversight of intelligence.
No detailed analysis of PFIAB had been conducted. In the wake of the 9/11 tragedy and the new intelligence reform environment, it was essential to examine the role of the PFIAB in the past to determine how it best can serve future presidents' national security decision-making responsibilities. The aim of the analysis was to determine what had been the strengths and weaknesses of the PFIAB in the past and to identify a productive role for the PFIAB in this new environment. Given the current intelligence needs of the country, such an examination was essential. It helped further define the role of PFIAB and shed light on the interrelationship of various intelligence components. Most importantly, it provided recommendations for presidential action to redefine, and possibly augment, the role of the PFIAB.

Description: Gaps of understanding exist between Homeland Security Response and Recovery strategies and policies at the federal level versus understanding, authority, and capability at the state and local level. Responsibilities, authority, and expectations at every level of government (including the public) need to be clarified. Hurricanes Katrina and Rita provide an excellent case study to see what policies should be changed in the areas of response and recovery to major disasters in the future.
A variety of strategies, policies, and plans are already in place to deal with disasters and catastrophic events. Faculty members provided access to documents that describe the policies, as well as a framework to examine response and recovery "at the tip of the spear." Students selected the aspect of the framework they wished to address, fleshed it out in detail through discussions and research, identified the gaps in theory, used Hurricanes Katrina and/or Rita to examine how those gaps developed in reality, and developed a set of policy recommendations to close those gaps. The final student recommendations were presented to the clients.

Description: Government agencies face special problems when they seek to assess non-disaster security risks in areas where there are multiple jurisdictions and levels of governance. The client, Centra Technology, in support of the Department of Homeland Security, sought a conceptual approach or theoretical model for determining how governments should value, assess, and balance risks that arise from illegal immigration, weapons smuggling, the narcotics trade, natural disasters, and terrorism. The students compiled and evaluated the available literature on the subject and developed a structure by which policymakers should consider the difficulties of regional risk assessment.

Description: From 1990 to 2005, estimates of the unauthorized alien population in the United States have risen from 3.5 million to 11.5 million people, a 325 percent increase. It has been the federal government's responsibility to prevent unauthorized immigration. However, a small number of localities have taken action over the past few years to prevent unauthorized immigration within their jurisdictions by passing a series of ordinances and resolutions. Some of the localities passed ordinances and resolutions targeting the businesses and landlords who hire and rent to unauthorized aliens, while others passed legislation targeting day labor centers, loitering, and government services. Consistent with findings made in other studies, we found that only approximately 100 localities have or are considering legislation that would impact their unauthorized alien communities.

Ghosh, Banashwar; Hokom, Meghan; Hunt, Zachary; Magdaleno, Miriam; Su, Baoqiang ( 2008)[more][less]
Description: This capstone team conducted an analysis of bilingual and English as a second language (ESL) practices in the state of Texas. Their analysis has three distinct parts. In the first part, the team developed four indicators of school success with respect to students who have limited English proficiency (LEP). In the second part, they developed a survey of teacher, classroom and program characteristics that they distributed to all elementary and middle schools with at least 30 LEP students. The final part of their analysis examined the relationship between their four measures of school success and the survey responses regarding instructional practices and program characteristics. The team found that there were no school-level differences in performance between teachers in bilingual education programs and teachers in ESL programs. They also found that consistent instruction in one language (either English or Spanish) was more effective for content learning than a mix of instructional languages, and that instructional methods identified as particularly effective by the existing bilingual/ESL literature are widely practiced in Texas.

Filene Institute for Credit Union Research ( 2007)[more][less]
Description: This project explored the role of the board of directors in decision-making during mergers and acquisitions. Mergers are a viable and wide-spread growth strategy for many credit unions. The study considered how the board engaged or disengaged in the process of working through issues related to mergers and acquisitions. Merger opportunities are strategic decision opportunities for organizations, and boards are critical to ensuring good decision-making.
The first step was to identify credit unions that had debated merger proposals. It was desirable to identify both credit unions that had completed the process as well as those that had withdrawn from the proposal. Based upon a sample of respondents who met the desired criteria, students conducted interviews with the senior executive and at least one board member.
The project interviewed 15-20 organizations (or about 30-40 executives and board members). Most of the interviews focused on decision-making processes, how opportunities and alternatives were or were not explored, and how member interests were considered. This allowed individuals to effectively describe the decision-making context and how board members were engaged. Decision quality was also considered, although it is very difficult to determine the benefits of a merger that did not take place. Consequently, we asked for perceptions of the decision quality, but quantifiable determination of benefits is probably not available in this research design. A filene research monograph was produced as a result of this project.

World Bank, Trade Division ( 2008)[more][less]
Description: This is the second part of a study that began by asking whether exports to developed countries are hampered by the inability of developing Southern African countries to participate fully in the meat export market. The project was broken into two segments focusing on the formal and informal sectors. After conducting in-depth research and refining the development problem, students designed a survey model and flew two group members to Southern Africa to conduct a survey.

Description: The Iraqi insurgency was formed by multiple nationalities and ethnicities with disparate goals and motivations. A central question to understanding the insurgency's unity is whether there is command and control, which is defined as the sharing of tactics, information, and skills. This capstone explored this question by investigating how insurgent groups in the past have managed to communicate and disseminate tactics, even while operating in a dangerous environment controlled by their more powerful adversary. The class then applied this historical lesson to the current situation in Iraq and examined whether the history of attacks indicated command and control in the Iraqi insurgency.

Description: This report was prepared as part of a graduate student capstone project at the George Bush School of Government and Public Service for our client, the Brazos Community Foundation (BCF). We believe the report has implications for the BCF and the broader nonprofit community in the Brazos Valley.
The project team identified ten potential community leadership roles based on best practices in the field and interests of the BCF. Students conducted interviews with 25 local nonprofit leaders, Texas A&M University representatives, as well as other community foundations to inform our recommendations.
After careful evaluation of data the group identified five community leadership roles with the most potential for implementation by the Brazos Community Foundation and the Brazos Valley at large. These roles received wide support, were feasible - based on available resources, and aligned with the mission and purpose of BCF. Students developed a series of action steps to provide guidance for the implementation of these roles. Through the interviews students discovered many opportunities for partnerships in implementing roles.

Description: This study provided an analysis of the relative costs and benefits of a high-quality, universally-accessible pre-kindergarten program in Texas. The analysis identified the costs and benefits unique to Texas' population, workforce, economy and existing educational system. It concluded that even when making very conservative assumptions, the benefits of universally-accessible, high-quality pre-kindergarten for four-year-olds in Texas greatly outweigh the costs.

Description: Deregulation has put the freight railroad industry on a more secure financial footing. In general, the transformation of the rail industry since the Staggers Rail Act of 1980 has been viewed by stakeholders at many levels as verwhelmingly positive. Perhaps most important to note is that deregulation has allowed the rail industry to fully realize the benefits of operating as a private business — cutting costs, boosting productivity, eliminating unprofitable lines, and gaining a higher degree of business autonomy. One consequence of this reduction in physical capacity is that often only one railroad company's lines run on a particular route, resulting in monopolistic pricing practices.

Two Former AU Football Players, Student Shot Dead; Manhunt Underway for SuspectFormer Auburn University football players Ed Christian and Ladarious Phillips, and Auburn student Demario Pitts, all 20-years-old, are confirmed dead after a Saturday night shooting at an off-campus apartment complex, Auburn Police Chief Tommy Dawson said at a press conference Sunday afternoon. Three others suffered gunshot wounds. They are current AU football player Eric Mack, 20; John Robertson, 20; and Xavier Moss, 19. A police press release says Moss was treated and released. Mack has been admitted to East Alabama Medical Center and Robertson was transferred to UAB Hospital in Birmingham. The shooting happened Saturday at about 10:00 pm at the University Heights apartment complex during a party in the clubhouse. A manhunt is now underway for suspect 22-year-old Desmonte Leonard of Montgomery. Chief Dawson says law enforcement is looking in the Montgomery area for Leonard. Police say Leonard fled the scene of the shooting in a vehicle along with two other men. The vehicle was later found abandoned off Wire Road in Macon County. Leonard is considered armed and dangerous. Three warrants for Capital Murder have been obtained on Leonard. Police says they are also working to locate and question the two men who fled with Leonard. Their identities are not being released at this time. Stay with CBS 8 News for updates. |

Climate change is real, and its impact is potentially devastating to our
way of life. So why do the news media have such a hard time telling the
straight story?
Why expect political balance on talk TV when the networks are wedded to the belief that all the action is on the right?
Coretta Scott King's funeral should have been a paean to liberal values. Instead, talking heads nattered over the etiquette of speaking truth to power.
Despite his lies and incompetence, Bush remains more popular with elite
media than Clinton or any other political leader who sought to save us
from the Iraq catastrophe. Why won't they connect the dots?
Coverage of the Alito hearings revealed once again that there is no
liberal bias in mainstream media.
If we are suspending the law in deference to Bush's unchecked impulses,
let's call it by its proper name: Benign lawlessness? Gitmo Governance?
Fear Factor?
The willingness of our most powerful media companies to defer to
pressure from the White House is deeply disconcerting. In the name of
national security, the Bush team repeatedly demonstrates its contempt
for the media and for normative standards of truth.
Bush is on the defensive. The GOP is mired in corruption. The media are waking up. Civil liberties are beginning to matter. See? Good things did happen in 2005.
This just in: The Pentagon offers yet another lesson in democracy. Just don't look for any bylines.
Bush brings a robust simplicity to the business of news
management: Where possible, buy journalists to turn out favorable
stories. And if you think you can get away with it, shoot them or blow
them up.

Harry Redknapp's successful and eventful spell as Tottenham Hotspur manager ended on Thursday, the club dismissing he man who took them from the bottom of the Premier League to victories over European giants.Redknapp, heavily linked to the England job before the Football Association appointed Roy Hodgson last month, had one-year remaining on his contract and said in recent weeks he hoped to renew it. But after a rollercoaster season where Spurs narrowly missed out on a place in the Champions League after pushing for the title, and Redknapp was cleared of tax evasion by an English court, chairman Daniel Levy decided a change was necessary. "This is not a decision the board and I have taken lightly," Levy told the club's website in the early hours of the morning."Harry arrived at the club at a time when his experience and approach was exactly what was needed. "This decision in no way detracts from the excellent work Harry has done during his time with the club and I should like to thank him for his achievements and contribution."Redknapp's departure came a day after Roberto Di Matteo signed a two-year contract to be full-time manager of Chelsea. The position was the Italian's reward for winning the Champions League, a result that kicked Tottenham out of next year's tournament and may have contributed to the board's decision to sack Redknapp. New direction However, Redknapp said the club had simply wanted a change and qualifying for the Champions League would not have changed that. "We finished fourth and were unlucky at the end," he told Sky Sports television before heading off for a round of golf."But I think the same outcome would have happened. "I had four great years at Spurs. All you can do is leave the club in a better state than you found it and I did that, for sure." The 65-year-old said he would look for another job in soccer, declared himself "fit as a fiddle" and would not be sitting around moping.
"I had four great years at Spurs. All you can do is leave the club in a better state than you found it and I did that, forsure"
Harry Redknapp
Redknapp added the England speculation and contract negotiations were not the reasons for his departure. He was appointed manager in October 2008 after Juande Ramos was sacked with the club bottom of the league with two points from eight matches. Former West Ham United, Southampton and Portsmouth manager Redknapp resurrected their fortunes and took them to the League Cup final that season where they were beaten by Manchester United on penalties. Further success came the following year when he led them to the Champions League for the first time after a fourth-place Premier League finish and collected the manager of the year award. However, after being cleared for tax evasion in 2012, Spurs slumped in the Premier League while their manager was linked to the empty England role. The killer blow was delivered when Chelsea knocked their London rivals out of next year's Champions League with victory in the final against Bayern Munich. After the news broke, bookmakers installed Everton manager David Moyes and Wigan Athletic's Roberto Martinez as early favourites to replace Redknapp in a highly coveted role, especially as Levy is likely to provide significant financial backing. But with speculation swirling over the futures of gifted midfielders Luka Modric and Gareth Bale, the immediate concern of Spurs fans will be that nobody else follows Redknapp out of White Hart Lane.
