Offered online or on campus. Classroom Online Accelerated RN to MS in Nursing Degree: Education or Management Focus DegreeOverview ProgramRequirementsAccreditationTuitionHow toApply Degree Overview Set your sights on your ultimate goal, and advance quickly to the BSN and the MS in Nursing degree. This program allows students to complete three graduate level courses in the BSN portion of the curriculum which provides a head start in the Master of Science program. After completion of the BSN portion of the program, you will continue to complete classes for your master's degree in the same format as the BSN coursework. Within the master's portion of the program, you will complete graduate level nursing courses along with courses in a chosen focus area – education or management. The Education focus includes teaching and learning theory, curriculum development and evaluation. The Management focus entails course work in leadership development, financial management, current legal and economic requirements and industry trends. Both focus options include practicum experiences that total 210 hours providing you with an opportunity to apply theory in authentic health care management or education environments. Learn How Your Past Education Counts We're giving credit where credit is due! The Loretto Heights School of Nursing has approved a credit transfer policy aimed to ensure RNs with an associate's degree are given the maximum amount of credit possible. Here's how it works - if you graduated from a regionally accredited institution, completed an ADN program requiring a minimum of 72 semester hours, and have a current license, you're eligible for a lump sum transfer of at least 72 semester hours. If your ADN program consisted of more than 72 semester hours, additional credit may be awarded. This equates to fewer non-nursing courses, saving you even more time and money! Various core studies courses are not included in the block transfer policy. These courses include: three semester hours (SH) of philosophy; six SH of religious studies; three SH of statistics; three SH of upper division electives; and a minimum of eight SH of lower division electives. If you've already completed any of these courses, we'll review for transfer credit on a course-by-course basis. Applicants with an Associate's Degree in Nursing from a non-regionally accredited school, from programs that required less than 72 semester hours, and from diploma RN programs will be awarded 33 hours for RN licensure as guided by the Colorado Articulation Model. All previously completed non-nursing courses will be evaluated on a course-by-course basis. Degree Graduates are awarded a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) upon completion of the BSN portion of the program, and the Master of Science, Nursing with a focus in either education or management upon completion of the entire program. Online Option Flexible format allows you to log in anytime, day or night as you complete weekly assignments. Each class lasts 8 weeks allowing you to progress quickly. No campus visits are required for online students, but we encourage you to celebrate your graduation in person! Campus Blended Option Our campus based program blends classroom and online courses, which allows you great convenience, but also personal contact and guidance. Students typically alternate each week spending one week in class, and the next online. Classes typically meet one evening every-other-week from 5:00PM – 9:00PM, and online content can be completed at anytime that is convenient during the alternate week. The eight-week terms allow you to progress quickly toward your BSN while continuing to work. Start Dates Spring (January), Summer (May), Fall (August) Application Deadline Regis University's RN to M.S. in Nursing program has a rolling admission deadline; we accept applications up to the start date of the program. Course size is limited, so it is best to submit applications sooner than later. Length of Program The curriculum can be completed in approximately 24 - 36 months. Next Step Call us and we'll walk you through your next step to get started. Program Requirements The following list includes requirements for the RN to MS, Nursing program. The total degree requires 158-161 (depending on Education or Management Focus) semester hours which includes: Corequisites (many of which may have been completed in your prior RN schooling), 33 semester hours automatically awarded per your prior degree and RN license, RN to BSN major coursework, and the Master of Science Degree in Nursing requirements.

A statement of heritage – IND works on a BMW Individual F10 M5 in Imola Red, a classic BMW M exclusive color.
Hamann showcases its F10 M5 Mi5Sion at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, or what we think might be an M5
To say it's a radical looking kit for the M5 would be an understatement. The Mi5Sion M5 receives widebody fenders that have added 30mm on each side. It has custom front and rear bumpers, carbon fiber trunk spoiler, door handles, and rear diffuser.
The interior features a contrasting black-white theme, with Alpine White and black leather seats to match the exterior and white trims throughout to continue the theme.
Follow our full 2013 Geneva show coverage updates at BIMMERPOST.com
On Saturday, February 16, 2013, the M Owners Club of Indonesia (MOCI) held one of their most exciting meet events in Jakarta. The. event was originally scheduled for last month, but due to heavy rain and flooding in some areas in Jakarta.
This newly scheduled event was held as a charity event, with the donations and proceeds going to help the flood affected areas. The event was joined by other car clubs as well, with owners of Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Porsches, and other exotics in attendance and driving in the events.
M5POST member RPiM5 shares with us his direct experience after six months of F10 M5 ownership, compared to his time with the E60 M5 (his car prior to the F10 M5).
by RPiM5:
Best things about the E60 M5:
1. S85 V10 engine! (with aftermarket exhaust, there's almost no equal to the exhaust note. This is even more true if you do aftermarket headers!)
2. Smaller size of E60
3. Lighter weight of E60
4. SMG Transmission (Almost no other transmission can rattle the fillings out of your teeth like S6 mode can!)
5. Adjustable Side Bolsters
6. Active Side Bolsters
7. The option for comfort seats rather than just sport seats.
Worst things about the E60 M5:
1. S85 V10 engine! (reliability!!!)
2. Reliability of everything else … CONTINUED
Slek Design has released the first photos of their carbon fiber aero kit for the F10 M5, which includes a carbon fiber front lip spoiler/splitter, sideskirts (side diffuser) and rear diffuser.
BMW M CEO Friedrich Nitschke gave some insight into certain aspects of future M models when speaking recently to Autocar.
AWD vs RWD
While current non-SUV M models all remain RWD, as horsepower numbers climb for each successive generation of models, the question has arisen whether future models would benefit from AWD xDrive offerings, to help with traction and getting all that power down to the ground effectively; especially considering the AWD offerings from competitors – such as the E63/CLS63 AMG 4Matic and upcoming RS6/RS7 Quattro models.
To this, Nitschke reaffirms M's stance on RWD: "Our philosophy in regards to steering feel and precision is that rear-wheel drive is the best solution," … "xDrive brings an 80-90kg weight penalty and the M differential is the industry's best rear-drive … CONTINUED
Per iND provides an update on its F10 M5 project tuning car:
Development of IND's M5 continues, and in this week's update we find our M5 within the bowels of AMS; dyno room. Having logged over 20 hours on the dyno since the installation of a host of AMS-supplied testing and datalogging equipment, we've started to build a knowledge base that will help to make key decisions and allow us to take steps toward our ultimate power goal.
Our M5 was wired with a complete sensor package including:
intake air temperature sensors before and after the coolers
boost pressure sensor at the intake manifold
ambient temperature sensors
intercooler water temp pre and post intercooler
Here is a photo set of various BMW Individual M5, M550d and 5 Series seen at the BMW factory owned/run dealership in München, Germany.
The colors seen are Frozen Bronze Metallic, Frozen Blue Metallic, Azurite Black, and a Alpina B5 touring.
According to an Autocar source, Arnd Meyer, the head engineer responsible for chassis engineering of all recent AMG models, including the SLS AMG Black Series, has left Mercedes and joined BMW M.
The source says that Meyer will eventually head BMW M's chassis, powertrain and electronics development, although an AMG spokesperson has suggested that a contractual agreement (presumably, a non-compete clause in his employment contract) may prevent him from doing so for some period of time.
This news comes on the heels of this recent report that BMW M may be looking into offering models that compete with AMG Black Series models, in terms of exclusivity. Could BMW M's pickup of Meyer be related? We shall see…

Moover Toys Dump Truck is designed for children aged 8 - 48 month. The truck enables the child to drive and steer simultaneously – and it is Moover Toys' flagship within vehicles. Not least on account of its great design.Learning: Moover Toys Dump Truck helps the child explore and practice motor skills by turning and reversing the truck. Additionally, the child can use the truck to transport various things. When the child gets older, he or she gradually learns how to assemble and separate the Dump truck – thereby strengthening the construction and motor skills. Safety: Moover Toys' Dump Truck is designed with double tires, which gives an extra strong and non-skid grip on the driving surface. The truck's driving properties are sufficiently versatile as to give the child a fun experience while the speed isn't too fast. Assembly: Moover Toys are delivered in flat packs and can be assembled easily and quickly with Moover Toys' unique "click key system" - without the use of any tools. The assembly of Moover Toys' products is a joint, constructive experience for both children and grown-ups – later on, the children will be able to assemble the toys themselves.Age: 8 - 48 monthColour: Red with yellow wheelsProduct dimensions: Length: 44cmHeight: 42cm Width: 25cm

Some bar owners and representatives of the state hospitality industry -- which has staunchly opposed many restrictions to smoking -- are wringing their hands about the difficulties they face in implementing the new ban. Because the law covers enclosures, many smoking shelters built outside bars to accommodate smokers now will be prohibited.
The new ban also prohibits outdoor smoking within 20 feet of doors, windows or ventilation intakes, all measures intended to protect nonsmokers from exposure to harmful passive smoke. The law has essentially made smokers outcasts -- one of the goals of a ban, after all, is to encourage addicted smokers to quit a deadly habit, and dissuade others from ever starting.
So it's a very strong piece of initiated legislation to strengthen public health, more sweeping than anything the North Dakota Legislature, stubbornly backward on these issues, would have passed. Now the spokesman for the North Dakota Hospitality Association, which has fought smoking bans as if they were prohibitions of apple pie, is making anguished public comments about whether a definition of ''enclosure'' will include a chain-link fence, or whether bar owners will be required under the law to chase away patrons to keep them from smoking outside their premises.
At least in Fargo and Cass County, the answer clearly appears to be no. Enforcement will take a backseat to education, according to a local public health official. Complaints will drive enforcement, and when complaints are received, public health officials will work with the businesses to bring them into compliance. Common sense should prevail.
As the ''no smoking'' signs go up in new places all over the state, it's worth remembering that more than 800 adults die from smoking every year in North Dakota. Smoking is the state's top cause of preventable death. In the two years since South Dakota passed a statewide smoking ban, the number of hospitalizations for heart attacks decreased 6 percent, partly due to the smoking ban. That meant 98 fewer heart attacks, and a savings of
$4.2 million in health-care costs, according to a study by the South Dakota Association of Healthcare Organizations. North Dakota's new ban, as unpopular as it is for a vocal minority, will save money -- and lives.

Same problem here
I have the 2007 ACD 30" and no way at present to attach it to my new Mac Mini that arrived last night. I'm going to go to the Apple Store this afternoon to see if there is. MDP to Thunderbolt cable that will work or a MDP plug to HDMI adaptor. I've been told shouldn't be a problem. So far haven't seen the right connectors.

I currently have HDMI to HDMI which works fine, is there any benefit of going from Display Port to HDMI?
Better Quality? Better Refresh Rates? or Better Resolutions? I am guessing not but thought I would double check |

In case it helps anyone else
I am so relieved. It turns out that the Thunderbolt port on the new mini and probably many other Apple laptops, desktops etc. is the same size and works perfectly as the mini display port. I plugged (with a friends suggestion) the Mini Display plug into the Thunderbolt port and the ACD works very very well. I knew that Thunderbolt displays worked this way - but my 30" ACD is from 2007 and no where did anyone tell me to use the Thunderbolt port rather than wasting time trying to find an adaptor for the the HDMI port. So now I'm happy.
(Just saw that I have to change my signature ... my Mac Mini (2009) is now replaced by the 2012 mini. The iPad Mini WiFi + cellular is still processing.)

Game Clarifies Comparison Of "Jesus Piece" With Dr. Dre's "2001"
Game explains just how his new album "Jesus Piece" compares with Dr. Dre's "2001."
Earlier this month, Game compared his upcoming album Jesus Piece with one of Dr. Dre's releases. Recently, he was asked to clarify what he meant by those statements in an interview with Hot 97. In the interview, Game explained that he meant no disrespect to Dr. Dre.
"I said, 'It got monumental features like that album. Everybody you want to hear in Hip Hop is on the Jesus Piece album, but in the right place.' That was the comparison."
He went further to share his admiration for the Dr. Dre release.
"Chronic 2001 is a dope album, not to be misconstrued with something that ain't dope but Jesus Piece is nice."
In the interview, Game also said he was helping people in New York get to voting booths. He explained that he's given people money for transportation as well.
"California cares," he added.

New technology and aircraft designs are among AirVenture's stand-out characteristics and 2012 has brought several, including an all-new helicopter from the Land of the Long White Cloud.
Auroa Helicopters Ltd. has spent four years and the combined efforts of a 15-man team of design, engineering, manufacturing, and systems specialists in development of a new a turbine-powered, carbon-fiber-composite, two-seat helicopter with diverse mission potential - recreational, instructional, and personal flight, such as commuting.
The craft is manufactured to FAR 27 standards with full certification Auroa's goal.
Flight testing has been completed on three prototypes to date with the manufacturing process of the Auroa helicopter in full swing.
Auroa plans to offer the helicopter in a variety of formats.
It will be sold as fully assembled or kit in the experimental class in the U.S. In some other countries, however, the Auroa will be in some alternative categories.
The purchase price includes New Zealand-based basic gas turbine and maintenance training, plus transition training for certificated commercial and private pilots.
According to Auroa, interest at this AirVenture has been huge with 45 customers signed up so far.
A dealer network is in this moment being built up in a range of countries. All interested are invited to visit the company's stand, located in the New Zealand pavilion between the control tower and the main air show runway.
Some Auroa specifications: Empty weight: 660 pounds Maximum weight: 1,320 pounds Fuel: two-hour endurance Powerplant: 160-hp Solar T62 turboshaft with FADEC controller and data download for engine history Cockpit: Glass with VHF transceiver, transponder, ELT, and adjustable tail rotor pedals.

When Boy Scouts are presented with projects, they always try to help out the community in any way they can.
That's why Eagle Scout Dante Jupert, 15, decided to hold a drive for winter clothing.
He dropped them off today.
Coats, hats, gloves, and blankets all went to homeless kids in families living in emergency shelters.
"Just to help out all the kids that don't have clothing items and everything, so they can stay warm during the winter," said Jupert.
Total, the scout was able to help families with Posada by handing out 25 blankets and many more hats and gloves.

Sticking to a New Year's Resolution: It's a Marathon, Not a Sprint
Written on December 27, 2012 at 9:07 am , by Marianne Magno
With 2013 fast approaching, we're thinking about the ways we can make the new year a healthier one. Making a resolution is easy–it's the follow through that's tough. "Think of it as a marathon, not a sprint," says Susan Albers, Psy. D., author of Eating Mindfully. She's starting a Mindful Eating Marathon this year to help you make daily changes that will help you stick to your goals.
So how can you train for a healthier 2013? Here are Dr. Albers' top tips:
- Focus on the positive. Think about what you're already doing well and try to do it better. "If you want to lose weight and you're having a hard time with your diet, focus on what you find fun, like exercise classes," says Dr. Albers. Eventually the results from that will influence your other behaviors.
- Make daily challenges. Instead of having one big goal, make daily ones that focus on the actions you need to take. "Instead of saying you will lose weight, say 'I'll get on the bike for 30 minutes today.'" Easy enough, right?
- Get tools to make it fun. If your goal is to eat more fruit, buy kitchen tools like apple slicers and melon ballers. "If food is more attractive, you'll be more likely to eat them," she says. Use the new year as a reason to get new workout clothes if your goal is to get back to the gym.
- Invest time in getting ready. You take time to get ready for a holiday party, so why not take time to get ready to be healthy? Dr. Albers recommends setting aside time in your schedule to go grocery shopping and chopping up fruits and vegetables to make eating well a breeze.
Tell us: What are your tips to make New Year's resolutions more achievable?

[ 9/10 ]
Very nice place, and we will definitely camp here again. Located close to everything, yet it feels secluded. Friendly staff. Washrooms were a bit dated, but it looks like new once will be ready soon.
Watkins Glen, New York
W W Clute Memorial Park
[ 9/10 ]
If you are looking for a "State Park" feel, this is not the place for you. The RV area is a bit of a field, with a few young trees planted here and there. However, the non-camping part of the park makes up for this in spades! It is right on Lake Seneca, with a large clean waterfront, and great picnic areas. The park is fairly quiet, but centrally located. It is a 2 minute walk to WalMart, a 10 minute walk to town, and a 15 minute walk to Watkins Glen, which you MUST SEE! We stayed 3 nights and never needed a car. We were in site A9, at the back. All was good, except cable was fuzzy and Wi-Fi a little spotty. Definitely going back.

2006 Toyota Sequoia SR5
ProsGreat room and excellent handling. Fun and wasy to drive! ConsPoor gas mileage
I Still Live My Toyota Sequoia! — I love the space and the fact that I can see everything. I, like most Americans with big SUVs, hate the poor gas mileage. However, with three children and a dog, this truck gets the job done! I wouldn't trade it right now, especially since I am spoiled with driving a big vehicle. |
2006 Toyota Sequoia SR5
ProsBest seven passenger configuration other than Mini Van ConsAlways gets 15.7 MPG
Perfect Family Car — The Sequoia has the best access to the third row seats in it's class. We take this car with 3 kids to Florida and back, run errands, go to dinner as a couple or with another couple, tow our boat to the lake, run for groceries etc. The maintenance cost is ridiculously low. |

Hirsutism can sometimes be emotionally distressing. Some women feel self-conscious about having unwanted body hair. Also, although hirsutism doesn't cause physical complications, the underlying cause of a hormonal imbalance can.
If you have hirsutism and irregular periods, you may have a condition called polycystic ovary syndrome, which can inhibit fertility. Women who are taking certain medications to treat hirsutism should avoid pregnancy because of the risk of birth defects.

PARIS (Reuters) - Media group Lagardere
Titles for sale include popular Psychologies Magazine, Be and Premiere, and several home and decoration magazines, Lagardere Active said in a statement on Thursday.
If the titles did not find buyers, they would have to be closed and around 350 permanent jobs would be lost, according to an internal memo seen by Reuters. A union representative said more than 500 jobs were at risk.
Like many media groups, Lagardere Active has been hurt by a significant drop in circulation and advertising revenue in its print publications as it faces soaring competition from content available at little or no cost on the Internet.
Lagardere Active, which already sold its international magazine portfolio for around $900 million to U.S. publisher Hearst in 2011, said it aimed to focus on the digital development of its most powerful brands, including the French edition of Elle, Paris Match and Le Journal du Dimanche.
"My strategy is to focus our investments on around 10 titles which are leaders in their segment and where there is a strong potential to develop them online," Lagardere Active head Denis Olivennes said in an interview with Le Monde newspaper.
The restructuring will affect 350 permanent jobs, mostly staffers at the magazines being sold, he said. He added that the company preferred for the titles to be taken over by their individual teams and that he hoped employees would be retained.
But in a separate letter to staff, of which Reuters saw a copy, he said: "If - and this is not how we see things - we did not manage to sell some of these titles, we would have no other choice but to close them."
A labor union representative, who attended a meeting with management earlier in the day, said the figure of 500 jobs would be reached when freelancers were included.
"We're all pretty shocked. It adds up to a lot of people," SNJ union representative Christian Legueil told Reuters.
Lagardere shares were little changed at 25.47 euros by 1507 GMT. They are up about 46 percent this year, giving the company a market value of some 3.3 billion euros ($4.45 billion).
Lagardere said in August it expected advertising revenue to fall about 7 percent at Lagardere Active this year.
The magazine and radio division accounts for roughly a fifth of the group's revenue.
"Let's not bury our heads in the sand... the press is on the verge of heart failure and we must resort to shock therapy," Olivennes told Le Monde.

Hackers: heroes of the computer revolutionA mere fifteen years ago, "computer nerds" were seen as marginal weirdos, outsiders whose world would never resonate with the mainstream. That was before one pioneering work documented the underground computer revolution that was about to change our world forever. With groundbreaking profiles of Bill Gates, Steve Wozniak, MIT's Tech Model Railroad Club, and more, Steven Levy's Hackers brilliantly captured a seminal moment when the risk-takers and explorers were poised to conquer twentieth-century America's last great frontier. And in the Internet age, "the hacker ethic"--first espoused here--is alive and well. |

BP Comment Quick Links
September 13, 2013 Fantasy Fool's GoldShortstopsAs we continue our way around the infield (in as abstract a way as possible), we land on the most physically taxing position outside of catcher. This of course lessens the burden on the bat in basically every aspect, from contact to power to whatever else you may be looking for. What matters so much in real life, though—the ability to stay at shortstop—is so much less relevant to any prospective fantasy owner. While the offensive shortstop is a rare unicorn (quiet, Russell) indeed, even in the fantasy realm, prospectors don't care so much that they stay at the vaunted position as they do that the bat is real. Javier Baez could be a monster shortstop, but if he can hit and play third? Well, we'll gladly accept it. The list below includes players who either overstated their prospect status statistically or are likely to move off the shortstop position and in so doing, will significantly damage their prospect stock. As with the other iterations of this column, many of the observations below come from the BP Prospect Team. Marcus Semien, Chicago White Sox Over 105 games, the 22-year-old Semien put together a .290/.420/.483 slash line showing off his plate discipline while also displaying solid pop. His 17 percent BB rate helped him walk right into the hearts of statheads, especially when compared to a 14 percent strikeout rate. Semien's production wasn't the product of luck either, as his .317 BABIP was right in line with his career norms. Upon his promotion to Triple-A, we saw Semien add to his career high in home runs, ending the year with 19 between the two levels. He did suffer a drop in batting average; from .290 to .264, while also seeing his walk and strikeout rates go in the wrong direction. Don't take the Triple-A numbers too hard though, as the sample size is only 142 plate appearances. Despite the hit in the slash line numbers, Semien maintained a semblance of his power, as well as a 10 percent walk rate and a strikeout rate that was elevated, yet manageable. Semien's fantasy future is a bit clouded. The White Sox seem unwilling or unable to let go of Alexei Ramirez (an extremely high-quality defender) and/or Gordon Beckham (great name…? I guess?), leaving Semien without a place to play everyday. Evaluations on his capabilities, even if he was guaranteed a spot, range from utility man to bottom-end second division player. Despite the usefulness of his package in real life, the impact is lacking to make him someone to target in fantasy leagues.

Recipe by Chef Rick
"A simple Asian dish with a savory-sweet bite. If you don't have plum jam, you can use apricot preserves instead. Serve with baked squash and wild rice mix, if desired."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 (2.5 pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2/3 cup plum jam
1 1/2 teaspoons ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger root
1 1/4 teaspoons prepared horseradish (optional)
Delicious, moist, and couldn't be easier. The glaze flavors and proportions are just right.
The chicken came out incredibly juicy, though the lovely sauce did not penetrate the meat at all. I think this glaze would be pretty good on a pork loin, too. I may try that next time. Thanks for sharing!

This had a very nice flavor. I added a little garlic. I think it would be better if you rubbed a little oil on the skin before the baking, so the skin would crisp up a little, or do this on the grill, or use skinless meat -- as written the skin stays kind of squishy which we found unappealing personally. Any jam would probably work -- I used orange marmalade and served this with AR's "Sweet and Spicy Green Beans". Thanks for the recipe!
I was NOT in the mood to cook tonight, but this recipe looked so easy, that I had not excuse not to cook. I had to use apricot preserves instead of plum jam, but it was easy and delicious. I will definitely make this again - and I hope to find plum jam for next time. Hubby agreed - it's a keeper.
I would suggest marinating the chicken in the plum sauce mixture instead of merely brushing it on top, to really get the flavour into the meat. Wouldn't hurt to prick the skin or make a few light slashes across the chicken either.
I'm sorry but this dish just didn't work for us. I followed the recipe exactly as written, but the inside part of the chicken didn't get any flavor.

Rachel Jeantel, the state's star witness in the George Zimmerman murder trial, took the stand on Wednesdayand Thursday to testify to the conversation she had with Trayvon Martin shortly before his death. However, before she took to the stand, as The Smoking Gun details, a Twitter account reportedly belonging to Jeantel was scrubbed. The scrubbed tweets include mentions of the trial, Zimmerman's brother, and references to smoking and drinking.
Some of the scrubbed tweets are fairly standard, talking about thinks like school and hanging out with friends, but some of them say things like "The only thing I do is jus drink" and "Party time let get high."
And then there are tweets with direct references to the trial. The Smoking Gun claims that Jeantel tweeted, in reaction to the revelation that she lied to investigators when she said she missed Martin's funeral due to a hospitalization, "Jus got home n hear wat was going and I'm angry." There were also tweets that referred to Zimmerman's brother, Robert Zimmerman, Jr., in apparent reaction to controversial tweets he himself posted about the media treatment of Martin and his brother.
In an April 4 tweet, Jeantel recounted a tweet she had received from "J" asking her "did you see the bro talking shit bout u." Her tweet concluded, "oh really I have jackass lawyers on my ass kno "JR" want to up in ok."
The following day Jeantel tweeted, "JUST FOR 'JR'," and included a link to a Twitpic showing someone giving the camera the finger. The image was deleted last night.

Automakers, engineers tune out engine noise
Columbus, OhioDrivers will soon enjoy a much quieter ride as Ohio State University engineers help automakers cut whistle noise in the car engine's air intake and exhaust systems.
Ahmet Selamet, professor of mechanical engineering at Ohio State, designed a pipe adapter that fits into the engine's intake ductwork and helps engineers study whistles. In experiments, they reduced the sound of a whistle by as much as 30 decibels, so the noise was no longer audible inside the passenger compartment of a car.
Whistle noise has long been an issue for the auto industry, Selamet explained. A car's intake and exhaust system contains a large number of branched pipes. Air streaming through the pipes, combined with the acoustic resonance in these branched structures, leads to whistles.
"Pipes can generate sound just like a flute or other wind instruments," Selamet said. "Changing the length, diameter, or location of a branched pipe changes the frequency and amplitude of the sound. Unfortunately, the sound created by an engine is not nearly as pleasant as the one created by a flute."
The engineers designed a T-shaped aluminum pipe adapter that fits into the intake system of an engine and allows for fast and easy investigation of airflow resonance. Acoustic sensors and software help the engineers understand where and how the whistles form. They then use that information to redesign the pipe configuration and eliminate the noise.
Initially focused on the auto industry, the same technology may also quiet other air circulation systems, improve the accuracy of air flow measurements in general, and prevent vibration-related failures in many engineering applications, including gas pipelines.
Selamet calls his invention a "generic" pipe adapter because it diagnoses whistle noise in any commercial vehicle.
Straight sections of the adapter connect in line with the engine intake duct under investigation. The branch sticks out sideways, and the user lengthens or shortens the device easily by hand. The user can adjust the diameter of the branch as well. This allows engineers to readily examine how different pipe designs affect whistle noise.
Sometimes a small metal ramp is all that's needed to deflect the air inside a pipe and cancel out a whistle, Selamet said. He used the new adapter to investigate several ramp shapes and find out which ones work best in different situations.
With three shapes of a rampa flat steep slope, a flat shallow slope, and a V-shaped slopethe engineers performed experiments with their pipe adapter on an air intake system of a full-sized Ford engine.
The auto industry has used ramps for this purpose in the past, Selamet said, but this is the first time the company has used Ohio State's adapter to quickly find the ideal ramp shape for a particular application.
In Selamet's laboratory setup, air flowing past the engine's throttle plate mixed with another stream from a nearby duct. The air streams swirled into a vortex that created sound waves. The resulting whistle noise rose to 135 decibels, just above the threshold of pain for human ears.
Of the three ramps, the one with the flat, steep slope was most effective for silencing the whistle. It reduced noise levels to 105 decibels, comparable to the normal levels for an engine intake system in a passenger car.
The adapter can save automakers time and money. Whistles often crop up late in the design stage of cars, as engineers rearrange pipes for a number of reasons, Selamet said.
"One pipe gets longer, another gets shorter, location and diameters change. Sometimes the arrangement becomes just right to create a noise that is particularly annoying. Suddenly, the car isn't salable," Selamet said.
With so many pipes as the potential source of whistles, engineers can have a difficult time figuring out which pipe is to blame. They often resort to expensive trial and error, Selamet said. That's why his team is developing reliable strategies to understand the physics of whistles and diagnose and suppress them quickly.
"Our goal is to close the gap between laboratory experiments and the actual vehicle by laying down the basic principles that apply universally to any model of car," he said.
Natural gas lines suffer from whistles, too. But in their case, rather than an annoying sound, the associated vibrations may cause greater concern. Vibrations in gas pipelines can cause damage over time and eventually lead to failures of valves and other components.
