Classifications:Therapeutic— Antiarrhythmic, Group IB Chemical— Amino Amide Uses of This Medicine:Tocainide belongs to the group of medicines known as antiarrhythmics.

Do not double doses. Storage— Store the medicine in a closed container at room temperature, away from heat, moisture, and direct light. Keep from freezing. Keep out of the reach of children. Do not keep outdated medicine or medicine no longer needed.

What are commodity investments?
Commodities are physical assets such as precious or base metals, energy products, agricultural products, livestock and other raw materials. People typically invest in commodities by buying and selling shares of commodity-producing companies or by trading commodity futures or derivative contracts.
Low correlation helps diversification. Many commodities are not highly correlated with stock and bond investments, meaning those commodity prices historically tend to move in different directions from these more traditional investments. Therefore, commodity investments can offer diversification benefits and help to insulate your overall portfolio from volatility in stocks and bonds.
What factors can influence commodity investment values? Unlike many stocks and bonds, commodities do not provide a future cash flow stream. This makes it difficult to determine a standard present value. For many commodities, simple supply and demand can dictate day-to-day pricing. However, commodities with perceived strategic value, such as gold and oil, can be subject to psychological factors and geopolitical or macroeconomic concerns. For example:
How have commodity investments performed over time? The chart above also shows that commodity performance has been inconsistent over the past four decades. We've already demonstrated how historical context can influence commodity prices. Some additional points worth noting:
Under certain economic conditions, commodities can offer opportunities to manage risk through diversification. They can be used as at least a temporary hedge against inflation, which many investors and economists are expecting to see rise in 2011 and 2012. However, there are many factors to consider. You should consult your Baird Financial Advisor about your specific situation and goals, and discuss the potential role that commodities could play in your portfolio.

Discussion on KidAkira's Finished ROTJ BM Armor within the Boba Fett Costume forum, part of the Star Wars Original Trilogy Bounty Hunters category; Here's all the green parts of the armor. Everything here
Very nice paint job and weathering. Well done.
Great job! It looks like you've got all the signature damage and scratches done.
all of your stuff looks great. excellent work!
that looks awsome! I hope I can weather mine as good as you have done to yours. Great job!
What color did you use for the scratch marks seen here?
And I was wondering, has any one ever put out a tutorial with the steps for doing a ROTJ version of armor. I am at a point where I know what needs to be done now, just not sure in which order.
That's a very nice paint job, the weathering really finishes the pieces off nicely.
FTLOF, The colour i used for those scratch marks was Tamyia spray paint Olive Green (AS14). I used the layer technique so in order it would have been the silver (mask areas) Yellow (mask areas) Tamyia Olive green AS14 (this colour was only sprayed locally in the required areas - mask areas) Dark green, then weather. Hope that helps ya!
Daz, Thanks for the compliments! I'm glad I could do justice to your excellent armour. Again, a pleasure to paint!
Looks great KidAkira!
Nicely done.
Really great paint job! looks sweet.....
not really a tutorial, but i've documented my buildup here:
i noticed that i didn't put the colors on the armor page, but i can update that easily enough.
Beautiful armor!
Nice paint job. I know it's the part that doesn't get shown but I particularly like the look of that backplate
Great job on the paintwork!
Stay safe,
Lost for words, Nice.

Big weekend for Miami recruiting

11:09 AM ET 01.19 | It's a huge recruiting weekend for Miami, which is welcoming four of its top targets for official visits, as well as six of its oral commitments. Uncommitted players scheduled to visit include defensive tackles Jaynard Bostwick and Keith Bryant, running back Alex Collins and offensive tackle Denver Kirkland. Rivals.com ranks Bryant as the nation's No. 17 d-tackle prospect, and Bostwick 27th. UM badly needs at least one of those two, considering it doesn't have any commitments from any defensive tackles, its biggest area of need. Bostwick, from West Centennial High in Port St. Lucie, is considering Miami, Alabama and UF and could commit if the visit goes well.
yea, a big weekend and our OC jedd fisch bolted to the be the jags OC.. can never trust a **** gator
Awesome, this Weekend is Big an Golden WILL get MATHEW THOMAS,GRACE on Tuesday an then RB-COLLINS since WISC.'s HC left plus THUFSU has plenty of RB's while this kid could Start Behind THE DUKE next Season & Hopefully BRYANT decides to come back over to the GOLDEN side cause he'd play next Season to.
I know alot of these guys arnt at MIAMI this Weekend but still they should come back since they'll have a Great chance to play early an ALOT.
True SVT its SUCKS that GOLDEN Bolted for the JAG's but u cant really blame him for having the chance to become the OC of a NFL Team which hurts wth Collins an a Few other but not our Defensive Players which was the biggest need. An SOPH C.C.TE-BEAU SANDLAND already SIGNED an he should have a Great Chance to Start next Yr at TE despite Whats his Face playing well towards the end of the Yr. What does MARIO CHRISTABOL Coach since he Rejoined the CANES? Ill nver call them THEU since when that happened the Program started to take a Dive but thats more because of Lame Duck Head Coaches.
NO MATTER what happens with this COMPLEX BS NCAA Investigation,ALMOST All Teams do Shady Stuff to Obtain Recruits,it makes u think what other SEC/ACC/PAC-12 Schools have done to Pick up some of MIAMI/FL Prospects AN DONT SAY THEY WIN. A 2 Yr Bowl Game Ban by the School an the ACC TITLE Game this Season which im still split on depending on what Sanctions are Handed Down & GOLDEN instituting a Scholi Reduction this Yr despite the Fact we had so many Young Guys play this Yr it wont hurt to much.(IT SHOULDNT B More Than a 2 or 3 GAME BOWL BAN,Loss Of 10-15 "Scholi's" for 2-3 Yrs plus Probation),though im torn since I think MIAMI shouldve played in the ACC TITLE GAME.
All because a Rat Faced Mini Bernie Madoff didnt c any of the NFL Players come to his "Rescue" as Character Witnesses which wouldn't have helped one bit. U bilked people for almost a BILLION Bro, Nobody could've helped u except PRES.OBAMA so u played your last Card that didnt get u anything but attention u friggin Jock Sniffer as Jimmy Johnson called u.
Are they all meeting up on Shapiro's yacht? Nev's bringing the strawberries and coke.

What does MARIO CHRISTABOL Coach since he Rejoined the CANES?
mario is the TE coach, brennan carroll moves to WR coach
So how many times an howmany Players have been Arrested or Kicked of THUGFSU or FL? James Wilder Jr. 3 Arrests in 6 Monthes an missing his Court Date what a Class Act,while Florida Gator Players seem to get into Trouble in Groups. MIAMI Had 1 Kid get ARRESTED an kicked off the Team this OffSeason in CB-THOMAS FINNIE an LB-BUCHANON had some BS come up last Yr that was Dismissed but still played & is now a 3rd Rd Pick to 4th. An at least MIAMI doesnt OVERSIGN an Screw Kids over like the SEC does,Check that we did it once to get SEATRAL HENDERSON which was worth it since he was the #1 Player in the Country & is in Line for a MONSTER YR.
An if even a Quarter of what Shapiro said is True what did GEORGIA,BAMA,LSU an FLORIDA have to do to steal playrs away? Besides if take the word of a Rat Faced Mini Bernie Madoff who stole over $900 Million from his Shareholders than your as dumb as the NCAA. 2 Yr Bowl Ban, Loss of 10 "SCHOLI's" for 2-3 Yrs & Probation. MIAMI makes to much $ for the surrounding area an creates Jobs,they'll Nvr PENN ST. them or SMU the Program.

User Review: Sawyer Squeeze Filter
Source: bought it new
Price Paid: 59.95 US
This filter works very well for 1 or 2 hikers, is incredibly light, and reasonably priced. At 3.5 oz you can't beat the weight.
To operate this filter you must fill the water container, attach the filter, and, as the product title implies squeeze. Operation is simple, and the process only requires seconds. You can drink directly from the outflow end of the filter. I would not recommend this as there is too much opportunity for cross contamination. If you squeeze in a second clean bottle or bag you will be safe from this sort of contamination risk.
The Squeeze filter uses a hollow tube technology that has been tested using EPA protocols to 0.1 microns and will remove bacteria, protozoa, and cysts including giardia and cryptosporidium. This is generally sufficient for back country use in the Continental US, Canada, and the UK. I use it with confidence on all of my trips in the US.
As with most filtration systems it will not remove or disable viruses which are considerably smaller in size. If the presence of these viruses is probable then additional treatment will be needed. I also carry a Steripen in situations where there is a distinct possibility of water being contaminated with with viruses. Even adding a Steripen the total weight for my treatment system is less than half a pound, and requires only seconds more for complete treatment of water.
Here are some suggestions. When filtering fairly clear water use the Sawyer squeeze filter alone. If, on the other hand, the water is turbid with heavy particulates (muddy water) use a pre-filter. This will prevent the particles from clogging the filter tubes, making operation difficult or impossible. Just take along a coffee filter and used patches of that to cover the intake port for example.
Also, after every trip, remember to back flush. This will remove any particulates that do get into the filter tubes and could impair function the next time you use it. Also, there is no cap on the intake end of the filter. Because of this, if you use the filter and put it back in your bag water trapped in the filtration tubes will seep out and make things in the immediate vicinity damp. I made a simple plug from a small silicon suction cup that prevent this leakage.
Another one more thing, it can be difficult getting water into the "dirty" bag. If this proves too much of a challenge simply take an empty plastic soda bottle. Make sure the threads match, but they should on most pop bottle. The bottle is light, can be squeezed, and will probably capture water easier than the supplied Sawyer bag. There is an issue though, the soda bottle, although light, will not roll up to the compact size of the Sawyer bag.
Since I've only used it three times I am not sure how long it will last, but I can say at this point it is doing very well with no signs of damage and is functioning as well as when I purchased it. This particular model (the Squeeze) is fairly new and was made specifically for people who wanted a very light filtration system.
As is true with many light weight solutions there are minor annoyances (pointed out above), but for me, the positive features far outweigh these issues.

Eva Rothschild has developed a varied but instantly recognisable sculptural vocabulary. This includes woven coils, lumpen masses, totems, leather fringing and slender rods of painted wood and metal. Whilst her work is clearly informed by the legacy of minimal 1960s sculpture and slick geometric forms fabricated through industrial processes, at the same time it is indebted to homespun techniques and traditional crafts. Often brightly coloured, the results occupy an entire gallery space, using every available surface her work seems to defy gravitational and material limitations, perching on spindly stands on the floor, jutting out from the ceiling, arching precariously overhead or appearing to hover magically in mid-air. Though each sculpture is treated by Rothschild as distinct and individual, together they often appear like a stage-set, an overall installation suggesting each work has a significant part within an unfolding narrative, waiting to be animated by the viewer. Rothschild's recent exhibitions include the Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas; The Hepworth Wakefield; Kunstverein Hannover; Cold Corners at Tate Britain; South London Gallery and Kunsthalle Zurich. Her work is also in major collections around the world such as the Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh; Irish Museum of Modern Art, Dublin and Tate, London. Two recent works are sited in the Sculpture Park at Roche Court.
Clare Woods is renowned for her depictions of the English landscape which evoke the Neo-Romantic traditions of mid-twentieth-century artists such as Sutherland, Nash and Piper; the dark side of the landscape she portrays, shaped and scarred by human activity, creates a sense of unease and disquiet offset by her painting's glossy, colourful surfaces. Recently, however, her work has changed. Woods is now using oil, instead of enamel paint, giving her work a greater luminosity and subtlety of tone and texture, and she has also begun to concern herself with different kinds of subject matter. The human presence is now more defined, a turning point which came at the time of her exhibition at The Hepworth Wakefield, in which the Yorkshire landscape of Moore and Hepworth looked like faces and figures. This departure is entirely logical since Woods first studied sculpture and her means of painting has always relied upon using paint structurally and in layers. The exhibition at Roche Court includes her more familiar landscapes alongside recent portrayals of figurative sculptures by Paolozzi, Bourgeois and Giacometti. Clare Woods' most recent exhibitions include Southampton City Art Gallery; The Hepworth Wakefield and Chisenhale Gallery, London. In 2012 she also completed a permanent outdoor commission for the Olympic Park, London. Her work is in major collections including Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo; Arken Museum of Modern Art, Denmark; VAC, Valencia; National Collection, Wales; Arts Council; British Council and Government Art Collection.

I'm glad I upgraded to WP8. But it's always the little things that change the user experience from just OK to great. I've noticed a few things that are no longer present in WP8 that were on WP7, unless somebody can correct me. Can anyone spot if there are any more?
- Custom Regional Settings - I used to be able to manually edit the short date, first day of the week etc and now I can't.
- Map settings (HTC 8x) - I can no longer change the orientation between 'Always orientate north' and 'Rotates with my current direction.'
- Camera - Quick share account is no longer included, so to share to Facebook or Twitter is an additional click and scroll.
- FM Radio - the hardware is no longer included in WP which is a shame. It's too easy to say "oh use Wifi or carrier data". Wifi is not always an option and so too with carrier data which costs money and has caps. The FM signal works practically everywhere and is totally free, why limit people?
- Theme picker - this one is more of a preference really but am I the only one to actually prefer the names next to the accents?
Even though you still got much much more features with WP8 !! am I right ?!
You can get the Bing Maps back through the link below. Driving directions have been reassigned to Nokia Drive, which is a massive improvement since you don't need to take your hands off the wheel to tap the screen.

The beautiful, smooth, perfect-in-the-hand aluminum case of the HTC Radar. I'm not a huge fan of "polycarbonate," even the textured stuff HTC uses in the 8X.
Actually the antennas/chipset inside WP8 phones do support fm radio I read on these forums recently we just need to wait for it to be unlocked, if it is.

Every 14.4 seconds someone's home is broken into in America. You are probably wondering, with that many burglaries every year, what are the chances someone will break into your home. Your chances, right now, of being broken into are about 1 in 143, based on FBI crime data. A security system, such as those monitored by ADT, could make your chances closer to 1 in 429. Studies show home alarm systems can make your home up to 3 times less likely3 to be broken into.

For this New Sounds, we'll experience the various manipulations of the voice. From Alvin Lucier's wonder, "I am Sitting in a Room," to the Frances-Marie Uitti & Paul Griffiths collaboration "There is Still Time," we'll listen to composers who start with a voice or text and end up producing something radically different from the original.
Alvin Lucier's 1969 piece "I Am Sitting In A Room," actually uses a room's natural resonance to produce the music over time as the initial utterance decays. Then, Paul Griffiths's reading of the words he cobbled together from Ophelia's text in Hamlet are set to music by cellist Frances-Marie Uitti. There's also a work by Carl Stone that was based on a Mozart opera, and something from Paul De Marinis based on a record of the French language.

A Titans offensive line that is one of the best in the league at pass protection should get a significant test this week against Houston. The Texans have recorded nine sacks in three games, led by defensive end J.J. Watt, who has already posted an AFC-best 5.5 sacks. Watt has registered more than one sack in each of the Texans' three regular-season contests this year. The Titans' offensive line, which has allowed just two sacks this year, is hoping for another performance like last Sunday's. Tennessee attempted 42 passes, but didn't surrender a sack. Jake Locker was only hit once during a pass attempt. "That was something that went unnoticed, untalked about," Munchak said. "That was a good defensive line … (Locker) was not sacked, not harassed and he threw for almost 400 yards. "That's a heck of an accomplishment for them, but protection is not just the offensive line. Protection has a lot to do with the receivers getting open, the quarterback getting the ball out, the tight ends and backs, just like the run game." Source: Titans Insider
Well on the bright side, we don't have to worry about Mario anymore! But honestly I think we had such good pass protection because we called up some faster routes. Less double moves, more slants kinda thing because that OL looked like a bunch of lil girls out there trying to pass block during the Chargers game.
If CJ continues to struggle, look for MORE quick throws to supplement the run game. We may have thrown 42 times last week, but much of those were screens to Wright. I'm not sold on our pass blocking being so great.
This is my guess & early on you guys will probably have a little success with that..until wade shortens up his zone to take those away. & when that happens Locker will either to force it (int) or he'll have to hold onto it a little longer waiting for longer routes to develop........and that's likely where we'll get our sacks. I've been watching CJ this year...he'll be a non-factor.
watch him get 200 yards rushing on sunday... and watch for cows flying over the stadium during halftime
i've lurked on this board long enough to know that there are still at least a few on this board who think this guy is about to bust out of his slump any game now....of course, a game for him to "bust out of his slump" could simply be a game where he totals more than 25 yds rushing for the game, lol.
Once again Houston will prove that the 3-4 scheme is far superior to the 4-3 we run, and run poorly. It's not about the chess pieces, it's about how you use them. Creating confusion is how you beat an offensive line and that is exactly what the Texans will be doing to us on Sunday. Remember they went from, statistically, the 2nd worse defense in yards allowed in NFL history, to the best defense in the league the following year, how? They switched to the 3-4 and brought in a coach who really understands it. This is my long way of saying they are going to create confusion with our O-line with alignment and blitzes, they will win the battle of the trenches sadly. I just hope our coaches will see the error of their ways, but I doubt it.
I would consider 25 yards, and over 1.5 yards per carry to be a decent game for CJ. 50 yards and over 2.0 would be outstanding.
3/4 of CJ's most recent games against the Texans have been brutal. 56 carries, 214 yards (3.8 YPC), 1 TD in his last four games against them. If you take away one of those games, he's sitting at 32 carries, 84 yards (2.6 YPC), 0 TDs. Remember that 20-0 game when he had 7 carries for 5 yards? That's what I'm expecting this game.

Marquette University strives to provide an educational environment which reflects its Catholic, Jesuit mission and heritage and which preserves the safety and dignity of each member of its community. The university prohibits all forms of sexual violence, coercion, intimidation and harassment. The university does not permit any form of sexual misconduct, including, but not limited to, sexual assault and interpersonal violence. This policy has dual purposes. It serves as a measure for the university to determine, after the fact, if behaviors trespass on community values. It also should serve to prevent sexual misconduct by providing a guide to the university's expectations relative to sexual responsibility and sexual respect within the Marquette community.
When an allegation of sexual misconduct is reported to the university and a violation of this policy is found, the university will take prompt corrective action and impose appropriate sanctions so that the learning and employment opportunities of students, employees and faculty members are not further affected by sexual misconduct. The university complies with federal, state and local laws, including the reporting of all crimes to law enforcement authorities.
Marquette University further recognizes the importance of responding to victims of sexual assault by providing access to services and resources in the areas of advocacy, medical care, legal/conduct concerns and counseling/emotional support. Care for and consideration of the victim's wishes and needs will be used to guide Marquette's response throughout the process.
The Marquette University Code of Student Conduct and Employee Rules of Conduct prohibit all forms of sexual violence, coercion, or harassment against individuals, whether perpetrated by a stranger or acquaintance, whether occurring on or off campus, and whether directed against a member of the Marquette University community or someone outside the university community. Prohibited conduct ranges from acts clearly identifiable as sexual assault to sexual misconduct that includes such acts as stalking, voyeurism, exposure, sexually harassing communication and sexual activity in a context of emotional coercion. Where there is reasonable cause to believe that a student member of the university community has violated the Marquette University Code of Student Conduct, the university will take action in accordance with the policies and procedures outlined in the Student Handbook. Where there is reasonable cause to believe that a university employee or faculty member has violated the Employee Rules of Conduct, the university will take action in accordance with the policies and procedures outlined in the Employee Handbook. University action may be taken whether or not criminal charges are filed and without regard to whether the conduct occurred on or off the Marquette University campus.
Any member of the university community found responsible for violating the sexual misconduct policy is subject to action up to and including dismissal from Marquette University. The standard used to determine accountability is a preponderance of the evidence, in other words, whether it is "more likely than not" that the respondent has violated the policy.
Sexual misconduct offenses prohibited by this policy include, but are not limited to, the following:
1. Non-Consensual Sexual Intercourse (or attempts to commit)
2. Non-Consensual Sexual Contact (or attempts to commit)
3. Sexual Exploitation
4. Sexual Harassment.
Marquette University does not presume a student, employee, or faculty member is in violation of university policy. A conduct hearing or investigation will be held to take into account the totality of information available, from all relevant sources. The university will determine whether the Student Conduct Code or the Employee Rules of Conduct have been violated.
Complainant refers to the individual who reported the incident of alleged sexual misconduct.
Respondent refers to the student, employee, or faculty member who allegedly violated the sexual misconduct policy and/or has been charged with a violation of the policy.
A central concept to understanding the offenses that constitute sexual misconduct under this policy is consent.
Consent is the equal approval, given freely, willingly and knowingly of each participant to desired sexual involvement. Consent is an affirmative, conscious decision - indicated clearly by words or actions – to engage in mutually accepted sexual contact. A person compelled to engage in sexual contact by force, threat of force, or coercion has not consented to contact. Lack of mutual consent is the crucial factor in any sexual assault. Consent CANNOT be given if a person's ability to resist or consent is impaired because of a mental or physical condition or is there is incapacitation due to drugs or alcohol or if there is a significant age or perceived power differential. Providing alcohol or drugs to facilitate sexual activity is a violation of this policy. Use of alcohol or other drugs will never function to excuse behavior that violates this policy.
A person may not consent if s/he is:
• unconscious
• frightened
• physically or psychologically pressured or forced
• intimidated
• impaired because of a psychological condition
• intoxicated by use of drugs or alcohol
Consent to one form of sexual activity does not imply consent to other forms of sexual activity. Similarly, previous relationships or consent does not imply consent to future sexual activity.
The requirements of this policy apply regardless of the sexual orientation of individuals engaging in sexual activity.
Sexual misconduct includes, but is not limited to, conduct prohibited at Wisconsin Statutes. 940.225
(See: legis.wisconsin.gov/lrb/pubs/ib/01ib1.pdf.)
The State of Wisconsin Statutes referenced above provide a comprehensive list of the behaviors that are considered non-consensual sexual intercourse.
The State of Wisconsin Statutes referenced above provide a comprehensive list of the behaviors that are considered non-consensual sexual contact.
Sexual exploitation as defined by this policy occurs when an individual takes non-consensual or abusive sexual advantage of another individual for his/her own advantage or benefit, or to benefit or advantage anyone other than the person being exploited. Examples of sexual exploitation may include, but are not limited to:
• prostituting another individual;
• recording, displaying or distributing in any way photos, video or audio of a person engaged in sexually explicit conduct without the consent of that individual;
• engaging in "Peeping Tommery," or viewing other persons engaged in intimate behavior without their consent;
• knowingly transmitting a sexually transmitted disease.
Sexual harassment is defined as any unwelcome sexual advances, demands, requests for sexual favors, innuendoes or any other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature when:
(1) Submission to such conduct is made either explicitly or implicitly a term or condition of an individual's educational or residential experience or employment; or (2) Submission to or rejection of such conduct by an individual is used as the basis for educational, residential or employment decisions affecting such individual; or (3) Such conduct is sufficiently severe and pervasive so as to alter the conditions of, or have the purpose or effect of substantially interfering with, an individual's academic performance or work by creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive educational, residential, or working environment.
All students, employees and faculty members are encouraged to report violations of this policy to the university. A student, employee, or faculty member who believes s/he or any student, employee, or faculty member is a victim of sexual misconduct is encouraged to promptly report the incident to the Department of Public Safety, Residence Hall Staff, the Office of Student Development, Student Health Services, or the Department of Human Resources. Students, employees and faculty members may also consider a direct report to the Milwaukee Police Department or contact the Aurora Sinai Medical Center's Sexual Assault Treatment Center.
Marquette University reserves the right to take whatever measures it deems necessary in response to an allegation of sexual misconduct in order to protect individuals' rights and personal safety. Such measures include, but are not limited to, modification of living arrangements, and interim suspension from campus pending a hearing or investigation. If a complainant requests a change in academic or living arrangements, options will be discussed and all reasonable efforts will be made to accommodate the request.
The complainant will be informed of the various support services available through the university, including counseling and medical assistance. In instances of non-consensual intercourse or contact (e.g., sexual assault, rape), a Student Health Service advocate may be called. Advocates provide free support and information about medical options and procedures, including evidence collection, and assistance with reporting and referrals. The complainant can choose to use or refuse advocacy services.
All complaints are taken seriously and a student, employee, or faculty member making a good faith complaint of sexual misconduct, including third parties, will not suffer retaliation or be subject to action by the university. For example, a student bringing forth a good faith complaint of sexual misconduct where alcohol is involved will not be charged with an alcohol violation. Complaints of sexual misconduct will be treated in confidence to the extent feasible, given the need to conduct a thorough investigation and take corrective action, in compliance with state statutes. Investigations and hearings will be in accord with the student conduct procedures (see: marquette.edu/osd/policies/conduct/hearing_procedures.shtml). Investigations in which the respondent is an employee or faculty member will be in accord with the procedures set forth in the Employee Handbook (see: marquette.edu/hr/documents/employee-handbook.pdf).
Not all forms of sexual misconduct will be deemed to be equally serious offenses, and the university reserves the right to impose differing sanctions, ranging from written warning to suspension or expulsion, depending on the severity of the offense. The university will consider the concerns and rights of both the complainant and the respondent.
Students, employees and faculty members can anticipate that:
1. Complainants and respondents will be treated with dignity and respect and in a non-judgmental manner. Reports will be addressed as promptly and completely as feasible.
2. All students, employees and faculty members are encouraged to promptly report all violations of this policy. All reports of sexual misconduct will be treated seriously regardless of the nature of the incident and the identity of the students involved.
3. Campus and community organizations and services that can assist students, employees and faculty members will be identified.
4. A university Stay Away Directive may be filed, to ensure that the parties in the matter are not in contact with one another.
5. Complainants and respondents will be afforded the opportunity to request immediate on-campus housing relocation, transfer of classes, or other steps to prevent unnecessary or unwanted contact or proximity to an respondent when reasonably available.
6. All students, employees and faculty members have the right to an environment free from sexual or physical intimidation, or any continuing disruptive behavior, by persons sharing rooms or work spaces or their guests, that would prevent a reasonable person from attaining his/her educational or workplace goals. Disruptive behavior of this nature should be reported to appropriate university staff so it can be addressed.
7. Students, employees and faculty members (both complainants and respondents) may invite an advisor of their choice to accompany them through university conduct proceedings or investigations. See the Marquette Student Conduct Code (page 48) or the Employee Handbook regarding the specific role of advisors throughout this process.
8. Students, employees and faculty members are entitled to know all evidence and testimony being utilized in decision-making.
9. The sexual history of the complainant is not relevant to the truth of the allegation; therefore, information regarding the complainant's sexual history other than the relationship between the complainant and the respondent will not be considered in conduct hearings or investigations.
10. Complainants and respondents will be notified in writing of the outcome of related university investigations or conduct proceedings. The complainant and the respondent must respect the privacy of all involved. Both the complainant and respondent will be informed of his/her respective right to appeal the university decision. Requests for appeals must be submitted in writing to the Office of Student Development (if a student) or the Department of Human Resources (if an employee or faculty member) within five business days from the date of the letter notifying the respondent of the original decision. Failure to appeal within the allotted time will render the original decision final and conclusive. The imposition of sanctions will normally be deferred during the pendency of appellate proceedings, at the discretion of the Dean of Students or the Affirmative Action Officer.
If you believe that you or another student has been a victim of sexual misconduct, the following resources are also available:
Additionally, the Marquette Medical Clinic and the Counseling Center, periodically and upon request, offer educational programs to promote awareness of sexual misconduct.

On the other hand, the Bruins are in the real Final Four, and your team probably isn't.Sayonara J.J.

<ART>Friday, March 31Big Bone Art Show You've been good for most of the week, and to show their appreciation, The Oddity Studios are throwing you a "Big Bone." As part of the F.A.T. Friday festivities, the Big Bone Art Show will feature original artwork in all mediums. Fifteen artists are on board so far, and you'll get a kick out of works like "The Dawn of Bone" by Bryan Renfro. Live music accompanies the artistic pleasantries, and each visitor receives a free copy of "The Herald Sparrow," a new publication with joyously offbeat sensibilities. Enjoy looking at artwork you can't afford (yet) and dream big. If your imagination needs some encouragement, the trolley hop wine is a nice starting point. —Matt MattinglyNancy's Bagel Grounds 2101 Frankfort Ave.599-6576Free; 6-9 p.m.
Ben Wright's art has something to say

November was a busy month for local immigrant advocates. With immigration reform stalled in the House of Representatives and unlikely to pass before the end of the year, frustrations have boiled over across the country.
Five years ago, the Department of Homeland Security established a program that forwards local arrest records to a national immigration database. If an individual is suspected of being in the country unlawfully, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or "ICE", may ask local law enforcement to hold the individual until officials can investigate his or her immigration status. These requests are known as ICE holds.
Originally published on Tue February 5, 2013 5:36 pm
The AFL-CIO begins a big push this week to build momentum for comprehensive changes to the nation's immigration laws.
But it wasn't long ago that organized labor viewed illegal workers in the U.S. as a threat — and fought against proposals that would lead to citizenship.
Richard Trumka, president of the AFL-CIO, referenced the labor movement's history with the immigration issue in a YouTube message to members late last year.
More than 150 evangelical leaders, from across the political spectrum, have come together to call for immigration reform. Host Michel Martin looks at the crusade for reform with Richard Land of the Southern Baptist Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission, and Rev. Samuel Rodriguez of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference.
Immigration advocates in New Orleans say the Supreme Court's ruling this week on immigration policy will lead to racial profiling. The Congress of Day Laborers is reaching out to minority leaders for support.
Republican presidential hopeful Newt Gingrich told Hispanic supporters in Louisiana that his immigration reform plan would focus on securing borders. Gingrich also agreed with rival Mitt Romney on repealing President Obama's health care system.

The "Sylvester" incident + the wardrobe man runs into a surprise…
Video Rating: 4 / 5
The "Sylvester" incident + the wardrobe man runs into a surprise…
Video Rating: 4 / 5
Is it just me, or did the audience sound surprised when Tomarken said the answer was Daffy Duck?
in a roundabout way, this can sort of give us some kind of scale as to just how huge that board was…
The second round intro gave us a great look at the board up close. You can get a true look at just how big that board was. Peter was a pretty tall guy, and he only reaches "Luck."
Ha ha! Sylvester's Wife can be seen in "A Mouse Divided" 3:02
Actually, both Daffy and Sylvester have said the same catchphrase. I'm not sure who said it 1st. I just have heard Sylvester say it the most.
@xanafanadu Yes that is he. RIP – Mel Blanc.
"Whammy! Whammy!" It must have been one of the cameramen inside the board in the black holes in the logo. That thing is massive!
Mel Blanc is one of the few people who can truly be labeled as "The man of 1000 voices"
RIP MEL BLANC… Cartoons are not the same without you…. It is INDEED Mel Blanc…
Best show ever. If you hate this, you don't deserve the ability to see, hear, or even talk.
This aired one the same day as the emontional finale of Family Feud (Dawson), June 14, 1985.
I don't know if there will ever be a "Best of PYL" DVD set, but if so, this episode deserves to be on it!!!
Sorry, posted this comment during the middle of the video.
Did PYL remedy the situation to the contestants when they erred on the question?
If you ask me the question should've been: "You may have heard Sylvester the Cat utter the phrase, 'Sufferin' Succotash!' in the Looney Tunes cartoon series. But Sylvester's not the only one. Which other Looney Tunes character has ALSO been known for saying 'Sufferin' Succotash!'?"

Do you think they would be creating as many life saving drugs if they were doing it to break even? I just don't think that is the way things work. That may make them greedy and inhumane, but it also makes them human.

2TB Samsung EcoGreen F4 HD204UI 3.5" Internal Hard Drive $99.99 with free shipping
Newegg.com has 2TB Samsung Ecogreen F4 3.5" SATA Internal Hard Drive (HD204UI) on Sale for $119.99 - an additional $20 w/ promo code EMCYTZT1557 = $99.99. Shipping is free. Thanks yuugotserved
Price Research: Our research has shown that this 2TB Samsung Ecogreen F4 3.5" SATA Internal Hard Drive is $63 lower (39% savings) than the next best available price from a reputable merchant shipped, with prices ranging from $163 and up - brisar |
I ordered one of these Monday since a HDD in my NAS died. Too bad NewEgg doesn't price match itself - I paid $120.
Anyway, it came branded as: Samsung Model ST2000DL004 HDD P/N HD204UI In small letters at the top of the label it does say http://www.seagate.com and "Barracuda Green" It did not come in a static bag - crappy newegg packaging. |
Look at some of the more recent ones...
Looks like Seagate is trying to pull a fast one, relying on the past stellar reputation of the Samsung F4 HD204UI reputation to push an inferior product after buying the Samsung HD division. I have 4 of the pre-flood versions myself and they have performed flawlessly. NewEgg Reviews [newegg.com] like the following are making me think twice about buying more cjtenny 5/3/2012 8:56:21 AM Not what it used to be Me Is Down 4/25/2012 5:03:24 PM Drive Is Decent BUT *Seagate Gives 1 Year Warranty!* northbridge 4/22/2012 8:24:35 AM Samsung or Seagate??? c128 4/22/2012 3:33:48 AM This is now officially Seagate! Well, this is a Seagate drive now. At first I thought they sent me a wrong disk. I got the new disk April 20 and the label said it's a "STX-BarracudaLP(B)", manufactured in China in March 2012. It was also labeled as Barracuda Green, which gave me the creeps. Only after carefully studying the label I could see the HD204UI printed in small letters along with Samsung name. The model number is now ST2000DL004. The old buddy ES-Tool does not recognize it -- says it's not a Samsung drive. I am not sure if the firmware is different, however, the firmware ID is still 1AQ100001 as reported by SeaTools. |

Saturday morning, over breakfast, Alice von Hildebrand began telling me things she had meant to mention the evening before in her lecture on the role of the heart in human life, but hadn't. Thinking others might like to hear what she was saying, I started recoring. I captured two nuggets I thought especially worth sharing.
The first is on sentimentality as a perversion of the heart, and on Jean-Jacques Rousseau as a perfect example of it: click here to listen
The second, a bit longer than the first, is a beautiful philosophical and scriptural reflection on the meaning of nakedness: click here to listen
Another point came up in our conversation, which I didn't record, but want to add …

Game Preview 5/30/11: Round 2 - Angels @ Royals
Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (28-27) @ Kansas City Royals (23-29)
Pitching Probables: LAA – Ervin Santana (3-4, 3.95 ERA) KC – Luke Hochevar (3-5, 4.81 ERA)
Game Info: 1:10 PM PT; TV -Fox Sports West; Radio- KLAA 830
The Angels may not be looking for redemption for the opening series against KC at the beginning of the year, but I sure am. Back then nothing was working well for the Angels, except the starting pitching of course. The bullpen was off and the offense was struggling to fly out of the gate. Everything is looking much better now, and the Angels are taking some momentum from Minnesota to Kansas.

How much do you pay your babysitters?
May 17, 2011
© Erin Zammett Ruddy
I realize this is a potentially nosy question but I'm not talking about what you pay in childcare or how much your nanny costs or anything like that. I'm talking, you and your man want to go out to dinner and you get the neighbor girl or the daycare teacher or your cousin's daughter to come over and watch your kids. How much do you pay her? And, perhaps more importantly, how much do you tip her?
The other night I handed my sitter $100 and it kind of hurt. We were gone for five hours and got in late and she fed and bathed both kids, cleaned up the kitchen and emptied the dishwasher. But she didn't make them dinner or organize their closets or teach them Spanish. And my kids were asleep for 80 percent of the time. A hundo felt a little steep…but was it?
We typically pay $12-$15 an hour for the three sitters we have in rotation. I feel like this is pretty standard for where I live—Long Island—but where it gets tricky (and expensive) is the tip. We have all sorts of justifications for why we need to add more and more onto the base. We tip more on the weekend, we tip more when we get home late, we tip more when she has both kids versus one, we tip more when she arrives early enough to have to juggle both kids for a while, we tip more when we don't have change. And we tip more when we come home tipsy. In other words, we tip a lot.
And I generally like to be generous because I want them to always say yes when I text last-minute: "Any chance u can watch the kids tomorrow night?" (Almost all communication with my sitters is done over text, which I heart.) And the big, super-important bottom line: I trust them all with my kids, my kids love them and it is a complete non-issue (i.e., no tears, no guilt, no worries) when Nick and I go out, which is priceless if you ask me. Only it's not. In fact, it's quite pricey
And I worry that it's getting out of control. That we're setting a higher and higher precedent that, eventually, is going to make going out hurt more than it already does (add dinner and drinks to that babysitter money and you're looking at a roundtrip airline ticket, plus the bag fee). That said, I think date night is one of the most important elements of our relationship. Nick and I make a conscious investment in our alone time away from the kids—we know we need it, we want it, and it makes us better people and parents (look how happy we are in the photo above--that takes TLC!). So we are willing to, occasionally, shell out the big bucks. And we're getting better and better at asking my parents to take the kids (or saying yes when my mom offers, which she does a lot). There is nothing like free babysitters. I repeat, if you do not live near family, consider moving!
OK, so that's my situation. Now I'm curious about what you pay (and where you live, since I imagine some of this is regional) and how you calculate those figures—i.e., when you dish out more, when you give less. Do you agree that hiring a babysitter is an investment in your future as a happy couple or do you think that's just me justifying my nights out! Do tell!


text:
Yeah. I did Google it and couldn't find any support for your figure. So I gave you the benefit of the doubt and thought maybe I might have missed it and asked you to tell us where you got that number from. It is now obvious that you got that number from the same place you get all of your numbers: your a$$.<quoted text>
might I suggest Google for your education.
and I care less what you trust or think. You need institutionalized as it is.
