JACKSONVILLE ŌĆō Gus Bradley stayed on message Sunday.
At the same time, although the JaguarsŌĆÖ first-year head coach continued to do what he did following the first three games of the 2013 season ŌĆō emphasizing the positives of a one-sided loss ŌĆō he spent equal time Sunday on another subject:
Because although Bradley said he continued to see growth despite a 37-3 loss to the Indianapolis Colts Sunday afternoon, he said the penalties and other mistakes contributing to a 0-4 start canŌĆÖt be tolerated.
He also said competing isnŌĆÖt just ŌĆ£trying,ŌĆØ but it also has to be about competing the right way to yield results.
ŌĆ£We must continue to emphasize competing,ŌĆØ Bradley said after the Colts outgained the Jaguars 437-205 in front of 59,695 at EverBank Field Sunday afternoon.
ŌĆ£But competing is not just in effort. I want our team to understand that. Yes, we have good effort. But thatŌĆÖs not all competing is about. We have to compete in all areas. I know our players want to. It falls on me to teach our players how to. We have to do a better job of that.ŌĆØ
The Colts had 26 first downs to 14 for the Jaguars, and also held a 36:38-23:22 time of possession advantage, pulling away from a 3-3 tie at the end of the first quarter. Cornerback Darius Butler returned an interception 41 yards for a touchdown and Trent Richardson ran 1-yard for another touchdown as the Colts scored 17 second-quarter points.
Colts quarterback Andrew Luck completed 22 of 36 passes for 260 yards and two third-quarter touchdowns. He threw one interception. That came from cornerback
ŌĆ£There is lot of good taking place ŌĆō a lot of small victories, as IŌĆÖve said before,ŌĆØ Bradley said. ŌĆ£But I think there are some things we have to be stubborn on ŌĆō I really do. There are a lot of things that have been really positive with our culture and IŌĆÖm going to stay strong on that. IŌĆÖm going to stay stubborn to protect that, but there has to be flexibility. We canŌĆÖt keep banging our head against the wall in some other areas.ŌĆØ
Bradley talked on Sunday of adding pressure to the competitiveness. He has often talked about pressing players, but not adding stress. The Jaguars committed nine penalties for 65 yards, with defensive end
Babin now has six penalties this season.
ŌĆ£Today I think we need to talk about pressure,ŌĆØ Bradley said. ŌĆ£To not execute, to jump offsides, to have nine penalties ŌĆō all of those things are in our control. We can no longer do this. ItŌĆÖs something we can control. A lot of them were foolish penalties.
ŌĆ£I know we have the character. I know we have the guys. I must not be stressing it enough to our players. IŌĆÖve got to get better at that and I will.ŌĆØ
Bradley afterward also took responsibility for several missed interceptions and missed receptions. All three interceptions thrown by quarterback
The first two interceptions were off wide receiver
ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖll find out why,ŌĆØ Bradley said. ŌĆ£IŌĆÖm sure itŌĆÖs on me, and I know those guys will take responsibility, too. WeŌĆÖll find a way.ŌĆØ
Bradley said he doesnŌĆÖt believe itŌĆÖs time to start a mass releasing and signing of players.
ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖre going to have guys come in for practice squad and things like that, but right now, we need to get guys where we can have some rhythm and get some rhythm going,ŌĆØ Bradley said.
Bradley didnŌĆÖt lay the blame for the loss on Gabbert.
Gabbert, starting for the first time since sustaining a lacerated hand in the regular-season opener, completed 17 of 32 passes for 179 yards and no touchdowns with three interceptions. All interceptions were off deflections by receivers, which Bradley noted.
ŌĆ£IŌĆÖm staying strong with Blaine,ŌĆØ Bradley said.
Bradley said he realized there were those who have grown impatient with Gabbert, now in his third season.
ŌĆ£I know you say, ŌĆśGus, ŌĆśweŌĆÖve waited to see,ŌĆÖ but IŌĆÖve got to see it,ŌĆÖŌĆØ Bradley said, noting that some routes are getting broken off by receivers and that not all of the mistakes are on the quarterback. ŌĆ" I have to go back and say, ŌĆśIs it Blaine?ŌĆÖ We have to take a good look at it.ŌĆØ
Bradley encouraged Gabbert to take more chances, and Bradley said he did so Sunday.
ŌĆ£We have to stretch these defenses out somehow,ŌĆØ Bradley said. ŌĆ£We have to take some shots on top. Those opportunities we have, we have to hit. He tried to show some freedom. ThatŌĆÖs going to be a process, too.ŌĆØ
Jaguars tight end
Lewis, who missed the first three games of the season with a calf injury, started, but did not return after sustaining the injury.
Wide receiver
1. Bradley on Shorts: ŌĆ£HeŌĆÖs competing. HeŌĆÖs going after it. He made some plays. He has to understand when you do well in the NFL, that (double teaming) is going to come. That canŌĆÖt slow you down. ThatŌĆÖs the challenge for him. But I have no doubt Cecil is one of our fiercest competitors.ŌĆØ
2. Gabbert: ŌĆ£As quarterback, you have to take your shots. Like they say around the league, you have to take calculated risks. We left a lot of plays out there that we should have made. All eleven guys on our football team have to make those plays.ŌĆØ
3. Jaguars running back
4. Jaguars defensive end Jason Babin: ItŌĆÖs the NFL, the margin for error is small when you make mistakes.ŌĆØ
5. Safety
1. Gabbert surpassed 4,000 career passing yards.
2. Jaguars linebacker
3. The Jaguars failed to score a touchdown for the second time in four games.
4. Linebacker
The Jaguars (0-4) will visit the St. Louis Rams (1-3) at the Edward Jones Dome in St. Louis Sunday at 1 p.m.

Jerome Power Takes the Stand in His Own DefenseBy Trish Mehaffey, Reporter
CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa - Jerome Power took the stand Friday in his first-degree murder trial and contradicted most of the details he gave police back in September 2010, the night his neighbor was strangled to death.
Power repeatedly ranted in a police video played Thursday about a former resident from his and Bevins' apartment house that he was convinced assaulted and killed Bevins on Sept. 19, 2010. Power testified today he was mistaken about the former resident, Terry Wilson, being the killer and other details he gave after his arrest were "exaggerations," confusion over time and incident, memory lapse or the police got it wrong. Power also accused another man of killing Bevins that night. He saw this man coming around the corner from Bevins' apartment as he was going to pump up her air mattress for the second time that day. Power, 50, is accused of killing Bevins, 68, who died from ligature strangulation. Police found Bevins lying unconscious on the floor of her apartment with pajama pants tightly tied around her neck. Power was hiding behind the entry door when police had to break out a window to get inside the locked apartment after receiving a 911 call. Power testified he was "amped" up Sept. 19, 2010 because he just got a new job. He celebrated that day with friends and watched movies at home and aired up Bevins' mattress in the afternoon. Later that night about 10 p.m., he grabbed his textbook and was sitting outside on the stairs of his apartment when he saw Bevins and she asked him to put more air in her mattress. He went down to Bevins' apartment about 11 p.m. and saw Wilson nearby. Then, he saw another black man coming around the corner from Bevins' with a Styrofoam plate. Power then knocked on Bevins' door but she didn't answer, so he just walked in. Out of habit, he just shut the door and locked it. He looked for the air pump that was kept behind the door but it wasn't there, so he walked to the back of the apartment and heard "banging." Then, he saw Bevins lying on the floor. He heard police and hollered "Wait, wait" trying to get to the door, Power said. Then, police broke a window and rushed in, without letting him explain what happened. They immediately put him in a "choke hold," cuffed him and took him to the ground. Linn County Attorney Jerry Vander Sanden on cross examination asked him if everything he said today was the truth. Power said it was. Vander Sanden said was everything true in the police interview. "Yes and no," Power said. "I misjudged Wilson and I apologized to him for that. I got the times wrong." Vander Sanden asked if he changed details of the story because he saw the police video and reviewed the transcript. Power said he just saw the video for the first time. He admitted being incorrect on some things. "You didn't say anything about your efforts to save Doris Bevins?" Vander Sanden said. Power admitted to lying in the police interview about performing CPR and giving her mouth to mouth. "You said several times that you did," Vander Sanden said. "So, those were all lies?" Power said "Those were incorrect." He wanted to be able to revive her but couldn't. He doesn't know how to perform CPR. "You claimed you called 911 that night with her (Bevins) cell?" Vander Sanden said. Power said that wasn't true. Police testified there was no record of a 911 call from Power. Only Philip Bemer, Bevins' friend, called 911. Vander Sanden asked him to explain a portion of the video when Power was alone in the room and he appeared to be spitting on his hands and wiping them through his hair and then brushing off his clothes and taking his socks and slapping them against his pants. "Were you trying to get rid of or disguise some evidence?" Vander Sanden said. Power watched it and said he wasn't trying to get rid of evidence on him. "Didn't you say something about DNA," Vander Sanden said as he turned up the video sound and made Power listen again. The jurors leaned forward in their seats to hear that part. "There, did you hear that?" Power said "No." "Didn't Doris Bevins let you in that night because she trusted you?" Vander Sanden said. "Didn't you ask her about her stove…….wasn't that your ruse to get in that night. You assaulted her and tried to blame somebody else?" Power said "No." In earlier testimony, Wilson testified he didn't kill Bevins. He had known her for more than 10 years and considered her a friend. He didn't see her that day. Police testified they never considered Wilson or the other man Power accused as suspects in this case. The defense rested after Power's testimony. Closing arguments are 9 a.m. Monday and the jury may start deliberations late morning. Gazette reporter Trish Mehaffey will continue her live coverage from the courtroom Monday for closing arguments, you can follow along here. Most Popular |

Who CARES what text editor Apple puts on tablets? The post you're replying to is about how horrible 8 is for desktops, which it is. You're redirecting the discussion away from that, to talk about telephones and tabletsGÇöanother smoking gun also in every shill post.
People who don't want 8 on their desktops don't GIVE a damn about telephones and tablets.

re: Microsoft's Influence Fading Fast: Gartner
"I'm likely missing a few bullet points due to opting to not read this entire misinformed rant. "
So you're replying to a well thought-out post after admitting you didn't read it.
> "Redhat is a commercial Linux OS"
With all the free Linux packages, you say Linux won't get installed because redhat costs money. And you say it when MS is charging $140 for Windows.
> "Sure, geeks who like to scurry through command prompts love it,"
You MS shills are still pushing the myth that Linux isn't GUI. When I call you "liars", and "scum", this is an example of why.
>" but operating systems have to be built for real people who use them every day."
That is exactly why 8 has failed! MS arrogantly dismissed "real people who use them every day" because MS assumes they HAVE to buy windows, then designing an OS who's only consideration was a cynical attempt to sell MS telephones.
>"imagine your grandparents trying to find software."
Grandma and grandpa only use a web browser and (maybe) a word processor.
>"the reason for the early market problems is due to human nature of not wanting change.
That identical wording seen in all shill posts because it's on the list of talking points your boss emailed your department.
Also note that it's not something a "real" person would say. Real commentors talk about the product, not about how stupid everyone is for not buying the latest MS failure mode.
You have a lot of nerve bashing Linux' usability by lying about it when Metro is so _grotesquely_ unusable. One industry reviewer said "I'm buying a Mac and all it took was one look at Windows 8". Another said "Whoever designed Metro should be imprisoned".
Yet you MS boys politely ignore this and all the other massive, similar feedback, just like your furniture-smashing boss Ballmer does.
> "tell aunt Bertha that she needs to buy a Linux machine. Guess what? Now she can't figure it out"
The Linux GUI is just like XP.
A youtube video went bigtime viral specifically because it was about bewildered old people cussing out Metro!
The problem with posting shill lies to IT people is that over time, you *necessarily* back yourself into a rhetorical corner and look like a bumbling, retarded clown.
No wonder you marketing guys drink so heavily.

re: Microsoft's Influence Fading Fast: Gartner
Thanks for the comment, Terabyte Net. You're right that PCs aren't dead; as I wrote in the article, even according to Gartner's estimates, the PC industry will still ship more than 270 million units in 2017. I suspect most "dying" industries would envy that kind of volume.
Video work is a fine example of a task for which tablets simply won't do-- you're right about that as well. As someone who's done a lot with Final Cut Pro 7, the Adobe Creative Suite and other such programs, I don't need my editors to "point out" this fact, though. ;) The Black Magic Pocket Cam that was just announced at NAB illustrates your point here. It's going to make waves, assuming BM has its supply chain in order, among ambitious amateurs and indie filmmakers-- and this group is, thanks to the explosion of cheap DSLRS, pretty big. These people are all gonna need i7-powered PCs to deal with the big ProRes files, to say nothing of grade the footage in Resolve/Colorista/whatever. This is just once instance among many others in which a group of users will need good ole PCs for the foreseeable future.
That said, tablets, including Apple's, have legitimate business use cases that belie the "iToy" label. Tablets don't have uses for all businesses. But for some - marketing, sales, customer service - the new mobility-oriented business workflows present greater upside than the PC-oriented models they've replaced.
Ultimately, though, I don't think we're that far apart on the big point: the traditional PC isn't dead.
The PC is, however, ceding some of the tasks it used to own. This process changes the way PCs fit into the average user's life and gradually erodes the PC's influence in the personal electronics arena. It would be hyperbole to say the PC is dead or dying, but it's certainly true that the traditional computer's role is changing, and in some regards contracting.

re: Microsoft's Influence Fading Fast: Gartner
Sorry, a bit random here but, ... for Metro haters, the simple solution, install Classic Shell. It works, it's <9MB, open source, and very very stable. You actually do get MANY options to customize Windows 8, if you'll spend the time to try. Using CS you get the speed, stability (I've yet to have a Win8 box BSOD either for business or consumer customers), and security of Win8 and the GUI of XP, Vista, or Win7 (your choice).
As for Facebook and things like that, corporations have that problem every day. Either they allow Facebook or they don't. It's called Application Control. $600 firewalls like the Cisco ISA500 series offer this feature out of the box so if you don't want FB, block it. No YouTube, block it. Simple and should be done at the firewall NOT on the desktop.
For killer apps, Microsoft shipped at least as much as Apple does with its products. Why should Microsoft had to have had more apps? They did ship a basic Office with RT. What does Apple ship? A cruddy note pad.
For the most part Metro is for consumers and MS knows it. Businesses are still deploying 7 and will be for another year or more, especially until Win8 SP1 ships. By then 8 should have Metro-deployable business apps if businesses demand them, if not they'll create desktop icons and have the user boot to the desktop.
So having used 8 for a long time now and having originally absolutely hated it, I can tell you you are incorrect about having zero adjustments options. 8 is very customizable, look for it. BTW, people hated Windows 95 too. Actually, they hated Windows when it first came out preferring their DOS launch menus. People also hated Mozart, Beethoven, Wagner (ok, some still do) and The Beatles. People don't like change but eventually come around.

re: Microsoft's Influence Fading Fast: Gartner
Laurianne, seriously? You're comparing iToys and Androids targeted clearly at home users to Windows that can cover all bases? InformationWeek is not ConsumerInformationWeek. InformationWeek used to be about IT world for businesses. When industry trades start mixing apples with oranges (no pun intended) the lines get blurred. Management starts reading 'we need more iToys' and demanding that IT find a way to do this, then productivity drops. Let's see you create a multi-million $ professional presentation on any iToy or Android. At least with a Surface Pro or other Windows tablets you have access to REAL business software not the cloud garbage Google wants you using. Edit that 1080p video shot for the presentation on a tablet, oh wait, at over 10GB/hour for 1080p 60fps video, how exactly are you going to edit that on a tablet? Yes, that's the exception not the rule, but tablets have their places, just like microwaves do. When microwaves first became affordable in the late 70's (give or take) everyone talked about the demise of the traditional oven/stove. Do you own an oven/stove? I do. As with microwaves, tablets have their place, but their place is as an extension to the PC (I don't care what OS) not as a replacement. When InformationWeek and other trades start looking at it this way IT management will stop making bad choices. I see it every day having consulted with corporations all over N. America for over 20 years.

re: Microsoft's Influence Fading Fast: Gartner
I just love how Linux and Apple fans believe their OSs are invulnerable to viruses. Any OS, that's right ANY OS, written by a human can be breached by another human. Apple has had egg on its face several times recently and has backed off their claims that they're immune. As for replacing XP with Linux, you're joking. Where are the apps for consumers? How about PhotoShop, Vegas, accounting software for small businesses, etc...? Linux is never going to take over the consumer or end-user corporate desktop. Keep dreaming.

jhkjhk, seriously you need to read some history. Apple stole the SAME GUI you're accusing Microsoft of stealing. Apple openly took Xerox's GUI for their own. Google has done exactly the same thing. In fact, Xerox was the only one to ever truly innovate. Gates FULLY paid for his OS and built Windows, Windows NT, Windows 95, Windows 2k-8 from the ground up, borrowing the best ideas from places like UNIX where, if you'll look at the UNIX copyright, it borrows from Microsoft as well. Apple and Google on the other hand have exploited open-source operating systems and turned them into profit centers. Apple and Google have never innovated. Apple has copied every single thing they've ever done. Google is just a copycat and then gives away their OS to drive people to their site for ads. Talk about not caring about anyone. At least MS makes $ openly. In fact, if we want to talk about screwing classes of people let's see, used to be that and office "suite" was made up of 1-2-3, WordPerfect, Harvard Graphics, & dBase. That "suite" would set you back $3,000. Now you can get 10x the capabilities for <$500 in Microsoft Office Pro Plus. How is that screwing the middle class. I just love it when people bash MS without any real facts.
Now, Mr. Endler, what you editors fail to point out is you can browse the Internet and check e-mail and Facebook, but that's about all you can do on a toy (e.g. a tablet). Let's see you edit that 1080p video you just shot with your fancy smartphone or video camera. Let's see you pop that SD card into your iToy and download the 32GB of photos you shot on your most recent vacation, oh, I forgot, no SD card readers on iToys. PCs are not dead and won't be for a very long time. People will require storage and processing power that toys are never going to give them. I routinely see home PCs with 2TB and larger HDDs in them along with video cards with a GB of RAM or more. The PC isn't dead or even dying, it's being added-to just like you would add a scanner or printer to extend your PCs capability. It's time for editors to really see them for what they are, overpriced toys.

re: Microsoft's Influence Fading Fast: Gartner
For lack of a better way of to put this... you're not as bright as you think you are. I'm likely missing a few bullet points due to opting to not read this entire misinformed rant.
1. There are WalMart stores in Europe and Asia.
2. Redhat is a commercial Linux OS. Linux needs more than a pretty interface to be a player. Sure geeks who like to scurry through command prompts love it, but operating systems have to be built for real people who use them every day.
3. LInux, Android nor IOS are "virus free". They simply aren't as common due to market size. And those numbers are growing readily. Not to mention, some of the first viruses ever were written for the UNIX platform.
4. The Linux market share has gone up less than 1% over the last ten years. It is growing, but simply, at this time, is not user friendly enough for the average user... IE: iphone users.
5. Earlier versions of Linux did outperform Windows, but as they have grown it's not much of a difference. And what isn't faster than XP? XP ihas had a long life due to its stability and usability not its speed. Let's compare Windows 7 or Windows 8 to that and see who's faster.
6. Good luck finding software for your Linux. Sure a geek can find software, but imagine your parents or grandparents trying to find software.
While you do present good arguments that Microsoft has let these new emerging market(s) get away from them, Windows 8 is very solid ( does have room for improvement ) and a lot of the reason for the early market problems is due to human nature of not wanting change.
I hear so much about how the desktop pc is dying. Sure you can facebook or play on the internet with a phone or tablet. But what about the rest of the world who actually do real work? There is a reason Microsoft has the market share they do, and that number will likely fall a good bit, but that's due to tablets/phones being a DIVERGING market, not a replacement for the computer market. Simply put, if you think that Microsoft won't be a player in these markets, you are fooling yourself.
And one last thing: There is more to it than telling aunt bertha that she needs to buy a great awesome new Linux machine. Guess what? Now she can't figure it out, doesn't know how to get software for it... etc etc etc. Guess who she's going to call? You! I've made that mistake with suggesting certian people try Android over iphone... and since Android allows you to have more control... those people couldn't figure out how to install apps, blah blah blah. I don't have time to go help someone every time they can't figure out something on their phone. Don't preach the gospel if you don't want to hear the confessions.
I am an IT professional so i know these things...
Okay, sorry for the last jab... kinda.

Here's a highly technical reason why a tablet will never replace my PC...the screen is too small for my 59-year old eyes! And, yes, I've used my kids' iPad to arrive at that conclusion. Oh, and my fingers are too big for those itty bitty icons for the GUI to ever be user friendly...

re: Microsoft's Influence Fading Fast: Gartner
It is really too bad that Microsoft has managed to alienate many of their existing desktop users with the Modern/Metro interface. I think it is a good environment with a lot of pluses for programmers, but they missed the boat in so many ways.
1) there should have been a set of killer apps at the rollout. Instead of the pathetic mail, music, pictures, etc. apps, a comprehensive set of apps that would have appealed to more than the most basic of casual users would have gone a long way.
2) Metro/Modern as an option. Some people love it, some hate it but forcing it on all existing users whether they want it or not was a big mistake as it generated a lot of public unhappiness among the existing user base - the very people who should be interested.
3) Removal of chrome. This sounds trivial but the removal of "nice" display options on the desktop simply smacks of Redmond slapping existing users in the face. There isn't any technical reason for it, which implies that Microsoft did it just to spite their users.
4) Single-screen only. For a desktop OS this was artificially limiting. Again there was no technical limitation so it was a conscious Microsoft decision to ignore the greater power of desktops and only design the OS for tablets/pads. It sounds like Blue may partially eliminate this limitation but in doing so it introduces the same problems for programmers that Metro/Modern was trumpeted as eliminating - worrying about multiple resolutions and how to arrange screen elements as resolution changes.
5) Lack of business IT support. Being relentlessly consumer-focused, Windows 8 introduces a new set of issues for business with very little tools to manage them. Want to lock down the start screen centrally? can't, no GPO's to do it with. Want to pre-install Metro/Modern apps for each user on the computer? can't no GPO's to do it with. You can prevent access to the Microsoft Apps store, but its a all/nothing toggle. There is no way to allow access to productivity apps and prevent access to games. What happens if you log in with your corporate account and share to facebook? how will companies prevent corporate secrets from getting out - almost no tools exist for locking down, managing and tracking in the new environment.
6) App limitations. Apps must be individually installed for each user of each computer, with a limit of 5 computers. That sounds fine for the casual user downloading fruit-ninja, but does not sound very easy to manage with a company with a few hundred computers and users that move around. A comprehensive set of tools to allow settings to be pre-loaded and configured should have been included. A replacement App store can be created but what little I have read looks like a nightmare to manage so only the biggest probably will try it.
7) In my personal case, I am unhappy about the conscious decision by Microsoft to remove all choice in the look and feel of the Metro/Modern environment. Want to change font size because it doesn't work for these tired old eyes? nope. I think the scroll bars are too small and the light-gray on white is virtually invisible, any chance I can adjust it? nope. Tired of black on white and want a little less contrast in a screenfull of text, can I adjust it? nope. You get ZERO options to adjust anything. I don't know if that is a Metro/Modern thing or just every programmer has decided it's too much work but I know I personally avoid most Metro/Modern apps because they are so difficult to use.

text: BLACKFOOT — The Springfield Park committee presented an $8,000 check to the Bingham County Commissioners Wednesday. The money will be used for playground equipment at the community's park. All equipment at the park will be compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), noted committee member Herb Bohrer. Committee members started raising funds for this project last March. They have sponsored dinners, swap meets, a fun run and a yard sale. The yard sale raised $4,000, said Bohrer.

Macro forces continue to have an impact on the global influence of cities. Political power is rotating back from West to East, and with economic drivers having shifted from agrarian to industrial to information-based, more people live in cities than in rural areas. While New York, London, Paris, and Tokyo still rank among today's top cities, it appears that Beijing and Shanghai may become significant rivals in the next 10 to 20 years.
interesting that latin america's top global cities are buenos aires (22), sao paulo (33), mexico city (34), and bogota (55), while in the middle east dubai (29), istanbul (37), tel aviv (46), and cairo (50) lead the way.
beirut, along with cairo, are described as examples of emerging 'geopolitical urban vectors that are becoming a sort of infrastructure for the global economy, which is increasingly not about state-to-state transactions, but rather about urban axes that bring together key cities. These cities rearticulate what the Middle East means as a region. Beirut has long and well established politico-economic networks worldwide; Cairo has the multitudes and a history of empire.'

Strategic Planning at UNK (effective through 2012, reaffirmed for 2013-2016)
UNK is engaged in an iterative, inclusive, and ongoing approach to campus-wide strategic planning that translates our collective institutional vision into action. UNK planning is guided by a Strategic Framework Document (.pdf) prepared by the University of Nebraska Board of Regents and a statewide plan developed by the Coordinating Commission for Postsecondary Education.
Strategic planning establishes an organization's desired future and provides direction for programs. It is how leaders focus institutional ways and means toward desired ends. Just as importantly, through an interactive process of self-scrutiny and dialogue, planning promotes institutional cohesion. While the most obvious product of this process is a plan—a document that records how thoughts and circumstances have converged during a particular period of time—perhaps the most valuable product of strategic planning is the collaboration it requires. This process of thinking together about purposes, values, and capability engenders a unifying dynamic that strengthens a community and empowers it to advance.
History and Prospect
At UNK, more than a century of planning has guided our evolution from an isolated regional normal school into a modern comprehensive university that provides educational access to students throughout the United States and the world. Currently, within the University of Nebraska system, UNK has the distinctive mission to be a premier institution for undergraduate education, to offer graduate programs grounded in that strength, and to enhance the social, cultural, and economic development of our region and state through educational programs, scholarship, and public service. In 1994-95, following a decennial North Central Association of Colleges and Schools (NCA) re-accreditation process, we developed a strategic plan to guide initial development within the NU system. In 2004, again building upon re-accreditation analyses, we launched a renewed planning effort to extend our prior accomplishments and position UNK for success in a new era. UNK's strategic planning developed in two phases.
Phase I: Mission, Vision, and Planning Guidance
Chancellor Douglas Kristensen chaired UNK's Strategic Planning Committee (SPC) during Phase I (2004-2006). The SPC grounded its work statement upon our NCA re-accreditation Self-Study and ongoing appraisal of our situation and progress. Informed by broad campus dialogue, the SPC engaged in systematic analysis and deliberation to develop a campus-wide strategic plan (.pdf), a comprehensive consensus statement of UNK's mission, vision, goals, objectives, and high-value directions for program development to guide decision-making for the following five to ten years.
Phase I links:
Phase II: Realizing the Vision
During Phase II, we emphasized that important institutional goals require units to "see" and collaborate across functional boundaries. As Phase II "supporting" plans were developed, we sought to capture the best thinking of our specialists relative to aligning priorities and programs with Phase I guidance.
In addition, parallel to and in association with development of our Phase I Plan we prepared a general blueprint to enhance the physical campus. That document (.pdf), which the University's Board of Regents reviewed, is now an important part of the family of implementing plans that describe the major ways we are attempting to realize our institutional vision.
The Enrollment Management Council convened in 2008, and with the assistance of the Noel-Levitz enrollment consulting firm, developed a Strategic Enrollment plan (.pdf) [summarized in the Strategic Enrollment Plan Executive Summary (.pdf)]. The plan, completed in June 2009, addresses institutional objectives for student recruitment and success. In 2011, the Student Success Council built on this work and developed a Student Success plan (.pdf) to address retention activities and improvement of graduation rate.
Each of the following Phase II supporting plans, like the Phase I document itself, provides guidelines for proceeding within the context of current or foreseeable circumstances. While representing our current best thinking on the matters addressed, we recognize and anticipate the need to thoughtfully to adjust and augment plans as our situation, context, and goals may evolve.

I bought this kit when I was making aquarium stand and canopy for my 300g saltwater reef tank. Nice kit and was able to use it from making the frame work all the way to the doors. I wish I was able to get this price at the time. Only thing I changed up was using stainless screws instead of the supplied ones...1
If your into woodworking and can get it at this price....do |
Thanks for posting this! My local stores didn't have any, but one close to my sister did, so she's going to pick it up and bring it when she comes for Easter. This was perfect timing, as I was about to buy the normal $140 kit, and this is a much better deal for a few dollars more.

Great Deal!
I'd buy it at this price in a heartbeat if I didn't already own most of what is included. Dovetails, mortises, and biscuits are more professional methods of joinery, but this works, and works very well as long as you can keep the screw holes hidden. Edit: I should add that you can get similar vice-grip style clamps at Harborfreight for about $5 each, but the Kreg clamps are much nicer to work with and have larger pads. I'm not sure that I would pay the $20+ to buy them individually, but they are a valuable addition to this set. Last edited by jeff34270; 03-16-2013 at 08:37 AM.. |

President Obama signed the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act into law on April 5, 2012. BIO advocated strongly for this new law, which includes several important policies designed to stimulate capital formation for growing businesses.
Capital formation challenges in the industry have forced many biotech companies to halt projects, lay off staff or shutdown all together. Our analysis shows that the industry is approximately one-quarter smaller than it was in 2008.
BIO believes that the level of support provided by the TDP simply cannot meet the needs of the growing biotech field. As evidence of the project's popularity suggests, Congress should consider extending or expanding the project in order to support American innovation and speed the development of life-saving cures.
The biotech industry is a thriving sector employing 1.3 million Americans in high quality, high paying jobs.
Acorda Therapeutics' Ron Cohen presented testimony on the importance of federal policies to support the biotechnology industry at a House Committee on Science, Space and Technology, Subcommittee on Technology and Innovation hearing on March 27, a summary of his testimony is presented here
State governments in 2011 continued to see regional economic growth in the life sciences industry and in 2012 will increasingly focus attention on technology transfer and venture funding as mechanisms to increase private sector innovation related activities within their jurisdictions. Realizing that entrepreneurship is a key ingredient in economic development, states and localities are undertaking the support of programs that assist high technology businesses, and that capitalize on state regional presence of universities and federal laboratories.
Congress has the opportunity to help speed lifesaving cures and treatments to patients by removing burdens to innovation in our industry.
Jobs and salaries in this industry have substantially grown in the past ten years. To date, there are more than 47,000 bioscience companies and 1.4 million workers in the United States.
The Small Business Innovation Research Grants Program Provides Critical Support to Small Biotech Companies Working on Promising Innovations
Jack discusses her greatest accomplishments, advice for industry leaders, and the promise of biotech. Pulmatrix is a clinical trial stage biotech company based in Lexington, Mass.
On July 26, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced four new project areas for the Biomass Crop Assistance Program.
What is your opinion of biotechnology companies – very favorable, somewhat favorable, somewhat unfavorable, or very unfavorable?
Society has tapped just a small fraction of the many potential uses and benefits of biotechnology.
BIO and five member companies – Mendel Biotechnology, Arborgen, Abengoa Bioenergy, Novozymes and BP Biofuels – along with the Biomass Power Association held a briefing on Capitol Hill this week, outlining the importance of the USDA's Biomass Crop Assistance Program (BCAP) and related programs. Regulatory rules for the BCAP, Biorefinery Assistance Program, and Rural Energy for America Program (REAP) were finalized by USDA only during the last quarter of 2010. But Congress is considering cutting the funds for these programs before they have a chance to show their effectiveness.

CP | By The Canadian Press Posted: 03/30/2012 12:50 pm Updated: 03/30/2012 3:23 pm
OTTAWA - Premier Dalton McGuinty says he won't consider any new spending suggestions for the budget, even if that means Ontario voters end up going back to the polls.
He says voters don't want another election six months after the last one, but he's willing to campaign on the budget if he has to.
The minority Liberals need one of the opposition parties to support their budget to avoid triggering an election, but the Opposition Conservatives have already said they'll vote against it.
NDP Leader Andrea Horwath was out mainstreeting this morning in Toronto in an effort to get more feedback on whether her party should support the budget.
The NDP have set up a hotline and say they've received thousands of calls from people who have different opinions about the budget, which aims to eliminate the $15-billion deficit in five years.
A crucial vote on the budget could come as soon as next Thursday, but no later than April 24.

Intriguing like the night, and full of mystery: a rosé body that conceals the soul of a white. Monastrell grapes impart a special complexity and elegance to De Nit, without affecting the rich freshness characteristic of all our cavas. The grapes are harvested by hand and rapidly delivered to the winery, where they are processed via a gravity flow system. At each stage of the production process the atmosphere is controlled by dry ice. Assemblage is followed by bottle fermentation and ageing for at least 15 months in the neck-down position.

Mitochondrial ADP/ATP carriers are inhibited by two natural compounds, atractyloside (ATR) or carboxy-atractyloside (CATR), which differ by one carboxylate group. The interactions of the inhibitors with the carrier were investigated by single-molecule force spectroscopy. Transmembrane α helices of the ATR-inhibited carrier displayed heterogeneous mechanical and kinetic properties. Whereas α helix H2 showed the most brittle mechanical properties and lowest kinetic stability, α helix H5 was mechanically the most flexible and possessed a kinetic stability 9 orders of magnitude greater than that of α helix H2. In contrast, CATR-binding substantially increased the kinetic stability of α helix H2 and tuned the mechanical flexibility of α helices H5 and H6. NMR spectroscopy confirmed that the additional carboxylate group of CATR binds to the sixth α helix, indicating that the enhanced stability of H2 is mediated via interactions between CATR and H6.

Lane County Public Health Department
HIV Testing & Prevention Program
General Information The HIV Testing & Prevention programs offer strategic services to high-risk populations to reduce the transmission of HIV. In Lane County and in Oregon, those at highest risk are men who have sex with men ( MSM ), injection drug users ( IDU s ) and partners of those living with HIV. Lane County Public Health offers HIV Counseling and Testing.
Links on this Page HIV Testing & Counseling Needle Exchange Services Living with HIV LCPH Location Further Information Contact
HIV is found in 4 body fluids (vaginal fluids, seminal fluids, blood, and breast milk). The only way to get infected with HIV is to have one of those four fluids from an infected partner get into your blood-stream and infect you. Learn more about HIV risk and transmission. In Oregon , the highest risk factors for getting HIV are sex between two men and sharing needles for injecting drugs.
The Centers for Disease Control & Prevention CDC and Oregon Department of Human Services ODHS recommend public sector HIV testing for those at highest risk for HIV infection. Back to Top
LCPH offers the HIV rapid test, which provides results within 20 minutes. All HIV-negative results are lab confirmed. Any preliminary positive results must be re-tested before being lab confirmed. As stated above, HIV testing may be done anonymously (no name) or confidentially (name). Hepatitis vaccinations and Syhpilis testing require name and date of birth.
The CDC and ODHS recommend public sector HIV testing for those most at-risk for HIV infection. In Lane County and in Oregon , Gay, Bisexual and other MSM make up 60-70% of all new HIV infections.
