Before you start charging, the battery is at 1 volt. At this point, the time is 0.Plugging these values into the equation gives 1 = 12 - A (2^0) = 12 - A.Therefore, A = 11.Now that we know A, we can answer b).At t=6, v = 12 - 11(2^-6) = 11.83V (2 decimal places)For c), we know v and need to find t.11.9 = 12 - 11(2^-t)11(2^-t) = 0.12^-t = 0.0090909...-t = log(2) 0.0090909... = -6.7813...t = 6.7813... hours.To convert the remainder into minutes, we multiply by 60.0.7813... x 60 = 47 minutes, to the nearest minute.Therefore, the total charging time is 6 hours, 47 minutes.
Hey everyone. i have been having a problem with one question, hope u people can help me out.Question: A 12 Volt car battery runs down to 1 volt and has to be recharged.The formula for the voltage (volts) at any time t (hours) during charging is given by: v = 12 - A (2^-t)1) How can i find the value of A2)Find the value of voltage after 6 hours.3) The battery never reaches a full 12 volts recharge, but reaches a maximum charge of 11.9 volts. At what time in hours and minutes does this occur????guys seriously need help, thank you.

< Return To Hearing
The Honorable Orrin Hatch
United States Senator "DHS Oversight: Terrorism and Other Topics" We are here today to hold our eighth hearing since last fall to oversee our government's attempts to protect against and respond to acts of terrorism. We heard from Attorney General Ashcroft yesterday. Today we are pleased to have Secretary Tom Ridge, the leader of the Department of Homeland Security. In the aftermath of September 11th, the new Department of Homeland Security was created. This was a massive undertaking the likes of which this country has not seen since 1947, when President Truman reorganized our defense and security agencies. I personally want to thank Secretary Ridge and his colleagues at DHS for your efforts to improve our nation's security. You are to be commended for your leadership and the initiatives that you have implemented--initiatives to increase our nation's ability to respond to emergencies, to enhance the security of our borders, to increase our ability to defend against bioterrorism, to improve our intelligence-gathering and information-sharing, and to integrate our local communities within our nation's homeland defense efforts. Despite the daunting nature of your charge, in just over a year your department has: -successfully merged 22 agencies and 180,000 employees into a single department; -developed and implemented aviation security procedures--including explosives detection systems; -issued new security directives requiring enhanced rail operator protocols; -tailored the student visit program to ensure that students who pose no threat to our country are permitted entry; -streamlined the information sharing process; -established a homeland security operations center aimed at coordinating the efforts of federal, state, and local authorities; -enhanced port security; -And, provided substantial assistance to those on the frontlines, our nation's first responders. By no means is this a comprehensive list of your accomplishments. And, all would agree, there is much more to be done in order to ensure the security of our homeland. Most recently, however, you have proven that you are a leader willing to take the constructive criticism and recommendations of others when it comes to safeguarding this country. By way of example, the Office of Inspector General recently issued a report recommending a number of changes to the Visa Waiver Program. In response, the Department of Homeland Security announced that by the end of September this year, it will extend US-VISIT requirements to travelers who visit the United States from Visa Waiver Countries. We have had 93 million visitors from these countries over the past five years, so this will not be an easy task. I commend you for taking this bold step forward to improve our visa waiver system, and for working to secure this country against the threat of terrorists. I do want to take a few moments to challenge the Administration in an area in which I think we can do much better: bioterrorism. First off, let me recognize that our country is in many ways much better off to respond to a bioterrorism attacks than we were in the Fall of 2001. Our first responders are much better equipped. There is much better coordination among the federal, state, and local governments - we in Utah saw this first hand during the Winter Olympics. I want to commend the Administration and my colleagues in Congress for the work on the Bioshield legislation. Senators Gregg, Frist and Kennedy have consistently moved the ball forward on this issue. Vice President Cheney and Secretary Thompson have provided leadership in this area. Dr. Tony Fauci at NIH is coordinating government, academic, and private sector scientists and, as always, is pushing the envelope of scientific knowledge forward. Unfortunately, the results to date are simply inadequate. We know that there is a list of some 57 known bioterrorism threat agents. It is my understanding that there are only two FDA-approved countermeasures to these known threats. That is correct - just two of the 57 threats have responses. And the truth of the matter is that the r&d pipeline is less than robust. That is one reason why Senator Lieberman and I have proposed bi-partisan legislation whose goal is to provide a variety of incentives designed to stimulate private sector biotechnology firms to develop new research tools, diagnostics, therapeutics and vaccines. Our legislation includes tax incentives, intellectual property incentives such as patent term restoration and extension of current marketing exclusivity periods, and up-front liability negotiations. We must not let any politically expedient anti-drug company antipathy with the attempt of the Lieberman-Hatch bill to unleash the creative genius of the private sector because that is where treatments and cures will come from. In short, we need to create a well-capitalized bio-defense industry that will respond to our needs as this threat evolves. That is the goal of the Lieberman-Hatch bill. I commend my partner, Senator Lieberman, for his vision in this critically important area. Although the year is moving along, I hope in the weeks ahead to hold a hearing on some of the novel IP and liability provisions of the Lieberman-Hatch bioterrorism bill. Mr. Secretary, I hope that the Administration will carefully review our bill and provide experts to participate in this hearing. Let me close by saying that I know that everyone on this Committee shares the common goal of protecting our country from additional terrorist attacks. And I believe we are all committed to achieving that goal with complete respect for the fundamental freedoms of the American people. This Committee has a historical tradition of examining, debating, and resolving some of the most important legal and policy issues that have been presented to Congress. We are once again faced with an important task that will have a profound impact on our country's security and liberty. I am confident we are up to the task. |

Albuquerque Homeschool Forum / Around town / Architecture Lecture~Antoine Predock
Posted by:
14 (Guest), August 27, 2006, 2:27pm
For anyone fascinated with architecture, Antoine Predock is a local 'celebrity' who has influenced the world with his awe inspiring, breathtaking projects. We first became familiar with him when we moved to Albuquerque 16 years ago and lived in the Predock designed "The Beach Apts", directly across from the ABQ Aquarium and Botanic gardens. I can't imagine living in a more unique and creatively inspiring apartment community. We often had architecture and photography students camped outside of our apartments trying to catch the best light to showcase the beautiful structures.
Predock has also designed a large number of buildings in the Albuquerque area. Below I included just a few of them, so if anyone would like, they can visit these sites and prepare to be impressed.

Zotonic: the Erlang Content Management System
Zotonic is first and foremost a content management system—that is what it says on the tin. Now that you have a running version of Zotonic, you can try out the content management features.
Point your browser at http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin. You will see a login screen, and as this is your first login, you need to set the password.
Use the login name "admin", leave the password field empty, and click Log On. You will see the create password form.
Once you have set your password, you are presented with the Zotonic admin dashboard. Down on the left-hand side is the admin menu. Much of it is straightforward, but one of the more interesting items here is modules.
In the Modules menu item, there's a list of available modules, some of them activated, others not. Activate the comments module to see the comments form appear at the bottom of your blog posts.
You can create a new blog post by creating a new page of category "article".
In the list of pages, find the home page. You also can find it by searching for "home" using the search box on the top right of the admin page.
Open this page for editing, and scroll down it until you see advanced options. Expand the advanced options section, and notice that the home page has a unique name of page_home set. This is useful for referring to this page later in your code.
Zotonic uses a modified version of Erlydtl for templating. Erlydtl is an Erlang implementation of the Django templating language.
Look in the templates folder of the default Zotonic site (priv/sites/default/templates). Here you will find a collection of .tpl files, which are templates that define the site. Templates that start with an underscore are not intended to be rendered alone, but rather can be included in another template.
Most of the templates in this directory inherit from base.tpl, which includes the site's header, menu and footer. This site uses article.tpl for displaying pages of the category "article" and uses home.tpl to display the home page.
Dispatch rules map URIs to resources. Look in the file priv/sites/default/dispatch/dispatch. The following two dispatch rules are defined:
{ home, [], resource_page, [ {template, "home.tpl"}, {id, page_home} ] }, { article, ["article", id, slug], resource_page, [ {template, "article.tpl"}, {cat, article} ] },
The first rule states that you render the page with the unique name of page_home using the template home.tpl.
The second rule says that you want to render all pages of category article to article.tpl. You also define the structure of the URL in this rule. Each article will have an address of this form: /article/id/page-name.
In both of these examples, you use resource_page to do the actual rendering. This renders a resource as an HTML page and gives you access to the ID and category of the page from the template.
Other text pages you create will be rendered to page.tpl by default.
An about page, with the unique name page_about already exists in the default Zotonic site; it is currently rendered to page.tpl. Let's try making our own template to display the about page.
Create a template in the templates directory called about.tpl, and put the following code in it:
{% extends "base.tpl" %} {% block title %} {{ m.rsc[id].title }} {% endblock %} {% block content %}
{{ m.rsc[id].title }} -- {{ m.rsc[id].summary }}

Hello, this is my about page!
 {{ m.rsc[id].body|show_media }} {% endblock %}
Add the following to your dispatch rules:
{about, ["about"], resource_page, [ {template, "about.tpl"}, {id, page_about} ] }
Stop Zotonic, and run make.
Start Zotonic again. Now, if you go to http://127.0.0.1:8000/about in your browser, you will see the text from the default about page rendered using the new template you created.
Having access to the ID of the about resource from the template, you can make calls to the database to retrieve other information to display. As you can see from the template above, I used the title (m.rsc[id].title), the summary (m.rsc[id].summary) and the body (m.rsc[id].body). I also used a "filter" called show_media to convert image markers in the body text into actual image tags for display.
Quitting Out of the Erlang Interpreter
Instead of ctrl-C + abort, the faster and cleaner way out of the erlang interpreter command prompt >:
Kind of like typing quit() at a python interpreter command prompt, but shorter and ending with a period/full stop. (Don't all good sentences end with a period? They do in Erlang.)
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

If you already use virtualized infrastructure, you are well on your way to leveraging the power of the cloud. Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.

Outlines the legal obligations of designated Federal depository libraries.
Addresses the legal obligations of designated Federal depository libraries.
Letter from public interest organizations expressing support for holding a public proceeding on the future of the open Internet.
White paper concerning the future of the Federal Depository Library Program (FDLP). ARL argues that the FDLP strategic planning process should lead to a flexible, sustainable, reconfigured program that reflects the needs and interests of users of government information and participating libraries; embraces the digital networked environment; and importantly, encourages collaborative network-based services while ensuring a smooth and orderly transition to a new program framework.
Discusses the need to identify a sustainable framework that will provide access to and preservation of government information in the years ahead.
Opinion concerning the sections of Title 44 of the United States Code that would require legislative modifications in order to allow for the sharing of resources and responsibilities among the nation's federal regional depository libraries.
In October 2001, the U.S. Geological Survey requested that the Government Printing Office instruct Federal Depository Libraries that received a CD-ROM on characteristics of large surface-water supplies in the United States to destroy their copies. Shortly thereafter, the Superintendent of Documents ordered those libraries participating in the Federal Depository Library Program to withdraw this item and immediately destroy it. Subsequently, the Federal Bureau of Investigation visited several Federal Depository Libraries to determine whether that order had been carried out. This occurred without consultation with the GPO or the Geological Survey (U.S.G.S.). This series of events, and the prospect that in the wake of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attack there may be additional requests for removal or destruction of federal materials by Federal Depository Libraries (FDLs), raises a number of questions of interest and importance to librarians. This memorandum sets forth below, in a question-and-answer format, the answers to many of those questions.
These comments on the GPO Summary Report: Digitization Demonstration Project are submitted on behalf of the Association of Research Libraries to commend the GPO for engaging in the pilot digitization project.
Letter from ARL in support of the addition of $2 million in the FY 2008 Senate, State, Foreign Operations and Related Program appropriations bill.

It looks good in the pictures but it's built super cheaply and is really ino different than what you'd see in Ikea for like 80 bucks. A total ripoff for the asking price.
This is a well made bookcase with great style and quality. I wanted something that could hold a lot of my stuff but also not look like a square box. This has great style and design. There is ample room on each shelf and it's deep. Assembly was quick and easy
We bought this bookcase for our bedroom. It arrived quickly, in perfect condition (they bubble wrapped the OUTSIDE of the box), and with all the pieces and parts we needed. Assembly was easy, and it's sturdy enough that we can put our mid-size LCD tv on top of it without worrying.
I bought two of this bookcase, I was so excited to waiting its arrive. But when I opened the box saw the qualities ,I was so disappointed. Considered would course so much trouble to return I still kept in my house. The quality is like Ikea style ,cheap looking. It's so overpriced !!!!!!!!!
I think this bookcase is very good looking for the price point. It is MDF and does require full assembly...but I found the instructions easy to understand and the product easy to put together. However, it would have been nice to know that you are assembling the product "upside down" before getting to the end of the instructions. It was quite a pain to have to turn it over once it was all done. All in all...would recommend this to a friend and actually came back and ordered another one.

Twenty-nine Joseph Emerson Brown Middle School students were taken to Children's at Hughes-Spalding after complaints of itching Monday.
Firefighters evacuated the entire third floor of the building where science classes are held.
One student had a reaction which caused itching, according to officials.
Fire crews arrived to the scene and found the entire classroom with the same symptom.
The Atlanta Fire Department said the students' parents have been notified and air samples were collected and came back negative.
The cause is still being investigated by APS Emergency Response team and Atlanta Fire.

NASA to Webcast Lyrid meteor shower Monday night
The Lyrid meteor shower is peaking right now, and NASA wants to make sure you don't miss this once-a-year space fireworks show.
Mindful that some stargazers may not have optimum viewing conditions because of local weather conditions or the moon's glow, NASA has set up a camera at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., to broadcast live images of the meteor shower.
"If you'd like to catch a last look at 2013 Lyrid meteror shower, this is your chance!" NASA said in a statement. "Although a bright moon may interfere with viewing, … Read more

Congenital heart disease can last into adulthood, but it's always present at birth. Caused by an early developmental problem with the heart's structure and function, it typically interferes with proper blood flow through the heart and may affect breathing. With today's more advanced treatments and proper follow-up care, many infants who once would have died of congenital heart disease are able to survive well into adulthood.
Congenital heart disease is caused by a congenital heart defect. Often, the two terms are used interchangeably. According to the March of Dimes, one in 125 babies born in the United States has a congenital heart defect. In fact, these are the most common type of all birth defects. Although doctors sometimes don't know the cause of the heart defect, suspected causes include:
- genetics: the defect may run in families
- medications: some drugs taken during pregnancy can increase the risk, such as anti-seizure medications
- alcohol or drug abuse during pregnancy
- infections: if the mother had a viral infection in the first trimester, it may increase the risk of giving birth to a child with a heart defect
- diabetes: may affect childhood development. Gestational diabetes so far hasn't been linked to congenital heart disease
Though there are many different types of congenital heart defects, they can be condensed into three main categories:
- Heart valve defects. The valves inside the heart that direct blood flow may close up or leak so that the heart can't pump blood correctly.
- Heart wall defects. The natural walls that exist between the left and right side and the upper and lower chambers of the heart may not develop correctly, allowing blood to back up into the heart or pool where it doesn't belong. The defect puts pressure on the heart to work harder and may result in high blood pressure.
- Blood vessel defects. The arteries and veins that carry blood to the heart and back out to the body may not function correctly, blocking or slowing blood flow.
Many doctors classify congenital heart defects into two types: those that result in low oxygen levels and those that don't. Babies who suffer from breathlessness or whose skin turns a bluish tint aren't getting enough blood because the heart isn't pumping as it should. This is called "cyanotic heart disease." Babies who have enough oxygen but later suffer from high blood pressure or other signs of a heart working too hard have "acyanotic heart disease."
Symptoms and Risk Factors
A congenital heart defect may often be detected by an ultrasound during pregnancy. When a doctor hears a heart murmur, for instance, they may further investigate with tests like an echocardiogram, chest X-ray, or MRI. If a diagnosis is made, the doctor will have the appropriate specialists on hand during delivery. Early symptoms of a congenital heart defect include:
- bluish lips, skin, fingers, and toes
- breathlessness or trouble breathing
- feeding difficulties (baby seems uninterested in nursing)
- small birth weight
- low oxygen levels or fainting
- chest pain
- delayed growth
Sometimes—particularly in acyanotic heart disease where the baby is getting enough oxygen—symptoms won't show up until many years later. In this case, symptoms may include:
- abnormal heart rhythms
- dizziness
- trouble breathing
- fainting
- swelling of the organs or body tissues
- low oxygen levels
- easily fatigued
Treatment for a congenital heart defect depends on the type and severity of the defect. Some babies have mild heart defects that heal on their own with time. Some may need to be treated with medications. Others may require one or more heart surgeries. These may include: catheter procedures, open-heart surgeries or—in the most severe cases—a heart transplant.
Congenital Heart Disease in Adults
Depending on the defect, diagnosis and treatment may proceed shortly after birth, during childhood, or not until adulthood. Some defects present no symptoms until the person becomes an adult, and therefore aren't treated until then. In these cases, symptoms of a newly discovered congenital heart defect may include:
- shortness of breath
- chest pain
- reduced ability to exercise (early fatigue)
As with treatment in children, adult treatment varies from watchful waiting to medications and surgeries. Defects that may have been treated in childhood may present problems again in adulthood. The original repair may no longer be effective or the initial defect may become worse with time. Scar tissue that developed around the original repair may end up causing problems like arrhythmias. Sometimes a defect that was "mild" in childhood and required no treatment may worsen later.
Regardless of the situation, everyone with congenital disease should continue to go to their cardiologist for follow-up care. Treatments for congenital heart disease aren't cures. They're merely repairs to help the patient live a normal life. The risk for complications like high blood pressure in the lungs, heart infections, stroke, heart failure, is higher in those with congenital heart defects, so it's best to maintain regular visits with a doctor who has experience in this type of heart disease.
Women who are pregnant can take certain precautions to lower their risk of giving birth to a baby with a congenital heart defect:
- If you're planning on become pregnant, talk to your doctor about any medications you're taking.
- Avoid alcohol and illegal drugs during pregnancy.
- If you have diabetes, make sure your blood sugar levels are under control before becoming pregnant and work with your doctor to manage the disease while pregnant.
- If you weren't vaccinated against rubella (German measles), avoid exposure to the disease and talk to your doctor about prevention options.

Ecover Automatic Dishwasher Powder is the best dishwasher detergent I have used, and that includes supermarket brands. The reason you got my business is because the local Whole Foods stopped carrying it, choosing the pricier option of dishwasher tablets. As long as you carry this detergent, I'll buy it!

The Fire Scene: "Conforming": Teaching Our New Members to Excel
To access the remainder of this piece of premium content, you must be registered with Firehouse. Already have an account? Login
Register in seconds by connecting with your preferred Social Network.
Complete the registration form.
The word "conforming" often carries a negative or restrictive connotation. Many people think of conforming as a surrender of their own ideas or behaviors in favor of those of another person or group. When I use the word conforming relative to firefighters, I am talking about a positive and effective way of introducing new firefighters to the fire department and how we operate. Let's look at the many ways firefighters conform to fit into and excel in the fire service.
When new firefighters enter the FDNY, for example, they are exposed to a host of rituals and traditions. Yes, all of the firehouses are part of the same department, but they are not all the same – a new firefighter assigned to an engine company in the Bronx may be "broken in" differently than a firefighter assigned to a ladder company in Brooklyn.
Off to a good start
It all starts at the fire academy, where the entire group is exposed to a new culture and work experience. New firefighters receive the mandated department training and the other information they need to get a solid start in the FDNY. But what happens when they are assigned to their new companies?
When a new class of probies has graduated from the fire academy, they are given assignments and are required to report to their new companies to "check in" and familiarize themselves with their new job. The companies are notified that new probies are coming and so the stage is set for the first of many days of conforming. When the probies arrive, they are usually grilled by the first few members they meet. These first, unofficial discussions usually include questions about where the probies worked before being hired by the FDNY and whether they are married, can play softball or cook or have any trade skills such as electrician, carpenter or mechanic.
After the preliminaries, the members usually tell the probies how fortunate they are to be assigned to their companies or they may ask if the probie has any family on the job. About this time, the members will usually inform the officer on duty that the new probie has arrived. The probie will be summoned to the office for the official greeting. The officer will ask more questions and then inform the probie about "the way we do things around here." The process of conforming has begun.
It is policy in just about every company I worked in that firefighters in general, and probies in particular, arrive at the firehouse about an hour before their shift started. This is usually a departure from any previous job a probie had, but it is made clear that this is a requirement. Probies who arrive for work early have plenty of time to check their equipment and take care of any last-minute adjustments.
After being told by the officer when to report for the first shift, the probie is often sent back downstairs to learn more about the company and the firehouse routine from the on-duty firefighters. From this point on, a probie can spend three or four hours being shown around the firehouse. If four or five firefighters are working that day, each will have something of importance to tell the probie. The list of "do this" and "don't do that" usually includes:
• Always be the first person in for the shift; if a senior member usually arrives early, you arrive earlier
• Always wear the proper uniform
• Check the apparatus every shift, and this means check every tool in every compartment, on every shift
• Become familiar with the broom and mop closet, because you will be the person using those tools every shift (other firefighters mop too, but not as much as the probie)
• Don't tell us what you know, show us – everyone likes a sharp probie
• Learn about the company; know that we are the best and don't forget it.
• You shouldn't be seen sitting or otherwise relaxing, ever; if you are sitting, it should be at the housewatch desk where you can read department training manuals and learn how to receive and acknowledge alarms

Book Description:[This is the Audiobook CASSETTE Library Edition in vinyl case.] In our age of depersonalization, Frankl teaches the value of living to the fullest. Upon his death in 1997, Viktor E. Frankl was lauded as one of the most influential thinkers of our time. The Unheard Cry for Meaning marked his return to the humanism that made Man's Search for Meaning a bestseller around the world. In these selected essays, written between 1947 and 1977, Dr. Frankl illustrates the vital importance of the human dimension in psychotherapy. Using a wide range of subjects--including sex, morality, modern literature, competitive athletics, and philosophy--he raises a lone voice against the pseudo-humanism that has invaded popular psychology and psychoanalysis. By exploring mankind's remarkable qualities, he brilliantly celebrates each individual's unique potential, while preserving the invaluable traditions of both Freudian analysis and behaviorism.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
"I originally chose a different design for my wedding programs, table cards, etc., but that design didn't have green menu cards so I ordered this style instead. The staff at Wedding Paper Divas was kind enough to adjust the coloring of the letters to make this design look closer to the rest of my order. The result? A beautiful, cohesive look that impressed my guests. I highly recommend Wedding Paper Divas!"
"I ordered these menu cards for my wedding on May 4, 2012. I received them in approx one week. I chose a custom color and it was perfect. The color was exactly as it appeared online. The paper weight is ideal. My guests found the tag line on the bottom very cute. I would definitely recommend these to any bride to be."
"I chose to use orange as the primary background color, since my reception colors are orange and purple. The paper is great the design and printing is beautiful. I got exactly what I saw online! Everything is perfect I am so happy! Thank you wedding paper diva's! Plus the order delivery was one day before the estimated delivery date!"
"I'm having a sit down family-style reception so there was no need for all the headings. I was not able to do the online preview because my text did not fit the online template, but I emailed the copy as a Word document with my order and the designer took care of everything. Changes were easily made and when I had a question, my designer returned my call immediately."

DURHAM -- A Durham police operation targeting street-level drug trafficking has resulted in the arrest of 58 suspects.
Members of Durham's Drug Enforcement Unit spent three months on Project Michigan, working undercover to target specific areas and suspects identified through public complaints.
During the course of the investigation, cops executed 19 search warrants, busting 58 suspects on 283 charges and seizing drugs with an estimated street value of $47,000.
The majority of those arrested were Oshawa residents; also charged were residents of Ajax, Clarington, and Brock Township, as well as York Region and the GTA.
The operation saw drugs including cocaine, marijuana, heroin, hydromorphone and various opiate pain killers seized, police said. View the list of charges in this document.

Three trails in two days
For many, running one race a year is enough to suit their athletic drive. But for runners participating in the Duluth Trail Festival, three races in two days is more their cup of tea.
For many, running one race a year is enough to suit their athletic drive. But for runners participating in the Duluth Trail Festival, three races in two days is more their cup of tea.
In its third year, the Trail Fest offers runners the opportunity to explore a variety of terrains.
"This is not your typical race," Clayton Keim, one of the directors, told the Budgeteer. "There are breathtaking views and lots of challenges, like climbing rocks and tackling creek crossings."
Between the three races taking place on August 25 and 26, runners are faced with the challenge of beach running, the Chester Bowl ski jump hill, and a 15K on the rocky terrain of the Superior Hiking Trail.
"The most memorable part of the fest for me was the 15K," Tiffany Carlson, the female overall winner from two years ago, told the Budgeteer. "It was just amazing running through the trails."
"The runs are pretty technical, they're not easy, but they're doable," Keim said.
If three races sounds like too much of a challenge, participants can sign up for just one or two of their choosing.
"Some people participate in the run because they like the challenge and want to win," co-director Dick Haney told the Budgeteer. "But others do it to test themselves or to maintain their fitness and wellness."
Whatever the motivation to participate, it's all tied together with the camaraderie of the people who enter the races, he said.
"People who participate will have no regrets when they complete it, especially when they tackle all three courses," Carlson said. "It's remarkable how much the body can handle."
Besides the people involved, nature provides something to behold while running through the race courses.
"Runners get a chance to experience different vegetation within the parks," Haney said. "The event features some of the green space in Duluth that is relatively untouched."
"Each day offers a different venue," Carlson said. "Not a lot of 5K events are on such beautiful courses; Trail Fest is like no other race."
The festival starts Saturday with two 5Ks. The first race takes place on Park Point at 10 a.m. next to the airport, and the Chester Tester Hill Challenge starts at 5:30 p.m. at the chalet.
The weekend finishes off on Sunday with a 15K. That race starts at 10 a.m. with race-day registration and pick-up at the Lake Superior Zoo from 8:30 to 9:30 a.m. Athletes will be bused to the race start at the Ely's Peak lot.
For those not interested in running, volunteers are still needed to help at water stations and at the finish line. For more information about registration and awards and to sign up to volunteer, visit www.duluthtrailfestival.com

Priests From Other Nations Learn to Adjust to Life, Ministry in US
Beth Griffin
Catholic News Service
Thursday, June 17, 2010
JAMAICA, N.Y. (CNS)—Priests who have come from other countries to serve in the United States "cannot assimilate totally into American culture," but the more they can, the better they "can serve the people," according to Msgr. John O'Brien, a Brooklyn pastor.
"The more you can participate in the life of the people, the richer your experience will be," he told participants at the 10th annual Acculturation Seminar for International Priests.
Msgr. O'Brien was one of more than 20 speakers at the program held June 7-11 at St. John's University in Queens. It was organized by the Vincentian Center for Church and Society.
Sister Margaret John Kelly, a Daughter of Charity who is the executive director of the Vincentian Center, told Catholic News Service this year's seminar is a reflection of the global church. There were 38 participants from 14 countries now serving in five U.S. dioceses.
"You really see the richness and unity of the church," Sister Kelly said. "We're prepared for moving globalization from the economic level to a much higher human and religious level."
The Vincentian residential acculturation program is one of three in the country, according to Sister Kelly. The others are at the Oblate School of Theology in San Antonio and Loyola Marymount in Los Angeles. Some dioceses also operate programs for international priests serving locally, she said.
The Vincentian seminar was established in response to "Guidelines for Receiving Pastoral Ministers," a 1999 statement of the U.S. bishops' Committee on Migration, she said. In the context of the program, acculturation is understood as a process of coming to know and accept the roles, norms and values of a different culture and function effectively and comfortably there while maintaining one's cultural identity.
The speakers covered myriad topics including church development in the United States; anthropological, sociological, psychological, legal and immigration issues; pastoral and interpersonal communications; financial management; and the role of the priest as leader, team member and collaborator.
Sister Kelly said there is more scrutiny of international priests before they arrive than there was in the past, when arrangements made with them to serve in the United States were more casual.
Nevertheless, she said, "education of international priests has not gotten the attention of the receiving dioceses" and acculturation programs have not been well attended. But she said several dioceses now require priests from other countries to attend such a program before they can be incardinated into the diocese in which they are ministering.
Sister Kelly said, "Some people are uncomfortable being a 'receiving' church, which is a fallacy, because the church in this country was built by international priests and over the years, we have brought in many more missionaries than we have sent out."
At least 16 percent of active U.S. priests are foreign-born, according to a 2000 survey by the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate at Georgetown University.
Sister Kelly said communication and cultural differences are the two biggest hurdles for international priests. Speakers said those areas intersect in preaching, because U.S. Catholics value clarity and brevity.
"When you get into a church here and people can't understand you, you are from Mars. The tolerance level is different here," said Msgr. Ronald Marino, who is director of the Brooklyn diocesan Catholic Migration Office and vicar for migrant and ethnic apostolates.
"You might preach like St. Dominic or St. Anthony in your home country, but you will be more valuable than St. Anthony here if you are a brief preacher," he said.
Msgr. Ralph Sommer, a pastor from the Rockville Centre Diocese, suggested that priests with heavy accents take an accent reduction class. He said it is difficult for listeners to be evangelized or moved by the witness of a priest they cannot understand.
He said it is better to give a short clear homily of eight minutes than to go "on and on" for 20 minutes and alienate the congregation.
Msgr. O'Brien said priests must learn to speak English well to relate to the children of immigrants. This is particularly urgent in multiethnic dioceses, where a single parish may serve immigrants from many countries, he said.
Sister Kelly said cultural challenges faced by priests from other countries range from looking people in the eye to collaborating with well-educated women. Some are surprised by the number of poor people in the United States or by the weakness of the family unit in some places, she said.
The program's speakers offered practical advice based on experience as both hosts and newcomers. They urged participants to ask questions in their new assignments. Father Sommer said, "As a sign of respect and welcome, I may presume you know what to do, and think I'm being paternalistic if I tell you, but that could be a disaster. Always ask!"
Msgr. Marino said international priests are "a gift of the Holy Spirit to the church in the United States. I view your presence here as part of God's plan for the church in the U.S."
"You are very much appreciated and in my mind you're heroic for giving up your family and your food and making a great sacrifice for this crazy American experience," Msgr. Sommer said.
Father Theo Trujillo, a Colombian serving in Charleston, S.C., since 2005, told Catholic News Service the seminar "is a great opportunity to know more about this amazing culture and be more aware of how to interact properly. It's a very rich experience to share this with other international priests."

For anyone that doesn't know me, I'm currently the #1 ranked raw all-time female powerlifter. My best lifts in competition are: 615lbs. squat, 415lbs. bench press, and 580lbs. deadlift, for a 1610lbs. total (belt and wrist wraps only) at 254lbs. bodyweight in the shw class. I post on here every so often and mostly follow my friend Brian Hopper's training, since I used to train in Lakeland where he does.
I know this post is really a blatant promotion for my new website. Check it out: http://mathistrainingsolutions.com/
But, understand that all proceeds from this website go back into the sport of powerlifting. Some of the money will be used for me to travel to meets (I have only competed near where I live because of this factor). I also would like to pay for all of my training partners who would like to compete in and travel with myself to the women's pro-am being held by Laura Phelps on 04/14/2012 in Cincinnati, Ohio. If the site goes well, I also am going to donate money to the next women's pro-am meet and help offer prize money at the next meet we hold in Georgia so that lifters can have something more than a plastic trophy for their accomplishments.
So, if you are interested in what I have to offer, check out the website. I will also have products for sale in the very near future (stuff made and sold by powerlifters) and will be adding another top powerlifting (geared and raw) and strongman competitor to my site in the next week.
Thanks for reading and before you make fun of this as just another site to sell training programs, remember that all the money goes back into the sport, not just in my pocket like some people do. Contact me with any questions (please note: This is a serious post and I will not respond to sarcastic or insulting comments, so don't act childish).
P.S. I do not think this violates the Terms of Use for this site, because I am not currently selling anything similar to or in conflict with what you are promoting (At Large nutrition products) on this site. So I apologize if it does.
Best competition lifts:
650lbs. raw squat
441lbs. raw bench
580lbs. raw deadlift
1650lbs. raw total
That's just crazy!!! Your numbers I mean. I knew you were strong as hell but I didn't know until I read this pot you have a 610 belt only squat or the 580 pull. Damm!!!!
April is the real deal! I've competed with her and judged her and her intensity rivals anyone I've seen! You can almost see fire in her eyes when she attacks the weight! I love watching her lift! April, I like your idea for the site! I hope it's very successful for you! Good luck and tell Big Jon hello!

Let me know if you want me to put anything up on my website for you - products or affiliate links or anything like that. Just send me a private message if interested. I'm almost done with the lastest update and will have about 30-40 products listed tomorrow. And I only want to put things that are actually effective, not bs stuff like 3/4 of what you see in gnc or vitamin shoppe or many sites online.
Best competition lifts:
650lbs. raw squat
441lbs. raw bench
580lbs. raw deadlift
1650lbs. raw total
Haha yeah I actually don't get much out of a slingshot, only 30lbs. or so. I always bring the bar down slow, so it's not as helpful to doing more weight than if you bring the bar down fast or bounce it. Some people doing that are getting 100lbs. out of it. I also have an old one that was one of the original kind though, so that may be a difference too compared to the newer ones.
Best competition lifts:
650lbs. raw squat
441lbs. raw bench

There is a big difference. The old ones stretched out really fast. The new ones are thicker and made from a different material (I'm not talking about a Mad Dog, just the regular slingshot). I've got one of those original ones too---the thin red ones. 30-60 lbs sounds about right for it.
Finally ELITE @ SHW..
Single ply: 931 squat, 760 bench, 530 deadlift and 2180 total
Multi ply: 960 squat, 770 bench, 550 deadlift and 2250 total.

Sweating is a great way to meet new people, and Sports Monster has proved that since it started its first adult league in 1994. With year-round offerings that include volleyball, kickball, soccer, bowling, and other sports, interested kickers, hitters, and dribblers can sign up solo or with a fully formed team of friends or coworkers. Games take place all around the St. Louis area. With many nights available, participants can choose a time and location that best suits them. Annual members of Sports Monster leagues get an additional perk: free online dating opportunities with other league members, the only facet of the experience that doesn't offer any season-end trophies.
Demolition Ball - Adrenaline Zone's inventive twist on team sports challenges players, daring groups of kids and corporate staff alike. In demolition ball, teams face off in a game that blends bumper-car crashing and lacrosse-like ball handling. As they veer into oncoming opponents and shoot goals to the beat of pulsing music and sound effects, live referees provide commentary on action-packed plays and each player's hairstyle. For a dose of on-foot competition, up to three teams can battle in the power-plant-themed laser-tag arena, where players target opponents with laser beams while darting between slate-gray barriers, hoping their foes will be disoriented by the flashing strobe lights. Players test their sneaking skills in The Heist—a museum-themed maze—dodging trip lasers as they attempt to steal a replica of the Mona Lisa without waking a sleeping Leonardo da Vinci.
Forest Lake Tennis Club's experienced tennis pros refine serves and strokes on their eight indoor, air-conditioned courts. A tennis pro diagnoses your stroke for the first hour of the clinic, tinkering with your form and process. For the last half hour, racket raisers can test their newfound ability to defeat challengers with topspins, slices, and smashes that provide a more definitive ending to a match than the time Duke Evers knocked out Rocky Balboa with his autobiography. The clinic is geared toward advanced-beginner adult players, and classes hold a maximum of 32 adults, with a student-to-pro ratio of six to one. Throttle pea-green projectiles Tuesdays–Thursdays from 6 p.m. to 7:30 pm.
Unlike summer etiquette lessons or math camp, four days of baseball keep kids active and healthy while teaching them social skills and confidence. Whether or not kids go on to become players, they'll learn the importance of sportsmanship as the friendly instructors make each day fun. Balls-n-Strikes pairs one certified instructor to every six kids. This ensures that the game will not have to go into the 16th inning before your child gets a chance to bat, and also removes the need to make up additional outfield positions such as "assistant to the regional shortstop" and "human foul pole."

Even I'm jealous of your connection Doonz.
But to be honest when I first got on the 250/15 I wasn't happy with the speeds I was receiving. I was basically capping off at 14MB/s. SO i fired up a ram drive to see if the bottle neck was the mechanical drives and it was.
So that didn't work the way I thought it would.......Anyway, a lot of people probably don't realize how limiting disc speed is. I work for the local municipal government, and we have a fairly large fiber MAN (as well as a lot of leased TLS/VPLS from Shaw), and to qualify fiber, as well as typical OTDR and loss tests, we use two laptops running Knoppix (any live distro would do) to do FTP transfers over it. With files loaded directly into RAM we can get pretty close to a full Gb/s between even some fairly old laptops. This lets us move a lot of traffic to look for errors on interfaces and such as well.Also, Glasnnost is another app to test for shaping/throttling»broadband.mpi-sws.org/transparen···test.php
Except even most fairly recent laptop drives can sustain a 30 MB/s write speed in Windows. I have 2 laptops that are 3 and 4 yrs old. The 3 yr old can hold around 33 MB/s and the 4 yr old budget laptop can handle around 25 MB/s.Even my NAS with a 1 GHz embedded SoC can handle > 30 MB/s write.
take your pick...»www.tomshardware.com/reviews/500···0-8.htmlthe numbers quoted are very typical speeds for 4 year old laptop hard drives... as shown in the charts.

By DELANIA TRIGG, Register Staff Writer
Gainesville Daily Register
Woodbine —
Like most Chihuahuas, Irwin likes to lie in the sun.
He loves ice cream, asparagus and chicken legs and is fiercely protective of his owners.
He's feels safe when he burrows under a soft blanket.
Unlike most dogs, Irwin was born without front legs.
His three littermates were perfectly formed. Only Irwin inherited the birth defect.
His owners, Donna and Tim Day have loved and taken care of Irwin for eight years. They said Irwin's story isn't a tale of suffering or sadness, and they don't believe their decision to raise him was particularly noble. For Donna Day, giving Irwin a chance to live was an act of decency and kindness.
"When he was born my mom called me crying," Donna Day said. "My dad wanted to euthanize him and I said, 'Put Dad on the phone.'"
Like the character Fern in the classic children's book "Charlotte's Web," Donna pleaded Irwin's case.
She said she would raise him, help him adapt, love him no matter what. Her father relented but even Donna wasn't sure she was making the right decision.
"We didn't know what kind of quality of life he would have," she said.
Still, she and her husband Tim took the puppy home.
They got up at night with him, caring for him as if he were an infant.
They named the little dog Irwin for Steve Irwin the late Animal Planet personality who died after an encounter with a sting ray.
"We thought Irwin would be a good name for him," Donna Day said. "Steve Irwin loved animals so much."
Things are difficult for Irwin but he's devised methods for getting around. He walks on his hind legs, a kind of toddling gait that gets him where he wants to go.
Tim Day said he decided against making a prosthetic device such as a wheeled cart to give Irwin more mobility.
"I was afraid it would put stress on his hip and cause him pain," he said. "Chihuahuas have problems with their hips going out of place anyway."
Like many small dogs, Irwin's spirit belies his diminutive size.
"If chickens or the neighbor dog comes up on the porch he chases them away," Donna Day said.
When someone he doesn't know walks into the Day's home, Irwin barks a little and watches the visitor. He's wary of strangers but devoted to Tim and Donna.
His disability isn't much of an issue but there are things he can't do. Stairs are difficult for Irwin.
"He fell down the back porch steps when he was real little and now he won't try that anymore," Tim Day said. "He can go up them but he won't go down."
Difficulties aside, Irwin has lived a good life, Donna Day pointed out.
"He's been deer hunting and goes fishing every year," she said. "On Halloween he gets dressed up. He's just like any other dog. He doesn't know he has a disability."
In addition to Irwin, the Day's Woodbine home has become a haven for various animals.
The couple raises Boston terriers and are also caregivers to disabled pets including Candy, an elderly, blind Chihuahua with hip problems.
The couple rescued another family pet — Molly — after the Chihuahua spent the first part of her life confined to a closet.
"The first day we got her she took off," Donna Day said. "It was a while before she warmed up to us."
The couple also gave sanctuary to a one-legged pigeon and a rabbit born without legs.
Donna Day said she's surprised when someone asks her why she chose to raise Irwin.
"You would be amazed at the people who say 'You should've put him down,'" she said. "But he's brought us so much joy."
Resting in Tim Day's arms, Irwin snuggles — his eyes half closed in the morning sunlight. His expression is one animal lovers know well — a mixture of love and unmistakable gratitude.
