The biggest road win in the conference race was Indiana earning a solid road win against the Buckeyes. But they were upset against Illinois, so that's somewhat a wash. Only other conference road wins were Purdue over PSU, MSU over Purdue, and Illinois over Minnesota. Michigan can get right back to the top of the race with a road win in the Breslin Center this Tuesday night during rivalry week.

Power Rankings
LAST WEEK: Won vs Minnesota (61-50), Won at Purdue (78-65)
THIS WEEK: vs Michigan (Tuesday), at Nebraska (Saturday)
I had the Spartans fourth in these rankings last week, and now they're at the top by default. The other four Big Ten contenders all split games with each other, while Michigan State was able to take care of business against two middle-of-the-pack teams. They have a monster showdown with in-state rival Michigan at home on Tuesday. With a 3-game stretch of vs Indiana, @ Ohio State, and @ Michigan following this week, the Spartans would be wise to hold serve at home against the Wolverines.
LAST WEEK: Lost at Illinois (72-74), Won at Ohio State (81-68)
THIS WEEK: vs Nebraska (Wednesday), vs Purdue (Saturday)
The Hoosiers inexplicably blew a double-digit lead in Illinois, losing on an embarrassing blown assignment on defense that allowed Tyler Griffey of all people to cement his place in Illinois basketball history. The Hoosiers did bounce back admirably with a complete performance in Columbus yesterday, however. They shouldn't be challenged this week, but their last five games will be significantly harder.
LAST WEEK: Won vs Ohio State (76-74 OT), Lost at Wisconsin (62-65 OT)
THIS WEEK: at Michigan State (Tuesday), vs Penn State (Sunday)
Michigan had quite the week, participating in two of the best games so far in the college basketball season. They were able to pull it out at home against the Buckeyes, but couldn't win at the Kohl Center yet again. Their brutal four game stretch ends with an in-state trip to East Lansing Tuesday. It's their last imposing road-trip in the Big Ten, however, and if they could pull off the victory, they could be the team to beat down the stretch.
LAST WEEK: Won vs Iowa (74-70 2OT), Won vs Michigan (65-62 OT)
THIS WEEK: at Minnesota (Thursday), vs Ohio State (Sunday)
It might've taken three extra overtime periods, but the magic of Kohl Center yielded two more nice wins for Wisconsin. Ben Brust's miracle will live on forever for sure, but it helps Bo Ryan remain in the hunt for his 12th straight, top-4 finish in the Big Ten. Interesting road game at the Barn this week against a Minnesota team with their backs against the wall.
LAST WEEK: Lost at Michigan (74-76 OT), Lost vs Indiana (68-81)
THIS WEEK: vs Northwestern (Thursday), at Wisconsin (Sunday)
The Buckeyes were quietly going about their business entering this week and were in position to really make a charge at the top this past week. But they lost a heart-breaker in Michigan and weren't able to rebound against the Hoosiers at home. Suddenly it seems the Buckeyes don't have a prayer for the championship. They have an opportunity to make a statement in Madison next weekend though.
LAST WEEK: Won vs Indiana (74-72), Won at Minnesota (57-53)
THIS WEEK: vs Purdue (Wednesday), at Northwestern (Sunday)
Not sure any team had as big of a week as the Illini, who suddenly revived their NCAA hopes with the huge upset of #1 Indiana at home. Just as important though, they avoided a letdown and got a quality road win in Minnesota. They have a great chance this week to solidify their postseason hopes.
LAST WEEK: Lost at Wisconsin (70-74 2OT), Won vs Northwestern (71-57)
THIS WEEK: at Penn State (Thursday), vs Minnesota (Sunday)
The Hawkeyes really could've gotten right back into the thick of the NCAAs if they were able to pull off the upset in Madison. Instead they lost a heart-breaker in double overtime, leaving themselves some work to do. They still have a favorable schedule down the stretch with two winnable games this week.
LAST WEEK: Lost at Michigan State (50-61), Lost vs Illinois (53-57)
THIS WEEK: vs Wisconsin (Thursday), at Iowa (Sunday)
The Golden Gophers have continued their struggles after a good start in the league play. They've lost 6 of their last 8 and suffered an inexcusable loss yesterday at the Barn to the Illini. Their inconsistency on offense is maddening as they weren't able to score 60 points in either of their losses this week. It's up to Tubby Smith to get his team turned around before it's too late.
LAST WEEK: Won at Penn State (58-49), Lost vs Michigan State (65-78)
THIS WEEK: at Illinois (Wednesday), at Indiana (Saturday)
The Boilermakers briefly ended their slump in State College, but weren't able to stay with MSU at home. They shot just 1-15 from behind the arc this week as a team. Two tough road-trips upcoming for Matt Painter's team is not what the doctor ordered.
LAST WEEK: Lost at Iowa (57-71)
THIS WEEK: at Ohio State (Thursday), vs Illinois (Sunday)
Bill Carmody's team wasn't able to use the extra rest during the week to steal a road win in Iowa City. Matters got worse as the Wildcats' front-court suffered two big injuries to C Alex Olah (possible concussion) and PF Jared Swopshire (right leg injury).
LAST WEEK: Won vs Penn State (67-53)
THIS WEEK: at Indiana (Wednesday), vs Michigan State (Saturday)
The Cornhuskers had this past week off until their Saturday night win over lowly Penn State. Pray for them this week as they face the two conference leaders at the moment.
LAST WEEK: Lost vs Purdue (49-58), Lost at Nebraska (53-67)
THIS WEEK: vs Iowa (Thursday), at Michigan (Sunday)
It was another week full of 'welp' for the Nittany Lions, as they really didn't show up and take advantage of their best remaining opportunities for a conference win. Pressure's on from here on out as that's the only interest remaining with this team.

[JURIST] Japanese defense minister Yasukazu Hamada [official profile] on Wednesday ordered [press release] the country's Maritime Self-Defense Force [official website] to prepare to travel to the waters surrounding Somalia to combat piracy in the region, despite concerns that combat could be prohibited by the country's constitution. Hamada has said the plan is designed to protect the country's commercial interests, but opposition lawmakers are concerned the move violates the Renunciation of War [text] chapter of the the country's 1946 constitution. The scope of the forces' authorization to engage the pirates, especially if they are found attacking a non-Japanese ships, remains unclear [Daily Yomiuri report] given other limiting articles of the Self-Defense Forces Law [materials] governing the mission.In December, the UN Office on Drugs and Crime (ODC) [official website] called for greater judicial cooperation in combating piracy [JURIST report] off the Horn of Africa. Given the difficulty of prosecuting suspects in their home countriesSomalia is ranked among the world's most corrupt [JURIST report]the UNODC has suggested that countries in the region with more stable governments, like Djibouti, Kenya and Tanzania, conduct the trials. The UN Security Council's unanimous approval of Resolution 1838 [text, PDF; press release] allowed cooperating states to enter territorial waters and use whatever means they deemed necessary to suppress piracy.
[JURIST] Former Malawi President Bakili Muluzi [BBC profile] will likely be tried for corruption after the country's Supreme Court of Appeal Tuesday struck down an injunction that had stalled the investigation into his alleged theft of international aid money. Muluzi contends that the charges are political, as he intends to seek a third, non-consecutive term in the country's May elections. Last week, President Bingu wa Mutharika [government website] urged the national election commission to reject [Nyasa Times report] Muluzi's filing papers on the grounds that the constitution [text, PDF] bars him from serving a third term.Both Muluzi and Mutharika have been accused of corruption [JURIST report] in the past. Muluzi served as president from 1994 until 2004. As the country's constitution precluded him from serving a third consecutive term, Mutharika became his hand-picked successor. Mutharika later defected from Muluzi's Democratic Front party to form his own Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) [official website].
[JURIST] The US Senate Judiciary Committee [official website] voted 17-2 Wednesday to approve the nomination of Eric Holder [professional profile] to serve as Attorney General. Holder won the approval of all the Democrats on the committee, as well as some of the Republicans, including ranking Republican committee member Senator Arlen Specter (R-PA) [official website]. The two dissenting votes were cast by Republican Senators John Cornyn (R-TX) and Tom Coburn (R-OK) [official websites]. Specter said [press release] Tuesday, "I think that Mr. Holder is entitled to the benefit of the doubt in the context of the excellent record that he has and those recommendations weighed against the issues which were of concern to me." Committee chairman Senator Patrick Leahy (D-VT) [official website] responded [press release] to Specter's declaration of support, saying, "I am glad that Senator Specter has resolved his concerns and will support Eric Holders nomination to be the next Attorney General." Holder's confirmation will now to go a vote before the entire Senate.Earlier this month, Holder told the committee [JURIST report] in confirmation hearings [materials; transcript] that he believes waterboarding [JURIST news archive] constitutes torture. Then-President-elect Barack Obama officially announced his nomination of Holder [JURIST report] last month. Holder served as Deputy US Attorney General [archive materials] during the Clinton administration. Republicans have criticized [JURIST report] Holder for his role in the 2001 pardon of fugitive financier Marc Rich [Time backgrounder]. If confirmed by the Senate, Holder would be the first African-American to lead the Justice Department.
[JURIST] Prosecutors at the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) [official website; JURIST news archive] Tuesday began the war crimes trial [press release] of former Serbian general Vlastimir Djordjevic [ICTY backgrounder, PDF; case materials]. Djordjevic was arrested [JURIST report] in 2007 and formally indicted [indictment, PDF] in July 2008 for his participation in crimes against humanity, murder, and illegal deportation. The indictment alleges that Djordjevic used his role in the Serbian government to commit the crimes, and the forces he commanded acted against those not involved in the hostilities. In his opening statement, prosecutor Chester Stamp accused [AFP report] Djordjevic of forcing the exile of as many as 800,000 Albanians, and the murder of hundreds. The prosecution's case is expected to last approximately 90 hours. The trial of Djordjevic is the fifth and the last trial that the ICTY will hear regarding war crimes in Kosovo.The ICTY has pursued criminal action against other leaders in the Kosovo conflict. Former Yugoslavian president Slobodan Milosevic [ICTY case materials; JURIST news archive] was tried with committing war crimes in the region, but died before a verdict could be issued. The ICTY acquitted [JURIST report] former Kosovo Prime Minister and Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) commander Ramush Haradinaj of all war crimes charges. Haradin Bala was convicted [UN Press release] and sentenced to 13 years in prison for his involvement with the KLA and the torture of prisoners of war. Two others were acquitted in that case. The ICTY is awaiting a verdict [ICTY case materials] in the trial of former Serbian President Milan Milutinovic and six other Serbian officials.
[JURIST] A Peruvian court on Tuesday ruled that two alleged members of the Colina Group [AI backgrounder] must be released without charge after six years in custody. Douglas Arteaga Pascual and Angel Pino Diaz were never convicted during the 72 months they spent in prison. Peruvian law mandates that prisoners be released after 32 months if they have not been convicted. A lawyer for the Pro Human Rights Association (APRODEH) [advocacy website, in Spanish] warned [press release, in Spanish] that the Human Rights Prosecutor now has the responsibility to ensure the safety of the witnesses, their families, and the prosecutors involved in the cases in which Diaz and Pascual are implicated.The Colina group is suspected of being responsible for the 1991 Altos Barrios tenement and 1992 La Cantuta [MIT backgrounder] massacres. Former president Alberto Fujimori [BBC profile, JURIST news archive] is currently on trial [JURIST report] for allegedly ordering the Colina Group to use brutal tactics to eradicate Shining Path (Sendero Luminoso) [BBC backgrounder] leadership. A verdict is expected in March, and Fujimori faces a possible sentence of up to 30 years if convicted.
[JURIST] Sudan's Khartoum North Court on Wednesday sentenced a Sudanese man to 17 years in prison on charges of spying, criminal conspiracy and passing on confidential military documents after he attempted to share information with the International Criminal Court (ICC) [official website] relating to the investigation of a Darfur [JURIST news archive] war crimes suspect. Mohamed Alsary Ibrahim was accused [JURIST report] of trying to get close to Ahmed Haroun, Sudan's state minister for humanitarian affairs, in order to obtain information for Sudanese-American contacts who would then give the information to the ICC. Haroun is accused [JURIST report] of committing war crimes against the civilian population in Darfur.Earlier in January, Sudanese authorities detained [JURIST report] prominent political opposition figure and Islamist leader Hassan al-Turabi in response to al-Turabi's calls for President Omar al-Bashir [BBC profile; JURIST news archive] to turn himself over to the ICC. In August, ICC prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo said Sudan is merely going through the motions with its planned probe [JURIST reports] into Darfur human rights violations. He said that Sudan does not have the political will to bring human rights offenders to justice, noting that an earlier Sudanese investigation into genocide claims was led by Haroun himself. The ICC issued a warrant for Haroun's arrest last year, but Sudan has refused to turn him over. In a controversial move in July, Moreno-Ocampo applied [JURIST reports] for an arrest warrant for al-Bashir on charges of genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes for atrocities committed in the country's Darfur region.
[JURIST] The British Information Tribunal [official website] has ruled [decision, PDF] that the government must release redacted minutes of two Cabinet [official website] discussions from the months preceding the war in Iraq [JURIST news archive]. The discussions of March 13 and 17, 2003, centered on the legality [BBC report] of a possible Iraq war. The tribunal found that the public interest in keeping the minutes sealed did not outweigh the public interest in disclosure, as required by the country's Freedom of Information Act [text]. The majority cited the value of giving the public the chance to make up its mind about the effectiveness of the government's decision-making process in deciding to invade Iraq. The tribunal agreed to the redaction of the names of nations discussed in cases where disclosure would be likely to cause diplomatic difficulties. The tribunal stopped short of requiring the disclosure of informal notes from the meetings. Britain's Freedom of Information Act took substantive effect [JURIST report] in January 2005, four years after its passage by Parliament. At the time, critics complained about broad exceptions that might prevent the release of highly sought-after documents, including many relating to the war in Iraq. In December 2005, a Freedom of Information Act request led to the release of files regarding Bad Nenndorf [JURIST report], a secret British prison camp in Germany after World War II.
[JURIST] A spokesperson for Russian President Dmitry Medvedev [official website] on Tuesday announced that Medvedev's administration will modify a legislative proposal that would change the definition of treason, state secrets, and espionage, amid criticisms that the current text could limit human rights. Civil rights activists have warned that the bill would allow the government to arrest any government critic [statement text, in Russian; JURIST report], as it would extend the definition of treason [Moscow Times report] to include damage to Russia's constitutional order, sovereignty, or territorial integrity. Medvedev's First Deputy Chief of Staff Vladislav Surkov [official profile] said Tuesday that the president ordered the bill to be reviewed in light of the criticisms to ensure no rights would be curtailed. In December, rights activists characterized the bill, which was submitted by the cabinet of Prime Minister Vladimir Putin [official website], as a "terrible blow" and a repetition of the Stalin regime. Earlier this month, Medvedev signed in to law [JURIST report] amendments [text, in Russian] to the country's penal code ending jury trials for terrorism or treason suspects and giving prosecutors broader investigative authority on terrorism or treason related cases. Critics fear that the amendments will decrease transparency [JURIST report] in the Russian judicial system, particularly if the bill expanding the definition of treason is passed. Opponents also say the combination of the two measures could allow the government to take unchecked action [Los Angeles Times report] against political dissenters. Medvedev's Tuesday announcement is being closely observed as a possible sign of a rift between Putin and Medvedev.
[JURIST] A French court on Tuesday postponed a ruling on whether to overturn the sentences of five French citizens who were released from US custody at the Guantanamo Bay [JURIST report] detention center in July 2004 and March 2005 [BBC reports]. The five, identified as Brahim Yadel, 37, Mourad Benchellali, 26, Nizar Sassi, 27, Khaled Ben Mustapha, 35, and Redouane Khalid, 39, were convicted in December 2007 [JURIST report] of "criminal association with a terrorist enterprise," and sentenced to one year in prison each. The five men had served provisional sentences in France and were released before the conclusion of the 2007 trial. The postponement [AFP report] of the French ruling comes in response to US President Barack Obama's order to close the Guantanamo detention center [JURIST report] within one year. France formally charged the defendants [JURIST report] in April 2006. During their original September 2006 trial, the judge refused to deliver a verdict [JURIST report], instead saying that he wanted to know more about a French intelligence-gathering mission in which French agents had interviewed the men while still at Guantanamo. The French government at first failed to disclose the meetings [JURIST report], a fact that could have rendered the case invalid. During the retrial [JURIST report], a French diplomatic telegram published in the Liberation daily referred to intelligence agents who conducted interviews with the suspects at least twice while at Guantanamo.
[JURIST] US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) [official website] officials on Tuesday said that the SEC is committed to greater enforcement in the wake of the recently-revealed fraud scheme allegedly perpetrated by Bernard Madoff [JURIST news archive], at a hearing [materials] before the US Senate Banking Committee [committee website]. The Committee, chaired by Senator Christopher Dodd (D-CT) [official website], heard testimony from two victims of the alleged Madoff fraud, as well as SEC Division of Enforcement Director Linda Thomsen, SEC Office of Compliance Inspections and Examinations Director Lori Richards, and Interim CEO of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority Stephen Luparello [testimony, PDF]. Richards testified:
The agencys staff are dedicated, hardworking, and keenly committed to the agencys mission to protect investors. Speaking as an examiner, we are focused hard on fraud, and we are committed to finding fraud. We examine many different firms -- these include many that are run honestly and in compliance with the law, and they also include those that are engaged in deception, dishonesty, falsification of records and fraud of various kinds. Examinations have identified many different types of frauds, including carefully-hidden Ponzi schemes.

Here's a FANTASTICO way to recycle your child's old T-shirts and turn them into a Dora snuggle pillow that delivers a "green" message!
Watch Dora Every Day on Nick Jr.
Find one of your child's outgrown T-shirts. Wash and dry.
Choose the appropriate iron-on image and the type of iron-on transfer paper based on the color of your fabric. For dark-colored fabrics, print the non-reversed iron-on onto transfer paper for dark clothing. The image is ironed onto the fabric faceup. For lighter fabrics, print the reverse image iron-on onto transfer paper for light clothing. The image is ironed facedown onto the fabric. Cut out the iron-on image and iron it onto the center of the T-shirt using the transfer paper's instructions.
Seal the bottom of the T-shirt and the edges of the sleeves with fabric glue. Let dry. If the front and back of the neck opening are at different heights, cut along the lower line so the front and back have identically curved edges to glue together.
Stuff the pillow through the neck opening with batting or old, soft clothes that you think would fit in.
Once the "pillow" is pumped up, seal the neck opening with fabric glue and let dry.

ABC de la Semana and Radio América
January 16, 2009, in Valencia, Venezuela
62, director of the local political weekly ABC de la Semana and
broadcaster Radio América, was shot by a motorcycle-riding assailant outside a
video store in the northern city of
Sambrano, also a practicing lawyer, was known locally for his investigations and commentaries on local politics, local reporters told CPJ. Prior to his death, he had reported extensively on drug trafficking for ABC de la Semana and Radio América, according to news reports and CPJ interviews.
February 13, 2009, Venezuelan authorities arrested
Rafael Segundo Pérez, a former sergeant for the Carabobo police, in connection
with Sambrano's killing. Pérez was accused of being a hired assassin, police
told the local press.
The prosecutor's office also alleges that local businessman Walid Makled plotted the crime in retaliation for Sambrano's stories on the links between the businessman's brother and drug traffickers, the national newspaper El Universal reported. Former police officer David Antonio Yánez Inciarte and two members of Los Piloneros criminal gang, Arístides José Carvajal Salgado and Víctor Reales Hoyo allegedly carried out the slaying, according to local press reports. Carvajal was identified as the gunman by the prosecutor's office.
investigative police arrested

Interpol is an American rock band from New York City.
Formed in 1997, the band's original line-up consisted of Paul Banks (vocals, guitar), Daniel Kessler (guitar, vocals), Carlos Dengler (bass guitar, keyboards) and Greg Drudy (drums, percussion). Drudy left the band in 2000 and was replaced by Sam Fogarino. In 2010, shortly after recording finished for the band's fourth album, Dengler left to pursue personal projects.
Interpol, having first performed at Luna Lounge along with other notable bands like The Strokes, Longwave, The National and Stellastarr, is one of the bands associated with the New York City indie-music scene, and was one of several groups that emerged from the post-punk revival of the 2000s.
The band's sound is generally a mix of staccato bass and rhythmic, harmonized guitar, with a snare heavy mix, drawing comparisons to post-punk bands such as Joy Division and The Chameleons. Aside from the lyrics, their songwriting method includes all of the band members, rather than relying on any given chief songwriter.

Detecting Storage of Modern Smartphones
I got my Nexus 4 few weeks ago. It has no micro-SD card slot, but this is not a rant about the lack of storage scalability. When you plug modern smartphones into a Windows machine, you'll get a Portable Device label. What does it mean? It's technically not a Removable Device.
Please do note that this is not only a case for modern smartphones. Same applies for different devices such as portable media players (MP3 players, etc.)
The problem with this is, the device is not treated as a drive, so codes like this won't show information about such devices.
foreach (DriveInfo dinfo in DriveInfo.GetDrives()) { Console.WriteLine(dinfo.RootDirectory); }
Based on the above image, this code will only output:
It would be so much pain if I will be writing an automated process application that does something with the smartphone's storage. But there must be a way, right?
If you are using VS, this will help you, open up your reference manager, and add these COM references.
But there's another problem. This will only detect one device. Luckily we can edit the assembly, but first set Embed Interop Assembly on both interops to False
Now, go to your project's folder, and navigate to
. Make sure the assemblies are inside that folder. Copy the full path, and open up Developer Command Prompt for VSXXXX where XXXX is your VS version.
Change the working directory to the path you copied earlier, and using ildasm
, disassemble Interop.PortableDeviceApiLib.dll.
ildasm Interop.PortableDeviceApiLib.dll /out:papi.il
The MSIL Disassembler is a companion tool to the MSIL Assembler (Ilasm.exe). Ildasm.exe takes a portable executable (PE) file that contains Microsoft intermediate language (MSIL) code and creates a text file suitable as input to Ilasm.exe.
We've just disassembled Interop.PortableDeviceApiLib.dll, and now you can edit it with your favorite text editor. This is the line we're looking for:
GetDevices([in][out] string& marshal( lpwstr)
We need to change every occurrence of that to:
GetDevices([in][out] string[] marshal(lpwstr[])
Short Explanation: We just changed the first parameter's data type from a string reference, to an array of strings. This way, we can retrieve many devices.
Lastly, re-assemble the interop:
ilasm papi.il /dll /output="<obj Path>\Interop.PortableDeviceApiLib.dll"
For the code:
uint devNum = 1; PortableDeviceManagerClass devM = new PortableDeviceManagerClass(); devM.GetDevices(null, ref devNum); if (devNum > 0) { string[] dId = new string[devNum]; devM.GetDevices(dId, ref devNum); for (int dx = 0; dx < devNum; dx++) { Console.WriteLine("Device " + dx + 1 + " : " + dId[dx]); } }
It will output lines like:
Device 1 : \\?\usb#vid_18d1&pid_4ee2&mi_00#6&68a019c&1&0000#{6ac27878-a6fa-4155-ba85-f98f491d4f33}
You can then use \\?\usb#vid_18d1&pid_4ee2&mi_00#6&68a019c&1&0000#{6ac27878-a6fa-4155-ba85-f98f491d4f33}
, copy it and paste it on explorer's address bar. Works like charm!

MINUTES OF A SPECIAL MEETING OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF VISITORS OF VIRGINIA COMMONWEALTH UNIVERSITY February 19, 1981 A special meeting of the Executive Committee of the Board of Visitors of Virginia Commonwealth University was held on Thursday, February 19, 1981, at 8:30 a.m. in the Conference Room at 910 West Franklin Street. Present were Mesdames Bemiss and Satterfield, Drs. Gayle and Nemuth and Mr. Ludeman. Absent were Mrs. Thalhimer and Mr. Grey. Also present were Drs. Ackell, Hall, Harris, Salley, Wilson and Woods; Messrs. Bruegman, Guerdon and Ross; Miss Cosby and Mrs. Price. Mrs. Satterfield called the meeting to order and announced that Mr. Willson Craigie was attending the Executive Committee meeting at the request of Mrs. Thalhimer to answer any questions regarding the Audit Committee. Mr. Bruegman presented the proposed Institutional Priorities for VCU for the information of the Board. He stated that in January the goals and objectives only were presented to the Board and the statement presented today includes the strategies for achieving these goals and objectives. Mr. Bruegman also reported that the document is receiving wide circulation throughout the University as well as publication in VCU Today. The timetable calls for all revisions to be made and the statement ready for distribution to the Board at its May meeting. Dr. Ackell asked each Committee member to relay any concerns or recommendations they had concerning the document to either him or Mr. Bruegman. Mr. Ludeman raised several points which will be reviewed for inclusion in the document. Mr. Bruegman presented the program proposals for the 1982-84 biennial budget process. Following a review of the capital and operating budgets, Mr. Bruegman reported that the following issues would be important to VCU during the 1982- 84 biennium: University Maximum Funding of Appendix M Guidelines. Fund guidelines closer to 100% rather than current 90%. Salary Authorization. Faculty salary increases equivalent to 12% per year. Other Objects. Use of realistic inflation rates and recogni- tion of inequities. 70/30 Plan. Implementation of SCHEV's 75/25 plan for in- state students and 50/50 plan for out-of-state students. Student Aid. Increased funding to maintain enrollments and preserve access to higher education. Dentistry. Adjustments of Appendix M formula and reduction in class size. Continuing Education. Support of SCHEV proposal to classify and fund community-based educational programs. Hospitals Level of State Support. Maintain State's current level of support at 25% of Hospital's operating budget. Mr. Ludeman requested that, in the future, the costs of new programs be identified in budget proposals. Mr. Bruegman responded that these costs were included as part of the maximum funding of the Appendix M Guidelines and will be broken out separately for future presentations. Mr. Guerdon, Mr. Scott Lodge and Mr. F. W. Taylor presented a very detailed report on understanding the financial statements for colleges and universities. Included in this report was a summary of significant accounting policies, concepts of fund accounting, financial statements for colleges and universities and the auditor's report. Mr. Guerdon presented a report on the possibility of VCU establishing endow- ment funds. Mr. Guerdon reported that reasons for this include providing greater control of the use of funds, providing greater management flexibility, encouraging increased endowment giving and serving as a base for enhancing the development function. He also reported that there are three types of endowment funds: endow- -3- ment, term endowment and quasi-endowment. Quasi-endowments are those funds con- trolled by the Board of Visitors. Mr. Guerdon reported that all endowment funds are presently with the two foundations. Dr. Gayle requested that Mr. Guerdon check on the location of funds for the William Branch Porter Chair and the Surgery Chair. Dr. Gayle believes these two chairs are endowed and controlled by the University not the foundations. Mr. Guerdon indicated that he would look into the matter and stated that the report was for information only. On motion made, seconded and approved, the Committee went into executive session to discuss certain personnel matters involving the performance of identifiable em- ployees or faculty of VCU and to discuss matters relating to gifts, bequests, and fund-raising activities as authorized by Sections 2.1 - 344 a(1) and a(7) of the Freedom of Information Act. The Committee reconvened in public session and, on motion made and seconded, approved the establishment of the Roscoe D. Hughes Human Genetics Fund. The meeting was adjourned at 10:10 a.m. Ha old I. Nemuth, Secretary Approved:

For many families, taking care of a disabled child can be costly. Medications, therapy, counseling, rehabilitation, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, schooling, assistive devices and special recreational activities are often unexpected and overwhelming expenses.
According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the average lifetime cost for one person with cerebral palsy is estimated at $921,000. This figure represents costs above and beyond those experienced by a person who does not have a disability.

DeMartin is the younger brother of current Ferris State women's basketball senior guard Lucy DeMartin (Mason), who compiled a school-record 525 points in 2002-03 while attaining first-team All-Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) North Division accolades.
"Joe had a great high school career and we really believe his best basketball is ahead of him," Sall said. "He's one of the better point guards in West Michigan so we're excited to land him."
The 6-1 DeMartin averaged 16 points, three rebounds and three assists per game while guiding Mason High School to an 18-5 overall record, the Capital Circuit League title and a Michigan High School Athletic Association (MHSAA) Class A district final finish during the 2002-03 campaign. He was recognized as both an honorable mention 2002-03 Detroit Free Press Class A All-State selection and a Lansing State Journal All-Area Dream Team honoree.
"We're expecting Joe to come in and contend for playing time," said Sall. "He's an outstanding young player who should be a great asset to our squad."
A two-time (2002-03) league all-academic team pick, DeMartin also garnered team Most Valuable Player Award and Best Offensive Player Award kudos for the second consecutive season in 2002-03. The 2001-02 honorable mention all-area selection attained league MVP honors and WLNS-TV 6 Player of the Week recognition this campaign. He was a third-team all-league pick after averaging 10.4 points and two assists per outing in 2001-02.
DeMartin, who is undecided on a major, is the son of Daniel and Judi DeMartin. His father played basketball at both Lansing (Mich.) Community College and Truman State (Mo.), formerly Northeast Missouri State.
DeMartin joins forward/center Adam Veltkamp (Cedar Springs), forward Michael Daniels (Detroit/Murray-Wright), guard C.J. Van Wieren (Holland/West Ottawa), forward Terrance Shaw (Saginaw/Bridgeport) and forward Willie Burrel (Muskegon Heights/Muskegon CC) as the Bulldogs' 2003-04 men's basketball signees to date.
Ferris posted an 11-15 overall record and a fourth-place 7-11 Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference North Division finish this campaign. The Bulldogs' overall record and league finish were their best since compiling a 21-12 mark and a fourth-place 10-8 league ledger during the 1997-98 season.
Burrel, a 6-6 forward, averaged 21.5 points and 12 rebounds per game while leading Muskegon (Mich.) Community College to a 21-8 overall record and a Michigan Community College Athletic Association (MCCAA) playoff berth during the 2002-03 campaign. He attained second-team National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) All-America recognition along with first-team MCCAA All-State and MCCAA All-Western Conference accolades this season. Burrel, who totaled 624 points and 347 rebounds in 29 outings this campaign, ranked ninth in rebounding and 15th in scoring among NJCAA's 2002-03 overall leaders. The Jayhawks placed third with a 10-4 mark in the MCCAA's Western Conference after being picked fifth in the league's preseason coaches poll.
"Willie is a quality kid who will help solidify our program," Sall said. "He gives us significant experience after having played two years in a competitive junior college program. His addition will strengthen us both in the frontcourt and outside."
A 2001 Muskegon Heights High School graduate, Burrel garnered first-team 2002-03 NJCAA All-Region XII honors in his second collegiate season under head coach Gene Gifford. He totaled 16.5 points and 7.6 rebounds per game as the Jayhawks registered a 17-13 overall mark during his freshman (2001-02) campaign. As a prep senior, Burrel led Muskegon Heights to a Michigan High School Athletic Association (MHSAA) regional semifinal round appearance in 2000-01 while averaging 14.6 points per game.
"Willie is a good rebounder who's also a legitimate scoring threat," said Sall. "He was a tremendous leader in the junior college ranks so we're expecting him to play a key role for us."
An education major, Burrel is the son of Willie Sr. and Zandra Burrel. He joins forward/center Adam Veltkamp (Cedar Springs), forward Michael Daniels (Detroit/Murray-Wright), guard C.J. Van Wieren (Holland/West Ottawa) and forward Terrance Shaw (Saginaw/Bridgeport) as the Bulldogs' 2003-04 men's basketball recruits to date.
Burrel also becomes both the second Muskegon Community College and Muskegon Heights product currently playing at Ferris State, joining senior guard Willie Thomas (Columbus, Ohio/Muskegon CC) and redshirt freshman guard Dominic Gray (Muskegon Heights). Thomas, who played for the Jayhawks in 2001-02, started 24 outings and averaged 14.3 points per game this past campaign while Gray was redshirted during the 2002-03 season.
The 6-6 Daniels tallied 15.1 points and 11.4 rebounds per game while leading Detroit Murray-Wright High School to a 19-3 overall record and a Michigan High School Athletic Association (MHSAA) Class A State Semifinal appearance as a senior during the 2002-03 campaign. The honorable mention 2002-03 Detroit Free Press and Detroit News Class A All-State selection scored a team-high 22 points and had four steals in the Pilots' 62-61 loss versus eventual state champion Rockford in the state semifinals (March 21) at Michigan State University's Breslin Center in East Lansing, Mich.
"Michael comes from a winning tradition and has a good feel for the game of basketball," Sall said. "He'll have to adjust to a few things at the collegiate level, but we're expecting him to be a solid contributor right away.
"He knows where he needs to be on the floor and will be a strong player in our league," added Sall.
A third-team 2002-03 Detroit Public School League (PSL) pick, Daniels received both honorable mention All-Metro accolades and third-team All-Detroit honors from the Detroit Free Press and the Detroit News. The two-year letterwinner guided Detroit Murray-Wright to a first-place 11-1 mark in the PSL's Southeast Division this campaign under head coach Earl Moore. Daniels also served as team captain for the Pilots, who reached the state semifinals for the third time in school history. He was an 11th-team 2002-03 Class A all-state honoree by MichiganPreps.com.
"He has the ability to shoot the ball from mid-range," said Sall. "In addition, Michael has the potential to be an excellent player with his back to the basket, which will help add versatility to our team."
The son of Brenda Daniels, Michael plans to major in education at Ferris State. He joins forward/center Adam Veltkamp (Cedar Springs), guard C.J. Van Wieren (Holland/West Ottawa) and forward Terrance Shaw (Saginaw/Bridgeport) as FSU's 2003-04 men's basketball recruits to date.
Ferris' 11-15 overall record this campaign was its best since compiling a 21-12 mark during the 1997-98 season. FSU also posted a fourth-place 7-11 Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) North Division finish this season after being picked seventh in the 2002-03 GLIAC Preseason Coaches Poll.
Shaw, a 6-5 forward, averaged 21 points and 11 rebounds per game while leading Bridgeport High School to a 14-7 overall record and a district semifinal finish as a senior during the 2002-03 campaign. He attained first-team 2002-03 Associated Press Class B All-State recognition along with second-team honors from the Detroit News and fourth-team Detroit Free Press accolades. Shaw was a third-team MichiganPreps.com Class B All-State pick this campaign.
"Terrance is a versatile athlete who will be a great addition to our program," Sall said. "He has the ability to change the course of a game with his outstanding jumping ability. He also is a solid finisher around the basket and should make a significant contribution for us in the years ahead."
A two-time (2002-03) Saginaw News Class B First-Team All-Area honoree, Shaw also received first-team 2002-03 Tri-Valley Conference East Division kudos for the second consecutive campaign. The two-year letterwinner was ranked as one of the Detroit Free Press' top 100 prep basketball prospects prior to the start of the 2002-03 season after guiding the Bearcats to a district championship under head coach Tim Crawford in 2001-02.
"Terrance had an outstanding high school career and we're expecting him to do well at Ferris State," said Sall. "He's a good rebounder who will be able to play both the small and power forward positions in our lineup."
Shaw, who plans to major in mechanical engineering, also competed in track and field at Bridgeport. The son of Kathy Shaw, Terrance joins forward/center Adam Veltkamp (Cedar Springs) and guard C.J. Van Wieren (Holland/West Ottawa) as the Bulldogs' 2003-04 men's basketball recruits to date.
A 6-4 guard/forward, Van Wieren averaged 22 points and 11 rebounds per game during the 2002-03 campaign while leading West Ottawa High School to a school-record 15-7 overall record and a Michigan High School Athletic Association (MHSAA) Class A district semifinal finish. The team captain garnered both 2002-03 Detroit Free Press Class A Sixth-Team All-State and Associated Press Class A Honorable Mention All-State basketball accolades.
"C.J. is one of the best competitors I've seen at the high school level," Sall said. "He excelled as a multi-sport prep athlete and we expect him to do the same at Ferris State."
A third-team 2002-03 Grand Rapids Press All-Area Dream Team honoree, Van Wieren twice (2002-03) attained first-team All-Ottawa-Kent (OK) Red Conference recognition. The two-time (2002-03) Holland Sentinel All-Area pick earned three varsity letters under head coach Von Washington and was ranked as the Detroit Free Press' 28th-best prep basketball prospect prior to the start of the 2002-03 season.
"We're hoping C.J.'s competitive instinct will help feed off to our other players," said Sall. "He should be able to step in and contribute immediately due to his outstanding athletic ability. He will be great addition to our program."
In football as West Ottawa's quarterback, Van Wieren threw for 2,139 yards and 29 touchdowns during the 2002 campaign to rank 20th all-time among the state's single-season passing leaders and sixth in touchdowns for a season. The three-time all-conference pick received Class A All-State First Team accolades along with first-team recognition on both The Detroit News' and Grand Rapids Press' Dream Teams. Van Wieren, who also was the Panthers' leading rusher with 930 yards and nine touchdowns, guided West Ottawa to an 8-3 record and the school's first-ever playoff victory last fall after compiling 1,400 passing yards and 450 rushing yards as a junior in 2001.
Van Wieren, who plans to major in education, also was a two-year varsity baseball letterwinner and received West Ottawa's Scholar-Athlete Award. The son of James and Diane Van Wieren, C.J. joins forward/center Adam Veltkamp (Cedar Springs), who signed in the fall, as FSU's 2003-04 men's basketball recruits to date.
The 6-8 Veltkamp, who was a 2001-02 honorable mention all-area selection, averaged 11 points, 10 rebounds and five blocked shots per contest as a junior for Cedar Springs High School under head coach Dave Schlump. The two-time team captain tallied a team-high 103 total blocks in 2001-02 and is expected to play the forward position at Ferris State.
"Adam has good size and will be able to help us at the post positions," Sall said. "He comes from a successful high school program and has been one of the area's top players."
"We're looking for great things from him in the future," added Sall.
Veltkamp, who posted the Michigan High School Athletic Association's (MHSAA) fifth-best all-time single-game blocked shots performance (13) in last season's district final, is a three-time academic all-area honoree. He also placed sixth in the high jump for the Redhawks at the 2002 MHSAA Division II Regional track and field meet.
"Adam's early signing is important since this is such a big recruiting year for us," Sall said. "One of the things we needed to address was our size so his addition will be extremely beneficial."
Veltkamp, who is FSU's first recruit in the fall signing period, plans to major in engineering at Ferris State. The son of Ron and Christine Veltkamp of Cedar Springs, Veltkamp played competitive basketball for the Grand Rapids (Mich.) Storm Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) squad.
Ferris State, which opened the 2002-03 campaign Friday (Nov. 22) at Saint Joseph's (Ind.), will host Calvin College Tuesday, Nov. 26, at FSU's Jim Wink Arena. Tipoff for the non-league contest is slated for 7:30 p.m. (EST). The Bulldogs open Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) action Saturday, Nov. 30, hosting the University of Findlay (Ohio) in a 3 p.m. (EST) tilt.

As of January, 2009, Archive Team no longer considers Yahoo a dependable location for data.
This is not based on their engineering, which has shown itself to be consistent and with few outages. Rather, it appears the company is in relative free-fall with regards to which projects they will maintain and what comes under any given knife for cost-cutting measures.
When a company enters this sort of spiral with regard to one of their core businesses (hosting and providing of information services), and consistently gives little or no indication of their next move, it becomes incumbent upon the users of that service to either demand changes in policy, or find alternatives, even poor ones, and build those up.
When a company decides (or, more accurately, someone with the company decides) that a website or sub-site is no longer viable, then it's living on borrowed time. Like a store closing, or a very sick pet, it becomes a matter of how to bring things to a close. This is entirely up to the closing party, and from their behavior, we can see how they will consider doing this.
Previously, Yahoo showed some level of restraint in how they would shut down services. For example, when Yahoo! Photos, a photo sharing site, was closed in favor of the bright and shiny new property Flickr, it was announced, a special site was provided to assist users in transferring their photos to other sites, and there was an opportunity to purchase an archive CD of your content. [1]. It should be noted, however, that Yahoo! Photos was closed under much protest and duress of the userbase, who in some cases had no interest in transferring to Flickr and wished merely to maintain their own interface.
But now, Yahoo seems to have no issues with very quick shutdown, with little warning, and almost no regard for the quality of the site.
Some examples of this new behavior:
- Yahoo is closing GeoCities down "later this year." [2] Time to start mirroring...
- Yahoo closed Brickhouse, their in-house development and prototype department (think of it as an incubator) in December of 2008. They were swift enough to close down the building within weeks. [3]
- In December of 2008, Yahoo began layoffs at Flickr, a site previously untouchable, including George Oates[4], who designed the interface of Flickr, and championed the site's interaction with the "Commons", including the US Library of Congress, and making Creative Commons licenses the default for Flickr's photo uploads. Oates was laid off mid-trip on a fact-finding and information trip for Yahoo, having met and advocated Flickr to a number of prominent folks. [5]
- On or about January 27, 2009, with absolutely no notice, Yahoo Pets was shut down, all content removed from the web, and completely redirected under another Yahoo property, Shine. [6]
Please do not use Yahoo or Yahoo-owned sites for any non-retrievable personal data.
Non-retrievable data means that there is no export function, or way to pull your personal data off the site. You should continue to use it if you can be assured that the Yahoo function you are using will not dramatically affect your life if it disappears tomorrow. Because it might.

Rapid Spread of Resistant Weeds
As known in the industry, weeds can become resistant to ALS-inhibitor herbicides quite quickly when they are used
continuously. Weed resistance to ALS-inhibitors should be widespread inside and outside the U.S. because this mode of action has 54 registered active herbicides in its group.
The rapid increase in discovery of herbicide-resistant weeds makes it likely that more weeds are resistant than those included in the International Survey of Herbicide Resistant Weeds, even though weeds are constantly being added, such as the July listing of smallflower umbrella sedge in California being resistant to ureas and amides.
Taking the discovery of herbicide-resistant weeds to the local level, lower than state level in the U.S., is extremely hard. In most states, the onus lands on the individual farmers.
Resistant weeds being discovered often is the result of growers finding weeds they have not been able to control.
"A farmer will find a weed or a patch of weeds in a field that he is not able to control and will call in a epresentative from the company who supplied the product applied or will check with his local university Extension service," noted Glasgow.
"The international survey defines what should be done to prove that it is a resistant weed. There is some pretty stringent testing that needs to go on, especially when a new weed species is suspected to be resistant or the first time that a herbicide is showing lack of control of a previously sensitive species," he added.
Therefore, the listing of weeds is usually behind the curve on what is happening in the real world to some degree. A farmer shouldn't wait until a weed shows up on the list as resistant to the herbicide mode of action before altering a weed management program.
Julian Smith, Ph.D., director of discovery and innovation with Brandt located in central Illinois, provides a concise thought about management programs that are driving weed resistance. "Farming is more intensive than it was in the past. We tend to have more monoculture environments than we ever had before. Although there still are a multitude of rotations, monocultures are more common. And I think another piece is that there are not as many tillage operations carried out on farms as there used to be. Pre and post tillage used to be a pretty valuable mechanical means of weed control."
Palmer amaranth and waterhemp are both prolific seed and pollen producers. Smith isn't saying he is favoring more tillage or against continuous corn and soybean cropping. He simply noted that continuous use of one herbicide with minimum tillage sets the stage for weeds to adapt or for those that thrive in specific management programs to thrive.
Equipment Directory
Are you seeing or hearing of any resistant weeds in the lawn care industry? Primarily residential and commercial properties. Thanks,Dave Smith

Blue Exorcist: Is it Good?Blue Exorcist was definitely one of the shows that I was looking forward to back in 2011. After being obsessed with the manga for years, the anime adaptation filled me with joy and anticipation. While it gave me the experience I craved, it didn't satisfy me enough to call it perfect. There are reasons why, and I will explain them in this upcoming "Is it Good?" review.Read more

Firefighter labor dispute continues
Published on Wed, Jun 25, 2008 by
Evan Mclean
Read More
Clallam County Fire District 3 is paying for one firefighter more than it has on staff.
Peter Craig, a fire captain with the district, has been on paid administrative leave for more than a year after his termination was appealed by his labor union in June 2007.
Craig was fired Aug. 18, 2006, for horseplay on the job, according to court documents.
The matter was appealed to a labor union arbitrator who reviewed the decision. Arbitrator Michael Beck ruled the Fire District Commissions decision to fire Craig was too harsh and ordered Craigs reinstatement with back pay, excluding days he should have been suspended, rather than terminated.
But Craig is not back on the job. He is getting the paychecks but fire Chief Steve Vogel is not letting him suit up.
District 3 is challenging the arbitrators order in Clallam County Superior Court. The case, which was filed on Aug. 21, 2007, had a trial date set for early May 2008 on a day booked with too many trials for the court to handle one of its size. Judge Ken Williams indicated a trial with so much information needed an entire day and that attorneys agreed to a new date, Dec. 8, 2008.
Craig was placed on paid leave while the district investigated his actions, from June 2006 to his termination in August 2006. He then was without pay until the arbitrator ordered his reinstatement in June 2007, at which time he again was placed on paid leave pending a court decision.
If the court approves the arbitrators order, District 3 will be forced to also pay for the 10 months between Craigs termination and the order to reinstate him.
Craig, of Sequim, has a 15-year career in firefighting He is a shift captain and is in charge of training and operations of firefighters on staff during his shift.
The horseplay incident took place on May 31, 2006.
Clallam County Superior Court documents filed by District 3s attorney Thomas Burke state Craig took control of an aerial bucket on a fire engine after a training exercise, elevated another firefighter to the maximum height of the mechanical arm and bounced the bucket in an up-and-down motion. The firefighter in the bucket reportedly spilled some water onto Craig and other personnel.
The report indicates firefighters at the scene requested Craig report the alleged safety violation and requested a structural analysis for the fire truck to determine if any damage resulted from the actions.
Capt. Craig failed to report the incident that took place during the training drill May 31 to his superiors as a safety violation, the report reads. Also, Capt. Craig did not report the possible structural damage that may have occurred to truck No. 344.
As a consequence, other fire personnel filed complaints regarding the alleged violations, according to the report.
Vogel recommended termination of Craig to the fire district board of commissioners on July 31.
Craig filed a grievance with his labor union, the International Association of Fire Fighters, which initiated the arbitration hearing.
The arbitrator found the correct reprimand should have been suspension without pay for 10 days and ordered Craigs reinstatement.
Burke asserts the arbitrator overstepped legal jurisdiction by determining what level of discipline the incident required.

Recipe by Elizabeth
"Fruit salad recipe Grandma gave me over 24 years ago. Just made it last Easter. It was good."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 (6 ounce) package orange flavored Jell-O® mix
1 (16 ounce) package cottage cheese
2 (11 ounce) cans mandarin oranges, drained
1 (19 ounce) can crushed pineapple
3 (8 ounce) containers frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 (4 ounce) jar maraschino cherries
1 cup walnuts
I wanted a smoother consistancy--I ran the cottage cheese through the blender before mixing it with the Jello. I used sugar free Jello and "lite" whipped topping. I only had one big container, I used that instead of three small containers. My family loved this salad. My husband loves ambrosia but he dosen't care for coconut--he ate THREE BOWLS of this salad!
After mixing everything together and tasting it, I thought 24 ounces of whipped topping was too much, but it was too late. So in addition to the recipe, I added another can of mandarin oranges and a can of chunk pineapple. I also added extra chopped walnuts. It finally met my taste test. Next time I will follow the recipe but add only 16 oz of whipped topping, and maybe more cottage cheese for a chunkier consistency. It is a very good salad, very ambrosia like.

2 (15 ounce) cans tomato sauce
1 (1.3 ounce) envelope sloppy joe seasoning
5 red bell peppers, tops removed and set aside and seeds removed

1 pound ground beef
1/2 cup beef broth
1/2 cup instant rice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Mo. House backs measure aimed at child sex abuse
Missouri House members have given first-round approval to a proposed constitutional amendment aimed at helping child sex abuse prosecutions.
The measure would let prosecutors introduce evidence of past crimes to corroborate a victim's testimony or to demonstrate someone has an inclination to commit the alleged crime. Such evidence would be limited to prosecutions of sexual crimes that involve a victim younger than 16.
Supporters say federal courts and many states allow that type of evidence. The Missouri Supreme Court previously has ruled it violates the state constitution.
In January, a Missouri child sex abuse task force recommended the constitutional amendment.
House members endorsed the proposal Wednesday, and it needs another vote to move to the Senate. Ultimately, voters would decide its fate.
