Menomonee Falls School Board Member Lori Blodorn will resign from the School Board within the next few weeks as she accepted the position of human resources manager within the School District.
Blodorn, whose Board seat is open in the spring election, will replace the current Human Resources Manager Ken Kuberka.
According to the District, Blodorn will officially start her new job in January.
The School Board will also decide in January how to handle the vacant seat. The Board can either appoint someone who would then have to run for election in April, or run with six members until the election.
More than 75 candidates were reviewed for the human resources manager position. A handful of candidates were interviewed, according to the District.
The hiring team was impressed with Blodorn's dedication, commitment and knowledge to the District.
"We are confident in Lori's ability to assist in the positive progression that the District has and continues to undertake in the human resources arena," said Director of Human Resources Christiane Standlee.
Blodorn holds a law degree from Boston College. She has worked for law firms in Colorado and Boston. She has served on the School Board since 2010, including serving on the Personnel Committee. Last April, she was selected as vice president of the School Board.

When will anyone see
The real me
The one inside
Who hurts and aches, whose heart bleeds.
I can put on a front
Pretend I'm ok
But deep inside
I'm dying slowly each day.
I crave a love that's true
Love that's unending
Unconditional, pure and complete
Love that loves, simply because I'm me.

The ability to perform the routine activities of daily living, such as washing and dressing, are critical for a child's well being and self esteem. It may be easier and faster to do things for your blind or partially sighted child, and you will have a natural instinct to help them as much as you can. Try to balance being supportive and helpful with enabling them to learn to do things for themselves, as your son or daughter will get a lot of happiness and reward from developing his or her own skills. You can get advice and support about supporting your child's independence from a Children's Habilitation Specialist. See our Mobility and Habilitation page for more information.
Start with undressing - it's easier to take things off than to put them on.
Bath time is a great opportunity for babies and young children to learn about body parts and to understand relative size with brothers and sisters if everyone's in together.
Teach your child to put the toothpaste onto their finger and rub it onto their teeth directly and then to start brushing. This way you avoid the problems of co-ordinating the end of the toothpaste tube with the toothbrush.
Children learn to use the toilet at different ages and stages - it is important that you and your child are both comfortable to embark on this project. Accidents will happen and may require patience on your part as a parent or carer.
Feeding is an important daily living skill to teach your child. Mealtimes should be fun and are a good opportunity to develop social skills, though eating can be a difficult or stressful experience for blind and partially sighted children. The tips below may help to avoid difficulties:
Our Early Years series of booklets contain many more suggestions for teaching daily living skills. "Setting Out" and "Focus on Foundation" may be of particular interest. See RNIB Publications for further details.

Japanese Bioshock PS3 Ad Bioshock hit Japan this month and with much excitement. The excitement isn't just for the game, it's for the creepy Japanese ad for the game. It seems the majority of the US is freaked out by the ad, it's simplistic and gets the point across. I just don't get why everyone is scared by it. I guess it's all that Horror survival video game desensitization. http://www.girlsentertainmentnetwork.com/bioshock-ps3-japanese-ad-slightly-frightens-us/

Ought to be a must=read. Fools think they are getting something free. Revelation one comes when they read the fine-print and see the monthly premium for the insurance. The really nasty news comes a year later when the tax bill comes for the credit they didn't take when they decided not to buy insurance. The irony will be that residents in red states won't get hit with the tax bill (because they didn't set up a state exchange), just those in blue states.

the dorms are very nice and comfortable. they are even adding an all-green dorm in the next few years. …
It's a great atmosphere for meeting new people as there isn't that many students to begin with; however, it is not entirely the best thing when all the buildings always…
Dorms are adequate and some halls are far nicer than others. The on campus apartments do provide nice accommodations, but can be rather expensive.…
In all honesty, I am not a fair judge on dorm life as I never lived on campus. I have however been in the dorms and I thought they were…
The food is not usually good. The main entre is usually bad, but everything else is pretty decent. Every once in a while, they have a really good meal.
Read MoreThere are a few different dining options in campus aside from the main dining hall. We have a small coffee stand called Higbies and the Turtle Mountain Cafe. No matter where you eat, the food is good. Morris has been awarded many times for the variety and the Vegetarian/Vegan friendly options offered at every meal.
Read MoreUnfortunately, the trade off of having a small school and smaller class sizes, there is only one dining hall and there isn't a lot of variety. Small town life also doesn't offer a lot of good options, though Don's and Common Cup are student favorites. Urban dining is something Morris lacks.
Read MoreThe food on campus is actually really good; as a going-green campus, a lot of the fruits and vegetables are grown by students in organic gardens and given to the dining hall. But if you don't like cafeteria food, there are a few cafes and a small convenient store open to all students.
Read MoreThere are a few options for on-campus food. The dining hall has a variety of foods and you can also have a custom stir-fry/omelette made. The TMC is a slightly more expensive choice since it is higher quality but definitely worth it if you want a quick meal while you study! Higbies is the coffee shop and it has a selection of Caribou coffee as well as a constantly changing selection of various candies. The C-Store is for late-night munchies and it is quite overpriced and you are probably better off stocking up on food from Shopko or the Willy's in town if you want to save a few bucks.
Read MoreThe dining hall is large and there are lots of places to sit. There are lots of varieties of food offered, but if you go later at night or even in the afternoon, your options will be more limited. The food is okay. It is all you can eat, however.
Read MoreThe food here isn't the best thing I've ever eaten but it isn't the worst. The food service is very good at trying to have a variety of food to keep people from getting bored there is always a pasta of some type and a salad bar along with sandwiches if you do not want to eat the main meal they are serving. However there are restaurants in the town and the grocery store is only a few blocks away if you want something else asides from cafeteria food that day.
Read MoreI absolutely love the food choices here! First off you have Turtle Mountain Cafe which is a great little 'restaurant' but very affordable! Like every eating facility on campus it is very vegetarian friendly and their veggie burgers are delicious! They also have weekly specials and traditions, Stir-Friday and Tuscan-Tuesday have got to be my favorite! Food Services is a great place as well, the variety is crazy and once you pay it is buffet style which I personally love. There is also Higbies which is a little coffee shop (affiliated with Caribou Coffee) that sells awesome drinks and fresh baked goods (scones, bars, muffins etc). The C-Store is great for late night snacks as they are open until Midnight, and sometimes 2 a.m.! Its basically kind of like a gas station but just for food and necessities :)
Read MoreThey recently won an award for the best vegen school.
Read MoreMorris has a great selection of food. Quite a lot of it is locally grown without pesticides and nasty stuff. My favorite meal is the sizzling salads... you choose your veggies and dressing and it's all fried up. Yum!
Read MoreNon-existent
Read MoreI am sorry to say that the Greek Life is very slim here. It is almost non-existent, though some organizations do factor it in. You'd just have to look for it. If you are looking for a very prominent Greek Life experience while at college, you will not get it at Morris.
Read MoreNone.
Read MoreNon existent to my knowledge
Read MoreVery few fraternities/sororities on campus due to the size of the school, but they are available.
Read Morenone

Titles similar to The Fifth Witness
Crime-fiction megastar Connelly can always be counted on to try something a little different. In The Reversal (2010), his last Mickey Haller novel, starring the L.A. lawyer who prefers to work out of his Lincoln Town Car, Connelly offered a tour de force of plotting on multiple levels. Here, he narrows the focus considerably, concentrating almost exclusively on what happens inside the courtroom but bringing to the traditional give-and-take of prosecutor, defender, judge, and jury an altogether more complex commingling of personality and legal strategy than is typically on view in legal thrillers. He accomplishes this with a particularly rich first-person narration in which Haller takes us through the courtroom drama as it happens, noting his blunders and praising himself for quick-thinking improvisations. It doesn't hurt, either, that the plot is meaty: a woman whom Haller was representing in a suit against the bank attempting to foreclose on her mortgage is accused of killing the bank official in charge of foreclosures. Combining ripped-from-the-headlines information on the mortgage crisis with a cast of characters that defies stereotypes at every turn of the plot, Connelly shows once again that he will never simply ride the wave of past success. And, neither, apparently, will Mickey Haller, as he reveals a shocking change of direction in the novel's final pages.
HIGH-DEMAND BACKSTORY: Connelly's latest Mickey Haller novel will benefit from the release in March of a movie version of The Lincoln Lawyer, the first Haller novel, starring Matthew McConaughey. 750,000 first printing.

LINCOLN — Not many Nebraska basketball followers realize how close sophomore point guard Benny Parker came last spring to becoming an ex-Husker.
Parker started 16 of 33 games a year ago, but struggled to adjust to major-college size and speed. He shot 35.6 percent from the field, 15.4 percent on 3-pointers and posted an assist-to-turnover ratio of 1.6 to 1.
By mid-January, opponents stopped guarding him on the perimeter.
"College was so much faster," Parker said Friday. "I couldn't adapt to the game as quickly as I thought I could."
More critical to Parker's future than his modest results were the two point guards joining the roster — Tai Webster, a freshman from New Zealand touted by some as a top 50-caliber recruit, and Deverell Biggs, a first-team junior college All-American.
So last March, Parker's end-of-season meeting with coach Tim Miles came with a come-to-Jesus moment: He was the No. 3 point guard for 2013-14 and may never play.
"I painted the worst-case scenario possible for him," Miles said.
Parker remembers every word.
"He told me if I wanted to transfer, that option was on the table," Parker said. "But I wanted to stay because I really like this group of guys. They are like my brothers."
Still, there were discussions behind the scenes on whether Parker would be back. When no alternative was found, he stayed, and now Miles couldn't be happier.
With Webster struggling and Biggs out of the program for disciplinary reasons, Parker has become the spark in a surge that has Nebraska (13-10, 5-6) alone in sixth place in the Big Ten entering Sunday's game at No. 9 Michigan State.
The 5-foot-9, 166-pounder from Kansas City, Kan., played 24 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's win against Illinois without a turnover. He scored four points and added four steals and an assist.
What drew the most attention, though, was Parker forcing Illinois star Rayvonte Rice into a shot-clock violation, sending the home crowd into a frenzy and Miles into a fist-pumping fit.
"Benny was as disruptive defensively as I've seen him ever," Miles said. "You could see them back off. That was exclusively Benny, and then everybody else fed off that.
"When your point-guard defense is good and aggressive and you can stand the ball up, everybody else's defense improves."
The coach's reaction went viral. Parker said someone tweeted him the video.
"He's always got moments like that during the game," Parker said. "It was just good to see he was finally happy."
Miles was happy with Parker's work at Northwestern a week ago, too.
After Nebraska fell behind 22-16 at halftime, Parker used his on-ball defensive skills to force turnovers and create nine points in transition during the 53-49 win. In 16 minutes, he had five points, two steals, an assist and no turnovers.
"We don't win that game," Miles said, "if we don't get those points."
Miles rarely tinkers with the starting lineup. So don't be surprised if Webster continues to start but Parker plays more minutes.
"He has earned those minutes," the coach said. "He's done a terrific job. I can't say enough about his resilience and his ability to battle and find a place on our team."
In-your-face defense is Parker's specialty, especially against bigger opponents, of which nearly everyone qualifies.
"I like to get in 'em a lot," he said. "They think I'm fouling, so they like to cry to the refs. I don't pay that no mind. I just keep doing it."
Just like Parker paid no mind to his outlook entering this season.
"I finally realized I had to put in a lot of extra work and play harder," he said, "and bring that defensive spark that Coach wants."

Titles similar to Galileo
"Have faith, Galileo, and go forth." So Kepler urged on his gifted Italian contemporary. But in this insightful biography, Heilbron shows readers that as Galileo heeded Kepler's urging, he went forth with faith not only in an ingeniously devised telescope but also in poetically inspired words. Readers see the often-forgotten literary side of the great astronomer, the side aflame with a passion for Dante and Ariosto just as ardent as his better-known enthusiasm for Euclid and Archimedes. Heilbron indeed reveals how Galileo's sometimes-combative advocacy of great literary art prepared him for the rhetorical task of winning converts to Copernican cosmology. For in defending the creative geometry of Dante's hell against hostile critics, Galileo honed his gift for well-crafted polemics, so priming himself for the task of championing a revolutionary scientific paradigm. For only by developing an imagination as capacious as Dante's was Galileo able to wrap his mind around a previously undreamed-of universe, governed by radically new heliocentric principles. Of course, many seventeenth-century clerics lacked Galileo's intellectual daring, and Heilbron teases out the various subplots swirling around the famous confrontation between Galileo and his ecclesiastical antagonists. A complete portrait illuminating how a bold pioneer forged surprising links between science and the humanities.

WASHINGTON -- The Supreme Court waded into the fight over same-sex marriage Tuesday, at a time when public opinion is shifting rapidly in favor of permitting gay and lesbian couples to wed, but 40 states don't allow it.
The court's first major examination of gay rights in 10 years began with a hearing on California's ban on same-sex marriage. On Wednesday, the justices will consider the federal law that prevents legally married gay couples from receiving a range of benefits afforded straight married Americans.
Actor-director Rob Reiner, who helped lead the fight against California's Proposition 8, was at the head of line Tuesday morning. Some people waited since Thursday - even through light snow - for coveted seats for the argument.
Both sides of the case were represented outside the courthouse. Supporters of gay marriage came with homemade signs including ones that read "a more perfect union" and "love is love."
Among the opponents was retired metal worker Mike Krzywonos, 57, of Pawtucket, R.I. He wore a button that read "marriage 1 man + 1 woman" and said his group represents the "silent majority."
The two California couples challenging the voter-approved ban on same-sex marriage in the nation's largest state also are at the court for the argument and are urging the justices to strike down not just the California provision, but constitutional amendments and statutes in every state that define marriage as the union of a man and a woman.
They envision the 21st century equivalent of the court's 1967 decision in Loving v. Virginia that struck down state bans on interracial marriages.
The Obama administration has weighed in on behalf of the challengers, following President Barack Obama's declaration of support for same-sex marriage last year and his invocation of gay rights at his inauguration in January.
Supporters of Proposition 8 say the court should respect the verdict of California voters who approved the ban in 2008 and let the fast-changing politics of gay marriage evolve on their own, through ballot measures and legislative action, not judicial decrees.
Same-sex marriage is legal in nine states and the District of Columbia. The states are Connecticut, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Vermont and Washington.
Thirty states ban same-sex marriage in their state constitutions, while ten states bar them under state laws. New Mexico law is silent on the issue.

Eco-dent Daily Care Original Mint -- 2 fl oz
Great product
I like this as it is non-toxic and effective. The only issue I have with this is the delivery system--if you dispense it the way it is designed to be dispensed, you waste a lot of the powder and it poofs all over. I have come to an accommodation, though. I wash my hands thoroughly, unscrew the cap, pour just a bit into the palm of my hand, dip my wet toothbrush bristles into it and brush. Works fine.

For Cleaner, Healthier Teeth & Gums
I've used this tooth powder, along with its mouthwash companion, for years, and they've kept my gums healthy and my teeth clean and white. I appreciate the pure and effective ingredients and the fact that a bottle lasts a long time!
May 6, 2013
I'm hooked on this!
Really makes your teeth feel clean, I alternate between this and power smile. This is good because it doesn't have the glycerin in it.

Teeth feel cleaner than with pastes
Lasts a long time - leaves my mouth feeling fresher than with pastes or even mouthwash. I don't even need to rinse. Great for backpacking.

Police were investigating reports of a gunman on the campus of Ball State University on Friday evening.
Officials originally tweeted (@Ballstate_Alert), "An individual in the Rec Center shouted there was a gun. UPD is securing and assessing situation in HP, Lewellen, Rec Center and the Arena."
Officials were stressing that it was not an active shooter situation. They also said there were no hostages.
Officials are still unclear if there was ever a gunman on campus.
It's was reported that an explosion was heard outside one of the perimeters. Authorities confirmed it was a service weapon that was accidentally discharged. No one was injured.
Officials gave the OK to resume normal activities after nearly 3 hours of investigating.
Jim Gaffigan was on campus Friday to perform at Emens Auditorium.

The New York Knicks failed to clinch a first-round series victory for a second straight game Wednesday night, falling 92-86 to the Boston Celtics at Madison Square Garden in Game 5 of their first-round series.
The loss cut the Knicks' lead in the best-of-seven series to 3 games to 2.
The Knicks started Game 5 on an 11-0 run, but they were outscored 45-28 over the rest of the half and trailed by six at halftime.
They trailed by as many as 15 in the fourth quarter.
The Knicks shot just 39.5 percent from the field as a team for the game. Carmelo Anthony led all scorers with 22 points, but he was just 8-for-24 from the field. Raymond Felton contributed 21 points for New York.
J.R. Smith, who returned after being suspended for Game 4, missed his first 10 shots and finished with 14 points on 3-for-14 shooting.
Five Celtics finished the game in double figures, led by Jeff Green with 18 points. Kevin Garnett contributed 16 points and 18 rebounds for Boston.
The Knicks will now head back to Boston to try again to clinch the series. Game 6 will tip off Friday night at 7 p.m.

- Gulf Coast, USA, Hurricanes Katrina and Rita [1]
Hurricanes Katrina and Rita made landfall in late 2005 and became one of the most destructive disasters in United States' history. The two hurricanes displaced more than a million residents, inflicted major damage to nearly 550,000 homes, and demolished hundreds of square miles of coastal land.Habitat for Humanity responded to the devastation by implementing Operation Home Delivery, which helped low-income, hurricane-affected families in Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas and Alabama achieve simple, decent, and affordable housing.
Today the Gulf Coast region is still recovering from these storms that exacerbated previous housing and economic challenges. Habitat's Gulf Coast affiliates continue to build houses in the affected area as part of the ongoing Hurricanes Katrina and Rita Recovery Effort.
- Pakistan, Earthquake [2]
A massive earthquake struck Pakistan and neighboring India and Afghanistan on Oct. 8, 2005. An estimated 3 million people became homeless as a result of the earthquake. Habitat distributed 800 winter survival kits, 599 blankets and 150 tents; constructed more than 400 dome-shaped transitional shelters and 346 permanent houses; provided sawmill services for more than 5,500 families, and continues to serve affected families. - Mexico and Central America, Hurricane Stan and flooding
Hurricane Stan hit Veracruz, Mexico, on October 4, 2005, and began generating separate storms that wreaked havoc throughout southern Mexico and parts of Central America. The heavy rainfall from the storms caused severe flooding and mudslides, affecting millions of people in Mexico, Guatemala and El Salvador. More than 500,000 people lost their homes.Nearly 200 families were assisted with new housing, repairs and rehabilitation in Quetzaltenango, Solosa, San Marcos and Jutiapa in Guatemala and Veracruz and Chiapas in Mexico. Response activities also included securing land to build new communities for villages that were completely destroyed by mudslides.
- Sierra Leone, Complex humanitarian emergency
The Republic of Sierra Leone experienced a traumatic armed civil conflict for more than a decade, from 1991 to 2002. Habitat for Humanity International provided shelter assistance to 500 vulnerable families (representing approximately 3,500 individuals) returning from refugee camps. This intervention facilitated the resettlement of areas which were abandoned during the conflict.
- Indian Ocean, Tsunami [3]
On December 26, 2004, a 9.0-magnitude undersea earthquake struck the western coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. The earthquake was the fourth largest since 1900. More than 225,000 deaths and disappearances were caused by the resulting tsunamis which struck and ravaged coastal regions all over the Indian Ocean. The scale and extent of the destruction of housing was unprecedented.Habitat has built, repaired and rehabilitated houses with families affected by the 2004 India Ocean tsunami in India, Indonesia, Sri Lanka and Thailand. To date, Habitat for Humanity has assisted more than 20,000 families with permanent housing and provided disaster mitigation training for almost 5,000 more.
- Caribbean, Multiple hurricanes
During 2004, the island countries of Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica and Grenada were devastated by hurricanes, incredibly heavy rains and strong winds. Habitat for Humanity worked with communities in some of the most severely affected areas of these Caribbean nations to help them rebuild their homes and their lives.In the Haitian communities of Fond Vertees, Les Cayes and Jacmel, Habitat worked with 130 local families to provide permanent housing solutions. In the Dominican Republic, nearly 100 families were assisted in the communities of Rio Mar, El Factor and Matancita. Throughout Jamaica, 210 families affected by Hurricane Ivan received assistance. A minimum of 155 low-income Grenadian families were also assisted with house repairs and construction skills training.
- Florida, USA, Storms
During hurricane season in 2004, thousands of families in many parts of Florida endured some of the most devastating hurricanes in recent history. In just six weeks, four massive storms pounded the state, tearing off roofs, knocking down walls and power lines, and leaving thousands homeless. Habitat for Humanity worked with communities throughout the state to build more than 60 new homes with affected families. - Angola, Complex humanitarian emergency
Over the course of nearly three decades, Angola struggled to survive one of the most protracted conflicts in recent history. During this period, more than 4 million people were displaced and 400,000 fled as refugees to neighboring countries.Subsequent peace accords opened the door for families to return to their communities, only to find widespread destruction and ruin. Many lived in cramped refugee camps and temporary shelters. There was an overwhelming need for decent, safe and affordable shelter for families looking to rebuild their lives and provide a future for their children.
Habitat for Humanity worked to support more than 500 families with innovative programs that combined housing and savings schemes through the Save & Build program.
- Burundi, Complex humanitarian emergency
Nearly 1,150 families were assisted with shelter in the Muyinga and Makamba provinces in Burundi after a decade-long civil war that displaced thousands of people and destroyed a quarter of a million homes.
- Tennessee, USA, Tornadoes
A tornado recovery program built homes for families affected by tornadoes that hit Jackson, Tennessee in May 2003. Through a series of partnerships, recovery homes were built as part of a broader alliance that supported up to 26 disaster-affected families in the area.
- Afghanistan, Complex humanitarian emergency and earthquake
In northern Afghanistan, Habitat for Humanity provided materials, tools and technical expertise to Afghan families needing to rebuild or repair their houses. Their homes were damaged by one of the worst complex disaster situations in the world that included armed conflict, civil unrest and a four-year drought.On March 25, 2002, a powerful earthquake exacerbated the situation, killing as many as 1,000 people and damaging thousands of homes in northern Afghanistan.
After 18 months of hard work in Afghanistan, nearly 335 families in the villages of Salbarun and Temorak in Balkh province received Afghan dome houses. In a partnership with Shelter for Life, Habitat also supported efforts to provide shelter assistance for up to 5,000 earthquake-affected families in Nahrin, Baghlan province.
- India, Gujarat earthquake
In partnership with other organizations, Habitat built homes for families left homeless when an earthquake shook the region in January 2001. The Habitat for Humanity project was completed in 2003 when 664 houses were built in the villages of Sikhra and Khumbariya.

Teaching Awards 2012
Scott Meinke, Amy Wolaver, David Rovnyak, Constance Ziemian, and Julie Gates
Ninety-six percent of Bucknell first-year students return as sophomores. This is due in no small part to the excellence of our faculty.
Each year the Office of the Provost has the opportunity to recognize superior teaching skills with four awards:
Katie Faull, professor of German and humanities, received the Christian R. and Mary F. Lindback Award for Distinguished Teaching.
Described as a mentor, an innovator and a role model, Faull is known for her creative teaching and scholarship, taking students well beyond their intellectual comfort zones to their lasting benefits. Since joining the faculty in 1986, she has made numerous contributions to general education and has taught Foundation Seminars, Residential College Seminars, Integrated Perspectives courses, GIS courses in the humanities, and more.
Faull also has been a generous collaborator, sharing her expertise and time with students and colleagues. Her research into local history — translating 18th-century Moravian diaries to uncover the alliance with the Iroquois Indian Tribes — extends a larger, cross-disciplinary program at the Environmental Center, highlighting the history of the Susquehanna River Valley. The quality of her scholarship has been recognized by such granting agencies as the National Endowment for the Humanities.
Er-Dong Hu, associate professor of dance, received the Class of 1956 Lectureship for Inspirational Teaching.
Described as a dance master, technical virtuoso and cross-cultural ambassador, Hu has shared his expertise with frequent guest teaching at universities here and abroad, and his choreography skills with dance commissions both national and international.
Hu joined the faculty in 1994, becoming Bucknell Dance Company concert director in 2001. Five years later, he led the Bucknell Dance Company trip to the International Ode to Peace Festival in China, the only U.S. representative invited to perform at the event.
Hu's students repeatedly reference him as one of the most inspirational professors they encountered at Bucknell, a faculty member who challenged and motivated them as dancers and individuals.
Two faculty members were recognized with the Presidential Award for Teaching Excellence.
David Evans, professor of psychology, received one of two Presidential Awards for Teaching Excellence.
Evans, who joined the faculty in 1998, has been instrumental in establishing the highly successful major in neuroscience. He was lauded as "a motivating and inspiring teacher in the classroom, exceptional in his ability to engage undergraduates in challenging clinical research. He also has been a key leader in the development of the Bucknell-Geisinger collaboration, including the Geisinger-Bucknell Autism and Developmental Medicine Center.
A frequently published scholar, Evans teaches courses that require students to consider the complexity of brain-behavior relationships and develop their ethical and clinical-reasoning skills. Graduates seek his guidance and support as a mentor well beyond their time at Bucknell.
Joseph Tranquillo, associate professor of biomedical and electrical engineering, received one of two Presidential Awards for Teaching Excellence.
Nominated by colleagues in both colleges, Tranquillo is described as a passionate professor who works tirelessly and selflessly on behalf of his students and colleagues. One example of his novel teaching approach is "kinesthetic learning," in which he uses physical activities, such as passing shredded paper around the room, to demonstrate the concept of how brain signals pass from neuron to neuron.
In addition to teaching within his specialty of biomedical engineering, he also has co-taught a course in Comparative Humanities on Brain, Mind, and Culture. Since joining the faculty in 2005, he has been involved in numerous interdisciplinary projects including land-mine sniffing rats, building biomedical instruments, and a theatre project about living with autism.
Mary Beth Gray, associate professor of geology and 1984 graduate of Bucknell, received the William P. Boger Jr. M.D. Award for Excellence in Teaching in the Natural Sciences.
The recipient of grants from the National Science Foundation and other agencies, Gray has been described as a consummate teacher scholar who teaches demanding foundational and advanced courses at the intersection of geology and engineering. She was nominated by colleagues in the geology and civil engineering departments as well as students and alumni.
Gray has supervised multiple undergraduate research projects, ranging from potentially seismically active fault zones at Yucca Mountain in Nevada to Central Appalachian tectonics. She has led many field trips and is noted for mentoring undergraduates, particularly women in the sciences and engineering.

iP5 power button issue
Im having an issue with the sleep/wake button where it wont respond when i press it. It usually works, but every 5 or so clicks it wont turn on/off, which annoys the heck outta me. I was wondering if anyone here thinks a genius would be able to help me with such a minor issue, or if im being a bit ridiculous by trying to get it fixed.

I have an issue similar... But for me, my switch only works at all if pressed on the left side. It has been so since I bought it 2 months ago- but I have just not made time to get back to the Apple store. I think it is worth at least an ask at the genius bar. If you go, let us know your results...

mine did the same thing.
from the start out of the box, the button didnt sit firm, it had wiggle and didnt sit level, which i was somewhat ok with. Then 2 weeks ago the right side of the button went dead. Called Apple, made the appointment, genius looked at it, went back and got me another one. Took 10 mins and I was on my way. Got a week 50 production phone from the white box. |

This has just started happening to me too. Mine is a launch day IP5 which has worked flawlessly in all respects. However the last 3-4 days I click it to wake/sleep the phone and nothing happens. Click it again and it works. Its not too bad at the moment but I would imagine it will get progressively worse.
I also have 1 dead pixel which has been there since launch (the pixels are so small I could barely see it) so I guess now is a good time to get it swapped out. Good thing Apple are super cool when it comes to faults.

I went back to the Apple store- before even looking at it, they told me Id probably be getting a replacement phone. A few questions, tested it for 2 seconds, and said, Ill be back with a new phone. Just like that. Simple. New phone is perfect. Take it in if you havent already

Rule #1. When your under warranty iPhone or iDevice is not functioning properly and you have restored/reset/ to no avail, TAKE IT TO AN APPLE STORE. They will fix it, ESPECIALLY with a hardware failure.

I just hate wasting all these screen protectors and stuff. It's really a hassle for me because my job requires me to have a sticker on mine and it shows void when you try to peel it off. |

The movie "Lee Daniels' The Butler" arrives in theaters this weekend with Ohio roots. The screenplay, about a butler who served under eight presidents, is based on an article that Miami University alumnus Wil Haygood wrote for the Washington Post.
That article sprang from an encounter Haygood had when he was covering the 2008 election for the Post. In North Carolina, he met some women whose fathers had stopped talking to them because they supported Barack Obama. Convinced that Obama would win the election with that kind of support, Haygood set about finding someone who worked in the White House when segregation was still in effect.
"I was looking for a painter, a laundry person, a dishwasher, a butler or maid. The White House doesn't give out any information about who has worked there through the years," he said.
Combing through his sources, Haygood found Eugene Allen, a Butler who worked in the White House, starting with President Harry Truman in the 1940s and ending with Ronald Regan in the 1980s.
"He took me down into the basement where he had an archive," Haygood said of Allen. "It was like being dropped into a room at the Smithsonian. There were all these photographs of him with the presidents he worked for and celebrities who walked through the White House," including Frank Sinatra and Michael Jackson.
"It was like Forrest Gump, but a genuine, real-life character," Haygood said.
When Haygood's article appeared on the front page of the Washington Post, "within 24 hours I had phone calls from 15 movie producers in Hollywood and New York," he said.
The movie was directed by Lee Daniels, an Oscar nominee for the film "Precious," and stars Forest Whitaker as a fictionalized version of Eugene Allen, called Cecil Gaines in the movie.
"The butler lived and worked at the White House during some of the most tumultuous times in American history. He was there to hear the echoes and the ripples of the murder of Emmett Till, the murder of Medgar Evers, the integration of Ole Miss, the assassination of Dr. (Martin Luther) King, the Vietnam War, the Cold War, man on the moon. He heard the reaction of all those things from the center of power," Haygood said.
Haygood is very pleased with the film and has adapted his article into a full-length book called "The Butler: A Witness to History."
"Eugene Allen was a stitch in the American flag. He was a small stitch, but a beautiful stitch. It takes men like him, with his type of genuine commitment, to make the country as great as it is," Haygood said.
What: Wil Haygood, the journalist and Miami University alumnus whose article inspired the feature film "The Butler"
When: 3 to 5 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 18
Where: Harriet Tubman Theater, The National Underground Railroad Freedom Center, 50 E. Freedom Way, Cincinnati
