Services - Printing & Mailing FAQs
Where can I get a copy of the University logo?
High resolution, professional print-quality files of the University of Maine logos can be obtained by contacting the Department of University Relations, 581.3758. To obtain a copy of the University of Maine Branding & Style Guide, visit umaine.edu/marketingandcommunications/brandstandards/. This link will open in a new window.
Why can't I use a GIF file in my print job?
The Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) is a file format used to display graphics and images in HTML documents over the World Wide Web. GIFs are low resolution (72 dpi), are limited to 256 colors, and use a compression formula designed to minimize file size and electronic transfer time. While great for the Web environment, GIF resolution is too low for good quality printing.
What file type should I send with my job?
When requesting a Xeroxing job through Print On Demand, you should send a high-resolution .PDF file. When requesting a print job, you should send, not only a high-resolution .PDF but a copy of the native desktop publishing file including all linked files, fonts, and images as well as a mock up of your job to be used for visual reference.
What design or desktop publishing applications does Printing Services accept?
Printing Services uses the Adobe CS2 and CS3 professional suites of applications, including Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop and Quark, all of which yield excellent end results. We can also work with PageMaker, Freehand, and Microsoft applications.
What is a Process Color?
Process colors are reproduced by printing overlapping dots (halftone screens) of cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (abbreviated as CMYK) inks to simulate a large number of different colors.
What is a Spot Color?
Spot colors are printed with premixed inks on an offset press. A spot color printed at 100% is a solid color and has no dot pattern. A tint is a lightened spot and is created by printing smaller halftone dots of the base color. This is also called "screening."
What does PMS stand for?
PMS stands for the Pantone Matching System, the most popular color matching system in the printing industry. PMS is considered SPOT COLOR. A true PMS color is defined by a mixture of inks that will provide a specific color. Pantone, PMS and the Pantone Matching System are all trademarks of Pantone, Inc. The official colors of the University of Maine are PMS 289 (dark "University blue") and PMS 292 (light "University blue").
What resolution should my images be?
Image files (.jpg) should be formatted at 300 pixels per inch (aka dots per inch). Flat art files (.tiff, .eps) should be formatted at 600 pixels per inch (aka dots per inch). PDF files should be saved as "Print Quality."
What's the difference between RGB and CMYK and what difference does it make?
Red, Green, and Blue (RGB) are the primary colors of light. Colors are created throughout this spectrum by adding or transmitting varying intensities of red, green, and/or blue light. Cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (CMYK), create a spectrum by absorbing and reflecting light. RGB is therefore referred to an additive color spectrum while CMYK is reflective. RGB is optimally viewed onscreen where the 16 million colors it can produce appear stunningly vibrant. CMYK can produce about 64,000 colors by comparison, which is why images that seemed so rich on screen can appear dull in print. To get your best color match, create or convert your file to CMYK before sending us your file. Linked image files need to be converted separately.
What does "bleed" mean?
A bleed refers to an image, color, or text that runs off the edge of the printed page. A bleed on a print job requires that the job be run on larger paper. Please allow 1/8 inch beyond the edge of your document on the edges that bleed. A job without a bleed will have margins.
What is "preflight?"
Preflight is the process of checking your desktop publishing program to ensure all documents related to your project, such as PostScript, linked text, fonts, and graphics, are included in the package you send to us. Printing Services charges a front-end processing fee to convert RGB files to CMYK, correct bleeds, ensure raster image processing, and make other file corrections that contribute to the cost of your printing project. Designers can avoid these costly delays, including the cost of multiple proofs, by simply running the preflight built into desktop publishing programs, such as Quark, InDesign, or PageMaker.
What is "packaging?"
Packaging is a function of desktop publishing programs that prepares your project files for transfer to Printing Services. Prior to packaging your project, run a preflight check and correct any font issues, remove extraneous elements, confirm file links, and identify problems with raster image processing—such as corrupt fonts or graphics. Once file issues have been corrected as a result of the preflight process, package your project and burn the resulting project file, which will include the native file along with a related font folder, PostScript files, and graphics to a CD to deliver to Printing Services, with a mock up and your print order. Make a backup of the CD to file with your records as well.
What is a "mock up?"
A mock up is a hardcopy printout showing how your project design is supposed to look when completed. A mock up is typically a laser printed document that has been trimmed, taped, and folded to the final project dimensions. Printing Services uses a mock up for visual comparison to ensure we are meeting the client's expectations.
Does Printing Services laminate posters and other documents that are not printed at Printing Services?
We are happy to provide you with laminating services, whether we printed your document or not. Printing Services cannot, however, accept liability for any damage caused in the lamination process for documents we do not print in-house.
What is CASS?
A mandatory requirement for automation discounts, CASS Certified (Coding Accuracy Support System) software standardizes an address using standard abbreviations, correct spelling, and proper format. The software then assigns a ZIP + 4 Code from the USPS ZIP + 4 database, to any standardized address within a known block range. Only those addresses that have confirmable information will be assigned a proper ZIP + 4. Addresses that do not have confirmable information will not receive a ZIP + 4 and will be identified as an "invalid" address and returned for corrective action.
What is presorted standard mail?
Presorted Standard Mail refers to mailings of at least 200 addressed pieces (or 50 pounds) of mail sorted by ZIP in ascending order and prepared according to postal standards. Presorted Standard Mail is a worksharing program. When the consumer does some of the sorting and preparation, it saves the USPS time and money and those savings are passed along to the consumer.
How does the size of my mailer affect the postage rate?
The size of your mailer will determine the rates available. See our Mailing Regulations page for summary charts and postal rates for various size mailers. For a bulk mailing, all the pieces in your mailing must be in the same processing category—all postcards, letters, flats, or parcels.
Is there a "no mail" list for employees?
Printing Services facilitates customer access to the most current, campus-wide mailing lists, generated every 4 to 6 weeks by the Department of Human Resources. We help our customers communicate with target campus audiences by customizing a mailing list to meet their dissemination needs. Because the master list for campus addresses is controlled by Human Resources, Printing Services is unable to maintain a "do not mail" list.
Can I sell advertising to cover my printing costs and still qualify for a non-profit mailing?
To be eligible for mailing at a non-profit rate, your document must:
- qualify as a periodical publication with a title,
- be "dated" and published at regular intervals at least four times a year,
- be formed of printed sheets,
- have an identification statement,
- have a known office of publication,
- be a general publication, requester publication, or publication of an institution or society,
- contain a minimum of 25% non-advertising content.
Ads must promote a company's full line of products or services only, and not include specific products or services, including:
- insurance offers,
- travel,
- credit cards.
Example: Eligible advertisement
A non-profit organization's newsletter includes an advertisement for: "You-Bet'cha-Bait Company offering a full line of fresh and saltwater, fresh and frozen bait to the Northeast since 1998" is considered an advertisement for You-Bet'cha-Bait's general business.
Example: Restricted (ineligible) advertisement
A non-profit organization's newsletter includes an advertisement containing the text: "You-Bet'cha-Bait Company—Refillable Chum-Chuck Barrels starting at $23.95!" is considered an advertisement for a specific product rather than the company's full product line.
For more information and specific examples of what qualifies as eligible advertising, please visit the United States Postal Service, Publications 417—Nonprofit Standard Mail Eligibility. This link will open in a new window.

A Wilmington College (WC) cross country runner died Tuesday evening, three days after collapsing at an intercollegiate meet over the weekend in Indiana.
Wilmington officials say junior Jenna Parlette had remained in critical condition since arriving at the Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis.
Described as a standout runner, Parlette was leading the race at Franklin College and within sight of the finish line when she suffered a serious medical incident.
WC President Jim Reynolds shared news of Parlette's passing with the campus late Tuesday afternoon.
"Jenna was a wonderful student who left an indelible impression on many who she knew on campus," Reynolds said. "We all grieve for a life lost so early."
According to college officials, Parlette holds the school record in both the 5,000 and 10,000-meter runs in track and is a five-time All-Ohio Athletic Conference designee in track and cross county. She was named All-Great Lakes Region after the 2012 cross country season.
She also earned Academic All-OAC status and was an All-Academic selection by the United States Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches' Association.

THANK YOU: Designer I just want to thank the designer (and the buyer) for having the guts to make something that actually fits a woman's figure NOT a little boys. I have looked in so many places to find jeans and pants that fit a woman at the natural waist (yes, these do, even though they are "high waisted"; a high waist would fit where the lace top ends in front and jeans that fit this way are NOT comfortable). PLEASE continue to buy these (and the 'high-waisted' trousers, as well). July 31, 2014
In love! These jeans are super cute and SO flattering! They fit perfectly and the high rise is so cute! July 13, 2014
Absolutely must have! I LOVE LOVE LOVE these jeans! I got them in every shade and color, they are so comfy and sexy! I can wear them to work and also take them clubbing. I love how slimming and flattering they are on my tummy. June 23, 2014

From Rasmussen: (via political wire):
When pollsters informed voters that the National Organization for Women "is concerned about Casey on the abortion issue" 24% of Casey's initial voters "changed their mind upon hearing this news" and half actually switched to Santorum. "The change was dramatic enough that, having heard the new information, voters favored Santorum by a five-point margin (46% to 41%)."
Glad to see we're protecting those marginals.
UPDATE: Whoa, there's quite a backlash in the comments. Here's what I understand about PA politics. There are a bunch of moderate Republican single issue voters in the Philly suburbs. These are women who want low taxes and are pro-choice. They will vote for the pro-choice candidate, as they did for Specter and Kerry in 2004. When candidates are equal on the choice issue, they will vote for the Republican.
UPDATE AGAIN: A Quinnipiac poll also came out which shows Casey with the worst head-to-head results in a year. On the abortion question, this poll doesn't have conclusive results. While it asks whether Democrats would switch votes in the primary to other relatively unserious candidates based on this single issue, it doesn't ask Republican pro-choicers about the general, and those are the single issue voters that I'm talking about.

Best Boxing Movie: Great White Hype: I loved Samuel L. Jackson in this movie! I like his character better than Pulp Fiction. It was an all star cast. Peter Burg as Irish Terry Coughlin, Damon Waynes, Kadeem Hardison, Jamie Fox, Bert Sugar. It was a great movie. Cheech Martin was even in it! Great movie. Million Dollar Baby! Well done, well written and well acted!
Worse Boxing Movie: Gladiator starring Cuba Gooding Jr. The worse movie I had to watch. Rocky comes in a close second. Diggstown I had issues with, the writing sucked, it was trying to be a comedy as well as a drama and it didn't mix well. And that movie Omar Epps ( (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drag.gif) ) and Meg Ryan. Awful.

You always seem to defend the nonsense of this girl. Seriously, Rocky 5 and the latest one with Tarver may not have been the greatest, but to say all of them were the worst, is a bit of a stretch.
Rocky movies made people like boxing, even the ones who knew little to nothing about it. She's just a clueless fan with an opinion, seriously...
*On another note, The Fighter was actually worth watching, and I've watched it several times since seeing it at the movies...and I rarely go the movies.

Quick DIY Vibrating Lock Pick
Author: Jared Bouck
Est Construction Time: 0.5 Hr
Required Skill Level: Super Easy!
Often when it comes to true invention and discovery, crossing the line of ethics of the day leads to great discoveries. There seems to be several areas of humanity that create social boundaries preventing discoveries of all types. Lets all take a moment to reflect on the nature of humanity.. Ok that was enough of that! Supposed ethical boundaries have often stymied the progression of insight both to our surroundings, but also into our self's. It is in one of these perceived dark recesses of humanity that I have felt like delving into with this project. Any type of project that effects perception of security and stability of life is never popular. While lock picking is nothing new, for those who know nothing about it, it often shocks and scares people with its ease and sharp reality.

Greensburg Daily News
Greensburg —
In celebration of Black History Month, local historian and author, William O. Smith, shared Decatur County's participation in the Underground Railroad with the Daily News.
Smith explained that the overall consensus of Decatur County was abysmally anti-black in the 19th century.
Indiana settlers were immigrating from "breeder states" such as Kentucky and Virginia, where the "overstock children" of slaves on small farms were still being sold — these were the same slave owners moving to Indiana and Decatur County.
Indiana also passed several laws which made the message clear that free blacks were not welcome in the Hoosier State.
Article Thirteen in the Indiana constitution, 1851, outlined that employers of blacks would be fined, and that free blacks were to leave the state. The article persisted for nearly 30 years.
Even the "Decatur County" Anti-slavery Society would have been more accurately the "Kingston" Anti-Slavery Society, according to William O. Smith. The abolitionists were primarily centralized in Kingston. Smith said that Greensburg had no role in helping fugitive escapees because a major trade road, "old Michigan road," was active at night (The Anti-slavery Society should not be confused with the Colonization Society of 1850, said Smith, which wanted to fund sending blacks "back to Africa".).
That isn't to say there weren't dedicated abolitionists.
The 1838 minutes of the Anti-Slavery Society described the death of Reverend P. Lovejoy, who was murdered in Alton for speaking and printing against slavery.
Quakers were also not the leaders in the Indiana underground, said Smith, but Baptists, Methodists and Presbyterians.
The prominent Decatur County Snelling settlement would also play its important role in helping fugitives escape to Canada.
Despite Indiana not being a slave state during the time of Snelling's prominence, whites were still obligated to return the escaped "property" or else face prosecution for assisting an escaped slave.
Fugitives also faced the threat of slave hunters, which became a lucrative business of bounty-hunting for freemen and fugitives alike. Fugitives were not truly free until they crossed into Canada.
Regardless of the odds, the Snelling settlement, Miles Meadows, and the Donnell, Hamilton, McCoy and other white families would assist between 125 to 320 or more slaves escape persecution.
The estimation of 320, said Smith, would have taken place over a 30-year period. Against the 100,010 slaves who fled to Canada, 320 is an incredibly small number.
The Snelling settlement was a unique entity until Article Thirteen was passed.
Smith said Indiana historians have dismissed the Snelling settlement as a community of escaped refugees. Smith's research into Decatur County archives presents a different story.
In 1823 a black pioneer settler, Joseph Snelling, traveled from Kentucky and was among the first Decatur County settlers. He purchased 58 acres of land from the United States government and settled with seven or eight children (but no apparent wife) in Fugit Township, east of Clarksburg.
By 1850, the settlement would grow to 270 residents, crossing the Decatur-Franklin County line to Buena Vista. Eight black people would be listed as property owners, and of the 170 residents on the Decatur County side in the Snelling settlment, 65 were born in Decatur County.
Those who were not land owners would pay property taxes on wagons, cattle, and horses.
A colony of refugees would not be listed as land owners and tax payers, said Smith.
Another fact Smith uncovered was that in 1845, a black woman named Jane Speed owned 80 acres of land — a remarkable achievement considering not only her race but also her gender.
The Snelling settlement would disintegrate after Article Thirteen came into being. The article demanded that black residents evacuate the state, so the settlement honored the new constitutional law.
Black history in Decatur County is invariably centered on white abolitionists. There are not many black first-hand accounts of the Decatur County Underground Railroad, according to Smith, and the vast majority of Smith's discoveries come from records manned by wealthy white land owners.
If any readers would like to express their thoughts on Black History Month, feel free to write a letter to the editor, at firstname.lastname@example.com, or 135 S. Franklin Street.

CNHI News Service
PITTSBURGH, Pa. — Since 1896, when industrialist Andrew Carnegie decided to mount an international exhibition of contemporary art in his newly built Pittsburgh museum, some of the world's most relevant artists have participated in what has since become a venerable setting for exciting and influential new works in painting, sculpture, photography, film and more.
Carnegie missed the claim of mounting the world's oldest international exhibition of contemporary art by a single year when the Venice Biennale beat him to the punch in 1895. Nevertheless, among the thousands of artists whose works have been showcased in the International are Mary Cassatt, Jackson Pollock, Henry Moore, Auguste Rodin and Camille Pissaro -- the list goes on and on.
Originally held annually but mounted every three to five years since 1982, the 2013 International features over 200 works by 35 artists from 19 countries. To assemble the exhibit's eclectic art pieces, three curators traveled the globe from Basel and Beijing to Tokyo, Vancouver, Yokohama and Zagreb, talking to artists, taking in exhibits, scouring studios and galleries and "engaging in endless conversations with one another" in the words of co-curator, Tina Kukieski.
On a recent drive to the museum, my eye caught a glimpse of Phyllida Barlow's (England) "TIP," a nearly 40-foot tall jumbled assemblage of wooden poles and colored cloth that stands just outside the main entrance, positioned between a Henry Moore sculpture and Richard Serra's towering steel sculpture "Carnegie," itself an acquisition from the 1985 International.
The 2013 International is spread out throughout the museum into unconventional spaces like the café and Grand Staircase. At the beginning of my visit, I found one of this year's International's most fascinating pieces in the Hall of Sculpture, where Pedro Reyes (Mexico) took weapons and guns confiscated from drug raids in his native country and ingeniously transformed them into abstract, mechanical musical instruments, electronically wired to play intermittently.
Looking upward to the hall's balcony, I spotted Nicole Eisenman's (France now living in New York) fanciful, comedic, foreboding and apprehensive sculptures sharing the balustrade with the museum's collection of classic plaster casts of ancient Greek and Romans statuary. The exhibit also includes 19 unorthodox, sexually charged paintings by Eisenman, winner of the 2013 International's prestigious Carnegie Prize.
Fun, entertaining, yet full of socio-political innuendo is Rokni Haerizadeh's (Iran now living in Dubai) "Reign of Winter," an animated video of the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton. The artist transforms actual media footage of the royal wedding by carefully hand-painting and drawing over each image to create fantastical video clips where humans are refitted with phantasmagoric animal heads or bodies.
Along a wall leading off from the lobby, artist He An (Beijing, China) installed part of his ongoing project "What Makes Me Understand What I Know?" in which he takes neon light characters, stolen from signage in various Chinese cities, and reassembles them to form the names of his father and a favorite Japanese actress.
Just through the entrance doors to the Scaife Galleries, four, large earth-toned cubes by Lara Favaretto (Italy) explore the effect of dissolution and decay of works of art. Each made of nearly 700 pounds of compressed confetti, the cubes will gradually disintegrate over time, representing the transience of material objects, much like a Tibetan Buddhist mandala.
Exploring the crossover between art and entertainment, Taryn Simon's (New York) "Birds of the West Indies" is an assemblage of 190 color photographs of the weapons, cars and actresses who starred in James Bond films. Each identically-sized photo is framed in black paper and mounted in a straight line across the gallery walls, creating what Kukielski calls an "unintentional film strip" format.
The photo ensemble's title gets its name from Ian Fleming's choice of the moniker James Bond for his 007 character, taken from an ornithologist named James Bond credited for writing a book titled "Birds of the West Indies."
Another photographic installation eponymously titled "Homesteading" in a hallway just off the Scaife lobby by Zoe Strauss (Philadelphia) focuses on the residents of Homestead, once a major Carnegie Steel mill and site of the notorious 1892 steel workers strike. The photographic essay chronicles how the lives of the residents have been shaped by the mill and its closing in 1986.
With so much to see, media relations manager, Jonathan Gaugler said that visitors can easily spend a day taking in not only the 2013 International but also the museum's permanent collection, much of it drawn from the past 55 Internationals.

The sudden showing of porcine affection from Principal Dennis Willingham was a reward for the students reaching their goal of raising $1,000 during a recent penny drop at the school.
"It really wasn't as bad as I thought it would be," Willingham said. "The pig didn't even have bad breath."
Willingham said taking part in Friday's bizarre assembly was worth it to see the kids' reaction.
"This was all about our students. If they can raise $1,000, I can kiss a pig," he said.
The Oakman Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) held the penny drop to raise funds for its "Wildcat Cash" program, which rewards students for their good behavior.
"We have a cart that is full of goodies, and the kids earn 'Wildcat Dollars' and can spend them each Friday on an item or two," said Jennifer Kimbrell, current PTO president. "It's something the kids really seem to like and we enjoy doing it."
Kimbrell, who has three children at Oakman Middle, said she volunteers at the school every day. Kimbrell and several other members of the PTO also rewarded students for participating in the penny drop by taking pies to the face.
"The kids did a great job and met their goal," Kimbrell said. "This was the least I can do."
Willingham said he was pied in the face last year and prefered kissing the pig.
"When they put that pie in my face last year, it was up my nose and in my ears. It was terrible," he said. "I would much rather kiss the pig."
Willingham praised the PTO for the work the group does at the school.
"Our PTO is so active. They are constantly involved, and that means so much to our school. I appreciate the work they do," he said.
Several other teachers, and even Kimbrell, had also agreed to kiss the pig as well.
"I took a pie to the face and kissed a pig today. I hope these kids know how much I care about them," she said.
The pig, named Piper, was on loan from Pet Depot in Jasper.
"We want to thank them for letting us borrow Piper for the afternoon," Kimbrell said. "Now someone can go buy her."

BOSTON, Mass. (May 31, 2006) – Cone Inc., a cause marketing firm, has donated its services pro bono to help raise money in conjunction with Coinstar Inc. to benefit low-income families affected by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Called Making Change for Katrina, the campaign encourages people across the country to donate collected spare change through Coinstar. Proceeds from Making Change for Katrina go directly to Habitat for Humanity International, a nonprofit organization that builds simple, decent housing in partnership with people in need.
According to Coinstar Inc., idle change – unused nickels, quarters, dimes and pennies – in United States homes adds up to more than $10.5 billion – enough to help build thousands of homes for victims of Katrina. Participants can donate their spare change using one of the more than 12,000 coin collection centers found in supermarkets nationwide. Users choose the "donate" option from the onscreen menu, select "Making Change for Katrina" as the charity of choice, pour in the coins and take the tax-deductible receipt.
"Making Change for Katrina gives everyone a chance to help," said Chris Clarke, senior vice president for Communications at Habitat. "From the few pennies of allowance saved by a young person to the mounds of change adults empty from their pockets and purses daily, no gift is too modest or too great. We urge people everywhere to give what they can, as often as they can. Each of us has the ability to make change for families who have lost virtually everything but their hope and dreams."
In a nationwide poll commissioned by Cone Inc., a Boston-based firm that links companies and causes, 64 percent of Americans gave money to aid in Gulf Coast relief efforts, and nearly nine out of 10 of them would donate again if they knew how their dollars were going to be spent. Additionally, among those willing to support hurricane victims a second time, more than half would consider donating their spare change.
"This campaign is not about writing a check or making tremendous financial sacrifice," said Carol Cone, chairman for Cone Inc. "All people have to do is gather their idle change to make a difference. If we collect just 1 percent of the estimated $10 billion in coins secreted away in jars, drawers and pockets, we can raise $100 million to build critically needed homes in partnership with devastated Gulf Coast families. Imagine if we inspired 2 percent of the households! Our goal is to move millions to take this simple action to help thousands of families. This was the worst natural disaster in American history. It is not over. It demands an ongoing response at a national and grassroots level."
Making Change for Katrina will host a national tour to increase awareness of the dire need for affordable housing in the Gulf and to collect spare change. Launching in Boston on June 28, 2006, the mobile tour will travel throughout the United States, visiting such cities as Chicago, Charlotte, Dallas, Denver, Las Vegas, Los Angeles and Seattle. At each stop, volunteers will frame a "Making Change" Habitat home for delivery to pre-approved Habitat families in the Gulf.
Additional program elements include innovative youth initiatives such as an in-school curriculum created by the Discovery Educator Network and on-campus student fund-raising programs through Habitat for Humanity. Online advertising, broadcast public service announcements, posters and brochures will raise awareness of the issue and engage Americans. Moreover, a Making Change for Katrina Web site will soon feature how-to activities and ideas to encourage community and local fund-raising group participation, as well as tips for parents to introduce their children to philanthropy.
Cone, creator of the program, is serving as the project's director on a pro bono basis. Joining Cone are more than a dozen organizations also donating their services, including brand identity, PSAs, celebrity participation, Web site development, grassroots marketing and communications.

Microsoft is pushing Azure cloud service to the 5,000 attendees at its management conference this week, encouraging them to take advantage of the system now for specific tasks but to keep in mind that it fits into a full-blown hybrid-cloud framework that may become more attractive to them over time.
During the keynote of Microsoft Management Summit 2013 the company announced that customers can now use Active Directory that is based within the Azure cloud to gate access to resources hosted there.
[ Stay on top of the cloud with InfoWorld's "Cloud Computing Deep Dive" special report. Download it today! | From Amazon to Windows Azure, see how the elite 8 public clouds compare in InfoWorld Test Center's review. | For the latest news and happenings, subscribe to the Cloud Computing Report newsletter. ]
[DEPENDABILITY: Should Azure customers worry about reliability? | HELP: Microsoft issues free tool it says will cut Azure costs | RELATED: Microsoft Azure overtakes Amazon's cloud in performance test]
The company says it has also extended the reach of its System Center Management platform to provide insight into the performance of resources hosted within Azure. And customers can now use Azure's global points of presence to find out how well customer-facing services are performing to form a user's perspective around the world.
These new services are a lure to get businesses familiar with Azure and, Microsoft hopes, to adopt its overarching model for hybrid clouds called Cloud OS, which blends resources hosted in private clouds, in public clouds hosted by other service providers and in Azure, making them accessible to users as if they are all in the same location.
This enables creation of "data centers without boundaries," says Vice President of Microsoft Windows Server and Systems Center Group Brad Anderson. "A lot of you are making decisions on what you're cloud platform is going to be," he says. "Let us be that cloud platform."
The platform is made up of Windows Server, Systems Center and SQL server which can run as a private cloud or as a public cloud run by third-party service provider and is the backbone of Azure. It is that consistent platform that can enable, for example, creating supplemental SQL storage in Azure on the fly as more space is needed, Microsoft says.
Running Azure gives Microsoft insight into what is needed to run a cloud and that is reflected in developments of the products that make it up, Anderson says. Cloud services Microsoft runs include Office 365, Skype, MSN, Outlook.com, XboxLive, SkyDrive, and Bing.
To make Azure more attractive as a supplement to Microsoft's cloud products that businesses already own, Microsoft announced several new offerings:

A 19-year-old South Daytona woman is accused of stabbing a stranger at a Christmas party nine times after he allegedly made fun of her boyfriend, police say.
Desiree Kleinow, 19, has been charged with attempted murder and is being held at the Volusia County Branch Jail without bond.
"Officers responding to the scene said there was blood on the Christmas tree and blood on the presents," South Daytona Police Lt. Zack Pickett said.
Police said it happened inside Kleinow's aunt's apartment off Reed Canal Road on Tuesday morning.
The victim, Joshua Stonaker, 30, allegedly called Kleinow's boyfriend, Jason Ojeda, names such as "Juan Valdez," according to a police report.
"There was a lot of drinking and alcohol involved," Pickett said. "Through the course of the night, Josh started making jokes at Desiree's boyfriend's expense. At the end of the night, they came to turns and agreed with each other and shook hands."
But it apparently didn't sit well with Kleinow.
Hours later, on Christmas morning, police said Kleinow stabbed the victim nine times.
"She stabbed him in the neck, in the chest and in the back," Pickett said.
Stonaker was taken to Halifax Health Medical Center and released Tuesday night.
Witnesses told police that after the stabbing, Kleinow dropped to her knees and began sobbing.
Fox 35 tried speaking with Kleinow's aunt and the victim, who both live in the same apartment complex. However, neither answered the door or responded to messages.
Police said they tried to interview Kleinow on Christmas Day after arresting her, but the police report stated that she was "out of control."
"It's really unfortunate, but sometimes when alcohol gets involved your emotions get the best of you," Pickett said.

Specialty Crop Programs Examined by House Ag Subcommittee
The House Agriculture Subcommittee on Horticulture, Research, Biotechnology and Foreign Agriculture met to examine specialty crop priorities for the 2013 Farm Bill Wednesday. Growers and representatives of the specialty crop community spoke on the effectiveness of current programs within the subcommittee's jurisdiction. Subcommittee Chair Austin Scott says growth in the specialty crops sector can play an integral role in our economic recovery. As farm policy is examined and the Agriculture Committee prepares to reauthorize the farm bill - Scott says it's essential to expand on past successes with programs that help grow the nation's economy.
Ranking Member Kurt Schrader says Wednesday's hearing was an important step forward in crafting a 21st century farm bill that invests in programs that generate significant domestic crop value. He says specialty crops as a whole make up nearly half of all domestic farm gate crop value. Schrader says it's important to recognize the need to substantially fund specialty crop programs in order to enhance the competitiveness of American agriculture and strengthen it going forward.

|Report: Climate Change Causing a Crisis for Wildlife in Ohio
|Wednesday, January 30, 2013 3:31 PM
By Mary Kuhlman • Ohio News Connection
COLUMBUS – The writing is on the wall when it comes to the impact of climate change on wildlife in the Buckeye State, according to www.nwf.org/climatecrisis.a new report.
Research from the National Wildlife Federation finds that rising water levels and increasing water temperatures in Lake Erie are among the events caused by global warming and are altering the wildlife habitat in Ohio.
Dr. Amanda Staudt, a senior scientist for the federation, says rising temperatures also mean more heavy rainfall events in the region.
"One thing that happens is we get a lot more runoff into our rivers and streams that can then run off into the Great Lakes," Staudt says, "and that brings pollutants and nutrients, and contaminants and sediment into those lakes as well."
Heavy rain is also contributing to harmful algae blooms in Lake Erie and causing oxygen-depleted "dead zones," Staudt says. She says policies are needed quickly to confront these threats. Suggestions in the report include a goal to cut carbon pollution by 50 percent by 2030, transitioning to cleaner energy sources and state-level energy-efficiency standards to help reduce harmful emissions.
The report recommends promoting climate-smart approaches to conservation and helping communities prepare for and respond to the effects of climate change. Staudt says these types of efforts already are under way in Ohio, such as the work to restore the Black River in Lorain.
"We're taking account of the fact that there are going to be heavier rainfall events and more flooding, and building that into our conservation plans to ensure that fish and other wildlife that depend on that river will be able to survive," Staudt says.
She says there are many practical options to help communities become more resilient in the face of a changing climate.
"Putting in bigger culverts, or taking advantage of our flood plains and building healthier flood plains to absorb flood waters," she says. "Other options include things like planting more trees, and using green roofs that can help keep our cities cooler during heat waves."

Kensington, CA — William "Bill" Leslie died on Monday, March 11, 2013, at his home in Kensington, Calif., after a four month fight with cancer. Born June 12, 1945, in Detroit, Mich., to Lloyd and Jane (Marsh) Carroll of Ontario, Canada, Bill moved to Dallas, Texas, when he was in high school. He was the first in his family to earn a college degree, graduating from Rice University in 1967. He moved to College Park, Md., for graduate work in Physics at the University of Maryland, and went to work for the National Bureau of Standards. In 1977, Bill joined the newly formed Passive Solar Group at the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory (LBL), and completed a doctoral degree with the Energy and Resources Group at the University of California, Berkeley. Bill retired from the Lab in 2005 following a distinguished career at LBL developing simulation programs for analyzing energy efficiency in building design. During retirement, Bill embraced a bi-coastal life, spending large parts of the year at his second home in Rockport. He will always be remembered for his scientific curiosity, his practical and technical capabilities, his ironic wit, and his kind and generous spirit. Bill is survived by his wife, Barbara Sternfeld, his son and daughter-in law, Michael and JoLynn, his sister Linda, and his grandchildren, Julia and Phillip. He is predeceased by a sister, Lois Kunkle.
ARRANGEMENTS: A memorial will be held on Friday, April 12, 2013, at 4 p.m., at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Berkeley, Calif. Donations in his memory may be sent to the Lawrence Hall of Science, the National Center for Science and Education or Kaiser Permanente Oakland Hospice.

Night fell a long, long time ago in Minneapolis, and the darkness refuses to end. Since losing the 2004 Western Conference Finals to the L.A. Lakers, the Minnesota Timberwolves have suffered from every affliction known to curse NBA teams: bad trades (Marko Jaric, anyone?), contract disputes (Latrell Sprewell), bad coaching decisions (firing Dwane Casey for Randy Wittman), the inevitable loss of a superstar (Kevin Garnett), bad draft picks (Corey Brewer, Randy Foye, Jonny Flynn) and a too-smart-for-his-own-good GM, David Kahn.
A lot of the aforementioned agents of destruction were levied by Kahn's predecessor, Kevin McHale; some say he set the franchise back to the point where Isiah Thomas starts looking favorable by comparison. (Keep in mind that in that awful Sam Cassell-Jaric swap, the pick the L.A. Clippers get from the Wolves will come next year, no matter where it falls. The Wolves are still paying for the Marko Jaric trade and he hasn't been in the league for two years.) Kahn was left a complete mess in 2009 so it's unsurprising that a mess remains.
But this summer has seen some huge victories for Kahn and another may be on the way as reports suggest Rick Adelman is considering taking the Wolves head coach job, if it's offered. But the summer of Kahn began back in May, when the GM managed to convince Spanish wunderkind Ricky Rubio to work against his own best financial interests and join the Wolves for the 2011-12 season. Had Rubio waited a year, he could have both negotiated a salary above the rookie scale and avoiding the messy prospect of a lockout. Instead, he agreed to come board the good ship Timberwolves ASAP, and was greeted like a 20-year-old peach-fuzzed hero.
See, Kahn always had a vision. It just seemed wholly unreasonable and poorly executed. Rubio's the keystone, the piece that can either bring the vision to life or make it all seem like an elaborate joke. Because such an untested player holds so much power over the success or failure of the Kahn dream, many will continue to be skeptical. Ricky has played in a top league, the Spanish ACB, but hasn't thrived there. This isn't the case where a dominant European player will try to find his way in the bigger, faster, more physically demanding NBA. This is what everyone believes to be an NBA player struggling to gain a footing in Europe, and opting to cut straight to the chase. Rubio's open-court talents might thrive in the NBA, but we'll have to take his word for it right now.
But so much of a point guard's success is in the other ingredients, the accouterments. The finishers. The spacers. The barker. Rubio has Kevin Love, a legit All-Star and maybe one of the 10 best young players in the league. Other than Blake Griffin, is there a big man younger than Dwight Howard that you'd take over Love? I'm madly in love with DeMarcus Cousins' potential, but I don't see the argument right now. Love is an offensive master already, after being a featured scorer for one season. His defense is a work in progress -- like most young bigs who don't block shots -- but he rebounds at such a rate that you can forgive missed assignments, because he'll clean them up.
Kahn also added Derrick Williams in the draft. There were murmurs that the Wolves were trying to trade out, to swap the No. 2 pick -- which was a choice between Williams, Jonas Valanciunas and Enes Kanter, essentially -- for a veteran, with the presence of Michael Beasley being part of the rationale. While such a trade could still come once the lockout lifts, let's count our blessings on behalf of the good people of Minnesota. Williams is legit, a nasty finisher who won't regularly take his man off the dribble but will certainly be able to thrive in the open court and on set pieces. Defense? We'll see. (This is becoming a theme.) But I have no question that, unless Klay Thompson and Jimmer Fredette become starters early on and ignoring a green-lights-everything Kyrie Irving in Cleveland, Williams will be the top scorer in the rookie class.
Beasley can perhaps work off of the bench or make for trade bait; Wes Johnson remains a mystery, but has shown signs of finishing ability. The center position is a disaster; not only did Darko Milicic remain Darko Milicic last season, but Nikola Pekovic was a disappointment as well. What I'm saying is that the rest of the roster is iffy; beyond Ricky, Love and Williams, it's a big goulash of question marks and shaken heads. The apparent big three is set, so this stuff doesn't totally matter right now. But there's one more piece Kahn needs soon to bring this vision together: a coach.
That why's, if the Wolves manage to convince Rick Adelman to sign on, we'll be able to forget everything we thought we knew about David Kahn. It isn't a guarantor of success, near or far -- But it's a helluva strong step. The coaches in play for the job outside of Adelman are underwhelming given the needs and state of the team.
Larry Brown is certainly a good coach ... but his talents are primarily found on the defensive side of the ball, and there's a strong chance that Brown's strict demands on his point guards would kill Ricky's career before it began. The genius of Ricky in his deus ex machina persona on the court. A Larry Brown point guard that plays "the right way" neuters that. Don Nelson goes the other way, allowing complete basketball freedom. Let me just warn that "complete basketball freedom" + "Michael Beasley" = bloodbath. Sam Mitchell, Terry Porter and Mike Woodson are all good coaches, don't get me wrong. But this team, right now, needs a great coach with a track record of making up-tempo, offensive-minded collections of talent look like symphonies.
Rick Adelman is a great coach with a nearly impeccable track record, and he fits the particular vision Kahn has for this roster: an open-court, smart and harmonic attack. Adelman runs an offense better than any of the other candidates, by far; look at Houston's roster from last season and tell me how he got the league's No. 4 offense out of that. Kevin Martin's a scoring genius, and Kyle Lowry's an efficient gem. Luis Scola is a beast. But ... the No. 4 offense, with no anchoring center to speak of, no All-Stars and no cohesive roster vision in a time of flux for the franchise. Nothing short of amazing.
Now give Adelman a young savant at point guard, a monster of power forward and a young finisher with strong work ethic like Williams, and you have something sustainable. Adelman's the perfect piece to bring the Kahn vision together, to make critics like me look like armchair-bound fools, to let the Timberwolves finally see the dawn of a new day. The summer of Kahn is nearly over, and this final gambit can complete the remodel or leave the renovation site a mess. Which will it be?

When it comes to saving lives, it seems that heroism runs in the family for a Richfield father and his two sons who ran into a burning building to save an elderly couple who hadn't yet noticed the flames.
The trio was spending some quality time with family a few weeks ago whenDave Schrick and his sons found the apple doesn't fall far from this family tree.
"I feel like we were supposed to be where we were at," Ruth Schrick told FOX 9 News.
Several times a week, Brad and Sam Schrick join their father for a visit at their grandmother's home in Richfield.
"Weird how we were out there that one day," Sam Schrick recalled. "We're usually inside."
Early last month, all four of them were in Ruth Schrick's back yard when they saw smoke coming from a house on the other side of the block and sprung into action. Brad and Sam Schrick hopped the fence and ran to the house to find an elderly neighbor watching TV with no idea that his home was on fire.
"While we were getting him out of there, he said, 'Oh no! I forgot something! My wife!,'" Brad Schrick told FOX 9 News. "We were like, 'Oh no, that's kind of important.'"
So, while Sam Schrick moved the man and his walker away from the burning home, Brad went back inside with his dad to rescue the neighbor's wife, who was asleep in a back bedroom. Since she is frail, they had to use a wheelchair to get her to safety while the smoke and flames closed in on them.
"It was sad, seeing the house get burned and them watching it," Sam Schrick said. "Not much you can say."
Except the Richfield City Council had plenty to say at a ceremony honoring both boys and their father for risking their lives to save someone else's.
"I've got two great boys," Dave Schrick told FOX 9 News. "I've never been so proud of my two boys as I was that day for what have done."
So as the saying goes, like father like sons -- so much so that the family that saves together, also works together as employees of the City of Richfield's Department of Public Works.
"Its another day helping out other citizens," said Brad Schrick. "I feel good about it. It was pretty cool."
None of the Schrick men say they are interested in becoming a full-on firefighter. They say running into one burning building was enough.

Dubbed 'the most violent prisoner in Britain', Charles Bronson was arrested for robbery in 1974 and has spent just four months and nine days out of jail since. The Real Bronson explores the life, psyche and crimes of the man who has become infamous for his behaviour in jail, fighting fellow convicts, guards and prison teachers - actions he claims he is not ashamed of. We talk to the actors who played Bronson in the reconstruction, whose personal relationships with "Charlie" gave us a fascinating insight into the man behind the headlines - a man they consider to be a friend.

The MTA continues to be opposed to reducing pension benefits for future public employees. However, because the House and Senate have both approved bills that make reductions, we are now focused on making sure the final version of the legislation is improved as much as possible. Immediate action by members is needed!
The pension bill is now being considered by a six-member House-Senate conference committee that is charged with producing a final version that will face up-or-down votes in both branches, probably next week.
Please go to http://massteacher.org/actnow and urge your representative and senator to ask the conference committee members to support these provisions:

Comments about
Pen Disassembly and Transfer Punch Set
I purchased this because it was less expensive than replacing the two pen kits that I assembled incorrectly when just learning to turn pens. Staff at woodcraft showed me how to use it to salvage the pen kits. I was able to replicate the disassembly at home. It has already paid for itself. My only complaint is that other retailers sell a similar set with rubber tipped vise grips with a head specifically deigned to hold pen barrels. I might buy it separately but the kit worked well without it.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
I've seen and used better.

Can't compair to the quality of transfer punches made 20 to 30 years ago.

DENISON, TX--- Whether you're in search of some homegrown and local produce or looking to score some hand-crafted items, the Downtown Denison Farmer's Market is ready to serve Texomans.
The market was founded in 2011 and their mission is to bring the very best in agricultural and locally
produced products to Texomans while providing viable outlets for Texoma farmers and producers.

"We just pick our produce fresh from the farm and bring it right here," said farmer Edward Ward.
The market relies on volunteers and donations to stay in business. It's located in historic Downtown Denison, at 400 W. Chestnut St., Denison, TX 75020 and is open Wednesdays from 3pm to 6pm and Saturdays from 9am to 12pm. This selling season will last through October.

The former VCU Women's Volleyball coach, who claimed he was fired for being gay, has found a new job in Seattle.
James Finley will be the new head volleyball coach of the Seattle University Redhawks starting February 1.
"I am very excited to receive the opportunity to move the Seattle U program forward as it looks to advance within Division I and the Western Athletic Conference," said Finley.
Finley's controversial dismissal from VCU caused a strong backlash from the students and faculty which prompted the university to conduct an Equal Employment Opportunity investigation. The investigation found the complaint unfounded.
Finley served as head coach at Virginia Commonwealth University for the past eight years, compiling a 151-116 (.566) record since 2005 and led the Rams to four conference championship matches.

Barber (The Performers, ...Spelling Bee) will step in for original revival cast member Brynn O'Malley, who is set to star in the upcoming Jason Robert Brown musical Honeymoon in Vegas, which premieres at the Paper Mill Playhouse Sept. 26. Barber will remain with the production through Nov. 3, at which point O'Malley is expected to return to Annie, according to a spokesperson for the production.
The Paper Mill Playhouse production of Honeymoon in Vegas has been billed as a pre-Broadway premiere. Dates of a Broadway run have not been announced.
The cast of Annie currently features Tony Award winner Faith Prince (Guys and Dolls, A Catered Affair) as Miss Hannigan, Australian actor Anthony Warlow as Oliver Warbucks, Clarke Thorell as Rooster Hannigan, J. Elaine Marcos as Lily St. Regis, with Taylor Richardson and Sadie Sink alternating as Annie.
Annie features a Tony Award-winning book by Thomas Meehan. The original production earned seven Tony Awards including Best Musical and Best Score for its 1977 debut starring Andrea McArdle in the title role. The production ran for 2,377 performances and has enjoyed numerous national tours and a 1997 Broadway revival, which went unrecorded.

By Ken Anderson
News Correspondent

The council members and library officials were reminded of the problems the city had with a previous building project during a special meeting last week.
The council adopted a position requiring the foundation and/or board of trustees for the library to utilize Chapter 62.15 in every facet of the project and particularly the bidding requirements and performance bonds for contracts.City attorney Steve Garbowicz said at some point the library project must come before the city Plan Commission and the council.

Club de Golf la Habana
The club lies between Vedado and the airport. Poor signposting makes it hard to find and most taxi drivers get lost looking: ask locals for directions to the golfito or Dilpo Golf Club.

The largest organization offering study visits for foreigners is UniversiTUR SA . UniversiTUR arranges regular study and working holidays at any of Cuba's universities and at many higher education or research institutes. Its most popular programs are intensive courses in Spanish language and Cuban culture at Universidad de La Habana.
There are many water activities available at Marina Hemingway in Barlovento, 20km west of central Havana. Fishing trips can be arranged at Marlin Náutica from CUC$150 for four anglers and four hours of bottom fishing, and CUC$280 for four anglers and four hours of deep-sea fishing Included are a captain, a sailor, an open bar and tackle. Marlin season is June to October.
All of Habana's main travel agencies offer a Hemingway tour, and the packages are much the same.
Offers Spanish courses 12 months a year, beginning on the first Monday of each month. Costs start at CUC$100 for 20 hours (one week), including textbooks, and cover all levels from beginners to advanced. You must first sit a placement test to determine your level. Aspiring candidates can sign up in person at the university or reserve beforehand via email or phone.
The stables in the northwestern corner of Parque Lenin are run by environmental agency, Flora y Fauna. At the time of writing they were offering all-day horseback riding lessons at their equestrian center for CUC$45. For more casual rides through the park, you'll have to use the boys who gather at the park entrance.
Between Cubanacán Náutica and the shopping center, this center offers scuba diving for CUC$30 per dive, plus CUC$5 for gear. It has one morning and one afternoon departure. A diving excursion to Varadero or Playa Girón can also be arranged. Reader reviews have been favorable.
Teaches highly recommended classes in son, salsa, rumba, mambo and more. It also teaches percussion. Classes start on the third Monday in January and the first Monday in July, and cost CUC$500 for a 15-day course. An admission test places students in classes of four different levels.
Legalized under Raúl Castro's reforms, the chicos who gallop around Park Lenin's northeast entrance on horseback offer their mounts for more relaxed excursions ($4/8 half/full hour). Check the state of your horse before mounting (and the offical license of your hirer).
Here you can see matches on Friday at 7pm (CUC$1) or drop by any day after 4pm to watch the training. Travelers interested in boxing can find a trainer here. Enquire within; they're very friendly.
Offers classes in the art of engraving. Individualized instruction lasts one month, during which the student creates an engraving with 15 copies; longer classes can be arranged. It costs around CUC$250.
Has all kinds of facilities, including a library, cinema, internet cafe and concert venue. Pick up its excellent monthly brochure and ask about the literature courses.

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - The Cats and Cards are ready to face each other for the annual Governor's Cup. Kickoff is at noon Saturday at Commonwealth Stadium, but some fans started their game preparations hours or even days early.
Fans were already tailgating in the parking lots surrounding Commonwealth Stadium by midday Friday.
"We have a party every Friday night we cook for each other," one told us, "and then in the mornings we get up and we just have a big breakfast and we get ready for the game.
At one Louisville business they've been ready for the game since Monday. AcuDent off Bardstown Road has been asking Cards and Cats fans to come by, donate to Dare To Care and then take a swing at the opposing team's colors on this beat up old car.
"We've actually been planning it for several months," said Stephanie Clouser, "(The owner) knew he wanted to do it before UofL and UK to get people excited about the game.'
Clouser was not hiding her bias, wearing a UofL Final Four t-shirt, but she says cards fans appeared to have a bit of an edge in the informal poll.
"The UK side has seen a few more beatings so the UofL fans have won this time I think," said Clouser. "We hope that UofL can continue that momentum going into this weekend.
A reminder for fans traveling from Louisville to Lexington: there's a construction project on U.S. 60, the Versailles exit. It's going to force traffic down to one lane in each direction.
The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet suggests the following alternate routes:
