Great ring and feels just right. I like it that it feels a bit heavy so I can actually feel the ring there. Also, the design is elegant and classy. The fact that it's scratch resistant is a bonus. Great value as well.
Anonymous, laguna hills, CA – July 2014
This ring is beautiful. It is surprisingly heavy and is of exceptional quality for the price.
Rebecca, Valparaiso, IN – May 2014
The ring is perfect in both size and appearance, and the value was exceptional with a price about 40% below what a similar ring was priced at the mall.

Dark brown with a reddish. Attractive in a tulip or stem. This beer has one of the best aromas ever. It is an intense combination of wood, chocolate, cherries, vanilla, booze...maybe a little raisin. Those aromas are also in the taste. They seem to layer upon each other...and well. In general I don't like sour or tart beer. This one was a pleasure. The tart cherry made me want to sneak another little sip. Then sweetness would come a long and confuse me. Each little taste was like a guilty pleasure. There was a richness that imo begged for a nice cheese. This beer is not a style I appreciate and it still managed to impress me. This is one of those beers you really have to try for yourself.

2009 vintage.
Murky brown with a small tanned head that leaves some lacings.
The smell is complex and balanced with notes of brett, sour cherries, grass, mud and malts. A hint of vanilla in the nose as well.
The flavor is tart with pleasant cherry notes, funky brett, grass and some liqueur-like fruity notes. Lightly sweet malts and notes of wood in the foundation. The finish is dry and lightly bitter with notes of wood, cherries and just a hint of alcohol.
Medium body and well balanced carbonation.
A really good beer. Complex, interesting and tasty - what more can you ask for?

2009 vintage. 375ml corked bottle. Dark cola brown pour with red highlights and not much head...a ring of khaki bubbles. Aromas of deep malts swimming with a mix of raisin and tart cherry. Woody notes and vinegar funk. Vanilla undertone...the tart cherry is vibrant.
First sip is rich sweet dark malts enveloped in a mix of tart cherries and raisins. Big sourness along with woody oak tannins and a nice funk throughout. Interplay between sweet and sour all the way down. Not as acidic as the '08. Touch of vanilla and brown sugar on the finish. Damn good.
Mouthfeel is very mellow carbonation but it works well...body is good and well placed. Each sip leads to the next and the alcohol provides some warming. I'm enjoying this vintage.
2008 vintage. 375ml corked bottle. Pours into my tulip glass a deep dark, hazy cola brown color with a small light tan head on top that fades to a ring. Aromas start out with rich, intoxicating malts. Somewhat roasted with caramel, vanilla and raisins. Cherries are big in the nose alongside a tart funkiness with mild vinegar. Brown sugar and oak nuances with light bourbon.
First sip brings roasted, dark malts upfront with notes of caramel and vanilla. Raisins make quite an appearance as well. The middle brings a melding of sour cherries, oak tannins and a tart, somewhat funky brett aspect. Flows down with a whisper of bourbon and finishes quite dry with lingering cherry tones and a tart afterthought. Alcohol is nowhere to be found. A deeply multi-layered taste experience.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a smooth airy quality about it. Good carbonation all the way through. This is somewhat more acidic, with more woody tannins than the original black label bottles I've drank. Overall though, it's still a very tasty treat and I'm glad to have had the chance to sample this year's version. Cheers to Lost Abbey and the Sinner's Club.

On tap at old towne pizza elk grove, ca
Poures into delerium tulip. Looks dark and slightly murky with tones of brown black and carmel. Not to sticky on the glass, light, and definately sour..taste is cherry and chocolate rounded out by a good malt presence, very light mouthfeel for a quad based beer..this beer puckers the toungue with fruity flavors such as cherry and citrus, with the hops displyed on the finish...airee and dry. Carbonation is medium, which I like to go with this dry beer..This is a great 11% barrel aged beer. Some sours just dont pack the abv, and I can't drink more than 22oz of "sour-beer", so this one boads well for me. This with pizza, sherp aged hard yellow cheese, salty food.

The beer pours dark red/brown/black, depending on how it is held to the light. The only signs of head is the slight ring around the edge. Aromas of black cherry (comes of Jolly Rancher-ish), soy sauce, slight musty basement, and a touch of alcohol. The flavor is nice and fruity. Loads of tart cherry and plums. Warm alcoholic finish. Silk and oil over the palate. Moderate carbonation. This is less like a beer and more of a wine or high end liquor. Thanks a million Mike.

Small bottle, pours very dark amber, dangerous at 12%, long lasting dark tan head, rich nose of dark malts, wood, dark fruits and cherries. Rich, complex and viscous on the tongue. Cherries, wood, bourbon, more dark fruit, moderate sour permeating the mixture and adding more interest and somehow more complexity. World class creation. Night capper, dessert beer supreme. Please send this to NYC/CT/NJ/Mass sometime soon

2008 Version, 375mL bottle:
Color is very dark red with a beige colored head that recedes to a ring around the glass. Smell of acetic acid, cherries, caramel, oak, dark fruits, and brown sugar. Taste is sour with cherry pits, maple, bourbon, dark fruit, and caramel sweetness. Medium carbonation with medium body. Good stuff, I look forward to trying it with a bit more age on it.

Pours cloudy brown with a nearly tan head. Cherrybomb aroma, with nice oak and bourbon. Taste is heavily cherries, but nice brown sugar, nuts, sour yeast, and alcohol round it out so it is not overwhelming. Good bourbon and cognac flavors come through as it warms. I know it says this is a Strong Ale, but it drinks like a liquer.

Bottle (2009)
(Aged for 2 years)
Thanks for sharing, Nathan!
A murky dark brown, bordering on black, with a very thin light brown head. Leaves spots of lacing down the glass.
An incredibly rich and complex aroma: tart sourness, rich and sweet cherries, earth and wood, some vanilla, and other dark fruits like raisins, prunes, and figs complement the rest of the beer incredibly well.
Sweet cherries are the first thing on the palette, along with a blisteringly tart sourness, Brett funk, along with some mild roast and char, and a warming, complementary wood and vanilla backbone. Exceptional.
Medium bodied with ample carbonation.
One of my favorite beers ever. This was a very good year. I would love to try another 2009 at some point.

A: Looks like a flat cola. No carbonation.
S: Sour cherries & apples. Some oak and vanilla notes.
T: Bursting with sour cherry flavor. Nice sour/tart flavor. Leaning on the too sweet side. I wish there was carbonation to balance this out.
F: Light bodied. No carbonation which is a disappointment to me. It tastes flat.
O: Very nice flavor and I'm enjoying the tart cherry notes. Although this just doesn't do it for me without carbonation. It tastes flat. I appreciate it as a quality craft beer, but it's not my thing.

Pours a slow deep red. Very little carbonation to it. Aroma of cherry, oak, bitter/sourness.
Taste, nice and tangy, balanced sweetness and sour, wood flavor, red tannins, tinge of vanilla. Alcohol extremely well hidden. Really enjoyed what it brought to the table. The sour aspect made sense that this wasn't all that carbonated, so quit complaining about it, I think its that way with good reason (complimentary).
Drinkability is a little low because the stuff is just so dang expensive ($40 at the goat) and isn't too easy to find around my parts. This was the 09 version.

I picked up a few bottles from the Lost Abbey 1st anniversery party.
This beer pours a dark brown color with a reddish tint to it. It has no head, and I can not detect any signs of carbonation.
This beer smells or sour cherries. It also has a very nice spicy aroma. I smell some citrusy hops, and some spices. Coriander mostly. Cherries, however, are the dominate aroma.
This beer tastes great. It tastes like sour cherries. It is sour, with a nice Belgian spicy flavor. It has some citrusy flavor as well. The alcohol in very well hidden in this beers flavor. As with the aroma, the sour cherries are the dominate flavor.
This beer leaves a sour aftertaste. It is not carbonated at all. I think it would be a little better if it had some carbonation. I am not sure if it was supposed to be carbonated. It was still pretty good though.
I doubt this beer would be the best session beer. It is high in alcohol, and the sour flavor might become a little overbearing after a time. Also, it is hard to come by an it was a little pricy at $15 for a 350ML.
Overall: I have had this beer before, and I will have it again. I love it. What more do I need to say?

City participates in Sales Tax Holiday
From Aug. 6-8, shoppers can take advantage of a three-day sales tax holiday from the City of Kansas City, Mo., State of Missouri, Cass County, Clay County, Jackson County and Platte County when they purchase certain items of clothing, shoes, school supplies and computers in Kansas City, Missouri stores.
"With families strapped for cash during this difficult economic time, this is a great opportunity for parents to purchase those items so essential for their children to succeed in school," said Mayor Mark Funkhouser. "Because the sales tax holiday is limited to the Missouri side of the state line, this also offers shoppers an excellent opportunity to visit stores in Kansas City, Missouri."
For these three days only, the sales tax rate will be zero in Kansas City, Mo., for the specified items. To help reduce costs for families getting ready for the new school year, the following retail purchases will be exempt from respective sales taxes during the 2010 Back to School Sales Tax Holiday:
- Articles of clothing, shoes and cloth or other materials used to make school uniforms or other school clothing with taxable value of $100 or less
- School supplies not to exceed $50 per purchase. School supplies include any item normally used by students in a standard classroom for educational purposes, including but not limited to, textbooks, notebooks, paper, writing instruments, crayons, art supplies, rulers, book bags, backpacks, handheld calculators, chalk, maps and globes.
- Laptop, desktop or tower computer systems (or their component parts) designed for use as personal computers with taxable value of $3,500 or less
- Computer software items with taxable value of $350 or less.
- Computer peripheral devices not to exceed $3,500.
There are some items that may be considered by some to be clothing, personal computers or school supplies that will not be exempt from the previously mentioned sales taxes during the three-day sales tax holiday. These items include watches, watchbands, jewelry, handbags, handkerchiefs, umbrellas, scarves, ties, headbands, belt buckles, radios, CD players, headphones, sporting equipment, portable or desktop phones, copiers or other office equipment. Additional items exempt from the tax holiday are furniture and fixtures for homes, apartments, dorms or other residences.

Home Profile Woman of rare mettle joins UCU
By Justin Emedot and Sam Wakhakha,
:: 15-02-2012
Monica Chibita is one of the few PhD holders in the field of Mass Communication in Uganda. Chibita first taught when she was in Primary Seven during Idi Amin's nationwide literacy campaign.
In her Senior Six vacation, she taught in her school, Mount St. Mary's Namagunga. After completing her degree, she was posted to King's College Budo from where she went to the literature department at Makerere as a graduate fellow.
BackgroundShe was born in Nsambya Hospital in 1963. She is the secondborn in a family of 14. Her parents were civil servants. Her father worked in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
For her primary education, she went to eight primary schools with the longest period at any of them being two years. She attended primary schools such as Shimoni Demonstration School, Buckley High School in Iganga, Nsambya Police Children's School and St. Maria Gorreti Primary School in Kisubi. She admits that she writes badly because of this frequent change in primary schools.
"It is because of this that I have a bad handwriting. I was not able to settle in one school to master handwriting of one teacher. Thank God we can type these days," she says.
Besides, her father just transferred her whenever he wanted. It was not that he was being transferred from one place to another.
She completed her primary in St. Augustine's Primary School Butiti in present-day Kyenjojo district and joined Namasagali College for O-level. From Namasagali, she proceeded to Mt. St. Mary's Namagunga where she sat for A-level.
At Namagunga, she was the mess prefect. During her Senior Six vacation, she was, together with four colleagues, told to stay behind and teach. She taught until the time came for her to join university. She joined Makerere University and did education. Chibita describes her first year at university as a misguided one.
"It was a totally misguided year because I had grown up thinking that I was capable of being moral without anybody's guidance. I had been to good schools, learnt values at home and so I thought I was capable of managing my life. Later, I realised that that alone was not enough," she says.
Although she says she was not a totally wild person, Chibita committed herself to the Lord in her second year. A gentleman called Benon Asiimwe spoke to her about getting saved and after a lot of soul-searching; she decided to give her life to Jesus Christ. During her teaching practice, she went back to Namagunga and she thought this was a place where she was going to teach because, afterall, she had developed a strong relationship with it before. She proceeded to carry her property to go and teach at this school.
After a few days she was called in the office by the headmistress who told her that the school was uncomfortable with her being a 'mulokole' (saved). The headmistress told her to pack her things.
He was sent to the Ministry of Education where they decided to post her to King's College Budo. She taught here until 1988 when she decided to join the youth ministry of Kampala Baptist Church.
She worked in this ministry for two years. In 1990, she went to Makerere University looking for an opportunity to do a master's degree. She was told that there was an opportunity in the mass communication department which had just been started in 1988.
They asked her if she was interested in doing an MA. She was interviewed and she got it. She left for the University of Iowa in the US in 1990. Before going, that year she introduced her fiancé, Mike Chibita, currently resident judge in Fort Portal, to her parents. Her fiance, Mike joined her in US for a master's in law. She is keen to point out that when her fiance joined her in the US, he had to stay at the pastor's place until they later got married.
At Iowa, Chibita says that it was difficult for her to fit in journalism because she had no practical background in the field. Despite this, she completed her master's degree in December 1992. From here, she proceeded to Northwestern University in Minnesota. Here, she wanted to practice mass communication and she got a job as a DJ at a radio station for eight months. She also taught development communication at this university at the same time.
In September 1993, Chibita returned and started temporarily lecturing in the mass communication at Makerere. In March of the following year, she was made a permanent staff.
In 2003, she enrolled for a PhD in University of South Africa. She did it mainly by correspondence and completed it in 2006. Over the past 18 years at Makerere, she gradually rose to head of department and associate professor before taking up the mass communication headship at UCU this January.
Vision for the department
Chibita says she has not particularly come with a pre-packaged vision as she is not a magician. Her first area of focus will be staff recruitment. She wants to see the number of permanent staff increased from the current number of three.
"We are prioritising recruitment and also strengthening staff that are here. We are also looking at establishing partnerships, procuring books and equipment, expanding the space in which we operate and reviewing of the curriculum to see if it is still relevant. These are some of the areas we are looking at," she says.

KOMPLEX is an add-on module to AZTEC that allows users to solve complex-valued linear systems.
KOMPLEX solves a complex-valued linear system Ax = b by solving an equivalent real-valued system of twice the dimension. Specifically, writing in terms of real and imaginary parts, we have
or by separating into real and imaginary equations we have
which is a real-valued system of twice the size. If we find xr and xi, we can form the solution to the original system as x = xr +i*xi.
KOMPLEX accept user linear systems in three forms with either global or local index values.
1) The first form is true complex. The user passes in an MSR or VBR format matrix where the values are stored like Fortran complex numbers. Thus, the values array is of type double that is twice as long as the number of complex values. Each complex entry is stored with real part followed by imaginary part (as in Fortran).
2) The second form stores real and imaginary parts separately, but the pattern for each is identical. Thus only the values of the imaginary part are passed to the creation routines.
3) The third form accepts two real-valued matrices with no assumption about the structure of the matrices. Each matrix is multiplied by a user-supplied complex constant. This is the most general form.
Each of the above forms supports a global or local index set. By this we mean that the index values (stored in bindx) refer to the global problem indices, or the local indices (for example after calling AZ_transform).
Create Komplex matrix from Complex matrix.
Transforms a complex-valued matrix where double precision array hold the complex values of Amat_complex in Fortran complex format.
Create Komplex Matrix from General Matrix.
Transforms a complex-valued Matrix
(c0r+i*c0i)*A0 +(c1r+i*c1i)*A1)
to a Komplex matrix.
Create Komplex Matrix from Real and Imaginary Parts.
Transforms a complex-valued matrix
(Ar +i*Ai)
where double precision arrays hold the real and imaginary parts separately. The pattern of the imaginary part matches the real part. Thus no structure for the imaginary part is passed in.

There are no kangaroos in Austria.
We're talking about Australia, the world's smallest continent. That being cleared up, let's dive right in!
Australia is a sovereign state under the Commonwealth of Nations, which is in turn overseen by Queen Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God, Queen of Australia and Her other Realms and Territories, Head of the Commonwealth.
The continent was first sighted and charted by the Dutch in 1606. Captain James Cook of Britain came along in the next century to claim it for Britain and name it "New South Wales." Shortly thereafter it was declared to be a penal colony full of nothing but criminals and convicts, giving it the crap reputation you may have heard at your last cocktail party.
This rumor ignores 40,000 years of pre-European human history, especially the Aboriginal concept of Dreamtime, an interesting explanation of physical and spiritual reality.The two biggest cities in Australia are Sydney and Melbourne. Sydney is more for business, Melbourne for arts. But that's painting in very broad strokes. Take a whirl around the panoramas to see for yourself!

April 8, 2010
Office Of College Services Board Room
Richard Allison
Charles Martoni
Dwight Bishop
Maryann Anderson, College Council Chair, called the meeting to order at 2:34 PM.
Mary Ellen Driver moved to approve the minutes of the March 25, 2010 meeting of College Council. Rita Gallegos seconded the motion. The minutes were approved as amended. Barbara Thompson thanked Toni Carney and Rita Gallegos for filling in for her as College Council secretary at the last meeting.
Last Spring a proposal regarding the scheduling of distance learning courses was brought to College Council. As a result, Dr. Johnson formed a task force, headed by Donna Imhoff, to examine the situation. In addition to Dr. Imhoff, members of the task force include: Dwight Bishop, Rod Farkas, Tony Lucas, Tom Turich, and Sulakshana Plumley.
In her presentation, Dr. Imhoff said that problems regarding scheduling distance learning courses have existed for at least five or six years. Courses were previously scheduled on a rotational basis; however, the rotation was not being properly maintained. Distance learning seniority dates were established, but in some cases the seniority dates were not traditional. Instead, the dates faculty members started teaching distance learning courses were used.
The task group was charged with answering this question, "Does the current system of listing distance learning courses in the printed schedule of classes give any single campus an advantage over another campus with regard to distance learning enrollment and course cancellation rate?"
The task force tried to use a data-driven approach recognizing that there would not be a perfect solution. They looked at data from Fall 2005 through Fall 2009. There were three issues the task force considered:
1. Process
2. Planning and how it is presented online and in print
3. AFT Contract language.
As a result of their analysis, the task group came up with the following:
Primary Recommendation (first choice)
1. Scheduling should be listed and rotated by campus each semester in the printed schedule.
2. Distance learning courses would be listed according to course/campus offerings in the printed semester schedule by campus block with all Internet classes appearing at the bottom of each course listing, by a sorting rotation by course and campus.
3. If there is space in the printed schedule, it is recommended that the courses also appear in a separate section titled "Distance Learning."
CIT 100 Alleg 1st section
CIT 100 Boyce 1st section
CIT 100 Boyce 1st section
CIT 100 North 1st section
CIT 100 North 1st section
CIT 100 South 1st section
CIT 100 South 1st section
CIT 100 Alleg 1st section
CIT 100 Alleg 2nd section
CIT 100 Boyce 2nd section
CIT 100 Boyce 2nd section
CIT 100 North 2nd section
The secondary recommendation (second choice):
1. Scheduling should be listed and rotated by campus each semester in the printed schedule.
2. Non-distance learning courses would be listed according to course/campus offerings in the printed semester schedule by campus block. All Internet courses/sections would appear at the bottom of each campus listing by numerical sorting rotation.
3. If there is space in the printed schedule, it is recommended that the courses also appear in a separate section titled "Distance Learning."
CIT 100 Alleg 1st section
CIT 100 Boyce 1st section
CIT 100 Alleg 2nd section
CIT 100 Boyce 2nd section
CIT 100 Alleg 3rd section
CIT 100 North 1st section
CIT 100 Boyce 1st section
CIT 100 North 2nd section
CIT 100 Boyce 2nd section
CIT 100 North 3rd section
CIT 100 North 1st section
CIT 100 South 1st section
The task group looked for a system that was equitable and practical for all, and that did not require odd programming or maintenance.
Additional recommendations include:
Scheduling should remain in each academic department.
Scheduling should be listed and rotated by campus each semester.
Internet courses should be listed in a block below courses in the Magazine.
The task group did not include Summer terms in this consideration because Summer courses are all overages, and scheduling does not fall into the normal scheduling rotation.
Dr. Imhoff stressed that a key component is the need for inter-campus planning concerning how many sections there will be.
Barbara Thompson stressed the need for the complete report and recommendations to be sent out to the College community. Because of AFT contract negotiations and the need to schedule and publish the schedule ahead of time, if this proposal were accepted during negotiations it would be 2012 before anything would be implemented. Maryann Anderson remarked that Dr. Johnson favors the Primary Recommendation.
Dr. Imhoff thanked all of the members of the task force for all of their hard work.
Carl Francolino reported that the Subcommittee did not meet. The next meeting will be April 15, and it will be a year end wrap-up meeting.
Proposal: Medical Laboratory Assistant Program (#571) Course Revisions
This proposal involved changing the course descriptions and learning outcomes for MLA 101- Laboratory Specimen Processing and MLA 102 - Medical Laboratory Assistant Externship. All revisions requested by the Curriculum Subcommittee were included.
Carl Francolino moved to accept the proposal. Toni Carney seconded the motion, and the motion passed unanimously.
Proposal: Medical Laboratory Technician Program (#525) and Course Revisions
Maura Stevenson remarked that this proposal was more extensive than the last proposal, but still very straight forward. Jane Coughanour, the initiator, explained that the course requirements and program descriptions were revised based upon recommendations by the program accrediting agency, NAACLS. CHM 120 was eliminated as a requirement. Some program applicable bio-organic chemistry content was added to MLT 161, and the credits for that course were increased from three to four credits. Several courses were moved in order to adjust students' credit load by semester.
Mary Ellen Driver moved to accept the proposal. Joanne Jeffcoat seconded the motion and the motion passed unanimously.
Proposal: Pharmacy Technician Degree Program (#518.1) and Pharmacy Technician Certificate Program (#418.1) and Course Revisions
This proposal involved revising the course descriptions and learning outcomes for 10 PHT courses. Additionally, PHT 200 was deleted from the program because it has not been offered in several years.
Carl Francolino moved to accept the proposal. Rita Gallegos seconded the motion and the motion passed unanimously.
Maura Stevenson mentioned that today is the deadline for submitting curriculum proposals for the 2009/2010 academic year. Seventeen new proposals have been submitted. The Curriculum Subcommittee will meet on April 15, and April 29.
Joanne Jeffcoat reported that the Subcommittee did not meet. There are four or five program reviews to consider at their next meeting.
Proposal: CCAC Prior Learning Assessment Process (Tabled 3/25/10)
This proposal was tabled at the last meeting of College Council. Toni Carney moved to un-table the proposal. Maura Stevenson seconded the motion, and the motion passed unanimously.
Maryann Anderson thanked Judy Savolskis and Steve Wells for collaborating so well on this proposal and thanked Toni Carney, as well, for summarizing the issues in the minutes of the last College Council meeting.
In deliberations regarding this proposal since the last meeting of Council, Don Jukes suggested that the non-credit courses covered in the proposal could be treated in the same manner as experimental courses. As a result, the following paragraph was added to the proposal, "Articulation agreements that are developed between CCAC non credit and the CCAC academic division as a result of this evaluation procedure for non credit competency based skill course(s) have to be taken through the governance process for review. This review has to happen before or during the second offering of the non credit course(s) listed in the individual articulation agreement. As part of the review, in addition to the articulation agreement, the non credit division must also supply appropriate supporting documentation of parallel learning outcomes."
Furthermore, Judy Savolskis removed the word "preferable" from section B.1. as it refers to faculty. A list of programs in which this procedure also would be used was provided.
Donna Imhoff moved to accept the proposal. Rita Gallegos seconded the motion and the motion passed unanimously.
There was no unfinished business
Subcommittee Minutes
Maryann Anderson reminded the Subcommittee secretaries of their obligation to distribute minutes to the College community and post the Subcommittee minutes on the College Council website in a timely manner. Rita Gallegos remarked that it has been very difficult to attend training at times offered because of teaching schedules. Members agreed that the training should be specifically on posting minutes onto the College Council website. Maryann Anderson will speak to Nancilee Burzachechi about making arrangements for more specific training.
Math Enrichment Course, YAG010
Barbara Thompson questioned a new non credit course, YAG010 listed in the Credit Magazine above Math 080. The course came about after College Council approved a proposal last Spring to allow those who take the math placement test and score below 24, to be provided with some form of math remediation. As a result Allysen Todd, the Discipline Dean, created a non credit, pass/fail math course. Barbara Thompson questioned why it did not come from the math faculty, why the faculty had little input, and why, even though it is a non credit course, it did not go through governance. Allysen Todd explained that she met with Math faculty in August and distributed a handout concerning the Downtown Center's pilot project. In February, she sent emails to all math faculty asking for advice. Dr. Todd said that she referred back to the pilot project run by the Downtown Center, listed 13 bulleted topics, explained the intent, suggested a title, and asked for help. She received eight responses, which she incorporated. The first course will be offered in the fall. Dr. Todd was asked to return to Council to provide data regarding the effectiveness of the non-credit courses.
College Council Elections
Maryann Anderson reported that the following College Council positions are open for the next academic year:
Allegheny Occupational Technologies
Boyce Arts and Sciences
North Occupational Technologies
South Arts and Sciences
South Occupational Technologies (one year term)
College-wide Counselor
Interested parties should contact Maryann Anderson, John Dziak, or the AFT Office by April 30, 2010.
President's Council
Maryann Anderson reported that President's Council did not meet in March.
Remaining Meetings
College Council will meet April 22, and May 6. The May 6 meeting will commence at 1:00 pm, with lunch served at 12:30 pm.
There being no further business, the meeting ended at 4:50 pm.
Respectfully submitted,
Barbara Thompson
College Council Secretary

The Cardinals need a healthy arm and plan to sign QB Brodie Cryole on Tuesday, according to PFW correspondent and Arizona Republic writer Kent Somers.
Backup QB John Skelton suffered a right ankle sprain in Friday's preseason game against the Packers. Head coach Ken Whisenhunt said it looks like a high ankle sprain.
Max Hall has a left shoulder injury, leaving the Cards with Kevin Kolb and Rich Bartel as the only quarterbacks heading into their third preseason game.
Croyle spent five seasons as a backup in Kansas City. He started six games in '07, throwing for 1,227 yards, six TDs and six INTs. He played in two games last season.

Dating with Allergies, a Tricky Business
What would the teen do if at a party and the object of her dreams is pressuring her to make out? Or if someone tries to give the teen a drink? Invariably, he tells them of one no-nonsense female patient who figured out that if she spoke to her dates about her allergies from the get-go, the ones who really cared about her, or at least really wanted to kiss, would make sure not to jeopardize her health.
"Because if someone cares about you, they wouldn't want to make you sick," Sicherer says. "Advance planning is one great way to relieve the peer pressure. And don't drink alcohol. It only makes you let your guard down."
Sage, whose parents are always telling her never to drop her guard, had that life lesson reinforced last August during an end of session celebration at a summer camp in the Okanagan Valley. Sage and her date planned to dance the night away, but their plans were foiled at the start. As hors d'oeuvres were served outside the dining hall, her date, who is allergic to legumes, bit into a samosa that contained peas.
"He tapped me on my shoulder, said, 'I have to go get my EpiPen' and ran back to his cabin. I guess he thought the samosa was a spinach and cheese pie," she recalls. "I told the staff, and the camp director, the doctor and two nurses all sprinted after him." She spent their romantic dinner sitting next to an empty chair.
"It was kind of sad," she says. "There was also a poster with a big heart that couples were having their photo taken in front of. That kind of sucked, too."
The experience made Sage more determined than ever. "I don't eat anything when I don't know exactly what's in it, and I never go anywhere without my EpiPen."
It's sage advice (so to speak), as is that from Lisa Ferlaino, a 21-year-old communications student from Montreal's West Island. Last summer, she registered with eHarmony, the online dating website, because she was ready for a serious relationship with someone who would accept that she wanted a family and a career. In her profile, she didn't mention her allergies to peanuts, tree nuts, dairy and legumes. It wasn't because she was hiding anything; there simply wasn't a place for it.
Soon, Lisa was corresponding with a 21-year-old apprentice electrician. They had similar interests and goals and when she e-mailed him about her allergies, his response was that her health came first. "And then I found out that his mom is a nurse," says Ferlaino, "and I was like, 'this is good.'"
On their first date, at a coffee shop near her home, they spoke of family, their mutual love of tennis and Ferlaino's health challenges. And for three weeks, they texted each other continuously. But when he returned from a family holiday in the Mari-times, they weren't clicking like they had been. "There was no spark," she says. "I deserve spark."
So do you. Don't settle. Allergies or not, you will kiss a lot of frogs before you find your prince or princess, and there are happy endings. Medoff and Webber, for instance, have been together for going on two years, while Shainblum met Mark Shainblum, whom she would marry, when she was least expecting it.

My apple and pear trees seem to be growing very slowly too. My peach trees passed them in size a few times already. I have 10ft + peach trees alreay while my pear and apple trees maybe hit 6ft. I know the deer are trimming my apple trees but they should get even stronger as the rootsare untouched.
Is there something i can feed my fruit trees to make them grow faster into healthy fruit bearing trees? What else can i do??? Bill

Capt. Grant Cesarek with the Rural/Metro Fire Department said crews from station 79 in Sahuarita responded to the scene of a multiple vehicle collision involving a school bus around 2:45 p.m.
Rural/Metro officials said 29 kids, varied in ages between Kindergarten and 12th grade, were on the bus at the time of the incident at La Canada and El Toro Road. Sahuarita police say the bus driver had stopped on the road to let kids off the bus. A truck stopped behind the bus, but a convertible slammed into the truck, which then crashed into the school bus.
No significant injuries were reported. Four kids on the bus complained of headaches and neck pain, though they did not need to be taken to the hospital.
The driver of the convertible was taken to the hospital with minor injuries, including a possible broken bone.
School district officials were on scene to assist with communications to the parents.

By Ken de la Bastide Kokomo Tribune
Kokomo Tribune
---- — During the past three years the cash balance for the city of Kokomo has increased by $7.8 million, or 63 percent.
City Controller Milton Beach said Tuesday during the opening round of the Kokomo Common Council's budget review process that the city has been steadily increasing its cash balances.
The combined cash balance from several areas, including the general fund, has climbed from $12.3 million in 2010 to $20.1 million as of the end of August.
The cash balance for the Economic Development Income Tax fund has increased from $2.5 million to $2.9 million since 2010.
When Mayor Greg Goodnight took office in 2008, the city was facing a $4 million deficit.
Randy Morris, the former director of operations for Kokomo and now superintendent of the Parks & Recreation Department, said the proposed 2014 budget is balanced with the anticipated revenues.
"The budget may need some tweaking, but there is no need for major cuts," he said.
Morris said the city is budgeting an increase of $1,000 for the health care costs of each employee, bringing the 2014 cost per person to $16,500, an increase of 6.5 percent.
The city's overall budget is increasing by 1.16 percent, he said.
The proposed total budget for all city departments for 2014 is $59.5 million as compared to $58.8 million for this year. The general fund budget is increasing by 1.75 percent from $39.7 million to a proposed budget of $40.4 million.
The Indiana Department of Local Government Finance is allowing a 2.6 percent increase in local government spending for 2014.
Morris said the city is losing $6 million in revenues as a result of the property tax caps implemented by the Indiana General Assembly several years ago.
Included in the budget is $900,000 for resurfacing projects in the city through the Local Road and Street and Motor Vehicle Highway Funds and $175,000 for the city's portion of the design and right-of-way acquisition for a pedestrian bridge over U.S. 31 as part of the Nickel Plate Trail extension.
The council will continue to review city departmental budgets beginning at 6 p.m. today at the administration building of Kokomo Schools Corporation.

Invented by Leo Gerstenzang in 1923 after watching his wife twist cotton swabs around a toothpick to clean their lil one's ears, the Q-Tip is one of the top items on a mama-to-be's supply list. Whether hidden in a canister on the changing table or displayed front and center in one of the company's cute new baby packs, Q-Tips are always within a mom's arm's reach. Here are nine different uses for the baby care essential. Cleaning CD Players What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Dipped in a little bit of rubbing alcohol, a cotton swab can be used to clean the dust out of the CD player that helps put your lil one to sleep each night. 1 / 9 Paintbrushes What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Lil hands can make a mess out of a paintbrush-sized dollop of paint.

We were able to keep the same accommodation for the second week which meant that we did not have to pack and relocate somewhere else on the ship.
The ship was busy but we always managed to find somewhere to sit in the sun if we wanted.
The excellent service we received on the first week of our cruise continued in the second, with every member of staff taking an interest in where you had been that day or what your plans were for dinner etc. Unfortunately the entertainment was repeated each week. A person who we enjoyed listening to in various venues around the ship was Tino. He was an excellent singer and his music seemed to appeal to a large audience, his repetoire was also quite funny.
We did not participate in bingo as it was very expensive and slow. We did participate in the whisky and martini tastings and found them to be fun and good value.
Overall we had a great holiday. We particularly like NCL for the freedom to dine when we want and with whom we want. We like their STYLE!

GARRETT GOMEZ, CAMBINA, WINNER: "She was traveling good. I expected things to start falling apart up front a little sooner than they did. I started to inch her out and she wanted to cut the corner a little harder on me, so I dropped back in and followed Victor (Espinoza) for a second. I split him and another horse and dove to the fence. She's not a very big horse and she's not much to look at. She reminds me of Megahertz. She's got a lot more to prove to catch Megahertz but she's on the right start. She has done everything I asked her to do. She's so small, I thought today's distance would hamper her a little bit, but it didn't. She wants to settle in and kick home. The farther he (Jeff Bonde) sends her, the better she travels."
VICTOR ESPINOZA, WHISPER LOUISE, SECOND: "It was nice; I had a good trip. She got a little bit tired at the last 20 yards. It was a good race for her."
JEFF BONDE, CAMBINA, WINNER: "I'm not surprised that she's won at different distances. She came to run today. It's all good. Garrett Gomez gave her a Hall of Fame ride. He just fits her like a glove and she totally responds to him. We're just enjoying the ride. She's a typical European filly. She wants to sit and wait and then make a run. She had won around two turns in Europe and that's softer going. Usually they'll carry an eighth of a mile further, and watching her run today I think she could probably run a mile and a quarter pretty easily. There are lots of nice stakes races coming up this summer, and I'm sure she'll show up at Hollywood Park in some of those bigger ones."
JAMES CASSIDY, WHISPER LOUISE, SECOND: "She hadn't run since October, and we really didn't have another spot for her until this. We would have liked to have had a race into her before this, but there really wasn't anything. A mile and an eighth for the first time is long and troublesome, but she ran really well, and I think she'll show herself even better next time."
NOTES: The winning owners are Anthony Bilich of San Ramon, Jason Cline of Danville and George Schmitt of Pleasanton. Today's on-track attendance is 31,523.

In Awareness Through Movement (ATM®), the instructor guides students through a series of movement sequences organized around a particular function. Lessons consist of simple, small movements that gradually evolve into greater range and complexity.
ATM is the active version of The Feldenkrais Method, an expansive approach to human movement, learning, and change based on physics, neuroscience, and physiology, and the conditions under which the nervous system learns best. The techniques and theory were developed by Moshe Feldenkrais, D.Sc., a physicist and the first Western black belt in judo.
Instructor Angela Alston, GCFP, MFA, began taking ATM in 1996. She trained at the Feldenkrais Institute of NY with David Zemach-Bersin, and at the Feldenkrais Center of Houston with Paul Rubin, two of Dr. Feldenkrais' original US students. Angela offers a regular series at MoveStudio and Our Space and workshops in Dallas and beyond. She also offers private lessons (Functional Integration). Angela has studied yoga and dance, and is an award-winning maker of dance films.
"The aim is a body that is organized to move with minimum effort and maximum efficiency, not through muscular strength but increased consciousness of how it works."—Moshe Feldenkrais

The Jeff Tedford hot seat is on full blast. The rumors are circulating that the California Golden Bears head coaching tenure at Cal will reach an end if the Bears do not finish at .500 or above.

Full report on delay to Beaminster Tunnel repairs
People in Beaminster say they are disappointed, but not surprised, that work to repair the tunnel is being delayed. It will now reopen several weeks after the original deadline of May.
It is because engineers have been tied up working on other landslides and weather-related problems across the region.

Island Hibiscus
With over 200 species, hibiscus is not only one of the most beautiful of all tropical plants, the flowers and oil are also widely used in many health and beauty products. Now you can enjoy this wonderful scent in Island Hibiscus Fragrance Oil. Floral notes of hyacinth, jasmine and gardenia blend with a hint of light musk and amber to round out this intoxicating blend.
- Island Hibiscus
All I can say is this scent is AWESOME!!! It actually surpassed my favorite scent!! Wow!! So glad I tried it when you have the special of 1oz scents.

- Love the FO but hot throw not strong enough.
I realllly love the smell of the FO but I wish the hot throw was a little stronger. The 8 oz candle I made with this at 10% FO made my bedroom smell good but it was a very light smell. The scent itself is great if you don't like super strong candles. Very fresh and floral. I use 464 wax & 10% FO.
- Smells perfume-y
Maybe I just don't know what hibiscus is supposed to smell like, but I liked the description of this fragrance and the other positive review. However, I found the scent to be reminiscent of and old lady's perfume. I would consider using this in soap, but I know I won't use it in a candle.
- Gorgeous Fragrance
This was so different than what I expected! It reminds me of Givenchy's Amarige! Its a warm, rich floral, just beautiful. It reminds me of Paris, love!

Town Square
Talk About A Free Ride
Original post made by Them Apples on May 7, 2013
Add the incompetence of the 2008 council which put a Stanford fox in the henhouse by selecting a consultant with ties to Stanford to oversee the creation of the specific plan That consultant was also working on a 5 million sf Stanford campus in Redwood City at the same time. Does anyone think the consultant didn't think about Stanford's development design every day during the entire specific plan process?
Throw in a million dollar environmental review and traffic study paid for by the city that now appear to favor Stanford's dump of 6,400 new cars on El Camino real and the bottom line seems to be Menlo Park sold the ranch for a dime.
What did Menlo Park get? No hotel and no hotel tax. No senior housing which the community needs and which produces less traffic than office. No bike tunnel. No real plaza for people to gather. No real public benefit.
Free land, free development costs, free top notch consultant working behind the scenes for Stanford's interests, free EIR and traffic study for approximately $1.7M and not one public benefit for Menlo Park.
The university brags that its endowment is not at $17Billion. The city council and staff were played for fools. Stanford Management Company is made up of very clever employees. They must be in stitches. Dumb little town gets tricked by a big university. Why don't we just call it the Stanford Plan, our gift to Stanford.

This is a repackaged non-story designed to rekindle a "controversy." Now the editors will delete this comment.
Peter Carpenter -- your rationality services are needed again.
on May 8, 2013 at 11:04 am
Peter Carpenter is a registered user.
Once again cute words are being used in place of facts.
"Free land" - does that mean if you are a long time Menlo Park property owner that your land was free or somehow now belongs to your neighbors free of charge or what?
"Free development cost" - does the writer really believe that John Arrillaga will build this project for 'free' and that he does not expect, in fact require, a return on his investment?
" not one public benefit for Menlo Park" - just more new housing than Menlo Park itself has been able to create over the last ten years and about 25% of what the court has ordered. And jobs, and revenues to the city and the elimination of the current unsightly, non-revenue producing uses.
on May 8, 2013 at 11:13 am
Irreparable damage is being done to Menlo Park and the surrounding area. Our very own City Council and city employees are ushering in the damage by allowing zoning changes, and hoodwinking the citizens. ABAG has huge culpability here too. Stanford is fouling it's own nest.

Please use the buttons below to see more information on Harlequins and matches between Wasps and Quins over the years.
As well as getting off to a terrible start once the game kicked off, Wasps suffered yet another injury blow during the warmup, when Ben Jacobs pulled a hamstring. Seb Jewell came into the starting line-up with Mike Mayhew coming on to the bench.
Wasps made the worst possible start after failing to secure the kickoff. Quins controlled the ball through a series of phases, moving the ball right and left, before the forwards took the direct route into the 22 and Danny Care broke clear from a maul to go over for a try inside 90 seconds. Nic Evans converted, from in front of the posts.
Quins added a second try three minutes later after another steady buildup gave flanker Maurie Fa'asavalu the chance to crash over near the posts. Evans was on target with the conversion, to make it 14-0, after just six minutes.
The home side came close to a third try three minutes later after a move down the left involving Nick Easter and Ugo Monye but an inside pass went astray enabling Richard Haughton to break away from near his line. He crossed halfway, before kicking ahead, but the Quins defence got back to touch down for a 22.
Leon Holden gives his reaction after the game
With Andy Powell becoming increasingly influential, Wasps now began to play with more confidence and a superb weaving run by Joe Simpson set up a chance out on the right after he used his pace to race away from a scrum. Seb Jewell went for the line and the TMO eventually ruled that the try had been scored. Dave Walder landed a fine conversion to make the score 14-7 in the 13th minute.
With their confidence boosted, Wasps began to control possession and one superb run by David Lemi took play deep into the Quins half. After beating a series of defenders, he was caught just as he seemed set to go clear. Wasps kept the ball alive and a thrilling passage of play ended when Lemi was tackled into touch at the corner.
When Quins won a penalty, and set up a lineout inside the Wasps half, Ugo Monye came into the line but Serge Betsen conjured up a superb turnover to launch a counterattack with Seb Jewell making a fine run before being smothered by the defence.
Wasps were then forced into another substitution when David Lemi, who was clearly struggling, left the field to make way for Christian Wade. Wasps immediately won a penalty on the Quins ten-metre, but Dave Walder's kick at goal went just wide.
Two minutes later, after a defence-splitting break by Riki Flutey, Walder narrowed the gap to four points with a neat drop goal as the referee played advantage for a Wasps penalty on the Quins 22.
Quins restored their seven-point advantage when Wasps failed to control their own lineout after winning possession on halfway. Fa'asavalu pounced on the loose ball, and charged into the 22. Quins recycled quickly and moved play out to the left and Nick Easter almost powered his way over before Wasps were penalised and Evans landed a penalty to make the score 17-10 with eleven minutes of the half to play.
Wasps were then forced to make another substitution, when Rob Webber went off with an elbow injury, to his obvious frustration. His place was taken by Tom Lindsay, after a lengthy discussion with the officials on the touchline, as play continued, with Wasps down to 14 men.
Five minutes before halftime, Evans added another penalty after Wasps were caught offside in midfield 38 metres out. An Evans chip ahead then almost snatched a third try, two minutes before the break, but Richard Haughton managed to beat Mike Brown to the ball as it bounced dangerously, in the in-goal area. From the dropout, Wasps conceded another penalty in midfield and Evans was again on target, to make the halftime score 23-10 to the home side after a 40 minutes of thrilling rugby in which Wasps had showed great character and commitment, and no little skill, after such a disastrous start.
Wasps had an early chance to narrow the gap, three minutes into the second half, but Dave Walder missed a long-range penalty. Four minutes later, Evans went for the posts, from a similar distance, and he made no mistake, to give Quins a commanding 26-10 lead.
Now trailing by three scores, Wasps had no option but to turn down a kickable penalty and go for the corner. After winning their lineout, they were initially forced back, before releasing the ball to the backs. Christian Wade almost went over but Wasps kept it alive and Tom Lindsay eventually went over from close range with the try again confirmed by the TMO. Walder's conversion made it 26-17 with eleven minutes of the second half gone.
The unerring boot of Evans struck again on the hour, when he stroked over a long-range penalty from nearly 50 metres, wide out on the left.
With just over a quarter of an hour left, Zak Taulafo came on for Ben Broster, and Serge Betsen, who'd worked tirelessly all night, was then replaced by Sam Jones.
Eight minutes from time, Wasps set up a thrilling climax, when Richard Haughton went over in the right corner, after a superb burst by Riki Flutey down the left took play deep into Quins territory, and Joe Launchbury and Zak Taulafo both went close. Dave Walder could not land the difficult conversion, so it stood at 29-22.
Just over four minutes from time, Quins patiently set up the position for Evans to make the game safe with a perfectly hit drop goal from 30 metres. Wasps continued to battle away, and a dazzling run by Christian Wade, after he was sent clear by Riki Flutey, almost brought a fourth try, but Quins controlled possession in the final minute, and Care's kick to touch sealed their victory, after a magnicent game of rugby.
Wasps are back in Premiership action next weekend, when they take on Leeds Carnegie at Adams Park, on Sunday April the 17th.

Staying one step ahead of the intruders
Blue Pill Detection
The latest trend is virtualized rootkits. A virtualized rootkit works like a virtual machine: The first step is for the rootkit to modify the boot process so that a virtual machine is loaded before the operating system. The operating system you think is running on the hardware actually boots in a virtual machine. This gives the rootkit total control over the computer without the operating system or the user noticing a thing. This approach was demonstrated by Blue Pill [1], which explains why the process of identifying virtual rootkits is known as Blue Pill Detection.
Rootkits are very difficult to detect once they are installed on your system. Before they install, however, you can identify them with anti-virus programs and rootkit scanners (or rootkit detectors), which use signatures or heuristics to identify the culprits.
The best way to stop a rootkit is not to let it in. The articles in this issue discuss some techniques for shutting out intruders before they get comfortable.
In spite of all your efforts, however, you will never be safe enough to ignore the possibility of a rootkit slipping past your defenses. The following sections discuss some strategies for rooting out rootkits.
To Build, or Not to Build
Administrators are asked to build most rootkit scanners before they can use them. As you can imagine, this is a problem if the rootkit already has a stranglehold on your system. In this case, the compiler may already have been compromised by the rootkit, and would build a manipulated version of the scanner. For this reason, you should try to build the scanner as soon as possible after installing the system, or use a system that you know is clean.
Visual Check
Because the results on a running system are not entirely conclusive, you should down the suspect and then boot from a medium that you know is clean. This could be a rescue disk, for example. The real test is to cross check any suspicious files with files from a clean system. This is usually accomplished by comparing the current system with a snapshot of the system taken directly after installation. To prevent the rootkit from affecting the results of the comparison, store the original snapshot on a read-only medium.
Of course, a backup of a complete system takes significant disk space. As an alternative, you could just create checksums for an integrity check. To do this, the rootkit scanner calculates a fingerprint for each file; if the rootkit later attempts to manipulate the file, the checksum is automatically changed and will thus not match the original checksum stored at the time of the last upgrade.

Tottenham Hotspur 4, Liverpool 0. This was an afternoon Kenny Dalglish and company would do well to forget. Two red cards sealed the deal for the visitors, but Spurs were the better side even when the Reds had eleven men on the pitch, dominating the midfield and going ahead early thanks to a beautiful strike by Luka Modric, who sent a loose ball crashing off the underside of Pepe Reina's crossbar with a first time shot from long range.
That was in the seventh minute, but it wasn't long until another blow befell Liverpool when Daniel Agger was forced off the pitch with a hip injury. Sebastian Coates was the replacement for the defender, making his Premier League debut, but he wasn't on the pitch for long at all before another Liverpool player departed thanks to Charlie Adam, already on a yellow card, putting his studs through Scott Parker's knee.
Referee Mike Jones had little option, showing a second yellow and sending the Scotland international off. Things settled into an easy groove from then on, with Liverpool coming up with the occasional chance of an equaliser while Tottenham were happy to hit on the counterattack, but yeah, things got worse for the visitors again. Much worse. Martin Skrtel had been having a bad time against Gareth Bale all evening, having, like Adam, already picked up a yellow card during his struggle to contain the Spurs midfield, so when he want through the Welshman's back he too was dismissed. Liverpool were down to nine, with barely an hour gone.
Within five minutes, Spurs had added two more goals through Jermain Defoe and Emmanuel Adebayor, both of whom had been guilty of missing chances that would have put Liverpool away long before Skrtel's dismissal. At 3-0, the game was totally unrecoverable, and the visitors were forced to endure Tottenham playing Barcelona-style passing football until the last minute of the match, when Adebayor was released to control expertly and volely pass Reina for his brace.
Not the Reds' finest moment, eh?
