General Information
If you are seeking a master's degree with a concentration in school library science in either elementary/middle or secondary education, you are required to complete successfully a written comprehensive examination.
The examination is given in the fall and spring each year. Students must register for the examination at least 30 days in advance by submitting the application form to the Department of Curriculum and Instruction. Students who wish to use a computer to take the exam must also submit the computer request form. Submission of this form does not guarantee that you will be able to use a computer to complete your examination.
This examination contains questions that cover the competencies that are found in courses throughout the library science curriculum. To help you prepare for this examination, the faculty has developed a database of questions which are posted on the Web. The rubric which will be used to evaluate your responses is also available on the Web. You should carefully review both the questions and the rubric. For superior work, the reviewers will be looking for content that is comprehensive and reveals knowledge of and treatment of various perspectives on the subject. The content should also be well written and should reflect graduate-level quality (e.g., clear, concise, proper grammar, syntax, spelling and marks of punctuation). When writing responses, it is acceptable include tables, bullets, or other organizers to address specific points in the question. On the day of the examination, you will receive 6 questions from this database and must answer 4 questions. Special accommodations will be made for students with documented disabilities.
Administrative Procedures
On the day of the examination, you must appear at the examination center by 8:15 a.m. and must have photo identification. At that time, you will be assigned a number which you should use throughout the exam. Books and/or other materials must be left at the front of the room. The faculty administering the examination will have dictionaries available for you to use. They will also provide the blue books that are needed. If you have received permission to take your examination on computer, you will need to bring a blank disk with you. When taking the exam, you should place only your number on the outside of the blue book or at the heading of the print-out. Please use a separate blue book or print-out for each question. When you are finished with each question, you should place the question inside the blue book with your answer or attach it to the print-out of your response.
During the exam, you will receive questions in sets of two. The first three questions will be given to you at 8:30 a.m. and must be returned at 10:30 a.m. Of the three that you receive at this time you must select two to answer. After a 20 minute break, you will receive the second set of three questions at 10:50. You must answer two of these questions and submit your answers by 12:50.
Evaluation Procedures
Each comprehensive examination question will be scored by at least two (2) faculty members using the Comprehensive Exam Scoring Sheet. A total of 8 points is needed to pass the examination. If you do not receive passing scores from the first two reviewers, your examination will be reviewed. The highest two scores on each question will be used to compute the final total.
If you fail the comprehensive examination, you may elect to repeat the examination process in accordance with the university procedure the next time that the examination is offered. Following the initial administration, you are limited, by university policy, to one (1) reexamination. If you fail the written comprehensive examination twice, you will not be able to receive the master's degree.
Suggestions for Success
The following are some suggestions that other students have found helpful when studying for the comprehensive examination.
- Most students perform better when they don't try to memorize the answers verbatim. You may waste valuable time and become anxious when you cannot retrieve a specific word or phrase. Instead, you may want to outline each answer including the key points and examples.
- Some students prefer to practice their responses in a bluebook or to conduct a mock exam (i.e., put all of the questions in a hat, pull out two and answer them, take a break and then pull out two more). The more familiar you are with the process, the more comfortable and less anxious you will become.
- You might want to contact other students and have a study group to review the information that will be covered in the examination. Individual students can be responsible for reviewing two or three of the questions in the database and leading a discussion of that question with the whole study group.
- The quality of your written presentation is critical to your success. Be sure your answer is well formulated and that the mechanics are free of errors (e.g., punctuation, spelling, grammar, and syntax). Dictionaries and thesauruses will be available for your use.


text: Last Monday we took Oso the dog to the vet to get fixed. My wife Laura was told that the previous Saturday night someone had burglarized the vet's office. The burglars made one mistake. They broke in through Kelly's window and went in. Kelly met them and was not happy. Kelly is the vet's kitty, a 40 pound Lynx-Bobcat mix. The burglars went out the window with Kelly right behind them. I imagine they had to change their underwear afterwards. When they were gone Kelly jumped back in the open window. That's a burglar alarm that really alarms the burglars!

Re: Finally HOME!
Glad you are over the hump and back at home. Much easier to recuperate in familiar, loving surroundings. You will probably enjoy Cardiac ReHab, I know I did. Sure gives you a new perspective on things as well as the tools to cope with the next stage in your recovery. You will be in my prayers (+) as you continue down this road.

The Atlanta Braves received very little out of Jason Heyward, B.J. Upton and Dan Uggla during the first two months of the season. That finally changed in June.
Heyward, who got off to an incredibly unlucky start before needing an appendectomy, finally saw some luck go his way in June as his BABIP began returning to normal. He went on to hit .312/.370/.495 with a team-high 1.2 WAR, ranking as one of the better players in the National League during that span.
It was only a matter of time before J-Hey started hitting again. And despite what the hundreds of hitting coaches on Twitter and the blogosphere say, the fact is that his swing is fine and his critics are simply looking at things to nitpick for one unjustified reason or another. Hey, at least you weren't the one to compare him to Jeff Francoeur.
B.J. Upton dropped his strikeout rate to 24.3% in June, which is right on par with his career average. He also walked 16.5% of the time. This begs the question as to why he still isn't leading off, but that's an argument for a different time.
Upton batted .238/.359/.452 the past month, posting a 0.8 WAR in that time. It seems B.J. is still working out some kinks in his swing, but I have very little doubt Braves fans would happily accept a .811 OPS the rest of the way from the center fielder.
Uggla really turned it on late in June to post a line of .250/.394/.452. Outside of his crazy run in July and August of 2011, that's probably the best month he's had since coming to Atlanta. He continued to strike out a ton, but as long as Dan continues to walk (19.2% in June) and hit for power (.202 ISO) he will be more than serviceable at the plate.
One other stat I found to be pretty cool: Evan Gattis had two hits in June before landing on the disabled list. They were both home runs.

New York Giants running back Ahmad Bradshaw has been ruled out of Thursday night's game against the Carolina Panthers, according to head coach Tom Coughlin.
Bradshaw injured his neck during Sunday's win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and will not be traveling with the team to Carolina. Coughlin would not go into the specifics of the injury.
This means that running back Andre Brown will be making his first career start in his place. Brown rushed for 71 yards on 13 attempts with one touchdown in relief of Bradshaw in Sunday's game against Tampa Bay. Originally selected with the No. 129 pick in the 2009 NFL Draft by the Giants, Brown was involved in over 20 transactions with five clubs before earning a spot on the Giants practice squad last year (he went on to make the 53-man roster this year).

KENNEWICK, Wash. - A man from Kennewick remains in critical condition, in a coma after a motorcycle accident last month.
Benton County Sheriff Deputies say 31-year-old Cory Curtis crashed his bike on Clodfelter Road when an 80-pound dog ran into the street in front of him.
For the last few weeks, his family members have been raising money to cover medical costs while he's in the hospital.
They say the single dad doesn't have health insurance, and they're not sure when he'll wake up.
"It's gut wrenching," said Mike Nelson, Curtis's uncle. "Knowing that someone you love dearly is lying there, and after he wakes up from the coma, he could be just fine, then again he could be gravely disabled. Obviously as a family we're very concerned and worried about that."
If you'd like to help out, there are two Cory Curtis benefit funds set up at Gesa and HAPO credit unions.
His family is also accepting donation items for an upcoming fundraising auction event on July 13th.
For more information about how to donate or contact his family, click here.

In vertebrates, the mandible, lower jaw or jawbone[1] is a bone forming the skull with the cranium.
In lobe-finned fishes and the early fossil tetrapods, the bone homologous to the mandible of mammals is merely the largest of several bones in the lower jaw. In such animals, it is referred to as the dentary bone, and forms the body of the outer surface of the jaw. It is bordered below by a number of splenial bones, while the angle of the jaw is formed by a lower angular bone and a suprangular bone just above it. The inner surface of the jaw is lined by a prearticular bone, while the articular bone forms the articulation with the skull proper. Finally a set of three narrow coronoid bones lie above the prearticular bone. As the name implies, the majority of the teeth are attached to the dentary, but there are commonly also teeth on the coronoid bones, and sometimes on the prearticular as well.[2]
This complex primitive pattern has, however, been simplified to various degrees in the great majority of vertebrates, as bones have either fused or vanished entirely. In teleosts, only the dentary, articular, and angular bones remain, while in living amphibians, the dentary is accompanied only by the prearticular, and, in salamanders, one of the coronoids. The lower jaw of reptiles has only a single coronoid and splenial, but retains all the other primitive bones except the prearticular and the periosteum.[2]
While, in birds, these various bones have fused into a single structure, in mammals most of them have disappeared, leaving an enlarged dentary as the only remaining bone in the lower jaw - the mandible. As a result of this, the primitive jaw articulation, between the articular and quadrate bones, has been lost, and replaced with an entirely new articulation between the mandible and the temporal bone. An intermediate stage can be seen in some therapsids, in which both points of articulation are present. Aside from the dentary, only few other bones of the primitive lower jaw remain in mammals; the former articular and quadrate bones survive as the malleus and the incus of the middle ear.[2]
Finally, the cartilagenous fish, such as sharks, do not have any of the bones found in the lower jaw of other vertebrates. Instead, their lower jaw is composed of a cartilagenous structure homologous with the Meckel's cartilage of other groups. This also remains a significant element of the jaw in some primitive bony fish, such as sturgeons.[2]
- ^ The mandible is also in some sources still referred to as the inferior maxillary bone, though this is an outdated term which goes back to at least the 1858 first edition of Gray's Anatomy, if not earlier.

Who are you, and what have you done with the Buffalo Bills? Today in Orchard Park it's Ryan Fitzpatrick and company, putting on an unlikely passing clinic, as the Buffalo QB just completed a 68-yard touchdown pass to receiver Donald Jones. Over the first few weeks of the season it was Buffalo's run game that kept its offense moving, but today Fitzpatrick is stepping up with his third touchdown.
A short pass split the DB and linebacker. From there the Patriots weren't prepared as a safety was too deep to be able to tackle Jones.
The Bills are feeling it, the Patriots are reeling, and Fitzpatrick is most definitely feeling it.

Example Citation:
"This Israeli motorist with a cell phone in each ear, driving with his elbows, gets my vote as the poster boy for the social disease of the next millennium overconnectedness. This is the real Y2K virus for developed countries. It is the anxiety that is going to be produced when telecommunications combines with the "Evernet" the technology that will soon allow people to get on line from their watches, their cars, their toasters or their Walkmans so that everyone will be able to be connected all the time, everywhere."

Thomas L. Friedman, "The Y2K Social Disease," The New York Times, August 10, 1999
With all the different ways that people can connect to the Internet these days, Thomas Friedman's "overconnectedness" neologism seems like a useful addition to the lexicon. Unfortunately, the only citations I can find for it are reprints of Mr. Friedman's original article or commentaries on his original article. So it's not "post-worthy" yet, but I'll keep an eye on it.

smells floral... hoppy... crisp... i like to smell it before I pour then smell it again after...it smells like you'd expect from a California IPA... love those California IPAs...
pours a nice orange wheat color... thin head... looks clean and crisp.. matches its smell...
nice finish... not real assertive upfront... and it's mouthfeel is decent... not the greatest IPA... but a good one... I would expect more mouthfeel from an Imperial IPA surprisingly well balanced for the style... this will probably hit me hard.. 8.5%
with more and more sips I'm starting to appreciate the MF a little more... i'm upping the anti in that category...
taste is refreshing too...

Nice to see a new line of Cali beers here in Greensboro.Poured into a imperial pint glass a hazed mix of burnt orange and copper,a tight formed one finger egg shell colored head atop.Big citric and floral aromas,really fresh and pungeant.Flavors are not overly sweet and alcoholic like alot of DIPA's,big resiny hop flavors with some citric fruitiness,the malt is sweetish and holds up well to the hops.The alcohol is well hidden and it stills packs a pretty good hop punch,a nice beer.

3.73/5 rDev -4.4%
Appearance - This is a beauty shop. The golden liquid is lightly toned with orange and the beautiful white head puffed up just right and showed great retention.
Smell - This has a righteous hop bouquet and is perfectly balanced with pine, herbs, and a wonderful juicy orange citrus. The malts though are largely absent.
Taste - The grain comes out more in the taste. It is a bit rough around the edges but still quite pleasant. The hops flavor is just as good at the tongue as it was on the nose. The citrus that I enjoyed so much at the smell comes on even a bit more at the taste.
Mouthfeel - This is medium-bodied but just barely with some light carbonation and a good amount of bitterness.
Drinkability - This is an easy-going ale. If it really is a double it's borderline though, but classifications aside it is quite enjoyable.

A bomber poured into a snifter. Gold/amber color, slight haze. Thick off-white head resembling whipped cream. A lot of lace.
A lot of sweet malt in the aroma. Big citrus aroma also, as well as some peppery hops.
Predominately grapefruit taste, sweet biscuit, late piney hops.
One of the sweetest DIPAs I've tried. Well-hopped, not overly aggressive. Very smooth.
Will look for this again during my stay in Albuquerque.

Coronado Idiot IPA, 2010
Pours resembles a non filtered copper cider with a resilient white head. Strong smell of oranges and pine trees. The taste is a bright boquet of hops, hops, hops, and more hops that lingers on the tongue for an extended amount of time. The body is crisp, yet strong enough to please any pallet any time of the year. If you're not a hop lover than choose to pass.

A- On tap less than 1finger head, quickly gone. Nice golden to copper tones and slightly hazey. Mountains of lacing on the glass and legs that look like waterfalls.
S-strawberry and citrus noted very heavy. Nice fruity and balanced smell. Medium hop character to the nose.
T- balanced fruity bitterness:
Pine, Strawberry, grapefruit, and and tangerine finish.
M-medium carbonation on the front of the tongue and a bite from enough hops in the back of the palate. Smooth finish with a slightly dry mouthfeel.
O- a nice DIPA that packs enough punch at 8.5, this one I consider a solid choice.

Appearance is pale and a bit hazy. That might be chill haze.
Smell is wonderful - mostly tropical, with some citrus. For the hops on the bottle, I'm surprised there's so little pine.
There's some pine in the flavor, but not much else. I don't get much malt, although it doesn't taste like hop tea so there's "enough" there. I'm a non-taster, so I can't tell you how much bitterness is in this brew, but I'm guessing it's what us East-Coasters call a "hop bomb".
Mouthfeel is good - enough sweetness to linger, without being thick.
Overall, this is a nice IPA in terms of hop aroma and flavor, but not something I could drink a lot of.

Pours clear auburn with a stocky white head. Rich aroma of piney hops, grapefruit, and a bit of peaches. Oily mouthfeel. Tangy citrus flavors mix well with the resiny and peppery hops. Still that hint of peaches. Kind of makes it taste lighter than it is. Good stuff.

The Abolitionists or absolute bull: The myth of the Great White Hope
Part 1 of 'The Abolitionists' airs Tuesday, Jan. 8, 9 p.m., on KQED
by Truth Minista Paul Scott
"Most of my heroes don't appear on no stamp." – "Fight the Power" by Public Enemy
The year is 2020, and Goebbels Entertainment Co. has just released its Academy Award nominated documentary, "Rap Unchained," about how Hip Hop was successful in emancipating millions of Black children from mental slavery during the late '80s. While it briefly mentions the contributions of a few Black rappers of the time, the majority of the film is dedicated to one great man who risked his life by speaking out on behalf of millions of oppressed African Americans. This great hero is none other than the rap abolitionist himself, Vanilla Ice.
This week, PBS will air "The Abolitionists," a movie about people who during the 19th century spoke out against the evils of chattel slavery. While the flick does feature Frederick Douglass, instead of rounding out the cast with Nat Turner, Gabriel Prosser and Denmark Vesey, it focuses on the lives of good white folks like William Lloyd Garrison, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Angelina Grimke and John Brown. Thus, it reinforces the idea that my ancestors were a bunch of punks during slavery, whinin' in the cotton fields, waiting on the day when some white saviors would free them from bondage.
Like many other topics regarding history, the Abolitionist Movement has been subject to historical revisionism and an attempt by white America to pick our heroes.
Although the film's trailer proudly proclaims that "if it had not been for the abolitionists, the United States would have thoroughly been a slave nation," historian Herbert Aptheker wrote in his book , "American Negro Slave Revolts," that there were more than 200 slave rebellions in this country.
Like many other topics regarding history, the Abolitionist Movement has been subject to historical revisionism and an attempt by white America to pick our heroes.
What is also glossed over by historians is the fact that while many of the white abolitionists did not agree with slavery as an institution, they themselves were still white supremacists who believed that Black people were innately inferior to Whites. Just because an animal rights activist might protest against cruelty to Fido, the pit bull, doesn't mean that he wants to take him out for dinner and a movie.
Of course, I'm not the first to point this out. In 1837, Rev. Theodore Wright told the New York Slave Anti-Slavery Society that their doctrine must include "recognizing all men as brothers."
Although Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel, "Uncle Tom's Cabin," is applauded for the role it played in raising awareness about slavery, in his book , "Race: The History of an Idea in America," Dr. Thomas Gossett claimed that the novel still "made it quite clear that, in spite of the Negro's humility and aptitude for religion, he is innately inferior."
It must be also noted that the idea that groups whose religious convictions should have made them longtime allies in the fight against slavery has also been blown way out of proportion. In her book , "Criminalizing of a Race," Dr. Charshee McIntyre revealed that "as representatives of the emerging capitalist order, reformers could extend charity to the lowliest segment of laborers, but not even the Quakers could view Blacks as potential autonomous beings."
Douglass, however, believed that Black people should have been at the head of the Abolitionist Movement.
Although much has been written about the white Jewish connection to Black suffering, Harold Cruse wrote in, "Plural but Equal," that it was not until 1915, after the lynching of Leo Frank by a white Atlanta mob, that Jews began to identify with the suffering of African Americans. Cruse writes that the idea that the Jewish community cared much about Black folks prior to that time is "an inaccurate generalization because it was never explained how Jews as a group were involved in contrast to certain individual Jews."
The main issue here is that the further that we get away from a time period, the more distorted the historical accuracy becomes. If we are not careful, even modern phenomena such as Hip Hop will eventually become distorted.
If we are not careful, our grandchildren will believe that just because Vanilla Ice was popular during the same time period as conscious artists such as Brand Nubian, then he was something other than a cheap, whitewashed version of MC Hammer. Or that even though a white rap group was called "Young Black Teenagers," they may believe that they were a socially conscious group, rather than a gimmick to prove that white kids could rap.
As we move forward, it must be noted that many of the so-called depictions of "Black History" fictitious or otherwise, have been told from the viewpoint of non-Black people, from "Django" to "The Abolitionists." Thus we find ourselves in the same dilemma as Frederick Douglass, almost a century and a half later.
The main issue here is that the further that we get away from a time period, the more distorted the historical accuracy becomes. If we are not careful, even modern phenomena such as Hip Hop will eventually become distorted.
The solution is that African Americans must become experts in the field of their own history, as no other racial group would dare trust the interpretation of their culture to others.
This is why we have started the Black by Nature, Conscious by Choice Campaign. During the late '80s, the rap group Public Enemy had as its mission to raise up 5,000 Black leaders. So, our task in 2013 is to raise up 5,000 Black scholars who will be experts in Black history, so they can defend our culture against distortions and teach the truth to our future generations.
As Nas said once, "I can." "If truth is told, the youth can grow. Then learn to survive until they gain control."

3 thoughts on "The Abolitionists or absolute bull: The myth of the Great White Hope"
Anita Wills
I am pleased to see critical comments about the Abolitionist. I am the author of three books documenting People of Color whose achievements were ignored. Several of my ancestors fought in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, and the Civil War. When I located the rosters of these men of Color in Virginia and Pennsylvania, and printed them in my first book, Notes and Documents of Free Persons of Color, the silence was deafening. My third book is titled, Black Minqua The Life and Times of Henry Green, and details my ancestors participation in the Christiana Resistance. It is sad that most African Americans do not get credit or even know about this event. When I held a book signing in Lancaster County Pennsylvania, most of those who purchased my book, were White.
My Ancestor Henry Green and several other blacks from Lancaster County Pennsylvania were part of an event known as the Christiana Resistance. The event took place on 9/11/1851 (Note the Date), and was called a Precursor to the Civil War, by Frederick Douglass. A group of free blacks formed an Organization for the express purpose of ensuring that escaped slaves were not captured. Led by William Parker, an escaped slave himself, they Patrolled the area from Lancaster to Philadelphia and confronted the white patrols. On several occasions they freed slaves in the possession of the white militia. The men knew the night before that Edward Gorsuch was in the area looking for his slaves who were at the Parker House in Christiana. Gorsuch was accompanied by a Federal Marshall and deputies thanks to the Fugitive Slave Act. It was a confrontation that did not end well for Gorsuch who refused to leave Parkers door without his Property. Parker told the Slave Owner that no man could own another man, and his "Property' was not there. As Gorsuch attempted to gain entrance to the Parker House a shot rang out and the slave owner fell to the ground dead.
When the Marshall and Posse looked around they were surrounded by a sea of angry black faces. The men were summoned by a French Horn blown out the attic window by Parkers wife Eliza. The angry men attacked the Militia, all of whom led to the hills with the Marshall in the lead. It is interesting to note that the Marshall and Militia were armed and the blacks only had farm tools and other objects they picked up along the way. Later that day Parker and his family went into hiding and that night Parker set out on the Underground Railroad headed for Canada. Thirty-Eight Blacks were arrested the next day and only four whites. The blacks were held in pens until the trial while the whites were let out on bail. It was Thaddeus Stephens defense that got the men acquitted of Treason. It was the trial of the century, but don't expect to read about it in the history books. Many of the men, including my Great-Great Grandfather, Henry Green served in the United States Colored Troops during the Civil War. For those like Henry, who remained in the area their heroism, was hidden and is only told as a Local History Event. They have streets named after them, but Edward Gorsuch name is listed with the men who fought against him. One of the white men, is always mentioned as the leader of the event that took place that day. There are several book about that day, including my own, Black Minqua The Life and times of Henry Green, Pieces of the Quilt the Mosaic of An African American Family, both available at Amazon.com; http://www.amazon.com/Pieces-Quilt-Mosaic-African…. Two other books, Bloody Dawn and But We have No Country, are detailed accounting's of the Christiana Resistance.↓
A documentry that was done on Mr. Douglass should include Nat Turner, Harriet Tubman and other
ACTUAL Black Abolitionist↓
Education is most certainly the key. However, as a white woman who thoroughly defends and upholds equality of all races/genders/religions/sexualities, I also am concerned about the perpetual segregation within these same groups done so in the name of specific racial power, especially in the lower class. Growing up in inner city, poor neighborhoods, I often felt and still feel, at times, a sense of racial insecurity. For a short period, I actually came to openly verbalize my dislike for my own race. Obviously, these feelings stemmed from actual injustices I had witnessed by white people but, nonetheless, racial unity needs to be the ultimate encouragement. I came to accept and enjoy that my friends said, 'you're not white for real, you a nigga like us.' Eventually, during college, I realized that I need to acknowledge my own race and be proud that I can recognize racial suppression and do something about it. Believe it or not, I wished, often, that I wasn't white because I knew I would be more accepted by my peers in general.
At a time when so many children are of mixed races, we need to put a full force concentration on building the child as a whole. Not as a black girl or a white boy or an asian girl. We have to encourage unity WHILE we educate ourselves, and not solely on our own race but on all races. There is a problem with identity issues in mixed youth and with minorities among upper class and white children in the lower class. I thoroughly agree with your article but I would love to see more concentration on acceptance and unity for the generations to come. It has been encouraging to me, after having educated myself on the abolitionist movement, to find that there were some whites who fought slavery and the oppression of fellow man. I hope that you are not claiming such a thing did not exist. It is also necessary to remember that these people were taught, as an absolute from educational authorities, that African Americans were an inferior race. In no way am I excusing this but imagine the will and forethought that was needed in order to fight what was considered to be absolute truth. There are things you and I have belief in now that will be deemed false over time.
There are numerous forms of modern day slavery in effect right now; women, children and men who are savagely beaten, murdered, and oppressed daily. And while I'm not sure of your particular involvement in the aid of those individuals, I surely know that I can be doing more and consequently, am in no place to criticize the measures of those before me. White abolitionists deserve credit, not the same credit, but they do deserve it. With all this being said, I am not in anyway denying my privileges as a white woman nor supporting the ideology of 'color blindness' in this country, there are differences, rather unfortunate inequalities but I have come to stand proud as a white woman who in no way tolerates ignorance, prejudice, hatred, or defilement. I admit, I haven't met many white people like me, but the truth is, I haven't met many human beings with my mindset in general.↓

Team Dynasty dodgeball team. by R.C. - over 7 years ago

Inside mounted roller shades will have an approximate 1" vertical "light gap" between the edge of the fabric and the window casing on side with the cord loop, and a 5/8" light gap on the other side. This is because the fabric must be cut narrower than the operating mechanisms at the top. For room darkening applications consider adding side panels, an Outside Mount with 4 to 6" extra width or other room darkening products such as blackout honeycomb shades, which have smaller light gaps.
This product complies with CPSC child safety guidelines. If you have children in your home on a regular basis, CPSC recommends the use of cordless window coverings.

Once again I will have to show my football ignorance if Kenny has to be "kicked upstairs" after this season why is the front runner in a lot of LFC fans minds Rafa Benitez?(who I just discovered I share a birthday with April 16th but I digress) I know he was a very successful former LFC manager but correct me if I am wrong but wasn't Kenny also a very successful former LFC manager? How is that working out for us by the way?
Liverpool seems to be a bit like the Yankees used to be when they kept bringing back Billy Martin every time the wheels seemed to be falling off.
My American football background tells me you do not have to hire a "Known" coach to win I have never heard of Mike McCarthy before Green Bay hired him same for Mike Homlgren. You are telling me that going back to Rafa is the only answer I do not buy it. It strikes me as a team nation LFC fans tend to live in the past being a Packer fan I understand that lived that for 25 years before they got good again. But with all the leagues out there their has to be a younger up and coming coach who could step in who is more in touch with the current state of the game and its players to take over for Kenny. I am just too new to the game to know who some of these possible candidates might be.
Hell maybe Kenny with one or two more pieces is the right guy if we could finish this team would be lethal they are solid on Defense rarely giving up more than 2 goals in a game. But this is where I go all wind sock on Kenny his line up decisions and his misguided loyalties to guys like Charlie Hollywood tell me he is not at this time and place in the Liverpool timeline the right guy to get us back into the top 4 and having us challenging for the league title.
I personally think Bobbie Valentine is the only reason FSG has not already let Kenny go Yes I know we still have FA but I follow a baseball team that fired its manager 9 days before they played in the playoffs so I know even limited success will not always save you. Wow way off topic now, but I do that.
So tell me if Kenny goes, does not matter if he is pushed or he jumps who would you want to replace him and why remember you have to talk slowly and explain why because I am not very bright about football ok :)
Final though is anyone else as grateful for the end of the season as I am?

This route starts on Father #1 but hangs a right on knobs at the first of the large folds of rock on the face (use long slings on your last piece of gear before heading right). Traverse up and right below the fold until you reach the bolted face climbing. The crux comes near the top. It is a pretty cool route with interesting face climbing and some crack thrown in the mix.
A few hands size and long runners for the beginning. TCUs or stoppers can be placed in the horizontal seam. Quick draws for the face climbing above.

Between lightened-up classics like wings and chili and creative twists on pizza and seven-layer dip, something on this list is sure to inspire your next tailgate. The real question is: are you ready for some football? Lightened-Up 7-Layer Dip What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Dairy and refried beans keep traditional seven-layer dip heavy on fat. For a fresh take on a favorite, this lightened-up recipe still curbs cravings but with much less fat and far more fiber.

Mathematicians use math theory, computational techniques, algorithms, and computer technology to solve problems in various fields, including basic sciences, engineering, computer science, economics, business, finance, and social sciences. The study of math is divided into pure (theoretical) mathematics, which involves discovering new mathematical principles and relationships, and applied mathematics, which involves the use of mathematics to solve practical problems. Statistics is a category in applied mathematics that involves data analysis.
Advances in technology have led to an increased demand for workers with knowledge of mathematics. Math graduates work in a broad range of positions in business, education and government. The most common areas of employment for mathematicians are in computer science and software development, engineering, operations research, actuarial analysis, financial analysis, statistics and teaching. The federal government employs many mathematicians. Bachelor graduates work in entry-level jobs in government, as software developers and programmers (with computer science experience), as actuarial analysts (with actuarial concentration), as budget and financial analysts, as secondary teachers (licensure required), and other areas. A master's degree in math/statistics or a related field is required for research associates, statisticians, and operations research positions, which involve finding solutions in organizations for managing money, materials, inventory, scheduling, pricing, facilities, people, and other issues. A doctoral (Ph.D.) degree is required for high-level research positions in industry, government and medical facilities, in which math modeling/statistics is needed for solutions to complex problems. A Ph.D. is also required for university faculty positions, which involve teaching and directing research.

Budget Wise Fire & Life Safety Education Tips
We know that fire and smoke damage more than just people's possessions. They destroy memories, wreak financial havoc, and cause emotional and physiological stress — and the water we use to extinguish the flames only adds to the destruction. So...
If you have events that are department sponsored, and all of your resources are tied up in making sure that the event is a success, you still have options. You can set up static displays along heavily travelled routes to get event participants talking. If there are places where people have to stand in line to get pancakes, ride on trucks, or watch a demonstration, set up displays on their path. Talk about a captive audience! Some advertisers would die to have a captive audience standing in front of their product for seconds or minutes. Capitalize on your opportunity with:
- Extinguisher and smoke alarm cutaways: Human nature makes people want to know how things work. Set up a display with diagrams, pictures or actual extinguishers and alarms. Label the elements of smoke alarms and fire extinguishers in words that are easy to understand. Explain the various types of smoke alarms and where they should be located throughout the house. Post the answers to commonly asked questions about smoke alarms and fire extinguishers — When do they need to be replaced? How do you dispose of old ones? How often do you need to test alarms? Which type of extinguisher works best for what?
- Posters with your NFIRS data: Provide information on your community's most common types of fire calls and ways to avoid those situations. If you don't have your own data, you can use the statewide or national data. Make flyers available with tips on how to avoid these calls.
Take full advantage of any opportunity you have to get in front of your community. Don't use budget and resource limitations as an excuse. All you need is a little ingenuity and some set-up time and you'll be effectively preventing fires and educating your community without needing extra resources or spending large amounts of money.
