Key Features
"The experience that I had in Granada prompted me to take an extra summer class to graduate with a Spanish minor because I learned so much. After I graduated from Gettysburg College, I moved to Chile to live there for a year and perfect my Spanish. Granada and SIT changed my life, and I'm really happy I studied where I did."
—Andrew Vermehren-Shepler, Gettysburg College
Complete Spanish Immersion
All program coursework and components are conducted in Spanish, enabling students to rapidly improve their language skills in one semester. Students take two intensive Spanish courses. Upon arrival, students are placed in one of three language levels, which provides each student the appropriate language acquisition necessary to complete a thematic course on community and social change.
Spanish classes strongly emphasize student involvement and inquiry in order to fully engage students in the language learning process. Students are able to acquire the tools needed to successfully connect with host families and conduct community service. Throughout the program, students are motivated and encouraged to use their language not only in the classroom but with host families and other community members.
Community Service Project
Students are able to greatly improve their conversation skills by completing volunteer service or participating in a community group or study.
Sample community projects include:
- Tutoring at a school (in subjects such as math, language, and social science)
- Volunteering at a homeless shelter
- Assisting in environmental or sports activities
- Working as an assistant English teacher at a local elementary or high school
Students typically commit to a minimum of four hours of work a week. The community service usually starts on the fourth week of the program. At the conclusion of the semester, students will conduct a final oral presentation and submit a 10- to 12-page written paper in Spanish. Students must also keep a reflection journal registering their observations, interviews, and critical analysis of their community service experience.
The community project is a core component of the program and grants students the opportunity to critically examine a topic, community, or situation related to social change in Spain, in a field-study context.
Uncovering Spain's Layers of Diversity
The program's thematic course focuses on the political, social, and cultural forces shaping contemporary Spain in the context of the country's turbulent history, growing diversity, and deeper integration within the European Union. Spain is a country long shaped by the cultural traditions of the diverse inhabitants that have called it home over the course of more than two millennia; these include Roman, Muslim, Jewish, and Christian communities. Present-day Spain has strengthened its role within the EU and developed strong relations with Latin American and Arab countries. As a result, Spain has one of the highest immigrant populations (at approximately 4.5 million) in the EU today.
Students uncover the traces of Spain's historic communities while experiencing firsthand its present diversity highly apparent throughout the city of Granada.
The course is conducted entirely in Spanish. Lecturers are drawn from the University of Granada, government agencies, local NGOs, and experts from the community.
Duration: 15 weeks
Program Base: Spain, Granada

Politics & Government
All Majors
Consider the influence that Joseph had on Egypt, the most powerful nation on earth at the time, and Daniel on Babylon. Fast forward to the time of Jesus. Consider the Sermon on the Mount and the political and economic lessons we derive from The Master Teacher that politics & government serve to advance The Great Commission.
We cannot survive, let alone thrive, in the world where Christ would have us serve without an understanding of the politics and governments that frame the portals through which we pass in our commissioned service. To do otherwise is naivety.

Our Commitment to You
Col. Ron Petitte interacts with students in a roundtable discussion
There is no science in Political Science; therefore, we offer you a broad-gauged liberal arts approach to the study of P&G that is Biblically based and enhanced by a dynamic law option.
We also offer a flexible program to enable students to double major: Currently students add Christian Ministry, Communication Studies, English, History, Mathematics and Criminal Justice to P&G. Historically, significantly more honors students have studied P&G than any other major. Two popular minors that complement P&G are Bible and Criminal Justice. Finally, fighting human trafficking has become a mission for P&G students.

Excellent location to airport quick taxi ride only 15-20 lira. Very clean private rooms with ensuite bathroom. Arrived late and checked out early. Have to buy breakfast also very expensive to upgrade to an air conditioned room approx 50 euro. Otherwise cheap option compared to a hotel.

Citrix XenDesktop hits the VDI high notes
Citrix XenDesktop 2.0 leverages streaming applications, server virtualization, and swift tools for a scalable and manageable virtual desktop infrastructure solutionFollow @pvenezia
It seems that the whole world has been talking about VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure), with very different views of what VDI actually means. If virtualization itself is an adolescent, VDI is still an infant, and thus there are still plenty of growing pains to come.
The major issues with VDI at this stage are deployment, management, and allocation of compute and storage resources. These are the same issues that face traditional desktops, but encapsulated within a single infrastructure component, where their effects are magnified.
[ Read InfoWorld Test Center reviews of Microsoft's Windows Hyper-V and Virtual Machine Manager and VMware's VI3 with ESX Server 3.5 and VirtualCenter 2.5. ]
Desktop workloads are necessarily very different things to different users. Data entry use cases are wildly different than power user or engineering use cases, for instance. When addressing different use cases within the same organization, it's far simpler to point and click to add resources where needed than it is to buy and install desktop systems for individual users, especially when those users will not require the horsepower afforded them every second of the day.
This is where VDI comes in. At first blush, it seems that all you'd need to have a functioning VDI implementation is a hypervisor, some desktop images, and an RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) client. At the base level, that's true. However, that ideal quickly fades when the realities of management and resource constraints hit home. This is where Citrix has been focusing its efforts.
Historically, Citrix has been associated with thin client desktop and application delivery, bringing to mind large farms of Windows servers running Citrix MetaFrame and delivering applications and desktop sessions to users via Citrix's ICA protocol. Each server was a member of a farm, but sessions could not migrate from server to server, and resources associated with a specific session were tied to that server for better or for worse.
VDI, on the other hand, is built with a specific desktop VM assigned to each user, not simply one of several dozen terminal services connections to the same server. Coupled with VM migration technologies, VDI prevents heavier users from impacting the rest of the users on a specific server, since their VM can seamlessly move to a less-busy host server.

Hollywood Prayer Network answers the question, "Why pray for Hollywood?" in this video. The group, which is an incredible ministry that many people can vouch for experiencing in tangible ways, says it is "a movement of prayer for the people, the projects, and the powerful impact of Hollywood: the world's most influential mission field."
HPN continues, "We are a nonprofit ministry led by industry Christians. HPN believes that by mobilizing people around the world to pray for entertainment professionals, we can be part of God's work in changing the spiritual climate of Hollywood, from the inside out. Whether you're an industry professional who wants prayer and support or a Christian who has a heart to pray for Hollywood, you can join the movement!"more >>
A veterans organization has called for a congressional hearing on certain activities at the Department of Veterans Affairs, alleging that the government entity is violating religious freedom.
The Louisiana-based group Military-Veterans Advocacy, Inc. sent a letter last week to Congressman Jeff Miller (R-Fla.), who chairs the Committee on Veterans Affairs.
Written by retired Navy Commander and Executive Director of Military-Veterans Advocacy J. B. Wells, the letter says that "the curtailment of religious freedom is widespread within the Department." more >>
Asia Noreen Bibi, the first Pakistani woman sentenced to death for blasphemy in November 2010, thanked Pope Francis and all the churches praying for her and credited them with her survival after four-and-a-half years in prison.
"I am very grateful to all the churches that are praying for me and fighting for my freedom. If I am still alive, it is thanks to the strength that your prayers give me," Bibi wrote in a Christmas letter to Pope Francis. While Bibi was sentenced to death in 2010, the verdict must be upheld by a superior court, and many petitions have protested her imprisonment.
Bibi lamented the fact that, while many people have spoken and fought for her, it is "to no avail." Even though she is still in prison, she said, "I just want to trust the mercy of God, who can do everything, that all is possible." Bibi wrote that in her dire situation, "Only God will be able to free me." more >>
In a recent post, Baylor University professor and founder of the popular blog "Christ and Pop Culture," Alan Noble, accused Fox News' Todd Starnes of effectively lying to his viewers by withholding important information in two stories the columnist recently covered, falsely giving an exaggerated "impression that the government is at war with Christians."
In the Dec. 25 story "VA hospital bans Christmas cards," Starnes wrote that "bedridden veterans at the VA hospital" had been denied receiving Christmas cards written by elementary school students because the letters "violated VA policy."
In Starnes' story, the VA explained its policy in this statement: more >>
A California church has received threats and criticism after placing a figure of a bloody Trayvon Martin in its nativity scene.
Since it hired artist John Zachary, 58, in 2007, Claremont United Methodist Church in Claremont, Calif., has used its nativity scene to intentionally spark what the church sees as challenging, and at times, uncomfortable conversations.
Zachary pointed to the second chapter of Matthew's description of King Herod calling for all boys younger than 2 to be killed, when discussing what inspired him to include the 17-year-old African American teenager in his setting. more >>
President Barack Obama did celebrate Christmas while vacationing with his family in Hawaii, but he didn't go to church yet another time. An unofficial White House historian says the president has attended church only 18 times during his nearly five years of presidency.
Obama sang carols, opened presents with his family, and visited a nearby military base in Hawaii, but he didn't attend Christmas church service – "something they have rarely done since he entered the White House," says The New York Times.
The Christian Post noted on Dec. 26 that a brief description of the president's Christmas Eve and Christmas Day activities, as provided by a White House press pool report, didn't mention churchgoing at all. more >>

At the new toy, comic book and collectible shop downtown, Vintage Villains, one can step back in time seeing vintage toys and video game systems, movie cards and comic books.
There also are newer items, including T-shirts, action figures and other items such as from The Walking Dead and Star Trek.
Partners Chris Perrault, a laid-off FreightCar employee, and Troy Walton have opened the shop, which opened today in the former Bruce Huff Photography business next to Hoarder's Paradise, at 103 N. Vermilion St.
The shop was formed by combining Perrault's Boutique Du Freak and Walton's Timewalk Collectibles.
Both had shops in the old McMillan Grade School in Westville, then stores in the old Diamond Grade School building on Batestown Road.
"It was harder to promote the two shops…," Perrault said.
But Perrault added they were very successful at the old Diamond Grade School.
Walton has had other shops too downtown and at the mall. Walton has more non-sports cards and different items Perrault didn't have.
They both had general collectible items in the areas of superheroes, sci-fi, fantasy, horror, video games and music to open one store together.
The combined store name came from a Facebook suggestion.
Perrault and Walton had been looking for a location in the city to have a joint store.
Affordability was a big factor and landlord Peter Blackmon worked with them on the downtown spot.
Perrault said the downtown pedestrian traffic also played a part in their decision to locate downtown.
During the last few months, they have been painting, removing a wall and renovating the space to fit their needs.
The shop has sections of T-shirts, reproduction movie posters, buttons, records and music CDs, horror/sci-fi/anime, VHS movies and DVDs, video games and video game systems — such as Atari and Nintendo, non-sports cards, action figures from movies and television shows and toys from the 1980s and 1990s.
Some movie characters include from Corpse Bride, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Sin City and Candyman.
Other action figures and toys include newer and older Star Wars figures, Transformers and He-Man. Stuffed animals/characters include Rainbow Brite, Alf, Popples and Pound Puppies.
There is a $5 toy area, too, with different figures.
Non-sport cards include Star Trek, older Disney movies and Pixar characters, Castle, True Blood and Vampire Diaries.
Walton said he has non-sport card sets too, in addition to packs of cards.
Walton has been collecting cards, such as Charlie's Angels and Star Wars cards, since he was 10 years old.
"Non-sports cards have been around longer than sports cards," Walton said, adding that they started with stage and movie actors.
The shop also has Magic: The Gathering packs and some Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon single cards.
There also are special insert cards, such as autograph cards, including some from Star Trek.
In addition, some arcade games are inside the store including Super Pac Man, Blitz, Mortal Kombat 4, Star Wars Trilogy and Jurassic Park III, to play for free.
Perrault also makes some of the items they sell, such as bracelets made from old LPs and horror posters and light switch covers with movie scenes on them.
Eventually, Perrault and Walton would like to set up a lounge area and have card game tables.
Perrault said a lot of local youth have been helping with the shop to get it open as soon as possible for a place to hang out.
Vintage Villains, 103 N. Vermilion St., near the corner of Vermilion and North streets across from Temple Plaza, is open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Saturday.

Writing Program
Director — TRACY SANTA
The writing program offers Writing Intensive (WI), Writing in a Discipline (WD), and Writing Enhancement (WE) courses for students who wish to refine their writing practice across the curriculum. Writing Intensive courses are designed to attach special importance to revision and the writing process and have limited enrollment to allow time for individual conferences, small group sessions, and detailed criticism. Individual departments and programs identify selected offerings as Writing in a Discipline. These courses attach special importance to academic writing as it is practiced in a particular disciplinary context. Both WI and WD courses may meet major or all-college requirements as well. Writing Enhancement adjuncts meet as extended-format courses which may be taken concurrently with regular block courses. Writing Enhancement courses provide students with an opportunity to work more intensively on the writing they are doing in their regular course work in addition to working on more generic writing issues.
Writing Proficiency (WPR) is a graduation requirement of all CC students, beginning with those students entering as first-year students in the fall semester of 2010 and graduating in May 2014 or thereafter. Writing Proficiency can be fulfilled through successful submission of a FY Writing Portfolio at the conclusion of a student's first year (May for Fall enrollees/December for Winterstarts). Portfolios are read by a team of faculty. Those portfolios receiving two evaluations of excellent or competent work fulfill the Writing Proficiency requirement. Students submitting portfolios evaluated as needs work or students failing to submit a portfolio by the conclusion of their first year fulfill the Writing Proficiency requirement through coursework in one of several ways: successful completion of a WI course; successful completion of a WD course plus a WE course (GS 201, 255, or 260); successful completion of two WD courses.
The Writing Proficiency requirement cannot be fulfilled in a student's first-year simply by completing coursework. To fulfill the requirement by coursework, a student must have achieved sophomore status. Writing Intensive courses only fill the WPR if taken after a student's first year. If a student is filling the WPR with two WD courses, at least one of the courses must be completed after a student's first year. GS 201, 255, and 260 courses taken in a student's first year may count toward fulfillment of the requirement. Transfer students may appeal to the writing program director to fulfill the requirement based on prior coursework.

The elimination of the sales tax on liquor and wine was a welcome sight for shoppers Sunday.
"That is a good thing any time you can save a few pennies here and there it's always a good thing" said Michael Goodwin, Providence.
"I think it's a good thing. I am a regular wine user, hard alcohol not so much, but I think savings is a good thing for customers," said Brendan Britton, Providence.
The cut to the 7% tax is part of the 2013 budget. It is designed to help keep Rhode Island competitive with Massachusetts, which has no liquor tax.
"It allows us an opportunity to you know match Massachusetts," said Eno manager Scott Lefler.
State Rep. Jan Malik and owner of Malik Liquors in Warren supports the tax cut. He says Sunday customers were surprised and happy to see the savings.
"It's gonna help out, I hope bring people back to first shop Rhode Island also for people in Massachusetts to shop Rhode Island," said Malik.
The tax cut will only last until March of 2015. It does not include beer.

Person of interest in lawyer's slaying is arrested
Posted Mar 8, 2013 6:42 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
A person of interest being sought by authorities in the apparent slaying of a Colorado family law attorney has been arrested in Idaho.
Warren Dale Watson was arrested Friday in Caldwell on an unrelated prior warrant, KUSA reports.
The body of Claudia Miller, 66, was found in her law office on Tuesday night by a cleaning crew. Her 2012 Honda Accord was later determined to be missing from the parking lot of her office, according to Lakewood police. Although a cause of death has not been formally determined, police have been calling her slaying a murder and said there was trauma to her body.
The Denver Post also has a story.
Miller was "just fun," Caroline M. Sada, who heads the First Judicial District Bar Association, told the newspaper on Wednesday.
"She loved to tease. She loved to laugh," said Sada. "She was always joking around, but she was serious when she needed to be."

With their sculpted muscles bulging, they can't keep their eyes or their hands off of each other. From an off-the-dial, tail-gate three-way to three more hard core, super-hot, scenes all worthy of a barn-raising, Cowboys, Part 1 delivers.

BRADENTON, Fla. (AP) - Jose Tabata made strides toward regaining his starting right fielder's job, keying a five-run second inning Sunday with a two-run double and helping the Pittsburgh Pirates build a big lead before holding on for an 8-6 victory over the Houston Astros.
Tabata lost his starting job last season when he hit just .243 with three home runs in 103 games. He is competing with Travis Snider and Jerry Sands for a lineup spot this spring.
John Ely, acquired from the Los Angeles Dodgers in an offseason trade, started for Houston and was tagged for five runs - three earned - in 1 2-3 innings.
Brett Wallace hit a three-run double for Houston, which had won three straight. Pittsburgh ended a 6-game skid.

Austin Radiological Association is a quarter of the way toward virtualizing its server and desktop infrastructure, but the move has placed a strain on its networked storage and slowed application performance.
ARA, which provides diagnostic imaging services through 15 outpatient centers in central Texas, is trying out a new product from startup Zerto, which launched last year with an unusual approach to data protection. Instead of protecting data by replicating it offsite from storage arrays, it uses software to replicate the data within the virtual machines.
[ Keep up on the day's tech news headlines with InfoWorld's Today's Headlines: Wrap Up newsletter. ]
ARA's IT department has about 40 people managing almost 800TB of data. It has about 1,000 desktops for 800 employees along with 300 servers, about 25 percent of which are currently virtualized using VMware and Citrix XenServer.
ARA, which is part of a larger consortium of radiological imaging firms, had originally imagined itself moving to a private cloud, carving up its data center, selling services to its regional affiliates and becoming the "center of the universe." But that became complicated fast.
"We backed off that cloud marketing hype and decided to learn to crawl before we sprinted," said ARA CIO Todd Thomas. "We didn't see ourselves doing chargeback right away or auto provisioning of servers right away, because our processes weren't mature enough as an IT organization."
So ARA shifted its plan to virtualizing its data center, selecting Cisco's Unified Computing System (UCS) blade center as its server farm, and EMC and NetApp products for storage. But what Thomas didn't want to do is get locked into a particular vendor's data replication software.
"If I want to switch colocation providers, it's easier to migrate a virtual machine and not care about what the underlying storage platform is," Thomas said.
As with most companies, ARA's data replication scheme for business continuity and disaster recovery is based in its networked storage, which features both EMC Symmetrix DMX-4 950 and NetApp 3140 arrays. Replication in those arrays is performed at the block or file level, meaning data is either mirrored or copied to its offsite recovery facility 20 miles south of its primary data center in Austin. ARA uses both EMC's Symmetrix Remote Data Facility/Asynchronous (SRDF/A) and NetApp's MirrorView software for data replication.
But when it began virtualizing its server and desktop environment, the strain of additional virtual machines overwhelmed its storage arrays' I/O bandwidth.
The ARA project started as a XenApp installation in which applications were going to be streamed down to wise desktop terminals. "In that rollout, we ran into a number of hurdles that shifted our strategy to go more the VDI route than just the applications streaming route," Thomas said.
But an "unforeseen" explosion of virtual desktops created I/O performance problems. "We got about 70 percent of the way through the project and are now on hold," he said. Instead of 80 percent streaming applications and 20 percent VDI, ARA wound up implementing 80 percent virtual desktops and 20 percent streaming apps.
"The predominance of virtual desktops created a strain on our storage arrays we weren't anticipating," Thomas said. Not surprisingly, application performance began to suffer.
"We got emails from our customers saying, 'We can't work,'" said Jack Yudell, ARA's data center operations manager.
So Thomas and Yudell decided to move toward server-based data replication.
That's where Zerto came in. Zerto's Virtual Replication software performs asynchronous replication of data at the virtual machine disk (VMDK) level rather than at the storage volume level.

Why get involved?
Letter from Associate Provost of International Programs
In order to ensure that the students graduating from K-State are prepared to excel in their future lives and careers, the university must provide international learning opportunities through teaching, research, and service. International education provides students and faculty the opportunity to extend learning beyond the campus, to understand other cultures, and to make decisions on important issues that affect the increasingly interdependent world in which we all live.
The Friends of International Programs is an extremely valuable partner in our efforts to internationalize Kansas State University. By supporting international and study abroad students through scholarships, as well as hosting many events for these students, the Friends of International Programs serves an important role in providing international educational opportunities. The Friends host the Vernon Larson lecture series, providing a forum for K-State faculty and staff to share their international experiences and research with the campus and the community.

Wayne County Sheriff Dean Finch says crews have found the bodies of a missing Reynolds County couple.
The bodies of 54-year-old William Talley and 47-year-old Jordy Wagner were found around 2 a.m. Thursday not far from where the couple's Chevy Blazer was found three miles from their home on Wednesday.
Department of Corrections dogs were brought in from Farmington to locate the couple.
Authorities believe the couple died of exposure, but an autopsy is pending to officially confirm a cause of death. No foul play is suspected.
Talley and Wagner were last seen at a Piedmont bank just a few miles from their home in the Bluffview area of Reynolds County on Saturday, Feb. 1. According to the Reynolds County Sheriff Tom Volner, relatives started to worry when they went to check on them and only found their pets and no heat on in their home.
"We think they left the house, and maybe got stuck and tried to make it back and I believe the autopsy will show they froze to death but of course we are still looking into it," Wayne County Sheriff Dean Finch of Wayne County said.
The Wayne County Sheriff's Department worked with Reynolds County, DOC and the MSHP. Finch explained the Blazer was spotted from the air Wednesday afternoon by a Highway Patrol plane they had called in. A grid search of the area on the ground including all terrain vehicles and men on foot eventually discovered the bodies. The Blazer was found about 1.5 miles away from the trailer in the Reynolds County remote wooded area. The couple was about halfway in between as if they were trying to get home.
"They were huddled together," said Finch. "It's a sad day."
Canine teams were there, but did not locate them. Searchers on the ground located the couple. It all happened in Reynolds County close to the Wayne County line.
"It's so hard on the family, her sister is just distraught," said Cindy Eller, a close family friend who knew the couple well. "They were great people, it's surreal."
"They were great people," said nephew Eric Ousley. "They were loved so loved. They loved their family they loved their animals. He was a Vietnam Vet and just all around good, nice people and we will miss them so much. This is hard."
William also went by Pat. He was a veteran.

The Detroit Piston's head coaching search continues, as they have targeted the San Antonio Spurs top assistant coach Mike Budenholzer, reports Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports.
The Pistons announced on Friday that Phil Jackson would advise the organization in their coaching search. Detroit has been active in making steps move the franchise in a different direction, as Pistons president Joe Dumars already met with Budenholzern on Wednesday, reports Wojnarowski.
Budenholzer has been an assistant with Gregg Popovich for the past 16 season. During that span the Spurs have won four championships. The Spurs finished as the second seed in the Western Conference this season at 58-24 and have since swept the Los Angeles Lakers in the first round. They will face the Golden State Warriors in the Western Conference semifinals.
Wojarowski also indicates that Budenholzer has grown more open to hearing coaching offers after being contacted by the Warriors and Phoenix Suns in the past. Dunholzer is also likely candidate to take over as Spurs coach when Popovich retires from coaching.

A Homeless man claims to have discovered Britain's oldest cave paintings whilst looking for somewhere to sleep. Billy Mungo (above), 64, entered a cave in Somerset's Cheddar Gorge last thursday night, and lit a fire to stave off the cold.
To Billy's amazement, the firelight revealed dozens of paintings on the cave walls, which he believes may originate from the Palaeolithic era, some 17,000 years ago. This would make them as old as the famous Lascaux cave paintings in Southwest France, and would turn accepted ideas about the evolution of early Britons on their head.
Compared to the French cave paintings, which consist of beautifully drawn animals and intricate symbolic designs, the Somerset cave art appears somewhat crude, exclusively depicting male and female genitalia. And, unlike the French paintings, which employ a rich colour palette of natural pigments, the Somerset works are all done in thick black strokes, almost as if somebody had used an indelible marker pen.
The largest image depicts an erect penis and testicles, with stylised line emanating from the bottom, possibly indicating pubic hair. From the top of the penis a curved dotted line is drawn, believed to show semen or possibly urine. The other cave paintings show tits and hairy pussies.
Mr Mungo admits that he has no formal Palaeological training, but believes his discovery casts a whole new light on our understanding of stone age man. He told us: "These paintings indictae that a belief system was in place, in which great importance was put on the idea of fertility."
"They also suggest that ancient men communicated using a rudimentary language, and that their names were very similar to those we know today," he continued.
"The evidence for this is very strong as one of the cave dwellers has written the words 'Steve Dennis's cock smells' under one of the drawings," he added.
Experts have yet to verify the exact age of the paintings, but anyone who wishes to see them for themselves can turn up and get a guided tour from Mr Mungo in return for ten pence for a cup of tea.

A Design Repository as a Resource for StudentsThis presentation reports on the development of a design repository (DR) for use in a set of biomedical engineering design courses. Over the last five years, students have developed over forty projects, ranging from custom devices for the handicapped to patentpending medical devices with clinical application. The DR system captures function, form, and rationale of existing course designs so future engineers have access to the projects of their predecessors. Similar to traditional databases, the system stores data and drawings of products produced; however, in addition to this information, the DR captures the rationale behind each of these design products. The DR has two main components, the database and the user-interface. Web-enabled, it is currently used by students to search existing projects, and to search for similar functions in different projects.

George Zimmerman -- who was acquitted earlier this month on murder charges tied to Trayvon Martin's death -- was stopped this weekend for a traffic violation in North Texas, according to a report from the Forney, Texas, police department.
He was given a verbal warning, police said.
The incident happened shortly after noon Sunday, when an officer pulled over Zimmerman's 2008 gray Honda for what was described only as a traffic stop.
On July 13, a Florida jury found Zimmerman not guilty of second degree murder. His parents told ABC News earlier this month that their family has received an "enormous amount of death threats."
