Grimy meets shiny in Sleepy Kitty's music. The duo's chugging drums and crunchy guitars are sweetened by catchy melodies and vocal harmonies that summon memories of 1960s-era girl groups.
Take "Seventeen," which transmogrifies the Beatles' "I Saw Her Standing There" into a clanging drone that directly channels the Velvet Underground.

Have you wondered what other people like to read? Want to expand your reading to other genres? There is a new display in front of the circulation desk with the most checked out books at Stratford Library in April. In June we will display the most checked out books in May. Several of our customers have already chosen their books from this display and we are challenged to keep it supplied. We love the challenge. We also know you will find some good reads there - so check it out! Photograph: David Levene
Be sure to come to the library Thursday, May 6 to take part in Snapshot Day. Anytime you come will be fine. We want to take snapshots of lots of activities that happen in our library. The purpose is to show people in the state of Texas the value of libraries in people's lives. Come share with us your library "stories" along with your hopes and dreams for the future of libraries. How have libraries benefited you in the past and how do they help you today? Remember... anytime Thursday, May 6!
Next week at storytime, we will be creating an "egghead eggshell planter." With an eggshell, we will be creating a little character with grass for hair. We hope to give the little ones a chance to see how a little bit of soil, a little bit of air and water, and a few grass seeds, can bring something out of nothing. Hope you can make it!
Baby/Toddler Storytime: 10:30 am
We have 4 new magazine subscriptions available to check out! Kiki is a magazine for girls who love life, love to be creative and who are looking for good ideas.

Conlon's fight for justice 'changed course of history'
Gerry Conlon spent 15 years in a British prison for a crime he didn't commit and saw his father, who was also wrongly arrested for the same crime, die in prison.
He died this morning aged 60, after a long illness. His family paid tribute to him, saying he "helped them survive what they were not meant to survive."

Jered Sanders - Closed Caption
Artist: Jered Sanders
Producer: DatDudeTim
Album: While You Were Waiting EP
Avg Rating: 4.6 ( 39 total votes )
No, unfortunately Jered Sanders' latest effort has not been Closed Captioned for the hearing impaired. (Though, if anyone feels like typing the lyrics out, I'm sure your efforts would be much appreciated.) That said, those who are blessed with fully-functional auditory systems won't want to pass up listening to the Elementality Productions signee's new single and solo Booth debut. Here, DatDudeTim's sampled production gets heads nodding as Sanders flexes his lyrical muscles. After spitting two verses' worth of flames over the jazzy beat, the up-and-comer delivers a dazzling final 16 a cappella. Like what you're hearing? More dope instrumentals and intellectually-stimulating bars await on the artist's Gorgeous LP, scheduled for release at an as yet-undetermined date this summer.

U.S.-Japan Trade and the Auto Industry

Leading congressional Democratic trade experts called a news conference to unveil a new legislative proposal to deal with the bilateral trade deficit with the Japanese. The legislation is called the Trade Enhancement Act of 1992, and would provide for a plan to reduce the deficit, and if the targets are not met, sanctions would be imposed against Japanese automobile and parts makers. Japan currently accounts for the largest share of the American trade deficit. That growing imbalance over the past several years has caused lawmakers call for a "get tough" policy with Tokyo. In the news conference, Rep. Gephardt claimed Japan utilized profits from sales of cars in Japan, a closed market, to sell cars below cost in America to achieve a monopoly market. close

I read about this awhile ago in a book.
People who receive organ donations go through personality changes and characteristic similar to those of the donor.
In a study, a patient received a heart transplant from a man who was killed by gunshot to the face, and the organ recipient then reported to have dreams of seeing hot flashes of light directly on his face.
In another case, Claire Sylvia, a heart transplant recipient who received the organ from an 18-year-old male that died in a motorcycle accident, reported having a craving for beer and chicken nuggets after the surgery.
She also began to have reoccurring dreams about a man named 'Tim L.' Upon searching the obituaries, Sylvia found out her donor's name was Tim and that he loved all of the food that she craved
These cases may support the cell memory theory. But as someone who wants to study the human consciousness, I have this one question.
What does this say about the human mind? Is it only stored in the brain? Can our cells also have the capacity to store information such as memory and personality? Are they aware of what makes us, who we are? Are they conscious in that sense?
idk I sometimes finish sentences with a "~" bc a period seems too hard/almost angry and a blank is too blank

Wells Fargo continues to trim its mortgage operation, announcing Wednesday the layoffs of 763 employees.
None of the affected workers are in the Charlotte area, spokesman Josh Dunn said in an email.
The San Francisco-based bank did not provide a geographic breakdown of the cuts. At least some of the layoffs will be in St. Louis.
On Wednesday, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported that the bank laid off 126 consumer mortgage employees in that city.
The staff reductions come as the bank reports that higher interest rates are resulting in lower demand among homeowners for refinancings.
The percentage of mortgage applications stemming from refinancings has been falling for Wells since the fourth quarter. Refinancings comprised 54 percent of mortgage applications in the second quarter, down from 69 percent a year ago, the bank reported.
Last month, The Des Moines Register reported that Wells Fargo told 350 mortgage and retail lending employees that their positions are being eliminated.
Dunn said Wednesday that the bank is committed to retaining as many of the workers as it can and is working to identify other job opportunities within Wells Fargo.
Charlotte-based Bank of America is also cutting mortgage staff.
Bloomberg News said Wednesday that the second-largest U.S. lender told Pennsylvania regulators it will cut 209 jobs from a unit servicing troubled mortgages.
The firm is eliminating the positions by Sept. 30, according to a notice released Tuesday on the Pennsylvania Department of Labor's website.
Bank of America spokeswoman Jumana Bauwens said in an email that the bank alerted the employees in June.
"Previously, Bank of America announced intentions to reduce the size of our mortgage servicing operations in line with the successful reduction of our portfolio of delinquent mortgage customers," she said. "Compared to peak levels in 2011, today we have fewer than half the numbers of customers who need the specialized programs and support of this team. We will not sacrifice service to our customers in need of assistance.
"Bank of America has a strong track record for helping our employees identify opportunities both in and outside of the bank."
Bank of America's employee headcount fell an additional 2 percent in the second quarter, hitting just more than 257,000.
The quarter pushed the bank past the 30,000 total job cuts that executives targeted when they started a massive companywide cost-cutting program known as Project New BAC.

It was a rough winter - especially for those without a roof over their head. Now, People and Congregations Engaged in Ministry (PACEM) is releasing numbers and trends for its 10th season.
There are some good and bad numbers - but new money is on the way from the state to provide some help.
Since last year, the number of women at the shelter has gone down. There were also 25 fewer chronically homeless people this season. But the number of veterans, reports of mental health, and domestic violence problems went up.
PACEM says it's not sure if people are just more willing to report, or if the problem is actually growing. PACEM says overall, it was able to help a lot of people during this long winter.
"We try to stay open the 22 weeks of the year that are most cold and most prone to snow and I really think we made a difference in the community this year in that we sheltered a lot of people when it was really cold outside and the risk of freezing to death was at probably the greatest part," said Jesse Boeckermann of PACEM.
PACEM and other organizations will receive funding starting July 1. That funding will go toward programs like rapid re-housing.

Texas asks court to stay EPA greenhouse gas rules
HOUSTON (AP) - Texas has asked a federal court to block new U.S. Environmental Protection Agency greenhouse gas rules, arguing they threaten jobs and are based on questionable science.
The motions filed Thursday are based on a lawsuit the state filed in February challenging the EPA's finding that greenhouse gases are dangerous to people. Texas wants the court to block rules that would impose new emission limits on cars and possibly factories and refineries.
The court challenges are all part of a bitter battle between Texas and the EPA. Recently, the EPA has disapproved chunks of the Texas industrial permitting program, a move that left some of the nation's largest refineries in operating limbo.
Gov. Rick Perry has accused the federal agency of meddling in
state affairs.

Expert: Border and airport security
Dr. Elia Zureik, sociologist and member of Queen's Surveillance Project, can talk about how society and the relationships between societies will be affected by issues related to regulating the movement of people and the implications for relationships between nations in the wake of Sept. 11. He notes that there are currently about one hundred million people in the world who have immigrant or refugee status; are in search of temporary employment outside their home country; or have been forced by natural disasters to leave their homeland.

I did not get the memo where the Bird of Prey was made into some uber ship with hidden hull strengths.... yeah, we get universal BO's on the weakest ship in game that can move fast. Were a mosquito with flexible options... same as we were in Open Beta. The only change I can think of was the addition of actual gear in T1... and the nerfing of MES which has changed the T2 Fed uberness (think the biggest baddest ships in game that also have the same major strength of their weaker flying enemies).
There are a TON of options in this game.... do you go as a TANK build? Tank with DPS? Tank with Crowd Control? Damge with Crowd control? Crowd control with heals? I think there are too many FED pve players comming into pvp with the same skills they have just "liked" in pvp... The trick is, you have to experiment with skills, waste thru them to find the ones that match your playstyle. You also have to think about the greater good your character will play.... RULE OF THE NICHE! You have to also remain steady on your game plan... as you play your skills improve.... a poor skill today can become a strong skill tommorow as you put points into sensors, deflectors, emitters, cannons, beams, etc...
SO MANY OPTIONS!!!! so yes, skill comes into play more then anything else... only way to get skill is to practice. You will fail on the way.... There was no button hit that made klingons better... In fact, Klingon's are not better, just a lot of groupping is encouraged on our side. All the feds I chat with just tell me about the idiots trying to lead and the people just charging in not even thinking. Happens on both sides... get over the fact that you can't "eat klingons for breakfast" every match. I sometimes am on the top of scoreboards, and sometimes I don't even get a point....

If you want to succeed in the closeout business you need to become familiar with the following terminology that is frequently used in the wholesale industry.
Wholesale: The business of supplying merchandise to resellers, such as boutiques, flea market vendors, eBay sellers, and other types of resellers.
Off Price: Refers to merchandise, whether it is apparel, footwear, jewelry, or other items that are non-branded or have generic labels, and are sold at a discount to the regular wholesale price of similar items.
Closeouts: A closeout is a product line that a manufacturer or retailer wants to move out, and therefore it is being closed out. In other words the owner of the merchandise is selling the product at a price that is below the wholesale or retail rate in an attempt to clear it out.
Shelf Pulls: This is merchandise which is being taken off the shelves or racks by a retailer that has decided to no longer sell the item. For example a retailer might decide that the quality of the item does not match the rest of her inventory, or she quickly realizes that her customers are not interested in the item, and she would rather sell it out and recover some or all, of the money she spent purchasing it from her supplier.
Store Returns: This category refers to retail merchandise which was purchased at the store level and then returned to the retailer either because the customer changed his mind or the item was damaged, or became damaged. Since many national retailers such as Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Macy's, and JC Penney, appreciate the lifetime value of a customer, they will have very liberal return policies. This means that a customer can make a purchase of a brand name dress shirt and return it for any reason. From my experience in dealing with store return pallets I have seen on average about 50% salvageable merchandise which can be sold as is, 25% of merchandise which can be sold after being fixed, and 25% of merchandise that is beyond repairs. If you decide to purchase store return products you need to make sure that you will be able to make enough money on the sellable inventory to offset the unsellable items.
Irregulars: These are items such as clothing which can have minor defects and have been rejected by major retailers, or are being sold directly by the brands since they didn't pass muster under their high quality inspections. The most popular items in this category for resellers are T-Shirts, socks, and underwear by brands such as Fruit of the Loom and Hanes.
Overstock: This category results from overproduction by a factory. Often factories overproduce because it is just as cost effective for them to produce 1,000 elegant party dresses as it is to produce 950 dresses. The factory will then sell their excess goods to discounters and exporters. You can contact factories and clothing manufacturers directly and inquire as to the availability of surplus production.
Salvage Merchandise: This category consists of merchandise which has been damaged and is being sold to reclaim an insurance payout resulting from a flood, fire, or transportation accident such as a train derailment. If you consider buying this type of merchandise you need to be very careful in inspecting its condition.
Department store overstock: This is usually brand name clothing, shoes, handbags, and other general merchandise which the department store did not sell. Department stores need to constantly bring in new merchandise such women's office suits, social dresses, and designer handbags to keep their shoppers coming back. If an item is sits in their store too long it will lose that new look, and will discourage customers from coming back since they will keep seeing the same items again and again. To solve this dilemma the department stores will constantly run clearance sales and then sell their remaining inventory to liquidators and closeout dealers.

A Navy buddy of mine named Billy Gamble recently asked if I thought there would be a lockout that would affect the 2011 season. He couched the question in terms of his own outrage with paying $8 for a beer, and I think that's a fairly common and reasonable fan reaction:
I spend a lot of money on football, so what the hell is the problem? Why would there even be talk of a lockout? Isn't there enough money coming in right now for everybody to get a fair piece? I mean, come on, 8 freaking dollars for a beer?
The short answer is, no, I don't think there will be a lockout that causes any games not to be played. It's possible-to-likely, though, that a lockout occurs which delays the start of the new NFL year, and makes things which are normally orderly, like free agency and offseason workouts, a bit chaotic.
I decided that I'd talk extensively today about NFL economics, and move from that into a discussion about the real issues in this collective bargaining negotiation. As usual, my assumption is that my readers are smart enough to understand all of this, but I realize that there may be some detailed questions which you may have. I'll be glad to answer those in the comments.
First, let's talk about some accounting concepts, at a really basic level. This is obviously what I do for a living, and it can get very complicated, but, for now, I'm only going to touch on stuff which frankly everybody should understand, and which a shocking number of people misunderstand.
The first key term is revenue, which is the top line of any income statement. Revenue simply means gross income received for goods and services. The $8 for the beer, the $200 for the ticket, and the $1 billion that DirecTV pays each year for Sunday Ticket rights all end up as revenue. All current-term and future cash inflows related to business operations become revenue.

Happy Tuesday, friends! Step up to the buffet for a serving. This is going to be shorter than in some weeks, because I'm putting more effort than normal into the next edition of Fat Camp. That's going to be about NFL economics and how they affect the CBA negotiations, and as you can imagine that's not a topic that can be covered in any value-adding way without writing a lot of words, and doing a lot of research about it. I could have included it here, but I wanted to publish it under separate cover for a few reasons. Honestly, I'd already started working on it over the weekend, but I'm tabling it for the time being so I can bring you YGS as regularly scheduled. Let's get right to it. Ready…. BEGIN!
1. Sunday's games were both excellent in the end after having started off in lopsided fashion. I think what that tells us is that each of the four teams was worthy of being there. Here are some thoughts from the Packers-Bears game:
a. I'm such a smart analyst that I thought the Bears would be a 4-12 team this year, but they played much better than I'd expected them to. When I said that, after their lucky/undeserved win against Detroit in Week 1, their offensive line looked so atrocious that I couldn't imagine them having a good season. A lot of credit goes to offensive line coach Mike Tice for shuffling his group and putting them in the best position to be successful. A key was realizing that Chris Williams is much better at Left Guard than he is at Left Tackle - just like Oakland experienced with Robert Gallery. Yeah, you used a first-rounder on the guy - but if he can be solid in a new spot, and he's lousy in the one you drafted him for, you move him to where he's solid, and get the most you can out of the guy. It still makes me chuckle that when I was a newish rank-and-file poster at MHR in the spring of 2008, I was getting hit HARD for publicly preferring Ryan Clady over Chris Williams. I was the guy who didn't know what I was talking about. Everybody LOVED Chris Williams and Earl Bennett, and Denver was going to become Vanderbilt West, and the winning tradition of the Commodores would be transplanted into the Broncos. Or something.
Hello, friends, and welcome to the new news. I'm very pleased to be joining the outstanding team here at IAOFM, and I'm ready to do my part in making this the best football site on the internet. With the group of writers we have in place, I feel that that is an attainable goal. Thanks in advance for your support of my work.
Have you noticed how NFL Insider has become a job title in sports journalism? Adam Schefter is the NFL Insider for ESPN.com. Adam Schein is the Jets Insider for SNY. With the popularity of reality TV, it seems like everybody wants to be inside the thought processes, and backstories of every event. Even the normally mundane events, like a car ride from DIA to Dove Valley for a coaching interview, are getting shared with fans. In that spirit of transparency, and reader-friendliness, I granted an interview to an intrepid journalist, who wanted to know about my Decision to join IAOFM.
Happy Tuesday, friends, and welcome to Information From My Eyes. MHR people will recognize that title as something I used for sections in my old Shallow Thoughts & Nearsighted Observations posts. The title refers to a phone survey about sports blogging I participated in with a Penn State journalism student last year. The guy asked me where I get my information, meaning what websites. I guess in his mind, bloggers find information from "professional" writers, and repost it. I got a little annoyed with the poor kid, and told him my information came from my eyes.
I think Information From My Eyes is apropos of my whole Tuesday article though, particularly in the regular season, because this is going to revolve around games I watch on Monday nights. Normally, I come home and watch 5-6 recorded Sunday afternoon games, and then the Monday night game live. That's what I did tonight. Of course, as we get into the offseason, there will be less to watch, so I will probably go back to regular season game video for that analysis.
Happy Tuesday, friends, and welcome to the triumphant finale of Shallow Thoughts & Nearsighted Observations on MileHighReport.com. I'm obviously excited for my new venture, but I'm a little sad to have just typed that sentence. The feedback I've received has been very positive, and I particularly thank those who emailed me offline with encouragement on my new direction.
For today, I'm still very proud to be part of the staff of the best Broncos site in the world, and tomorrow, I'll be just as proud to be an alumnus of it, and a branch from the John Bena tree. (More branches are coming, trust me on that; quality like we have on this site breeds it.) Taking my MHR responsibility very seriously, and recognizing that some might not care a whit about my new site, I am going to hold off on the details of it for now, and include it as a postscript to this ST&NO, for those who are interested. Those who aren't can simply skip it, and not feel like I subjected them to undue pain and suffering. I think that's a fair deal, and I'll assume by your silence that you assent to its terms.

Happy Tuesday, friends, and welcome to Shallow Thoughts & Nearsighted Observations. I am writing this lead-in on Black Monday, and I'm still not in a very good mood, as you can imagine. I'm going to try to make the best of it, and drop a good column despite the bad feelings. We'll see, because I still haven't watched this infuriating game a second time yet. No guarantees. For now, let's get on with it. Ready..... BEGIN!!!!
Continue reading "Shallow Thoughts & Nearsighted Observations"
Happy Tuesday, friends, and welcome to another edition of Shallow Thoughts & Nearsighted Observations. Christmas is coming - and I, for one, am hoping for a much more joyous holiday season than I experienced last December. All I got for Christmas last year was the Broncos' historic collapse, and all I had to give was the one scenario that could possibly be worse than the season-ending Chargers game (it involved hypothetically cutting an apple, slipping, and stabbing myself in the groin WHILE watching that game).
I'm not much for moral victories, but today in Donny Deutschland, I will talk about why I feel better about Sunday's loss than I have about any Broncos loss in years. There's no time to waste, so let's not waste any time. Out of the echo chamber, and into the fire, y'all. Ready..... BEGIN!!!
Continue reading "Shallow Thoughts & Nearsighted Observations"
Happy Tuesday, friends, and welcome to another edition of ST&NO. After being sick last week, and running an abbreviated version on Wednesday, I am back in full effect this week. I feel kind of like Stringer Bell in season 2 of The Wire, when Avon Barksdale was locked up, and their supplier cut them off. Stringer said he needed to put out a smoker to hold the towers, and I feel like a smoker is similarly needed this week with ST&NO. After all, I can't really do what Stringer actually did, when he couldn't get his raw dope, and change the name. Nobody is going to read a column called Death Grip, you know? (Really, I don't know what kind of drug addict would buy dope called Death Grip, but that's neither here nor there.) Anyway, here comes the high test stuff, with the same name as always. So fill up your coffee, get comfortable, and let's get right to it. Ready.... BEGIN!!!
Continue reading "Shallow Thoughts & Nearsighted Observations"
Happy Wednesday, and welcome to a day-late, dollar-short version of ST&NO. First of all, big up TJ for working hard to bring in his outstanding The Dude Abides... Stats That Don't Lie in a day early. I am a bit healthier on Tuesday as I write this, and I am going to see what I can get cranked out in one day, with moderate sneezing, and a heavy Day 1 of close workload in that pesky day job. I didn't take notes, and I didn't remember to record the Broncos game, so I am without a lot of detail this week, and will need to speak more generally than usual. No time to waste, so let's not waste any time. Ready..... BEGIN!!!
Continue reading "Shallow Thoughts & Nearsighted Observations"
Happy Tuesday, friends. It's a short week, with another game on Thursday night, so there's no time to mope or feel sorry for ourselves. In their scheduling wisdom, the NFL took away our right to do so - and I, for one, am glad. The Giants can be beaten, with sound play, but we'll get to that eventually. For now we'll put this week to bed and move on quickly. Ready.... BEGIN!!!!

Guide to Reform of Higher Education: A European Perspective
AbstractAlthough there are exceptions, most European universities and institutions of higher education find it difficult to compete with the best universities in the Anglo-Saxon world. Despite the Bologna agreement and the ambitions of the Lisbon agenda, European universities are in need of fundamental reforms. We look at structural reforms of higher education and propose more effective use of public subsidies, more efficient modes of financing institutions of higher education, more diversity, competition and transparency, and larger private contributions through income-contingent student loans. In the process we discuss the nature of an institution of higher education, grade inflation, fair competition, private and social returns to education, income-contingent loans, student poverty and transparency. We sum up with seven recommendations for reform of higher education.

ATLANTA, GA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/15/13 -- Cloud Sherpas has acquired Navigis, a leading global provider of advisory and technology consulting services to companies implementing ServiceNow (NYSE: NOW); terms of the deal were not disclosed. The acquisition allows Cloud Sherpas, which has strong footholds in cloud advisory, messaging, collaboration and CRM, to expand its market and geographic footprints and capitalize on global interest among enterprise organizations in cloud ITSM.
Cloud Sherpas' customers -- now over 5,000 worldwide -- are transitioning to cloud solutions from on-premise applications. These companies recognize the cost and productivity benefits of cloud software and want more of it. Acquiring Navigis allows Cloud Sherpas to meet this need by offering current as well as prospective customers the leading cloud ITSM solution. The acquisition also furthers Cloud Sherpas' mission to provide best-of-breed cloud solutions to the enterprise as a leading Cloud Services Brokerage (CSB).
"Our number one job is listening to customers and providing them with the services they need to grow their businesses," said David Northington, president and CEO at Cloud Sherpas. "Many of our customers have expressed an interest in cloud ITSM software, and acquiring Navigis -- a strong operation that's generating good profit and has doubled in size year over year -- boosts our ability to support these companies. Between Google, Salesforce.com and ServiceNow, we're establishing a 'Sherpa stack' of the top cloud solutions."
Navigis has been a leader in IT Service Management since 1996. The company's certified ServiceNow consultants provide value-added implementations, custom enhancements, administrative support and training to help ServiceNow customers automate their IT operations. Navigis clients include a roster of Fortune 500 enterprise IT customers and other leading edge companies. Navigis founder and CEO Philip Sidebottom will become president of Cloud Sherpas' ServiceNow business unit with the acquisition.
"We're thrilled to be joining Cloud Sherpas," said Sidebottom. "The ITSM space and cloud in general are poised for massive growth. As part of the leading CSB, our customers will benefit greatly from Cloud Sherpas global scale and ability to aggregate multiple best-in-breed cloud applications, implement and integrate those applications, and customize them to meet the unique requirements of an industry or business."
"Navigis has long been a trusted partner for ServiceNow and has provided considerable value to customers," said David Schneider, senior vice president of worldwide sales and services, ServiceNow. "We look forward to continued success working with the new organization."
"In cloud computing, the need for intermediaries to aggregate, integrate or customize cloud services grows as the number of cloud services and the rate of consumer adoption grow," says Tiffani Bova, Research VP at Gartner in her November 2012 report, Service Provider Primer: Cloud Services Brokerage. "Cloud services brokerages (CSBs), will help organizations adopt and derive more value from multiple cloud services during the next five to 10 years."

We're in the position of:-
Loads to do, but theres a huge hole in the outside wall and a large airlock (asbestos tent) where the server room used to be...
So, today I decided to write my summer holiday todo list on a whiteboard in one of the ICT Suites. It covered the entire white board.
It doesn't help that they force me to have a summer holiday by locking up the school after this week until the penultimate week of the holidays.
Anyone else in a similar position?
(This probably should have been filed under FFS!)
We're in the position of:-
Loads to do, but theres a huge hole in the outside wall and a large airlock (asbestos tent) where the server room used to be...
I wouldnt put my to do list on a whiteboard some one might rub it of lol. Unless its an IWB
I typed my jobs list into wordpad, and then, prior to the end of term, emailed this to the other techies... just for a laugh.
There were 32 items on the list !
The comments that came back, were along the lines of "you'll never do that lot"... my response being, no, but it means I can choose what I do, and explains why I haven't done what they asked for.
The other full time tech, had a list of 7 items to do this summer. He's done half of them already, and about 3-4 of mine.
Just to make it obvious how much I do over summer, I also have started sending a weekly update on friday.. it takes about 30 min to type, but last week there was 27 items on this list (not matching up with the 32 items on the other jobs list).
Things are just ticking over for me. One of the part time techs has a bunch of stuff to do, but he's only working for the first two weeks of the Summer holidays. My work doesn't really 'start' until the 3rd week when I upgrade Moodle. The rest of the stuff, I have to wait for contractors to finish building offices/etc.
My work started in ernest on day 1 of the holiday, crowbars and all. Yes thats right crowbars were used
Crowbars...in the holidays! Surely the best time is when the kids are around?!Originally Posted by john
You would think so, but no this was for removing things from rooms ready to fill with PCs instead
Lots of imaging, printer installs relocation of offices and telephone extensions. Rejigging of our switch and comms rooms, Server updates, new av and spyware software etc. Co-ordinate expanding network suites and additions to the infrastructure.
I gave a a 10 page list of todo's to our head of "strategic of ict" and he just aggreed to the work. My point was to show him just how much we had to do in the summer hols and allow time for technicans holidays.
Welcome to the group!Originally Posted by dhustyn
I often give my head pieces of paper outlining why I can't do what I am supposed to do - usually I don't hear anything after that. I even handed him a list of ten things that I really must get done before next year. One of them was "panic" - I still didn't hear anything.
TODO: Make a todo list
I could have done with a crowbar. Had to settle for a large screwdriver. I have also been extensively using a jigsaw and large hammer this holiday as well while creating a little more room in my office :P .Originally Posted by john
You building yourself an office extension then chrisH
Our 'to-do' list is pretty big, 130 new PCs to setup and image, 100 new laptops to prepare, new projector installs on thursday, lots of new cabling going in, two big cabinets to re-wire and optimise as well as well overdue housekeeping on all the servers. Tomorrow thou we're knocking a wall in our office down to link the two offices we have at the moment making one large office for the 4 of us. Started on it today, and realised the wall is slightly better made than we thought. And before anone says it, yes we have had it checked to make sure we're OK kocking it down!
Hmm I feel that myself and Chris both belong to the same school of thought, in that the IT guys will be fine. I am not moaning its a nice change. In my case it was turn a room with fitted bookcases into an IT suite and move the contents of the new IT room into the old one (yes it was a room swap), but upon removal of said bookcases, in one piece I will add, i found no carpet, holes in walls, no skirting board, no paint and bare sockets.Originally Posted by ChrisH
So for me the evostick comes out at the end of the week to glue the new carpet down, the jigsaw in the next day or so to finish the joinery needed and the power sander tomorrow to sand the walls and woodwork ready for painting and sorting out, and as if by magic all the teachers will go wow nice work to the team we pay to do that work and not realise that the IT dept did it.
Well the IT dept. here has been through 3 hands in the last 3-4 years so this summers todo list basicly consists of making sure that we know where everything is and whats it called. I mean what is the point in a PC called 'adam' or 'Attendance' so thats about 150 re-names to do. All our servers need patching or moving to 2003 since some are still on 2K + the two new rooms which need coms cupboards and patching oh yes and they want Exchange set up..........

I'm thinking about my Grand-Uncle, Thedford Charles Staples, today. He made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.
I made this graphic to share on Facebook. The Native American symbols on the regiment coat of arms are more reflective of the Oklahoma home of the regiment rather than a reflection of Thedford's own ancestry; as far as I know he had NO Native American ancestry. I have not researched the history of the coat of arms, either. It's possible that this was not the coat of arms during Thedford's service since the regiment changed from infantry to cavalry sometime this century. Maybe I'll do a little more research and update the graphic in the future.
The enlistment date and KIA date are verified, official dates. Aside from those, I don't have specific information about Thedford's experiences; that is to say, he could have been sick, or otherwise un-participatory, during any of the events on the timeline. The dates are mostly garnered from the resources listed below for Thedford's entire regiment or division.
Salpeter, Norbert; Salter, Carl; and United States Army, "180th Infantry: a regiment of the 45th Infantry Division" (1945). World War Regimental Histories. Book 48.
Summary relating to Thedford:
By May of 1942, the regiment was at Fort Devens, Mass, where it experienced its first amphibious training, along with a rigorous conditioning program. The winter months of 1942 were spent at Pine Camp, New York, where the men underwent weather conditioning. The regiment then engaged in mountain training and amphibious operations at Camp Pickett, Va., from January, 1943 to May 25th, when it departed for Camp Patrick Henry, VA. On June 4, the regiment embarked, leaving the U.S. on June 8th, and arriving in the vicinity of Oran, Algeria, North Africa, on June 21, 1943.
From "Winterline, Italy | 15 November 43 – 15 January 44:" describing the actions of Thedford's regiment during the period in which he was killed:
On the 45th Division front the only important action was an assault by the 1st and 3d Battalions, 180th Infantry, on 30 and 31 December. Their objectives, the hills astride the Sant' Elia road from Mount Molino north to Mount Rotondo, were held by the 3d Battalion, 134th Grenadiers, and the 2d Battalion, 100th Mountain Regiment. At 0615, 30 December, seven battalions of artillery put down a fifteen-minute concentration on Mount Molino and the town of Acquafondata. Then the artillery fire was shifted closer to the enemy front lines, and at 0630 the assault companies of the 180th Infantry jumped off.
As the men moved forward, they fired heavily, but the enemy remained quiet; for a while all went well. On the north of the road Company K was on Mount Raimo by 0815; at the same time Company L gained Mount Rotondo. To the south Company B, moving through smoke and early morning fog, got on the first knob of Mount Molino's northeastern slope; Company C on its left reached the east nose of Hill 960 by 0900. Tanks from Company A, 755th Tank Battalion, moved up an engineer-cleared path through Casale and supported the attack. About 0920 the tanks retired for more ammunition, and artillery fire was lifted from Mount Molino in the belief that our troops were progressing satisfactorily.
Everywhere along this front, however, the enemy had only allowed the 180th Infantry to advance to within the most effective range of his heavy weapons. His artillery then opened up in force; machine guns laid down interlacing bands of fire; mortars delivered such effective counterbattery that the 3d Battalion mortars could fire only two rounds during the whole day. Under the additional pressure of enemy counterattacks, all the assault units were forced to withdraw to their initial positions except for Company L, which continued to hold Mount Rotondo.
On 31 December rain began and later turned to snow. During the afternoon the 1st Battalion made another unsuccessful try at Mount Molino. By dark the attack of the 180th Infantry was over, and our troops had gained only one hill, Mount Rotondo. Both battalions were utterly exhausted by the most grueling fight they had yet experienced; the rifle companies were left with an average of sixty-six men apiece. To cap their defeat, a blizzard struck on New Year's Eve, sending snow-edged winds over the mountains and down into the men's fox holes. All through the first day of 1944 the officers of the 1st Battalion kept their troops busy making limited patrols, chopping wood, or digging deeper fox holes to keep from freezing. The men, piling on all the clothes they had, crowded into the few available bunkers or huddled about fires to await better weather before resuming the offensive.

My own preference would be for living in Belgium - if some Belgian employer were to offer me a job, Australia wouldn't see me for dust - but my second choice would undoubtedly be France, which I also had the privilege of revisiting recently. Every second tourist seems to complain about Paris, but even Paris's busiest and noisiest sections (such as the area around the Gare du Nord) seemed like heaven after London's horrors. And as for Toulouse ... if only I could've stayed longer there than just one weekend.

I am sure every country has positives and negatives. I wonder about a France that a few years ago during a horrible heat wave left many of its older people die in Paris because their children were on vacation. A nation whose true history is still not being told in schools about the savagery of its revolution and its failure to apologize for the genocide of the Vendee. Many French wear the rose colored glasses as many Americans do. I have the feeling that if you are wealthy MANY countries become the best place to live!

I think most of what we think about France is myth. There are fat French women and the poor there dont' seem to happy about their situation. The teenaged North African population burn cars on a regular basis and openly hate Jews. It's not Sabrina or Gigi anymore.

Australia, particularly New South Wales where Sydney is located, is quite an agreeable place to live, weather wise, economy wise, and the people are friendly and sociable.

The primary advantage of recording using a software piano is that you're using MIDI to trigger it, and MIDI gives you options. From fixing a wrong note to quantizing an entire piano part, recording a MIDI track of your sampled piano allows you to go in after the fact and tweak elements of your performance. This helps avoid tedious punching or multiple takes.
For example, if you've recorded a piano part and (as is often the case these days) you're playing to a drum loop, even subtle tempo fluctuations become glaringly obvious. By quantizing the piano part (I prefer an 1/8-note quantize in most instances), you can lock it to the loop's groove of the loop in a way that would be almost impossible otherwise.
However, before I quantize, I'll copy the original MIDI track, label it, and bury it in a playlist so that if something goes horribly wrong in the quantize, I'll still have the original. Also, there are often places in a piano part that shouldn't be quantized, like grace notes or little flams. In those cases, I'll copy the needed section from the original track, and paste it into the quantized track.
MIDI also gives you the luxury of auditioning alternate sounds. Let's say that as you listen back to a mix you decide that a honky-tonk piano would sound better: Just go back to your software piano, and find the right sound. Or, even more dramatically, you can experiment with entirely different instrument sounds triggered by the MIDI information from the piano part.
Finally, although there are programs that can change the pitch and time of digital audio, key and tempo changes in MIDI are more precise and don't produce distracting audio artifacts—no matter how dramatic the difference between the new key or tempo and the original.
Let's start with the basics of recording your piano, as you need to capture not only audio but also MIDI information (Figure 1). Let's begin with the MIDI track. In some recording software, the MIDI track also acts as a playback track so you can actually assign the software piano plug-in directly to the MIDI track itself. In others, you'll need a stand-alone MIDI track and an auxiliary track to which you'll assign your software piano plug-in. You'll also need an audio (usually stereo) track to record the actual audio—we'll see why this is important in a bit.
As setting up a session to record a software piano involves several steps, consider creating a software piano recording template that's ready to copy into a new session. You can then avoid having to create these tracks every time you want to make a piano recording.
I highly recommend bouncing your MIDI-triggered sampled piano to a digital audio track when you're satisfied with the part (Figure 2). One reason is that software pianos can be a real drain on your system. By printing the audio and de-activating the piano plug-in, you'll end up with more available processing power for other plug-ins in your mix.
Another reason is that if your software piano company goes under, then the next time there are updates to the version of your recording software or your computer's OS, you'll be in trouble if your sampled piano software is no longer compatible. If you go back to an old session and find that the plug-in no longer works, you'll be very glad you printed the audio. Recording your MIDI piano's audio is your insurance policy against software-related headaches.
These are my comments.

GAO: HRA Healthcare Spending Less than Other Health Plans
Enrollees in a health reimbursement arrangement—a consumer-directed health plan that combines a high-deductible health plan with a tax advantaged account—were found in both public and private plans to spend less on healthcare annually than those enrolled in other types of health plans, according to the Government Accountability Office.
One of the reasons may be that enrollees in HRAs tended to be healthier—and therefore kept costs down, according to a GAO report. This pattern was evident even before enrollees signed up for the HRA, GAO says.
For instance, the average annual spending per enrollee for the public employer's HRA group was $1,505 lower than a preferred provider organization (PPO) group for the two-year period prior to switching. Likewise, the private employer's HRA group spent $566 less per enrollee for the two-year period prior to switching to the PPO group.
At the same time, in 21 GAO-reviewed studies, 18 studies found they were healthier than traditional plan enrollees—based on utilization of healthcare services, self-reported health status, or the prevalence of certain diseases or disease indicators.
Overall, spending for private employer enrollees in HRAs generally increased by a smaller amount or just decreased compared with those in traditional plans that GAO reviewed.
With public employer, from the two-year period before switching (2001 to 2002) to the five-year period after switching (2003 to 2007), average annual spending for the HRA group increased by $478 per enrollee. At the same time, it increased by $879 for the PPO group.

"Glee" to Finish Season 5 in NYC
Little old Lima, Ohio's fifteen minutes of fame are nearly up as "Glee" will be set in New York City for the rest of it's fifth season.
According to Fox Entertainment chairman Kevin Reilly, "Some are going to be graduating and moving; creatively, it would be ridiculous that everybody moves to New York. There will be some that will graduate and move on and they'll arc back in when we do special episodes. They'll always be a part of it. The way it's going to dovetail next season, we'll see some familiar faces coming around in some capacity. But for this season, there will be a graduation, several of the cast members will move on and a few others will go to New York."
For fans afraid that Mr. Schuester's foil will be left behind, Reilly assured, "as long as there's a show, There's Jane [Lynch]."
As the season continues its move to the end of the road, fans can catch all the action on Tuesdays at 8:00pm starting February 25th on Fox.

Pupils celebrate 100 per cent pass in drama exams
Updated 3:05pm Friday 9th May 2014 in News
BRAINY pupils at Dormer House School in Moreton are celebrating after passing their recent Lamda exams for speech and drama.
The youngsters had faced an anxious wait ahead of their results but soon found they had nothing to worry about after achieving a 100 per cent pass rate at either merit or distinction level.
Drama teacher Emily Scates said: "The children have worked so hard on their pieces, developing the skills and giving them the confidence to impress the examiner.
"They really deserve this success and recognition. In July we will be performing A Midsummer Night's Dream for parents and friends – which will be the next big challenge for our older children."
The school is holding an Open Doors morning on Friday, May 16. For details call 01608 650 758.

That sucks. It happened to me this summer and i finally ended up buying a slim(with a three year best buy warranty)
4:57 am
Sorry to hear you got the dreaded YLOD tosh…………sadly I do not feel for you. I have a launch "fatty" PS3 that still runs as good as the day i took it out of the box. My wife now uses it to play Rock band 3, lego games and various other games as well as netflix in our bedroom while I use the slim in the living room.
Not to say you didnt take excellent care of it (you seem like a guy who would take immaculate care of his toys like i do) but it happenes. I reccomend gophermods.com to have it repaired, they have a reball service with lead solder. It has been reported that the newer lead free solder and subpar thermal paste lead to the YLOD. I have heard nothing but rave reviews about them, and theyre cheap as well.
Good luck brother, i feel sorry for you.
7:09 am
I took very good care of my PS3 as I do with all my electronics. I made sure it was free of dust always and do a vacuum to the in/out port gently to remove excess dust. But hey stuff happens…
Going to send it to GopherMods to repair it, sell it and maybe move up to a Slim. Haven't fully decided yet other than getting mine repaired. If I do go slim, then I'd probably get this accessory so I can double my USB Ports. I'll let you know how it goes..
