SC Electronic Building Access
The College of Engineering access control system is composed of computer-controlled electronic locks that are operated by an access card.
If you have a Hawk ID and an affiliation (student, staff, faculty) with the College of Engineering, your Iowa One® Card is your Seamans Center (SC) access card.
If you are not affiliated with the College of Engineering and need to use SC resources, an Engineering faculty or staff member must authorize your access. After that sponsor has notified ECS, come to the ECS office, 1256 SC, with your Iowa One card, if you have one, or government ID, such as a driver's license. If you have a UI Health Care Badge, bring it so that SC access can be added to the card.
If you need access to doors that are not included by default, go to department that manages the space to get authorization.
If you have problems with your access card, come to the ECS office, 1256 SC.
The default doors are the perimeter doors that have access control, and the student labs and study spaces. In addition faculty and staff have access to conference rooms in SC.

Hi All
We already know that MIDP 1.0 does not support control of the serial port and MIDP 2.0 does not support it as a standard feature.
Then after all, is there any nokia phone model do support serial communication via JAVA
Or we have to go for Symbian native program to have the feature?

This is a picture of my beautiful girl taken in sunny San Diego. Since we're both full-time entrepreneurs and 2014 is here, I wanted to give you 7 ways to fire your Boss-Hole. Ya know, so you can kick off your year strong. But, you may not actually have a boss you hate. That's ok, because these ideas will still work.
It's just that most people head to work hating what they do and never get to do what they really love. Sound good? Let's jump into it.
WAY 1: Believe you do what you love
What is your soul really calling you to do? You can monetize anything. This is the year to learn new skills, or surround yourself with those who are already doing what you love.
WAY 2: Believe you have courage
Don't stay stuck in a job you hate because of fear. You're infinite and a spiritual being. This could be the best year for you to step into the unknown.
WAY 3: Believe you are worth it
Get into action mode. Don't be afraid to make bold moves.
WAY 4: Believe your past does not define you
Break the routine. Monday through Friday is not for you. Whatever excuses you've come up with in the past, now is the time to breakthrough those fears.
WAY 5: Believe fear is a liar
What if you step out and everything falls apart? Big deal, you adjust and move on. Don't let fear keep you in a job you hate sucking your soul away.
WAY 6: Believe you're bigger
Love your boss-hole, because the only way you'll fire them is to outgrown them. You have to outgrow your current circumstances.
WAY 7: Believe in your new vision
You have a new vision for your life in 2014. Go boldly after it young buck.
Love & Gratitude,
PS: I would love to hear some of your 2014 goals. Which one are you in love with the most?

December 1, 2006
Albany- The State Ethics Commission has cleared Dougherty D.A. Ken Hodges of one of two campaign ethics complaints filed against him. One of the complaints filed by Citizen watchdog George Anderson of Rome alleged Hodges used campaign contributions for personal use.
While that complaint was dismissed, the state ethics commission tabled a second complaint alleging Hodges inappropriately handled a $14,000 loan to his campaign.
Hodges admits that when his campaign was low on money, he made a personal loan to the campaign and then paid himself back the $14,000, but he thinks the complaint will eventually be dismissed.
"The second one stems from the way that it was accounted for so I think once the staff looks at it as well it will be dismissed. I don't have anything to hide, they're welcome to meet with me, I'll go see them, I'll show them everything that we have done," Ken Hodges, District Attorney.
Hodges said his campaign finance chairman has met with the commission several times to clear up the misunderstanding.

Profootballfocus.com does a lot of stats-related articles that provide a broad perspective of Jaguars players, both good and bad. Some I agree with (e.g., D. Smith, MJD), some I don't. (Rackley, Alualu). But they always back them up with a narrative supported by reviews of ...
oops, wait. This article is from profootballweekly.com.
Regardless, Arthur Arkush pens this interesting article: http://www.profootballweekly.com/2012/08/14/jaguars-taking-right-stance-on-mojo
Spoiler alert: It doesn't mention Los Angeles.
However, it does mention Blaine Gabbert's horrible rookie season, MJD's contract dispute, a first round #5 pick who got a DUI, and a third-round ("Give me some punting X O!") pick. Sounds like typical Jags-bashing. Read the link and be surprised.

Algorithms for Scalable Synchronization on Shared-Memory Multiprocessors (1991)

Years of Citing Articles
Busy-wait techniques are heavily used for mutual exclusion and barrier synchronization in shared-memory parallel programs. Unfortunately, typical implementations of busy-waiting tend to produce large amounts of memory and interconnect contention, introducing performance bottlenecks that become markedly more pronounced as applications scale. We argue that this problem is not fundamental, and that one can in fact construct busy-wait synchronization algorithms that induce no memory or interconnect contention. The key to these algorithms is for every processor to spin on separate locally-accessible ag variables, and for some other processor to terminate the spin with a single remote write operation at an appropriate time. Flag variables may be locally-accessible as a result of coherent caching, or by virtue of allocation in the local portion of physically distributed shared memory. We present a new scalable algorithm for spin locks that generates O(1) remote references per lock acquisition, independent of the number of processors attempting to acquire the lock. Our algorithm provides reasonable latency in the absence of contention, requires only a constant amount of space per lock, and requires no hardware support other than

The port of Moerdijk and its surrounding businesses can be described as a multi-purpose port.
In the port, among other things, the transshipment of general cargo, containers, bulk (including glass, timber, construction materials, sand and gravels), neo-bulk products, steel, construction and demolition timber waste, etc.
The port area is well equipped to carry out all these activities quickly and efficiently. To give you an idea of the capacity:
Rapid transit is possible due to the unique combination of hinterland connections, via road, rail or inland navigation. The Moerdijk port is free of congestion, waiting time and strikes.

Relatively new technology most commonly found in gaming systems such as the XBOX Kinect is making its way to rehabilitation centers nationwide.
Interacting with a virtual environment, patients at ManorCare in Dubuque can now combine therapy with brain-stimulating fun.
The system is called OmniVR, for Virtual Rehabilitation, and while it doesn't replace traditional therapy, it does add a new flair.
Janet Timmerman is a patient at ManorCare in Dubuque. On Wednesday, she used the OmniVR as part of her post-hip surgery rehabilitation.
"You have to watch what's on the screen and have you to learn to use your joints and your muscles and your stance and your balance when you're moving, and it's really good," she said.
Perched above OmniVR's large screen, a special camera sensed Timmerman's movements during a therapeutic game, and a character on the screen moved according to her motions.
"It's fun when you're doing it," Timmerman said. "Some of it is really catchy. You really got to keep your eyes moving."
Becky Schulting is a physical therapy assistant at ManorCare.
"It's almost like we're playing a game but we're still exercising," Schulting said of using OmniVR with patients.
She said the system has exercises to aid in physical therapy, occupational therapy and even speech therapy, but it's not replacement for classic exercises.
"We'll do all the traditional exercises for the specific, you know, hips or knees or a stroke recovery, something like that," she explained. "This is just something we can do to have them do more therapy without them actually realize that they're doing therapy."
ManorCare in Dubuque has had the system since late 2012 and uses it for patient therapy on a daily basis.
"They don't have to be able to maneuver a joystick, they don't have to be able to do anything with the keyboard," Schulting said. "Anything with the computer, we take care of doing all that."
The machine is able to produce instant statistics after a patient plays an interactive game. Those can help inform a primary care provider as the patient continues the rehabilitation process.
The OmniVR is specially designed for aging adult. However, like video game systems for younger people, the OmniVR allows the user to adjust difficulty level, so it can accommodate patients wherever they are in the rehabilitation process. The system can aid in the rehab of everything from falls and strokes to arthritis and wheelchair mobility.
OmniVR, created in 2010, is in facilities throughout the nation.

Item: Decision-Making on Variable Risk Terrain
Title: Decision-Making on Variable Risk Terrain
Proceedings: Proceedings of the 1996 International Snow Science Workshop, Banff, Canada
- Dick Penniman [ Snowbridge Associates, P.O. Box 34004, Truckee, California ]
- Rene Boisselle [ R.B. Engineering, 13070, 58e Avenue, Saint-Georges, Beauce Quebec G5Y 5B9 ]
Date: 1996
Abstract: The likelihood of severe injury or death increases when avalanche victims encounter strong destructive forces within moving debris, and/or they impact with injurious or fatal terrain features such as trees, cliffs, and deep gullies along the avalanche path. This paper proposes a scale for determining the level of potential risk of severe injury or death as these factors vary from one avalanche path to another. The intent of this risk scale is to provide a decision- making tool to help both recreational and professional backcountry travelers determine the need to minimize site specific uncertainty about snow stability when contemplating travel onto avalanche terrain.
Language of Article: English
Presenters: Unknown
Keywords: backcountry, burial, force, obstacle, risk

More Daniellos, Please
It looks like Syracuse is going to be picking up Mike Daniello, a transfer from Johns Hopkins. Daniello has the traits of a natural attack, but took runs with Hopkins' midfield while under the rule of Dave Pietramala's iron fist. Hopefully Daniello's presence will answer some of the offensive questions Syracuse is facing entering 2013.

The Press newsroom has never made a habit of re-publishing press releases whole, either in the pages of our newspaper or online. There are obvious reasons for this. The first being that PR spin is often deceptive and, at the very least, can be counted on to give a one-sided view of an issue. The second reason is spin doctors have a tendency to be boring, producing copy crafted to earn the approval of their bosses (and keep their paychecks coming) rather than enlighten the public. And in Alaska, there seem to be enough media outlets actively re-publishing PR spin that readers should have no trouble at all keeping track of the corporations, citizens' groups and political parties that seek to get their message out.
That said, this post is meant to give voice to some spin offered by the Anchorage Assembly's Citizen Task Force on the Public Hearing Process. We believe it's an important announcement, and you'll find links to two documents from the task force below. The task force (which could've used a spin doctor when it adopted its unfortunately long name) was formed in the wake of controversial Assembly meetings that were swamped in February and March when hundreds of citizens showed up to criticize Mayor Dan Sullivan's new labor law. To get the labor law through, the Assembly's conservative bloc voted to cut off public testimony. That action appears to be a violation of Anchorage's city charter, which guarantees the right of each citizen to be heard prior to the Assembly passing "any ordinance" except those adopted in an emergency. The Assembly was paralyzed, however, by the huge turnout organized by activists in support of city workers.
This week the task force announced some recommendations in a press release. The recommendations are not yet final, and won't be forwarded to the Assembly until the citizens of Anchorage get one more chance to review them. The task force is not recommending any change to the city charter, a predictable stance that avoids a drawn-out election campaign that may further divide the city's voters and political busy bodies. If the press release is any indication, the task force wants the Assembly to keep its door open.
"The recommendations of the group are based on the principle that public involvement enhances the development of public policy in Anchorage," Jane Angvik, the task force chairwoman said in the written statement. "When citizens share information, their insights and values with the Assembly, proposed laws are strengthened."
The task force wants to hear from the people of Anchorage, not just those connected to political movements, corporate interests or various politicized social movements caught up in the policies of the city. They have a meeting scheduled to take place in the Assembly chamber at the Z.J. Loussac Library Tuesday, October 1, beginning at 6 p.m. It's a public hearing about policies and public hearings. We know it's deep in the thickets of political roughage, but it's also important. A representative democracy cannot be representative if the public doesn't trust and know that elected officials listen to the concerns of the people.
Below you will find links to two documents. One is the task force press release and meeting announcement. The other is more important. It's the draft of task force recommendations to the Assembly on public hearing policies. That's the document the task force wants you to review before they can complete their work. It represents a chance for the people of Anchorage to tweak their democracy just a bit, and ensure the idealistic principles in the city charter remain in play during future controversies. The alternative—and the Assembly will always have the power to dump the task force recommendations in a waste bin—is a representative democracy in which elected can changes the rules arbitrarily, and one where their responsibility to listen is either avoided or actively ignored just when its most needed.

RunDisney Princess Half Marathon Recap

It looks like such a blast. I am sure that you really can't go into these races with a plan, as it sounds like it was insanely crazy and fun! I love all of your costumes, too:)
It also took me a second to realize why all of your races down south start so EARLY - duh! The heat:)

- Brad Minus said...
It looks like you had an amazing time. I personally love the runDisney races. I ran the Goofy last year and stopped for as many characters as I could as well, but I limited it to the opportunities with only a couple of athletes in line, so I was still able to finish the Half and Full in a decent time. Of course, while the Disney Distance Weekend isn't targeted at women which probably makes a difference. All of your pictures are awesome. Great Post!

I don't think starting in corral A is good advice. That space should be saved for elite runners. That's the whole point of it. The way you felt around the Walkers at the end is how you'd stay someone else's that might be for an important qualifying time.
Your photos are great and anyone who goes that distance in full costume gets extra kudos! I could not imagine running just one mile in a Rapunzel braid!

Nice recap. I ran Tinkerbell last year, but this sounds much bigger and has longer lines! I didn't stop for pictures at Tinkerbell because there were lines for pics. Someday I wouldn't mind doing a full picture tour of the race.
Running an hour and a half longer than a normal 1/2...yup, that would be tough. I paced a friend in her first 1/2 and she was much slower than my normal pace. Toward the end, I actually ran backwards up a hill to give my muscles a break.
Nice race report!

I always love your race recaps...they're the best!!! I've done the Princess twice and never stopped for pictures. One of these days I will. I'm planning on being there next year but I plan on killing my last time so there won't be any picture taking for me.
So glad you had a great time with great friends!!!!

I've run the Princess Half twice and both times I took the "just for fun" approach with girlfriends and stopped to take photos along the way. You're right that it's easier to go in with a plan, we only stopped at characters we really wanted photos with and opted out of any character opportunities that had crazy lines. The second half of the race is always filled with less character opportunities and you start to get the "I just want to finish" mindset. Stopping and starting while running is hard! Even though the Princess Halfs are both my slowest times (2:30ish and 2:45ish) they were also my most painful afterwards. I have total respect for anyone that walks a half marathon, being on your feet that long is much more painful than running the race.

LOVE it all! Love all the pictures you took, love how much fun you have and LOVE that we were actually able to meet!!! I agree, lines were the theme of the weekend! It was totally worth it though. I'm glad you had fun, it really is the best race to just enjoy yourself. Oh and yes about running too slow. I ran with my girlfriend for the whole race last year about 2 minutes per mile slower than my average pace and it hurt WAY worse. You're not along in thinking that :)

I read someone's post from the marathon who stopped for every picture and still finished faster than I did my half. ugh. I stopped for like 4 pictures total, never standing in line for any, and it took me 3 hours to finish. I think you need to be fast overall to be able to enjoy photo stops. I'd be swept if I did all of them!

AHHH! So so soooo amazing! Looks like an absolute blast and I love all your fun costumes you ran in!! I am such a Disney nerd and MUST run this marathon at some point in my lifetime :)

Oh my goodness! How much fun was this? You girls looked adorable and so glad that you took it all in with LOTS of pictures. I think if you went for just the "running" part you would have kicked yourself. This is one for the books!

Great recap and great tips! I honestly don't see the point in paying all that money for a Disney race and NOT stopping for photos. Why even run it then? The characters are what make the whole experience. Of course, the race course and all all the stations are great too, but it's the magic of Disney that makes the race!
It's such a nice change to take a break from all the PR's to just run a race for fun. Good for you for having fun with it! I love the photos! Your costumes were fabulous!

YAY for the fun races!!! I can't imagine being out there for over 3 hours though. I'd have been cranky by the time I finished haha. Are you hurting more now than on races you push for speed?
You know how I feel about going slower. I feel bad for my boyfriend who used to stick it out with me at snail paces when I first started running. He must have been hurting terribly !

It looks like you guys had tons of fun! I love all the pictures you took. But I completely understand where you are coming from when you say it's harder to walk and start and stop and go someone else's pace, that is so hard on your body! It's nice to have those experiences, it makes you appreciate where you are in your running shape but it's still very hard!

You all look adorable! Love the self pic on the course. That isn't easy to do! When I do a Disney race, the time is a non-issue. The last two Tinks I ran with a friend who insisted on stopping with every single character. It was a blast, but we really had to haul it to clear the first cut. Glad you had a good time!

I really enjoyed your recap, and awesome job on finishing! I participated in the Princess Half for the second time this year, and I feel your pain with the crowds.

Ahhhh! SUCH a fun recap, Meghan!! LOVED reading about this. I would think that it would be both a NICE mental break... and then kind of a frustrating mental block "having" to stop for photos. But I love photos SO much that I'd be so giddy for most of them. WHAT fabulous photos!!
Did you mention where you got your top? Or did you make it? The sleeves are fantastic! And your Rapunzel friend-- did she RUN with the long braid behind her??
Fun fun fun!!

This was my first runDisney race and my first Half Marathon and I loved it! I dressed up as Minnie Mouse but I got so many great ideas for another costume down the line. I think this was the perfect race to start out on for me. I need things that are fun and runDisney definitely is. I loved that you carried an apple with you. I wish I would've taken more photos but maybe next year.

Congratulations! It's so funny -- our recaps read almost exactly the same! It was my first half, but I, too, had decided to stop for as many pictures as possible and just have fun. Even though I started in A, I also ended up amongst the last corrals, and had to get creative in the second half of the race when it came to being able to weave around the slower runners and walkers. I finished well over an hour later than I should have, but I wouldn't have done this race any other way -- you can sign up for any half and run for time, but if you're going to runDisney, I feel like you should have fun and enjoy the course! Your pictures are awesome! :-D

It is the idea that true restorative justice can only happen, when we are willing to commit to:
- Relocation: To continually go in to a community, do a project, and then leave only re-enforces one idea, they are not us, and we are not them. As long as this exists, true development cannot happen. The truth is, far more than the poor and broken need our money and simple projects, they need us—people. People with skills who will work with them and teach them how to become contributing members of society. We need people like you, who are willing to give up their posh, safe, secure, suburban lifestyles to relocation and close the us-them divide in order to create diverse community working together for the greater good.
- Reconciliation: This includes coaching; life-on-life mentorship; true relationships; housing that will help undergird the families and move them from poverty to productivity; and option creation, because poverty is much more than the lack of money, it is the lack of options. Simply moving to a new location won't help, it will open the doors, but we must also move into each other's lives.
- Redistribution: This is not about hand-outs. This is not about creating dependency. This is about creating community, It is about using what we have to create a path to a better community. In short, and we'll quote John Perkins, the purpose of redistribution is help create an environment in which today's receivers become tomorrow's givers.

A stolen vehicle was recovered on Wednesday after an LPD officer spotted it while driving his personal vehicle.
Police say Officer Matt Boggs recognized the 2011 black Ford F250 as stolen and began covertly following it while he contacted dispatch.
Boggs was able to follow the vehicle to a vacant lot at 15th & Ave. L and watch the passengers until marked units arrived.
Two suspects fled on foot when they saw the marked patrol unit. The driver, Adam Alonzo Jr., 30, was taken into custody after a short foot chase. Police are still searching for the other person.
Police say they found burglary tools, along with suspected stolen property, inside the vehicle.

Huntley's Bryce Only drives past Jacobs' Blake Micel on Tuesday. | Michael R. Schmidt ~ For Sun-Times Media
Huntley's long winning streak in Fox Valley Conference Valley Division games might be over, but its streak of league championships is alive and well.
The Red Raiders clinched at least a share of their third consecutive FVC Valley title Tuesday by dismantling visiting Jacobs 54-26.
The triumph came three days after Huntley (16-7, 10-1) had its 29-game FVC Valley win streak snapped in a loss at Dundee-Crown. Against the Golden Eagles, the Raiders went back to the basics and turned in their best defensive performance of the season.
Jacobs (12-13, 6-4) managed only seven points in the second half and was a wretched 1-for-22 from field-goal range over the final two quarters.
"I think we were hungry to come out and beat Jacobs," Huntley junior Zach Gorney said. "We knew what was on the line and that if we won tonight we'd clinch a share of the title. I think everyone wanted to get the job done."
Gorney finished with a game-high 15 points and Jake Wagner added 14 points to pace a balanced scoring effort for Huntley. But the real story was the defensive play of the Red Raiders in the second half.
The Golden Eagles pulled within 26-21 on a pair of Jon Berndt free throws with 7:25 left in the third quarter. Jacobs wouldn't score again until Patrick Nerja made his team's only field goal of the second half at the 7:21 mark in the fourth quarter.
Huntley sandwiched a 25-2 run around Nerja's basket and led 51-23 when Wagner sank a pair of free throws with 3:47 left. The Golden Eagles finished 7-for-37 (18.9 percent) from the field.
"(Huntley) took us out of everything and their defense was tremendous," Jacobs coach Jim Hinkle said. "I think they were a little angry about their last game, and we paid the price."
Lake Ojo tallied seven points and five rebounds to lead the Golden Eagles, who were coming off a 77-point performance in a win against Cary-Grove on Saturday. Remarkably, Tuesday's effort wasn't the lowest scoring output of the year for Jacobs, with that distinction going to a 25-point showing in a loss at Quincy on Nov. 24.
"It's just been an inconsistent season," Ojo said. "The last game we scored 77 points, and then we come back and score 26. I'm expecting an 80-point game the next time out."
Huntley's Amanze Egekeze was disruptive in the paint as usual and finished with nine points, eight rebounds and three blocks.
The Red Raiders will try to clinch the outright FVC Valley championship and start another winning streak in league games when they host Cary-Grove on Friday.
"I was happy with our effort Saturday (against Dundee-Crown), so that's not really something I've questioned with our guys," Huntley coach Marty Manning said. "I was glad there wasn't a letdown in effort from Saturday night and that we weren't feeling sorry for ourselves. We talked about that and we wanted to make sure that we came out ready to play."
Jacobs (12-13, 6-4)
Ojo 3 1-2 7, Ledinsky 2 0-2 4, Schwerdtmann 1 2-2 4, Berndt 0 2-2 2, Murray 0 2-2 2, Orange 0 1-2 1, Lee 0 1-2 1, Billings 0 0-0 0. Totals 7 11-16 26.

text: (NAFB)--The current flexibility allowing schools to serve larger portions of lean protein and whole grains at mealtime will be made permanent according to USDA Under Secretary for Food, Nutrition and Consumer Services Kevin Concannon. He says USDA made the commitment to provide needed stability for long-term planning by making the flexibility permanent earlier this school year. This additional flexibility - given in response to public feedback on the updates to school meal standards made by USDA - has been available on a temporary basis since 2012. USDA has worked closely with schools and parents during the transition to healthier breakfasts, lunches and snack - and data show the vast majority of schools around the country are successfully meeting the new meal standards.

HoopsHype Wayne Ellington rumors
Jeff Caplan: Mavs announce they have officially signed guard Wayne Ellington. Twitter @Caplan_NBA
Adrian Wojnarowski: Dallas has reached agreement on a two-year, $5-million plus deal with free agent guard Wayne Ellington, league sources tell Y! Sports. Twitter @WojYahooNBA
Sam Amico: Free agent guard Wayne Ellington is drawing strongest interest from the Pistons, Bulls and Bucks, NBA sources say. Twitter @SamAmicoFSO
Dave McMenamin: Lakers have also inquired about Cavs guard Wayne Ellington with his agent Arn Tellem. Notice a trend? Putting shooting at a premium Twitter @mcten
The Cavaliers chose not to extend Wayne Ellington a qualifying offer by this weekend's deadline, a league source told the Beacon Journal, effectively making him an unrestricted free agent. But the team remains open to re-signing him. Akron Beacon Journal
The Cavs' most prominent free agents are guards Wayne Ellington and Shaun Livingston and center Marreese Speights. The Cavs would like to sign Ellington. That means presenting him a qualifying offer of $3 million. It's not as easy with Speights. It appears as if they hope he opts out of his deal. He might not fit their culture. Livingston emerged as a top-notch backup point — not quite as good as Golden State's Jarrett Jack — but still a quality guard, nonetheless. He'll likely ask for $3 million or $4 million, and settle for something like $2 million or $2.5 million, a source said. Morning Journal
The Cavs will offer Wayne Ellington (a restricted free agent) some type of contract for next season. Ellington is averaging 10.4 points and shooting .437 (.370 on 3-pointers) in 23 minutes per game for the Cavs. They also will be pleased if Mo Speights accepts his player option of $4.5 million for next season. Speights also could pass, and become an unrestricted free agent. The Cavs will see what kind of offers he attracts on the open market. Cleveland Plain Dealer
With 2:57 to go in the second, Williams brought the ball upcourt and blew past Cavs guard Wayne Ellington with ease. From there, the Cavs defense parted like the Red Sea, allowing Williams to glide to the basket and slam the ball home. "I didn't really plan it," Williams said with a smile afterward. "It's just something that happened." New York Post
Cavs guard Wayne Ellington has made an impact. He'll be a restricted free agent after this year. This is his third team in his four years in the NBA. The Cavs might want to sign him in free agency. "It's a business," he said. "We'll see. I'm happy to be here." Morning Journal
My guess is the Cavs will likely offer shooting guard Wayne Ellington a contract similar to what Alonzo Gee got last fall — three years, $9.75 million. The Cavs will almost assuredly give him a qualifying offer of about $3.1 million, which will make him restricted. News-Herald
These Grizzlies aren't the Lakers, and they don't get a lot of chances at making a deep playoff run. They could've hung in there for this season, but instead bailed on it. Across the NBA, front offices were incredulous with the way that Memphis unloaded Marreese Speights, Wayne Ellington and Josh Selby, along with a future first-round pick, in a salary dump to Cleveland last week. Several league executives insisted Memphis could've waited until closer to the deadline, traded the parts individually and, minimally, received returns on Speights and Ellington. "Beyond a panic move," one Eastern Conference GM said. "Cleveland would always be there with that deal." Yahoo! Sports
The Memphis Grizzlies acquired forward Jon Leuer (LOO-er) and a trade exception from the Cleveland Cavaliers in exchange for forward/center Marreese Speights, guards Wayne Ellington and Josh Selby and a protected future first round draft pick, Grizzlies General Manager and Vice President of Basketball Operations Chris Wallace announced. Currently in his second professional season, Leuer (6-10, 228) recorded 19.5 points, 12.3 rebounds and 1.8 assists on .512 shooting (.467 3FG) in 36.5 minutes in eight games (seven starts) for Cleveland's exclusively-owned NBA Development League team, the Canton Charge. The 23-year-old also has made nine appearances for the Cavaliers this season, averaging 2.4 points in 10.1 minutes. NBA.com
The Cleveland Cavaliers have acquired forward/center Marreese Speights, guard Wayne Ellington, guard Josh Selby and a future first round draft pick from the Memphis Grizzlies in exchange for forward Jon Leuer, Cavaliers General Manager Chris Grant announced today from Cleveland Clinic Courts. The Cavaliers also waived guard Jeremy Pargo. "Marreese will strengthen our front court, while Wayne and Josh will add depth to our back court. At the same time, we are adding a valuable asset with another future first round pick, while also maintaining our future flexibility," said Cavaliers General Manager Chris Grant. "We wish Jon and Jeremy the best as they move on with their careers and thank them for their time with us here in Cleveland." NBA.com
In a much- desired need to get under the NBA's luxury tax, the Memphis Grizzlies traded forward-center Marreese Speights, guards Josh Selby and Wayne Ellington and a future draft pick to the Cleveland Cavaliers for guard Jon Leuer, a person familiar with the deal told USA TODAY Sports on Tuesday. USA Today Sports
However, it is important to the Grizzlies because it saves them roughly $6.2 million in salary, getting them below the $70.3 million luxury tax threshold and helping them avoid tax payments after the season. The Grizzlies, recently purchased by Robert Pera, who has restructured the front office, had been shopping forward Rudy Gay in an effort to trim salary. This might be a sign that Memphis is willing to keep Gay and see how the season plays out. USA Today Sports
All signs also point to Ellington not receiving a contract extension before the Oct. 31 deadline. Ellington still has to prove he can be a consistent perimeter shooter in this league. The Griz recent ownership change also is a factor given the team is $4 million over the luxury-tax threshold and new boss Robert Pera likely won't make any personnel decision until after the season. Memphis Commercial Appeal
Ronald Tillery: Griz guard Wayne Ellington left practice Monday with right knee contusion. He is day to day. Twitter @CAGrizBlog

100W of high-quality and outrageous gain.
The Diamond Amplification Nitrox Custom Series 100W Modern tube guitar amp head features the same quality construction as other Diamond Amplification products with outrageous gain. The Nitrox adds more lows than DA's other high gain amps, but remains insanely tight, which makes it perfect for uber-heavy rhythms and precision playing. The Nitrox also focuses heavily on thick, but smooth, upper mids to ensure it cuts through the mix with razor sharp precision.
Channel 1 remains DA's heralded clean channel with the same control set: Volume, Gain, Bass, Middle, Treble and Presence. Channel 2 has the same controls but also features DA's signature dual volume/gain design. This feature gives the player the option of having two gain settings that are accessible on the fly. The Nitrox also features a real, correctly designed effects loop. You just plug a cable into the effects send and the loop activates. The front panel features a master volume, which reads E. Return. When the loop is on, the E. Return knob acts as the amp's overall master - turn this knob up or down to increase or decrease the amp's overall volume. When the loop is off, each channel's volume control acts as that channel's master volume.

EXETER — For a number of years hazardous waste and politics have been a winning combination for some area politicians.
On Saturday morning the Rockingham Planning Commission will hold its annual Household Hazardous Waste Day at the Department of Public Works complex on Newfields Road. In addition to having an opportunity to get rid of hazardous waste products, residents will also get a chance to meet candidates running in various area political races.
EXETER — The annual household hazardous waste collection for Exeter, Stratham, Newfields, East Kingston and Epping will be held Saturday, Oct. 6 at the Exeter Public Works Garage on Newfields Road from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
The collection is for residents of Exeter, Stratham, Newfields, East Kingston and Epping. Residents from Exeter and Stratham are asked to drop off their wastes from 8:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m.; and residents from Newfields, East Kingston and Epping from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
There is a suggested donation of $5 per household to help offset the cost of the collection. Again this year the program will not accept electronic equipment. We will have a handout available explaining where residents can drop off their electronics for a small fee.
This collection, which happens just once a year, provides residents of Exeter, Stratham, Newfields, East Kingston and Epping with an opportunity to conveniently and safely dispose of unwanted household hazardous materials. Residents of these communities are urged to take advantage of this opportunity since disposing of these wastes improperly can pose a serious threat to our drinking water supply. Each household is allowed to bring up to the equivalent of 10 gallons of waste.
There is no charge for disposal; however, we are asking for a $5 donation per household to offset the costs, up to the 10 gallon limit. Wastes from residents of towns other than Exeter, Stratham, Newfields, East Kingston and Epping will not be accepted, nor will waste from commercial businesses.
The following types of waste will be accepted: pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, insect sprays, rodent poisons, pool chemicals, muriatic acid, antifreeze, brake fluid, wax polish, engine degreaser, carburetor cleaner, creosote, gasoline, kerosene; asbestos, rust remover, wood preservatives, oil-based paints, paint thinner, solvents, degreasers drain cleaners, oven cleaners, furniture polish, metal polish, photo chemicals, mercury, fluorescent light bulbs, cell phones, rechargeable batteries (no alkaline batteries made after 1996 — these can be disposed of safely in the trash). Car batteries and waste engine oil will also be accepted by the towns for recycling. Lead sinkers, which are now banned from use in New Hampshire waters, will also be accepted.
Items not accepted at the collection are: gas cylinders, explosive materials, ammunition, radioactive materials, infectious and biological wastes, and prescription medicines/syringes, esters, ethers, and materials whose content cannot be determined. Latex paint will also not be accepted, but only because this material is not hazardous or toxic once solidified. Surplus latex paint can be disposed by removing the paint can lid, allowing the paint to dry thoroughly, and disposing it in the regular household trash.
This collection is jointly funded by the Towns of Exeter, Stratham, Newfields, East Kingston and Epping. Organization is being provided at no cost by the Rockingham Planning Commission.
The town garage is located on Newfields Road (Route 85) about 1/4 mile south of the 101/85 interchange. Residents may contact Exeter, Stratham, Newfields, East Kingston or Epping Town Offices, or the Rockingham Planning Commission at 778-0885 for more information.
For about a decade, the event has served as a political hot spot for campaigning during election years. Typically candidates will stand off of the driveway of the complex, far away from the actual waste collection, to reach out those residents who are waiting in line in their vehicles.
Exeter state Reps. Marshall "Lee" and Matt Quandt, both Republicans, say they started going to the dump in 1998 with former Exeter selectman Alan Williams.
"We thought it would be a good opportunity to meet and talk to people because sometimes they're stuck waiting in line for 5 to 10 minutes," said Lee Quandt.
Like any campaigning effort, Lee Quandt said he has received both positive and negative feedback on campaigning at the dump, but felt most of the feedback was positive enough to continue.
Others candidates quickly followed suite and Lee Quandt estimated there were about 20 local candidates campaigning at the event in 2010.
"It's just a fun time — it's political, but you can have fun with it," he said. "People do ask you a lot of questions, not only political."
Even current gubernatorial candidate Maggie Hassan once used Household Hazardous Waste Day as a campaign stop during one of her state Senate runs, according to Lee Quandt.
State Rep. Donna Schlachman, D-Exeter — who is seeking re-election along with the Quandts in District 18 — will be making her third campaign stop at Household Hazardous Waste Day on Saturday and said she always finds it beneficial.
"The wonderful thing about serving in the House is that you're serving people in the community, and this type of campaigning is personal and close," Schlachman said. "Maybe it's a small population of people we're reaching, but those people may talk to their neighbors and say 'guess who I saw.' You never know the impact you have when you show up for one of these things."
Schlachman said she also uses the experience to thank people for responsibly disposing of their household hazardous waste.
Cliff Sinnott, executive director of the Rockingham Planning Commission said he's not surprised by the campaigning.
"There's a long tradition in New Hampshire, maybe New England, of the town dump or transfer station always being a place for political campaigning," he said. "This is slightly different but it's still a concentration of a lot of people in one place."
Sinnott said sometimes the campaigning can get overwhelming, but for the most part the candidates are respectful and just hand out pamphlets.
"As long as there is respect and decorum shown, it's usually OK," he said.
This year the Board of Selectmen have put some parameters in place to ensure the campaigning is kept under control.
Campaigners are asked to stay in the driveway area of the DPW complex and can't go past the first solar array panel off of the driveway. In addition, all political signs must be held by a person and can't be placed into the ground.
Sinnott said about 200 to 300 people take advantage of Household Hazardous Waste Day each year.

You think we are the only ones expecting a special season from Karl Dorrell in 2007?
From What's Bruin (emphasis mine):
Last year, coming off a 10-2 season with more miracles than an entire season at Lourdes, the Bruins sold 43,000, including students and faculty seating. "We renewed those seats at about a 90% clip," said UCLA Director of Marketing Scott Mitchell, "which is historically high for us.
"But we're on a pace now - comparing week-against-week sales from a year ago - of about 6,500 tickets ahead at this date. So we could be at 50,000 season tickets or beyond and that's our goal."
That would be an all-time record for UCLA and a sure sign of what fans expect from the Bruins this coming season on the field.
After delivering underachieving seasons year after year Dorrell already has been reduced to a cartoon figure among UCLA alums and students:
That ladies and gentleman is the work of our norcalbruin95. For more Simpsons related festivities go here. If Perlemen is not in the pocket of Morgan Center, I'd imagine this graphic will make it into What's Bruin (it's not like he has a problem with posting fan generated photoshops). Prove us wrong Rich.
Anyways, going back to KD the news of record setting ticket sales only confirms that people are expecting big things this coming year. And if Dorrell doesn't come through and deliver anything other than a special season there will be thousands of unhappy season ticket holders who will be looking for a change.

At first, "swamp fires" might seem like an oxymoron, and I was certainly surprised to read about them when I read Suspended Access, the history of the Opiki toll bridge. In this history, Molly Akers relates how, as the floodplains around the lower Manawatu River were drained to stimulate flax growth for milling, peat fires in the swamp became a continual menace. What makes peat fires unusual, in comparison to forest or scrub fires, is that they burn underground. (more…)

Waikato: from dairy capital to wetland capital of the world?Posted by envirohistorynz under commentary | Tags: Environmental History, Maori use of wetlands, national wetland centre, National Wetland Trust, New Zealand, peat lakes, Waikato, Waipa district, wetlands |
Leave a Comment
The Waikato was one of the original dairy farming regions of New Zealand, and its transformation from forested hills and swampy valleys to productive farmscapes was well underway by the late 19th century. So it would be ironic, but a satisfying example of the circular route environmental history often takes, if the region was one day to become known more for its wetlands than its "smiling farms".

Lake Rotoiti is one of a number of lakes which lie to the east and south of Lake Rotorua, the second largest lake in the North Island. The lakes were created as a result of a volcanic eruption about 240,000 years ago, and were for hundreds of years the ancestral home and source of food and other resources for the Te Arawa people.
Today, the land around the lakes is almost without exception developed – either as urban or rural settlements or farmland – with almost no indigenous forest remaining [click here to view satellite image showing the extent of development around the lake]. (more…)

Leave a Comment
On a recent trip from Rotorua to Hamilton, I stopped to look at what I thought at the time was a section of Waikato River, just west of State Highway 1, south-east of Cambridge [click here to view map]. Waikato River is New Zealand's longest river, running 425 kms from its source on the slopes of Mount Ruapehu, through Lake Taupo, New Zealand's largest lake, then flowing through the Waikato Plains before emptying into the Tasman Sea. I was therefore surprised to see a sign at a jetty informing me that this was in fact a lake – Lake Karapiro.
But something didn't add up – it seemed remarkably "river-like" for a lake. (more…)

In Nga Uruora – Ecology and History in a New Zealand Landscape (Chapter 3 – "The Riverbend"), Geoff Park tells the history of the riverine forests of Mokau, a river which flows from its source in the forest on the slopes of the Rangitoto Ranges, out to sea at the Taranaki Bight, just north of the boundary between Taranaki and Waikato [click here to view map]. Here is one of the very few places left in the North Island where coastal forest remains intact down to the sea. (more…)

The slaying of our kahikatea forests: how Jurassic giants became butter boxesPosted by envirohistorynz under commentary | Tags: Bagnall Brothers, berries, butter boxes, Captain Cook, dairy farms, Dean's Bush, dinosaurs, Environmental History, Geoff Park, Jurassic Period, kahikatea, lowland forest, New Zealand, Nga Manu, Nga Uruora, pterosaurs, Turua, Waihou River, Waikato |

New Zealand's tallest forest tree, the kahikatea (Dacrycarpus dacrydioides), once dominated the forests that covered much of New Zealand's swampy lowland areas. Far from a solitary tree, the kahikatea groups closely with other kahikatea, intertwining its buttressed roots with its neighbours for support in the unstable swampy ground. (It is perhaps for this reason that the kahikatea has evolved with such a tall, straight trunk with no lower branches, to enable it to "huddle" with others for stability). In autumn, throughout the lowlands of New Zealand, numerous forest birds chattered noisily in its canopy, feeding on its abundant red berries. These berries, called koroī, were also a valued food source for Māori, who skillfully climbed up the smooth branchless trunks to harvest them. (more…)

Radio New Zealand's "Country Life" programme is a favourite of mine – as a born-and-bred "townie" – I enjoy the insights it provides into living off the land – whether as a farmer, horticulturalist, or cottage industry owner. The programme also features stories which provide important insights from an environmental history perspective.
The most recent programme features a story about a southern Waikato farmer who, after growing up seeing the lowland indigenous forest around her town decimated by forestry, is covenanting 4 hectares of remnant bush on her farm in Mamaku [click here to view location] to ensure its future preservation. The bush is dominated by tawa, rimu and kahikatea, and is one of the last surviving remnants on this ignimbrite plateau which was once covered in dense forest. (more…)

From adversity comes opportunity: the unlikely origins of QEII TrustPosted by envirohistorynz under commentary | Tags: Beyond the Scene, bush remnant, covenants, dairy farming, forest destruction, Gordon Stephenson, milling, Putaruru, QEII Trust, Raukawa, Waikato, Waotu |
[2] Comments
Having recently read Beyond the Scene: landscape and identity in Aotearoa New Zealand one particular anecdote stood out for me (see also: Landscape and identity in NZ). This anecdote is important for two reasons: one, it provides a salutary reminder that destruction of our indigenous forest cannot simply be relegated to a long-passed and unenlightened chapter of our history – in fact, it has continued into recent decades. But the anecdote also has a more uplifting lesson, reminding us of the old adage that out of adversity arises opportunity: that the most devastating circumstances, can, with the right mix of leadership, commitment and persistence, give rise to an outcome that brings benefits that in time outweigh the initial loss.

50 million pound investment ruined, 100 Irish workers on site, now sacked because the Cork planners won't let him build a pond, it seems.
Soon as he lifted his arms from his side I knew there would be trouble......... and what the hell happened to that very beautiful red haired Irish lass that danced alongside. Hav'nt seen her for ages. Think we should be told.

Our review
It's the perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of downtown Seminyak.
Mimpi has a very refreshing, relaxing and exotic feel to it, highlighted by the lush tropical garden, perfectly-placed pool and the thatched Balinese roofs surrounding the villa. It is the perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of downtown Seminyak and we liked its open design with the pavilion-like living room overlooking the whole of the garden. It's a great family house on account of the flat enclosed garden, plus we felt that – with no live-in staff – it would suit couples who value their privacy (and space). The kitchen is well-equipped for self-catering and whilst water, tea and coffee are complimentary, the useful Bintang supermarket is only a 500m walk away for other supplies. We felt Mimpi was very well maintained with clean, comfortable and equitably sized bedrooms plus tropical bathrooms whose skylights made them feel bright and spacious. Although very simply designed with just three rooms, the villa felt spacious enough and we liked that the balé was located as far as possible from the rest of the house so that tranquillity could still be found even if family members were watching TV or making a noise in the living room. There's a useful villa information file that details everything from staff telephone numbers to where to eat and what to do. We found the staff to be very helpful and discreet, arriving at the times they said they would and filling us in on the details that we needed to know. They provided breakfast for us during our stay, but you can make your own if you prefer. The villa management office is conveniently only one kilometre away from the house and security patrols the estate 24 hours a day.
Individual Scores:
|Outside Area:
|Living Area:
A great central location that's protected from traffic noise but easy to reach many of Seminyak's prime attractions. The villa is well set up with clean and comfortable living areas.
Very few – just be careful on the terrazzo floors when wet as they tend to get very slippery. For a self-catering villa, we were a little surprised not to find a full oven in the kitchen, but there is a microwave and a large hob … and all those wonderful restaurants in Seminyak!

ROCHESTER, Minn. (KTTC) -- The condition of a man hurt in a street fight in Winona has improved from critical to fair.
The 21-year-old was taken to Saint Marys Hospital in Rochester after the fight near Franklin and 9th Street Saturday night.
Police said he was pushed to the ground and then kicked in the head as some 50 to 60 people fought in the street. When police came, they all scattered but the 21-year-old man was badly hurt.
The 21-year-old has been in critical condition at Saint Marys since Sunday. But hospital officials say he has improved and is now in fair condition.

Ruka, Finland, May 26, 2009 - The 2008-09 season is still continuing in Ruka
The 2008-9 season is still continuing in Ruka, Finland where a ski run is kept open to mid-June. Next season isn't far away either with the opening party for 2009-20 to take place on the November 6th-8th weekend.
The resort has announced improvements ahead of next winter. To begin with the first part of the new RukaVillage hotel combining the best services of hotels and apartments, will be opened in September 2009.

On the slopes, the Masto MiniPark will be reshaped in order to make it more like the resort's bigger famous BatteryPark, only easier, as the Masto Park is planned for kids and beginners mostly. There will be new jumps and rails and lots more. The Mini Cross track will be replaced with giant waves, which are fun and safe to ride. Snow waves for some skiing fun will also be created on slope 25 at Vuosseli.

The Council of Ministers approved the participation of the Republic of Cyprus in the first European programme for renewable energy sources in the armed forces of European Defence Agency member states.
With its participation in the programme, in which five other EU member states are taking part, Cyprus is a pioneer in installing photovoltaic systems in armed forces establishments.
According to a press release, among the advantages of installing photovoltaic systems is the employment of local workers to install and maintain the systems, the contribution to cultivating environmental awareness among soldiers and the youth in general, and the contribution of the Ministries of Defence and Energy to achieving the commitments of the Republic of Cyprus to meet the aim concerning the installation of 192MW systems by the year 2020.
There will be no cost for the state, since the investment will be made exclusively by foreign capital. On the contrary, there will be income from the sharing of profits among contributing states, the press release notes.
