Transportation Tax Vote Divides Georgians
One of the most talked about items on the primary ballot is the proposed transportation tax referendum. The controversial tax has prompted campaigns both for and against the penny tax and has divided regions in Georgia.

Cagle Suggests Reversible I-85 Lanes
Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle is calling on state transportation officials to add reversible lanes to north Georgia's congested Interstate 85. He would like to add movable barriers to the highway that would shift lanes to accommodate heavy traffic.
Wed., November 2, 2011 2:06am
Georgia Companies Seek Higher Truck Weight Limits
Some of Georgia's largest companies are lobbying state and federal officials to raise weight limits on highways in the states, a move they say will help the economy and the environment. State officials worry about safety and maintenance issues if heavier trucks are allowed on Georgia roads.
Tue., August 30, 2011 1:40pm
Politics And Regional Transportation
Project wish lists for Georgia's 12 transportation regions are almost complete. In 2012, voters will decide whether to pay a penny sales tax to fund the work. The process of whittling-down the lists -- and convincing voters to support them -- is a challenge for municipalities trying to serve voters locally, and support the region.

Feds Boost Major Road Project
$270 million in federal loans will fund one of the state's largest-ever transportation contracts. The type of project is what one state lawmaker calls the future of transportation building in Georgia. By adding toll lanes, the Northwest Corridor project could relieve congestion on a 30-mile stretch of Interstates 75 and 575 north of Atlanta. It's a public-private partnership that could cost up to $1 billion. The public's share would be about a third of that amount.

Ellis hired as the director for the Harmony Chamber of Commerce
Fri, Apr 29th, 2011
Posted in Business Announcements
Posted in Business Announcements
The Harmony Chamber of Commerce has been operating without a director for many years, but that changed recently when Emily Ellis was hired for the job.
Ellis lived in Macedonia for eight years, but returned to Harmony last June with her two sons. Coming back to Harmony was a dream come true for Ellis.
"I feel like I left myself in Harmony," shared Ellis. "I missed my family, and everybody knowing my name. I hadn't had that in eight years."
When Ellis returned home to her family farm, she found work in Rochester. But she didn't like spending so much time away from her children. While living overseas, Ellis worked for international corporations and non-profit organizations doing event planning and fund raising. When she saw the ad in the paper for the director of the Chamber of Commerce, she jumped at the chance.
"I thought it would be great to promote Harmony, because I love it, and I want others to love it, too," said Ellis. "I thought with the skills I gained it would be a great fit for this position."
As the Chamber director, Ellis will be taking over duties that the board had been doing. She will be working half time, but during busy times she will be working more. Ellis explained that her job consists of doing the bookwork for the chamber, planning and organizing events in Harmony, writing grants, promoting Harmony, marketing, and trying to get new members.
The new job also allows Ellis to be closer to her kids and be able to spend more time with them. "This is heaven for me," said Ellis. "I work in Harmony with people I know and love and help them make their businesses better, and make their events wonderful."
This first year Ellis will be spending a lot of time getting to know the ins and outs of the job. She will be organizing and planning the 12 events that will be in Harmony this year, which started with the Easter egg hunt and will include things like Family Fun Night and the Fourth of July celebration. She will discover what works and what doesn't work when planning these events and promoting the town, and next year she hopes they can expand.
Ellis said she wants to branch out even more and help make Harmony exactly what they want it to be, and to bring more people into the town.
Marilyn Trouten, who is in charge of the tourism office, will be retiring at the end of the season. When she is done, Ellis will also take over staffing and administration of the tourism office.
A reception was held at the Visitor's Center on April 28 to honor the new chamber director. Several of the 90 Chamber members were present to welcome her to her new position.
"Just being in Harmony makes me happy," said Ellis. "It's going to be a lot of fun; there are a lot of positive people in town."

Gulag Americana
The November 22 Washington Post reported an alarming story about a Virginia resident and American citizen, 22 year-old Ahmed Abu Ali. In June, as he was preparing to return home to Falls Church from Saudi Arabia where he is a student. He was detained by Saudi Arabian authorities, at the request of the U.S., supposedly for the purposes of "interrogation" about his involvement in a plot, along with other Northern Virginia residents, to provide aid to rebels in Kashmir, who are fighting the Indian takeover of that region. Ali disputes his involvement in the activities of some of his acquaintances who have pled to vague charges of training to fight against a friend of the U.S. (India) in a prosecution in Alexandria, Virginia federal court.
We have no way of knowing what, if anything, Ali did that might be illegal under our broad and far-reaching anti-terrorist laws. That is beside the point at this time. What is the point, however, is that an American citizen can't come home, and the U.S. government is working with a foreign country to keep him locked up without a charge, without an attorney, without a trial, and with no hope of returning home. Because the U.S. set up his "detention," he has none of the protections normally afforded to a U.S. citizen who may be imprisoned in a foreign country, such as access to help from the State Department and consular personnel.
Ali's case brings to mind that of Maher Arar, the Canadian citizen whom the U.S. conspired to ship to Syria for interrogation, with the help of the Canadian government. Arar was returning to Canada through New York with federal agents captured him and put him on a plane to Syria. He was imprisoned in Syria for several months, where he says he was tortured. Neither the U.S. or Canada cared about returning him home-Syria let him go because, according to the Syrian ambassador to the U.S., it could find no cause t hold him.
Maybe I have been naive, but I had no idea that our government could do what was done to Ali, an American citizen. Or that it would do what it to do with a citizen of another country–literally put a hood over his head and take him out of the country.
In a communication with his family, said that he was being threatened with being declared an enemy combatant and shipped to Guantanamo Bay. If this were the case, it would be yet another outrageous act by President Bush, to imprison an American citizen and deny him access to U.S. courts. Attorney Ashraf Nubani, who has been on the front line of dozens of cases against alleged "terrorists," has tried in vain to find legal help for Ali in Saudi Arabia. He says no attorney there will touch the case. Not that he would gain access to Ali, anyway. No doubt the Saudis would be as unlikely to give him access to counsel as the U.S. would. As I write that sentence, I am stunned by the fact that this is no longer a surprise to me, an attorney of 24 years, who never thought she would be routinely writing about Americans who are captured and imprisoned by their government without being charged with any crime.
It has been a bad week for Americans caught up in the "war" on terror. Attorney Lynne Stewart was reindicted on new terrorist charges, after the judge threw out earlier charges. The 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals seemed ready to cede power to the president to keep Jose Padilla in prison forever, without charge, trial, or attorney, because he has been designated an "enemy combatant." And now, an American abroad is imprisoned in Saudi Arabia.
There is no safe harbor for anyone whom the government wants to do in. Where is our Alexander Solzenitsyn, whom you may recall penned a classic of dissidence literature, The Gulag Archipelego. Where is our collective outrage?

The Prada saga
Related Articles
Published: 13 February 2004
This lack of buzz about the shops is amazing, given that Prada was where supermodels and fashion editors came to blows over nylon bags throughout the Nineties.
The classic Prada look was minimalist, modern, intellectual. Iconic collections followed hot on each other's heels: from the revolutionary nylon of the early Nineties to the librarian look of spring 2000, to the Paco Rabanne-esque Sixties look unveiled in 2001.
Every six months, Prada produced a completely new and original collection. Prada shows became the most eagerly awaited of the fashion calendar. By 1997, Prada was being described as the 'hottest fashion label in the world' and sales had rocketed: from $50 million in 1990 to $1.5 billion in 2000.
All the supermodels wore Prada; so did Diana, Princess of Wales. The American actresses Jennifer Jason Leigh, Robin Givens and Jennifer Tilly were all snapped in the same checked Prada coat one summer and Madonna declared that Evita was only interested in politics 'because Prada hadn't started making dresses'.
But recently, the shine has come off the little black triangle. Figures released by the company for 2002 show that British sales fell for the first time since 1997, after five years of enormous sales growth.
To be precise, in 2002, UK sales dropped from £24.8 million to £24.4 million, and 19 staff were laid off in the UK, a reversal the company blamed on 'depressed trading conditions following the September 11 terrorist attacks'. And given the recent feel-bad economic climate, perhaps Prada's prices (£1,975 for a corset dress, £455 for a printed bag with gilt chain) do seem somewhat hard to swallow.
The trouble started as a result of an overconfident spending spree by Patrizio Bertelli, one half of the Prada empire, in the late Nineties. Following the example of Gucci and the luxury group Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy, he started snapping up other fashion houses in order to turn Prada into a multibrand conglomerate.
Prada bought stakes in Jil Sander and Helmut Lang, Genny and Church's shoes, as well as 51 per cent of Fendi in partnership with LVMH - and saddled itself with a total debt approaching a billion euros by the end of 2001.
As well as stretching itself by acquiring other brands, the company also launched a major revamp and expansion of Prada stores which has cost it many tens of millions of dollars. This year Prada intends to open a third 'epicentre' store in Beverly Hills, to join the ones in New York and Tokyo.
Designed to create a unique shopping experience, a cross between emporium and art gallery, these shops are by no means cheap. The New York store, designed by the iconic Dutch architect Rem Koolhaas, reportedly cost $40 million to build and opened with spectacularly unlucky timing, just weeks after 9/11.
And then there are the millions Bertelli spent on entering a Prada yacht in the America's Cup.
Incredibly, the state of the company's finances made the front page of The Wall Street Journal last week. Prada announced that it intended to sell real estate to the value of around e120 million to reduce its borrowings, and is seeking a further e90 million from the sale of 80 per cent of its enormous, cutting-edge Tokyo store, for which it would then pay rent.
For the truth is that despite Prada's iconic status as a brand, and its influence over the fashion world, it currently labours under a net debt of e675 million.
The company has recently been paring itself down. It sold its share of Fendi to LVMH, and, in November last year, a 55 per cent stake in Church's to the private equity fund Equinox.
Going public and selling shares in the company would be one obvious way for Prada to raise money. Since 2001, the company has announced three times that it intends to float. Each time it has pulled out, citing unfavourable economic circumstances.
Deutsche Bank has issued a bond of e700 million on behalf of Prada's parent company ITMD Investments, which expires in 2005 and can be converted into Prada shares if and when the company floats.
'One could argue that they bought a bit too much a bit too quickly. Bertelli is always talking about releasing up to 30 per cent of the company,' says David Duncan Smith, brother of Iain and managing director of Prada UK between 1999 and 2001.
'But it wouldn't be easy for him, because of the way he runs the group, to have to be answering to shareholders. I'd be surprised if they floated any time soon.'
By drawing in his horns, Bertelli is inevitably spending more time on the core brand, something that Duncan Smith approves of: 'He's been focusing more on Prada and to a lesser extent Miu Miu, ensuring that his real gem is going to continue to shine.'
Prada is not usually associated with bad news of any description. Its early success was spectacular and apparently unstoppable. When Miuccia Prada inherited her grandfather Mario's luxury luggage business in 1978, aged 28, it consisted of a single shop in Milan, and nobody could possibly have predicted the global empire it has become.
For one thing, Miuccia seemed an unlikely candidate for a fashion designer. A PhD graduate in political science from Milan University, she was a member of the Communist Party and a dedicated feminist who, prior to taking over at the family business, spent her time confronting local government officials and nurturing a budding political career.
And although she wore Yves Saint Laurent on the barricades, it is little wonder if her attitude to the fashion business - hardly a feminist-friendly industry - has been ambivalent.
'Being so involved in the women's movement, I thought that making bags or shoes or dresses was the worst way I could spend my time,' she once said. 'I never actually decided to become a designer. I wanted to be something more, but not everybody can be Albert Schweitzer or Karl Marx.'
But she turned out to be very good at it. Her grandfather had made his name designing walrus-skin luggage, each trunk so heavy you needed two manservants to lift it off the ground.
Unimpressed by such luxury, Miuccia started to run up nylon totes on her grandfather's sewing machines, gave them a £250 price tag and attached to them a triangular tag like the one she found on the steamer trunks.
'I like industrial fabrics, and I like luxury,' she explained. 'We were coming into the Eighties and everything had to be gilded. I wanted to do something different - something practical to help women with busy lives.' But although Jerry Hall traded her Asprey luggage for a complete set of Prada bags, the idea was too avant-garde to have mass appeal.
It was at this point that Miuccia met her future husband and business partner, Patrizio Bertelli, at a factory that was producing leather goods for both of them. They went into partnership, making plain black loafers and practical, flat black boots; in 1989, a year after the couple married, the first line of Prada clothing appeared.
'It was the only thing to do,' she said. 'Any businessman knows that if you stand still, you go backwards. So forward was the only way to go.' The collection was austere, described as ' appropriate for a Communist youth rally', but a breath of fresh air in the excess of the Eighties and in keeping with Miuccia's feminist past. In 1994 the company launched the slightly cheaper Miu Miu range (Miuccia's childhood nickname).
By now, power dressing was beginning to give way to dressing down. And it was at this point that the nylon bags came into their own. They were the epitome of stealth wealth, expensive (from £200) and recognisable only to those in the know. The Prada frenzy had begun.
Only Miuccia, it seems, remained unimpressed by the hysteria. 'Let's face it, fashion is not really very important,' she said. 'I mean it's only skirts and a few bags.'
But skirts and a few bags have brought her family the sort of wealth that Karl Marx would thoroughly have disapproved of. The family (the Bertellis have two young sons, Giulio and Lorenzo, who are kept strictly out of the limelight have homes in St Moritz and Tuscany, and own Miuccia's old family home in Milan. The couple also collect modern art by such names as Anish Kapoor and Robert Irwin, and have opened a private art foundation of their own.
One thing that is not in doubt, whatever the company's financial decisions, is Miuccia's talent. But paradoxically, some fashion watchers claim that even this is a problem: Prada's enormous influence over trends has actually worked to the company's disadvantage.
'Prada is one of the few houses that can still set the fashion,' says an editor at a men's glossy, 'so the clothes are immediately copied by the high street chains, because they know they are going to sell.' M&S's summer range is said to have been inspired by the label.
'I saw a big Fifties-style skirt on M&S's press rail that looked very Prada-influenced,' says Alexandra Shulman, editor of Vogue. 'I think that Prada's spring/summer collection will be one of its most influential in terms of what you'll see on the high street.'
'From a fashion point of view, Prada is back on the map,' agrees Bridget Cosgrave, fashion director of the influential Wimbledon fashion store Matches.
'We've always had very good custom for Prada basics - the cashmere knits, the great pants - but in the past few years, we haven't been selling so many of what I call the fashion show pieces.
This spring, though, the look is spot-on, and the buying has been very strongly weighted towards the fashion pieces.'
Jason Mitchell Jacobs, head of finance and corporate communications at the Prada Group, claims that the business situation is healthier than commentators suggest.
'Our sales were off by one per cent in 2002, which means they are stable,' he claims, and states that the company plans to go public in the second half of this year or the beginning of 2005, as long as market conditions are favourable. 'And in the same year, the company posted a bottom-line profit in the UK. We regard Britain as one of our key markets.'
He says that the company's net profit for 2003 should be 30 per cent greater than 2002's e27 million. And Bertelli, too, clearly feels that things are looking up for the group.
'After ten years of exceptional development and the slowdown in 2002 and 2003, we have reached all the necessary conditions to move ahead on the path of sustained growth, starting in 2004,' he recently announced.
But the real responsibility for the company's lustre and reputation rests on the slight shoulders of one woman. 'Miuccia Prada is a genius,' says commentator and fashion historian Colin McDowell. 'She is followed, and copied, by everyone.
All the great fashion houses have gone through a bad period, but in my opinion, Prada will definitely weather the storm.'
Even the fickleness of fashion, it seems, is no match for the enduring flair of a shy, intellectual, Italian ex-Communist.

HP Recovery Manger Help
Hello Everyone
My Original Factory shipped OS was Vista 32bit the later on, I upgraded to Windows 7
messed up my system by accidently modifying the registry (Deleted explorer folder) and now everything dosen't work correctly as it should but the OS is still operational
Now i'm trying to use a Recovery Partition that was Shipped with my System to Restore itself to factory shipped settings, only thing is when i try to use the HP Recovery Manager that came with my computer, It Dosen't Recognize that the Recovery Partition is actually there and prompts me to use Backup disks which i have't created.
I have Not touched or modified the Recovery Partition since i installed Windows 7 So It's absolutely NOT Damaged.
So Help on getting my system Restored would be appreciated.

Hello inforis, welcome to Seven Forums!
I wasn't aware HP did it this way but some manufacturers have it set up so that the disks and the partition are needed to work in unison to restore to factory specs.
You didn't create the disks; have you contacted HP to see if they still have a set of disks for that particular PC as they keep images of the ones they've used for quite some time and will ship them out for (usually) shipping costs.

This is why you need to make your Recovery Disks when you get a new computer.
When you upgraded it likely lost the link to the Recovery partition. It would only recover you to Vista anyway and you want Windows 7, right? Vista doesn't need to be on the HD to reinstall Windows 7, just boot the installer and clean install over the current Windows 7: Clean Install Windows 7
First I would try to run System File checker which can replace any damaged System Files. Type CMD in start search box, rightclick on result, Run As Administrator, type sfc /scannow.
If this isn't enough then run a Repair Install from the desktop, which reinstalls Windows 7 while keeping all programs, files and settings in place.

Try doing a System Restore before anything else. If it works, it will restore your registry and your problem will be solved. There is an excellent tutorial here on how to use System Restore: How to Do a System Restore in Windows 7
|My System Specs
|31 Aug 2010
If Windows 7 won't start, you can make a Repair Disk here to run System Restore: System Repair Disc - Create
Excerpted from tutorial on using Repair CD - System Repair Disk:
Insert the CD in the CD / DVD drive and reboot the computer.
When requested, "Hit any key to boot from CD."
Select the Language and click next.
Windows will search for an Operating System to repair.
You can choose to restore a System Image you created,
or go the Recovery Tools screen.
These are the same utilities available through the Install DVD,
or via the function of the 100 MB System Partition (if installed).
Or if you have the 100mb System Reserved partition, Tapping the F8 key before Windows loads (Safe Mode) opens this menu which will access the same Recovery Tools:

Niedermayer is gifted offensively, skates effortlessly and is as steady as a defenseman can be. Pronger is a physical monster with a blistering shot. "We're really not stepping on each other's toes," Niedermayer said, laughing. "We are different players. We accomplish the same things, but just in different ways. It's worked out fine so far." Added kid brother Rob, "I don't think you can really convey exactly how much more confidence it gives everybody from the goalie out to have Scotty and Prongs back there."read on

Reunited and it feels so good. That's what Ian Kennedy might be saying about the New York Yankees. The Yankees clearly need another starting pitcher (sorry Chris Capuano) and according to ESPN's Jim Bowden, the Pads and Yankees are talking this:
Yankees & Padres discussing deal that would send Ian Kennedy to Yankees in exchange for Eric Jagielo and Ian Clarkin according to a source
— JIM BOWDEN (@JimBowdenESPNxm) July 25, 2014
Now Jagielo and Clarkin are a lot to give up, but Kennedy is a quality arm that the Yankees have control over. It seemed to be against the MO of what Cashman has been doing so far in adding pieces.
Here's this from CBS' Jon Heyman:
yankees are interested in kennedy but not in clarkin plus jagielo for kennedy.
— Jon Heyman (@JonHeymanCBS) July 25, 2014
theres nothing hot at all with kennedy and yankees at moment. theyd like a SP but no match to date on Ian K. — Jon Heyman (@JonHeymanCBS) July 25, 2014
Well so much for that. But wait. There's this:
Yankees also in discussions with Rockies involving Jorge De La Rosa who is red hot 3-0 with a 1.78 ERA and 1.105 Whip in July #Rockies#NYY — JIM BOWDEN (@JimBowdenESPNxm) July 25, 2014
Per Heyman, the Orioles are also in on De La Rosa, but were asking for prized prospect Kevin Gausman in return. If that's what they want, the Yankees will be hard pressed to match. We are less than a week to go until the deadline, so look for more stories like this.

Fall 2014 Town Hall Meeting Summary
President Solnick led the fall 2014 Town Hall meeting on Tuesday, August 12 with faculty and staff attending. After recognizing new Warren Wilson College employees, he began his presentation, which was followed by a question and answer segment.
President Solnick provided updates on the following:
The 2013-14 year closed slightly better than anticipated, with the Financial Stabilization Fund covering the gap between revenues and expenditures. A small balance will remain in that Stabilization Fund for the current year. Though the College's long-term finances are stable, the budget picture for 2014-15 remains challenging. Enrollment numbers indicate that we are still on track to meet the budgeted headcount of 821 students for the start of the fall 2014 semester. New student numbers are looking strong, but we are seeing unusual volatility among our continuing students. Looking ahead to next year as the admission season begins, admission inquiry numbers are up significantly over last year. The faculty/staff Budget Advisory Committee established in the spring semester will continue to meet this year to provide greater transparency to the budgeting process and offer input into setting priorities as our revenues grow stronger.
The design refresh of the College website is in the final stages, and the rollout is scheduled to begin in a few weeks. In addition, Art & Science, the strategic positioning research firm that the College has engaged, has completed 150 interviews with admitted students and is analyzing the data. A steering committee that includes faculty, staff, students, administrators and trustees will meet again in September with Art & Science representatives to hear their preliminary report. Additional interviews with students inquiring about the College will take place over the winter, and a final report is expected next spring. Decisions on strategic positioning, marketing and rebranding will flow from the Art & Science research, which will also be an important input to the College's next strategic plan.
Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges
The College's Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) team is finalizing the ten-year reaffirmation compliance report that will be delivered on September 10. A SACSCOC team will review the report offsite and provide us with a report. An on-site committee will be on campus January 27-29, 2015. The Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP), a component of SACSCOC reaccreditation, was recommended in May after extensive campuswide discussion and approved by the President. It is titled "Educators as Change Agents: Teaching Diversity and Social Justice across the Triad." Gary Hawkins and the QEP team will be working hard on QEP planning in September and October.
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)
A consultant was retained to guide the College in replacing Aptron with a new ERP system and in creating more effective internal business processes. Phil Leonard, who has led this effort for the campus, worked with the consultants to organize a half-dozen meetings over the summer analyzing business processes such as human resources, purchasing, academic registration, work and service programs, etc. These sessions will help define the parameters and specifications for the new system. We will be moving along to vendor selection this fall.
Financial Aid
Many families are seeing changes in their expected family contributions (EFC) as a result of improving job opportunities, changes in tax filing status or changes in federal methodologies for assessing need. When a family's EFC increases, our policy has always been to downwardly adjust need-based aid awards. As a family's ability to pay increases, it is able to invest more in a student's education. Some students are reporting that these adjustments signal changes in the College's financial aid policies or cutbacks in the College's overall financial aid. In fact, the College is spending more on financial aid this year than at any point in its history. President Solnick reminded faculty and staff that we are not at liberty to discuss the details of individual students' financial situations and asked employees to refer students reporting financial concerns to the Financial Aid office or to Associate Dean of Academic Affairs Carol Howard.
* * *
President Solnick then discussed priorities and initiatives for the coming academic year. He noted that despite the pressures of a tight budget and SACSCOC reaffirmation, the College was poised to tackle a number of issues that are crucial to our future.
Cabinet-Level Priorities
At its retreat on August 7, the Cabinet reviewed the seven goals identified as institutional priorities for 2013-15, all flowing from the College's Strategic Plan:
- Enhance the Triad across the College
- Raise the national profile of the College
- Sustain a campuswide conversation about diversity and implement programs to increase campus diversity along multiple dimensions
- With new resources, develop an ambitious set of new goals for environmental sustainability and resiliency for the College
- Develop and implement a plan for financial sustainability, short- and long-term
- Achieve measurable increases in student recruitment and retention
- Successfully complete the 10-year SACSCOC reaffirmation process
Rather than revisit this list of goals, the Cabinet decided to recommend to the Trustees that we preserve them for 2014-16 and focus on one of them – diversity – as a major, crosscutting priority for the College during the coming year. The President noted that increasing diversity on campus supports many of our other institutional goals and values: 1) It is a core value to College's mission and history; 2) It is essential for building a successful recruitment and retention program; 3) It delivers well-documented pedagogical benefits; and 4) It underscores our commitment to SACSCOC to support the QEP as a key learning enhancement priority for the College.
Strategic Investment Fund (SIF)
The President noted that this is a key year for two ongoing initiatives funded by the Strategic Investment Fund (created by the Trustees' decision to elevate the payout from endowment from 5% to 7% for three years). First, the ERP system (i.e., Aptron replacement) will proceed through vendor selection to system design and some early implementation. Second, the Art & Science research will see several reports to campus constituencies during the year as new data are analyzed. The reports generated will also inform new marketing and messaging for the College to align and be more competitive with the student market.
Schedule and Calendar Task Force
Over the last 18 months, a student/faculty/staff working group has been examining our weekly and semester schedule templates and collecting data from peer schools and from the campus community. At the end of last semester, the task force produced a comprehensive report that included three alternative scenarios. The Cabinet has reviewed these scenarios; in the coming semester, the four Deans (Triad Deans and Dean of Students) will facilitate a campuswide discussion about schedule reform. Among the goals of any new plan would be the following: increasing the flexibility for classes and crews (work and service) to be able to meet for longer or shorter blocks of time, as dictated by the needs of the activity; creating an exam week for semester-length classes; eliminating the confusing alternating Friday weekly schedule; creating a uniform lunch period that would facilitate scheduling speakers, meetings and brown-bag symposia; and increasing the accessibility of campus offices and services.
Our Governance System
At its retreat, the Cabinet also considered the vulnerabilities faced by the College as a result of vaguely defined policies and procedures across a wide range of operational areas. The President noted that poorly developed policies complicate the lives of every College employee, depriving us of the benefit of past experience every time we make a decision. He discussed what a proper comprehensive policy manual for the College might look like, and how we might begin to define the appropriate levels of authority for approving different components of such a resource. He challenged Forum (and Student Caucus) to partner with the administration in the coming year to address and resolve the bottlenecks in our governance structures that have created confusion about how to move forward with policy reforms. Improving communication, fostering dialogue and using committees effectively will be priorities in this process.
* * *
President Solnick concluded by acknowledging that the College is dealing with an ambitious agenda of change, and that in any situation like this, as we work toward long-term strengthening, some upheaval is unavoidable. He committed the administration to continuing its efforts to increase transparency – through use of task forces, advisory groups and updates – and repeated his call for the existing community governance structures to try to create more spaces for both dissemination of information and dialogue within the community. He noted that not all decisions will achieve consensus, but that he hoped to offer everyone the opportunity for participation in the process and he urged them to participate. He reminded the faculty and staff that our ultimate goal is to serve our students and to be recognized as a national innovator in how the liberal arts model can stretch and grow in higher education.
After his presentation, President Solnick took questions on fundraising, communication, sustainability initiatives and deferred maintenance from community members.

DuPont Pioneer identifies optimum economic plant populations
Whether corn prices are high or low, growers can maximize their income by selecting the optimum plant population for their acres.
With a new corn yield world record of 454.98 bushels per acre set in 2013, growers who plant elite hybrids understand the genetic yield potential is built into their seed. Steve Butzen, DuPont Pioneer agronomy information manager, says the key decision at planting time is to put the right number of seeds in the ground to capitalize on each farm's historical yield potential.
To identify population targets, each year DuPont Pioneer scientists evaluate corn plant population responses in research trials that span the Corn Belt. Corn plant population studies test for complex genetics x environment x management (G x E x M) interactions. Researchers target representative environments based on maturity zone, expected yield, specific stresses (drought, pest pressure, high residue, early planting) and other unique location characteristics that could result in repeatable hybrid x population responses.
click image to zoom In these studies, the seeding rate that generated the most income ranged from about 27,000 seeds per acre for locations yielding less than 130 bushels per acre to about 38,300 seeds per acre for locations yielding over 250 bushels per acre. In the major corn-producing states of Iowa, Illinois and Minnesota, well over 50 percent of acres are planted with over 33,000 seeds per acre, generally due to more productive soils.
DuPont Pioneer agronomists recommend planting five percent more seeds than the target population to account for germination and seedling losses. Growers also may want to boost target seeding rates by an additional five percent when planting in extreme environments like high-residue fields and cold, wet soils. In areas with perennial drought stress, seeding rate targets are lower.

Crash shuts down I-70 near Missouri River Bridge
Updated On: Nov 04 2013 04:25:08 PM CST
Several accidents prompted the closure of Interstate 70 westbound near the Missouri River Bridge Monday morning.
The accidents included a tractor trailer that jack-knifed and a car that slammed into the back of a truck.
According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, Joshuah Hopson, 22, crashed into the rear of a tractor trailer that had stopped for an earlier accident.
Hopson was transported to University Hospital with minor injuries. The driver of the tractor trailer was not injured.
Both westbound lanes past exit 121 were closed around 8 a.m., but the lanes were reopened around 11:40 a.m.
During the closure, traffic was detoured to U.S. 40., which caused backups on the highway.

Fencing at the first modern Olympic Games, held in Athens in
1896. Two hundred forty one athletes participated, which is a less than half of
the 2012 U.S. delegation currently on their way to London. Fourteen nations
participated in the event, which lasted only nine days but was hailed as the
most successful international sporting event ever.
The Games of the XXX Olympiad will last 17 days. More
than 200 countries are sending roughly 10,500 athletes to compete in over 300
sports. London is spending more than £9 billion in preparation for the Games.
In 1968, hurdler Norma Enriqueta Basilio of Mexico became
the first woman to light the Olympic cauldron flame during the Mexico City
games. To date, only seven women have done so.
This year, the Olympic torch was lit by an actress dressed
as a high priestess in an elaborate ceremony held inside the Temple of Hera,
which stands on the ruins of the home of the ancient Olympic Games. Talk about a reenactment!
This photo, taken before the 1932 Summer Games in Los
Angeles, shows three-time gold medalist Helene Madison teaching four girls how
to swim. During her career, she broke
more than a dozen world records.
During the last Summer Olympic Games, swimmer Natalie
Coughlin became the first American woman to win six medals in a single
Olympics. This year, she returns to the Games in the 4x100-meter freestyle
relay, an event in which she (and Helene Madison, in 1932) won gold four years
Women archers remove arrows from targets at the 1908 Olympic
Games, held in London. Twenty-two sports were offered, including jeu de paume,
or what we now know as tennis, and tug of war.
Veteran Olympian Allison Williamson of the U.K. wields her bow
in the 2008 Beijing Games. She is the
first British archer to win an Olympic medal since 1908—the year of the previous
photo in this slideshow. This year's London Games will be her sixth Olympic
Fanny Blankers-Koen of the Netherlands won four gold medals
in the 1948 Games in London. And when
she won those medals, she was a 30-year-old mother of two tots. Folks called
her "the Flying Housewife."
Lolo Jones came into the 2008 Beijing games a favorite to
win the 100-meter hurdles. In the final, she was pulling away from the pack when
she tripped. She finished out of the medals in 7th place, but returns to
the Games this year in the same event.

"I am the owner of this modest house. My name would mean nothing to you; besides, it's of little significance. What's in a name? I could give you a dozen. But instead let me tell you my profession. I am a judge. And, indeed, tonight I will be your judge."
What a showman, Razziel said to himself, still unaware that the nightmare was beginning. How subtle this fellow is. And crafty. In putting on this performance for us, he's trying to make us forget the danger we have just escaped and help to pass the time while we wait. Only later did he realize that the real source of danger was this character himself. At this moment he seemed overly amiable and welcoming, eager to win the confidence and gratitude of his guests, which they were fully disposed to accord him.
"Please be so kind as to listen to me carefully. This little house is not exactly paradise; it does not allow me to offer you bedrooms. These are already occupied by my staff. You will be meeting my chief assistant shortly. His correct name is–oh, forget it. As he's not very tall, he prefers to be called the 'Little One,' or, as he's not very handsome, you could call him the 'Hunchback' because he's–"
"Fine. We get the picture," the young woman interrupted, laughing. "If you're not careful he might sue you for assault on his dignity."
The Judge glanced at her reprovingly. "Interrupting a judge can be a serious offense."
"Or an enjoyable sin," intervened the elegant man.
"Oh, well, sins. I know a thing or two about them," said the young woman.
The Judge ignored these remarks. "This room is heated by two electric radiators, which my assistant can regulate from outside. If you are too hot or too cold, let us know. The bathroom is behind me–the narrow door there, you see? Does anyone need . . . ?"
No volunteers. In fact, Razziel would have liked to make a visit, but it was not urgent.
"When we have completed our preliminaries, an interesting task awaits us," resumed the Judge, rubbing his hands as if to warm them. "You will see. I have everything ready: pens, notebooks . . . and even some good strong tea–or is there anyone among you who would prefer coffee? I have that too. I have all you need. While you are in my house you will have nothing to complain of." A silence. "Afterward–well, afterward is another story."
The room was pleasant, furnished with simplicity: chairs around a circular table, a sofa, dictionaries in a corner on the floor. The dandy was the first of the men to remove his overcoat, which earned him mildly ironic congratulations from the Judge: "Well done, sir. I can see you make yourself at home wherever you go."
The Judge, in his turn, removed his heavy fur-lined cape, that of a shepherd or mountain dweller. Razziel was expecting to see the man casually dressed. But he was dressed in a dark gray suit, white shirt, navy-blue tie. Very smart. As if he had just come from a dinner in town. In an indefinable way he compelled respect. Everything he said and did was calculated. If Razziel, disconcerted by the fixity of his stare, had had to guess his profession or vocation, he would have opted for undertaker in a superior funeral parlor, Protestant minister, or professor of canon law.
"So. Please be seated. Look, take this chair, it's quite comfortable. They all are. And you, madam, that one over there. You other gentlemen, take any chair. You must be exhausted. I shall remain standing."
He waited for everyone to be seated before continuing.
"Everything all right?"
Yes, everything was all right.
"If anyone wishes to change places I have no objection."
No, no one wanted to do so.
"Good. In that case, let us begin. You know who I am–that is to say, I have disclosed my profession to you. Now it is your turn. After all, we are going to spend this long night together, and perhaps others too. It's only natural, don't you agree, for all of us to introduce ourselves?"
Yes, they agreed. Oddly enough, the Judge was right. The five survivors did not know one another. Thrown together by chance, first in the same airplane, now in this place, why should they not explain their reasons for traveling? Five lives, five stories had come together in a strange convergence. After all, any one of the Judge's "guests" could have been elsewhere; any one of them could have changed schedules or arrived too late for boarding.
"To begin with," the Judge continued, starting to pace around the table, "let us limit ourselves to basic biographi- cal details: surname and forename, profession, place of birth, marital status, purpose of travel. Imagine you're checking in at a hotel. Making a passport or visa application. So? Who will speak first?"
The five visitors stared at him, bewildered: Was he serious? He guessed what they were thinking and added, "Let us say that this is a game, a parlor game that . . . that later, if heaven wills it, might become seriously interesting."
His "guests" were beginning to show irritation: What had they walked into? Who did he think he was, this apprentice demagogue, so abusing the situation as to make them talk about their private lives? Who authorized him to give orders? The young woman was the first to pull herself together.

This was excellent! I'm always on the look out for new smoothie recipes, and this one is definitely a keeper. However, I'm not sure I ended up making the same recipe at all. :) I did use an apple and an acorn squash to make a smoothie, but the rest was completely different. First, I didn't have any apple juice so I used 1 cup of unsweetened apple sauce instead 1/4 cup of water to thin it out a little. Second, I didn't have fresh ginger on hand, but I do love all of the "fall" spices and I typically use all of them when I use any of them so I used approximately 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp ginger, 1/2 tsp allspice, 1/4 tsp clove, and a dash of nutmeg.people found this review Helpful.

This was delicious! What a cool way to get squash into a picky person! I used apple cider rather than juice and added a handful of ice cubes. The ice made it a little thinner and reduced the calories even more. This is a great treat while on a diet! Almost like dessert in a glass. The ginger makes this very refreshing! Made this up and kept half in the refrigerator for the next day. Kept fine but I did need to shake it really well. Thanks for a delicious and easy healthy recipe!people found this review Helpful.

Comments Thread For: Joseph Agbeko Faces Luis Melendez For IBO Title
Former IBF bantamweight champion Joseph Agbeko (28-4, 22KOs), 32-years-old, will return on February 22nd in his native Ghana, facing Luis Melendez (34-8-1, 25KOs) for the vacant title of the International Boxing Organization.
Agbeko broke away from promoter Don King and is now a free agent. The promotional troubles kept him away from the ring since a decision loss to Abner Mares in December 2011.

Also, agree with all the votes for dry hopping.
That said, you don't add more hops for FWH. Instead you shift a percentage of hops from your other additions to FWH. So, you could still move a 1/4 oz of your flavor hops and a 1/4 oz of your aroma hops to FWH, if you wanted to give it a go.
FWH with the magnum.
It will be great in an unexplainable way.
Fermenting - Chocolate Porter
Serving - Tits-Up IIPA, Coffee Stout, Oak Aged IIPA
On Deck - Centennial Blonde, Rye IPA, Coffee Stout
my bar build - http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/base...-build-317745/
I love FWH.
My practice for almost all hoppy beers is to FWH in place of the 60 min addition. I don't adjust the others. I know that's contrary to received wisdom, but I've done six FWH batches in the last three months, and in every case it gives me a much more subtle, sneaky-starting bitterness that becomes more pronounced as the seconds pass. I think it's sublime!!
What is the theory behind FWH? How is this going to benefit the beer beyond adding a few more IBUs from being in the wort for longer?
+1 for switching the 60 min addition to fwh. Just put it in with the first runnings and leave it through the boil. Its a slight bump in ibus, but you will get more flavor out of the magnum. The bitterness is also smoother.
I guess its still a mystery exactly what happens during fwh, but ive done some beers with just a fwh bittering addition and they taste like i added some late addition hops.
I too love FWH'ing with Magnum. Assuming those 4 oz. are your total supply, I might suggest:
0.5 oz. Magnum FWH
0.5 oz. Magnum 60 min
0.5 oz. Falconer's Flight 30 min
0.5 oz. Falconer's Flight 10 min
0.5 oz. Cascade 5 min
0.5 oz. Cascade 0 min
1.0 oz. Cascade Dry hop
If you could add another ounce of Falconer's split half between 0 min and Dry hop, that would be even better!
I recently did the following for a 68 IBU Red IPA that came out quite nice:
0.63 oz. Magnum 12.1% FWH
0.63 oz. Magnum 12.1% 60 min.
0.50 oz. Simcoe 12.2% 30 min.
1.00 oz. Cascade 5.4% 10 min.
1.00 oz. Cascade 5.4% 5 min.
0.50 oz. Cascade 5.4% 0 min.
0.50 oz. Simcoe 12.2% 0 min.
0.50 oz. Amarillo 7.5% 0 min.
1.00 oz. Amarillo 7.5% Dry Hop
1.00 oz. Cascade 5.4% Dry Hop
1.00 oz. Simcoe 12.2% Dry Hop
