Let's Tackle It Together: Closet Clutter
So it's been ages since we first introduced (and then seemingly forgot) a two-post feature where we invite you to tackle a house project right along with us. Last July it was cleaning out our garages, and this time we're turning our attention to our closets.
Call it nesting. Call it the spring cleaning bug arriving a bit early. Call it whatever you want, but Sherry and I recently got the urge to purge. With the bean arriving in T-minus 10-ish weeks (and loot from baby showers headed our way even sooner) now's the perfect time for us to donate/toss long forgotten items of clothing and unnecessary doodads that are taking up precious real estate in our closets- and better organize everything else that makes the cut. Plus, my closet has become quite a half-folded mess lately (we men only fold so much…):
So we're giving in to that urge this weekend, and inviting you to join us. Well, not literally at our house, but to do the same thing in your own home. You get the idea.
And in case you think you're off the hook because your clothes are perfectly pressed and sorted by color, we'd gonna tackle some other closets this weekend too. Like our hall closet that stores all sorts of memories along with a growing collection of "emergency" gift bags and boxes (nobody needs that many).
Plus, those bamboo blinds that conveniently cover the shelves over our laundry nook?
Um yeah… there's a reason we conceal this mish-mash of tools, luggage, wrapping paper and what I can only imagine is a lot of dust too…
So now that our less organized nooks and crannies are out there for all to see, we've given ourselves a kick in the pants to make it better by Monday. (Do I get 500 bonus points for using nooks, crannies, and pants all in one sentence?). So who's with us? What could use some purging / re-organizing at your house this weekend? Whether it's a junk drawer or an entire floor, we're here to virtually rally your troops and encourage you to take it on. Not only will you gain the satisfaction of a cleaner and more organized place to live, but you'll actually earn extra square footage (for future storage, or just to allow your house to breathe again). And the self satisfaction of a job well done is pretty nice too (we're fans of rewarding ourselves with ice cream). We promise to post our "results" next week along with the process that we used to clean house- and we can't wait to hear how it goes for all of you too. Good luck! And good riddance to all that closet clutter.

I'll definitely be joining you guys! I have quite a bit of spring fever already, and my closets really need some organization. Maybe I'll do the little storage locker (kind of like a closet, and definitely full of junk that needs to be cleaned out) and at least one of our apartment closets.
I am SO happy to see your cluttered laundry nook. Seriously, you have no idea.
Well, we are a couple weeks ahead of you all! We rolled up our sleeves and took on our studio/office closet 2 weekends ago. It felt so good to finally get it all organized! We whipped out many plastic bins and our handy label maker, and now are ridiculously and amazingly organized to be artsy in there! Tomorrow, we do the final step and take the pile of donations to our local thrift store. Good luck with yours!
It's nice to see that not every square inch of your house is perfect. :) Makes me feel a little better about my cluttered closets. I accept the challenge!
I'll be joining you guys for sure this weekend, and pretty much every weekend from now on! Since we aren't able to sell our house, I want to make the most of the space we've got and I cannot WAIT to start clearing things out.
Project #1 on the list this weekend is making a tiny "mudroom" out of our kitchen coat closet – my dog broke the door off years ago (trying to get to the trash!) and it's been an open storage nightmare. Looking forward to purging coats and bags and soda and making a pretty space!
I love this! This morning while getting dressed, I actually said out loud, "wow, I need to clean this closet…" Thanks for the extra inspiration!
How positively providential! I started purging items from my overstuffed clothes closet last night (motivated by a recent Oprah episode on de-cluttering) and my resolve was waning, but you've inspired me to keep going and get rid of some of this stuff. I just hope my local Goodwill is prepared to handle the intake.
And thanks for posting pics of your hall closet and laundry nook. Your place always looks so pristine, it's nice to know you have some clutter hiding here and there.
Believe it or not, you guys already inspired me to do just this…last weekend! I got rid of a couple bags of old clothes and shoes and rearranged things in my closet to allow for my hamper and a couple plastic drawers so I could finally add a chair for reading, etc. in our bedroom (as doing anything in bed tends to only result in sleeping). So thanks for the inspiration!
Wow! What a relief to see that you guys actually have some "mess" …not after this weekend though! My hubs and I have planned a whole weekend of organizing so we'll be with you in spirit. Happy Spring Cleaning!
I have just one question.. and I may have missed this from a previous post, but I love the idea of having drawers at the bottom of your closet to maximize the space, but where do you keep all of your shoes??
That's already on my agenda for the weekend! I'm also getting rid of 50 things in March. Head on over to my blog to check it out and partake in the fun!
Not to get too revved up i'm going to tackle the ridonculous pile o' papers that my son brings home from K. Sheesh…seriously, I didn't have that many papers in college and this kid brings them home (sometimes two or three or more) everyday! So i'll tackle the stack and feel accomplished after doing so! Thanks for the push…can't wait to feel the inspiration of your afters next week. Have a great weekend!
I will definitely be joining you this weekend! We have a ton of extra storage space in our new house so it is tempting to just stick things in the closets of rooms we don't use, but it feels so good to get rid of things you don't use or need!
We are nesting this weekend too! We have just 4 weeks to go until our first baby arrives and its starting to freak me out! So I hear you loud & clear on the purge-fest. Have fun! (I'm sure I'll be hitting Coldstone as a reward..)
I'll be joining you. I'm moving across the country in 3 weeks, so it's time for me to PURGE!!!
Okay. I have to say, it's a relief to find out that there are places in your house that get cluttered… I was feeling like an underachiever because I can never seem to keep everything as neat and tidy around my house as the two of you. I have found that by putting glass front doors on my wardrobe all of my clothes are always neatly folded and my shoes and accessories always in their proper place… that's about the only closet in the house that stays that way. I'm excited to join you in the challenge to get the clutter gone. :)
Please come declutter my closet. It is a disaster!
tooo funny!! i just had a pep-talk at the beginning of the week with my husband saying that this weekend (and the next 2 weekends!) are going to be devoted to cleaning out our closets, finishing up a huge painting project AND getting ready to revamp the office, so that needs sorted through as well! good luck to you guys and your spring cleaning!!!
Thank you for showing us that your closets look like ours!!! Thank goodness!
Totally going to be joining right along! I am about the same due date as you, Sherry (I have about 7 weeks left, and snow is finally melting…so the nesting/spring cleaning urge is bombarding our household! I think I'm driving the hubs a bit insane. "One thing at a time" he keeps telling me….so this week it shall be closet clutter! Fab!
This couldn't have come at a more perfect time! On a normal trip to Target yesterday, I bought some baskets for our coat closet to mask the insane amount of hats, gloves, leashes, and other winter gear that makes its home in there. The small change inspired me to get the rest of our place truly organized! Can't wait to see how your project goes …
We just started to tackle the "largest closet in our apartment" – the cellar!
So far I filled 3 large Ikea bags with old books and magazines within 2 hours – what a great feeling!
Time to go on this weekend!
YAY!! I'm so glad you guys posted this. I decided just yesterday that I needed to clean out my side of the closet. I have way too many clothes and the husband said before I go buying anymore I need to get rid of some first. Plus our foyer closet is a disaster. Good luck cleaning!!
I will be joining your ranks too. I have two closets that are in need of some TLC.
I have been a purging fool for the last week–ever since we found out we are moving from Dayton, OH all the way to Southern CA!!! Nothing like having to move our stuff across the country to motivate me to do a major purge!!! Our son just turned 4 and I have enough baby stuff for 10 babies! Thankfully my sis is going to store it here in Ohio(hopefully she will need it soon!).
My husband and I have been married 13 years and have lived in our house for 10, so we are overdue for a major overhaul!
To Renae,
As a former Kindergarten teacher I would recommend to parents that at the end of each week they select with their student two of their favorite pieces of work from that week. You would then scan those and make a shutterfly (or your internet photo site of choice) book. If you are super crafty you could have the student scrapbook them. By the end of their kindergarten year you have a small book with all of their school treasures and you don't feel guilty throwing away their finger-painted treasures.
Hope that helps.
I actually just did this last weekend. I tackled our junk draw in the kitchen and our very small pantry that is in our hallway. I'll try to remember to take pictures. It was very rewarding and everytime I one either one I smile now because everything is nice and neat. :-D
Hi Youngsters,
I'm definitely up to the challenge this weekend – and every weekend lately. I'm due just two weeks before you Sherry and I've had a crazy nesting bug. Thanks for the extra inspiration. It makes me feel good to know that although your rancher looks fabulous, there are still some areas that need a bit of help.
I am in. My closets are out of control. So glad you guys have some mess too.
With the same 10ish weeks before my baby is due, I have defiantly heard the "tick-tock, tick-tock" to get little projects done. I'm going to try to tackle the closets and dressers today. I also need to organize all my seasonal decor and office nick-nacks. Nesting is hitting hard, but I also love to organize. Organizing clothes by color and shape is just so satisfying to me!
I broke the news to my husband that I want to re-do the guest bathroom before the baby comes…we'll see if he gives in to my nesting needs :).
Thanks for the extra inspiration to get organized! And good luck!
I definitely need to purge my junk drawers (yes, there are 2), in the kitchen!
On an unrelated note, I wanted to thank you two for posting so much detail in your bathroom tiling project…it's been a great help to us as we tackled tiling our bathroom (we finally finished it off with the grout last night). It was our first time tiling and I'm sure I would have freaked out with the little obstacles we ran into if I hadn't read your posts on what to do! That dry paper towel trick is like magic! Unfortunately, we made the same grout mistake with buying a "mocha" grout from Menards (which looked nothing like the package showed after it was mixed). Thankfully, we didn't use it because we found out it was sanded grout after we mixed it up- the package didn't say, and the Menards associate said it was unsanded. So we blindly followed you and bought the mocha grout from The Tile Shop and I'm soooo happy we did! What a perfect color!
Anyway, aside from rambling and back to the point, thanks for your detailed posts! You two are such an inspiration!
Oh my goodness you guys, this is so super good timing! The hubs and I just went on our annual trip to the outlet mall to snag a couple of new clothing essentials, and decided when we got them home, that they were not going into our closet until we went in there and completely organized, donated and tossed out all the non-used clothing and other "things" taking up precious space. So, as with you, we will be spending our weekend cleaning and purging! I can't wait to see your results! It's always fun to know when someone else is enduring the same fun tasks, even if it is across the country!
Someone already said it but this challenge of sorts comes at the absolutely most perfect time. We just had the pitch of our roof raised (raise the roof!? – awful!) because of some massive leaks and thus also had some huge patches of wet ceiling in our master bedroom fixed (it was much too big of a job for us amateur DIYers so we took your advice and called in the pros)… so as you can imagine, our house is in a bit of disrepair but the spring cleaning bug has definitely bit me so tackling the closets this weekend while ceilings and walls get repainted (thank you husband!) will be just what the doctor ordered.
Oh, I'll definitely be joining you this weekend! It's finally sunny out and the spring fever hit me HARD. I've been cleaning the house like a mad woman… :)
We just de-cluttered closets! We had an open house on our place, so that was reason enough! We bought canvas zip boxes from the Container Store, and it really made our closets look put together and modern. Here's the link to the boxes:
Purging is so liberating! I have been purging for a couple of weeks. Another blog I follow shared a "40 bags in 40 days" idea and I committed to doing the same. Good luck everyone!
#1 on our to-do list is to clean out the closet and dresser in our guest room. It has been our place to stash stuff that we need to donate. Since we're moving our son to that room to make room for baby #2, it's time to get that stuff outta the house!
We are overdue for a complete closet makeover, thanks for the inspiration to get going! we live in a 1950's split level, and I'm amazed how shallow the closets are. Did no one have broad shoulders in the 50's? Men's suit jackets are smooshed against the sliding doors.
I'd love to do something similar to your beside-the-bed closets. Why-oh-why is there no Ikea in Columbus, OH?!
This is my weekend project also. We live in a one room studio apt with one small closet we share, and there's simply never enough room for everything. I couldn't fall asleep after waking up at 3am, so I got a head start this morning.
I just sat down, to take a break from closet organizing, so count me in…!
Guess I'm ahead of the curve for once! My husband and I spent three weekends in February working on our closets. This whole thing was spurred by a gift card that needed to get used up and the best thing I could come up with was a closet organizing system. :) I know, I need professional help. Then, of course, since we'd done one and it was so lovely, I just couldn't stop. Back to the store I went for more closet organizers!
We cleared out, fixed drywall, painted and installed the organizers in one closet per weekend and I couldn't be happier. Everything is in its place, we have tons of extra room and I have a huge pile of stuff to donate. Yay decluttering! I can't wait to see what you guys do! (Maybe I'll work on the bathroom cabinets as a solidarity thing. Those could use a bit of sprucing.)
I am so in. I have 2 closets that need some love. But I am counting the trunk of my car as a 3rd.
Thanks for letting us know that you have clutter too :) You guys are human after all. What great motivation for all of us! I definitely have some closets [and a few cabinets] that need to be tackled. This is just the motivation I need. Can't wait to see how you guys get everything organized. Good luck :)
It must be a nesting thing…I am also due in 10ish weeks and I completely reorganized every closet in our house a few weeks ago! I also organized under bed storage and our Den. Every room in our house is getting deep cleaned and organized! I think the baby has taken over already!
I'm in with both feet! Weeks ago I bought a stack of those really thin flocked clothes hangers that promise to give you more closet space. I'm finally going to transfer my clothes to them and see what happens! Good luck and be sure to enjoy your ice cream!
Oooh I definitely need more help in this area!
Also…in regards to your post the other day about stain-fighting…do you {or any readers} have any tips on removing dish soap from carpet? Our somehow spilled and now there is a large {baseball sized} yellow/green splotch on our brand new carpet! :(
I cleaned out our hall closet and pantry last week (and just posted photos) and I'm planning on tackling my bedroom closet, my daughter's closet and maybe the office if I'm really feeling that urge to purge. Maybe we could start a group to post everyone's before and afters?
Funny you post this because those were my exact plans this weekend! I've held back the last two weekends because I was anticipating a downfall of snow one last time (its a MN thing) before spring arrives, but I can no longer resist the urge to purge! :)Its definitely spring fever. My plans this weekend: to clean out our closet, the porch, and the garage! I'll be sure to take before and after photos!
I have to say, it's refreshing to see that not every single inch of your house is perfectly coiffed :) Closets are my nemesis! WHERE does that stuff come from??!!
I'll be there with you guys! Just last night, (perhaps in one of those random, mad fits) I started pulling clothes from my closet that I haven't worn in a year. They all got tossed in a "For Goodwill" bag, and boy, I am so relieved.
The hubs and I usually do this at least twice a year, but with the winter blues and spring wishes, we've been in sort of a funk about getting off our duffs and just doing it. Here's hoping my man follows my lead this weekend…

I'm probably the only one, but I would like to see The Doctor as a female. Not permanently ('cuz The Doctor is just supposed to be male in my head), but perhaps for an episode or two. I think it would be hilarious.

Alabama's Matthew Mayfield just released a new single, "Desire," complete with a new music video. As a big fan of Mayfield's I was definitely expecting a lot from the new single, and luckily I wasn't disappointed in the slightest. As

A friend sent me Flatsound's album, Sleep, to check out on Spotify and it's pretty amazing. The first half of the album sees Mitch Welling focusing on his singer-songwriter while the second half sees him experimenting with ambient sounds and music. The first half is definitely more my go-to but the latter half is great for sleeping. The acoustic guitar is on point, as are the lyrics which are relate-able in the same way that Matt Nathanson's lyrics or Richward Edwards' lyrics are. My two favorite tracks are "Don't Call Me At All" and "Sleep."
I listened to a ton of Mighty Oaks and Aunt Martha today on my drive up from D.C. and since I've already posted something by the former, I figured it was time to throw something out there by New England based singer-songwriter Tim Noyes aka Aunt Martha. Noyes has been making a name for himself with the band since 2008 but really took off after his Bonaroo performances and the covers of fellow Bonaroo artists he recorded and posted to Youtube prior to said shows. Here though, we've got "Nassau" off the Norway, ME album. Check it out.
This find comes straight from two of my favorite falcons, and founding members of the #JazzyFizzle Crew. They know who they are. And now thanks to them, I know Hartford, CT based indie-folk band, Bronze Radio Return. It's hard to pin down their sound to one genre. They are folky but with a strong indie-rock feel. They are indie rock with more than just a little singer-songwriter thrown in. I guess it makes sense though when you see how the band cites their own influences:
"We each offer a different spin on the music we play," offers Henderson, who professes great appreciation for Ben Harper and Muddy Waters. "That's really how we found our unique sound. Everyone has a voice and adds to it." Bandmates Struble and Griffith cite Stevie Wonder, while Tanen is moved by the modern-day Stone Temple Pilots' tight bass groove. CCR and Stevie Ray Vaughn light Fetkowitz's fire, and Warner rounds it out with a push from Tom Petty."
Here they are with a live performance of "Down There."
Check out Hudson Taylor, two singer-songwriter brothers from Dublin. The duo, who first came to fame via their Youtube channel as Harry & Alfie performing covers and original songs, have since moved to London to pursue music full time, which is good news given their solid lyrics and Marcus Mumford level strumming.
It's the little things you miss when you're 1900 miles away for Medical School in the Caribbean. I've had my Fender American Special HSS Strat a.k.a. "Leroy" and my Martin LXM Little Martin a.k.a. "The Imp" with me here in Dominica for the past 7 months which has been awesome and kept me sane, but my brain could totally go for some decompression via overdriven Les Paul cranked to 10 right about now…Only 40 more days until finals and my flight home. When I get home my plan is to add a Greven 50's-style tortoise pickguard—and possibly undersaddle pickup—to The Imp. Then I'm going to strip out the guts & neck from Mary and put them into the new string-through Alder Tele body I'll be finishing from scratch in nitro Butterscotch Blonde. #Luthiering1011. "Jules Winnfield" - Epi LP Standard 2. Epi Pro/FX LP w/ Floyd Rose 3. "Fionna" - Epi LP Special II (GFS Mean 90/Dream 180)4. "Mary" - Squire Affinity Tele (project guitar) 5. "Leroy" - Fender American Special HSS Strat6. "Martin" - Martin DCME 7. "Stella" - Martin D12X1 8. "The Imp" - Martin LXM 9. "Taylor" -Taylor 110E 10. "Alvy" - Alvarez RD8 11. Lanikai LU-11 Ukulele
More singer-songwriter tunes, this time around from Howie Day. I remember seeing Howie a few years back at a solo acoustic show and being blown away by his use of the Line 6 DL4 Digital Delay Loop Pedal. He's still one of the best I've seen with it. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, check out this video at around 4:30 in. If only the DL4 wasn't $250…

In an effort to break out of my guitar playing plateau I went back and tried listening to songwriters from a writing perspective. After years of not "getting it," Bob Dylan finally clicked for me. I have been listening to Dylan nonstop since last night.
Krystal & Adam - Open Mic pt 2 from Adam Beaton on Vimeo.
Here's a clip my buddy Richard shot of me and Krystal performing at DeChamps' open mic night on one of our rare nights off from studying. We started the set with an 80s, 90s, 2000s medley that included Journey, Backstreet Boys, and Adele (listen here), before going into an acoustic version of Beyonce's "Single Ladies" and then ending with T-Pain's "Buy You a Drank." I'm playing the Martin LXM "Little Martin" sent to me by Dick Boak, head of Artist Relations and PR for C.F. Martin & Co. with an "artist discount" since I wasn't able to take my full sized Martin dreadnaught with me to medical school. If you haven't heard that story, it's pretty awesome.

This song will never get old. Here's Dave Matthews with a solo performance of "Crash Into Me" from the Abbey Road studio in London. Crash is probably my favorite song of all time as well as the leading cause for my love of the acoustic guitar.

Zach Williams is most definitely the next big singer-songwriter. Hailing from Georgia, Williams has been making a name for himself since 2004 with his soulful, penetrating vocals and honest lyrics. Here's "Fears" off his album Story Time. You're welcome for this one.

For the second time in two days I've heard this song playing while out and about and both times I reacted with the same way: looking around thinking "Are you people not hearing this? Are you deaf? It's DAVE!!!"

World Bank stakes leadership position by announcing Open Access Policy and launching Open Knowledge Repository under Creative Commons
The World Bank has announced a new Open Access Policy! Effective July 1, 2012, the Open Access Policy requires that all research outputs and knowledge products published by the Bank be licensed Creative Commons Attribution license (CC BY) as a default. Today, as the first phase of this policy is unfolded, the Bank launched a new Open Knowledge Repository with more than 2,000 books, articles, reports and research papers under CC BY. President of the World Bank Group, Robert B. Zoellick, said in the press release:
"Knowledge is power. Making our knowledge widely and readily available will empower others to come up with solutions to the world's toughest problems. Our new Open Access policy is the natural evolution for a World Bank that is opening up more and more."
CC BY is the most permissive Creative Commons license, allowing others to reuse, remix and redistribute works, even commercially, as long as attribution is given to the copyright holder. It is recommended for those seeking maximum dissemination and re-use of their materials while preserving copyright. We applaud the World Bank for its leadership and embracing this objective by incorporating CC as the framework for its Open Access Policy.
Lawrence Lessig, Board member and co-founder of Creative Commons, says,
"The World Bank is not only leading by embracing the principles of open access. But by making its works available under a CC BY license, it is encouraging the widest spread of the knowledge it is producing. This work is incredibly valuable in assuring access to knowledge universally, and not just at elite universities."
The Open Access Policy reinforces scholarship norms. The terms require that publishing embargoes are respected and research is made available under CC BY. The Bank "expects the amount of time it takes for externally published Bank content to be included in its institutional repository to diminish over time" and that the working paper versions of journal articles will be made available under CC BY without any embargo period. Additionally, the CC BY policy only applies to works published by the Bank. Works published by third party publishers will be made available in the repository under CC BY-NC-ND, with the option of CC BY should the publisher choose.
All of this content will be aggregated via the Open Knowledge Repository, which has been built with an eye toward maximizing interoperability, discoverability, and reusability by complying with Dublin Core metadata standards and the Open Archives Initiatives protocol for metadata harvesting:
"The repository will be fully interoperable with other major international repositories such as RePEc (Research Papers in Economics), SSRN and Economists Online. This means that the World Bank publishes just once in its own Open Knowledge Repository while its research is also "harvested" and made openly available through many other searchable online repositories, increasing the number of people able to find World Bank content."
Currently, the repository contains books and papers from 2009-2012 in various fields and from all around the world, including the World Development Report and two World Bank journals, the World Bank Economic Review (WBER) and the World Bank Research Observer (WBRO). The Bank will continue to add new and old content, including those works published prior to 2009, and beginning in 2012, the Bank will include links to research-related datasets.

Thanks to Creative Commons, OER university will provide free learning with formal academic credit
Creative Commons licenses are enabling an international partnership of accredited universities, colleges and polytechnics to provide free learning opportunities for students worldwide with pathways to formal academic credit. The OER university (OERu) will create a parallel learning universe for learners who cannot afford a tertiary education by offering CC-licensed courses — with the opportunity to acquire formal academic credit at greatly reduced cost when compared to full-tuition studies. The OERu will assemble courses from existing open educational resources (OER) under CC licenses, reducing the overall cost of development. It has adopted the Free Cultural Works approved licenses (CC BY and CC BY-SA) as the default for OERu courses.
OERu OL2 0 life cycles by J. Murray / CC BY
The OER Tertiary Education Network, the force behind the OERu, includes an impressive line-up of education providers, including: Athabasca University, BAOU (Gujarat's open university), SUNY Empire State College, Nelson Marlborough Institute of Technology, NorthTec, Open Polytechnic, Otago Polytechnic, Southern New Hampshire University, Thompson Rivers University, University of Canterbury, University of South Africa, University of Southern Queensland, and the University of Wollongong. BCcampus and the OER Foundation are supporting the network as non-teaching partners. These founding OERu anchor partners are accredited institutions in their respective national, provincial or state jurisdictions, which means that the OERu will be able to provide formal academic credit towards credible degrees in Africa, Asia, Oceania and North America — all using CC-licensed courses. Senior executives of the network have facilitated agile and rapid progress targeting the formal launch of the OERu operations in 2013. (More on that here.)
The OERu anchor partners have shortlisted eight university- and college-level courses to be developed as prototypes for refining the OERu delivery system:
- College Composition
- Art Appreciation and Techniques
- Regional relations in Asia and the Pacific
- A Mathematical Journey
- General and Applied Psychology
- Critical Reasoning
- Why Sustainable Practice
- Introduction to Management
Collectively, these courses — all first year courses except for Critical Reasoning, which is a 2nd year-level course in Philosophy — will carry credit towards a Bachelor of General Studies, the inaugural credential selected at the OERu meeting in November 2011. Two of the courses will be based on existing course materials under CC BY from U.S. Washington State's Open Course Library project and the Saylor Foundation.
The OER Foundation has been trailing technologies and delivery approaches of large OER courses to help inform the design and development of these prototype courses. One such course is Open Content Licensing for Educators, which was designed as a free online workshop for educators and learners to learn more about OER, copyright, and CC licenses. The course materials, also under CC BY, were developed collaboratively by volunteers from the OER Foundation, WikiEducator, the OpenCourseWare Consortium and Creative Commons, with funding support from UNESCO. In January, Open Content Licensing for Educators was conducted online with 1,067 participants from 90 different countries — demonstrating the success of a large, collaborative, and high quality OER project. The OERu model will build on successes such as these, and demonstrate how CC licenses can maximize the return on investment in education at a massive scale.
Kudos to Wayne Mackintosh and all of his colleagues at OERu. Well done!

$500 million available in Wave 2 of U.S. Department of Labor grant program for community colleges
Today, the U.S. Department of Labor announced and released a Solicitation for Grant Applications (SGA) for Wave 2 of the Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College and Career Training Grant Program (TAACCCT). Wave 2 makes available $500 million to "eligible institutions of higher education… with funds to expand and improve their ability to deliver education and career training programs that can be completed in two years or less…"
The full announcement, including the SGA, is available at http://www.doleta.gov/grants/Find_grants.cfm, where you can access it as a pdf. As with the first wave of TAACCCT funding, all educational materials created from grant funds must be released under a Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY) license. For Wave 2, the CC BY license must also be applied to modifications made to pre-existing, grantee-owned content using grant funds.
The SGA also contains requirements for accessibility ("All online and technology-enabled content and courses developed under this SGA must incorporate the principles of universal design (see http://www.cast.org/udl/)") and technical standards for digital assets ("All digital assets within online and technology-enabled courses… should be produced to maximize interoperability, exchange and reuse. In addition, all assessments and/or other content that result in a student score or grade must conform to industry-leading e-learning open standards and specifications…").
As previously mentioned, Creative Commons, along with Carnegie Mellon Open Learning Initiative, CAST, and the Washington State Board for Community and Technical Colleges, have been funded by the The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to provide free support to grantees to help them meet these grant requirements. Together, we have formed the Open Professionals Education Network (OPEN), to more effectively help grantees. For more information on OPEN and the free services we will be providing, see http://open4us.org. If you are a Wave 1 grantee, you can also sign up directly for our free services there.
The TAACCCT program supports President Obama's goal of having the highest proportion of college graduates in the world by 2020 by helping to increase the number of workers who attain degrees, certificates, and other industry-recognized credentials. Applications to the solicitation are now open for Wave 2, and are due May 24, 2012.2 Comments »
Free and unrestricted Public Sector Information: Study finds benefits outweigh costs
Governments around the world are increasingly relying on open licenses to release public sector information (PSI). A September 2011 report titled Costs and Benefits of Data Provision, prepared by John Houghton for the Australian National Data Service, examines the immediate and wider economic costs and benefits to making PSI available.
The key takeaway from the study: "the direct and measurable benefits of making PSI available free and unrestrictedly typically outweigh the costs. When one adds the longer-term benefits that we cannot fully measure, cannot even foresee, the case for open access appears to be strong."
The report offers an interesting and instructive analysis about the overarching cost-saving potential of making PSI available online for free and under open licenses (we assume the figures to represent Australian dollars):
[W]e find that the net cost to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) of making publications and statistics freely available online and adopting Creative Commons licensing was likely to have been around $3.5 million per annum at 2005-06 prices and levels of activity, but the immediate cost savings for users were likely to have been around $5 million per annum. The wider impacts in terms of additional use and uses bring substantial additional returns, with our estimates suggesting overall costs associated with free online access to ABS publications and data online and unrestrictive standard licensing of around $4.6 million per annum and measurable annualised benefits of perhaps $25 million (i.e. more than five times the costs).
The Houghton study suggests that open licensing is a key component to reducing friction in the downstream use of PSI:
It is not simply about access prices, but also about the transaction costs involved. Standardised and unrestrictive licensing, such as Creative Commons, and data standards are crucial in enabling access that is truly open (i.e. free, immediate and unrestricted) … The efficient economic solution for the dissemination of PSI is likely to be free libre and free gratis (i.e. making it freely available online and using unrestrictive licensing such as Creative Commons).
In a separate internal document noted in the report, the Australian Bureau of Statistics described the impact of adopting CC licensing. It says that CC licensing "meets public expectations with regard to open government, facilitates data sharing (including across government), allows for more timely reuse of statistics, facilitates innovation, [and] makes sense to a growing percentage of people who recognise and understand CC licence symbols and conditions."
The study urges us to try to understand and foster the unpredictable yet potentially powerful innovation that can be unleashed when PSI is made freely available online and released using unrestrictive licenses:
In the longer term, there may also be unforeseen uses and re-uses that simply cannot be accounted for, and again this may mean that the costs and benefits experienced in the early years of implementation tend to understate the longer-term advantages. Use and re-use can also have wider impacts, in terms of innovation and the development and introduction of new products, services and processes that, in turn, generate new economic economic activity, new business opportunities, better informed and potentially better government and business decisions.

Open Course Library Launches 1st 42 Courses
On Monday, the Washington State Board for Community and Technical Colleges (SBCTC) released the first 42 of the state's high-enrollment 81 Open Course Library courses. The remaining 39 courses will be finished by 2013. Funded by the Washington State Legislature and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the Open Course Library joins the global open educational resources (OER) movement, and adheres to SBCTC's open policy, which requires that all materials created through system grants be openly licensed for the public to freely use, adapt and distribute.
All courses are available under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 unported license (CC-BY).
The first 42 courses are available in multiple technical formats including:
- Common Course Cartridges and ANGEL course exports hosted on Connexions.
- Guest login to preview and copy parts of the courses:

password: ocl
- HTML via a partnership with the Saylor Foundation (most translations are still under development).
Michael Kenyon's students at Green River Community College used to pay nearly $200 for a new pre-calculus textbook. Now they pay only $20 for a book – or use it online for free. Kenyon's pre-calculus textbook (CC BY SA) was written by community college faculty David Lippman and Melonie Rasmussen, who teach at Pierce College Fort Steilacoom. "We looked at a lot of textbooks," Kenyon said. "There are some people who think this is the best book out there."
"The courses were created with the needs of Washington's college students in mind," said Tom Caswell, SBCTC Open Education Policy Associate. "And with the idea we would share the courses with the world."
Each course was developed and peer reviewed by a team of instructors, instructional designers and librarians. Use of the course materials is optional, but many faculty and departments are already moving to adopt them.
According to an informal study by the Student Public Interest Research Groups (PIRGs), the Open Course Library could save students as much as $41.6 million on textbooks annually if adopted at all of Washington's community and technical colleges. The study also estimates that the 42 faculty course developers will save students $1.26 million by using the materials during the 2011-2012 school year, which alone exceeds the $1.18 million cost of creating the 42 courses. "These savings will not only help Washington's students afford college, but clearly provide a tremendous return on the original investment," said Nicole Allen, Textbook Advocate for the Student PIRGs.
Justin Hamilton, press secretary for the U.S. Department of Education, said the Washington state effort was groundbreaking for the nation. "Lowering college costs increases a student's ability to take more courses, finish their degree on time, and enter the workforce prepared for success in a global economy. That's not just good for them, it's good for the country."
"It really is the beginning of the end of closed, expensive, proprietary commercial textbooks that are completely disconnected from today's reality," said Rep. Reuven Carlyle (D-Seattle) of Washington State's 36th District, a champion of the Open Course Library and OER. "This is a significant state investment in this era of massive budget cuts. We had little choice but to seize the opportunity of this crisis to challenge the status quo of the old-style cost models in both K-12 and higher education."4 Comments »
Blackboard to add support for CC Attribution
Blackboard, the popular Learning Management System (LMS), has announced that they will build in support for CC licensing, specifically enabling instructors the ability to publish and share their course materials under the CC Attribution (CC BY) license. From the press release,
"Support for OER enables instructors to publish and share their courses under a Creative Commons Attribution license (CC BY) so that anyone can easily preview and download the course content in Blackboard and Common Cartridge formats. The new functionality is available now for CourseSites, Blackboard's free, fully-hosted and supported cloud offering launched a year ago and now used by over 18,000 instructors from nearly 12,000 institutions in 113 countries. Similar support for OER will be available soon for Blackboard Learn."
The Chronicle of Higher Education and Inside Higher Ed also covered Blackboard's move toward openness in education. Cable Green, CC's Director of Global Learning, notes,

"The core part of any OER is an open license, and Blackboard has shown its leadership by empowering instructors to share so others can revise, reuse, remix and redistribute their courses."
$500 million awarded to first round grantees for community college career training program
Today the U.S. Department of Labor, in coordination with the Department of Education, announced the first wave of grant winners in support of "targeted training and workforce development to help economically dislocated workers who are changing careers." Today's announcement commits nearly $500 million to 32 grantees, with a $2 billion investment expected over the next 4 years.
Secretary of Labor Hilda L. Solis said in the Department's press release:
"Making it possible for unemployed Americans to return to work is a top priority of President Obama's. This initiative is about providing access to training that leads to real jobs," said Secretary Solis. "These federal grants will enable community colleges, employers and other partners to prepare job candidates, through innovative programs, for new careers in high-wage, high-skills fields, including advanced manufacturing, transportation, health care and STEM occupations."
As we mentioned in January when the program was announced, we're excited that the grant guidelines includes a requirement that where new learning materials are created using grant funds, those materials must be made available under CC BY. Creative Commons, with its partnering organizations, is positioned to provide support to grantees on open licensing, learning and course design, professional development, and adoption and use.
Congratulations to the first round winners and to the Department of Labor and Department of Education in supporting this innovative education initiative.Comments Off

Menopause Health Center
Hormone Replacement Replaced
Young Women with Hysterectomies
The experts seem to agree that there's another group of women who benefit from long-term estrogen therapy.
"It's an entirely different situation for the younger woman with a hysterectomy," Rebar says. "Most of us believe that in those situations of premature menopause, estrogen is truly being used for replacement in women who would naturally have the hormone. But there is no data."
And the Experts Disagree, Too
The NAMS panel also failed to agree on a number of things. These include:
- What is "short-term" HT? What is "long-term" HT? The only agreement on this question is that no uniform time applies to all women.
- Does HT increase the short-term risk of heart disease? It's not clear, although women who already have heart disease should not begin HT.
- How long should a woman with menopausal symptoms take HT?
- Is there a best way to stop taking HT? Some say stop abruptly, some say taper the dose.
- Does it matter whether you take continuous combined estrogen/progestin or continuous estrogen with sequential progestin/progesterone?
- Does HT enhance a woman's quality of life?
How To Talk To Your Doctor
What's a woman to do? Here's Utian's advice.
"What should a doctor say to a patient? I think it is an individualized discussion based on that person's individual profile," he says. "Does she have specific menopausal symptoms? If so, then she is a potential candidate for hormones. If she has only local vaginal symptoms, she is a candidates for local vaginal treatment. And if she is considering HT, has she had breast cancer, thromboembolism, or are there other major risk factors that indicate caution?
"The conversation should be, number one, 'Do I have a reason to take HT?' And, two, 'Am I at increased risk if I did take them?' Then the rest of the conversation should be does she understand the level of risk, the potential benefit versus the potential risk. After that, it's up to her whether or not to take hormones."

Disappearing Acts: Diazotype Process workshop
On Friday, October 24, from 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., Eric Carroll will lead a DIAZOTYPE WORKSHOP in Glen Helen Nature Preserve. To attend the workshop, all day (9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m), or part of the day either morning (9:00 a.m.- 12:00 p.m.) or afternoon (2:00 -5:00 p.m.), please RSVP your request to Jennifer Rooks Wenker, Creative Director of the Herndon Gallery at email@example.com and we will hold a place for you! The workshop will begin in the Glen Helen Building off of Corry Street and then explore the shadows beneath the forest canopy. See you there!
Utilizing the diazotype process, participants will learn how to make camera-less photographs (photograms) outside of the traditional darkroom context. Working in the Glen Helen Preserve, participants will learn how to prepare paper holders, expose the diazotype paper, and process it on-site. There will be a morning and afternoon session–each session is expected to last 3 hours. We will be working outdoors, so dress accordingly! All materials provided.
*Note that the diazotype process is fragile and processed diazotypes are still very sensitive to sunlight and water.
All events are free and open to the public.
Eric William Carroll is an artist exploring photography in all its forms. By reenacting photography's cultural and technological history, he aims to reveal the medium's elementary characteristics and metaphorical potential, as well as our expectations and desires for the art form. "I'm interested in blurring the line between nature and technology. The obsolution of older technologies is what moves the man-made closer to the realm of nature. That's what attracts me. Essentially, all of this work is about time. I'm interested in how we feel when things don't last as long as we want them. It's a strange mixture of nostalgia, sadness and beauty."
Born and raised in the Midwest, Carroll has bounced between New York and San Francisco and currently teaches at Macalester College in St. Paul, Minnesota. His work has been exhibited widely, including the New Orleans Museum of Art, the Camera Club of New York, the Museum of Contemporary Photography, and SF Camerawork. Carroll has participated in residencies with the MacDowell Colony, Rayko Photo Center and the Blacklock Nature Sanctuary, and was the winner of the 2012 Baum Award for Emerging Photographers. He is represented by Highlight Gallery in San Francisco.

Foreign Language Film Series: "Les Choristes" (2004)
Les Choristes is a 2004 French drama film directed by Christophe Barratier. Co-written by Barratier and Philippe Lopes-Curval (fr), it is an adaptation of the 1945 film A Cage of Nightingales (La Cage aux rossignols), which in turn was adapted by Noël-Noël and René Wheeler from a story by Wheeler and Georges Chaperot.
The plot involves the widely successful orchestra conductor Pierre Morhange (Jacques Perrin), who returns to France when his mother dies. He reminisces about his childhood inspirations when he and his former classmate Pépinot (Didier Flamand) read the diary of their old music teacher Clément Mathieu (Gérard Jugnot). In 1949, a young Pierre (Jean-Baptiste Maunier) is the badly behaved son of single mother Violette (Marie Bunel). He attends the boarding institution for "difficult" boys, Fond de L'Étang ("Bottom of the Pond"), presided over by strict headmaster Mr Rachin (François Berléand). New teacher Mathieu brightens up the school and assembles a choir, leading to the discovery of Pierre's musical and physical talents and a transformation in the children.

{ friday 5 to 9 p.m. The Museum of Art & History, 705 Front St., Santa Cruz. $5 general; $3 students. Details: www.santacruzmah.org }
By WALLACE BAINE
Music lovers are not generally accustomed to coming to the local art museum for their sonic fix. But on Friday, for some music fans, the Museum of Art & History in Santa Cruz may resemble the parlors of heaven.
More than 70 musicians and artists are combining their talents and enthusiasms in a crazy night of music-making called "Santa Cruz Music at the MAH."
Performances? Sure, there will be plenty of those. But the event also promises to offer workshops, lessons and other hands-on demonstrations of musical activities. If you've ever fantasized about creating a guitar out of an old shoebox, your ship has just come in.
The museum's downstairs atrium will be the central point for the performances, which will feature everything from rarefied opera to cheeky rock. Artists will take 15-minute shifts on stage, beginning with the Found Object Art Musical Instrument Band at 5 p.m. Also included will be Uke Ellington, Power Strip, the Dulcimer Girls, the UC Santa Cruz Opera Circle, Caroline Kuspa, the Raisinettes and more.
Members of the celebrated Ukulele Club of Santa Cruz will be on hand to put ukes in the hands of beginners and show them a few things to spark the uke love that seems to be consuming the area. Nina Koocher's film on the Ukulele Club, "Under the Boardwalk," will also be shown at the event.
The history element of the evening will focus on Santa Cruz County's part in the protest-music movement of the 1960s. Workshop leaders will help people write their own protest songs that will be performed at the end of the evening.
Visitors will get close-up looks at some pretty intriguing multimedia projects as well, none more interesting than the Santa Cruz Sad Song Project, which explores how music serves as a catharsis for people in grief or otherwise hurting. Santa Cruz's Rick Walker, one of the most prominent practitioners of the art of looping, will be demonstrating his art as well.
Music lessons will be available on everything from the uke to the Japanese koto to the two-stringed Albanian lute called the cifteli.
Those who lean more to the visual arts will be offered the opportunity to participate in DIY workshops in which artists at Streetlight Records will make objects d'art out of CDs, cassette tapes and other physical detritus from the musical world.
"We'll also be making shoebox guitars," said coordinator Stacey Marie Garcia of the MAH. "We'll be building them out of old shoeboxes and rubber bands."

Our PGCE programme aims to:
Our full time, one year PGCE programme in Drama will help bring your graduate expertise, skills and enthusiasm to the imaginative and practical teaching of Drama to children of all abilities from 11 to 18. It brings you towards qualifying for the 11-16 national standards for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) set by the Teaching Agency. A Plymouth University PGCE goes beyond this into Key Stage 5 (16-18 years).
Please see our detailed entry requirements for further information about entry requirements for this programme.
We are pleased to announce that in addition to the number of places that we have for 2013/14 on our PGCE Secondary, we are also working in collaboration with the Peninsula Teaching School Partnership to offer School Direct places in Cornwall. Successful applicants to these places will be able to work towards QTS only, rather than a traditional PGCE, with a strong possibility of finding employment in Cornwall, if their training is successful. For further information on these places, please visit the Peninsula Teaching School Partnership website.
Key aspects of the programme include the place of drama in arts education, the value of theatre and performance in education and links with English, citizenship and PSHE. There is also work using ICT in Drama teaching. The Faculty has a long tradition of Drama at undergraduate and postgraduate level and has access to large, fully equipped drama performance spaces to complement the programme's new learning facilities. Much subject work in this Drama PGCE develops the group's own knowledge of genres and practitioners. Theatre in education is just one aspect of school experience developed. The trainee group itself is a major source of expertise, drawing on its participants' rich knowledge and experience. Your own creative potential is recognised both through your work with pupils in schools and through practical explorations of theatre and performance within the PGCE trainee group.

Founded as a land-grant college in 1872, Virginia Tech has long implemented energy conservation as part of its facilities construction and management.
With 25,600 students, 110 graduate programs, and 60 undergraduate programs, Blacksburg, VA-based Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech) is the largest university in Virginia. One of the top research institutions in the country, Virginia Tech has a long history of putting knowledge to work. This honorable tradition is continuing in its many facilities as the school launches a comprehensive energy management program.
Founded as a land-grant college in 1872, Virginia Tech has long implemented energy conservation as part of its facilities construction and management. "We really are not beginning an energy conservation project here. We have had a long history of incorporating energy conservation; it is a part of doing business," says Bill Elvey, assistant vice president for facilities at Virginia Tech.
With 100 buildings and an airport, Virginia Tech's main campus stretches over 2,600 acres. The university also has surrounding campuses in Hampton Roads, Richmond, and Roanoke. Due to rising energy costs and the university's recent rapid growth, the school saw the need to hire a campus energy manager to act as a team leader for the development and implementation of a university-wide energy management plan.
Back in 1901, Virginia Tech had a coal-fired power plant to generate steam and power for the campus' needs. Much has changed for the university. In the last 20 years, the school has revved up its effort to save energy campus-wide and to take advantage of the U.S. Department of Energy's Institutional Conservation Program (ICP) grants. Over $750,000 in grants for insulation, energy-efficient lighting, and other measures have been received.
Founded in 2001, Virginia Tech's Consortium on Energy Restructuring (CER) – a group of faculty members and graduate students in engineering, business, and the social sciences – was formed to provide a forum for synergistic research and education across disparate fields of study. The CER is collaborating on a $470,000 grant from the National Science Foundation for a small-scale generation facility.
Elvey hired Wilson Prichett as campus energy manager to initiate actions within Virginia Tech's operations to reduce energy consumption. A certified energy manager and registered professional engineer, Prichett brings more than 30 years of experience in energy conservation, sustainable design, and facilities management to the university.
While working on his master's degree from the University of Virginia, Prichett was inspired to switch to energy sciences because of the 1970s energy crisis. In the wake of that energy crisis, Prichett's interest developed in solar energy and global warming.
In the late 1970s, Prichett worked on Capitol Hill for the Senate Committee on Science and Technology to help create the U.S. Department of Energy. Prichett later worked for a utility trade association, performing hundreds of renewable energy projects. From coconut shell-fueled diesel generators on Bora Bora to windmills along the West Coast of Australia, Prichett worked on a wide variety of energy projects.
Throughout the '80s and '90s, Prichett served as senior engineer and project manager at Knoxville, TN-based ASEGI Inc., a professional engineering/energy management consulting firm. Performing energy audits and conservation programs, this firm has collaborated with an impressive array of facilities, including military bases; 200 government buildings; over 2 million square feet of hospital buildings; and dozens of industrial plants, retail spaces, and office buildings.
Having performed more than 500 facility energy audits, Prichett has saved his clients $10 million per year in energy costs. Prichett also brings his extensive experience in renewable energy technologies and supplemental energy sources – including solar, wind, geothermal, small hydro, biomass, biogas, and fuel cells – to Virginia Tech.
The growing interest in environmental responsibility, energy conservation, and rising energy costs sparked Virginia Tech administration's desire to have a unified energy management program. "I've always felt that any institution that spends as much money as this university does on utilities really needs to have a person whose full-time job it is to help the university manage that program," says Elvey.
Virginia Tech's organizational structure is decentralized. With more than 25,000 students and an additional 6,000 faculty and staff members, it is challenging to achieve a consensus. Yet within its self-governing infrastructure, Elvey encourages knowledgeable individuals to become engaged with energy conservation and emerging technologies. "We have a number of excellent resources across the university that we can draw upon, and the idea is to formulate a consensus of priorities as we move forward," says Elvey.
"My official title is 'campus energy manager,' but I call myself the 'campus energy pest' because basically I have to get into everyone's business," says Wilson Prichett, campus energy manager, Virginia Tech. Hiring an energy manager at this crucial time gives the university the opportunity to focus a lot of its efforts relative to energy conservation. Adds Elvey, "There are a lot of things happening in the marketplace that really suggest that now is a good time to take our past efforts, refocus them, and take them to a higher level."
Coal, oil, and natural gas prices have tripled in recent years. In addition to fuel price increases, the school is positioning itself to take advantage of the upcoming deregulation of the region's electrical supply business. Virginia Tech's contract with its local energy supplier, Appalachian Electric Power (AEP), expires in July 2007. The school administration intends to better position itself by driving down its energy consumption and developing additional electric power-generating capacity. Despite the school's plans to construct several new research facilities, Virginia Tech is also committed to avoiding a significant increase in purchasing energy.
To accomplish this tremendous energy-saving goal, the university established a campus energy committee under the vice president for business affairs. Prichett serves as the 2005 chair of the committee, which includes representatives from the physical plant; utilities; capital design and construction; electric service; the office of the architect; environment, health, and safety services; faculty; and student government.
Last year, this new committee drafted its charter and bylaws. After several informal meetings, the committee's first meeting occurred in February. To encourage involvement, Virginia Tech has hosted several seminars covering the school's energy plans and an educational energy exhibit has traveled around the campus. Prichett has also given presentations to explain the school's energy conservation progress. "We are definitely getting the word out," he says.
"When in Rome, do as the Romans do:" This has become Prichett's personal motto when collaborating with the university's numerous factions. As the campus energy manager, Prichett attends the meetings of different groups to listen to their needs, offer suggestions, and develop a true picture of the university. As a consensus-builder, Prichett delves into every physical aspect of the university. "I have to get into the power plant and see if everything is being done as efficiently as possible. I [oversee] our procurement of utilities to make sure we're getting the best price we can, [that] we are renovating buildings using energy-efficient specifications, and [that] we're building buildings that are energy efficient," says Prichett.
For example, Prichett recommends replacing the school's traditional magnetic ballasts with electronic ballasts for fluorescent lamps for quick paybacks in energy savings and long-term benefits. The move from older-technology incandescent lamps will also result in lower maintenance costs and lower cooling requirements.
Prichett is also recommending the university build a biomass power plant for future energy needs. Instead of burning fossil fuels for heating and cooling, a biomass plant draws on local agricultural waste for heating, cooling, and electrical resources. This proposed plant would also provide increased reliability of power supply to the Virginia Tech campus. By using performance contracts, the school could build the facility without capital expenditures.
Unifying energy management duties makes good business sense on large campuses. Along with plans to renegotiate its electrical contract with AEP, the university has completed a commodities purchase of natural gas. Minimizing water, coal, and fuel oil prices are also important concerns.
In addition to closely managing fuel prices to prevent escalating costs, the university is investigating greater efficiencies in lamps, lighting controls, mechanical systems, and the building envelope. Attic insulation has been added to several educational buildings. Quaint yet drafty casement windows in all of the residence halls have been replaced with thermal pane windows. And over 100 buildings have received sensors and controls so that their HVAC systems, including chilled water and steam plants, can be remotely monitored.
Other energy conservation efforts through-out Virginia Tech include:
Because of the university's conservation efforts, the energy usage footprint (BTUs per square foot) on the campus is gradually declining. This decline is occurring despite the school's rising student enrollment and the number of older buildings on campus.
Along with the university's own ongoing energy-saving program, the school is gearing up to use Energy Performance Contracting Services (EPCS). The Commonwealth of Virginia has an EPCS program to make it easier for state entities to navigate the energy procurement process. The commonwealth has preselected a group of energy service companies (ESCOs). Instead of a cumbersome procurement process, Virginia Tech can simply select three ESCOs, receive proposals, evaluate these proposals, and pick the appropriate ESCO for its needs.
While Virginia Tech's unified energy management program is in its early stages, this endeavor already has a bright future. Energy managers need to understand how their colleagues' departments operate and then figure out how to make these departments more energy efficient. To accomplish this goal, Prichett is focusing on education and communication. "I always approach my job with the attitude that these people have been here for a long time. They know the place, and what they have to tell me is valuable," he explains.
Virginia Tech's motto is "Ut Prosim," which means "That I May Serve." This land-grant college's mission is embodied by that motto, relying on instruction, research, public service, and outreach activities to solve the problems of society. Dating back to its forebears, Virginia Tech has a tradition of independence and conservation. Instead of being tethered to a reactive mode, the university facilities management department takes a holistic approach to its campus needs.
By focusing on advanced technologies and energy conservation, the university is showing its commitment to environmental responsibility. And in creating the position of an energy manager on campus and elevating its conservation efforts, Virginia Tech will continue to distinguish itself as a technology leader.

News and Info page
We are a small family owned and operated business based 4 hours from Sydney, 2 hours from Canberra and located 26km out of Cowra CBD.
The first of the Windowrie vineyards were planted in the late 1980's and consisted of both "traditional" and "non-traditional" varieties including Chardonnay, Shiraz, Cabernet, Tempranillo, Sangiovese, Chenin Blanc, Petit Verdot and Verdelho.
Our family is committed to discovering varietals that are suited to our region. The wines are made to reflect the styles of these varieties when grown in our climate and soil at Windowrie in Cowra.
In 1999 David O'Dea made the decision to build the first winery in the Cowra region with a view to increase the quality of the Windowrie range and to better service the wine growing region. Windowrie winery is organically certified and provides wine making and fruit processing services for a number of different growers, both regionally and interstate.
Windowrie believe that the great strength of having a winery is the short time between harvest of the fruit and crushing process, allowing for the fruit characters identified in the vineyard to be captured quickly in the wine making process
In 2012 the first Pique Poul Blanc vines arrived in Australia. Working in conjunction with Steve Feletti (Moonlight Flat Oysters) Windowrie will produce the first vintage of this French variety otherwise known as "The Oyster Wine".
Windowrie has received many accolades over the last 25 years including David O'Dea (Founder) being named as one of Wine Business Magazines Top 50 Stars of the Australian Wine Industry, one of the Top 10 Wineries in New South Wales and being rated a Four Star Winey - Australian Wine Companion.
The Windowrie mantle has now been passed to the second generation of the O'Dea family and Jason O'Dea heads up the company as General Manager and Chief Viticulturalist

I wanted to find a way to thank Ford and get my story out. I have a 94 Ford Taurus GL 3.0L engine. This vehicle is driven every day to and from work, its taken us on vacation the last 12 years and is our main mode of transportation. We have as of today 299,438 miles on it. The original engine and transmission! I was so impressed with this car that I purchased an identical 1995 Ford Taurus with 159,000 miles on it and it is still going strong!
I just want to say that no one put me up to this and I would like to personally thank Ford for making such a great and dependable product for me. My next purchase will definately be another Ford!
Thanks again,
George Wall
