Pages for You
by Sylvia Brownrigg
Published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux
In a steam-filled diner in an east coast college town, Californian freshman Flannery Jansen catches sight of the most beautiful person she's ever seen: a graduate student, reading. The seventeen-year-old is shocked by her own desire to follow this beauty wherever it might take her. As luck would have it, Flannery finds herself enrolled in a class with the remote, brilliant older woman: she is intimidated at first, but gradually becomes Anne Arden's student outside of class as well. Whatever the subject—Baudelaire, lipstick colors, or how to travel with a lover—Flannery proves an eager pupil, until one day she learns more about Anne than she ever wanted to know.
Winner of a Lambda fiction award in 2002.
"Delightfully rendered and sharply written. . . offers up the meat and drink of fantasy: erotic tension, sensual sex scenes and a gifted, beautiful main character with whom to identify." —Newsday
"The novel is bathed in a joyful, cloistered mood of sensual celebration." —The New York Times
"Poignant but never saccharine, Pages for You captures the grand gesture and petty humiliations, the ecstasies and embarrassments of first love." —San Francisco Chronicle
"A pitch-perfect evocation of a young woman journeying through a year of awakenings. . . . Such a winning heroine that will compel readers of all sexual orientations who recall the thrill and anguish of growing up. This elegantly rendered, poignant novel, is ultimately about awakenings both bright and rude, the intoxicating nature of desire and the realization that love can devastate just as easily as it exalts." —The Village Voice
"Brownrigg nicely observes the course of infatuation and her lack of fuss about the gender of the lovers is refreshing." — (A) Entertainment Weekly
"Pages for You hums with awakened sensuality and the electricity of a newly ignited mind." —The Hartford Courant
"Like Turgenev or Katherine Mansfield, Sylvia Brownrigg understands that the inexperienced lover is a detective who doesn't know which clues matter. " —The Times
This year, Sylvia is completing work on a new novel for middle grade readers (ages 9-12) called Kepler's Dream, to be published by Penguin Press in the spring of 2012.

The Better Business Bureau of Acadiana is advising consumers to review their bank statements for possible unauthorized charges of less than less than 20 dollars from one five Texas companies that may be billing customers for services they never provided.
BBB discovered advertising issues with the websites for the following five diet-related business, all similar in content:
· Diet Instructor MD (www.dietinstructormd.com)
· Health Leader MD (www.healthleader.com)
· Slender Guide MD (www.slenderguidemd.com)
· Diet Leader MD (www.dietleadermd.com)
· Lean Inspiration MD (www.leaninspiration.com)
According to the BBB, consumers indicated they had never visited their websites nor had contacted the businesses, yet were billed by the sites. All five businesses have an "F" rating, the BBB's lowest possible rating, with BBB, for reasons that include complaints filed against businesses, failure to respond to complaints filed against businesses, advertising issues found by BBB and the businesses some of the businesses have failed to resolve underlying cause(s) of a pattern of complaints.
The BBB also says that these businesses failed to modify the websites or cease using unsubstantiated or inaccurate advertising claims after they had received Advertising Review challenges from the BBB. Most of the complaints about unauthorized billing referred to charges in the amount of $19.65, though some reported other amounts, such as $17.94. Some complainants reported being charged more than once in the same amount by different business names.
BBB performs advertising review across the U.S. and Canada to ensure ads are honest and accurately represent products and services to consumers and businesses. Instances in which companies responded to BBB, the companies promised, according to the BBB, to issue refunds and said that the consumers must have been billed after signing up for memberships while purchasing health-related products or receiving a sales call.
The consumers reported to the BBB that they had never heard of the company and had no idea why they were billed. The BBB said customers told them they had no idea how the business obtained their billing information. BBB offers the following advice to avoid being billed for services you don't want:
· Review your statements. Review credit card and bank statements for any unusual or questionable transactions. Contact the financial institution immediately if any are found. Be prepared with your credit card number and an explanation of when and how the charge might have occurred.
· Investigate. Once you have the exact name of the company charging your bank account or credit card, check out its BBB Business Review to see if it has a pattern of similar billing complaints.
· File a complaint. If you are being charged for services you didn't order, speak up. Visit bbb.org to file a complaint with BBB. Let the FTC know as well by filing a complaint at ftc.gov or by calling 877-FTC-HELP (1-877-382-4357).
· Dispute charges. Under federal law, charges made on a credit card can be disputed up to 60 days after the purchase.
· Be wary online. Avoid giving your credit card and other sensitive information online without first researching the business.
BBB of Acadiana services the parishes of Acadia, Evangeline, Iberia, Lafayette, St. Martin, St. Landry and Vermilion. BBB says its mission is to work for a trustworthy marketplace by maintaining standards for truthful advertising, investigating and exposing fraud against consumers and businesses.

MSP430 IO Pin Output Voltage too low to supply TLV2780 OP Amplifier
Dear Friends:
I followed the SLAA335 "Implementing A Smoke Detector With The MSP430F2012" use one IO pin P1.3 to power TLV2780.
I found that IO output voltage only 0.9V, but it is 3.3V if I disconnect IO Pin P1.3 from TLV2780.
I use MSP430G2232 instead of MSP430F2012.
Who can kindly tell me what the problem is ?
and how to soult the problem ?
Thanks !
Marshall Wu
This is very low power amplifier, every msp430 shall be able to supply it from single pin. Perhaps amplifier output is connected to pin which is improperly configured as output and set to logical 0.
Dear llmars:
Thanks for your prompt response.
TLV2780 output is connect to P1.0( as ADC10 input) and P1.3 for TLV2780 power.
I config P1DIR = 0x5a, (P1.0 input, P1.3 output)
P1OUT=0xaf,(P1.0 & P1.3 are high)
P1REN=0xee,(P1.3 with pull resistor, P1.0 without pull resistor)
P1SEL2,P1SEL = (0x00,0x00), (0x00,x01) or (0x01,0x010) have no difference.
ADC10AE0= 0x01;(enable P1.0 as analog input)
P1.3 output ~=0.83V,
When I connect Vcc=3.3V to TLV2780 VDD then every thing seems normal.(OK)
Would you please check the above configuration to see what's wrong ?
Thanks !
Marshall Wu
CHEN YOUNG WU When I connect Vcc=3.3V to TLV2780 VDD then every thing seems normal.(OK)
Still you need to check against amp output "short". Disconnect amp output from uC and then try to power it.
I disconnected the TLV2780 output from uC P1.0
Checked that P1.3(for OP power) is still 0.83V when P1.3 is output high(P1OUT = 0x08.
why ? the OP amplifier circuit is complete same as SLAA335 OP amplifier circuit.
CHEN YOUNG WUwhy ?
Out of ideas. Particular (single) opamp consumes 0.8mA, single I/O pin is more than enough to power it.
Do you use amp having 1 channel? Maybe you somehow blew opamp or blew output pin P1.3? Forgot to (properly) connect VCC to msp430?
Check current draw of the circuit when amp is powered directly from VCC.
Check what's happening with VCC rail, other output pins having logical 1 - while you power amp from P1.3.
Open your mind and check whole circuit including pinouts of both ICs, resistor values.
TLV2780 is a single channel OP amp. it consuming 560uA when direct power by VCC.
MSP430 VCC and VSS(GND) checked.
checked, when P1.3 power OP the other P1.4 output is 3.3V
I config P1.3 as a digital IO output function with pull up/down.
When OP power by VCC, the ADC10 and OP amp are both function correctly.
are there any other configuration I've missed ?
CHEN YOUNG WUare there any other configuration I've missed ?
Dunno. Can't check your circuit from here, can't check your source code either (because you don't show it all).
BTW I never use pull-ups for outputs - can't say it changes something or not. Try to disable it.
Try to power amp from another pin configured as output, without pull-up resistor and without according P1SEL bits set.
Ok, so you've got a pullup resistor (because pin is driven high) and you've connected a load to it. What you get is something like this:
If you replace the opamp with a resistor to model the load, you get a Voltage divider. No wonder you only get 0.83V on the device because the rest has already dropped on the pullup resistor. Disable the pull resistor and it will probably be fine or perhaps provide Voltage to the opamp through a mosfet which you'd then drive from P1.3-- that would probably be a little neater (personal taste though).
Arturs ElksnisOk, so you've got a pullup resistor (because pin is driven high) and you've connected a load to it.
No, he did not. F2012 pin schematics says that pull-up resistor is enabled only for input direction.
Ilmars, In the first post in this thread Wong Chen Young Wu says this:
CHEN YOUNG WU I use MSP430G2232 instead of MSP430F2012.
So forget the F2012. Now in the document "MSP430x2xx Family User's Guide" (latest link: http://www.ti.com/lit/ug/slau144j/slau144j.pdf), page 328 and 329:
Port schematics of G2232 for P1.3 seem to correspond to that too.
CHEN YOUNG WU Who can kindly tell me what the problem is ?
The schematic pinout is for the SOT-23 part. SO part has different pinout.
(Also SHDN should be connected to VDD. )
Arturs ElksnisSo forget the F2012.
Can't. You never forget your first girl or first chip (of the msp430 series).
Arturs ElksnisPort schematics of G2232 for P1.3 seem to correspond to that too.
You shall look closer. Output (push-pull) driver enable of the pin P1.3 does not depend on pullup/down resistor enable. So by enabling pull-up for pin P1.3 you don't disable push-pull driver of the output unlike P1.3 of MSP430G2x21 chip.
[edit] Have to admit that difference I mention looks weird to me. Comments are appreciated. Perhaps I missed something ;)
Dear All Friends :
Finally, I've got the answer. The hints are come from our discussions. Thank you all !
I just disabled the Pin Pull Up/Down function for Output IO Pin. So, that means the output can't enable pull up/down resistor ?
Now, The OP got the power she needs. but for OP to function correctly, It's need a delay to wait for a stable power.
Thanks to ALL again !
Chen Young
Dear All Friends :
Finally, I've got the answer.
I just disabled the Pin Pull Up/Down function for Output IO Pin. Chen Young
Finally, I've got the answer.
I just disabled the Pin Pull Up/Down function for Output IO Pin. Chen Young
If you're saying setting PxRen to '0' solved the problem, it doesn't make any sense to me because from the pin schematic PxRen doesn't affect the push/pull driver. However PxSel2, PxSel = 1,0 would disable the driver and cause your problem as I see it.
Hi Joseph:
At beginning, I just thougt that enable pull-up/down will make output high( voltage level) more close to VCC.
From the Function diagram, It's seems no any bad affection at all. So, I did to enable pull-up/down resistor.
I just don't know why ? but fact said what it is.
Thank you for your particitation in Forum.

Academic Honesty Policy
Effective Semester 2, 2012 (23 July 2012)
2.1. Examples of academic dishonesty in assessments other than examinations
2.2. Examples of academic dishonesty in examinations
2.3. Allegations and penalties for academic dishonesty
4.4. General conduct in examination venue
4.5. Examination interruptions
This policy sets out the obligations of coursework students when undertaking assessment tasks, including examinations, particularly the obligation of academic honesty.
The policy supports the following Graduate Attribute in the University's students: "An awareness of ethical, social and cultural issues within a global context and their importance in the exercise of professional skills and responsibilities".
This policy applies to all students who are enrolled in a University of Adelaide course or courses which can or do form part of a University of Adelaide coursework program.
Students enrolled in courses at other institutions are covered by the equivalent policies of their enrolling institution, even if the teaching and/or marking is provided by the University of Adelaide.
The University's approach to assessment and the principles and procedures which must be followed by academic staff when setting and marking assessment are contained in the University's Assessment for Coursework Programs Policy.
Academic dishonesty in higher degree by research programs is dealt with under the Responsible Conduct of Research Policy.
a. Assessment is an aid to learning and involves obligations on the part of students to make it effective.
b. Academic honesty is an essential component of teaching, learning and research and is fundamental to the very nature of universities.
c. Academic writing is evidence-based, and the ideas and work of others must be acknowledged and not claimed or presented as one's own, either deliberately or unintentionally.
Responsibility: Each individual student

FORT WAYNE – AWP Sports Performance is making sure athletes have a chance to take the next step in their football careers.
Former Notre Dame receiver John Goodman, former Saint Francis receiver Austin Coleman and former Indiana running back Darius Willis are working with AWP to prepare for their pro day workouts.
But those three are not the only players training with AWP. Former IU and Harding receiver Dre Muhammad, who was in the Oakland Raiders' training camp for a month last season, is getting ready to start his CFL career with the Montreal Alouttes. Former Toledo and Snider defensive lineman Malcolm Riley is getting ready to play for the Jacksonville Sharks of the AFL. Cornerback Lawrence Barnett is getting ready to play at a new school after deciding not to return to Indiana for his final season of eligibility.
Goodman, Coleman and Willis are the second group to work with AWP to get ready for pro day, and AWP president and CEO Michael Ledo said this group is a getting a different experience in the new facilities in the SportONE/Parkview Fieldhouse, especially now that there is an on-site medical facility.
It was just the medical piece that we were hurting with, Ledo said Monday. When you are beating these guys' bodies up two times a day for 10 weeks, their bodies need recovery. We just couldn't provide it (last year) That's the key change from last year.
Goodman is returning to his roots by working out at AWP to get ready for Notre Dame's pro day. The Irish have not announced a date for their pro day.
They know what they are doing, said Goodman, who trained with AWP when he was at Bishop Dwenger. Me and (Tyler Eifert, Goodman's teammate at Notre Dame and Dwenger,) were talking about it. We started off in the Taylor University weight room, which was tiny. They've moved from there to here. It is such a dramatic change. It is really nice to see.
Willis is restarting after a right knee injury ended his career at IU after the 2010 season. Willis, who hasn't played organized football for two years, said his injury was originally misdiagnosed, but the former Franklin Central standout had surgery on March 6 to relieve patellar tendonitis.
Willis said he no longer feels pain in his knee and will participate at IU's pro day March 5.
I'm doing everything different and that I've never done before, Willis said of his work at AWP. I've never been coached in terms of just playing the running back position or just learning how to control my body, my speed, my technique. I've never been coached on any of the things they do here. I was just shocked. With the experience I have, I thought I knew a lot, but I still have a lot to learn about what they do here.
Coleman, a Harding product who owns the NAIA record for kickoff returns for touchdowns with eight, will participate in Ball State's pro day. He said the Cardinals will hold their workouts on either March 13 or 20.
It's been a good process, Coleman said of the AWP training. I've been improving every day on the small things.
While the other five are getting ready for football beyond college, Barnett is training for his final college season. He said he will visit Alabama A&M on Friday and also Eastern Illinois in February.
Both of them wouldn't recruit me for one year if they didn't want me to come and play for one year, said Barnett, who graduates from IU in May. I just want to go where I'm needed and wanted.

FALL 2013 GROOMING: 1.4 km of "thin" skate grooming was done on Nov. 17th. The Hamster Loop was almost completely groomed, but there are thin areas where dirt and occasional rocks will test your balance!
Grooming typically begins toward the end of November but could be earlier or later depending on snowfall. Grooming reports are sent out via email as soon as possible via our most up to date member list. If you would like to receive notifications, please be sure we have your most up to date contact information and that your membership dues are up to date.
Grooming is primarily accomplished using a Pisten Bully but at times we may use snow machine to help support the efforts. Grooming will occur throughout the winter and typically concludes sometime in March or April. Again, this all depends on snowfall and snowpack.
If you travel to Beaver Creek and it is very windy in the parking lot, it is highly advisable to walk under the bridge and get up onto the trail system. Typically, on the most windy day it is remarkably more calm once you get into the trees and further out onto the course.

We have all colors of non-turn washers in stock.
Shimano Nexus SG-8R20 8-Speed Internally Geared Hub with Roller Brake
This hub was ridden less than one year in Seattle. Neither the shop nor Shimano used enough grease and oil for NW weather.
If you bring us your bike we can preemptivly weatherize your hub and avoid expensive repairs.
Unfourtunately, the only way to fix this hub is replacement. The hub shell bearing races were badly pitted. The hub functioned, but with a very loud rumbling noise.
2013 Update: Current Shimano production adds ample grease for most fair weather users. However, in wet climates we still recommend an initial weatherization/overhaul at 1000 miles. After that, every 3000 miles or 2 years is fine. Daily commuters should have their hub overhauled once a year regardless of milage.
Below are pictures of an overhaul of a Shimano Nexus SG-8R36 'Red Band' Hub
The shift mechanism of a Nexus and Alfine hub are identical. An exploded diagram is not available and Shimano lists it only as the Hub Axle Unit. Care must be taken when disassembling the hub as to not unlodge any of the parts. They are held together by a friction washer with a light press fit. The spring on the left is the shift spring. It works when you twist the shifter during normal use. The stronger over-ride spring on the right allows the mechanism to move if the clutch is stuck. This can happen if you twist the shifter without moving the cranks. If you leave the over-ride spring in this position for a long time it can weaken it causing the hub to malfunction. Shifting an IGH hub is similar to a car. 'Push in the clutch' by stopping pedalling or even slightly pedalling backwards when you shift. If you shift under power you can cause the clutch to remain in the same gear until your pedal stroke has a dead spot when the clutch can move. Repeated derailleur-style shifting can also weaken the spring. If you accidentally take this assembly appart, we can re-assemble it for you, or follow the instructions we published:
Shimano 8 Speed Axle Unit Reassembly Instructions.
The Drive side cone is not sealed as well as it could be. A cartridge bearing would be superior, but Shimano is committed to cup and cone type bearings. Therefore, proper lube is necessary. Factory lube is not enough for daily or Northwest use! And neither is Shimano's recommendation to just dip the guts in oil. the hub MUST be periodically completely dismantled as shown and cleaned, re-lubed and have the ball bearings replaced. There is no other way to get the bearing races to last. The picutre below is a sad example of what can happen. Often we can re-machine the races on our lathe, but this one is too pitted for that. Thankfully now this part is available as a spare.
Driver unit disassembled.
Shimano SG-S700 Alfine 11 Speed
Above is the right side axle seal that sits outside the cone.
As you can see it is a very complicated seal and it often leaks.
If you remove it and degrease it and the seat it sits in, then coat it with 100% silicone (or automotive gasket such as Permatex Form-A-Gasket #2) and reinstall, it will fix the axle oil leak, but oil may still seep out the larger main seal.
Also, never lay an internally geared hub on it's side for long periods of time.
If you need to transport a bike horizontally, lay it on the drive side and put a rag under it!
Change your oil every 3000 miles. (the first oil change is at 500 miles)
If the seal is over-torqued it will deform and leak.
Shimano Alfine SG-S500 & SG-S501 8-Speed Hub
Above is a picture of the factory lubrication.
Shimano SG-S501 Alfine 8 Speed Hub
Shimano Nexus SG-7C21 7-Speed with Coaster Brake
Date 2/3/11 This hub was used for about 3 years and is the current version. Internal replacement parts are NOT available.
Shimano only offers the entire 'guts' unit (#1 in the diagram). We find it odd because part numbers 11, 15 & 16 were the only parts worn!
Additionally, they sell the tools necessary to replace just those parts! You can see them in the diagram, we own them.
We can add waterproof grease to your hub and prevent this wear from happening.
The pictures below show the proper lube for the Pacific Northwest.
Shimano SG-S501 Alfine 8 Speed Hub
Shimano Nexus SG-7C21 7-Speed with Coaster Brake
Shimano Nexus SG-7R46 7-Speed Axle Assembly
If you have taken yours appart or it came appart as it often does during an overhaul, then, fear not!
There are instructions on the Sheldon Brown website.
Shimano 3CC Three Speed Coaster Brake
Shimano SG-3S20 Three Speed

College Park, MD (SportsNetwork.com) - University of Maryland assistant coach Dalonte Hill has resigned, effectively immediately.
While Maryland's official press release didn't state a reason for the resignation, Hill was charged last month with his third DUI in five years and took a leave of absences from the program.
"We appreciate Dalonte's contributions to our program the past three years," head coach Mark Turgeon said in Wednesday's statement. "We wish him the very best in his future endeavors."
This was Hill's third season with the Terps' program. A native of Washington, D.C., he came to Maryland from Kansas State, where he was hired by former head coach Bob Huggins in April 2006 after three seasons at Charlotte. He was elevated to associate head coach and recruiting coordinator just over a year later upon the promotion of Frank Martin to head coach.
With Hill gone, Maryland promoted Dustin Clark to assistant coach and named former Terps star Juan Dixon special assistant to the head coach.
Dixon led the Terps to the national title in 2002, garnering numerous accolades, including Associated Press consensus First Team All-America, ACC Player of the Year and NCAA Final Four Most Outstanding Player. He also spent seven seasons in the NBA with the Washington Wizards, Portland Trail Blazers, Toronto Raptors and Detroit Pistons.
"We're excited to welcome Juan back to College Park," Turgeon said. "He is one of the most decorated and celebrated player in Terrapin history. Juan's diverse experience playing professionally in the NBA combined with his passion for Maryland basketball makes him a very strong addition to our program."
Dixon's responsibilities will include scouting and film breakdown, academic support and mentorship and additional administrative duties.

Hotel Pravo
Shanghai, ChinaEnter your email address and zip code for pricing and availability
Why Stay At Hotel Pravo
Across the Huangpu River from the mega towers of Pudong, Shanghai Hotel Pravo offers a haven of whispered wellbeing in the up-and-coming North Bund district.
The Scoop
Art buffs will find plenty to ogle at the 86-room Hotel Pravo, where a dream team of designers and architects helped to create the Shanghai hotspot. Architect Tong Yi Qing embellished the hotel's 15-story Art Deco exterior with an eye-catching gilded sunburst motif. In the lobby, the serene vibe comes courtesy of artist Xia Xiao Wan's floor-to-ceiling, floral-inspired installations. The restaurant scene is courtesy of yet another artist, Guo Fang Jiang, whose contemporary landscapes set the scene in the onsite Yu Yuan restaurant, where guests dine on traditional Northern Chinese fare; at Mare, the fresh seafood has a Provençal flair. Corner Superior suites afford picture-perfect views of the Bund, while Deluxe rooms provide an unexpected place to settle in for the night: a soaking tub located in the center of the room.
Insider Tips
Savor chef Bao Chun Jiang's authentic Shanghai and Taiwanese specialties at Yu Yuan. The standout is a pan-fried codfish with black bean sauce.
"One Button Service" is the hotel's 24/7 butler motto; a staffer will arrange for anything from an in-room massage to a night at the opera.
Preferred Airport
Arrive at Shanghai Pudong International Airport (SHA) which is approximately 30 mies from the hotel. Anticipate between 40 and 60 minutes of travel time depending on traffic.299 Wusong Lu, Shanghai, Hongkou District, China

Why We Love Shanghai
Welcome to a city in flux: Despite the continued vertical expansion, in Shanghai, a deep reverence for history remains. See it first-hand as locals practice tai chi in the shade of towering skyscrapers, or in the 1920's Art Deco buildings that now house cutting-edge restaurants and haute-couture shops along wide, French-inspired boulevards.

MARGATE — Clerks in five local convenience stores have been cited by police for selling cigarettes and alcohol to minors.
The city's Vice, Intelligence and Narcotics Unit conducted a sweep of 23 convenience stores on Nov. 17 and 24.
"That's almost everyone in town," Lt. Gerald Pettigrossi said about the sweep.
Clerks in five stores were cited for selling alcohol or cigarettes to minors younger than 21, a misdemeanor violation of state law.
