Seriously, track your calories.
Set a REALISTIC daily goal for your calories, like 1600 or so.
Drink water.
The healthy choice meals at the supermarket are very low calorie, like 400 or so.
One of those for lunch with a glass of water and you are pretty much home free budget wise.
You stick within your calorie limit and you WILL lose weight, simple as that.
You cheat and rationalize a splurge here and there and you will cancel out all your previous effort so keep that in mind.
It's all about discipline.
I agree with everything except this....
if you don't allow yourself little cheats here and there...you're only setting yourself up for failure. If you want a chicken wing..eat a wing...not 20 mind you..but eat 6...just know your ass better work it off the next day...
Now don't do this all the time..but seriously..eat a fuging wing..enjoy it..savor it...just know you need to go back
it's a lifestyle change..not a temporary change...the minute you understand that..you'll lose weight
I never stopped eating wings or french fries...I just didit here and there and not all the time....and I was at the gym 4 days a week

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

The late 90s.
The glory days of the genre I love the most: metalcore. Deadguy's Fixation on a Coworker, Cave In's Until Your Heart Stops, Botch's We Are The Romans, Dillinger Escape Plan's Calculating Infinity and the list goes on and on. Late '90s metalcore was eviscerating music, but shortly after the turn of the century, something much prettier reared its ugly head. Norma Jean and the billions of copycat bands that followed them.
Fast forward to the present and "metalcore" is now a dirtier word than even "emo," thanks to the bands that spend more time focusing on their image than the songs they write. What happened to the muscular, experimental and downright freaky metalcore I knew and loved? Sadly, the old guard has mostly died off or changed styles. Save for Coalesce's Ox and Burnt By The Sun's swan song Heart of Darkness, few "good" metalcore records have come out lately. And what of the inheritors? Well, Norma Jean are almost an arena rock band now, but the vocalist of Bless the Martyr, Kiss the Child Josh Scogin's the Chariot still resemble those chaotic early days.
The Chariot's latest offering, Long Live, is a treatise of starting and stopping. The record examines the interplay of blast-beats, break-beats, break-downs and walls of squealing feedback as a base for the fire and brimstone Scogin spews over top. In result, Long Live sounds like it was recorded in a building they were simultaneously burning down. But that sound isn't nearly as surprising as it once was in Scogin's old band. This "everything is falling apart" sound is a Chariot trademark but now I don't believe they're capable of holding a song together long enough for it to build anything worth falling from.
However, a few songs on Long Live begin to lay a foundation. "Robert Rios" begins with full chords strummed in eighth notes with a maniacal Scogin over the top that is the closest to a straight punk song they've written. But others, like "Calvin Makenzie" and "David De La Hoz," are as ADD as ever, seemingly cutting and pasting different parts together that are neither melodically compelling nor all that heavy. When the Chariot are compelling though, they're capable of devastating beauty, like the cinematic final chord progression and vocal performance on "The City," the sweet horn part and riff on the closer "The King" or the absolutely crushing breakdown in "Andy Sundwall" (that seems like the way "The Company, The Comfort, The Grave" always should've been.)
Despite putting up the semblance of a framing, the Chariot do not build much to burn. The beginning of the record contains the lyric "disappointed, I know you are" and I'm not so much disappointed in you, the Chariot, as I am the massive void your forefathers left you to fill.
This also begs the question: who out there is filling the void right? Are there any current bands with that New Jersey sound that are good?

I'm a big fan of the afformentioned albums at the beginning, also I think The Chariot is horrorably underrated. However, it could be just the bands that they are touring with, that are the ones briging them down.

^Seriously? What's your issue with Cancer Bats?
And Norma Jean is arena rock? HAVE YOU HEARD ARENA ROCK? You are out of touch.
- December 7, 2010 at 12:14 PM

Cancer Bats are okay, can't say I love 'em, definitely don't hate them.
However, if thinking Norma Jean are bordering on modern day arena rock, then consider us happily out of touch.
In terms of who I think is quality metalcore these days, one band immediately jumps to the front of my mind. GAZA. people seem to skirt around calling them metalcore, instead they are some combination of grind and sludge and hardcore... they're metalcore. And REALLY good metalcore.
- December 7, 2010 at 12:33 PM
I think saying Norma Jean as "practically arena rock" is a metaphor for how soft they've become, not them actually sharing the stage with U2. Norma Jean's "Bless the Martyr" is fan-fucking-tastic.
- December 7, 2010 at 12:50 PM
- These Seans said...
I liked their first two records a lot when they came out. I'm less interested now because of change in my own tastes and also their change in direction.
We're not saying we can't see the difference between U2 and Norma Jean, we're saying that for "the kids" these days, Norma Jean is more or less a "rock" band that one would go see in an "arena" therefore....

@Anonymous: 1. Why not log in with a name? 2. Yes, it was a metaphor.
@These Seans: INDEED! I've been spinning "He Is Never Coming Back" lately and it's pretty good. Here are a few other bands I've heard over the past few years that I define as metalcore (or mostly metalcore/in the same vein of the bands I like):
- Trap Them (OBVIOUSLY!)
- Fuck the Facts
- Engineer
- Knut
I've heard several others that have left me underwhelmed, Cancer Bats included. To my ears, they sound like a lot of the Ferret bands I've heard before.

Student Information Systems | News
Two school districts in Texas have recently gone public with their decision to adopt a new student information system in an effort to ensure compliance with state reporting requirements.
Royal Independent School District (ISD) deployed the Skyward Student Management Suite in 2012 for its "real-time monitoring of critical student data such as grades, scheduling and attendance, and to facilitate school-to-home communication," according to information released by the district.
Ore City ISD adopted the solution in 2008, before the Texas Education Agency (TEA) named it a state-sponsored student information system provider in 2011, then switched to the TEA-sponsored version later.
"Ore City ISD wanted a system that was robust, yet easy for the staff to use," said Lynn Heflin, superintendent of Ore City ISD, in a prepared statement. "We were very pleased when TEA named Skyward as a preferred vendor, because our student system was already implemented and would now be fully supported by the state. Skyward has proved time and again that it can meet the growing needs of our district, as well as hundreds of other districts throughout Texas."
Skyward automatically notifies districts when changes are made to reporting standards, which can affect district funding. Previously, Royal ISD manually edited code for reporting changes.
"Our district is saving so much time on the programming end of student data reporting since implementing Skyward," said Leal Hardman, director of special services at Royal, in a prepared statement. "Whereas before we spent quite a bit of time scrubbing data to prepare it for shipment to the state, Skyward takes care of the entire process. They are also proactive in keeping our district well informed of any changes to state reporting requirements. I am quite impressed with the comprehensive service and attention to detail Skyward provides."
More information about Royal ISD is available at royal-isd.com. Go to ocisd.net to learn more about Ore City ISD.

Applied philosophy in action
Philosophy Stuff
I have been a philosopher at the University of Rhode Island since 1992, before which time I taught at the University of Edinburgh and for the Open University, both in the United Kingdom. At this point in time I have been teaching philosophy and writing philosophically for twenty years.
Teaching philosophy to undergraduates strikes me as being a great privilege and I remain impassioned about my work in the classroom. Despite its abstruse character philosophy plays a central role in any reflective human life, even if one does not realize the philosophical character of such reflections. I find myself hearing from students I taught more than a decade ago, students who share their realizations about the impact of philosophy on their lives now that they have reached early middle age. I am grateful to have been part of their journey.
Although I have been publishing scholarly work steadily during my professional life, most of that work won't be terribly interesting or accessible to an audience beyond the community of professional philosophers. Nonetheless, here are a very few things I have written that might be of interest to a handful of people:
"Schopenhauer On the Proper Foundation of Art" in The Cambridge Companion to Schopenhauer
"The Narrative and the Ambient in Environmental Aesthetics" in The Aesthetics of Natural Environments
"I've Looked at Clouds from Both Sides Now: Can There Be Aesthetic Qualities in Nature?" in Aesthetic Concepts: Essays After Sibley
"Wherefore the Rhizome? Eelgrass Restoration in the Narragansett Bay" in Handbook of Regenerative Landscape Design
Beyond Philosophy
Two years ago I decided to stop writing scholarly articles and have since that time directed my intellectual and creative energies toward writing fiction and plays. After twenty years of working as a scholar, I now feel compelled to work out my philosophical preoccupations in new arenas.
To that end I was honored to see my one-act play "Blue Angels"selected by Chicago's Rivendell Theater Ensemble for production in its annual "Fresh Produce" series in August 2008. At the moment I am working on two full-length dramas while also seeking an agent for my novel False as Water, an epistemological quest disguised as a conventional mystery.

DD hates baths. Hates. I bathe once or twice a week in the cold weather as I'm not much of a sweater. I'd like to bathe her at least once a week but she hates it so much, I've only ever given her three baths in her lifetime (with sponge bathes in between). Its about to get hot and both of us will need to bathe more often.
Just now I was in the shower and DD was in her chair in the bathroom with me. I was contemplating getting her in there with me after I finished washing my hair when she began to cry. I knew it was her diaper so I took it off and brought her in with me.
She liked it!!!! And it was way more convenient than her baby bath. She was a little slippery with the soap on her, but ultimately not as slippery as I expected and she was actually easy to handle. I'm sold on showering with your baby!
She still hated being cold on exiting the shower though. And she peed on her robe. Oh, well. Tomorrow is laundry day.
I shower with our guys as well. Although on nights I am alone I have to alternate who gets a shower with me as I can't hold both in the shower. I bring their bouncer into the bathroom with my towel, their towel and one right out of the drye
You can make a sling out of mesh fabric and wear her in the shower or pool. That takes some of the slipperiness out of the equation.
I also stitched some ribbon on to a couple of bath towels and I wear them kind of like an apron/smock when

Anyone who's passed through a multiplex has a good understanding of the rules of superheroism, but it's usually confined to on-camera antics. And they're usually somewhere a bit more glamorous than rural Arizona.
The most recent Rolling Stone has a quasi-exposé about the phenomenon of "reals," grown men who don self-designed costumes to fight the forces of evil…which usually means local purse-snatchers and the occasional drug dealer.
We're not going to fault them for doing a little amateur police work in their spare time, and a secret identity can come in handy for lots of reasons, but did they really need the costumes? Nobody questions the occasional good Samaritan, but when you start strapping on shin-guards and ordering a SUPRHRO vanity plate, you've gone too far. As the Dark Knight so memorably put it, "I'm not wearing hockey pants."

A record number of applications has been submitted to the University of Illinois for the coming school year — 33,178. That's almost 2,000 more than last year.
Applications were up in all categories — among Illinois residents, out-of-state students and international students.
Stacey Kostell, the university's director of undergraduate admissions, says the growth in the number of in-state applicants, which made up slightly more than half of the total, is seen as a success because there are fewer high school graduates in Illinois this year.

From the Missouri Department of Conservation
-- Seed catalogs have begun appearing in mailboxes, providing hours of recreational reading for the remainder of Missouri's winter days. Residents whose planting project extends beyond flowers and vegetables, might look at trees and shrubs included in the 2010 seedling catalog from George O. White Forest Nursery.
The Missouri Department of Conservation nursery in Texas County produces millions of seedlings each year to make wildlife habitat improvement affordable for Missourians. The nursery begins taking orders in November. However, seedlings ranging from black walnut trees and white pine to spicebush and blackberry remain available for immediate shipping, according to Nursery Supervisor Greg Hoss.
"We still have a surprising variety of plants on hand this year," said Hoss. "Late winter is a good time to plant, so right now anyone who loves wildlife and has a shovel can get in the act."
Hoss said hardwood seedlings available include regular and certified black walnut trees. Both certified and regular seedlings are 12 to 30 inches tall. The certified seedlings are grown from seeds certified by the Missouri Seed Certification Board as coming from plantations where all trees show outstanding vigor, form and rapid growth. The extra-large trees are one year old and approximately 3 feet tall.
Other hardwood seedlings still in stock at the state forest nursery include pecan, sycamore, bur oak, white oak, bald cypress, river birch, chinquapin oak, swamp white oak and pin oak. Evergreens available include shortleaf, loblolly, red and white pines.

More oil found in Ghana
The headline says it all.
Tullow Oil has made another "significant" oil discovery in Ghana, in a block adjacent to one where it made a big discovery in June, supporting investor hopes that the country will become a major profit centre for the firm.
London-based Tullow said in a statement on Wednesday that the Hyedua-1 well discovered "a significant light oil accumulation", in the Deepwater Tano block, which Tullow operates and in which it has a 50 percent stake. U.S.-based Anadarko Petroleum Corp and private-equity backed Kosmos Energy own 18 percent each.
Oil will be developed as soon as 2011. Read more

I am also in the market for a melanger (& especially for advice about experiences with various models).
I can offer you the following links:
If you haven't found something else, I am considering selling my melangeur and some other
equipment (convection oven for roasting/ cacao cracker) and 3) 60 kg bags of raw cacao beans.
I recently sold my chocolate confection business, CHOCOLA'TE, (spiritedchocolate.com) in Bisbee, Arizona but the buyer was not interested in the beans to bar part of the business.
So I have a ICGC C-40 wet grinder/melanger I purchased from innoconcepts.com and the other
equipment listed above. I have all you need to get started in a beans to bar business.
If you are interested drop me an email and we can talk about price.
I would also appreciate getting a description of what is being sold?
Hi Gordon
I tried to reply to you directly through <firstname.lastname@example.com> and did in fact get the new owner. We are very interested in your machinery. Could you please send me a list of everything you have available? Thanks very much
Hello Gordon,
We are small chocolate company in Oregon but growing quickly and wanted to know if had sold your equipment or if you had any leads on stone grinders/melangers.

What exactly in TouchWiz do people have such an issue with?
Had an S2 which I had CM and various other roms on. Now have an S4 and it still has TouchWiz on it. Launcher changed from TWLauncher to something else and that's it. If it's purely the launcher that bothers people, install a new one!
People complain about it being bloated, but again you have the option to disable apps. Don't get me wrong, CM10 was nice to use on the S2, but I've not felt any urge to flash anything on the S4 after changing the Launcher.

Dutch Kills
Time Out says
Posted: Mon Apr 26 2010
By now, bar pioneer Sasha Petraske's formula is pretty familiar: natty bartenders, precise drinks and little (if any) signage. What separates Long Island City's Dutch Kills from the rest is space. The plentiful elbow room makes it a comfortable place to enjoy cocktails like the rye-based Garibaldi, made with lime juice, Campari and mellow white grapes. The Infante takes the familiar pairing of tequila and lime, and lightens it up with homemade orgeat (rosewater and almond syrup) and nutmeg. The cocktail price tag of $9 is a welcome break from the $13-a-drink norm across the river. And if you go on a weekday, you can escape the city crowds as well.

In order to change to an old family name, it must have been passed down directly in your family for at least two generations. Further, it must have been used within the last four generations (counting from your parents).
In some cases, you may need to turn to the regional state archives to get an extract from the birth and baptism book.
When Johan Frisk went to school, he was teased about his surname. Now he wants to spare his children the same experience and change to his maternal grandmother's maternal grandmother's maiden name – Grip. Johan's maternal grandmother's maternal grandmother got married in 1881 and her parents were also called Grip. In Johan's case, the conditions for taking the surname Grip have been met.
Johanna Svensson thinks she has a very common surname and decides to change to her paternal grandmother's mother's maiden name, Sköld. Johanna's paternal grandmother's mother got married in 1895 and her parents were also called Sköld. In Johanna's case, the conditions for taking the surname Sköld have also been met. Johanna is married, but her husband has not changed surname previously. Therefore, when Johanna gets her application approved by PRV, her husband can take the new surname without paying a fee by applying to the Swedish Tax Agency.
If your husband or wife is included in the application to PRV, he/she also has the right to pass on the old family name, even if the marriage ends. That right does not apply if he/she changes to the name through the Swedish Tax Agency.

text: There are few cinematic crimes more heinous than making a boring action movie. Sadly, that's what the first hour of Triads-versus-Yakuza thriller War is. We watch, idly, as Jason Statham's dour, fuzzy FBI agent tracks the mysterious hitman (Jet Li) who killed his best friend and his family. And just as you think to yourself, ''This flick would be way better if it had Van Damme playing twins,'' along comes a plot twist so ingenious that it almost redeems the rest of the flick. In fact, you kinda feel bad for the twist itself, which deserved a better home.

Stars Over The Thornapple Quilt Show
The Stars Over The Thornapple Quilt Show is going on this weekend at the Barry County Expo Center near Hastings, Michigan. The show opened Saturday and will be open Sunday from 9 a.m.-4 p.m.
The show is bigger than it was two years ago and features a fun variety of quilts and vendor booths. Thornapple River Rippers Quilt Guild members (from left) Rebecca Lydy, Kathy Dunn, Caroline Moffit and Vickie Ward, joined forces to piece the lovely raffle quilt behind them. You can read a column I wrote about another one of their guild members here.
Here's a preview of some of the other quilts on display at the show:
In addition to checking out the quilts, I chatted with many interesting vendors at the show and spent some quality time talking to Mike Lydy and his daughter, Brandi Melkild, about the handmade quilting accessories that Mike makes in his wood shop.
I also stumbled upon a very sweet quilt story that I'm writing up for next Sunday's column. Stay tuned for that. In the meantime, go check out the show if you live close enough to pop over.

JOURNEY Tickets
Journey with Whitesnake and Thunder tickets for a May arena tour are available now on Aloud.com.
Journey and Whitesnake,, along with special guests Thunder, are set to appear onstage together for the first time ever in May 2013, taking in eight dates across the UK.
Journey, one of the most popular American rock bands of all time, are responsible for creating some of the best-known songs in modern music. Over the years they have gained multiple accolades – including 19 Top 40 singles, 25 Gold and Platinum albums and single 'Don't Stop Believin'' holding the #1 digital catalogue song in history.
In 2011 they drew nearly a million fans to their 2011 'Eclipse World Tour' which included a sold-out UK leg and ranked in the Top 15 Tours of the year.
In the same year the band were awarded the prestigious "Legend Of Live Award" at the Billboard Touring Awards in honour of the band's significant and lasting contributions to live music and the touring business, and in acknowledgement of their commitment to the fans and the art of performing live.
Journey will be joining the tour with their line-up of Neal Schon (guitars, backing vocals), Jonathan Cain (keyboards, backing vocals), Ross Valory (bass, backing vocals), Deen Castronovo (drums, percussion, backing vocals) and Arnel Pineda (lead vocals). Journey's Neal Schon said of the tour: "Looking forward to getting back to the UK and playing our best for you all. You guys are the very best, cheers and see you soon. We will be rocking!"
Co-headlining the 2013 tour are the legendary Whitesnake who carry a rightful & righteous reputation as one of the world's leading rock'n'roll bands.
Founded and formed by Deep Purple singer David Coverdale, the band have earned multi-platinum albums and multiple top 10 hits worldwide, including 2 number 1 singles with 'Here I Go Again' and 'Is This Love' as well as the unforgettable hammer of 'Still Of The Night'. Bombast, bravado, talent and passion have helped establish Whitesnake as the perennial platinum favourite they have become and they're back with a vengeance in 2013, with plans to release a live DVD ahead of the tour as well as a double album."Unfinished business..."
As Coverdale says slyly. "We all wanted the last tour to continue as we got closer to the end...After a year in the studio we're ready to rock on stage again...We're coming back for more..." Harnessing Coverdale's blues and soul roots & fuelled by incendiary guitarists Doug Aldrich & Reb Beach you have all the elements needed to shape the 'Snake's hard rock identity.
Special guests Thunder will also be joining the UK dates.
In 2009 the band went their separate ways, only to return in 2011 for a triumphant live performance at the High Voltage festival in London, followed by 2 sell out Christmas shows. Thunder returned for another 2 sell-out Christmas shows in 2012, with the date first selling out in just 6 hours.
The band has been lured back on to the stage for next year's tour with Journey and Whitesnake. Singer Danny Bowes says: "We'd already discussed possibly doing some shows next year, so this is perfect, and it's a great bill, like they used to be back in the day, it'll be a brilliant night out".

Governance Tools & Resources
MRSC Tools and Resources
This webpage describes some public participation basics in Washington State and in general. Most major local government actions require public notice and opportunity for public review and comment. The Legal Guidance section presents statutes/rules that require extensive public participation when adopting comprehensive plans and development regulations. In addition, the state Open Public Meetings Act requires that all meetings of governing bodies of public agencies, including cities and counties, be open and accessible to the public. Public hearings are required for a long list of state and local government actions as noted in this section. Similarly, the section provides information about public records that must be available to the public.
The Guidebooks and Public Participation Framework section describes frameworks for considering the appropriate level of participation for different situations. It also provides links to many helpful "how to" participation guides available online, and to other organizations with helpful public participation resources.
Local governments will have different communication needs and a varying need for citizen comment or involvement depending on the particular type of situation. At times, local governments will simply want to get the word out to citizens about a new service or program, an upcoming meeting or event, or a temporary service disruption. Similarly, local governments may want to make educational or issue background information available. Or, it is sometimes important to raise awareness about government accomplishments and successes. At other times, communities may want to gather information or opinions from citizens, or even recruit citizens to study issues in depth and then provide advice. In other situations, it may be quite fruitful to work directly with the public and even partner with citizens to develop alternatives, creative ideas, and solutions to community-wide concerns. Several organizations have created simple "spectrums" or continuums of participation levels as a framework for considering appropriate levels of participation. As a second step, they have developed matrices that are helpful in matching the type of participation technique that is best suited for specific participation objectives and specific situations. Probably the first and still one of the best frameworks is the IAP2 Spectrum of Public Participation, and the accompanying Public Participation Toolbox matrices prepared by the International Association for Public Participation. Here are several participation frameworks developed by other organizations that can help clarify what the public engagement needs are, and what participation tools best match participation objectives.
There are many helpful "how to" guidebooks available online:

(KTSF by Sean Au)
Two days after the San Francisco's municipal elections, Ed Lee is still in the lead with 60% of the voters in the mayoral race. Lee had claimed victory on Wednesday evening. Initial analysis of the poll shows that Lee carried 8 out of 11 districts in the City. The other 3 districts are won by John Avalos.
A day after claiming victory, Ed Lee first went to Chinatown and the Sunset District to thank voters. Lee said that he's appreciative of many voters who registered to vote and actually voted for the first time when they learned that there is a strong chance of electing the City first Chinese American mayor. Lee was accompanied by his wife Anita.
Some voters are moved that the City finally has a Chinese American leader but they also hold high hopes for Lee to improve the City's economy.
Ed Lee said that he picked the 4 busy commercial corridors to visit, shows his commitment to get back to work to focus on the economy. Within the next few weeks, Lee will also announce details about his $5 million plan to help small businesses.
Sunset District Supervisor Carmen Chu, who also chairs the Board of Supervisors budget committee, said she's going to work with the mayor to find this fund. "We are going to have to look very closely to it. We are at a time when we still anticipate we will have a budget deficit, so it's going to be where we will re-prioritize," said Chu.

What do Costa Rica, happiness, and the Fort Lewis College Achievement Award have in common? In his decade of work, Associate Professor of Psychology Brian Burke has shown deep dedication to the college's staff, faculty, and students, as well as the Durango community. Per the American Psychological Association's mantra to "give psychology away," Dr. Burke has spread his enthusiasm off campus to the new Durango Discovery Museum, an interactive science center, shared his expertise in Durango Herald articles and an NPR short, and trained Axis, San Juan Basin Health, La Plata Youth Services, and Durango School District 9-R staff in Motivational Interviewing, an evidence-based counseling approach.
People are affected by environmental changes. For example, climate warming may lead to more carbon dioxide emissions from Arctic soils to the atmosphere, leading to greater warming, leading to an increase in mosquitoes and a greater risk of diseases carried by mosquitoes for people and wildlife.
"That means that as a society, we need to include these complex interactions across ecological systems in our planning to ensure we can 'live with' the conditions we create," explains Assistant Professor of Biology Heidi Steltzer, recipient of the 2013 New Faculty Award.
At any college or university, there are the faculty who teach and research and there are the staff who get the faculty the resources they need to do the best job they can do. Getting those resources, whether it is grant funding or assistance from the federal government, is the job of Ms. Angela Rochat, director of the Fort Lewis College Office of Sponsored Research and Federal Relations and recipient of the 2013 Outstanding Staff Award.
"I became interested in athletic training when I took a basic principles of athletic training class," says John Jewell. "My professor's love for athletic training was evident, and her excitement for what she did made me want to see what athletic training was all about."
"Once I started, I couldn't imagine doing any other major," he adds.
"Martha Stewart throws a really great party," says 2005 Art graduate Chris Lyon. And he would know. Lyon was honored in October by Martha Stewart at the "2012 Martha Stewart Presents American Made Awards," at which Stewart and the editors of Martha Stewart Living magazine feted the 10 finalists in their search for "rising stars in a new generation of small-business owners."
