The Christchurch Coastal Pathway Group (CCPG) is proposing that the quake-damaged water's edge is rebuilt with an international standard pathway incorporated along it. The most urgent need is from Scarborough to Ferrymead Bridge, and that it should form the beginning of an eventual greenway onwards into the CBD via the river ways.
The coastal communities of Sumner, Redcliffs and Mt Pleasant were badly damaged in the February, June and December earthquakes of 2012. Community representatives have come together and identified that a coastal pathway is the most highly desired/needed piece of infrastructure for the area. They've established a group with a significant body of skilled people wanting to see the project established. They've gathered many hundreds of local supporters in a short time.
A safe Christchurch walking pathway is so desired largely because of the high number of walkers/cyclists living near the hills and beaches, but also because historically, Main Rd and Ferry Rd have been over-represented in the cyclist crash statistics.
Such a pathway would not only be a great metropolitan and tourism asset for Christchurch, offering access from city to beaches and hills, but also letting workers from the coastal communities commute safely into the new cycle-friendly CBD and local children to school.
Representatives of the CCPG have been working to try to convince council to plan ahead for such an amenity before they begin piecemeal repairs in the area.
CCPG currently has a working group of 25 and a paid up supporter base of 150. We meet monthly on the 4th Tuesday of the month at 7pm at the Mt Pleasant Temporary Community Centre, 3 McCormacks Bay Road. All supporters welcome.
Chair: Tim Lindley
Treasurer: Janine Banbury
Secretary: Maria Simmonds
Committee: Linda Rutland, Mike Sleigh, Angela Woodward, Graham Colley, Sue Lazar, Alasdair Hutchison and Bryan Inch
Tim Lindley (Chair)
Tim has lived on Mt Pleasant for around 25 years and loves the way we can so easily get out and enjoy our stunning natural environment of hills, estuary and seaside. Tim is a science consultant and managing director of Aspire for Life Ltd an on-line food, health and fitness company. Tim is a keen sea kayaker and sees the Christchurch Coastal Pathway as an essential city asset which will encourage people of all abilities to enjoy the good life Christchurch has to offer even more.
Maria Simmonds (Secretary)
Maria has lived in Sumner for 20 years with her husband Richard and loves the seaside
lifestyle and all the opportunities it offers: boogie boarding at Taylor's, kayaking on the
estuary, hill walking, bird spotting at McCormack's Bay, the limitless opportunities for
photographs and having a village on her doorstep. A submission she made to council in
2009, for a walkway from Sumner to Monck's Bay went nowhere. She is therefore delighted that a 6.5km coastal pathway will now be a reality. Maria has worked as a teacher for 27 years, ten years of this teaching students with special educational needs. Currently she works part-time as an itinerant teacher of mainstreamed students with special needs.
As a keen walker, swimmer and cyclist, Maria is looking forward to walking and cycling on our world- class pathway and to swimming in the saltwater pool.
Janine Banbury (Treasurer)
Janine lived on Mt Pleasant for over 20 years, where she and her husband Bruce brought up their two daughters, before moving to Sumner 8 years ago. Janine grew up in New Plymouth, and still visits her hometown regularly. The New Plymouth walkway (now 10 years old) has become a fundamental element in the lifestyle of both locals
and visitors. Seeing its success has driven her passion for the Christchurch Coastal Pathway. "I love walking, biking or just sitting and watching the sea and people on the New Plymouth walkway. I love that their walkway is a facility for everyone – the elderly, the young, individuals, families, walkers, cyclists, motorised scooters, wheelchairs, skateboarders, surfers and commuters to use as they see fit, whilst enjoying the shared space and the amazing views on offer.
Janine, along with being a Director and co-owner of three small businesses, also
works in Bruce's architectural practice, Banbury Architects.
She walks the beach daily, loves travelling (intrepidly and not so intrepid), has a strong
interest in New Zealand Contemporary art, and loves spending the summer swimming and body boarding at Taylor's Mistake.
Graham Colley
Graham and his wife Dorothy are Redcliffs residents and passionate about the 'riviera' of Christchurch, our piece of stunning coastline from Ferrymead to Scarborough .The people of our city deserve a world class coastal pathway so that all ages can fully appreciate, interact and enjoy this asset, and show it off with pride to our visitors.
It is my privilege to be part of the executive committee for the Christchurch Coastal Pathway Group. In my business life I am a director of 4 companies, with a background in Sales and Marketing. In my 'community life' I have been involved with school boards, Lions International, Save the Children Fund and am currently involved as a trustee of a charitable fund directed towards medical needs.
As keen walkers and lovers of the Port Hills, it is extremely exciting to be part of this project which will showcase our city's interaction with the coastline and the Port Hills, inject vitality, vibe and growth into the local communities, and provide a 'must do ' attraction for both Christchurch residents and our visitors.
Alisdair Hutchinson
Alisdair was raised on Clifton Hill in Sumner. His interest in the Estuary developed in the early 1970's when he joined the Christchurch Estuary Association, organised a small boat flotilla up the Heathcote River to show city councillors its potential for recreation, and wrote a geography thesis about conflicts in the administration and use of the Estuary. In 1974 he joined the Commission for the Environment in Wellington undertaking environmental audits of government projects. In 1987 he returned to Christchurch (and Sumner) to manage the Ministry for the Environment's South Island Office retiring in 2010. Alisdair was a member of the establishment group for the Avon-Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust later becoming a board member and overseeing protection of the foreshore for public access and use. His main recreational interest involves mucking about with small boats.
Bryan Inch
Bryan and his wife Jacqui are in the process of rebuilding their house on Richmond Hill and looking forward to getting back to the Sumner area. Bryan is self-employed as an Independent Director and Business Consultant. He has spent over 20 years in senior management of the banking industry both in New Zealand and internationally, mostly with Rabobank, and also 3 years as Chief Executive of CBS Canterbury Building Society.
Bryan is currently a Director of; McCashin's Brewery, 26000 Ltd, Duncan Forestry Ltd,
Partners Finance Advisory Board and Executive Director of Brownrigg Agriculture (Hawkes Bay).
Bryan was attracted to the vision created by the Pathway Group and is looking forward to working with the community to develop an outstanding outdoor area and facility for all to enjoy.
Sue Lazar
Sue has lived in the Sumner / Redcliffs area for 32 years. She has been a keen runner since the early 1980′s and has run regularly in the area. She is now an avid cyclist and owns a small dog therefore it's a very bad day if she doesn't walk, run or cycle in the area.
Sue is a director of a busy Property Management Company so communication and multi-tasking are high on her skills list. She has been on numerous local committees including getting the Redcliffs Crèche established in Barnett Park and the hall built in Redcliffs Primary School.
Sue is extremely passionate about the Christchurch Coastal Pathway and believes locals
and visitors all deserve to experience what she gets to see and do everyday on a safe, stunning, informative pathway.
Linda Rutland (Inaugural Chair)
Linda has lived in Mt Pleasant for the past 20 years. Being a hill dweller living close to the edge of the Avon Heathcote Estuary Linda has always wanted better and safer accessibility to the coastline, enabling people to freely enjoy this stunning coastal location. Linda has a background in advocacy, local government and fundraising.
Mike Sleigh
Mike has lived in Sumner for 14 years. He is a keen fisherman and in the summer frequently uses a small boat based at the Sumner Fishing and Boating Club slipway for fishing in the bay. Mike also enjoys catching up with people on the Esplanade and beach. In his professional life he has significant experience in major infrastructure development, planning and environmental law and tourism businesses. He is a former founding trustee of the Otamahua / Quail Island Ecological Restoration Trust.
Angela Woodward (Ngāi Tahu, Ngāti Kahungunu)
Angela and her husband Andrew have lived in Sumner for four years and can often be seen walking their two dogs around the village and beach. Angela grew up in Christchurch, regularly visiting Sumner in the weekends and, after a 12-year stint in the United Kingdom, she is pleased to finally call Sumner home. After living in crowded
London and risking life and limb cycling to work there, she appreciates the natural
environment of these seaside suburbs all the more now and can't wait to be able to safely cycle all the way to Ferrymead – and beyond – on the coastal pathway. Angela has visited many such pathways on her work travels around the world and feels that it is about time we had a world class pathway to welcome visitors from all over Christchurch and the world to enjoy our beautiful natural environment and learn about our local history. Angela works in project management and fundraising in the non-profit sector.
Liz Studholme (Coordinator)
Liz Studholme has lived in Sumner for 10 years. Weekends are spent on The Esplanade and beach or up in the surrounding hills. Liz has worked in Advertising and Marketing and enjoyed working on some of NZ's well known brands. She has also worked in fundraising for The Christchurch City Mission and Pillars Inc. 'I feel so lucky to be involved in this project. There are so many great reasons to get behind the pathway. It will have something for everyone and be an icon for our new city. The coastline here is like none other; alps, hills, sea, village and estuary and so close to the city centre. It doesn't matter what the weather, it never fails to inspire'

In a bombshell case, former FBI translator and whistle-blower Sibel Edmonds claims U.S. officials were involved in selling classified nuclear weapons secrets to the highest bidder: Turkey, Israel, Pakistan and non-state terrorist groups.
"I'd say what she has is far more explosive than the Pentagon Papers," said Daniel Ellsberg, the Pentagon whistle-blower who revealed the government's early knowledge that the Vietnam War would not be won.
As a translator, Edmonds overheard countless hours of diplomatic com-munication secretly recorded by FBI investigations.
"If you made public all the information that the FBI have on this case, you will see very high-level people going through criminal trials," Edmonds told London's Sunday Times.
Edmonds discovered information about members of the U.S. government involved in what she labeled "treason."
"I can tell you there are a lot of people involved, a lot of ranking officials and a lot of illegal activities that include multi-billion dollar drug smuggling operations, black market nuclear sales to terrorists and unsavory regimes — you name it," she told journalist Christopher Deliso. "And of course a lot of people from abroad are involved. It's massive."
One official Edmonds named as selling secrets to foreign operatives is Mark Grossman, the former U.S. ambassador to Turkey.
"He was aiding foreign operatives against U.S. interests by passing them highly classified information … in exchange for money, position and political objectives," she said.
Grossman denies the allegations.
Edmonds claims Israeli and Turkish moles were planted in academic institutions across the United States and were involved in several exchanges of nuclear secrets per month.
These nuclear secrets made their way into Pakistan's nuclear program, and were then sold to Iran, Libya, North Korea and possibly terrorist groups like al-Qaida, which is known to be close to Pakistan's spy agency, the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI).
Edmonds' revelations appear to involve the American Turkish Council, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee and a number of leading neoconservatives like Richard Perle and Douglas Feith.
The FBI Inspector General, former colleagues, retired and active counter-proliferation CIA agents, as well as several sitting U.S. senators and whistle-blower advocacy groups have all confirmed Edmonds' and her story as "very credible."
After five years of trying to get justice and accountability through the FBI, Congress and the judiciary, Edmonds has tried to get U.S. mainstream media to cover her story, with little success.
"I'm not the only one who knows about this," Edmonds said. "Too many people know about this. The fraudulent 9/11 commissioners — every single one of them knows about my case. [People in the Congress, Justice Department and FBI] — they know. The truth is going to hurt them."

White House Meeting A Last Stab At A Fiscal Deal
By DAVID ESPO and JIM KUHNHENN
WASHINGTON (AP) â¿¿ The end game at hand, the White House and Senate leaders made a final stab at compromise Friday night to prevent middle-class tax increases from taking effect at the turn of the new year and possibly block sweeping spending cuts as well.
"I'm optimistic we may still be able to reach an agreement that can pass both houses in time," President Barack Obama said at the White House after meeting for more than an hour with top lawmakers from both houses.
Surprisingly, after weeks of postelection gridlock, Senate leaders sounded even more bullish.
The Republican leader, Sen. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, said he was "hopeful and optimistic" of a deal that could be presented to rank-and-file lawmakers as early as Sunday, a little more than 24 hours before the year-end deadline. Said Majority Leader Harry Reid: "I'm going to do everything I can" to prevent the tax increases and spending cuts that threaten to send the economy into recession. He cautioned, "Whatever we come up with is going to be imperfect." House Speaker John Boehner, a Republican who has struggled recently with anti-tax rebels inside his own party, said through an aide he would await the results of the talks between the Senate and White House. Under a timetable sketched by congressional aides, any agreement would first go to the Senate for a vote. The House would then be asked to assent, possibly as late as Jan. 2, the final full day before a new Congress takes office. Officials said there was a general understanding that any agreement would block scheduled income tax increases for middle class earners while letting rates rise at upper income levels. Democrats said Obama was sticking to his campaign call for increases above $250,000 in annual income, even though in recent negotiations he said he could accept $400,000.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

I am allowing users to upload files to my server. What possible security threats do I face and how can I eliminate them?
I will try to be a more specific. Lets say I am allowing users to upload images to my server either from their system or from net.Now to check even the size of these images I have to store them in my /tmp folder. Isn't it risky? How can I minimize the risk?
Also lets say I am using wget to download the images from the link that the users upload in my form. I first have to save those files in my server to check if they actually are images.Also what if a prankster gives me a url and I end up downloading an entire website full of malware?

Several nights ago, after presenting to a group on the value of combining fitness and diet to achieve safe weight loss, I was approached by an audience member who I'll refer to as "Mary."
Mary shared with me that she belonged to a fitness club but was "utterly and thoroughly" intimidated by the number of different machines, how to operate them, and the proper weight she should use to complete her target number of repetitions and sets.
Her concern speaks for many people who have shared with me feelings of self-consciousness as they make an effort to embrace fitness but are stifled by a lack of knowledge about what to do or how to begin. In the health club environment, many people will resort mostly to choosing one piece of equipment (usually cardio) and make that the only device they use regularly.
What this translates to is that a person can pay upwards of $35 or more per month to use one piece of equipment. Talk about a profitable business!
In an economy that has put increased leverage on the value of service, health club members should consider it a reasonable expectation to find out the level of support that is part of their membership. Too often, club members resign themselves to having to "figure things out" instead of asking club personnel for assistance. This can result in injury, boredom, and failure to achieve desired results.
While profitability and added revenue streams through personal training are often the end game of member support, I always recommend that gym "newbies" or those wishing to gain a better understanding of fitness machines approach staff members. Ideally, a personal trainer who is not working with a client is a great person to ask. If you can't find any, ask the front desk personnel if anyone is available to give you assistance.
While many gyms and trainers want to charge a fee for information, those gyms with a true commitment to customer service won't hesitate to get a member started on a machine, help them find the proper baseline weight to begin a set, or make recommendations as to how they can approach their fitness programs.
For individuals considering using a personal trainer, there is no better litmus of evaluating a trainer's interest in helping you become successful, than how helpful they are when approached with a need for information or assistance.
In defense of personal trainers, their willingness to assist you with a movement or completing a tough repetition should not always be construed as a "sales effort." There are many trainers who enjoy helping people get the most they can from their workouts and are not hesitant to offer instructional suggestions or offer assistance.
Today's fitness club member should consider themselves "empowered" to utilize all the services that are available to them.

Document Type Master's Dissertation Author Strauss, PG email@example.com URN etd-06022005-131248 Document Title Decision-making in agriculture : a farm-level modelling approach Degree MSc Agric Department Agricultural Economics, Extension and Rural Development Supervisor
Advisor Name Title Mr F Meyer Committee Chair Keywords
- Agricultural decision-making
- business strategy
- policy decisions
- representative farms
- Farm simulation models
Date 2005-05-30 Availability unrestricted Abstract In the past decade South Africa experienced major political and economic changes. In addition to these major changes, South Africa is a highly diverse country and a country of extremes in many respects. Within this dynamic and diverse environment the agricultural sector has to survive and grow financially. In order to survive and grow, good decision-making within the agricultural sector in terms of policies and business strategies is extremely important and necessary. However, within the dynamic and extreme environment it is very difficult for decision-makers to make correct decisions since the likely impact of changes in markets and policies is difficult to quantify.The general objective of this dissertation is to identify and construct a type of farm-level model that will have the ability to quantify the likely impact of change in markets and policies on the financial viability of a representative farm. The specific objective is to construct a model of a representative grain and livestock farm in the Reitz district, Free State province, South Africa.
The approach to farm-level modelling that is followed is a positivistic approach since questions of "what is the likely impact" is asked, and not "what ought to be" questions. Apart from behavioural equations, this farm-level simulation model also consists of accounting identities. The model is of a deterministic type since explanatory and descriptive types of questions need to be answered.
The development of this farm-level model contributes to research in the field of farm-level modelling in South Africa due to the fact that it has the ability to simulate the impact of changes in markets and policies on a representative farm's financial position. This is done by linking the farm-level model to a sector-level model developed by Meyer (2002) as well as outputs from several other institutions in terms of macro-economic variables and social variables. There are, however, several issues that became clear in this study. Firstly, positivistic simulation models have the disadvantage that validation and verification are difficult and time consuming due to lack of accurate and detailed data. Secondly, due to the positivistic nature of the model, the assumption is made that very little adjustment in terms of the farm structure takes place during the simulation process. One possible solution to this problem of not being able to simulate adaptation to changing conditions is to develop a model following a normative approach. The third problem with specifically the deterministic type of model is the fact that the model and simulation process assumes no risk. Lastly, in following the positivistic approach, the modeller needs theoretical as well as practical knowledge and understanding of the system modelled and simulated, in order to simulate reality as closely as possible.

While the Wildkittens (9-12) managed to find their lowest deficit of the season to the Lady Bears (16-4), and ended up with a 24-point, 44-20 loss, the Wildcats (4-17) were handed a 39-point, 76-37 loss by the sharpshooting Bears (9-10).
On Nov. 12 the two teams faced off in a Hall of Fame game in which Tellico came out ahead by 36 points, 73-37, over Polk. Then, on Dec. 10, the Wildkittens were able to hold the Lady Bears to a 30-point, 56-26 win at Tellico.
Despite a closer game on the scoreboard this time around, Wildkittens' head coach Johnny Hayes felt that his team's performance was marred by the same issues that have been haunting them all season.
"If you look at the scoreboard I guess you could say that the loss was a little less, but nonetheless we're still performing the same. We're turning the ball over and not making shots, which has been our story for a while now," Hayes stated.
Tellico was able to get a quick lead over Polk, as they outscored them 14-0 in the first quarter.
"Not being able to produce on the offensive end is really hurting us," Hayes said. You can't expect to do well when you can't score a point in the first quarter."
The Wildkittens were almost evenly matched with the Lady Bears in the second, as they were only outscored 8-7.
Trailing 22-7 to start the second half, Polk was unable to muster up the offensive effort required to tame Tellico, which was able to score 11 points in each of the remaining quarters.
Polk, on the other hand was able to score eight points in the third quarter and five points in the fourth.
Makayla McClary led the Wildkittens with a total of five points in the game, with Heather McLain and Hannah Withrow each chipping in four points of their own.
Both McLain and Withrow had five rebounds each, with McClary getting four rebounds and four steals.
Bella Liner had two assists and two rebounds
The Wildkittens hit only eight of their 21 attempted buckets, went 4-for-10 from the charity stripe and were 0-for-7 from behind the arc.
"We're getting shots, we're just not putting them in. We're trying to focus more in practice on shooting with pressure. You've got to be able to hit the shot whether or not there's another girl in your face," Hayes said.
While their female counterparts saw their lowest deficit against the Lady Bears Tuesday evening, the Wildcats were faced their largest deficit at the hands of the Bears this season.
At the Hall of Fame game Polk faced a 17-point, 63-46 loss to Tellico, but was able to cut the deficit to just 14 points in their Dec. 10, 51-37 loss.
Tuesday night's lackluster performance resulted in a 39-point loss for the struggling Wildcats, much to the dismay of head coach Rusty Brewer.
"This was definitely not what I was looking for tonight. We obviously didn't come ready to play," Brewer said.
Unlike the Wildkittens, the Wildcats were at least able to put up five points on the board in the first quarter, but at the same time the Bears racked up 24 points in the first eight minutes.
"We had shots early but just didn't knock them down and get in a rhythm in the game," Brewer acknowledged.
Finishing the second quarter with only five more points, Polk trailed Tellico by a score of 46-10 at the half.
The Wildcats were able to jolt their offense to life in the second half, coming back in the third quarter with 16 points.
Unfortunately for Polk, Tellico continued to dominate with a 21 point quarter.
The Wildcats held up the Bears offensive charge in the fourth quarter, and outscored their opponents 11-9.
Will Richmond led Polk in scoring with a total of seven points, while Gage Locke, Devin Weber and Bryce Coffey notched six points apiece.
Polk County will host Tennessee Christian on Friday evening.

Teamboat Springs @ Blizzard Beach & The Wave Pool @ Typhoon Lagoon.
crush and gusher would have been nice...but it wasn't an option
Day 1 WDW Radio
Keep to the code
I'd have to say Splash Mountain (great story), though we very rarely ever ride it since the rest of my family doesn't like the drop.
I voted for Splash Mountain, but I also would like to note that Grizzly River Run at California Adventure is quite good (superior to Kali River, imo). But I figured this was limited to WDW rides so I didn't vote for "other".
If we can dream it, we can do it
Had to go ith Splash Mountain. We were at WDW in November and my oldest daughter and I rode it countless times. Cool thing was, I noticed something different every time.
You may not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth may be the best thing in the world for you.
Walt Disney
Kali River Rapids is underated...when you ride that with random other families its like your one party all together for that ride. My wife and I rode it on our honeymoon, we ended up riding with a family from Kentucky, we rode and talked the whole time wondering who would be the one or two that got completely soaked on the big drop (someone always gets all the water). we had so much fun we went on it three times in a row as a group, my wife and I and this other family who we didnt even know. We kept riding it and laughing and teasing each other about who would get the big wave of water next. *magical moment*

I don't get Kali. It would be OK if there was a thrilling part, but to me it seems kind of like having a car accident while water gets gratuitously dumped on your head. It's not scary, it's not delightful, it's just... wet. IMO of course.
My kids and husband like it, though, so to each his/her own!
Love Pirates of Carribean!!! The drop is the best part and I always get wet!! Too scared to go on Splash Mountain... sorry!

Gotta' go with PotC!
First rode the original at Disneyland back in '68. Will be back on it again, for the first time since '87, next Thursday!
Have been on the WDW version(s) many times.
Some of you may find this shocking (sarcasm alert) but I think Pirates was better before the movie rehab. I liked the talking skull who warned you about the waterfall, I liked how the Yo Ho song played throughout the ride, and I don't see any particular need to see Johnny Depp anywhere in POTC. I'm starting to wonder if I'm just a cranky old man or are these "improvements" really detriments?
My vote goes to Splash Mountain! It is really an awesome ride. I rode many times and ever enjoy on it. I think it is one of the great Disneys all rides (not only water rides). I must to do when we have been there.
Best Regards,
(Insert comment here).

VWerks Ram KTS is a Ram Runner aftermarket-style
Chrysler first introduced us to its Ram Runner exactly two years ago at SEMA, but for buyers of this Raptor-like truck who don't want to go through dealerships for the upgrades, VWerks has just the thing. Looking every bit as mean as the dealer-built Ram Runner, the VWerks Ram KTS gets a wide-body treatment and upgraded off-road performance suspension similar to its Mopar contemporary.
Starting life as your everyday Ram 1500, the Ram KTS on display at SEMA features a beefed-up KORE long-travel suspension system and off-road tires that allows the truck to tackle tough terrain at high speeds. From there, VWerks also added wider front and rear fenders, matte black 17-inch wheels and a Flowmaster performance cat-back exhaust system. For buyers looking for the rough and rugged look of the KTS but not needing the high-speed, off-road abilities, VWerks also offers the Baja Series kit that replaces the performance suspension system with a set of 20-inch wheels.
The VWerks Ram KTS and Ram Baja Series kits are available on any 2009 through 2013 model year Ram 1500, but there is no word on pricing for either kit yet. Scroll down for more information about both kits, and check out the KTS in our live gallery above.

Adrian, MI (November, 2012) – VWerks, an off road parts manufacturer and specialty vehicle builder, debuted at the 2012 SEMA Show a new vehicle program, the Ram Baja KTS Series. Designed to merge high speed desert racing technology with jaw-dropping looks and daily-driver comfort, this exclusive new truck challenges the Ford Raptor for high-speed supremacy. Available in two different stages, the Ram KTS series was designed to cross any terrain at full throttle while the Ram Baja is aimed for truck enthusiasts who want the KTS's menacing looks and stance, but don't need long-travel race ready suspension.
"The Ford Raptor has been very successful and there hasn't been a new, easily accessible Ram counterpart," said Jeff Wyatt, CEO of Venchurs. "Whether you want an actual high speed desert racer, or an aggressive looking truck to drive you to and from work, VWerks has an option for you."
The VWerks Baja KTS Conversion for 2009-2013 Ram 1500s features KORE "Tactical Series" Suspension, KTS front and rear fenders, 17" Matte Black Method Wheels, BFG Baja tires, Flowmaster Performance Cat-Back Exhaust and VWerks badging. Additional options include KTS front bumper with light bar, Baja Designs light sets and mounts, KTS rear tire carrier, VWerks rear floor mats and deluxe leather seats with VWerks logos.
For those who don't plan to do a lot of desert racing but still want an aggressive looking truck for the daily grind, the VWerks Baja Series conversion for 2009-2013 Ram 1500 trucks is the solution. Features include a VWerks 1.75" leveling kit, 20" KMC XD Black Monster Wheels, BFG tires, KTS front and rear fenders and VWerks badging. Additional options include Flowmaster Performance Cat-Back Exhaust, KTS front bumper with light bar, Baja Designs light sets and mounts, KTS rear tire carrier, VWerks rear floor mats and deluxe leather seats with VWerks logos.
In addition to the Ram program, VWerks also hosts a vehicle program for Jeep Wranglers offered direct to both dealers and customers, consisting of five packages for JKs, each with increasing levels of equipment and hardware. Whether in a Ram or a Jeep, VWerks builds vehicles that help customers celebrate their passions and meet the needs of their lifestyles.

Pre-medical* students are strongly encouraged to talk to the Pre-professional Advisor to learn about the requirements for medical* school. The standard pre-medical course requirements can be completed by the student majoring in neuroscience. Because medical schools require 2 semesters of biology lecture and laboratory, pre-medical students should take CELL 2110 as one of their laboratory requirements plus either EEOB 1010/1110 or CELL 3010/ 3020 or CELL 3110/3120 in addition to the neuroscience co-requisite courses. EEOB 1010/1110 counts as an elective lecture course, as does CELL 3010 or 3110. CELL 3020 or 3120 would count as one of the three required laboratory courses.
* Note: Pre-dental and Pre-veterinary students also are encouraged to talk to the Pre-professional Advisor
A student who plans to study abroad for a semester or year, should talk to his/her college advisor and the neuroscience major representative, Dr. Beth Wee, about possible courses which are equivalent to Tulane courses. Once these courses have been identified, the student should take the course descriptions to each faculty member who teaches a similar course at Tulane and let that person decide whether or not the course really is equivalent. If it is, then the faculty member should sign the paper with the course description, indicating that it is an acceptable substitute. The student, his or her advisor, and the neuroscience office (via Dr. Wee) all should keep copies of these approved course descriptions. In some cases, a course NOT offered at Tulane, may still be acceptable as an elective, but this should be cleared with Dr. Wee and the student's college advisor. All of these arrangements should be done BEFORE the student leaves for the semester abroad. Students are advised to keep a syllabus from each course taken abroad to verify the course's content.
A student who at the time of graduation has achieved a cumulative grade-point average of at least 3.600 and has completed the Honors Program requirements will be awarded the degree magna cum laude. The degree summa cum laude is reserved for students who have achieved a cumulative grade-point average of at least 3.800 and have completed the Honors Program requirements upon graduation. These distinctions are reserved for Tulane Honors Students only.
To be eligible for departmental honors, a student must earn a cumulative grade-point average of a least 3.400 and a grade-point average of at least 3.500 in courses counting toward the major, must complete an honors thesis or project, and must fulfill all of the department's other requirements for honors.
More information can be obtained from the Honors Program.
An honors thesis is a year-long research project conducted during the senior year. Neuroscience majors are not required to do an honors thesis. Successful completion of an honors thesis qualifies the student to graduate with departmental and university honors and is required for candidates for the degrees of summa cum laude and magna cum laude in Newcomb College or Tulane College. For specific information about the requirements for graduating with Honors, contact the Honors Program, 119 Norman Mayer Hall, 865-5517.
An empirical research project is required for an Honors Thesis in Neuroscience. An empirical research project includes the design, implementation, analysis, and write-up of an original experiment that tests a specific scientific hypothesis. Non-laboratory projects, such as papers based solely on library research, clinical internships, or community service activities, do not meet the standards of an Honors Thesis in Neuroscience. Completion of an Honors Thesis in Neuroscience requires two full semesters, typically conducted during the senior year. A student should only attempt an Honor Thesis in Neuroscience under the guidance of a faculty member with whom Independent Study has been pursued during one or more previous semesters.
Note : No student may receive academic credit for research activities if that student receives a salary or stipend for those activities. This policy applies to research conducted during the academic year and during the summer.
No later than the spring of your junior year, you should select a Neuroscience faculty member to serve as your thesis director. You might begin by approaching one of your instructors, or your Neuroscience major advisor. You also should review the list of Neuroscience research faculty, to learn about the research interests of the Neuroscience faculty members.
Students should be aware that space in faculty laboratories is limited. Thus, students are strongly encouraged to contact the faculty member well before the end of the spring semester of their junior year. Once the faculty member has agreed to serve as your thesis director, make plans with him or her to carry out preliminary work for the thesis during the spring or summer before your senior year.
Students should sign up for Honors Thesis credit, NSCI 4990 in the fall, and NSCI 5000 in the spring, of the senior year. In order to sign up for NSCI 5000, students need to complete the Honors Approval Form and return it to the Neuroscience Program office. Students should go to the Honors Program Office (119 Norman Mayer) to pick up the guidelines and schedule well in advance of your registration for an honors thesis. Students who are doing an Honor's Thesis will need to fill out the Tulane Honor's Thesis and Neuroscience Honor's Thesis forms. The completed forms should be turned in to the Neuroscience Office, 2013 Stern Hall, to get a section number and be cleared to do the Honor's thesis. For additional information, look at the honors program and the honors thesis web pages.
By midway through the first semester, the student must submit a prospectus to the Honors Program that has been approved and signed by the thesis director and a second reader. A first progress report, approved and signed by the thesis director and the second reader at the end of the first semester, indicates whether the thesis is to be continued or terminated. A second progress report is due in the middle of the second semester. A complete draft of the thesis is due to the honors thesis committee a month before the projected date of graduation. The thesis must be completed two weeks before graduation, and the oral examination is held after all other requirements have been met.
Students must secure prior approval for honors theses from the appropriate ethics committees by the end of the first semester of their senior year. Approval of empirical studies with human subjects or animal subjects must be obtained from the appropriate internal review board. Students should consult with their thesis advisors regarding this process. Review and approval normally requires at least one month. Therefore, it is important that all forms be submitted by the thesis advisor to the appropriate committee NO LATER THAN November 15.
Research proposals, submitted in late January to the Honors Program office as the "first chapter," must include an introduction and complete methodology. Before submission to the Honors Program office, the proposal must be approved by a committee comprised of the thesis director, and another faculty member, who will serve as the second reader. The proposal must be approved before the data for the primary study are collected.
Yes, however, students must adhere to the same guidelines as those given [below] for Independent Study projects.
Students who wish to perform an independent study project at another institution must have two faculty sponsors: One at the host institution, and one in the Neuroscience Major. The student must obtain prior approval from the Neuroscience sponsor for the project. The sponsor will communicate with the host institution sponsor to make sure that the work being performed meets our major requirements for independent study projects. Also, the grade for the project will be submitted by the Neuroscience sponsor, in consultation with the host institution sponsor.
At the beginning of the project, your host institution sponsor must submit, by letter or e-mail, a description of the project to your Neuroscience sponsor. It is essential that your Neuroscience sponsor and your host institution sponsor communicate with one another to evaluate your final work; otherwise, an incomplete grade may result.
Students may sign up for Independent study credit as NSCI 4910 (fall) or NSCI 4920 (spring). Independent study forms are available from the Neuroscience Office, 2013 Stern Hall. This form must be completed by the student in consultation with and signed by the faculty member(s) supervising the research. After the completed form is returned to Sherrie in the Neuroscience office, the student will be cleared to add the independent study to his/her schedule.
Students may fulfill their capstone requirement by completion of one of the following:
Note: If a student is doing a double major with one degree (e.g., B.S. OR B.A., completing 120 hours), and the other major requires a capstone, then the student does not need to complete a capstone in Neuroscience. However, if a student is completing a dual degree (e.g., B.S. AND B.A., completing 150 hours) with two majors, then capstones must be completed in each major.
The following three credit Neuroscience lecture courses may have an optional service learning component which fulfill the second tier Service requirement if taken after the student has completed 60 credits or more (i.e., during the third and fourth years of study). Courses which require 40 hours of volunteer service are worth 1 credit; courses that require only 20 hours of service are worth zero credit, but still fulfill the service requirement.
In addition, if the student has at least a B average, s/he may apply to the Center for Public Service to complete a Service Learning Internship. The neuroscience service learning internship consists of 70 hours of volunteer service plus participation in a weekly seminar class. If approved, the student should sign up for one of these courses in the Neuroscience office, 2013 Stern Hall:
Students can complete double majors in Neuroscience and Psychology by completing 18 non-overlapping courses from the curricula of the two majors. Courses listed in the Neuroscience curriculum of 3 or 4 credits can be included among the 18 non-overlapping courses. The following exceptions apply. (1) Laboratories that are one-credit components of lecture courses cannot count as separate courses. Four-credit courses that include laboratories, 3-credit independent study courses, and seven-credit honors theses can count toward the 18 non-overlapping courses. (2) Neuroscience co-requisite courses in chemistry, physics, and mathematics do not count towards the list of 18 non-overlapping courses.
A double major should broaden a student's knowledge in both areas of study, therefore, students are encouraged strongly to complete courses in their Psychology major that are outside the field of Neuroscience such as courses in developmental, social, and quantitative psychology.
Students planning to double major in Neuroscience and Psychology must meet with Dr. Gary Dohanich ( email@example.com ) to develop their double major curriculum plan.
NOTE: The Neuroscience program does not offer a minor in Neuroscience. Neuroscience majors can complete minors in other fields that offer minors provided that departmental requirements are met.
Questions about the double major in CMB and Neuroscience should be directed to Dr. Jeff Tasker in the CMB department.
The Neuroscience program does not offer a minor in Neuroscience. Neuroscience majors can complete minors in other fields that offer minors provided that the departmental requirements are met.
A minor in Psychology requires completion of PSYC 1000 or 1010, PSYC 3090, one course that can overlap with the Neuroscience major, and three additional 3 or 4 credit courses that do not overlap with the Neuroscience major.
PSYC 1000 or 1010 (can overlap with Neuroscience)
PSYC 3090 (can overlap with Neuroscience)
PSYC 3000 - 6000 (can overlap with Neuroscience)
PSYC 3000 - 6000 (cannot overlap with Neuroscience)
PSYC 3000 - 6000 (cannot overlap with Neuroscience)
PSYC 3000 - 6000 (cannot overlap with Neuroscience)
Students wishing to minor in cell and molecular biology must complete five 3-credit non-neuroscience courses as follows. Three required courses: CELL 3030 - Molecular Biology , CELL 3750 - Cell Biology, & CELL 4010 - Cellular Biochemistry; two additional electives from the following: CELL 3050,3210, 3400, 4110/4111, 4130, 4160, 4200*, 4220, 4250, 4260, 4440, 4710, 4780. *Note that CELL 4200 may not be used for the CELL minor elective if NSCI 4200 is used as a major elective.
In accordance with Tulane's undergraduate catalog, students completing a minor must complete at least 24 credits in the major which do not overlap with the minor. Questions about the minor in CMB should be directed to Dr. Jeff Tasker in the CMB department.
Competitive Strengths:
Most colleges and universities do not offer a major in Neuroscience. Tulane's Neuroscience major allows students to pursue an interdepartmental curriculum that focuses on the nervous system and its role in regulating physiology and behavior, as well as providing research experiences in this field. The plan of study expands the knowledge base of students beyond that normally attainable in conventional majors and establishes an excellent foundation for future medical and graduate training.
Neuroscience majors pursue research in the University's Neuroscience laboratories as Independent Studies, Honors Theses, and summer employment. These experiences allow students to bring knowledge learned in the classroom into the actual research environment. Tulane undergraduates continue to play a vital role in the federally-funded research programs of Tulane neuroscientists. Their efforts have led to co-authorships on scientific publications and conference presentations.
Tulane currently is building a modern, multipurpose laboratory that will be the centerpiece of undergraduate Neuroscience at Tulane. The purpose of the laboratory classroom is to allow students to utilize the most contemporary instrumentation in the field of Neuroscience guided by faculty members who are experts in the application of techniques related to their own research questions. In addition, undergraduates who work in the University's research laboratories will continue to have access to all the instrumentation and facilities used by faculty members in their research programs.
Majors work in research laboratories throughout the University, as well as in laboratories at the Tulane medical school. Service Learning allows students to work in hospitals, clinics, and community settings to apply classroom knowledge to real-life experiences.
The majority of students graduating with a B.S. in Neuroscience have gone on to prestigious medical and graduate schools including Tulane University, Yale University, Cornell University, University of California, Baylor University, University of North Carolina. Tulane offers a 4+1 Program in Neuroscience in which students who receive a B.S. degree can obtain their M.S. degree during an additional year of study.

I'm a big fan of the Gold Bond lotions because to me, they were among the first to really do what they promise. It took me a while to try this one because while I alternate between the GB Healing and the GB Softening formulations for my hands, I had only used the Healing formulation every once in a while on my body because Nivea is my go-to lotion for daily use. Well,I really needed lotion while on a trip and the Nivea formulations I like were out of stock at this particular store, so I finally tried the GB Daily Moisturizing and I really love it! While I need the special treatment of the GB Healing or GB Softening formulations for my hands (to me, those were too thick for daily use on my body), the GB Daily Moisturizing lotion is perfect daily body lotion for me. I have dry skin and at the end of the day, my skin still feels good. Will certainly repurchase.
This is something new from Gold Bond, I had a sample of it and tried it. Leaves my hands very smooth and after about a minute it has sunk in almost completey, it doesnt leave that greasy feeling on my hands, i can snap my fingers fine. This is certainly something I'll try the full size of.

Breaking Through with a Leader in Traditional Infrastructure
To further encourage you to take a look at the USC/workshop site and think about these issues, I'm going to mention a little story about myself and a fellow named Carl Blum. Carl is a nationally recognized civil engineer, and he is a central figure in the history of infrastructure in our county. Carl is also a man who once looked at me with great skepticism, but ultimately came to see the value of green infrastructure in Los Angeles, and a man who has helped enormously to bring it back into prominence.
Here's how I told the story of his involvement with our process at the workshop:
We re-engineered a house in south L.A., so not a drop of water or any green waste would leave the property, even in a heavy rainstorm. We then invited agency people to come and look at a demonstration. When they came, they literally got dizzy. Not from sickness. When they started connecting the dots, they got dizzy with excitement. One of the agency leaders who got dizzy when we did the demonstration was Carl Blum, of the Los Angeles Department of Public Works.
At the workshop, I showed the film of the raingarden demonstration, but I neglected to mention that after the demonstration I got a call from Carl, He was very excited. He told me: "We think you've cracked it!"
Carl needed to solve a huge flooding problem for Sun Valley, an area of Los Angeles that floods whenever it rains. He saw that the solution we were talking about -- to capture rainfall, to hold the water, filter it, and return it slowly to the land, as a forest does -- could work for all of Los Angeles.
It's a solution that differs from traditional infrastructure, but what really excited Carl was the idea of seeing beyond the one-problem, one-answer approach, to a multipurpose solution that offers many answers in one initiative.
Sun Valley has more than a flooding problem: it also has a water shortage problem, a urban heat island problem, and a depressed local economy, to name a few. A concrete solution can't solve all those problems, and will make some of them worse. Yet if we can open our minds to a multipurpose solution, and bring more people to the table, we have the potential to find a solution that offers multiple ecosystem benefits.
Carl thought Sun Valley would be an ideal spot to demonstrate the viability of the multipurpose approach. Instead of a huge engineering project to solve the flooding problem, and then later a huge efforts to reverse the ocean pollution caused by that "solution," we can re-introduce a forest-like watershed system: trees, mulch, and infiltration that is both natural and engineered with technology to mimic and enhance the services provided by the ecosystem and the neighborhood.
We can not only solve the original flooding problem more effectively, we can find solutions to other problems -- offering additional water, shade, and reduced air pollution -- while at the same time saving money and creating jobs.
To demonstrate the feasibility of this idea, we developed an integrated approach and solution with the county, the city and with the engineering firm MWH. Togehter we are now in the process of implementing this solution.
This is an example of what is possible if we can think in a new way. If we can redesign existing projects -- be they maintenance projects or new construction -- to see the bigger picture, and if we can engage the problems solvers and resource managers from different agencies, we can move past the single-purpose approach.
We can change our neighborhoods in a way that will solve more than one problem at once, and save money and time as well.
That's why we held this workshop, and that's why we want to reach out to others able to help us solve these problems.
Please take a look, or give us a call, or contact us by email. With your help, viable new solutions to some of our city's most intractable problems are within reach.
