Overview of the UML profile for software services
The aim of the profile, implemented in IBM Rational Sofware Architect, is to provide a common language for describing services, one which covers a number of activities through the development lifecycle and also provides views to different stakeholders. For example, the profile provides capabilities for architects to map out services -- early in the lifecycle -- using logical partitions to describe the entire enterprise-wide service portfolio. This view is further detailed by designers, who develop the service specifications -- both structural and behavioral -- that act as the contracts between the services' clients and implementers. The message view provides the ability for designers to reuse information models for common service data definitions.
Conceptual model
Figure 1, following, is a diagram showing the important concepts in modeling services. As you can see the number of concepts is relatively small, and should be reasonably familiar to anyone who has worked on service-oriented solutions. The UML 2.0 profile this diagram represents has been implemented in IBM Rational Sofware Architect, used successfully in developing models of complex customer scenarios, and used to help educate people about the concerns relevant to developing service-oriented solutions. However, although the profile is a realization of this model, note that a number of the concepts are not explicit stereotypes in the profile. For example, there is no stereotype for operation or for protocol, as these are existing notions in UML 2.0 that the profile reuses without any ambiguity or further constraint.
Figure 1. Modeling services
Identified subset of UML 2.0
Table 1 lists the elements of the UML 2.0 meta model that are used as meta classes for stereotypes in the UML Profile.
Table 1. Elements of the UML 2.0 meta model
UML 2.0 Meta class | Stereotypes |
Class | Message, Service Partition, Service Provider |
Classifier | Service Consumer |
Collaboration | Service Collaboration |
Connector | Service Channel |
Interface | Service Specification |
Port | Service, Service Gateway |
Property | Message Attachment |
The profile itself
Figure 2 (clickable) is a UML 2.0 profile diagram. It demonstrates the actual details of the profile, showing each stereotype with its meta class using the extension notation (filled arrow head).You can also see some of the constraints in the model, particularly those co-constraints between profile elements.
Figure 2. A UML 2.0 profile diagram
The following sections outline the elements of a UML 2.0 profile as it is currently defined. Each section outlines an individual stereotype, the details of which specify its meta class, properties, and any constraints which should be applied when using the profile.
Stereotype message
A message represents a concept as defined in the WSDL (Web Services Description Language) specification; that is, it's a container for actual data which has meaning to the service and the consumer. A message may not have operations, but it may have properties and associations to other classes (likely of some domain model). A message stereotype has a property to denote its assumed encoding form (for example, SOAP-literal, SOAP-rpc, ASN.1
, and so on).
Table 2 lists the properties of a message stereotype.
Table 2. Properties of a message
Kind | Name | Type | Description |
Property | encoding | String | Denotes the platform encoding mechanism to use in generating the schema for the message; examples might be SOAP-RPC, Doc-Literal, ASN.1 , and so on. |
- Shall not have any owned operations
- Shall not have any owned behaviors
Stereotype message attachment
This stereotype is used to denote that some component of a message is an attachment to it (as opposed to a direct part of the message itself). In general, you're not likely to use this stereotype much in higher level design activities, but for many processes it's important to differentiate attached data from embedded message data. For example, a catalog service may return general product details as a part of the structured message, but return images as attachments to the message. This also allows you to denote that the encoding of the images is binary (as opposed to the textual encoding of the main message).
Table 3 lists the properties of a message attachment stereotype.
Table 3. Properties of a message attachment
Kind | Name | Type | Description |
Property | encoding | String | Denotes the platform encoding mechanism to use in generating the schema for the message; examples might be SOAP-RPC, Doc-Literal, ASN.1 , and so on. |
- Shall only be used on properties owned by classes stereotyped as <<Message>>
Stereotype service
The service model element provides the end-point for service interaction (in web service terminology), whereas the definition of these interactions is a part of the service specification stereotype. In your model, a service not only identifies the provided interface, but may also identify required interfaces (such as callback interfaces). A service has an additional property that denotes the binding to be used, such as SOAP-HTTP, SOAP-JMS, and so on.
- Shall only be used on a class stereotyped as <<Service Provider>>
- Shall be typed by an interface stereotyped as <<Service Specification>>
Stereotype service channel
A channel represents the communication path between two services. It is important to note that interaction may occur over a channel, but the channel does not represent any particular interaction. In the web services world, each service denotes the binding(s) associated with it (so that a client may access it). In a modeling profile, you denote binding either on the communication between services or between a service and consumers. In this way, you can be flexible in understanding the binding requirements.
Table 4 lists the properties of a service channel stereotype.
Table 4. Properties of a service channel
Kind | Name | Type | Description |
Property | binding | String | Denotes the platform binding mechanism to use in generating the service binding in WSDL; examples might be SOAP-RPC, SOAP-Doc, HTTP-Get , and so on. |
- At least one end of the connector shall connect to a port stereotyped as <<Service
- At most one end of the connector may connect to a port stereotyped as <<Service Gateway>>, a class stereotyped as <<Service Provider>>, or a classifier stereotyped as <<Service Consumer>>
Stereotype service collaboration
A service collaboration is a way of specifying the implementation of a service as a collaboration of other services. From a web services point of view, this corresponds to the use of BPEL4WS (Business Process Execution Language for Web Services) in specifying service implementation. So, this means that you use a service collaboration as the behavior of a service and -- if it is intended to generate to a language such as BPEL -- it may have other implementation-specific constraints.
- Collaboration participants shall only be classes stereotyped as <<Service Provider>>
Stereotype service consumer
Any classifier (class, component, and so on) may act as the consumer of a service, and that includes another service. While this stereotype is most definitely optional, it may help you identify elements of a model -- that are not services themselves -- as clients of services. On the other hand, it may just be overhead and you don't need to use it.
Stereotype service gateway
A service gateway looks like a service but is only available for use on partitions and not service providers. A gateway acts as a proxy service, and you can use it to mediate protocols or to denote the interface available to a partition. For example, you might denote that -- although a number of services are implemented within a partition -- only some of them are available for use outside the partition, and therefore gateways are provided for these services. This disallows other services or partitions from communicating to services that are not exposed via gateways.
- Shall only be used on a class stereotyped as <<Service Partition>>
- Shall be typed by an interface stereotyped as <<Service Specification>>
Stereotype service partition
A partition represents some logical or physical boundary of the system. It is optional but useful to model partitions. For example, you could use partitions to represent the web, business, and data tiers of a traditional n-tier application. You might also use partitions to denote more physical boundaries (such as my primary data center, secondary site, customer site, partners, and so on), in which case the crossing of partitions may have particular constraints for security, allowed protocols, bandwidth, and so on.
A partition may only have properties that represent nested parts, be they services or other partitions. Note that this is a constraint -- no other elements may currently be represented in a partition.
A partition also has the notion of being strict. If a partition denotes that all communication between it and other partitions must be directed through typed gateways, then it is said to be a strict partition.
- Shall not have any owned properties
- Shall not have any owned operations
- Shall not have any owned behaviors
- Any owned part shall be a class stereotyped <<Service Provider>>
Stereotype service provider
The service provider is a software element that provides one or more services. In modeling terms, you would most usually expect to see a UML component here; however, such a restriction seems arbitrary, and so the metaclass is noted as class for more flexibility. A service provider has a property that captures information about its location, although the meaning of this is implementation-dependent. The class acting as the service provider may not expose any attributes or operations directly: only public ports may be provided (stereotyped as service), and these are typed by service specifications.
The location property -- while implementation- or platform-specific -- is useful in generating service endpoint names. For example (with WSDL), the location may be http://svc.myco.com/ and a service might be called CustInfo, in which case the endpoint name for the service could be generated as http://svc.myco.com/CustInfo.
Table 5 lists the properties of a service provider stereotype.
Table 5. Properties of a service provider
Kind | Name | Type | Description |
Property | allowedBindings | String | Denotes the allowed platform binding mechanism a channel may use in connecting to the service; examples might be SOAP-RPC, SOAP-Doc, HTTP-Get , etc. |
Property | location | String | The location of the provider, this may be used by generators to create endpoint names. |
- Shall not have any owned properties
- Shall not have any owned operations
- Shall not have any owned behaviors
- Any owned port shall be stereotyped <<Service>>
Stereotype service specification
The use of an interface denotes a set of operations provided by a service. Note that a service may implement more than one interface. By convention, it is possible to attach a protocol state machine or UML 2.0 collaboration to such a specification to denote the order of invocation of operations on a service specification. With such a behavioral specification, any implementing service can be validated against not only a static but dynamic specification of its structure and behavior. Note that the service specification may only provide public operations, and each operation should only consume at most one message and produce at most one message.
Table 6 lists the properties of a service specification stereotype.
Table 6. Properties of a service specification
Kind | Name | Type | Description |
Property | published | Boolean | This property denotes whether the service is assumed to be published into a service repository; this is a different notion from the public/private property provided by UML. |
- Shall not have any owned properties
- All operations shall be marked as
- May only be used as the type for a port stereotyped as <<Service>> or <<Service Gateway>>

Flasher found by police unconscious on Cumbrian street
Last updated at 09:00, Saturday, 19 May 2012
A serial flasher took to wearing two pairs of trousers to make him think twice before exposing himself.
Michael McShane was found by police drunk and unconscious on a Cumbrian street with two pairs of jeans half-way down his buttocks last month.
The 55-year-old was living at the Bowling Green Hostel in Carlisle on April 17 when he travelled to Workington and drank 10 pints of lager and 10 shots of rum.
With 190 convictions for 283 mainly exposure and drink-related offences, he decided to wear extra clothing in an effort to control his urges.
Defence barrister Elizabeth Muir told Carlisle Crown Court: "On this occasion there was no deliberate exposure of his genitals, which has happened so much in the past.
"He was found wearing two pairs of trousers. This was something he took to, to try and stop himself offending."
In 2008, McShane was banned from getting drunk, disorderly and incapable in a public place under a sexual offences prevention order, as most of his offences were committed while he was drunk.
The court heard McShane had exposed himself in almost every part of the country, appearing before magistrates in many towns and cities over the past three decades.
His offences included indecent exposure in Essex, shameless indecency in Glasgow, flashing at motorists in Penrith and indecent assault in Corby.
He has used 16 aliases since first being caught indecently exposing himself aged 17 in Clerkenwell, London.
McShane has lived in Cumbria for several years and committed a number of offences here. He was found unconscious by a police officer in Vulcans Lane in Workington last month.
The court heard he had not drunk alcohol for two years before that day. He pleaded guilty to breaching the prevention of sexual offences order.
Judge Barbara Forrester said: "You have an absolutely appalling record. The only way forward is if you can overcome your drinking."
She deferred sentencing until July 30.
The court heard that until last month, McShane had been responding well to help from probation officers.

I Would Not Attend a Baby Shower.October 27th 2007 7:09 pm[ View A Comments ]
Mommy went to a baby shower today, and I am still trying to understand the concept. Evidently, she drove an hour and a half from here to go to a shower when we have 2 of them here in our house. Humans wonder why we dogs think they are nuts. I might add that although there are 2 showers in the house, I have no love for getting a bath in either of them. If you asked a dog to a shower, you would have no guests because no sensible dog would show up willingly for a shower. We would have to be dragged in barking and biting. I wanted to go with Mommy. I love going bye bye, and I could just sit in the car and let the humans get the shower. How long can a shower take? DreamsOctober 26th 2007 9:51 am[ View A Comments ]
I have been napping all morning. I have some serious dreams to dream. Why don't humans sleep more? It is a lot more interesting that being awake. I do manage to wake up for the important stuff--like if MOmmyis heading out the door, I"ll wake up for that. I wouldn't want to miss an opportunity to go bye bye. Today I decided I'd cover the topic of dreams. I'll start with the bad ones called nightmares--these involve scary things like dressing a dog in a costume for Halloween. Good dreams involve all your favorite food, snow and ice, and lots of squeaky toys and dingo bones. I don't tend to daydream because, since I'm a dog, I can sleep anytime I want. You humans might be a lot happier if you were dogs. I've observed you humans. Most of the time, you aren't having any fun. I'd suggest a good nap. Why does Mommy give out my candy?October 25th 2007 10:34 am[ View A Comments ]
I was just laughing at Angel's post on the Husky Heaven group. There is a contest involving dogs being dressed in Halloween costumes. Angel wrote to express her total disapproval of the contest, Halloween costumes in general, and suggested a contest called "photos of husky tails running away from the Halloween costume" which both of us think would be a far more popular contest. Halloween should be a great holdiday since it involves my favorite food item---candy. Mommy is planning to put the trick or treat stuff in little Halloween bags which is a total waste of time since Angel and I don't care if our treats are bagged or not. I had to explain to Angel that Mommy has been giving the candy away to kids in the neighborhood on past Halloweens, and I'm hoping she has more sense this year. Angel was horrified. She couldn't believe that Mommy would give away our candy. She doesn't even ask us if we care--she just gives out the candy. I'm already drooling over the Milky Way and Snickers. Angel said it is okay to give out the play dough the little parachute guys the little "lunch boxes" of candy we don't like", and the Doritos, but not the candy. I was chatting with another dog, and their humans also give out candy. It must be some sort of human mental illness that strikes on October 31. Last year Jeff had to take me inside because I was outside so I could enjoy the children. Normally I love children, but then I saw Mommy giving away MY CANDY, and I got very upset. That is when Jeff took me inside. Wouldn't any self respecting dog want to run after the little theif who took his candy? Now I know why I've heard the expession "taking candy from a baby". It must have been a dog who is getting his candy back from the little theif. I can't believe human society would allow kids to steal candy just because it is "Halloween". When do dogs get to go out and get candy? If we have costumes on (which the humans are trying to push), shouldn't we get candy from everyone in the neighborhood too? When I become President, dogs will get to go trick or treating, and those humans better give us candy. Happy Howl-oween! Don't keep me waiting on my food.October 24th 2007 6:47 am[ View A Comments ]
I was so happy to get Burger King yesterday. I couldn't believe Mommy would make me miss a day of drive thru. I know it happens on Christmas. I have no idea why they think they should close the restaurant--like Demon Flash Bandit doesn't get hungry because it is Christmas. Mommy usually gets me some the day before and refrigerates them, but it just isn't the same as getting them fresh at drive thru. I love the whole experience--the ride to the restuarant, the employees talking to me (they love the Deemster), and even the fun of blowing the horn when they are too slow. I have no idea why it embarrasses Mommy when Angel and I do that, but we both know how to blow the horn, and sometimes you have to let the employees know that you are very hungry. Now they know we can do that, and they think it is funny unless there is a new employee who hasn't met us yet and then Mommy explains it to them. I have no idea why--if they were faster, we wouldn't have to blow the horn, would we? Angel isn't as fond of BK as I am, but she has tried to jump out of the car and into the window to help them. She does love the oreo shakes. Mommy and Jeff let us have what is left of theirs (like those pigs leave us much) and we both love them. I would like to know why they have combo meals, kid's meals, and big kid's meal, but no doggie meals. I should call their corporate offices and ask about that. Happy Birthday JambalayaOctober 23rd 2007 10:32 am[ View A Comments ]
I want to wish Jambalaya a happy Gifts and Treats Day (translation: birthday-what's a birthday without gifts and treats). Hold out for candy. If your humans refuse to give it to you, make them feel guilty with sad faces. It isn't hard to wrap the humans around your paw. I Get the Dundee Award.October 22nd 2007 8:08 am[ View A Comments ]
Mommy said it was a nice day yesterday--a lot she knows--I didn't see even one snowflake. Mommy and Jeff went to see a movie, Comebacks. Mommy said it was funny. I might have enjoyed it too, but I had to babysit. I think Angel Zoom Smokey is a vacuum cleaner. I know some of you are probably asking why I would say that about Angel. Mommy bought us Arby's roast beef and Angel didn't savor the flavor or enjoy the food. She "vaccuumed: it down. She is quite a good vacuum cleaner. I haven't seen food vacuumed like that since Mommy gave Flash (the bunny) lettuce. I am ThinkingOctober 21st 2007 10:25 am[ View A Comments ]
It's Sunday, and I've been doing some thinking about religion. I can only think about it because we DOGS AREN'T EVEN ALLOWED IN CHURCH. I know I already covered that fact in last Sunday's dairy, but it bears repeating. I may not be able to go to church, but I can think about God and spiritual matters. God has been good to us dogs. He gave us 4 paws to walk on, the ability to nap at will, and teeth strong enough to chew through the toughest rawhide bone. My conclusion is that dogs are his favorite creatures. Demon Flash Bandit DayOctober 20th 2007 7:31 am[ View A Comments ]
Saturday in the park--I think it is Demon Flash Bandit Day. I remember hearing that song done by a group called Chicago. Daddy and Mommy liked their music. I thought it was nice that they wrote a song about me. A lot of songwriters write songs about me. I've got to admit that it is very flattering. I love having my own holiday, and the song is one of my favorites. Who wouldn't love it? Saturday in the Park...everyday is Demon Flash Bandit Day. People singing, People laughing Celebrating Demon Flash Bandit Day--It makes us so happy. Angel said those aren't the words to the song, but she is a silly puppy who has never heard the song and is obviously very jealous that I have so many songs written for and about me, Demon Flash Bandit. It's Friday so TGFDOctober 19th 2007 8:05 am[ View A Comments ]
TGFD. I'm sure most of you already know the meaning of that since it is so common. It is: Thank God For Dogs. You humans can be so flattering. We love you humans too even when you are so silly. The humans in this family don't even have to take baths or showers because Angel "cleans" them with puppy kisses. She gets so slobbery, and I'm sure the humans love it. Don't all humans love to be slobbered on. Yes, I thought so. I don't have time for giving puppy kisses all the time. Besides, I'm not a puppy anymore. I'm a big dog who is trying to run a presidential campaign. Angel wants to run a campaign, but she also wants to have lots of time for puppy kissing and playing. She doesn't even get her diary done most days because she is so busy playing. At least she is happy. She is also a very pretty dog. I Met a New Friend, RivyOctober 18th 2007 10:38 am[ View A Comments ]
Thinking up presidential campaign ideas is a lot tougher than I thought. It isn't that I can't think up ideas, but it really cuts into my nap time. Since I'm a genius, as I've already pointed out with some of my ideas-like replacing Angel with a robot dog that doesn't steal my rawhide bones, I am amazed that it is so difficult. Mommy explained that the 2 political parties have large budgets and a lot of money to spend. That did give me some inspiration. The 2 parties can drop their candidates and just tell everyone to vote for me instead. After all, it would save them a lot of money and how can they compete with a dog? I'm not only smarter and more honest, but I'm cute. Would you rather look at one of those silly humans on tv for 4 years or a very handsome blue eyed dog? Not only have I lived a very good life, but I am sure that I am much better at "digging up dirt" on the other candidates than any of them are. How often do you see a human get down and dig in the dirt with their paws? |

Coastal Public Access Guide now available to coastal enthusiasts
July 8, 2013
For more information, contact: Melissa Anson, John Bott at (207) 592-5689, (207) 287-3156
The Maine Coastal Program releases Southern Region Guide with more to follow
Augusta - The Maine Coastal Program will showcase an exciting new resource for coastal enthusiasts at the Maine Beaches Conference on July 12. The Southern edition of The Maine Coastal Public Access Guide will be publically unveiled at the Maine Beaches Conference, July 12 at 8:00 AM. This year's Conference is being held at Southern Maine Community College in South Portland.
The Maine Coastal Public Access Guide is a three-volume guidebook detailing more than 700 sites along Maine's 5,300-mile, world-renowned coastline. The Guide provides geographic coordinates, amenities and facilities, parking and directions, and descriptions of each site. The Southern Maine edition (South Berwick to Freeport) is now available for purchase by the public. The Midcoast and Downeast editions will be released later this year by the Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry.
"Coastal lands and waters and recreational boating play a major role in Maine's economy," said Governor Paul R. LePage. "This new guide recognizes that public access to the shore is vital to the survival of some of Maine's most significant commercial and recreational enterprises, including fishing, marine transportation, tourism, boating and wildlife viewing."
"I offer my sincere thanks to the hundreds of partners who helped create the Maine Coastal Public Access Guide," said Walt Whitcomb, Commissioner of the Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry. "It will help residents and visitors navigate and enjoy Maine's unique coastline."
The Maine Coastal Program is administered by the Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry, and is supported by an annual grant from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association at the United States Department of Commerce. The Maine Coastal Program works with a variety of public and private partners to balance the development and conservation of coastal resources.

During the first public hearing of the Citizens Budget Task Force Wednesday, part of the conversation centered on finding new revenue for county government.
Task force member Mary Anne Servian suggested the county crack down on homeowners who claim homestead exemptions on two properties, which is illegal.
She said Broward County has begun a homestead-exemption crackdown and has collected about $7 million in unpaid property taxes.
The County Commission created the Citizens Budget Task Force in May. It is made up of prominent business people who will analyze the county's budget and give suggestions on how to make it more efficient.

Is anyone using this?! How do you like it?
PCOS/Insulin Resistance Support - My Fitness Pal iPhone AppView Full Version : My Fitness Pal iPhone App Nicoyaangel 01-24-2012, 03:54 AM Is anyone using this?! How do you like it? josey 01-24-2012, 10:08 AM I love it! It works great and it is free. ladyrider72472 01-24-2012, 10:30 AM I have tried a few apps and I love this one by FAR! I love the scanning feature. I love the "projection" at the end of the day that tells you what you will weight on "X"date of you eat the way you ate that day. Tammy Nicoyaangel 01-24-2012, 03:23 PM So far I'm loving it also. It was very easy to enter my breakfast. I don't measure some things tho so I'm having to take a guess. That's the only part I hate. josey 01-24-2012, 03:27 PM Without measuring is hard. Not sure if I would be able to do that. What I like about MFP best is that you see people confirming entries in the database. Some entries (and other apps) are so far off with the nutritional information. I only use what got confirmed multiple times to make sure I get the right details without double checking on the labels. PghGal 01-31-2012, 12:30 AM I use MFP and I LOVE it. It's been, by far, the best tool I've found that both allows you to log on the computer and phone. I love that you can scan labels of food products. If anyone wants to add me, my user name on there is PghCLTGal. :) Alba09 01-31-2012, 01:01 AM I really, really like this app! Cons: nutritional info isn't always correct so be careful in your selections. Also, it is sometimes difficult to find exactly what ur looking for. Pros: user friendly, simple and clear. Ur calorie count shows up on the main page and when you submit ur day, it tells u how much you'll gain/lose if u keep eating the same way! You can also enter any exercise and it will calculate your additional calorie intake :) oh! And the bar code scanner! How could I forget? AMAZING! twish 01-31-2012, 02:03 AM Love, love, love it! I am addicted to it. It makes counting calories fun, plus I have tons of 3FC friends on it who are a wonderful source of motivation and inspiration!

An Outer Banks Affair
By Sarah Ryberg | Photography by Cyn Kain Photography
Posted: Monday, Nov. 25, 2013
Sara Oxley and Garrett Garner knew from day one that family would be the focus of their entire wedding celebration. "I am very sentimental and wanted everything we did to have a personal meaning to us," says Sara. When the couple found the Elizabethan Gardens in Manteo, N.C., they knew they'd found a reflection of themselves. "I love gardens and Garrett enjoys fishing and surfing," she says. "With the beautiful gardens overlooking the sound, it made for the perfect mesh of both of us." The garden setting provided an air of natural romance, which meant Sara and Garrett could focus on all the details. Sara tied her late grandfather's wedding ring to her bouquet and placed the bible from her grandparents' wedding at the altar. "I am incredibly close to my grandparents," Sara says. "I not only wanted, but needed a part of them with me on my wedding day." Even the diamonds on her rope bands, custom designed by Osborne Jewelers, were handed down from Garrett's mother.
As for the decor, the couple chose soft, spring colors that would complementnot detractfrom the palette of the gardens. Adding gold, sparkling touches brought a bit of glamour to the other neutrals, and Sara wanted one more pop: At the last minute, I decided to add in some mint for an unexpected, fun accent color!
After the ceremony, everyone moved on to 108 Budleigh. The venue's rustic but elegant details like the vaulted ceilings and stained-glass windows, waterfront views, and inviting fireplace made for a cozy reception. A custom-made quilt, used as a backdrop for the photo booth, allowed them to cherish new heirlooms along with the old. "Garrett and I live under our family hand-me-down quilts on the couch year round, so we had a wedding quilt made," she says. "It was something from the wedding we could keep and will hand down to our children later on. From the natural beauty of the gardens, to the warmth and quaint charm of the reception space, the Outer Banks provided the backdrop for the sentimental event they'd hoped for. "It was very unscripted, raw, and emotional," Sara says. "It exuded romance."Vendors

A University of Maryland, College Park, student was found dead inside a campus dormitory on Monday.
University police said the student, identified late Tuesday as 20-year-old Sarah Elizabeth Hancock, of Bel Air, was found unresponsive inside Kent Hall around 1 p.m. Monday. She was pronounced dead at the scene.

A fix to the glitch...maybe
First of all, let me say that I think all of your games have been great! They make you think in ways most video games don't or just plain fun!
As for the glitch people keep talking about where their game freezes up when they exit the shop, I had that happen to me. Everything was frozen except me. I couldn't collect coins and I couldn't re-enter the shop. I jumped around for a while, thinking i dunno what, but then, when I jumped into the coinblock from underneath it, as if I was trying to get coins from it, my game started back up. Everything was moving again and no more glitches that I could find. Hope this helps!
Keep up the good work!
Radiation + Magic = ?
you'll find out when you crack this hore open!
This game is awesome, it has a good screen,upgrades, automatic workers, upgrades,its clean, and it has a great ending(which totally got me).Ive played a lot of games, but this one tops it all off.this game is pratically perfect and you should totally make coinbox hero 2,that would be awesome.But i do agree with wundershnitzel,the auto pause was dum.otherwise this game is pure awesomesauce (:

Folk Music Fest at historic Gurler House in DeKalb June 16
• Event features Dave Balika and Friends, Barb City Stompers and Truman's Ridge
Staff Report
DEKALB, Ill. — This summer marks the 12th Annual GHA Folk Music Fest, set to take place from noon to 5 p.m., Saturday, June 16, on the shady lawn of the historic Gurler House, 205 Pine St., DeKalb, Ill.
The afternoon will offer something for everyone. The event will feature three free performances by Dave Balika and Friends (noon-12:45 p.m.), the Barb City Stompers (1-2:45 p.m.) and Truman's Ridge (3-4:45 p.m.).
Kicking off the festival at noon, Dave Balika, a well-known DeKalb artist, will entertain with bluegrass-style dulcimer music. The Barb City Stompers will enchant the audience with traditional jazz. This six-piece band is popular in the northern Illinois region for their mix of Dixieland, jazz and swing music.
Headliners Truman's Ridge play "lightning-fast" bluegrass and gospel music with Chicago-style.
In addition to the great group of performers, there will be a food tent featuring Chicago-style hot dogs, chips, home-baked treats and cold drinks.
This family-friendly, open-air event is supported in part by a grant from the Mary E. Stevens Concert and Lecture Fund and sponsored by WNIJ public radio, with additional support by Big John. It is free and open to the public, although donations to support the historic house will be appreciated.
In addition, this year, commemorative buttons and T-shirts will be sold. A local Artists' Market will feature beadwork and fabric arts.
Bring your blankets or chairs, and spend a musical afternoon on the shade-dappled lawn. In the event of rain, the event will be at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of DeKalb, 158 N. Fourth St., DeKalb, Ill.
For more information, call (815) 758-4897 or visit the Gurler Heritage Association website, http://gurlerhouse.org.
