After the delights of New Delhi, the Formula One paddock heads rapidly west this week for the 2012 Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, round 18 of the 2012 FIA Formula One World Championship. With its spectacular setting and unique twilight race, the Yas Marina Circuit is one of the most popular on the calendar, as the teams and drivers explain
Pastor Maldonado, Williams
2011 Qualifying - 17th, 2011 Race - 14th
Although a reasonably new circuit, Abu Dhabi has become one of my favourites because the city is spectacular and the people always seem very friendly. The race throws up some unique challenges because we start off driving in hot daytime conditions, but then the sun goes down and the temperature drops quickly. You therefore have to find a set-up that balances these different conditions. The track also changes a lot each day and there is quite a lot of sand on the track surface which you have to deal with.
Bruno Senna, Williams
2011 Qualifying - 14th, 2011 Race - 16th
Abu Dhabi could be an interesting track for us. It has a large number of slow corners which has not traditionally suited our car, but it is also hard on brakes and that is an area where our car has been very strong all year. We have had a lot of updates to the car recently so hopefully we can have one of those trouble-free weekends where everything comes together and we can be competitive.
Mark Gillan, Williams chief operations engineer
The Yas Marina Circuit layout of long straights and relatively tight corners puts a lot of energy into the brake system and with reasonably high ambient temperatures the general car cooling has to be run relatively open too. As per last year Pirelli bring their medium and soft tyres to this race and from an aerodynamics perspective the car will be set in medium to high efficiency trim.
Remi Taffin, head of Renault Sport F1 track operations
The Yas Marina Circuit is a modern style track; mainly slow to medium corners, long straights and tight hairpin bends. The stop-start nature of the track makes fuel consumption very high over one lap, and is further increased by the high atmospheric pressure due to being at sea level. The day to night schedule makes ambient conditions vary significantly, plus grip levels and tyre warm-up and air pressure will change. The engine needs to respond to this new set of parameters, so flexibility is crucial.
Timo Glock, Marussia
2011 Qualifying - 20th, 2011 Race - 19th
Abu Dhabi is a special race. Its like a night race but with the added factor of starting the race in full daylight, but being dark by the time we finish. So its something different and very impressive to be out on the track when the light is changing and the track is fully lit at the end. Technically its a nice track. We have some good experience here across the whole team, but of course things change from year to year, so we still have to do our homework to get up to speed. Naturally Im hoping for a better race so we can all really enjoy the experience and set ourselves up for the last few races of the season.
Charles Pic, Marussia
2011 Qualifying - n/a, 2011 Race - n/a
Abu Dhabi is a circuit I love to drive at and a racing destination I really enjoy. After a few days of training and fun with the team, I cant wait to start running here on Friday. I will take over the car from FP2 for the rest of the weekend and I will be very focused on picking up from a great race for me in India. If we can perform at least as well as we did there on race day, I will be happy, but the wider objective continues to be to catch up to Caterham, which is now within our sights. We also need to work on our preparation on Friday and Saturday as we need that improvement to put us in the best possible position for the race. Its a tough track technically and also we have the factor of the heat and the track direction, but by the time we start racing we will be used to both. Im looking forward to another great performance for the team.
John Booth, Marussia team principal
Abu Dhabi is a race we all enjoy, so despite it being another tough back-to-back for the team, we arrived here full of enthusiasm after a very positive race in India. Everyone is well-rested - the team having enjoyed a bit of relaxation time with the drivers - so we now turn our attentions to the hard work ahead this weekend. Its a very demanding and technically interesting track and of course there is the added factor of the fierce heat. Our first priority will be to ensure a better start to the weekend than we experienced at New Delhi; it all came good on race day for Charles but we need to do a better job on Friday and in qualifying to put us in the best possible position on Sunday. We welcome Max Chilton to the car for FP1 and we will be interested to see how he performs at a track he knows well. Thereafter, Charles will be back in the car and helping us towards our overall objective, which is now a familiar story - competing with Caterham and maintaining our current advantage over them in the constructors championship.
Paul di Resta, Force India
2011 Qualifying - 10th, 2011 Race - 9th
The whole team has been working hard to try and understand the issues we had in India. Weve seen some things in the data so hopefully we can get on top of them and back up to speed right from the start of practice on Friday. Its a very technical circuit with a lot of tight, low-speed corners and you need to be very precise with the car. Theres very little high-speed stuff, apart from the esses after turn one, but they are taken pretty much flat anyway. There are definitely some similarities with Singapore in terms of the number of low-speed corners.
Abu Dhabi is a crucial weekend for us. The car was quite strong there last year so theres every reason to believe that will carry over into this year. Also, its the sort of track that has suited us this year so hopefully we can maximise things and get both cars in the points. If we want to get close to Sauber thats what we need to do. We need to make sure we have a strong run through until the end of the year.
Nico Hulkenberg, Force India
2011 Qualifying - n/a, 2011 Race - n/a
I think Abu Dhabi should suit us a bit more than India. Its a twisty circuit with more low-speed corners and its a bit more like Singapore, where we looked quite competitive. So Im optimistic going there.
Heikki Kovalainen, Caterham
2011 Qualifying - 18th, 2011 Race - 17th
"Abu Dhabi's a track that I think everyone looks forward to getting back to. It's just about the best overall venue for F1, with some of the best facilities for the teams that we see all year, a track that has some good technical challenges and pretty much perfect weather.
"As my girlfriend's parents now live in Abu Dhabi we've spent quite a bit of time this year and as well as being a good place to race it's also really good for the time off between Grands Prix. The weather makes training easy and there are several good golf courses where I can keep working on lowering my handicap so it's somewhere I really like going to.
"On track the first sector is pretty quick. If you're anywhere near turn one you can see just how quick F1 cars change direction as we head into turn one, and from there it's almost flat out through turns two and three. After that it's a bit stop/start until the long straight down to T8 where there you have the first clear chance to overtake. From there it's another flat out blast down to T11 and then it almost turns into a street circuit for the final sector. I'm sure for the people watching from the hotel it must look pretty hardcore, but from inside the car it's not too much of a challenge. You need good traction and the braking stability has to be perfect, but once we're through that final sector it's back onto the start / finish straight and the start of another lap."
Vitaly Petrov, Caterham
2011 Qualifying - 12th, 2011 Race - 13th
"I really like Abu Dhabi. There's always strong support from Russian fans around the track and the circuit itself is a good technical challenge where one of the most important areas we'll be working on is braking stability. You can make up a lot of time if you can really attack the braking zones, particularly into turns eight and eleven after the two longest straights, so we'll be working hard on that in the practice sessions.
"One of the other challenges in Abu Dhabi is dealing with the track evolution. At the start of FP1 it is always pretty green but the grip comes in quickly. FP1 and FP3 are both run when the track is nearing its hottest temperatures, but FP2, quali and the race are all run in the later afternoon and into the evening when track temperatures have dropped but the grip levels are continuing to rise, so we'll be taking a close look at how best to manage the tyre degradation as the conditions change. As we've seen all season, looking after the tyres properly can make a real difference to performance, so that's something everyone will be working on."
Giedo van der Garde, Caterham test driver
"Abu Dhabi's the first track I'll be driving on in FP1 at this stage of the season that I've raced on before. With the obvious limits we work under in FP1 that's a big advantage as it means I'm not having to learn my way around on my first couple of laps, and as we're usually doing somewhere between 20 to 25 laps in first practice it means I can help the team even more right from the first run.
"I have to say I'm really enjoying the work I'm doing with the team and it'll be even better in Abu Dhabi. In India my times were closer to my team mate than in any other session I've done and I think I'm really developing a good relationship with the engineers and the whole team. It's obviously a bit tricky to really show what you can do when you have just one set of tyres and not much more than about 25 laps, but these sessions aren't about showing how quick I can go, they're about working to the program set by the team and continuing to learn as much as I can about the step up from GP2 to F1. After the Abu Dhabi race I'll be staying on for the young driver test, and that'll be another really good step forward in my development - two full days in the car on a track I've already driven on, and with a group of people who I've worked closely with for the last couple of months will give me a great chance to help the team get as much as they can from the test, and give me the opportunity to keep developing without some of the constraints of a race weekend FP1."
Mark Webber, Red Bull
2011 Qualifying - 4th, 2011 Race - 4th
I like the twilight element to the race - starting in the day and finishing at night. The facilities are world class. For the track itself, you need good traction - there are slow and twisty corners, as well as a good top speed. The race has a great atmosphere and it looks good on TV for the fans at home. Its a phenomenal spectacle and Im looking forward to racing there.
Sebastian Vettel, Red Bull
2011 Qualifying - 1st, 2011 Race - DNF
In just three years, the race has grown to be one of the highlights of the season. Starting at dusk and finishing in the dark makes it something unique and impressive. I have special memories of the circuit; in 2009 I won there and then repeated the victory in 2010 to win my first world championship, so its an event I will never forget. The circuit itself is impressive: 5.5km long, with large run-off areas and a pit lane exit that goes through a tunnel to the other side of the track.
Jenson Button, McLaren
2011 Qualifying - 3rd 2011 Race - 3rd
Im really looking forward to this race weekend. Ive always gone well around this track - I had a great battle with Mark Webber in 2009, and finished third, and Lewis and I have been on the podium together at the last two races. I think this will be another closely matched race: India showed us that the gap between the top three teams is extremely close at the moment, so I wouldnt like to predict the exact pecking order. As in the last few races, I think Red Bull will go into the weekend with a slight advantage, but Im confident that, with a clear run through practice, we can be right up there too. One of the most satisfying aspects of the Indian Grand Prix was that we could battle cleanly at the front - that was fantastic. While itll be quite tough to overtake around here - even with DRS - Im hopeful that we can have another great battle, which would be fantastic for the fans.
Lewis Hamilton, McLaren
2011 Qualifying - 2nd, 2011 Race - 1st
The facilities in Abu Dhabi are absolutely fantastic - probably the best of any circuit in the world. Ive always enjoyed the Yas Marina circuit - I took pole here in 2009 and led until my retirement, finished second in 2010 and won it last year - thats a pretty good record. Its a track where you can really push the car, which is what I most enjoy. There are a wide variety of corners - I love the fast sweeps in the first sector - and its incredibly satisfying to hook together a good sector through the tricky marina section of the lap. Good mechanical balance makes all the difference here because youre always changing direction. This has also been a place where Red Bull have traditionally gone well, but our race pace was very strong throughout the race in New Delhi. I really enjoyed that race India fourth place may have been little reward for 60 laps of flat-out effort, but I couldnt have gone any faster. I feel confident that we can pull together a strong race weekend in Abu Dhabi.
Martin Whitmarsh, McLaren team principal
Another race just a week after the last gives us the perfect opportunity to maintain the positive momentum we gathered during Sundays Grand Prix in India. Both Jenson and Lewis drove their hearts out, and, although we werent able to match the Red Bulls in qualifying, their pace on Sunday afternoon, particularly during the second half of the race, was impressively strong. The Vodafone McLaren Mercedes team has always gone well in Abu Dhabi - Lewis set a stunning pole at the first-ever grand prix in 2009 and led until his retirement; the last time, in fact, that we failed to get two cars home in the points. Additionally, in 2010, both Jenson and Lewis finished on the podium, while Lewis finally delivered on two years promise by winning spectacularly last year. Its a circuit that both drivers enjoy, and which plays to our cars strengths, so I feel confident that well have a strong race weekend.
Michael Schumacher, Mercedes
2011 Qualifying - 8th, 2011 Race - 7th
Abu Dhabi is one of the races I look forward to travelling to. The facilities there are state of the art, very modern and very attractive. The timing of the race makes it even more appealing: it's something quite special and uniquely fun to race from day into night. Admittedly, 'fun' is not exactly the right word to describe the race I had on Sunday in India. However, I hope that what we learned about our car across the weekend can be translated into something positive in Abu Dhabi.
Nico Rosberg, Mercedes
2011 Qualifying - 7th, 2011 Race - 6th
The Abu Dhabi race is one of the highlights on the calendar and every year it seems to become better and better. I really enjoy driving the track, particularly with the unusual twilight conditions, and the setting around Yas Marina is very special. On the track, tyre work will again be crucial this weekend. We are working hard on it and our goals this weekend will be to score some points and to learn for next year.
Ross Brawn, Mercedes team principal
The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix has very quickly established itself as one of the most spectacular races on the calendar, and the Yas Marina Circuit is certainly one of the most impressive of the new Formula One venues. The weekend will also be the final home race of the season for our team with our shareholder and partner aabar based in Abu Dhabi. Our team has had a challenging time during the season-ending flyaway races so far. However, we are continuing to work hard on improving our performance, while also taking the opportunity to look at developments which will be relevant next season. We would like to end the season on a positive note, and hope to have a stronger result this weekend.
Norbert Haug, Vice-President, Mercedes-Benz Motorsport
The final leg of the 2012 season set every team the challenge of racing six times in six countries over eight weekends, split between Asia, the USA and Brazil. The race in Abu Dhabi begins the second half of this cycle. Every team member has been working with total focus during this demanding period and deserves to be rewarded with better results before the season reaches its conclusion. This will be the fourth visit to Abu Dhabi which is, along with Great Britain, Germany and Malaysia, one of our home races and certainly a season highlight. The facilities in Abu Dhabi are exceptional and the spectacle of the day-night race is unique in the Formula One calendar. The Yas Marina Circuit itself is a real contrast to last weekend's venue in New Delhi: the brakes are worked very hard, with eleven braking events around the lap; 14 of the circuit's 21 corners are taken at 150 km/h or below; and the cars exceed 290 km/h on four separate occasions around the lap. Overtaking is difficult in spite of the long straights and many braking zones but the DRS zones significantly improved the situation last year. Overall, the level of competition behind the quickest teams has got ever closer throughout the season and a few tenths of a second in lap time can make a difference of many positions in both qualifying and the race.
Kimi Raikkonen, Lotus
2011 Qualifying - n/a, 2011 Race - n/a
The facilities are second to none at Abu Dhabi. The track layout makes it really challenging for overtaking, while there are not too many places to pass. You really have to qualify well to be on the top, and to get a strong result from there. There are many corners and you need good overall downforce and grip. The car has to ride the kerbs very well, too. Having an evening race with a mixture of day and night makes a different challenge from circuits that we see anywhere else. We start with the sun and finish with the lights. Its different, interesting and spectacular too. Hopefully we can be a bit smarter and use our race speed to take some more championship points. The car is good, and if we manage to qualify higher, then I think we would be in a good position to be able to take the most from the next few races.
Romain Grosjean, Lotus
2011 Qualifying - n/a, 2011 Race - n/a
Abu Dhabi is another exotic destination. The track is not used very much during the year which means we know were going to get low grip there at the start of the weekend. The track looks very nice on TV and there are many second gear corners which should suit the E20; Im looking forward to it! I have a lot of good memories from Abu Dhabi and know it quite well. Last year I took pole position and finished second in the GP2 Asia Series race and I have also won a GT1 World Championship race there. Most recently, my return to Formula One came at this circuit in a free practice session with the team last year so Im looking forward to returning. Its normally sunny and a nice place to be. Lets see what we can do.
Eric Boullier, Lotus team principal
"I think we have some interesting developments coming for Abu Dhabi which should allow us to have more speed and even better performance from the car. Ideally this should put us in a position to have a more successful qualifying and definitely also help us in the race itself. Therefore, we look ahead to Abu Dhabi as being an interesting race for us. We will try to be in the top six for qualifying, and maintain or improve that for the race to bring some important points home.
James Allison, Lotus technical director
Yas Marina doesnt have a very wide range of corners, and in fact they are all rather slow speed. This hasnt been our favourite type of track over the season as a whole, but it is not dissimilar to Valencia and we went pretty well there.
Pedro de la Rosa, HRT
2011 Qualifying - n/a, 2011 Race - n/a
"The Yas Marina is a circuit where braking, maximum speed and grip are essential and its very smooth so you can be aggressive with the height and bring out a very low car. I know the track from when I tested with Pirelli, although Ive never taken part in the Grand Prix, and its a very nice circuit and even more so at night time. Our car should adapt quite well, especially in the first sector which is made up of straights and braking areas. It will be another tough challenge for our brakes so its very important to understand what happened in India, fix it and try to finish the race.
Narain Karthikeyan, HRT
2011 Qualifying - n/a, 2011 Race - n/a
"Ive never been to Abu Dhabi; it will be my first time racing there and I hope to adapt well to do the best job possible. The circuit looks fantastic and there will also be a lot of Indian fans spurring me on which is always helpful. After finishing the Indian Grand Prix in front of my home crowd Im determined to complete another good weekend in Abu Dhabi.
Ma Qing Hua, HRT test driver
"I'm delighted to have another chance to drive again during a Grand Prix weekend with HRT F1 Team. After my two Friday outings in Monza and Singapore, I've continued to work hard both physically and mentally to be well prepared for opportunities like this one. Apart from the gym and the simulator, I've spent a lot of time going karting as it's one of the best ways to train, keep fit and stay focused. To be able to continue gaining experience in a Formula One car and adding more miles to my tally is essential for me right now and I want to thank the team for making it happen. I'm getting to know the car and the engineers more each time and this makes me more confident every time I step in the car. My target now is to keep on progressing and learning from the team. I'm really looking forward to getting back out on track and it will be interesting to drive at a circuit like Abu Dhabi where I have never been before."
Luis Perez-Sala, HRT team principal
"The Yas Marina is a circuit I like with fantastic facilities and the race and everything surrounding it is spectacular. The target will be to finish with both cars after having not done in the last few races. I hope we have a good performance and that the problem we suffered with the brakes in India doesnt reoccur in Abu Dhabi. Ma has been training and Im happy to be giving him another opportunity to step into the car at a circuit hell enjoy and that will help him to continue progressing and accumulating experience.
Paul Hembery, Pirelli motorsport director
We will always have very fond memories of the Abu Dhabi circuit because it is where our adventure in Formula One really started: back in 2010, the teams sampled our tyres there for the very first time at the official end of season test following the grand prix. That was a very special test, as we were brand new and the teams needed to understand our tyres. Weve returned to test in Abu Dhabi a few times since, and we actually launched our 2012 programme to the international media there as well at the beginning of this year. The reason why weve often chosen Abu Dhabi for our testing and for other functions is because it has a bit of everything, which enables each aspect of a tyres performance to be thoroughly assessed, and because the track itself features some very modern, state-of-the-art facilities. We know that the combination of the medium and the soft tyre works extremely well here, and with the teams also having plenty of data about the circuit characteristics, they should be in a strong position to construct some race strategies that will make a real difference to the outcome of the weekend. With the championship so closely balanced now, having the right strategy could quite literally decide the title. Qualifying is also really important in Abu Dhabi, so we are expecting to see some strong efforts throughout the three qualifying sessions on Saturday.
Lucas di Grassi, Pirelli test driver
Abu Dhabi is one of those races that is as much of a challenge for the engineers as it is for the drivers. Its all about car balance and getting that right: the driver doesnt make as much of a difference as he can do in places like Spa and Suzuka, for instance. In terms of infrastructure, Abu Dhabi for me is the best circuit in the world: its a great place for people to watch Formula One cars, with a little bit of everything and a spectacular setting. Tyre wear is not such a big issue in Abu Dhabi - good traction is the most important consideration - but the work done in free practice will be even more important than usual, as it will be vital for the teams to find a good balance on both compounds. The difference in speed between them should be quite small if the car set-up is right. With the championship coming to a close, everyone will be trying to find the last tiny advantage, so from a technical and strategy point of view it will be very interesting. With reasonably high ambient temperatures tyre warm-up should not be a problem, even with the harder compound. I would expect most teams to go with two pit stops, but some drivers might try stopping just once.
Kamui Kobayashi, Sauber
2011 Qualifying - 16th, 2011 Race - 10th
I find the Grand Prix in Abu Dhabi very exciting because its a twilight race, and the only one of the season. Its very special to start in daylight and then race in the dark. This creates a really unique atmosphere, which I like. For me Abu Dhabi is a special race anyway because it was only my second Grand Prix back in 2009, and actually a very good one as I was able to score points. So I will go there with positive feelings. Something we need to bear in mind is that there are no GP2 cars running this year between our sessions, which means the track can be quite dusty again each time our sessions start. Anyway thats an issue for everybody and doesnt affect our goal to score points.
Sergio Perez, Sauber
2011 Qualifying - 11th, 2011 Race - 11th
Abu Dhabi is a very special place for me. It was there where I jumped into a Formula One car for the very first time. This was only two years ago, but it feels as if this test took place ages ago. Time goes by very quickly in Formula One. I had worked so hard to get into this cockpit and I remember very well all the special emotions attached to that moment. It had been a great race weekend back in 2010 anyway, because I had won the GP2 race on Saturday by a good margin of over 20 seconds. In 2012 the Grand Prix will be one of my last races for the team which gave me the chance to get into F1. I will give my utmost to get a very good result. I want to help the team to increase its championship position and for me personally I want to make sure I finish the season on a high.
Giampaolo DallAra, Sauber head of track engineering
Abu Dhabi is a modern type track, featuring all the characteristics you can ask for - high speed, low speed, long straights and changes of direction. Compared to the tracks in Korea and India maybe it is a bit less biased towards high-speed corners. Braking stability and good traction are crucial for a good lap time because the low-speed performance is quite relevant. The tarmac is quite abrasive. Pirelli will allocate the soft and the medium compounds, which might be a little bit on the conservative side. As in India there are two DRS sections with two detection zones. One of these DRS sections has been extended which should help overtaking. But the most special thing about this event is the fact we race in the dusk. This requires us to adapt some of our work, especially in free practice one and three when its very hot. Free practice two is of particular importance because then the conditions are those that are most comparable to the ones we will experience in qualifying and the race.

Praised for his "brash and energetic" humor by the Anchorage Daily News, Correale is a veteran of the comedy club and festival circuit as well as television talk shows like "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," "Late Night with David Letterman" and "Last Call with Carson Daily," and co-hosted the Sirius satellite radio show "Breuer Unleashed" with former "Saturday Night Live" star Jim Breuer for four years. The Long Island native began his comedy career after graduating from college in 1992 and moving to New York City, where he cooked hamburgers and mopped floors at the New York Comedy Club in exchange for stage time late in the night to hone his act. He quickly rose to headliner status and began making his living as a comedian. "The Things We Do For Love" features Correale in front of a New York City streetscape set making his pungent observations on the absurdities, contradictions and weirdness of everyday life from the perspective of a regular guy (albeit one with a wickedly funny wit). The special spotlights his gift for finding laughs in love, marriage, drinking, smoking cigarettes in an increasingly non-smoking world, being married versus single, and living in New York City, among many other topics. Essential to the collective implication of "The Things We Do For Love," his wife is an unseen presence yet integral partner throughout in many of Correale's wickedly funny tales. Whether the subject is life and health insurance, taking his nieces and nephews to the Bronx Zoo, being a dog owner, carnival rides, or his sister running in the New York Marathon, Correale zeroes in on the inherent humor in everything he encounters and experiences to evoke fervent and knowing laughter from the live audience at the special's taping.
His first big breaks were appearing at Canada's prestigious Just For Laughs Festival in 2000 in its New Faces showcase and making his national TV debut on NBC's "Late Friday." Other television appearances include NBC's "Friday Night" and Comedy Central's "Premium Blend" and "Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn," co-starring in the pilot for a Jim Breuer series for Fox, and being a featured comic in 2004 on MTV's live pre-game "Superbowl Bash." He has showcased his stand up at the 2008 Comedy Festival in Las Vegas, New York Comedy Festival, the HBO U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen and the 2005 Bonnaroo music festival. Correale has also taken his act international at Ireland's Kilkenny Cat Laughs Comedy Festival and was invited to perform in London, England on the BBC/Comedy Central show "The World Stands Up" that featured the best comedy acts from around the globe. He has been appearing in 2008 into 2009 on the third annual Jameson Comedy Tour. In April, Correale headlines the historic first-ever Beirut Stand Up Comedy Festival in Lebanon.
Correale has participated in such charity events as Comics Come Home fundraiser at Boston University, and was invited to entertain the first U.S. troops coming home from Iraq at a show aboard the U.S.S. Intrepid aircraft carrier in New York City. He has also worked as a comedy writer for shows on MTV and Comedy Central, and acted in starring roles in the films The Gynecologists, American Dummy and Act of Contrition. With his tabloid front-page styled website, the comic keeps his hilarity buzzing on the Internet. He is an avid sports fan and devoted follower of the New York Yankees who earned an All American honorable mention playing high school basketball and played for SUNY Fredonia in his college years. He lives with his wife in Manhattan, where he keeps his act sharp appearing at the city's comedy clubs when not on tour.
Correale's humor connects so strongly because it's reality-based comedy that comes from the laughs he finds in his own life. "If it happened to me, it happened to someone else," he observes. "I like to tell stories that happen to me and find the joke in it. Whether it's putting together furniture for my wife, or walking my dog at 2 AM or hanging out with buddies having a few beers, it's all things we do for love." And with Correale, the things that also provide hilarity in spades.

Electronic device that operates on the basis of the electric, magnetic, or optical properties of a solid material, especially one that uses a solid crystal in which an orderly three-dimensional arrangement of atoms, ions, or molecules is repeated throughout the entire crystal. Synthetic crystals of elements such as silicon, gallium arsenide, and germanium are used in transistors, rectifiers, and integrated circuits. The first solid-state device was the "cat's whisker" (1906), in which a fine wire was moved across a solid crystal to detect a radio signal. Seealso semiconductor.

Solid form of a liquid solution. As with liquids, a tendency for mutual solubility exists between any two coexisting solids (i.e., each can mix with the other); depending on the chemical similarities of the solids, mutual solubility of two substances may be 100percnt (as between silver and gold), or it may be near 0 (as between copper and bismuth).

One of the three basic states of matter. A solid forms from either a liquid or a gas (the other two states of matter) because, as the energy of the atoms decreases, they coalesce in the relatively ordered, three-dimensional structure of a solid. All solids have the ability to support loads applied either perpendicular (normal) or parallel (shear) to a surface. Solids can be crystalline (as in metals), amorphous (as in glass), or quasicrystalline (as in certain metal alloys), depending on the degree of order in the arrangement of the atoms.

Spotlight on offensive linemen
Spotlight on offensive linemen
By Ed Bouchette, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and Jay Paris, North County (Calif.) Times Elite: Steelers' Alan Faneca PITTSBURGH ? Russ Grimm knows offensive line play the way an old Hog knows slop. Grimm was a ringleader of many great Washington Redskins lines, an all-1980s NFL guard with three Super Bowl rings and, this past year, a top 10 finalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame. He coaches the Steelers' offensive line and, after 24 years in the NFL, knows a good lineman when he sees one. He sees a great one every day in Pittsburgh guard Alan Faneca. The NFL Alumni Association named Faneca the NFL's best offensive lineman in 2004 ? not just the best guard, the best of all the front five in the league. He's become a dominant force behind the Steelers' power running game and a supreme pass protector, so good that he played half the 2003 season at left tackle. Rest of the article: http://www.usatoday.com/sports/footb...ht-oline_x.htm This is a good read. Faneca is one great player. I hope he stays in Pittsburgh for his whole career. |

Home → > State Board of Corrections > Corrections Working Group > Focus Groups > Victim Services June Stakeholders Meeting Report
Stakeholder's Meeting - Victim Notification Policy Report
On June 5, 2009, the Board of Corrections Victim Services Focus Group held a stakeholders meeting to address the need for
- a uniform policy for victim notification of prisoner release
- and a uniform process for notification to domestic violence victims of an arrestees release on bail.
The revised drafts reflect the report outs from the meeting.
Currently the revisions are being reviewed by the Victim Services focus group and will be presented to the Board of Corrections in July.
- Consistency
- Comprehensive
- Protection
- Clearly identifies the procedure
- Definition of victims
- Designated staff to do the notification
- Policy intent is inclusive
- Statutory conditions
- Notification of release form is clear
- Clearly indicates the information that is allow to be released.
- Emergency notification is not limited to specific events.
- It notifies victims of supervised home confinement
Delta - Needs Improvement
- Some Procedures
- DOC vs. Riverview – informing of location
- Add to notification "Certified Mail" notice
- Notification is allowed to leave messages or give to a 3 rd party.
- Changes in discharge dates
- Evaluation criteria
- The process of finding victims who have moved.
- Should include the LE Agency in geographic area.
- Victim information to follow the prisoner when transferred.
- Clarify – it should include Class D crimes
- Time to notify if the offender bails or gets time served.
- Mental health issues.
- No Fail Safe to protect the victim.
- Verification Process – it seems to be missing and needs to be defined and provided to victims and communication service providers.
- Definitions
- Policy
- Procedures/Protocols
- Verification/Accountability
- Frequently asked questions and release dates
- Victims updating their information
- Add Victim Svc. Agency as avenue for request.
- Automatic registry of victims rather than they requesting notification.
- The Notification Form seems to be asking for too much information.
- Human Trafficking covered for notification.
- VI - 6 VWA must notify victim
- Why do victims who choose to visit the offender give up their rights to do so if they fill out a request of notification? (unless prohibited)
- This is on the request form submitted by the prosecutors office, the purpose is for safety of other visitors and staff
- What about Pre-Release Convictions?
- Bail after conviction but prior to sentencing, notification is usually done by the victim witness advocate
- What is the definition of "Serious"?
- Any offense can be considered serious by the person impacted.
- Can DOC harassment policy extend to the jails?
- The jails could establish a similar policy based on service of a harassment order by a law enforcement officer
- What to do about offenders bailed to Victim's address.
- Information should be provided to the bail commissioner and a no contact condition added.
- How do victims know they have a right to be notified?
- Victim witness advocates provide information to victims regarding post conviction release notification
- How are they notified about what the process involves, who to contact, what are the resources?
- 17-A M.R.S.A. Section 1172 (2) requires the prosecutor to provide victims with a pamphlet which outlines their rights.
Suggested Policy Wording
- VI Procedure 2:a – not "upon release", should be "before release".
- VI Procedure 2:c – should be worded "before release".
- A better definition of what information victims can have about offender i.e. release dates, programs…..
Bail Notification Policy Report
- All victims notifications will be documented
- It allows broader notification then just DV.
- Good Intent/great advances made.
- The investigating officer should know how to reach victims.
- Documentation is good.
- Good but arbitrary #3.
- Focus group to include jails is great.
- DV Form including victim contact info required
- Consistency
- Option to notify in appropriate non-DV cases.
- Documentation required
- Flagging Files
- Mandatory transfer of packets
Delta – Needs Improvement
- There isn't anything in place for victims that are underground due to an incident and are unable to be contacted by law enforcement.
- There should be a jail victim advocate who would handle all the information and who the victims would contact if they relocated.
- Need a process to ensure victims are giving contact information to obtain the information they are seeking.
- Does not "ensure" notification; it's up to dispatch or intake to notify LE – it should clearly state who contacts LE. Unclearly written.
- Have dispatch or intake do the contact instead of LE.
- Intake (custodial agency) to do Victim Notification, then if no contact advise LE – exclude dispatch.
- Bail forms from court not readable
- Breakdown in communication between agencies
- Standardize the notification form and integrate it into the booking or transport sheet.
- Confidentiality – making it separate and uniform in all jails.
- Make information available by website.
- Include additional crimes requiring notification.
- Need feedback system – to guarantee VN has occurred
- Documentation required by all
- Clarify definition of DV offence – LE should clearly note DV cases.
- Doesn't include Alternate contact person and phone number
- Needs to be a mandatory transfer packet.
- Why aren't we notifying all victims instead of just DV victims?
- Current statute on bail release notification is specific to domestic violence arrests
- Under 17-A § 1175… not all hate crimes are felonies, which hate crimes do have victims that would want a notification….. Statute change???
- Statute change is something to consider.
- How do victims know what the bail conditions are?
- The Victim Witness Advocate in the prosecutors office would be able to answer victim's questions regarding bail conditions.
- Who will take the information when the system fails the victims to explore what happened.
- At this time, a failure to notify a victim of release on bail should be brought to the attention of the jail administrator and sheriff for follow up. Statute currently requires the arresting law enforcement agency to notify the victim once the agency receives notification of the release from the jail.

Cheltenham have confirmed that goalkeeper Connor Roberts will leave the club after being released from his contract.
The Wales Under-21 shot-stopper has been with the Robins for two years but made just one appearance, on the final day of last season.
And after meeting with boss Mark Yates on Tuesday he was told he would not be offered a new deal.
"He is a good professional and his achievements with the Wales Under-21 squad have been good for his career but I spoke with Connor earlier and I want to thank him for his efforts during his time with the club," Yates told the club's official website.
"We all wish him the very best for the next step in his career."

Mussar is an inspiring approach to everyday living. This ethical and spiritual practice invites you to study the Jewish perspectives on character traits (middot) such as patience, forgiveness, generosity and anger (to name a few). Through self-reflection, personal journaling, and focused exercises, you will be able to set your own curriculum regarding how to use these traits in your lives. Mussar's purpose is to help you overcome the obstacles to inner wholeness, holiness, and closeness to God.
The practice of Mussar is accessible to all people, regardless of age, gender, religious affiliation or level of Jewish knowledge. The only criteria for participation are that you have had some experience of the human condition and that you have a desire to grow spiritually.
The first step on the path of Mussar is to realize that our essence is the soul and that all aspects of ego and personality flow from that essence. At its core, the soul is pure, but habits, tendencies and imbalances often obscure some of that inner light.
The lessons of Mussar are all intended to help us correct whatever shortcomings may be preventing the light of our soul from shining through.
-Alan Morinis
Please contact me if you are interested in individual Mussar study or consultation, or to participate in a Mussar group.
For further information about Mussar, go to website of The Mussar Institute: www.mussarinstitute.org.
Testimonial: I have prided myself on not being religious so it was a surprise when I found myself engaged in the daily practice of Mussar and noticing the not-so-subtle behavioral changes that have made me a better person. They seemed to happen effortlessly. I was not "trying to change"–I was "practicing" the middah of the week. The support for doing the daily practice that I got from Nancy's group was a great boon, and as a complete bonus, brought me the friendship of many wonderful people similarly engaged.

5 Very competitivePosted: 11/11/2010This game is as good as Wii sports if not better. Like previous reviews of the Kinect sensor it requires a fair bit of space and as yet we have coped and have not noticed it interfer with the game.So on to the game itself, well the boxing is superb controls and moves well, and trust you will feel it in the morning as i am now, the track and field is fantastic and competing with the wife it got fairly competitive at times. All in all this game is well worth the money and defo one for the family at xmas. Can't wait to get back on it (except my arms hurt)
5 Impressed!!Posted: 17/11/2008I have always preferred Fifa over Pro Evo until recently that is.I picked up 08 for a couple of quid and was very impressed, it didnt take long before i got the hang of it, but now i found that the matches are not that realistic, when you can beat Inter 5-0 who are top but lose to Napoli 1-0 who are bottom and you don't really need to add to your team either. Thankfully the same cannot be said about 09's installment.Now I was put off this right from the start by playing the demo and reading various reviews but after receiving it as a present recently i am now hooked! Awesome graphics, fantastic detail (being a Liverpool fan i'm well impressed with how life like the team look not to mention the detail on the kit) and the playabilty is immense i now find it a lot harder to score, you really do have to pass the ball around and think about what you are doing instead of taking the whole team on and slotting it nicely in the corner of the goal as i found out with Torres in 08. The Edit facility is endless i am really enjoying changing all the kit's and moderninsing the teams and players (sad i know). I have yet to play online, become a pro or take part in the champions league but if it is anything as good as what i have seen so far i can't wait. All i'll say with this game is make up your own mind, don't be to hasty give it a try, you'll enjoy it.
4 Bargain for £10!Posted: 15/11/2008First off i will go as far as saying this is nowhere near as bad as i was expecting. I found it quite refreshing that EA have taken this latest installment away from the illegal street racing scene and tried something new, don't get me wrong i enjoyed getting chased by the police and the rest of it but it was getting quite repetative. The graphics are great as is the wide selection of rides, there are endless ways off pimping up your ride to boot. Overall the only thing that still bugs the pants off me to this day is having to keep paying to get my ride repaired after every event as it is nigh on impossible to get through a race without damaging it in someway. So all in all i am still enjoying this installment as much as the rest of them, bring on NFS Undercover.

Michigan Wolverines
Print without images
Thursday, May 9, 2013
WolverineNation Roundtable
By WolverineNation staff
Every Thursday our writers sit down to chat about Michigan sports. Today they're talking Big Ten (football and basketball) and hypothetical 7-on-7 drafts.
Where do you see Michigan finishing in the Big Ten this season?
Chantel Jennings:
I think their last Big Ten game will be the Ohio State game, which will be a loss in Columbus. I don't see them making the championship game.
Tom VanHaaren:
I think Michigan ends up with one Big Ten loss, potentially two, in the end. I think the one loss comes to Ohio State and they miss the Big Ten championship game because of the loss. Michigan is on the right track and will have a great 2013 season, but I think the 2014 season is when everything really gets going.
Ohio State's Aaron Craft and Michigan's Trey Burke showcased a competition this season worthy of watching again.
Michael Rothstein:
I've said this since the beginning and I'm sticking to it -- 9-3 overall, 6-2 in the Big Ten with losses to Northwestern and Ohio State (the nonconference loss is Notre Dame). The record, though, is good enough for a rematch in the Big Ten championship game, where the Wolverines fall to Ohio State for the second consecutive week.
If you could watch a rematch of any of Michigan's Big Ten basketball games from the 2012-13 season -- on a neutral floor this time -- who would it be?
Ohio State. The
Trey Burke
Aaron Craft
matchup lived up to its billing and I'd love to see that again. And again. And again. Plus, with
Mitch McGary
as a full-fledged inside presence this time around, I think it'd be a really fun game to watch.
Michigan State. I think Burke and
Gary Harris
would both like to take another crack at one another. In fact, I'd be OK with just watching a one-on-one rematch of those two. I think Burke would take the game, but Harris would put up quite the fight.
I would have wanted to see a third Michigan-Indiana game -- mostly because the first two were extremely entertaining. The Hoosiers and Wolverines were probably two of the four most talented teams in college basketball last season and it would have been very interesting to see how they played out without the obvious home court advantages.
You're drafting a 2014 team for a passing league this summer -- who are your first three picks of the 2014 class?
My first pick is quarterback
David Cornwell
(Norman, Okla./North). He'd be solid in the short game, our team wouldn't need any bombs, just consistency and accuracy -- he'd bring it. Second pick:
Leonard Fournette
(New Orleans/St. Augustine). He's shifty, fast and has good hands. Also he's the No. 1 prospect in the 2014 class. Not too shabby. Third pick:
Speedy Noil
. Why? A) Because we need someone with an awesome name. Our team lacks that so far. B) He's the top athlete in the ESPN 150 and we could use him on both sides of the ball.
Jabrill Peppers
(Paramus, N.J./Paramus Catholic) because he can play offense and defense for you, so he's a double whammy. Adoree Jackson (Gardena, Calif./Junipero Serra) for the same reason as Peppers, and then probably wide receiver
Ermon Lane
(Homestead, Fla./Homestead Senior) to add a little more size and a true pass catcher to the mix. I didn't pick a quarterback in the top three because if I have those guys listed then it might not even matter who's throwing the ball. It could be me out there and it wouldn't hurt us.
I'd start with Peppers. He's the best cornerback in the country, and in a 7-on-7 situation you want a lockdown corner to take away one side of the field. Then I'd look to offense, where I would want to grab
Deshaun Watson
(Gainesville, Ga./Gainesville), the No. 1 dual-threat quarterback in the country. Why him? Simple. I prefer to have dual-threat guys as my quarterback, and I like his size-speed combination. I'd finish at receiver, where I'd take
Drake Harris
(Grand Rapids, Mich./Grand Rapids Christian). I like having a tall, fast guy for Watson to throw to, and Harris fits that mold. He has the potential to be star and has great leaping ability.

Where the Lynx Are?
By Kim Todd
The number of breeding lynx populations in the continental United States can be counted on one hand. Mountain ranges and valleys with recent sightings are equally rare. Yet these areas continue to be compromised by logging, mining, and off-road vehicles. Heres a look at some of the lynx habitat the Sierra Club is trying to save.
The Cabinet-Yaak Ecosystem: Not only lynx, but grizzlies, wolves, fishers, and wolverines all take refuge under the Cabinet-Yaak ecosystems 500-year-old trees. But this shelter is being stripped away. The Yaak Mountains in the northwest corner of Montana continue to be heavily clearcut. In addition, the American Smelting and Refining Company (ASARCO), a corporation with a legacy of 40 Superfund sites, has proposed a copper and silver mine that would tunnel under a portion of the Cabinet Mountains that is designated wilderness.
Okanogan National Forest: Along with Montana, Okanogan County in Washington State represents some of the best hope for the future of the species in the Lower 48. Lynx find dens in the downed wood and complex root systems of the boreal forest, but clearcuts and other logging increasingly obstruct a much-needed corridor to healthy populations in British Columbia. The Meadows, a group of roadless areas in Okanogan National Forest marked by lush valleys and lodgepole pine, is a prime candidate for wilderness protection.
Maines North Woods: For a long time, no one was sure if lynx in Maines North Woods were breeding or just passing through, but two kittens turned up in 1999, and last spring scientists found 22 near the Musquacook Lakes. Timber companies own much of the forest in northern Maine, and recently theyve stepped up the pace of logging; local operators are selling to larger companies and real estate developers, making the future of this habitat uncertain.
In addition to areas with established populations, vacant lynx habitat needs protection. This January, the Sierra Club and other environmental groups won a court battle, with the judge calling on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to designate critical habitat for the lynxsomething that should have been done years agoand to reconsider the lynxs status in the Northeast, Great Lakes, and southern Rockies.

Amica Insurance offers tips for a safe holiday weekend
LINCOLN, RI – Labor Day weekend has become the unofficial end to summer, and many families will be celebrating with cookouts and parties. But holiday weekends also bring an increased risk of motor vehicle accidents, so Amica Insurance reminds you to celebrate responsibly.
"Many people will be traveling this weekend, so it's important to stay alert and be extra cautious on the roads," said Lisa DeCubellis, a senior assistant vice president with Amica. "Allow plenty of time to reach your destination, and if you're traveling on a long trip, take frequent breaks and remember to stop when you're tired."
Here are a few other reminders:
- Don't drink and drive. Make sure you have a designated driver.
- Give the police your version of what happened. Always ask for the police officer's name, department and incident number.
- Exchange information with the other vehicle's owner and obtain contact information from passengers and/or witnesses.
- Take photos and videos of the scene if it's safe to do so.
If you are in an accident, remain calm, turn your hazard lights on and pull off the road, if it is safe to do so, DeCubellis said. If anyone is injured, call 911 immediately.
Here are a few other tips if you are involved in an accident:
- Contact emergency personnel.
- Make sure the exhaust pipe is clear of snow to prevent a backup of carbon monoxide and crack a window for fresh air.
- Run the engine in short bursts, for 10 minutes at a time.
Amica.com also offers an accident checklist you can print and keep in your car DeCubellis said. It's also available on the Amica mobile app.
"Safety is the top priority, so slow down," DeCubellis said. "So please buckle up and have an enjoyable holiday weekend."

What is the Enterprise Systems Roadmap?
The Enterprise Systems Roadmap is a series of campus and technology projects that are being implemented and aligned to benefit the University.
As the University continues to grow, the need to enhance services, technology, process, and people is a significant undertaking requiring a solid foundation.
A considerable amount of time has been spent to identify key weaknesses, challenges and opportunities in our core enterprise systems supporting the University. The Enterprise Systems Roadmap is the path we have laid out to address these items.
I have heard that some current projects must wait, or that other projects are included in the Roadmap?
The key projects included in the Roadmap have been determined.
There are a number of projects that will be going on outside of the Roadmap; not everything is part of this initiative.
If a project requires significant changes to PeopleSoft systems or would create a conflict with a Roadmap project, we will work to align the initiatives. The Roadmap is not a catch-all for projects and will not solve every issue ever identified.
If you have requested a project or defined a need and you would like to know if it is part of the Roadmap, please feel free to contact us at email@example.com.
What is the schedule for all these activities?
The high-level schedule currently lists the major components of the Roadmap project. All projects are expected to complete by Fall 2014.
Various projects will have different timetables. Some projects will begin before others, and some will be short and finish significantly ahead of others.
Why are some staff being committed full-time?
For an initiative like this to be accomplished in a timely fashion and ensure success, it takes resources devoted full-time to the efforts of delivering Roadmap projects.
Most of us experience interruptions in our day-to-day activities. Ten minutes here, ten minutes there add up to a significant amount of time and have an impact on accomplishing objectives.
The projects in the Roadmap are integrated projects, and a delay in one can result in delays in several others; this translates into increased costs to the University. To mitigate that risk, some staff will be allocated to the Roadmap full-time. In other cases, involvement will be limited or part-time.
As we evaluate the projects and define the necessary project requirements, we will work with departments to allocate resource time to the Roadmap projects.
Does my input matter?
Yes, for projects to be successful, input from across the campus is incredibly important.
To elaborate: Input is not just a comment or issue. In our projects it actually means involvement and engagement.
Input is best obtained by bringing individuals and groups into the process, and that is already happening via campus Fit-Gap sessions, User Conferences, and Open User Forums.
Most of these projects impact the campus departments and staff. How do I get involved?
As we upgrade, re-engineer, change, grow and implement, the Project Leadership Team is actively engaging across academic and administrative areas. We are informing the campus community, and working to establish contacts throughout the University.
However, if for any reason you feel that you are being or have been left out, please do not hesitate to contact us by emailing email@example.com, or contact a member of the Project Leadership Team.
Who is involved and participating in the Roadmap Projects?
The Project Leadership Team manages University Enterprise Roadmap projects.
Who is in charge of these projects?
There are several levels of management and governance established for the Roadmap projects. At the core, the Roadmap project has a Project Leadership Team made up of staff from key areas of the University (Finance, HR, Student Systems, Academia, Research, OIT). This team is the group that provides the day-to-day program leadership. The Leadership Team will ensure we are working to engage the campus and that our goals and deliverables are achieved.
The Leadership Team reports to the IT Priority Committee (ITPC) as a first level of governance. This group also has representation of key areas around the campus, but at a much higher level. This group will help in directing, counseling, reviewing and providing a point of escalated decision making as needed.
The final group is the Information Technology Governance Council (ITGC). The group is comprised of University executives. This group helps ensure that we maintain a campus commitment of resources, direction, and sponsorship; and will serve as the final decision authority for any material major scope and funding as the project moves forward.
How were these projects selected?
In evaluating the project options, we focused the first round of the Roadmap on projects that provide a solid foundation and create a sustainable framework. Each of the projects has various reasons for being taken on during this initiative.
Also, certain projects were chosen because some current Boise State systems are past their life cycle, and we are at risk of losing vendor support.
In other cases, projects will introduce new technology to provide additional flexibility and free up resources over the long-term to be able to do more for the University.
At the core, this series of projects establishes a path to move the University forward and improve services, resources, process and systems.
Why is it important to undertake these projects?
Because we must.
Most of our current enterprise systems were implemented between 1999-2001. We have upgraded, customized and/or changed these systems multiple times as needs have arisen.
Now a point has come where the maintenance of our systems and customizations is reaching an unsustainable cost, and is limiting our ability to respond and innovate as a campus.
Concurrently, systems have evolved and so has the technology around them. We have options today that did not exist five or more years ago that provide a better foundation, opportunities for improvement, and a sustainable framework to help the campus move forward.
The Roadmap projects were identified as key areas where we want to move forward quickly and aggressively to benefit the campus.
Is the Roadmap a single project?
The Roadmap is a collection of projects that, when completed, will provide a significant leap forward in efficiency, flexibility, and opportunity for the University as well as provide sustainability, cost savings and a solid foundation for innovation in organization.
The current items that have been identified as part of the core Roadmap projects are:
- Enterprise Research Management System Implementation
- Requirements Definition
- System Identification
- Implementation
- PeopleSoft Financial Systems Upgrade
- Financial Chart of Accounts Requirements and Design
- Finance 9.1 Upgrade
- PeopleSoft Human Resources Upgrade
- Core Requirements, Process, and Configuration Design
- Human Resources Systems Split from Student
- Human Resources 9.1 Upgrade
- PeopleSoft Campus Solutions
- Process Assessment and Functionality Review
- Core Structures Assessment
- Campus Solutions Split from Human Resources
- System Update
- Enterprise Data Warehouse and Reporting – Implementation
- Complete Student Module
- Implement Financial Reporting Module
- Implement Human Resources Reporting Module
- Implement Financial Aid Reporting Module
- Enterprise Document Management and Imaging
- Enterprise Identity and Account Management
- Campus Unified Web Experience (my.boisestate.edu)
- Enterprise Integration and Web Services (SOA)
- EAF Replacement
- Establishment of an IT Project Management Office
- Implement Oracle UPK
- Implement a Documentation Repository
- Key Infrastructure Upgrades
These major projects will be associated with sub-projects and deliverables such as process assessment and re-engineering, assessment and improved integration with campus systems, security improvements and updates, improved online services and assistance, and improved system usability.
Customizations are talked about a lot. Is the PeopleSoft Renovation Project stopping or eliminating all customizations?
The goal of this project is not to stop customizing or eliminate all customizations; not all customizations or changes are bad.
Our systems are designed to fit a common model. In a number of cases, Boise State can easily fit the model. In some cases, such as specific State of Idaho reporting requirements, we cannot. As we go through the Roadmap, we want to learn as a campus when it makes sense to customize a system and when it does not. We want to learn to leverage the systems we own and utilize the capabilities that exist to meet our business needs as effectively and efficiently as possible. Over the course of the Roadmap project we will assess processes and customizations and evaluate our options.
A customization carries a short and long term cost, in that it has to be designed, developed, tested, implemented and then maintained through upgrades, patches and changes over time. Those are factors we have to evaluate against. As we go forward we are going to find a number of instances where the system meets our needs perfectly, and we are going to find times when it does not.
The difference in the approach going forward is to evaluate our options and make decisions based on improved technology, available resources and/or business value, and know that we are customizing or not customizing for the right reasons.

This is the best lip treatment I have ever used. It was recommended on the ITG blog and they were certainly right. My entire family uses it now. The only downside I can think of is that it can be hard to find in stores so I usually order it online. I have used this product for about two years. No more chapped or dry lips....
If you're looking for a heavy-duty treatment for chronically chapped lips, keep looking.
To prep the lips, however, as a primer rather than a moisturizer, Avene Cold Cream Lip Cream's lighter texture, surprising given the emollients, feels just right. It provides a silky smooth base under lipstick or liner. Since it's less waxy and protective, the product sinks in quickly, as suggested by its designation as a 'lip cream', and sticks down flakes from moderate (though not severe) dryness. If there's extra residue, I rub a q-tip over my lips to exfoliate. It also doubles nicely on the cuticles because of its pliability. There's a faint vanilla-frosting scent. It's not dissimilar from Avene's stick version, but somewhat more economical, not so quickly used up.
N.B. Currently, this is not sold in the U.S. There are, however, several UK stockists (I like echemist) that will ship for free.
INGREDIENTS Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, Isopropyl Palmitate, Hydrogenated Lanolin, Petrolatum, Ozokerite, Mineral Oil (Paraffinum Liquidum), Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Squalane, Beeswax (Cera Alba), Cetyl Esters, Bis Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate 2, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Aluminum Sucrose Octasulfate, Glyceryl Linoleate, Cetearyl EthylHexanoate, Mica, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter) Fruit, Fragrance (Parfum), Glyceryl Linolenate, Isopropyl Myristate, Propylparaben, Stearyl Glycyrrhetinate, Titanium Dioxide, Tocopheryl Acetate

Didn't like it - didn't help with chapped lips. Perhaps even has an opposite effect, not sure.
It's just that the overall feeling is unsatisfactory - this cream just sits on the lips unpleasantly and doesn't do anything for me.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I only saw reviews for the Avene lip balm with cold cream and I know that some reviewers also review the lip cream there but they are two different products so this is only for the lip cream with cold cream. I have dry skin and my lips also suffer from dryness occasionally, the skin around my lips is eczema sensitive and I wanted something new because it's getting colder and I trusted Avene products so I bought this. I wish I had checked the ingredients in the store before buying because it contains Mineral Oil! I mean come on Avene your products target those with sensitive skin and then you put that in your lip cream?? I don't get that, not only does it dry my lips out even more in the long run, my sensitive eczema prone skin reacts badly to this! I get red flaky and itchy skin around my lips everytime I put this on, so off in the trash it goes what a waste! My HG lip balm is Weleda Everon never had any complaints with that one!!

Minute of Meeting held on Tuesday 26th Feb 2008The 2008 Project grants were awarded, with grants going to Catterline Mother and Toddler Group, Catkins Rising 5's, 'Catkins' After School Club, Dunnottar Bodgers Group, Catterline Harbour Trust and Kinneff Hall. The meeting also heard a presentation from Neil Lindsay of Macaulay Enterprises about the proposed wind turbine cluster at Hillhead of Auquhirie, focussing on the work done so far in preparing the Environmental Impact Assessment and the work yet to do. By shall at 26 Apr 2008 - 9:16pm | 1 attachment
Hillhead of Auquhirie Wind TurbinesNeil Lindsay of Macaulay Enterprises Ltd will be attending the next public meeting of the community council (26th Feb - 19:30 in Catterline School) to begin the process of engagement and consultation with CKDCC and the local community as they prepare the Environmental Impact Assessment for the proposed wind farm at Hillhead of Auquhirie (APP/2006/1777). He will be giving a short presentation to outline the project and is keen to discuss what approach they should take to local dialog and any specific concerns that can be addressed. If you have any concerns that you'd like to raise, please either come along to the meeting, write or email us or speak to one of your community councillors. Links By shall at 13 Feb 2008 - 8:35pm | Wind Farms
CKDCC Community GrantsThe Community Council has a small amount of money available to local community groups to help fund projects. To apply for funding, please either contact one of your community councillors or apply by email or in writing to the secretary; The grants will be allocated at the meeting on 26th February, so applications will need to have been received before then. Minute of Meeting held on Tuesday 29 January 2008The newly formed Catkins After School Club met with the community council to outline their plans for setting up an After School Club for Catterline and Kinneff. The lack of a good venue for the club was highlighted and, while Kinneff Hall will be used initially, it is hoped that in the long term more suitable place can be found or perhaps even built. Arguments both in favour and against the proposed extension to the Cloak Caravan Park. Concerns about the increase in traffic and the provision of adequate screening were noted, as were the potential benefits to the local economy of an increase in tourism. The community council is keen that any potential traffic and screening issues should be effectively addressed. Minute of Meeting held on Tuesday 27 November 2007Road safety was in the spotlight this month as we considered the refusal by Aberdeenshire Council to install a barrier on the A92 at Denhead of Catterline, a decision which was met with some disappointment by the Community Council. A detailed report listed the lack of reported accidents, the failure to meet any of the criteria for installing barriers and the significant cost of dealing with installed BT services as factors involved in reaching the conclusion. However, the report seemed to focus on the bridge at Mill of Uras and the section of road running to the corner at Denhead and failed to mention the gorge and plunge pool of the waterfalls at Denhead of Catterline, the top of which is some 5 or 6 metres from the road.

Match Preview: FC Barcelona vs FC Bayern Munich
Let's keep this one short and simple. Everyone knows the task ahead, everyone knows of the difficulty. What remains is one shot, one opportunity to make history. Realistically, statistically, and perhaps even logically Barça will bid adieu to the Champions League on Wednesday. Yet sport is so often filled with magic, the improbable and unreasonableness. Sport is not scripted, the conclusion is not predetermined so there is always room for hope. "Hope is what makes us strong. It is why we are here. It's what we fight with when all else is lost."
