How are shipping charges handled?
If you are returning a product for an exchange, AMS will pay the shipping charges on the exchange order. If you are returning a product for a refund, AMS will refund the full purchase price excluding any shipping charges incurred on the original order. However, you are responsible for the shipping costs on the product that you are returning to AMS. We do not credit any original shipping charges toward the exchange.
If the return is needed as a result of damage, defect, or our mistake, AMS will pay the shipping charges - both to have your item sent back to AMS, and to send you a replacement item. AMS can issue a factory-fresh product in advance (pending approval). These exceptions are at the sole discretion of American Musical Supply and its Returns Department.
How are restocking fees handled?
We rarely charge restocking fees. We can only accept items that are returned without signs of wear and tear and with all of the original contents and packaging.

Packaging includes all inner and outer packaging, complete with the original barcode affixed. Items not returned in the condition described here may be subject to restocking fees (minimum 15% of the purchase price, as determined by our cost of replacing the missing items including a processing fee for this labor-intensive process) or refusal of the return. Larger items and items that we ship directly from our vendors can be subject to a minimum 30% restocking fee. This fee may apply if you refuse delivery or as a result of delivery exceptions, as well as from a typical return. These conditions apply to all returns regardless of the reason for the return. A restocking fee will be charged for any defective item that is returned in damaged condition.
How long does it take to receive a refund?
Once our warehouse receives the returned merchandise, the return is typically processed within 3 to 5 business days (Monday through Friday). Processing time may vary depending on daily return volume. Processing time may exceed 5 business days during January (typically our busiest month) and other times during the year when we are exceptionally busy.

Q: With winter coming, should I blanket my horse?
A: Blanketing a horse is necessary to reduce the effects of cold or inclement weather when:
- there is no shelter available during turnout periods and the temperatures or wind chill is below 5°F;
- there is a chance the horse will become wet (i.e. rain, ice, or freezing rain);
- the horse has had its winter coat clipped;
- the horse is very young or very old;
- the horse has not been acclimated to the cold (i.e. relocated from a southern climate); and
- the horse has a body condition score of 3 or less.
Keep in mind a horse will continue to develop a natural winter coat until late December; and blanketing before late December will decrease a horse's natural winter coat. Horses, given the opportunity to acclimate to cold temperature, often prefer and are better off outdoors.
By Marcia Hathaway, PhD, and Krishona Martinson, PhD, University of Minnesota

Anyone know how to microwave loose popcorn kernels? I've read about using a brown paper bag, but there's a risk of it catching fire. Can I use a covered glass casserole dish instead? And can I do it without using any oil?

Wifredo A. Ferrer, United States Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, Jose A. Gonzalez, Special Agent in Charge, Internal Revenue Service, Criminal Investigation Division (IRS-CID), and Michael K. Fithen, Special Agent in Charge, United States Secret Service, Miami Field Office, announced today's sentencing of defendant Jose Arnaldo Rosario, of Miami-Dade County. U.S. District Judge Jose A. Martinez sentenced Rosario to 46 months in prison, to be followed by 3 years of supervised release.
On July 1, 2011, Rosario pled guilty to a one count Criminal Information, charging him with conspiracy to commit money laundering and wire fraud, in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 371. According to the Information and statements made during the plea hearing, from at least November 2005 to January 1, 2007, Rosario and his coconspirators purchased two units at 1331 Brickell Bay Drive, using bank loans they obtained through fraud, including the submission of false financial information, inflated property values, and straw buyers, among other misrepresentations.
According to court documents, Rosario and his coconspirators used the mortgage loan proceeds to purchase the properties, using little or no money of their own. Thereafter, the defendants distributed among themselves the difference between the inflated property value and the true value of the property. For about one year, to further the scheme and avoid detection, Rosario made monthly payments on the loan. Ultimately, Rosario stopped making payments and allowed the properties to go into foreclosure. At his plea hearing, Rosario acknowledged that the loss resulting from his actions was approximately $2.51 million.
Mr. Ferrer commended the investigative efforts of the Internal Revenue Service, Criminal Investigation Division and the Secret Service. This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Jerrob Duffy.

Ann Sothern, Linda Darnell, Jeanne Crain, A Letter to Three Wives
Linda Darnell, the gorgeous leading lady of numerous 20th Century Fox productions of the '40s, is Turner Classic Movies' "Summer Under the Stars" player this Saturday, August 27. TCM, which has leased titles from the Fox library, is showing 14 Linda Darnell movies, including no less than 9 TCM premieres. [Linda Darnell Movie Schedule.]
Right now, TCM is showing writer-director Joseph L. Mankiewicz's A Letter to Three Wives (1949), winner of Academy Awards for Best Direction and Best Screenplay. This curious comedy-drama about a husband who leaves his wife for another woman – but whose husband? Linda Darnell's, Jeanne Crain's, or Ann Sothern's? – also earned Mankiewicz the very first Directors Guild of America Award and a Writers Guild Award (which Mankiewicz shared with Vera Caspary) for the Best Written American Comedy. The husbands in question are Kirk Douglas, Paul Douglas, and Jeffrey Lynn.
Next in line is Walter Lang's Star Dust (1940), one of the many give-a-girl-a-Hollywood-break movies of that period. Darnell, supposedly playing a role based on her own experiences in Hollywood, is the young actress wannabe. Fox hunk John Payne is the contract player who attempts to help her out. See if you can spot future Warner Bros. star Joan Leslie in a bit role; coincidentally, Leslie had her own "Hollywood" movie that same year, the short Alice in Movieland, and would play another similar role in the all-star extravaganza Thank Your Lucky Stars (1943) at Warners.
I've never watched John Brahm's Hangover Square (1945), but it does sound intriguing: "A composer who can't control his creative temperament turns to murder," as per the TCM synopsis. Laird Cregar, of The Lodger fame, is the "creative" composer. By the time Hangover Square was released, Cregar was already dead. The seriously overweight 31-year-old actor went on a crash died and suffered a fatal heart attack in December 1944.
Mankiewicz's No Way Out (1950) is an interesting, well-intentioned melodrama about ethnic relations, with Richard Widmark as a racist gangster in need of medical care. Who shows up to try to help him out? Sidney Poitier. I'd have liked this one better had the film featured, say, Paul Robeson or Ethel Waters or Hattie McDaniel or Louise Beavers or anyone less self-consciously upstanding than Poitier in the role. Darnell capably plays the role of a jaded woman quite unlike her sweet young things of her early Fox days. No Way Out, in fact, is proof that the more mature Darnell got, the more beautiful and more interesting she became.
Edmund Goulding's Everybody Does It (1949) is a misfire for all concerned. Goulding, who had done superior dramatic work elsewhere (e.g., The Old Maid, The Great Lie) seems at a loss with the light comedy found in Nunnally Johnson's screenplay. Paul Douglas was never exactly a likable performer, and you must really like him to enjoy this tale of a businessman who discovers he has a talent for opera singing. Darnell has a subordinate role as the woman who encourages Douglas to literally give voice to his talent. Celeste Holm, the narrator in A Letter to Three Wives, is Douglas' befuddled opera-singer wannabe wife.
I haven't watched Day-Time Wife, the first pairing of Linda Darnell and Tyrone Power. Warren William co-stars in this tale about a wife who, after discovering that her husband has been cheating on her, starts working for his business rival. Power and Darnell would be reunited that same year in Brigham Year and The Mark of Zorro, and the following year in Blood and Sand.
Linda Darnell died at the age of 41 on April 10, 1965. She had been watching Star Dust when the house she was in caught fire. Darnell died from burns that covered 90 percent of her body.

SI staff serving in the International Office or on the field in Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Fiji, Guatemala and Nicaragua are called to bring students and the poor together cross-culturally to encounter God, share the Good News, disciple and serve others in occupational ministries.
If you want to use your career or academic pursuits to see students and the poor transformed into the likeness of Christ and discover their true calling, please consider applying to join our staff. Before you apply, you should review the following:
If you are interested in an intern position, please contact us first to begin your application.
Once you have decided that you are interested, complete the Staff Inquiry Pre-Application here:
After you have submitted the pre-Application, the Human Resources Department will contact you to determine if there are any staff opportunities that might be a fit.
Continue to pray about whether the Lord is leading you to work with our ministry.
Staff Frequently Asked Questions
We work with you to develop a budget to meet your personal financial needs. All financial gifts are tax deductible. One hundred percent of the money you raise goes directly to your support. We update a password-protected page to inform you of your donors and donations while you are on the field. For a single North American staff, the budget usually falls between $1,200 and $1,500 a month. Out-going costs usually come to about $9,000. This includes airfare for an interview, training, language placement, and to the field assignment, costs for language studies, purchasing a vehicle in country, pre-field training, and personal items.
Yes! Many of our staff are beginners in Spanish when they are accepted to minister with us. Once you have been accepted you will give yourself a language assessment. This will help your supervisor to develop a language-learning plan with you. We have worked with a variety of language schools in both Costa Rica and Guatemala. Depending on your level of Spanish to begin with, and how easily you learn the language, you may be studying from three to nine months to get to the necessary proficiency. You must be a high-intermediate before you can begin working on the field.
Ministering cross-culturally can be challenging even for the most experienced. We offer a variety of training opportunities to provide a foundation for your mission work. You will read and write response papers to four books covering the topics of youth ministry, spiritual growth, transformational development, and the history and culture of the country you will be working in. You will also attend a three-week training in Colorado at Missions Training International (MTI). After arriving to the field, you will have an orientation to the ministry and receive on-going training on a variety of topics.
You will fly to the country that you are applying to work in to meet with the leadership team and other staff for about a three-day interview. During this time you will have the opportunity to ask questions and learn more about your potential future ministry. The leadership team will also facilitate a formal interview during one of the days. You will pay for the airfare during the interview, and Students International will host you during your time in country.
This depends on many factors such as the time it takes to meet your budget goals, completing your pre-field training, and how much language training is needed. Typically it ranges from four to twelve months after you have been accepted.
Staff meets regularly for corporate times of worship and Bible study. Each staff member will also be attending a local church. In addition, each staff member will have an SI supervisor to provide accountability and guidance. During your initial six months on the field you will be considered a 'staff in training' and will meet often with your supervisor to help you with the transition of living in a new country, working in a new area of ministry, and developing new relationships. You will also have opportunities to cultivate a strong financial and prayer support base.

"My Faith Pulled Me Through"
It took years. It almost broke her heart. Here, for the first time, Mariska Hargitay shares the tender story of how she adopted her two precious new kids
By Sheila Weller
Special Offers
Another Chance
Not long after that turn of events, Hargitay and Hermann's lawyer and social worker located another woman who was expecting a baby; after initial inquiries, even these two seasoned professionals couldn't hide their enthusiasm. "They said, 'This woman's kind of great,' " Hargitay recalls. And so, a little over a year ago, she and Hermann made a phone call to this prospective birth mother. "We were blown away," Hargitay says. "She was very powerful, soulful, and thoughtful." When the couple met her, "the whole thing was kind of...storybook. It was almost too good to be true." Indeed, after having abruptly lost the last baby, they worried that their hearts would be broken again. But this woman set them at ease: "She said, 'I know this is right. You are this baby's mother.' " Did Hargitay cry when she heard that reassurance? "Yes!" she says, with a jubilant laugh.
The woman was African-American, but the fact that her baby would be adopted by a white couple didn't bother her. Race was also "a nonissue" to Hargitay and Hermann. In fact, Hargitay says, "we were excited to have a multiracial family, because that's what the world is, and we want our family to reflect a realistic microcosm of the world."
Hargitay and Hermann wanted a girl, but they were so over the moon about the birth mother, it was fine that she was having a boy or at least that was what the medical report had seemed to make clear. Then came the call from their lawyer, which Hargitay clearly remembers: " 'Are you sitting down?' she asked. 'Yes,' I said. 'There was a mistake. It's a baby girl she's having!' "
Hargitay and Hermann took the hopeful step of choosing a name for their soon-to-be daughter. "We were thinking of Maya first," she recalls. "We loved the name. And we wanted her to have the same initials as me. But then I thought, No; she needs to have the same initials as her brother. So we added the 'A,' and we thought: Amaya! So feminine! It just rolls off the tongue." Besides, after doing a bit of research, the couple found that in various languages "Amaya means 'princess,' it means 'warrior,' and it means 'night rain.' "
The birth mother agreed that Hargitay not only would be in the delivery room, but also would help deliver the baby. "Glove up!" the doctor ordered Hargitay as she stood expectantly at the edge of the table, near the stirrups. So she did, and "I basically pulled Amaya out," she says. "Peter and I held her, and then the birth mother and I hugged for a long time. That was profound. That was one of the most meaningful moments I've ever had in my life."
As if on cue, to provide a welcome intermission from the emotional wallop of the story his mother is telling, sprite-like August enters the room. "Hi, little man," Hargitay says. "Daddy said I can't come in," he says. "Can I?" He flops on the chaise by the window, theatrically crosses his hands over his little chest, strums his fingers, and impishly feigns massive disinterest. "I won't say anything...I won't listen," he says, then eventually exits after some bribing (Gummi Bears), extra chitchat with Mom, and tickling. Hargitay, smiling and shaking her head, remarks, "Cutest kid on the planet, right?"
Good Things Come in Pairs
With newborn Amaya at home to join August, Hargitay and Hermann were utterly content. "Everything was so dreamy," she says. Yes, maybe in a year and a half they would try to adopt again, but not now. Of course not; their hands were happily full. Still, when the social worker visited to do their post-placement follow-up, the couple had an idea: Why not get their next home study over with in the same sitting? (One usually cannot initiate a new adoption without a new home study.) Hargitay muses about the chain of events set in motion by this serendipity: "I think God runs the show. Completely. Life proves it every day: He runs the show." Hargitay was raised Catholic, and Hermann was also raised Christian; their first significant date was in his church. "I think God is very much in us. Faith is a huge part of our life. And I think everything happens for a reason," she says.
Hargitay and Hermann's lives were rocked that September, when they received tragic, shocking news that a dear friend had suddenly died. "He was somebody we deeply loved who affected our lives in a very beautiful way," she says, close to tears. "And [his death] happened too soon and unexpectedly." The man's name was Andrew. Just when Hargitay and Hermann were struggling with this loss that very week their lawyer called to see how everything was going with Amaya. And then the lawyer said something else: There was another baby, a boy, two months premature and very fragile. He was being released from the neonatal intensive care unit in a hospital in another state, and he was adoptable. The lawyer "knew that we were done" adopting for the moment, Hargitay says, but still she asked, "Are you interested?"
"I don't really know what to say about it, other than it was a no-brainer. Peter and I both thought, Let's do it! I'm in!" she says. "It was like...a miracle. And I don't use that word lightly. I've never made a bigger decision so quickly. The whole thing happened in a total of two days."
Hargitay and Hermann raced to meet their baby boy, who had been released from the hospital. They met the birth mother ("She was awesome. An incredible woman. She's been through a lot"), and then they took the tiny, delicate infant home.
The couple named him after their lost friend Andrew. Hargitay marvels at the difference between the two adoptions: "I mean, Amaya was something we pursued. We went down there; we paid our dues," she notes. "And then we get this...this...craaazy call! I mean, who would call a family that had just adopted a baby and say, 'A child was born'? Our incredible lawyer, that's who!"
Those first months were "touch and go it was scary," Hargitay says. Though she and Hermann have a nanny to help with the other two children, Andrew has respiratory and reflux issues, so a private nurse lives with the family to tend to his medical needs. There have been times when he has stopped breathing for a terrifying interval. Several times, Hargitay and Hermann have rushed off the sets and stages of their respective shows; one time an ambulance was already in front of the apartment when they frantically arrived, and they rode with their baby to the hospital. "It's a lot, but that's what you do," she says. "That's life. You've gotta go with it. The highs are high, and the lows are low." Is she sleeping less? "Yes, definitely!" she admits. "But sometimes it's not the babies who get me up in the middle of the night it's August!"

Picture this: You excitedly tell your friends you're heading to China for the Olympics, and they start lecturing you about Darfur, human rights, and the Dalai Lama. "But what about Shanghai, and the terra cotta warriors, and all those cool new stadiums?" Stony silence. There goes your summer vacation. To some people, boycotting the Gamesand China as a wholeis a way of protesting its government's policies. But does that mean those who visit condone repressionand even help underwrite it? Must travelers body-swerve countries with flagrant human-rights abuses altogether? "The question isn't really whether to go, but what kind of tourism is responsible," says Thant Myint-U, a Burmese historian who believes travel, particularly by citizens of democratic countries, is crucial to the development of civil societies. Other observers disagree, quite adamantly. Here's our list of some of the world's most scenic and fascinating countriesthat also happen to be among the most repressive. We weigh the pros and cons, but only you can decide whether to buy the ticket.

there will be no gantz next week , due a double issue
there will be no gantz next week , due a double issue
get ch 241 at:
I doubt that.Bare in mind what happens when you don't complete the mission: Gantz wipes your points the first time and kills your ass if you do it two times in a row.
You are trying to generalize on kurono case.
He was thinking if I hide, I'll be safe.
So somehow Gantz found a solution to motivate him.
Consider the panda and dog case... Did gantz killed them for not taking any points?
I don't think Gantz is too personally involved to an individual; what he does is a standard procedure. If you failed to kill all the aliens in a mission, you're taken all your points. Now, this is what I believe:
You (in this case it's just one person, but it could've been the whole team) already proved to be unefficient. If you don't get at least 15 points, you (or the whole team) is removed. Since Kurono was alone on the Chibi Alien mission, the 15 point rule only applies to him. In Rice's case, Nishi had been getting points throughout a year, and the missions I suppose they were finished, so no removing action was taken.
Your way off ESBY you should go and read the manga before spouting.
Gantz punished kurono for not completing the mission. Unless your trying to tell me that those thirty odd midgets he slew were not worth any points.
What bothers me about your mistake is that Oku made it painstaking clear what the terms were in the dino mission where kurono got more than 15 points, which was an additional punishment for failure in the last minute, and then realised that he had to kill the boss otherwise those points and his life would be wiped too.
Just to state it clearly for people to retarded to read a comic:
From what we have seen when your team fails a mission
1. your points are wiped
2. your team needs to complete the next mission
3. you personally may need to gather at least 15 points
Right. The question becomes whether mission success means the targets died, or whether it means specifically that your team killed the targets (or the boss, depending). If it's the first, all that the teams would be fighting for is points—which isn't trivial, given that they want some people back alive pretty badly and that's damned expensive.
It's only the second alternative, or the grouping of the other team under the "targets" heading, that would result in inevitable direct conflict—though killing the other team to keep them from stealing points is also a valid approach. I don't see the Tokyo team doing it, though.
Failure: when your best just isn't good enough.

yay thanks dude

With much cheaper models available, and being only £50 less than some of its rivals, we're hoping to see a decent level of performance.
Things don't get off to the best of starts when you discover there are no contrast or sharpness settings – only the colours and screen brightness can be adjusted. The screen itself is a 10in LCD that can be swivelled through 180 degrees and also folded down into a portable tablet. Build is solid enough, while the design is clear and efficient, if far from exciting.
The Mustek MP100 allows you to plug in your pictures, TV and more In terms of spec, it scores well. There's an MMC/SD card-reader, composite, S-Video and digital coaxial outputs, two headphone jacks, a USB input and support for most DVD discs and DivX and MP3 files. The three-hour battery life is okay, if nothing special.
Watching Lucky Number Slevin, the colour balance could be better. Dark black scenes are too gloomy, while blocks of black lack definition. By contrast, bright colours are a little too overblown. Detail isn't a strong point in general for the MP100.However, it's a stable, sharp picture, with no obvious problems with motion, noise or flickering. Sound quality is fine, too.
You can buy a better picture, but if you're after a versatile portable on a budget, the MP100's worth a look.

It's perfect for people with bone loss as well as gum recession. Half the mouth can be done in one visit, as many teeth on one side as you need. The cost is comparable to regular gum graft procedures and there is no pain at all. It is definitely worth looking into!

A Guide to Making Your Facebook Friend's List Private
Many of us love to watch our number of Facebook "friends" list grow and grow. Showing off a few dozen, hundred, or thousands of friendships does create a certain sense of popularity and satisfaction. However, that slight bit of popularity can lead to problems for both you and your various friends. Unless your Facebook friendship list is made private, it is possible for marketers to easily see your friend list when they type your name into the Facebook search box. Any unwanted guests can record their names and contact them based on the assumption that you and your friends share similar interests. This can create a wealth of unwanted contact through private messages and strange friend requests for both you and your friends. Whatever your reasons may be–socially acceptable or otherwise–it is a great rule to keep your friend list private–and to send those marketers packing that way they cannot use a facebook hack to compromise your profile.
Before panicking and deleting all your questionable friends to keep them private, take a breath: There are two easy and simple steps to making sure those advertisers or future significant others will never be able to personally browse through your dark past. First, you must log into your Facebook account. After logging in, click the "Settings" link to the right of your name in the upper toolbar. Then select the link entitled "manage" below the "Privacy" heading. Select the "Profile" link and scroll down to the "Friends" section of the following page. Select the option in the drop-down menu that says "customize" [See 1 Below]. This option box will allow you to change who can see your friends list from your official profile page. Be sure to uncheck the box that says "Everyone on Facebook" [2]. Then, choose the radio button that says "Only Friends" [3]. Then, from the drop-down menu below the Networks heading, select "None of My Networks" [4]. This last option will ensure that people who are also listed in your network (whether it is a location-based, work, or school network) cannot see your friend list. Basically, unless you add your boss as a friend, when he goes to your profile he won't be able to see that his secretary, who is also in your network, is on your Facebook list.[ad#long-1]
Additionally, from this same options box, you can make sure that your new fiancee won't be able to scroll through all the profile pictures of your ex-girlfriends that you "forgot" to delete (or that your husband will never see all those bodybuilders you met at the gym…or that your mom will never know how many punk motorcycle kids are your Facebook friends). By typing in the name of the individual you'd like to shield your friend list from in the "Except These People" box [5], you can easily ensure that the particular person will never see your Facebook friend list and that those friendships you may or may not want to share just yet will be private.
Okay, now select "Okay" and be sure to save your changes before navigating away from this page.
Alright! Now there's one final step to shielding your poor innocent friends from the eyes of the public and the information collectors. After you have saved your friend settings, click the "Settings" link at the top of your Facebook page again and choose "Privacy." From this page, click "Search." To keep your friend list out of your search result page, uncheck the "My friend list" from below the second heading, "Search Result Content." This will prevent anyone who is not able to see your profile page from being able to copy down your friends' names and any other available information.
With that, we have completed the process of making friendship lists private. Now make sure you know that just because your friend list is private to the general public, anyone who is your friend and who is not specifically blocked will still be able to see your friend list. The only way to keep a friend from seeing your friend list is to add them to the "Except These People" box on the profile privacy page. Congratulate yourself for making your friend list private–now both you and the friends you have just hidden will be one step closer to keeping any pests and wandering eyes away. Be sure to refer them to this article so that you and their loved ones will not be available to the public eye when they get searched.

Our book, Natural Surface Trails by Design: The Physical and Human Design Essentials of Sustainable, Enjoyable Trails, presents the keys to a comprehensive trail development process. The series addresses the longstanding need for a simple yet profoundly powerful trail design system that anyone can use to design and develop sustainable and enjoyable natural surface trails for any trail type and use. |
Natureshape LLC provides consulting services in: Trail design Design of trail systems, individual trails, trail structures, bridges, boardwalks, signs, interpretive features, construction management, and more for any trail type, use (hiking, horse, biking, wheelchair, ATV, motorcycle, ORV), or location. We work as closely with the client, site, and visitors as possible, focusing on maximizing the trail experience while minimizing the budget. Our design method and philosophy. Trail evaluation Evaluations, advice, and recommendations for existing and proposed trails. Low-cost natural surface trail formation We've developed effective ways to "construct" carefully designed and flagged natural surface trails largely through visitor use. Where applicable, this environmentally "green" method greatly reduces or eliminates trail excavation and construction cost, minimizes or eliminates site disturbance outside the immediate trail tread itself, increases sustainability, improves ability to maintain outslope (tread pitch), increases public awareness and stewardship by involving the public in trailbuilding, and produces a naturalistic tread no wider than necessary and suited inch-by-inch to visitors' tread requirements. After 1-3 years (or sooner for busy trails), the final trail tread is both more sustainable and more naturalistic than a constructed tread. Custom publications Custom guides and specifications, training programs, marketing materials, etc. Commissioned publications can range from short guides to entire books in grayscale or color. We can also provide all publication design, desktop publishing, illustration, and photo services, plus arrange for printing (see below). Training for all skill levels Custom indoor and/or outdoor workshops and trainings, conference presentations, crew leader training, etc. Uniquely, both novices and experienced professionals can learn from our training methods and trail development process at the same time. Our trail photo collection provides a rich source of visual examples for trainings, enabling us to maximize your time in indoor settings. We also have prepared and scheduled workshops that we can present in your location at a very reasonable cost (perfect for trail conferences and agency trainings). Conference presentations We can make conference presentations on a wide variety of trail-related topics. If you have something in mind, please contact us. Working with volunteers Years of experience working with and training volunteers in all capacities, including training volunteer crew leaders, leading volunteer crews, and managing volunteer projects. We're very good at making volunteers feel integral to the process. Volunteers are attracted to our trail development process. Trail construction Although we would rather design trails and/or teach you to shape them yourself, we are very good at performing and demonstrating trail construction for trainings and some small projects. Stonework (retaining walls, risers, steps, etc.) is one of our favorites. We can refer you to those who construct larger projects. Book design Award-winning book design including full layout, design, photo scanning and enhancement, and desktop publishing capabilities for book interiors and covers. Under the name Cimarron Design, we've been designing books for all types of publishers since 1990. Graphic design Brochures, signs, maps, marketing materials, ads, newsletters, etc. We favor a clean, classic approach to graphic design. (Graphic design and trail design do have a lot in common: both are about getting people to enjoy, learn from, and absorb the tone of a page/trail as they travel through it.) Website design Basic websites (we design and maintain this site and the Professional Trailbuilders Association website, trailbuilders.org), E-commerce and shopping cart setup. Conference registration Design, set up, and process conference registration using combinations of web-based shopping carts and mail-in forms, including credit card processing and preparation of online and paper conference marketing materials (programs, brochures, forms, etc.) Publishing We can publish trail "how-to" books for any author, including editing, content guidance, book design, illustrations, photographs, layout, printing, and distribution. Like any reputable publisher, however, we will only choose to publish highly informative and useful books. If you have a trail book in mind or would like to see a book on a particular subject, we'd like to hear from you. Trail photography For training, education, and consulting, we maintain a growing collection of 13,000+ trail photos (slides) in over 100 categories. If you're looking for a photo of a particular trail structure or technique, chances are we have it. For digital images, we can scan slides at high-resolution in house to produce higher-quality images than handheld digital cameras. In addition, we use our photography capabilities in trail design and other projects. For more information, please contact us. |

Sheri-D Wilson's Poetry and QR Codes
"Technology has finally caught up with Calgary poet Sheri-D Wilson's fertile mind, and the brainchild is a "crazy interactive opus" entitled Goddess: Gone Fishing for a Map of the Universe, a collection of verse that incorporates QR codes into the text. The pixelated black-and-white squares carrying embedded hyperlinks activated through mobile phones are by now a familiar tool of advertising, but here the cryptic boxes serve a grander, more ambitious (and fun) purpose — to lift readers off the page." – ffwd weekly
Sheri-D Wilson's recent poetry book uses QR codes and even while we articulate how it works as a whole, she continues to develop the story. The codes lead to ever-changing content – more and different audio, video, pictures, poems, comments. You can even co-create poetry with the Mama of Dada once you tap in to the codes.
As Sheri-D explained to a Chatelaine writer in a recent article called 'Unleash the Power of Your Mind,' "I'd been reading about the codes in a technology magazine, and it hit me: I could change the parameters of my book," she says. "Instead of being static, it could be a framework for performance – the reader actually gets to 'go fishing.'"
Fishing for a map of the universe – Sheri-D style – is about discovering a map of the self, our place in it and how we can create change. Along the journey, one discovers places of collective wisdom and the power of the feminine divine.
Sheri-D Wilson has published 8 collections of poetry. Goddess Gone Fishing for a Map of the Universe (Frontenac House) is the most recent. It was launched in March, 2012. One of her earlier collections published by Frontenac House, Re:Zoom, won the 2006 Stephan G. Stephansson Award for Poetry, and was shortlisted for the CanLit Award. In 2011 she edited The Spoken Word Workbook: inspiration from poets who teach (CSWS/BCP), which launched its interactive website on February 15 of this year.
Sheri-D has also produced two Spoken Word CDs and four award-winning VideoPoems, all produced for BravoFACT. She is a regular on CBC & CKUA radio, and has performed around the world, from Canada and the USA to Africa and Europe. This spring she performed in London and Barcelona.
Sheri-D has been the Artistic Director/Producer of the Calgary Spoken Word Festival since 2003, she organized SWAN (Spoken Word Arts Network) in 2005 & 2007, produced the 2008 National Slam of Canada in Calgary, and from 2007 – 2011 was the Program Director of the Spoken Word Program at Banff Centre. She has served on many committees for the League of Canadian Poets, and was on National Council for the Writers Union of Canada. In 2006 The National Slam presented her with the Poet of Honour Award. Since then, Sheri-D produced and hosted the Calgary Monthly Slam, until The Ink Spot Collective took over the reins in January 2012. Sheri-D organizes and hosts the Youth Slam at the Calgary Library the second Saturday of every month.

Even under the best of circumstances, ArtServe is a vaguely inhospitable venue. It's housed in a branch of the Broward County Library, with all the traffic such a location entails, and the display space is a sort of fishbowl in the middle of the building, separated by glass from offices on one side, the library on another, and busy Sunrise Boulevard on another. At times the noise level reaches a maddening peak, with the automatic doors loudly clanging open and shut and high heels clicking across the tiled floor.
In these surroundings, an art gallery seems an afterthought, a classy tenant to occupy otherwise empty space. Who cares if an exhibition is set amid clutter that clashes with the art? Apparently not ArtServe. In this case one culprit is a monstrosity consisting mainly of a pile of colorful open umbrellas on the right as you enter the gallery area, a visually noisy distraction from the show. (I couldn't bring myself to get close enough to find out the purpose of the display.)
The first clue that something is seriously amiss, however, lies just inside those rackety sliding doors, in a sort of lobby-atrium where 16 pieces from the show are on display. Not one sign announces that this is the beginning of the exhibition that continues farther into the building, nothing to prepare us for what's to come. All but one of the pieces are labeled with title, artist's name, and medium but without any context the information is meaningless, and the art comes across as mere window dressing.
If you can find it among the piles of literature at the information desk, the exhibition brochure is slightly more helpful, although not much more. It informs us that the New River Arts & Crafts Association is a "Professional Fine Artists Cooperative" and "A Florida based tax-exempt 501(c)(3) corporation," and it lists the organization's members, directors, and advisors. One of the six panels of this surprisingly uninspired brochure is devoted to -- God help us -- the group's mission statement. The remaining two panels feature sample reproductions of the artists' work, each not much bigger than a postage stamp. To add insult to injury, five of the fourteen artworks are inaccurately identified.
As for the exhibition itself, it's a highly mixed bag, with each of the fourteen artists represented by four to six works. Included are paintings, sculptures, photographs, and computer-generated imagery.
The digital prints of Dennis Emma are the show's most questionable selections. Two of them -- Moonlight Becomes Her and Center of Her Universe -- are little more than the sort of soft-core porn you might see illustrating a story in Playboy or Penthouse, with computer-perfect babes standing in glistening water, arms outstretched. Eye of the Beholder is moderately more interesting, although its two watery figures composed entirely of eyeballs are essentially just a clever visual pun. Emma's biographical note on the wall declares, "Unlike most of us, Dennis didn't know that he was an artist until he became enchanted with what he could do with 3-D computer graphics." Oh, really?
Most of the paintings and sculptures in the exhibition are also easily dismissed, unfortunately. Among the oils only Rachel Zmurchak's Water Lilies is notable, mainly for the Everglades twist it applies to a subject most famously associated with Monet. And the canvases of the Brazilian-born Naza, now based in Boca Raton, treat familiar material with a fascinating technique. With Florida Panther, Toucan II, and Portrait of Filizola's Children, we seem to be looking at the subjects through veils of distortion. The images are made up of overlapping squares and rectangles, and their surfaces have a tantalizing texture, as if Naza had applied tissue-thin layers of paper to the canvas, then painted over them to create a topography of creases and wrinkles.
Of the two dozen watercolors in the show, most are landscapes that are competently executed but also completely generic, despite titles that try to anchor them to particular places. For instance, Thomas Sullivan's Sunday on South Beach has a lovely feel for a side of that trendy locale that we rarely see, but his other pieces, like those of Peg McShea and Ted Grier, are flat and uninvolving.
The standout watercolorist here is Robert Gross, who, as exhibition curator, had the good sense to give four of his five pieces an enviable display space. The medium-size horizontal paintings entitled McNab, Looking South From Imagination Farm, Last Light, and Dusk are similar in both subject matter and execution. They're mounted on three panels that form a small alcove, and in their isolation they complement one another beautifully. (Too bad the artist's fifth piece, Everglades West, is out in the entry space and not among his others, where it belongs.)

The Mulford Health Science Library has a small collection of older print indexes to supplement our online databases. Most notably, we have Index Medicus (the print version of MEDLINE) and its many forerunners back to 1880. These are particularly useful when trying to track down very old articles.
A lounge area is located near the print indexes; it is slightly enclosed, making it a good choice for quiet, small-group study.

Apprenticeship Programs
An apprentice is someone who learns a skilled trade on the job under the direction of more experienced workers. Apprentices are employees and earn a salary while they learn a skilled trade. They also complete classroom instruction offered at a community college as a part of their training. The duties of an apprentice become more complex as his / her skills improve. Upon successful completion of the trade requirements, apprentices earn a Certificate of Apprenticeship or a Certificate of Qualification ("ticket") that allows them to work on their own at a higher rate of pay. Most apprenticeships last two to five years, with an average of 85% of the apprentice's time spent in the workplace.
The Benefits of Apprenticeships
- Train to meet the needs of new and emerging trades and occupations.
- Study curriculum and participate in training that are designed and supported by industry.
- Experience integrated hands-on training and enhanced "in-class" curriculum.
- Earn while you learn; increase your earning power as you progress.
- Enjoy a career that is motivating and provides opportunities for continued education.
- Become the solution to a forecasted critical shortage of skilled trades' people throughout the province.
Becoming an apprentice can be an important first step to learning new skills and building a rewarding career. Jobs in the skilled trades pay well, are interesting and challenging, and are in high demand in many industries. The first step is to find an employer who is willing to take you on as an apprentice. You can do this by applying directly to an employer or a joint apprenticeship council at a union office. Once you have found an employer, you will register with the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities (MTCU) as an apprentice. An apprenticeship is a partnership between you as the apprentice, a sponsor/employer and the province of Ontario (ministry). The Province of Ontario will pay for approximately 85% of the tuition for the in-school training component while the apprentice is responsible to pay the balance of tuition fees.

Change to Math Competency Requirement
Effective Winter Term 2011, the General Education requirement for Math Competency (MC) has changed.
WSU will now accept transfer courses to meet math competency. Courses must be equivalent to MAT 1000 or higher and have a grade of C or higher. Transfer courses equal to MAT 1XXX, MAT 1110, MAT 1120, and MAT 1500 (or higher) in the Equivalency Tables at transfercredit.wayne.edu will be accepted, providing they were completed with a grade of C or better (a C- will not satisfy requirement). Previously transferred courses are now accepted. If you took a Math class at another institution you can check your STARS Degree Audit on Pipeline to see whether your previous course now meets Math Competency.
A second change is that courses completed at WSU in fall 2011 or later must have a grade of C or higher to meet the math competency.

UFOs/ ET Contact
In the first half, documentary filmmaker James Fox talked about his involvement in the new National Geographic Channel series Chasing UFOs. The first episode is centered on Texas, and features detailed information on the 2008 Stephenville UFO case. Noted alien abductee Travis Walton also participated in the discussion. In the latter half, student of the late Dr. John Mack, Thomas Streicher talked about his study of people who have had "extra-planetary experiences" or XPE.

British Isles.
The most prominent British films of 2005 were heterogeneous. Woody Allen chose to make a British variant of Theodore Dreiser's An American Tragedy (unacknowledged) in Match Point. Michael Caton-Jones's Shooting Dogs was a deeply felt impression of the Rwandan genocide tragedy seen through the eyes of two Europeans. Stephen Frears's Mrs. Henderson Presents was slight but engaging, the true story of a rich widow who created the Windmill nudie shows as a lucrative hobby. Lexi Alexander's Hooligans took an unsparing look at the gang culture of English football hooliganism. Actor Richard E. Grant's directorial debut, Wah-Wah, was a partly autobiographical story of a boy growing up in the narrow and overheated white colonial society of the last days of British Africa. The White Countess—the final Merchant Ivory production (Ismail Merchant died before its release—see Obituaries)—was directed by Ivory from a script by Kazuo Ishiguro about the liaison of a blind American and a White Russian noblewoman who is reduced to poverty and prostitution after the 1917 Revolution.
The British predilection for literary adaptation was vindicated by Joe Wright's bright, original, and thoughtful rendering of Pride & Prejudice. Michael Hardy's script for Michael Winterbottom's Tristram Shandy: A Cock and Bull Story ingeniously made Laurence Sterne's unmanageable digressive novel a film within a film, with the actors moving in and out of their contemporary and 18th-century roles.
The best comedy productions were Brian W. Cook's Colour Me Kubrick, the true story of a con man who masqueraded as director Stanley Kubrick in the 1990s, and Julian Jarrold's Kinky Boots, a characteristic English realist–outrageous situation comedy about a shoe factory that is saved when it launches a line of kinky boots for transvestites. Nanny McPhee, directed by Kirk Jones, was scripted by Emma Thompson, who also played the main role of a magical nanny who tames a large rambunctious family.
Some excellent work came from low-budget independent production, including Kolton Lee's Cherps, a black Alfie for 21st-century Britain, and Jason Ford's New Town Original, which took a fresh and lively view of the life of a young office worker.
Canada, Australia, and New Zealand
Canadian director Atom Egoyan followed a disappointing melodrama, Where the Truth Lies, with his production of Ruba Nadda's Sabah (also called Coldwater), a more rewarding story of a Syrian Canadian woman invigilated by her strict Muslim family but defiantly in love with a Canadian carpenter. One of the most ambitious recent Canadian productions, Jean Beaudin's Nouvelle-France (2004), was a historical melodrama set at the time that France lost Canada to Great Britain. Claude Gagnon's Kamataki was a subtle character drama about a troubled young man who finds calm and maturity working in a Japanese pottery. Jeremy Peter Allen's Manners of Dying (2004) imagined different variations of the reactions of a man suffering his final hours and minutes of awaiting execution. After long production difficulties Toronto-based Deepa Mehta completed the third film in her trilogy (after Fire [1996] and Earth [1998]); Water was a forceful and moving exposé of the plight of widows ostracized by strict Hindu observance.
The most notable Australian production of the year was the former animator Sarah Watt's Look Both Ways, a well-observed and well-structured study of a group of characters all confronted by sudden catastrophe. In New Zealand, Roger Donaldson directed The World's Fastest Indian, based on the true story of Burt Munro (played by Anthony Hopkins), who at age 72 set out to break the world's motorcycle record—an undertaking that Donaldson chronicled in a 1972 documentary.

so fucking stressed. basically had 20 hour days of work with 3 hours of sleep each for three days already. student elections, tests, tests, moot, test, campaigning, campaigning, campaigning. No I didn't just get 3 hours of sleep by choice or because I am procrastinating. I am literally doing something for twenty hours until I actually physically can't sit/stand anymore. On my fourth cup of coffee at 3am studying for a test. Have to be up at six for campaigning. I am going to die.
I'm losing my mind. I'm on the verge of breaking down.
If it were in my power, I'd send you a totally refreshed body... :)
Alas... But please persevere:
I kinda went through that with my photography portfolio deadline last friday. The amount of things that went slightly wrong was very annoying. I know its not extreme as your's, but you will pull through. I am pretty crap with advice sorry but just hoping you are doing okay. I could not also tell you the amount of petty tears I left over my panic over my work. And the money i spent on that portfolio......

Accrington boss John Coleman felt there was nothing wrong with his side's late equaliser in the 1-1 draw with Rotherham.
The Millers were disappointed Sean Hessey's quick free-kick seven minutes from time was allowed to stand with Conrad Logan still assembling the wall.
Ryan Cresswell had headed Rotherham in front at the break before Hessey's controversial strike levelled matters.
Coleman said: "I don't think the referee determined which way the game went even if they were disappointed with the quick free-kick.
"Sean Hessey had asked to take it quickly and the ref said yes so Rotherham can have no complaints.
"I think both teams went for it and could have won. I was pleased with our performance, we took the game to Rotherham and they scored with their only attempt on goal in the first half and that's disappointing."

I had to check your profile page – it says you are in the United States. I had to check to insure that this was not a language issue – apparently it is not, therefore your delusional fantasy that I've "told you what to do," in regards to your own art must be a mental aberration – because clearly I have not instructed you what to do at all.
I've merely pointed you to valid sources of information and informed you of the facts.
Feel free to wallow in your fantasy of victimization – hopefully you will stop for a moment and consider why facts disturb you so, but frankly I doubt it.
Just be assured of one thing, continue to lie to me about words I've written and I will continue to respond, with the facts, so perhaps you best take my advice son, and block me.
Is Type1arts guilty of copyright infringement? Yes.
The following information is found at about.deviantart.com/policy/co… under the heading:
"What is Copyright Infringement?"
To simplify this question, copyright infringement occurs when you do certain things with a creative work which someone else produced without first getting the proper permission.
Some examples of copyright infringement (this is only a partial listing) can include:
1. Placing someone else's photograph or creative work online without proper permission.
2. Using a creative work commercially without permission.
3. Adapting someone else's creative work found in one medium to another medium, such as making a book into a movie or a photograph into a painting.
4. Modifying or editing a creative work without proper permission.
– from Copyright Policy about.deviantart.com/policy/co…
Here are the facts: On March 18, 2014, Type1arts placed a comment on one of my images stating his intent to post it to his tumbler account. I responded within 17 minutes of his comment ordering him to cease and desist, and informing him of my right to refuse him permission to re-post my artwork.
Despite my notice Type1arts has posted my artwork without authorization on his tumbler account. As of this date further actions are underway.
I recognize that it is up to you as the artist to decide if you want to permit Type1arts to re-post your artwork, but consider the following: if this user has no respect for your right to control the placement of your work, what other violations of your rights might this user commit?
Consider and act as your judgment dictates.
You obviously do not appreciate my concern very much judging by your response below. Which is fine, your prerogative.
I filed a DMCA Take Down Notice (an official notification under Section 512(c) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA") on Friday, March 21, at 9 am local time.
I received confirmation of the action taken this morning at 9 am local time.
I checked the url where Type1arts had illegally posted my work – and can confirm the work has been taken down.
Note: Over a span of 7 days Type1arts failed to read, heed, or respond to my order not to post my property on his site. He failed to respond to all e-mail contacts during this time. He was on Deviant Art every day according to his activity log. Only after action had been taken did he belatedly contact me in regards to the issue- informing me (lamely) after the fact that my property had been removed from his site.
This is the character of the individual involved.
1. Copyright is a point of law – not belief.
A work is not automatically licensed creative commons – my work is proprietary. So, no, his action was not legal.
If you are a professional photographer then you know the industry standard is to acquire written permission before you re-post someone else's intellectual property. I am surprised you even suggest otherwise.
Copyright law defines re-posting an intellectual property without permission as copyright infringement.
Deviant Art has an excellent policy page which outlines copyright law, available here: about.deviantart.com/policy/co…
Your opinion is of no interest to me, the facts are available at the link.
2. There is no "witch-hunt" involved. Type1arts posted my art after I ordered him not to. This is a fact.
Using Type1art's activity log I have alerted others who's art was re-posted of this fact so that they may know the character of the individual involved and make their own choices.
3. I pointed people to where valid sources of information are located. There is no "waving my beliefs" involved.
If you do not care to know the facts – that is fine, your choice.
I've acted to secure the work I own rights to, what you do is not my concern.
A point of reason: if you think re-posting art (illegally) to a site with no foot-traffic, a site with no index (only a continuous scroll of images arbitrarily arranged with no context or form) is "exposure" … well, obviously there is nothing I can say to credit such thinking.
Copyright law defines re-posting an intellectual property without permission as copyright infringement.
Deviant Art has an excellent policy page which outlines copyright law, available here: about.deviantart.com/policy/co…
Your opinion is of no interest to me, the facts are available at the link.

I wish people would actually read the damn report before making themselves look like fools. If it weren't so sad I would laugh, thank you for proving the point of the report, that everyone has been brainwashed and claim this and that and the other with absolutely NO proof to back up their claims. Sorry guys, I'm going to trust the experts and the Yale professor about this/
WHAT should Israel do about a report claiming that Israelis and Palestinians delegitimise each other in their schools? Delegitimise the report, is the response from the Israeli side. Sounding more amenable, Salam Fayyad, the Palestinians' prime minister, asked for help to improve the curriculum.
"Malicious slander," cried people in the office of Binyamin Netanyahu, Israel's prime minister, when a study funded by the American government that compared Israeli and Palestinian textbooks found that both sowed negative stereotypes of each other. After failing to suppress the report, Israeli officials tried to delay its publication. A meeting requested by the researchers and the ministry's lawyer never materialised. A deputy prime minister and former head of the armed forces expressed irritation that Israelis were being judged by the same yardstick as Palestinians. "We teach peace, they teach war," said his spokesman.
The report says that Israeli and Palestinian teachers both portray their neighbours as enemies, though Israel does so considerably less. After ploughing through nearly 30,000 pages of text, the researchers found that 49% of texts dealing with Palestinians in Israeli state-issued schoolbooks are negative; in government-funded Orthodox Jewish academies the figure rises to 73%. One such textbook depicts Arabs as "bloodthirsty" and "a nest of murderers".
In Palestinian textbooks 84% of the references to Israelis are negative. In both Palestinians and Israeli state schools the books promote "martyrdom-sacrifice through death". Each side glorifies itself, while denigrating the other.
Moreover, the textbooks tend to deny each other's existence. Of 800 maps of their contested land studied by the researchers, 87% of the Israeli ones mark none of the land between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan river as Palestinian, whereas 96% of Palestinian maps make no mention of Israel. "Israeli school maps feed into the Palestinian narrative that Israel wants to grab more and more land, and Palestinian school maps feed an Israeli narrative that Palestinians want to throw them into the sea," says Bruce Wexler, the Yale professor who oversaw the project. Israeli critics of the report have panned the Council of Religious Institutions of the Holy Land, an association of local rabbis, imams and priests, who commissioned Mr Wexler, a Jewish American.

Thom Yorke Reveals a Whopping Three Live Gigs With Nigel Godrich
Radiohead duo lugging two decks and a mic to New York
Thom Yorke and Nigel Godrich have a few unconventional live performances on the way. As Yorke tweeted this morning, "Me & Nigel out & about with two turntables & a microphone - London 22feb, Berlin 8march, NY 14march. special guests & location to follow.." We wish we were special guests, but — well, you all know how "Creep" goes.
The Radiohead frontman and longtime Radiohead producer Godrich also play together in Atoms for Peace, set to release debut album Amok on February 26 in the U.S. via XL Recordings. Yorke and Godrich also recently put together a laid-back mix for a menswear show. And Yorke last month gave what our own Radiohead head Daniel Kreps authoritatively dubbed his "most candid interview ever."
And now, apropos of "two turntables & a microphone," here's a vintage Beck video.
