Meeting of April 8, 2010
Posted on April 8, 2010
PRESENT: Raza Amin '12, Co-Chair Gabe Amo '10, SGA President; Craig Andrade, Associate Dean of Health and Wellness; Tim Barker, Professor of Physics/Astronomy; Abigail Earle '11, Charles Furgal, Director of Public Safety; Co-Chair Andrea Holden, Assistant Director of Student Life; Jim Mancall, Associate Dean of Studies for 1st and Sophomore Years; Kenneth Monroe '12, Alyssa Sands '11, Alexandra Schibanoff '12, John Sutyak, Associate Director of Athletics
ABSENT: Rebecca Pye, Campus Coordinator
OTHERS: Janith Hancock, Adm. Associate, Dean of Students Office
The meeting of the Yellow Wood Commission opened at 3:33pm. It was suggested that the Commission may want to focus on the areas of the Alcohol Policy violations that need change because they are unclear and work with those areas that are more substantive another time. Also to be discussed is the community discussion that will be taking place on April 22 and what we would like to see happen at that event.
Gabe Amo will be graduating this year and a new co-chair will be needed. He asked the student members of the Commission to think about serving in that capacity. Those interested should email Gabe by Monday, April 12. There will also be a workshop at Assumption College on April 14 and those members interested in going should make arrangements as soon as possible. Bios and photos of the members of the Yellow Wood Commission should be submitted as soon as possible so they can be incorporated into the new website. Members may also want to consider new issues they want to talk about so time can be set aside to discuss them.
The members then continued their discussion of the Alcohol Policy, Level II violations. It was noted that the format for Level II appears to be visibly problematic in its block form. Perhaps if the information was in a different format it would flow better. Also, there may be need to clarify the Social Host definition. One member's interpretation was that Social Host meant that if a violation occurred and it was your room, you would receive a Level II violation and everyone else would receive a Level I. Another definition may be that the person hosting the party was the Social Host and would be liable for behavior that happens in the room. Also asked was the capacity of a room. Some students would like to see that specified in the policy. The law regarding persons possessing, drinking and providing alcohol was then read.
The members talked about potential sanctions for Level II violations. It was asked if there were academic sanctions and what would they be. Presently there are no academic sanctions. Students may receive sanctions that require them to write a paper or do community service. Some students view writing a paper for a sanction as busy work and having little meaning. Perhaps academic sanctions may be considered in the future, and they would be based on the incident. Concern was raised about whether or not information about alcohol violations and sanctions would appear on a student's transcript and who would have access to the students file. The file is the property of the college and not the student. Students are allowed to see the file and make notes but may not make copies. The information about alcohol violations are not on a student's transcript. There were questions about whether a student could take an appeal of an alcohol sanction to the College Hearing Board and how that process would work. Would these violations and sanctions change the student's status? If a student is placed on housing probation, does that mean they are no longer in good standing, and is it an official disciplinary action? Also of concern was whether sanctions should be "mandatory" and be spelled out or if sanctions should be "potential" sanctions. It was felt that there is a need to be consistent, and, perhaps, a letter is all that is needed for a first offense. It was suggested that having an Area Coordinator attend one of the Yellow Wood meetings to talk about consistency and choices available to ACs may be helpful. Not all incidents are the same but if certain things are mandatory that may need to be stated. It is important to understand where discretion can occur and to separate mandatory sanctions from potential sanctions and how students ascend the levels of violations. How often students have appealed alcohol violation sanctions to the College Hearing Board was asked and determined to be rare. Do students lose their leadership positions if given an alcohol violation? There appears to be only two levels of violations: Level 1 and Level II, III, and IV.
The group discussed at length the upcoming Community Conversation to be held on April 22 and what the format should be, the length of the conversation, and how students would be made aware of the event. The Commission would like to gather information from those attending and also let them know what the Commission has been working on. They want to have the community know they are looking for their ideas and thoughts about the work they are doing. They are hoping to learn what others feel the alcohol culture is at Wheaton, what do they dislike about the alcohol culture, what they would like to change, what specific issues they want changed about the alcohol policy and violation sanctions, how dangerous drinking can be reduced, how can harm be reduced, etc. Concern was raised that many students may not be able to attend the forum because of athletic practices or classes/labs. However, this forum is just one of several and those will be at various times to accommodate others schedules.
Having the "story project" move forward was revisited. It was suggested that the café could be used as an area where students could record their stories by means of a microphone and video camera and then it could be included in information available to others. This could be a very powerful aid.
It was suggested that at next week's meeting the sub-groups report on any work they have been doing (the Safe Rides group is planning to meet again with the taxi company). The members were reminded to send their bios and photo to the co-chairs as soon as possible so the information could be placed on the website before the April 22 Community Conversation.
The meeting adjourned at 5pm.
Respectfully submitted,
Janith L. Hancock
Administrative Associate
Office of the Dean of Students

High Point Market
by allthebest • 12 Oct '12 • profile • 8 Comments
Tomorrow I leave for High Point Market in North Carolina. It's one of the biggest events in the industry and I have yet to attend (making this trip even more exciting). This past February I met the lovely Lisa Hanly, Vice President, Corporate Communications and Public Relations for Furniture Brands (including: Thomasville, Drexel Heritage, Maitland-Smith, Pearson, Henredon, Broyhill, Hickory, La Barge, Lane Furniture and Lane Venture), who kindly invited me to come and witness High Point for myself.
The theme for this market is 'Fashion Focus' and I am eager to see what's in store–especially after Lisa sent me these fabulous sketches of Drexel Heritage's new Viage Collection. In the same vein, I really want to see the two Thomasville tables (below) in person! I will try to post as best as I can while at market, but feel free to follow me on Instagram (AllTheBestBlog) from great photos or Twitter @allthebestblog
Additionally, Rizzoli is hosting it's 2nd annual 'Superstar Book Signing' on Monday, Oct. 15, at 4pm in the Market Square Courtyard. Authors include Charlotte Moss, Henrietta Spencer-Churchill, Susanna Salk, Florence de Dampierre, and James Lowell Strickland. The first 75 attendees will receive an exclusive sneak-peek of my book Designers at Home: Personal Reflections on Stylish Living.

Look your absolute best at House of Bronze, your source for safe, sunless spray tanning in Deptford, New Jersey.
HOW SUNLESS WORKS: DHA solutions have experienced tremendouse growth in the past few years. Typically, there are three types of Bronzers that are used in Sunless Spray Solution.
1) Cosmetic Bronzers
3) Erythrulose
A cosmetic bronzer is visible immediately after being sprayed. PLEASE NOTE; This is just the color guide and will wash off while showering. A DHA bronzer initally has no visible effect. It will begin to react with the skin in two to four hours and develope color. Erythrulose is a slow-reacting bronzer and is similar to DHA.
The tanning industry recognizes dihydroxyacetone as the colorless sugar that makes the magic happen in the sunless tanning process. DHA reacts with skin proteins, including amino acids, in the outermost-layer of skin. The reaction develops brown skin coloring that looks similar to a beautiful natural tan. DHA is not absorbed into the body and it is non-toxic. It was first approved for cosmetic use in 1973 by the FDA.
Erythrulose is very similar to DHA. While DHA changes color of skin within four to 24 hours, Erythrulose Needs about two to three days for skin to show color change.

[Android] Nice Weather gives you detailed five-day weather forecast
Posted By Kent On December 16, 2013 @ 12:01 PM In Android | No Comments
[1]Not satisfied with your current weather app? Are you looking for a good alternative that could at least give you a more detailed weather forecast? Well, how about getting one that shows the weather forecast that is already good for five consecutive days? If you still haven't found one, you might as well check out this simple yet visually appealing weather application for Android called Nice Weather.
Main Functionality
Nice Weather is a free weather application for Android that is capable of giving you a five-day weather forecast. This application also features a visually appealing and intuitive user interface that provides you with detailed weather information that is based upon your current location. There's also a 3-hour interval for the daily forecasts. Apart from this, this app also shows the temperature, wind speed and precipitation.
[3]Nice Weather is a decent weather app that offers a five-day weather forecast with three-hour interval for daily forecasts. It also does a good job with its UI design. At first glance, you can easily notice the app's striking forecast colors. It is also very slick and responsive. You can easily view the subsequent weather forecasts by simply flicking through your screen.
Another important thing to note about this app is that it does not only give you an overview of today's weather. Per forecast, the app will display the wind speed, temperature and precipitation. It will also show you an interactive graph which displays the evolution of temperature and precipitation. This means that you can compare and monitor how the weather changes which, in turn, can give you time to prepare just in case the weather gets worse or if doesn't go according to your wishes.
What I like about Nice Weather is that its UI is really colorful so it is something that you would want to check as often as possible. You can also customize the units for the temperature, wind speed and precipitation. Other than this, the app lets you view the subsequent weather forecasts by simply dragging the pointer in the graph.
Appearance wise, I can say that this app certainly looks good. I definitely have no complaints about its looks. Functionality wise, this app seems pretty decent but it is not as detailed as AccuWeather. Yes, it does display the most essential elements that one needs to know about the weather but what if you want to delve more into the details? Can Nice Weather provide you with hourly weather updates with night and day comparisons, atmospheric pressure and even a detailed temperature record? Unfortunately, this app is not capable of doing these things. It is also important to note that the free version of this app does not support home screen widgets and multiple locations. So if you want to unlock these options, you need to upgrade to the app's full version.
All in all, I can say that Nice Weather is a decent weather app. Its UI looks good plus it is very responsive and stable. It also displays the most essential elements that you need to consider when it comes to monitoring the weather. It may not be the best and the most detailed weather app in the market but it is still worth checking out especially if you aren't that finicky and you can actually pass the day with or without checking your weather app.

Up until now you've seen how to use WebMatrix to create a very simple web page, and how this page will operate in a number of different browsers as well as how to use CSS styling to make the basic page look a little prettier.
WebMatrix introduces the Razor syntax for programming web pages, and one of the features it gives you is a powerful, yet simple, layout engine. In this article we'll take a look at using the layout features to put all of the common HTML, such as the  and the footer content into one location and have it automatically generated for your page, so that when you are building a page such as the movies list, the file for that page will only have the main content for that page, and the rest will be added for you, with you in full control.
Up to now you've been creating HTML pages that use the .htm or .html extension. These are static pages, so that whenever their address is called by the browser, the server simply sends them and their content to the browser. The server doesn't process the page in any way.
You may have heard of the term 'dynamic' web pages, which are pages that the server builds based on HTML as well as code that runs on the server to determine how it should build the page, with the output being HTML. Dynamic pages give you really powerful scenarios, and for the rest of these series you'll be using them. Amongst other things, they'll allow you to store the movies in a database, and have the server generate the content for your page from the data in the database, instead of you writing out the titles of the movies on your HTML page directly, and having to change your page whenever you want to change your list.
In this section you are going to create your first dynamic page.
In WebMatrix, dynamic web pages have the .CSHTML or .VBHTML extension. These are effectively HTML files with inline code written in either C# (CS) or Visual Basic (VB), thus dictating the name. I'll be using CSHTML files, which allow me to write inline code on the page using the C# language. The methodology for doing this, and the syntax that allows me to do this inline within HTML is nicknamed 'Razor'.
So let's create one.
Using WebMatrix, in the Files workspace, create a new CSHTML page called movies.cshtml:
WebMatrix will create a page for you that looks like a basic HTML page. Replace the content of this page with the following:

It's a wonderful life

Lord of the Rings

The Fourth World

The Lion King

Doesn't this look strange? There's no  tag, there's no  or  tag, but guess what, it still works! Or at least it works a little. Run it, and you'll see this:
Now the page above looks very similar to what we did earlier, but let's define the page header as everything in the HTML before the
 containing the movies list, and the page footer as everything in the HTML after the
 containing the movies list. Don't confuse this with the  and  tags in the default.cshtml page you've been working on thus far.
Create a new page called 'PageHeader.cshtml' and copy everything that is above the moviesList
 from default.chtml into it. It should look like this:
<!DOCTYPE html>

<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title>My Favorite Movies</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="movies.css" />

A list of my Favorite Movies

Similarly, create a new page called 'PageFooter.cshtml' and copy everything that is below the moviesList
 from default.chtml into it. It should look like this:

This site was built using Microsoft WebMatrix.
Download it now.
Now that you have these in place, you're going to write your first piece of server code using 'Razor'. WebMatrix tells the difference between HTML and 'Razor' code by the use of the '@' character. You place this character before any lines of code that are instructions to the server telling it what to do.
So, for example the following command:
@RenderPage("pagename") will cause the server to load the HTML from 'pagename' and put it at this place within the current file. So, for our example, if we change the movies.cshtml to look like this:
When we run the page, it will look like this:
It's exactly how the static HTML file appeared. This should be no surprise, because it now has the same header and footer (including the code asking the page to load the CSS), and the same body text. But as you saw, it's a whole lot easier to deal with the page now, as all the code for the header and footer aren't in the way, and any new pages you create will have the same header, footer and style sheet
With this approach, you created the page, and then used Razor code when the page ran to include the header and footer code on the page. It's a bottom-up approach.
Another, and perhaps more efficient approach is to go the other way around -- create a Layout that you use as a template for every page, and then include the specific content you want in that. This is more of a top-down approach.
Let's see how this works: Create a new CSHTML page, and call it _siteLayout.cshtml.
Replace the content of the page that was created for you with the following. If it looks familiar, this is everything that was in the static default.html page that you created earlier
Now remove the
 called 'movieslist' and replace it with the following code:
Remember, earlier we said that the '@' symbol is telling WebMatrix to run code on the server at this point. The RenderBody command simply tells WebMatrix to render the content of the page at this location.
Here's how your _siteLayout.cshtml page should look now:
So, when it comes to the page called movies.cshtml that you created a moment ago, the content of the page is the
 and the

 list. Thus, the idea is, that when you browse to the CSHTML page, WebMatrix will use the layout page to determine how to draw the page, thus it takes the head, the CSS and everything from the layout page.
Before trying this out, don't forget to remove the @RenderPage("PageHeader.cshtml") and @RenderPage("PageFooter.cshtml") commands from movies.cshtml.
Now if you've been paying attention, you probably are thinking – how does it know to use _siteLayout.cshtml for my movies.cshtml page? The answer is, it doesn't. We have to tell WebMatrix to use that.
Fortunately, that's pretty easy to do.
If you create a page called _PageStart.cshtml, this page will be called whenever WebMatrix runs a CSTHML (or VBHTML) page.
A good use for this is to set up global variables or functions. Here we'll just tell it that the layout for the entire site will be driven by _siteLayout.cshtml.
So go ahead and create _PageStart.cshtml.
Replace its content with the following:
Layout = "~/_siteLayout.cshtml";
Run movies.cshtml and take a look at it in the browser now.
If you try to run your _siteLayout.cshtml or _PageStart.cshtml, you will receive an error. If you are receiving a runtime error, make sure that your movies.cshtml file is selected in your file directory in WebMatrix.
So what just happened? Let's take a look, step by step at what WebMatrix did to run your page:
1. The browser asked the server for movies.cshtml
2. The server saw that _PageStart.cshtml exists, so it ran it. This only had one line of code, setting the Layout variable to say that the layout for the site is in the file called siteLayout.cshtml
3. The server then ran siteLayout.cshtml to lay out the page. This gave it the head, the css, the  tags, and everything that you'd expect in a static HTML page
4. The server got to the code that read @RenderBody(), at which point it injected the content of movies.cshtml into the page
5. The server got the rest of the code from siteLayout.cshtml, finishing off the page with the closing  and  tags as well as the footer.
6. The complete page was returned to the browser, complete with styling information.
The benefits of this approach are clear, and we can demonstrate this by showing the amount of work that you need to do to create another page.
Using WebMatrix, create another page called about.cshtml.
Replace all of the content of about.cshtml with the following:

About me

I'm the author of this page. I should put something interesting here.

Now browse to about.cshtml – the same process outlined in the previous section will execute, except this time when the _siteLayout.cshtml page reaches @RenderBody(), it will render the content from your about.cshtml page, and the result will look like this:
See how the title and footer of the page remained? Now if I want to edit my 'about' page, I don't have to wade through all the plumbing of the page, but instead just edit the content that goes within the main part of the page. This could save you a lot of time and effort in coding your sites.
It's just the tip of the iceberg in what you can do with layouts and includes in WebMatrix.
In this article you saw how using the built-in layout mechanism in WebMatrix can make building sites much easier by taking all the common code for all your pages and putting it into layout files. You built your first dynamic pages (i.e. pages that are built on-the-fly by your server, instead of just files on the server's file system), using C# and the 'Razor' syntax.
In the next section you'll go deeper into the Razor syntax by replacing the static list of movies with one that is driven off a database. WebMatrix integrates the SQL Server Compact database, which is a free, file-driven database, as well as a set of database tools for creating and managing databases and data. You'll see how to create the database, add fields, add data, and then write code that takes your data and writes it onto the page whenever a user calls your page!
In the next part you'll take a look at creating data with your application using WebMatrix built in data management features.

The HTML form has three text fields, in which the user is requested to enter a user name, a password and an e-mail address. (I personally prefer to use e-mail addresses as user names, but I realize many people don't, so I'll add it this month.) We know from the database definition that the user name must be unique in the system, but the name and e-mail address can each exist multiple times.
The registration program (in Listing 2) is a relatively simple CGI program. It connects to the database using Perl's DBI interface, then uses the standard start of CGI programs, grabbing parameters and generally getting ready. The program then checks the database to see if the user name already exists, returning the number of rows it matches in the database. If no rows match, we can assume that the user name is available. (There is something of a race condition here, but we're not going to complicate things with transactions for this small example.)
This is the type of registration form with which most of us are familiar. Moreover, this is the type of registration form many of us continue to implement on various sites. It's easy for the programmer to build, it's easy to understand and debug, and it's compatible with all browsers out there.
The problem is not in the technical underpinnings of the program, but rather in the user interface. From nontechnical users' perspectives, it doesn't make sense for them to enter a user name, password and e-mail address, then submit it, and only then find out that the user name is unacceptable. Surely there must be a way to fix this!
JavaScript is almost always found within the pages of an HTML document. We can define and invoke functions inside of the document, triggering the invocations with event handlers. Thus, we can check the contents of a form when someone clicks the submit button, before the contents are sent to the server. We can change styles when the mouse moves on (or off) particular text and graphics. And, we can execute functions when someone enters or exits an HTML form element.
Listing 3 contains js-register.html, a modified version of register.html. The basic idea in this file is that as soon as the username text field is modified by the user, the browser executes the checkUsername function.

As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, as Amended (FERPA), the following directory information may be made public unless the student desires to withhold any or all of this information:
Name Universal Identification Number (UIN) - effective January 2012 Local Address Permanent Address E-mail Address Local Telephone Number Permanent Telephone Number Dates of Attendance Program of Study (college, major, and campus) Classification Previous Educational Agencies/Institutions Attended Degrees, Honors and Awards Received Participation in Officially Recognized Activities and Sports Medical Residence Location (Health Science Center students) Medical Residence Specialization (Health Science Center students)
Currently enrolled students wishing to withhold any or all directory information items may do so by:
Once information has been published in a printed publication, it cannot be removed from that publication. The campus directory is published once a year, and after it is compiled, no information can be removed before the next printing.
Only currently enrolled students are eligible to restrict directory information. Once a student has left the university, they can no longer set restrictions on directory information at the university. If a student restricts his/her directory information and leaves the university, the restriction continues until the student removes it.
Texas A&M University and the Office of the Registrar will exercise discretion in the release of all directory information.
Texas A&M University encourages students to exercise all of their rights under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (20 U.S.C. 1232g). Operating under the premise that the educational process is a cooperative venture between a student and the University, we emphasize the following rights of eligible students:
One exception which permits disclosure without consent is disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official is a person or entity: (a) employed by the university or the university system in an administrative, supervisory, academic or research, or support staff position; (b) serving on a university governing body or duly authorized panel or committee; or (c) employed by or under contract to the university to perform a special task, function, or service for the university.
A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the information requested is necessary for that official to (a) perform appropriate tasks that are specified in his/her position description or in the performance of regularly assigned duties by a lawful supervisor; (b) fulfill the terms of a contractual agreement; (c) perform a task related to a student's education; (d) perform a task related to the discipline of a student; or (e) provide a service or benefit relating to the student or student's family, such as health care, financial aid, job placement, or former student-related activities.
Disclosure to a school official having a legitimate educational interest does not constitute university authorization to transmit, share, or disclose any or all information received to third parties unless such disclosure is permitted or required by law.
All the rights and protections given students under FERPA belong to the student, however, information in student records may be provided to parents/legal guardians without the written consent of the student if the eligible student is a financial dependent of his or her parents/legal guardians as defined under Section 152 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
For procedures on how to inspect and review or correct education records, please refer to the Texas A&M University Standard Administrative Procedure on Student Records.
Students shall have access to all of their education records as maintained by the university with the exception of the following:
Questions concerning the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) may be referred to the Registrar.
Under provisions of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), students enrolled in post-secondary educational institutions are deemed to "own" their educational records. Institutions may, but are not required to, grant access to certain non-directory information in a student's educational record if the student is claimed as a dependent on his or her parent's/guardian's federal income tax return. Generally non-directory information will not be released to a parent or guardian unless a Certification of Dependency Form is completed and signed by both the parent(s)/guardian(s) and the student and is brought to the Office of the Registrar, General Services Complex, 750 Agronomy Road, Suite 1501 or mailed to the Office of the Registrar, P.O. Box 30018, College Station, TX 77842-3018.
Current students may authorize parent/guardian access to view certain non-directory information (e.g., grades) within Howdy. In order for parents/guardians to gain access to this information in Howdy, the student must request it via the My Record tab in Howdy. Once a student is no longer enrolled at Texas A&M University, a parent's/guardian's Howdy account will be inactivated. If a student re-enrolls at Texas A&M University, the student may re-activate the parent/guardian Howdy accounts. Once parent/guardian Howdy access has been inactivated upon their student becoming a former student, parents/guardians may still contact the Registrar's Office to obtain information on their former student, providing the parent/guardian is able to demonstrate eligibility to receive this information in compliance with FERPA.
The Family Policy Compliance Office reviews and investigates complaints of violations of FERPA. The penalty for violating FERPA is loss of all federal funding, including grants and financial aid.
If you witness or commit what you believe to be a possible FERPA violation, please notify the Office of the Registrar immediately at 979-845-1145, firstname.lastname@example.com or Help Desk Central at 979-845-8300 (24 hours). The Office of the Registrar will investigate the matter and determine what action, if any, should be taken. If you have any questions about FERPA compliance or the release of student information, please contact Venesa Heidick, Registrar at firstname.lastname@example.com or 979-845-1145.

Posted By Tom Kensler On August 10, 2011 @ 4:18 pm In Football,Pac-12,University of Colorado | No Comments
BOULDER — In a message to the media Wednesday afternoon, University of Colorado sports information said sophomore defensive end Chidera Uzo-Diribe was released from a local hospital after tests were negative.
Uzo-Diribe landed awkwardly with his neck and shoulder during a drill Wednesday morning and remained on the practice field turf until an ambulance arrived.
Regarded as Colorado's best pass rusher, Uzo-Diribe did not lose consciousness or the use of his extremities. CU coach Jon Embree told reporters that Uzo-Diribe was taken by ambulance for precautionary reasons and that he was expected to be OK.
"He'll be sore and will return to practice as soon as possible," according to the CU message.

todays the kind of day that makes me wonder about at what temperature does skin melt? i know its kind of disturbing if you think about it too much but im really hott and i dont care. i think i used the wrong spelling for hot. u can interpret it either way. it kind of sucks for the dog tho too. my roommate has a dog that i sometimes help out with. he's a siberian husky. i feel sorry for him. imagine having 2 inches of fur in 90 degree heat. ya. it sucks. and of course our pool is out of order at the moment. apparently something happened with the pipes or something like that. but its supposed to be working by friday. thats not helping me today tho. my car doesnt exactly have air conditioning and even when i roll the windows down its too hott to even cool me off at all. i hate humidity.
I would expect skin to burn, rather than melt. Though, with sufficient pressure, you could probably get it in liquid form at room temperature.
Er...sorry, that wasn't really the point of the post, was it?

Medical professionals might disagree with your statement that Santorum and his wife decided not to have an abortion when a fetal anomaly was detected and threated his wife's life. They did, it appears, choose to protect her life rather than that of the fetus via second trimester or late term abortion, which Santorum opposes for others but apparently is characterized as something else for his wife.
Santorum doesn't seem to deny that he and his wife had scheduled the abortion at 20 weeks to save her life, although she actually went into labor and miscarried, safely, before doctors could perform it. Their very premeture son died about 2 hours later, and I understand he was missing most of his head and brain stem.
What Santorum does deny is that any other woman would ever be in the same circumstances because only his wife and her doctors were telling the truth, that the fetal anomoly was really killing her. He does not believe that any other woman and her doctors are telling the truth.
Thank you for the additional information/correction. But truly, that doesn't help Santorum in my eyes: he's still of the "do as I say, not as I do" camp, making personal exceptions for himself and his family that no one else merits.
All you need to know about the rationale for the separation of church and state is contained in this short article.
You know you are talking about a nutjob when Lexington doesn't add any commentary and just makes a bullet-point of the crazy.
People around the world regularly look on with amusement at the odd characters American politics sometimes throws at us. If you want us to break out in hysterics, by all means elect this man as your president.
Interestingly, he might be wise to stay at home during his term as much of what he says might very well qualify as a "hate crime" in other English speaking countries and would bring calls for his arrest should he travel overseas.
The red-hot zeal with which the evangelical right declares what is right and wrong for other people has in my lifetime been matched only by the most passionate Communists I have met.
They tend also noisily to support the Second Amendment. This document states that arms are needed for "a well regulated Militia". Would it not be possible to amend the Amendment by declaring that others than militiamen are entitled to carry heavily armoured Bibles?
People Santorum comprise part of the reason I am an atheist. Speaking of atheism, I wish there were as much freedom FROM religion in America as there is freedom OF religion. That way I would not have people coming to my door to convert me, trying to give me Bibles in the street and asking me to come to their church Sunday mornings.
"Speaking of atheism, I wish there were as much freedom FROM religion in America as there is freedom OF religion. That way I would not have people coming to my door to convert me, trying to give me Bibles in the street and asking me to come to their church Sunday mornings."
Last I checked, you have the right to say "no, thank you." Who knows...down the road you may find your way back to religion and be thankful to those people who invited you to their church/temple/mosque, etc. In the meantime, there's nothing wrong with being a polite member of society.
So really you're no better than Santorum. You would like to use the police power of the state to control other people's actions.
Well done bigot.
"Last I checked, you have the right to say "no, thank you." Who knows...down the road you may find your way back to religion and be thankful to those people who invited you to their church/temple/mosque, etc. In the meantime, there's nothing wrong with being a polite member of society."
That's rather presumptuous. How do you figure I am not polite? In addition, perhaps I am wrong, but the tone of your email seems to indicate that I have some sort of defect and that I have somehow lost my way. Did I post in my email that there was no such thing as god and that anyone who thought so was a nut? No, I just said I wanted to be left alone.
Um, how do you figure? Did I say anything about rules, regulations, police? How is asking people to exercise a little courtesy and not come to my door or shove Bibles in my face on the street using the police power of the state in any way, shape or form?
Hi Grinnell,
My apologies for being presumptuous. It's entirely possible that you're polite to the people inviting you to join their congregations.
But as I alluded to in my earlier post, in a free society, they have a right to live their faith and you have a right not to. A key part of most religions is to invite others to learn about it. Once you start down the path of banning people from not being able to share their religions, you're denying them the rights of a free society and that can be a slippery slope. Again, just saying "no" when people invite you into their places of worship does the trick and lets everyone live in harmony. Or, if you really want to make it interesting, begin asking them questions about their faith. Challenge them. Healthy discourse is a wonderful thing.
Hello SilentDogood,
I most certainly am polite but I guess I still wonder why there is such a double standard when it comes to "spreading the word". When I was in college some guys in my dorm were evangelical Christians. They took it upon themselves to make me their pet project. They absolutely would not leave me alone. You note that a key part of most religions is to invite others to learn about it. Does that make it right? Perhaps the world would be a more peaceful place if people did not evangelize? I am not proposing banning anything. I am proposing that people respect my right not to have people bother me with their ideas. If I want to discuss religion with them I will seek them out.
It pays to be a bit dumb, or even plain stupid being a republican candidate. Santorum is part of the freak show put on the road by the Republican Party. The American press must know, but dare not to point out to the general public that we deal with complete morons. Santorum is not an exception. Gingrich states that he would ignore rulings of the supreme court when he considers them wrong. Bachman thinks she is a smart as Thatcher, but has no clue where her own embassies are located and so on. With so much stupidity and ignorance the Chinese will soon be the only real superpower in the world.
" and God-fearing, the proud father of six children, whom he and his wife have schooled at home."
It just gets worse. Poor kids...though maybe they will never know better.
Unless there is very good reason (physical or mental disability or personality disorder perhaps) I think home schooling should not be allowed; the rights of children are greater than the rights parents may claim for themselves. It seems to me that supporting parents' wishes ahead of children's needs is anti-freedom.
Sarah, where are you? Please come back...all is forgiven.
yes the rights of the children - to have an education that suits them - trumps all. So sometimes homeschooling is the right answer. Most school systems educate in one way, but everyone is an individual, so to think that everyone should be educated in one way is quite silly.
There may be more exceptions than I suggested but I doubt there are many good cases for home schooling.
"Most school systems educate in one way, " suggest a rigid approach. Most schools are staffed by qualified teachers who know a lot about children's learning modes.
"the rights of children are greater than the rights parents may claim for themselves. It seems to me that supporting parents' wishes ahead of children's needs is anti-freedom".
Impressive. Pro-Life it is.
No, but pro-life.
I would say Pro-Life is evil but for the fact most members seem inadequate....possibly for genetic problems (there is evidence to suggest religiosity is genetic and PL seems to be associated with religious extremism) or possibly through indoctrination.
You were doing so well till you decided to knock home schooling. First question: Have you tried it? If you haven't, well, then, please you are just being as narrow minded as the person you are attempting to chastise. If you have and it didn't take then the teacher (parent) didn't bother to do the research into how best to go about it. Either way, please lay of the home schooling part. My two sons were home schooled by my wife and I. Both recited Shakespeare by 6. Knew Roman and Greek civilization history by 7. Read Latin by 7 and performed logic equations by 8. One graduated from an ivy league uni on the east coast, the other, Kings College. Don't mock homeschool!
100 people decided to run across a busy 6 lane freeway. One survived...must be a great hobby.
"Knew Roman and Greek civilization history by 7. "
All of it?
From your choice of subjects I'm inclined to believe you are one of the reasons I think home schooling is to be frowned on. Are they really the things kids should learn (whilst kids)? NO..NO..NO!
Tom, there are many good reasons to homeschool children. That you would deny homeschooling it is just as crazy as Santorum not allowing gays to serve in the military. Try thinking a little harder next time.
Marc (homeschooling parent, oh, and an atheist as well)
Please tell me how you jump from gays in the army to home schooling?
You might be a good example why it should be allowed only where there are good reasons, not just your wish.
I simply meant that a ban on both seemed equally ridiculous.
Don't bother. In Tom's world, only he knows what subjects children ought to be exposed to...and In what order.
Next thing you know he is not going to allow parents to feed their children certain foods.
Hi Chichiflys, this is probably the first instance I've come across a person who does not understand the virtues of home school. I guess its a good thing that I left out that the fact that I thought my boys evolution and natural selection instead of intelligent design.
I can imagine Democrats are lining up to vote for this guy. After 4 years of this kind of religious fundamentalism, the Republican party would cease to exist.
so would the free world
Another intolerant, holier than thou meddler who proves the bumper sticker: "The Christian Right is neither". Go eat a corn dog with Bachmann, Mr Santorum.
"Ride". Very droll.
I am willing to accept a measure of Santorum's playing to conservatives' moral dogma for political support as his more important views on government and economics resonate with me. He emphasizes downsizing government, freedom, and personal responsibility over the rise of the nanny state.
I am also persuaded that an acting President's prurient social views are tempered by the wisdom of the people and the legislative and judicial branches of government. This includes his religiously based abhorrence of abortion, homosexuality, etc., but acceptance that however unpleasant to him, these practices have become generally accepted social realities.
I also keep in mind Thomas Jefferson's observation that "I have never believed there was one code of morality for a public and another for a private man." He seems a plain spoken man. I'm interested to see how he manages his dilemma.
"He emphasizes downsizing government, freedom, and personal responsibility over the rise of the nanny state."
Yeah, nothing spells personal responsibility and opposes the nanny state as legislating sexual practices between consenting adults.
What he emphasizes is the universal application of his tribal taboos by the force of law; the fact that he thinks that this is important, but there is no need for those silly laws preventing corporations from pumping mercury into the air, for instance, is interesting, in the sense that cognitive pathology can be fascinating.
I'd buy your argument if he didn't get to nominate judges to the Supreme Court.
"He emphasizes downsizing government, freedom, and personal responsibility over the rise of the nanny state."
Here is exactly what is wrong with the Republican party. Make certain bedroom activities illegal, while claiming to be increasing freedom. Blatantly absurd and hypocritical. How can anyone support that?
As someone on here said the other day, "The Republican party believes in big government when it comes to restricting people, but small government when it comes to helping people".
Excuse me, but what "wisdom" of which "people"? If my countrymen and women were "wise" these bobble-head buffoons would not have even warranted a small article on a back page in a third-rate newspaper. It staggers the imagination to think of so many people enthusiastically supporting ignorant, muddle-headed, ill-informed Republican candidates like Bachman, Perry, Santorum, et.al. And let us not forget the Sarah Palin fan club, still among us, ringin' those bells.
And do you really think the Congress of the United States -- whose credibility rating is it's lowest in decades and decades, is "wise"? Some of us (that would be the majority of us, who rate them sooo low) strongly disagree.
A "plain spoken man" does not necessarily have an IQ -- mentally or morally -- higher than 32. That is the degree hereabouts (in farenheit-land) at which all turns to solid ice. And then, it cracks.
Thank you for the thoughtful comment. I have the sense that Santorum is honest when asked about his opinions. Media producers and Interviewer's are too simple minded to pose thoughtful questions. So we are treated to opinions about the same old hot button topics guaranteed to stir up emotions - in people who would never vote for a Republican candidate anyway. Does what he thinks about abortion, gay marriage, etc. really matter? Consider the usual push-back from congress, the judiciary, and the pubic. Obviously, I'd have to learn a lot more about Santorum before I'd actually go and knock on doors for him.
I'm more interested in how he plans to prioritize government programs ans servicesthe nation's financial problems.
Although the presidency in theory can be put in check by the other branches of government, Santorum would not be completely neutered. First of all, as someone pointed out-he would have the ability to appoint judges. If the Dems had enough seats to filibuster or block a nominee, the most extreme would probably fail, BUT at some point a too far right for comfort judge might make it. Also, regardless of how successful, the President does have the power of the bully pulpit. The President can set the tone, or make a strong case against something. Also, I think that there are enough right wing nuts in government who would feel emboldened by a Santorum Presidency to cause mischief.
Fortunately, I have some faith that this will not be the case!!
Too late, Santorum is already cracked.
So he's Catholic, not such a surprise. In the 1950's-'60s, in Massachusetts it was illegal to SAY the word condom & family planning was prohibited, divorce was prohibited, and public schools [with many non-Catholic students] were prohibited to serve meat on Friday. So with Saint Santorum as president, we get Torquemada II and the Holy Office of the Inquisition.
How nice. So it's Catholic Taleban, not Protestant, but the flavor is the same. The lack of compassion, tolerance, etc. are also more or less the same.
The Catholic Taleban might try, but they had better keep in mind that there are quite a few among us whose ancestors fought against them in some pretty serious dust-ups in history. I have ancestors who fought in the Thirty Years' War. The family knows who they were and where they fought; and they all fought against the Catholic League, and later against the Catholic Hapsburgs. Ricky and his ilk have no idea whom they picked a fight with.
Hey, Ricky, real men have tried to force their demented ideas on us - and failed miserably...
Unfortunately, my Catholic ancestors were probably fighting for the Pope and Kaiser, and against my Protestant ancestors who were fighting for Gustavus Adolphus and Oliver Cromwell.
Isn't it amazing that these ignorant would-be-totalitarians have learned nothing from history. Let's just go back to killing and maiming each other over which version of which holy book we like, and so we can impose our morality and bedroom habits on everyone.
It WOULD get very interesting if the Catholic Taleban and Protestant Taleban were to cooperate to take over the government. Since many of the latter still think the former are led by the Roman Antichrist, and the former still think the latter are heretics, they would eventually turn to slaughtering each other, turning the US into a bigger version of Iraq.
Let's hope reason and secularity prevail. Some of the posters are right, "why does the US suffer such morons to run for office?"
" Let's hope reason and secularity prevail."
Absolutely. I could not believe my ears when I heard an evangelical pastor (one of Perry's vocal supporters from Texas) declaring that Mormonism was a cult - and by extension, no true Christian could, or should, support Romney because of that fact. This in the 21st century USA. Church and state must be kept separate; because if not, all hell would break loose (pun intended)...
Mormonism is in fact a cult, because their beliefs are in fact heresy. And yes, one reason why I do not want Mitt Romney as the Republican candidate for President is precisely because he is Mormon, and I am not comfortable voting for a Mormon.
Yes, Mormons have a great reputation for having good family lives, but that still does not negate the fact that they are heretics.
" Yes, Mormons have a great reputation for having good family lives, but that still does not negate the fact that they are heretics."
Well, I have no intention of getting involved in an argument about whose imaginary friend is real. To me it is all the same: they are all imaginary friends. And some people need friends more than others - even if they are merely imaginary ones... I think that kind of thinking earned me the right to call myself a heretic, but I wish to be called a heretic on a public forum. Would you be so kind, please, and call me a heretic? I have been called many things in my life, but never, ever had the privilege of being called a heretic. I think it would be a great honor to be called a heretic. I am not joking, I assure you.
It is a cult, but so are most religions. If you speak Spanish, I believe the word "culto" is applied to the Catholic Church in some ways.
If the vernacular use of cult, "dangerous or extreme practices or interpretations by a small group of people" is applied, it applies to a number of right-wing "Christian" groups. The ones who denigrate the "Mainstream" as "Lamestream."
"baylorjedi" might be quite happy with the [un]Holy Office of the Inquisition or the Puritains. Burning Liberals and other heretics is no problem for the self-righteous.
He doesn't believe in freedom unless it is inline with his theology. What sort of freedom is that?
Just another Republican flash in the pan loon candidate, whose 15 minutes of fame happened to line up with the date of the Iowan Caucasian caucus.
I have a feeling that no electoral race for decades will be as entertaining as this primary.
What really ought to give you pause, though, is that at one point this "flash in the pan loon candidate" as you put it, was elected to the US Senate.
P.T. Barnum could not have put on a better show...
or as embarrassing
Very true.
Santorum is not putting the fun in dysfunctional for the Republican party. Santo's ultraconservative ground swell will eventually force Romney to show his true colors to a very polarized Republican party. It will be interesting to see if Romney strokes the far right and disenfranchises the middle or vice versa. Whatever the case, I am getting the popcorn ready to watch the NH horse and pony show as the Republican emotions will become more heated as they become further divided into two camps. Commander Obama has to love the front line of an enemy divided...
The best thing that can happen for the Democrats is if the Tea Baggers manage to alienate the Rand Paulistas enough.
Mr. Santorum's anti-gay positions can only be described as both bigoted and nonsensical. It's difficult to believe that an educated lawyer is unable to discern a moral or analytical difference between a consensual relationship between two adults and bestiality.
Scarier still, Mr. Santorum would do away with the Supreme Court's ruling in Griswold v. Connecticut, which struck down as unconstitutional a state ban on contraceptives. Not only would a woman's right to choose to terminate her pregnancy be done away with, there would be no right for a woman to determine whether/when she decides to have a child; nor would a family (the unit that Mr. Santorum holds so dear) be allowed to determine its own composition. Hard to imagine a stance that is more invasive and anathema to personal freedom than that.
Rick Santorum and Ron Paul are the only major candidates in the GOP race who have principles. It's a shame that their principles are terrible.
Actually, the love child of Rick Santorum and Ron Paul might be the winning ticket, if s/he endorsed individual rather than family rights but recognized that a do-unto-others foreign policy doesn't make it in the world.
Am I the only one laughing at the Republicans right now? As a 16 year old, I feel confident that I could find a large number of flaws in his policies if I had an hour of discussion with almost any of them, as could anyone else.
Although, I would like to note that I do respect him for his strong views, and how he follows them, as I do Ron Paul as well. But the logic that his opinions are based on are completely flawed, and the conviction that his beliefs should be forced on the 300 million citizens of the US, speaks of a very state ran state.
If a Republican is elected, the only real question is how long until a new Arab democracy becomes more left wing than the US. I would predict within the next five years, easily.
"The next day they took the dead baby home to be cuddled by their other children."
I'm speechless. That can't be true, can it? I'm pretty sure if anyone other than a powerful politician had their children "cuddle" a corpse, they'd be getting a prompt visit from child services.
It reminds me of those poor women who posted graphic pictures of their stillborn children on the internet, accompanied by over the top memorials and pictures of angels.
I hope nobody tells you how you should grieve.
Read it again - BNRMatt isn't telling anyone how they "should" do anything; he's leaving that to moralizing politicians and religious fanatics. He just made an observation.
"they took the dead baby home to be cuddled by their other children"
'Nuff said.
By resoundingly discrediting his radically unconstitutional agenda, may this last apostle of the vestigial Roman empire actually liberate all people gripped by religious zealotry of every kind.
this is a reason o vote for him and it will be a disaster if he wins.450 sheep jump to their deaths in Turkey but more sheep jumped to their deaths in Iowa the other night. http://www.usatoday.com/news/offbeat/2005-07-08-sheep-suicide_x.htm

A "Pull-up" Diaper Went Through the Laundry! Help Needed
Ugh. I opened up the washer and started tossing things into the dryer and noticed the "gel" stuff - -EVERYWHERE. My daughter is potty trained, but I put pull-ups on her at night and sometimes during the day if we'll be in the car a long time, or sometimes for naptime. (Will be re-thinking this strategy).
Anyone been there or have any advice? I let it be overnight, but I don't think that it will dry out to a degree that will let me brush it or vaccuum it up.
So What Happened?™
Thanks so much. I tried everything suggested and finally have my washer/dryer back. I think I must have washed 4 times and dried 2 times when all was said and done. I LOVED the salt idea. I did that twice and it seemed to work the best.
"next time" or advice I would give would be to try the salt 1-2 times, then wash with detergent, then dry once clean. This was a Huggie Pullup and the gel never did dry enough - either air dry or in the dryer - that I could brush or shake it off.
I hope it's advice that's not needed : )

put the entire load back through the wash - you may have to wash and dry a couple times, but it comes off - i promise! I've been there!

Use an entire container of table salt (the kind you refill the salt shakers from, about 89 cents at safeway) in your washer with the clothes, re-run the washer cycle with the salt in there(no detergent). If you tightly packed the washer with clothes, it may take two cycles of this. Salt is a desiccant, it will chemically break the bonds holding the gel together, causing it to dissolve and be washed away harmlessly. :)
Best of luck, from a mom who's done this more times than she cares to recount!

When this happened to me, I just ran the load of laundry again with some more soap, and the stuff was gone. Good luck!
J.P. answers from San Francisco on May 02, 2008
I've used a hose to hose most of it off. My husband has shook out each piece of clothing...We've had this happen a couple of times. Let the clothes air dry and it will be easier to get off, still a pain but a little easier.
D.F. answers from San Francisco on May 02, 2008
What about putting a fan in front of the open door and blowing the air in to dry out the interior better. Another idea would be to use diaper wipes. Is there an 800# on the pull-up package? I'm sure you're not the first person this has happened to.
Let us know what worked.

I've had this happen a couple of times. What I've done is just ran the washer again with no clothes and the gel stuff just washed away. It's been a couple of months now and the washer still works well, so I guess it was safe to do. Good luck!
J.L. answers from San Francisco on August 04, 2008
I'm sorry to hear that. It happened to me before. To get rid of the gel stuff, I turned on the washer with no cloth. So the water would clean the washer. The I washed the clothes again. It worked for me. Give it a try and see what happen.
D.V. answers from San Francisco on May 02, 2008
I had the same gel stuff everywhere when I let a nursing pad go thru the washer. Just wipe up as many of the beads as you can...I wouldn't vacuum with a household vacuum as they may get stuck in the hose...maybe a shop vac? If you want you can run a small empty load to clean it out. I was able to wipe any out of the tub...Every where else seemed to have rinsed out.

The proteasome consists of a 20S proteolytic core particle (CP) and a 19S regulatory particle (RP), which selects ubiquitinated substrates for translocation into the CP. An eight-subunit subcomplex of the RP, the lid, can be dissociated from proteasomes prepared from a deletion mutant for Rpn10, an RP subunit. A second subcomplex, the base, contains all six proteasomal ATPases and links the RP to the CP. The base is sufficient to activate the CP for degradation of peptides or a nonubiquitinated protein, whereas the lid is required for ubiquitin-dependent degradation. By electron microscopy, the base and the lid correspond to the proximal and distal masses of the RP, respectively. The lid subunits share sequence motifs with components of the COP9/signalosome complex and eIF3, suggesting that these functionally diverse particles have a common evolutionary ancestry.

The world of hard money loan lenders is different than traditional bank lending, but not too different. With a little reading and due diligence, you will be able to find the hard money loan that is tailored to your needs and connect with lenders interested in your transaction.

Before you contact any lenders, browse through the various articles on this site. Be sure to look at the related articles section within each page that will guide you to additional information on a topic which may be of interest to you. Once you do, you will be ready to find a hard money lenders to suit your needs.
Use the Directories to locate Private Investors
After you've browsed the site to get a general idea of the information available, use the directory service to find hard money lenders to contact. You can search for a lender by location, by loan type, or by a keyword (e.g. construction loan, bridge loan, rehab loan or land loan).
Contact Hard Money Money Lenders
Contact one or more of the specialized hard money lenders in our lists and present your hard money loan scenario. When you make contact, you will often be speaking with the principal owner or manager of the firm who will be very knowledgeable and helpful about what is and is not possible with regards to your hard money loan.
Select from one of the Hard Money Lenders
Interview one or more lenders and find someone with whom you feel comfortable and who is familiar with your type of request. The lender will likely want to meet with you, come to your property location and have you complete a loan application in order to determine if they can assist you. Rehab lenders in particular will want to value the property as it is, in addition to the value as it is repaired.
Read Articles in Detail
Go back through the private money lending guide site as you go through the hard money loan application process. Articles and tips that may not have seemed relevant to you when you were first browsing the site will contain important information which may benefit you in negotiating the best terms and selecting the best hard money scenario.
