On my last solo record I wanted to explore musical backyards of friends of mine in different parts of the musical world. It was as much a physical as a musical journey away from home. On So Lets Go, folks will hear much more stuff from my backyard and all the traditional and Celtic influences I grew up with, married with the most contemporary collaborators out there. A non-traditional marriage for Doyle was writing his first book simultaneously with the album, the best-selling memoir Where I Belong, released last month.
His style of music ranges from light jazz to standard jazz to R&B by artists such as Antonio Carlos Jobim, George Benson, Carlos Santana, the Rippingtons, Sting, Toni Braxton, The Yellow Jackets, Whitney Houston, Miles Davis, Earth Wind & Fire, plus some of his own original material. He successfully blends his electric and acoustic guitars to create an atmosphere that is pleasing to audiences ranging from a cocktail environment and extending to that of a concert setting. Bob Castell-Blanch has recorded and performed with such artist as Narada Michael Walden, Sister Sledge, Stacy Lattisaw, Pete Escovedo, Sheila E., Carl Carlton, Ammi Stewart, Wayne Wallace, The PHDS and many others. He currently is actively involved in production work and song writing in his recording studio at his home as well as performing live throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.

Mari Mack is featured guest tonight, teaming up with the All-Stars for this edition of The Wednesday Night Ramble at the historic Empress Theatre in downtown Vallejo. The All-Stars are Don Bassey on bass and vocals, Mike Emerson on keyboards, Matt Silva on guitar, and T Moran on drums.
Mari started singing as a toddler, indoctrinated with love for jazz and big band by her father; blues, rock and r&b from her older siblings. Before the age of 18, she was paying her dues, singing rock, r&b and blues in clubs all over the NY area. After a post-gig auto accident that totaled her car and left her without a scratch, she thanked her lucky stars and took it as a sign to make a change in her lifestyle. "I was very lonely, my family was fractured and my mom lived out in San Francisco, so I packed my bags and headed out west. I figured that I would just stay there for a few weeks and then head down to LA, but fate had other plans."
She's been in Northern California ever since, continuing to pay her dues, singing soul and blues in North Beach and all around the Bay Area - interspersed with day jobs and school. All attempts to "get out of the music business" have failed, but Mari always succeeds in moving people and making new fans.
As good as she sounds in recordings, you really don't get the full effect until you see her work her magic on stage.
"And OMG, Mari Mack torched the paint off the walls. Soooooo good." Deborah Grabien, (The Sound Field)Contact: Historic Empress Theatre 330 Virginia Street, Vallejo 707.552.2400 Cost: General Admission: $7 - $9 at the door

Youthful, exuberant and beyond talented, this group, based out of the rolling foothills of Sacramento comes back to Napa for an evening of originals and covers that speak of classic rock influences from Jerry Lee Lewis to The Stray Cats...you'll even pick up a little 80's era Michael Jackson in there too!

Wayne Catania as Jake is an established and respected musician, actor, and creative writer with a career spanning four decades. In the late 1970s, Waynes resemblance to the late, great John Belushi opened the door to showcasing his own formidable acting and musical talents onstage and onscreen. Joining ACTRA as a character actor, he was cast in numerous feature films, television shows, and international advertising campaigns. Waynes charismatic and animated physical style were instrumental in forming a persona that now complimented his achievements on the live music stage. All of this has culminated in the opportunity to be cast as Jake Blues in the Classic Blues Brothers Stage Showa part that Wayne is very specifically qualified for and passionate about and which is, in reality, the pinnacle of his lifes work. Over the past fifteen years, Wayne Catania has been the face and personality of the immortal Jake Blues, touring the continental US and Canada with both Official Blues Brothers Revue. Wayne has recently worked with Kieron, Judy Belushi Pisano, and Anne Beatts (Saturday Night Live, Square Pegs) to write the pilot for a TV show based on the further adventures of Jake & Elwood Blues.
Kieron Lafferty as Elwood Blues began a career as a musician, playing in the Toronto blues/rock circuit where he gained a solid reputation for his soulful vocals and melodic harmonica lines. Originally from Toronto, Canada, Kieron Lafferty was influenced by legends like Sam & Dave, Credence Clearwater Revival, and The Doors who played at his fathers night club.
As an actor Kieron has had roles in a number of films including The Stem, by Alan Royal, and Synchronicity, a rockumentary by Bob Connolly. Venturing into musical theatre in 1998, Kieron joined the cast of the award winning Las Vegas show Legends in Concert as Elwood Blues. The Blues Brothers act evolved beyond the Las Vegas show rooms and together with his stage partner Wayne Catania (Jake) they starred in the Blues Brothers Revival, a musical written by Victor Pisano and staged in Chicago in 2004. Since that time, their Blues Brothers act has toured extensively across the US, Canada and Australia, and they are currently touring in The Official Blues Brothers Revue produced by Judy Belushi Pisano and Dan Aykroyd, with Musical Director Paul Shaffer. In addition to his stage work, Kieron also puts his extremely versatile vocal ability to work in commercials, narration and animation.
Over the years Ozomatli has become the ultimate jam band, pulling together the strands of creativity into a unique rhythmic machine. And learning to live together, like the city they represent, has made their music even stronger. Weve worked hard to create a space for ourselves, our own place in the sun, so to speak, said guitarist and composer Raúl Pacheco. Were coming out with this new record to remind people that we still care about making new music.
A recurring theme of PLACE IN THE SUN is how the band has learned to deal with lifes responsibilities, struggles, and raising a modern family. (Asdru) Sierra says Brighter was written to convey the importance of showing his kids the way through rough patches in life. In fact, the collaboration with Stewart came as a result of the two experiencing fatherhood together. We met about 12 years ago-- our kids were in the same preschool--and weve been friends ever since. Sierra and Pacheco in particular both feel strongly about balancing parenthood with the rigors of recording and being on the road. Sierra says he wrote the breezy ballad Only Love for his wife, who stood by him through their years of marriage.
This album is about growth, as a man, and a father, said Sierra. But were still striving for that world sound, the real touch with Latin, and hip-hop and everything else were doing. One of the albums most powerful songs, Burn It Down, offers a significant clue to the bands past, present and future. Evoking Ozos stubborn idealism, the song suggests that battles can be won or lost, but sometimes the best thing is to let it all go and start fresh. The idea behind that song is that sometimes theres a point where you just have to burn it down, let it go and move on, said Pacheco. The tune was inspired by North African guitarists like Omar Moktar Bombino and its the liveliest track on the album. The Band in a room with the record button on! The title track, Place in the Sun, is a garage-rock homage that pushed them all to think about what the band has accomplished. I thought, what does it really mean to create your space in this world? Pacheco asked, and together, the band found the answer. For us it means the work it takes, the struggle it takes and the joy we had once we got it.

Remember that mix tape your friend made you way back when - the one that's etched in your soul? Martin Sexton's new album Mix Tape of the Open Road is that musical cross-country trip, blazing through all territories of style, as you cruise through time and place. This record is a charm bracelet of twelve gems all strung together with the golden thread of what Rolling Stone calls his "soul marinated voice." Sexton will perform tunes from Mix Tape as well as your favorite Martin classics on this tour.
This high energy 4-piece band is comprised of seasoned world-class musicians, two of whom (including Bernard) were named West Coast Blues Musicians of the Year by the Bay Area Blues Society. The band boasts a strong repertoire of blues, soulful R&B, fast-paced swing & jump blues styles, and even a little zydeco for the Cajun 2-steppers. The band is led by the dynamic Bernard Anderson on tenor and baritone saxophone and lead vocals. Bernard has been compared favorably with the great Jr. Walker (and The All-Stars).
Recently named West Coast Blues Saxophone player of the year by the Bay Area Blues Society, he has toured worldwide with the likes of Charles Brown, Taj Mahal, Lowell Fulsom, Mary Wells, John Handy, Carla Thomas, Faye Carol, Sonny Rhodes, Jimmy McKracklin, Maxine Howard, Al Wilson, Joe Henderson, Johnny Talbert and Frankie Lee. In 1997, Bernard was featured on his own album, "Yes There Is A Doctor In The House".
As an in-demand session player, Bernard has recorded albums with Queen Ida, Taj Mahal, Sonny Rhodes, Maxine Howard, Johnny Talbert and Beverly Stovall.
When we think about Latin Rock, we usually imagine Hispanic or South American artists. However, San Francisco is a diverse city that it is not surprising to find a group that performs music other than their own. For the group Dakila, mixing the latin beat with Filipino flair worked well for them.
I am David Bustamante, one of the original members of Dakila. After many years of requests by different organizations and fans to bring the music of Dakila back, I respectfully felt compelled to bring the band back together. This website is to help promote our upcoming performances, to connect with our fans and supporters of it's music worldwide that began in 1971.

Another stickfigure animation with pointless fighting and no plot what so ever just for your entertainment. Two stick figures (Tman & Miccool) are surronded in the forest where they have to battle it out with intriguing techniques to escape.
We worked on this for a few months and finally decided to complete it not to long ago. We worked pretty hard on this and it turned out succesfully! The music is Mute by Blaqk Audio and sounds are from ShiftLimits (mostly from Pepper).
Shiftlimits is really revolutionizing the stick-world. This is definitely in my top 5 animations period. I watch it all the time. The music was great and all the effects were amazing. I <3 all of it. I wish to see more.

Activities: Attendance
Maintained by Dan Marsden
A plugin that allows an attendance log to be kept. - includes an optional Block for easy access to relevant functions.
Moodle 2.6
The attendance module and block are designed to allow instructors of a course keep an attendance log of the students in their courses. The instructor will setup the frequency of his classes (# of days per week & length of course) and the attendance is ready for use. To take attendance, the instructor clicks on the "Update Attendance" button and is presented with a list of all the students in that course, along with 4 options: Present, Absent, Late & Excused, with a Remarks textbox. Instructors can download the attendance for their course in Excel format or text format.
Only the instructor can update the attendance data. However, a student gets to see his attendance record.
This plugin is part of set Attendance.

- Thu, Nov 20, 2014, 5:48 AMHI Stephen, there was an issue with the upgrade scripts between the different plugin versions - I've just re-published all plugins for 2.4 and higher to prevent this - if you grab the latest version it should sort that for you. Thanks!
- Fri, Nov 21, 2014, 2:43 PMdear Dan, can you please help me. I want to add students id in the list of students when taking attendance.
- Mon, Nov 24, 2014, 6:09 AMHi Deepak, You might be able to achieve what you want by going to admin > users > permissions > user policies and setting the "show user identity" option to include the students idnumber but that will change a number of reports within Moodle.
If that doesn't work and you are looking for development support you could ask for help in the forums or contract a developer or Moodle Partner to help further. - Tue, Nov 25, 2014, 7:01 PMI have the latest version of the attendance module installed and it has been running smoothly until today. When ever I click on the individual students to get their individual attendance report I get a duplicate records.
Please Help - Wed, Nov 26, 2014, 5:32 AMHi Kartheek - please make sure you have the latest version installed - this sounds a lot like this issue which has already been fixed:
https://github.com/danmarsden/moodle-mod_attendance/issues/3 - Thu, Dec 11, 2014, 6:12 AMHi,
I'm running moodle 2.6.6. Got the latest version (2014022803). Whenever I click on Attendance in one of my courses I get "Internal Server Error" - Fri, Dec 12, 2014, 5:17 AMHi Manuel - I haven't seen that before, can you check your server error logs to see if any other more specific information is provided? - you could also try elevating your debugging levels:
https://docs.moodle.org/en/Debugging - Tue, Dec 16, 2014, 12:13 AMHi Dan.
Server logs doesn't show any error and debugging doesn't show any relevant message. - Tue, Dec 16, 2014, 3:54 AMHi Manuel, I can help any further without more information sorry - I can't reproduce this and there isn't enough information here for me to diagnose. If you manage to get any more detailed error message reporting let me know.
- Mon, Jan 26, 2015, 6:26 AMHello:
First, thank you for this very useful module! Second, the Attendance Report page has a table layout and readability problem, especially when viewed in the Student role. Present across Firefox, IE, Chrome, and Safari browsers for PC. Have mod_attendance version 2014112001 installed in Moodle 2.7.
When viewed in an Administrator or Teacher role, the Attendance Report columns Date and Time are too narrow to easily read their content while the columns Type and Description are excessively wide.
When viewed in Student role, the Attendance Report columns Date, Status, and Remarks are only one character wide (very difficult to read) while the column Description occupies 80% of the table width.
Is there an easy CSS style sheet fix to these table column width problems? Thanks! - Mon, Jan 26, 2015, 6:42 AMIs there any way to get a resume report that shows only a resume of all sessions including a kind of percentage based on the grades of the acronyms?
- Mon, Jan 26, 2015, 8:40 AM@Stephen, I haven't seen that particular issue before - if someone else provides a patch that improves this I'd be happy to add it to the codebase. It would also be great if you could take a screenshot of the issue and add a bug with the details here:
@Antonio I'm not exactly sure what you are looking for there - feel free to create a bug in github with a mockup of what you are looking for - see the following issues for mockups of other reports people have requested but have not been implemented at this stage:
https://github.com/danmarsden/moodle-mod_attendance/issues/64 - Wed, Jan 28, 2015, 6:32 AMHi Dan,
I sent you a pull request with a proposed code for a summary report. It's similar to the regression relative to Moodle 1.9 mentioned on
https://github.com/danmarsden/moodle-mod_attendance/issues/38 but without sessions details. In fact it adds two percentage columns, one relative to the partial grade and another relative to the max grade. - Tue, Feb 3, 2015, 12:56 AMHello all,
I installed attendance module in moodle 2.8 version and I got this error - " String [export,mod_quiz] is deprecated. Either you should no longer be using that string, or the string has been incorrectly deprecated, in which case you should report this as a bug. Please refer to https://docs.moodle.org/dev/String_deprecation " . It would be much helpful if anyone Could resolve this issue. Thank you. - Tue, Feb 3, 2015, 4:59 AMHi Sirisha, I pushed a fix for that into the github repo last week - feel free to get the latest code from there. I'll update the version in the plugins db sometime soon.

Bond referendum vote comes up short
The future of students in the West Fargo School District was in the voters' hands Tuesday as polls opened for the much publicized bond referendum.
Now, at 140 votes short, it looks like the district is back to the drawing board.
With only 57.4 percent of the 60 percent yes votes required, school board members and district officials will have to figure out different ways to deal with overcrowding in the classroom.

Her Parents Are Juggalos!
- 444 Replies
Here's a pic of the dad from this morning.
It's really..really weird to me that you snapped a pic of the Dad.
I try not to judge, but Idk..I used to love ICP and knew a lot of "juggalos". Many of them are great people and mature adults..But many of them are questionable. I'd want to get to know them and find out how much the Juggalo thing spills over into their family life (like letting the kids listen to the music etc). It's just like any other family though..I like to know the kind of people my kids are around, regardless of their music choices.
Instead of judging them, maybe get to know them. I have a few friends that are Juggalos and they are some of the nicest people you could ever meet.

Reins? So you learn something new every day! My hunter trainer told me that in Hunters, the shiny buckles on the reins by the bit are supposed to be facing in, towards the horse's mouth not out where the judge can see them...so I need a new pair of braided Havana brown reins, any suggestions? ;) Posted via Mobile Device |
I guess I thought that ALL english reins buckled to the inside, but here are an inexpensive pair: Silver Fox Laced Reins - Statelinetack.com I suggest inexpensive bc reins can be UBER-expensive, and you can cry when your horse breaks them. These have a hook instead of a buckle. I have a few pairs like this that are over 20 yo. BTW, I have a few pairs of English reins that buckle outside, too, just didn't think that was common. http://www.statelinetack.com/item/si...reins/E002570/ THIS set shows the hook better, when you look for a zoom view. |
The bit is supposed to look like it is sewn to the bridle, which it was years and years ago. Hence no buckle showing, and the reasoning behind those funny contraption hook things, always turned to the inside, on the headstall and reins of English bridles. |
Ah thanks for the history lesson!! :-) Posted via Mobile Device |
Wow those silver fox look surprisingly good quality even at that price point!! Posted via Mobile Device |
Wait what do you mean? Wouldn't they be inside out if I turned them around? Hmmm they're in my basement waiting to get cleaned right now, I'm going to go grab them... Posted via Mobile Device |
I'm thinking they are just on there backwards. Unless they are made funny. I think all english reins are made the same but I could be wrong... but I'm wondering if they are just on backwards... |
2 Attachment(s) Well I took another look and they're just made that way...if I turned them around, the slightly more unfinished looking side would be out and the buckle that holds the 2 reins together at the top (by your hands when you're mounted) would be facing my horse's back...here is how they are set up now: |
DRAT I was hoping for an easy fix! Oh well, those $15 braided reins don't look too bad and you can never have enough reins around!! ;-) |

How to Bypass iPhone Passcode
Four Methods:iOS8iOS 6.1iOS 6.1.3 (iPhone 4)iOS 4.1
This article will tell you the easiest way to bypass the iPhone passcode. This method takes a little bit of practice, and you still won't be able to access much beyond contacts and call history, but it's a start.
Method 1 of 4: iOS8
1Turn the phone on. Note that this method will only work if you have allowed Siri to work on the lock screen.Ad
2Click and hold the Home button to activate Siri.
3Ask Siri something. From the lock screen, you can view Notes, Recent Calls, Post to Facebook or Twitter, or send a message.
4To turn this setting off, go to Settings --> Passcode -->Siri, and toggle it to off.
Method 2 of 4: iOS 6.1
1Turn the phone on and go to the Emergency Call screen.
2Hold the Power button down long enough to bring up the power off slide screen.
3When the power off slide screen appears, hit "Cancel."
4Dial a three-digit emergency call number, such as "112," without letting the call connect. Hit the end button before the call connects. This is very important. If you let the call connect, you're going to attract a lot of unwanted attention.
5Put the phone into Standby by hitting the Power button.
6Turn the phone back on again by hitting the Power button.
7Hold down the Power button for approximately three seconds, hitting the Emergency Call button immediately before the phone brings up the power off slide screen. This will take some practice to get right. If you are brought to a black screen, you are either holding the Power button slightly too long or your timing is otherwise slightly off. Keep holding down the Power button.
8Continuing to hold the Power button, navigate around your phone to view your contacts and call history. You cannot do much in this mode. What you can do is:
- Make calls
- View call history
- View and edit contacts
9Try this trick if you don't want to keep holding the Power button while you navigate through the phone. Take a screenshot while simultaneously removing your hand from the Power button. Do this by hitting the Home button and listening for the shutter sound.
Method 3 of 4: iOS 6.1.3 (iPhone 4)
1Turn the phone on by hitting the Power button.
2Before navigating to the passcode screen, hold down on the Home button to activate the Voice dial command.
3Say a command, such as "Dial 123."
4As soon as the phone starts dialing, quickly eject the SIM card on the right side of the phone. You can do this with a paperclip.
5Access the phone's contacts and pictures, if desired. Because the SIM card is ejected, you won't be able to make any calls, but you will be able to look through pictures (by adding pictures to a contact) and sort through contacts.
Method 4 of 4: iOS 4.1
We could really use your help!

Letters: Reporting Abuse, Finding Personal Renewal
NPR's Brian Naylor reads from listener comments on previous show topics, including a recommendations for places to find personal and artistic renewal, and the reasons some people do — or do not — report sexual abuse.
Copyright © 2011 NPR. For personal, noncommercial use only. See Terms of Use. For other uses, prior permission required.
It's Tuesday, and time to read from your comments. When we talked to author P.J. O'Rourke about his new book "Holidays in Heck," many of you offered suggestions of where P.J. should go next. Wu Nyen Proul(ph) in Franklin, Kentucky, wrote: Visit Easter Island. It's such a humbling experience to stand before the Moai; sleep to the sound of waves; pure, unpolluted air; and great fish. Even a 4G iPhone can't get a connection. You and your family will enjoy what it's like to live without the Worldwide Web - these days, something one can only imagine.
Photographer Annie Leibovitz joined us to discuss her new book of photographs, "Pilgrimage," and her journey around the world to take photos of the places and things that brought a sense of personal and artistic renewal. We asked you to share your places of renewal, and Glenna Auxier from Gainesville, Florida, wrote: The mountains of North Carolina - Asheville and Boone - are like magic to me. I breathe better, sleep better, and I just feel a satisfaction that's not the same in the flatland. In Florida, I live on the Earth. In North Carolina, I feel I am in the earth. It's both physical and spiritual. I can't really explain it, but it's very true.
Following the allegations of sexual abuse at Penn State, we discussed why people are often afraid to come forward when they suspect abuse is occurring. Holly Mullen from Salt Lake City, Utah, sent this email: I just started a new job as director of a nonprofit rape recovery center. I do not have a lot of social work experience, but I know this: I wish every person who ever hesitated, or might hesitate, to report child sexual abuse could spend a few hours in our waiting area. We serve male and female victims of sexual assault over the age of 13. Many of them visit us years, even decades after being abused and not believed, often when they were young children. The repercussions and ripple effect in society of not reporting are huge, and painful. Please report.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Without Ray, Argonauts count on Collaros to lead way
MISSISSAUGA, Ont. -- The Toronto Argonauts are Zach Collaros's team for the foreseeable future.
Collaros takes over as the starting quarterback after Argos coach Scott Milanovich dropped a bombshell Thursday, announcing incumbent Ricky Ray is out for approximately six weeks with a shoulder injury.
Ray, 33, was injured in the first quarter of Toronto's 35-14 home loss to Calgary on Friday. After throwing the ball away, a scrambling Ray extended his right arm to brace his fall upon being hit by Stampeders defensive lineman Charleston Hughes.
"Ricky has a partial tear (in) a muscle in his shoulder that's called the teres major, Milanovich said. "I've been informed that's not part of the rotator cuff.
"He's going to be out approximately six weeks. It could be a couple of weeks less or a couple of weeks more depending on he responds to his rehab."
The teres major muscle is located in the back of the shoulder. It helps rotate and extend the arm and damaging it causes pain in the back of the shoulder, back and upper arm.
Fortunately, Ray won't require surgery. But Toronto (5-3) -- which tops the East Division ahead of Hamilton (4-4) and Montreal (3-5) -- will be minus its offensive catalyst for an important stretch that includes a home-and-home series with the Alouettes and a western road trip to Regina, Calgary and Edmonton before hosting the arch-rival Ticats on Oct. 4.
"Pressure is what you make (of) it," Collaros said. "As long as we're prepared as a team and I'm prepared I think we all feel comfortable out there.
"We have a big home-and-away series with Montreal... we just have to get after it this week and be ready."
Ray missed three late-season starts last year with a knee injury before returning to lead Toronto on its Grey Cup march.
"Hopefully we get a similar result," Milanovich said. "It's part of the game, there's injuries in the sport of football and I have faith Zach, Trevor (Harris) and Josh (Portis) will go out there and win games for us.
"Obviously it's the quarterback and it's a different piece of the puzzle you have to replace but all teams prepare for this."
The six-foot, 216-pound Collaros is anxious to be Toronto's starter for the foreseeable future.
"It's not a good thing that had to happen under these circumstances," he said. "But I look forward to leading this team these next few weeks."
Collaros certainly has big shoes to fill. Ray has completed 148 of 189 passes (78.3 per cent) this season for 1,824 yards with 15 TDs and no interceptions. Ray was especially sharp in his four last starts, completing 69 of 79 passes (87.3 per cent) for 907 yards and nine TDs before his injury.

The University Core Curriculum consists of a minimum of 33 credits, selected from the following eight areas of study:
Students are responsible for keeping track of their progress through the Core Curriculum. It is strongly recommended that students complete lower division Core Curriculum requirements by the beginning of their junior year. Requests for substitutions, waivers and exceptions must be made before the senior year. It is also strongly recommended that students meet with their academic advisor each semester before registering for classes. Classes completed at the university or at any NSHE institution to satisfy Core Curriculum requirements must be taken for a letter grade.Students who change their major must choose the catalog of the year of the latest change of major or the year of graduation. The university Core Curriculum requirements, however, are established at the time of the student's admission and enrollment in a regular degree-seeking program at the University of Nevada, Reno.
Competence in writing and mathematics is foundational to success at the university. Therefore, it is the policy of the University of Nevada, Reno that all degree-seeking students must be continuously enrolled in appropriate pre-Core or Core mathematics and English courses until the University Core Curriculum mathematics and English requirements are completed. For further information, contact your college advisement officer, the Advising Center, or the Office of Admissions and Records.
Each student's initial placement in first-year English courses will be based on ACT/SAT test scores.
*Honors level
Students who complete ENG 102 will satisfy the Core Curriculum requirement. Normally, students take ENG 101 during their first semester at the university and ENG 102 during the second semester. Students whose college entrance examination scores place them into ENG 100I may take this course by itself as a prerequisite to ENG 101 or they may take this course in combination with ENG 105 and ENG 106 as a prerequisite to ENG 102. Students who need extra practice in writing skills take ENG 098 before registering for ENG 101. NOTE: for degree programs including 0 elective credits, taking either ENG 100I by itself or the full ENG 100I, ENG 105 and ENG 106 combination to satisfy the ENG 101 prerequisite for ENG 102 will increase the total hours required for the degree.
Placement scores do not always reflect appropriate English placement. If you believe your test scores do not accurately reflect your writing skill level, you may require an alternative placement evaluation. In Core Writing, we recognize that your actual writing, not just your test score, may best determine individual placement. For complete alternative placement process instructions, please go to the Core Writing placement web page at http://www.unr.edu/cla/engl/cwp/student_resources/course_placement.htm or come by the office in FH 131, or call (775) 784-6709.
International students must complete ENG 114 and any prerequisite.
ENG 100I--Composition Intensive (3 credits) AND ENG 105--Critical Reading (1 credit) AND ENG 106--Editing for Style (1 credit) OR ENG 101--Composition I (3 credits)
ENG 102--Composition II (3 credits)
Students should review the Core Mathematics section in the program description for their major before selecting a course from the list below. Students should consult with college or program advisors before enrolling in Core courses.

Students satisfy the mathematics requirement by completing one of the core mathematics courses identified here. The mathematics requirement is centered around three principles. First, students should have a basic education in mathematical skills and concepts; second, students should take other courses that utilize these skills and concepts; and third, learning how to learn is one of the most important things for students. Math placement information is available in the current class schedule and http://www.unr.edu/mathcenter/placement.html
* Must also complete MATH 126R with a C- or better, or achieve satisfactory score on placement examination to receive core credit. See class schedule for more information.
** The two semester sequence, MATH 126R and MATH 127R , also satisfies the MATH 128 requirement. See the class schedule for more information.
NOTE: In regards to MATH 127R and above, sequencing rules in effect for many Math courses prohibit students from earning credit for a lower numbered Math course after receiving credit for a higher numbered Math course. Sequencing rules are included in the course descriptions of applicable courses.
Students should review the Core Natural Sciences section in the program description for their major before selecting courses from the lists below. Students should consult with college or program advisors before enrolling in Core courses At least one course must be taken from Group A. The second course may be taken from either Group A or Group B. All core natural science courses include significant mathematical content. Students should complete the previously listed mathematics requirement (or have a mathematics placement score qualifying them for calculus) before they take core courses in natural sciences. Another option is to be concurrently enrolled in MATH 127 or higher, as well as in any core natural science course. Individual exceptions to this rule may be made at the discretion of the instructor. All natural science courses taken for core curriculum credit must include appropriate laboratory experiences.

Students should review the Capstone section in the program description for their major before selecting Capstone courses. Students should consult with college or program advisors before enrolling in Core courses.
Students should take the last two courses in the University Core Curriculum during their senior year. The pair of required capstone courses build upon the core curriculum and courses in the student's major. The courses deal with ethical and substantive issues, problems and themes that affect the world community; they offer an analysis of different cultures and traditions, or issues relating to science and society. It is recommended that students complete all other Core Curriculum requirements, including the Core Humanities sequence, prior to enrolling in capstone courses. Students who have not successfully completed ENG 102 and CH 201 may not enroll in Capstone courses.
At least one capstone course must be taken outside the department of the student's major. (Students in ABET-accredited engineering programs may take both capstone courses in the major.) Capstone courses are identified each semester in the class schedule. Students with questions about the appropriateness of a particular capstone course should see their advisor.
NOTE: Students who have satisfied ALL requirements to graduate with a dual major have satisfied the Capstone requirement for both majors if they have satisfied the Capstone requirement for one of the majors. If the student retreats to the pursuit of a single major, then the original Capstone policy applies and at least one Capstone course must be taken outside the major department.
Students should review the Diversity section in the program description for their major before selecting a Diversity course. Students should consult with college or program advisors before enrolling in Core courses.
A student may meet the diversity requirement either (1) by completing a diversity course, or (2) successfully completing (for credit) a university sanctioned study abroad course of at least five weeks duration. Designated diversity courses have as their primary focus a topic related to non-western cultures or to excluded groups within western culture. Designated diversity courses that are used to fulfill other core curriculum or major/minor requirements automatically meet the diversity requirement. Diversity courses are identified each semester in the class schedule.

Not only does Project Open Hand provide invaluable "nutrition with compassion" for well over 3,000 people who have limited social services available to them and are in need of comfort; POH also takes good care of their hundreds of volunteers who are integral to providing these services.
I was fortunate to meet many of these volunteers at Project Open Hand's annual volunteer appreciation party. The theme this year was a Sock Hop. What fun!
I volunteered to help serve food (mini burgers, mini grilled cheese with tomato soup cups and lots of other goodies) while other event volunteers served rootbeer floats - true soda-jerk fashion, adult bevies and/or engaged the crowd in good Fifties style fun.
I will absolutely support this event again. Meanwhile I'm working on getting a crew of volunteers together from my place of work to support Project Open Hand's mission of providing sustenance coupled with compassion and respect.
I volunteered for Project Open Hand's volunteer appreciation "Sock Hop"!

Culdcept Saga was one of the games on display at Namco Bandai's recent press event. The game is the latest entry in the successful series that mixes card-battle and board game elements into an addictive package. We've been eager to get an update on the title since we saw it last year at Tokyo Game Show. With the game having already been released in Japan at the end of last year, we've been curious as to just when it's going to hit the states. Well, the good news is the work-in-progress version of the game was looking and playing as good as ever. The bad news is the game is still a ways off from a US release. The holdup is localization; Namco Bandai is going through and polishing up all the text in the game--which is a pretty wordy affair, thanks to the various descriptors used for the more than 400 cards in the game.
For those not familiar with the series, the Culdcept games have been around for nearly 10 years. The first title in the series debuted on Sega's Saturn system and made subsequent appearances on the PlayStation, Dreamcast, and PlayStation 2. However, like many of the more esoteric Japanese-developed titles, it hasn't had much exposure outside of Japan. The series' stateside debut was in 2003 with the simply named Culdcept for the PlayStation 2, which became a cult classic.
The franchise's appeal lies in its mechanics, a unique mix of Monopoly-style board gaming and Magic: The Gathering-style card battling. Your goal is to venture round the squares on boards of varying configurations and earn a set amount of "magic" by taking over squares and battling your foe. Once you earn the required amount of magic, you'll need to reach the castle square on the map to win the match. This basic concept is fleshed out with card battles, which form the heart of the action. The battles are basically a variation on rock-paper-scissors, with you trying to match or best the cards your opponent throws at you. Cards come in one of three types: creatures, items, and spells. Within each category you'll find a wealth of subtypes that include modifiers, such as elemental attributes, that all come into play during a fight. Though it may sound complicated, it's not once you get your in-game primer on the fundamentals.
The game will feature two main game modes for you to cut your teeth on, an offline story mode and a multiplayer mode that lets you take on up to three friends online or offline. The offline story mode will send you off to rescue a damsel in distress and will feature multiple endings. While this is pretty much the standard deal for Culdcept games, this time out you're able to create and customize an avatar for yourself. The online game will offer voice chat and let you wager cards against your opponents while fighting. The game will also offer downloadable content support and allow you to download maps to bolster the 25 already included in the game, as well as accessories to dress your avatar in.
The game's presentation, which is primarily 2D, isn't going to blow you away at first blush. However, the game's art style and 3D elements on the board give it some charm. The cards you'll use in battle feature high-res imagery and a variety of effects to reflect their various attacks, which helps spice up the presentation. The audio is still pretty innocuous but works as a solid complement to the action.
Based on what we played, Culdcept Saga is still looking like a strong title that will be worth your time when it hits. Though the visuals may not rival Gears of War, the gameplay is addictive and fun in its own way. Look for more on Culdcept Saga in the coming months. The game is set to ship this winter for the Xbox 360.

Overdevelopment, Overpopulation, Overshoot
Container City: Shipping containers, indispensable tool of the globalized consumer economy, reflect the skyline in Singapore, one of the world's busiest ports.
Topics: Republican Party, Sarah Palin, Barack Obama, Texas, News
Voting against the economic stimulus package? That's so last week. For some Republicans, there's a hot new way to show just how fervently they opposed the $787 billion bill President Obama signed into law Tuesday: pretend they're not going to take the money.
Or, at least, make a lot of noise about maybe not wanting it. A handful of GOP governors are making headlines for saying they'd rather not or maybe shouldn't take the billions of dollars the stimulus package would rain down on their states. It's the logical extension of the Republican strategy on the bill, after all; only three Republicans in the Senate, and none in the House, voted for the legislation, after the party decided en masse that the plan would put the nation on the road to socialism. If the spending won't fix the national economy, the theory goes, it won't fix the local economy, either.
But despite the protests, the governors will almost certainly wind up taking the money anyway, just as states do with federal aid all the time. Some of the states whose governors have been the loudest voices against the stimulus cash already benefit heavily from federal spending or from lucrative private use of federal land for oil. So perhaps it shouldn't be a surprise that Texas Gov. Rick Perry decided Thursday to accept the $17 billion his state has coming to it, after days of hemming and hawing about the handout. South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford, who wrote an article for the Wall Street Journal Op-Ed page in November titled "Don't Bail Out My State," did the same. They're in good company; Minnesota's Tim Pawlenty criticized the plan loudly while Congress debated it, then said he owed it to his constituents to take it. Alabama Gov. Bob Riley stepped up his criticism of the bill after announcing he would take the $2 billion his state gets from it. Republicans in the House even boasted about the bacon the bill would bring home, after engineering a unanimous vote against it. When just about every state is in a financial crunch, thanks to the collapsing economy, it's hard to hold the line and actually turn down the cash. "It's fucking stupid," said one Republican consultant in Washington. "If the money's there, they'd be nuts to not take it … If it's a question of, 'Hey, the money's going to be spent, so we might as well spend it in our state,' that's just nuts to turn it down."
Of course, in the bizarro world that is Republican politics in the age of Obama, turning down billions of dollars in federal aid might make political sense. "You could be a hero as the one guy who said no," said anti-tax activist Grover Norquist, who thinks opposing the money could help establish fiscal conservative bona fides with the GOP base. "The longer you look at this [bill], the more it smells." Republicans who don't like the stimulus plan are likely to notice the high-profile complaints this week. "Some Republican governors aren't big on federal largesse even when it helps their own constituents," said GOP strategist Mark McKinnon, who says the holdouts against the money deserve credit for standing on principle. "Pretty bold, I'd say."
But in the end, refusing the money actually comes at very little cost; a provision in the stimulus law allows state legislatures to vote to accept the cash even if the governors don't formally request it. What's playing out this week, then, among the Republican refuseniks may be more about politics than policy. Here are six of the more vocal Republicans who pretended to just say no, and the amount of stimulus money they pretended to decline.
Gov. Sarah Palin, Alaska
Show me the money: $783,786,000
You can keep your money: "Congressman Young and Senator Murkowski did their best to achieve the right balance in the bill, but in the end the majority allowed the spending to balloon and encompass support for programs that don't respond to the problem at hand." — Feb. 16
Why am I saying this? If you don't think Palin is thinking of running for president in 2012, you may be interested in buying a bridge from Gravina, Alaska, to the Ketchikan airport. She's popular with conservatives; given how unpopular she is with just about everyone else, Palin can't afford to let people get to her right on too many issues. She's already campaigned on her ability to say "thanks, but no thanks" to federal money — even if she didn't actually do it — so turning down the stimulus may be an easy political call.
Thanks for the money: "It's not fair to Alaskans to create expectations about programs that wouldn't be sustainable, so we'll need to look at the federal funding on a case-by-case basis." — Feb. 16
Does my state need the money? Unemployment is 7.5 percent and lower oil prices have meant fewer revenues for the state. Palin has proposed cutting the state budget $445 million.
Does my state already get more money from the federal government than it sends to the federal government? Yes. Alaska gets $1.84 for every dollar it pays in. Rank: 3
Gov. Butch Otter, Idaho
Show me the money: $1,014,783,000
You can keep your money: "If I were in Congress and I looked at it, someone would have to be more convincing than they have been and I probably would say no." — Jan. 12
Why am I saying this? A fiscal conservative with a libertarian streak when he was in Congress, Otter seems — unlike some others — to have few ulterior political motives for bashing the stimulus. He's almost certainly not running for president, and he doesn't appear to have any serious primary threats if he seeks reelection next year. Idahoans do like their politicians to have an independent streak, though it's unclear if they like it enough to turn down almost $1 billion.
Thanks for the money: "It will take a lot of work to get our arms around all the implications of this law. We need to make sure safeguards are in place and that every i is dotted and t is crossed. This is taxpayer money, and all of us are committed to seeing it used in the most effective and efficient way possible." — Feb. 17
Does my state need the money? Prior to the stimulus, Idaho was looking at slashing $110 million from public-school funds and an across-the-board pay cut for state employees. The state legislature will now extend its session into April to figure out how to use the federal money to avoid cuts.
Does my state already get more money from the federal government than it sends to the federal government? Yes. Idaho gets $1.21 for every dollar it pays in. Rank: 20
Gov. Bobby Jindal, Louisiana
Show me the money: $3,874,013,000
You can keep your money: "I do worry about the debt being created. I worry about the fact that our children and our grandchildren will have to pay back this debt. And I worry that many of the programs that are being called temporary aren't really temporary at all." — Feb. 10
Why am I saying this? He may say he's not running for president in 2012, but Jindal is a popular, young, non-white rising star in a party that's desperately seeking to change its image. Taking a combative public stand on an issue the conservative base cares about deeply wouldn't exactly hurt his chances. Just weeks before he declared himself out of the running, Jindal had gone on a heavily publicized tour of Iowa — not a move that screams out, "I don't want the job."
Thanks for the money: "Republican Gov. Bobby Jindal said Monday that if he were still in Congress, he would have voted 'no' on the federal stimulus bill. But he said he will review the final version of the bill for federal money for Louisiana projects." — Feb. 16
Does my state need the money? The state budget deficit for next year is now projected to reach $2.1 billion. State universities are expecting to cut their budgets up to 30 percent.
Does my state already get more money from the federal government than it sends to the federal government? Yes. Louisiana gets $1.78 for every dollar it pays in. Rank: 4
Gov. Haley Barbour, Mississippi
Show me the money: $2,327,806,000
You can keep your money: "It's not a possibility of strings being attached, it's a certainty … there may be some things that we'd be better off not to take." — Feb. 2
"A lot of this is just crazy … I'll tell you what I told [Obama] in front of 45 governors. Don't give me $400 million of one-time money and make me spend it on recurring expenses. I'm better off not to get it." — Jan. 10
Why am I saying this? It does seem odd to think the Republican Party would nominate an old Southern white guy — who used to be a lobbyist — to do battle against Obama three years from now, but stranger things have happened in politics. Barbour has a fairly active federal leadership PAC that gave more than $90,000 to Republicans all around the country during the last election cycle, and he's forbidden by state law from ever serving as governor again after — conveniently enough — January 2012.
Thanks for the money: "I've never said we were going to reject it. I have said, however, that we are going to make prudent decisions based on what's best for Mississippi." — Feb. 18
Does my state need the money? Gov. Barbour has already ordered $38 million cut from state university budgets this year and the schools expect another 10 percent cut next year. The state unemployment rate is 8 percent; White House projections say the stimulus bill would mean 30,000 jobs in Mississippi.
Does my state already get more money from the federal government than it sends to the federal government? Yes. Mississippi gets $2.02 for every dollar it pays in. Rank: 2
Gov. Mark Sanford, South Carolina
Show me the money: $2,879,104,000
You can keep your money: "I think that this is the biggest gut check we've ever had as a country on, indeed, where we go next, on a politically-based economy or a market-based economy." — Dec. 17
"A problem that was created by building up of too much debt will not be solved with yet more debt." — Feb. 8
"We're moving precipitously close to what I would call a savior-based economy." — Feb. 8
Why am I saying this? Some conservatives were disappointed Sanford didn't run for president last year; chances are pretty good he's at least considering a run next time around. (GOP gossip held that South Carolina Republican boss Katon Dawson's bid to head the national party was motivated at least in part to help Sanford win the nomination.) Sanford has even taken to the Wall Street Journal's Op-Ed page — a good place to get attention from conservative activists — to attack the stimulus twice, first with a November piece titled "Don't Bail Out My State," and then again in December with an anti-bailout article co-authored by Gov. Rick Perry of Texas.
Thanks for the money: "Being against it doesn't preclude taking the money." — Feb. 19
Does my state need the money? The state's budget has already been cut by more than $1 billion since July, and unemployment — at 9.5 percent — is the third-highest in the nation. The White House says the stimulus money would create 50,000 jobs there.
Does my state already get more money from the federal government than it sends to the federal government? Yes. South Carolina gets $1.35 for every dollar it pays in. Rank: 16
Gov. Rick Perry, Texas
Show me the money: $16,231,325,000
You can keep your money: " We're asking other governors from both sides of the political aisle to join with us in opposing further federal bailout intervention for three reasons." — Rick Perry and Mark Sanford, Dec. 2
"We need the freedom to say, 'No thanks.'" — Feb. 17
Why am I saying this? Perry is probably more worried about next year than he is about 2012; he faces a likely primary challenge from Republican Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison. He wound up taking the money, but making clear how opposed he is to federal spending will probably come in handy if he does have to fend off KBH — who, as a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee, could be vulnerable on questions of fiscal discipline.
Thanks for the money: " I might as well quit grousing about it, because it's reality now." — Feb. 17
"On behalf of the people of Texas, please allow this letter to certify that we will accept the funds." — Feb. 19
Does my state need the money? Texas doesn't face a budget shortfall for fiscal year 2009, though it may for fiscal year 2010, and its unemployment rate of 6 percent is lower than the national average. But the White House estimates the stimulus will create 269,000 jobs there.
Does my state already get more money from the federal government than it sends to the federal government? No. Texas gets $.94 for every dollar it pays in. Rank: 35

Sources: Numbers for stimulus funds to each state come from a spreadsheet prepared by the National Conference on State Legislatures. The ratio of money sent by each state to the federal government versus the amount paid in, and the ranking, is from a chart compiled by the Tax Foundation. Number of jobs created by the stimulus is based on a White House projection. Unemployment rates for states are as December 2008, per the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
