Agencies can pay up to $763,000 to contractors to cover pay and bonuses for company executives, but three senators are looking to change that. (Stock image)
A Senate effort to reduce the amount the government compensates contractor employees is continuing, and several senators are trying to get a provision regarding it into the fiscal 2013 continuing resolution and appropriations bill.
"Most Americans would be shocked to know that under current law, government contractor employees can charge taxpayers $763,029 per year for salary reimbursements," three senators pointed out to the Appropriations Committee chairwoman Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D-Md.) and its ranking member Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Ala.) in a letter dated March 6.
Sens. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.), Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), and Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) wrote the letter to convince the committee leaders that the Executive Compensation Benchmark is too high, and they should decrease the amount in their version of the fiscal 2013 Department of Defense, Military Construction and Veterans Affairs, and Full-Year Continuing Appropriations Act (H.R. 933).
The House passed the legislation March 6, and sent their bill to the Senate for consideration.
The compensation benchmark is the limit at which the government will contribute to compensating a contractor's senior executives for a fiscal year. The compensation includes the total amount of wages, salaries, bonuses, restricted stock and deferred and performance incentives. Companies can pay their executives as much as they choose, but the government currently will cover it only up to $763,029.
After an increase in fiscal 2011, that cap "is now nearly double the salary earned by the President of the United States," they wrote.
The three senators have worked over the last several years to lower the dollar amount. Some attempts were successful, others not. In the fiscal 2012 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), Congress expanded the measure to include all defense contractors under the compensation limit. Before then, the benchmark only applied to the top five executives at each firm. The expansion does not apply to civilian agencies' contractors.
In October 2012, when the debate for the fiscal 2013 NDAA was underway, good government groups urged both the House and Senate Armed Services Committees to set the benchmark at the vice president's annual salary of $230,700. The provision was in the Senate Armed Services Committee's version of the fiscal 2013 NDAA, but failed to reach the final version. Congress told the Government Accountability Office to report on the issue.
Stan Soloway, president and CEO of the Professional Services Council, came out in strong opposition to the senators' proposal, calling it "an attempt to end-run around the will of Congress."
"Sixty days ago, Congress decided that it was better to first study the effects of such an arbitrary cap before determining whether to make any changes," he said. "Much of the rhetoric on contractor compensation is intentionally misleading and reflects a stark misunderstanding of the rules and realities of today's government contracting environment."
The senators would lessen agencies' ability to access high-end skills and talent to achieve their complex missions, Soloway said.
The fiscal 2013 Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Act would have lowered the civilian agency compensation amount to $400,000, but the provision is not included in the House's continuing resolution.
Despite the efforts, nothing has passed both chambers to lower the benchmark, however.

Executive "compensation includes the total amount of wages, salaries, bonuses, restricted stock and deferred and performance incentives. Companies can pay their executives as much as they choose, but the government currently will cover it only up to $763,029".Restricting it to the President's $400,000 or the VP's annual salary of $230,700 is an interesting proposition. What I think Americans would be shocked to see is the budget the President and VP has for travel and entertainment. How about that being part of the compensation discussion...
It's about time. Government contractor executives have been "stealing" from the government for years. Finally, someone took notice.
Using salaries of Potus or VP as benchmarks is silly. It's not as if Obama is making mortgage payments on 1600 Penn and Biden is reaching for his credit card when the dinner bill comes. Their salaries are a simple token gesture to the governed and are completely independent of economic realities the rest of us face in private sector (labor supply/demand, cost of living, job qualifications, salary negotiations etc.). A healthy debate about contractor salary reimbursements seems like a good idea. But, let's instead focus on what it costs to hire and retain top talent vis a vis the private sector alternatives (K Street, Wall Street, and Silicon Valley). The VP/Potus salaries and other rhetoric only distract from a more constructive dialogue.

Integrators learn intricacies of Warp and Blend technology at recent DPI training event
Atlanta, Georgia â The ambitious expansion of the Digital Projection International (DPI) US headquarters has created numerous networking, training and demonstration opportunities in 2012. DPI manufacturerâs reps, authorized dealers, industry partners and end-user communities have recently been hosted at specific events this year, and there are plenty to attend in the near future. One such example is a recent two-day Warp and Blend training event, orchestrated and hosted by DPI with support and participation by numerous industry partners, including Scalable Display Technologies, DNP Screens, NVIDIA and Delta Displays. Dealers of the partner companies were invited to spend two days immersed in warp and blend solutions, from manufacturer-led presentations to hands-on demonstrations.
The first day and a half consisted exclusively of live training. Ken Eagle, training manager for DPI, tackled projector-oriented Warp and Blend concepts, applications and both manual and automated alignment techniques. Zach Hurvitz of Scalable Display Technologies then revealed automated Warp and Blend solutions, followed by Jesse Walsh of DNP Screens, who instructed attendees on ideal screen materials for Warp and Blend applications. Finishing out the training sessions were NVIDIAâs Doug Traill and Tom Kaye, who described their Quadro scalable visualization solutions, and Patrick Ellis of Delta Displays, who discussed commercial video wall and LED applications. An enjoyable and well-deserved networking dinner followed the training sessions.
The second day began with a Warp and Blend hands-on lab, in which each manufacturer demonstrated their Warp and Blend solutions. Attendees were given the opportunity to test these solutions in real time, with the support of manufacturer team members. This provided the attending class with a first-hand perspective of whatâs involved in designing, installing and programming simple to complex warp and blend applications. Following the hands-on demonstrations and lab, a casual open house allowed for general strategizing and brain-storming among class attendees and the participating manufacturer partners.
Feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with numerous requests calling for a regularly scheduled series of commercial-specific training courses throughout the year. Equally compelling was the partner feedback, with Zach Hurvitz commenting, âFrom the over-capacity attendee registrations to the outstanding team of partners, all signs point toward a bright future of multi-projector, edge blended displays. Scalable is pleased to have been an integral part of this class and we look forward toward participating again in the future." Jesse Walsh expressed similar sentiments, remarking that the recent training event was ââ¦an outstanding event, both well-planned and executed."

Students travel to Itasca State Park
Heart of the Lakes Elementary School second grade students took a dreary trip to Itasca State Park on May 11. It may have been raining the whole day, but they still had a good time learning about frogs and the importance of the Mississippi River. Thanks to the 549 Foundation this trip was possible for these children to see the start of the river.

Green Street - Coastin'
Artist: Green Street
Featuring: Hollywood FLOSS
Producer: Renaissance
Album: Don't Look Down
Avg Rating: 3.6 ( 14 votes )
Originally from Boston, Massachusetts but based in Brooklyn, Booth newcomers Green Street have made it their mission to push genre boundaries while retaining that classic hip-hop sound. Judging by the trio's first feature, Coastin', their patented blend of old and new should be the perfect soundtrack to the breezy spring and summer days that lie ahead. Producer Renaissance keeps it smooth and chill behind the boards, cooking up a mellow, sax-laced jazz backdrop for his crewmates' chronicles of the musician's lifestyle. Emcees A-live and Soupa, take turns on the mic, together detailing their typical workday – from the mad dash to the airport to catch a flight, to the mid-afternoon blunts, to hanging with some females who showed up for their latest gig. Topped off with the guest stylings of freestyle series alumnus Hollywood FLOSS, this head-noddable cut is sure to leave heads envious of the group's jet-setting existence, and excited for the release of their latest full-length. While I can't help you with the former, you won't have to wait long for the later; the crew's Don't Look Down LP is scheduled to hit online retailers April 11.

The post about Steph and the triplets have me wondering.
Is blood sugar dropping a bad thing? This weekend my blood sugar has been dropping and continues to drop. This morning my fasting number was in the 60's. I have stopped taking my GD medicine and am eatting whenever I get a low number. However, there is definitely a noticeable change. I have been struggling with blood sugar the entire time I have been testing, now my GD seems to be magically going away. Should I be concerned?
That is a good question and I dont have an answer! I can tell you that will really low #'s (as a diabetic) can put you at risk for passing out etc. So I would assume that it is that same for GD. You need to be really careful with sugar reading as low as in the 60's that can be dangerous!
*I took my 1 hr test on Friday, I hope to get a good report on Monday!

Miley Cyrus can't stop making news!
On Monday's edition of Live From E!, Jason Kennedy, Ken Baker, Ali Fedotowsky and Melanie Bromley discussed the latest headlines surrounding the "We Can't Stop" singer.
In addition to experiencing a wardrobe malfunction and releasing a sexy, new music video, the 20-year-old was reportedly scrapped from a future Vogue cover after Anna Wintour found her MTV Video Music Awards performance too controversial, which turned out not to be the case.
After speaking with a member of Cyrus' camp, Ken said the singer never shot photos for Wintour's publication. Instead, the former Disney star will be featured in an upcoming issue of Harper's Bazaar.

Also on today's show, the roundtable showed how much they are warming up to the Fifty Shades of Grey cast.
Despite backlash from loyal fans in the beginning, Charlie Hunnam's costars continue to praise the actor for his past accomplishments.
"Charlie's the man for the job," Maggie Siff told E! News when describing her current TV husband at the Sons of Anarchy season six premiere party. "He's really not afraid of taking on big challenges. I really think he's going to step that movie up. It's going to be exciting."

Finally, the panel took a look at Britney Spears' latest bikini shot.
As she continues making new music, the pop star showed off her fit and fabulous body while on set.
"Gonna get my tan on in the desert in between shots on the #WorkBitch set today. It's HOT out here people!!!! #desert #heatwave," the 31-year-old singer tweeted. Looking good, Britney!

Seven out of ten of the most commonly used Internet of Things (IoT) devices have "serious vulnerabilities", according to tech company Hewlett-Packard (HP).
Tests revealed 250 flaws across the devices, including privacy concerns in eight cases, weak password policies in the same number, and a lack of transport encryption in seven cases.
Daniel Miessler, practice principal at HP, said: "The current state of Internet of Things security seems to take all the vulnerabilities from existing spaces - network security, application security, mobile security and Internet-connected devices - and combine them into a new, even more insecure space, which is troubling."
Six of the devices had user interfaces that concerned the company, and the same number had troubling software or firmware, including unencrypted updating protocols.
"IoT security is not just a consumer problem," Miessler added.
"Corporations need to be looking at how their ICS (industrial control) and SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) systems fare when looked at under a similar light."
The devices investigated included a television, a home thermostat and a door lock, with most of items said to include some form of cloud service.

FWIW, I don't know how to update these files any longer either. I looked at Anduin and I see one copy in the normal spot that looks like it was put there on May 4, and there's another copy in the 'svn' subdir of the Files dir that looks like it was put there on May 7.

In a carefully crafted programme, the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) has managed to pitch Gandhi family scion and newly appointed Congress Party vice-president Rahul Gandhi against Arun Jaitley, Leader of the Opposition in the Rajya Sabha, and a seasoned politician who has also held several ministerial berths during the NDA government.
At the CII annual general meeting and national conference being held at the Ashoka Hotel here on April 4, Mr. Gandhi will be the first speaker at a special plenary session to be held at 10.45 a.m., while Mr. Jaitley will deliver the one-hour valedictory session at 4.45 p.m.
Even though the event has a line-up of other prominent speakers like Montek Singh Ahluwalia, Sheila Dixit, Bhupinder Singh Hooda, Ravi Shankar Prasad, Praful Patel, Vijay Panda and Arun Maira, it is unlikely that they will generate the same level of interest as Mr. Gandhi and Mr Jaitely. It is widely expected that both these speakers will use this national business platform to deliver political messages as India goes into an election mode.
For Mr. Gandhi, this is his first big speech on a business platform, nearly two months after he was appointed Congress vice-president in Jaipur on January 19. It also comes on the back of a statement by chief spokesperson of the party, Janardan Dwivedi, that the relationship between the PM and Congress president and UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi was unique, could not be easily replaced, and was in all probability, the ideal model for the future as well.
This will also be Mr. Gandhi's first public speech on business and economic issues at a time that the economy is suffering a slowdown and widespread industry allegations of a paralysis in governance and decision-making. A defence on these issues figured prominently in Dr. Singh's inaugural address to the CII membership on April 3.
Mr. Jaitley's speech is expected to be political for the most part, while using a national economic platform which is expected to be televised live. Speaking to The Hindu , Mr. Jaitley said, "My focus will be on the failure of the government to use good governance to create a favourable economic environment. It is the lack of leadership and consequent indecisiveness that has hurt the Indian economy and telecom is the strongest example of how a sector with demonstrably the best performance has been brought to ruin owing to a leadership deficit."
Efforts to elicit information about Mr. Gandhi's speech remained unsuccessful with most senior Congressmen and Cabinet Ministers feigning ignorance. A senior Cabinet Minister confessed, "Only Rahul Gandhi and his speech writers would know".
Mr. Gandhi faces three big challenges while delivering his speech on Thursday: First, it comes on the back of Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi's speeches at the Sri Ram College of Commerce, and more recently at the India Today conclave held in Delhi. Both of these focused on economic development and governance, which will be viewed as a benchmark by business and television audiences worldwide for Mr. Gandhi's speech on Thursday.
First big speech
Second, this will be Mr. Gandhi's first big speech on an industry platform, which will put his delivery under sharp scrutiny. He usually reads from a written script, in sharp contrast to both Mr. Modi and Mr. Jaitley, who prefer to speak extempore.
Finally, the program gives Mr. Jaitley five hours to rebut claims, promises, directions or even allegations that may be included in Mr. Gandhi's speech.
Asked whether he would take on Mr. Gandhi directly, Mr. Jaitley admitted that this would depend on the content of Mr. Gandhi's speech.
In the past, PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Congress president Sonia Gandhi have also effectively used the CII business platform to deliver political messages.

Following Williams' shock announcement that Jenson Button will be driving for the team next season, BAR boss Dave Richards has responded with a statement setting out his team's position on the controversy:
"We are absolutely astounded to hear that Jenson thinks that he is leaving BAR for Williams next season. Neither myself, nor any other member of the BAR team, has been contacted by Jenson to discuss this matter".
"Jenson is under contract with BAR for 2005, since we took up an option on his services only last month. At no time during the last few months has Jenson expressed anything other than his desire to continue working with BAR to achieve our collective goal of winning the World Championship".
"It is our intention to enforce our current contractual position with Jenson. My duty is to the 400-strong workforce which has worked tirelessly over the past two seasons to give Jenson the car he has today; and to our partners, whose unfailing support and commitment to the team has contributed to the solid structure we now have in place. Unfortunately this is now a matter for the lawyers and I have every confidence that the legal process will confirm that yesterday's announcement has not only been premature but also invalid".
The controversy looks set to run and run.

Whether Miley's trying to shed her 'Hannah Montana' persona, or just bein' Miley, either way she has had a great deal of super crazy, super sexy moments this year.
From her super sexy Cosmopolitan cover and revealing interview to her over-the-top scandalous VMA performance, there is one word that explains Miley Cyrus this year — shocking.
Miley Cyrus' Shocking Moments
This is the year for Miley. While her relationship with Liam Hemsworth has had its fair share of ups and downs this year, Miley's year has been full of shock and awe.
She landed the cover of V Magazine, wearing next to nothing. She looked gorgeous, of course, on the May issue, in unzipped, ripped jeans, and a Theyskens' Theory jacket. However the jacket was left open and the only thing covering Miley's chest was right hand!
She also took the opportunity to clear up the rumors that she and Miley had split, just because they're not spotted together every day. "I'm not home with my boyfriend all the time. We work," she told the mag. "Every week it's 'Are they broken up? because we don't see a photo of them.' I don't have time to go to Starbucks with my boyfriend every morning. I wish I did, but I don't."
Miley's Twerking Creates National Frenzy
Throughout 2013, Miley has made "twerking" her signature dance move. In her "We Can't Stop" video, she is more sexual than ever — wearing a sexy white leotard, rolling around in bed, and doing some INTENSE twerking.
She wore a teeny-tiny bikini and took her twerking to the stage (and to Robin Thicke's crotch) at the VMAs on Aug. 25, causing quite the reaction.
Then in Sept., her new video dropped. In "Wrecking Ball," she traded in that bikini for . . . well, nothing. She's completely naked, straddling a metal ball, licking a sledge hammer, and crying. Yes, all that emotion wrapped in one.
And that's not all. Click through our gallery of Miley's most shocking moments, and let us know which you think is the best?

Votto deal a coup for Reds
The 2010 NL MVP projects to age gracefully and provide excellent value
Fans of the Los Angeles Dodgers, New York Yankees and Toronto Blue Jays can now officially stop imagining Joey Votto in their respective uniforms. The National League's 2010 MVP will be staying in Cincinnati for the next decade thanks to a 10-year, $225 million extension he agreed to on Monday that will take him through the 2023 season.
One of the largest questions the Reds needed to answer last year was what to do at first base in the long term. Votto had already established himself as one of the best first basemen the franchise ever had, earning his place along Tony Perez and Ted Kluszewski with a three-year run that any player would be proud to claim. Problem is, Votto was set to hit free agency following the 2013 season, and most people assumed the Reds couldn't afford him.
Plan B involved using Yonder Alonso at first and try to land a blockbuster package in return for Votto. Cincy experimented with Alonso in the outfield in an attempt to squeeze both into the lineup, but his defense out there displays less range than a Michael Bay movie. And when the Reds sent Alonso to San Diego in the offseason as part of the Mat Latos deal, perhaps we should have seen the Votto extension coming.
So bring in the celebratory Skyline Chili; the Reds made the right decision. Alonso topped the prospect lists, but when it comes down to it, it's very hard to trade your best player and replace him with a 25-year-old first baseman who has never topped 15 home runs in a single minor league season. He may become a star in the end, but when someone wants to give you Latos for the privilege of finding out, let them.

Juventus striker Amauri is hoping he can kick-start his career with the Turin outfit after a disappointing season.

Speaking to reporters, he said: "I have never thought about leaving.
"Yes, I made mistakes last season, but I want to enjoy a great campaign this year so that I can cancel that past.
"It's been a long time since enduring such a bad season. I owe it to the fans and I want to get back to my best.
"I want to stay here and prove my value. I came here to win."

Some would say that Kelly Rowland is a fool for parting ways with Matthew Knowles, but you have to put things into perspective. At the end of the day, his other artist Beyonce Knowles is his daughter. As much as he would try to do right by Rowland, his love for Beyonce alone would mean that she comes first and everyone else comes last.
Online readers have tried to turn the split into a drama, but both Knowles and Rowland appear to have left on good terms. Both released statements shortly after it was first reported.
Matthew Knowles:
"After a very positive meeting between Kelly Rowland and myself, we have amicably agreed to end our professional relationship. My company, Music World, will continue to manage Destiny's Child as a group. As an artist Kelly has incredible talent and I only wish her the best. We will always be family first and foremost and as a dad I can only have love for Kelly."
Kelly Rowland:
"Matthew Knowles has been a positive influence in my career. I have had great success under his guidance–both as a member of Destiny's Child and with my solo projects. Although we have decided to part ways professionally, the Knowles family and the entire Music World Entertainment team will always be my family."
Fans of Rowland are happy with the split and feel that she should have gotten a new manager years ago. They say that Kelly may have a better career now if she was not held back by Matthew as he pushed Beyonce towards the A-list.
It is a bit unfair to blame Matthew Knowles on Rowland's lack of mainstream success. Kelly is a good singer, but Beyonce is a better singer and overall performer. However, one fan did comment that Rowland was a great actress and should have pursued that avenue instead of a singing career.
Matthew Knowles now manages:
- Beyonce Knowles
- Solange Knowles
- Destiny's Child
- From Above (Girl group)

Bicycles, Barking Dogs, and Organic Cows
by Sara Tucker
I love a good map, and I just found a beauty lying on the reception desk at the Three Stallion Inn in Randolph, Vermont--my hometown! I'm blown away to discover that I live in some of the best bicycling territory this side of Moab. It's all laid out in topographical detail in "White River Valley Biking Routes."
The map, which was commissioned by the inn from Map Adventures, LLC, encompasses 24 routes for all levels, on both dirt and paved roads. A sample: The 10.6-mile Organic Cow Farm loop for mountain bikes follows a snowmobile trail and a series of logging roads. Then there's a back-roads tour for hybrids that invites riders to "pick your own berries at Beebleberry Farm." But for me, the winner looks like a 40-mile ride along country roads past Floyd's Store (where my uncle and his buddies hang out), a sugar house that serves pancakes, and Ariel's Restaurant, where Brookfield residents love to bring their out-of-state guests. Not for me, though, is the Kelsey Challenge route, with its killer mountain road and its warning to "watch for barking dog (tan house on right with tall pines)."
I spent a good part of the weekend exploring the Three Stallion's own trail system, which is exquisite. Ferny forests, secluded ponds, stony brooks. We were on foot, and although the inn's 17 rooms were fully booked, we saw nary a biker nor a hiker. From September 2 to 18, the inn is offering a midweek discount (Sunday through Thursday) of 40 percent.

Amazon Cuts Kindle Fire Prices for Cyber Monday
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- While the media obsesses over Amazon's (AMZN - Get Report) move into drone delivery, which is a few years away, the online retailer works on conventional ways to get consumers to buy goods, and it's cutting prices on its Kindle Fire tablets in the effort.
Starting Sunday and continuing through Monday, Amazon customers will get $50 off the Kindle Fire HD 16GB and the Kindle Fire HDX 7-inch tablet. Both tablets will be priced at $119, and $179, respectively, while supplies last.
"The new Fire tablets are the best tablets we've ever built -- the reviews from press and the feedback from customers has been overwhelmingly positive," said Neil Lindsay, vice president of Amazon Kindle, in a press release. "We're excited to be able to offer $50 off Kindle Fire HDX 7 and the all-new Kindle Fire HD 16GB for Cyber Monday."
TheStreet recently reviewed Amazon's Kindle Fire HDX, noting it "is a vast improvement over last year's model."
In an interview with Charlie Rose of 60 Minutes Sunday night, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos continued to reiterate that Amazon's devices, namely its Kindle Fire tablets, are sold at cost in an effort to get consumers to buy more goods from Amazon.
Below is an excerpt of an exchange between Rose and Bezos regarding the Amazon business model.
Charlie Rose: So you sell this at break even?
Jeff Bezos: We sell this at break even and then we hope to...
Charlie Rose: That's a very thin margin. Jeff Bezos: It's a very thin margin. But we hope to make money when you... Charlie Rose: Sell all the stuff... Jeff Bezos:...buy books and movies... Charlie Rose: That's always been your philosophy. Jeff Bezos: Exactly. Amazon shares were lower in Monday trading, off 0.67% to $390.98.--Written by Chris Ciaccia in New York >Contact by Email.

Seattle's Olympic Sculpture Park brings art to the public realm in a dynamic integration of landscape, architecture, and urban design.
Skatepark advocates help young skaters build safe, legal sites where they can cut loose—and maybe overturn a few stereotypes.

quote:Hayden Rettig was originally expected to Baton Rouge on Saturday, but the California quarterback was held up and delayed his enrollment. When will he arrive to campus?
quote:My waaay to early prediction....he will never see the LSU Campus.
quote:Have any of these cases ever gone our way? Whenever there is a delay like this, it never seems to be a 'simple clearinghouse issue' like everyone says and the guys never make it to campus. Hope this one's different.
quote:He has surely had ample time to take care of business, paperwork, transcripts, grades etc. etc....and should be on campus already!!!
quote:Yes dad, he's supposed to be in school tomorrow. Can you please set your alarm to wake him up for class? Damn He'll be here Quit freaking out.
quote:Tweeted on Friday (1/11) he would start classes on Tuesday (1/15) and nothing since.
quote:Did he make it to class?
quote:Looks like he hasn't said anything on there in 3 days.
quote:His last tweet was on Jan 13. If this was a simple flight issue or a minor glitch etc he would have said something imo. We're fricked

The attorney for an ex-nurse found guilty of encouraging two depressed people to commit suicide is asking the Minnesota Court of Appeals to overturn his conviction on free speech grounds. Oral arguments are taking place today (WED) in the case of William Melchert-Dinkel. The southern Minnesota man was convicted last year of aiding the suicides of a British man and a Canadian woman. Melchert-Dinkel acknowledges he went online and gave the victims advice on how to hang themselves, but says he was exercising his free speech rights. Prosecutors disagree, saying First Amendment protections don't cover words that encourage another person's lawless conduct. They say the evidence shows Melchert-Dinkel's speech encouraged the victims to do something they might not have done without him.

EEE is UCI's course management system and your gateway to a variety of instructional technology tools.
UCI Summer Session offers more than 800 courses across 70 academic disciplines each summer, including a wide variety of online classes. It is composed of three different sessions:
Summer Session can help students progress towards their degrees year round, often making a difference for those who want to graduate on time or even early.
The Office of Information Technology, in collaboration with units across campus including the Distance Learning Center, will be piloting the Instructure Canvas learning management system in 2015 - 2016. This pilot will test expanding existing EEE offerings with a commercial LMS (Canvas) to address the increased call for third-party integration and other enhancements, without compromising EEE's unique functionality, capabilities, and responsiveness to campus needs.
The EEE team will continue to maintain and support the existing EEE toolset for the campus. Offering both EEE and Canvas will be a significant change for the campus and a great opportunity to increase our capacity for innovation.
Our goal is to ensure that the UCI learning community continues to have access to the best possible learning environment. The engagement and support of instructors and students will be essential in achieving this goal .
Learn more about the UCI Canvas Pilot at sites.uci.edu/canvaspilot.
Students in Ko Umezaki's music courses utilize specialized software to create and edit audio recordings. To help the students understand how to use available tools, Ko Umezaki has developed a library of very short instructional videos using QuickTime. Each clip (on average, about one minute long) showcases specific functions of the specialized software. The videos are posted on YouTube and are also easily embedded in the lecture presentations prepared using Google Slides.
For example, students in the department of Film & Media Studies utilize the unlimited space available in Drive to submit original, high-definition videos to instructors. The videos are uploaded to shared folders, which makes them immediately available for viewing by instructors and fellow students. Many of the students in Film & Media Studies also use the Google Drive App to click and drag files from their phone, tablet or computer into Google Drive.
In the course of your academic career, you will likely be asked to give a public presentation of findings or information.Your materials might include a well-crafted message, visual aids, and talking points or a script. UCI students, faculty and staff who want to rehearse a specific presentation or develop oral presentation skills can now use the Libraries' presentation studio. The studio is setup in the Multimedia Resources Center of the Ayala Science Library. You can utilize standard presentation equipment to practice with a limited audience. In addition, you can use the video camera to record your practice session for later review. Learn more on the UCI Libraries' website.
The GitHub Student Developer Pack (http://education.github.com/pack) provides students with free access to industry-standard developer tools. This system allows students to create software and web-based tools by actually developing code in a repository system.

DRS Provider Manual and Forms
Provider Manual
The DARS DRS Standards for Providers is available. Only those providers required by contract to do so must comply with these standards.
The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts converted all Texas Identification Numbers (TIN) that were based on a Social Security Number (SSN) to a new and more secure format. This change will affect sole proprietorship business owners and other individuals who had TINs based on a SSN rather than an Employer Identification Number (EIN). Others will not be affected by this conversion. If your TIN begins with a "2" followed by an individual's SSN, the Comptroller's office has converted it to a new TIN consisting of a randomly assigned number that begins with a "7." Vendors must have the correct TIN on their invoices to remain in compliance with DARS performance standards.
Vendors can find their "7" TIN by using the Texas Comptroller's online application, which will continue to utilize the provider's EIN or SSN for searches and the "Confirm Texas Identification Number" screen will provide the "7" TIN. For more information visit the frequently asked questions on the CPA's website or contact DARS accounting at 866-440-0423, option 3.
Contact the DARS DRS Standards Specialist if you have questions in the following areas:
- vocational assessment or evaluation
- personal social adjustment training
- work adjustment training
- room, board, and supervised living
- vocational adjustment training
- job coaching
- job placement
- supported employment and supported self-employment services
- post-acute brain injury services
- centers for independent living
- durable medical equipment
- vehicle modifications
Provider Forms
Provider forms associated with this manual are available in PDF and Microsoft Word formats. Instruction sheets are available for some forms, with more instruction sheets to be added later.

The Poseidon Adventure
The Poseidon Adventure
Ronald Neame, 1972
USA | USA | 117 minutes
Part religious parable, part disaster movie, all superior entertainment: an all-star cast tries to lead us to safety after their luxury liner has been overturned by a tsunami. Gene Hackman plays a doubting clergyman who leads a party of desperate, odds-playing survivors through a maze-like wreckage of flooded corridors. Starring Shelley Winters, Ernest Borgnine, Red Buttons, Roddy McDowall, and, as the hapless captain, Leslie Nielsen (who would later fondly lampoon his role in Airplane!).
"The technology and the ingenuity of survival are what fascinate us in Ark Movies, especially survival after some spectacularly dreadful sequence of events that has effectively eliminated all of the non-speaking roles and a lot of the other no-quite-anonymous actors. … The Poseidon Adventure puts the Ark Movie back where God intended it to be: in the water."

Cherimoya's texture adds to the creaminess of these frozen daiquiris, while the fruit's delicate flavor balances the zing of the lemon and rum. For a sweet presentation, dip rims of glasses in remaining lemonade concentrate, then in coarse sugar.

Cut each cherimoya half into 2 wedges. Remove seeds from cherimoya pulp; discard seeds. Place pulp in a blender. Add ice, rum, and concentrate to blender. Puree until smooth. Divide cherimoya mixture evenly among each of 8 glasses; garnish with lemon wedges, if desired. Serve immediately.
