NUI Galway to Hold Information Evening in Enniskillen
Monday, 3 March 2014
Secondary school students interested in NUI Galway are invited to an information evening in Enniskillen on Thursday, 13 March. Parents and guardians are also particularly welcome to the event which runs from 7 to 9pm in the Killyhevlin Hotel, Enniskillen, Co. Fermanagh.
The evening will begin with short talks about NUI Galway and some of the 60 courses it offers. Afterwards, current students and NUI Galway staff will be on hand at information stands to answer any individual questions in relation to courses offered by the University and about practical issues like accommodation, fees and scholarships, and the wide range of support services available to our students.
The ever-increasing popularity of NUI Galway is in-part due to a whole suite of innovative new programmes, developed in response to the changing needs of the employment market. Unique programmes include a Bachelor of Arts in Human Rights, an Energy Engineering degree which is taught in the University's new Engineering Building, Ireland's largest School of Engineering, and a Maths and Education degree aimed at training Maths teachers.
Visitors to the information evening will also get information on NUI Galway's newest degree programme, a BA in Drama, Theatre and Performance Studies, BA in Journalism, BA in Science (Physics- degree options in Applied, Astrophysics, Biomedical or Theoretical) and a Bachelor of Commerce (Gaeilge) which is brand new for 2013-14.
Caroline Loughnane, Director of Marketing and Communications at NUI Galway, said: "NUI Galway has a great deal to offer. Our own students tell us our lecturers are inspirational and challenge them to achieve their full potential. The student experience in Galway is second to none, and we want to bring a taste of that to County Fermanagh, while also providing all the practical information on accommodation, CAO points, fees, scholarships and courses. With so many courses on offer, this event in Enniskillen is a perfect opportunity for prospective students to meet current students and lecturers to see what degree might be the right fit for them."
To find out more about the information evening in Enniskillen, contact NUI Galway's Schools Liaison Officer, Gráinne Dunne at firstname.lastname@example.com or 087 2440858.

FSA and SIS
I have an EV 10.0.1 server which is currently used for Mailbox and Journaling archive and both are in one storage group and one vault store. I am in the process of introducing FSA and not sure if I should use the same vault store group with new vault store OR create a new vault store group.
I have gone through the "Planning guide" and have an idea about SIS within a group (shared . My question is what is the pros and cons of having in one group or a separate vault store group.
For what I know having the stores within a group you benefit the SIS to reduce disk space but then performance will be high.
Do I need to worry about SIS between mailbox and FSA archiving. Disk space is not much matter I am more concerns about performance or any other things that I am not aware things like indexing.M
My plan also soon or later will be using EV for Sahrepoint archiving.
I appreciate any advice on this.

IMHO Sharing = good...
But with Exchange 2010 it would appear that companies like Microsoft are moving away from that paradigm.
The trickiest part with FSA data is that if you decide on one architecture to implement under EV, and decide to change at a later time it is hard. So getting it right for your organisations need for today, and for 'tomorrow' is essential. For mailbox archiving it's 'easier' because you can move the data around later.
You don't mention sizes of the 'estate'. How many users, how many archives, what types of users, how much FSA etc....
Hi Rob,
We are on Exchange 2007. around 600 live mailboxes with just over 1000 archive accounts. Just over 5 TB of mailboxes archived data.
As for file servers we have a round 3 file servers with about 5-10 TB of data and initially we will be archiving old data so not everything. the policy is last modified is older than 2 years.
I have a separate LUNs for File archiving data so you are correct I need to get it right in the beginning.
My initial thoughts would be to have the one Vault Store Group to take advantage of OSIS. There are a few variables that are going to come into play here, such as, what are your retention needs?
You might want to have a Solution Design refresh done and have the scoping tools ran so you can get some good numbers of what OSIS could do and what your storage growth will look like.

Auf Wiedersehen
It's my last day in the US of A, and my first day on the wrong side of 25. That being said, I'm feeling a strange mixture of excitement, apprehension, sadness and pure exhilaration. I can not wait to be back in Europe, which feels more like home to me than any other place in the world.
After living in Scotland from the age of 19 to 24, I had pretty ...
Beautiful Plantation Houses
... white pillars, shutters on the windows and old rocking chairs out front. The plantation is now a national park so the home is empty but its still spectacular from the outside.
The kitchen, completely separate from the house, was the size of a modern two bedroom home. Back then it was illegal to have the kitchen inside the main house because the cooks/slaves used an open fire to cook on, meaning that kitchens tended to catch fire 1-3 times a year and it ...
Enjoying new old places
... high bridges over marshes and portions of the Charleston port. Once back on Highway 17, the turn for Boone Hall is a left at a light and there is a sign shortly before letting you know the turn is coming up.
The admission price is $20 ($18 if you have AAA like me!) and includes everything on the grounds. It pays to get there early as you want to have the spectacular Avenue of Oaks drive all to yourself for pictures and just to enjoy for a few ...
Charleston, SC - And the Lessons continue...
... a little like home as we drank Yeungling. I talked to the groom's brother and girlfriend and extracted ideas for the off the beaten path of Charleston. They recommended a lot of restaurants. By this point I am really understanding that Charleston has a great food scene. The party dwindled down to 6 and we made our way to the Coleman Public House and I drank a lovely German Wheat Beer and devoured a large portion of mussels. This trip didn't land ...
Staying Dry in the Low Country
... tasty!
We got home about 9:30 and said good bye to Chris. He had to get back since he had class in the morning.
Next morning we woke to more ugly sky and intermittent rain as we packed up to leave and head for Charleston. We got on the on the road about 9am. and about an hour into the trip we hit heavy rain. It rained pretty much the whole drive which for anyone who has driven in the rain towing a fifth wheel is pretty stressful. But we managed and as we got ...

poor quality wood
I am very disappointed with this product. I will not purchase large furniture again online. Both are not very stable and within a week the wood frame had broken.Read More
Great furniture poor leg assembly
This furniture comes with no instructions or pictures. This may seem like no big deal until you see that there are no predrilled holes or directions on which way the slanted legs should go. I went back on overstock to see if I could tell how the legs should go. They might as well as save money and not send the screws as they do not go through the wood. I ended up using nails and even then there were places that the nails would not go through. Really like the look of the furniture just very frustrated at the difficulty of assembly.Read More
Nice Set, hard to put together
Overall, the only reason I am giving this product a strong 3.9 out of say a 5, is because of the intensity which I experienced in putting on the freaking legs to the set!!! OMG!!! Each piece has a square marked off on the underside of the pieces to indicate where the legs go. However, the partical board/MDF wood that you put them into does not allow for typical use of a black & decker drill... I had to hammer a large nail in each of the spots indicated for the holes, and then by hand use a phillips screw driver.. Of course even that was like fort knox, and I have the swollen hand this morning to show for all the hard work.....6 hours later after the legs were attached, I must say the pieces look really good in our living room and I was pleasantly surprised to find that the loveseat folded back flat as well. So all in all the pieces are very functional, you just have to remain persistent with getting it put together... The previous review was correct... good luck with those legs! Whew!Read More
This set has the wow factor
This is a sofa and loveseat futon set with an ottoman. The sofa and loveseat fold flat and the arms can be folded flat or up as pictured. The loveseat arms would likely be folded flat to accommodate two average-sized adults comfortably. The bonded leather is soft and comfortable. The back of the sofa and loveseat are covered with black cloth instead of bonded leather. We found it difficult to attach the legs, but a handier person may not have such an issue. Note the legs arrive in a zippered compartment on the bottom of the pieces. Overall, I'm very impressed with this set and would definitely purchase again.Read More

Best Kid-friendly Fabric for Sofas
Finding the right sofa and loveseats that match your room, have the right look and meet your budget can be like searching for a needle in a haystack. If kid-friendly fabrics are on your must-have list, start by looking below. This article will help you find the best kid-friendly fabrics for sofas, which should repel stains and hold up to added abuse from children jumping, scooting and forgetting to remove their shoes before hopping on the sofa. Microfiber: Microfiber is stain-resistant and comes in different textures. Some microfiber weaves are smooth, like suede, and others are denser, similar to corduroy. You may clean most microfiber with water, but check the manufacturer's tag because a few types of microfiber may require cleaning with a compatible solvent. Wool: For sofas, wool and wool blends are great because of their durability. They're less prone to pilling, snagging and wrinkling than other fabrics. Plus, wool is easy to spot-clean. Vacuum this natural fabric with a hand-held vacuum attachment to remove dust. Leather: Leather is a versatile sofa fabric; it can be elegant or totally casual. Its slick surface makes cleanups relatively easy. Beware if you have pets, as little claws can leave scratch marks. Scuff-repair solutions are available, and they can keep your kids' sofa looking good for years. In addition, a quick treatment with leather conditioner once or twice a year will keep the sofa soft and supple. Vinyl: Vinyl is just as versatile as leather and often has the same smart look, but at a much more affordable price. It's easy to clean, too: just spray it with water and wipe spills away. Vinyl isn't as snuggly as microfiber, but in a playroom, it will hold up to lots of abuse. Denim: Just because a sofa is upholstered in denim doesn't mean it'll look like your worn-out jeans. Just like a comfy pair of jeans, denim is sturdy and goes with everything. In addition, denim sofas are available in a rainbow of colors to match your kids' bedrooms or playroom.

Vanilla plant wanted-site suggestions?
gilsonalApril 12, 2010
Hi all-
I've been looking around the internet for a good sized vine of vanilla planifolia to start growing. All I'm seeing are small cuttings less than a foot in length and I'd like something a bit more established. I had a tiny one and couldn't keep it happy.
Anybody have a cutting for sale or an online retailer to suggest? I'd be happy to pay for the plant and shipping if you have one!

D1 Volume 78, No. 136 50 Pages 6 Sections ONE DOLLAR Commodities face off vs. conservation By SARAH KESSESfGER kessinger@dnih/nra >$. / wt TOPEKA (HNS) - When farmers gathered at Salina Tuesday to tell a congressional panel what they'd like to see in the 2007 farm bill, some sought renewal of farm commodity subsidies. But some also suggested Congress lend more support to programs conserving soil and water. The environmental talk chimes in with a growing chorus of Washington, D.C., groups interested in expanding conservation through the farm bill. Among those voices are two former Kansans once prominent in formation of farm policy - former U.S. Agriculture Secretary Dan Glickman and former Republican Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole. At Tuesday's hearing of the U.S. House Subcommittee on General Farm Commodities and Risk Management, 1st District Rep. Jerry Moran, R-Kan., said he expects commodity supports to lose priority sta- -1 AGRIC ?Hi MEWS tus to conservation programs. "The support in Congress is least on the commodity side," Moran said after the hearing at Kansas State University's Salina campus. "There are very few members of Congress who care about farmers and much more support for conservation and environmental issues." If the House Agriculture Committee drafts a bill they consider "pro-farmer," he said, "it will be subject to people on the House floor wanting to shift that money to conservation." However, some family farm advocates watching the forum suggested that might be a better path. "By shifting support for farmers from commodity support programs to conservation programs that focus on paying farmers to protect the resource base, we protect the long- term sustainability of both the food system and the emerging energy market, as well as provide some form of a safety net or income support for farmers," said Dan Nagengast, executive director of the Kansas Rural Center.

(AP) - Tyson Fresh Meats Inc. on Friday recalled more than 40,000 pounds of ground beef shipped to Wal-Mart stores in 12 states after samples tested at a Sherman, Texas, plant showed signs of E. coli contamination. No illnesses had been reported. Springdale-based Tyson Foods Inc. said the recall is not related to contaminated ground beef distributed by California-based United Food Group LLC. The recalled products were sent to Wal-Mart stores in Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Texas, Tyson said. Wal-Mart has removed the products from its meat cases and is destroying the recalled ground beef still in its possession, officials said. Tyson recalled 40,440 pounds of ground beef, all of which had sell-by dates of June 13. The ground beef was sold in prepackaged trays that were placed directly into the meat case. The recalled products include: � 1 1/2-pound trays of Angus steak burger all natural, 85/15,6 1/4-pound patties; � 1.33-pound trays of Angus steak burger all natural, 85/15, extra thick, 4 1/3-pound patties; � 21/4-pound trays of 73/27 all-natural ground beef; and � 51/2-pound trays of 73/27 all-natural ground beef.

Police relax standards for recruits By KEN MAGUTRE Associated Press Writer Police departments around the country are relaxing age and fitness standards, forgiving minor criminal convictions and easing other requirements to relieve shortages in their ranks and find officers who are wiser, more worldly and cooler-headed in a crisis. In recent years, St. Petersburg and Tampa, Fla., dropped the need for a two-year college degree if the candidate has military or law enforcement experience. Oakland, Calif., is no longer disqualifying applicants for minor, long-ago drug convictions or gang involvement. And Boston this spring raised the upper age limit for recruits from 32 to 40.

"It doesn't matter what youth, you're all on the same track," Otero said, taking a break from skating Friday during the Regional Youth Advisory Council's annual conference. - The regional council, one of four in the Kansas Youth Advisory Council, is made up of western Kansas youth ages 15 to 21 who are or have been in foster care. They meet monthly to discuss foster care issues, including aspects of the system they would like to see change. Otero is one of the region's three state representatives, so she takes feedback from the meetings to the state's council, which seeks to influence the policy-makers who govern the foster care system. "I gather information about what we don't like and try to figure out how to change that or make it better," she said.

Well rum McDonalds outlet. Food was fast and good quality. Beats most of the full serve retaurants in town
We wanted to save a few dollars rather than eat at the hotel again so we ended up here (familiarity). Service was ok but we were hassled by other "customers" for food and money. Quickly got back in the car and headed off.
Kayenta McDonald's is not as clean as the other fast-food places along the highway. We won't be back.
This McDonald's is like any other McDonald's. Mediocre and not very good. All the food is greasy. We don't usually eat at these places but there is nothing around so we went here.
Two large drip coffees and two egg white sandwiches were over $14. Seemed very high for a drive through (although I supposed if we got standard egg mcmuffins they'd be much cheaper). Not a lot of choices in Kayenta, but the drive through was fast and efficient. Lots of stray dogs in the parking lot (same throughout the town).
I would not normally give a McDonalds a very good rating on here, but this one is not just any location. This is the perfect stopping point on our long drives to Colorado when the kids have lost their patience and are asking "when will we get there?" It has a gigantic play area of multiple levels and the kids...
Hot and fresh but watch out for the men approaching cars in the parking lot. Staff lovely. Nothing more to say
We were very pleased to see this restaurant in Kayenta on our way in and out of Monument Valley. This is a newer McDonalds and has all the modern conveniences of any of their other stores. Service was fast, food was good, and employees were considerate and polite. Good value for the tired, hungry traveller while exploring the grand views...
We stopped by for lunch and the drive thru was closed for some unknown reason. I went inside to order and was told that their credit card machine wasn't working, so they only will accept cash. I place my order and waited for about 20 minutes before someone behind the counter asked all of us who were waiting for our...
Staffed with smart and pretty Navajo girls, great service, food is fast, fresh and tasty. What's not to like!

You and the anonymous coward are both worng. Considering there is so many version of "japanese", there is a direct way to converting "some" Japanese to roman letter.
Okay, perhaps we are lacking some mutual clarity in what we consider a direct romanisation. If you simply want a mapping from Japanese onto roman characters, then Nippon-shiki will grant that. However, I consider this lacking because, if you follow its pronunciation you will be mispronouncing a lot of things in any dialect I've heard. This is how we run into the Nippon->Japan problem. Hepburn, which would probably be my romaji of choice if I wanted to present to an primarily-English-speaking audience, is actually a pretty good transliteration of pronunciation, but otherwise it's pretty much impossible, and it doesn't really do much of a mapping. This is the dichotomy that I call problematic to declaring a "direct translation": you can have good mapping or good transliteration, but not both. In this manner, there is no direct mapping, but we have agreed on a handful of romaji, chiefly Nippon-shiki and Hepburn, and called them "good enough". But even note here we come up with multiple ways to write the same thing. Now, Arabic script has its romanisations, too, each with their own issues. We've agreed on more than a handful of these, however, and everybody seems to have chosen different ones, hence all of the different ways listed above of writing just one name.

The most difficult part, something touched on by the concurrent RPI lectures / commentary, was sorting out the right word from the resulting search context.
Going backwards in time is really easy. The most difficult part, something touched on by science fiction novels, was exceeding the speed of light.
Seriously, that problem is much more difficult than you are making it out to be. Also, the fill-in-the-blank style questions actually used to be a weak point of Watson's that has obviously now become a strong point. I don't remember where I read it, but apparently they chose the questions in the same manner they normally do, less the audio/video questions, so I wouldn't say they are geared toward Watson at all. In fact, I remember at least two categories where Watson didn't provide a single answer!
