Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! Contact us, or contact another local humane society, animal shelter or SPCA.
Attention Rescue Workers/Fosters (501 C 3)We Need Help SAVING OUR PITBULLS & CATS, Please Contact us !!!!
We are a county facility. We try to find all the animals a loving, lifelong home. Due to the high number of animals the shelter receives it's not always possible.
Monday - Saturday
Closed Sunday
Office Hours: 8am - 4:30pm
Kennel Area & Adoptions: 12 pm - 3:30pm
Spotsylvania County Animal Shelter only adopts to Spotsylvania County Residents if the animal is under 16 weeks of age. If you live in any other county or another state, the animal must be altered before leaving Spotsylvania Animal Shelter.
All adoptions are based on a first-come first-serve baisis on the day the animal is available. You must be at least 18 years of age and provide a current ID. Also, if you have other pets or children, we suggest that you bring them in to visit before adoption. Most of our animals are strays and we can only guess by observing the behavior of the animal in the kennel/cage and interaction by the shelter staff, whether they are good with other animals or children.
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder? When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.

my lemon cucumbers look poopy
I just started a hydro grow "hydrofarm emily's garden". My Lemon cucumbers look like they are dying. They are crunchy and have bright yellow around the edges. I checked my PH and it is 6.5. I have 6 netpots in the same resevoir.
Lemon Cuc
Plain ol' Cuc
Rainbow cherry tomatoes
Silver fir tomato
Yellow bell pepper
Sweet romanian peppers
I know tomatoes like higher ph levels but would 6.5 cause the leaves to do this or is it just because they were transplanted from soil just a week ago and they are still in shock?
My tomatoes look good. My peppers are so, so!
Not sure what this is causing, but . . . something or other is incorrectly dosed, eg: N, S, or Mg.
Check your dilution instructions and if you can't find anything wrong, wash the system with plain water and change the type of nutrient.
This is a guess only. Your clay pellets look bone dry. Have you tried puring water or nutrients directly on the plant via a mister or just a bucket?
I say it is a guess because if a plant is not receiving enough water, you'd expect it to wilt, not look burnt like yours does. Still, it DOES look like your plant is having trouble absorbing something, as greystoke suggested.
Were most of the roots broken off during transplanting?
A plant newly transplanted usually needs very dilute nutrients for a while while the roots recover from the injury. Strong nutrients right away can cause burning.
I've noticed that cucs like a rather low pH compared to many of the others I would probably aim for a pH of 6-6.2 for a happy medium. (I think the cucs would be even happier at a lower pH than that as I seem to but I don't know about the others.)
Hey ricrellim,
How did your circulating system work out? Do you have any pics?
I've created a very small DWC for my lemon cukes...
Here is a link that might be useful: Lemon Cukes!
They did really well once I changed my system. I am sure if I would have waited for the roots to grow more they would have been fine in a DWC setup.
These pictures are the last ones I took. My sun room has seen temps up to 105 this year and it killed my cucumbers over the course of a long weekend I was away.
The ones I did get tasted great and I will grow them again. They did get huge and crazy. Keeping them trimmed and under control was a lot of work at times.

The march of Daniel Vettori's brave men into the ICC Champions Trophy final is a heart-warming story in itself. The side has bucked the odds, retained faith.
Its limited pool of talent stretched by a string of injuries, not many expected New Zealand to rise from the ashes after the defeat against South Africa at SuperSport Park in its first game.
A side without key players - Jesse Ryder (groin), Jacob Oram (hamstring), and Darryl Tuffey (broken hand) - has surprised and stung. Adversity has brought the group together; the Kiwi dream run has been underlined by belief.
In a testimony to the side's resolve, Grant Elliott batted with a broken thumb against Pakistan on Saturday to carve out a match-winning innings under pressure.
Elliott learnt his skills in South Africa before qualifying for New Zealand. He has made his move count.
Awaiting New Zealand on Monday is the formidable Australia, peaking in the climactic stages of the competition.
Skipper Ricky Ponting, rejuvenated and hungry for success, is striking the ball with the ease and grace of a natural that he is.
All-rounder Shane Watson - leaving behind fitness concerns – is re-discovering himself in international cricket as a powerful opening batsman and a busy support seamer.
Ponting's counter-part Daniel Vettori too believes in leading by example. And the underdog tag might just take some pressure off his side in the Trans-Tasman clash.
The affable Vettori's smiling exterior can be deceptive. The man has steel in his bones. In his quiet way, he has rallied his men around him.
But then, all the Kiwi upsets - over Sri Lanka, England and Pakistan - have been achieved at the lively Wanderers track. And in its only earlier match at Centurion, the Kiwis went down to the host.
The final - at Centurion's SuperSport Park - could demand a different set of skills from the Kiwis.
At the Wanderers, the Kiwi pacemen - but for the odd abberation - essentially bowled just short-of-a-good length around the off-stump, neither allowing the batsmen to venture into the front-footed drives nor giving them room and space to slam them off the back-foot. They were hitting the deck hard and achieving some bounce and deviation.
The batsmen were caught at the crease.
The Kiwi pacemen mixed this routine with occasional fuller length deliveries and the odd short-pitched flier with deadly effect. The dismissals of Kamran Akmal and Imran Nazir in the semifinal were a case in point.
The Kiwi pacemen may have to rely on different tactics in the summit clash. Shane Bond's fuller length and swing and skipper Vettori's tight left-arm spin could have a major say. This said, paceman Ian Butler, with his high-arm action and line, was outstanding against Pakistan.
Could the Kiwis play a second spinner in offie Jeetan Patel at SuperSport Park? This could hinge on the surface used for the game.
There is a sluggish pitch that encourages spin - and makes stroke-play hard - and a fresher one that is quicker and bouncier but does not quite offer the bowlers much assistance in terms of deviation.
Irrespective of the nature of the surface, the Aussie batsmen will seek to disrupt the length of the Kiwi bowlers. Anything short or wide could be put to the sword. The Englishmen discovered this the hard way at Centurion.
Importantly, Australia has an in-form left-hander in Michael Hussey, who could handle Vettori's left-arm spin capably in the middle-overs.
Pakistan missed a specialist left-handed batsman in the semifinal. Australia - despite the absence of the injured Michael Clarke – has depth and firepower in batting. The Kiwi bowling need Vettori's calming influence.
The Australian pace attack of Brett Lee, Peter Siddle and Mitchell Johnson with Watson for support is an incisive one; this bunch can hustle a line-up. The pacemen have been supported by an outstanding Tim Paine behind the stumps.
But then, the Aussie pacemen, Johnson in particular, bowled some loose stuff at the Englishmen after making the early inroads.
Despite the improvement in offie Nathan Hauritz, the side is still short on spin.
New Zealand has depth in batting but does not possess much in terms of real quality. It would need the likes of Brendon McCullum and Ross Taylor to produce a big score. McCullum versus Lee in the early overs could be exhilarating. And Elliott, who comprehends these conditions well, relishes the sniff of a fight.
As the innings progresses, the timing of the batting Power Plays will be critical. Both the sides are swift and sharp on the field.
Eventually, it would boil down to handling the pressures of a Cup final.
Australia has a distinct edge, but the spirited New Zealand is in with a shout.
The teams:
Australia (from): R. Ponting (captain), S. Watson, T. Paine, M. Hussey, C. Fergusen, C. White, J. Hopes, M. Johnson, B. Lee, N. Hauritz, P. Siddle, B. Hilfenhaus, D. Bollinger, D. Hussey, A. Voges.
New Zealand (from): D. Vettori (captain), B. McCullum, A. Redmond, M. Guptill, R. Taylor, G. Elliott, N. Broom, J. Franklin, K. Mills, S. Bond, I. Butler, G. Hopkins, S. Styris, B. Diamanti, J. Patel, Iain O' Brien.

Welcome to the Kankakee County Health Department
MARCH is National Nutrition Month
Eat Right with MyPlate
Before you eat, think about what goes on your plate or in your bowl. Foods like vegetables, fruits, whole grains, low-fat dairy products and lean protein foods contain the nutrients you need without too many calories. Over the day, include foods from all the food groups. Try the following tips to "Get Your Plate in Shape."
Make half your plate fruits and vegetables.
Eat a variety of vegetables, especially dark-green, red and orange vegetables plus beans and peas. Fresh, frozen and canned vegetables all count. Choose "reduced sodium" or "no-salt-added" canned vegetables. Add fruit to meals and snacks. Buy fruits that are dried, frozen or canned in water or 100% juice, as well as fresh fruits.
Make at least half your grains whole.
Choose 100% whole-grain breads, cereals, crackers, pasta and brown rice. Check the ingredients list on food packages to find whole-grain foods.
Switch to fat-free or low-fat milk.
Fat-free and low-fat milk have the same amount of calcium and other essential nutrients as whole milk, but less fat and calories. If you are lactose intolerant, try lactose-free milk or a calcium-fortified soy beverage.
Vary your protein choices.
Eat a variety of foods from the protein food group each week, such as seafood, nuts and beans, as well as lean meat, poultry and eggs. Twice a week, make seafood the protein on your plate. Keep meat and poultry portions small and lean.
Cut back on sodium and empty calories from solid fats and added sugars.
Drink water instead of sugary drinks. Select fruit for dessert. Eat sugary desserts less often. Choose 100% fruit juice instead of fruit-flavored drinks. Look out for salt (sodium) in foods you buy. Compare sodium in foods and choose those with lower numbers. Add spices or herbs to season food without adding salt. Make major sources of saturated fats such as desserts, pizza, cheese, sausages and hot dogs occasional choices, not every day foods. Select lean cuts of meat or poultry and fat-free or low-fat milk, yogurt and cheese. Switch from solid fats to oils when preparing food.
Enjoy your food but eat less.
Get your personal daily calorie limit at www.ChooseMyPlate.gov. Keep that number in mind when deciding what to eat. Avoid oversized portions. Use a smaller plate, bowl and glass. Cook more often at home, where you are in control of what's in your food. When eating out, choose lower calorie menu options. Choose dishes that include vegetables, fruits and whole grains. Write down what you eat to keep track of how much you eat. If you drink alcoholic beverages, do so sensibly. Limit to 1 drink a day for women or to 2 drinks a day for men.

Maytag refrigerator
Having problems with the icemaker in my Maytag refrigerator. It won't dislodge the icecubes. It seems to be freezing up, but that doesn't seem likely. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Or guidance on how to manually operate it without damaging it. Can it be unplugged and removed for cleaning? I guess I have no idea about what could be causing the problem.
If it is like my Jenn-air, the ice maker can be removed, mine is mounted by 3 screws which you remove and then unplug a connector.
Mine lasted 5 years, and then had the same problem as yours.
The heater burned out in it. I just replaced the whole ice maker, which was about $135. You might be able to get a heater for it, but it would be a bit of a job to replace, and probably not worth the few dollars you would save just replacing the heater instead of the whole Ice maker.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 - 4 nights
This is a beautiful cottage within Reykjavík. You have BIG private garden with hot tub, barbecue grill, romantic fireplace and you are in Reykjaviks park area and it´s named Heiðmörk. Free WIFI- for e-mails and news.
Close by are the water reserves for the Reykjavík capital named Gvendarbrunnar,. This is Reykjavíks conservations area. Only 5 minutes drive you have one of the best heated swimmingpool in Reykjavík, you can see in one of the pictures. You are only 5 minutes drive to next super market. You are only 15 minutes drive to the center of Reykjavík. This is the perfect place to discover Reykjavík and drive for daytours in the country. Can´t get any better! This is new for rental and has never been rented out before!
Please enjoy!
My husband Stan and I stayed at the cottage for 5 nights. We arrived in bad weather with very strong winds and we couldn't leave the plane for 2hours after landing! But after that start, we found the 4x4 we hired from Gestur in the car park and drove to meet him using the sat nav supplied. Gestur and his wife very kindly drove ahead of us to show us where the supermarket was (it was about 9-10pm by this time).
We eventually found the cottage and walked into a lovely, cosy, warm cottage from the driving wind and snow outside. Despite this, we poured a drink and went into the hot tub outside, which is gorgeous and warm. It was from the hot tub, with a drink in hand that we watched the aurora for 2 nights during our stay. Fabulous!! Who would have thought that I would take a shower in temperature of -4 laughing while we did so?! :)
There are DVDs and books within the cottage for you to use and the kitchen is well stocked with crockery etc.
Reykjavik centre is only about 20 minutes drive away with many restaurants and bars and a drive out to the geysers is well worth it, enjoy the scenery on the way.
We enjoyed relaxing and resting in the warmth watching the snow fall outside. It was the rest we really needed. A great experience :)
One of our best holidays ever ! The paradise cottage offered a great base for our activities around icaland, great location just outside Reykjavik city, 10 mins drive away.
Pros: Location, Hot Tub, Outdoor Shower, grounds around cottage for mini adventures, we made a swing in the trees Gestur you can have that for free ;) , comfy big beds, fire place. Big open space living room, Views.
Cons: small bedrooms meant not much room for baggage. THATS IT.
Try the hot tub first thing in the morning when its -2 then jump in the shower WOW no better way to start your day. Then get back in the hot tub at night under the stars with some fizz, no better way to end the day. :)
We hired a 4x4 from the owners which is a bit old but did the job perfectly, sat nav was a saviour for getting about iceland.
Will 100% be back to Paradise Cottage were we created so many great family memories.
Just get it booked you will not regret it !!
Andy + Michelle + Caleb
Lovely location which is very peaceful but still only a short drive to Reykjavik. Scenery from the house was amazing and we loved our trip.
The hot tub really made it special as we were out in it almost every night looking for the northern lights (unfortunately did not see them though). Was great to be in 41 degree water whilst its snowing and -6.
Outside shower was interesting. Really got the circulation going and was fun :)
We rented the Suzuki from Gestur for the 6 days which is a must. The 2km track leading to the house gets very icy in the winter and even with spiked tyres, driving slowly and in low range it still slips, so I could not imagine getting there with a bog standard road car.
4x4 was also useful getting to Pingvallir and Geysir as roads were also very slippy on the way.
Useful tip if you do hire the car from Gestur. On the Sat Nav go to Favourites and select House as this takes you straight there (we struggled to find location when trying to type in post code).
Also another tip regarding the fire. We just assumed that we used logs and kindle that was around at first but then found out that its best to go to local garage and grab logs wrapped in wax paper.
Whilst on the subject of tips here are some more:
- There is a hair dryer at the house so you don't need to bring one.
- Don't be tempted to pay extra at the Blue Lagoon for robe, towel and free drink (despite me saying this to my girlfriend). Its really not worth the extra money in my opinion as you are mainly in the water and could buy an extra 10 drinks despite the high prices.
- My girlfriend also recommends conditioner on your hair when going in the Lagoon. She didn't and says her hair feels like straw now.
The house was really nice and we would definitely come back again as there is so much more we would like to see.
Thanks to Gestur who was excellent with regards to communication and everything went very well with getting the car and getting into the house due to the clear instructions.
So overall a very special holiday made amazing by the excellent house and location of the house.
Thanks again Gestur.
Mark and Jo
SO many good points to note....
- Absolutely STUNNING location
- Easy access to Reykjavik and all sights/attractions
- 7 mins to 24 hr shop/ petrol/ fastfood
- Very comfortable beds
- Amazing large hot tub
- Easy payment and good communication with owner
- Warm, homely feel with cosy with log fire and leather sofas
- Big TV which we played movies from the laptop on (via HDMI)
- Loud and good quality sound system
- No neighbours to disturb or be disturbed by
- Free wi-fi works great
Before you book you should know:
- You will need a 4x4 to access it, our Jeep almost couldn't make it in the snow and ice even with spikey tires, all I can say is buy extra insurace for your Jeep!
- Shower is outside but we like that :)
- Stereo is radio and CD only but tune into 91.9FM and you won't need an iPod to have a party (Flashback FM with 90's Hip/Hop, Dance, Classics all day and night!)
Honestly, I wouldn't want to stay anywhere else in Iceland, thanks Gestur and wife for letting us stay in your beautiful holiday home, would come back in a heartbeat :)
P.S. Northern lights we're insane!!! :D
WE can't say enough about our recent trip, we just got back last night and would suggest anyone that has considered a trip to Iceland to do it! The cottage was perfect for the 2 of us, it would have been a squeeze if there was more, simply because there is no room to put your suitcase! The outdoor shower was not a problem, even in winter, the trick is to jump in the hotub after! We arranged a car hire with Gestur, which was perfect as it was left at the airport for us. The GPS was a god send!. We ventured to Geysir and Gulfoss ( a must for the Lamb stew!) partied with the locals on new years eve and experienced the best firework display in our lives! Ventured to the blue lagoon new years day. (would suggest the basic package only as it was special enough just being there!) in the town near to the Blue Lagoon ( Grindavik) is a wonderful retaurant called the Salthusid that is worth a visit and much cheaper thean the Blue Lagoon restaurant.
We were lucky to see the northern lights on New years day to welcome the new year in, clear view from the cottage, just wish we had found the binoculars before rather than after! but I managed to get some great pictures. All in all, one of our best trips ever, we look forward to returning!. Thanks Gestur!

I cannot recommend a holiday to Iceland enough, and in particular a stay in Paradise Cottage is a must!! The cottage has absolutely stunning views, is so peaceful, relaxing, cosy, very comfortable beds, log fire, hot tub, wifi… everything you need for a lovely stay in Iceland. Hot tub was just perfect! I should also comment on the outdoor shower (as everyone else has!), and would say it wasn't even an issue even though at home it would sound a bit odd but in the peace and tranquillity of Paradise Cottage it seems natural and is a great way to start the day :) If you go in the Spring/ Summer keep an eye out for the resident Maríuerla (Wagtail), so cute. Gestur was very helpful to us and changed over the gas canister that had run out within a couple of hours of us contacting him whilst we were at the Blue Lagoon, so it didn't cause any disruption to our holiday. One other thing to mention is that the smoke alarm is very sensitive and will also activate the house alarm, would advise to have both windows open when cooking and if the alarm does go off I would contact Gestur or Arnar once you have reset it to make sure a quick phone call to Securitas is made… or you will receive a visit from Securitas (Securitas are very friendly, but it will just save them having to come out for a non emergency).
Iceland itself is truly amazing - hire a car and explore… in particular Jökulsárlón (glacial lagoon) will take your breath away and make sure you stop off at Seljalandfoss and Skogafoss on the way. Blue Lagoon, a typical tourist attraction, but just incredible (take your own towel and flip flops to save money) and also the many local heated outdoor pools are fab to visit as you explore the country… with hot tubs, steam rooms, big slides and all very clean and cheap at about 550 kr per adult, we particularly enjoyed the swimming pool in Borganes as it was very quiet and set in a good location with views of the mountains.
I could go on and on about Iceland and Paradise Cottage and how amazing it is, really did not want to come home.
Thank you very much to Gestur for the rental of your lovely home for a week :)

There's little question that waking up every morning next to a person you love is good for your health. According to a new study by researchers from the University of Pittsburgh, a happy marriage or marital-like relationship may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Published in Health
Keywords: Marriage, heart health, study
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Many studies have investigated the link between marriage and heart health. Medical News Today earlier this year reported on a study suggesting that unmarried women are more likely to die from heart disease. Another study from NYU Langone Medical Center in New York linked marriage to a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease.
There is growing evidence that the quality and patterns of social relationships are linked to an array of health outcomes.
Fill in the gaps to end world hunger by going here --
Study author Thomas Kamarck, professor of psychology at the University of Pittsburgh Arts and Sciences and his team wanted to determine whether positive or negative marital interactions influence the risk of heart disease.
Analyzing 281 healthy and employed middle-aged adults who were either married or living with a partner in a marital-like relationship, researchers found that positive marital interaction may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Over the course of four days, interactions between participants and their partners were monitored every hour, and participants rated their interactions as positive or negative.
Examined were the thickness of subjects' carotid arteries, which are major blood vessels in the neck that supply the head and neck with oxygenated blood were also measured. Thickening of the carotid arteries can cause them to narrow, which can lead to atherosclerosis, which is a build-up of fatty plaques in the arteries.
The study revealed that participants who reported negative interactions with their partner had thicker carotid arteries. They calculated that these subjects had an 8.5 percent higher risk of developing heart disease, compared with those who reported positive interactions with their partner.
The findings were found consistent across all age groups, races, genders and education levels. The results remained even after accounting for other factors that may influence the risk of heart disease.
"The contribution of this study is in showing that these sorts of links [between marital interactions and CVD] may be observed even during the earliest stages of plaque development, and that these observations may be rooted not just in the way that we evaluate our relationships in general but in the quality of specific social interactions with our partners as they unfold during our daily lives," Kamarck says.
Lead author Nataria Joseph says she believes the implications of the findings reach further than heart disease risk.
"It's another bit of support for the thought that marital or serious romantic relationships play a significant role in overall health," she says. "Biological, psychological, and social processes all interact to determine physical health."

New Hampshire Motor Speedway Looks To Add Lights, Run July Sprint Cup Race At Night
Published September 23, 2013
New Hampshire Motor Speedway Exec VP & GM Jerry Gappens said that he "has been advocating for lights the past two years," but a five-year-old agreement between former track Owner Bob Bahre and the town of Loudon states that "racing must be through" by 7:30pm ET, according to Ray Duckler of the CONCORD MONITOR. NHMS is "one of four tracks" used during NASCAR's Chase for the Sprint Cup that does not have lights. Loudon residents "have shied from the lights," despite the fact that "fans tell Gappens that they want them so the July race can run on a Saturday night, thus reducing heat and humidity, and the September race can have an insurance policy." Gappens said, "Look at what Monday Night Football did for the NFL. It opened it to new audiences. It would take the race to a new level, make it a spectacle." He added that he is "not worried about losing the Chase race." But Duckler notes with NASCAR's new TV deals with NBC and Fox that begin in '15, race officials "might make some changes to offer the best product possible." Gappens: "I can see NASCAR saying that with this investment, we need to get these races in. They may say we need lights" (CONCORD MONITOR, 9/23). Gappens said, "New Englanders don't like 90-95 degree heat and high humidity. And I'm seeing the (ticket) numbers reflect that in renewals for July." He added he is "in the process of trying to navigate through" Loudon's time restrictions for races. Gappens: "The town obviously doesn't want to re-open the lawsuit and have to defend itself. So we just have to navigate our way through … we have a couple of approaches that we are working on" (NASCAR.com, 9/21).

Dr. Yvonne Pendleton is the Director of the Solar System Exploration Research Virtual Institute. Pendleton joined NASA Ames in July 1979 having earned her Bachelor of Aerospace Engineering degree from the Georgia Institute of Technology. Under NASA sponsored programs, she obtained a Master's Degree in Aeronautics and Astronautics from Stanford University (1981) and a Ph.D. in Astrophysics from the University of California at Santa Cruz (1987). As a research astrophysicist in the Space Science and Astrobiology Division from 1979-2005, Yvonne published 80 scientific papers and contributed significantly to our understanding of the origin and evolution of organic material in the universe. The goal of her ongoing research program is to understand the composition of the organic material found in the interstellar medium and to investigate the incorporation of the organic material from space into the early Earth environment. She is an elected fellow of the California Academy of Science and Asteroid 7165Pendleton was named in honor of her research contributions.
Appointed Chief of the Space Science and Astrobiology Division at NASA Ames Research Center in 2005, she led a scientific and technical staff of 160 people. When asked to serve as the senior advisor for research and analysis programs for the Science Mission Directorate at NASA Headquarters, she moved to Washington, DC from 2007-8. There she provided independent assessments and guidance to the Associate Administrator of the Science Mission Directorate concerning NASA's science research programs and increased scientific productivity across the nation as the time required to evaluate and award research grants was significantly reduced. During that time she was also responsible for the Education and Public Outreach of NASA's Science Mission Directorate and led a team that managed the nearly 50 million dollar investment made in EPO activities, including those from NASA's science missions. Returning to NASA Ames in July of 2008, Yvonne became the deputy associate director where she provided guidance and direction to several collaborative scientific and technical efforts and served as an academic Dean of Students for the several hundred students on the Ames campus each summer.

This award will recognize institutions that have demonstrated an institutional vision for and commitment to enhancing curricular internationalization through the use of technology, specifically collaborative online international learning. Also known as globally networked learning, virtual exchange, virtual mobility, and telecollaboration, collaborative online international learning is an innovative approach to teaching and learning that provides faculty and students the ability to collaborate with peers internationally through the use of online communication tools. Institutions will need to demonstrate their capability and commitment to develop and implement globally networked courses that align with the model evolving at the SUNY COIL Center.
The COIL approach to globally networked learning is to link a class at an American university with one at a university abroad. The individual classes may meet in a classroom, online or a blend of the two, but the collaborative work between the two groups takes place online. The COIL model promotes team-taught courses where faculty members work with peers at their partner institutions to deliver interactive shared coursework emphasizing experiential learning. Through engaging the perspectives of their global peers, the outcome for both faculty and students is a broader and more situated understanding of the course content and enhanced cross-cultural awareness.
Review additional information about COIL, its approach to internationalization, examples of past courses, and an FAQ for this award category here.
The most competitive entries will demonstrate the following:
Three institutions will be selected for this award. The award consists of recognition at the 2014 COIL Conference in NYC, taking place on March 20-21, and training and support from the SUNY COIL Center, in collaboration with ACE, to develop two collaborative online international pilot courses with partner institution(s) abroad.
The institutions' Chief Academic Officer or the individual responsible for leading internationalization (e.g. Senior International Officer) will be invited to attend the COIL Conference. A $500 travel stipend per institution will be issued to support travel costs and the conference registration fee (approximately $325) will be waived.
For a period of up to 14 months following the 2014 COIL Conference, institutions will receive training and support from the SUNY COIL Center to launch the two pilot courses. This will include: an institutional needs assessment; a face-to-face training workshop; video conferences; as well as consultation for campus leadership, and support for faculty and staff, including international partners. This training and support package would be valued at approximately $16,000 as a COIL fee-for-service offering. Winning institutions will be invited to present on their experience and courses at the 2015 COIL Conference (late-March, exact date TBD), and case studies, which analyze the experience, will be developed and disseminated.
An institutional investment will help to ensure success and sustainability of these efforts. As such, winning institutions will be responsible for financing the following:
In addition to a financial commitment, institutional participants should plan for the following time demands in order to successfully implement a globally networked course.
Approximate time expectations for participating faculty:

The Seated Writer
Posted by rogerfloyd in Uncategorized on March 1, 2015
In this day and age, we hear a lot about exercise. It's considered important for overall health. Get up and get out, we are told. Walk, jog, bicycle, whatever, but get some exercise. I suspect that thousands of years ago when the human body first took the form we know today, it developed in a species that still had to struggle everyday just to get enough food to eat. Early man couldn't go to the supermarket to get food. He/she may have had to climb trees to get fruit, or chased down prey to get meat. In any event, the human body developed with a requirement for some sort of regular exercise every day.
Enter the modern man. We ride smog-producing conveyances instead of walking. We sit at a desk or in meetings for hours every day. We have even gone so far as to develop the remote control for our television viewing so as to allow us to remain seated instead of having to get up and change the channel. Are we really that lazy?
Writing must be among the most sedentary of professions. Put butt in chair and write, we are told. We sit quietly in a chair for long hours, tapping away at a computer keyboard or scratching ink or pencil on a piece of paper. I've heard (I'm not giving away any names here) of writers who claim (brag, even) that they write 24/7. This implies they actually and literally write twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. Personally, I'm skeptical. They say they do that because they love writing, though I doubt they're in a chair all that time. I love to write, but not to that extent. But the existence of these writers does bring up an important point. I'm certainly not skeptical that there are writers who do spend a lot of time in the chair writing. But writing to this extent isn't good.
Sitting that long is bad, not only for your butt, but your overall health. Sure, the writing has to be done, and the bills have to be paid, but is it worth all that time spent hacking away if you are only going to ruin your health because of it? Get out of the chair. Write in short spurts of a couple of hours at a time at the most. Walking, jogging, swimming, gardening—these are all considered good exercise. Find out what's best for you and keep at it.
Exercise is supposed to increase blood flow to the brain, and that's the organ most seriously involved in writing. I walk a lot. I also lift weights, though I do that more to keep the muscles and joints in my upper body from becoming rigid or frozen rather than build muscle mass. But there's more to walking than blood flow. I've found a lot of ideas during my walks. I've solved problems with some of my writings. Walking not only improves my overall health, it gives me time to contemplate. Walking takes time. Walking five miles will take slightly more than an hour, and that gives me time to go over my work and think about what's to come.
So, what do you do for exercise? Or are you a writer 24/7?
Measles Vaccine (What? Again?)
Posted by rogerfloyd in Uncategorized on February 15, 2015
Much has been made in the past couple of weeks of Senator Rand Paul's (R-KY) comments about the neurological complications of the measles vaccine. He recanted his ill-advised comments several days later, but they linger on, and many others have commented on his comments. Ad nauseam. Some commentators, in an effort to emphasize the safety of the vaccine and encourage people to get vaccinated or get their children vaccinated, have denied that there have ever been any severe side effects (a scientist would call them 'adverse reactions') at all. Strictly speaking, neither is correct.
The measles vaccine has been out since the early 1970's in the United States, and since that time a number of adverse reactions have occurred in the days, weeks and months after some people were immunized. I use that convoluted language to emphasize a point. Adverse reactions can't occur until the vaccine is given. You certainly can't get a bad reaction to a vaccine before it's given, can you? Therefore, timing is important. And just because a person receives a vaccine and gets a bad reaction, that by itself doesn't prove that the reaction was caused by the vaccine. That being said, many reactions to measles vaccine have been reported. Autism is not one of them. (Measles vaccine is now given either as a trivalent vaccine along with mumps and rubella, or as a tetravalent vaccine: measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella.). Most reactions have been mild, such as fever or a mild rash. Some have been more severe, including seizures, joint pain and stiffness, low platelet count. Some have been very severe, including long-term seizures, even permanent brain damage. It is this last point to which Senator Paul was probably referring.
The reason these reactions are related to measles vaccine is, again, timing. They occurred after the vaccine was given. That doesn't prove unequivocally that the reactions were due to the vaccine, but with some reactions, such as fever and a mild rash, the sheer number of cases of these reactions pretty well implicates the vaccine. But the same can't be said for the serious reactions. So few cases of seizures and permanent brain damage have been reported we just can't ascribe them to the vaccine. There's not enough data.
The only way to really prove that severe brain damage has been caused by the vaccine would be to take hundreds of thousands of children and divide them into two groups. That is, it would have to be done as a double-blind trial. One group would receive the vaccine, the other a placebo. Then we'd look for adverse reactions. They should occur only in the vaccinated. But such a trial would certainly be time consuming, expensive, unnecessary, and most important of all, grossly unethical. So, all we do is report adverse reactions when they occur.
The reduction in number of cases of measles after the introduction of the measles vaccine certainly justifies the continued use of the vaccine. Measles is not just a bad cold with a rash. The disease itself can cause neurological complications, even death. The only way we'll ever be free of the scourge of measles will be when it is eradicated from the earth. I have no idea what Rand Paul will comment on then.
Measles Vaccine, Part Two
Posted by rogerfloyd in Uncategorized on February 8, 2015
No, the title of this post doesn't mean I've posted before about the measles vaccine. In fact, I've never said anything about measles or the vaccine in these little essays on WordPress. What I'm saying here is that this posting is about a second reason for getting the vaccine, if you or your children aren't presently vaccinated. The primary reason for getting the vaccine is two-fold: to prevent getting the disease caused by the wild virus, and, by extension, to prevent spreading the disease to others. It is this main reason that measles and the measles vaccine have been in the news so much lately. But there is also a second reason to get vaccinated. This has to do with infants and their mothers.
Before the measles vaccine was developed, measles was a common childhood disease, along with mumps, chickenpox and rubella. (All of those also have vaccines, by the way.) There were millions of cases of measles every year in the US. There were very few deaths due to measles, but what is most important for this discussion is that girls and women who got the disease also got a life-long immunity to it. When these women got pregnant, they passed some of their immunity to the developing fetus, and this immunity helped keep the newborn from contracting the disease for a short time after birth. An infant's immune system is not fully developed until about nine to twelve months after birth, and this is why the recommendation is that a child not get his/her first immunizations until he/she is about one year old. Well, Mother Nature, in her infinite wisdom, took care of that delay in immune system formation and allowed some of the antibodies that the mother possesses after a natural infection to cross the placenta and circulate in the newborn's blood. That way the infant was protected. Well, to a certain extant. This type of transferred immunity isn't as good as that after a natural infection, but it is something.
Then, along came the vaccine. Since the measles vaccine was introduced in the early 1970's, the number of new cases of measles has dropped drastically. Now, here in the early twenty-first century, we see very few cases. But mothers now don't have that immunity induced by a case of the measles, so they don't pass it along to their children. Now we're beginning to see cases of measles in children under one year old. And these cases can be severe. When the child had transferred immunity, if he/she did get infected, the disease was frequently milder.
So now we have a rather un-natural situation. The vaccine reduced the disease, but it left young women with little or no immunity. So, it is incumbent on all of us to get the vaccine to help prevent infections that might be transferred to a totally unprotected newborn. Young women who expect to become pregnant soon are advised to get the vaccine, even if they had the vaccine as a child. But this is more to help prevent them from transmitting the virus to their newborns, not to boost their immunity. Vaccinated mothers probably don't transfer much immunity to their fetus, at least not as much as a natural infection would.
The only way out of this situation is to eradicate the disease from the face of the earth, as has been done with smallpox. Measles is a good candidate for eradication, too. Only in that situation can a young mother be sure her infant won't get measles. For whatever reason.
Historic versus Historical
Posted by rogerfloyd in Uncategorized on February 1, 2015
I was at Chaco Culture National Historical Park several years ago to help the Sierra Club do some routine maintenance around the Park. Things that the regular staff doesn't get to. (Clean out brush, make some signs, clean debris out of some of the historic remains, etc.) After I left, I got to wondering about the name. The Park is a part of the National Park Service and so is run by the Interior Department. But the point about the name I was curious about was the word "Historical." Shouldn't it be "Historic"? After all, the remains of the buildings built by the Chacoan People are certainly historic. They're a part of the history of the land that was eventually incorporated into the nation we now call the United States. They were built between 800 and 1000 AD, and the US made them a part of a National Park that takes care of them and studies them to learn more about the people who built them. Certainly a reasonable thing to do. So I looked up the two words in the dictionary.
"Historic" means "famous or important in history." "Historical," though, means "of, relating to, or having the characteristics of history." Also "based on history," or "famous in history." I can identify with the definition of "historic," but the definition of "historical" left me unsatisfied. The two definitions are almost the same. Is there a real difference, and if so, what is it?
Actually, I believe the National Park Service got it right. It should be Chaco Culture National Historical Park. The reason for using that word is that it's not the Park itself that's historic, it's what's in the Park that is. The Park was created well after the buildings it preserves were constructed. We make a distinction between what's historic on the one hand, and what preserves history on the other. For example, the Declaration of Independence is an historic document, but the National Archives where it is stored and displayed is not an historic building (it's not that old). The Archives is an historical building because it preserves the document. Likewise, Chaco Culture Park preserves the remnants of the Chaco Culture. On the other hand, Independence Hall in Philadelphia is an historic building because history was made there. Thus, "historic" means "important in history," where "historical" has to do with preserving or studying or maintaining history.
Another example: the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC is not an historic building. It was put up well after Abraham Lincoln died, and serves to commemorate the life of the 16th President. It could be considered an historical building. So I believe a real difference exists between the two words and we should be careful to use them correctly. As the Park Service did.
Books And Fireworks
Posted by rogerfloyd in Uncategorized on January 25, 2015
Have you noticed? Books are subtle.
Books—and I'm speaking here mostly of novels—don't come with fireworks. They don't come with bands or loud music or spectacular displays or shouting pitchmen. Granted, a few may be launched by someone giving a fiery speech, especially a political tell-all book by an author with a story to tell or an ax to grind. In the vast majority of cases, novels are launched with only an announcement and perhaps a short, subdued speech by the author.
But it's within the book I want to concentrate. Books are more like symphony orchestras. You attend a concert by your favorite symphony and they perform and that's it. There's no fireworks display, no yelling, no screaming fans. The music can get loud, sure, but it's a controlled, unchaotic loudness. It's written into the music. You rely on the composer to decide what's loud and what's soft. Like Beethoven or Tchaikovsky. The conductor bows at the end of the concert, and you file out. All you need to know about the music is contained within. (I did once attend the Santa Fe Opera to see La Boheme, I believe, where they shot off one rocket, but that was all. They could do it because the Santa Fe Opera is outdoors.)
So it is with a novel. Most novels start slowly and build. But it's a controlled build, it takes you along smoothly and carefully, and gives you the information you need to digest the plot. It doesn't yell at you. It isn't a riotous, turbulent display of loud noise and flashing lights and lasers and mirrors. You don't have a drummer behind you with an exaggerated sense of his/her importance. The book is an entity all to itself. All you need to know is built right into the book. You don't need outside or extraneous fireworks to digest the story. A book is not spectacular; it quietly goes about its business delivering the message one word at a time. You don't read a book, you curl up with it.
As I write this, someone in an apartment nearby is playing rock music loud enough to be heard through the walls and floor or ceiling of my apartment. I feel sorry for someone who has to get his/her stimulation by been bombarded by loud music. Turn off the stereo or TV and read a book.
"Wild" and The Author
Posted by rogerfloyd in Uncategorized on January 18, 2015
I went to see the movie "Wild" a few weeks ago and enjoyed it a lot. If you haven't seen it, I recommend it highly. Two Oscar nominations have come from this film, one for Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role, Reese Witherspoon, and one for Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role, Laura Dern. The movie is based on a book by Cheryl Strayed about how she hiked the Pacific Crest Trail from southern California to northern Washington state in an effort to revitalize and recharge her life after the death of her mother, a disastrous marriage, and some destructive life choices she made. Before I saw the movie, I'd heard about the basic plot line, and had some routine expectations about the movie before I ever entered the theater.
It pays not to make too many assumptions.
I expected the movie to start near the beginning of Cheryl's life and run in a closely chronological order up through the hike, and end at or near the end of the trail. It didn't. The movie started as she was preparing for the hike, and the important incidents that led up to her decision to make the hike in the first place were interspersed at intervals throughout the entire movie. In a writer's parlance, this is known as "avoiding an info dump."
An info dump is when a writer gives a lot of information about a character, or the character's background, or about a situation, or perhaps even an item of scenery all at once in one big lump. It's just a lot of information that stalls the story, adds little or nothing to the plot, and turns the reader off. What the hell, the reader may ask, is this doing here? I could care less about how many buttons are on his overcoat. So often the details in an info dump are unimportant to the plot, and could be eliminated entirely. That doesn't mean all info dump information is unnecessary, however. Many times some of those details really are essential to the story line. The real problem with an info dump is that the reader can't tell which details are essential and which are not, and so tends to dismiss them all. So, the dumping of all of them in one place can really screw up an otherwise good story. This is what the movie did not do.
Cheryl's early life (that is, before the hike) was placed in vignettes scattered throughout the movie, not concentrated in any one place, so that the major action in the movie remained fixed on the hike itself. It wasn't what I expected, but I was glad to see it was well done. And writers can (and should) take a message from this. Make no mistake, the background of a character is almost always important to the story, certainly. As readers, we want to know what a person did to get himself or herself in this difficult situation. Background tells us that. But having it all dumped in our figurative laps all at once is disconcerting and frustrating. It should come in small spoonfuls as the narrative progresses. We want to stay focused on the action. Don't knock us out of the story. Talk to Cheryl.

I got to thinking today (always a bad sign) about how I would start a class on writing. That is, suppose I had to teach a class on writing to total novices, what would I say at the very beginning of the first class. Now, being an unpublished writer of science fiction, the thought of me teaching a class on writing is laughable at best, but in my mind I can ignore the fact that I probably don't have the faintest idea of what I'm talking about and go on to the class itself. So, where to start?
I'd start by saying that writing is one form of communication. Granted, that's not very profound, but it is a necessary beginning. Every writer is trying to communicate an idea. He/She's trying to say something. Writers are the type of people who put ideas down on paper or on a computer screen so that others can read it. A very simple idea.
But what we sometimes lose sight of is the necessity of making sure our ideas get through. It's a writer's job to make sure that the idea gets through into the mind of the reader. It's the writer's job to be clear in his expression of the idea he/she's trying to make. It doesn't matter if a writer is writing poetry, fiction, essay, memoir, or whatnot, it's the idea at the center of the writing that is the important thing. If you, as a writer, aren't making your idea clear, then you are a total, miserable, abject, tragic failure as a writer.
Writing is a two-way street, to use a well-known cliché. In addition to the writer, someone has to read the words, in other words, a reader has to exist to complete the picture. There are always two (2) people involved in writing. Writing without a reader is just chicken-scratching and is totally meaningless. The idea, the concept within that writing, has to get through absolutely.
I suppose this concept applies most strongly to poetry. I've read a lot of poetry that communicates a good idea, but I've also read some poetry, experimental mostly, in which the concept, the reason for the poem, is just lost. At least on me. But this basic tenant also applies to all forms of writing, and we all need to be sure we're communicating a good idea, a good concept, with our writing.
