- Career Opportunities
I worked at Eagle Gate College
As a company the employment is good cosnidering they pay relatively fair wages. Some really great people to work with there.
Lacking responsible mid-level leadership, campuses seem to be silo's. Easily swayed to make hiring decisions based on emotion and appearence as opposed to logic.
Advice to Management
Hold leadership more accountible and enforce policies accross the board. Prevent employee churning by respecting people have life events which can influence performance in the short-term. Rather than being reactive, try being proactive with these employees.

"Great opportunity to help students, poor corporate leadership "
- Comp & Benefits
- Work/Life Balance
- Senior Management
- Career Opportunities
I have been working at Eagle Gate College
Students who attend Eagle Gate College are very diverse. Most have difficult lives outside of school that interfere with their abilities to learn. This, however, forces many of these students to be very street smart and teachers have a great opportunity to influence students in a positive direction.
Adjunct educators do not have to worry about numbers and paperwork and can focus solely on teaching.
Corporate will listen to academia if they shout loud enough and unite with the same departments of other schools.
Decent benefits package.Cons
Eagle Gate places their priorities and chains of command in the following order:
1. Corporate Employees
2. Business Employees
3. Full-Time Educators (required to accomplish more work than any other entity)
4. Adjunct Educators (are paid the least)
5. Students (required to pay a lot)
There has been a disappointing chasm between those involved in Academia, and those involved in the business pursuits of the school.
Full-time educators, specifically Program Administrators, must embrace teaching and corporate responsibilities. Because of this dual responsibility, the turnover rate for full-time educators is nearly 100%. Corporate repeatedly ignores this number, which is frustrating to Eagle Gate students and educators.Advice to Management
Students base their college experience on the caliber of their teachers more than anything else. Take advice from academia (students + educators) more than you have in the past. Confront your disastrous academic educator turnover rate, and reduce the workload of Program Administrators.
Adjunct faculty members get paid less at Eagle Gate than most other local colleges and universities. -
I worked at Eagle Gate College
Enjoyed working with my department!
Benefits aren't the best. Quick to increase insurance premiums, but slow to give you pay raise.

FORT MYERS, Fla. — Boston Red Sox fans weren't the only ones soaking up the club's spring training workout at JetBlue Park on Saturday.
A self-proclaimed Mini Yu Darvish showed up to Red Sox camp on Saturday wearing a full Texas Rangers uniform. The fan, who looks just like a smaller version of the Rangers' Japanese ace, asked about Red Sox relievers Koji Uehara and Junichi Tazawa as the full squad stretched on one of the fields at Fenway South.
Mini Yu Darvish apparently goes by the moniker, "Minivish," evidenced by the name on the back of his Rangers jersey. This isn't the first time "Minivish" has been spotted around Major League Baseball spring training complexes, as the superfan was seen at Rangers spring training a couple of years ago. On that day, "Minivish" broke out a white Rangers jersey, whereas he opted for a blue jersey on Saturday.
Check out Minivish so graciously posing for NESN.com in the photos below.
Stumbled upon Mini Yu Darvish today. Can probably go home now. #Minivish #SpringTraining http://t.co/8qlYfdn13O

Barbiturate coma is initiated in brain-injured patients whenever elevated intracranial pressure remains unresponsive to other therapeutical strategies. However, barbiturates alter cortical activity resulting in difficulties in clinical evaluation. Therefore, we investigated the impact of long-term thiopental administration on responsiveness to exteroceptive stimuli in relation to pharmacokinetics of thiopental in CSF and serum. Long-term infusion increases thiopental levels which remain elevated for 6 and 9 days in CSF and serum, respectively, after termination of its administration. Prolonged unresponsiveness to exteroceptive stimuli correlates with persisting thiopental in CSF and serum. Thus, quantitative analysis of thiopental in serum becomes indispensable in predicting the length of drug-induced neurological impairment and in avoiding misinterpretation of the neurological status.

These are naturel rock formations, this area have many another interesting rock formations, ount Erciyes, Hasandagi and Golludag were active volcanoes in the geological periods. Alongside with many other volcanoes, eruptions of these volcanoes started in the Early Miocene (10 million years ago) and have continued until the present day.
The lava produced by these volcanoes, under the Neogene lakes, formed a layer of tufa on the plateaus, which varied in hardness and was between 100 and 150m thick. Other substances in the layer are ignimbrite, soft tufa, tufa, lahar, ash, clay, sandstone, marn, basalt and other agglomerates.
Plateaus, having been essentially shaped with the lava from the bigger volcanoes, were continuously altered with the eruptions of smaller volcanoes. Starting in the Early Pliocene Period, the rivers in the area, especially Kizilirmak (the Red River), and local lakes contributed to the erosion of this layer of tufa stone, eventually giving the area its present day shape.
Another characteristic feature of the area is the sweeping curves on the sides of the valleys, formed by rainwater. The array of colors seen on some of the valleys is due to the difference in heat of the lava layers. Such patterns can be seen in Uchisar, Cavusin/ Güllüdere, Goreme/ Meskendir, Ortahisar/Kizilçukur and Pancarlik valleys.

This documentary produced by the KHS is a short historical overview depicting the building blocks of the Kent community, from its Franklin Mills origins to the eventual renaming of the city to Kent. The video illustrates the importance of the Cuyahoga River and the economic impact it had on the city. We get a brief view of the individuals that built the industries, mills, the canal and eventually the railroad. We find out that John Brown lived and briefly worked in Kent and that Kent was a stop on the underground railroad. The video brings us up to date with the businesses of today and ending with the growth of the Kent Normal School into what eventually became Kent State University.

I am very happy to announce that other two machiya of Kyo Machiya Miyabi - (Kiyomizu area 3 properties: Bairin-an, Shofu-an, Momiji-an) are opened in Sanjo-Kamanza near Nijo Castle and central position; they are almost 100 years old Kyoto townhouse: KAMIZA-AN on the upper level, and SHIMOZA-AN on the lower level of the house.
I really like Kyoto and to be owner of Machiya, Kyoto traditional townhouse, give me a chance to share the beauty of this city ' s culture with guests from all the world. I think if you stay in a traditional house, the approach to a different culture is more real and interesting, and the experience is deeper.
Also making the machiya a place where to stay means to preserve the townhouse and its traditional craft sides: the tatami, the sliding doors, the wood parts, etc. and to be spread to others to keep somehow the traditions alive.
I liked the typical 'eel' shape as called in Kyoto (the front side is not so wide and the house extends in length). I thought it could be so nice to preserve this townhouse and make our guests even for few days to live as Kyoto people lived for centuries with traditions plus a more today comfort in the daily house use.
The benefits of this townhouse is keeping the traditional sides and add some modern touch to satisfy our international guests needs, and also the location: in central Kyoto but in a quiet street. At five minutes walking distance there is Nijo Castle, where the Shogun lived, old more than 400 hundreds years. Many other places to visit are at a walking distance, like Rokkakudo Temple called the navel of Kyoto connected with the famous ikebana school Ikenobo, the Imperial Park, or colourfull Nishiki food market. Bus stops are very close as banks, post office, museums, art galleries, every kind of restaurants, cafes, bars...and more and more!
Thank you so much for your wonderful accommodation. Our family was really enjoy our time in Kyoto.
This is our first family trip to Japan. With two young children, this property was perfect for our needs. It is in a very quiet and safe neighborhood with no busy tourism stuff going on. Yet it is very convenient by being close to subway stations and major streets. There is also a small market just several minutes of walking from the rental property, which has milk, bread, eggs etc in case we need anything.
The house has the traditional charms and modern amenities. We enjoyed the shower particularly. The washer/dryer was definitely helpful when you have young kids traveling. It was very comfortable for the four of us with floor heating and air conditioning during a November stay.
Mariko is very responsive, friendly and helpful. She speaks fluent English which is a great help for our stay. Prior to our arrival, she gave us tips on how to travel to Kyoto etc. During our stay, she recommended restaurants and even helped to make reservations for us.
We have already recommended this property to several friends for their future consideration. We wish we had a longer stay to fully explore Kyoto and enjoy Shimoza-an.
Our first visit to Japan and to the beautiful city of Kyoto has given my wife and me enormous pleasure and its was an experience of a lifetime. A great part of the success of this incredible vacation was due to the quality and the location of the vacation house Shimoza-an and even more to our lovely host Mariko.
First things first: Mariko's presence was a joy on its own, she is to us the personification of 'das Land des Lächelns', Japan as 'the country of smiles'. Her omnipresent assistance, the abundant fountain of information, her accompanying us on an introductory walk in the neighbourhood, Mariko as help desk at the phone when we needed her during our Kyoto walks, her tips for interesting addresses and people (on our request she even took us to a carpenter in Arashiyama for a talk about wood carving and Japanese chisels and whetting stones), her visiting the vacation house to check if we needed something: Mariko has been our ever smiling personal guide, private shopping assistant and interpreter. Arigatissimo, Mariko. You are a jewel in Kyoto's crown!
We were lucky to stay in Shimoza-an for two weeks. And even after a brief Ryokan experience at the more than superb Shiraume Ryokan, we were glad to return to Shimoza-an, a large and comfortable renovated machiya close to Sanjo-dori. This is smack in the cosiest part of Kyoto city center and yet in an extremely quiet location in Kamanza-dori. No loud taxis during the night like in Gion, no drunk tourists, no unrealistic touristic surroundings like Gion, no crowds of school children shopping in souvenir and snack shops. This neighbourhood is real, with real Kyoto people, buying fruit at a local fruit stand, riding a bicycle to work or having a coffee at nearby Starbuck's. But also, the big shopping district is just a short walk away.
Do not hesitate: Shimoza-an is the ideal place for a vacation in this miraculous, fantastic, beautiful, easy going city of Kyoto.
My family recently spent a unforgettable fortnight at Shimoza-An and loved every minute of our stay. The property was conveniently located in a quiet, friendly neighbourhood with great restaurants and little cafes and bars yet it was only a short walk to the busy main streets and the subway/train station which made it so easy to get around. The house itself was a delight, so clean, comfortable and equipped with everything you could want, from the efficient, well stocked, modern kitchen to the luxurious bathtub looking out onto the tranquil garden. The decor was a pleasing mix of old and new, tatami mats, beautiful old chests and carved cabinet doors and then modern appliances, air conditioning, an impressive hi-tech toilet and a great Wi-Fi connection. I loved the sliding wooden doors and screens that allowed cooling breeze and dappled sunlight into the house.
The bedrooms were comfy and restful and had plenty of storage space and I loved the little welcoming touches of arranged flowers, ice in the freezer and a jug of green tea cooling in the refrigerator. Our charming hostess Mariko greeted us warmly on arrival and explained the features of the house and how to use all the appliances. She also provided interesting brochures on local sights, events etc, maps where she pointed out handy shops like supermarkets and convenience stores, and contact details should we need any help or advice. Her warm assurances that she was happy to deal with any query was very comforting to the travel weary and she kindly and unobtrusively checked in with us later in our stay, to ensure we were enjoying our holiday and had everything we needed.
We would highly recommend staying at Shimoza-An as it was not only a wonderfully relaxing house but it was lovely to feel part of the neighbourhood. Getting to know people in the local shops and exchanging greetings with the neighbours gave us a more personal experience of Kyoto and it's lovely people that will be treasured memories.
We stayed in Shimoza-an for 4 days, and it was absolutely lovely! Mariko was extremely helpful, providing us with great directions, maps, and suggestions for local restaurants. This property is incredibly charming, clean, convenient, and well-maintained. It's in a great location - near to many small boutique eateries, grocery stores, and convenience stores; surrounded by plenty of public transportation options; and within walking distance of a number of bike rental shops (I would highly recommend renting bikes! Our favorite times were riding through this very bike-friendly city, on the banks of the Kamo River or amongst the many other cyclist, pedestrians, and drivers on the way to the many gorgeous, but crowded, temples and shrines). I would recommend this machiya to anyone and everyone -we definitely want to come back and stay at Shimoza-an again! Staying in this townhouse is the perfect way to enjoy and feel a part of this magical city.
We had the great fortune of being able to book Shimoza-an during cherry blossom season, and had a wonderful stay here! I cannot say enough good things about this place. I spent six weeks traveling through Asia with my family, and this was, without a doubt, our favorite place that we stayed at. The house is beautiful, the beds are comfortable, and I still dream about the bathroom... I don't know if it was just because the weather was a bit chilly during our stay, but the shower at the end of the day, followed by a nice soak in the deep tub... It was something to look forward to! We found food, transportation, and attractions easily accessible from here. I have zero complaints, and already know where I want to stay next time I am lucky enough to find myself back in Kyoto.

In his #1 New York Times bestselling book, Zero to One, Peter Thiel presents his often contrarian ideas about competition, progress, technology, and finding value in unexpected placesto build a future that we have yet to dream, but that may someday become reality. In Developing the Developed World he brings these ideas to life, including his insights on how to create true innovations in the world of atomsnot just digits and bitsand how to foster a peaceful, prosperous and freer future marked by globalization in a world of limited resources.
Peter Thiel is Founder and Managing Member of Clarium Capital Management, LLC; Co-Founder of Paypal, Palantir Technologies, Mithril Capital Management, and Valar Ventures; Managing Partner of Founders Fund; and past President of Thiel Capital International and Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Confinity, Inc.

In 2004 he made the first outside investment in Facebook, where he serves as a director. The same year he co-founded Palantir Technologies, a software company that harnesses computers to empower human analysts in fields like security and global finance. He has provided early funding for LinkedIn, Yelp, RoboteX, Spotify, and dozens of successful technology startups. He is a co-founder and partner at Founders Fund, a venture capital firm that has funded companies like SpaceX and Airbnb. And in 2012 he co-founded Mithril Capital Management, an international technology investment fund.
Mr. Thiel started the Thiel Fellowship, which ignited a national debate by encouraging young people to put learning before schooling, and he leads the Thiel Foundation, which works to advance technological progress and long-term thinking about the future. He graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Stanford University, where he received an A.B. in philosophy and a J.D. from the Stanford University School of Law.

Is the U.S. Provoking an Arms Race in Space? Recorded: Tuesday, February 12, 2008
February 12, 2008
The Independent Institute, Oakland, CA
The 1967 Outer Space Treaty designated space for peaceful purposes as the province of all mankind. Virtually all spacefaring nations now favor a new treaty to accommodate major changes in geopolitics and military technology. The United States, however, has blocked negotiations, citing potential threats to U.S. rights, capabilities, and freedom of action. Some self-proclaimed space warriors even argue that U.S. military dominance in orbital space will be the only guarantee for international peace. But in Twilight War: The Folly of U.S. Space Dominance, Mike Moore, former editor of The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, argues that such American exceptionalism, Will not guarantee American security; it will guarantee conflict, and possibly, a new cold war. Come join us for a stimulating forum on what could be the most crucial national security issue of this century.
Mike Moore is Research Fellow at The Independent Institute, former editor of The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, and author of the book, Twilight War: The Folly of U.S. Space Dominance. He is the author of many articles on national security, conflict resolution, nuclear weapons and proliferation, space weaponry, and related topics. Mike has spoken at many professional conferences and meetings sponsored by scientific organizations and policy institutes.

sports day: Girls not allowed to run 400m
(112 Posts)Do you want to hear something jaw-droppingly outrageous?
School have sent out a message saying that due to health and safety concerns the sports day 400 m will become the 300 m race. Something about it being a sprint, a bit vague but ok. Fine. If you think it helps. Maybe it's connected to the hot weather?
Then, the email says that due to it being a sprint, and therefore posing a risk girls will not be allowed to run the 400m (now 300m) but boys will still be allowed.
What an awful example to set.
If girls run the 300m, do their heads fall off or something? Does anyone have any ideas why sprinting is more dangerous for girls?
I am so angry hat they think they can assume all boys are stronger/ better sprinters than all girls. I was awesome at the 400m at school and would have easily beaten most of the boys.
I'd like to send an email in reply, its going to be too late for this year but perhaps they can change their sexist attitude for next year? Any pointer of how I can sensitively call my employers sexist pigs? Many thanks!
Fair enough to change the race for everyone from 400m to 300m, but to ban girls from participating at all is dire.
The ages are staggered in line with advice on the adolescent growth spurt, particularly the effects of hormone levels on joint stability and development.
It is not just athletics that take this into account. The Imperial college of Teachers of Dance doesn't allow girls on point during this time either for the same reasons. Like wise the BGA has to put special steps in place for their gymnasts too.
I meant the person who named the school could remain anonymous ... was that not obvious?
I'm not really bothered if the schools named or not .. I've just googled to find any school that doesn't allow girls to run the 400/300m race but can't find one
I will accept it goes on though .. as of course wtf would anyone start a thread saying it does if it doesn't ... I just find it very hard to believe :/
If the person who started this thread is a teacher at the school as seems to be the case then naming the school wouldn't be a very good career move. It would t take much effort for the headmaster to work out the likely whistleblower.
Lets hope at least one parent whose child is at that school will question it then ...
Not obvious so much as naive, teetering, but don't worry, I can understand why you thought it might be possible.
It would be possible to name and shame anonymously
How utterly ridiculous.
The 400m is not a sprint race, it combines both anaerobic and aerobic fuel reserves.
I fail utterly to see why girls aren't allowed to participate in it, or indeed why it has been changed to 300m for boys. It's - as you say - quite jaw-dropping. Utterly offensive and retarded.
How many of you have actually run 400m as a young teen?
Yes, I have, several times. During the 1995 heatwave too. You're not supposed to go all out, you have to pace yourself. Of course you will wind up on the floor if you treat it the same way as a 100m sprint.
Huh, we see to start every sports lesson with a 400 m jog, then finish the lesson with a 400m sprint.
So x3 times a week for about 6 years
I'm pretty sure I did 400m runs (not sprints) as a teen. Hated it, but maybe that's why I remember.
OP, this sports day may have passed but are you in a position suggest something different for next year?
The 400m is not a sprint race
Yes it is. It's entirely possible not to run it as such but it is a classified as a sprint.

Tomaszów Lubelski [tɔˈmaʂuf luˈbɛlskʲi] (Ukrainian: Томашів, Tomashiv) is a town in south-eastern Poland with 20,261 inhabitants (2004). Situated in the Lublin Voivodeship (since 1999), previously in Zamość Voivodeship (1975-1998), near Roztocze National Park. It is the capital of Tomaszów Lubelski County.
The town was founded at the end of the 16th century by Jan Zamoyski as Jelitowo. It is known by its current name since 1613 when it was renamed after Zamoyski's son, Tomasz. It obtained its city charter in 1621. The area around the city saw serious fighting in 1914 during World War I. Throughout its history the town had a significant Jewish community, which numbered over 5,000 in 1939 at the outbreak of World War II, making up half its population. The town was bombed and found itself under the German occupation following the invasion of Poland in 1939. In the course of the Holocaust, the Nazi Germans first placed the Jews in a ghetto established in the town, then exterminated them in 1942 at Belzec death camp located a few kilometers south of the town.
In the town there are two faculties of Catholic University of Lublin (Legal and Economic Sciences).[1] It has two high schools (Bartosz Głowacki High School and Władysław Sikorski High School), three technical colleges, two gymnasiums and two primary schools.
International Folk Festival Roztocze is a popular annual music festival organized since 1990. Since 2008 the town council organizes reconstructions of Battle of Tomaszów.
Tomaszów is a home for the soccer team Tomasovia.
There are two main newspapers published weekly in Tomaszów Lubelski. First of them, ReWizje Tomaszowskie, is financed by the town council. Second of them, Tygodnik Tomaszowski, belongs to a private company.

Her slump, if you want to call it like this, begun with her last clay court match vs Kanepi in Biarritz. Till then she played a real good clay season.
But after changing to hard court she lost her form and hasn't found it yet. Although I realise her motivation it wasn't helpful to travel to China but of course you always know it better afterwards.
I was wrong when I said she would play Fleurus in Belgium coz if she has to play doubles she won't be able. In my view not good coz it would be more important to improve her singles.
I think the opposite...hoping it will be good for MM to have a week or so in New York awaiting her doubles, maybe a chance to relax a little in between the training....? Rather than rushing from one tournament to another ? Who knows ? We all agree on one thing, hope to see Mandy winning again soon!

Best Danielle White Poems
Born of glaciers, rivers flow, turquoise ice and untouched snow, deep green valleys far below, ancient stands of hardwoods grow. Icy rivers running deep, through the mountain's midnight sleep, darkened waters crest and leap, earthbound secrets rivers keep. Stoically the mountains stand, nurturing the age-old land, born before mere time began, when Earth was pure, devoid of man. River rocks were once rough stone, water-smoothed, by eons honed, each grain of sand is sand alone, truths unspoken lie unknown. Listen to the waters speak, every river, ocean, creek, there lie answers all must seek, flowing from the mountain's peak. ©copyright2009DanielleWhite

At Least 15 Dead In Suicide Bombing At Russian Train Station
VOLGOGRAD, Russia (CBSNewYork/AP) — A deadly suicide bombing in Russia has raised security concerns for the Winter Olympics.
As CBS 2's Andrea Grymes reported, at least 15 people were killed when the bomb detonated at a railway terminal in Volgograd, 400 miles from the Sochi site where the games will be held in just over a month.
A security camera captured the explosion that tore through the train station in southern Russia.
Government officials said it was set off by a suicide bomber, who detonated the twenty pound device at a moment the station was packed with people.
Victims were killed by flying shrapnel in a massive blast that blew out the building's doors.
One woman said she made a narrow escape, leaving the station just moments before the bomb went off.
"I saw people running; shattered glass and broken doors," she said. "I saw smoke, but I didn't understand what was going on."
As of Sunday night, nobody had claimed responsibility for the bombing. But it came several months after Chechen rebel leader Doku Umarov called for new attacks against civilian targets in Russia, including the Sochi Games, CBS News reported.
Umarov's call came in July. He urged his followers to use "maximum force" to stop the games from taking place.
Two months ago, a female suicide bomber targeted a bus in Volgograd, killing six people.
But the Russian Government insisted there would not be any security problems in Sochi, promising the safest Olympics in history.
The Russian government said it will deploy tens of thousands of soldiers, police officers, and security personnel to protect the games.
There was no immediate announcement from the NYPD Sunday on whether security on public transportation or city streets would be heightened as a result of the bombing.

When you think of the 80's....
how does it make you feel? I feel sad.I miss my youth,the fun,not having responsibilities.I miss the music,tv shows and my friends.Most of all I miss having my parents still with me.
i miss my father most of all. the feeling of not worrying about things being carefree and hanging out with friends. oh to be young again
You made my heart squeeze when you said that about your parents. I know that day is coming soon for me, too. ((hugs))
When I think of the '80's, I remember with fond melancholy...
My first boyfriend...and first kiss.
Getting contact lenses and ditching my "geeky" glasses.
Saying goodbye when my best friend since I was four moved away.
Mom and Dad splitting up.
My first experience with a boy.
My first real love and break up.
My parents (reunited) moving away and me staying behind.
My true love and marriage.
Laying awake one night realizing I was really on my own and independent. An epiphany moment; that was. I was scared out of my mind.
Beginning my apprenticeship in the career of my lifetime.
Buying my first brand-new car. (We still own that 1989 beauty.)

I used an extended socket wrench to take the cover off and then pulled the hoses from the water filter housing, used the socket wrench to remove the cracked water filter housing and put on the new on. Put the two hoses back on and then put the cover back on and that was it. The part was $34 with shipping. Works great now and saved me a lot of money on a service call!!

here's another problem i'm working on: http://i475.photobucket.com/albums/r...de0flife/2.jpg
i've got a few adv. linear algebra problems that i need to do, but i'm not real knowledgeable on representation theory.
here is the first and easiest problem of the bunch: problem #1
also, with that i need to find the trace and norm of 2 - 3i.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
here's another problem i'm working on: http://i475.photobucket.com/albums/r...de0flife/2.jpg
ok, this problem has given me the most trouble so far. i'm not really sure where to start:
and again, i still haven't been able to solve this problem: http://i475.photobucket.com/albums/r...de0flife/2.jpg
since is a finite group, the order of is finite, i.e. for some integer now if is an eigenvalue of then for some non-zero vector
thus hence so every eigenvalue of is a root of unity and thus now is an eigenvalue of if and only if
for some vector if and only if i.e. if and only if is an eigenvalue of so if are the eigenvalues of then the
eigenvalues of are: therefore:
the reason that i haven't answered that question is that it's quite long and, well, you should do some of the questions yourself!
anyway, for part (a), you need to use the definition of to prove two things:
1) or as the notation in your problem is an automorphism of for any this proves that is well-defined.
2) for any which will prove that is a homomorphism and thus a representation of
You're right. I should be doing these questions on my own, and i've spent hours focusing on this problem alone and haven't really gotten anywhere with it. I've even done a little research on Representation theory and i can't seem to find what i need to be able to solve this question.

Space pirate
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the stock character. For other uses, see Space pirate (disambiguation).
Space pirates are a type of stock characters from science fiction.
They operate as pirates in outer space and travel by spacecraft, as opposed to the more traditional pirates on the high seas of Earth, who travel by ship. However, just as traditional seafaring pirates target sailing ships, space pirates serve a similar role in sci-fi media: they capture and plunder spaceships for cargo, loot and occasionally they steal the entire ship itself, and kill the crewmembers. However, their dress and speech may vary; it may correspond to the particular author's vision of the future, rather than their seafaring precursors. On the other hand, space pirates may be modeled after stereotypical sea pirates.

This family-owned restaurant west of downtown has charm and integrity. Come hungry as the pasta portions are unbelievable. You can ask for a half order and still have food for the next few days. Bella Notte serves everything from Chicken Vesuvio to Zuppa di Pesce over Capellini. It has a charming, old-world feel with a wonderful mix of clientele and more than a hint of old Chicago when Al Capone was in charge.

LOS ANGELES, CaliforniaTheres an extra reason to watch Brad Pitts beautiful, exquisite film, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.
Shiloh, the daughter of Brad and Angelina Jolie, makes her movie debut with a cameo appearance. Speaking to reporters last Saturday morning at the Warner Bros. lot in Burbank, Brad explained how Shiloh snagged a short scene from the twin toddlers who were alternately playing his daughter in Benjamin Button.
Babies have their own schedule, he said. Sometimes theyre upset and thats it. We had one particular day where both twins who were in the film were crying and colic or something. Time was going by. We were sitting and waiting so we just sat Shiloh in. Shes in one of the little shots. I think they digitally changed the color of her hair.
Last Monday evening, at a private cocktail party in Century City following the premiere of Benjamin Button, Angelina Jolies eyes sparkled when we mentioned Shilohs brief debut.
Fate couldnt have decided on a more significant movie for Shiloh to debut in. Benjamin Button will rank as one of her dads best films. The movie, directed by David Fincher (Se7en, Fight Club, The Panic Room) and written by Eric Roth, was based on F. Scott Fitzgeralds short story of the same name. Fitzgeralds tale of a man aging backward was inspired by a Mark Twain quote: Life would be infinitely happier if we could only be born at the age of 80 and gradually approach 18.
Significant progress in head placement and digital effects made it possible for David to show Brad going from a man born in his eighties who is growing younger as the story develops. Cate Blanchett, brilliant as usual, Tilda Swinton, Taraji P. Henson, Julia Ormond, Jason Flemyng, Jared Harris and Elias Koteas are also in the cast of this film set from the end of World War I to the 21st century.
The most difficult part was just keeping track of the math, admitted Brad, who looked sharp in a bold print-on-print three-piece suit by Tom Ford. He explained, Literally, we had to have someone on the set who had to remind us before the takes and who would say, for example, Benjamin appears 67 now so hes actually 14.
Pure honesty
As far as my approach is concerned, it was just about pure honesty for me; just how honest we can be with it, he continued. Fincher described it really well when we started. It was about the story of a mans life and the people who leave dents along the waypeople who make impressions. I always carried that with me ... Fortunately, we had some fantastic actors from Cate, Tilda, Taraji, Jared to Jason so ... I didnt have to push anything up a hill, so to speak.
My knees are starting to go, he said in half-jest about how he related to his characters aged appearance in the beginning of the film. But as the movie progresses, as Benjamin gets younger-looking, David, aided by cinematographer Claudio Miranda, photographs Brad in what will probably be among the stars most iconic cinematic images. The golden boy images of Robert Redford in The Great Gatsby come to mind.
Asked if the films recurring themes of life and death prompted him to think about his mortality, Brad answered, The thing I walked away with is that time is short. I have to make sure I dont waste those moments in any kind of pettiness, bitterness, laziness and so on. I surround myself with whats most important to me and with those people who are most important to me.
He added, When we began the film, David had already dealt with the death of his father. Eric had dealt with the death of his mother. About a month into shooting, Angies mother passed away so it was this idea of mortality (that permeated this film).
Waste no time
The actor, who turns 45 next week, stressed, It makes me want to not waste any time because Im in a company I really, really love.
I had a friend who worked at a hospice and he said something really interesting, Brad volunteered. He said people in their last moments do not discuss their successes, awards, trophies, what books they wrote, what they did, what they accomplished. They only talk about their loves and regrets. I think thats very telling.
Proof that the Jolie-Pitt kids are so used to their mom and pop as actors is that they were not surprised to see Brad made-up as an old man (the process took almost five hours each morning) on the set. My kids werent thrown by it at all, he said. They came up and didnt even notice. I thought that was really interesting (laughter). Its still daddy and they didnt comment on it in any way, especially the youngest ones.
Prompted for an update on the joys and difficulties of raising twins Vivienne and Knox and how he helps Angelina, Brad said, Well, its really double the pleasure. One (baby) seemed simple and twins are just double the fun. What do I do? I pitch in. Im fairly good with a diaper and all that.
Brood of six
As for the matter of having a brood of six young kids, the daddy pointed out, Its really important that everyone gets their individual time and group time so its a big focus of ours. Some of the nights can get long. The babies are starting to sleep through the night now so it just works.
On the familys French language lessons, he admitted, She (Angelina) is ahead. My synapses seem to have shut down. Im struggling. My seven-year-old rips it. Hes fantastic. Its really humiliating but were really proud of him. So Im in ecole (laughter) and it sounds about like that. Merci beaucoup.
Its a nice way of life there, Brad declared about living part of the time in the South of France. We were looking for a place where our kids could run free and not be hassled. They seem to care less about us there so its a nice relationship with us and the area.
But home right now is Berlin while Brad is doing Inglorious Bastards with Quentin Tarantino. When we told him about Quentins impressive knowledge about certain Filipino films made in the 60s and 70s, Brad commented that he was just as amazed with the directors knowledge of world cinema. The actor appeared very excited about Inglorious , which he described as outrageous and Its the World War II film to end all World War II films.
Gold ring band
Brad, who wore a gold band on the ring finger of his right hand, was informed that in Germany, such ring placement meant he was married. He playfully pretended to begin moving the ring as he asked, Is that right? But he added, So be it.
When a journalist asked Brad if he agreed with what Angelina told us in a recent interview that theyre not quite done yet having more kids, he replied with a smile, We havent found any reason not to yet. It is chaos at moments but theres such joy in the house. I look down and theres our boy from Vietnam, our daughter from Ethiopia, our girl who was born in Namibia, our son whos from Cambodia and they are brothers and sisters, man. They are like blood relations and it is such a sight that make us feel elated. Given that with our jobs, we have the capability to also give someone a home, provide a home Let me tell you, its selfish too because the reward has been extraordinary so no, we havent found any reason to stop yet.
How do mom and dad get a minute alone? Mom and dad are creative, Brad said with a grin. Then he said with a laugh, There are some dry spells. There are a few moments in the desert but mom and dad get very creative and were good. We have our ways.

Hello, I am trying to play Pokemon FireRed on the VisualBoyAdvance, but whenever I try to do so, the game tells me that the IBS Sub-Circuit Board is not installed or something to that effect. It's making it so I can't save my game. This wouldn't be an issue were it not for the fact that this means I can't do anything after beating the Elite Four. Is there any way to fix this?

How To
Massage Sore Muscles
OverviewTo relieve pain, don't just randomly poke and rub, says Amber Davies, a massage therapist and coauthor of The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook.
1. Your Lower Back Aches From SittingPlace a tennis ball between your right side (a few inches above your hip) and a wall. Shift your weight to your left leg and bend your right knee. Turn away from the wall so the ball rolls toward your spine. Turn back. Repeat five times. Move the ball an inch lower and repeat. Once you reach your tailbone, work your left side.
2. Your Chest is Tight From WeightliftingDo this after a shower, when your muscles are loose: Place a tennis ball between a doorjamb and your chest, an inch below your collarbone. Roll the ball horizontally toward your sternum and back five times. Drop the ball an inch and repeat down to your lowest rib.
3. Running Gives You Foot TwingesWhile seated, press a golf ball into the pad of your foot and roll it side to side 10 times. Gently roll the ball from the center of your toes to the center of your heel, then to the right and left of the center tendon; repeat five times. Turn your foot in; roll the ball from your big toe to your heel five times.

GRAND BLANC TOWNSHIP, Michigan — It's been a strange 2009 season for Michael Letzig.
Michael Letzig:
But all of those regular paychecks have him only 89th on the Tour's money list, only four spots higher than he finished last year when he ended up 93rd.
The difference has been his inability to rise above the middle of the pack on a regular basis this year. His only top-10 finish of the year came last week with a tie for eighth in the Canadian Open, whereas last year he cracked the top 10 five times.
"It's been a long year," Letzig said. "If you look at the money list, I haven't made as much as you should when you make all those cuts. Last year I missed a lot of cuts — I think I made half of them — but when I did play well I had some top 10s."Letzig has put himself in position for a huge payday after two rounds of the Buick Open at Warwick Hills Golf and Country Club.
He shot 7-under-par 65 Friday, vaulting him to the top of the leaderboard after the morning round at 12-under. He led by one shot over Vaughn Taylor, who shot 4-under 68 Friday.
Letzig has gone through some equipment changes, but the most significant change may have been hiring his brother, Darren, as his caddy.
The move has helped Letzig relax on the golf course.
"It's starting to come together," Letzig said. "We just have a lot of fun out there. We have very similar personalities. He caddied for me most of the year on the Nationwide Tour when I played so well."
Letzig started on No. 10 Friday and played well on the back nine, making three birdies in a four-hole stretch between Nos. 11 and 14. After a bogey on No. 18, he made the turn and birdied the first three holes on the front nine. He added birdies on Nos. 7 and 8 for a 31 on the front.
"I made some real nice putts out there today, but I think that falls back to the driving," Letzig said. "I'm hitting it so far down there, getting a lot of wedges in my hand. I'm really able to fire at a lot of flag sticks."

Taunggyi (Burmese: တောင်ကြီးမြို့; MLCTS: taung kri: mrui. [tàʊɴdʑí mjo̰]; Shan: ဝဵင်းတွင်ႇၵျီး [weŋ tɔŋ kji]), is the capital of Shan State, Myanmar. Taunggyi has an estimated population of 345,593 as of 2013,[1] making it the fifth largest city in Myanmar (with Pathein, Mawlamyine),[1] and is at an elevation of 4,712 feet (1,436 m) above sea level. The name Taunggyi means "huge mountain" in the Burmese language, and is named after the ridge on the east of the city, part of the Shan Hills system, whose prominent high point is called Taung-chun or "The Spur." Locally this spur is popularly known as Phaya Taung. The ridge has a more prominent and more popular feature known as Chauk Talone, meaning the Craigs.
Although within the Shan State, the Shans are not the predominant population of this city. The Inthas and the Pa-Ohs, who are also the original inhabitants of the Shan Plateau, form the most visible population. They however are culturally and linguistically different from the Shan. Recently there has been a flood of Chinese immigrants. Taunggyi lies within the Myelat region of Shan State.
Prior to British colonisation, Taunggyi was a small village of a few huts. The area lay on a wide shoulder of the Sittaung Hills of the Shan Hills and was populated by the Shan ethnicity at the time. The signs of the original village of Taunggyi are long gone, but nearby villages can still be discerned quite easily.
During British occupation, the town became the chief city and capital of the Southern Shan States. Taunggyi's modern development began in 1894, when the British moved their administrative offices from Maing Thauk (Fort Stedman) on the eastern shores of Inle Lake to the higher elevation of Taunggyi, for health and geographical reasons. Although geographically within the state of Yawnghwe, the town was denoted as a "notified area" by the British, exempt from the Sawbwa's administration. By 1906, there existed a thousand houses. Because of civil unrest throughout the Shan States during the early 1900s, Taunggyi served as the chief garrison for military police. Taunggyi also served as a supply centre for the Shan States, and catered to persons of many nationalities.
Taunggyi has a humid subtropical climate (Köppen climate classification Cwa). Temperatures are very warm throughout the year, although the winter months (December–February) are milder and nights can be quite cool. There is a winter dry season (December–March) and a summer wet season (April–November). It is commonly believed that the local weather is one of the nicest in the whole country.

The main access to Taunggyi is by the mountainous road. A railway line that passes through Taunggyi was recently built in 1995, but at the moment it offers no passenger service to Taunggyi. Regular railway passenger service to the rest of the country is through the town of Shwenyaung, 12 miles (19 km) to the west. The nearest airport is in the town of Heho, 24 mi (39 km) about an hour driving distance, by road to the west of Taunggyi.
Taunggyi is the melting pot for the Myelat area of the Shan State. In addition to the indigenous Pa-O and Intha, there is a significant population of Shans, Bamars, other native ethnic minorities, as well as Gurkha, Chinese and Burmese Muslims. Like in most of Myanmar, influence of Buddhism is most evidenced by the monasteries scattered throughout the city. However, being a relatively new city, the monasteries are not of historical significance and architecturally not unique. There is also a significant Christian population, as the center of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Taunggyi the St. Joseph's Cathedral and its associated seminary are the main facilities, as well as a Baptist church, both established by early missionaries. There is also a smaller Anglican church, which originally served the British administrators, but recently it has fallen into a state of disrepair. Four mosques serve the Muslim population of the city, Myo Oo Pali, A Lae Pali and Taung Pali are for large population of Burmese Muslims, and Panthay Pali for the Chinese Panthay Muslims. There are also a few temples serving the Chinese Buddhist community.
The Taunggyi area is a popular tourist destination. The city itself has an interesting five-day market, where farmers from around the area would come to the Taunggyi on market day and sell fresh produce in the open market, but with more development of the city, the significance of market day has been lessened. However, the market-day tradition continues strong in the outlying small towns. Nearby, Inle Lake is the home of the unique Intha culture. Inlay is famous for its traditional crafts industry and floating markets that are accessible via traditional longboats. The drive to the Pindaya Caves provides a good view of the Myelat country. Near Taunggyi, in Kekku ကက္ကူ, one can see the local pagoda, whose hundreds of stupas date back to 16th century.
There is no significant industry in Taunggyi. It used to be the trans-shipment point for many of the agricultural products of southern Shan State. However, due to recently imposed zoning regulations, most of these operations have been moved to the surrounding new town of Ayetharyar.
Being the capital of the Shan State, Taunggyi hosts many government offices. There is a museum in town which has displays on the Shan culture, as well as items of historical interest, such as belongings of the Sawbwas. The city is also the headquarters of Eastern Command of the Tatmadaw (Burmese Army), and the army occupies a significant portion of the northeast area of the city.
The city is home to the Taunggyi Education College and Taunggyi University.

Holt-Crossman determined to lift game
A new day, a new game. That is the way Echuca's Erik Holt-Crossman will approach today's Goulburn Valley Junior Championships matches after a mixed opening day yesterday at Shepparton Lawn Tennis Club.
HANNAH DRISCOLL January 3, 2013 4:10amEchuca's Erik Holt-Crossman won his two singles matches yesterday, but hoped to improve on his performances.
A new day, a new game. That is the way Echuca's Erik Holt-Crossman will approach today's Goulburn Valley Junior Championships matches after a mixed opening day yesterday at Shepparton Lawn Tennis Club.
Holt-Crossman won both his matches to advance to the third round of the 16-and-under singles draw, but it was not in convincing fashion.
He dropped the opening set of the day before prevailing against Corey De Zoysa 3-6 6-1 6-3.
In the second round, the fourth seed comfortably won the first set against Simon Thomas, but Thomas fought back in the second set.
It went to a tie-break before Holt-Crossman eventually won, 6-2 7-6 (7-5).
Holt-Crossman, who plays with Rich River in the Goulburn-Murray Lawn Tennis Association's Premier One competition, was his own harshest critic when assessing yesterday's performances.
Not having the confidence to go for shots, not hitting the ball properly and failing to move his feet well were all areas he identified which let him down.
Holt-Crossman said he would reflect on his performances last night to try and improve today.
''Once I figure out what I'm doing wrong, I'll try to come tomorrow with that mind frame that I need to do this and this to be able to do that and that,'' Holt-Crossman said.
''I probably came here this morning thinking 'Oh yeah' it's just another match, but tomorrow morning hopefully I'll come here really pumped and go from the start rather than just slack off like today.''
Holt-Crossman won the 16-and-under Shepparton Junior Classic title early last month at Shepparton Lawn and made the consolation final last week at the Sungold Junior Grasscourt Open in Warrnambool, a silver junior tour event, but had to pull out due to a knee injury.
He said he had played well at the tournament, but could not carry that form into yesterday's games.
''I lost the first set and thought 'Yeah I deserve that' because I wasn't playing well at all, but (De Zoysa) was playing well. Credit to him, he won the set and he deserved it,'' Holt-Crossman said.
''I came out in the second set and said 'Better pick up here otherwise I'm going to lose this' and did that and just managed to play it well enough to win the set and the third set.
''In my second match I started off well, won the first one pretty easily, and then just slacked off in the second set.''
Holt-Crossman dropped his first service game of the second set to love and trailed 2-4 before levelling.
He said he felt fatigued in the second set and was anxious not to let the match go to a decider because he felt he would be ''struggling'' in a third.
''The opponents were quite good and I probably didn't play at my personal best, but hopefully I can think about it tonight and come back tomorrow and play better tennis,'' he said.
