Since AspectWerkz 2.x an Eclipse plugin is provided. This one is largely a beta version, but in any way it will change your Eclipse project configuration, so it is safe to give it a try, come with feedback on the mailling lists and enrole for contribution.
Getting the AspectWerkz Eclipse plugin
Use the Eclipse manager to install from our update site.
Open Eclipse, use the Help > Software Update > Find and Install menu.
Select Search for new features to install.
Click New remote site
Name it AspectWerkz, and use the following URL: *http://aspectwerkz.codehaus.org/downloads/eclipse*
Follow the procedure to install it.
The latest version is 2.0.4 for AW 2.0.RC1 and later, released on Déc 20, 2004.
Tested on Eclipse 3.0 and 3.1M4
Enabling / Disabling AspectWerkz IDE support
In the package explorer, open the Java project for which you want to activate the AspectWerkz IDE support.
Right click on it. You should see a Enable AspectWerkz AOP menu. Select it.
AspectWerkz IDE support will be from now on activated for this project.
You can later on remove it by right-clicking again and using the Disable AspectWerkz AOP menu (if you do, tell us why !)
The plugin is generating traces in the Error Log view. You can display it thru the menu Window > Show view > Error log.
Some more log might be in the .metadata/*.log file in your Eclipse Workspace root.
Project dependencies
Since we are about to use AspectWerkz, the project should contains the AspectWerkz 2.x (at least 2.0.RC2) in its classpath and the dependencies (concurrent, trove, qdox and alike - see the distribution), and the AspectWerkz Java 1.4 jar file to deal with Java 1.4 annoations.
Activating AspectWerkz support will not interfere with your configuration so you have to do it manually just as usual.
Annotation support
The plugin contains the AspectWerkz Java 1.4 annotation compiler. Annotations that you will write in JavaDoc and that are known by the framework (like @Before, @Expression, @Around etc) will be compiled as the code gets compiled (clean build, or incremental build when you save your Java file).
Custom annotations
AspectWerkz provides custom annotation support. For this to work in the plugin, it is mandatory to declare the annotations interface implementations just as usual in a dedicated file (see the documentation - http://aspectwerkz.codehaus.org/annotations.html#Compiling_Annotations).
There are 2 requirements:
- the file(s) must in the project classpath (can be in the project itself or within a dependency jar file)
- the file(s) must (all) be named annotation.properties
A common practice is to have the project annotation.properties file in the <project>/src/annotation.properties location.
AOP weaving
For weaving to occur, the system needs to know which class is an aspect. Just as usual, this is done
thru the META-INF/aop.xml descriptor.
There is no requirements for this part. You just need to have one or more META-INF/aop.xml file in your classpath - be it the project itself or within a dependency jar file that may contains bundled aspects.
A common practice is to have the project aop.xml file in the <project>/src/META-INF/aop.xml location.
When you save a file, Eclipse will trigger a build that will trigger the weaving, based on the available META-INF/aop.xml file(s) and compiled annoation that defines the aspects
AOP cross cutting view support
When the weaving has occured, markers will display where advices are/may be applied using a gutter marker.
The markers contain rich information that will inform you why there is a (or several) joinpoints on this specific line of source code.
Hit CTRL + 1 to make the Quick fix tips appear. It will show you which advice is affecting the joinpoint, and the type of advice (before / around / after returning / after throwing / after finally). If the information starts with a question mark "?" it means that the advice execution depends on a runtime check, like a "cflow" evaluation, or a "target is an instance of X" test.
When you select an advice and hit RETURN you will jump to the source code of that advice if available.
Running your application from within Eclipse
You can decide to run the application just as a regular Java application, since the classes have been compiled by Eclipse thus weaved by the plugin.
The META-INF/aop.xml files will be discovered at startup time, though you can point to a specific one using the "-Daspectwerkz.definition.file=.." JVM option as usual (see docs - http://aspectwerkz.codehaus.org/deployment.html)
If you do, the dependancies in third parties jar file will not be weaved since those are not part of your Java project source code.
To circumvent that, you should use AspectWerkz "online mode" ie load time weaving.
The plugin provides a trick to make this easier to deal with.
For it to work, you must add the Java tools.jar dependency to your project (it is in JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar)
In the package explorer, right click on your "main class" that you would like to run.
Select Run > Run...
Select the AspectWerkz Application configuration* style, right click and select New.
Run it from there as you would do for any regular application.
You should see a new line on system out: AspectWerkz - INFO - Pre-processor org.codehaus.aspectwerkz.transform.AspectWerkzPreProcessor loaded and initialized which confirms that the online mode is turned on.
Sample Eclipse project
To give it a try, you can use the sample project at http://aspectwerkz.codehaus.org/downloads/eclipse/aspectwerkz-eclipse-demo.zip
Known issues in this beta.
When you modify an aspect, the weaving of target classes is not triggered thus the markers are not updated. You need to wait the next time you change your target class, or you need to trigger a clean build manually.
When you trigger a clean build and the project contains both aspects and classes to be weaved, it may happen that the classes are not weaved. This happens when the aspect is defined with annotations, since the weaving of the target class may happen before the annotation compiler runs on the aspect. Trigger another clean build for now.

Why do you not consider the eclipse tecnoly CME project?
It claim to be an AOP development platform (AOSD).
Best regards
I'm using this plugin with Eclipse 3.1, and I noticed that everytime I build the project that is AW-enabled, the RAM used by Eclipse increases. And it keeps increasing each build until I finally restart Eclipse. That doesn't happen when building the other projects in the same workspace.
It's just me?
Thanks for the great tool.
Eclipse 3.1.2 M5, when trying to enable AW AOP in a project.

I tried to use the AspectWerkz plug-in with Eclipse 3.4 but i have got the error :
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.eclipse.jdt.internal.core.JavaModel.getTarget(...
I think that the plug-in containing the class JavaModel is not supported anymore in eclipse.
Is there a fix to the AspectWerkz plug-in to be used with new versions of eclipse ?
Thank you
I have a project with aspectWerkz, i got the plugin in my eclipse 3.7 , i tried to run your sample project "aw-demo", but, i have a problem in weaving: "Launch configuration WeavingClassLoader references non-existing project aw-demo."
plz answer me,

Havelock Mayor Jimmy Sanders may have summed it up best.
"What a great day to be a Ram," he told a crowd of students, staff, dignitaries and residents at a state championship football celebration Friday at Havelock High School.
Sanders, as well as Havelock commissioners George Liner and Will Lewis, were on hand to read a city proclamation honoring the team as well as present players and coaches pendants for winning the state 3A championship on Dec. 1.
"I feel confident we'll be back here next year," Sanders told the crowd.
Coaches presented players with conference, eastern regional and state championship medals and also handed out special year-end awards, including most improved as well as most valuable offensive player and most valuable defensive player. The overall player of the year award went to quarterback and safety Pharoh Cooper.
Havelock High football coach Jim Bob Bryant also received an award for being named Coastal 3A Conference coach of the year.
"This should really be coaches of the year because of all the work of my assistant coaches," Bryant told the crowd. "The head coach is only as good as his assistant coaches and his players, and I believe I've got the best assistant coaches in the state, and we know we have the best players in the state."
Bryant went on to thank the school's administration, faculty and staff, cheerleaders, band, parents and community for all the support the team received during its 15-1 season.
He made a special mention of the Ram Rowdies, the Havelock High students who cheer at each game. Bryant said Twitter had been alive with fan comments prior to the Dec. 1 state championship game against Concord, and he particularly remembers the students shouting toward the Concord side of the field near the end of Havelock's 55-21 victory, "check your twitter."
"I usually don't hear that stuff during the game because I'm busy coaching, but I heard that," Bryant said. "You guys did a great job all year."
Dubbed the "Back in Black, Back to Back" celebration, the event featured music from the Havelock High band as well as cheers from the cheerleaders.
Dignitaries included Craven County commissioners Scott Dacey, Lee K. Allen and Theron McCabe, who made note that he wore No. 22 when he played running back for Havelock High in 1965. The group also honored the team with a proclamation.
"You have once again brought great pride to Craven County," Dacey said. "We can't thank you enough."
Lane Mills, superintendent of Craven County Schools, stood up to speak but instead simply saluted the team by holding up his hands to form an 'H' in what has become a team symbol.
Bryant noted the accomplishments of the Havelock High football seniors, who have gone 31-1 in the last two seasons with back-to-back state championships. He also noted that the junior varsity team has had perfect 10-0 seasons the past two years.
The Rams celebrated the state title on the last Friday before Christmas break last season, and did the same thing again this year. With that in mind, Bryant had a special message for the crowd.
"We want you to get real used to coming in here the last Friday before Christmas," he said. "We plan on doing this for the next 20 years."

Get em' while they're hot.
Tickets for the West Point Green Wave and Brookhaven Panthers 5A state championship game are now on sale right here in West Point. Tickets are on sale for $12, which is $1 cheaper than purchasing the tickets at the gate.
Purchasing the tickets from West Point High, at the discounted rate, will help the school, as revenue from the sales goes back to West Point High.
Saturday night's game, which is scheduled to kickoff at 7 p.m. at Veteran's Memorial Stadium in Jackson will feature the six-time state champions Green Wave team against the 2004 4A state champions of Brookhaven.
Tickets can be bought at two locations. The high school's athletics office at the North Campus has the passes, as well as the school district's central office.
"We would appreciate a lot of fan support," said athletics secretary Audrey Randall. "We consider this to be a family thing, and we are very appreciative of all of the fan support."
While purchasing tickets from the athletics office, fans can also pick up 2009 and 2010 Green Wave fan gear, including t-shirts, sweatshirts and hats at discounted prices.
For those wishing to spend the night in Jackson, the athletics office has a list of hotels that are offering discounted rates for those attending the championship games this weekend. Those rates start at $50 a night and range to $109.

Kinston-area residents are invited to a 5 p.m. tree-lighting ceremony Friday on the steps of the Lenoir County Courthouse.
Adrian King, executive director of Pride of Kinston, said "the quiet lighting of the tree" will be held in the stead of the many outdoor events planned for the sixth annual Holly Days celebration, which was rained out Tuesday.
"We're sorry that the weather took some of the excitement out of the event, however the symbolism is still alive and well," King said. "I appreciate all those who were willing to step forward and participate in it, particularly the bands and the community groups."
King said "the community is invited to watch the tree come alive" Friday, when Kinston Mayor B.J. Murphy will push down a plunger "to light up all of downtown."
Murphy was scheduled to hit the plunger Tuesday during a tree-lighting ceremony flush with performances by school bands, singing — even Disney Princesses.
Once the Christmas tree and trees along Queen Street were lit, holiday revelers would have proceeded to Herritage Street for more music, shopping, children's entertainment and horse-and-buggy-rides.
King said the entire event could not be re-scheduled because of the high number of participants and the difficulty of reworking all of their schedules.
"We start planning for (Holly Days) in the summer and to be able to reproduce this thing in a short amount of time — and certainly before the Christmas parade — is going to be nearly impossible," he explained.
Kinston's annual downtown Christmas parade is scheduled for Dec. 8.
The indoor portion of Holly Days, "Christmas YesterYear" at the Kinston-Lenoir County Public Library, went on as scheduled Tuesday.
Participants enjoyed punch, cookies, gingerbread house crafts and Charles Dickens-era storytelling.
"It was a wonderful night and there were a lot of people there," King said.

I always assumed that Bumble & Bumble products were quite good. However, I see a lot of the stuff made by this company listed in Total Beauty's "Worse" category. Bumble & Bumble also isn't as cheap as other drugstore brands, and if I had spent $18.95 on a product that got terrible reviews like this hair powder, I wouldn't be a happy camper.

PDT Staff Writer
Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine says he wants to use the success Scioto County has had in dealing with the drug epidemic as a springboard for his statewide program. Portsmouth was DeWine's first stop in what will be his planned Attorney General's Drug Abuse Community Forum series, and he spoke exclusively with the Daily Times about what he hoped to take away from that forum held Wednesday at The Counseling Center on Court Street.
"I think Scioto County is really a model of a community that was devastated, and continues to be hit hard by drugs," DeWine said. "But it is fighting back. And what we heard today is the comment - 'we all came together. We worked together. We broke down this old way of looking at things.' One department would deal with one problem and another department would deal with another problem, and no one talked to each other. We broke that down."
Several people spoke at the event including State Representative Terry Johnson (R-McDermott), Ed Hughes, CEO of Compass Community Health, Lisa Roberts RN of the Portsmouth Health Department, and anti-prescription drug activist, Jo Anna Krohn, founder of SOLACE (Surviving Our Losses And Continuing Everyday), Portsmouth Police Chief Robert Ware, Scioto County Sheriff Marty V. Donini and Deputy Scioto County Coroner Dr. Wayne Wheeler, who drew a large applause when he said - "I make a point when I first see a patient, at the very first encounter I say - 'you are worth something. You are not trash. You are not garbage. You are a human being and are deserving of self respect, and deserving of community respect, and our problem is to try to help you earn that back in your own heart.'"
Wheeler said the first job of the community is to change the attitude toward drug addiction. He said - "Then you can start working on the problem."
DeWine talked with guarded optimism about the successes of the last several years including the shutting down of pain clinics in Scioto County, telling those in attendance - "We have taken the licenses of 38 doctors. That's a lot. They were just pill pushers."
But he also called attention to the changeover that has occurred since a lot of the opiate availability has gone away.
"Today we have heroin in every county," DeWine said. "And we have communities in this state that will not admit they have a drug problem."
Johnson told the audience the root of the problem has to be addressed holistically, telling them it takes the whole community working together.
"People ask me, how did you come together?" Johnson said. "I tell them we did, but we're not done."
Johnson said the drug epidemic crosses every economic strata.
"We've got a lot more to do, but we've come a long way," Johnson said. "I couldn't be prouder of the efforts of the people here in southern Ohio."
In another exclusive interview, Hughes told the Daily Times - "We were contacted by the Attorney General's office, stating that Mike DeWine was going to be going around the state and going to local communities trying to get input from these local communities in terms of the role their office could play in our prevention and intervention services, and how to try and address especially this transition we're seeing between prescription drugs and heroin, so this is the first of those events that the Attorney General has set up, and we were really happy to host it."
Hughes said DeWine is not new to the drug epidemic.
"He (DeWine) has a long history of interest in treatments and prevention services around drug and alcohol abuse," Hughes told the Daily Times. "And I think he's trying to get some input from the local community with the idea that somewhere this is going to lead to him trying to look at what kind of a contribution his office makes in helping us locally to try and address these problems."
According to the Ohio Department of Health, drug overdose deaths increased 440 percent in Ohio from 1999 to 2011, with Scioto County having the highest drug overdose rate per capita from 2007 to 2011. More recent statistics from the Scioto County Coroner's Office show a 30 percent decrease in direct drug deaths from 2011 to 2012, and a 32 percent decrease in indirect drug deaths during the same time period. DeWine credited the grassroots efforts of the health, law enforcement, court, and community segments all coming together to bring about success.
"I think other communities need to do the same thing," DeWine said. "Because this is not a Scioto County problem. This is a problem that is across the state of Ohio. Every county has it. Every county has these issues."
DeWine will return to southern Ohio Thursday hosting several events. First, DeWine will tour McGinnis, Inc. at 740 County Road 1 in South Point, including a barge being restored by the company. That visit will begin at 9 a.m. Second, at 11:30 a.m., DeWine will tour Serenity House, a domestic violence shelter at 11 Hickory Lane in Gallipolis. Serenity House received a Victims of Crime grant from the Attorney General's Office. Lastly, DeWine will host a roundtable for area law enforcement at the Wild Horse Cafe, 251 West Main Street in Pomeroy, in Meigs County at 1:30 p.m.

Men's Basketball Finishes Regular-Season as Nation's Top Scoring Team; Two Falcons Earn Postseason Honors
March 12, 2010
MISENHEIMER, N.C. When the final mens basketball regular-season statistics were released by the NCAA this week, the Pfeiffer University Falcons stood tall atop the scoring offense category as the nations top scoring team averaging 103.1 points per game. Pfeiffer ranked in the top-5 in three other team categories, placing a pair of players in the top-10 while garnering post-season awards.
Pfeiffer finished the regular season 18-10 just missing out on a berth into the NCAA II regional tournament. In addition to being the Countrys top scoring team, the Falcons ranked third in three-point field goals per game (10.6) and steals per game at 11.2. Pfeiffer stood fifth in three-point percentage (42.3%).
For individual achievements, Jeff Pettiway (Edgewood, MD) finished eighth nationwide with a 45.4% averaging in draining threes. Pettiway also earned third team all-conference honors. Chris Woods (High Point, NC) concluded the 09-10 season as the tenth best scorer in America averaging 22.3 points per game. Postseason accolades for Woods included first-team all-conference and second-team all-region recognition.
This is quite an achievement for our team and these individuals, said Pfeiffer coach Dave Davis. We have led the country Division I and II in scoring five times but this is the most we have ever scored by almost five points a game. 2008-09 was our highest scoring team ever at 98.5ppg. My assistant coach Jeremy Currier took over the offensive responsibilities this season and led our guys to unprecedented heights in terms of scoring the basketball. We have had 14 All-Americans in my time here at Pfeiffer and Chris Woods and Jeff Pettiway put up numbers that only two of those All-American exceeded. They both had incredible seasons and their offensive production in minutes played and more importantly on number of shots taken was mind boggling. Our team played hard, really, really, rebounded the basketball and played unselfishly. It is amazing that we were able to do this with so many young players.
Pfeiffer scored 146 points vs. Barton in a game to break a tie for second place setting school and conference scoring records. The Falcons scored over 60 points in a half an amazing twelve times this season. Three different times this season Pfeiffer made 20 3-pointers in a game and the Falcons averaged just under 25 made free throws a game.

OPM updates language announcing office closings
Tuesday - 11/13/2012, 12:40pm EST
By Jason Miller and Jolie Lee
Federal News Radio
The Office of Personnel Management is changing how it refers to the operating status of the government. Now when federal offices are closed due to weather or other emergencies, OPM will use the terminology, "Federal offices are closed. Federal employees required to work should follow their agency's policies."
The change was announced at a meeting of the Chief Human Capital Officers Council on Tuesday.
The closed status means non-emergency employees are not expected to show up to their offices and will be given the day off at no charge to their leave balance. The second sentence refers to emergency employees and teleworkers who are required to work, even when federal offices are closed.
Technically, even when federal offices are closed, it doesn't mean the government is shut down since emergency workers and teleworkers are still working.
The reason for the change in language is due to confusion during Hurricane Sandy. Previously, OPM stated federal offices were "closed to the public," when making the determination to close.
"We got a lot of intake from folks saying 'Oh my gosh, where did this come from?'" said Angela Bailey, OPM's chief human capital officer.
The agency first used "closed to the public" in 2010 following Snowmageddon, the huge snowstorm that blanketed the Washington area.
"We're incorporating into it a delayed arrival announcement that we think might be a little bit clearer for folks. And, we're going to change the wording with regard to the closure announcement," Bailey said. "It's one of those things where, believe it or not, getting those words right seems to be one of the most difficult things for us."
Due to Hurricane Sandy, federal offices in the D.C. area were closed on Oct. 29 and 30, and non-emergency employees were granted an excused absence, unless they were required to telework, on official travel outside of the area, on leave without pay or on an alternative work schedule. Emergency employees were expected to report to their worksites.
OPM makes decisions about the operating status of federal agencies in the D.C. area. In the rest of the country, Federal Executive Boards make recommendations on the operating status of federal buildings.
According to Bailey, the new language shifts the responsibility back to the agencies so they can make sure their employees understand what OPM's general message means and how their own policies — such as telework — fit in with that.
"We'll put out the general thing, but then what we're going to ask you to do is make sure that you work with your employees so that they clearly understand what your telework and your closure policies are," she said.

Plant History
GM began production of the esteemed Corvette in Bowling Green in 1981, and the facility has remained the exclusive home of the Corvette for over 30 years. Known around the world as America's sports car, the Corvette exemplifies the definition of innovation. The Corvette is the world's longest-running, continuously produced passengar car with more than 1.6 million produced. When the first Corvette rolled off the line over 60 years ago, it was born an icon. GM has continued this reputation for the car with six decades of refinement and innovation, raising the bar for performance cars with each generation. The Corvette Stingray is no exception; man and machine work in harmony to bring to life the perfect balance of technology, design and performance.
Corvette didn't always call Kentucky home, however. In 1953, the first 300 were built by hand in Flint, Michigan, just after General Motors unveiled the Corvette as a "dream car" in the Motorama show in New York's Waldorf Astoria hotel. The following year, production moved to St. Louis. In June of 1981, Corvette production transferred from St. Louis to Bowling Green, Kentucky. Previously a Chrysler air-conditioning unit factory, the building was completely renovated within 14 months into a modern automotive facility twice the size of the previous structure. At the conclusion of the 1996 production year, the entire plant was gutted to make way for a totally redesigned manufacturing facility for the fifth generation Corvette. Production of the XLR began in June 2003 and ceased on April 30, 2009. The plant built the 1 millionth Corvette on July 2, 1992 and the 1.5 millionth on May 28, 2009. The 50th anniversary of the Corvette was celebrated in June 2003, marked with a special 50th anniversary Corvette package, and the 30th anniversary of Bowling Green Assembly was celebrated in June 2011.
On May 4, 2011, GM announced it would invest $131 million in the Bowling Green plant to support production of the Corvette Stingray, adding about 250 jobs. The plant upgrade in 2012 and 2013 included a brand new $52 million Body Shop in order to build the aluminum frame in-house for the first time. The all-new 2014 Corvette Stingray was unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show on January 13, 2013; production began 3rd quarter 2013. In addition, on January 30, 2013, GM announced a $3.5 million investment to relocate its Performance Build Center from Michigan to the Bowling Green Plant. The Camaro Z/28 and Corvette Z06 engines are currently built in this area. Beginning March, 2015 the exclusive Engine Build Experience became available to Corvette Z06 customers. This program allows aficionados to assemble the 650-hp supercharged LT4 engine for their cars. The $5,000 package includes a full day with a Performance Build Center engine assembly technician who instructs and oversees the build, a personalized engine plaque identifying the owner/builder and the date of the engine build, and professional photography of the experience.
Garnering such awards as J.D. Power's Top GM Model in 2009, Best in Segment award in 2009, 2002 and 2001, the Bronze Plant Award in 2009 and the Silver Plant Award in 2002, Bowling Green Assembly is committed to continuous improvement and producing the highest quality cars. In 2009, JD Power and Associates not only ranked Corvette as the top GM model for quality, but the 5th model across the industry.
Located just off I-65 at exit 28, General Motors Bowling Green Assembly is proud to be the only "Home of the Corvette". Eight hundred production workers, represented by the UAW Local 2164, help assemble these vehicles on a one-shift, 8-hour, Monday-Friday production schedule. Approximately 50,000 tourists from around the world visit the plant annually to catch a glimpse of the manufacturing process at Bowling Green Assembly. In addition, the plant has partnered with the National Corvette Museum to enable Corvette enthusiasts the opportunity to watch their own Corvette being built, take a personalized tour of the facility and special delivery of their car, and acquire an exclusive photo book to commemorate the manufacturing process and "birth" of their Corvette. For more information about the Bowling Green plant, please visit its website at corvetteassembly.com.

Lori Visner's Spotlight
Lori Visner ('07)
Graduate Program of Study: Public Administration
Degree: MPA
Graduation Year: 2007
Areas of Research: Public Sector Budget, Management, and Policy
Hometown: Akron, Ohio
Current Employment: Facility Director of the Cuyahoga Falls Natatorium
Lori Viser has devoted her entire career to public sector budget, management, and policy. In fact, one of her greatest academic accomplishments was completing an internship in Washington D.C. for U.S. Senator Mike DeWine. Upon completion of this internship, Lori's educational career did not come to a halt as she enrolled in the Master in Public Administration program and successfully graduated in 2007.
Lori plans to continue her role as the Facility Director of the Cuyahoga Falls Natatorium. In response to her current position, she stated, "I enjoy my Director position at the Natatorium, and having only been here for 10 months, I look forward to learning all the roles and responsibilities over the next several years and keeping the facility on a solid and financially sound path."
Lori believes the MPA program prepared her well for her current director role. She describes the curriculum as "very helpful with day-to-day operations." Specifically, Lori explains, "it provided lessons and suggestions I could take back to my place of employment, which improved both daily operations and financial decisions." Lori claims that the one part of graduate school she misses most is the relationships and friendships with students and professors.
Lori acknowledgesDr. Joseph Drew for his expertise and support. "His dedication to the program and student body was remarkable and I know to this day, he has an open door at all times!" Lori stated.
Spending time with her husband, John, and daughter, Brooke, is something Lori enjoys during her free time. Lori wishes to provide the following advice for new graduate students: "Utilize the professors and their worldly experiences, network within the program (through professors or student counterparts), be aware and inquire about potential job opportunities, and take advantage of any field experience/internship opportunities that come your way. The key is to get your foot in the door."

You guys do amazing work. You've given me a good stack of stuff to stare at for a while.
Tinfoil - Your work is particularly inspiring in the spread of your imagination and your technical execution. And your palettes are so rich but not gaudy.
December 1st, 2006 #43
My goodness. I honestly didn't expect to see another one of these threads for a long time. Thank God for expansion packs! :-P
Tinfoil, I'm hoping that one day you'll put out a tutorial of some sort. I am left clueless as to how you go about in doing some of your environments. This makes me go bonkers http://conceptart.org/forums/attachm...1&d=1164984733
Excellent job, guys! Lots and lots and lots of talent here! :-)

All of this is amazing, all the environments, the character and costume design, the creature designs, and the models, it's all sweet. I've never played guild wars, so I didn't know what kind of stuff it had instore before, but man, this is really good stuff.
I especially liked the girls of gaming covers, it's a shame they changed their minds about them. I wish you guys future success and more Guild Wars expansions/sequels so you guys can keep coming up with all this awesome art.
Oh gee.

Drew before and after.
Three-month-old Drew was skin and bones the day he arrived at the ASPCA's Bergh Memorial Animal Hospital. His owner, Leedell Walker, claimed the pup had not been eating—then proceeded to give up custody of the dog and leave. The hospital team knew something was very wrong and contacted ASPCA Humane Law Enforcement (HLE).
After a full examination, forensic veterinarians confirmed that the near-death Drew was in a critical state of shock and severely anemic. The vets concluded that 37-pound Drew had been starved.
It didn't take long to for HLE to conclude its case. Walker, 57, was arrested by Special Agent Bradley English and charged with one count of misdemeanor animal cruelty. If convicted, he faces up to one year in jail and/or a $1,000 fine. Walker is due in Kings County Criminal Court on June 11.
Drew continues his recovery, and now weighs 65 pounds—a 76 percent increase! This handsome boy will soon be made available for adoption.
If you suspect an animal may be the victim of neglect or abuse, please report it.
Agreed. That is not enough punishment for such a crime! He will get his comeuppance.
1 year imprisonment is not enough. Celebrity apprentice should use the ASPCA as a charity.
$1,000 fine?? Forget the money, Lock this guy up and starve him for a while.
They need to make tougher laws against people who abuse animals. If they dont this kind of thing will keep happening. Thank you for taking care of him he looks so good!
Im with you.. lock that monster up without food till he is skin and bone!!
That is not a good enough punishment for what that poor sog went through. I firmly believe in an eye for an eye. Glad that the dog is doing much better. Hope he finds a loving home soon.
I think that sob should be starved completely to death. People like that need to be put to death. How can someone do that to an animal? They make sickos sign up as sexual preditors. People who do this to animals should have to sign up as the sline that they are.

Good morning, friends.
I don't know why, but the other evening I got to thinking about some of the things my mother and daddy used to say, and, truth to tell, my grandparents, too.
The closest thing to a cuss word I ever heard my Daddy say was "Dad-gummit!" And he said it with a great deal of feeling.
He usually left the punishing up to Mother, who was a bit more graphic in some of her warnings and much more graphic in her punishments.
No offense, but some of my parents' fine old-timey sayings have been replaced in today's vocabulary by words that, well, if I had said them in front of my mother, she would have "mashed my mouth."
So we'll start with that one.
"You sass me again, and I'll mash your mouth." I guess you couldn't say that now for fear of being hauled into court for cruelty to children.
"This is the last time I'm gonna tell you this" or "This is your last warning."
That's pretty plain, I guess. The next step being the mashing of the mouth.
"Let me tell you one thing," always followed by … "and another thing."
"Wear you out." Now, I'm not so sure any of my grandchildren would even know what that means.
But my children surely understood that carry-over from their mother's growing up days.
That particular phrase almost always involved a good-sized switch off the persimmon tree out back of the smoke house.
And to make matters worse, we were expected to go get our own switch, and it had to be a good one or you were sent back.
One advantage of the second trip to the persimmon tree was that some of the parental anger would have faded a bit, depending on what you had done.
I remember quite well the last time my mother raised the persimmon tree switch to my fanny.
One day, Daddy had to run to town for something, and on the spur of the moment, Mother decided to go with him to pick up sugar and coffee at the A&P.
She left me sole custodian of a pot of snap beans that were cooking on the wood stove in the kitchen.
She must have warned me half a dozen times to keep an eye on them and not let them boil dry.
OK, OK .I know what you're saying (all this under my breath, you understand).
And so they took off in the old Chevrolet, and I took off out to the side yard where I had a little playhouse.
And from there, I meandered over to the pear tree to see if there were any big enough to eat.
Hmm. Think I'll go down to the spring and get some moss to use for carpet in my playhouse.
And before you know it, I see that old blue Chevy pulling up in the back yard.
I made a mad dash for the house but, alas, too late to save the snapbeans.
When I ran in the back door, Mother's mouth was set in that all-too-familiar line that meant, "You're in for it now, young lady."
I was in big trouble and I knew it. It was as though when the car left the yard, all thoughts of taking care of the pot of beans left with it.
She didn't have to tell me to go get her a switch. And she didn't have to send me back for a better one.
Remember the phrase, "I'm gonna wear you out?"
She did.

The memo boards are beautiful! We were able to change the design to fit our wedding colors, and that is the reason I keep coming back to MagnetStreet! The plastic bags are a bit cumbersome to put the boards in, but other than that, everything is great.
I LOVE the size!
These seals are much bigger than I anticipated, but I love that! I feel like that improves the already great value! It was so easy to change the monogram to fit and my fiance's and my initials, and being able to change the color to my wedding colors always makes it look like this was designed JUST FOR ME! I used the seals to close the plastic bags that my favor memo boards are in (also purchased on this site). I love that with MagnetStreet, you're able to purchase products that pull "double duty," and that is why I will continue to purchase from them!

Woods Named First Team All-Region
March 25, 2010
MISENHEIMER, NC - Pfeiffer junior Chris Woods has been named first team All-Region for the Southeast Region. The Thomasville NC center was brilliant throughout the season averaging almost 23 point per game in just over 25 minutes of playing time. He was named first team All-Carolina's Conference and has 40 minute averages were 37 points and 11 rebounds. Woods had 32 points and 17 rebounds vs. Mt Olive, 35 points and 11 rebounds vs. USC-Aiken, and 33 points and 10 rebounds vs. Barton.
"Chris has worked really hard and has improved a great deal in his three years here," said Pfeiffer coach Dave Davis. "He really stepped up as a leader as the year went on and we were a very young team and he almost got us in the NCAA Tournament. We are thrilled with his progress and he is very deserving of all these honors. There are 34 schools in the Southeast Region and to be named one of the top five guys is quite an achievement."

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia — President Barack Obama planned this weeks trip to Europe with a short but important to-do list: Try to squelch the impression that hes indifferent towards the continent, cement his legacy on nuclear security and pay respects to a new pope.
Then came the crisis in Ukraine.
Russian President Vladimir Putins unimpeded military march into Ukraines Crimea region, and how Obama is responding to it, dogged the president at every stop, from Brussels to The Hague to the Vatican. He arrived Friday in Saudi Arabia, the last stop of his trip.
Mr. Putin turned this trip completely on its head, said Heather Conley, the director of the Europe Program at Washingtons Center for Strategic and International Studies. The nuclear summit in The Hague, you couldnt hear it because of Ukraine. It turned things totally upside down.
That might not be a bad thing for Obama.
While the Ukraine situation upended the long-planned stagecraft of the trip, particularly the early meetings with European leaders, it may have helped Obama repair fractured ties in some European capitals and spark a renewed focus on the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
Whats happened in Crimea has rejuvenated efforts to rebuild trans-Atlantic relationships, said Christopher Chivvis, a senior political scientist at the RAND Corp. who specializes in European and Eurasian security and NATO intervention. The upside is this should improve trans-Atlantic relations. The downside is theres a crisis.
Obama and Europe havent been on the best of terms. The continent looked warily at the White House as it turned its international attention toward extracting itself from wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, diplomatically pivoting toward Asia and hitting the reset button on its rocky relationship with Putins Russia.
Obama annoyed some European leaders when he skipped a European Union summit in 2010. The trans-Atlantic relationship perhaps reached its lowest point last year, amid revelations that the U.S. National Security Agency had spied on the leaders of at least 35 countries, including German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
But Europes irritation with Obama at least for the time being appears to have waned, some analysts said, replaced by the need to work together to keep the situation in Ukraine from worsening.
Obama, for his part, highlighted the ties that bind the U.S. and Europe in a speech in Belgium.
Our borders are not threatened by Russias annexation, Obama said. But that kind of casual indifference would ignore the lessons that are written in the cemeteries of this continent. It would allow the old way of doing things to regain a foothold in this young century.
In his speech, Obama laid out the case against Russia, spelled out the stakes if Europe and the world dont respond, stressed that a military option isnt viable for prying Russia out of Crimea and noted that NATOs European allies must step up to the plate and do more to bolster the alliance.
The president stressed throughout his European swing that the United States is doing its share by slapping sanctions on top Russians tied to the Crimea move or to efforts to undermine the fledgling Ukrainian government. He also noted the dispatch of F-15C fighter jets to Lithuania and 12 F-16 fighters to Poland.
I think he did quite well, said Damon Wilson, the executive vice president of the Atlantic Council _ a research center based in Washington _ and a former national security official under President George W. Bush. More importantly, his speech in Brussels set out principles and strategic guidelines on how to think about Crimea and the challenges to international norms. I think youll see more policy flowing. I think the speech filled a vacuum.
Several analysts wondered, though, whether Obamas tough talk in Europe can or will be matched by tough action later on, especially if Russia marches farther into Ukraine.
Americans have mixed views about how Obama is dealing with the Ukraine crisis. Forty-three percent think hes handling the situation about right, 35 percent say hes not being tough enough and 5 percent think hes being too tough, according to the Pew Research Center.
The Ukraine crisis divides along party lines: Fifty-eight percent of Republicans say Obama isnt being tough enough, while only 27 percent say hes handling the matter correctly. Among Democrats, 65 percent think hes handling the situation correctly, while 22 percent say hes being too tough.
Meanwhile, the world and Capitol Hill are watching, according to Matthew Rojansky, the director of the Kennan Institute at Washingtons Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars.
He may come away with some pretty substantial bipartisan support for his next steps, because even the most hawkish Republicans dont want to go to war over Ukraine, Rojansky said. So they may talk about tougher measures, but fundamentally the responses are going to be what they have been, which is economic sanctions. And Obama is doing that. He is the king of sanctions.
Conley wonders whether the White House will remain focused on Ukraine or turn its attention to the Affordable Care Act and other legacy-building domestic agenda items.
This is a big event that could swallow the entire agenda, she said. I think it could change the trajectory of the entire presidency.
In the end, how successful Obama was in Europe will depend on how much cooperation he gets from European allies, many of which have strong economic and energy ties to Russia, according to Vikram Singh, the vice president for national security and international policy at Washingtons Center for American Progress, a research organization.
I think he laid the right groundwork, but were going to have to see whether that kind of solidarity _ a global approach to stand against this kind of aggressive behavior _ ultimately takes hold, Singh said.

Staffers at Liberty Tax Service in Kinston are spending the final days of 2012 updating software, preparing to hire Liberty's signature "wavers" — and waiting on Congress to get its financial house in order before going over the fiscal cliff.
"It's all hinging on what Congress is going to do," franchise owner Wendy Rhodes said Thursday.
President Barack Obama and members of Congress must reach a deal on federal spending and tax rates before next Tuesday, when massive tax hikes worth about $500 billion and spending cuts worth about $200 billion automatically kick in.
Unless Congress acts to prevent it, middle-class taxpayers could become ensnarled in the mechanics of the Alternative Minimum Tax, originally devised to keep the rich honest.
"You're going to have higher taxes across the board for all taxpayers. … You're looking at, somebody with a $20,000 income is going to have to pay an additional $1,000 in taxes annually,"
The Internal Revenue Service has warned Congress of major impacts to taxpayers in 2013 beyond the bottom line. Pushing back the acceptance date for early returns could mean a delay in receiving a tax refund.
"When Congress takes action well after this planning process is underway, there is potential for substantial disruption to the filing season ahead," Miller wrote.
The Alternative Minimum Tax was established in 1969 to ensure taxpayers at certain income levels paid income tax and could not avoid all loopholes.
The income level set in the late 1960s was not set to be adjusted for inflation, though, and Congress must pass a regular "patch" to ensure lower-income taxpayers are not ensnared by the
Miller stated in his letter the most recent patch expired
With no patch for 2012, though, the threshold will be lowered to $33,750 for individuals and $45,000 for married couples.
"Taken together, the changes to the

She said many taxpayers are not aware of the delay in processing returns and receiving refunds, and "they are going to be in for a rude awakening when they come in."

Hi all,
I'm going to be in Louisville at the end of Feb for a week of job training. There are two courses near the hotel I'm staying in, Iroquis, and Ventiner. I was hoping to hit at least one of these courses. Would anyone care to describe these courses a bit and recommend which one might be better for someone who's been playing about a year? Do either have any elevation? Being as i live on the west coast of florida, there isn't ANY elevation around here, and I'd love to have some hills to throw on.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,

If you live in an older home, you may well be grinding your teeth over your bathroom. Considering how much time we spend in our bathrooms, there's good reason to want yours to be a pleasant place to be. Ancient cupboards, peeling linoleum floors, murky mirrors, and funky stained fixtures aren't really what you envision when you think of relaxing -- or showing your guests your lovely home.
Bathroom remodels are often pitched as both expensive and time consuming, but they don't have to be. Kirsten S and her husband managed to totally renovate her father's bathroom in 24 hours. That is not a typo!
Let's take a closer look at what they did. After gutting and repainting, they replaced the sink and toilet with updated, streamlined models (including a water efficient toilet for energy savings). They also replaced the dull lighting over the mirror with something a little more elegant, and framed the mirror to give it depth and texture, a trick that can be used with builder grade mirrors of all sizes to give them more personality.
They tore out the linoleum and replaced it with tile, added a vanity for storage, and replaced the toilet paper holder, towel rack, and other hardware. The shower was left in its original state, but the paint choices and towels blend much better, making it a streamlined part of the bathroom instead of an eyesore.
The couple spent approximately $1,000 on the remodel, most of which was on the new fixtures and supplies. Doing the work themselves saved a substantial amount of money, and allowed them to perform the job on their schedule -- which turned out to be a tight one!

Customer Reviews for Fabric Gray Panel Track Window Blinds
"love love!!"
By customer
We have two sliders in our open living room and purchased two panel tracks and absolutely love them!! My husband doesn't get into the whole decorating thing but he made a comment on how nice they look! I will be purchasing another for our basement living room!View this product
By desienla from Upstate, NY
These Sliding Panel Track Blinds are absolutely STUNNING!! The pictures on the website really dont do them justice. We ordered them in the taupe. (We also ordered the matching roller shade in the Mesa taupe for a nearby kitchen window.) The colors in them are rich and the shades feel very high-quality. Mounting the panel track was a bit time consuming but otherwise straight forward as long as you read and carefully followed the directions provided. Our kitchen has a very stylish, very cohesive look and we are constantly receiving compliments on our window treatments. I am very happy with this purchase, and although it was a bit pricey, I would definitely recommend this product to others.View this product

Baseball Struggles Through 12-1 Loss at #25 UNC-Pembroke
April 19, 2012
PEMBROKE, N.C. - Getting ready for their Conference Carolinas weekend finale at St. Andrews on Friday and Saturday, the Pfeiffer University baseball team dropped a 12-1 decision at UNC-Pembroke on Thursday night. The 25th-ranked Braves knocked out 16 hits to improve to 29-15 while the Falcons drop to 22-23.
UNCP was up 11-0 when the Falcons got their lone run across in the top of the seventh. Cole McGraw started with a two-out walk before scooting to third on a Jon Gray single to left. Matt Wade would follow by reaching on an error that would allow McGraw to trot in from third.
Eight of the Braves nine starters recorded a hit on Thursday while the Falcons saw five scatter one hit apiece.
Friday's series-opener at St. Andrews will start at 3:00 p.m. moving the series up a day due to threatening weather over the weekend.

On higher mileage vehicles, an engine misfire may develop and/or the Check Engine Light may illuminate due to a failed ignition coil. It is not uncommon to replace all the coils when the first one fails in order to prevent return trips to the repair shop.
1999 Toyota Solara Problem Reports
RepairPal Verified 1999 Toyota Solara Problem Reports
The Check Engine Light may illuminate because a component of the oxygen sensor stops working. As a result the engine computer is unable to determine the proper ratio of air to fuel for the engine. Replacing the failed oxygen sensor should correct this concern.
Debris can get into the idle air control valve. This will restrict the air flow into the engine, causing idle speed and/or stalling when cold. The valve can be cleaned or replaced to correct this concern.
Sludge can build up in the engine because Toyota did not recommend frequent enough oil changes. Lexus will sometimes offer a discount on cleaning the engine if necessary. Owners who changed their oil every 3,000 miles did not experience these problems. This sludge build up can lead to excessive oil consumption.
Intermittent failure of a purge control valve in the evaporative emission system can cause the Check Engine Light to illuminate. A failed valve should be replaced to correct this problem.

Army cuts size, increases efficiency of its vehicle fleet
Tuesday - 1/15/2013, 12:48pm EST
The Army has cut almost 12,000 vehicles out of its fleet since its peak in 2009, including cars, tractors, ambulances and other non-combat vehicles. In addition, the service reached its goal for alternative energy vehicles eight years early.
Edward Moscatelli, chief of transportation in the Army's Office of the Assistant Chief of Staff for Installation Management, told The Federal Drive with Tom Temin and Emily Kopp Tuesday thousands more vehicles could still be cut.
"We had peak of 82,860 vehicles in fiscal year 2009," he said. "As of the end of fiscal year '12, we're down to 70,800-plus vehicles, approximately 12,000 vehicle reduction at this time."
Moscatelli added the Army estimates it could reduce its force by 3,000 more vehicles as the service reduces its size due to the drawdown in Afghanistan.
"Every year, we go through a process to reduce the size of the fleet," he said. "We want to optimize the fleet. We don't want to have excess laying around."
Edward Mascatelli, chief of transportation in the Office of the Assistant Chief of Staff for Installation Management, Army
Part of this overall strategy is to get away from the practice of assigning vehicles to particular individuals.
"Usually, we have vehicles that are general dispatch," Moscatelli said. "They're available each day for whoever needs them, and what we will try to do is provide certain commands — the headquarters element — a small number of vehicles that are dispatched to them on a daily basis for general use. So, the general may use it one time. It may be used by someone else in his staff the next time."
Army fleet goes green
As the Army reduces the number of vehicles in its fleet, it's also creating a "greener" fleet by introducing more vehicles that don't rely on fossil fuels.
"We're really happy with the hybrids and the plug-in electric vehicles and the fully electric vehicles that are on the horizon," Moscatelli said. "Our biggest thing is to make sure that we get a sufficient number of these vehicles to really impact on our use of fossil fuel. We're driving down the use of fossil fuel to the point where, in this past year, we're at a 28.5 percent reduction from the 2005 baseline. And that is close to the 2020 requirement of a 30 percent reduction."
The Army has been able to achieve these reductions through its regular process of replacing older vehicles with newer, more fuel-efficient models. "That means, we're pushing for hybrids, where hybrids are a smart thing to do," he said. "Where they aren't, we go with low greenhouse gas vehicles, which, in most cases, double the mileage on a normal gas engine."
In the private sector, when someone trades up to a hybrid or another environmentally friendly vehicle, they may end up paying more for a green vehicle rather than the standard "gas guzzler."
Approximately 84 percent of the vehicle the Army has are leased from the Government Services Administration. The service works with GSA to amortize the cost of the hybrids and electric vehicles over a longer period of time in order to keep the costs down.
"What we're trying to do is keep the monthly lease rate the same as a normal, gas-engine vehicle," Moscatelli said. "And, at the same time, taking the cost of that hybrid and amortizing it over a longer period of time, which is good for them, because the hybrid, in the secondary market, we figure around five years, is going to hit its peak, so that they can get as much money back on the secondary as they can. For us, it's a steady lease rate for us every month so that our bill does not fluctuate that greatly."
In two years, Moscatelli expects the Army vehicle fleet will be made up predominately of hybrid, electric and low-greenhouse-gas vehicles.
"Based on the rules we utilize, we expect the fossil-fuel consumption will still decrease, but it won't decrease as much as it has right now until we go to an all electric fleet, which is probably several years down the road," he said.

Schalk Burger is a rugby phenomenon, but what makes him the player he is?
In the latest issue of SA Rugby magazine, Jake White, Richie McCaw, Rudolf Straeuli, Derick Coetzee and Henning Gericke all offer unique insights into arguably the greatest Springbok of all-time by explaining exactly what sets him apart from the rest.
White, during a detailed discussion, reveals that Burger "averages 21 tackles per game – seven more than the average for an elite international flank. He's got great ball skills, an unbelievable feel for the game in the sense that his running lines are so good that he gets into excellent positions long before the opposition even realise he's there."
McCaw says, "He just flies in [to the rucks]. Every time you play against him, he's everywhere. His work rate is amazing."
In a revealing Q&A, we also ask Schalk if opensiders are born or made, what he defines as failure, if he's received offers from overseas clubs and if he misses having Jake around.
Also in the new issue of SAR:
– The Springbok scrum no longer strikes fear into their opponents. Former Springbok front rankers John Allan and Guy Kebble explain why
– BJ Botha was a shock omission from the Boks' Tri-Nations squad, but the tighthead prop, who recently signed for ulster, believes he can force his way back
– Player depth remains a top priority but South Africa can no longer afford to neglect the development of local coaches. SA Rugby magazine investigates Saru's plan to implement a new coaching programme in 2009
– The increased involvement of the TMO has been the most hotly debated point of this year's Absa Currie Cup. SA Rugby magazine assesses the positives and negatives of the system
– Craven Week is supposed to be a festival of South African schoolboy rugby where winning isn't a matter of life or death. but for a group of determined talent scouts, it's merely an opportunity to snap up the next Frans Steyn or John Smit. SA Rugby magazine finds out how a respected talent scout goes about his job, and how others, with less integrity, will do almost anything to get that important signature
– At just 19, Robert Ebersohn has already lent the Free State Cheetahs backline some much needed attacking flair this season
– Last year, a disillusioned Gcobani Bobo was released by the Sharks to play for the Springbok Sevens team. Now he's an automatic selection for the Stormers, captaining Western Province, back in the Bok set-up and revelling in his amazing change of fortune
– Former Springbok flyhalf Gerald Bosch has played a major role in the development of Wallabies utility back Berrick Barnes
– Outside centre has been an All Blacks weakness since Tana Umaga retired at the end of 2005. But the problem of who to play there has finally been solved by the emergence of Conrad Smith
– Andre Pretorius's career has been plagued by leg injuries, especially during the last four years. The latest setback came when he played for the Boks against the Barbarians last year, limping off the Twickenham turf after 33 minutes with a crocked foot. The Lions flyhalf has not played in a match since, yet despite calls for him to retire, he believes he will have a big 2009 season
