Kent State University's Department of Sociology Celebrates 75th AnniversaryPosted Aug. 27, 2012
This fall, Kent State's Department of Sociology will celebrate its 75th anniversary. The department was founded in 1937 by James T. Laing. The celebration begins Thursday, Oct. 11, at 7 p.m. with a reception and presentation by Glen Elder, Ph.D., a distinguished sociologist from the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill and Kent State University alumnus.
On Friday, Oct. 12, there will be programs including a keynote address by Bernice Pescosolido, Ph.D., of Indiana University, a film by Kent State Associate Professor Will Kalkhoff, Ph.D., on the history of the department, a panel of Kent State alumni talking about their time at the university and a panel on current departmental research with current faculty and doctoral students. The day will end with a tour of the May 4 National Historic Landmark site guided by Jerry M. Lewis, Ph.D.
During the celebration, Kent State alumni will receive a new award developed by the department. This award – the Oscar Ritchie Distinguished Alumni Award – is named for the first African-American to become a full professor in the Ohio Higher Education System. The Oscar Ritchie Distinguished Alumni Award will be given annually to recognize alumni contributions in the areas of teaching, research or service.

So I've only played a handful of 6-7 games, a drop in the bucket compared to many of the people here. Still, the print on the outside of the movement dials is starting to come off. While this doesn't effect gameplay, it makes me wonder how these things will look after a year+ and dozens upon dozens of games.
I'm considering coating the outside of the dials in a protective sealant. Anyone else had this problem and tackled it in a similar way? Any recommendations on the kind of coating to use?

Cuba colognes offer the best value of any colognes. I use most of them and I am constantly getting great comments. Would highly recommend. You do not have to spend a fortune for great smelling men's colognes

I was pleasantly surprised when I tried Cuba Red. It sort of reminds me of Halston Z14 but I think Cuba Red actually smells better. I will definitely order more of this!

Brownback was eligible for re-election, and ran for a second term as Governor of Kansas in the 2014 elections.[2] The general election took place November 4, 2014.
Prior to becoming governor, Brownback served in a number of elected government offices. Most recently, he was the senior U.S. senator for Kansas from 1996-2011, having won a special election to fill the seat left vacant by former Sen. Bob Dole (R). He was re-elected to a full term in 2004. He ascended to the U.S. Senate out of the U.S. House, to which he was elected by voters from Kansas' 2nd congressional district in 1994. Brownback began his political career in 1986, when he became the youngest individual to be elected Kansas Secretary of Agriculture in the state's history.[3]
Brownback is a licensed attorney. He practiced law in Manhattan, Kansas between his graduation from law school in 1982 and his election to the statewide office of agriculture secretary. During his tenure as secretary, Brownback did double duty as a White House Fellow under the administration of George H.W. Bush.[3]
An analysis of Republican governors by Nate Silver of the New York Times in April 2013 ranked Brownback as the 12th most conservative governor in the country.[4]
Sam Brownback is a fourth generation Kansan. Born in Garnett, he grew up on a farm in Linn County where his parents still live. He was elected student body president as an undergraduate and then president of his law school class by his fellow students. At Kansas State, he also joined the Alpha Gamma Rho fraternity.[3]
After college, Sam spent a year in broadcasting, hosting a weekly show. He graduated from law school in 1982 and worked as a private practice attorney in Manhattan, Kansas for four years before being elected as Kansas' Secretary of Agriculture in 1986. He first went to Washington as a White House Fellow under the George H.W. Bush Administration. From 1990-1991, he was detailed to the office of the U.S. Trade Representative. Upon completion of his fellowship, Brownback returned to Kansas and resumed his secretarial office.[3]
Brownback holds a B.S. in agricultural economics from Kansas State University and a J.D. from the University of Kansas Law School.
- Bachelor's of Science in Agricultural Economics - Kansas State University (1978)
- Juris Doctor - University of Kansas Law School, J.D. (1982)
Political career
Governor of Kansas (2011-Present)
Brownback assumed office as Kansas' 46th governor on January 10, 2011, following his victory in the November 2, 2010 general election.
Job creation ranking
In a June 2013 analysis by The Business Journals, which ranked 45 of the country's 50 governors by their job creation records, Brownback was ranked number 25. The five governors omitted from the analysis all assumed office in 2013. The ranking was based on a comparison of the annual private sector growth rate in all 50 states using data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.[5][6]
Twitter 'overreaction'
In November 2011, 18-year old high school senior Emma Sullivan attended a Kansas Youth in Government event in Topeka, which featured Brownback. During the event, Sullivan posted a tweet that said, "Just made mean comments at gov brownback and told him he sucked, in person #heblowsalot." The governor's office notified event organizers about the tweet, who notified Sullivan's school. According to Sullivan, the principal ordered her to write apology letters to Brownback, the Youth in Government sponsor and others.[7]
The issue received national attention, eventually resulting in an apology from Brownback to Sullivan. He released a statement, saying, "My staff over-reacted to this tweet, and for that I apologize. Freedom of speech is among our most treasured freedoms. I enjoyed speaking to the more than 100 students who participated in the Youth in Government Program at the Kansas Capitol. They are our future. I also want to thank the thousands of Kansas educators who remind us daily of our liberties, as well as the values of civility and decorum. Again, I apologize for our over-reaction."[8]
Voter ID
Gov. Sam Brownback signed a law in April 2011 requiring voters to produce a photo ID before casting a ballot instead of the previous protocol of producing a signature to verify identification at the polls, starting January 1, 2013.
"This is a modest, prudent measure. You show photo ID to cash a check, you show one to get on a plane, it's something people are used to doing," Brownback said. "It's a modest and important measure to ensure the sanctity of the vote."[9]
Presidential preference
Sam Brownback endorsed Rick Perry in the 2012 presidential election. [10]
U.S. Senate (1996-2011)
Brownback served in the U.S. Senate from 1996-2011.
U.S. House of Representatives (1995-1996)
Brownback was served one term in the United States House of Representatives, from 1995-1996.
He entered Congress as the Representative for Kansas' 2nd District in 1993 and, in 1996, moved to the Senate in a special election for Bob Dole's seat. He served as the ranking Republican on the Agriculture Appropriations Subcommittee and also sat on the Homeland Security Subcommittee, the Appropriations Committee, the Judiciary Committee, the Joint Economic Committee, and the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe, more casually known as the Helsinki Commission.[3]

Governor Elect Sam Brownback's acceptance speech
Brownback defeated Joan Heffington in the August 3 primary, winning with 82% of the vote.
Brownback faced and won over Tom Holland (D), Andrew P. Gray (L), and Ken Cannon (Reform) in the general election on November 2, 2010.[11]

In the gubernatorial debate on October 7, 2010 on KWCH all four candidates for Kansas governor said they were against the statewide smoking ban and the hypocrisy of exempting the state-owned casinos from the ban.
Brownback stated:
- I think they need to be left to local units of government as well, but I'll tell you something else that we ought to do, that's to put the ban on the state-owned facilities. That's where the ban ought to be on in the first place, is the state should lead by example and not exempting itself by something like this. That smoking ban ought to be on the state facilities and leave the other issues to the local control. That's the best way a state can lead, doing this to itself and leading by example rather than putting it on somebody else, a burden somewhere else.[12]
Brownback won re-election to the United States Senate in 2004, defeating Lee Jones (D), Steven A. Rosile (L), and George Cook.[13]
Campaign donors
Comprehensive donor information for Brownback is available dating back to 2010. Based on available campaign finance records, Brownback raised a total of $3,569,073 during that time period. This information was last updated on July 11, 2013.[14]

Cash in on exclusive Sony financing promotions.
Get a $100 credit when you make this Sony CardSM purchase today.Apply Now
No other full frame, interchangeable-lens camera is this light or this portable. 36.4MP of rich detail. A true-to-life 2.4 million dot OLED viewfinder. Wi-Fi® sharing and an expandable shoe system. It's all the full-frame performance you ever wanted in a compact size that will change your perspective entirely.
Meet the world's smallest and lightest interchangeable lens full-frame camera*. Sony's Exmor® image sensor takes full advantage of the Full-frame format, but in a camera body less than half the size and weight of a full-frame DSLR.
*Among interchangeable-lens cameras with a full frame sensor as of October 2013.
Capture unbelievably high resolution in combination with high sensitivity and extremely low noise thanks to a newly developed 36.4MP 35mm full-frame Exmor CMOS sensor. Removing the optical low-pass filter brings out the full potential of the sensor and lens, enhancing the sense of clarity with supremely realistic details to the very edges of your photos. An AR coating also reduces flare and ghosting.
Every gapless on-chip lens (OCL) is designed and positioned to cover every pixel and eliminate the spaces between the micro-lenses to collect significantly more light. Moreover, each on-chip lens is optimally positioned depending on its location to accommodate the sharper angle of light entering the periphery, which is caused by larger sensor dimensions being teamed with the E-mount's short flange-back distance.
Sony proudly introduces the new BIONZ® X image processing engine, which faithfully reproduces textures and details in real time, as seen by the naked eye, via extra high-speed processing capabilities. Together with front-end LSI (large scale integration) that accelerates processing in the earliest stages, it enables more natural details, more realistic images, richer tonal gradations and lower noise whether you shoot still images or movies.
Get ultra high-speed AF despite the use of a full-frame sensor via an advanced image processing engine and improved algorithms that combine and optimize image sensor read-out speed.
Capture subjects partially turned away from the camera in a shallow depth of field with no problem thanks to Eye AF. Simply focus on a face, and a green frame appears over the prioritized eye to confirm the proper subject is locked. Its extremely accurate eye detection can even prioritize a single pupil. Eye AF can be used when the function is assigned to a customizable button, allowing users to instantly activate it depending on the scene.
To take advantage of the lightweight on-the-go body, the a7R is fully compatible with Sony's E-mount lens system as well as compact and lightweight E-mount full-frame lenses from Carl Zeiss® and Sony's premier G-Series.
Respond swiftly with just the right settings without searching through dedicated menus thanks to Quick Navi Pro. Easily view all major shooting options on the LCD screen so you can rapidly confirm settings and make adjustments on the fly when fleeting shooting opportunities arise.
View every scene in rich detail with the 2.4M dot XGA OLED Tru-Finder, which features OLED improvements and the same 3-lens optical system used in the flagship a99. Since the viewfinder faithfully displays what will appear in your recording, including the effects of your camera settings, you can accurately monitor your scene and the settings results. You'll enjoy rich tonal gradations and 3 times the contrast of the a99, along with high-end features like 100% frame coverage and a wide viewing angle.
Snap shots high over crowds or down low to capture a pet's eye view with the tiltable 3.0" (1,229k dots) Xtra Fine™ LCD that boasts a range of movement between approximately 84° up and 45° down. Easily scroll through menus and preview life thanks to WhiteMagic™ technology that dramatically increases visibility in bright daylight. The large display delivers brilliant-quality still images and movies while enabling easy focusing operation.
Capture Full 1920 x 1080 HD uncompressed clean-screen video files with external recording devices via an HDMI® connection in 60p and 60i frame rates. Selectable in-camera AVCHD™ codec frame rates include super-smooth 60p, standard 60i or cinematic 24p, while MP4 codec is also available for smaller files for easier upload to the web.
Watch Ultra High Definition slide shows directly on compatible 4K televisions via optional HDMI or Wi-Fi connection8. The a7R converts images for optimized 4K image size playback (8MP) so you can enjoy expressive rich colors and amazing detail like never before.
Wirelessly share your photos and videos through simplified Wi-Fi/NFC control. Use Wi-Fi or NFC (near field communication) for convenient cordless image transfer to Android™ smartphones and tablets. Simply touch devices to establish an NFC connection; no complex set-up is required. Even better, the smart Remote Control feature lets you control the shutter through your smartphone after you pair it to the camera.
The exciting new application download service, PlayMemories™ Camera Apps, lets you add new functions to your camera's existing feature-set to heighten photographic expression according to your own creative needs. Two applications are currently available for a7R as of October 16, 2013: Direct Upload uploads photos directly to networking services and Smart Remote Control allows a smartphone to control the camera. Many more apps will become available later, including Multiple Exposure, Lens Compensation, Photo Retouch and Picture Effect+.
Enjoy long hours of comfortable operation in the vertical orientation with the optional sure vertical grip (VG-C1EM), which can hold two batteries for longer shooting and features dust and moisture protection.
In addition to E-mount lenses, you can add an optional 35mm full-frame compatible adapter (LA-EA3 or LA-EA4) to mount any A-mount lens to the a7R. The LA-EA4 features a built-in AF motor, aperture-drive mechanism and Translucent Mirror Technology to enable continuous phase-detection AF. Both adapters feature a tripod hole that allows mounting of a tripod to support large A-mount lenses.
Carefree shooting in tough environments is yours thanks to comprehensive dust and moisture resistance measures that enhance reliability by helping to prevent water and dust from entering the body. These measures include sealing around the buttons and dials, as well as a protective double-layered structure that tightly interlocks panels and components.

Is anyone familiar with Plant Maintenance by SAP? Looking for any comments or suggestions on this software.
Plant Maintenance is part of a package that was developed by IBM as the Asset Management module within SAP. When configure correctlly is very powerful as is most CMMS. If your company is using SAP as its Business Management System, Plant management is an additional module. Lots of flow charting to develop your system.
I am familiar with the system. However, I have been told by some who use it that it is not that user friendly. I am using Infor/Data Stream 7i which is a very user friendly system.
Hey dkubena,
It is part of the Warehouse management module of SAP. In 2005 we(NASA) looked at adding the Warehouse module to our suite of SAP. Budget cut made us go another direction!!!!!!
I am still on MP2 6 and am thinking about upgrading to 7i or switching to a new system. Can you tell me more about 7i? How did you get to 7i? How was the learning curve/transition?
There are certainly many options for an enterprise level CMMS. In terms of a comparable option for replacing MP2, there are several. I represent Maintenance Connection and we have done over a hundred MP2 upgrades to our platform. If you're interested, check out www.maintenanceconnection.com or give me a ring @ 530-312-0968.
@ mmilenovic
Depending on your requirements, there is a simple upgrade to Infor EAM Business edition. There are extra tables where your old MP2 will be stored and you will have new functionality and a web based platform.
there are easy upgrade routes to Enterprise Edition and Asset Sustainability (if you wish to add energy consumption to help with condition based maintenance) just by changing the keycode.
Infor EAM (Datastream 7i) is a great easy to use system and there are instances of people using it to frontend other (legacy all-in-one difficult to use) systems.
There are many demo videos on Infors site or our own http://www.e-cocoon.com/case-studies/view/121/0/
Tony (based in the UK)
Disclaimer: ex-Infor and now working for an Infor reseller so I am bound to be biased!.
If you are still interested in switching to a new CMMS system, I invite you to visit our website at www.revereinc.com or call 205-795-3681 to learn about our IMMPOWER EAM/CMMS application.

Hi there,
If your think of changing CMMS vendors, please look at Tabs FM (http://www.tabsfm.com). They're sure to have a solution.
reactive, planned, asset, sla and kpi, mobile solutions.
I heard from several universities at APPA that the change from MP2 to 7i was almost like going to a new system entirely. You may want to investigate other systems out there before making the jump.
yes, it is a upgrade with more capabilities including moving from a client server architecture to a web based system. As with all upgrades, there is a learning curve.
However, with the ability to simply import your existing MP2 data and a company (Infor) that is very keen to upgrade MP2 and MP5 users to Infor Enterprise Asset Management (the new name for 7i) this is a much much easier route than starting again from scratch. You will also have the option of having your solution hosted by Infor as all that is required now is a web browser to access.
Infor EAM also gives you a simple upgrade route between versions - change the serial key and you have the ability to use condition based maintenance using readings from Water, Air, Gas, Electricity or Steam meters - otherwise known as WAGES.
You can try ManageEngine FacilitiesDesk.
FacilitiesDesk offers you an integrated package for managing your facilities, from maintenance to space, property and move management to asset tracking to purchasing & contract management and reports generation, all at an affordable price point.
I have given below few links for you,
Website: http://www.facilitiesdesk.com/
Demo: http://demo.facilitiesdesk.com/
Download: http://www.facilitiesdesk.com/download.html
The knock on them that I heard was that it is not super user friendly. Truth be told, I'm biased since I work for an asset management company that makes a program for government utilities (drinking water/ waste water/ electic/ gas/ light) etc. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns- 866-758-6582 x 319

Comments about ISM Adamo Typhoon Saddle:
After my previous saddle wore out and was not comfortable anymore, I tried the Typhoon. I had won it at a cycling event and thought it was too weird looking to ride. I am glad I finally put it on my road bike! It took a couple of short rides to get it set up perfectly, but it is the most comfortable saddle I have ridden. I am female, middle aged, ride 30 to 50 miles at a time and was tired of having to put up with saddle sores and pinching. I no longer have to put up being uncomfortable on my rides!

The organization of the last five chapters creates a useful resource for teachers. Each begins with a research-based description and moves into sound instructional practices, giving the teacher a complete understanding of how to meet the needs of students."

A Better, Bolder Peace Corps
Given that there are roughly half the number of Peace Corps volunteers serving our nation compared to the more than 15,000 who served in 1966, and given that many countries continue to request more volunteers or new Peace Corps programs, the National Peace Corps Association continues to strongly support initiatives to grow and expand the Peace Corps.
At the same time, the Peace Corps community realizes and promotes ideas and policies that will make the Peace Corps not only bigger, but also better and bolder.

Looking for a treat without the trick? Well look no further than www.yadkinripple.com, where this week The Elkin Tribune, The Yadkin Ripple's sister paper, is kicking off its latest online contest.
Just in time for the beginning of the holiday season, The Tribune and its key advertising sponsors are hosting a virtual costume party and they are inviting everyone to join the merriment.
Winner of the Virtual Costume Contest will receive a $150 grand prize, which would be a nice little start on holiday shopping.
That's the treat. Much like the Cutest Kids and Cutest Pets contests run by The Elkin Tribune, prizes will be awarded in several categories which includes, of course, the overall winner with the best costume. Couple that with the braggin' rights associated with having the best costume makes this a winning party in which everyone should want to take part.
Winners are chosen by online visitors who will be allowed to cast votes — one per day — for those pictured in their best, funniest or cutest costume. Voting begins on Nov. 3 and continues until Nov. 10, and winners will be announced the following week.
Soyworx is the title sponsor, with the $150 grand prize going to the overall winner, while Blue Ridge Women's Center is sponsoring the Cutest Costume category, where a $50 cash prize is being awarded. Alps Mtn. Affordable Hearing Aid Center is sponsoring the Most Original Costume category, also with a $50 prize.
Photos can be submitted from now until the day before voting ends, Nov. 3, although all are urged to enter early to start planning on how to get the votes.
Just like with other Elkin Tribune contests, participants — whether entering, voting or viewing — must have a valid email address, which must be listed as they fill out the online form.
To submit, visit www.yadkinripple.com, click on the Virtual Halloween Contest logo and follow the steps to upload the photo and enter.

This is the page of the old version of Scriptom. As the new version, Scriptom 2.0, brings with it a couple breaking changes, you may still want to use this version. However, we highly encourage you to switch to the newer version which solves a certain number of bugs and provide a much better integration to COM / ActiveX components.
Scriptom is an optional Groovy module developed by Guillaume Laforge leveraging the Jacob library (JAva COm Bridge). Once installed in your Groovy installation, it allows you to script any ActiveX or COM Windows component from within your Groovy script. Of course, this module can be used on Windows only.
Scriptom is especially interesting if you are developing Groovy shell scripts under Windows. You can combine both Groovy code and any Java library with the platform-specific features available to Windows Scripting Host or OLE COM automation from Office.
Zip bundle
The easiest way for installing Scriptom is to unzip the Zip bundle in your %GROOVY_HOME% directory.
The distribution contains the jacob.jar and jacob.dll, and the scriptom.jar. The DLL needs to be in the bin directory, or in your java.library.path to be loaded by jacob.jar.
Building from sources
If you are brave enough and prefer using the very latest fresh version from CVS Head, you can build Scriptom from sources. Checkout modules/scriptom, and use Maven to do the installation automatically. If your %GROOVY_HOME% points at the target/install directory of your groovy-core source tree, just type:
|Code Block
maven -Dgroovy.install.staging.dest=%GROOVY_HOME%
Let's say we want to script Internet Explorer. First, we're going to import the ActiveX proxy class.
Then, we're going to create a GroovyObjectSupport wrapper around the ActiveXComponent class of Jacob. And now, we're ready to use properties or methods from the component:
Note however that explorer.Visible returns a proxy, if you want to get the real value of that property, you will have to use the expression explorer.Visible.value or explorer.Visible.getValue().
For the moment, Scriptom is in a beta stage, so you may encounter some bugs or limitations with certain ActiveX or COM component, so don't hesitate to post bugs either in JIRA or on the mailing lists. There may be some issues with the mappings of certain objects returned by the component and the Java/Groovy counterpart.
But for the moment, event callbacks are not supported.
There is an experimental implementation currently in CVS Head,it does not work with the groovy command, but it does work when launching a script from a Java program with the GroovyShell object. There is perhaps a problem with Classworlds or Jacob, and the different classloaders. If anyone has a clue, I'm game!
If you checkout the Scriptom sources, you will find a few samples in the src/script directory.
I will show you some samples in the following sub-sections.
Scripting Internet Explorer
|Code Block
import org.codehaus.groovy.scriptom.ActiveXProxy // instantiate Internet Explorer def explorer = new ActiveXProxy("InternetExplorer.Application") // set its properties explorer.Visible = true explorer.AddressBar = true // navigate to a site explorer.Navigate("http://glaforge.free.fr/weblog") Thread.sleep(1000) explorer.StatusText = "Guillaume Laforge's weblog" Thread.sleep(2000) // quit Internet Explorer explorer.Quit()
Scripting Excel
|Code Block
import org.codehaus.groovy.scriptom.ActiveXProxy // create a proxy for Excel def xls = new ActiveXProxy("Excel.Application") xls.Visible = true Thread.sleep(1000) // get the workbooks object def workbooks = xls.Workbooks // add a new workbook def workbook = workbooks.Add() // select the active sheet def sheet = workbook.ActiveSheet // get a handle on two cells a1 = sheet.Range('A1') a2 = sheet.Range('A2') // sets a value for A1 a1.Value = 123.456 // defines a formula in A2 a2.Formula = '=A1*2' println "a1: ${a1.Value.value}" println "a2: ${a2.Value.getValue()}" // close the workbook without asking for saving the file workbook.Close(false, null, false) // quits excel xls.Quit()
Warning: on my machine (WinXP Home), there is still an Excel.exe process running. I have no clue why Excel is still running.
Mixing VBScript or JScript with Groovy
|Code Block
import org.codehaus.groovy.scriptom.ActiveXProxy // invoke some VBScript from Groovy and get the results! def sc = new ActiveXProxy("ScriptControl") sc.Language = "VBScript" println sc.Eval("1 + 1").value
Scripting the Windows Shell object
|Code Block
import org.codehaus.groovy.scriptom.ActiveXProxy // showing the current directory def cmd = new ActiveXProxy("Scripting.FileSystemObject") println cmd.GetAbsolutePathName(".").value sh = new ActiveXProxy("Shell.Application") // minimizing all opened windows sh.MinimizeAll() // opens an Explorer at the current location sh.Explore(cmd.GetAbsolutePathName(".").value) // choosing a folder from a native windows directory chooser def folder = sh.BrowseForFolder(0, "Choose a folder", 0) println folder.Items().Item().Path.value def wshell = new ActiveXProxy("WScript.Shell") // create a popup wshell.popup("Groovy popup") // show some key from the registry def key = "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Internet Settings\\User Agent" println wshell.RegRead(key).value def net = new ActiveXProxy("WScript.Network") // prints the computer name println net.ComputerName.value
Scripting Windows Media Player
|Code Block
import org.codehaus.groovy.scriptom.ActiveXProxy import java.io.File // create a proxy for the Shell object def sh = new ActiveXProxy("Shell.Application") // use a Windows standard folder chooser def folder = sh.BrowseForFolder(0, "Choose a folder with wav files", 0) // get the folder chosen def folderName = folder.Items().Item().Path.value println "Playing Wav files from: ${folderName}" // create a Windows Media Player (from its Class ID) def player = new ActiveXProxy("clsid:{6BF52A52-394A-11D3-B153-00C04F79FAA6}") // for each file in the folder new File(folderName).eachFile{ file -> if (file.name.endsWith("wav")) { println file player.URL = file.absolutePath // play the wav for one second control = player.controls.play() Thread.sleep(1000) } } // close the player player.close()
When event callbacks are supported, you will be able to subscribe to the player.statusChange event, so that you can play the wav entirely, before loading a new sample (instead of listening only to the first second of each sample).
Converting a Word document into HTML
This program takes a Word document as first parameter, and generate an HTML file with the same name, but with the .html extension.
|Code Block
import org.codehaus.groovy.scriptom.ActiveXProxy import java.io.File def word = new ActiveXProxy("Word.Application") word.Documents.Open(new File(args[0]).canonicalPath) word.ActiveDocument.SaveAs(new File(args[0] - ".doc" + ".html").canonicalPath, 8) word.Quit()
Printing the contents of your Outlook Inbox
|Code Block
import org.codehaus.groovy.scriptom.ActiveXProxy def outlook = new ActiveXProxy("Outlook.Application") def namespace = outlook.GetNamespace("MAPI") // There is only "MAPI" // 6 == Inbox; other values in Outlook's VBA documentation def inbox = namespace.GetDefaultFolder(6) def mails = inbox.Items println "Elements in your Inbox: " + mails.Count.value for (i in 1..mails.Count.value) { def mail = mails.Item(i) println i + ": " + mail.Subject.value + " (" + mail.Size.value + " bytes)" }

TRUCKEE, Calif. - Traffic was backed up for miles on Interstate 80 east on Friday after a big rig collided with a concrete wall and guardrail, officials said.
Roger Turgeon, 73, of Raymond, N.H., was traveling eastbound on I-80 west of Floriston at about 8:30 a.m. Friday in a 2010 Freightliner big-rig truck going approximately 55 mph when he lost consciousness for unknown reasons, the California Highway Patrol said in a Monday press release.
The truck drifted to the left and struck the center concrete wall before drifting back across both lanes of traffic and striking the guardrail. The vehicle ended up going up a dirt embankment, overturning and rolling down the embankment.
The trailer tore open, causing its contents to spill. Cleanup crews were called in to assist in the cleanup effort.
The right lane on I-80 east, west of Floriston, remained closed from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. as cleanup crews worked to clear the scene. The left lane remained open.
Turgeon suffered minor injuries and was treated at Tahoe Forest Hospital, according to CHP. Alcohol and/or drugs were not factors in the collision.

Kitchen Appliances
Like home theaters and audio electronics, adding new kitchen appliances may increase curb appeal by giving your home the extra "wow factor," but it will not increase the home value dollar for dollar unless you've done an entire renovation. (If this is the case, remember to limit spending to 15 percent of your home's total value so that you can recoup most of your remodeling costs when you sell.) Top-of-the-line appliances make the home more desirable, which could lead to a quicker sale, especially if you end up with two or more buyers trying to outbid each other for your home. But the actual monetary value added to a home with updated kitchen appliances is minimal in comparison with the rest of the house necessities that buyers will be looking for, such as modern bathrooms, spacious rooms, natural lighting, etc.
The ultimate key to adding home value is to focus on the things that are important and necessary to buyers. Modern kitchens and bathrooms are much more necessary than a home theater. However, if everything else remains equal, a home with a theater set-up might draw more interest than a home without. The problem is that it's too subjective to spend lots of money on expensive new electronics if you won't get any benefit out of them yourself. It's better to make sure that all of your electrical outlets have been updated to accommodate whatever electronic gear your buyers choose to bring with them, instead of providing them with electronics that they may not want. Added phone lines, internet hook-ups, and data jacks are also a good investment in preparation for selling your home.

Women's Basketball Unable to Slow Wingate in the Second-Half; Fall 61-45 Late to Bulldogs
November 16, 2009
CHARLOTTE, N.C. Wingate University shot a combined 50% from the field in the second half en route to a 61-45 non-conference win over Pfeiffer University in womens basketball action on Monday afternoon in the final day of the Queen City Classic. The win keeps the Bulldogs unbeaten on the early season at 2-0 while the Lady Falcons remain winless at 0-2.
Jessica Walters had six first-half points to lead Pfeiffer to a 22-19 advantage at the break. The Lady Falcons had the lead for 18 of the 20 minutes in the first period as Jamila Harris drained a three and knocked down a jumper for her five points helping Pfeiffer to the three-point lead at the half.
In the second half, Brittany Cox canned a three that gave the Lady Falcons their biggest lead of the night at 28-21, but Wingate would responded with a 10-0 run to take the lead on a three-ball by Emily Parrish. After a pair of free throws by the Lady Falcons Devona Knight, the Bulldogs would streak again with eight minutes to play going on a dozen-point run to put the Lady Falcons away for good.
Harris led all scorers with 11 points on the night. Parrish paced the Bulldogs with her eight points as Wingate out-shot Pfeiffer 42-23 in the second half.
The Pfeiffer Lady Falcons will take the rest of the week off preparing for the 2009-2010 Conference Carolinas opener. Pfeiffer will host Lees-McRae in the conference opener next Tuesday, November 24th at 5:30 p.m.

Now that the Emergency Boarding Facility for Sandy animals is closed, we're taking a moment to look back at the hundreds of amazing reunions that we got to witness there.
We want to thank Rachael Ray for her generous gift that allowed us to launch the facility, and to thank the many animal welfare organizations from near and far who helped us run this operation.
We also want to take a moment to thank all of our supporters. Without you, we couldn't have helped any of the families whose pets we boarded after Sandy—nor could we have helped the thousands of others who benefited from our other Sandy relief programs like search-and-rescue and food distribution.
We invite you to watch this video and remember that our work is sponsored by your generosity and kindness!
Tonight, hundreds of animals who were once boarded with us are now sleeping near their loved ones once again.
Our boarding facility also housed stray animals found in disaster areas in the wake of Sandy. Those who weren't claimed after exhaustive efforts to find their families are getting happy endings, too: All were transferred to either our Adoption Center or our rescue partners for adoption, and some have already found loving homes.
From the bottom of our hearts: Thank you, ASPCA supporters! We're committed to staying ready to respond to any natural disaster at a moment's notice, and we're so glad you're in our corner.
Well, I can't say it any better than some of the other posters, but I am always appreciative of the way that you help helpless animals. Nothing makes me as sad as an animal that is cruelly treated or subject to trauma or disaster. They are so innocent and can't understand what is happening to them. I wish I could donate more than the monthly pittance that I do send. Hopefully some day I will be able to.
Way to GO ASPCA!!! You do miraculous work :-;-), and HAVE BEEN DOING IT for over 170 YEARS. You have my UNDYING support and loyalty!
May God bless ASPCA ~ all the people who work tirelessly to rescue the animals and reunite with their families. May more people donate to the cause and help ASPCA continue their great efforts in saving animals.
Martin Luther King Jr. is quoted as saying, "Never, never be afraid to do what's right, especially if the well-being of a person or animal is at stake. Society's punishments are small compared to the wounds we inflict on our soul when we look the other way."
You and all of the wonderful people commenting here restore my faith in humanity. Wish we had people like you in cruel Latin America. There are good people for sure, but we aren't able to join them because there are no honest and real associations. We work alone and it is known that union makes the force. I sometimes find myself feeding cats that other people feed and I am sure I'm missing cats that never see a piece of food in days.
Wish Latin America were more organized and less stupid and cruel. It is so easy to destroy a life and so so difficult to restore an animal faith in humans and to save lives. They destroy in minutes, we can't fix their souls in years.
The Mayor's Alliance for NYC's Animals was pleased to partner with the ASPCA to provide volunteers at the emergency boarding facility and transport to move pets to and from the facility, including transporting pets back to their families. We are proud to be a part of the Animal Planning Task Force of the NYC Office of Emergency Management and to work collaboratively with the ASPCA, AC&C of NYC, VERT, HSUS Pets for Life, and our other APTF partners.
Thanks to the ASPCA! What a wonderful job you have done! Taking care of our four legged friends as well as you do! Thanks for having heart!
I volunteered there for only a day since I do alot of tnr etc etc but I must say the people working there were sooooooooooooo sweet and took so good care of the animals it was awesome so Im not surprised they found so many good homes....
God bless you for all your wonderful work. I am so happy for the pets and their families. There's a special place in Heaven for animals and people who love and take care of them.
I am so glad you where able to help the Animals and reunite them with their Families.God bless you for the good work you are doing

Through cutting-edge advertisement campaigns on television, billboards, public transit, and the Internet, Mercy For Animals is working to open the hearts and minds of millions of consumers to the plight of farmed animals and the benefits of a vegetarian diet.
By placing ads on popular channels like MTV, Mercy For Animals is bringing the message of compassion into the living rooms of millions of teens and young adults across the country.
Watch MFA's latest pro-vegetarian TV ads:
The provocative commercials have moved many viewers to change their perspective:
"The commercial I viewed made a great impact on my fiance and I. That instant we decided to become vegetarians. I cannot say how much impact your commercial has given us."
"Shocking, yet informative commercial ... It's just so sad and horrifying! Today was grocery shopping day and I was extra careful today because this was fresh in my mind."
"I saw your commercial on MTV, such a shocking 30 seconds … Did the trick."
Mercy For Animals runs advertising campaigns on bustling bus and subway systems in cities from coast to coast. MFA's recent transit ad campaigns include:
The response to our thought-provoking campaigns has been heartening. Here is one such reaction:
"During one morning commute, I was captivated by a poster on the train with a photo of a caged pig and a question 'How much cruelty can you swallow?' It included a sentence about farm animals' mutilations, confinement and violent deaths. It was a true "Aha" moment – it suddenly hit me that by eating meat, I was contributing to animal cruelty. As a life-time animal lover, I couldn't stand it – I swore off meat that day, and soon became a vegan and an animal rights activist."
Featuring the same hard-hitting messages as the bus and rail campaigns, MFA billboards are driving home the message of veganism to millions of commuters.
During a time when the web is quickly reshaping the way the world communicates and receives information, internet-based advertising is becoming more relevant and effective than ever before.
Most of MFA's internet ads direct people to web pages on MeatVideo.com and ChooseVeg.com, which automatically start playing undercover video footage from factory farms and slaughterhouses.
Below is an example of one such video:
We've had an incredible number of people tell us that they've become vegetarian as a result of watching the online videos after clicking on the internet ads. Here are a few such comments:
"I came across your website by complete accident – clicked on an advertisement by mistake and was drawn in by the video. Thank you for doing what you do. You just made a long-time meat lover never eat a bite of meat again. You're doing these poor animals the justice and proper care they deserve."
"I found your organization on Facebook ad and I just clicked it for fun. But now I've seen the video that shows how cruel the meat industry is, I want to be a vegetarian. I REALLY Thank you for the information and I wish that all the animals in the world treated well."
"I was looking for a recipe to make turkey for Easter dinner, so I clicked on the link that said "if you eat turkey..." I was horrified by what I saw...I just can't eat meat anymore."
