|Quick stats
|Constitutional amendment
|Georgia Constitution
|Referred by:
|Georgia Legislature
|On the ballot
The measure developed following a May 2011 ruling by the Georgia Supreme Court. The court ruled that the state's involvement in the establishment of public charter schools - the Georgia Charter School Commission - was unconstitutional. Specifically, the court ruled that the commission was illegal because it approved and funded charter schools despite objection by local school boards. The ruling does not apply to charter schools that were not opposed by local boards. In total, the ruling is reported to have affected 16 schools.[3]
According to reports, in June 2011 the state Board of Education proceeded to approve applications for 11 charter schools following the ruling.[4]
The Georgia Charter School Commission was created in 2008 in reaction to local school boards rejecting charter petitions. According officials, petitions were rejected because "they didn't like the competition."[3]
A bill enabling funding for state charter schools was signed into law on May 3, 2012, by Governor Nathan Deal. The bill, HB 797, will only have effect if the Georgia Charter Schools Amendment gains public approval in November.[5]
- Kyle Wingfield, a columnist for the The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, wrote in support of the measure saying that the "key to improving the system, rather than merely pouring more money into it, is restoring the state's ability to approve charter schools." He further argues that charter school allow for more innovation and accountability while increasing parents' options for education.[6]
- Senator Mike Crane has spoken in support of the measure saying the school boards should not have full control of public education because the state provides about 50 - 80% of the school system's funding. Speaking at a town hall meeting he asked, "Should all the state dollars go to fund a system of education or should it go to the students?"[7]
- Senator Buddy Carter wrote an opinion piece for the Savannah Morning News that posed counterpoints for a number of arguments against the amendment. Specifically, Sen. Carter argues that the creation of state charter schools will not divert funds from public schools. He also states that the schools are required to be run by local non-profit boards and thus, the amendment would increase local control of education rather than the state's. Sen. Carter also mentions that the amendment is needed due to a Georgia Supreme Court ruling made in 2011 that declared the Georgia Charter Schools Commission unconstitutional because it violated the "special schools" provision of the Georgia constitution.[8]
- The main opposition to the measure is Vote Smart Georgia
- Gary Hobbs, superintendent for Walton County Public Schools, spoke out against the legislatively-proposed amendment saying, "It's disappointing to me the legislative folks would try to go around a Supreme Court decision." He went further to criticize the state's push for taxpayer funded charter schools saying, "We don't have funds to support the public schools we have now, much less start another system funded by taxpayer money."[9]
- Georgia Schools Superintendent John Barge, a Republican, has announced his opposition to the measure, saying, "I cannot support the creation of a new and costly state bureaucracy that takes away local control of schools and unnecessarily duplicates the good work already being done by local districts, the Georgia Department of Education, and the state Board of Education. What's more, this constitutional amendment would direct taxpayer dollars into the pockets of out-of-state, for-profit charter school companies whose schools perform no better than traditional public schools and locally approved charter schools (and worse, in some cases)."[10]
- Tom Crawford, in an August 21 op-ed piece for the Blackshear Times, highlighted counterpoints to several arguments made by supporters of the charter school amendment. Some of Crawford's key points included: there is enough existing choice for parents because there are already 315 charter schools compared to the just over 500 public schools, studies have shown that charter schools perform no better than public schools on average, charter schools divert money from already strapped public schools that are being forced to shorten their academic calendars.[11]
- Some opponents argue that the amendment would harm public education in the state by directing even more state money from public schools to out-of-state for-profit systems. Russell J. Edwards, an Athens attorney and community activist, argues that such a practice is especially harmful because the housing crisis has caused the primary funding for public education, local property tax receipts, to decrease significantly.[12]
Tactics and strategies
On Tuesday, September 25, 2012, a coalition of groups protested outside the Georgia Capitol in Atlanta. Senator Emanuel Jones was among the protesters and said, "We do not support this governor's takeover of usurping the power of these locally-elected school boards to make that decision."[13]
- See also: Polls, 2012 ballot measures
- A March 29-30, 2012, poll by McLaughlin & Associates revealed that 58% would vote for the amendment, while 23% would vote against it, and 19% were undecided. A total of 600 likely voters were polled. The margin of error was +/-4%.[14]
- A September 4, 2012, poll by Sand Mountain Communications revealed that 50% would vote for the amendment, while 25% would vote against it, and 25% were undecided. A total of 1,331 likely voters were polled. The margin of error was +/-3%.[15]

The amendment requires approval on a two-thirds vote by both the State House and State Senate.
The first vote by the House in early February fell 10 votes shy of the two-thirds majority needed.[16] However, another vote was held on Wednesday, February 22, in which the measure, HR 1162, passed the House with a vote of 123-48.[17]
On Thursday February 23, 2012, the Education and Youth Committee passed the amendment 7-5, thus passing it to the the full state Senate.[18]
On Monday, March 19, 2012, the Georgia Senate passed the ballot proposal 40-16, placing the measure on the ballot for November.[2]

Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII
The message you selected is no longer available for viewing.
For me it's not the evolution of the series thats been the problem...[READ]

I like the new battle systems (aka not turn based), I think it's fun and overall very entertaining. I think the graphics are great( though its not something I usually worry about). The worlds that the stories take place in are beautiful to look at and explore. I dont mind liner games, like at all! I was fine with how liner FFXIII was. It really doesnt make too much of a difference for me. So what's the real problem I have then?...
Its everything I enjoy about RPGs in general. The story, and the characters. All the FF games after FFX I just really don't like the characters, I couldnt connect with them, I didnt feel bad for them, I didnt laugh and cry and cheer for them throughout their journey. All the characters after FFX just dont do it for me. They're one dementional(*cough*Lighting*cough*), boring, and unlikable. I mean I realize its all about each persons opinion, but for me, its been really disapointing. The second thing, as I pointed out, is the stories in the last couple FFs. They;ve kind of been like the characters: boring, uninteresting, unlikable really. I think the biggest problem I think, is that they have been PRESENTED so poorly, and that I blame on SE writers. They have done a poor job of presenting the story in a neat, and "finely tuned", if you will, manner. The dialog is sooooooooo bad I want to cry. ("To save the future" was said 9,877 times in FFXIII-2)
Now granted, and again this is just my opinion. If I really like the characters, I can stomach a really lame story, simply because I like the characters and I'm cheering for them. But that has not been the case with the last couple FFs. Its a shame really, because I could care less what SE does to the CORE of the FF games, I just want a decent story and characters I can cheer for! But that has not been the case.
And dont get me started on the music, FF used to have insanely epic, beautiful music, and granted its still pretty good, but its got nothing on older FF games. But thats all I will say about the music.
Alright people, I just needed to poured my heart out. I love Final Fantasy. And I will continue to buy every FF game, cuz I have no self control haha. But yes, anyway, what do you all think? Do I have a point, or do you think I just need to accept that SE will continue to suck so long as the writers are doing drugs...

I like my pancakes with honey or sometimes chocolate.
It's perfect.
No, but seriously I agree with you.

Is it surprising that after well over a dozen of FF titles you eventually outgrow them?
I still don't see the problem here.
I haven't reached that point yet and I find modern FFs just as enjoyable as the old ones. That's about the only difference between me and you.
just by your name and that you are "hating" on final fantasy 7 people are going to call you a nostalgic fanboy. i like your feelings though
gamefaqs. home of the funny and source of information.
I respect you opinion TC, well excluding the part about the music, but other then that I see why you dislike it's story.
Well said.
The contents of this post may not reflect the views of the poster.
While I enjoyed 12 and 13 to a lesser extent the Final Fantasy series grows less interesting to me with every new game. I started with 7 I went back and bought the older games to play and have played every game in the series plus the sequels. I think it was too much of good thing its begun to burn me out. Besides I started playing some of the western RPGs and have found them more appealing.
Currently playing The Mass Effect Trilogy.
I think that's why I'm having such a hard time letting go(of FF) is because its always been the game I can rely on for my RPG fix. I don't play western RPGs, not many at least, tho I probably should get into playing them more. I just like JRPGS a lot more than western ones.
If home is where the hearts is, where do you go when you dont have a heart? ~Dexter Morgan
I never really cared for the stories,
The amount of likable characters in X is considerably lower than IX, but there are still enough. XII had enough as well. XIII only had Sazh.
The music in X was better than most previous games. It was good in XII, but horrible in XIII.
I think it's just XIII that's the problem, but we'll see when XV comes around.

It's finally time—after three months of spirited competition, we are excited to announce the results of the 2013 ASPCA Rachael Ray $100K Challenge. Division 5 champion The Animal Foundation of Las Vegas, Nevada will take home the $100,000 grand prize in grant funding from the ASPCA. The organization accomplished an increase of 1,055 animals' lives saved over the same period during 2012. Congratulations!
The following division leaders will each receive $25,000 in ASPCA grant funding:
Division 1: Washington Animal Rescue League of Washington, D.C., with an increase of 326 lives saved over the prior year
Division 2: Texas Humane Heroes of Leander, Texas with an increase of 389 lives saved over the prior year
Division 3: HALO Animal Rescue of Phoenix, Arizona with an increase of 824 lives saved over the prior year
Division 4: Citizens for Animal Protection of Houston, Texas with an increase of 625 lives saved over the prior year
All told, the 49 Challenge contestants saved 56,379 animals' lives over the course of the exciting three-month challenge—a combined increase of 12,050 lives saved compared to the same period during 2012. We are truly impressed by the dedication, hard work and creativity these shelters employed in order to find loving homes for thousands of animals in need. Congratulations to our Challenge winners, and to all those who participated. You deserve a round of applause!
Linda, I fully agree with you. Other organizations of note do not give away money to get animals out of shelters, but find other ways to teach them how to handle overcrowding without killing them. I have two shelter cats and in recent years their upkeep went up considerable and I feel great giving to responsible shelters who give food to low income or no income people to be able to keep their animal companions
and are not forced to surrender them.
Outstanding commitment from very special people.
I am amazed and overwhelmed at all the animal lovers out there. Thank you Rachel Rea for your generosity! All those beautiful lives saved; it warms my heart!
This news is so heartwarming. Congratulations to all!
Congratulations to all of the prize winners and every organization working toward saving more lives!
Thank you ASPCA and especially all those who worked so hard to get more animals saved this year!!! Thank you!
This is wonderful! But I'm partial to the NV Humane Society of Reno, NV where I volunteer and we adopt huge numbers of animals into the very supportive Reno community every month - thanks to a number of sponsoring stores and special events where this community allows us to showcase dogs and cats regularly.
Thank you all so very much for all your hard work and your huge heart! Let's not stop now! Congratulations!
I totally agree with Diane and Lori. The ASPCA needs to change the rules and make sure that only "no kill" shelters compete. They truly care about the welfare and future of the animals rescued and adopted.
Awesome work big Congrats to All !!!!

Information For:
MA in Economics Internship Program
General Description
The M.A. in Economics internship program is a controlled 3 credit hour class for M.A. students who are at least halfway through their required course of study. The internship course is designed for students who are interested in gaining career-relevant experience. The student must meet the criteria listed below to the satisfaction of the Chairperson of the Department of Economics.
For additional information, students may contact Dr. Richard Kent, Chairperson, 330-672-2366, or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com
Student Eligibility
- A grade point average of 3.0 in M.A. in Economics courses.
- Completion of at least 4 courses by the student in the M.A. in Economics program.
- Demonstration of the ability to work independently and an understanding of the relevance of an internship experience.
Employer Eligibility
- Primary responsibility for obtaining the internship position rests with the student. However, assistance may be obtained from the Department of Economics, or The Career Services Center.
- The internship position should emphasize the use of economics. The position should be with an organization which typically hires M.A. in Economics graduates. The responsibilities, supervision, and training provided to the intern should be comparable to that which an M.A. in Economics in this organization typically experiences.
- The employer may be a profit, a non-profit organization, or government agency. There must be a knowledgeable individual in the organization, preferably one with economic training and responsibilities, who is willing to function as the intern's supervisor.
- For a 3 credit hour internship, the student should work a minimum of 12-15 hours per week for approximately 10 weeks.
- A supervisory representative of the employing firm must provide, in writing, confirmation that he or she is willing to both supervise the internship experience and evaluate the intern's performance (see the attached forms).
- The student should obtain approval from the internship coordinator, and the Chair of the Department of Economics, prior to commencing employment.
Internship Program Requirements
- THE INTERNSHIP PROGRAM PROCEDURE. To obtain permission to do an internship and to enroll in ECON 62092, the student must submit to the Internship Coordinator of the Department of Economics the Request for Permission to Register form (see below) AND a typewritten one-two page proposal for the internship. The proposal must detail the job description and the specific conditions of the job, including the number of hours per week to be worked, the salary agreed upon, the reporting relationships, and how the position is expected to enhance the student's career objectives. The proposal must include the name and phone number of the student, the prospective employer and the faculty member supervising the internship. Upon approval of the internship by the Internship Coordinator, the student will be automatically enrolled in the Internship course (ECON 62092) by Graduate Programs Office.
- THE INTERNSHIP PAPER. At the conclusion of the internship, the student is required to submit a detailed written report to be graded by the faculty supervisor. As a guideline, the report should include the following sections:
- Section I -- The Internship Experience.
- This section of the report presents a detailed description of the internship duties, work assignments, and projects completed. The student should include, as Figures or in Appendices, samples of projects worked on or completed (e.g., reports, projects) during the internship. Information about internship "job title," the time period (dates) of the internship, and the number of hours per day or week spent on the internship should also be included.
- The student must demonstrate an understanding of the significance of the work. Why/how were these tasks important to the organization? Why were they assigned?
- Finally, the student must report on the "results" or the "success" of the efforts. For example, if a survey was done, how good was the questionnaire, how was the data analyzed, what were the results, and what did the results contribute towards "solving" the problem?
- Section II -- Economics Courses and the Internship.
- In this section of the report, the student must discuss, in detail, what material in each relevant Economics course previously completed was used in the intern work assignments. What economic principles, ideas, or elements of these courses were helpful in the internship experience? This discussion should be on a course by course basis.
- The paper should also indicate what economic knowledge was needed for the internship experience that is not presented in the M.A. in Economic courses. Based on your internship experience, indicate how this knowledge could be included in the M.A. in Economics program.
- Section III -- The Internship and Career Goals.
- The final section of the report must contain an appraisal of how the internship contributed to career goals.
- COURSE GRADING. The internship report will be graded on three criteria. The first criterion is CONTENT. The report must fulfill the requirements for the three sections detailed above. Any questions on these pages should be discussed with the faculty member who will be grading the internship paper. The second criterion is writing STYLE. The student must use proper spelling, grammar, and proper sentence structure. The third criterion involves PRESENTATION of the report. This is the equivalent of "packaging." The report must be neat, and any tables, diagrams, figures, or appendices well formatted, etc. The completed assignment should be a product that the student would be able to show to a potential employer as a demonstration of the quality of his/her work.
- THE FINAL GRADE. The course grade for the internship is either S (Satisfactory) or U (Unsatisfactory). Your grade for the internship will be based on both the written report and the supervisor's evaluation of job performance (i.e., the Internship Evaluation Form and a written letter of evaluation). The sealed evaluation MUST be turned in WITH the report (i.e., not before the report is turned in and not afterward).
Registering for the Course
Upon approval of the internship by the faculty advisor and chairperson of the Department of Economics, the student will be automatically enrolled in the Internship course (ECON 62092) by the Graduate Programs Office. The student should not pre-register for the course. The course will be assigned to the faculty supervisor for the specified semester.
Graduate Assistants
Preferably, internships should occur during the summer. However, when an internship is only available during the academic year, those students receiving graduate assistantships should be aware of the following implications for their award:
For a student on a 15-20 hour appointment, he or she must reduce the appointment and stipend by the following amounts:
Internship requires: Appointment must be limited to:
8-12 hours per week 15 hours per week

ATLANTA - The Miami University softball team made a solid attempt to come back from an 11-run deficit, but ultimately fell, 11-6, to Marshall Sunday afternoon in the finale of the Georgia Tech Classic. The RedHawks fall to 1-4 on the season, while the Thundering Herd improve to 3-7.
Marshall took advantage of an error with two outs in the bottom of the first to score five unearned runs off starter Megan Mattera. Jenna Modic and Paige Myers would come in to relieve her, but the Herd kept swinging and scored a run in the bottom of the second and five more in the bottom of the fourth to take an 11-0 lead.
Meanwhile Marshall starting pitcher Andi Williamson kept the RedHawks without a hit through the first four and 2/3 innings of the game. Facing a run-rule defeat with two outs in the top of the fifth, Kylie McChesney would reach on a fielder's choice. Brandi Hernandez broke up the no-hitter with a single that found its way between the shortstop and third baseman. A walk to Tiyona Marshall would load the bases. Kristy Arbour singled to bring McChesney home and put Miami on the board. A walk to Kayla Ledbetter forced home Hernandez and made it 11-2. A double to right center by Allie Larrabee scored two more to make it 11-4. Modic followed with a double of her own to left center to score Ledbetter and Larrabee and make it 11-6. Hailey Reed would single, but the Thundering Herd would recover to get the third out.
Myers held Marshall off the board for the final two innings. McChesney would record a hit and Arbour earned a walk, but the RedHawks were unable to bring another run home.
Larrabee finished the game 1-for-3 with two RBI and one run scored. Modic was 1-for-2 with two RBI.
Miami returns to action next weekend when it participates in the Frost Classic in Chattanooga, Tenn. On Friday, the RedHawks will take on Eastern Kentucky at 11 a.m. and Boston College at 3:30 p.m. On Saturday there will be matchups against Tennessee Tech at 11 a.m. and versus host Chattanooga at 1:15 p.m. Miami will conclude the tournament next Sunday against Lipscomb at 10 a.m.

What can PREVAGE™ idebenone 0.5% do for my skin?
PREVAGE™ with Idebenone 0.5% helps correct the skin damage that you may already have and also protects your skin from future damage. The antioxidant power of PREVAGE™ anti-aging treatment has been shown by clinical respondents to reduce the signs of skin aging in only 4 weeks.
The PREVAGE formula was tested on both men and women, including people with moderate to severe sun damage. These consumers reported significant improvements in the appearance of their skin after using PREVAGE™.
In a recent survey of 18 subjects with severe to moderate photodamage:
In summary, a majority of PREVAGE™ testers reported an overall improvement in their skin's healthy appearance after just 4 weeks of use.
Fine lines and wrinkles, roughness and dryness, and a lack of firmness and elasticity are generally regarded as signs of sun damage. These signs can be diminished and perhaps prevented if corrective measures like sunblock and use of topical antioxidants like PREVAGE™ are incorporated into your daily skin care regimen.

Photo Competition
How does it all work?
Travellers from all over the world are invited to send in their best travel snaps in digital form. You don't have to be a pro, you just have to have a keen eye and a great travel spirit.
Simply upload your photos and they'll be ogled and admired by travellers near and far*. Winners are chosen by a panel of photo-loving Intrepidites and after getting a personal high-five from us, will be announced to the world in Intrepid Express, our email newsletter.
The competition closes on 30 June each year. Entries received after this date are entered into the following year's competition.
Each month there is a new theme so to have a chance to be our monthly winner, you'll need to upload a photo that encapsulates the relevant monthly theme.
*Please note that not all images entered will be eligible for the competition. If they don't follow our guidelines for entry then they won't be accepted or published in our online gallery (see 'please note' below).
Monthly themes
July – Local faces
Getting up close and mixing it with the locals is the best thing about travel. Who did you meet on your last adventure? We'd love to see some local faces.
August – Australia and NZ
From the big red earth to the long white cloud, the Antipodes packs a punch when it comes to exceptional travel – whether it's in the vast, dusty plains of the Outback or the epic volcanic landscapes of Aotearoa.
September - Food
Spicy Spanish tapas, tangy Thai satays, fresh Peruvian ceviche… let's not kid ourselves, a region's gastronomy can be a massive travel motivator. Send us a snap that sets our tummies rumbling and we'll indulge your appetite for travel. Instagrammers be warned though – bleached shots rarely serve culinary justice!
October – Anything Goes
Well, within reason. We don't need to see photos of your new car or the wedding cake that was so delicious you had three slices. But anything travel related? The world is your oyster.
November – South East Asia
The nature is pristine, the cities are intoxicating and the locals smile with all their hearts. Show us the sights of Southeast Asia through your lens.
December – Transport (the crazy ways we can get from A to B)
Planes, trains and automobiles? Try camels, cyclos, jeepneys, tuk-tuks, feluccas and hot-air balloons. If it's weird, wonderful and made for movement, we're all for it. Just no shots of travellers on top of elephants, thanks.
January – Wildlife
It could be cute, it could be scary, it could be toothed or it could be hairy. If you've shot one of Mother Nature's creatures (with your camera, of course) we'd love to see it.
February – Challenges
What really challenges you on your travels?
A trek, a train or a deep fried tarantula – if it's outside the quiet suburban streets of your comfort zone, we want to see it.
March - Famous landmarks (can include people)
They may have been snapped a million times before, but that doesn't make them any less impressive. The world's most famous landmarks have been given that title for a reason – show us your pick.
April – National Parks, Jungles and Mountains
Some places are best just as they've always been. Raw and rugged, wild and weathered, preserved and protected – we like to see nature just how nature intended.
May – The Mediterranean
Blue sea, bluer skies, heavenly cuisine and flawless beaches – the Greek Gods chose their stomping grounds well and countless others have followed their lead. What makes you mad for the Med?
June – North, Central and South America
Few places know how to put on a spectacle quite like the Americas. Whether it's mesmerizing Mayan ruins, the brashness of the Big Apple or revelry of Rio, this region knows how to play up in front of a camera.
What can you win?
Each month we have some fantastic prizes up for grabs. For more details, check out the Prizes page.
How to enter...
Head over to the Enter page, where you'll need to enter your details before uploading your selected shot. Then tell us a little bit about the image – where did you take it, were you on an Intrepid trip, is there a story behind it? And if you want to add a caption, you can enter this in the title section.
Please note
We love viewing and sharing our travellers' snaps from around the world but we do have some guidelines around the publication of photos on our site. If you are not seeing your photos appear, it may be for one of the below reasons:
- Intrepid needs to make sure all photos are within guidelines before they are published. This process can take up to 48 hours.
- The required minimum file size (of images) is 1024 x 768, Hi Res, JPEG files. Please send the highest resolution version of your image possible.
- A maximum of 5 photos per category, per person, per month will be accepted.
- This is a travel photo platform. Pictures of weddings, school trips, family BBQ's etc. may not qualify.
- The photo needs to be in line with the monthly theme. Please see above for full list of competition themes. For example, if the theme is Delicious Discoveries, please upload images of food, drink and feasts rather than landscape pictures (as beautiful as they may be).
- On occasion, we may post pictures that are not on theme but these images will not be eligible for the monthly prize.
- Only shortlisted photos will be uploaded to the site.
- No images supplied in hard-copy will be accepted. Only high-resolution digital files will be accepted.
- By submitting the photographs you are agreeing to the licencing terms as outlined in clause 12 of the competition terms and conditions.

Robert Gordon:
The death of innovation, the end of growth
The US economy has been expanding wildly for two centuries. Are we witnessing the end of growth? Economist Robert Gordon lays out 4 reasons US growth may be slowing, detailing factors like epidemic debt and growing inequality, which could move the US into a period of stasis we can't innovate our way out of. Be sure to watch the opposing viewpoint from Erik Brynjolfsson.

DEKALB, Ill. – After the teams split the first two sets, Northern Illinois grabbed a pair of two-point victories as the Miami University volleyball team fell, 1-3 (19-25, 25-17, 23-25, 23-25), to the Huskies Saturday evening. The RedHawks are now 10-14 overall and 2-10 in the Mid-American Conference. NIU improves to 15-11 overall and 7-5 in the MAC.
It was another strong match for sophomore outside hitter Annie Reiswig. She finished with 16 kills, only two short of her career high. She also made only two attack errors in 35 attempts for a hitting percentage of .400. Sophomore middle hitter Jenny Ingle was also solid for the 'Hawks, finishing with 12 kills and a .571 hitting percentage.
Northern Illinois jumped to an 8-2 lead to begin set one. Two kills from sophomore outside hitter Sarah Chaney, along with blocks from Reiswig and Ingle started a 9-3 run that tied the score at 11. The Huskies answered with an 8-4 run that put them in front, 19-15. Ingle and Reiswig each recorded another kill, but Miami was unable to get any closer as NIU took the first set, 25-19.
Tied at seven in set two, a kill from Chaney followed by a block from Ingle and Reiswig began a 6-2 run that gave Miami a 13-9 lead. The run was finished with back-to-back kills by Reiswig. NIU fought back to tie the score at 13, but three kills from junior outside hitter/setter Meg Riley were part of a 7-3 run that put the RedHawks in control at 20-16. Ingle took over with a couple more kills to help Miami finish off a 25-17 win.
Set three was close throughout, as with only one exception neither team ever had a lead of more than two points. With the RedHawks trailing 17-18, a pair of kills by senior outside hitter Madison Dodd were part of a 4-0 run that gave Miami that three-point lead at 21-18. Northern Illinois answered with the next five in a row to take a 23-21 advantage. Riley scored next with a kill, but the teams traded side outs the rest of the way, allowing the Huskies to take a 25-23 victory.
Set four was more of the same as this time neither team ever had more than a two-point advantage. The set featured 18 ties and four lead changes. Ingle was the star in this frame for Miami, finishing with four kills. The key sequence came with Miami in front, 22-21. The Huskies answered with the next three points in a row to create match point at 24-22. The 'Hawks fought it off with a kill by freshman outside hitter Maris Below off of freshman setter Krista Brakauskas' assist, but NIU scored the final kill to win 25-23 and take a 3-1 victory.
Miami hit .222 for the match, while holding Northern Illinois to a .200 hitting percentage. Riley and Brakauskas each recorded double-doubles. Riley finished with 11 kills and 23 assists, while Brakauskas had 32 assists and 13 digs. As a team, the RedHawks finished with 83 digs, led by senior libero Madison Hardy with 28.
After four straight on the road, Miami returns home on Friday to welcome Kent State to Millett Hall for a 7 p.m. match.

Proposal for enumeration support in Modello
Following MODELLO-26, here is a proposal (under construction) for Enumeration Handling in MODELLO.
Model Syntax
|Code Block
... <field> <name>myEnumeration</name <type>String</type> <enumeration> <element> <key>FOO</key> <value>foo</value> </element> <element> <key>BAR</key> <value>bar</value> </element> </enumeration> </field>
Alternativly, we could consider that the value is a java only indication and put that in java metadata. That would lead to a more compact declaration:
|Code Block
... <enumeration> <element java.value="foo">FOO</element> <element java.value="bar">BAR</element> </enumeration>
But that would be a correct notation only if the actual values of the enumeration could be considered an indication for the Java plugin only.
Java class declaration
The above model should lead to a Java class, like:
|Code Block
public class myClass { public static final String FOO = "foo"; public static final String BAR = "bar"; private String myEnumeration; public String getEnumeration() { return this.myEnumeration; } }
now, question is, where to check for model integrity?
Should we provide a setter (setEnumeration) which would require the parameter to be one of the possible values? Like:
|Code Block
private static final String[] POSSIBLE_VALUES = {FOO , BAR}; public String setEnumeration(String valeur) { if (Arrays.binarySearch(POSSIBLE_VALUES, valeur)>=0) { this.myEnumeration = valeur; } else { throw new IllegalArgumentException(...); } }
Or just a plain setter, the integrity being the work of the parser. I guess first solution is more interesting....
Data parsing
Now, when it comes to parsing, how should we handle it? Just pass down the value to the setter, and see if it is ok with the value?
Should we provide support (in the xml file) for both the keys and the values?
Say, with the continuum-model:
|Code Block
public final static int NEW = 1; public final static int OK = 2;
Do we want to be able to handle
|Code Block
in the data?
Or just:
|Code Block
Or both?
This question is a central one, since, most of the other plugins (xml parsers, xdoc, xsd) will depend on this question...
So waiting for someone to provide an answer there

BLACKFOOT — The Blackfoot Police Department is investigating a hit and run that occurred on December 30, 2012 at 12:22 a.m.
A vehicle traveling North on Meridian at Jensen Grove Drive failed to stop at the stop sign, slid through the intersection and crashed into the fence at the entrance to Jensen's Grove. The vehicle then left the scene.
The vehicle appears to be a mid to late 90's Chevy pickup with an extended cab. The Blackfoot Police were able to see the accident on security footage.
A specific color of the vehicle is difficult to determine but it is a light color. There may be damage to the front of the truck to the hood and or front bumper. Damages to the fence on the property were in excess of $1500. If anyone has any information on the vehicle or the accident, please contact the Blackfoot Police Department at 785-1234.

That which God exists? The Christian one, or Vishnu, or Zeus?
That's a good question. Like Turner said, I'm not sure the answer to that question can be a properly philosophical discussion. For my part, yes, I would say the Christian God. It is the rationality of the Christian worldview in conjunction with my faith in his revelation that leads me to him as opposed to other gods. Does that mean I'm correct? Not by your standards, but what makes your standards more correct than mine? Nothing I suppose; that is, nothing that is not presupposed by your worldview (and mine).

Affies recorded a 18-6 win over Paul Roos in the feature match of the SuperSchools on Saturday.
The festival created a north vs south rivalry and it was the northern schools who dominated as hosts Affies, Monument, Waterkloof and Grey College achieved wins against Cape teams.
The feature match saw Affies face Paul Roos. The Stellenbosch school came off a good campaign at the recent St John's festival and beat Grey PE 43-37 last weekend, but they would face the biggest challenge in Affies, who are recognised as the No 1 school in the country at the moment.
It was a close contest in the first half as Affies only lead 8-3 at the break. Paul Roos opened the scoring with a penalty from wing Gideon Meiring. However, Affies took the lead through the boot of Warren Gilbert and a try from wing WJ Strydom.
Paul Roos scored first after the restart with Meiring kicking his second penalty. But Affies sealed the result as Strydom completed a double and Gilbert kicked another three-pointer.
Meanwhile in other results, Florida picked up a hard-fought 20-15 win against the Wildeklawer Barbarians in the opening game. The Barbarians went into half-time 10-8 ahead, but second half tries from hooker Wian Fourie and wing Ramon Samuels secured the comeback victory.
EG Jansen made light work of Framesby as they triumphed 19-0. Flank Chris Kotze, No 8 Ruaan Lerm and inside centre Ruan Barnard touched down for the Gauteng locals.
Waterkloof held on for an 8-3 win against Boland Landbou as they scored all the points in the first half. Kloofies fullback Thys Smit crossed the chalk for the decisive try.
Flyhalf Johan Goosen kicked 13 points in Grey College's 23-12 win over Paarl Gym. Wing Ruwellyn Isbell and scrumhalf Inus Keyser scored tries for Grey while flyhalf Lance Ruthford kicked all Gimmies' points.
HTS Middelburg and Diamantveld battled out to a 3-3 stalemate. Fullbacks Tiaan Swartz and Kobus Bezuidenhout traded penalties in the second half for their schools respectively.
Paarl Boys recorded the only win for the Cape teams as they beat Glenwood 11-9. Glenwood led 9-6 until late in the game thanks to three penalties from Fred Zeilinga, but a late try secured the win for Paarl Boys.
Monument had an easy win against Outeniqua as they triumphed 25-6. Lock Paul Willems, centre Michael Bean and scrumhalf Quintin Marais scored tries for the Gauteng school.
The second round kicks off on Monday 26 April.

Results vs. USC-Aiken (2008-04-23 12:00:00)
April 23, 2008
|Falcons Drop Two to #9 USC-Aiken
|Wednesday, 23 April 2008
|AIKEN, S.C.--#9 USC Aiken defeated visiting Pfeiffer 11-4 in the first game of a two-game set Tuesday evening. In the second game USC Aiken (42-11) turned a 2-1 deficit into a 6-2 advantage and defeated Pfeiffer (26-31) 8-2 on Wednesday afternoon.
In the first game USC Aiken jumped ahead 1-0 early against Pfeiffer starter Chris Russell.
A solo shot off the bat of Eric Shoemaker tied the game in the top of the second.
The Pacers went ahead for good in the bottom of the second, plating three runs highlighted by a long home run.
After an error on Ken Raborn, the Falcons closed to 4-3 in the top of the third with a pair of unearned runs.
Freshman Chris Grandinetti drilled a solo shot off the scoreboard in left on the first pitch of the top of the sixth, ending Russell's outing. The Pfeiffer hurler allowed nine runs, eight earned, on 11 hits while walking one and striking out one to fall to 0-2.
In game two a Falcon misplay of a potential inning-ending double play in the bottom of the fifth led to five unearned runs as Aiken turned a 2-1 deficit into a 6-2 advantage and never looked back.
Bryan Braxton and Zack Pou each had two of the Falcons eight hits while Eric Shoemaker's sac fly in the fourth and Cory Adams pinch hit single to right in the fifth accounted for Pfeiffer's two runs.
Jacob Moore (1-2) suffered the loss for Pfeiffer, giving up six runs, but just one earned, on six hits and four walks, striking out four in 5.0 innings.
Pfeiffer will close out their 2008 season on Saturday at Lander in a doubleheader beginning at 1:00 PM.

"TomTom WORK is the only solution that is able to track our trucks and provide navigation in a single application. This is exactly the solution we have been waiting for."
Michael Seifeddine, Director of Operations for 1-888-TRASH IT! added, "To handle the increasing demands of our rapidly growing residential and commercial junk removal business, we rely on TomTom WORK to provide reliable and accurate tracking and tracing communications to our fleet. TomTom WORK allows us to respond to our customers more quickly with accurate directions and a better response time at a price we can afford."
Key Elements:
- TomTom WEBFLEET: an easy to use web-based service, giving access to 24-hour vehicle management and comprehensive reporting tools. TomTom WEBFLEET allows businesses to view their vehicles' and drivers' exact locations and manage new tasks.
- TomTom LINK: a compact, small unit placed inside each vehicle, allowing users to automatically and cost effectively transfer current vehicle positions (using GPS) and other information (via GPRS) to TomTom WEBFLEET.
- TomTom GO 910 or TomTom GO 510: TomTom's award-winning TomTom GO range provides each driver with their own portable navigation system, allowing users and fleet owners to communicate easily with office staff (via TomTom WEBFLEET and TomTom LINK).
Key Benefits:
- Smart and efficient tracking, tracing and planning. TomTom WORK's tracking and tracing technology is easy to install and allows managers to view vehicles in real-time on digital maps and determine exact locations from their computer. Once the positioned is determined, the best vehicles in-route can be easily selected to manage new tasks.
- Professional reporting. Using TomTom WORK, businesses can produce automatic logbooks of driving time, times of standstill for mileage calculation, and payroll and expense accounting. Managers can receive a variety of daily, weekly and monthly reports for the level of data transparency the company requires.
- Easy and clear navigation. TomTom WORK's smart navigation system orders jobs by destination address, so that tasks can be completed faster. Drivers can plan their day efficiently and reroute as necessary making work easy and hassle free.
- Two way communication. Office-based managers can communicate with drivers by sending orders and text messages, enabling client orders and locations to be updated and new tasks and navigation coordinates to be sent to appropriate drivers. Drivers can send (standard) messages on order and work status.
For under $2 per day, customers can subscribe to the TomTom WEBFLEET solution. Other costs include:
- $500 for TomTom LINK; and
- The cost of a TomTom GO 510 or GO 910 portable navigation device.

Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads
Travel Better.
Tablet Plus
The Standard Downtown LA
550 South Flower Street, Los Angeles, CA, USA
Neighborhood: Downtown
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
It wasn't so long ago that downtown Los Angeles after six P.M. was a ghost town. This is the case no longer, and it's thanks in no small part to the Downtown Standard — in particular, the rooftop bar, with its astroturf, topiary gardens and waterbed loungers, a fixture on the downtown nightlife scene, and a place so exclusive that guests are issued bracelets to guarantee entry.
The former headquarters of the Superior Oil company; the interiors today are bright and funky, and the clientele tends to the youthful and eclectic end of the spectrum. Guest rooms include everything a business traveler could want, including sprawling work desks, T1 lines and cordless phones, but the environment is decidedly slanted toward leisure and entertaining; stereo systems and DVD players are standard, and the minibar contains not just snacks and drinks but also such goodies as disposable cameras and Mr. Bubble for the oversized tubs.
The plush (and bright yellow) restaurant is open round the clock, as is room service, and the menu, refreshingly enough, is both familiar and affordable. The lobby bar is a scene unto itself but the real action happens upstairs, in the retro-futuristic rooftop lounge, where red-suited waitresses serve cocktails surrounded by the panorama of the skyscrapers of downtown Los Angeles.
Please note: The pool will be closed from January 1 through March 31.
How to get there:
The Standard Downtown LA is a 30 minute drive from Los Angeles International Airport but the drive can take up to 45-minutes depending on traffic. Valet parking is available for $33 USD per night.
- Complimentary upgrade upon hotel check-in, based upon availability
- Guaranteed 3pm late check-out

Ballet Dancer and Model Mark MacKillop is a Flexible Fox – The Daily Swoon
Do you long for a man who has the chiseled body of a statue with the sensitive inclinations and flexibility of a dancer? Seems impossible, right? Wrong! We found him! Meet your newest obsession: Mark MacKillop.
According to his official site, Mark can do it ALL: He's a singer, actor, model, and ballet dancer. Not only is he talented, but these skills indicate a guy who's more dimensional than your average cutie. Dancers need delicacy, balance, and sensitivity. Actors need to understand and convey emotions that come from a real place. Same for singers. And a model just needs to look sexy … so basically, Mark MacKillop has the whole package. So to speak.
Originally from Vancouver, MacKillop now lives in New York City, where he's pursuing musical theater. He joined the Atlanta Ballet at 17, which is the oldest running ballet company in the country, and after only six months he was cast in his first principle role as Paris in 'Romeo and Juliet.' Impressive!
MacKillop doesn't just have an incredible body (he does — oh man, he does), but he has this sort of feminine quality about his face, most notably some killer eyelashes. Check out some pics of MacKillop below, courtesy of his Facebook page. Oh, and feel free to cyberstalk away.

The producers of Flashpoint have announced the end of their beloved cop series after 75 episodes and five seasons.
Created by Stephanie Morgenstern and Mark Ellis in 2007 for CTV in Canada. CBS came on board as a production partner in 2008 and Flashpoint ran for three seasons as a successful utility player for the network. CBS made a deal to take on some of the episodes from the fourth season and then ION made a deal to take on the rest, as part of a syndication package.
CTV renewed Flashpoint for a fifth season and, in January, ION followed suit. Production began in February and will supposedly wrap in June. We don't know when they'll air but we do know that those will be the TV show's final episodes.
In a message to fans on Facebook, the producers wrote:
To the Flashpoint Family:
Today we announced to our cast and crew that this will be our final season of FLASHPOINT. While still at our creative apex, we've decided to conclude the series on a high note. This will allow us to give our fans the satisfaction of a fitting series conclusion with our 75th, and final, episode. Producing FLASHPOINT over the past five seasons has been an exceptional adventure, and we are extremely grateful to all of you for being with us every step of the way. We hope that by announcing this now, you'll be able to enjoy the fifth season to the utmost, and properly say goodbye to Team 1 along with all of us.
In response to numerous messages to fans, the producers later wrote, "Thanks to all the fans for your support! It wouldn't have been the same without you. We promise to deliver a memorable final chapter."
What do you think? Are you going to miss Flashpoint? How would you like to see this TV show end?

Results vs. Carson-Newman (2007-02-21 14:30:00)
February 21, 2007
|Baseball Loses to Carson-Newman
|Wednesday, 21 February 2007
|Misenheimer, NC---Pfeiffer's baseball team lost to Carson-Newman 4-3 Wednesday afternoon in non-conference action. Eagle outfielder Adam Kefauver robbed Falcon Bryan Braxton of a game winning home run in the bottom of the ninth to preserve the Eagle victory. The Falcons fall to 6-6 on the season while Carson-Newman improves to 8-5.
Pfeiffer jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the second. Tyler Smith doubled home Kyle Pugh and Shawn Coke.
Carson-Newman came back with one in the fourth when Nick Achberger drove home Michael Brown.
The Eagles took the lead in the seventh when they scored twice. A Cory McGinnis single tied the game and a Falcon error allowed the third run across the plate.
Carson-Newman scored another run in the top of the eighth to take a 4-2 lead.
Pfeiffer loaded the bases with one out in the bottom of the ninth. Bryan Braxton hit what looked like was going to be a game winning home run but Outfielder adam Kefauver jumped up and reached over the fence to make the play. The next batter gounded out to end the game.
Nick Fogleman started the game for Pfeiffer and pitched 5 and 2/3 strong innings allowing only one run. Tim Peele got the loss for Pfeiffer giving up three runs in 3 and 1/3 innings of relief. Mark Carroll got the win for Carson-Newman with three scoreless innings in relief. Logan Simmons got the save.

What People Are Saying
My Favorite Purse Organizer Organizing Junkie
Review by Janet R., Cincinnati, OH
I have never written a review on anything in my life–before now. This is the best thing that ever happened to handbags! I travel about 70% of the year. I just recieved a Purse Perfector as a gift from a dear friend. This is an absolute must for those women who have no time in their lives for much of anything – especially not to fumble for "stuff" in the bottom of a bag or to leave critical things when changing bags.
The Purse Perfector inventor is the: Picasso of purses; Eienstein of evening bags; Hawking of handbags; Bach of backpacks; Faraday of fanny packs; Descartes of daybags; Newton of new bags…well, you get the message.
This is well worth purchasing! 5++++ stars!
Review by Karen N., Newport, RI
The best! Now I'm not stuck with one utilitarian black bag because I'm too lazy to unload all of its compartments just to use another bag for a few hours. Free at last…

Media Advisory re: TV Coverage of 40th Anniversary of May 4Posted May. 3, 2010
Kent State University is providing a series of live uplink coverage opportunities to network outlets and local television stations to assist in coverage of this year's 40th anniversary of the May 4, 1970, incident in which four Kent State students were killed and nine wounded by Ohio National Guardsmen during a Vietnam War protest. The events of May 4 played an important part in the civil rights and anti-war movement. May 4's significance in American history was further confirmed when the May 4 site was recently added to the National Register of Historic Places, a remarkable achievement for a site that is less than 50 years old.
For your convenience, the university is offering the following coverage opportunities to support your coverage:
• Live satellite uplink of the 2010 Democracy Speaker program featuring CIVIL RIGHTS LEADER AND CONGRESSMAN JOHN LEWIS, the last living leader from the March on Washington – MONDAY, MAY 3 @ 6:30 p.m. EST
Satellite: Galaxy 17 Ku Digital Bandwidth: 6 MHz
Orbital Slot: 91 degrees WL FEC: 3/4
Transponder: 19 – Slot 1 Symbol Rate: 3.9787
Downlink Freq: 12065 (H) Data Rate: 5.5
• B-ROLL FOOTAGE FROM COMMEMORATION EVENTS for stations to use when talking about how this May 4 marks the 40th anniversary of the shootings that occurred at Kent State University – TUESDAY, MAY 4 @ 11:15 a.m. EST (use same coordinates listed above)
• USE OF KENT STATE'S SATELLITE TRUCK from the May 4 site for stations interested in sending their own reporters and photographers – TUESDAY, MAY 4
Kent State will provide live satellite uplinked coverage of key events from the 40th commemoration. Kent State reporters will be available for newscasts' live shots from the historic May 4 site via Kent State's Hi-Def satellite uplink truck. The reporters have produced three stories: (1) Lessons learned from May 4; (2) Continuing impact of May 4 on Kent State; and (3) Role of May 4 in the 100-year history of Kent State. Each story will be fronted live and include coverage of this year's commemoration.
Also, Kent State students are available for live interviews from the May 4 site to talk about what May 4 means to today's students at the university.
These reporters and students will be booked on a first-call basis in 10-minute windows that are available for noon and evening broadcasts beginning at 5 p.m. EST and continue through 6:30 p.m. CST. Call to schedule a time window.
