CLU honored as community-service leaderUniversity's service learning, volunteering highlighted
Posted: Tuesday, June 04, 2013 11:37 am PST
Kirsten Wilson moves a log during the winter service trip to tornado-ravaged Alabama.
(WASHINGTON, D.C., Calif. – June 4, 2013) For the third year in a row, the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) has honored California Lutheran University as a leader in volunteering, service learning and civic engagement.
CLU was named to the 2013 President's Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll for engaging students, faculty and staff in meaningful service. Selection criteria included the scope and innovation of service projects, integration of service learning into the curriculum, commitment to long-term campus-community partnerships, and measurable impact on communities.
About 2,400 CLU students completed a total of 45,000 community service hours in the 2011-2012 year.
Faculty members from all disciplines provide service-learning opportunities as part of CLU's effort to guide students to find their vocations. Nearly 600 students engaged in academic service-learning projects during the year. The projects included finding solutions to problems faced by immigrant communities in Los Angeles, tending a garden to feed the homeless, and working with faculty members to counsel nearly 1,000 low-income residents through Community Counseling Services.
Volunteers recruited through CLU's Community Service Center contributed more than 11,000 service hours through 28 programs. Additionally, 20 volunteers traveled to Alabama and the Dominican Republic during academic breaks to assist with tornado recovery and healthcare.
The CNCS launched the Honor Roll in 2006 and oversees it in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Education, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Campus Compact, the American Council on Education and Campus Compact. The CNCS is a federal agency that engages more than 5 million Americans in service through its Senior Corps, AmeriCorps and Social Innovation Fund programs. It also leads President Barack Obama's national call-to-service initiative, United We Serve.

The move saved the company but, understandably enraged Intel, which sued for contract and patent violation. AMD countered by charging Intel with monopolistic behavior …and the war was on.
It has been raging ever since, with Intel acting like an angry bull trying to shake off the ferocious badger clamped to its back, and AMD hanging on for dear life. At least that was the public image. In reality, for all of their feuding, the two companies desperately needed each other. AMD wouldn't have existed without having Intel's innovations, from one processor generation to the next, to build upon and modify. It also essentially survived on Intel's leavings -- much of its revenue came from companies, such as Compaq, that didn't want to work with Intel.
Intel's need for AMD was more subtle. The company so dominated this multibillion-dollar industry, often with hardball tactics, that it was at constant risk of having the Justice Department or similar international agencies pursue it on anti-trust charges. Having a nice, not-really-threatening foil like AMD served Intel's interests nicely: It could always point at it's neighbor and say, "See? We're just fighting to survive in a highly competitive market."
As for us consumers, we needed the two companies because, simply, AMD kept Intel honest. As long as the smaller chip company existed, the far-more important and innovative Intel had to stay in a perpetual crisis mode, pushing the technology forward, maintaining Moore's Law …and making all of us the beneficiaries.
But having a company earn nearly a billion dollars per year in revenues using your own product patents was a constant irritation for Intel, especially its fiery CEO Andy Grove. Hence the lawsuit, which dragged on amid claims and counter-claims for 12 years. It was only after Intel's senior management, weary of the distraction and worried about Intel's growing image as a bully, finally mutinied in 1996 and brought the suit to an end in a comparatively fair agreement in which Intel retained its patents, and AMD got the right to sell its latest generation of Intel clones.
No one really thought the feud was over, though. After all, AMD was now a billion-dollar company and had developed the capacity to create its own products. And that's just what it did -- and, to the astonishment of the tech world, actually produced a superior processor to Intel with its 1999 introduction of the Athlon chip.
The miraculous Athlon, and its immediate successors, would prove to be the high-water mark of the AMD story. Intel may have stumbled in its product development (underscoring the importance of having an AMD) but ultimately succeeded -- where AMD didn't -- in the transition from its founders to a new generation of leaders.
And, by the middle of the decade, AMD was in trouble. In October 2008, the company announced it would spin off its manufacturing operations in a deal with the Abu Dhabi government.
AMD is still in trouble, although Intel was no longer cheering at the news. The chip giant now understood the value of competition …especially as a fading AMD put a predatory Intel in high relief. Worse, a dying company is a desperate company and AMD's growing accusations about Intel's behavior drew a ready audience in Washington, and especially in the E.U., where there is always an interest in taking down successful U.S. companies.

A threatening letter demanding the release of suspected Indian Mujahideen terrorists arrested from the state over the past few days was today delivered to the Kota SP's office.
"The threatening letter came to my office by ordinary post in which the sender demanded release of the terrorists arrested in the state in the last few days," Kota SP Satveer Singh told PTI.
The letter threatened of consequences if the terrorists arrested from Jaipur, Jodhpur and Sikar were not released, following which security arrangements were tightened, he said. Singh said in the letter the sender's name was mentioned as "Rafiq".
The SP said senior officials at the police headquarters and the ATS had been communicated about the letter.
Investigation is on to identify and arrest the sender, he added. Five suspected IM terrorists were recently arrested from Rajasthan. Zia Ur Rehman alias Waqas, a Pakistani national wanted in connection with several bombings, was arrested outside Ajmer Railway Station on March 22.
At his instance, his three accomplices--Mohammad Mahruf (21), Mohammad Waqar Azhar alias Haneef (21), both residents of Jaipur, and Shaquib Ansari alias Khalid (25) of Jodhpur were arrested from their residences the next day.
Later, Addas (22) was arrested from Sikar on March 30.

Even if the camera is throwing out 2 syncs, how come the flash hooked directly to the camera doesn't trigger twice?
I'll scope my camera this weekend. Should be easy to see what's coming out of it.
Anyone live around Philly with a 1V who wants to let me try it out with my equipment?

Ok seriously I am so tired of explaining that my DS was a preemie when we are out. For example sometimes people ask how old and I say his actual which is now almost 10 months. Some people comment that he is small. I do not think he is small. He is probably a little over 20lbs and 29in. Anyway people will say 'oh really wow he is small for a 10 month old" So then I tell them he was a preemie. Not that I mind telling people he was a preemie but I do get tired of the comments about how small he is! It annoys me when someone says "my sisters baby is 10 months and he is a lot bigger" or whatever. I think it is tacky! Why are people so caught up in comparing each other's babys! Ok sorry I just needed to vent for a minute.
Do you ever get tired...
My twins are 21.5 months old and weigh 22lb and 23lbs (31-32inches tall). I get comments ALL the time about how tiny they are. DH thinks it is crazy, but when ever people ask how old they are I say their age and then automatically say they were born 10 weeks early which is why they are tiny.
April - Mom to twins Zak & Ryder (born 8/5/07, 30 weeks) and Tyler (born 4/26/12)
My son was 14 weeks early- is now 23 weeks actual and 9 weeks adjusted. He was born 1 pound 7 ounces and is now 11 pounds 2 ounces. When people ask me how old he is, I sometimes give the whole "well, he is 23 weeks, but he was a preemie.....etc." sometimes I just say his adjusted age if I don't feel like talking.
Normally, I am happy to tell the whole story, because I am sooo proud of my DS and his journey, as I am sure all the mommies here are.
I tried posting then and now pics here but I can't figure out how to do it-- they are in my profile.
Leeann- wife to Patrick
Proud mommy of Nate - born 1 pound 7 ounces- now over 30 pounds!
and honestly ladies and gents it doesn't get better with age.
oldest to youngest
Derek 7 years 70 pounds 4 feet 8inches tall (99% for everything) HUGE for his age. Looks 10 easy maybe 11. get he's huge all the time (not fat, very muscular)
Austin 6 40 pounds 44 inches tall (5%) looks 4 maybe. tiny
the twins: 15 months actual 12 months adjusted: Hannah 19.6pounds 29inches tall, Olivia 19.8 pounds 29 inches tall. It's funny how some will say "they are so tiny" and five minutes later "they are so big" to us their huge: starting out at 3 pounds and dropping to the 2's they are huge now.
Derek- 8yrs happy and healthy, Austin- 6yrs: 35week preemie & CHD, Hannah & Olivia 17 months 29 week preemies
I agree with you. I said that to my mom the other day and she thought I was being dumb. Our daughter Hayley is 3 months old, but looks 3 weeks old. Everyone comments how small she is. If we are in public and one person says something it doesn't bother me... but the other day we were at a banquet and I had to tell our story about 15 times! It did get old quickly. The way people talk about it too makes me feel like it's my fault she's small, and that there is something wrong with her! She is very heathly and doing everything any other 3 month old would do- she's just only 8 lbs! Oh well! At least people are noticing our adorable child! :)
First time mom to preemie Hayley Michelle born 2/15/09, due 3/21/09

Home (office) on the road
Don't try to pin down Don Vardo, a petite workspace/guest studio with several green features ... it's capable of leaving when the open road beckons.
Wed, Jan 27, 2010 at 08:31 AM
On Monday, I blogged about the Archipod, a prefab "garden office" designed to give work-from-homers a very slight commute … a quick walk to the backyard. Now, here's another tiny green structure, the Don Vardo, that's ideal as a workspace or studio for those working not from home, but from the road. Or, it's great for work-from-homers with large parcels of property who want to mix up their daily work locale.
The inaugural design/build project from Portland, Ore.-based tiny home construction company Portland Alternative Dwellings (PAD), Don Vardo is a charming, petite (petite being the operative word) guest studio/home office built onto a 7x10-foot trailer in the event you want to cancel your afternoon Skype commitments, pull up anchor, and hit the open road.
Several green features are packed into the diminutive Don Vardo including radiant floor heating, a desk with an eco-friendly Paperstone top, cork flooring, reclaimed kitchen cabinetry, efficient double-hung windows, a LED rope light, and French doors made from reclaimed Douglas fir. In addition to a cozy kitchen nook, there's also a couch that pulls out into a double bed but be aware, like the Archipod, there's no bathroom facilities in Don Vardo.
On the market for a mini mobile hideout? PAD founders Katy Anderson and Dee Williams are selling Don Vardo for $22,000.

"Simply increasing inorganic fertilizer use and water supply or applying organic farming systems to agriculture will be unable to satisfy the joint requirements of increased yield and environmental sustainability," the scientists added. "Increasing food production on limited land resources will rely on innovative agronomic practices coupled to the genetic improvement of crops."
One of Schroeder's research advances led to the discovery of a sodium transporter that plays a key role in protecting plants from salt stress, which causes major crop losses in irrigated fields, such as those in the California central valley. Agricultural scientists in Australia, headed by co-author Rana Munns and her colleagues, have now utilized this type of sodium transporter in breeding research to engineer wheat plants that are more tolerant to salt in the soil, boosting wheat yields by a whopping 25 percent in field trials. This recent development could be used to improve the salt tolerance of crops, so they can be grown on previously productive farmland with soil that now lies fallow.
Another recent discovery, headed by co-authors Emanuel Delhaize in Australia and Leon Kochian at Cornell University, opens up the potential to grow cro

Unfortunately, a thank you isn't that simple for most of us and consequently, doesn't get done. Some of you who knew me 40 years ago may be skeptical as you read my writing today, but life is about change and hopefully most of us change for the better. Most of us can attribute change to personal experiences or pivotal moments in our lives, but sometimes it just sneaks up on us and we realize it in hindsight. Yes, that's what they say, "Hindsight is always 20/20."
As the years have taken me down life's highway, I haven't had many speed bumps, detours, or dead ends. Somewhere along the way it dawned on me that as I looked left and right most weren't as fortunate and brought me to several conclusions. First, if I'm that fortunate, shouldn't I be thankful? And if I'm that thankful, how do I express it? A lot of us think of many noble deeds that we keep to ourselves and never get done.
Some would say that we should go to church and thank God for his blessings, and that works for many. Some would say that they deserve their good fortune because they're special. Everyone has to find their own degree of thankfulness and what they're willing to do about it. I believe it's all about where, when, and to whom do you apply it.
Thanks are something that has to come from within. If you believe that life owes you good fortune, several bad things happen – you won't work to achieve it and if you do achieve you won't appreciate it or be thankful. When you dig down deep inside yourself and search for your most inner thoughts on thankfulness, it will allow "A Simple Thank You" to come easier.
I find that when I contract work I expect to be paid, but "A Simple Thank You" really is rewarding also. A simple thank you from me to them is another way of showing appreciation for opportunity. Without opportunity, there wouldn't be as much good fortune or thanks, now would there? These are just guidelines for good repeat business also. Both contractor and customer enjoy an environment of mutual happiness and appreciation. It's like the old song goes, "We belong to a mutual admiration society."
When I thank them as they pay me, that's customary, but when they say, "We thank you," that means they feel they got what they expected and more. That's rewarding to both of us. Other forms of the simple thank you come on a daily basis. They may occur on a morning visit to the foggy woods or at night just before bed. It's usually these times that life is slowed down enough to create the time and place for us to count our blessings. Do we ever outgrow our need to be put in "time out"? Maybe life has been so good or so bad that we just really need some self-analysis and time to think about it. Hopefully when these magic moments occur, we can motivate ourselves to follow Yogi Berra's advice, "When you come to a fork in the road, take it."
Isn't this pivotal moment what determines our fortune in life? It's all about choices. Yes, Yogi leaves us somewhat confused as to which fork to take, but he will make a choice and he will make the most of it. Don't you think most of us are only as happy as we allow ourselves to be? If we can always try to find the humor, or the positive side of life's cards that we're dealt, we will know how to play the hand, stay in the game longer, and walk away a winner. I know that for me, motivation to find the positive element creates thankfulness within, and doesn't allow me to dwell on the negative or depression.
Don't you really believe that a simple thank you works both ways? When you receive thanks, it's rewarding, but when you give thanks it's also rewarding. It gives you a good feeling about yourself because it came from within and it allowed you to not only express yourself, but spread glad tidings. It made someone else feel good too.
In society, civilization, and church, we create laws and rules that really are what's good for the multitudes and their interactions. I really believe that you could throw a lot of that away if everyone expressed heartfelt thank you more often. This would bring about peace in mankind and peace within.
To my readers and to the Portsmouth Daily Times I'm just sayin' – Thank You.

Kanye West's 'Yeezus' Goes Platinum
Kanye West continues his winning streak. The rapper's latest album, 'Yeezus,' has officially been certified platinum.
Kanye West continues his winning streak. The rapper's latest album, 'Yeezus,' has officially been certified platinum.
Kanye West wants to be out of this world, at least when he honeymoons with baby mama and fiancée Kim Kardashian.
It was a good year for 'Yeezus.' Kanye West's tour raked in $25 million in 2013, making it the highest-grossing hip-hop tour of the year.
Oh, Yeezy. We realize he is on a quest for great art, but this is not it! Kim Kardashian shared a photo of her Christmas present from fiance and baby daddy Kanye West.
'Tis the season to poke fun at celebrities on 'Saturday Night Live.' This week, SNL vets Jay Pharoah and Nasim Pedrad, played Kanye West and Kim Kardashian, respectively, on a fictional morning talk show called 'Wake Up with KimYe.' The duo's Christmas show was full of yuletide foolery.
After spewing his vitriol at Nike (and then apologizing), Kanye West has a new target -- the Grammy committee. The Chicago rhymer is not happy that his celebrated album, 'Yeezus,' only garnered two nominations for the 2014 Grammy Awards. Yeezy expressed his frustration during a show in Phoenix, Ariz., on Tuesday (Dec. 10).
As world leaders and media outlets descend on South Africa for the funeral of Nelson Mandela, Kanye West went on Twitter Monday (Dec. 9) to remember the late international hero.
Kanye West has made cameos here and there with fiancee and baby mama Kim Kardashian on 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians,' but they're pretty few and far between. And now the mouth-running rapper is explaining why. Is it because he thinks fake reality shows are trashy? Is it because he feels like he's being used for publicity? Is it because he knows Kris Jenner is diabolical?
Just because you're family doesn't mean you'll automatically be invited to a wedding -- especially if it's THE celebrity wedding of the year. Just ask Brody Jenner!
Set your DVRs. Rumor has it that Kanye West and Kim Kardashian's marriage ceremony may be televised.

Signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) in MRI is expected to grow linearly with increasing field, while a BOLD increase of more than linear is expected [1], allowing a significant higher resolution in BOLD fMRI at ultra-high fields [2]. On the flip side, increased B0 field inhomogeneities aggravate distortion artifacts in EPI BOLD imaging at higher field strengths. Additionally, stronger T2* relaxation during the EPI read-out leads to increased blurring effects, partially offsetting the higher nominal resolution. Both of these problems can be alleviated by shortening the EPI read-out using parallel imaging and/or segmentation. In the extreme case, only a single echo is acquired in every TR, transforming the EPI into a conventional gradient-echo (GRE) sequence. The aim of this work is to develop an effective single-echo GRE sequence for BOLD fMRI at ultra-high magnetic field. To this end, echo-shifting (ES) [3] was combined with an interleaved slice order, in order to optimize echo time, scan time, and SNR for multi-slice BOLD fMRI.
All experiments were performed at 9.4 T on a healthy volunteer with informed consent and IRB approval. A custom-built head coil was used for signal transmission/reception (8 transmit / 18 receive channels). An echo-shifted GRE with interleaved slices was developed, using an acquisition strategy that was recently proposed for an EPI sequence [4]. Parallel imaging (R=2 using GRAPPA [5] with ACS pre-scan) and partial Fourier (6/8) were used to accelerate image acquisition. Other sequence parameters were as follows: FA = 22°, effective TR/TE = 80/20 ms with ten interleaved slices and two echo-shifts, slice thickness = 1 mm (+25% slice distance), 1 mm in-plane resolution, TA per repetition = 4.32s, 70 repetitions, total TA = 5min. The paradigm consisted of finger tapping with the right hand, alternating between 20 s of rest and 20 s of tapping. For analysis, the data were processed with FSL FEAT [6,7] after brain extraction, using a standard hemodynamic response function and temporal filtering. Data processing was repeated with and without spatial smoothing, using a Gaussian filter kernel (FWHM=1mm). In addition, a high-resolution GRE image served as a reference (FA = 25°, TR/TE = 500/14ms, resolution = 0.23x0.23 mm2, slice thickness = 1mm, 16 slices). Activation maps were registered to this reference using a six-parameter rigid body model.
Figure 1 shows the time series without spatial smoothing for the voxel with maximum z-score. A strong BOLD activation (±40%) is observed, explained by the fact that the corresponding voxel lies inside a vein. Typical activations in the motor cortex were approximately ±4%. Figure 2ab shows an overlay of the smoothed activation map over a) the averaged raw image and b) registered to the reference image. In Figure 2c-e, the left motor cortex is superimposed with activation maps with and without spatial smoothing. The position of veins close to the motor cortex strongly correlates with high BOLD activation.
The results show that the proposed method is well suited for high-resolution fMRI at ultra-high magnetic field. Advantages compared to EPI are that it results in less T2* blurred and virtually distortion-free images. This comes at the cost of longer scan times (4.32 s for 10 slices vs. 2s for a typical >=20 slices EPI). Further optimizations and higher acceleration factors may help to close this gap, although we believe that EPI will remain more time-efficient. Another possible advantage for auditory fMRI applications is that the proposed sequence creates very monotonous, mostly low frequency noise. Interestingly, and apart from its advantages compared to EPI, the proposed method also becomes more feasible with higher field: Due to shorter T2*, less echo-shifts (i.e. less gradient switching and diffusion related signal loss) are required to optimize the echo time for BOLD.

In 2007, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) prohibited "building exclusivity" clauses in contracts between apartment buildings, real estate developments, and other multiple dwelling units (MDUs) and cable, direct broadcast satellite (DBS) and other multi-channel video program distributors (MVPDs). At that time the FCC also sought comments on whether some or all MVPDs should be prohibited from using "bulk billing" or "exclusive marketing" arrangements.
The FCC released an order yesterday ruling that its 2007 MDU Exclusivity Order does not prohibit either type of arrangement and that such agreements remain permissible.

In a move that has surprised everyone, the Reserve Bank of India in its mid-quarter monetary policy review has not changed either the policy repo rate or the cash reserve ratio (CRR). The repo rate remains at 7.75 per cent and the CRR at 4 per cent. On the eve of the policy statement there was an almost universal expectation that given the levels of inflation the RBI would most certainly hike the interest rate — signalling policy repo rate by at least 0.25 percentage points. Some also expected a change in the CRR. Liquidity levels in the system are comfortable. The extraordinary liquidity tightening measures that were introduced to support the rupee are being wound down. Liquidity conditions have also improved due to higher capital inflows from abroad in the wake of special facilities for banking capital and for non-resident Indians. With all other rates — the reverse repo, the marginal standing facility rate and the bank rate — being pegged to the repo rate and therefore remaining unchanged, the RBI has decisively opted for a status quo in its monetary and liquidity measures. The rest of the policy statement is an elaboration of this stance, which is based on the belief that monetary policy should not always be reactive.
Inflation is no doubt a serious problem: CPI inflation stood at 11.24 per cent in November, its highest level since the new composite index was introduced. Headline WPI inflation at 7.52 per cent has been moving up and is well above the RBI's comfort level. Underpinning both are high food, especially vegetable, prices. The traditional belief that monetary policy will have little influence over supply side factors has been proved wrong, and irrespective of where inflationary pressures originate they need to be countered with all available policy measures. Persistent inflation reinforces inflation expectations. While maintaining that there is no room for complacency, the RBI feels it has enough reasons to wait and watch. For one thing, there is evidence that vegetable prices have started coming down. Second, the disinflationary impact of stable exchange rates will ease the pressure on prices. Finally, the lagged effects of monetary tightening since July should help. The decision not to raise the rates is obviously a debatable one. There is no room whatsoever for complacency. Should the moderation in prices not pan out as expected, the Reserve Bank says it will take action even outside the policy dates. The traditional policy dilemma of growth versus price stability remains. The latest policy statement reveals a more contemporary dilemma of whether to act immediately against inflation or wait for some time in the expectation of prices moderating. Timing is critical, and the RBI can be expected to remain vigilant.

Enel Chooses Trayport(R)'s Internal Marketplace(SM) to Optimise Trading
provider of energy trading solutions, today announced that Enel Trade S.p.A.,
the trading subsidiary of
Trayport's GlobalVision Internal Marketplace.
GlobalVision Internal Marketplace will help Enel optimise their trading
activity by centralising internal order flows for Enel Group's companies
before routing orders to the appropriate desks for execution in the wholesale
Enel will use Internal Marketplace to trade internally amongst Enel Trade
S.p.A. and Enel Group operative companies including Endesa S.A. – the Spanish
utility purchased by Enel in 2009. Endesa S.A. is also a Trayport client
using its GlobalVision Trading Gateway technology.
"By selecting Trayport's Internal Marketplace, Enel Trade will be able to
reduce operative risks and costs, to maximize netting opportunities and to
simplify traders' execution," said
Trade S.p.A. "At the same time, our internal counterparties will be provided
with real time and transparent access to energy markets through a quick and
easy execution platform."
Enel produces, distributes and sells electricity and gas all over
operating in over 40 countries. Enel is also one of the most active players
on all the European Gas and Power markets and on the main international
energy markets. Enel trades energy products via Trading Gateway.
"Internal Marketplace gives organisations like Enel the ability to
improve internal order flows between trading desks, portfolio managers, sales
and other departments and even subsidiaries" said
Manager, Trayport. "It also allows Enel to concentrate internal liquidity and
optimise trading opportunities before going to the external market."
Internal Marketplace is available to trading entities looking to
consolidate existing order flows at different levels within their
organisation on a single platform, reducing infrastructure and maintenance
costs. It uses straight-through processing of internal deals which reduces
operational risk, allowing for better scheduling and effective auditing.

Karen DeWitt / NY Public Radio
Rochester Mayor Tom Richards, Monroe County Executive Maggie Brooks, New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg and mayors and county leaders from around the state came to the state Capitol to support Governor Andrew Cuomo's push for pension reform, saying they are "crashing and burning" under the rising costs.
Mayor Mike Bloomberg, who organized the lobbying trip says the issue is very simple- pension payments are driving municipalities to near bankruptcy.
"We really are up against it," said Bloomberg. "We are going to have fewer services, we are going to have fewer employees, and in some cases we are going to have higher taxes if this continues."
The Mayor and other city and county leaders from Rochester, Syracuse, Westchester and Suffolk say they've begun a bi partisan lobbying effort to back Governor Andrew Cuomo's plan to enact a new benefit tier for public workers hired in the future. It would have reduced pension payments and for the first time, the option of a 401k style plan.
The mayors says they planned meetings with several key legislators to hope to convince them to adopt the governor's plan, though Bloomberg had harsh words for the legislature's policy on pensions over the years, which he called a "charade".
"They keep going on and on, having both sides of every single issue," Bloomberg said.
Bloomberg says when he first took office, annual pension costs were one and half billion dollars a year for the City, now they are eight billion dollars annually.
Rochester Mayor Tom Richards says while his city's pension payments are much lower than that, proportionately, they are just as devastating to his budget. He says by next year, all of the money collected in city property taxes will go for mandatory school and pension payments.
"We'll have none left," said Richards. "That doesn't make any sense."
State worker unions have opposed the proposed pension changes, saying future workers would see their retirement benefits reduced by as much as 40%, or, if they choose 401k's will be subject to gyrations of the stock market.
Onondaga County Executive Joanie Mahoney says the pension changes, though are not against unions.
"This isn't anti labor," Mahoney said.
Mahoney and others say if they have to keep paying ballooning pension costs in the future, they will hurt the labor market even more, because there will be fewer opportunities for them to hire workers.
"The jobs will be gone, the families will be gone, the businesses will be gone if we don't do something about it," Mahoney said.
Governor Cuomo has been saying in recent days that he is "flexible" on whether the 401k option needs to be included in a pension reform agreement with the legislature.
"It's not a philosophical debate," Cuomo said Wednesday. "It's about saving money."
Cuomo says if the legislature can come up with an alternative plan that saves the $113 billion dollars that the governor estimates can be saved in future decades, then he's willing to consider it.
Mayor Bloomberg says he's not going to "complicate" Cuomo's efforts by insisting on the 401 k option for the pension reform plan, but he says defined benefit plans have become largely unaffordable.
Senate Republicans have said they are open to Cuomo's pension reform changes, Assembly Democrats have not yet committed to it, and some Democrats oppose the plan.

"He's one of those guys that had a plan, and he executed it very early in our collegiate life. He knew what he wanted to do, and you saw him working day in and day out. He inspired me to be a better football player, a better human being just by the way he carried himself. I always tell him that. I always thank him for that.""That's the kind of guy you want to bring around your kids, to say I knew him," Foster said. "He's a model human be...

Mark Baines from '93 till infinity
Thanks to Sidewalk mag, who've been rummaging around in the VHS archives and have pieced together another "VHS Mixtape" comprised of some of Mark's finer moments from the late 90's/early 00's that might have otherwise slipped through the interweb cracks.This brought back so many memories and shows just how long Baines has actually been killing it on a skateboard.

GRATIS — At a Thursday, June 19, Gratis Village Council meeting, Susan Laux of Mote and Associates discussed the beginning stages of Gratis' Ada Doty project, made possible through the CDBG grant the village has received.
The Ohio Public Works funding round is set to begin. "There's a three-year pipeline and you basically go in and then you work up through the pipeline to a point of consideration for funding," said Laux.
Another village in the county, Eldorado, is also in the same process, but is balancing another project within their village, she said. Funding between the two projects for Eldorado has proved to be time consuming, and more expansive than the village had previously believed, as additions have been made to the project, causing the price tag to increase.
Because of this, Laux spoke with Preble County Engineer Kyle Cross, to ask him to "do a flip-flop and put the Gratis project in where this Eldorado project is, and Eldorado's going to move back a couple of years because they're not going to be ready to do their other project for a couple of years," said Laux.
Cross said the voting committee is to decide the final outcome of the switch, however he believes there should be no issue. According to Laux, this change of time line for villages is common. The Village of Gratis' projects include the Ada Doty Street and storm sewer phase two projects.
"We would combine all of that together, we would also include the Mack Street project, the waterline project, into that so you could use the money you're putting towards Mack as part of your match, and get your percentages up so your application would score better," said Laux.
The Village of Gratis will be asking for a $308,000 grant from the Ohio Public Works Commission, as well as $17,000 in grant funding from the CDGB grant, however the village must gather $85,000 of their own monies.
Scored by Laux, the Village of Gratis currently has 71 points for their project thus far.
"Usually what happens is, the cutoff [for funding] is around 80 or 81 points; the county has some priority points where they give out five points to one application, 10 points to another application, and 15 points to a third application. Normally what they do is they look at applications' scores, knowing it'll take 80 or 81 points to be funded, they try to give those points to the different projects so they'll be above that threshold line," said Laux.
Laux said the Village of Gratis could potentially receive the 10 extra points to push the project over the threshold to a total of 81 points.
In other business, it was reported the EMS Department has switched to a new software system, and Mayor Kathy Lewis requested the department share the system's passwords with council regarding scheduling and administrative information in the system.
The Utilities Department discussed a recent pipe burst in the sand filter, and council moved to approve the expenditure to repair the pipe. A recent incident left a fire hydrant in disrepair after a driver collided with it. The insurance company of the driver will be covering the cost of the replacement.
Financially, the village has seen very little change to their general fund, according to the Finance Department's report.

Now I know NOTHING about Magic The Gathering I just LOVE CCG/TCG games. I've played the YuGiOh XBLA game to death and want something new. I've downloaded the first games trial and played a few games and I am getting the hang of the mechanics of the game.
Mainly getting it for singleplayer duels, so is there a reason to buy the Magic 2013 over the 1st or 2nd games? Do either of the game have currency to buy booster packs to improve the decks or do you just play with the starter deck?

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
What Affects the Test
Reasons you may not be able to have the test or why the results may not be helpful include:
- Having a lot of emotional stress or doing strenuous exercise before the test.
- Trouble sleeping. Prolactin levels are highest during sleep. So if you do not sleep well, your levels may be lower than normal.
- Stimulating your nipples.
- Taking certain medicines, such as birth control pills, high blood pressure medicines, tricyclic antidepressants, or medicines for mental illness, such as phenothiazines.
- Using cocaine.
- Having a test with radioactive tracer a week before the prolactin test.
What To Think About
- Men and nonpregnant women normally have low levels of prolactin. The only known problem caused by a lack of prolactin is not being able to make milk after pregnancy. So even people who have an abnormally low level of prolactin are not treated for the condition.
- Men may have a prolactin test if a man lacks sexual desire or if he has trouble getting an erection (erectile dysfunction). Prolactin levels may be checked when a man's testosterone levels are really low. To learn more, see the topic Testosterone.
- Treatment for a pituitary gland tumor that is making too much prolactin includes medicines (such as bromocriptine), removing the pituitary gland, or radiation therapy to the gland. The choice of treatment is based on the size of the tumor and the health and age of the person being treated.

let me guess,p0340. it is located just under and to the left of the throttle body,but you will have to replace the synchronizer as well because it is the root cause of the sensor failing due to the bushings failing and causing the top of the synchro to walk and hit the sensor.

Marla Nelson / Contributing Writer
Marla Nelson in an associate professor in the Department of Planning and Urban Studies at the University of New Orleans.
The rapid redevelopment of some of New Orleans' historic neighborhoods since Hurricane Katrina has prompted heated discussions about gentrification and its consequences. For some, gentrification is a welcome sign of revitalization in communities that have long suffered neglect and abandonment. For others, gentrification raises concerns about displacement and the loss of the city's distinct cultural traditions, many of which are rooted in working-class neighborhoods experiencing change.
Gentrification is a complex process of neighborhood change characterized by the displacement of original, lower income residents by higher income households, altering the character of the
neighborhood. The pace and impact of change varies by city and neighborhood and how one interprets or evaluates these changes depends upon their priorities and positioning. In New Orleans, neighborhood change is often associated with the influx of mobile, young professionals, many of whom moved to New Orleans to take part in rebuilding. Their preference for neighborhoods with access to amenities, vibrant culture and street life, historic architecture and relatively low housing costs has helped drive the recent wave of public and private reinvestment in neighborhoods such as the Bywater, Treme and St. Roch. Reinvestment has resulted in the rehabilitation of the housing stock, the reduction of blight and abandonment, streetscape improvements, and the development of new commercial and retail activities all of which stand to strengthen the local tax base. Gentrification can also improve neighborhood conditions for both newcomers and longtime residents through improvements in pubic services, reductions in crime and better access to basic retail services.
While gentrification can produce tangible neighborhood-level and citywide benefits it carries substantial costs, which tend to fall on households and businesses least able to afford them. Rising rents increase cost burdens on low-income families and small, locally owned businesses forcing relocation to more affordable neighborhoods. And while some original homeowners may welcome the rise in property values and the benefits of appreciation, others, particularly elderly homeowners on fixed incomes, fear the resulting increases in their property taxes.
Gentrification's negative consequences extend beyond physical displacement and can result in political and social exclusion. Longstanding community members, many of whom have fought for neighborhood change and improvements, can lose influence and control over community decisions as political power shifts and newcomer's interests dominate. New shops and restaurants that appeal to the tastes of middle and upper class newcomers contribute to the changing character of the neighborhood and exacerbate social tensions.
Many proponents of revitalization and gentrification discount these costs noting that change is inevitable and gentrification is better than the alternative--decay and disinvestment. While change may be inevitable, how change takes shape in cities and neighborhoods is not. We need to move beyond the false choice of disinvestment or displacement and promote more inclusive, equitable development that averts or addresses the negative consequences of revitalization and gentrification.
The preservation and expansion of affordable housing is central to equitable development. Recognizing the link between appreciating real estate prices and affordable housing needs, cities throughout the country have created housing trust funds to combat gentrification. Housing trust funds support the creation or of affordable housing through fees from commercial development or real estate transfer taxes and can help low- and moderate-income families remain in revitalizing and gentrifying neighborhoods.
Another strategy is to create permanently affordable housing through community land trusts. Community land trusts take real estate off the speculative market and ensure long-term affordability for renters and low-income homeowners. In New Orleans, the Crescent City Community Land Trust, a two-year old non-profit, is working to create permanently affordable housing by forming land trusts in neighborhoods experiencing escalating property values and a shortage of affordable housing options.
It is not enough to attract new, well-educated residents to the city. We need to increase the low incomes of our current residents. This entails concerted efforts to attract and grow businesses that pay wages sufficient to support households in the higher cost, post-Katrina environment and workforce development initiatives that connect low-income workers to economic opportunity. Through interventions such as these we can help build strong, economically diverse neighborhoods and help ensure that a broader base of residents benefit from revitalization.

When the weather is nice, I like to walk around outside, enjoy the warmth, and see all the people who like to do the same. Of course, there are always a few people out who are wearing things they probably shouldn't be. While unfortunate, it is understandable. Sometimes they're in a rush, and sometimes they just don't know what looks good on them.
So which explanation would Michelle Trachtenberg choose? What's her excuse for these jeans that totally show off her ass crack? Was her stylist out sick that night? (You know that celebrities never get dressed without their stylist around.) Perhaps it was that friendly man who's holding the cab door open for her. Or maybe she was getting a little frisky with her new man friend, who obviously isn't Shawn Ashmore, at club Butter in New York.
Which one is it? Either way, it doesn't really matter. These low cut jeans may be a bit tight, and yeah, I don't think she's wearing any underwear (not even a thong), but a little Michelle Trachtenberg ass crack sticking out of her jeans is fine by me.

Removing quest stages - Siege of Cair Andros

Nothing says to not remove it while it's the current quest, so remove it as soon as the location is explored.

I would argue that you do not remove it if you explore the location while you are at quest stage 4.
The Citadel says that after you explore it to "remove stage 4 from the quest deck, if able".
I would say though that while stage 4 is the current stage of the quest it is no longer in the quest deck, which seems to suggest an out-of-play area.
For a comparable example I would like to use Fili/Kili which says that when you play one of them, you can search your deck for the other to put into play. And in this instance it has been ruled that if the card you want to put into play is not in your deck (but in your hand or discard pile) then you cannot trigger this ability.

Didn't though the first card was different... and it is not.
From rulebook :
6. Set Quest Cards
Arrange the quest cards in sequential order, based off
the numbers on the back of each card. Stage 1A should
be on top, with the numbers increasing in sequence
moving down the stack. Place the quest deck near the
encounter deck, in the center of the play area.

Hmm right you are. As current quest seems to still be part of the quest deck, then your initial assessment that it be removed upon exploring the citadel should be correct.
