The Department of Economics and Business offers a major in economics and supports several interdisciplinary majors including mathematical economics, international political economy, and environmental science. The college's location, resources, and unique Block Plan calendar allow the faculty to offer students truly extraordinary learning experiences. Many of the department's courses incorporate experiential learning opportunities including guest lecturers, executives-in-residence, and field trips. Field trips range from one-day visits to Denver-based executives to longer trips to Nebraska, Boston or Britain. A large percentage of students take advantage of opportunities to study at another college or university in the United States or to study abroad at institutions such as the London School of Economics. The college also has an exchange agreement with the Jönköping International Business School in Sweden. Students who excel in the major will find many opportunities to pursue independent research projects or to work collaboratively with department faculty, and the department and college have significant resources to support these research activities. Distinction at graduation and other prizes are awarded by the department faculty to majors on the basis of the senior thesis, overall performance in department courses, and performance in courses outside the department and social science division. The department aims to provide students with rigorous grounding in economic principles and business concepts so that they can communicate effectively, analyze data, work independently, and frame/resolve ill-defined problems, in order to provide excellent preparation for careers in business and public service. In addition, many of the department's students attend the nation's finest business and law schools, and pursue graduate study in economics, public policy, and environmental management at leading research universities.
To declare a major in economics, students must complete an approved college-level course in calculus (MA 125 or MA 126) and Economic Theory I (EC 201). Other courses required for the major include Microeconomic Theory II (EC 301), Macroeconomic Theory II (EC 302), Statistics (MA 117 or MA 217), Econometrics I (EC 303) and five electives chosen from three thematic tracks: business, microeconomics and macroeconomics/international topics. Students must complete at least two credits from each of two different tracks, including at least four at the upper (300 or 400) level of the curriculum. Finally, all economics majors work closely with a faculty advisor to complete an independent senior thesis research project growing out of one of their completed thematic tracks (EC 430 for business focus, EC 460 for micro focus, EC 490 for macro/international focus).
Themes are arranged to permit students to develop expertise in at least two sub-disciplines:
- Business courses are EC 211-230, 311-330 and 411-430
- Microeconomics courses are EC 241-260, 341-360, 441-460
- Macroeconomics/International courses are EC 271-290, 371-390, 471-490
Some courses may count toward more than one theme, as noted in individual course descriptions (e.g. 245, 347, 351, 405, 406, 407).
Students considering a major might elect to take 100-level courses in the department as a less mathematical introduction to the discipline, courses which do not count toward the majors. The department recognizes the equivalency of AP scores of 4 or higher for calculus and statistics, and AP Economics as an equivalency for EC 100, but does not consider AP Economics as a substitute for Economic Theory I (EC 201), a course which is predicated upon calculus and other math skills. Transfer students, or students aiming to take courses at other schools for credit for the major within the department, should consult the department chair beforehand (or as soon as possible) to ensure equivalency of their coursework.

The number one rule for any physical training is to stay hydrated. Of course, there's only a limited amount of water one can consume. And drinking only water may not provide you enough electrolytes that are needed to replenish you post your training laps. Nutritionist Nysha Bijlani suggests some healthy drinks you can blend up before, during and after you train for the marathon.
Before: Power sip
"Having bananas allow easy metabolism and it is also the fastest way to get some energy," explains Bijlani. She recommends blending bananas with pulpy fruits, like chikoo, with a couple of almonds, or with almond milk or coconut milk.
After: Green boost
For those of you who dislike having spinach and other greens, this could be a good opportunity for you to experiment. Bijlani recommends you carry along vegetable juice to have after your run. "Carrot, beetroots, tomatoes, gourd; we suggest you have the vegetable of your choice. Add 3-4 seedless dates or squeeze some lime for taste," she says.
During: Hydrating liquids
When you're stepping out for your training session, don't forget to carry a bottle of water. If you're geared up to run the half marathon, Bijlani says there is no need to take high-on-sugar, energy drinks. A healthier option would be to drink lime water. "Citrus fruits—orange juice, sweet lime juice, lime juice with salt to add flavour—also makes for a good option to be hydrated," she says. Coconut water is another good option as opposed to home-made juice which might get oxidised or lose its nutrients.
Sipper basic
Juicing is not an nutrition-option recommended by experts. This is because, there are loss of nutrients due to oxidation. However, as it is important to carry along with you natural energy drinks while you train, Bijlani recommends a way out so you can preserve as much nutrients as possible—use an opaque sipper/bottle to store your drink. "Vitamin C can be lost when exposed to the sun, due to oxidation. The best way to prevent this would be to store your home-made health drinks in an opaque container," says Bijlani.

The kids in Clark County Juvenile Recovery Court don't have the fame of rock stars. But on Wednesday, they found out they have something in common with rock star Trey Anastasio.
The 48-year-old vocalist and guitarist in the rock band Phish stopped by the Juvenile Drug Court in downtown Vancouver and spoke to a group of about 75 people, many of them juvenile drug offenders. Then, he headed to Portland to perform with Natalie Cressman Wednesday at a sold-out show at McMenamins Crystal Ballroom.
"On your worst day, try to remember this is a gift," Anastasio said of Drug Court. "Drug Court is the single best thing that ever happened to me, to my wife, to my kids, to my mom."
An opiate addiction nearly destroyed Anastasio's life. His band had broken up. His family was estranged from him.
"I had sores all over my body," he said.
He was arrested in 2006 while driving in upstate New York and charged with multiple felonies related to his drug use. He was given a choice: spend a year in jail or go through Drug Court.
He chose Drug Court, a program that focuses on rehabilitation rather than incarceration, though incarceration is used as a strong disincentive for relapse. The program also is offered to both juveniles and adults in Clark County.
"At first, I thought it was the worst thing that happened to me. … I'm not going to say it was a barrel of roses," he said.
A judge threw him in jail for two days for being 10 minutes late for an appointment.
"I know what you're going through right now," Anastasio said.
He's been sober for six years, he said.
The first year, he still grappled with anger over being in Drug Court. His family had to move to upstate New York so he could attend regular meetings. In the second year, he realized that Drug Court had saved his life, he said.
Sobriety freed him to enjoy his life and stop hiding from family members and friends, he said.
"I almost forgot what it felt like to feel good," he said.
He told the teenagers in recovery court that they are lucky.
"The fact that this happened to you so young could be the greatest gift that ever happened to you," he said. "Do you
want to be sitting here when you're 50, all your friends looking at you? It's embarrassing."
Or worse, the teenagers could end up in prison, as some of Anastasio's fellow Drug Court participants did.
One friend had almost graduated from Drug Court when he took a joy ride on a motorcycle without license plates and led police on a chase before surrendering. He knew riding the motorcycle was against the rules, but instead of waiting just two weeks until graduation, he drove it anyway. Then, he made the situation worse by not stopping for police. Now, he's in state prison, Anastasio said.
"He couldn't accept success," he said. "It was all in his mind."
Brad Finegood, coordinator of the recovery court, said he met Anastasio at a National Drug Court Association event and had been trying to get him to speak to juveniles in recovery court for two years. When Finegood saw that Anastasio was performing in Portland, he reached out to him again.
Anastasio is also a Broadway composer. He most recently helped write the music for "Hands on a Hardbody," which had its final performance Saturday.
Rolling Stone has named him one of the "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time."
Anastasio said Drug Court and recovery are "50 times more important to me than any of (that) stuff."

Food stamp benefits for 1.8 million Ohioans took a hit on Nov. 1.
Now food banks are bracing for a massive cry for help from those living on the edge of poverty.
A temporary boost to the state's Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or SNAP has expired, resulting in a loss of $193 million from low-income Ohioans' food budgets over the next year.
"I imagine probably about mid-month our soup kitchens will get hit," said Susan Bartosch, spokeswoman for the Second Harvest Food Bank of North Central Ohio.
Her group runs 64 soup kitchens, pantries, and shelters in Lorain County, including Oberlin.
The working poor, those struggling with unemployment, and retirees are among those expected to be hardest hit, Bartosch said.
A mother with two kids on SNAP benefits is likely to see a reduction of $29 per month in her benefits, she said. On average, that family will only be able to put food on the table 12 to 15 days out of the month.
For a family of four, the cuts will mean an average of $36 less per month in SNAP benefits, according to the Ohio Association of Foodbanks.
"Last year, our 12 member foodbanks and 3,300 member charities distributed emergency food valued at about $223 million," said association director Lisa Hamler-Fugitt. "Just these cuts alone equal nearly all of the food our emergency food assistance network was able to distribute. We have no new sources of food or funding. Our network cannot fill this gap."
Across the nation, 47 million Americans are expected to encounter food stamp cuts.
Congress isn't helping. The parties are at odds over a new five-year farm bill with SNAP provisions, and both the House and Senate are asking for cuts ranging from $4 billion to $40 billion.
The majority of Ohioans receiving SNAP benefits are children, seniors, and adults whose hours have been cut severely, said Hamler-Fugitt.
"Now is not the time to take these benefits out of low-income households or local economies," she said.
Bartosch said that even before the cuts there has been a decade of increased demand for assistance.
She expects that Second Harvest will give out eight million pounds of food this fiscal year in Lorain, Huron, Erie, and Crawford counties — a new record.
The clients she sees come from all walks of life. Many work but are living just on the edge of stability.
"People are back at work, but some epople are underemployed. They're making less money. They're paying their rent, they're paying their utilities, but maybe one month they have a big medical bill. What gives? It's likely to be food," Bartosch said.
The need was incredibly great this year, but Second Harvest struck partnerships with area farmers big and small. Together, they were able to stockpile potatoes, carrots, apples, and other common vegetables and fruits in cold storage.
But when SNAP cuts take their toll this month, the biggest donation needs will be the peanut butter, tuna, cereal, soups, beef stew, and vegetables.
The only silver lining, Bartosch said, is that this is the time of year when people's minds turn to giving because of the upcoming holidays.

A new year & a new photo project because I refuse to stop using my camera regularly! I'm going to call this series- My Everyday Life.
It's not a photo everyday; it's a collection of pictures from the week.
What you will see: moments of time, food, prettie things, details of the world around me & a few self portraits too! It's like 365 food but with less food and more living.
Let the fun begin!
This is what this week looked like:

Here's the last week:

The other day I was showing Casey a gift guide I saw online for men and he said "I would never want you to buy me any of that stuff!" I happened to like all the items on said gift guide and was wondering if it's because the list was made by a woman. So I asked him to come up with his own Gift Guide and here's some of his suggestions. A guide FOR THE MAN, by a man. Enjoy!
Today I'd like to introduce you to a talented friend of mine, Jenifer Solomon Lake- owner of Sprout Studios!
Jenifer makes the most amazing pieces of jewelry. She's got such an incredible eye for color, it's no wonder she's an art teacher!

Violence isn't minor
In response to "Minor May Day violence" (May 2): An attempt is made to blow up a bridge (act of terrorism) in Cleveland, the accused with connections to the Occupy movement. Substantial violence with police throughout many cities in the country, actual riots, destruction of property and personal injuries and arrests, also with connection to the Occupy movement. And you run this Associated Press piece with the description "Minor"?
Please tell us when it becomes a major story.

Life in prison ends killing, too
Many feel that the death penalty is warranted because it keeps the accused killers from killing again (Letters, April 30). If that is the most persuasive argument, why not a sentence of prison without the possibility of parole? It would ensure that the criminal could not kill again while it would avoid the costly, endless appeals whenever the death penalty is imposed. These amount to much more than the cost of incarceration.
It would also avoid the possibility of an innocent person being executed. Since 1973, over 130 inmates have been released from death rows throughout the country due to evidence of their wrongful convictions.

Absence of birds
I hope you will not do any features on the Cabrillo National Monument's celebration of the Migratory Bird Day on May 12. After pleading with them for 15 years to please stop denuding the park, they finally finished wiping out the trees and groves that attracted so many migrating birds. This location once had a plethora of birds stopping to rest on their flight north to breed, but is now quiet and lifeless except for the occasional local bird.
I've always said that if they wanted to put things back to its original state, they should pull up the huge parking lot and tear down all the buildings.

Falling well short of 'world class'
In "San Diegans' view of the future" (April 28), the San Diego Foundation tells us San Diegans want to be a "world-class city" with another airport, a new stadium and more coastal development, while in the next section the Watchdog tells us the county grand jury reports San Diego's roads have deteriorated to the point that half our streets are in poor condition, requiring $478 million in repairs ("Grand jury: S.D. roads go from bad to worse," Local reports, April 28).
Those of us who have lived in San Diego since the 1960s have seen our fair city by the sea destroyed by greedy developers telling us we need to be a "world-class city" while our roads fall into disrepair and sewage runs into the sea. Why not drive up to L.A. if you want a world-class city and make the developers pay for decent roads and sewage treatment before they are allowed to spend another dime on huge moneymaking projects that further tax our infrastructure?
Edward Kinsey
La Jolla
I am sure that this San Diego's chronic poor street conditions aren't news to anyone. But despite this, it doesn't seem to have the attention of the candidates running of local office as they would rather debate about employee pension matters and not the terrible state of the city's critical infrastructure. This includes not only the streets but the condition of the water and wastewater systems.

I love Craigslist Fusion and have been using it for a long time. Unfortunately userscripts.org is now down so I have nowhere to get the updates for Chrome.
Vy, Have you considered moving the script to https://openuserjs.org or https://greasyfork.org?
Very handy, a good solution for folks who still want control over their environment. The ability to filter certain extensions is handy for developers as well.This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.4).
Very handy for working around the Thunderbird LDAP timeout issue https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79509.
Note it only works on the Global LDAP as set in Preferences > Addressing > Directory Server. And for your account's Composition and Addressing settings you need to have it set to "Use my Global LDAP server preferences".
See https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/header-tools-lite for an alternative that works with newer TB versions.
Sadly doesn't seem to be working in later Firefox versions (11+). "Tab Utilities" has an option for this also I think, but it also doesn't seem to be working - http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?p=11976311#p11976311.This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2).
Was very handy (5*) for developers until 1.0 when the uninstall, disable, and enable were removed. I have patched it to add install again and hope to add enable/disable back also. Hopefully the developer will accept the patches. See http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=1780295&p=11755691&hilit=patch#p11755691
I love having the Add-on Collector, especially when combined with Massive Extender. Please do not sunset it.This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.1).
Very handy extension, wish it had a little more info (e.g. groups) and would love if it supported editing in the tab - at least notes.This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.6.6).
This is useful info, and I am looking forward to it being included in natively (which is https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=661881).
The current addon does cause a spurious "unable to read chrome.manifest" error in the nightlies (similar to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=586610).
Should be built in as an option!
Works fine on TB5 if you install the Add-on Compatibility Reporter (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/).
Works fine on TB5 if you install the Add-on Compatibility Reporter (Add-on Compatibility Reporter).
I would like to tweak the colors though, they don't match what I am used to in Outlook 2007.
Please update description to state that its built-in to Firefox 4 and save many of these people some trouble....This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.7).
Simple and effective! Also has a good forum for asking questions and making suggestions. Quickly becoming an extension I use every day.
I have not tried SiteDelta yet so I can't compare.
This is amazingly powerful unit testing framework for unit testing extensions. It could use better getting started documentation, the author primary language is not English so perhaps he should set up a wiki and let others help?
Note to run the sample tests you need to download from SVN, the sample tests are not included in the XPI.
Super useful for development, wish they would just include the Console Filter in the GUI by default and get rid of the old search box. I burned some time trying to do filtering in the old search box before I realized what was wrong (hence just 4 stars for usability).This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.7).
With the instructions from f0rsvinn I was able to make this mostly work. It never occurred to me that the way it works is by creating its own sandbox around the script rather than using Greasemonkey's. There are some GM aspect things that will not work though because the script really isn't in GreaseMonkey. As an example, GM_getValue returns undefined.
Still, it works for basic debugging - and is way better than nothing.
Usage steps are as follows: Install FireBug 1.5.4 (later versions do not seem to work); Install FireBugMonkey; Use the Script Manager in FireBugMonkey to select the files you want to debug; Disable GreaseMonkey (scripts will run inside FireBugMonkey, not GreaseMonkey); Enable FireBugMonkey; Enable scripts in FireBug.
The scripts you added in the ScriptManager should be visible in the FireBug scripts list!
Could you please give us some basic instructions on how to use this? Would love to be able to debug GM scripts...
To create your own collections, you must have a Mozilla Add-ons account.

CORPUS CHRISTI - The normally even-keeled Kevin Palmer is excited. He and Justin Reynolds can't think of a bigger basketball game they have played. Demond Watt called it a must-win contest. And their coach, Texas A&M-Corpus Christi's Perry Clark? He's just trying to keep everyone calm.
But Clark has his hands full trying to temper his team's emotions heading into Saturday night's game. It's a rival. It's a team the Islanders have had little success against of late. It's the first-place team in the Southland Conference. It's A&M-Corpus Christi's last shot to push its way into the league regular-season title conversation.
Must be Sam Houston time.
The Bearkats host the Islanders at 7 p.m. Saturday at Johnson Coliseum. Win, and second-place A&M-Corpus Christi (13-10, 7-2) is right on SHSU's heels. Lose, and the Bearkats (17-5, 9-0) are in an almost unassailable position, three games up on everyone in the Southland, holding all the tiebreakers with six games left to play.
"I'd probably say this is the biggest game," said Reynolds, a forward who is the Islanders' third-leading scorer. "We've had some big games in the preconference, but this game right here determines that, if we win, we're right in it. We lose, and we fall right back into the rest of the pack. We really need this win. We need it as a team and to keep our momentum going."
SHSU has won three in a row and four of the past five in the series. The Bearkats have taken two in a row in Corpus Christi. They won with physical play last season. They won with an efficient, quick-strike transition game this season.
Palmer, a senior transfer, never has bested SHSU. Watt and Reynolds, junior forwards, only beat the Bearkats in the final game of their freshman season, after A&M-Corpus Christi already was eliminated from Southland Tournament contention.
"We can't afford to lose this game," said Watt, who trails only Palmer on the Islanders in scoring. "Hopefully we can go into their building and take one from them like they took one from us. Hopefully this is the year we get them when it counts."
That's what Clark is up against. He wants a cool, calm team taking the floor at Johnson Coliseum. In addition to planning against the Bearkats, he trying to keep his team low key emotionally.
"I'd rather us be calm and efficient than excited and trying to play off emotion," Clark said. "We can't burn ourselves out in practice or on the bus ride up.
"I hope I learned some things from the first game. Hopefully we can transmit that to the team and we can make little adjustments. And, no," he added with a laugh, "I'm not going to tell what they are."
There are some obvious things that need to be done, though. A&M-Corpus Christi opened a large lead early in the first meeting, but strayed from the game plan and was beaten.
SHSU's Josten Crow locked down on Palmer, containing him in the second half of the first meeting. The Bearkats had many open looks in that game. And, SHSU, already a small team, went to a fleet, perimeter-oriented lineup when its big men were in foul trouble. Guards Ashton Mitchell, Corey Allmond and Drae Murray looked quicker on the run than anyone trying to guard them.
That translated to a series of easy layups in transition that broke open a close game.
As for this game, the Bearkats aren't likely to be satisfied because they have a little cushion. The team's 9-0 start is the best in its 23 seasons in the Southland and SHSU will want to ride that start as long as possible.
But, of course, just as the Bearkats have spoiled the Islanders' hopes in the past, there are a few A&M-Corpus Christi players ready to return the favor.
"Yes, yes, yes," Palmer said. "I'm excited. I'm ready to go. This is the big game for us. This is going to be a dogfight."

HARRIS COUNTY, Texas The search for a 26-year-old pregnant woman reportedly last seen Thursday resumed Tuesday in northern Harris County, but her family does not expect to find her alive.
According to officials, Melissa Sowders was last seen by her boyfriend, Jason Sanford, who said that she had dropped him off for work at 6:15 a.m. Sowders was in their white Honda Accord, which deputies found Friday night on Interstate 45 near Richey Road.
Texas Equusearch has been searching the area along Cypress Creek since Saturday. Texas Equusearch would only say they have good reason to be at the location near Interstate 45.
The Harris County Sheriff's Office brought in their dive team later in the day to search the area.
Sanford said Sowders was supposed to go meet her ex-husband and their youngest daughter at the McDonald s on FM 1960 near Kuykendahl Road.
Detectives confirm the ex-husband has been questioned but they have not named him a suspect.
If you can help find, contact the Harris County Sheriff s Office Homicide Unit at (713) 967-5810 or Crime Stoppers at (713) 222-TIPS.

2015-2016 School Calendar Feedback Sought
The Crestview Board of Education has been working to develop the calendar for the 2015-2016 school year. Each year there are several variables that go into determining what the year's calendar will look like. We would welcome your feedback on a couple key areas of the calendar, such as start date, holiday breaks, and calamity make-up days.
Please share your input on these areas with us through this brief survey. The survey will be available through Wednesday, March 11. 2015. Thank you for your support.
As We Begin Ohio's NextGeneration Assessments...
The Ohio NextGeneration Assessments implemented this spring include English and Math tests developed by the PARCC Consortium, of which Ohio is a governing member, and state-developed Science and Social Studies tests.
The PARCC assessments have gained quite of bit of attention in recent weeks, much of it from parents who are concerned about the amount of time and stress the assessments are putting on Ohio's students.
The tests, especially in this first year, have some shortcomings that the district acknowledges, most notably the amount of time associated with these new assessments, and a turnaround timeline for results that will make the data unusable for positively affecting instruction next fall. We see that, and so do many of you.
Our faculty and administration believe that good assessments should ultimately provide good information on student learning that our teachers can fold back into improving instruction for your child and his/her peers. Good assessment is an essential part of good instruction.
There are some positives to these NextGeneration Assessments:
- A great deal of work has gone into improving the quality of test questions students will encounter this year, ensuring that students can apply what they know, not just repeat it back. Crestview has been fortunate to have staff members on both the PARCC and State-level advisory teams who have overseen the quality standards for these test items.
- In future years, student results will be available to schools just a few days after testing concludes - possibly before the end of the school year. This will make state learning measures more useful than they've ever been for schools.
- While we will see an increase in the overall time spent testing, students now have multiple shorter opportunities to demonstrate what they know - test success is no longer limited to one opportunity on a single day of the year.
We are fortunate in our district to have implemented a focus on improved use of technology in day-to-day instruction prior to having it become a necessary consideration for online testing. This has allowed us to focus first on looking at technology as a tool to benefit student learning, rather than allowing test-prep to drive our technology decision-making.
It has been our approach and focus this year, and in years past, to do what's right for kids. We want to offer good instruction because that's what our students deserve, not because it's required for test performance. We want our students to feel confident in their skills and have a balanced perspective on the role of testing in their education.
Increased outside pressures from the legislature continue to compete for our time and focus, but our commitment to students and community remains.
For those families who wrestle with how to best voice your concerns about state testing and the impact it has on instruction, we encourage you to make contact with your state legislators and the state-level board of education to appeal for assessment models that make good, usable measures of student learning the primary focus, and insist that testing for the purpose of accountability always takes a backseat to that student focus.
We thank you for the opportunity to educate your child and the trust you have placed with us to fulfill that role. The changes in this new educational landscape are challenging for us as well, and we are glad to be navigating those changes with a terrific and supportive community around us.

Blizzard Bag Update
January 28, 2015 - Crestview's Make-up Day Plan for school days missed due to poor weather conditions calls for make-up assignments, known as Blizzard Bags, to be assigned for the 7th, 8th, and 9th days of school cancellations.
We've made several adjustments of our process this year in response to the experiences and feedback on last year's assignments.
Blizzard Bags are intended to fill in some of the gap created by missed instruction when school is closed. Blizzard Bags should include relevant tasks which can be completed by the student with some level of independence in most situations. All Blizzard Bags should reflect material in the classes that is either Reinforcement, Enrichment or Extension, or Exploration/Introductory.
More information, deadlines, schedule of make-up days, and online repository of assignments: Blizzard Bag Central.
Crestview Local Calamity Day Update (Rev. 2-27-15)
As of February 27, 2015 Crestview Local Schools has used twelve (12) calamity days due to inclement weather.
As scheduled and approved by the board last spring, our first make up day was on on President's Day, February 16, 2015. Days 7, 8, and 9 are being made up by utilizing Blizzard Bags. Days 10, 11 and 12 are now scheduled to be made up on March 30, 31 and April 1. This is Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of spring break week. Please mark you calendars that school will be IN SESSION on March 30, March 31 and April 1, 2015. All other calamity days will be added at the end of the school year. We will keep you posted as the winter progresses here in February and March.
Ohio's New Learning Standards
While many point at the Federal Government implementing the Common Core Curriculum, it was actually the National Board of Governors that decided to develop a common framework in education to retool the education system in America. The goal of this framework is simply to allow our students to compete in an everchanging global community. Unique to America, we truly educate ALL students. The framework literally changes the way we are educating students to think, and in doing so reformatting how educators are teaching. Crestview Local will continue to strive to provide your student with the best possible educational experience we can offer. We value your partnership in this endeavor.

Australia's prime minister became the victim of a curse last week, when an Aboriginal woman in possum skins pointed a kangaroo bone at him. But these days, putting a curse on someone is as easy as shopping on the Internet.
Modern-day shamans and voodoo doctors are online, alongside psychics and faith healers. But instead of giving you visions of wealth and fame, they promise to inflict sickness and misery on those you hate.
In the contemporary curse market, hexes come with return and exchange policies. Many sites take credit cards, and if you send a lock of hair, they'll build you the perfect voodoo doll.
And if you fear you're the victim of a curse, they'll lift that naughty hex just as fast as you can whip out a credit card.
Of course, if you're rich and famous, you can pay six-figure retainers to your personal shaman, like Michael Jackson reportedly did.
You'd think that having a brother in the White House would be a source of security, but first brother Neil Bush complained through a lawyer last year that his estranged wife, Sharon, was pulling out his hair as part of a plot to cast an evil spell.
I'm not saying there aren't people who deserve to be cursed. It's just that most curses fail to perform as promised in the advertising. Just ask King Tut.
"Death shall come on swift wings to him who disturbs the peace of the king," was supposedly etched on the king's tomb.
Indeed, Lord Carnarvon, who financed the excavation that uncovered Tutankhamen's tomb, died in 1922, just days after he entered the crypt. Thus a legend was born, even though the 56-year-old British earl had been a sickly man.
The gods apparently decided not to punish Howard Carter, Carnarvon's chief archaeologist, who lived another 17 years, passing away at age 65.
In fact, the 26 people directly responsible for the King Tut excavation lived, on average, more than 73 years, according to paranormal investigator James Randi.
"Far from being a curse, it might be lucky to disturb a pharaoh's tomb," Randi says. "These people beat the life span expectation for those days by about a year."
Later studies even showed that the British press, enamored with mummy stories, invented the curse scrawled on Tut's tomb, Randi says. "The headline King Tut's Curse Strikes Again! is just too good to resist."
Now, let's check in on some other celebrated curses:
The Curse of Michael Jackson: The erstwhile "King of Pop" paid $150,000 to levy a curse on Steven Spielberg and 24 other people, according to Vanity Fair. Jackson reportedly hired an African voodoo chief, who sacrificed 42 cows in a special ceremony.
According to the March 11 article last year, Jackson was said to be furious with Spielberg for nixing a deal to star him in Hook, Spielberg's version of Peter Pan.
As part of the ritual, Jackson supposedly underwent a "blood bath." The singer declined to comment on the matter.
The Curse of Neil Bush: Marriage is a curse if it ends in a nasty divorce. Last year, Neil Bush's lawyer accused his estranged wife, Sharon, of pulling out his client's hair to make a voodoo doll.
"It was bizarre," attorney John Spalding told the Houston Chronicle. "She literally pulled his hair and yanked it out of his head. He told me about it."
"She said, 'I put a voodoo curse on you,' " Spalding later elaborated to the New York Daily News.

Full-stack web developer and Python expert
United Kingdom - Last active: 1 month ago - Tests: 6 - Portfolio: 1
I'm a widely-experienced web developer, and a Python expert with around 5 years' experience using the language. (It's by far my favourite programming language for most tasks!) I'm very familiar with Django and have worked on a wide variety of Django-based sites. I'm currently working part-time for VODO (http://vodo.net), a platform for distributing independent media, where I'm heavily involved in developing the front- and back-end of the site. I'm very well-versed in front-end development; I know my HTML5, CSS, JavaScript (and CoffeeScript!) well and can comfortably and efficiently implement designs from scratch and integrate them with backend code. I'm a fast and enthusiastic learner - I'm currently working on learning Haskell and the fundamentals of functional programming, as well as learning some low-level programming. (I'm really interested in trying out Rust soon!) I'm currently studying Mathematics and Physics at Durham University, in the UK. This means I've had lots of experience with LaTeX and scientific Python, as well as being a fluent user of mathematics. I'd love to take on some projects where I can utilise my mathematical experience!

In spite of the fact I have got a degree in International Journalism and Translation, I worked as QA and IT Sales for total of 3 years (from 2008) and then moved to web development from Jan, 2012. I have performed both back-end tasks (from basic CRUD to making simple APIs or server scripts) and front-end (building static websites from scratch or developing views with twitter-bootstrap). I believe the experience is formed with the quality of the projects, you have delivered, and not with the years of sitting in front of the laptop.

Sencha Ext JS 5.1 / Sencha Touch Expert
Thailand - Last active: 1 day ago - Tests: 2 - Portfolio: 4
The last 5 years of my career I have worked with products of Sencha (Sencha Cmd, Sencha Touch 2.3, Sencha Charts, Ext JS 3.4, Ext JS 4.2, Ext JS 5.x). I was fortunate to work with highly diversified range of tasks. The list includes: - upgrades of applications (Ext JS 3.4 -> Ext JS 4.x -> Ext JS 5.0), - mobile application development (Android, iOS, Sencha Touch), - using Sencha Charts, - integration of third-party libraries into Sencha products (OpenLayers, Highcharts, jQuery, Google Maps, Yandex Maps), - code testing in Selenium, Siesta, Sinon, YUI 2, - refactoring, - fully project reimplementation (rewrite a project from scratch, rewrite a project from JS to CoffeeScript), - consultations, - and much more. Javascript is one of the few languages that gives too much room for creativity, a space to express their thoughts. And unfortunately too easy to go far from the correct direction, from the decision to be easy to understand for other developers. That is why I firmly believe in the need to using hard coding standards and official recommendations. It's not important tha you are using for yours projects - PHP, RubyOnRails, C#, Ajax, XML, JSON, bla-bla... I just said you: Yes, I can do it! It's OK! I know well Git, worked with Subversion, used many task trackers: Jira, Redmine, YouTrack, and others, can't remember all.. Also my expirience included development of a mobile apps using Java for Android. If you need in one of the best, you're welcome!

Spring Concert-Lecture on Stravinsky's L'histoire du soldat
Presented by Rockport Music at Shalin Liu Performance Center
March 2, 2014
Featuring Igor Stravinsky's "L'histoire du soldat," Dr. Elizabeth Seitz and Russel Ger with the Boston Conservatory music students will explore the exciting and controversial work by Stravinsky. The libretto relates the parable of a soldier who trades his fiddle to the devil in return for financial gain. Premiered in 1918 in Lausanne, Switzerland, the story is based on a Russian folk tale (The Runaway Soldier and the Devil) and the libretto was written by Swiss writer Charles-Ferdinand Ramuz. The piece is scored for a septet of violin, double bass, clarinet, bassoon, cornet, trombone and percussion with dance and narration.
Elizabeth Seitz received a Ph.D in Musicology from Boston University. She is on the faculty of Boston Conservatory, where she teaches a wide range of undergraduate and graduate courses in musicology. Her specialties are turn-of-the-century German Post-Romanticism and Impressionism. Russell Ger is a native of Australia, and holds degrees from the University of new South Wales and the Boston Conservatory. Active as a conductor in Australia and the United States, Mr. Ger can be found both on the concert stage as well as conducting opera.

Simplesse is an egg and dairy whey protein product used as a fat substitute in low-calorie foods. Originally brought to market in 1988, the manufacturer, CP Kelco (a former NutraSweet subsidiary), sells Simplesse to food processors as a "microparticulated whey protein concentrate" in dry powder form, and recommends that it be labelled as dairy protein on food labels.
The protein is partially coagulated by heat, creating a micro dispersion, in a process known as microparticulation. It is due to the small particule size of the protein that we perceive the dispersion as a fluid with similar creaminess and richness of fat. [1]
Simplesse began in 1979 as "a substance that gelled like egg white but crumbled like Styrofoam."[2] At that time, Shoji Yamamoto, an associate of Norman S. Singer at Canadian beer company John Labatt Ltd. in London, Ontario, brought Singer the whey protein substance.[2] After sensing that it gave the taste texture of cream cheese, another scientist put a sample under a powerful microscope and saw "tiny spheres of protein rolling over each other" about a tenth the size of particles of powdered sugar.[2] It was this particle rolling action that gave a smooth creaminess sensation.[2] Another associate of Singer, scientist Nina Davis, worked for three years with Simplesse (then called microcurd) to adapt it to and incorporate it into many different food products. After Singer's boss observed that the product tasted like cheese cake, Singer filed for and received a United States patent for his efforts with the product.[2][3] Labatt licensed the product to NutraSweet, a subsidiary of Creve Coeur, Missouri, United States chemical conglomerate Monsanto,[4] in 1984.[2] The product was given the trademark "Simplesse" in January 1988.[5] An initial version of the product, approved for use in frozen desserts like low-fat ice cream substitutes by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), was introduced to the public about that same time as being "the first completely natural fat substitute."[4] The FDA approved a second version of the product in 1991 for use in salad dressings, butter, and baked goods.[6]
Simplesse is a protein-based fat substitute derived from egg whites and milk (or whey protein) that allows calorie reductions of up to 80 percent compared with foods that contain fat.[7][4] Describe in a United States patent abstract as "a proteinaceous, water-dispersible, macrocolloid comprising substantially non-aggregated particles of dairy whey protein,"[3] Simplesse particles are so minute that a person's tongue perceives the texture of the substitute as being smooth and creamy.[7] Its texture is due to its ability to form a colloid, similar to the way fat is dispersed in homogenized milk. It differs from other whey protein concentrate mainly by virtue of the principles of food rheology; it is produced by a mechanical, rather than a chemical process. However, when heated such as by frying, the ingredients in the faux fat begin to gel similar to egg whites so the product mostly is used in ice cream, butter, spread cheeses, sour cream and dips, oil-based products such as salad dressings and mayonnaise, and other products that do not involve cooking.[7][4]
Simplesse is used in ice cream, yogurt, cheese spread, salad dressings, margarine, mayonnaise, coffee creamer, soups, and sauces.
However, the brand "Simplesse" is trademarked, hence why it does not appear as such on the labels of food products. According to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), The common name of Simplesse for use in the list of ingredients of a food depends on the form of Simplesse used in the final product. If the Simplesse is made from egg white and milk protein, then the common name must appear in the list of ingredients as "egg and milk protein". The trade name "Simplesse" may appear in brackets following "egg and milk protein". (An earlier suggested common name "microparticulated protein" is no longer required and there is no triggering of nutrition labelling.)
If Simplesse is actually "whey protein concentrate", it may be described as either "whey protein concentrate" or "modified milk ingredient" (section B.01.010 (3) (b) item 7.1, of the Food and Drug Regulations) in the list of ingredients. In either case, the trade name "Simplesse" may appear in brackets following it. (09/MA/90; 20/MR/92; 06/NO/92; MA 25/94.)
Date modified: 2012-09-21
Nutritional fact[edit]
Simplesse is digested as a protein, but due to the micro dispersion formed, it produces only 1.0 to 1.3 Cal/g as opposed to 9.0 Cal/g that produces regular fat. Consuming Simplesse gives the possibility of maintaining the rich texture of the product by avoiding the high calorie intake. Simplesse allows the consumer to feel satiety just as consuming a regular fat.

Michigan History (magazine)
|This article needs more links to other articles to help integrate it into the encyclopedia. (February 2013)
|This article's tone or style may not reflect the encyclopedic tone used on Wikipedia. (March 2010)
Michigan History magazine traces its roots to the Michigan Pioneer and Historical Collections, an annual single-volume publication first published in 1874 by the Michigan Pioneer and Historical Society, now called the Historical Society of Michigan. With publication of Volume 40 in 1916, the Pioneer Collections ceased production. The following year, the Michigan Historical Commission, organized in 1913, and the Michigan Pioneer and Historical Society introduced the journal Michigan History. The Society remained involved with the journal until the Commission and Society parted ways in 1948.
The Michigan Pioneer and Historical Society was reorganized in 1874 as the Historical Society of Michigan established by Michigan territorial governor Lewis Cass and explorer Henry Schoolcraft in 1828 had become inactive. It was renamed the State Historical Society of Michigan in the early twentieth century and, in 1948, returned to the original 1828 moniker of the Historical Society of Michigan.
For sixty years, Michigan History was a traditional academic quarterly publication. In 1978 the journal converted to a popular magazine format and became a bimonthly publication. In 1978, Michigan History had 5,000 subscribers eventually growing to over 25,000 paid subscribers.
In July 2009 Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm issued Executive Order 2009-36 which in part directed that Michigan History magazine be transferred to a non-profit, society or foundation. On October 1, 2009 the magazine moved to the Historical Society of Michigan, a non-governmental non-profit and the same organization that had been involved in producing the publication from its founding through 1948. The Society then established the subsidiary Michigan History Magazine L3C. Former editorial staff did not move with the magazine. New staff was announced in October 2009 and named Patricia Majher Editor. Historical Society of Michigan Executive Director Larry J. Wagenaar serves as the magazine's Publisher.
Every issue tells exciting stories of Michigan people and places, is filled with bold illustrations and colorful photos and highlights history-related books and places to visit.
From 2001-09 Michigan History magazine also published Michigan History for Kids magazine. Michigan History for Kids began as a free publication to all fourth grade students in Michigan (over 180,000). State budget restraints forced it to become a subscription-only magazine in 2004. Lower than expected subscription rates which required the publication to operate at a loss led to termination of the magazine in early 2009. In May 2014 the Historical Society of Michigan announced that Michigan History for Kids would be re-launched with support from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation.
Michigan History is published by the Historical Society of Michigan.[1] The Historical Society of Michigan is dedicated to preserve, protect, interpret and celebrate the rich and diverse history of our state. Michigan History magazine fits squarely into the Society's key mission areas. It also publishes the Chronicle, a forty page magazine for members and cooperates with Central Michigan University in producing and distributing the scholarly Michigan Historical Review. Other publications include the Historic Michigan Travel Guide and the Michigan History Directory.
The Historical Society of Michigan operates several statewide conferences including the State History Conference (fall), Michigan in Perspective: the Local History Conference (March/April), Upper Peninsula History Conference (June), and Mulling Over Michigan for educators (fall/winter). It operates several award and recognition programs including the Centennial Farm Program,[2] Milestone Award Program, State History Awards and Upper Peninsula History Awards. The Society also provides support to local historical organizations statewide.

With elections around the corner, we take a look at the party symbols of the biggest political parties, their meanings and a little bit of the party history.
The Indian National Congress: The Congress party has one of the most recognisable symbols in the country. 'The hand' by the Congress has been praised, revered, mocked and shunned. Congress has seen both good and bad days. The initial symbol of two bullocks and a plough was discarded by Indira Gandhi, when the Congress party was split during the Emergency. Gandhi adopted the symbol of a right hand, with the palm facing front. The fingers of the hand are pressed together. The hand is a connotation for strength, energy and unity. The party speaks of secularism and the hand is a reflection of the same. The symbol is drawn against the backdrop of the Indian tricolor.
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP): The Bharatiya Janata Party follows a right wing, Hindu nationalist agenda. A majority member of the National Democratic Alliance, the BJP is currently vying for the vote of the Hindu majority under prominent leader Narendra Modi. The BJP symbol is the lotus against a saffron and green bi-coloured background. The symbol holds many prominent connotations with respect to Hindu sentiments. The Lotus is the national flower of the country and a symbol of the Hindu Goddess Saraswati, Goddess of Learning. The color Saffron in the backdrop, as represented in the Indian tri-color stands for courage and sacrifice and the color green portrays faith and prosperity. Thus the symbol broadly stand for the growth and prosperity of its electorate.
Samajwadi Party: The Samajwadi Party, one of the few parties formed after the split of major faction Janata Dal; believes in creating a socialist and democratic society. It is a regional political party of India formed in 1992 in Lucknow. Its mass base is primarily in the state of Uttar Pradesh, though it also has considerable presence in states such as Karnataka, Bihar, Uttarakhand and Madhya Pradesh. The party symbol is a bicycle drawn against a background of red and green bi-colored flag. Where as red stand for struggle, green refers to the humble and rooted moralities of the party. The bicycle is again a humble mode of transport, something frequently used by the general masses of the country. Thus the symbol and flag of the party, stands as a direct connotation of the party's principles.
Bahujan Samaj Party: This Dalit national political party started by Kanshi Ram in 1984 chose the elephant as their symbol. Later Mayawati took over as the leader of the party in 1993. The elephant facing left denotes will power and physical strength. The party has this as their symbol in all the states except Asssam and Sikkim, where BSP must choose another symbol. The peaceful animal signifies that the lower class will be empowered to fight against the higher strata of society.
Janata Dal (U): The fifth largest party in the Lok Sabha was founded by Sharad Yadav. The secularist and socialist party has a large mass base in Bihar and Jharkhand.The symbol is an arrow drawn out on the middle white strip of a green and white colored flag. The arrow signifies unity,focus and aim. Widely revered in Indian mythology, the arrow helps the party convey its aims. The symbol is an offshoot of the Samata Party of George Fernandes.
Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam: The Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam is based on ideologies of Periyar, the father of Dravidan ideologies.It is a regional political party with a centre- left political position and political ideologies of Social Democracy, Democratic Socialism and Populism. Its mass base is in the states of Tamil Nadu and Puducherry in India. The Krunanidhi led party is symbolized by 'The Rising Sun' The symbol is a connotation for the rise of the Dravidians in the country, indicating that they rose as the magnificent sun. DMK holds democratic and socialism in high esteem. The aim of the Kazhagam, according to the party documents, is to strive and forge a Dravidian cultural co-operation among the four South states of Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala and Karnataka. Thus the symbol is significant of its goals as well as achievements.
The Communist Party of India (Marxist) : The leading communist party in the country, the CPI(Marxist) has been a constant supporter for the rights of the working class. Formed in the year 1964, the CPI(M), as it is popularly known, split form its parent party the Communist Party of India (CPI), because of change in ideologies. The symbol of the party consists of a sickle and hammer, intersecting each other against a red flag in the background. The red color of the flag signifies the communist color of struggle where as the sickle and hammer signify the agricultural community in the country. As a voice for the worker class, the CPI (Marxist) functions well in tune with the trade unions.
Biju Janata Dal: Founded in December 1997, the Biju Janata Dal or the BJD is a regional political party of India. Having split from the larger faction Janata Dal, the party stands by democracy and liberalism. The election symbol of the Biju Janata Dal, as approved by the Election Commission of India, is the "conch which is turned right". The shankh(as called in Hindi) is synonymous of the ancient Indian tradition. Said to be the emblem of Lord Vishnu, a Hindu deity, the conch is a connotation for prosperity and equality. It also stands for sovereignty and power. The party aims strengthen the well being of its electorate by bringing in new reforms and development.
Shiv Sena: The Hindu nationalist party from Maharashtra has been in the news, not just in the state but also nationally. After the demise of the party patriarch Balasaheb Thackeray in 2012, his son Uddhav Thackeray took over the mantle of running the party. The party symbol of a 'Bow and Arrow' is drawn against the backdrop of the saffron color, a color that denotes Hinduism. The bow and arrow have held an importance in the Hindu traditional epics like Ramayana and Mahabharata. This ancient tool that was used to kill enemies is a revered icon of Hinduism. The symbol thus lives up to its sentiments.
Nationalist Congress Party: When the makers of this party split from the Sonia Gandhi led INC, they adopted the clock as their symbol. The aqua colored clock strikes 10:10. A clock generally denotes timeliness, punctuality, truthfulness(to time) and a fighters spirit. The party tryies hard to emulate the leaders who sought us Independence , thus adopting a symbol which shows their will to work 'round the clock' for the society, seems like a safe bet.
Rashtriya Janata Dal: The party strives on its secularist and socialistic principles. The party was formed by Lalu prasad yadav in the year 1997. The party symbol is a hurricane lamp. The lamp signifies progress, light and enlightenment. The RJD is a progressive, democratic party. It believes it can eradicate the grievances of the masses and usher in some light.
Aam Admi Party (AAP): The party chose the broom as their political symbol and their anti corruption drive has emulated itself on to the party symbol as well. The broom signifies dignity of labour and its a basic tool used to 'clean' spaces. In this case the party aims to 'sweep' corruption away from the system.

Here is the latest update on Forms submissions. We keep whittling away at these outstanding forms. We only need a few more Form 185's and 365's. THANK YOU BROTHERS FOR YOUR EFFORTS!!! 100% SUBMISSION IS THE MISSION! I just got back from a vacation in Hawaii. WOW, are there a lot of Packer fans over there!...just sayin'.
The second Form 1295 Semi-Annual Audit that was due February 15, 2015 is coming in nicely. As soon as the Supreme council reports on which ones they have received I can report to ...Read more...
Councils are steadily reporting numbers. We had two more councils report that I did not know were participating, that makes a total of 61 councils which is the highest participation since our program started in 2011. So far we have 22 councils reporting with a total of $36,845.09. Jack would be proud. Thanks guys!!!!
Get your paperwork into me ASAP so that grant checks can be written at the first Regional Meeting in January. If you need it earlier, please let me know.
I had an interesting idea submitted by 2763 Longview-Cowlitz GK John Schapman and I wanted to share it with you. This will not be for everyone and we don't want to take away from the program's uniqueness of giving away tootsie rolls, but I wanted you to see this for whatever its worth. I certainly would not recommend this in any other month but September and October. Also, you might want to include other organizations that benefit in your area besides Special Olympics.

Bread is okay but it overflowed the pans and made a mess of the oven. I would make it again but in larger pans.
I plan to make it, it sounds great; but what's with the mini loaf pans in all your recipes. They are an OK option, but at least give us the time for baking a full-sized loaf pan, too.
The bread is good but not anything special. The apple taste is minimual, you taste the spice more than anything. The topping makes the bread better than average. I will not make again, as there are better apple reciepes out there.
Excellent recipe, I made it today and put pecans in the mix as well as the topping. Very moist but also tasty, will make this one again.
I substituted a cup of apple sauce for the apples...very moist and did not fall apart..
This bread is delicious but it falls apart not sure how to fix this.
I also added 1 apple chopped into small cubes into the batter.
I made this bread multiple times last fall and have been hunting the recipe in anticipation of fall baking this year. This bread is moist and delicious. My husband said it's the best bread that I make and I make many different recipes. Try it, you won't be disappointed.

Let's talk about fried pickles. The deep fried, crunchy, salty/sour combination has become one of my favorite appetizers. But since it is frowned upon to eat them as a meal, aside from the smell and mess of deep-frying foods, we've create the "Fried" Pickle Cheeseburger. It's the same crunchy, salty, sour combo we all love, but the chips are baked and then placed on top of a juicy cheeseburger!
