Fear factor: Intimidating print, TV ads used in amnesty program

Group interview technique becoming popular at more hiring levels
Job candidates accustomed to preparing for one-on-one interviews with staff and managers may soon find themselves confronted with the "panel interview," especially when the hiring firm is looking for people who work well in a group setting. The group interview is the ultimate stress test and some prospects get no warning before they have to interview with several individuals at the same time, The Wall Street Journal reports, so job seekers should get ready for this type of interview as part of their search preparation.

It was not funny and not what I expected from a woman of her position in the entertainment industry. I closed the book, put it back on the shelf and have not spent another minute on her whether on television or in movies.

Pets of the Week
Jesse is a 5-year-old, blue merle Australian shepherd. He has been neutered and all vaccinations are current. Jesse was rescued from Animal Control, when Clayton County Humane Society staff found him there, nearly dead. After months of intensive treatment and care, Jesse began to improve. He is now a healthy, active dog. However, Jesse has become depressed and sad after his longtime roommate, Brandy, was adopted. Attempts to give him a new friend have failed. Jesse really needs to be in a loving home, where he can be the center of somebody's world. He is an active dog and attempts to "herd" everyone around him, being true to his breed. Jesse is wary of strangers, so potential adopters should be prepared to visit Jesse at the shelter, and begin to build a bond with him before taking him into a new home. When Jesse plays, he plays hard. Because of this, Jesse should not be in a home with small children. For adoption information call the Humane Society at (770) 471-9436.

Apple just showed their new iOS 7 at WWDC, what do you think about the new design? I was really disappointed seeing the new design (looks horrible, like some sort of random rainbow gradient, or just a bad color palette), there we go:
The overall changes are more than welcome, having a new app switcher which is much better, an improved notification center, shortcuts for the so much missing wireless and other connectivity buttons, dynamic icons, but no widgets option on the screen.
I still can't believe that those are official icons.
I'll limit myself to the key point of tonight: MOAR AIRDROP!

Intel Vice-President to Address Corporate Tax Issues at NUI Galway
Monday, 25 August 2008
Intel's senior executive responsible for all government negotiations associated with site selection will address an international conference at NUI Galway on Thursday, 4 September. Nanci Palmintere, who is currently Vice-President of Finance and Enterprise and Director of Global Tax and Trade for Intel Corporation, will visit NUI Galway to deliver the keynote address entitled 'Tax and Business Aspects of Site Selection' at the 17th Annual Tax Research Network (TRN) Conference. The TRN is an interdisciplinary organisation set up to encourage research into all aspects of taxation. Its annual conference, which is being held in Ireland for the first time, will run from 4-5 September at NUI Galway's J.E. Cairnes Graduate School of Business and Public Policy. The event will bring together academics engaged in taxation research, as well as representatives from the accounting professional bodies, tax practitioners, tax executives in industry, the Irish and UK Revenue Authorities. Speaking ahead of the event, conference organiser Dr. Emer Mulligan, Department of Accountancy and Finance, NUI Galway, said: "Corporation tax is an important source of revenue for government and in times of global economic downturn issues surrounding taxation become ever more pertinent. The Irish government has made a guarantee that the 12.5% rate of corporation tax will remain. Consideration must be given however to how best the tax system can encourage economic activity, while funding necessary public services and assisting government in meeting its social objectives." Dr. Mulligan added: "Nanci Palmintere is an internationally recognised expert in taxation and will, I expect, deliver a very rich and thought provoking presentation. She is responsible for a broad range of activities including negotiation with the IRS and foreign tax authorities, tax planning for mergers and acquisitions, and negotiating with governments for tax incentives associated with site selection for Intel." Frank Daly, who heads up the recently formed Commission on Taxation in Ireland, will speak at the conference dinner. Areas being investigated by the Commission include the role of the tax system in encouraging long term savings to meet the needs of retirement, and fiscal measures needed to protect and enhance the environment. Other papers at the conference will cover a range of topics including tax avoidance, dividend tax capitalisation, the impact of a changed capital gains tax regime on dividend policy, procedural justice principles and tax compliance in Ireland, the plant/building distinction, and the impact of education and regulation on the quality of services offered by tax agents.

Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and Multiple Sclerosis Discussed at Neuroscience Confer
Monday, 25 August 2008
The latest neuroscience research into diseases including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and Multiple Sclerosis will be discussed during the 2nd National Meeting of Neuroscience Ireland at NUI Galway. The conference takes place from 28-29 August and will bring together leading neuroscientists, post-doctoral researchers and graduate students from all over Ireland, Britain and Europe. The organisation Neuroscience Ireland was set up to advance research and education in the neurosciences in Ireland. Conference organiser, Dr Karen Doyle, lecturer in the Physiology Department and Head of the Neuroscience Cluster within the National Centre for Biomedical Engineering Science (NCBES) at NUI Galway, commented: "Neuroscience is an emerging discipline of great strength in Ireland. The main themes of this conference are very topical and reflect areas of research strength within NUI Galway, and Ireland as a whole. For example, the first session focuses on the mechanisms of cell death in neurons, which may underpin the development of devastating neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease." Professor Aviva Tolkovski from the University of Cambridge will present a paper on the mechanisms of neurodegeneration. The conference will also look at strategies to promote regeneration of neurons, which may advance the discovery of new therapies for degenerative diseases, enhancing the quality of life for huge numbers of patients and their families. Another session focuses on pain, which affects millions of people world-wide and has major implications to quality of life and economics. Dr Doyle added, "The conference also looks at emerging areas of neuroscience such as that of glial cells, which have been linked with the development of Multiple Sclerosis. Professor David Nutt from the University of Bristol will lead a discussion on the psychopharmacology of psychiatric disorders such as anxiety, depression and schizophrenia and the mind altering effects of drugs. NUI Galway has a long association with the postgraduate training of neuroscientists. Its Neuroscience Graduate School enhances the international profile of neuroscience in NUI Galway. The Neuroscience Ireland conference will provide a focus for global neuroscience research within Irish research institutions. Ends

Societies, Clubs and Volunteering – Student Life at NUI Galway Leads to Fáilte T
Thursday, 14 August 2008
NUI Galway Dramsoc members and friends acted as a wedding party for the recent episode of Fáilte Towers. In the RTÉ reality show, celebrities are running a hotel while raising money for charities of their choice. The 17 members of the Dramsoc team played the roles of bride, groom and wedding guests, descending upon the hotel and its unsuspecting celebrities. According to Riona Hughes, Societies Officer at NUI Galway: "The Dramsoc was delighted to be invited to participate in this charity event. NUI Galway Societies are no strangers to charity fundraising as in the last six years they have raised almost one and a quarter million euro for charity. With over 85 active societies here on campus there is literally something for everyone. As part of a society students can learn new skills, explore their interests, create a community of friends with similar interests and goals and of course have great fun." NUI Galway is also home to around 40 active and vibrant sports clubs. From Archery to Windsurfing, all sporting interests are covered and a brand new sports centre and swimming pool due to open shortly. Another integral part of student life at NUI Galway is volunteering. Over 1300 student volunteers registered with the University's ALIVE volunteering programme at NUI Galway during the last academic year. "Our students contribute significantly to the social fabric here in Galway - whether it's running homework clubs for local schools, fundraising for charities, or befriending people with a disability", says Lorraine Tansey, Student Volunteer Coordinator of ALIVE. To find out more about participating in societies, clubs and volunteering at NUI Galway, new and returning students should remember the following dates: Monday, 22 September, Volunteering Fair (www.nuigalway.ie) Tuesday, 23 September, Clubs Day (www.sports.nuigalway.ie) Wednesday, 24 September, Societies Day (www.socs.nuigalway.ie) -ends-

New Performing Arts Executive Appointed at NUI Galway
Thursday, 14 August 2008
Acadamh na hOllscolaíochta Gaeilge, NUI Galway, is delighted to announce the appointment of actor and director Diarmuid de Faoite as its new performing arts executive. Diarmuid is well known to the general public through his television work with TG4 (Ros na Rún), RTÉ, STV (Scotland) and through his stage work with The Town Hall Theatre, Druid, An Taibhdhearc, The Peacock, Project Arts Centre and his own company, POC productions. The performing arts unit of Acadamh na hOllscolaíochta Gaeilge at NUI Galway runs two part-time courses and one full-time course as well as providing support and teaching services for other departments. The courses include the Diploma in Arts (Acting), a Higher Diploma in Theatre Studies, and the Diploma in Arts (Arrangement and Staging of Traditional Irish Music). De Faoite is a multi-award winning actor, writer and producer and has received many plaudits for his work in the field of theatre, television and performance. Most notably, he received: The Stewart Parker Trust/BBC NI Award for his play about Irish language writer, 'Pádraic Ó Conaire'; ESB Dublin FRINGE Best Production for POC productions' stage adaptation of 'Paris, Texas'; and most recently, Best Feature Documentary with Johnny White (Seanchas Productions) at the Celtic Media Festival 2008, for the documentary, 'Padraic Ó Conaire, An Fear'. De Faoite has taught drama from primary through to third level and on to the professional theatre and television industry for almost twenty years. He was education officer for Na Fánaithe theatre company for a number of years, organising and delivering workshops in Gaeltacht schools as well as national workshops. He worked with Trevor Ó Clochartaigh on 'Lasair', intensive residential theatre workshops in Ireland and Scotland and has provided acting, writing and personal development training for Learning Waves, Solas, Ros na Rún, Pléaráca, NUI Galway as well as various other interest groups and organisations. Diarmuid has provided various forms of performance training for Acadamh na hOllscolaíochta Gaeilge since its foundation, having taught many classes for visiting students, radio drama classes for the Diploma in Radio Skills and drama writing on the Higher Diploma in Drama. Since Diarmuid began performing in 1988 there has been great growth in the performing arts in general but especially in the West of Ireland and in Irish language arts. He sees huge potential for further growth in the areas of research, scripting, theatre in education and personal development. "If we look at drama as an example, said Diarmuid, it is now part of the primary schools' curriculum, and its use in the areas of linguistic development, therapy, the building of self-esteem and confidence, and the vast fields of social analysis is widely recognized. Drama can be communicative, participatory, creative and often transcendent, all in the one instant and, as a creative mirror, is one of the most powerful social tools we possess in our evolutionary arsenal." Diarmuid goes on to say that, "Aonad na dTaibhealaíon (Centre for Performing Arts) wishes to focus on the performing arts in this wider context so that greater opportunities can be made available to our students, not only in the traditional performing arts sectors but also in the academic, therapeutic and corporate sectors". Marianne Ní Chinnéide, the performing arts unit administrator, "Aonad na dTaibhealaíon is in continual contact with professional performing arts companies, Ealaín na Gaeltachta, funding bodies, art therapists and a host of individual musicians, dramatists, designers and performers to ensure that we provide the best possible service in terms of both education and employment opportunities to our students. Diarmuid's appointment further encourages this relationship". Acadamh na hOllscolaíochta Gaeilge is confident that Diarmuid's appointment will provide a major boost to arts and educational development within the University. Further information about any of these courses may be obtained by contacting Diarmuid on 091 869859 email@example.com or Marianne on 091 869103 firstname.lastname@example.com ENDS

An tAisteoir Diarmuid de Faoite Ceaptha ina Fheidhmeannach Dramaíochta ag Acadam
Thursday, 14 August 2008
Tá an t-aisteoir cáiliúil, Diarmuid de Faoite, ceaptha ina fheidhmeannach drámaíochta ag Acadamh na hOllscolaíochta Gaeilge, OÉ Gaillimh. Bhain Diarmuid cáil amach lena pháirt 'Jack' sa sobalchlár Ros na Rún, ar TG4, chomh maith le tréimhsí fada a bheith caite aige le RTÉ, STV (Albain), Amharclann na Cathrach, Gaillimh, Taibhdhearc na Gaillimhe agus lena chomhlacht féin, POC Productions. Go deimhin, shílfeá gur beag comhlacht drámaíochta in Éirinn nár chaith Diarmuid seal ina dteannta agus é ag plé leis an aisteoireacht ghairmiúil ó 1988 i leith. Ag obair as lámh a chéile a bheas Diarmuid de Faoite agus Riarthóir Aonad na dTaibhealaíon, Máire Áine Ní Chinnéide, agus trí chúrsa faoina gcúram: Dioplóma san Aisteoireacht (cúrsa páirtaimseartha bliana); an tArd-Dioplóma sa Drámaíocht (cúrsa iarchéime, páirtaimseartha, thar dhá bhliain); agus an Dioplóma i gCóiriú agus Stáitsiú an Cheoil Thraidisiúnta (cúrsa nua lánaimseartha bliana). Ní mar aisteoir amháin atá cáil bainte amach ag Diarmuid. Mar scríbhneoir, bhuaigh a leaganacha stáitse agus teilifíse de shaol Phádraic Ó Conaire Gradam Stewart Parker/BBC NI, 2001, agus an 'Gnéchlár Faisnéise is Fearr', Féile na Meán Ceilteach, 2008, faoi seach. Anuas air sin, bhuaigh sé an 'Léiriú is Fearr' dá leagan stáitse de 'Paris, Texas' lena chomhlacht POC Productions, ESB Dublin Fringe Fest 2003, chomh maith le Duais Aitheantais an Oireachtais, 2002. Ní haon strainséir é Diarmuid don mhúinteoireacht ach an oiread. Agus é ag feidhmiú mar oifigeach oideachais leis an gcompántas dramaíochta, Na Fánaithe, reáchtáil sé cúrsaí drámaíochta sna bunscoileanna i gConamara agus i Maigh Eo Theas, chomh maith le ceardlanna lae do gach aoisghrúpa ar fud na tíre. Mhúin sé drámaíocht ar na dianchúrsaí aisteoireachta 'Lasair' in Éirinn agus in Albain agus tá ceardlanna drámaíochta agus forbairt phearsanta cumtha agus stiúrtha aige do Learning Waves, Ros na Rún, Solas agus POC, chomh maith le comhlachtaí agus eagraíochtaí eile. Deir Diarmuid go dtaispeánann an fás agus forbairt iontach atá tagtha ar chúrsaí drámaíochta trí Ghaeilge na deiseanna ollmhóra a bhaineann leis na healaíona chun athruithe dearfacha a chur i bhfeidhm sa tsochaí. "Má thógtar an drámaíocht, mar shampla", deir sé, "tuigtear anois a éifeachtaí is atá sí chun forbairt phearsanta, cumas teanga, cumarsáid agus féinmhuinín an duine a fheabhsú." I dtuairim Dhiarmada, "Trasnaíonn an ealaín gach teanga, inscne, aicme agus teideal; ach oiread leis an mbás, tá sí thar a bheith daonlathach!" "Is ar mhórphictiúr forbartha agus fostaíochta atá Aonad na dTaibhealaíon, OÉ Gaillimh, dírithe", a deir Diarmuid. "Úsáidtear eilimintí drámaíochta go rialta anois i gcúrsaí forbartha agus san earnáil chorparáideach chun smaointeoireacht úr a spreagadh. Freisin, tuigtear sa chóras bunscoile tábhacht na drámaíochta mar áis teagaisc agus foghlama agus é ar an gcúrsa léinn anois" a dúirt sé. Deir Máire Áine Ní Chinnéide, Riarthóir Aonad na dTaibhealaíon, OÉ Gaillimh, go mbíonn teagmháil leanúnach ag an aonad le gach ceann de na "comhlachtaí drámaíochta Gaeilge, le hEalaín na Gaeltachta, le féilte agus comhlachtaí léiriúcháin, chomh maith le healaíontóirí agus ceoltóirí aonaracha, lena chinntiú gur cúrsaí den chaighdeán is airde atá á soláthar againn agus deiseanna fostaíochta dá réir. Nasc breise leis an tionscal é ceapachán Dhiarmada". Tá gach dóchas ag Acadamh na hOllscolaíochta Gaeilge gur céim mhór ar son na healaíne agus cúrsaí oideachais tríú leibhéil i gcoitinne é ceapachán Dhiarmada. CRÍOCH

Additional Opportunity at NUI Galway for Entry to Engineering and IT Programmes
Thursday, 14 August 2008
NUI Galway will hold a special examination in Mathematics on Wednesday, 20 August for students who have not achieved the required Leaving Certificate grade in this subject for entry to Undergraduate Engineering and Information Technology Degree Courses. The exam is aimed at students who have already applied for a degree at NUI Galway and have the points but who do not have the maths requirement. Students who pass this examination will be deemed to have satisfied the maths requirement and will then receive an additional CAO offer at Round 2. For more than 20 years, NUI Galway has provided this special entrance examination to help applicants who did not attain the required honours level in their Leaving Certificate. The normal entry requirement to accredited engineering degree programmes requires that students have a C3 or better in higher level maths. Passing the special exam allows students fulfill the requirement for entry to 1st year Engineering. The option of taking the special entrance examination has also been available to students applying for the B.Sc. Degree in Information Technology, which is also an accredited software engineering degree. The minimum entry requirement in maths is either: a C3 in higher level; an A2 in ordinary level; or a pass in the special entrance examination. The exam applies to all Engineering courses except the B.Sc. in Project and Construction Management. Professor Padraic O'Donoghue, Dean of Engineering and Informatics at NUI Galway reminded students: "This exam is in keeping with NUI Galway's policy of providing additional entry opportunities to students. In this instance, students have the points, but may have fallen short on the day in the Leaving Cert maths exam. The special exam provides students with a valuable second opportunity to achieve the mathematics requirement and may be particularly relevant this year with the difficulties in Leaving Certificate mathematics experienced by many students". The standard of the syllabus for the examination is relatively similar to that of the Leaving Certificate higher level but it is focused more on the mathematics that is required for Engineering/IT programmes. The examination will take place in the University on Wednesday 20th August. Further details and application forms may be obtained at http://www.nuigalway.ie/engineering/ or by calling the Admissions Office on 091 492199/492137 The Application form and past papers are available from the College of Engineering and Informatics website at: www.nuigalway.ie Applications will be accepted at the admissions office reception desk up to 9.00am the morning of exam.

NUI Galway Law Student to Perform for New York Mets
Friday, 8 August 2008
On Saturday, 23 August David O'Leary, an NUI Galway Law student will have the honour of singing "The Star Spangled Banner" live on television and before a sell-out crowd of 55,000 people. In one of the last games at Shea Stadium, home of the New York Mets baseball team, the young Irish tenor will sing the American national anthem at the last "Irish Night" before the Mets move to their new home at Citi Field. It is the second time David has had the honour of singing for the New York team, the first having taken place last September, just as he was beginning his LLB at NUI Galway. A graduate of Legal Science and French, the 24 year-old Wexford man is spending his third summer in New York studying voice with internationally renowned vocal coaches and accompanists and, despite his impending conferral with the LLB, intends to pursue a professional career in opera. "It s a huge privilege for me to have the opportunity to perform the American national anthem for the Mets at one of the biggest games of the year. To be a small part of an historic evening will be a humbling experience". David successfully auditioned for the Irish Youth Choir and has been a guest soloist at many performances on radio and television with the NUI Galway Chamber Choir and with the Irish Sopranos. He also sings with the renowned Galway Baroque Singers. ENDS

"Women need optimal amounts of folic acid during conception and early fetal development to reduce the chances of having a baby with neural tube defects," says Wahida Karmally, director of nutrition at the Irving Center for Clinical Research at Columbia University in New York.
Fad diets and unhealthy weight loss programs may also work against the developing baby. "My concern would be when women follow low-carbohydrate diets for weight reduction or management, their diets will be very deficient in several nutrients including folic acid," Karmally says.
Too Much Folic Acid?
Can you take too much folic acid?
"There doesn't appear to be a risk factor associated with high levels of folic acid intake, but we acknowledge that this is an important area for future research," says Honein.
Folic acid is a water-soluble vitamin that has no known toxicity, so any excess vitamin in your system simply leaves your body when you go to the bathroom.
But people over 50 should be careful about taking in high levels of folic acid. The vitamin can have negative effects on people with "pernicious anemia," a type of anemia that occurs mainly within the elderly.

At Home With Reality TV Star Jenny Terrell
The Private Lives of Nashville Wives cast member takes us on a tour of her contemporary Music City "treehouse."
Did you always want to live in a treehouse? What drew you to your home?
Ten years ago, contemporary design and construction was not as easy to find as it is today in Nashville. I wanted something with a West Coast feel and big open spaces, yet I didn't want to build a brand new house in a subdivision where all of the houses were cookie-cutter and piled on top of one another. My Realtor took me to my current home on a whim, even though it had been built in the 1980s, and the interior featured retro decor. (That's being kind!) I immediately had a vision of the space and what it could be, nestled up there in the trees, like some hidden gem, and I started the long process of gutting the interior and "whiting it out" to give it that contemporary feel. And thus the tree house was born!
Tour Jenny Terrell's Nashville "Treehouse"View All 6 Photos
My favorite room in the home is my bar area. It reminds me of the journey of falling in love with my husband, and of the great connection that we have today. It's where we shared our first epic kiss, and it's where we gather every evening that I'm home in Nashville, for our famed "Terrell cocktail hour." We mix crazy fun martinis and talk about everything from our day to our dreams. Everyone knows that hour is "Jenny and JT time."
What are some of your favorite features in the room?
My favorite feature in our home is all the windows! My least favorite feature in our home is all the windows! Fun to have, but a pain to clean.
Did you always want a blackjack table in your home?
This is actually a bone of contention between me and my fabulous designer, Katy Chudacoff of Dovetail Design Works. She would say, "Well, maybe we can set up the downstairs like your casino theme that you really want." And I would say, "What's wrong with doing that up here in the main living area?" And we would giggle and defer the conversation until the next meeting. I finally won the battle on that one! But Katy is thrilled because her only advice was, "If it's not aesthetically pleasing to the eye, it should be functional and something that you get good use and tons of enjoyment out of," and it has definitely served both of those purposes.
What are some must-have essentials in your home?
Well, five years ago I would have said Rombauer Zinfandel and Egyptian linen, but now that I have a young family it's probably Disney Junior DVDs and wet wipes. LOTS of wet wipes!
I had always dreamed of having a beautiful garden, but since our treehouse is built on a very rocky and steep ridge overlooking Radnor Lake, I've had to resort to building an herb garden on one of my decks. I love the scent of fresh mint.
Everything is white in your home – how do you keep it so clean? Do you want to bring in color in the future, or do you love the all-white look?
The answer to the first question is simple: OxiClean! Secondly, we do have splashes of red here and there in our furniture and art pieces, but we really love the simple scheme and tranquility of the white palette. It's like living in a spa.
In the home video, it mentions you and your husband like to play guitars. How many do you play/have?
We have his-and-hers acoustic guitars (my husband is a multi-instrument musician and I was a songwriter at one time), one electric guitar, a bass, keyboard and a PA set up in the basement. My husband's drums, however, are kept at an undisclosed location, far from my 2-year-old's sight!
What are your favorite colors, fabrics, shapes?
I love clean looks and lines. Soft gray and white dominate the interior of our home and my wardrobe. My furniture is all modular and modern, including my gigantic 76-inch circular Italian dining room table from Moda. As far as fabrics go, I love suede.
Where do you like to shop for home-related products?
I am so busy most of the time, I usually order things online. Although Restoration Hardware is nearby, and we never pass up a chance to visit West Elm. I'm also a Container Store addict! The more containers the better!
Your closet looks very organized, yet your husband's looks like it needs some work! Do you plan to redo his closet? Have any tips to share?
Oh, my poor husband! As my shoe collection has grown, his closet space has suffered mightily. Yes, we have an architect drawing up an expansion plan on our loft area that includes JT's very own closet to do with whatever he wishes. I am picturing all of those size 13 shoes stored neatly in a row, which will be heavenly.
What was something special about your home that we see in the series?
I know that JT and I have a very important conversation over dinner on our beautifully lit back deck, during a perfect summer night. Japanese lanterns, floating candles and an impeccable table setting made that night look even more magical than it already was!

UMATILLA COUNTY -- Umatilla County voters will choose between three candidates for Umatilla County sheriff this May, as John Trumbo ends his long tenure at the post.
Trumbo has endorsed Terry Rowan, who has been the undersheriff in Umatilla County for roughly seven years, and has been involved in law enforcement in Umatilla County for 23 years.
Rowan faces Robert Cannon and Alan Humphrey Jr. in the upcoming election. Cannon touts a long career with the Oregon State Police, and has previous experience working for the Umatilla and Morrow County Sheriff's Offices.
Humphrey is currently the chief investigator for the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation, and has worked for the U.S. Department of Defense, Oregon Department of Corrections and the Umatilla County Sheriff's Office.
All three candidates have cited fiscal responsibility and holding criminals accountable as platforms during the campaign. Cannon and Humphrey have both stated they would also require Sheriff's Office administrators to do patrol, jail or other duties as a way to increase coverage in the county.
More information can be found online at the candidates' websites. Terry Rowan's website is www.rowanforsheriff.com. Humphrey's website is www.humphrey4sheriff.com, and Cannon can be found on Facebook at Cannon for Sheriff.

Have you tried specifying a subdirectory in Advanced: "Local subdirectory for repo (optional)"?
This has worked for me.
I can specify one sub directory but I need one for each of the two repositories I'm connecting to.
Use the Multiple SCM plugin. Make sure you set the Advanced setting:"Unique SCM name (optional)".
Ruth Morgenstein, that is not exactly ideal as the multiple SCMs plugin does not support post-commit / post-update triggers.
Furthermore, it just makes sense that the "Local subdirectory for repo" should be a per-repo option, not part of the global git configuration. Even the name of the option is confusing the way it is now and other SCM plugins have the ability to do this without having to resort to the Multiple-SCMs Plugin.
Just wanted to agree with Doug's comment above. Would like to have a subdir option available per-repo.
I just wanted to add that using the multiple-SCM plugin leads to an additional problem: the changes (commits and comments) are displayed only for the GIT repo that is set as first SCM.
With Multiple-SCM plugin you also don't get the GIT_URL and GIT_SHA for all the repos.
Is there already a solution for this without using the multiple-SCM plugin?

| KatieMichelle chapter 1 . 7/28/2012
Really short chapter! Although, I suppose introductions don't necessarily have to be long, some writers just like shorter chapters.
I kinda do, too, so color me hypocritical :p
Either way, I'm really enjoying this so far. Hopefully an update will come soon?
| Anxious Axolotl chapter 1 . 7/28/2012
Your summary really caught my eye and I really liked the dialogue in Keilah's POV (Except maybe tweak the line [ I can't believe I'm stuck here all day in between 'Bad' and 'Worse'. They've been pulling my hair all day long."] so 'all day' isn't there twice).
Simon's POV felt more like a prologue than part of the chapter, because unlike Keilah's POV it had no dialogue at all and was all exposition. It sort of gave the chapter an uneven feel, maybe it could be re-written to be told partially through dialogue like Keilah's?
I was really confused by Keilah's relationship with Melissa and Angela, at first I thought Angel was her mother, and then the line [After the divorce of my parents Melissa stayed with all the kids; Dad was left with nothing.] I thought her mother was Melissa, but then then [ that is why I call her by her name instead of "mom".] proved me wrong.
Very interested to see how Simon and Keilah come together, update soon!

A mega plan formulated for the purpose
Kaup beach to be developed at a cost of
Rs. 55 lakh
Rs. 2-crore plan ready to create facilities
at Jain pilgrim centres
Udupi: Deputy Commissioner V. Ponnuraj said on Saturday that the Government was giving priority to promote tourism in Udupi district.
He was delivering the Republic Day message after unfurling the National Flag at the District Stadium, here.
Mega plan
Mr. Ponnuraj said that a mega plan had been formulated to ensure basic facilities to the tourists. An amount of Rs. 55 lakh had been allotted for creating better facilities on the Kaup beach. An action plan worth Rs. 2 crore for creating facilities at Jain pilgrim centres and promoting the folk events such as "Kamabala" in the district, had been prepared.
A sum of Rs. 83.55 lakh had been provided for the development of the Marvanthe, Malpe and St. Mary's Islands and Rs. 20.2 lakh for maintaining cleanliness on the beaches. Efforts were being made to promote "Guest Home Stay" project to attract more tourists, he said.
In order to convert the Udupi municipal area into Greater Udupi, the main roads of the city were being widened and new contact roads being constructed. A ring-road for the city was being laid. The land acquisition for widening of roads was undertaken. These steps were necessary to cope with the increased number of vehicles in the city. Drains were being constructed to avoid stagnation of water on roads, Mr. Ponnuraj said.
The widening (four-laning) of the Udupi-Manipal Road had been taken up at an estimated cost of Rs. 24.74 crore. Those who had given up their land for widening works had been compensated adequately, he said.

TIRUVARUR: The Minister for Food and Cooperation, Pollachi V. Jayaraman, on Friday inspected the modern rice mill of Tamil Nadu Civil Supplies Corporation here and reviewed its performance.
He told presspersons later that the mill had hulled 13,630 tonnes of paddy during 2004-2005.
From April to August this year, it had hulled 9000 tonnes. He expressed satisfaction over the performance of the mill. He checked quality of the rice hulled.
He said that Chief Minister Jayalalithaa has ordered supply of quality rice to fair price shops. Rice was being supplied in instalments instead of at one go to help the people in fair price shops.
The people could always convey their grievances, if any, regarding the public distribution system to the Collector, District Supply Officer and, if there is a need, to him also either over phone or through letter. The grievances would be redressed immediately.
He asked officials and the Collector to inspect fair price shops periodically and ensure proper supply of ration to the people.
P. Ekambaram, Tiruvarur Collector, R. Kamraj, MP, Srinivasan, Senior Regional Manager, TNCSC, accompanied the Minister during his visit.

Earth Younger Than Previously Thought
Earth could be as much as 70 million years younger than scientists originally believed, according to a new study which claims that it could have taken the planet 100 million years to reach its current size instead of the widely believed 30 million years.
Dr. John Rudge, a research fellow at the University of Cambridge's Trinity College, along with an international team of experts, compared geochemical information originally found in the Earth's mantle and compared it to the same material from meteorites from about the same era.
According to their findings, which were published in Nature Geoscience, accretion–the Earth's developmental process–slowed considerably once the planet reach 60 percent of its present size. As a result, Dr. Rudge and his associates claim that the formation of the Earth took more than three times as long as previously thought, and as a result, the planet as we know it has been in existence for less time than had been once accepted.
"The whole issue hinges on working out how long it took for the core of the Earth to form, which is one of the big unknowns in this area of science," said Dr. Rudge, the co-author of the study, according to the University of Cambridge web site.
As a result of their research, Dr. Rudge and his colleagues believe that Earth is approximately 4.467 billion years old. Previously, scientists believed the planet was 4.537 billion years old.
"One of the problems has been that scientists usually presume Earth's accretion happened at an exponentially decreasing rate," the Cambridge university fellow added. "We believe that the process may not have been that simple and that it could well have been a much more staggered, stop-start affair."
The speed of the accretion is the only issue being tackled by the international team of researchers, who support the longstanding theory that the Earth was originally formed when dozens of smaller planetary bodies (also known as planetary embryos) collided and blended together due to the heat caused by the impact. Some experts believe that the process was completed after a Mars-sized planetary embryo crashed into the forming Earth, causing part of it to break off and form the Moon.
"The collisions caused part of the planet to melt, and allow metal to segregate to the centre of the Earth to form the core," Dr. Rudge told BBC News science reporter Victoria Gill on Monday, adding that during the process, "the planet differentiated into its molten metal core and outer-lying mantle."
According to a Cambridge University press release, Rudge and his team studied isotopes from various elements that would have undergone radioactive decay during the accretion process. Assuming that certain elements had an affinity for the silicate mantle and others were naturally attracted to metal in the center of the Earth, the scientists created several different, new models that showed how the accretion process could have occurred.
"While a wide variety of options emerged, the modeling process showed that the Earth almost certainly could not have formed within 30 million years," the university's Sunday news report claimed. "Instead, the results suggested that the planet initially grew very quickly, reaching two-thirds of its size within about 10 to 40 million years. Accretion then slowed down, however, and took perhaps another 70 million years to complete."
The study, which is entitled, "Broad bounds on Earth's accretion and core formation constrained by geochemical models," was published online May 23.
Also credited as co-author on the study are Thorsten Kleine and Bernard Bourdon. All three researchers are credited as being members of the Institute of Geochemistry and Petrology, ETH Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland, while Kleine is also credited as representing the Institut fr Planetologie, Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Mnster, Mnster, Germany.
In the abstract of their report, Rudge and his associates write the following: "The Earth formed through the accretion of numerous planetary embryos that were already differentiated into a metallic core and silicate mantle. Prevailing models of Earth's formation, constrained by the observed abundances of metal-loving siderophile elements in Earth's mantle, assume full metal–silicate equilibrium, whereby all memory of the planetary embryos' earlier differentiation is lost."
"Using the hafnium–tungsten (Hf""W) and uranium–lead (U""Pb) isotopic dating systems, these models suggest rapid accretion of Earth's main mass within about 10 million years (Myr) of the formation of the Solar System. Accretion terminated about 30 or 100 Myr after formation of the Solar System, owing to a giant impact that formed the Moon. Here we present geochemical models of Earth's accretion that preserve some memory of the embryos' original differentiation."
"These disequilibrium models allow some fraction of the embryos' metallic cores to directly enter the Earth's core, without equilibrating with Earth's mantle," they added. "We show that disequilibrium models are as compatible with the geochemical observations as equilibrium models, yet still provide bounds on Earth's accretion and core formation"¦ Our results indicate that only 36-percent of the Earth's core must have formed in equilibrium with Earth's mantle. This low degree of equilibration is consistent with the siderophile element abundances in Earth's mantle."

TNSTC has increased the charge without permission
Coimbatore: The Coimbatore Consumer Cause has protested against the collection of extra fare in town bus services by the Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation (TNSTC) in the name of air bus, luxury bus and deluxe bus.
In a memorandum to the District Collector and Regional Transport Authority, secretary of Coimbatore Consumer Cause K. Kathirmathiyon said that during the last month, the TNSTC had introduced semi low floor town buses in some of the routes in the city and the buses were termed air bus, luxury bus, semi low floor bus and deluxe bus. There were no norms or definition available for these category of buses.
The minimum fare collected in these buses was Rs. 5 while it was Rs. 2 earlier. This was done without any approval from the competent authority.
Mr. Kathirmathiyon said that new permits were not obtained from the Transport Department and the new buses were only replacement of existing vehicles.
Such replacements were regularly carried out both by TNSTC and private operators as well. These buses were to be operated only as per the permit issued earlier. The TNSTC (operator) was not authorised to alter, change the type, class of operation on its own. As per the permit issued to them, those vehicles were to ply as ordinary town buses and hence operating of these buses in different name and collection of excess fare was illegal.
Fare table
The fare table was not approved by the Transport Department. Non display of approved fare tables was a clear violation of Rule 176 (3) of Tamil Nadu Motor Vehicles Rules 1989.
When a particular bus was 'converted,' those travelled regularly in it were forced to pay excess fare.Mr. Kathirmathiyon wanted to know what type of luxury that passengers could enjoy by standing in these buses.
As per Rule 3 of Tamil Nadu Motor Vehicle Rules there were only two classification of service – Ordinary Service and Express Service.
Since there were no norms/criteria/definition for luxury buses, any bus could be named as 'Luxury' and collect exorbitant fare. Hence the practice of collecting excess fare should be stopped immediately, he said.

Fletcher: Better schools a moral imperative
We will focus on the correlation between education and jobs, between education and the economy, and between education and the quality of our workforce. We will also focus on the programs that are already working in some of our schools, and help expand those programs to schools that might need an extra boost. We will pay special attention to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) programs, and encourage focus on these skills.
My administration will pledge to work closely with teachers, principals, education stakeholders, the community and other government entities to find solutions to move us forward. As mayor, it will be a top priority to join them, to support them, and to build on their success in order to make San Diego's public education system the world's most innovative.
Fletcher represents the 75th District in the California Assembly, covering the San Diego communities of La Jolla, University City, Mira Mesa, Scripps Ranch, Rancho Bernardo and Rancho Peñasquitos, as well as Poway, portions of Escondido, Fairbanks Ranch and Rancho Santa Fe.

I am asking because I always refueled the bike when the reserve indicator started blinking but it would only take 3,8 or 4 U.S gallons max. and that happened at the 320 kilometers-mark from full.
I checked and our S10 have a 6,08 U.S gal tank, which means that I could get around 450 km from a full tank.
Why the reserve comes at 320 around Km??
How long can you drive with the reserve??
According to my maths, the reserve is of about 2 U.S gallons. Is that correct??
The longest I have ridden my bike with the reserve on is for about 40 Km. I havent tried to get more kms for not harming the fuel pump when going dry, but apparently I could get even more before that happens.
I see you are now talking about fuel quality. Well, I had to buy low octane fuel twice and it made the bike runs about 5 degrees hotter.
You've probably got the ghist of reserve range limits by now but thought I chuck my pennethworth in . I have tested the range on my UK S10 to dry on a couple of occasions (both with separate reserve fuel). On long distance reasonable pace riding I got over 60miles on reserve to the 1st stutter, but on local commute traffic it was spot on 50miles and that resulted in an engine cut out. So I'd say if you ride with reasonable care you should make 50miles on reserve but if the road/conditions are arduous figure on less.
