text: The City of Bastrop received the Community Achievement Award from the Louisiana Municipal Association (LMA) Aug. 6, for Outstanding Community Improvement in Community Development for the Historic Bastrop High Housing Project for municipalities with populations of 10,001-25,000.The award was given to the mayor and aldermen during the LMA's 75th Annual Banquet at the Lake Charles Civic Center.The LMA's annual awards program recognizes municipalities for outstanding achievement in basic services, community development and economic development.During Thursday night's Bastrop Mayor and Board of Alderman meeting, Mayor Betty Alford-Olive thanked the City of Bastrop Development Incorporated organization for being the driving force behind the completion of the Historic Bastrop High Housing Project.Mark Rainwater, on the board of directors for the project, said he remembers when the project almost failed."There had been a lot of times in the last 10 or 12 years when the project was all but dead," he said. "I can remember, probably about two and a half years ago, Marc Vereen, Vicki Carpenter and myself met in [the City Hall] conference room on a conference call with [developer] Tom Crumley."Then Rainwater and other board members informed Crumley that they refused to give up."Tom told us that it was over, that he had fought as long and as hard as he intended to fight," he said. "Marc and Vicki and myself talked him out of it."Alford-Olive said she was "pleased to submit" the entry of the housing project for consideration of the award.She thanked Crumley, Bastrop Public Works, Bastrop Main Street and others."Everyone who played a part in making this vision a reality is deserving of recognition," she said. "I want to simply say thank you to all of the hard-working people who believe in the City of Bastrop."

Everybody apparently still loves Lockamy
Savannah-Chatham Public Schools Superintendent Thomas Lockamy received a satisfactory review and another year on his contract, which now extends until June 30, 2013. Although his $192,147 base salary will not go up, his new contract bars the board from lowering it any further. And it's clear the board doesn't want to.

The Savannah-Chatham Public School board members who volunteered to be furloughed as a show of support for faculty and staff are apparently more generous than most.
The Savannah-Chatham Public Schools Board of Education and the Fayette County Board are the only two school boards in Georgia known to have furloughed themselves, according to the Georgia School Boards Association.
Public school boards are responsible for approving cut backs, layoffs and furloughs for school system emlpoyees.

Most of the people who were invited to President Barack Obama's Speech at Savannah Technical College Tuesday were business and political leaders, But a surprising number of average every day folk showed up and somehow managed to get in. Everyone, even the most conservative in the crowd, seemed to be excited about the opportunity to be in the presence of the President of the United States of America.

If you want more power, more speakers, and especially a subwoofer, then yes.
If you only listen to AM radio, talk on blue tooth, then you don't need a subwoofer, then the answer is no.
I'm not quite sure how the normal ones are but I upgraded to the premium and the sound is totally decent for me. The sound is great in my P85 and I don't regret upgrading.
Also if you want XM.
Yep. Dallas is right. That's also why I got the upgraded system. I use XM.
I did't upgrade as I listen to audiobooks, Spa and piano solo music. Did play rock music on it - it's OK surprisingly. But if you care for base, perhaps upgrade should be done. It depends on how much you care vs how much budget constraints that u have.
Love the premium sound in my MS. Definitely worth it. Haven't heard the standard system, but without the sub woofer, I think it would suck.
I have a standard stereo & it is perfectly adequate for me. Since Model S is so fun to drive, I tend to turn off the music & enjoy the drive, to be honest.
Also, you should know that no engine sound = you can hear the music much better.
It comes down to how much you want to spend for extra goodies. I'm a semi-audiophile, but I decided that the standard is good enough... and it is.
If you love music, and own a nice Dolby 5.1 theater sound-system at home, go with the studio-sound system.
Otherwise, if talk-radio is more your thing, and or a you typically listen to music via a small table-top system at home, then the standard-sound system will serve your needs.
I have the Sound Studio in my car and consider it worth the $950 it cost at the time. However I do not consider it worth the $2500 it costs now. Were I to order now it would be with the standard sound system.
I drove a loaner with standard sound again last week for a couple days. I spent a very long time playing around with the sound system this time, comparing it to my car's system and tweaking it for best all around sound on a variety of genres. My source was lossless FLAC via USB.
I have been blessed with a good ear and appreciate distinctions important to audiophiles. IMO the standard sound system sounds best with both bass boost and to a lesser extent treble boost to compensate for its speaker configuration. But it should do a creditable job for most non-audiophiles.
FWIW these are the system settings that I now prefer with the standard sound system. You see a lot of people crank up the equalizer across the entire spectrum of bass, mid and treble but that is not much different than just increasing the volume.
7.5 Bass
0.0 Mid
3.5 Treble
0.0 Fade
0.0 Balance
What is needed with this system on most source material is compensation in the lows and highs relative to the mids. Increasing lows and highs also compensates for the human ear's decreasing sensitivity to highs and lows at lesser volumes which is an added benefit.
If you do this type of compensation with the system's equalizer and are not an audiophile or a titanic volume meister you should be able to save $2500 and be plenty happy with this system.
Love mine but I only paid 950 for upgrade..have not listened to the base system. Best car I have EVER owned!!
We have the upgraded sound system (now called Sound Studio Pkg) in my husbands Sig MS. The sound is terrible from the rear speakers, especially if the Dolby is ON. We turn the Dolby off and it's ok. Yes, the subwoofer puts out more bass.
BUT I just got the regular system for my MS and I'm pleasantly surprised. The sound is really good and I don't miss the XM. I use Slacker and Tunein for my radio selections almost always. I use the bluetooth and my iPhone to listen to audiobooks and podcasts. I'm not disappointed at all with the regular sound.
ddruz - Do you recommend those equalizer settings for the folks (include me) that have the original +$950 system? Thanks for your input.
@Cattledog - For the Sound Studio I use and recommend the following:
Lossless FLAC USB sources (my mainstay)
Dolby ON
+10.0 Bass
+ 0.0 Mid
+ 2.5 Treble
- 7.0 Fade
+ 0.0 Balance
All other lossy sources
Dolby OFF
+8.0 Bass
+0.0 Mid
+2.5 Treble
-7.0 or more Fade
+0.0 Balance
Lossless FLAC sources are improved with Dolby ON. There is a richer bass and a more nuanced, open, breathing sound field. The rear speakers are intentionally not so loud. Their primary function is to provide simulated reflected sound off the walls of the concert hall.
Non-lossless compressed sources (Slacker, streaming Bluetooth, FM, etc.) sound much better with Dolby OFF, however, IMO. The bass is louder though not clearer, the volume is louder, and the sound stage shifts more to the front compared to Dolby ON.
So when switching from FLAC lossless to lossy media I turn Dolby OFF, lower the volume a bit, drop the bass a couple notches and sometimes even move the fade back a bit more.
If I to listen to FLAC lossless with Dolby OFF I use the same settings as for lossy media with Dolby OFF.
When I dropped my car off for service I got a loaner with premium sound.
I was concerned for a while that I made a bad choice going cheap and not getting the upgraded sound since I love driving my MS everywhere.
Good news though....I get an extra storage spot in the trunk for my vacuum (where the sub woofer is) and the music from slacker didn't sound any better to my "untrained" ears.
I'm glad I didn't spend the extra $$$$$
I'm regretting not getting the upgraded sound. AM and FM radio reception is poor, and sound (even adjusting the equalizer) is mediocre. My Prius has much better radio reception and sound quality.
You cannot activate Dolby for internet audio (Slacker, TuneIn) or for HD Radio.
Those who are judging the audio system using sources from Slacker may wish to use different material. Slacker is compressed and so is anything you stream via BlueTooth. Compression takes its biggest chunk out of the low end/bass response, so it's only natural that streamed sources are going to sound anemic on any system.
I used @ddruz's recommended settings for the standard system and it made a huge huge improvement. I had been having regrets that I did not upgrade, but not anymore. I am no audiophile but I am now very very happy with the standard system in my P85.
I would definitely not upgrade for $2,500; for that price you would be better off spending a little more for an after market system like Reus.
@ ddruz - Are you sure about those bass values? I can't turn my bass up more than +3 without it beating like a drug dealer's hoopty. At +8 to +10 on the bass your car must hover! :P
@AmpedRealtor - Absolutely not true. It's only AM*/FM*/XM that you can't turn Dolby on. I use primarily Slacker and Dolby is most definitely on and sounds great. Yes, it's compressed, and yes, and uncompressed source would sound even better.
* and their HD radio equivalents
I just don't see it worth $2,500. I would have been in for $950. I just listen to music on low most of the time. Is there any after market systems?
My only regret about my car is going with the standard sound system.
It's hard to upgrade later cause nobody knows what they're doing aftermarket when it comes to the cars electric system. $950 was definitely worth it. $2500 I'm not sure about (all they added was the subwoofer). But I'd probably still do it.
If the only reason for upgrading to the premium sound is for xm then there is a work around for xm. If you already have an xm subscription for another $3/mo you can get xm via the Internet. Load the xm app to your phone and you can listen to it via Bluetooth in the car. I've already checked it out in my S with the sound upgrade. Since this approached worked we didn't order the sound upgrade for my wife's S. She primarily listens to talk. Delivery in 3 weeks.
Follow up to earlier comment in this thread from @pvetesla: Does the location of the subwoofer with the Ultra High Fidelity Sound package impede capacity that would otherwise be available? Just want to make sure that with the subwoofer, I can still keep my golf clubs in the back without having to make any seat adjustments.
where exactly is the subwoofer located in the trunk? I have the premium sound package but don't see a subwoofer that PVETESLA talked about but I do have an indented space, one on each side of the trunk? Asking because I thought that perhaps Tesla mistakenly left out the premium sound in our - just chenking - love the car anyway the stereo sounds -
Hint: Try volkerize.com for access to many other threads on this topic.
My son is the only one to have used the back seat and he says that the standard sound doesn't reach back there. In the front seat the sound is better than my BMW 540i "Premium" sound was.
There are a couple of threads on the Reus sound upgrade which people rave about. I think it cost about $4000 for East Coasters, which included travel/shipping for the guy coming from California. For myself, I'm no audiophile and I've been happy with the standard sound. My impression is the true audiophiles have been unhappy/underwhelmed with the Sound Studio upgrade.
If I were buying the MS now, I'd get the base system & upgrade to an aftermarket system. I'm on the East Coast & had the Reus System installed. Sig improvement.
@sunrunner - The subwoofer was there before in the old premium sound package too. There is no functional change between the old Sound Studio Package and the new Ultra High Fidelity Sound Package (or whatever they're calling it now).
I listened to both systems before I locked in.. I bought the standard system and I'm totally delighted with it. I have to "smiley up" the 3 band eq a lot.. in order to get decent bass and highs.. and it doesn't blast quite as loud as the premium system.. but for me.. the delta in cost did not anywhere NEAR justify the delta in sound.. I don't care about satellite radio, we have plenty of HD radio stations in Phoenix and the reception has been perfect! no problems whatsoever with the tuner in this car for me. (must be the antenna ground issue being resolved). I stuck a 64GB USB stick in full of my best collection and with that and slacker, etc.. I have PLENTY to listen to! Spend the money on other options.. or just save it to help pay sales tax. :)

I normally write my Thursday blog post on a Wednesday evening – with the TV on in the background, and checking Facebook, my RSS feeds and Twitter intermittently. This won't be happening tonight though – Wednesday has been declared 'Technology Free Night' in our home, which means no TV, no laptops, and no sneaky checking of Facebook on the Blackberry either.
Just as much as we talk about avoiding the email avalanche, I believe it's also important to recognize the technology overload that we face on a daily basis, and just how easy it has become to be addicted to not only checking email, but also instant messages, Facebook, Twitter etc.
What impact is this constant connectivity having on us – and are our electronic devices keeping us apart from the ones that really matter – our family?
My solution is to introduce 'Technology Free Time" into our lifestyle to try and find the balance between the benefits that technology can bring to our lives both professionally and personally, against the element of disconnect and distraction from our family and downtime.
Fear not if at first you are asked by members of your family whether there is an 'app' for this – I have researched some useful tips on how to get started on 'Technolgy free times' that should hopefully help taking the first step.
Would love to hear your feedback or any suggestions you have to make our technology free night a success!
More bytes to crunch on.
Just love this idea! Again, the kids will think we are the weirdo's of the town, but hey, what the heck! Fits in perfectly with our Meat-less Mondays. And, seeing that Wednesdays are cell evening, it makes even more sense.
Also, it is a vital part of slow living, something we want to (want to, because it is difficult to just do it) embrace this year.
Let us know how your technology free evenings go Franco! Ours is still a work in progress, as crazy as it sounds – it's not as easy as it we thought it would be!
Hi Jude, I'm just about to post a very similar blog to your's on the same topic which means it's not just us feeling this way. We have to take back abit of control and prioritise what's more important in life. And I totally agree with you that technology and mediums like Facebook could never take the place of those we love. A balance in all things

Politics, they say, is the art of the possible. But the possible is not fixed. What we believe is possible depends on our knowledge and beliefs about the world. Ideas can change the world, and Green House is about challenging the ideas that have created the world we live in now, and offering positive alternatives.
The problems we face are systemic, and so the changes we need to make are complex and interconnected. Many of the critical analyses and policy prescriptions that will be part of the new paradigm are already out there. Our aim is to communicate them more clearly, and more widely.
On 20 March Green House, together with the Green European Foundation and the Belgian think tank Oikos, is holding a panel debate and public discussion on 'Green growth or de-growth?Alternatives to Austerity in Europe' at Europe House in London. Speakers will include experts from southern, eastern and western Europe talking about the differing challenges being mounted in their countries and regions to the neo-liberal economic medicine still being administered to an increasingly rebellious European population.
The event is hosted by Jean Lambert MEP, and will be followed by a networking reception. You can find out more and register here.
The science is clear: the world is heading for irreversible climate change. It is also evident that the current system of intergovernmental negotiations is failing to deliver the drastic reductions in global emissions of CO2 from fossil fuels needed to avoid this outcome. In a new Green House Gas, John Jopling of the Irish think-tank Feasta argues that the situation calls for non-governmental actors to set up the necessary system of global regulation that governments seemingly cannot deliver. He describes how and why this system would work, including how it would generate funds to contribute to greater international equity, thus making it attractive not only for governments and business interests but for the international social justice movement too. You can download the Gas, and find out more about the CapGlobalCarbon initiative - including how to get involved - on our gases page.
The event in London on 20 March (see above) is part of Green House's 'Post-Growth Project', which has been the main focus of our work over the last two years. Molly Scott Cato has written an article on the project and the resulting book for the Green European Journal: see here.
You can also order this book, and order or download all of our Reports, Responses and Gases, from the Publications pages of this website, or find out who is involved on the Green House People page.

The Boston Post Cane
was the brainchild of Edwin A. Grozier, publisher of the now
defunct Boston Post, a large circulation newspaper.
In 1909 he sent gold-headed canes to the Board of Selectmen
in 700 towns throughout New England. Likely the idea was to
publicize his newspaper. Manufactured by J. F. Fradley Co.,
the canes had a 14-carat head with the inscription,
"Presented by the Boston Post to the oldest citizen of [the
town's name]". The selectmen were asked to present it to the
oldest person in town, as long as they remained there, and
upon death, pass it on to the subsequent oldest person.
Unlike many towns,
Pittsfield retains its original cane. To avoid losing it, in
1999 the select board asked Paul Richardson to make a case
so that it could be properly displayed in the town office.
Six replicas were purchased and are now given to the oldest
person to keep permanently. Bertha Hammen received the first
one in 2003.
Through the years the
cane has been passed along intermittently. There have been
times when it was returned but not given out for several
years. Unfortunately the town does not have a list of the
persons to whom it has been given. Pittsfield Historical
Society Historian Larry Berkson is putting together a list
and would appreciate receiving any information about
recipients. He can be reached at
email@example.com or (603) 798-3984.

HARROGATE, Tenn. — Lady Railsplitter head softball coach Natalie Layden has announced that the second annual LMU Softball Overnight Summer Camp will be held June 9-12 at Dorothy Neely Field on the campus of Lincoln Memorial University.
Beginning on the evening of June 9 and ending mid-day on June 12, the overnight summer camp provides a short but intense introduction to the culture of the LMU softball program. The first day will be reserved primarily for drill work as well as detailed instruction at each individual player's defensive position. Athletes will also be taken through hitting sessions that include the day-to-day work undertaken by the Lady Railsplitters. Hitting sessions include base running training to instill the development of the all-around athlete.
The camp will be dedicated to live-game action on the second and third days as athletes will be able to use those in-game opportunities to showcase their skills and receive immediate feedback.
There are two different options for attending the LMU Overnight Summer Camp. For an overnight camper, a non-refundable $195 deposit is due before registration, while $200 is due either before or on the day of registration ($395 total). For a commuter, it's $325 total with a $125 non-refundable deposit due before registration.
For any and all questions regarding the LMU Softball Overnight Summer Camp, contact Natalie Layden by phone (919-452-9389) or email (email@example.com), or assistant coach Michelle Batts by phone (630-415-8854) or email (firstname.lastname@example.com).

Excess rainfall causes extensive crop damage
Our Bureau
Bangalore, Aug. 8
The Karnataka Government on Tuesday sought a Central assistance of Rs 906.72 crore to undertake restoration works in several districts affected by heavy floods following the monsoon rains.
An all-party delegation led by the Chief Minister, Mr H.D. Kumaraswamy, on Tuesday submitted a memorandum to the Prime Minister, Dr Manmohan Singh, in Delhi.
Heavy damage
According to a preliminary assessment, excess rainfall had caused extensive crop damage, affected infrastructure, roads and caused loss to property and lives in marooned villages.
The coastal districts of Udupi, Uttara Kannada, Dakshina Kannada and Malnad districts of Chikmagalur, Hassan, Shimoga and Kodagu had suffered damage to the extent of Rs 125.8 crore, the memorandum said.
Also, excess rainfall in Maharashtra and heavy inflow from that State resulted in floods in Belgaum, Bagalkot, Bijapur, Raichur and Gulbarga last month. The Almatti Dam gates had to be opened fully to accommodate the release of water from Maharashtra, the memorandum said.
Crops on 80,000 hectares had been damaged while loss of infrastructure had been put at Rs 600 crore
The delegation, comprising the leaders of the ruling coalition of Janata Dal (S) and the Bharatiya Janata Party and the Opposition parties including the Congress (I) also pointed out that the State Government had released Rs 58 crore to take up emergency rescue and relief operations.

I installed a about a 30mm X 6mm bolt with blue Locktite into the front skid plate bolt mounting hole on the frame.
I used the blue locktite as I wanted to be able to get the stud out easy if it broke.
Cut the head off the bolt and install the skid plate. Put a 6mm flat washer and a nylock on the remainder of the bolt, then trim any excess bolt off. File smooth.
If the stud is tightened enough, it should stay on the frame and the nylock will remove easily but still give a secure mount.
If I have a problem with the stud coming loose in the future, I will use Stud and Bearing mount to secure it next time. The reason I did not use it now is because if I break the stud off, it will be tough to get the remainder of the stud out.
I never considered a padlock. To get one that small would make it very insecure. I will probably just carry a 10mm wrench with me and install the skid plate caps with nylocks.
The only other thing I considered was a piece of safety wire between the "wings" of the wing nuts. Drill a small hole in each wing and then run safety wire between them so they will not vibrate loose.
What are you putting in your tool boxes??

On May 18, Harrison County residents will be going to the polls to cast their votes for a vital office within the law enforcement community.
I know all three candidates and am friends with all three as well.
I am supporting Roger Fuller to be our Sheriff and ask you to do the same. Roger began his career as a teenager dispatching for the Cynthiana Police Department and then became a dispatcher for the Kentucky State Police/Dry Ridge until his acceptance to become a State Trooper.
The other day I told a pastor friend about the time God put me in Time Out.
I had gone to speak at a church women's event, and at the time I thought I was the second coming of Beth Moore, a superstar Bible teacher with an almost cult-like following.
I went expecting that, after the event, I'd be hoisted onto people's shoulders and carried through the streets to shouts of "Hooray for Nancy!"

Overview of content related to 'research'
This page provides an overview of 1 article related to 'doi'. Note that filters may be applied to display a sub-set of articles in this category (see FAQs on filtering for usage tips). Select this link to remove all filters.
A digital object identifier (DOI) is a character string used to uniquely identify an electronic document or other object. Metadata about the object is stored in association with the DOI name and this metadata may include a location, such as a URL, where the object can be found. The DOI for a document is permanent, whereas its location and other metadata may change. Referring to an online document by its DOI provides more stable linking than simply referring to it by its URL, because if its URL changes, the publisher need only update the metadata for the DOI to link to the new URL. However, unlike URLs, the DOI system is not open to all comers; only organizations that can meet the contractual obligations of the DOI system and that are willing to pay to become a member of the system can assign DOIs. The DOI system is implemented through a federation of registration agencies coordinated by the International DOI Foundation, which developed and controls the system. The DOI system has been developed and implemented in a range of publishing applications since 2000; by late 2009 approximately 43 million DOI names had been assigned by some 4,000 organizations.

The East Surry girls varsity team beat the formerly undefeated 5-0 undefeated North Stokes Vikings in a conference game at home on Wednesday.
The Cards lost 26-24 in game one and won the second by score of 25-16. At an even 1-1 they lost 25-20 in the third game.
After being down by one game, the Cards mastered a comeback and won victories in the last two games of the five-set match. The Cards won the fourth 25-12, and the fifth 17-15.
Head Coach Caleb Gilley said in the fourth game the Cards played really solid and after kicking up a 15-5 score, continued pushing. In the fourth set everything went their way, said Gilley.
The Cards did not finish the first time North Stokes defeated them. This match they overcame by good passing, and "probably the best defense we've played all year," said Gilley.
In the fifth set, the Vikings took the lead 13-12, but the Cards stayed with it and kept battling until they won it, said Gilley.
The Cards moved to 4-2 in conference and are 10-4 overall.
They play Tuesday at home at Mount Airy in another conference game.
Gilley reported stat leaders in the game against the Vikings: Jessie Barr recorded six digs. Sydney Mosley recorded two kills and 24 digs, Gabi Jessup had five kills, two aces and seven blocks. Cheyenne Kota had eight kills, 11 digs, two aces, three blocks and five assists. Crystal Hicinbothem had 13 kills, 2 aces and three blocks. Olivia Sheets recorded one kill, 13 digs and 41 assists. Finally, Kaci Markle recorded 13 kills, 13 digs, 10 aces and six blocks and Jesse Marion 11 kills and six blocks.
Overall, Gilley said, "They have two middles and a right side that hurt us, They are a scrappy and defensive team. They force you into long plays. For the most part, we won that battle," said Gilley.

Cindy Chupack on Life as a Wife
Monday, January 06, 2014
Cindy Chupack, a writer for the television shows "Sex and the City" and "Modern Family" and sex columnist for O, The Oprah Magazine, discusses her marriage. Her new book The Longest Date: Life as a Wife, is a collection of essays about the comedy and cringe-worthy aspects of matrimony.
Guests:Cindy Chupack
Comments [12]
she is so brave to share her story with us
Wow, from some of these comments, I guess only "good girls and boys"--those who've never gotten drunk, made questionable calls on a hook-up, found themselves in a relationship that ended oddly/badly or ever lived outside of a glass house, listen to the Leonard Lopate Show. Ms. Chupack's journey is her's, and as a writer she can tell anyway she chooses...if you don't like it, don't buy the book or listen to the interview.
come on folks have a sense of humor. yes she reminded me slightly of women I don't like always being around but she's a great story teller, check out her moth story. there's room for everyone's truth without having to be slut shamed etc. it's 2014.
WHAT. the HELL. was THAT?
that was a nightmare. leonard its good to know your show has bad days as well.
She's the LAST person I'd ask for advice from, be it sex, or really, anything.
From what she's saying, her current husband sounds gay as well.
I have to turn this off.
This is the most annoying person that's been on the show in a LONG time. She's like the queen of the Sex and the City girls who helped overrun NYC with cupcake shops.
Does anyone keep secrets anymore? When will she write about her periods and bowel movements??
Oh I slept with him because I go drunk
... YYAAAAWWWWWNNNNNN ... (lip smacking) ... sigh ...
As to be expected; pitiful.

Re: X-MEN: Days Of Future Past (Casting, Rumors, Pics till release)
"First Class" as we got it would not have happened without Bryan Singer's treatment being green lit. Untill that point it was still based on Jeff Parker's "X-Men: First Class" comic. He and Vaughn worked very closely together. They were pretty much in-synch with each other for the entire production of the film. Singer also helped cast the movie IIRC. Vaughn directed the film and put his own stamp on it, but the film was as much Singer's as it was Vaughns. As I've said before, it seems like some fans have forgotten just how much involvement and how important Bryan Singer was to "X-Men: First Class".

As students evolve, so do the systems and tools that shape the way we engage, educate, and inspire them. That's where Next.IU comes in.
This program works to discover what might be next for teaching and learning technologies at Indiana University. The Next.IU evaluations do more than explore the latest trends. They investigate the tools and approaches that best support IU's pursuit of excellence in the classroom and beyond.
If you'd like to suggest a particular system or tool please let us know. We want to find approaches that a variety of people want to try.
Suggesting a system or tool does not mean it will be added to the Next.IU pilots. We will assess approaches that make sense for the university community as a whole.

As we live life, we have to remember to enjoy the moments.
KITCHENER — In another life, long before Bob Egan became the steel guitar player for Blue Rodeo, he was a corporate consultant in Chicago, specializing in employee attitude research.
He made good money as a consultant, and spent much of it on guitars. But when he tried to get those beloved guitars repaired, he was often frustrated.
"I would often leave the shop not knowing when the repair would be ready, what might be wrong or what it would cost me," Egan says. He vowed that some day, he would fix the problem by opening up his own guitar shop, one that focused on customer service.
In the early 1990s, he did just that. He opened Bob's Guitar Service in Chicago. It was a huge success and grew to have five employees and was repairing 100 guitars a week when Egan sold that shop to his employees.
Now, although he is still with Blue Rodeo, he has opened up another Bob's Guitar Service, this in downtown Kitchener in an old factory building next to the VIA train station.
The shop handles any type of guitar, amplifier or electronic music instrument repair. There's also a small room where Egan showcases and sells vintage, boutique and consigned gear instruments in a partnership with Capsule Music in Toronto.
Egan was part of the bands Freakwater and Wilco in the United States before leaving Chicago and moving to Oxford, Miss., where he recorded his first album. In 2000, he moved to Canada to join Blue Rodeo and settled in Kitchener about six years ago.
During Egan's last tour across Canada, fellow musician Wayne Petti of the band Cuff the Duke pulled him into every "cool guitar shop" in whatever community they were in. "That just fired up my passion and when I came back to Kitchener, I thought, I am a big fan of this town ... why don't I just open up a cool guitar store?"
At the moment, Blue Rodeo is taking a break while its frontman, Jim Cuddy, is on tour with the Jim Cuddy Band, so Egan figured it was a good time to launch the business.
Eventually, Egan will be back on the road with Blue Rodeo again, but when he's not in town, the shop will be managed by his guitar technician, Ryan Allen, and his amp technician, Jordie Jackson.
The business has grown, mainly by word of mouth, and now has more than 300 clients. It is also getting work from big music retailers such as St. John's Music.
Egan tries not to trade on his Blue Rodeo fame. "This business really stands on its own," he says. Ultimately, when it comes to guitar service the quality of the work is what matters. "Musicians talk as much as they play, and when they have a good guitar repair, they will let their buddies know," he says. "If you do a poor repair, believe me, it becomes an urban legend."
Although Kitchener is not Chicago, which is known as home for the blues, Egan says this is a good place to locate the shop. "This is a heavy music town," he says. He adds that Kitchener has many skilled craftspeople, such as coppersmiths and people with skills in refinishing guitars. He works in partnership with them to get jobs done.
Egan, who has a masters' degree in industrial organizational psychology, says that although he no longer is a corporate consultant, "I am still fascinated by people and how their work fits into their lives." It also gives him the intuitive understanding that a guitar repair is not just a guitar repair.
"I will ask the person what is going on with the guitar, and often, I will get a story such as, 'Well, this was given to me when I was 16 by my mother, and she just passed away and I would like to do whatever it takes to get it running again,'" Egan says. "Every guitarist has an emotional connection to the guitar."
He envisions Bob's Guitar Service becoming "a hub for all the different guitar-playing constituencies in this region." He hopes it will sell its own lines of products and also host workshops and seminars.
Egan still loves playing with Blue Rodeo. "That is my second family, and especially in this country, with the success the band has achieved, it is really an honour to be part of that," he says.
Bob's Guitar Service is something he enjoys in a different way. "I like being able to put the guitar in its case, knowing it's going to sound great. I get a huge amount of satisfaction delivering that satisfaction to my clients. That's the main thing."

The X player usually goes first followed by the O player. The player who succeeds in placing three respective marks in a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal row will win the round. Win 3 rounds to win the game.
Included in Tic Tac Toe Glow are two new boards which takes this classic game to the next level. Our 5x5 grid requires 4 in a row to win and our 7x7 grid requires 5 in a row. It really adds a new level of fun and excitement! Watch a video over at our website:

It's that time of the year again when the flowers start pushing their leaves right aside the dog poo that's uncovered from under the snow. I've said it before in different videos: leave your studio, it's healthy. One way to still continue the studio-geekery outside is the good ol' pretentious 'field recording'. I have for long recorded all my stuff with Zoom H2 and it has served me well but there are certain issues. Yes it's lightweight and small but the plastic casing is prone to all sorts of handling noises and rumble. Zoom's latest model H6 seems extremely sturdy and I really love the idea of interchangeable mics so I just had to give it a go. With a little help of the friendly people at Studiotec I got my hands on a unit and decided to throw in a little challenge. I wanted to go out and record all sorts of random stuff and build a track completely made out of those sounds, which I did. I recorded all sorts of stuff ranging from ambiences to drumming and kicking various items in- and outdoors such as construction equipment, monuments, buildings, people and animals (no not really). My intention was not to record any kinds of instruments whatsoever but the end bit needed something so I just had to add a little Otamatone solo in there. Then again it's freakin' Otamatone of all instruments so I can live with that. I'm also challenging you to play that lil' bugger with a fractured wrist and a cast. It adds a little pain and agony in the delicate emotional interpretation of the solo. At least by keeping it painfully out of tune.
Anyway, the final result ended up using quite a hefty bass drone recorded from inside of Sibelius Monument, which is.. well.. a monument (duh) in Helsinki built from large welded steel pipes. When a wind blows past the monument, the pipes make these weird droney sounds which have pretty impressive bass content. I definitely recommend sticking your head in there if you happen to walk past. You look really smart and you're up for an interesting sonic experience. A satellite dish and an empty cargo container provided a nice bit of oomph and boom to the beats and the rest is various small and big stuff you can spot from the video. Yes, effects are used on the sounds (I think it's pretty obvious listening to it) as I didn't want to do a boring engineery test but to have fun and try out what I can do with the sounds I get. You can get the specs and the unboxing videos elsewhere, this is not for it.
Verdict on the recorder itself? It's an absolutely gorgeous piece of gear. Compared to the H2 it completely removes the issue of handling noise as it's built like a tank. A very small tank that is. The noise level is considerably lower and the details and dynamics are on a completely new level to what I'm used to with the H2. The interchangeable mics extend the use quite a bit as you have an M/S mic to capture spaces and ambience, good X/Y with width control and a shotgun to get quite surgical with if needed so the palette to work with is really versatile. The downside compared to for example H2 is that the unit is larger so it's not the kind of recorder you slip in your pocket. I rarely do carry a recorder randomly with me so it's not a big issue but for example a unit without the additional four inputs would be a killer. I'm not sure if I'm to use those too often. But what I do use is the option to plug the unit on a USB and record directly into DAW. Saves a lot of hassle.
All in all, I'm quite excited to head outside and keep recording with the H6. Listen to the track and judge for yourself.

News and notes on the restaurant scene from dining critic Carol Deptolla
Trocadero to open a second-floor lounge, Red Star
Trocadero, 1758 N. Water St., is diving into craft and classic cocktail culture with a revamped second-floor lounge, Red Star, opening Nov. 21.
The lounge will be in previews Thursday through Saturday this week; guests are asked to RSVP to attend.
Trocadero has used the second floor for private parties the past five years or so; before that, it was a bar called RedLight.
Chad Ellingboe, Trocadero's general manager, said the restaurant changed its focus to craft and classic cocktails in October, and has been making bitters, infusions, syrups and shrubs. Red Star will showcase its own menu of 20 or so cocktails, mostly different from the restaurant's, he said.
Red Star will open at 8 p.m. Thursdays through Sundays; the entrance is on Pearson St., separate from the restaurant.
Because the number of seats is relatively small -- about 60 -- and because the staff wants to minimize crowding, Red Star will have a doorman and also will take reservations, though reservations won't be required. "It's not something you see a lot of in Milwaukee unless you have bottle service," Ellingboe said, but he and Trocadero bar manager Drew Cyr encountered it on a recent trip to New York, at spots like the Experimental Cocktail Club.
"We don't want to pack the place," he said. "That takes away from the cocktail-club aspect."
Red Star is still finishing up its new decor -- light fixtures and curtains are on the way -- but the look is dark, with chocolate-brown walls, metallic touches and pops of color, like the couches in gold, turquoise and cream.
While the focus is cocktails (priced from $8 to $10), the bar will have seven taps ($5) for Wisconsin craft and imported beers, with another 20 beers by the bottle, and a small wine list.

Why does Microsoft not offer SMS activation in the United States (the home country of the company and founder)? Why even bother putting SMS activation if they don't have it? I looked through a few countries by random and found that the ones I clicked didn't have SMS activation. Maybe some of you elsewhere are lucky enough to have it, because I hate that phone system (Windows 7 re-installed a dozen times, can't activate anywhere but on the phone).
Is there any "official" answer, because Google has proved fruitless.

Yes, and the J/80s are now turning 20 years old. When I crewed on an Olson 30 in the Bay in PHRF A2 in the early to mid-90s, we were sailing against some 35-40 footers that were difficult to beat unless conditions allowed us to plane downwind. CBYRA formed a new "sportboat" class for the ultralight and A-sym boats; I am not sure whether it ever caught on.
So what has happened in the last 20 years, other than the prices of new production boats have increased exponentially while performance has not really improved?
