RRPC to map water quality and culvertsBy Lucia Suarez
STAFF WRITER | February 20,2013The Rutland Regional Planning Commission will begin mapping out water quality and culvert assessments across 15 towns in western Rutland and Bennington counties next month.
The project is part of an ongoing effort to improve water quality in the region and will focus on the Poultney/Mettawee River Basin and the Lower Lake Champlain Direct Basin.
Steve Schild, geographic information system (GIS) manager for RRPC, said the commission will start collecting data in the first week of March, though it will probably wait until snow melts before sending people into the field. Work will continue through the summer and the findings will be presented in August or September.
Its a data-collection process, he said. We are going through the data and will pull the really bad culverts. We will then help towns seek grants so they are repaired.
Schild said they will work with road foremen from the towns to identify culverts near the watershed basins and determine which are worse for wear.
They know about the culverts better than anyone, he said. There is a need for this kind of data.
The team will use a GIS to map environmental data including wetlands, saturated soils, flood zones, erosion hazard zones, drinking water wells, water quality and past restoration projects.
It will be a quick inventory of water features, Schild said.
They will also use a hand-held global positioning system (GPS) that, according to Schild, will allow for very accurate coordinates and maps.
Once the data is collected, it will be sent to the state Agency of Transportation for its records. The data will also be integrated into town plans and the countys regional plan.
The bottom line is this will be good help in trying plans together in the county, Schild said.
The project is funded by a federal Clean Water Act grant and administered by the state Department Environmental Conservation. Schild said the state will use the grant for different projects every year.

All the pictures and action from a weekend at the "Rally of 10,000 Corners"...
Posted: 28 May 2013
If you've not guessed already, we've been at the Corsican round of the European Rally Championship this weekend, following the stellar field of LMP1 drivers, former F1 stars, and rallying heroes.
And the perilous rally of 10,000 curves didn't fail to deliver. Won by Bryan Bouffier driving his 2017 Super 2000 car, who shocked the rallying world with a surprise win at Monte Carlo in 2011, it was also Peugeot's first international rally title since Thierry Neuville won in 2011 at Sanremo.
It was a close fought battle between Bouffier and ERC leader, Jan Kopecky, who's driving for Skoda. Just before midday service, the FabiaS2000 had established a healthy lead over Bouffier who'd been dominating the previous day. But Kopecky's car suffered engine woes on the last stage, leaving no choice but to limp to the finish line – and second place - on three cylinders.
Another hopeful for a Championship win was Craig Breen in his Sainteloc Peugeot, who'd set the pace early in the rally. But a puncture put paid to his efforts, and he was left to fight with Toyota Le Mans driver, Stephane Sarrazin, for third place.
Sarrazin's Mini had form at the rally – it was the very car that won in 2012, and the Frenchman was able to jostle Breen off the podium and take third.
Ex-F1 star, Robert Kubica (read our exclusive chat with Top Gear Man of the Year 2012 here), was forced to retire after a fueling problem in his Citroen DS3.

Here are the final results:

Hi, thanks for looking!
Back from assorted maladies and misfortunes and looking to trade some figures!
I've decided to move on from DCUC completionism and try to cobble together some CO Doctor Who and NECA Aliens & Predator figures. Ideally it would be nice to track down the harder to find Who stuff (Vespiform, River Song, etc.) before I start filling in the holes with the more common pieces. Loose is fine, but I'm a big stickler for quality paint jobs, so if you could send a picture of the fig, I would love to see it. Also looking for a few other random things from a few other random lines.
First, my...
$ -- check, money order, paypal (but I can't accept CC payments; bank transfers or pp funds are fine.)
Looking for (mostly) X-stuff. Only have W:O Cyclops, Juggernaut, Prof. X, and the SD/TRU X-Factor pack atm. If you've got any, let me know. Carded is great, loose and complete is fine.
Cyclops (Jim Lee costume)
Jean Grey (Lee costume)
Storm (mohawk, from Nightcrawler Secret Wars pack)
X-Force 3-pack (Wolvie, Warpath, Deadpool)
Guardian and Puck (sort of X-Men related sort of)
Cyclops/Marvel Girl First Class 2pk
Dark Phoenix (from 2pk w/ Cyclops, only need Jean)
Havok (either/both versions)
Magneto from Secret Wars 2pk
Any comic Sabretooth
And any Future Force stuff (3-pack, Doom-Spidey 2pk, single-carded white Spidey)
If you've got other X-stuff I haven't listed, do please let me know.
NECA Alien(s) & Predator(s)
Predator wave 7 City Hunter masked (carded)
Wave 8 Jungle Hunter (carded)
I can't pick which Dutch(es) I want :P
Any single carded Prometheus (lesser wants)
Lots of stuff CO's line. Priorities are:
RC Dalek Battle Pack w/ Cyber Leader
Vespiform (whole preferred, but pieces will do)
Dalek w/ Mutant Reveal (version w/ blue "eye" painted in only)
Slitheen skinsuit (just the suit, but I guess I'll take the Slitheen, too)
Regeneration 10th Doctor in 9th's jacket (with added upper arm articulation)
Toby Zed (un-possessed, "clean" figure)
Voc Robots (both carded "red eyes" and "normal eyes" from the 4th Doc Adv Set)
... and most anything from the "NuWHo" line. I don't have much, and aren't exactly looking for much, but if you've got some cheap figures you're looking to move, let me know.
Guardian from Alpha Flight (can be loose; not a top priority)
Guardian from Alpha Flight. Carded preferred but not essential.

The Columbia Journal of Tax Law provides scholars, practitioners and policy makers a forum for pioneering ideas in tax law and policy. Founded in 2009, the Journal fortifies Columbia?s distinction in a field of law that is both uniquely dynamic and significant to the pressing social and economic issues of our time.
The Journal is a World Wide Web-based, solely online journal that publishes two issues yearly. It features scholarly articles, shorter works on current policy topics and student notes. While staff members are not required to write a note, students are encouraged to have a voice in the tax debate and will receive full editorial support throughout the drafting process.
Journal staff members are selected on the basis of interest, entrepreneurship, and writing ability as demonstrated in a personal statement, resume, and legal writing sample. Students may submit these materials either through the Journal?s independent application process or in conjunction with the 1L Writing Competition.
The Columbia Journal of Tax Law encourages applicants of diverse talents, interests and aspirations and does not require prior experience in tax law or a related discipline. The Editorial Board will provide substantive guidance to staff members whenever necessary. However, students who join the Journal should complete the course Federal Income Taxation during the 2L year, preferably in the fall semester.

Depending on your Apache access log configuration you may have to change the sum+=$11 to previous or next awk token.
Beware, usually in access log last token is time of response in microseconds, penultimate token is size of response in bytes. You may use this command line to calculate sum and average of responses sizes.
You can also refine the egrep regexp to match specific HTTP requests.
That's the easiest way to do it. -I (or capital i) display all network addresses of a host
gives u each configured IP in a seperate line.
cut -f1,2 - IP range 16
cut -f1,2,3 - IP range 24
cut -f1,2,3,4 - IP range 24
This command allows you to revert every modified file one-by-one in a while loop, but also after "echo $file;" you can do any sort of processing you might want to add before the revert happens.
Will split the std input lines into files grouped by the 5th column content.
If your locale has Monday as the first day of the week, like mine in the UK, change the two $7 into $6
This was done in csh.
This is a little trickier than finding the last Sunday, because you know the last Sunday is in the first position of the last line. The trick is to use the NF less than or equal to 7 so it picks up all the lines then grep out any empty lines.
Simpler and without all of the coloring gimmicks. This just returns a list of branches with the most recent first. This should be useful for cleaning your remotes.
Like the original version except it does not include the parent apache process or the grep process and adds "sudo" so it can be run by user.
Prints top 5 twitter topics. Not very well written at all but none of the others worked.
Improvement on Coderjoe's Solution. Gets rid of grep and cut (and implements them in awk) and specifies some different mplayer options that speed things up a bit.
This will save parsing time for operations on very big files.
Convert readable date/time with `date` command
Not figured by me, but a colleague of mine.
See the total amount of data on an AIX machine.
It remove the square bracket and convert UNIX time to human readable time for all line of a stream (or file).
Kill all process that concide whit PATTERN
You can use only awk
This command does a basic find with size. It also improves the printout given (more clearer then default)
Adjusting the ./ will alter the path.
Adjusting the "-size +100000k" will specify the size to search for.
This command displays the CPU idle + used time using stats from /proc/stat.
This will extract the differing CSS entries of two files. I've left the initial character (plus or space) in output to show the real differing line, remove the initial character to get a working CSS file. The output CSS file is usable by either adding it in a below the to original.css, or by only using the output but adding @import url("original.css"); in the beginning.
This is very useful for converting Wordpress theme copies into real Wordpress child themes.
Could exclude common lines within entries too, I guess, but that might not be worth the complexity.
Tested in bash on AIX & Linux, used for WAS versions 6.0 & up. Sorts by node name.
Useful when you have vertically-stacked instances of WAS/Portal. Cuts out all the classpath/optional parameter clutter that makes a simple "ps -ef | grep java" so difficult to sort through.

Drama, SciFi/Fantasy
"Ondine" is the enchanting story of Syracuse, a lonely fisherman who one day pulls a beautiful woman named Ondine out of the sea in his nets. His young daughter Annie is convinced that she is a "selkie" -- a creature from Irish folklore much like a mermaid. Syracuse has his doubts, but as Ondine brings some luck and joy to his otherwise downcast life, he starts to come around as well. "Ondine" deftly blends romance and fantasy with the realism of modern life in an Irish seaside town.
Rated PG-13 for some violence, sensuality and brief strong language.

A polite request from LEGO
1. It is LEGO, not Lego. All caps. All the time.
2. It is not Mindstorm (singular) or Mindstorms (plural)... it is MINDSTORMS. All caps. All the time.
3. It is not MindStorm or MindStorms... again, MINDSTORMS. All caps. All the time.
4. It is not Rcx or Nxt or rcx or nxt. It is RCX and NXT. All caps. All the time.
Now, LEGO, that said... I will NOT correct, edit, and/or delete posts and comments that use them incorrectly... I don't have the time and, quite honestly, people type fast (myself included) and frequently these little errors are going to pop up... sorry. But for the record, I have now posted a "general use" policy and have done my little part to try and educate our readers. You're welcome ;)

I understand LEGO's concern with trademarks and names, and will be happy to comply by spelling LEGO, NXT and MINDSTORMS with all caps, all the time.
However, while trademarks on boxes look great in all caps, using all caps in compositions can give readers the feeling that you are SHOUTING AT THEM. :-)
What looks good on a box doesn't necessarily translate to the written page, particularly if it's a casual post.
Just my two centavos.
- Jun 8, 2007, 6:31:00 AM
How do they know we are referring to their product? Maybe I just misspelt next, and I want my daughter to let go of my LEGO. Having a tough time coming up with one for rcx (note correct spelling and capitalization because it is not being used to refer to a MINDSTORMS RCX).
C'mon LEGO, you remind me of that old Carly Simon song. Your so vain you probably think this blog is about you.

I'm in total agreement... I don't mind LEGO, but MINDSTORMS combined with LEGO does seem like yelling... so I may still use LEGO Mindstorms here and there ;)
- Jun 8, 2007, 6:52:00 AM
Huh, I just noticed that uppercase MINDSTORMS thing. It makes no sense! It's not an abbreviation for anything (is it?). Also their logo is a mixture of uppercase and lowercase letters, so perhaps they should send themselves a polite request. :-)
- Jun 8, 2007, 7:55:00 AM
If you haven't heard yet the LEGO message boards now switch Lego or lego to LEGO.
- Jun 8, 2007, 8:01:00 AM

I totally understand this... they're trying to make sure their brand is protected and not mis-used... if companies don't do this or don't enforce it, courts have been known to side with opposing sides when it comes time for rulings on misuse and/or infringement issues... LEGO is just trying to apply some control and I can respect that.
- Jun 8, 2007, 8:16:00 AM
Their request can be logical and reasonable, but we can still poke fun at them for making it.
- Jun 8, 2007, 8:43:00 AM
- Kirk Backstrom said...
Good point. It is also interesting that the Official MINDSTORMS website has other examples of MINDSTORMS spelled Mindstorms on their main page (check the buttons on the right hand side and the flash animation).
But the main point is that we should try to spell MINDSTORMS in all caps most of the time, and a few Mindstorms slip-ups doesn't really matter.

I understand why Lego - er, LEGO - wants us to type things that way. And I could care less that they made that clear... but I'm really not going to go out of my way to type differently. I could care less how others type, and I really don't think it is terribly important how I type.

Well, Maniac... that's your choice. But writing clearly is a skill that employers value, so you might want to reconsider ;)
As someone who writes for a living (and does make mistakes), proper grammar is an absolute requirement. This includes using proper spelling of corporate names and products. On the blog I can probably let it slide a bit, but I try not to do this...
Also - it's "couldn't care less" instead of "could care less." The former implies you really cannot care anymore and the latter implies that there is a little bit more indifference you could show. I think you mean the former in that you "really couldn't care less what LEGO thinks" - and that's too bad, because LEGO does read these comments and probably DOES at least care what you think.

One thing....
"MindStorms" has usually been accepted by those "In Charge".
This goes back to the 1997-1998 start of the Official MINDSTORMS forums.
Maybe someone from LEGO should send me an email as well.
- Jun 8, 2007, 9:49:00 AM
Just remember lego didn't come up with the word Mindstorms in the first place. It was named after Seymour Papert's seminal book 'Mindstorms: Children, Computers and Powerful Ideas'. Notice not in all caps ;-p

Jim, no good deed ever goes unpunished!
You did your part and provided the information and that's all you can do. If some choose to intentionally take jabs at LEGO, let them. They show their true colors and lose the respect of those of us in the community who try and do the right thing.

I know there reasons, and I agree with them. Its not terribly wrong to make a joke or two at it.
It just feels awkward to know everything you write may be read by LEGO. <--- see! I had to retype that to upper case!
anyways.... yes master, whatever you say
Oh well, I will keep this in mind while writing in the future.

Myles and others.
I think my original post has been misinterpreted. I don't see them being upset with comments that have Mindstorms or Lego... they're human to and type just like the rest of us... it'll get old real quick trying to police everything we write.
I think what LEGO is asking is for those of us in the publishing world - books, blogs, etc - to try and be more consistent with how we use their name. As an example, take a look at the header on our blog - I modified it today to correct these mistakes that I, too, made when creating this blog. They just asked us to be more aware and we are happy to do so...
If you're writing a comment or email and write Lego or MiNdStOrMs, you're not going to get sued (I hope) or tracked down - but those of us who create material that references the company and its products have been asked, rather politely, to just try and be more careful.
So... everyone... lighten up a bit. The post was just my silly way of letting LEGO know that I'm on board (because yes, they do check in on our blog)... I didn't mean to stir up a storm.
And thanks, Dale... that statement you made popped in my mind earlier ;)
- Jun 8, 2007, 10:59:00 AM
While it's understandable why LEGO is asking for this, standard AP Style encourages the use of lowercase after the first capital letter. The Wikipedia Manual of Style leverages this in their guidelines:
"Follow standard English text formatting and capitalization rules even if the trademark owner encourages special treatment:
avoid: REALTOR®
instead, use: Realtor"

Um, no offense here, but... why don't we all get back to playing with the toys we have, instead of worrying about the stylistic, legal, and grammatical aspects :-) ?

Saving me time!9/25/2012 11:12pm
For months I was using some hand written music that only had the melody line and some chords written on it. Actually, I didnt use it because I cant play music like that. I made sure this song wasnt chosen on the weeks I was rostered on at church. NOW I have "proper" piano music and can whenever they choose it. Thank you!

For one week last fall, Barry Walz navigated the rivers and streams of the Canadian wilderness, with only his dog, his canoe and his paddle for company.
"It was a bit lonely at times, I found myself talking to myself—but I didn't answer," he joked about his first solo canoe trip.
Not only did Mr. Walz manage the trip on his own, it was also entirely self-supported: He built his canoe and paddle by hand.
A master craftsman on the East End for nearly 30 years, Mr. Walz will teach a paddle-building workshop this spring at his East Hampton shop in conjunction with Surfrider Foundation.
"Barry has many years' experience building beautiful and functional paddles and canoes, and is an excellent teacher," said event organizer Mike Bottini, chair of the Eastern Long Island Chapter of Surfrider Foundation.
After coming to Shelter Island in 1985 to remodel the house of his brother, internationally known designer Kevin Walz, Mr. Walz decided to stay, making a name for himself on Shelter Island first in general construction. Later, after finding himself happiest doing detail work, he began to focus primarily on cabinetry and custom furniture. He moved Walz Woodworks to East Hampton in 2013.
The Walz brothers share two lines of furniture, as well as a patent for a technology that enables them to build graceful, lightweight, but very strong, furniture.
"It's just a way to put things together so it can be very, very light, but very, very strong," explained Mr. Walz. "We made a chair that weighs about two pounds—pretty cool."
"I like being able to put things together so they fit well and they make sense to me," continued Mr. Walz. "When you build cabinets or furniture, you have to be able to see things in three dimensions, so as they go together, you kind of anticipate certain joinery. I just like the way things fit. It's like putting a jigsaw puzzle together, but you're actually creating the pieces."
After seeing Mr. Walz's work, Mr. Bottini decided to pursue a collaboration between the craftsman and Surfrider Foundation, coming up with the idea for a paddle workshop. Participants in the workshop will be able to choose between canoe, kayak, and stand-up paddleboard paddle designs. Mr. Walz, who will guide each participant through the entire process of constructing their custom-made paddle, will provide all materials.
An avid adventurer, Mr. Walz started building paddles in the late 1980s for his own use. "I was doing research, development so to speak," he said. "I would take them down the rivers and say, 'Oh this works' or 'This doesn't work.'" He sent his paddles to experts to have them critiqued and took lessons to fine tune his craft, all the while using friends and his own wilderness canoe trips to test out his creations on the water.
"The first thing is function and then the next thing is the beauty of it," he said. "Wood is a gorgeous way to build things. It talks to me, I guess, a little bit. That's where you get a choice—to have it talk to the individual that's designing it. Whether it's the blade design or the key grip, it's all custom; it's all shaped to the individual hand and the person, so, really, the individual's going to get a completely custom paddle that they like and talks to them."
"There is a bit of a science and there's a balance in everything," he added. "Some people are talented in one way and you lean toward that and other people are the opposite. But there's a science and that's half the fun of it all—the functionality and the beauty of it all—being able to put something together and make it very functional and beautiful."
People have been calling Mr. Walz's work "functional art," he said, but the craftsman is always focused on function first. He gets frustrated when he visits a client's house to find one of his paddles hanging on a wall, rather than lying outside next to the canoe. "Although they're very beautiful, I make them to be used. You can always refinish them and make it look pretty again if it gets scratched up," he said.
The function sustains his love for his craft, as creating a paddle or canoe is a way for Mr. Walz to experience his true passion, wilderness canoeing, from home. "When I'm building a paddle, it kind of takes me there. I'm in the back of my mind as I'm constructing a blade; it kind of brings me back to that spot I love so much," he said.
In his younger days, he would do 100-mile loops through northern Minnesota and Canada. "It's a million acres of anywhere you want to go," he said of the region, called the Arrowhead. Today, his custom-made canoe has over 1,600 wilderness miles on it and will earn even more this fall, when he guides six novices on a trip up north.
Throughout it all, he always has his dog, his canoe and his paddle. He hopes to share that connection with others through the workshop, creating paddles that are "a special thing for them—something that means something to them," he said.
With times and dates to be arranged with Mr. Walz, the workshop is limited to five participants and will be held evenings at Walz Woodworks, 216 Springs-Fireplace Road in East Hampton. The fee is $400 for Surfrider Foundation members and $425 for non-members, with a one-year membership included. For more information, contact Barry Walz at 767-8838 or email@example.com.

TALLAHASSEE — Gov. Rick Scott is ramping up the pressure on President Barack Obama to delay implementing legislation that has sent flood insurance rates soaring across the state and the country.
The Florida governor on Wednesday sent his second letter in a week to Obama, imploring him to ease homeowners' pain. Scott again reminded Obama that he delayed portions of the federal health care law and should do the same with a flood insurance law.
"You already used your executive authority to delay the implementation of the Affordable Care Act and undo health insurance laws that were costing Floridians the health care plans they liked and wanted to keep," he wrote. "Why is keeping Floridians in their homes less important?"
Scott said Obama still has not responded to his original missive and requested he meet with the president "as soon as possible" on how to resolve the rate hike.
"Floridians are suffering," he wrote.
Flood insurance rates have spiked since the Biggert-Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act went into effect Oct. 1, ending some subsidies. Obama signed it into law July 6.
The House approved the budget Wednesday that included some relief for homeowners, but the impact is expected to be minimal and excludes vacation homes and businesses. One estimate is that it would impact less than a quarter of the flood insurance policies.
Meanwhile Scott has maintained a sense of urgency on the issue.
"We need you to take immediate action to undo the harmful effects of this law before it cripples Florida's real-estate market and threatens our state's economic momentum," he wrote. "I am making myself available to meet with you on this critical issue at your earliest convenience. Our state cannot wait. I look forward to sitting down with you soon to fix this problem."
In Congress, U.S.Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Fla., continued to call for legislation to delay the flood insurance rate hikes for several years.
Speaking from the Senate floor Wednesday, he said Florida has 40 percent of these policies that have seen rates soar since the new law took effect in October.
"We have seen spikes by 10-fold of the rate on the flood insurance policies," he said.
Nelson praised the budget measure that would give "partial relief" for some owners, but said it doesn't go far enough.
"The estimate is that it would only cover less than a quarter of all the flood insurance policies that are being affected by the huge rate hikes, and that's why we need to move forward with passing the broad bipartisan bill that will delay these hikes for several years while FEMA does an affordability study," he said.
The governor's office also had Nelson in its sights on Wednesday. A spokeswoman criticized the senator for calling on the U.S. Justice Department to investigate problems with the state's unemployment benefits website, but not asking the Obama administration to intervene on the flood insurance rates.
"Senator Nelson wants the Obama administration to help fix a website, but he does not want them to fix the (National Flood Insurance Program) rate hike. That's just odd. Even for Washington," Scott spokeswoman Melissa Sellers said in a statement.

Topics ranging from reducing the risks of breast cancer to breast reconstruction after mastectomy will be the focus of Eisenhower Medical Center's FREE community lectures offered throughout the month of October — recognized nationally as Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Specialists in diagnostic radiology, nutrition, radiation oncology and medical oncology will provide important information and updates on topics that matter most to breast cancer patients and survivors.

inode_buddha writes "Not long ago we ran a story about how a NY newspaper published lists of gun owners. Now, it seems the same newspaper has hired armed guards in response to unspecified threats to the editor, amid 'large volumes of negative response.' From the article: 'The editor, Caryn McBride, told police the newspaper hired a private security company whose "employees are armed and will be on site during business hours," the report said. The guards are protecting the newspaper's staff and Rockland County offices in West Nyack, New York.'"

Exposure to other peoples' languages
and cultures is an enriching experience that benefits all students, regardless
of professional interests or fields of specialization. In fact, double majoring or minoring in a
foreign language, particularly Spanish due to its pervasiveness in the United
States, increases future job prospects and feasibility of graduate work.
As such, the Spanish major provides
instruction in the language, literatures and cultures of the Hispanic world
(including Spain, South America, Central America, Mexico, the Caribbean and the
United States). Intermediate courses
offer panoramic overviews of linguistic, literary and cultural
developments. Advanced courses in
literature and culture take a thematic approach to major literary and cultural
developments in the Hispanic world.
Advanced courses in language address practical language applications in
the areas of service, translation, business and medicine. Secondary certification in Spanish is also
The Spanish program seeks (1) to
provide students with a highly-marketable and practical tool: the ability to
communicate in a pervasive modern language other than English and (2) to foster
cross-cultural understanding among students through study of the diverse
cultures of the Hispanic world as they are manifested in art, literature, film,
politics, history, religion, philosophy, education, business and medicine.
As bilingual scholars and employees,
Spanish majors are particularly poised to enter the workforce in a vast array
of fields, including:
Core Courses
All Spanish majors take the following six courses:
300-Level Courses
All Spanish majors take three courses of their choice at the 300 level. Course options include:
Capstone Experience
All Spanish majors complete a senior thesis, which is tailored to their
interests within the discipline. For
example, a student interested in literature has recently produced a thesis of
literary analysis on Borges, while a student interested in education has chosen
to analyze our local Migrant Education Program in comparison with other systems
of bilingual education.
All Spanish minors take the
following six courses:
majors develop competencies in the following areas:
preparing successful candidates for Pennsylvania Pre-K-12 certification, the
Department of Teacher Education faculty not only builds close communities of
students through collaborative learning in small classes but also builds
partnerships with school communities through collegial dialogue, staff
development opportunities, and interactive field experiences. We provide
thorough, individualized advising to accommodate the diverse needs of students
from the undergraduate program (both bachelor's and associate's degrees) and
the Teacher Intern Program. The Teacher Education program serves as a resource
for both the college community and the community at large to model innovative

Vermouths are wine based drinks flavoured with herbs and spices, usually consumed as aperitifs. Popular brands include Martini, Noilly Prat and Dubonnet.
Antonio Benedetto Carpano is said to be a godfather of the genre. Carpano, who created the recipe for Antica Formula, was an Italian distiller who added wine to an infusion of herbs and spices and spirits. He intended the drink for the ladies of Turin and he was inspired by a German wine flavoured with wormwood.
The added herbs and spices also did wonders for masking poor quality wines, and the improved concoctions became very popular.
Today, popular brands are often drunk with mixers, as well as being key ingredients for many cocktails – the legendary Martini is a mix of gin with a splash of dry vermouth (historically Noilly Prat). The Negroni is made with equal parts gin, Campari and sweet red vermouth (often Martini Rosso).
Did you know?... ....The word "Vermouth" comes from the German for wormwood, "Wermut".

Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.

Orange is a vibrant, happy, social color. An orange wall can bring a dynamic energy to any room. It can simultaneously brighten a space while warming it up. Paired with the right colors and accessories, a large swath of orange can make a room really shine. But orange walls haven't always been an easy sell to homeowners.
"People are just now getting comfortable stepping outside the beige box," says Los Angeles-based interior designer Kenneth Brown. "Orange has finally become something that I can mention to clients. They used to think, 'What are you talking about?' and now they are saying, 'Let's give it a try.' They're realizing that orange has a really dramatic, beautiful effect."
An orange wall need not look like a giant homage to the citrus fruit; many different hues of this inviting, invigorating color exist in the paint world. Patricia Gray of Patricia Gray Interior Design in Vancouver, British Columbia, has selected three Sherwin-Williams paint colors that she feels illustrate the diversity of orange:
- Husky Orange (SW 6636): "Husky Orange features rusty tones with more brown in it, and I find that this color is a lot more acceptable to a broader range of people. It is one of my favorite colors for using in living rooms, libraries and family rooms."
- Tango (SW 6649): "Tango is what I would call more of a mid-range orange, a current and hip color. I would use it for a focal wall in the living room or dining room; it would also be fun for an entryway."
- Kumquat (SW 6648): "Kumquat is beautiful because it tends to go into the peach tones, but it's an upbeat and livelier tone than what we were inundated with in the '80s. I find that Kumquat is very relaxing and soothing, which makes it ideal for a bedroom, sitting room or anyplace where you want a quieter mood."
Brown also believes that orange has its place in certain rooms of the house. For homeowners looking to dip their toe in the water, Brown suggests painting a wall orange in the dining room. "This is one room where you really want to have a big impact," he says. "You can take it to a bit more of a dramatic level than, say, a room you're going to live in all the time. The color works on two levels. You add to the dining experience, and it also adds to the drama of the house. And to me, there is something so appetizing about an orange dining room."
Orange walls are also well-suited for sunrooms and kids' playrooms. "I am never afraid to use orange in spaces where you want to create social interaction, energy or a lot of spirit," Brown says.
Like any dramatic color used abundantly, orange needs its counterparts. "White or cream help balance the heat of the color," Gray says. "Chocolate browns and charcoal grays are also accents that balance and coordinate nicely."
"Don't be afraid of your complementary blues and greens," adds Brown. "That doesn't mean you want to paint a blue wall across from an orange wall, as it will vibrate too much. Rather, consider placing two blue vases against an orange wall, and then throw in a couple of green pillows on a neutral surface, such as a sofa or chair."
Teal in particular is becoming a favorite color among homeowners for decorative accents against orange palettes, Brown notes. The designer completed a project where he created an orange accent wall and complemented it with very soft baby blue furniture. "The two together worked beautifully – offering serenity and spice," he recalls. Additionally, Brown believes that orange "is a great backdrop for black-and-white prints or to showcase your fabrics."
When it comes to selecting art for your orange walls, Brown urges caution. "Remember that an orange wall can sometimes act as the artwork in the room," he says. "So you don't want to overpower the wall with another piece of popping artwork. It will be a little too distracting for the eye."
The key to accessorizing and complementing orange walls, of course, is balance. "Teal and orange do work well together, but that doesn't mean you can't have something small that's yellow, green or purple," Brown says. "It's OK to bring in other little spots of color, but it's about creating balance, and that's what designers do very well."

The idea of turning Harold Gray's "Little Orphan Annie" into a musical comedy was the inspiration of lyricist-director Martin Charnin, who convinced composer Charles Strouse and librettist Thomas Meehan to join in creating it. The show, which places Annie, Daddy Warbucks and Annie's mutt, Sandy in New York City in the midst of the Depression, opened on Broadway on April 21, 1977. As an infant, Annie had been abandoned on the front steps of The New York City Municipal Orphanage with a note from her parents promising to return for her someday. Life in the orphanage had been rough under the strict hand of Miss Hannigan, but Annie's life was about to change. Billionaire Oliver Warbucks invites Annie to spend Christmas with him in his mansion, and together, they each discover new happiness. Warbucks soon decides he wants to adopt Annie, but when he learns about her dream of finding her parents and the secret of the half-locket she has treasured for so long, he sets his own feelings aside and orders an exhaustive search for Annie's parents. Annie went on to win seven Tony awards and became the third longest running musical of the 1970s with 2,377 performances.

Is there such a thing as The Perfect Corvette? For many long-time Vette lovers, the answer is an emphatic YES, as they point to the '67 Sting Ray as proof. Five years of refinement and continuous production had taken a very good car and made it the symbol not only of sports-car superiority, but also of American automotive engineering, styling, and production in general. Starting with an all-new platform that beat its three closest rivals-the Jaguar E-Type, A.C./Shelby Cobra, and Studebaker Avanti-in terms of build quality, availability, affordability, street drivability, and gotta-have-it ability, Chevrolet improved the Corvette each year by adding new features such as four-wheel disc brakes, a four-speed gearbox made by GM's own Muncie Gear Division, optional air conditioning, the Mark IV big-block engine, and side exhausts.
When those features, in any combination, were added to the '67-edition Sting Ray, they made for an even more desirable version of America's Only True Sports Car. That's thanks in part to the build quality at St. Louis Assembly-after building just over 94,000 Sting Rays from 1963-1966, they were getting good at it, at a time when some domestic car-assembly plants' build quality was getting worse.
Milt Robson's '67 Sting Ray convertible has many of the features that became available on the second-generation Corvette during its production history, plus one extremely noticeable feature that arrived for 1967: the optional 435hp, triple-Holley-two-barrel-carbureted RPO L71 427. Built at Chevrolet's Tonawanda (New York) engine plant, the L71 represented the highest-output engine ever offered for sale in a streetable Vette (if you don't count the '66 L72 427, whose factory horsepower rating was dropped from 450 to 425-by picking a lower number on the engine's power curve and changing a sticker on the air cleaner-in a bid to silence car-industry critics). It was one of only two multiple-carbureted engines offered by any General Motors division for 1967, after some upper-level GM-management arm twisting got Oldsmobile and Pontiac to discontinue their triple-two-barrel carburetor options after 1966. The second multi-carb engine option was the L68 400hp offering in the Corvette.
Milt's '67 looks much like it did when it left St. Louis. "It's a neat little old car," Milt says. "It had about 40,000 original miles on it before it was restored. We've got all the original paperwork-the order form, invoice, window sticker, and the original gas tank sticker." He's owned it for over two decades, and during its lifetime, this particular Sting Ray was featured as the cover car on at least one Corvette restoration-parts catalog.
During its restoration, this midyear didn't need to have any features or options that weren't originally on the car added to it. That's because this one was outfitted right the first time. "If you could go back, that's the way you'd order it," Milt says. That restoration not only included refinishing it in its Rally Red splendor; it also included keeping the L71's original 11.0:1 compression ratio, which isn't compatible with many of today's commonly available pump premium gasoline. "We don't run it on today's gas," Milt notes. "We keep high-octane fuel in 55-gallon barrels."

The movie's title refers to the duo's five year search for the young woman, and their struggle to rescue her once she is adopted by the tribe and married to Chief Scar.
