On Dec. 1, the Saint Louis University's Museum of Contemporary Religious Art (MOCRA) will observe 'Day With(out) Art,' a national day of action and mourning in response to the AIDS crisis.
MOCRA's current exhibition, Adrian Kellard: The Learned Art of Compassion, features work by a young artist whose life was cut short by AIDS in 1991. The exhibition continues through Dec. 11.
Regular museum hours are Tuesday through Sunday, 11 a.m.- 4 p.m. Exhibition admission is free, though there is a suggested donation of $5 or $1 for students and children.
Find more information by calling 314-977-7170 or visiting the MOCRA website.
MOCRA will also releasing a special episode of its MOCRA Voices podcast series on Dec. 1, featuring an interview with curator and art historian Thomas Sokolowski.
Sokolowski was instrumental in the founding of Day With(out) Art and the creation of the red ribbon for AIDS Awareness. In this interview, Sokolowski talks about the close relationship between art and AIDS activism, and reflects on the past, present and future role of art where AIDS is concerned. The podcast can be streamed from MOCRA's website or downloaded from the iTunes Store. Visit the MOCRA website and follow the link for MOCRA Voices for more information.
About Day With(out) Art
Day Without Art (DWA) began on Dec. 1, 1989, as a national day of action and mourning in response to the AIDS crisis. Events included shutting down museums to send staff to volunteer at AIDS services or sponsoring special exhibitions of work about AIDS.
Since then, Day With(out) Art has grown into a collaborative project in which an estimated 8,000 national and international museums, galleries, art centers, AIDS Service Organizations, libraries, high schools and colleges take part.
In 1997 Day Without Art become a 'Day With Art,' to recognize and promote increased programming of cultural events that draw attention to the continuing pandemic. Parentheses were added to the program title, 'Day With(out) Art,' to highlight the proactive programming of art projects by artists living with HIV/AIDS, and art about AIDS, that were taking place around the world.
About the Museum of Contemporary Religious Art (MOCRA)

I'm trying to modify the style of my forms -- specifically, the color of the borders of text and radio inputs. (I'm using a table within a form, and the right and bottom borders are colored white, and alternating rows of the zentable are white, and so the borders of text and radio inputs do not show up well in the white rows.
I've tried everything I can think of to modify the border style of these form elements, including the modification of the template file form.css. Nothing has any effect, which I can't really understand.
Here's the page I'm working on:
I'm modifying this style in forms.css:
#maincontent form.cool input,#maincontent form.cool textarea,#maincontent form.cool select
width: 300px;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
border-color: #aaa #ccc #ccc #aaa;
padding: 3px;
margin: 4px 0;
I changed border-color from #ccc #fff #fff #ccc to what you see above. But it has had absolutely no effect. That class of the form I am trying to change is "cool", of course.
Not that I actually want to have to modify the forms.css file. I want to redefine the style within the page that contains the form. But when nothing I tried had any effect, I thought I would go to the source just to try to get a bead on what I how I would need to define the style on my page. But since even modifying forms.css has no effect, I'm pretty well stuck.

When it comes to being a street rod enthusiast, there's no time like the present. Virtually anyone with a nice savings account and a little bit of automotive know-how can build an entire custom car with killer good looks and ground pounding performance. And the best part about these creations is: they're every bit as road ready as showroom fresh sports cars with twice the amount of style! This intense 1937 Ford coupe is a professionally built custom which mixes the best attributes of a 'velvet rope and red carpet' show car with the streetability of a well-tuned muscle car. Beneath its crowd gathering body, you'll find a modern 454 crate motor, a stalwart automatic transmission, a sophisticated air ride suspension and a whole lot of other top notch hardware which makes its $70K list price even more unbelievable than its pearl orange paint. If you're a hardcore street rod fan who's been looking for the perfect custom to show off at the next cruise night AND enjoy on the open road, you're search is over!
This awesome '37 Ford coupes smooth and sinuous fuselage began life at a small, but well-known company called Minotti Fiberglass in Naples, Florida. Established almost 20 years ago, Minotti is a diverse, family owned operation which has built a fantastic reputation for providing both top notch building components and great looking replicas of some of the most popular Ford street rods to ever roll out of Dearborn, Michigan. Once this cars solid and detailed Minotti body was fully cured and completely pre-assembled, it hopped a truck to Eastern Rod and Customs in Raleigh, North Carolina where a coat of trailer queen worthy Tangelo Pearl Orange urethane was massaged to perfection. Today, with only 63 miles on its ground up build, this sizzling street rod features the tailored sophistication of an OEM show piece, crisp contours that are much better than original Henry Ford steel, and a whole roster of top notch modifications which add even more appeal to its already outrageous design.
There really isn't much more you can do to make a late 30s Ford more attractive. The streamlined styling was a home-run when originally introduced; and today, it's a stunning example of some of the strongest elements of the highly regarded Art Deco movement. So when you build a street rod like this one, the best thing to do is let the original curves do the talking, and simply enhance what's already there. At the front of this slick '37 Ford, an aftermarket chrome grille sits inside two smoked and chrome trimmed headlights which incorporate hidden LED turn signals below traditional halogen bulbs. Behind that grille, a lightweight fiberglass hood meets a chopped and split windshield which is cleared by stainless wipers and sealed by fresh black weatherstripping. And at the top of the car, a great looking ridged roof sits over new smoked side and back glass. At the bottom of the car, like-new running boards ride between shaved, remote activated doors and stainless trimmed side outlet exhaust pipes. And naturally, the back of the car is just as clean as its profile with a shaved, handle actuated trunk lid and simple, chrome trimmed cat's eye tail lamps providing the only breaks in a sea of vivid orange paint.
'Don't fix what ain't broke' might apply to the looks of this awesome Ford street rod; but when it comes to the cars performance, 'bigger is always better'! Under the fully removable hood you'll find a fresh 454 cubic inch, 450 horsepower big block Chevrolet crate engine. At the top of that engine, a custom air filter funnels wind into a Demon 750 4-barrel carburetor which is outfitted with braided fuel lines, high quality Jegs fittings and a Marshall fuel pressure gauge. That massive carburetor sends air/fuel mixture into a chrome Edelbrock Performer intake which feeds eight sequentially fired cylinders that are sparked by a traditional HEI distributor and loomed Summit Racing plug wires. At the sides of that intake, chrome Mickey Thompson valve covers hang K&N breathers above ceramic coated Hooker Headers; and at the front of that intake, fresh V-belts spin a chrome Powermaster alternator next to a polished AC compressor. The cars clean and smoothed engine compartment is relatively sparse aside from a proven Walker radiator which wears a polished cowl cover and feeds chrome flex hoses. And it's finished in the same pearlescent orange as the cars exterior panels, which allows the thoroughly detailed motor, with its assortment braided hoses and trick details like a Lokar throttle linkage, to create plenty of trophy winning texture and contrast.
Behind the cars professionally designed big block engine you'll find a rebuilt TH400 3-speed automatic transmission which is one of the toughest and most reliable units GM has ever produced. Power flows from that proven transmission through a new driveshaft to a tough Ford 9 inch rear end which is bolted between the cars Tangelo Orange frame, a Heidts front subframe with tubular control arms, and a great handling four link rear suspension. And exhaust flows from the cars ceramic coated Hooker headers through ceramic coated true dual pipes to great sounding ceramic coated Magnaflow mufflers. Quick stops come courtesy of a Baer disc brake system which utilizes braided lines and chrome calipers to squeeze giant drilled and slotted rotors at all four corners. And ride height is completely customized thanks to a fully adjustable Air Ride Technologies suspension system. Not a detail was missed on the bottom of this show stopping Ford coupe, and the cars many niceties include a fresh, custom built fuel tank that's equipped with a high flow electronic fuel pump, braided fuel lines with Jegs fittings, completely stainless hardware and completely detailed, body-matched floors. Throwing the torque to the asphalt is a mirror-like set of 17 inch Budnik Gasser billet aluminum wheels which wear 215/40 Kuhmo Ecstas up front and 31×16.50 Hoosier Pro Street Radials out back.
Open the doors of this killer '37 Ford and you'll find a tasteful custom interior that combines the cars spectacular exterior paint with supple white leather which feels nice enough to adorn the centerpiece of your living room. The firm and modern Cerullo SC bucket seats are supportive; feel soft enough to take a nap on, and feature clean, color matched lap belts. At the sides of those seats, custom door panels hang slick body matched inserts below attractive billet aluminum door handles. And between those seats, a custom covered and body matched console anchors a chrome B&M shifter between switches for the cars power windows, a control panel for the cars adjustable air suspension, a polished emergency brake handle and a kill switch for the big block motor. At the front of the car, a stylish and simplistic dash hangs attractive Dolphin gauges above controls for the heat and air conditioning system, hidden buttons for the cars accessories, a modern Alpine CD player and a classic "V8" emblem. And at the top of the car, a custom leather headliner is stretched tightly around a clear dome light and a centered, body-matched insert. In front of the driver, a polished Budnik steering wheel sits on a chrome tilt steering column and features a matching leather rim. And behind the cockpit, a custom upholstered trunk conceals the cars fuel filler behind plenty of luggage space for weekend getaways.
As with and extensive build, this vivid Ford street rod comes with ample documentation. Included with the sale is a stack of invoices from Eastern Rod and Customs, paperwork for the air ride suspension and a few pictures of the cars construction.
Cool and classic this '37 Ford is a vision in orange, and every piece of it is 100% show ready and in immaculate condition. You really can't ask for a more impressive custom car, and you certainly can't build one this cool for the asking price. Step up to something different than the run-of-the-mill red '32s you see everywhere – this car is ready to show and go!

From Staff Reports
TUPELO – The Starkville Yellowjackets saw their Class 6A, Region 1 record even at 2-2 when Tupelo hit a three-point field goal at the buzzer to win a 73-72 decision at home.
Starkville had a 72-70 lead near the end of the game when the Golden Wave sank the winning three-pointer.
After missing a pair of free throws, the basketball kicked back to Tupelo and as the Starkville defense collapsed, the Golden Wave threw up a one-handed, off-balanced shot that somehow found its way into the hoop.
Jacoby Mobley led the Jackets with 19 points, while Gavin Ware added 15 points and Mike Brand and Tori Rice had 13 points each.
Starkville (12-6), which has lost four of its last five games, hosts Noxubee County tonight.

"Player Piano" NXT
This NXT reads a strip a paper, then plays the melody that it reads from the paper strip.
Posted by: Rick Rhodes at 12:16 AM
4 comments:
How is the tune encoded on the paper? To me, it doesn't look like there are enough marks on the paper to produce such a long, complicated melody. Does anyone know where we can get more details?
- May 5, 2007, 12:15:00 AM
- Rick Rhodes said...
I think the light sensor reads the color on the paper, and each color stands for a "note" in the program. If I can get more information, I'll post it here.
- May 5, 2007, 3:54:00 AM
Oh, you're right. I didn't look close enough the first time. I was thinking both note duration and pitch were encoded, but it looks like the colors only encode pitch.
- May 5, 2007, 6:11:00 AM
Rick is right, its just a simple player. I made it for a school project. Each color corresponds to a note which is determined by the amount of light that is reflected back to the light sensor.

Matt Clements, assistant professor of Economics presented the paper "Inefficient Incentives for Risk Bearing" at the International Academy of Business and Economics Conference in Las Vegas in October 2010. One generally accepted cause of the Financial Crisis of 2008 is that some risks, such as the risks associated with certain collateralized debt obligations, were not priced correctly. Two potential reasons for this are that the risks were not well understood, and that those choosing to bear risk had too much incentive to do so. At least part of the reason why a consumer would take large risks but not small ones is that laws and other institutions create the incentive to do so. A potentially more interesting question is why these incentives exist in the first place. This paper considers the extent to which risk is handled inefficiently in the U.S. and argues that this is a systemic phenomenon. The paper examines the historical roots of institutions governing risk and argues that a fundamental misunderstanding of the nature and extent of risk faced by the typical consumer has played a key role in the development of these institutions.
Associate Professor of Accounting Carolyn Conn and two of her students, Isabel Serrano '12 and Peggy Wiggins '12, gave a presentation at the American Accounting Association Southwest regional meeting in Houston on March 12. "Experiential Learning...with a Twist" described the research project from Dr. Conn's undergraduate Accounting Ethics course and the resulting video produced in conjunction with the Texas State Board of Public Accountancy (TSBPA) and the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy. Donna Hiller, TSBPA Director of Qualifications, also participated in the presentation.
Assistant professor of Psychology Mike Disch and psychology student Ashlee Andres '12 presented research on human decision making at the 2011 annual meeting of the Southwestern Psychological Association in San Antonio. The research was designed to examine the effects of having participants engage in mathematical thinking prior to answering questions about the probability that a described individual was a member of one of two categorical groups. Typically in such cases, humans ignore base rate, or frequency information, in favor of judgments based on the similarity between the described individual and the categories to which they could belong. We found that priming participants with math questions led to an increase in their likelihood of using rational decision making processes, rather than the typical judgments based on similarity.
Assistant Professor of Education Steven Fletcher presented the following papers:
- "Unplugging the Math and Science Teacher Pipeline: Recruitment from Community Colleges," at the Austin Science Education at the Crossroads Conference in Austin, in April 2011.
- "Unpacking mentorship: Voices from science teachers that mentor preservice teacher candidates," (co-authored) at the National Science Teacher Association Annual Meeting in San Francisco, in March 2011.
Associate Professor of Communication Teresita Garza was invited to chair a panel entitled "Race and the Production of Identity via the Technologies of Culture" on Nov. 15, 2010, at the 2010 National Communication Association Convention in San Francisco. The panel was sponsored by the Critical and Cultural Studies Division of the National Communication Association.
Garza was selected to present at the 96th annual 2010 National Communication Association Convention on Nov. 16, 2010, in San Francisco. The competitively selected panel on which she presented was entitled "Somos de Una Voz? (Are we of one voice?): Building Bridges Between Critical Cultural Studies and Latin@ Communication Studies." The panel was sponsored by the Critical and Cultural Studies Division of the National Communication Association.
Hollis Hammonds, area coordinator and assistant professor of Art, had the paper "For Better or For Worse: The Union Between Teaching & Making Drawings" accepted for a panel presentation at the biennial conference of Foundations in Art Theory and Education (FATE) in St. Louis, in March 2011. FATE is a national association dedicated to the promotion of excellence in the development and teaching of college-level foundation courses in both studio and art history. The paper explores the role of the educator/artist in higher education and the reciprocal relationship between teaching art and the studio practice.
Arcelia Hernandez, Education instructor, presented "Teacher Candidate/Intern Professional Development through an Induction Learning Community" at a conference in New Orleans, on Feb. 18, 2011.

Catherine Smith MacDermott, professor of Business Communication, presented "The Road Less Traveled … Study Abroad Programs for the Millennial Generation" at the W.H.A.T. Conference on Feb. 19, 2011. Many study abroad programs were developed before the "Millennial Generation" began studying abroad. How students make study abroad decisions and how to ensure success and essential global learning meant adapting a model to the traits of this generation. An analysis by faculty who led a recent study abroad program addressed how they adapted program to the demands and needs of the millennial student and their helicopter parents. This workshop described a recently developed model, lessons learned, and shared the adaptations being made to address the "Seven Distinguishing Traits of the Millennial Generation."
Professor of Management Lewis A. Myers, Jr. presented the paper "Globalization: Economics versus Ethics" at the Ninth Annual Hawaii International Conference on Arts and Humanities on Jan. 9–12, 2011, in Honolulu, Hawaii.

The case was included in a textbook published by Pearson Publishing in Fall 2010.
Human Service professionals are committed to behaving in a manner that is compliant with the National Organization for Human Services' (NOHS) Ethical Statements. Effective leadership also requires a strong commitment to ethical decision making with complex situations that require an appropriate level of action. Determining how to appropriately respond to ethical problems and when to take action can be especially challenging for new supervisors. If situations are not handled appropriately the resulting affects can have a negative impact on employee conduct and organizational effectiveness. The case prepares the reader to respond to a variety of dilemmas that human service professionals might encounter in a clinic setting. It assists the reader in understanding their approach to conflict and provides suggestions for developing appropriate responses to situations that require ethical intervention.

Wilson College is offering prospective students a rare opportunity in the increasingly expensive world of higher education – a chance for students to reduce their debt by up to $10,000 through a unique debt buyback program.

CHAMBERSBURG, Pa. — Wilson College is offering prospective students a rare opportunity in the increasingly expensive world of higher education – a chance for students to reduce their debt by up to $10,000 through a unique debt buyback program.
Under Wilson's student debt buyback plan, the first of its kind in higher education, the college will pay up to $10,000 toward a student's federal Stafford Loan debt if the student meets prescribed academic and service requirements. The debt buyback program will be available to students entering in fall 2014. To qualify, students must be a first-time college student and earn a diploma in four years or less of continuous, full-time enrollment at Wilson College.
Wilson's debt buyback plan, which was drawn from corporate practices, recognizes the need to make college more affordable and creates a strong value proposition for the institution.
"It provides an innovative form of support for Wilson students while serving as a powerful incentive for academic success, service to the community and participation in the life of the campus," said Dr. Barbara K. Mistick, president. "We want to encourage students to take full advantage of the college experience, while reducing the burden of student debt."
The debt buyback program was approved by the Wilson College Board of Trustees in January as part of a bold series of measures aimed at rejuvenating the college by significantly increasing enrollment, strengthening programs and facilities, addressing issues of educational cost and value, and ensuring financial sustainability in the future.
In addition to creating the debt buyback plan, Wilson's trustees voted to reduce tuition by $5,000, or 17 percent, to $23,745 for first-time Wilson students entering in fall 2014. In fall 2012, the board agreed to freeze tuition for 2013-14 at $28,745 for the third year in a row.
The buyback program will begin with the incoming class in fall 2014, with the first eligible students graduating in spring 2018.
Wilson officials expect the plan to cost up to $100,000 a year, depending on variables. The college will fund the plan through additional the revenue generated by increased enrollments and retention of students participating in the program.
"It's a proverbial win-win – for both students and the college," Mistick said. "We are very hopeful that students and parents will see the value in our debt buyback plan and take advantage of it."
Some specifics of the debt buyback program:
The plan approved by Wilson's Board of Trustees in January calls for expanding coeducation at Wilson across all programs. Traditional-age male students are being admitted as commuters for fall 2013. The college will admit male residential students in fall 2014.
Wilson College has been named a "Best Value" college in its region for providing quality academics at an affordable price for 11 consecutive years by U.S. News & World Report's "America's Best Colleges" publication. The college has been ranked one of the best regional colleges for undergraduate education for nine straight years by U.S. News.
Founded in 1869, Wilson College is a private, coeducational liberal arts college offering bachelor's degrees in 34 majors/concentrations and master's degrees in education, the humanities and accountancy. Wilson is committed to providing an affordable education that offers value to its students beyond graduation. Located in Chambersburg, Pa., the college has a fall 2013 enrollment of 662, which includes students from 20 states and 14 countries. Visit www.wilson.edu for more information.

DUBLIN, Feb. 17, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/g82cb7/global_online) has announced the addition of the "Global Online Payment Methods Report" report to their offering.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130307/600769)
Online and mobile payments are increasing globally, with new channels emerging
The recent ""Global Online Payment Methods 2013 - First Half 2013"" provides information about the worldwide movement toward online and mobile purchase transactions. The report is based on recently published information from a variety of sources and details the latest trends and news on the topic, with projections of continued growth in the next few years.
The emergence of new online payment channels and development of alternative payment methods are expected to drive further growth. Near Field Communication (NFC) based e-wallets came on the scene in 2012 as one of the most promising new mobile payment methods. NFC mobile spending worldwide is expected to increase exponentially by 2017 and account for over half of total mobile payments made worldwide. Hybrid payments combining online and mobile methods are expected to emerge in 2013. MasterCard already introduced such a solution earlier this year, while Visa entered a partnership with Samsung to encourage development of mobile payments. PayPal surpassed its revenue targets in 2012, more than tripling the value of processed payments.
New payment methods build on the infrastructure and consumer preferences already in place, so regional differences exist. In the USA, the major trend on the electronic payment market is the move toward mobile payments. Traditional payment providers, such as card issuers and processors, online payment players, retailers and mobile operators are entering the field in increased masses. The mobile payment transaction value in the USA reached a two-digit figure in billions of Euros in 2012 and is expected to grow further as mobile commerce increases and more brick and mortar stores accept mobile payments.
In Latin America in general, credit card was the most popular payment method in B2C E-Commerce in 2012. In Brazil, the local payment solution Boleto Bancario was used widely, while several payment providers introduced new online and mobile payment tools in the country. In Mexico, cash still dominates the general payment environment, but the use of online card payments was on the rise and is expected to increase further.
In Central Europe, awareness of mobile payment methods was relatively high in 2012, reaching over two-thirds of mobile Internet users in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The usage rates, however, were much lower, reaching a small two-digit percentage share. The most used online payment methods in German B2C E-Commerce in the second half of 2012 were credit card, invoice and PayPal. Mobile NFC-based payments were not yet spread in Germany in 2012, but are expected to increase in use as banks, credit card companies and telecom operators test the technology involved. The Otto Group launched the mobile payment project called Yapital in early 2013.

Very few of us are strangers to financial uncertainty these days, considering the struggles we've endured through the housing market collapse and ensuing recession.
And while those experiences may afford us a certain measure of comfort as we prepare to ring in the New Year with our fate largely in the hands of a dysfunctional Congress and a Federal Reserve in transition, the economic unknown that awaits us in 2014 also makes one thing certain: We have little room for self-inflicted financial errors.
Coming to that realization is especially important for those of us in the banking and retail industries as well as the more than 30 percent of small-business owners who use credit cards for funding purposes.
Why? Because two major holdovers from the pre-recession era of opaque, unfair credit card policies have the potential to not only foster even more financial uncertainty for those groups, but also to reduce their profit margins at a time when they can least afford it.
The first is a deceptive financing structure known as deferred interest, which artificially increases retail sales but is not a viable long-term strategy. The second is a regulatory oversight that has left the small-business community without protection under the CARD Act and therefore at the mercy of credit card executives.
Deferred Interest: Unsustainable and predatory
The post-recession credit card market has been characterized by a preponderance of lucrative initial rewards bonuses and lengthy zero percent financing deals as issuers compete to rebuild their customer bases on the backs of consumers with excellent credit. While the majority of these offers are legitimately valuable, 49 percent of the major retailers that offer financing through co-branded credit cards employ deferred interest, and 41 percent of them hide the "deferred" part of things in fine print.

Hazardous Materials Endorsement
Applying for an Hazardous Materials Endorsement
The USA Patriot Act requires individuals applying for, or renewing, a Commercial Driver's License (CDL) with a HAZMAT endorsement (HME) to be fingerprinted and complete a background records check. The Act also allows customers transferring a CDL with the HAZMAT endorsement from another state to transfer their valid HME background records check without the requirements for fingerprinting or showing proof of citizenship or immigration PROVIDED the background records check is verified by the state of issuance.
To complete a background records check application and be fingerprinted, you must visit one of the DMV customer service centers equipped to process your application.
The non-refundable fee for the background check and fingerprinting is $83.00.
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has determined that the security threat assessments (fingerprinting and background check) performed on applicants for a Transportation Worker's Identification Credential (TWIC) card is comparable to that performed on applicants for the HME. As a result, TSA exempts HME applicants from the background records/fingerprint check if a valid TWIC card is submitted with the HME application. The TWIC card must be verified by the customer service representative (CSR) online with TSA to qualify for this option.
If you are applying for a HME using TWIC comparability, the HME expiration date will be tied to the expiration date of the TWIC - the HME will expire no later than the current expiration date of the TWIC. The non-refundable reduced fee is $41.00. You may visit any DMV customer service center to process your reduced fee application.
To be eligible for a HAZMAT endorsement, you are required to provide a document to show proof of U.S. citizenship or immigration, as specified in the Federal Motor Carrier Administration's Code of Federal Regulations, 49 CFR Section 383.71.
If you are applying for the HAZMAT endorsement for the first time, your CDL will be issued without a HAZMAT endorsement. Allow at least 45 days for the HAZMAT endorsement to be processed. If renewing your CDL with the HAZMAT endorsement you will receive your CDL with a hazardous materials endorsement. The HME will be contingent on TSA approval of eligibility based on the background records/fingerprint check.
If you are transferring into Virginia, you will receive a HAZMAT endorsement on your CDL if you currently hold the endorsement on your out-of-state CDL and DMV can verify your eligibility with your current state. You will also be required to pass the HAZMAT Knowledge test in Virginia. If you have not completed a fingerprint-based Transportation Security Administration (TSA) background check in your current state, or your eligibility cannot be verified by DMV, you may be issued a Virginia CDL with a HAZMAT endorsement only if you apply for and pass the background check and HAZMAT Knowledge test in Virginia.
Fingerprint and application information will be sent to the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). TSA will perform background checks, make security assessments and notify DMV whether the application is approved or denied.
Based on the results from TSA, DMV will either issue the CDL with the HAZMAT endorsement or send you a notification of denial by TSA. If approved, you may return to DMV to be photographed and pick up your CDL, provided you have successfully completed the HAZMAT Knowledge test.
For renewal, DMV encourages you to renew as soon as you receive your renewal invitation. This allows ample time for the federal background check to be completed. A customer who waits to renew until his current CDL expires, will be eligible to renew the CDL, but will not receive the HME. He must apply for an original HME and wait for eligibility determination by TSA.
The background records check is valid for up to five years.[Back to Top]
USA Patriot Act
The Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA Patriot) Act is a federal law that addresses national security and includes provisions that require commercial drivers who transport hazardous materials to be fingerprinted and successfully complete a criminal history background records check.
The federal requirements are issued by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and support the USA Patriot Act. These requirements change the application process for Commercial Driver's License (CDL) holders applying for or renewing a CDL with a hazardous materials HAZMAT endorsement.
For more information about the USA Patriot Act, you may visit the TSA website at www.tsa.gov/public, contact TSA by phone at (866) 289-9673 or email to firstname.lastname@example.com.[Back to Top]

If you didn't use such a vague/incoherent topic title...
there was nothing vague or incoherent about uni's question...

i agree about the topic title. so many people dont realize that we're seeing the topic outside of the subforum - perhaps in the Spy or the main page. seeing "new console question" can mean a myriad of things. i only clicked on it b/c i thought you were asking about the PS4 or next Xbox
it's like those people that title their topic something like "quick question"...
and, back to your original question, i'm one that didnt know the answer either.

Posted 10 February 2013 - 03:56
the topic said new console question. in the old days of the caring neowin where we were actually active you'd click on the thread, read the post, and answer. you wouldn't look at the thread, think "oh i'm so high and mighty and president of the universe so my busy schedule won't allow me to actually try and find out what this is about", then go into the thread only to complain about how vague the topic was. neowin is dead, and again, it's people like me that are responsible. i can't be bothered to come here anymore, lost all motivation to do so. and this obnoxious attitude from some members doesn't help. uni's topic and question were completely valid.

even so if you figure something out on your own its always nice to post how you resolved your issue so that people in the future that see this topic will know how it was done.

I have almost 6 months on my Galileo's now and they're still holding up great. I use them indoor and climb 3-4 days a week and I'm surprised by how well they've worn. They did stretch a little bit more than I was expecting, but that's no fault of the shoe - just the buyer! I would still recommend them as a great edging shoe with a downturned (but not overly agressive) toe
I got a pair of 5.10s grandstones last summer and loved them. Great trad shoe. Bought these for bouldering and shorter routes. And honestly they're great. Superb edging. Snug fit. Nice heels. Everything about the performance of the shoe is terrific. But I can't believe how bad they stink already. Moved away from evolvs because of this same issue. Honestly, I know it has a lot to do with my own stinky feet, but these synthetic uppers really just don't breathe well. If that matters to you, consider something leather, for example the la sportiva mythos, my go to shoe for years. But even with the stench, the performance of this shoe more than makes up for it.
I feel that this shoe doesn't have much toe space as the downturned shoes. Sportiva accommodates this much more. I tried to downsize and my toes were just cramping too much. I got into the Miura vs and they are a dream and better on the small foot holds
These shoes are great for beginner climbing! They are not very aggressive, but the feel of them and the tight fit to my foot is fantastic. If you order the right size, then these shoes are going to feel snug against your feet. They are very durable and should last quite a long time if you are using them a couple times a week.
This will be my second pair of gallileo's. The way they feel while climbing has yet to be defeated by another shoe. The other shoes I have used were Sportiva Katana's and FiveTen Moccs and they don't really compare. The velcro allows them to slip on and off very quick which is nice, and because there is velcro you can cinch them down really tight when needed for climbing rock that has smaller features. I primarily use these shoes for face climbing but I have stuffed them in a crack a handful of times without trouble. Although, If you're looking for specific crack climbing shoes I think I would avoid these because the metal on the side of the velcro.
These are the stiffest shoes I have owned. These are possibly the most comfy shoes I own as well. The microfiber split tongue makes these shoes a peach to wear for multi-pitch climbs or an afternoon at the gym. They will edge all day, although not agressive at all for overhung boudlering. They do not stretch even a little, but are pretty true to size. I have an extremely low volume foot and they still fit extremely well when ordered true size.Overall, a fantastic shoe.
So far I have had the Galileos for about 3 months now, and It has been a great trad shoes for me. Its an all day shoe, that doesn't kill your feet. The rubber and flat footing really helps with granite and slab climbing. Street Show I wear 9.5-10 (depending on the Brand) got a size 10.5 in these for all day. Minimal Stretch. Very please with the shoe. It still has the weird 5.10 heel cup though.
Totally solid climbing shoe that can help bring your climbing to new levels. I got these shoes for sport climbing at the New but then moved out to Wyoming and have been super happy with them bouldering and on trad here. I had just started climbing 11's when I got these and they really helped me improve my climbing- especially bouldering.Incredible and precise toe with super sticky rubber. I know this is designed as a technical shoe but I would recommend it to beginners because I think the stiffness of this shoe may give them more confidence and help them learn to balance on their toe sooner.
I have only had this shoe for about two weeks now, so I'm sure it'll still getting broken in. But so far I am happy with my purchase. Here's what I've gathered so far:Pros: Great for edging and an awesome rubber that will stick to anything. Velcro is great for easy on/off. Heel hooks feel secure in it.Cons: Velcro shapes do not get nearly as tight/snug as lace ups. Since its built with a stiffer plate, the shoe isn't as great for smearing.Sizing: I wear a size 10.5 street shoe. My last pair of shoes (Evolv Bandit) was a 10, so I ordered the Galileo in size 10. Seem to fit alright...although I am still breaking them in.
If you looking for a good introduction shoe this shoe is not a bad place to start. Consider where are you going to climb before you pick this shoe. If you plan on smearing or just technical slab I would look into a different style. The mid-sole is very stiff and the give is not really existent. Also, the stiffness if the rubber can deaden the transmission of rock information through your feet. Try these shoes on before you buy them. The sizing is a bit funky and the ankle stiffness may be too much for you.If this shoe fits it's a great place to start.Great for boulders and great for single pitch edgingNot so great for slab and not so great for long hauls

Time Capsules In the News
In the November 1936 issue of Scientific
American magazine, Dr. Thornwell Jacobs
described his plan to create a permanent record
- a time capsule - of what life was like on
Earth for any future inhabitants.
Because the first known date in recorded history,
4241 B.C., was 6177 years previous, Jacobs
suggested that the Crypt be sealed until 6177
years have passed - thus setting the date for
the Crypt's reopening in the year 8113.
The Crypt was officially sealed in 1940.
Oglethorpe University is proud to be the
custodian of the Crypt. Oglethorpe's
administration continues its stewardship and
the challenge of keeping alive the memory of
this remarkable Georgia time capsule.
The Crypt of Civilization has been featured
in stories by the Associated Press, NBC, ABC,
CNN, National Public Radio, the New York Times,
and other publications. If you are a
member of the press and would like further
information about the Crypt or are interested

"Great for senior horses"
My senior horse developed chronic diarrhea. His fecal test was negative & no feed or care was changed so the vet couldn't find any reason for the stomach upset. Upon the advice of a friend I started giving ProBios. The diarrhea was cleared up after 2 days & he started gaining weight & acting like himself again! I was so impressed with the results that I put my other senior horse on ProBios as well & now they both receive it on a daily basis. Both horses eat it with no problem & do really well on it. Highly recommended!
"Great stuff"
I use this product after administering antibiotics to my chickens, also just for general good health. My dogs get it too. Great product. I like that it mixes with water or can be sprinkled on food
"A Must for your Goat Medicine Cabinet"
I use this product for my pygmy goats (and horses and chickens and more). Use it any time that antibiotics are used especially in goats as they need to replenish their good bacteria in their rumen. A simple top dressing over the feed works well. This is a definite must have for your livestock medicine cabinet.
"A Must Have"
I use this on my sheep after worming or antibiotics to help keep the rumen balanced. I also use it on my rabbits when they have tummy upsets. They don't seem to notice a taste, as their water consumption stays consistent. I always keep it on hand for when I may need it.
"Excellent conditioner"
I use this product and my Rooftop pigeons love it, as it has assisted in the floral gut of my pigeons which is noticed in firm, tight droppings. Again I use this product two times a week at a rate of 2 teaspoons to 2 gallons of water. EXCELLENT as a conditioner or especially after treating for any disease

'The nerve garden didn't decay. I wanted the rock to have a kind of movement you don't normally have in rock forms - animal-like movement ... the animation is taken from the figures and put into the rocks ...'
As a child Glesson spent many hours by coastal rock pools at Terrigal, NSW, where rock formations and the sea fascinated him. They became a recurring motif in his paintings from his earliest work to the present.
