The Sober College Life Skills Infusion Program works with residents to teach and develop necessary life skills they will need to succeed during and after their stay.
Achievement in Life Skills is acquired through a combined practical and learning approach that focuses on teachable moments with staff and clients. It is within these moments that the individual strengths and weaknesses of every student is understood, coached and re-directed and/or supported.
Building a Foundation
Life Skills is defined as the ability to cope with stresses and challenges of daily life, especially skills in communication and literacy, decision-making, occupational requirements, problem-solving, time management and planning. These areas of focus can be broken up into two categories that are addressed during a client's stay at Sober College: Personal Life Skills and Relational Life Skills.
Personal Life Skills
Residents are responsible for taking care of their living space, and completing chores in all phases of the Sober College program. Many young people have never been taught, or required to do simple day-to-day tasks needed when living on their own. Sober College focuses on a variety of life skills to help strengthen clients in the everyday tasks surrounding being a young adult. For example Sober College educates their students in practical financial skills. Through a series of interactive workshops, online learning systems and group activities, students are brought to a better understanding of their own relationship with money and how it influences their decision making.
Additional areas include:
|Grocery Shopping
|Fiscal Accountability
|Basic Computer Skills
|Hygiene & Cleanliness
Relational Life Skills
Residents are called upon to learn how to handle stressful situations, multiple priorities and engage in appropriate relationships with other residents and with staff. Additionally, for many, the learning process teaches appropriate self-care techniques.
These areas include:
|Time Management
|Decision Making
|Problem Solving
|Critical Thinking
|Stress Management
|Anger Management
|Active Listening
|Emotional Regulation
|Team Work
|Conflict Resolution
Pathway for Success
As residents progress through the Sober College program they will have the opportunity to live in a number of unique residential environments. These include primary residential housing, apartment based living, sober living, community based independent apartment living, and aftercare support. Each residential level carries varied and unique life skills challenges that have the consistent theme and function of moving residents towards independence.

Tribe move to 2-0 in playoffs with second straight complete game
The Swift Current Indians got a complete game shutout from Sean Callegari as they took a commanding 2-0 series lead with a 5-0 win over the Weyburn Beavers Saturday.
The host Indians did not use their bullpen for a second straight game as Callegari allowed only two hits and two walks while striking out four over nine innings. The Richmond, BC native faced only 28 batters and threw only 111 pitches after finishing 5-0 in the regular season.
The Indians now lead the best-of-five series 2-0 and will look to close things out Sunday in Weyburn.
Eric Sams homered for a second straight game, a towering two-run shot in the second inning, and Liam Goodall also homered during a three-hit performance out of the nine-hole. Eros Modena had a pair of hits and is now batting .556 in the playoffs. Justin Lee added a double and a single and knocked home a run as the Indians got five hits out of their bottom two hitters in the line-up.
The Indians were second in the WMBL with a .348 batting average and a .421 on-base percentage, while leading the league with a .580 slugging percentage over the first two days of the playoffs as they got contributions from throughout their order.
"I think the key to success is being able to hit one through nine in the order," said Callegari. "The guys at the bottom are coming through and the guys at the top are coming through and there won't be a lot of luck for the rest of the teams we face in the playoffs."
"Everybody is doing great," added Sams. "We are squaring balls up real hard. Liam hit a nice home run and J-Lee hit it off the fence, which with a little more wind and it maybe goes out. A phenomenal job by everybody."
Sams had home runs from both side of the plate already in the playoffs. "Yeah I am just looking for a good pitch to hit and trying to square balls up and that's all I am trying to do," he explained.
The team's confidence level was very high after seven straight wins. "Yeah is it real high. I mean we have to stay level throughout it, but everyone is real confident in everything we do," said Sams.
"It is pretty high but we have to be careful not to be too cocky," cautioned Callegari. "Baseball is a funny game like that and can turn on you like a dime. Confidence is good but cockiness is not. Hopefully we can keep the confidence and keep it in check."

1. How does the RoamEO GPS dog collar work?
The RoamEO Pet Monitor System consists of a handheld receiver used by the pet owner and a GPS collar for your pet. Both pieces contain a GPS module and a radio. When powered on, the pet collar sends its GPS coordinates to the handheld receiver via its radio transmitter. The handheld receiver uses a special software program that takes the GPS coordinates from the collar, compares them to the GPS coordinates of the receiver, calculates the location of your pet in relation to you and displays this information on the LCD. New GPS coordinates from the collar are transmitted to the receiver every four seconds when your pet is moving, giving you real time location information.
2. Do I need to subscribe to any third party services to operate my RoamEO system?
No. The RoamEO system does not require any third party services for operation. We use our own radio circuit to transmit GPS data so there is no need for additional services.
3. How do I know if the collar will fit my dog?
The RoamEO GPS dog collar is adjustable and designed to fit on medium to large size dogs. The collar is made out of a flexible rubber material that is approximately one inch wide except for the battery compartment which is an inch and a half wide and slightly taller than the rest of the collar. The battery compartment is also made from a rigid plastic to protect the battery. The collar can expand from a smallest circumference of 12 inches up to 24 inches for larger breeds of dogs. The collar will most likely not fit well on smaller dogs (generally, those under 18-20 pounds) and is too large for cats.
4. I am concerned the collar will be too heavy for my dog.
The RoamEO GPS dog collar weighs only six ounces.
5. I have two dogs? Do I need to purchase two systems?
No. Each receiver is designed to monitor two RoamEO GPS dog collars at the same time.
6. Do I have to purchase batteries for my RoamEO system?
No. The RoamEO system comes with rechargeable lithium ion batteries and a charger. The batteries will recharge fully in less than three hours.
7. What type of battery life of should I expect from the RoamEO system?
The RoamEO GPS dog collar and receiver are designed for a minimum of 24 hours of battery life on a single charge under continuous use conditions.
8. How accurate is the GPS?
The typical accuracy of the receiver and collar will be 9 - 12 feet. The system may achieve much better accuracy if the WAAS satellites are available.
9. Will weather conditions affect the GPS accuracy of my system?
GPS accuracy is not affected by most weather conditions. GPS is sensitive to solar events that are unseen by the human eye, so it is possible the system experiences slow lock times during these events, which occur infrequently.
10. What is the size of the receiver and collar?
The receiver is 5 inches high, 2.5 inches wide and a little over 1 inch deep. It is designed to fit comfortably in your hand. The pet collar is approximately 1 inch wide and its length is adjustable to 24 inches.
11. My dog is outside all the time. What is the collar made of?
The GPS dog collar is made of a very flexible rubber material. It can be washed or cleaned without any harm to the electronics. It is designed to withstand the outdoor elements.
12. How far away can my dog be and still be located?
The range of the RoamEO Pet Monitor system is determined by the radio signal transmitted from the collar. All RoamEO systems are tested for one half mile of distance on our factory test course which effectively gives the system a minimum of 500 acres of coverage surrounding the location of the receiver. Less challenging terrain will allow the system to achieve greater range.

Active fighting may not have reached Maban County in South Sudan's Upper Nile State but the conflict that has engulfed the world's youngest nation is already having an impact.
12 May 2014
Fighting in South Sudan has disrupted livelihoods and forced hundreds of thousands of people to flee their homes. In the Lakes State community of Mingkaman, where WFP and its partners are providing assistance to more than 95,000 people, many of the internally displaced people (IDPs) are longing for a return to peace, to enable them to grow their own crops.
10 April 2014
Over a million South Sudanese have been displaced by the on-going conflict since December. WFP continues to provide food by any means possible to those in need. Here are nine key facts about the hunger crisis in South Sudan.
7 April 2014
With conflict continuing in South Sudan, WFP's Executive Director Ertharin Cousin and UN High Commissioner for Refugees António Guterres are calling on the international community to step up their humanitarian response. The two UN agency heads spoke with refugees, government officials and humanitarian workers during a visit last week to Ethiopia, which is registering one of the highest numbers of South Sudanese refugees.
3 April 2014
Ertharin Cousin, the Executive Director of the World Food Programme, has just finished a three-day visit to South Sudan and Ethiopia, where she traveled alongside the UN High Commissioner for Refugees to see first-hand the devastating impact of the South Sudan crisis. In her latest blog, the WFP chief talks about meeting people in the town of Nyal who have fled a deadly combination of violence and hunger.
1 April 2014
The ongoing conflict in South Sudan is uprooting families and paralysing the food markets they depend on. Among the thousands forced to flee their homes is Elizabeth Nyanchuit, who trekked for 10 hours with her children and neighbours to find safety. She is now living in a hut made of reeds in Ganyiel, a rural community in the country's northern Unity State.
22 March 2014
Tens of thousands of refugees from South Sudan are pouring into Ethiopia, fleeing the fighting in their homeland. By the end of the year, officials say Ethiopia could be hosting some 150,000 South Sudanese refugees. WFP is distributing food rations to refugees in camps and border crossings, along with special, nutrient-packed foods for the most vulnerable. But the sheer numbers of new arrivals are straining the resources of the humanitarian community.
19 February 2014
The crisis in South Sudan has forced more than 700,000 people to flee their homes in search of safety. The UN World Food Programme has so far provided food assistance for around 250,000 displaced people, and is working to extend more assistance to people we can reach outside UN peacekeeping bases, including those who are returning to devastated towns like Bentiu in Unity State.
11 February 2014
The dream of independence in the new country of South Sudan was shattered with the outbreak of fierce fighting in mid-December 2013. Tens of thousands of people fled to safety in neighbouring countries, particularly Uganda. WFP is providing food for the newly arriving refugees – people like Nyanwuor, a pregnant woman with three young children who tells her story below.
4 February 2014
Hundreds of thousands of South Sudanese have been displaced by conflict since mid-December. Now, as each side accuses the other of violating an agreement to cease hostilities and political negotiations continue, most of the displaced are still too frightened to return home. Meanwhile, several WFP warehouses and offices have been looted and damaged, with the loss of thousands of tons of badly needed food. Despite this, WFP is assisting a growing number of people every day.

Molly Messenger, head of product at Swoon, discusses how her team wanted to build a dating app that makes women feel safe.
Swoon is a mobile dating app focused on appealing to young professional women. http://swoonapp.com
The UpTake: Mobile dating apps are exploding in popularity. Just look at Tinder, which claims a spot among App Store's Top 25 lifestyle apps after launching only a year ago. San Francisco-based Swoon is hoping to differentiate itself with a female-first approach.
It's usually not difficult to get men to use a dating app.
"We don't have any problem getting men to use our app," says Molly Messenger, head of product at Swoon. "Men are on all the apps."
Women, on the other hand, tend to be more skeptical. That's where Messenger and her team at Swoon hope to stand out in a crowded online dating market that includes established players such as eHarmony and mobile upstarts like Tinder.
Swoon is a free mobile dating app that is geared toward making women comfortable not creeped out at the idea of using their smartphones to find dates. The app shares a lot in common with Tinder: users swipe through simple profiles linked to Facebook, giving each profile the digital thumbs thumbs up or thumbs down. If two users express interest in each other, they can chat within the app.
Swoon launched in March, but is just completing a major redesign to double down on its target demographic: professional women, ages 23 to 33 (Swoon's median age is 27). Messenger, who stopped by Upstart Business Journal offices on a trip to New York City to promote Swoon's redesign, said the app's feature set, name and even its color palette spins out of focus groups as well as lots of conversations with women in bars.
Swoon's small team is mostly women, including head of marketing, chief data scientist and head of design. Messenger heads up the app which is a part of Tagged, a San Francisco-based company that makes social discovery products.
"A lot of dating apps are designed by men," said Messenger, who hopes her team's diversity will stand out in Silicon Valley's heavily male tech sector.

By JEFF DONN, Associated Press
February 15, 2013
BOSTON — What happens to fish that swim in waters tainted by traces of drugs that people take? When it's an anti-anxiety drug, they become hyper, anti-social and aggressive, a study found. They even get the munchies.
It might sound funny, but it could threaten the fish population and upset the delicate dynamics of the marine environment, scientists say.
The findings, published online Thursday in the journal Science, add to the mounting evidence that minuscule amounts of medicines in rivers and streams can alter the biology and behavior of fish and other marine animals.
I think people are starting to understand that pharmaceuticals are environmental contaminants, said Dana Kolpin, a researcher for the U.S. Geological Survey who is familiar with the study.
Calling their results alarming, the Swedish researchers who did the study suspect the little drugged fish could become easier targets for bigger fish because they are more likely to venture alone into unfamiliar places.
Researchers around the world have been taking a close look at the effects of pharmaceuticals in extremely low concentrations, measured in parts per billion. Such drugs have turned up in waterways in Europe, the United States and elsewhere over the past decade.
They come mostly from humans and farm animals; the drugs pass through their bodies in unmetabolized form. These drug traces are then piped to water treatment plants, which are not designed to remove them from the cleaned water that flows back into streams and rivers.
The Associated Press first reported in 2008 that the drinking water of at least 51 million Americans carries low concentrations of many common drugs.
There are no mandatory U.S. limits on pharmaceuticals in waterways.

Textilus, an emerging word processing app for iOS, has received another feature-packed update.
Textilus is an iPad-only word processor designed for the editing and importing of documents in Rich Text Format or RTF.
In fact, the app used to go by the name RichText Edit. But perhaps realizing how generic, although appropriate, the name was, app developer Knowtilus decided to change it to the more brand-specific Textilus.
Well, a good app by any other name would perform as well. And Textilus aka RichText Edit is one such app.
Thanks to the updates it has received since its launch last July, Textilus continues its growth as a notable word processing app.
The app's latest update, for instance, is typical in that it brings a considerable number of new features:
- User defined paragraph line spacing. Double spacing included
- Copy and paste portions of a document without losing text formatting, even between different documents
- Sync automatically with Scrivener projects via Dropbox/Draft sharing folder
- TextExpander Touch support
- Quick document picker. Browse your files in a traditional tree-like folders and files window
- Set the writing direction in paragraphs with 2 new options in the Align menu: "Right to left" and "Left to Right"
- New "Dropbox Sync Now" option to sync the documents immediately
Also including a variety of improvements, the newly updated Textilus is currently available in the App Store for only $0.99.

Paul Brown Stadium
Adrian Peterson Hopes To Play In The Vikings Finale At Mall Of America Field
Reigning MVP Adrian Peterson expects to play in the final game ever at Mall of America Sunday against the Detroit Lions. The running back played in the Minnesota Vikings loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, but lasted just one offensive play into the second half. His backup, Toby Gerhart, is unlikely to play and cornerback Xavier Rhodes could return after missing two weeks. The Vikings had four players list as non-participants, seven as limited participants and four as full participants in Thursday's practice.
Vikings HC Frazier Is Not Going To Let His Job Status Affect The Team
Minnesota Vikings head coach Leslie Frazier talked with to the team about his job status Tuesday morning. He believes that could have been reason the team lost focus in last week's blow out loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. The Vikings will have a ceremony to say goodbye to Mall of America Field.
Minnesota Vikings Blown Out By The Cincinnati Bengals
The Minnesota Vikings were a minor inconvenience for the Cincinnati Bengals Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium. Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton tossed four touchdowns to lead the Bengals to a 42-14 victory. Dalton threw just 11 incompletions and was sacked twice to build a 136.5 quarterback rating. Cordarrelle Patterson was the lone bright spot for the Vikings with a 35.8 yard kick return average, 54 rushing yards and a touchdown.

Teen Mom
Corey Simms Gets New Tattoo Of His Twins' Names! (PHOTO)
Well, guys, it's about time. After years of living an ink-free life, Teen Mom 2's resident mumbler, Corey Simms, has tattooed his hot body in honor of his twin daughters, Aliannah and Aleeah. No, he didn't get giant portraits of their faces inked on his stomach like Teen Mom star, Amber Portwood, but he did get their names and the date of their birth (December 16, 2009) tatted on his bicep. Um, fabulous!
You might notice that Corey's tattoo reads "Ali Grace," which is slightly confusing considering that his daughters names are Ali and Aleeah. What gives?
"ALI Hope + Aleeah GRACE = ALI GRACE," Corey explained to fans on Twitter. "That's just what we always called them. Just like we call Aliannah Ali just something we do."
So, what does Corey's ex-wife, Teen Mom 2's Leah Messer, think of his tat? She's a huge fan — which makes sense considering that her own body is covered in ink! "theyll love it daddio," tweeted Leah to her sexy exy. "Did the future wifey miss @mirandabridget get one too??"
We're thrilled to see that Leah's being so supportive of Corey and his fiancé, Miranda Patterson. And in case you're wondering, Corey's girl Miranda sat out from getting inked this time around.
"It turned out beautiful! I just watched this time :)" the future Mrs. Simms tweeted.
What do you think of this Southern gent's new ink? Hit the comments and dish!

|Press Release
William and Claudia Walkenbach
July 9, 2003
A Missouri couple came forward Thursday to claim one-half of the $261.3-million US Powerball lottery jackpot and their spending plans were decidedly modest.
William Walkenbach, a production supervisor, said he wants to "finally get me a tractor with brakes." Claudia Walkenbach, a substitute teacher, said she'd buy a new refrigerator to replace the 30-year-old model sitting in their kitchen in Hermann, a town of about 2,600 on the Missouri River.
Neither purchase will make a dent in the two forms of payment the Walkenbachs can choose: $130.6 million in 30 annual instalments of $4.3 million, or a lump sum payment of $73.6 million. Both figures are before taxes.
But as Bill Walkenbach, 53, said Thursday: "It hasn't sunk in yet."
The couple bought their jackpot winning ticket, one of two sold in the United States, on Wednesday at the Hermann Fuel Mart in Hermann,
Claudia, 52, had $5 left after buying a copy of the Hermann Advertiser-Courier newspaper and with the change snatched up five tickets with computer-selected numbers.
The numbers in Wednesday night's drawing were 19-21-26-31-51 and Powerball 40.

As a recent graduate of East Texas Baptist University, I am honored to serve this department that has invested in the past four years of my life. My interest in the biological sciences started in high school. By senior year, it had molded into a desire to pursue a career in medicine. During my undergraduate study, I was a member of the Texas Academy of Science and attended the 2011 annual conference in Austin. I was also a student-athlete holding positions on the football team as well as in cheerleading. My career aspirations include earning a degree in osteopathic medicine and providing medicine oversees to those who do not have adequate access to such supplies. If there is one thing that the Lord has shown me, it is that patient endurance builds character, develops wisdom, and provides joy. James 1:2-4 is a verse that I draw near to when times get rough (and especially when I'm in medical school!).
"Dear brothers and sisters when troubles come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing." James 1:2-4

Group of government advisers endorses lung cancer screening for the first time, but not for everyone
Annual CT scans proposed for certain candidates
An influential group of government advisers has endorsed lung cancer screening for the first time - but not for everybody. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force is proposing annual CT scans, a type of X-ray, for certain current and former smokers.
To be considered for screening, the task force says people should:
-Be ages 55 through 79.
-Have smoked a pack of cigarettes a day for 30 years or the equivalent, such as two packs a day for 15 years.
People who should not be screened include:
-Those younger than 55 or older than 79.
-Those who smoked less or less often than those described above.
-Those who quit smoking 15 or more years ago.
-Those too sick or frail to withstand treatment for lung cancer.

Fox Business Exclusive: Jamie Dimon Talks Politics, Regulation and His Legacy at JPMorgan
Written By Fox Business Network's Charlie Gasparino
After Jamie Dimon was ousted at Citigroup (C: 29.90, +0.05, +0.17%) back in 1998, people treated him like a "leper", he tells the Fox Business Network in a wide ranging, exclusive interview.
But it wasn't long before the man who fired him, former CEO Sandy Weill, was calling Dimon on the telephone to complain about how he was poaching former Citigroup executives as he slowly but surely built what is now the nation's largest and most profitable banks, JPMorgan Chase (JPM: 37.66, 0.00, 0.00%).
Citigroup would become one of the world's most troubled banks follow Dimon's departure, mired in scandal and heavy risk taking that forced the federal government to infuse hundreds of billions of dollar in direct and indirect aid to prevent the bank's collapse during the 2008 financial crisis.
Dimon, meanwhile, would steer JPMorgan clear of much of the risk taking that doomed his old firm and other large banks, and emerge as the most successful banker of his generation.
Today, he discusses with the FOX Business Network the state of the banking industry, the impact of new global banking regulations on the financial industry and the economy, his disagreement with the Obama Administration and how taking up boxing when he was out of work helped him re-tool his career.
Dimon, 55, also discusses life after JPMorgan, and how long he plans to stay with the firm.
Here's a hint: If he has his way, he isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

I am currently living in Lancaster with my wife and our cat Rosie. I have just published a book about some of the rock concerts I went to between 1981 and 1999 in the UK.
Up until March this year I was a volunteer presenter on Diversity 103.5FM but sadly the station was shut down. So now I am broadcasting on the internet station Acoustic Spectrum and I upload the shows to Mixcloud - see the links on my web site.
I'm also a musician and have got some songs on Soundcloud. They're mainly covers but there are a few original compositions too.
Review by:
Reza Mills
on July 22, 2012 :
Writing this is somewhat tricky as I have to try and remain objective as Colin is a good buddy and it could appear that I'm being biased. So here is my attempt at being objective.
Its' clear that Colin is a music fan who adores music no matter the genre. He doesn't give 2 hoots about whether its' trendy or hip. So what you get is a large variety of music ranging from the likes of The Manic Street Preachers, The Stranglers and Jane's Addiction to Elton John, Queen and Thin Lizzy.
Colin has a remarkable memory, I barely remember what I had for breakfast yesterday. How he manages with a fair degree of accuracy to pinpoint what row he was sitting in at The Stranglers in 1983 is beyond me. The gigs have a roughly chronological sequence, starting with the first gig Sky in '81 all the way to Hugh Cornwell in 2000. All this is interspersed with what Colin was doing in his life at the time, which gives it an added personal touch.
The book is written in a down to earth style that eschews the pretentious philosophical musings of your average rock scribe ala Paul Morley, Greil Marcus et al. He doesn't treat each and every gig as some sort of grandiose statement on the condition of man. That's what makes this book so relatable, you feel like you're actually there. At least I did. All in all I would say this is a very well researched and interesting first novel by the delightful young Mr Bertram.

Confirmed: Glee's Newest Guest Star Is Real Housewives' NeNe Leakes!
We've been hearing rumors for weeks, but the news is now official: Real Housewives of Atlanta star NeNe Leakes will be the newest guest star on Glee.
Glee darlings Lea Michele (Rachel) and Chris Colfer (Kurt) confirmed the news during the season finale of Bravo's Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Monday, December 19.
Lea and Chris confirmed what we'd heard already, that NeNe will play a swim coach named Roz Washington in an upcoming Season 3 episode.
So yes, she will be spending a lot of time with Sam (Chord Overstreet) after he joins the synchronized swim team in an effort to win back his ex-girlfriend Mercedes (Amber Riley).
But just how long will NeNe's Glee stint last? From what we've heard, she'll be in both the show's Grease-themed episode, January 17th's "Yes/No," and the Michael Jackson tribute episode set to air January 24.
And if things go well? We might get to see even more NeNe on Glee! The length of her arc is still up in the air right now, but judging from the way Chris and Lea were gushing about her to Andy Cohen tonight… we'd say she's already got quite a few fans on set.

Chapel Ridge FarmRead MoreTraining riders and horses is a family affair at Chapel Ridge Farm, where members of the Bennett family draw from more than 75 years of combined equestrian boarding, training, showing, and sales experience. Owner and head trainer Meagan Bennett takes the reins of each riding class, teaching students how to improve their horsemanship, from basic horse care to fine-tuning their jumping skills for AA competitions. While Meagan is out with students, her mother and one-time state equestrian team coach, Linda Bennett, handles day-to-day operations at the farm. Tom Bennett, Meagan's father, also helps out and is often available to help transport horses between Chapel Ridge Farm and other equestrian centers to save steeds the aggravation of hitchhiking without thumbs.240 Ever After Ln.Apex, NC US

Sustainable design decisions and costs in research laboratoriesAugust 15, 2011 8:17 am | by Taylor R. Boyd, John D. Neilson, and Ellen Sisle, KlingStubbins | Articles | Comments
It is probably safe to say that most people would not advocate deliberately damaging the environment, especially if there is no advantage in doing so. But profit and value also play a role in many of the choices we have to make. If the design solutions we advocate to help preserve the natural world are not financially feasible, they are not likely to be implemented. We have to evaluate what our ideas will cost, both initially and in the long term, as well as how well they will work.
EPA ruling may impact recyclable materialsJune 14, 2010 9:45 am | News | Comments

Trash talk: Greener ways of handling laboratory waste streamsDecember 29, 2008 11:14 am | by Kenneth A. Kornberg, AIA | Articles | Comments
Although the work done in the lab is no more dangerous or toxic than it was 40 years ago, regulatory changes have created huge increases in transportation, materials, and energy costs. The consequence is a significant increase in the carbon footprint for the standard lab building, a reduction in productivity and space efficiency, and in many cases a decrease in the safety of the research environment.

He jacked another and another, Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder
Set some R & B over the track for "Deep Cover" (187!)
from Black Star – Children's Story Lyrics on Genius
Two staples of the "Bad Boy" production style that Puffy introduced (and had huge success with) in the mid-90s.
Wholesale jacking of mainstream pop/soul hits instead of digging in the crates. The Diana Ross samples in "Mo Money Mo Problems and "Cold Rock A Party" are prime examples.
Using Hip Hop beats as the foundation for R&B songs. See
Total's "No One Else" (based on BDP's "South Bronx") or Case's "Touch Me Tease Me" (based on Schoolly's "PSK") for examples.
This isn't a shot at Dre. Mos is using "Deep Cover" as an example of the kind of track that might be jacked for an R&B record.

Chandni Chowk To China, the first ever Bollywood Kungfu comedy takes you on a madcap Journey from the by-lanes of Chandni Chowk in Delhi, to Shanghai, the Great Wall and rural China, marrying in its wake hilarious gags, breathtaking action, spectacular locations, and heart stirring emotions. Our protagonist Sidhu (Akshay Kumar) is the lowest on the totem pole, cutting vegetables at a roadside food stall in Chandni Chowk in Delhi. He longs to escape his dreary existence and looks for shortcuts- with astrologers, tarot readers and fake fakirs - believing anything except himself, despite his father figure Dada's (Mithun Chakraborty) best efforts. His redeeming moment arrives when two strangers from China claim him as a reincarnation of a war hero in the past and takes him to China. Sidhu now dreams of wine, women, and a princely existence in foreign lands. Thanks to the devious translator, a conman by the name Chopstick (Ranvir Shorey), little does he know that he is being taken to the Promised Land to rid the Chinese village of the vicious smuggler Hojo (Gordon Liu)! Therefore, Sidhu blissfully sets forth to China with Chopstick who instigates dreams of a delicious future and forgets to reveal the perils, which await him. Along the way, he meets Sakhi (Deepika Padukone), Ms. Tele Shoppers Media (Ms. TSM) who has embarked on a journey to pay homage to the land of her birth and her dead father and twin.

Lebanon's Arabic press digest.
Following are summaries of some of the main stories in a selection of Lebanese newspapers Wednesday. The Daily Star cannot vouch for the accuracy of these reports.
Hezbollah imposed a solution to the EDL crisis in order to extend the life of the government, which teeters on the verge of collapse following street [protests]
After the crisis of Electricite Du Liban contract workers reached its peak threatening Lebanon with a blackout and the government with collapse, and since this government is a priority for Hezbollah, the [Shiite] party put all its weight into resolving the crisis.
However, the resolution, which is expected to be announced in the next 48 hours if no problems pop up, does not mean that the relationship between the "allies" will return to normal. Something has been broken and will prove difficult to restore.
Meanwhile, the Cabinet discussed 55 of 123 articles in a draft electoral law Tuesday that was presented by Interior Minister Marwan Charbel.
EDL crisis over: fun ends
After the EDL contract workers' crisis intensified and nearly killed the political alliance between the majority forces in the Cabinet, mediators succeeded Tuesday in finding a solution based on MP Suleiman Franjieh's initiative.
Under the deal, Energy Minister Gebran Bassil got an amended version of the law to make EDL contract workers full-timers as well as the opening of the doors to EDL headquarters, but not according to all his [specifications].
The Lebanese went to bed Monday to a threat by EDL's Board of Directors that Lebanon faced a total blackout. However, they woke up Wednesday to optimism regarding a solution to the crisis.
As negotiations continued until well after midnight, most of the parties involved in the talks confirmed that an agreement had been reached on nearly all the points associated with the dispute.
Arguments continued over one item: Should contract workers end their sit-in before guarantees they will receive their salary arrears, or should they be given the guarantees before ending their sit-in?
In any case, the crisis is over, or nearing an end. The only loser is the team of the political majority, which distracted itself for weeks with a battle while the country sank into security, social, economic and financial crises amid a major crisis in the region and in Syria.
EDL "contract workers" solution stuck ... Bickering in Cabinet over electoral districts
Lebanon without electricity and Ashrafieh without water
The Lebanese celebrate Army Day today as Energy Minister Gebran Bassil used his cunning to "punish" Ashrafieh by depriving its citizens of water as an "intimidation" [tactic] after having plunged the capital, Beirut, into darkness for two days.
Bassil seems to be considering using the same method, which is a precedent, across other regions as blackmail and in order to improve the conditions for negotiation over the EDL contract workers' issue, which remains irresolvable.
Latest escalation: [Lebanese] hostages' families to the airport?
Future Movement does not back Merhebi in his attack on Army
In 48 hours' time, the families of Lebanese hostages [kidnapped in Syria] will join the EDL contract workers in posing a new threat: this time not only will they shut down the airport road, but the airport itself.
The families of the 11 captives in Syria threatened Tuesday to step up their actions unless there is a positive development that leads to the release of the hostages.
Sheikh Abbas Zogheib, who was tasked by the Higher Shiite Council with following up on the Lebanese hostages' case, told An-Nahar that it is "unacceptable that the Lebanese government has not stepped in to release the kidnapped [men] 72 days after their abduction and after one kidnapper said via television stations that no one was engaged in any negotiations with him."

FinishingJanuary 12, 2007
I am frustrated. I am a good completer-of-things. I get things done. I follow through. Why, then, why can't I finish a book?
I would like to finish writing a book. There. That's all I'm thinking this morning. The long novel, the 500+ page one, is within fifty pages of being done. Yes, I'm sure of it. The middle book, that's within a hundred pages. The Nanowrimo romance, that's within perhaps twenty or thirty pages of completion.
I know, of course, that these are rough drafts. First drafts. They can be changed, ripped apart entirely. I can get the ending done and redo it later. Why don't I just do it, then? Aargh.
I won Nanowrimo, which means that I wrote 50,000 words in November. See? Completion, of a sort. But the book wants to be about 75,000 words, though, which is why it isn't Done.
And so instead of sitting down daily to finish things up, I start things like Runagogo to distract myself. Wonderful, that thing has turned out to be. Scout was right to encourage the idea to have its own website. Now I'm hooked on watching it, watching people post. I'm spending time running. It's a Project, and I adore projects. I need projects.
I just want my project to be writing, you know? I'm so easily distracted by shiny things or timesaving devices or the internet or knit-design ideas or chocolate, and it's just so hard to sit down and write sometimes.
Also, I'm whiny. ONE MORE NIGHT and I'm done with midnight shift, possibly FOREVER. That is something to celebrate. Instead, I'm unreasonably irritated with my coworkers, with the temperature, with my brainwaves. My face is itchy from dryness. I want to brush my teeth. I would like to eat ice cream but I have none. I had the WORST RUN EVER today.
I have the mean reds. They're not bad, and they'll pass, but I will certainly be glad to get home and go to bed. I don't even dare knit -- I'll screw something up, and how.
Perhaps yogurt with granola will help. I'll give it a shot.

Crew wave to onshore spectators as the second Astute class submarine Ambush sets sail to begin sea trials with the UK Royal Navy, from BAE Systems in Barrow-in-Furness September 15, 2012. REUTERS/Ken Lennox/BAE Sytems/Handout
LONDON: Britain's Royal Navy says it is dropping the traditional sailors' toast to "our wives and sweethearts," replacing the timeworn language with a gender-neutral reference to "our families."
In a statement, the military said the Saturday night toast was being updated to "reflect cultural changes" in the navy, which has included female sailors for more than two decades.
The practice of toasting "our wives and sweethearts" - occasionally followed with a bawdy "May they never meet!" - has long been a part of naval culture and is one of the seven traditional toasts delivered over dinner for each day of the week.
The Tuesday night toast to "our men" has also been updated to "our sailors," according to the statement released Saturday.

From Students
Maegan honestly cares about every student she teaches. She makes the highest effort to personalize her teaching style to cater to every student's strengths and weaknesses. After spending 4 years at Furman, I have never met a teacher as caring, adaptive, and passionate as Maegan.
Stephen Howard
Student in Acting I, Acting II, Actor's Voice, Creative Dramatics, and Movement
Furman University
Maegan is so encouraging, provides constructive criticism, challenges us to do our best and tests our creative limits. She is available for conferences and questions, gives great feedback, and demonstrates a desire to see us succeed. She conducts the class in a fun and open manner.
Katelyn Cormack
Student in Acting I
Furman University
…I really enjoyed watching you give direction to everyone, and watching how they responded to it. I loved seeing what exercises you would assign to each person…That is a real gift you have, to know what will help people most as far as understanding their characters…
Rebecca Joyner
Student in Beginning Acting
University of Alabama
I think that the TA teaching a class can really 'make it or break it' so to speak. Because of your enthusiasm and laid back personality as a TA in intro to theater, it encouraged me to take the intro to acting class. I'm not pursuing a career in theater or anything like that, but I enjoy the classes and I think that has a lot to do with a good foundation and a good TA. So thank you for spending your time helping us out…
Robert Crawford
Student in Intro to Theatre, Beginning Acting, and Movement II
University of Alabama
My acting has gotten better than what it was in the beginning of the semester. I feel that I have made a lot of progress and a lot of changes. This is due to the many activities and exercises that our motivating teacher, who never gave up on ANYONE, Maegan McNerney. She is truly an inspiration and she has taught me, and I'm pretty sure everyone else, a lot…My teacher was down to earth and she was always willing to work with you.
Nialah Wiggins
Student in Beginning Acting
University of Alabama
Maegan has definitely done her part to ensure that we have gotten what we can from this class. She has…always been available outside of class for help and she put a lot of energy and effort into teaching this class. She has also expected more from us than mediocre work or performance…
Courtney Green
Student in Beginning Acting
University of Alabama
…being in Acting I with Maegan, I could not have asked for a better teacher. Maegan was what I needed to help me with my insecurities and fears…it does help to have someone that is cheery and positive and uplifts me and knows exactly how to [critique] me.
Rachel Hammonds
Student in Acting I
University of Alabama
From Parents
…I wanted to tell you that I thought the play you directed [Antigone] was absolutely riveting! You have quite an eye. I thought [Choragos] and [Antigone] were superb. Nice movement and staging. The story was really intense and you made it easy for an audience to watch such an 'in your face' story. Really a great job.
Kate Whittley
Parent of Conservatory Student
California Theatre Center
What is amazing is that in spite of a long day, you, Adam, and other CTC [California Theatre Center] members make an extraordinary impact on the [students] giving your best at all times.
Jay Krishnan
Parent of Conservatory Student
California Theatre Center
Emma and I got the last tickets to the show [The Matchmaker] last night and were so glad we did. You were fantastic…What a treat for the kids to see, too. Thank you for being such a great role model for the girls, in particular – organized, hard-working, and very creative…nice combo, indeed! CTC [California Theatre Center] is very fortunate to have you heading up Education.

HASKELL COUNTY, Kan. Forty-nine years ago, Ashley Yosts grandfather sank a well deep into a half-mile square of rich Kansas farmland. He struck an artery of water so prodigious that he could pump 1,600 gallons to the surface every minute.
Last year, Mr. Yost was coaxing just 300 gallons from the earth, and pumping up sand in order to do it. By harvest time, the grit had robbed him of $20,000 worth of pumps and any hope of returning to the bumper harvests of years past.

Multiple access protocols and control mechanisms are called media access control (MAC) for Data links, which is provided by the Data Link Layer in the OSI model and the Link Layer of the TCP/IP model.
A multiple access method is based on a multiplex method, that allows several data streams or signals to share the same communication channel or physical media. Multiplexing is provided by the Physical Layer. Note that multiplexing also may be used in full-duplex point-to-point communication between nodes in a switched network, which should not be considered as multiple access.
