Accomplice to a Crime
Sometimes the crime is severe, and sometimes it is inconsequential. The common thread, is that people need to be aware of the consequences of their actions at all times. This means that anything you posses, can and will be used against you if you have acquaintances that don't uphold the law.
A sad story, but a great example, the New York Times reported on a man who borrowed his car to a friend who drove to a house and killed a woman during a botched drug deal. The man who owned the car, because of a United States law, is held responsible for this murder. He is an accomplice.
This is serious. This Florida man will serve life for allowing a friend to borrow his car. Did he know that his friend would kill someone that night? No, and neither did the man who committed murder, but this doesn't clear either of their records.
On a less serious note, Youtube has foiled two other criminals in China who abused products at work and posted a video of their mishaps on the Internet video site. The camera man knew exactly what he was doing, and even premeditatedly put the video on the Internet where almost 50,000 people watched it, including the restaurant's owners. This smells of an accomplice to crime. The first case does not.
This issue wares on me every weekend intertwining responsibility and partying. Because of U.S. statutes, I am responsible of the actions of anyone who I give alcohol to. Minors or adults, if someone gets a drink from me, I am responsible for the murders and suicides-on the more grave end-to the traffic violations they commit.
Who is at fault in these situations? Who is to blame?
That is a scary thought. I wo

Netlogon incorrectly registers SRV records in DNS for Windows XP-based clients
Article ID: 825675 - View products that this article applies to.
This article has been archived. It is offered "as is" and will no longer be updated.
On This Page
A Microsoft Windows XP-based client may randomly register service (SRV) records in the Domain Name System (DNS) as if the computer is a new domain controller in the domain. Because of this, other computers on the network may experience connectivity problems. For example, computers may not be able to authenticate to the domain. When the other computers on the network query for a domain controller, the Windows XP-based computer is returned together with the actual domain controllers. Connectivity problems may be most prevalent when the Windows XP-based computer that has registered SRV records is shut down.
This problem occurs because Netlogon incorrectly registers the SRV records if the computer is shut down while Netlogon is initializing. A Windows XP-based computer is more likely to experience this issue when the following conditions are true:

Combat engineers conduct demolition training
DVIDS | Jul 05 2013
MARINE CORPS BASE CAMP PENDLETON, CALIF. (June 21, 2013) - Marines serving with Bravo Company, 1st Combat Engineer Battalion, conducted demolitions training with several types of explosives at range 108, June 19.
The training was conducted to teach junior Marines how to effectively demolish heavily armored vehicles, defensive obstacles, bridges and how to handle the explosives safely.
The biggest benefit was the hands on training the Marines received, said Cpl Heracio Borrego, a combat engineer serving with Bravo Company.
"We're dealing with explosives and material that civilians who work with demolitions don't even get their hands-on," said Borrego. "So, it's going to be a huge plus for us as Marines to have that knowledge to help us out in the future."
The Marines started the training with a 40-pound shape charge, said Borrego, a native of Romeo, Colo.
"That charge is used in war environments to blow up armored vehicles and buildings," he said. "It's placed in a non-mobile position and once it's detonated, it creates a lot of devastation."
Many of the explosives were unfamiliar to the junior Marines, said 1stLt Mitchell Leestma, a platoon commander serving with the company.
"We don't get to use these demolitions as much," said Leestma, a native of Eden Prairie, Minn. "Most of these guys haven't seen these types of charges since they were in the schoolhouse. It gave us a great opportunity to come out here in more of a learning environment instead of a tactical environment and employ those demolitions."
It allowed the Marines to see what these charges actually do, what their purpose is in the fleet, what their purpose is in combat and how to employ them effectively, Leestma said. The engineers also used C4, trinitrotoluene, commonly known as TNT, and dynamite, Borrego said.
"Those are very common to us," said Borrego. "They can be used for whatever we need and they're also good breaching explosives. They can be used on doorways and creating nonmanufactured charges.
Even though it takes a lot of hard work, effort and planning, the Marines were rewarded with seeing the success of each explosive they employed.
The best part of working as a division engineer is seeing that split second of the explosion and to this day, I'm not tired of seeing that," said Borrego. "We're engineers and we love what we do.

The World's Tiniest Comic Strip, and Other News
May 15, 2014 | by Dan Piepenbring
- St. Marks Bookshop has signed a lease on a new location: 136 East Third Street, near Avenue A. The plan is to move sometime this fall; "the owners are exploring a transition to nonprofit status."
- Philip Roth gave a talk at Yaddo yesterday—it will probably be his last. "After he gave a reading at Manhattan's 92nd Street Y, Roth insisted that it was 'absolutely the last appearance' … Roth did not refer to those remarks on Wednesday. But when the Associated Press emailed his literary agent, Andrew Wylie, and asked whether Roth had given his last public talk, Wylie responded, 'That's his last.'"
- The smallest comic strip in the world has been laser-etched onto a single strand of human hair.
- A thought on International Conscientious Objectors' day: "It occurred to me that conscientious objectors are underrepresented in the literature of war. There are many references to conscience: to soldiers who signed up but later doubted the rightness of the cause and to deserters, to those who were, by our standards, wrongly accused of cowardice. But references to actual conchies, as they were (not always affectionately) known, are thin on the ground."
- How does a work of art come to be considered great? The latest research in canon formation suggests that the "mere-exposure effect" and cumulative advantage play a larger role than intrinsic quality.
- To the NSA's growing list of offenses, we can now add "hideously outmoded graphic design, especially in PowerPoint presentations."
In My Father's Kitchen
November 15, 2011 | by Chris Wallace
I used to joke that I have daddy issues with Jacques Pépin, because it was he who really raised me. My parents divorced when I was a year old and, until I was thirteen, they split custody in every conceivable way. It was my father's habit to write in the mornings and watch his favorite cooking shows in the afternoon, with a drink, while preparing dinner. On the days I was with him, I watched too. Usually it was Julia Child, or the Frugal Gourmet; later it was Jacques, and then Jacques and Julia. Recipes and technique were like my nursery rhymes and I grew up—"spoiled rotten," my dad would say—only ever eating perfect pie crust. By the time I was eleven, my knife skills were impeccable, my Caesar salad the best ever (in my family, hyperbole is hereditary). When my mother invited my high school girlfriend and her parents for dinner I served a traditional osso buco and risotto Milanese. It was a success—my culinary coming out party—and one in which my father, who felt he deserved the credit, took particular pride.
As a Depression baby, my father was raised by a generation of people who wouldn't utter a sound if their hair were on fire. He spent most of his childhood in the kitchen, with the family cook, because he was afraid to go anywhere else in the house. The Wallaces do their suffering in silence. My father's father, David Frederick Wallace Sr.—Fred, he was called—went off on drinking benders, leaving the family for days at a time. He died of liver failure at just fifty-seven. Fred's father committed suicide and the family never spoke of it. The thought of my own father having a personal conversation with his mother, or with his grandmother, whom everyone called the Dragonlady, seems impossible—with his Aunt Bess or his uncle, President Harry Truman, outrageous.

Introduction of Tax Havens: Part 1.
When someone says tax havens or offshore banking, the first thought that pops into mind is illegal financial transactions and money laundering, followed very closely by dons and mafia heads. These are just stereotypes promoted by the media and moviemakers , but then one might ask, what exactly is a tax haven? Simply put, a tax haven is an offshore jurisdiction with lower tax rates, which attracts corporations to register with them as legal entities and benefit from lower tax rates of zero tax rates on certain types of income.
As tax havens as a term, sometimes have negative connotations, the emerging trend is to call them corporate tax havens. The nomenclature is different but the purpose is the same. It is an offshore financial center which has tax friendly legislature, that allows companies registered within it to operate at greater profits by paying lower or zero taxes.
Unlike common misconceptions not all offshore corporate tax havens are glamorous islands with bikini clad babes! Yes quite a few of them are islands in warm locations but there are other locations like Delaware in USA and Isle of Man which are considered to be tax havens too. These offshore financial centers offer comparable levels of tax to more exotic offshore locations and, in some cases, offer far greater benefits. Unsurprisingly, the Offshore Financial Centers friendly to corporate also include the famous tax havens of the Cayman Islands and Bermuda.
Why would a country want to declare itself as a tax haven? Because by offering a number of tax benefits enticing corporations to register in their domicile, the government of the country benefits from increased local employment and naturally taxation of the employees upon their income, which would not have occurred otherwise.
Despite being seen by the OECD as 'harmful to the global economy', one could argue that offshore tax havens actually promote business and revenue. An illustrative example would be :If a company is just breaking even, it is unlikely to prosper and grow. The business owner may well give the business up and move on to a different venture. If the company is domiciled in a corporate tax haven, then the owners have to pay less tax. This makes the business substantially more viable and more likely to grow and develop and become a prosperous business in time. Therefore, it could be argued that tax havens and corporate offshore financial centers actually help businesses to keep making money and employing staff and, consequently, becoming successful.

There comes a time when it seems like you have photos coming out of everywhere, currently my poor little mac has over 400gb of flies in the photos folder… yeah thats a little scary… especially since from about 2010 (maybe 2011) onwards i have been incredibly slack in organising them… and theres probably 50% more photos since then… (that makes me wanna cry). So what does one do when they have soooooo many of these precious digital images… well firstly – BACK THEM THINGS UP!! ideally in more than one location! – I say this after personal experience… back in 2009 we lost almost 6-12 months worth of photos after the external HDD they were all on became corrupt and "ate" a heap of photos – up until that 6-12 months mark before this were all also backed up on dvds/cd roms… so losing them on the HDD wasn't the end of the world – it was the year of tiny baby William that we lost that was tragic – thankfully I think I have been able to selvage heaps from the internet world (mainly Facebook) but I'm sure there are still heaps missing and as a result the HDD has been sitting dormant waiting for the day that we either found a caring soul to retrieve what they can from the drive or find the $$ to pay someone to do it…
Sadly since then I have been really really naughty – and not backed up photos… Thankfully I have been extremely lucky (knock on wood) and had no dramas since… However that being said the last few months it has weighed on my mind a lot so I have recently backed up that 400+gb of photos on a temporary drive while I save to get 2x external hdd's that I wish to store them on.
So back to the double back up idea, well having a second hdd means if one fails then we have the second one still (if 2 fail then we are up shit creek), one I have plans of having in a spot that I can grab and run with it, and the other goes in the fireproof safe. These are not regular access drive, souly back up drives.
So ideas on how to organise your files… Well that's really up to each individual and how each person can function, for me once upon a time sorting into year folders then into monthly folders plus special events folders worked great, however recently,I have discovered that (either my memory is on the blink or???) that trying to remember what month a certain photo I'm looking for was taken is next to impossible and after flicking thru several folders it gets told really quickly… So my next mission is to reorganise them all… This of course won't happen overnight… So leave it with me… Lol
However I have been a looking, and I have found a few different types of cataloging your photos:
This is basically how I have organised my photos in the past, it works great at if if you know when a photo was taken and you can go straight to the year, then month (and if your that little bit more insane you could even go weekly!! – actually photos from homeschooling could be done like this I guess…. Hummm….)
Year-Month Photo organising example
Organising Digital Photos like the pros do…
This blog has a great post on sorting all your photos (for windows based users).
On top of the stock standard Windows Explorer & Finder for file organisation, you can get a number of 3rd party photo cataloging programs/apps such as iPhoto, Lightroom, Elements … But for me personally I prefer to stick to the basics, the stock standard built in program, in my case Finder on my Mac, my thinking is, if my files are in finder or windows explorer they will be compatible with future upgrades and there is no risk of the program going out of date and having to start over again!
So upon thinking and planning (I may have issues here and over think things… You'll learn that soon enough), I have decided on a file structure for my Pictures folder:
Now I just need to find some time to sort through this mess on my computer!!

Gay-Bashing at the Polls
In their hunger to take back the White House, the Jerry Falwells and the Pat Robertsons have swallowed the mellow prose of Texas scripted for them by George W.'s handlers--but at the state level, the antigay hate campaigns of the Christian right are picking up steam. "In 2000 there have been and are more gay-bashing initiatives on the ballot than ever before," points out David Fleischer, the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force organizer for state and local politics.
In Nevada, an amendment to the state Constitution banning same-sex marriage, backed by the Southern Baptists (who have pledged $1 million to pass it) and the Mormon Church, won 60 percent approval in the latest polls. In Nebraska, an even worse measure bans civil unions and even legal status for domestic partnerships, which threatens benefits afforded to same-sex couples by private companies doing business there (like Qwest and Wells Fargo). In Maine, the Christian Civic League (a Gary Bauer spinoff) and the Christian Coalition are spending heavily to defeat ratification of a gay civil rights law already passed by the legislature. The progay forces are woefully underfunded in all three states.
But the most critical battle is in Oregon, which has seen forty antigay initiatives (four statewide, the rest local) in the past twelve years. This year's Measure 9 is a viciously broad version of the "no promo homo" amendments Jesse Helms has been trying to pass in Washington for years: It bans public school "instruction of behaviors relating to homosexuality and bisexuality...that encourages, promotes or sanctions such behavior." Sponsored by professional antigay crusader Lon Mabon and his Oregon Citizens Alliance--who were behind the previous referendums--this thought-police measure would have a devastating effect on the ability of the state's schools and colleges to teach about HIV or antigay discrimination and menaces the livelihood of openly gay teachers. Mabon makes it quite clear: He has said that the measure is designed to defund "any place that there is a cultural diversity program or multiculturalism or AIDS education [in which] homosexuality is presented as being normal and acceptable.... Any AIDS education like what occurred at Portland State University or at the local level could not be done. Any speakers that come in, if they are homosexuals, they could not stand up in front of a class or an assembly and talk about a pro-homosexual lifestyle."
Mabon-sponsored referendums aimed at banning civil rights laws protecting gays were defeated in 1992 and 1994, but it will not be so easy this time. In previous years the gay-bashing measures were the only controversial ones on the ballot, and a broad-based progressive coalition fought back effectively; this year, there are twenty-six different ballot questions, and the official guide mailed to every voter is 400 pages, the size of a telephone book. Moreover, there are seven other initiatives of major concern to progressives: two antilabor "paycheck protection" measures; three on tax and budget cutting; and two anti-environmental proposals.
"It's very shrewd of the right wing," says Paddy McGuire, who ran the Clinton campaign in Oregon in 1992 and 1996 and is now chief of staff to the secretary of state. "For $100,000 you can put damn well anything on the ballot--9 is the only one of these measures where signatures were mostly gotten by volunteers, while the others were gathered by paid workers at $1.50 a signature. It's going to take around a million bucks to defeat each one of them--that's $5 to $6 million we won't spend to elect progressives to office." The strategy to sap progressive energies through referendums was the brainchild of Bill Sizemore, the 1998 Republican candidate for governor. Sizemore has turned his strategy into a lucrative business: He runs Oregon Taxpayers United--which is funded by wealthy GOP conservatives and the oldtime timber barons and fronts for the ballot measures--and on the side he runs a signature-collection firm that rakes it in for petition drives.
"We're stretched thin," worries Josh Kardon, Oregon Senator Ron Wyden's chief of staff. "The governor [liberal Democrat John Kitzhaber] is tied up fighting off the two measures aimed at his budget. Wyden's tied up trying to raise money for state legislative races--we're in spitting distance of taking back one or both houses. Because we're so diluted, trying to explain in a short time why Measure 9 is bad for kids is going to be tough."
All the more so because "we have less than half the staff the campaign that defeated the 1994 antigay referendum had, when they spent $1.7 million," says No on 9 campaign manager Kathleen Sullivan; by mid-September the group had raised only $300,000. Both the Christian Coalition and the Family Research Council are putting major resources into 9's passage. The No campaign does have strong support from the PTA as well as the state AFL-CIO, whose president, Tim Nesbitt, points to "an alliance between Lon Mabon and paycheck protection, which the OCA has endorsed." As the state's leading Democratic pollster, Lisa Grove, points out, "Passage of 9 would have implications beyond Oregon--if they can win here, they'll try it elsewhere." Money for TV ads is desperately needed. To contribute, make out checks to: No on 9, PO Box 40625, Portland, OR 97240; or log on at www.noon9.org.

Titus Andronicus at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre
Titus Andronicus, Shakespeare's tale of violent and bloody revenge, returns to the Globe Theatre.
Returning to Rome having fought in the war against the Goths, General Titus Andronicus brings home Queen Tamora and her three sons as prisoners of war. When he decides to sacrifice one of the sons to appease the ghosts of his own offspring, he initiates a terrible sequence of events. Rape, murder and mutilation ensue in this violent tragedy.
This latest staging revisits the highly acclaimed Lucy Bailey production that graced the Globe in 2006 and stars William Houston (Henry V, Clash of the Titans and Sherlock Holmes) as Titus and Indira Varma (The Hothouse) as Tamora.

Royal Exhibition Building Western Forecourt Collection
Image: Western Forecourt Archaeological Dig Site During Excavation, Melbourne, November 2009
Source: Museum Victoria
The Royal Exhibition Building Western Forecourt Collection consists of 1,566 artefacts excavated during an archaeological dig of the western forecourt of the Royal Exhibition Building, Melbourne, in November 2009. A majority of the artefacts were recovered from nightsoil deposits on the site, which were particularly rich in ceramics, glass and food refuse. Further artefacts were recovered from immediately below the crushed rock base of the circular driveway, which was constructed on the site for the Melbourne International Exhibition, 1880-1881.
The western forecourt was an integral part of the palace garden setting designed by architect Joseph Reed for the Melbourne International Exhibition, 1880-1881. At the opening of the Exhibition the forecourt featured a circular garden of informally planted garden beds and a central kiosk, around which a carriageway led to the western entrance of the building.
The archaeological dig investigated and recorded evidence of the 1880 iteration of the western forecourt garden in order to inform its reconstruction as part of Museum Victoria's World Heritage, World Futures project. The dig also recorded evidence of various incarnations of the site over time, prior to its conversion into an asphalt car park in the 1950s. Heritage consultants Godden Mackay Logan undertook the excavation in conjunction with the archaeology program at La Trobe University.
The artefact collection provides evidence of nightsoil deposited in the Carlton Gardens prior to 1879. Although the source of the nightsoil is as general as 19th century domestic, commercial and/or industrial discard from Melbourne and surrounds, the collection contains many artefacts of historical significance and interest. Artefacts include oyster shells and butchered meat bones, clay pipes, ceramics, wine and beer bottles, building materials including glass panes and wire nails, personal grooming and hygiene items, buttons, ornaments and even a harmonica.

Woman gets 3 years for bank robberyBy Gordon Dritschilo
Staff Writer | December 07,2012
Jill LudwigA woman charged in five bank robberies will serve 37 months in prison following her conviction on one of them.
Jill Ludwig of Castleton received the sentence Thursday in federal court in Rutland. She must also pay the banks a total of $21,852 in restitution (to be paid jointly with her boyfriend, John Maynard) and spend three years on supervised release following her prison term.
Court documents described how Ludwig came to Vermont from New Jersey in the spring of 2011.
She thereby avoided arrest and prosecution in New Jersey on an April 2011 felony indictment for stealing over $10,000, wrote William Darrow, assistant U.S. attorney.
Maynard joined her that July after getting out of prison in New Jersey, where court records said he was serving time on a felony drug conviction.
That fall, according to court records, the duo robbed the Merchants Bank in Rutland, the Lake Sunapee Bank in West Rutland, the Citizens Bank in Poultney and twice robbed the TD Bank in Granville, N.Y. All the banks were within 30 miles of their Castleton home.
Each time, one of them entered the bank wearing a sweat shirt with the hood up and handed a teller a note demanding money, according to court records.
The Poultney robbery was their last, according to court records, because a witness wrote down their license plate number and gave it to police. After arresting them in a traffic stop, police searched their apartment and found dye pack-stained money, a bathtub stained when they tried to wash the dye off the money and the note used in the robbery.
Prosecutors said Ludwig told police she robbed two of the banks and drove the car for Maynard when he robbed two others. She eventually pleaded guilty to the Poultney robbery.
Maynard has also made a guilty plea in the case and is scheduled for sentencing later this month.
In its sentencing arguments, the prosecutor noted that while Ludwig has no prior convictions, she appeared to have evaded two felony theft charges by moving from state to state and had a warrant out for her arrest for failing to appear in court in connection with a 2007 Vermont embezzling charge.

The Bachelor
Chris Harrison Reveals His Super-Swoony Fantasy Pick for Celebrity Bachelor!
The Bachelor has been in our lives for going on 17 glorious seasons, and fans are ready for a famous face to be struck with cupid's arrow. This season's Bachelor has yet to be determined, and Papa Bear Chris Harrison is finally dishing about what goes into the decision process — and whether or not ABC will cast a famous face.
"A lot goes into it that people don't know as far as making that final decision and who makes the best television," Chris explains to Entertainment Weekly. "We do take into consideration what the fans want and who they like, but at the same time we also have to make a television show and know what works. It's not always the same exact thing."
So, how does the complicated casting process work? "Our casting department is always casting," Chris says. "They literally cast 12 months a year. There are even people that we think, 'They're not good this season because they don't fit with Emily' or 'they don't fit with who the Bachelor is.' We'll hold them and call them up [for another season]."
The next Bachelor has yet to be cast, but at one point rumors were circulating about Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte nabbing the position. "With Arie and Sean, or a guy like Ryan Lochte, we always discuss people like that," Chris explains. "Are they serious contenders? Does it get to the point where we're negotiating? No. That whole Ryan Lochte thing about wanting all that money — that stuff doesn't happen, it doesn't get that far. But these people are definitely in the mix."
Hmmm, sounds like Chris is admitting that Ryan's name was thrown around! Does this mean a celebrity edition of Bachelor could be in our future? "If we get Jennifer Aniston, who [has been] notoriously unlucky in love — I know she's engaged now — or that type of person, if it made sense, you could do it," Chris says. "But just to do it to say, 'Hey, we have a celebrity, look at us!' It's kind of like doing the all-star edition of a show. It's kind of the kiss of death, kind of the beginning of the end. You can't just do things to be a stunt."
Speaking of celebs, Chris has a few famous faces he's dying to see on Bachelor. "I would love for some of my favorite athletes to come in and do it, to hang out with George Clooney or whoever," he admits.
George Clooney as The Bachelor? Sorry, Sean Lowe, but that's an idea we can get on board with!

10News I-Team honored at Fight for Healthy Kids event
The I-Team at KGTV, the Scripps ABC affiliate in San Diego, has earned a Healthy Kids Champion award for its investigation into lead-tainted rental homes.
The Environmental Health Coalition (EHC) honored the 10News I-Team and four other recipients April 24, 2013 at its annual Fight for Healthy Kids event at Marina Village Baja Room in Mission Bay. The Coalition honors groups whose leadership led to major victories for healthy kids in San Diego.
The EHC fights against toxic pollution in disadvantaged communities throughout the San Diego/Tijuana region.
After EHC's advocacy efforts lead to the City of San Diego's adoption of the Children's Right to Lead Safe House Ordinance, the Channel 10 Investigative News Team went undercover to reveal the truth about compliance. Their investigation exposed disobedient rental homes and apartment complexes that continued to harm children's health.
Read the first story here: I-Team: Some Landlords Still Renting Out Lead-Tainted Homes
"These five heroes from government, academia, and the media joined community members in their fight against every child's worst nightmare—toxic pollution from lead," said Environmental Health Coalition Executive Director Diane Takvorian. "These healthy kids victories grew from the environmental justice movement in San Diego's most disadvantaged communities and will benefit all children across San Diego and California."

Course Description
English 099E, a one-credit writing studio, is designed to assist students in developing and enhancing the critical writing and reading strategies and skills needed to be successful in and beyond Expanded Composition. In essence, as a one-semester course, ENG 099E complements the Expanded Composition course (ENG 100E). ENG 099E is intended to foster students' development as successful writers by reinforcing what they learn in ENG 100E; this studio course provides them with additional resources and support. In addition, the small class enrollment aims to build a strong writing community within which students can grow. Each week, students work together as a cohort group to discuss and work on writing objectives that will offer transferable skills for their ENG 100E course and assignments.
English 099 is guided by four central concepts:
- Reading as Process: Reading will play an integral part in this course. Whether students are reading for pleasure or for a class, reading requires analytical and critical thought. This is a process that this course will explore in-depth as we use readings to sharpen our critical thinking skills. Everyone makes sense of readings through their own individual experiences. It is a meaning making process that must be practiced in order to be learned.
- Writing as Process: The course stresses the process of writing—inventing and developing ideas, planning, drafting, and revising. This course will help students develop more awareness of their writing process, offering them a variety of strategies for improving that process at every level.
- Writing as Inquiry: Many think of writing as an act of transcription: you have an idea in your mind and you simply transcribe it on paper. Research and experience, however, show that the act of writing is an act of learning, a process of discovering new ways to look at our worlds and our places in them. When writing is an act of inquiry—when it starts with dissonance and questions, rather than pre-fabricated answers—writing becomes a process of learning. Hence, a central goal of the course is to help students think about and experience writing as a mode of inquiry and discovery.
- Collaboration: Writing is a social act, and whether you're writing in an academic community, business community, virtual community, and/or creative community, all writing is (in one way or another) collaborative. Learning to write with others, to respond to others' writing, and to write for specific audiences are vital goals for the class.
Learning Outcomes
By nature of its design, ENG 099E is linked to ENG 100E in an effort to aid in the successful completion of 100E, the first semester of the two-semester Expanded Composition sequence. Comp I--Expanded is the equivalent of an elective course and ENG 101, and ENG 101 is a GEC-required course at USM.
Because this course is a complement to ENG 100E, work in this studio course will center on and build upon the assignments and objectives that students receive in ENG 100E. To accomplish this, they will participate in discussions regarding rhetorical moves and strategies, writing workshops, in-class writing assignments, and/or additional reading and writing activities designed to further students' understanding of the writing assignments in English 100E.

Mysterious, stealthy, deadly. Legendary warriors who strike from the shadow, armed with an aura of mystique and a dark reputation, along with their exotic weapons. Possibly reptilian in origin, and trained by a rodent master.
As you may have guessed, this Webcomics Wednesday is about Ninja, the ancient Japanese master of stealth, espionage and assassination. For many of us, our first exposure to the ninja were the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon, whose main characters' hijinks led many of us to our love of a somewhat skewed perception of what ninja are, as well as a heightened appetite for pizza.
This rather colorful and not entirely accurate presentation of ninja seems to have led to the rather cavalier way they are presented in media, and webcomics are no exception. While all of this week's selections are good in their own right and employ ninja elements in their own way, some of them employ the theme of the ninja without truly paying homage to the true nature of the ninja: silent, serious, and very deadly.
That said, it is a testament to the appeal of the ninja that they are able to be portrayed in so many different themes, and without fail, add a sure dose of awesome.
If you're new to this, here's the scoop: Each Wednesday we will showcase five indie web comics. This will give you an opportunity to support indie artists and the amazing work they do.
Without further ado, this week's selection! Each one is highlighted here (in no particular order) on the merits of its ART, STORY and APPEAL.
Comic: 70 Seas
Story and Art: Nick Daniel
In their own words: Well into the second Age of Exploration and Warfare the Church is pushing the boundaries of nature and decency, the Vikings have resorted to legitimate commerce, and thanks to a tiny revolution in a country no one has ever heard of it is now possible to hire the services of something called a 'ninja'.
Fortunately for navigator Serra, child fugitive Nikol, and divine prophet Lewk you don't need to know about any of that to be a privateer. You just need to know that port is heading northeast, the war is scheduled for Tuesday, and 43% of all (reported) profits are reserved for the coffers of the Republican Empire of Fra.
Someone is probably going to get killed but whoever survives is going to hit it BIG!*
In our words: Pirates, a ninjas, and piles of adventure. Starting with the proven formula of a trio of mismatched characters thrown together under unlikely circumstances, 70 Seas is an extensive webcomic with lots of character, color and action for those who dare seek it out.
Comic: The Adventures of Dr. McNinja
Story and Art: Christopher Hastings
In their own words: In a world where a doctor can also be a ninja, you can expect some things. Little boys with large moustaches, giant lumberjacks, raptor riding banditos, Dracula's moon base… If you like action mixed with comedy and doctors mixed with ninjas, Dr. McNinja is a comic you'll most likely enjoy.
In our words: Over the top, cheeky, ridiculous in a good way, The Adventures of Dr. McNinja is a guilty pleasure that anyone with a high tolerance for slapstick and violence can enjoy.
Comic: White Ninja Comics
Story and Art: Scott Bevan and Kent Earle
In their own words: White Ninja Comics are not for the weak of mind. They are a brilliant satirical commentary on controversial worldly issues.
They can be enjoyed on many levels. Scholars, Philosophers, and the like, who possess the intellect to analyze and break down the comics to their hidden, and often devious, roots, will enjoy White Ninja to its fullest degree. Others, like you and I, however, can still enjoy the comics for their light-hearted surface humour and funny drawings.
In our words: A webcomic where the only c0nstant is the White Ninja, an often heartless and sociopathic bastard, who can wreak havoc through violence or social insensitivity, and all for the entertainment of the reader. While the art is simplistic, it is intentional, and its apparent crudeness works well to showcase the style of humor employed.
Comic: NinjaFly
Story and Art: Tiago Machado, Ricardo Pimenta and Tiago Conceição
In their own words: See here.
In our words: Ninja insects? The ninjafication of more species continues with this work by a trio of Portoguese teens. Admittedly, the amount of ninja in this webcomic is a bit superficial. Still, as a quick read given the limited amount of strips in 2010 there is humor to be found and potential in their art. Perhaps the amount of publicity from being featured here will encourage them to start anew.
Comic: Ninja Bunny
Story and Art: Phil Spence
In their own words: Ninja Bunny debuted on the 5th September 2005 on myspace before moving to it's own website on the 31st January 2006. Since then it has been sporadically updating twice a week on Monday and Friday.
In our words: Perhaps the best representation of ninja of the webcomics presented this week, Ninja Bunny's later works in single panel format have little in the way of words, vivid images and subscribe to the maxim, a picture is worth a thousand words, but a title sure does help.

The top eight teams and the top three individuals who are not members of a top-eight team will advance from this week's Regionals to the NCAA Championships on May 20-23 in
The individual entrants that includes de Groot, along with the top 12 seeds, will tee off at 8:00 a.m. Thursday morning. Top-seeded Duke, No. 2 seed
Duke enters NCAA play in search of becoming the first Division I women's golf program to capture four straight national championships. Winning also is the goal this weekend.
"I think you need to play to win," head coach Dan Brooks said. "That's really the only mentality to have. If you got into this tournament, you're here to win it."
Dori Carter of Ole Miss is the highest ranked individual in the field not competing with her teammates. Carter is ranked No. 25 by Golfstat, making her the sixth highest ranked golfer in the entire East Regional field.
"I feel like it's not a shoe-in (to advance to the NCAAs)," Carter said. "I have to take care of business here. I'm practicing and getting ready, following my normal routine like I would for any other tournament and taking it one shot at a time."
Live scoring for the tournament can be found at http://www.georgiadogs.com/liveStats/liveStats.dbml.

Whey to go Joe!
Posted: November 27, 2012|
Young Cambridge entrepreneur Joe Faulkner-Edwards has launched an online health supplement business with £18,000 of funding from Anglia Ruskin University.
After impressing the judges for last year's Enterprise Fellowship Scheme, Joe received financial backing, as well as mentoring and support, from the Centre for Enterprise Development and Research (CEDAR) based at Anglia Ruskin's Lord Ashcroft International Business School.
The Enterprise Fellowship Scheme is sponsored by a private benefactor and the winners are chosen by a panel of judges including Walter Herriot and Peter Taylor, managing director of the TTP Group at Melbourn.
Joe's business, Whey Forward Health Industries, specialises in formulas that combine whey with vitamins and minerals. The company, which is a corporate partner with the National Osteoporosis Society's Bone Health Partnership, aims to improve immune function and enhance quality of life, primarily for the ageing population.
Joe, who is also a freelance health and fitness writer as well as a qualified personal trainer, said: "Through my research for various articles about nutrition, I unearthed the extensive health benefits of whey. When creating fitness and nutrition plans for some older clients I would always highlight the importance of whey as a dietary supplement to help promote immune function and prevent the loss of lean tissue associated with age.
"It was clear that the branding and marketing of whey products targeted at athletes and fitness enthusiasts brought negative connotations within the older population. The huge tubs, large serving sizes and images of muscle-bound men were enough to put them off. This led me to research whey in more detail: its benefits, how it is manufactured, and the current market structure. It was clear to me that there was a huge gap in the market.
"The capital awarded and the unrivalled level of advice and expertise offered as a result of winning the Enterprise Fellowship Scheme has enabled me to transition from what was a promising idea to launching a realistically sustainable business – a step I would have struggled to achieve alone. Knowing I have the CEDAR team for advice and support is very encouraging."
:: The final of this year's Enterprise Fellowship Scheme will take place in Cambridge on Tuesday, December 11 and will see four businesses pitch their ideas to a panel of judges for a share of the £36,500 remaining in this year's pot.

How do you knock off one of the best teams in the nation with one of the best players in the nation? Get out to a fast start, limit turnovers, stay out of foul trouble, and hope your best player can have one of his best games. Purdue didn't really do any of those things, but fought back in the 2nd half to make this a ballgame. Purdue eventually dropped the opener of the Old Spice Classic in Orlando to Marcus Smart and the fifth ranked Oklahoma State Cowboys.
Outside of having the same number of turnovers in the first half as Oklahoma State, the Boilers' Thanksgiving Day match up in Orlando appeared to be all but over at halftime. Both teams came into the Old Spice Classic with 5-0 records but Purdue was unranked. Ap Top 25 Rankings
Purdue found themselves in foul trouble early as starting center A.J. Hammons picked up two early fouls and was a non-factor in the first half. Same goes for the starting point guard, Ronnie Johnson. Combine that with ejection of Purdue's first man off the bench, Jay Simpson, the Boilers were off to a terrible start. Future lottery pick, Marcus Smart, led the way for the Cowboys with 24 first half points. Oklahoma was 18-25 from the charity stripe and shot 56% from the floor in the first half, as the Cowboys went into the break leading 52-29.
The Boilermakers cut the deficit to 4 with just under 3 minutes to play. They went on a 25-12 run as Marcus Smart went to the bench with foul trouble in the second half. Purdue was much more aggressive and got to the free throw line often. Purdue fought hard but could not get any closer than 4 points. Smart hit a key driving layup late to extend the lead to 8 and he finished with 30 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists. Markel Brown added 25 points. Purdue had 5 players in double figures was led by Bryson Scott's 18 points. Purdue will play Washington St Friday at 11am ET in Orlando. Oklahoma State will play Butler.

Flat screen monitors means merely that the surface of the viewing area

"fishbowled" :) ).

They're not necessarily any thinner than a regular monitor. They might
be slightly less deep because the technology of CRTs is improving, but
you shouldn't bet on it.

The LCD monitors for desktop computers tend to be referred to as "Flat Panel"
versus "Flat Screen".

Debra Schleef's students got a sweet assignment this fall. And, if you don't think learning about univariate statistics sounds sweet, think again. Chocolate changes everything. "I'm pumped to get started on this," said senior sociology major Lauren Boyle, who tore into a bag of M&M's in a late-morning lab in Monroe 114. Each October Schleef, professor of sociology, turns her Quantitative Research Methods and Analysis course into the tastier "Candy Lab." M&M's add color to the curriculum and whet students' appetites for concepts, like random probability sampling, that might otherwise seem tedious. Working in pairs, Boyle and her classmates ripped open bags of the button-shaped morsels and set aside 50 pieces. Schleef let them slurp up the extras – with one caveat. "Randomly eat them," she said. "Don't eat only one color, or you'll ruin the results." They counted the green, red, yellow, brown, orange, and blue M&M's in their bags, while Schleef drew … [Read more...]
Munching the Numbers
A Bigger Impact
The night before graduation, Laura Allan got a life-changing phone call. Allan, a 2012 UMW graduate, had been accepted to the competitive DC Teaching Fellows program. Less than one month later, she arrived in Washington, D.C., to start an intensive eight-week training session. DC Teaching Fellows, a partnership between District of Columbia Public Schools and TNTP, a national nonprofit organization, trains professionals and recent college grads to serve high-need students throughout the D.C. area. The program is catered to people who have taken a nontraditional route to education, like Allan, who focused her undergraduate work on sociology. UMW, recognized on the President's Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll for the past three years, is known for its service-minded students and alumni. The Peace Corps ranks UMW No. 1 in the nation among small universities for alumni now serving as Peace Corps volunteers. But many recent graduates, like Allan, choose to volunteer … [Read more...]
There's No Place Like Home
Leslie Martin has honed in on housing and homelessness in the Fredericksburg area community. And so are students taking the freshman class seminar taught by the assistant professor of sociology. The students work at a local homeless shelter, assist with community dinners and tutor through programs around Fredericksburg. This integral community involvement helps shed light on area housing issues that undergraduates tackle in Martin's seminar, "No Place Like Home: Housing and Society." Martin leads discussions on housing and homelessness, using examples from her ongoing research on the rhetoric of homeless service providers. One such discussion in her urban sociology class focused on how the presence of homeless people in the downtown area impact local businesses. The timely issue illustrates how communities address inequality and poverty, Martin said. Martin, who has served on affordable housing and homelessness task forces, sees a connection between how agencies and … [Read more...]

Police dog finds man hiding after crash; DUI 3 charge resultsBy ERIC FRANCIS
CORRESPONDENT | April 27,2013WHITE RIVER JUNCTION A Perkinsville man was in court this week facing his third drunk driving charge after a police dog found him hiding behind his home earlier this month, police said.
Vermont State Police said the dog found him in a tall stand of grass April 9 at about 1 a.m. after troopers found his pickup overturned nearby on Route 106.
Andrew Merritt, 38, pleaded innocent to the felony DUI count and was released from court on a series of pre-trial conditions.
Trooper Ryan Wood said Weathersfield fire and rescue workers arrived just before midnight April 8 to find Merritts blood-stained pickup lying on its side 25 feet off the roadway with no one around it.
Wood wrote in his affidavit he and two other troopers went to check on Merritts residence a few minutes later and found a smear of what appeared to be drying blood above the front door handle. He said there was no response when they knocked and yelled state police!
Fearing someone could be injured, Wood said, they used an emergency exception to search warrant requirements and entered through an unlocked back door. Wood said they found blood on the walls, in the bathroom, and on a railing beside the cellar stairs.
More blood was found on the cellar door, the trooper said, which led police to believe that Merritt had left the house by that route.
A police tracking dog led troopers to the edge of a nearby river and then over several hundred yards to a stand of tall grass where Merritt was found on the ground.
Wood said Merritt ignored commands to show officers his hands until the police dog was released and forced compliance.
Merritt was taken to Springfield Hospital after he began complaining of chest pains, Wood said. A blood sample drawn in the emergency room showed the suspect had a 0.109 percent blood-alcohol level a couple of hours after the accident, over the legal driving limit of .08 percent, the trooper said.MORE IN Southern VermontBENNINGTON — Ask author and Bennington College graduate Charlotte Silver if the title of...

In its continued effort to enhance the guest experience, Oyster Bay Beach Resort, a 187 unit luxury resort in the Oyster Pond section, decided that Thrifty/Dollar was the ideal company that was compatible with its highest level of service. Now all Oyster Bay guests will have a world-renowned brand providing a car rental service at very competitive rates and with more flexibility. Guest will now have the choice of picking up the car upon arrival at the airport or at the Resort. Additionally they can now return the vehicle to the airport upon departure without any additional charges.
