This counts as our third trip to Nevada. Each trip gets longer, and we keep discovering more amazing things about this beautiful state right next door. We haven't even touched the southern half yet!
I read about Jarbidge, NV. a couple years ago and my main goal this trip was to make it out to this tiny town hidden away in the northeast corner. I love reading ride reports, studying maps, and searching the web for information about the places we go. It is really cool to see a place in person that I have read about, often it is more amazing than I imagined. It is pretty fun to say to my husband, "Hey, I read about this place, let's go here." He is usually in the dark about where I am taking him, and when we get there if it turns out to be spectacular,which is pretty easy in Nevada, it is like uncovering a treasure.
This was the planned route, always subject to revision!

Ok, the map appears to be working now. Here's a rundown of the plan-
Day 1 and 2
Scoot out to the Black Rock Desert and catch the Balls22 crowd doing their thing. Shooting rockets out in the desert, sounds like a funky crew doing some crazy things. Camp on the playa or more likely Frog Pond where we stayed last time. Then head to the Santa Rosa range.
Day 3
Santa Rosa to Jarbidge. Maybe camp, maybe hotel.
Day 4
Jarbidge to Lamoille Canyon, continuing on down across the Ruby Mountains to the hot springs at Ruby Lake.
Day 5
Find our way through Eureka to Potts hot springs, Diana's Punchbowl and/or beyond.
Day 6
Highway slog towards home, cutting out around Hawthorn to hit the dirt and temporary abode for the last night somewhere in the eastern Sierras.
Day 7
Paved twisty day! Monitor Pass, Highway 88, Mormon Immigrant Trail, and the backroads into Placerville, up 49 and onward to home sweet home.
Our daily home is where we find it on the road. Follow the tracks until the time and place are right, pitch a tent and we are good to go. Another glorious thing about Nevada!
Here is a random, unplanned camp spot just to give you an idea of what is out there.

Heading out there again in a week or so on the KTM 350 EXC-F, wx permitting, to explore some tracks way off the beaten path.
Looking forward to your Hot Springs/campsite reports.
And thanks for the Jarbidge update!

Classic start to our trips; packed, loaded, geared up, electronics sorted, wheeled out, key turned, .....silence. Oh, hell no!
Ha ha! Not in neutral!
Good one sweetie.
Day one is basically getting to the beginning of our trip. Giant tarmac slab to Reno, last minute shopping at REI, top off with In-N-Out, and on to the playa.
We arrived at Frog Pond to find a naked man offering us beer. No, really. Some guys from the rocket crew were escaping the wind and dust of the lake bed with a warm soak and cold brews. One guy was getting more beer from the car as we rode up. I think it took him a second to realize I was female. He was laughing and covering up and I put my hand over my visor to save his modesty. He called over, "Hey, want a beer?" as we pulled off our helmets. Well this is certainly a fabulous start to the trip!
We chatted with them about the rockets and the characters who fly them for a while, then they went on their way. We set up camp, anchoring down the tent with parachute cord and rocks. We had been fighting a nasty crosswind all the way from I-80, and it was creating quite the dust storm out on the playa. Even sheltered in the trees we were in for a blustery night. We had a soak and some snacks and snuggled in for the night. Tomorrow we officially begin our third venture out to see Nevada.

For a minute, I dated a guy in Reno. I LOVED driving all over northern NV looking for hot springs. I came to the conclusion that you could get from anywhere to anywhere in Nevada via an unpaved road... Now that I have the bike, I wish that area was still part of my regular stomping grounds. The TW would love it. (I've only seen ONE naked man worth seeing at a hot spring... but so worth seeing.)
Can't wait to see the rest of the ride!

Day 2
Can you see the little tiny rainbow?
Rain on the playa, we thought that may be a bad idea.
Started the day with a morning soak, broke camp, and headed out for our first excursion out on to the Black Rock alkali flats. We could see the trailers of the rocket guys, so once we crossed the train tracks and made it through the scrub, we made a bee line for them. The playa was a new surface for us and having read several warnings, we kept our speed to a conservative 50mph. The flats were softer than we imagined, but not scary soft. It was pretty cool to just cruise along such a wide open area.
We made it to the camper village, but discovered not much was going on. It was still pretty windy, there was quite a bit of cloud cover and a threat of showers. We looked around a bit and said hey to the guys we met the previous night, then high tailed it to Gerlach before the rain decided to get serious about starting it's day. We topped of our tanks, both ours and the bikes and took off for the Santa Rosa Range via Jungo Rd.
The roads in Nevada are funny. We start our a bit cautiously, but slowly gain confidence and with each upshift gain speed. I was taking the lead for a bit at a nice 50 mph clip when Nevada gave me a little tap on the shoulder. "Hey you. Yeah, you. Whadda ya think you're doin'?"
The sign said, "DIP." It didn't say, "Two big ol' trenches filled with silt." I saw it too late. The first "dip" was a couple of feet across and about six inches deep. I probably hit it about 40mph. There wasn't much I could do but steady throttle and hold on. YAY! I made it.... UH OH! "Dip" number two was not so nice. About four feet across and at least ten inches deep with most of that filled with more silt. I plowed in. The bike kicked to the right. Ok, ok....
I can still pull up the image in my mind like a still off a GoPro. I am holding on, somewhat floating, and the bike is below me perpendicular to the road. I can't pull out of this one. Next thing I am hitting the road. I slid a bit and reached up quickly to hit my intercom and warn my husband, Hans, behind me. Before I could say anything I looked behind me to see a big GS swerving crazily through the silt. I don't know how he did it, but he held it together. As he passed me, a pannier box went skidding off the side of the road. I wondered how his box managed to come off.
Hans said that he was a couple hundred feet behind me when I hit. I was already throwing up a cloud of dust when he saw a giant cloud explode in my vicinity. He knew I was somewhere in that cloud and was scared he might run me over. He managed to make it through both pits and miss me, but there was nothing to do but nail my pannier head on. He was sure that would have taken him down, but it was no match for 600 pounds of Gelande Strasse.
That was the box I saw. I didn't even know it was mine. Man, I hope I can put that thing back on! I seemed to be ok, but my bike seemed a little sad. I am pretty upset that I didn't get a picture. Guess I wasn't thinking straight with my bike laying there puking gas onto the road. We got her picked up and assessed the carnage.
Pummeled box and bent rack.
Bent handlebar clamp
Broken mirror, the plastic hand guard came off too, but it was only ziptied on anyway.
Various scratches and chipped paint
And my favorite, check out that rear set!
It's just sticking straight out there! Like a... a... a thing that sticks straight out!
She started right up though, and the box made it back on with a little persuasion. Reality check noted, we continued on. We kept the speed down and avoided the dreaded fourth gear for the rest of the trip. We were in no real hurry anyway, and desert roads are not to be trusted.
The rest of the ride went by unmolested. The climb up Buckskin Canyon was really nice and we found our campsite on Cabin Creek pretty early, around 3:30 or so. It was nice to just relax a bit and it was a real nice afternoon anyway. Hans was napping and I was addressing my bikes issues of the day when the wind suddenly kicked back up. Our tent location suddenly became a bad idea and we had to fight the wind to get it moved, find rocks to anchor it down, and move the bikes to provide some sort of wind break. After that was done, we looked to the ridgeline to see black clouds forming. Crap!
Hans hates the wind. The clouds stayed on the ridgeline, and became less threatening, but we were still in for a wet windy night. No matter, look where we are!
We took a walk down the creek, then ate dinner and settled in. Just as dusk was setting, and the rain began, Hans said, "I hope the ground doesn't get soft and the bikes fall over...."
In a moment of brilliance, we decided to try and find flat rocks to put under the kickstands. Now, remember, we were settled in, which means jammies. (No, we don't bring jammies, I mean nature's jammies.) We donned rain coats and shoes and ran around the meadow looking for rocks. What a sight we must have made! Here's one! No, that's a cow pie. Here's one! No, another cow pie.
No, I did not take pictures!
We ended up looking at the ground under the bikes and decided chance would probably be in our favor. We scurried into our tent and listened to the rain and wind all night.

Warm and tanRyan Taylor discusses preparing for his vacation this year.
By: Ryan Taylor, Agweek
TOWNER, N.D. — It's not straw hat season for cowboys in North Dakota, but I'm digging my straw cowboy hat out of storage this week as I travel to a warmer clime. As it turns out, my presence in Mexico has been requested by someone I don't like to deny — my mother-in-law.
She's not requesting I travel to Mexico to arrange a hit on me so as to free up her daughter for someone better, but rather, wants a vacation with her children, grandchildren and even her in-law children on the sunny beaches near Cancun.
I agreed to the idea long ago when the tickets had to be booked. But when the mercury hit 20 below Fahrenheit on the ranch and the diesel fuel in my tractor turned to jelly, the excitement for it cranked up a notch. I found myself chanting with frosty breath, "When do we leave, when do we leave?" as I changed the fuel filters on my tractor barehanded out on the tundra. I did, however, ungel the tractor for our friend who agreed to feed the cows while we were gone.
Hide preparation
The place we are going will likely require fewer articles of clothing than what I wear in North Dakota in the winter. My wife bought me some shorts and short-sleeved shirts to help me blend in with the other tourists.
Then, upon further inspection of the tan lines extending as far down as my neck and up to my wrists, she suggested it might be a good idea for me to have a couple tanning sessions before I head closer to the equator in my new skin-revealing wardrobe.
It was true, my legs and torso haven't seen a lot of sun in the 43 years I've walked the earth. They have seen even fewer, like zero, tanning booths. But I'm afraid of nothing, man nor beast nor fluorescent tubes of artificial light, so I agreed to the challenge.
Certainly, I know the warnings about artificial tanning. Believe me, I'm not making a habit of it, but I figured it would be okay to do a few sessions if for no other reason than to have material for this week's column.
I opted for the speedy tan system where you stand up in a phone-booth-sized booth and get a real quick zap, kind of the convection oven of tanning booths. Honestly, I'm in a hurry. I've got tractors to ungel, fuel filters to change, things to do.
I can't be lying around for minutes on end in a slow baking booth. For one, I'm trying to get in and out of this joint quickly before somebody sees me sneaking through the swinging doors of the sun tannery. A cowboy would almost rather be caught going into a yoga class or a lingerie store. Wait a minute, I guess I've done those things too and written columns about them. Amazing what a guy will do to have something to write with a biweekly column deadline and a scarcity of ideas.
After three sessions and $13.20, I guess I'm ready to head south and walk the beach bare chested in my shorts and sandals. But upon mirrored inspection and my wife's once over glance, it doesn't seem like I got much for my money.
After running through the routine with my wife about my disrobing, my stance and the minutes on the quick bake timer, we discovered the problem.
Next time, I need to remember to take off my long johns when I head into the booth. Adios, amigos.

How Do You Go From Friendship To More?
you need to make a moveBut let's take your concerns one by one. Sadly, declining Kristen's invitation to spend Thanksgiving with her and her family was a blockheaded move on your part. The general rule is no group dates, and accepting her invitation would have qualified as a group date.
But since you're "just friends" anyway and you had time to spend with her family, you could have used the opportunity to show her family what a great guy you are, which would have helped you get rid of the turkey she was thinking about dumping! McQueen, this was a big, big blunder!
You say that you and Kristen only went out for lunch a couple of times. Why not three or four times? And why not at night? You should have taken her dancing, so she could get her hands on you — none of this wishy-washy day-date stuff. It's a weak way to close the deal!
Now, you shouldn't be talking to Kristen's friends about anything having to do with her. All her friends are going to do is twist the truth, and you're going to end up stabbing yourself in the back. Remember; everybody out there is trying to stop you from getting this girl, so keep your mouth shut!
you do have willpowerYour restraint has been quite admirable, McQueen. As a matter of fact, your non-aggression would be the envy of the Dalai Lama. But for anything significant to happen with Kristen now, she has to contact you. And if and when that happens, the first thing you've got to do is ask her out!
You have to move out of this "friendship" role you've assumed and take her out when the sun's down, make her laugh, and make sure she has a great time. And if she never contacts you, McQueen, then she never really liked you in the first place.
So the upshot of your impasse, McQueen, is that you've got to move from the friendship plane to the dating plane. You've been playing the role of friend too long. That's why, even though she had a boyfriend, you should have asked for her home phone number. And if she had said no, you should have given her yours , and told her "As soon as your boyfriend is circling in the sink, call me — I'll be your quality backup," and walked away with a smile.
How long does it take women to rebound to another guy? Find out...

Double check the year of your engine. It appears to have the newer SEM stator with the flywheel on the inside and the stator in the cover. If I'm not mistaken, that should make it a '98 or '99. I don't remember when they went to the hydraulic clutch but your's appears to be cable except for the Rekluse.
I like the newer plastic on the older frame. I had seen it done once before but it was a little ghetto because the guy chrome plated the frame. I was told that it was a lot of work to move mounts and cover up the second air filter hole on the left side.
Looks great!
I just had a thought as far as fuel capacity goes. The original Husabergs throughout the 90's had a small vacuum actuated fuel pump to deliver fuel to the carb when the level of the fuel was lower than the floats. This was necessary because the fuel tank was almost completely on the right side of the bike and the second air filter was on the left. That meant that the fuel tank, in order to get a decent fuel capacity, dropped almost all the way down to the engine case. Well, that fuel pump could be used in a custom setup with low fuel tanks like what the typical Dakar bikes use.
Now to get to work on the fuel tanks...

Coca-cola and wine may be put to an unusual use on the beaches of northern Australia - as an antidote for a sting from the box jellyfish. But the wine has to have been opened for at least four days, by which time it is more like vinegar than a decent Cabernet.
A brush with a box jellyfish (Chironex fleckeri) can be fatal. In Australia, 70 people are known to have died from stings - 38 in Queensland and 32 in the Northern Territory. People can die within three minutes, normally from heart failure or because of cessation of breathing. The last reported fatality was a four-year-old boy at Gladstone in northern Queensland in 1987. Since then, publicity campaigns have increased people's awareness of the dangers.
The box jellyfish swims in the waters off Darwin for most of the year. Farther south, at Rockhampton on the central coast of Queensland, ...

This extension is a very powerful shipping automation solution, which provides a complete set of tools to integrate Amazon fulfillment into a Magento store. It's not always reasonable businesswise to manage shipping by oneself, because of extra time and efforts it requires. In such cases the service called Fulfilled by Amazon (FBA) comes to help. It manages all shipping and handling for you. All you need to do is send you merchandize to Amazon in bulk, and in advance. After that once you get an order – you pass it to Amazon and it takes care of the rest. Our Amazon fulfillment plugin does the automation of such order passing process. It tracks all purchases of store items marked as Fulfilled by Amazon, and sends all shipping information to Amazon automatically. Once an order is fulfilled, the module updates the stock within Magento to conform to stock value at Amazon.
- Ability to set specific marketplace for each product.
- Ability to specify amazon marketplace (US, CA, CN, DE, JP, UK, IT, IN, FR, ES).
- Ability to specify which individual products are Fulfilled by Amazon.
- Ability to choose where the stock value is managed: within Magento, or within Amazon.
- Ability to specify stock synchronization frequency between Magento and Amazon.
- Ability to restrict shipping per country
- Three Amazon shipping types: Standard Shipping, Expedited Shipping, Priority Shipping. Ability to specify as many pricing rules as needed for each of those Amazon shipping types. Ability to set any of those types as the default.
- All extension's code is open source.

Thank you a lot for this helpfull extenssion ! It help us a lot for fba orders. Good Job !!
We've been in business since 2006 and we sell on eBay, Amazon and our own website. Recently we've switched from our own warehouse to Fulfillment by Amazon and as you can imagine, switching warehouses is a very big chore!
I'm a programmer myself and did a lot of research when trying to find the functionality that we needed. This extension looked very promising, but was still in beta. We waited patiently as we went about doing other business related tasks and it was finally released. As soon as it was released in production, we purchased and installed it.
I will outline the two errors that we have had and how they were handled by Webtex:
First, we noticed that when we tried to export all of our products, it gave us a warning. The export still worked perfectly but the warning was still somewhat disconcerting. We contacted the developer and he fixed it right away for us (I think it was a misnamed column that we didn't actually need).
Then, when the first couple of orders came in, the requests were being put in the queue, but weren't being processed (they said they were being throttled). Again we contacted Webtex and they fixed it right away without any hassle on our part. The orders are now synced with Amazon and it's working perfectly!
Everything is working flawlessly now, and I'm excited to see how it works when we start up our full advertising campaign again. I do admit, it's still a new extension and it's possible that we might have a couple more bumps... but I'm very confident that Webtex will be behind us 100% because they've been very helpful and supportive as we've begun implementing their extension.
I would recommend this extension to anyone because I feel like it's becoming more and more stable each day. I wrote this review on July 25, 2013 so if you're reading this after a few weeks/months it should be good to go!
In case you're wondering, I'm running Magento version 188.8.131.52 on Apache Linux (64bit) which is running PHP 5.3 and MySQL 5.1.
(this review was taken from http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/fulfillment-by-amazon.html)
This is exactly what we were looking for at rokitboost.com.. We love this extension. But the better part of the story is that when we contacted customer support to request their help, they replied in less than 5 minutes, started working on the issue right away and fixed it..
Highly recommended!

Working with Extension
Extension's Configuration Settings
To edit module's settings navigate to System→Configuration→Webtex→Fulfillment by Amazon. There you will find options, reflected on Screenshot 1.
- Access Key ID, Secret Access Key: this information is provided by Amazon.
- Check Qty from: here you should choose how to track inventory: by Magento standard means, or regularly retrieve it from Amazon. If 'Amazon' option has been chosen, then a Qty check frequency field appears, where you can choose how often you'd like the stock to be synchronized.
Extension's Shipping Settings
To edit extension's shipping settings navigate to System→Configuration→Fulfillment by Amazon Shipping. There you will find options, reflected on Screenshot 2.
- Standard Shipping, Expedited Shipping, Priority Shipping sections represent three types of shipping that Amazon offers with FBA service. You can use all three, or disable any of them, or make one of them the default.
- In Shipping price rulessection you can create any number of price rules for shipping. Amazon doesn't provide shipping prices automatically, so you need to create your own shipping prices. You can, say, create a fixed price shipping by specifying weight interval as 0-99999. Or you could create weight dependent price rules, as reflected on the screenshot above. These rules will be applied to the order during checkout.
Note that weight units and price currency are used the same as specified in Magento configuration.
Extension's Product Settings
Each product that needs to be shipped through Amazon, needs to be marked as such. To accomplish that, a corresponding checkbox needs to be checked on Fulfillment by Amazon section on product page (see Screenshot 3).
We also provide professional Magento development, customization and SEO services.

New Promo for Glee Season 5, Episode 9: "Frenemies" — Starchild is Back! (VIDEO)
Can you believe we finally made it, Gleeks? It's been a tough road at times, but we've finally endured the two-plus months of no Glee, and now the show comes back in less than a week! Even better, we're getting a new look at next week's Season 5, Episode 9: "Frenemies," and it features a bunch of great lines of dialogue!
Perhaps the most dramatic storyline in the episode will be Santana (Naya Rivera) nabbing the role of Rachel's (Lea Michele) understudy in Funny Girl, which leads to a huge fight between the two. "You are awful, and that is never gonna change," Santana tells Rachel in the promo, just before Rachel gives her a five-finger surprise right across the face. Yowza.
We're also excited to see Starchild (Adam Lambert) back on the show, although he and Kurt (Chris Colfer) appear to be having a disagreement about who belongs in their band, Pamela Lansbury. "Everybody's bringing something essential to the mix," Starchild tells Kurt, to which Kurt replies, "Said Beyonce right before she left Destiny's Child." Love it! But who is the Queen Bey in their group? Hmm.
We also see Tina (Jenna Uskowitz) pushing Artie (Kevin McHale) out of his chair (what?!), along with Sue (Jane Lynch) and Schue (Matthew Morrison) at an audition, where Sue adds this lovely piece of encouragement: "What a stomach-turning waste of everybody's time." That's our Sue!
Clearly, this episode is going to be well worth the wait! Bring on the slaps.

Voter registration is open now until Aug. 27 for the city's Sept. 27 bond referendum.
Residents may visit the city clerk's office during regular business hours to register and need to have photo identification in hand. During the Tuesday board of aldermen meeting, Wiseman said the city clerk's office will open on Saturday, Aug. 27, from 8 a.m. to noon to accommodate final weekend registration.
Aldermen approved the citywide bond vote during a special Aug. 9 meeting. If passed, the $8.45 million bond would go toward the construction of a new police station at the intersection of Highway 182 and Jackson Street. Only funding for the first phase of the two-phase municipal complex plan is currently up for vote.
Ward 5 Alderman Jeremiah Dumas unveiled a new website — http://www.cityofstarkville.org/masterplan/ [3] — for interested Starkville residents to visit, educate themselves on the municipal complex plan and tally potential impact from a potential 3.49-mill increase if the bond is passed. Currently, the city's millage rate is 20 mills, and Dumas said Starkville has one of the lowest tax rates in the state after the board passed the city's 2012 budget.
Starkville Board of Aldermen also approved two budgets funded through the 2 percent food and beverage tax Tuesday.
Mississippi State University's Student Association budget was approved unanimously after a presentation by Bill Kibler, vice president for student affairs, and SA President Rhett Hobart. The budget funds events and services, such as Bulldog Bash and the Night Route, which Kibler said "benefit students and Starkville" alike. Kibler also said MSU should have over 20,000 students enrolled this semester, the first time for any university in the state.
The Starkville Convention and Visitors Bureau's budget was also unanimously approved by aldermen later in the meeting. Jennifer Gregory, Greater Starkville Development Partnership vice president for tourism, said the budget called for greater increases in advertising in order to draw more visitors to the community.
"We feel we are the agency responsible for promoting Starkville," she said.
The advertising's success can be seen in the fact Mississippi Magazine will feature Pumpkinpalooza, which Gregory said was the first time a Starkville event has been featured in the magazine.
The board also approved the purchase of equipment and advertising to fill vacant positions for the public works department.
Public Works Director Doug Devlin said the equipment and soon-to-be-added manpower will be used in the department's efforts to flush Starkville pipes of brown water.
The water, which is potable, was discolored after a federally-mandated chlorine increase caused increased oxidation of the inside of the pipes.

WASHINGTON, D.C. --- A Cedar Falls sailor injured in Afghanistan has been released from the hospital.
Morris announced on his blog that he was officially released from the hospital Thursday, and has moved to an apartment at Walter Reed Army Hospital in Washington, D.C.
Taylor Morris and his girlfriend, Danielle Kelly, spent the Fourth of July at the White House celebration. They had been invited there by President Barack Obama, who met the couple last week at the hospital.
Morris was hurt on May 3 in Afghanistan while working as a bomb disposal technician. He lost his left arm at the elbow, his right arm at the wrist, his left leg at mid-thigh and his right leg at the knee.

They were conceived and built by Horace H. Day who is the patent holder. Lt. John C. Fremont called these, "Air Army Boats." These rafts were rectangular in shape, and they were not able to control them in the rapids, they would just let the river take them wherever it pleased. These early whitewater rafts consisted of individually wrapped rubber tubes with a wrap around floor. Lt. John C. Fremont soon abandoned this method of unpredictable whitewater rafting and never wrote of it again.The alternatives in those days were catarafts, which was a suspended floor placed on top of two floating tubes, and large wooden rowing boats. Both of these proved to be unreliable in heavy whitewater, the catarafts not being sturdy enough, and the wooden whitewater rowing boats being to heavy and unwieldy in the water.

Cross-Cultural Studies Concentration (CCST)
The Cross-Cultural Studies Concentration objectives are: 1) to bring together American and international students in a program of study and interaction that will prepare them to live and work productively in a culture different from their own; 2) to provide a forum for studying problems and issues, such as pollution, disease, and human rights, that cut across traditional national or cultural boundaries and that tend to be excluded in traditional disciplines or area studies; 3) to enable students to come to a sharper understanding of their own and their academic focus culture by making comparisons explicit; 4) to create an arena for faculty whose work focuses on different parts of the world to address common issues and problems in a comparative, collaborative framework.
Requirements for the Concentration
Language is fundamental to understanding other societies and it is therefore fundamental to the concentration. Each concentrator will fulfill the Carleton language requirement in the language of the focus area, or will study in a language-intensive program in the focus area. Upper level language study is encouraged.
Concentrators will select a nation or region of the world on which to focus their cultural and linguistic study. This area will then be examined from three out of the following four perspectives:
In binary comparison with another culture
In regional perspective (i.e., beyond national borders)
In relation to global issues
Relating to ethnic diversity and diaspora
Core courses:
AMST 115 Introduction to American Studies: The Immigrant Experience and
CCST 100: Growing Up Cross-Culturally (recommended but not required) and
CCST 275: I'm a Stranger Here Myself and
POSC 170 International Relations and World Politics or POSC 236 Global, National and Human Security or POSC 358 Comparative Social Movements
Three courses from a least three of the four comparative categories listed above, to be selected from the list of pertinent courses available on the department Web site.
American students will also participate in an approved international program (one or more terms), in an area where a language related to their focus is spoken. International students are exempt from this requirement since Carleton is an off-campus experience for them, but they are also encouraged to go off campus.
Cross-Cultural Studies Courses
CCST 100. Growing Up Cross-Culturally First-year students interested in this program should enroll in this seminar. The course is recommended but not required for the concentration and it will count as one of the electives. From cradle to grave, cultural assumptions shape our own sense of who we are. This course is designed to enable American and international students to compare how their own and other societies view birth, infancy, adolescence, marriage, adulthood, and old age. Using children's books, child-rearing manuals, movies, and ethnographies, we will explore some of the assumptions in different parts of the globe about what it means to "grow up." 6 cr., AI, WR1, IS, FallS. Leonhard
CCST 208. International Coffee and News Have you just returned from Asia, Africa, Europe, or South America? This course is an excellent way to keep in touch with the culture (and, when appropriate, the language) you left behind. Relying on magazines and newspapers around the world, students will discuss common topics and themes representing a wide array of regions. You may choose to read the press in the local language, or read English-language media about your region, meeting once each week for conversational exchange. (Language of conversation is English.) Prerequisite: Students must have participated in at least one OCS program (Carleton or non-Carleton). 2 cr., S/CR/NC, HI, IS, Fall,Winter,SpringN. Tomonari
CCST 210. Global/Local Perspectives How do global processes affect local cultures (and vice versa)? How do transnational movements of people, goods, capital, images and ideas affect identities? Is it really possible to translate, compare, and converse across cultures? Such questions animate this course, which aims to expose CCST concentrators, as well as interested students in related majors and concentrations, to theories and methods in the interdisciplinary field variously called global studies or cross-cultural studies. To model interdisciplinary conversation and methods of inquiry, the course incorporates co-instructors and guest presenters from the humanities and social sciences and includes readings drawn from multiple disciplines. 6 cr., SI, IS, Not offered in 2014-2015.
CCST 270. Creative Travel Writing Workshop Travelers write. Whether it be in the form of postcards, text messages, blogs, or articles, writing serves to anchor memory and process difference, making foreign experience understandable to us and accessible to others. While examining key examples of the genre, you will draw on your experiences off-campus for your own work. Student essays will be critiqued in a workshop setting, and all work will be revised before final submission. Some use of blended media is also possible. Prerequisite: Must have participated in a Carleton or non-Carleton OCS program. 6 cr., S/CR/NC, ARP, WR2, WinterS. Carpenter
CCST 275. I'm A Stranger Here Myself What do enculturation, tourism, culture shock, "going native," haptics, cross-cultural adjustment, and third culture kids have in common? How do intercultural transitions shape identity? What is intercultural competence? This course explores theories about intercultural contact and tests their usefulness by applying them to the analysis of world literature, case studies, and the visual arts, and by employing students' intercultural experiences as evidence. From individualized, self-reflective exercises to community-oriented group endeavors, our activities will promote new intercultural paradigms in the classroom and the wider community. Course designed for off-campus returnees, students who have lived abroad, or who have experienced being outsiders. 6 cr., SI, IS, WinterÉ. Pósfay

Teens accused of throwing rocks at police squad car window | Crime
Three teens face charges in connection to series of broken windows, including one on a Sun Prairie Police Department squad car.
Police said they took several reports of damage to property between April 7 and April 30 involving rocks being thrown at residential and commercial windows in the north-central part of the city.
One of the incidents involved rocks being thrown at a Sun Prairie squad car, causing about $750 in damage, police said.
A 14-year-old boy and two 15-year-old boys, each of Sun Prairie, have been referred to the Dane County District Attorney's Office on charges of criminal damage to property.
Police said the teens are linked to seven separate incidents totaling about $3,000 in damage.
Residents with unreported damage involving broken windows during the time frame are encouraged to report them to the Sun Prairie Police Department at 608-837-7336.

The company celebrates its seventh birthday in December and, during the course of their formative years, has dramatically changed from the company that was formed through the merger of Ramm Pty Ltd and Yates Botanicals in 2002.
The company's product emphasis has moved to drought tolerant, low maintenance, colourful plants and shifted away from the more typical, thirsty flowering lines that were so popular pre-water restrictions.
This significant shift was only possible through a strong commitment to product development. Plant breeding and development of production protocols for Australian native plants has been guided by Angus Stewart, who has been involved in the Bush Gems program for over quarter of a century. Angus now has the support of six staff members in both laboratory and nursery to put his ideas into motion.
The company has also carried on the successful association with Nu Flora International, the company formed between Mal Morgan, Graham Brown and The University of Sydney. "Mal and Graham understand the needs of the market and they are developing world-class product which we are pleased to help develop and distribute globally", says Jeff.
Since 70% of Ramm Botanical's plant sales originate as tissue cultured plants, the company has become necessarily proficient at high volume laboratory production. To boost laboratory production capacity and help to price compete in international markets, off-shore production facilities have been established in Sri Lanka.
Company directors and co-owners Jeff Cooke and Ryan Weber both work full time in the business and they share a vision for the future. This is demonstrated through their commitment to plant breeding, representing Australian genetics in export markets and striving to be a world class marketing innovator in the ornamental plants.
Their company has accumulated multiple industry awards including NSW and national awards for Training, Export and Best Large Production Nursery.
Ramm Botanicals employs 90 staff shared equally between their two NSW Central Coast sites. The Tuggerah site houses sales and admin office, production and R&D laboratory and young plant nursery. Ten minutes away, their Somersby laboratory generates high volume tissue culture production for domestic and export markets. The majority of their production is with ornamental plants; however they also produce significant quantities of forestry and plantation crops.
"We really believe that our industry can play a major role in achieving a more sustainable lifestyle, says Jeff. "One very interesting project in progress is a testing phase of biodegradable pots made entirely from coconut fibre (coir) and rubber latex, both fully renewable resources. The plant should not be removed from the pot and can therefore be planted 'pot and all' because the open, honeycombed nature of the pot material allows root penetration of the side walls."
The company believes that integration of these biodegradable pots is a natural addition to their product range and very much in keeping with their overall objective of marketing products that enhance sustainability.

'Modern Family' shakes it up for Season 2
"Modern Family" will enter its second season trembling. Literally.
An episode early in the Emmy-nominated ABC show's second season will find the show's characters going through an earthquake and watching how each unit in the extended family reacts. "Earthquakes are on our minds," co-creator Steven Levitan told Zap2it at Monday's (July 19) Paley Center "Inside the Writers Room" event.
And, as Levitan says in the clip above, what's on the "Modern Family" writers' minds, or what happens in their lives, is what fuels a lot of the stories in the series. So in Season 2 you'll see Phil ( Ty Burrell) and Claire ( Julie Bowen) act out a running argument Levitan and his wife have over the quickest way to get home from a restaurant: "That race becomes a story," he says.
Viewers will also meet Cameron's ( Eric Stonestreet) mother in the new season, which should be a juicy guest role (the part hasn't been cast yet) -- but which won't be done just for the sake of getting a big guest star. "As those parts come up, if somebody really fits and it really feels great and organic, then we'll do it," Levitan said during the Paley panel. "But we're not going to do it just go get ratings." Pause. "Cut to Justin Bieber on our show."
Levitan doesn't want to fix what's not broken about the show, but he also says he and his team are "neurotic enough" to keep pushing to find the comedy in "Modern Family's" characters. That includes putting characters together in combinations we haven't seen yet.
"It's 'Who haven't we seen together?'" Levitan says. ""Let's put Haley [ Sarah Hyland] and Cameron together' -- those kinds of stories. That gives us a lot of room. There are a lot of combinations we haven't yet explored. And, you know, I just said that off the top of my head right now, but now I'm going, That's interesting. Haley and Cameron."
"Modern Family's" season premiere is scheduled for Wednesday, Sept. 22.

New MyDoom draws on IE flaw to spread

Microsoft debates spoofing as security flawNovember 2, 2004
Major browsers bitten by security bugsOctober 20, 2004
Pop-up toolbar spreads via IE flawsJune 9, 2004
The recently discovered vulnerability in the browser software allows the offshoot to infect a PC after a user clicks on a link, according to advisories from security software makers Symantec and McAfee. The program sneaks past antivirus applications that detect malicious software by scanning e-mail messages with attached programs.
The companies said they had only detected a few instances of the infector, which is labelled MyDoom.AG by McAfee and MyDoom.AH by Symantec.
"We have only received one submission from the field, but the technical aspects of this are concerning," said Craig Schmugar, senior virus research manager at McAfee. "It has all the components there to become a significant virus."
It's not the first time a code writer has exploited a flaw in a Microsoft product before the software giant has had a chance to plug the hole. An aggressive advertiser attempted to surreptitiously install a pop-up toolbar in victim's Web browsers using two previously unpatched security flaws in Internet Explorer.
Microsoft said that it was investigating the flaw and was aware of a new virus exploiting the issue.
"As a best practice, users should always exercise extreme caution when opening unsolicited attachments from both known and unknown sources," said Microsoft in a statement sent to CNET News.com. "In addition, we continue to encourage customers follow our 'Protect Your PC' guidance of enabling a firewall, getting software updates and installing antivirus software."
The latest MyDoom virus appears as an e-mail in an inbox. The body of the message states: "Look at my homepage with my last webcam photos!" or "FREE ADULT VIDEO! SIGN UP NOW!" Both messages have text that links them to a Web page generated by the virus and hosted on the infected computer that sent the e-mail.
When the victim clicks on the link, a Windows-based PC will call Internet Explorer and load a malicious Web page from the previously infected computer. The page contains the IFrame vulnerability recently publicized on security mailing lists. The virus uses the flaw to execute code on the victim's computer, infecting the system. The virus harvests e-mail addresses on the compromised system, sends out mail to spread the virus further, sets up a Web server and attempts to contact several Internet relay chat (IRC) servers as a way to notify the virus's creator of that a new system has been compromised.
The fact that the virus creates a Web server and uses that server to infect other systems is a significant departure from previous versions of MyDoom, and other viruses in general, Schmugar said.
"There was a decent amount of work that went into this," he said. "There was a good bit of attention (among security researchers) to the demo code (of this flaw). Someone grabbed the demo code and tweaked it quite a bit."
McAfee rates the program a low threat, but Schmugar said he thinks it might spread widely.

- It comes in as a link through email, and then downloads itself using HTTP. A firewall is totally useless here. Unless you completely blok HTTP, but then you could even just disconnect from the Internet, and then you also no longer need a firewall...
The remedies proposed by M$ aren't helping much... Their complete security approach is flawed.
And don't come arguing that M$ is most exposed because of their market penetration. There are countless programmers working for open source, don't tell me they all have only good intentions.
The only reason M$ is taking the heat is because they make it sooooooo easy.

- Firewalls
- Firewalls are really meant to keep hackers out of your system and help you control what programs access the internet. The product to use in this case would be your anti-virus software (along with common sense). By keeping your computer up-to-date you can reduce the risk of catching th3 virus.
- Like Link Flag
- up-to-date won't help...
- ...as M$ hasn't patched anything yet.
So the only thing that is still "valid" of their security approach is the antivir.
My approach is: ditch IE and you have a lot less worries

'Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23' Season 2 changes plus Cuba Gooding Jr. remains 'Guilty'Add to Favorites | Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23
If you haven't gotten enough TV news today, here are some snacks to digest. Happy Saturday!
James Van Der Beek's assistant, Luther, is one of the unsung heroes of "Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23," so it's only fitting that Ray Ford has been upped to a series regular for Season 2 of the snarky comedy. More screen time for this guy is definitely a good thing. [ THR]
"Friday Night Lights" and executive producer and genius Jason Katims has a new two-year deal with Universal TV. He'll stick around as executive producer of "Parenthood" while he works on developing new projects and on building his own production company. He's hired Michelle Lee as a development exec and plans to use "FNL" and "Parenthood" as the foundation of his business. "I'm very proud of these shows, and not only am I am proud of them creatively but of the environment we've set up as a place where people love to come to work, and that's the type of creative atmosphere I'd like to try to create at the company," he says. [ Deadline]
Erik Palladino of "ER" fame has been promoted to series regular status in the upcoming ABC genre drama "666 Park Avenue." Palladino guest starred in the pilot as Tony DeMeo, the doorman at the mysterious apartment building. [ Deadline]
Cuba Gooding Jr.'s pilot "Guilty" wasn't picked up by Fox at the upfronts, but it remains in contention for 2013. Warner Bros. TV has decided to pick up the options of some of the talent on the show, including Gooding, Jay Harrington, Eva Amurri Martino and Julian Morris. Sharon Leal's option was not extended. The Greg Berlanti project, written by Marc Guggenheim and directed by McG, is about a defense attorney who is wrongfully stripped of his legal license and is forced to go rogue to solve cases. [ Deadline]
"Dexter" alum Josh Cooke is headed to TVLand as one of the leads in their new sitcom "Brothers-in-Law." He plays Neil, a "regular Joe" who doesn't get along with his wife's twin sister's "eccentric" fiance. [ TV Line]

Junius Brutus Booth (May 1, 1796–November 30, 1852) was an English actor. He was the father of John Wilkes Booth (the assassin of U.S. President Abraham Lincoln), Edwin Booth (an exceptional actor in his own right), and Junius Brutus Booth, Jr., an actor and theatre manager.
Early in 1815, Junius met Marie Christine Adelaide Delannoy while boarding at her mother's home in Brussels. They eloped, marrying in London on May 18, 1815. Their first child, Amelia, was born October 5 of the same year, but died in infancy. Their only child to survive infancy, Richard Junius Booth, was born January 21, 1819.
Booth gained national renown with his performance in the title role of Richard III in 1817 at the Covent Garden Theatre. Critics compared his performances favorably with those of Edmund Kean, who was at that time the foremost tragedian in Britain. Indeed, partisans of these two actors would occasionally start rows at venues where the two were playing together. This did not however stop the two from performing in the same plays; Kean and Booth acted in several Shakespearian productions at the Drury Lane Theatre from 1817 to 1821.
In 1821, Booth ran off to the United States with Mary Ann Holmes, abandoning his wife and their young son. Booth and Mary Ann claimed to be married that year and settled near Bel Air, Maryland in a farmhouse which Booth later remodeled and named "Tudor Hall." He then embarked upon a thirty-year acting career that made him famous throughout the country. Booth traveled to such cities as Baltimore, Boston and New York; he was particularly acclaimed in New Orleans for his ability to perform in French.
In 1825-1826 and 1836-1837 Booth made tours of his native England. By 1831 he had become the manager of the Adelphi Theatre in Baltimore. His acclaim continued to grow throughout the rest of his life; Walt Whitman described him as "the grandest historian of modern times." Although his relationship with Mary Ann was happy, he lost four children, three in the same year (1833), and suffered from a combination of alcoholism and madness. This had a detrimental effect on his health, which declined steadily through his later years.
In 1846, his first wife learned of her husband's second family and left England for the United States. After years of unsuccessful attempts to break up his relationship with Mary Ann Holmes, she divorced him in 1851. On May 10, 1851, with the youngest of their ten children now eleven years of age, Junius finally legally married Mary Ann.
Throughout the year of 1852 he was involved in a tour of California with his sons Edwin Booth and Junius Brutus Booth, Jr., performing in San Francisco and Sacramento. On the return trip the pair again visited New Orleans for some engagements. On the steamboat ride from New Orleans to Cincinnati, Junius became ill from drinking impure river water. With no physician on board, he died after suffering five days of fever.

Oregon Dispute Resolution Conference Honors Bryan M. Johnston
The Willamette Center for Dispute Resolution will host the inaugural Oregon Dispute Resolution Conference Honoring Bryan M. Johnston on Saturday, April 4.
The goal of this conference is to increase productive collaboration between the many members of the Oregon dispute resolution community and to honor Bryan M. Johnston, a skilled negotiator and administrator who cared deeply about mediation, education and human services.
Johnston was a remarkable man, and he improved the state of Oregon in a variety of significant ways. Many people knew him as a successful mediator and lawyer; however, his reach extended far beyond dispute resolution. At various times he was also a law professor, interim president of Willamette University, dean of Willamette's Atkinson Graduate School of Management, a two-term Oregon State Representative, and interim director of the Oregon Department of Human Services Children, Adults and Families Division.
As befits a conference honoring Johnston, the first annual meeting of the conference will bring together practitioners and educators involved in different aspects of dispute resolution to discuss ways in which individuals and organizations can work together to improve the lives of all Oregonians. The schedule of events will consist of updates from groups actively involved in dispute resolution in Oregon and provide opportunities for participants to network and explore key interests and areas for collaboration.
Registration fees are $25 by Friday, March 20 and $40 thereafter up to the day of the event. Registration includes a continental breakfast and lunch.
For more information on the Oregon Dispute Resolution Conference [PDF], including registration by phone, please contact Reyna Meyers at 503-370-6046 or email@example.com.

Talk about fond memories. We stayed at an Agriturismo in Paestum in Campania years ago, when the kids were still small, and we had a wonderful time. The grounds were beautiful, the food was great, the other families staying at the inn were interesting, the Magnia Grecia ruins were excellent — and the Agriturismo has a herd of water buffaloes for mozzarella di bufala. Makes me wish the kids we younger again, and we could do it all over again.
Today on the cover of the NY Times is the face of a good-looking animal, and the story of a Silicon Valley consultant-turned-dairy-farmer named Craig Ramini, who is trying make world-class cheese from a small Marin community north of San Francisco. Near where I ran the Headlands 50. It's a small world.

You can also read the Forno Bravo photo journal on Mozzarella di Bufala production. Lot's of fun photos.
