The predictions have been made, and now it's time to see what Sony has in store for us. We're all 99.99% sure we're about to see Playstation 4 announced, or its alternatively named equivalent, and Sony's big announcement press conference begins at 6PM EST. For something this big, I presume they'll start on time.
I'll be liveblogging the event from here, and you can follow along with livestreams via Sony or Twitch. Our own Carol Pinchefsky is at the event, and you can follow her liveblog in addition to mine. I'm viewing from afar, just like most of you.
I'll likely start a few minutes before six, and the newest updates will be listed first in the post here. We're going old school, so you'll have to refresh the page to see the latest. I'll try to keep up as best I can, and I'd love to hear what you guys are thinking in the comments.
Here we go:
8:07 – I'll continue to ponder that strategic decision, but for now I'm signing off. Thanks to everyone who tuned in, and I'll have more condensed thoughts about all this tomorrow morning most likely, so check back.
8:04 – Well, they just answered my question. I guess we have to tune in to E3 where they'll announce a price and maybe actually show the system. I really have to question the idea of premiering a new console without either showing what it physically looks like or even hinting at a price. Even though there was a ton crammed into this evening, that ended on a rather sour note. You would think the finale would have been about the system itself, but they handed it to Bungie who didn't actually show much of anything new from their game anyway. Regardless of legnth, the presentation felt incomplete without the price/product at the end, even if we did see games, the controller and hear a vague release date. It might have been better to just do it all at E3 if they were going to leave out two pieces of the puzzle that were that important.
8:02 – Exclusive Destiny content for PS4. Not sure why four people needed to stand there to make that announcement, but okay.
8:00 - Livestream now down 20% of its audience. Length (two hours now) and neverending stream lag likely to blame. Is Sony even going to go to E3 after this? What will be left to talk about?
7:58 – Thank god, it is Bungie. So, were they saving all the goodies for today?
7:57 – It's Activision. I swear, this better be about Destiny and not Call of Duty 12.
7:56 – ONE LAST PUBLISHER. Who ya got?
7:54 – Oh god, it's Diablo 3. People will laugh, but after playing Torchlight on XBL, I'm fully on board that a game in this style can function quite well without a mouse and a million hotkeys. And remember, through a TON of patching, Diablo 3 is actually about 100x better now than it was at launch.
7:53 – PC fanboys are losing it right now. "Console game development is in our blood." What IS this going to be? I'm going with a resurrection of the long lost Starcraft: Ghost.
7:52 – Chris Metzen from…Blizzard? Well, that's unusual.
7:51 – Yes, it looks like a high tech Assassin's Creed, and that's not a bad thing at all.
7:48 – I'd hate to be the guy who has to write interesting 140 character backstories for ten thousand random NPCs in this game.
7:46 - New rule, you have 15 seconds to hype your game before you have to start showing gameplay footage.
7:44 – This is turning out to be a much longer press event than anyone anticipated. Nearly two hours in and we still haven't even laid eyes on the system. The Sony livestream has lost more than 10% of its audience.
7:43 – Yves Guillemot to talk about Watch_Dogs. I forgot how big that was at E3. Let's see some more of it!
7:40 – In the end it was indeed a demo, not an actual title. "What to expect from future properties." Then they brought out an entirely different guy to simply say they were developing a Final Fantasy title of the system. Well, duh. No name, no other info.
7:37 – This seems to be Final Fantasy meets Uncharted. Like, I'm pretty sure these guys literally have AK-47s.
7:35 – The problem with all this footage is you never know what's using the engine, and what's just a cutscene a lot of the time.
7:34 – Square Enix's turn. Final Fantasy or something else?
7:33 – One thing is clear from all these games, fire looks GREAT on the PS4.
7:32 – Medieval game codename "Deep Down." They love their codenames. This must be Erik Kain's GOTY 2014 due to the "Souls" resemblance.
7:30 – They've developed an entire new engine for PS4. Well, you'd kind of have to. It's codename is "Panta Rei." And whoa a NEW IP? Get out of town.
7:28 – Capcom introducing….what now?
7:27 - Every third party developer onboard with PS4. No big shock there.
7:23 - Actually looks pretty cool, though I bet it's a lot harder than it looks. The possibilities for Little Big Planet and Minecraft are endless.
7:22 – Annnd I spoke too soon. Showing the Move controller as a tool to virtually draw and sculpt stuff. At least you're not waggling it around.
7:19 – I'm really liking the complete lack of movement-based games here.
7:18 – QD showing a creepy old man head that uses at least twice the polygons we saw in Heavy Rain. No actual footage however from Singularity, which is what we thought we'd see. That's a bit disappointing.
7:17 – Cage describing gaming as the next evolution of film. It's an idea I can get behind.
7:16 – FYI, our man on the ground, David Ewalt, says that they'll likely wait until the end to show the console and the price.
7:15 – Here's the one we've been waiting for. David Cage with Quantic Dream.
7:13 – Puzzle game on a mysterious island called Witness. Looks like an updated Myst. I think we can all applaud that concept.
7:10 – Just kidding, it's Braid's Jonathan Blow. Much better.
7:09 – Developers with "unique visions." BRING OUT THE MOLYNEUX.
7:06 – Oh, it's actually an Infamous game, "Second Son." Cool cutscene, I guess.
7:05 – I feel like he's describing "Heroes: The Game." Rather, it's Sucker Punch (Infamous) with an exclusive PS4 title about superheroes. Stick with what you know I suppose.
7:04 – Stream. Lag. Is. (buffering) Killing. This.
7:00 – They modeled every fleck of paint and each fiber of carbon. For Elder Scrolls VI, will we see the heat rash pimples caused by leather armor chafing?
6:59 – Stream has finally stopped buffer glitching, but now its broadcasting at about 8 fps. It's practically unbearable.
6:58 – How are you going to make a "coordinated team racing game" and not have it be Fast and Furious branded? Come on!
6:57 – Driveclub, new racing game for PS4. Guess they got tired of Gran Turismo making a new game only every decade or so.
6:53 – The livestream just isn't high enough quality to properly convey what this will look like. Without being able to experience the visuals first hand, it's all a bit…generic.
6:51 – When viewing any of these games, as good as they look now, remember how much titles can grow over time using the same architecture. Compare say, Perfect Dark Zero near the launch of the Xbox 360 to Gears of War 3 years later. They're worlds apart graphically.
6:47 – Pretty gorgeous, unfortunately this is the week we all learned not to trust demo footage thanks to A:CM
6:46 – Guerilla Games showing an actual title. It's Killzone…Shadowfall. No more numbers!
6:45 – Michael Denny speaking now from Worldwide studios. An accent with gravitas.
6:45 – This is a very long, very vague 3rd party support video. I think Nintendo might have actually gotten more gaming A-listers for theirs.
6:43 – They're talking a lot about downloading games, playing before the download is done, etc. They're not eliminating discs entirely, are they? Nothing has been said either way so far.
6:42 – Having this much lag on the livestream is doing no favors to the "fastest gaming network" they're current trying to pitch.
6:41 - Slightly odd we haven't seen what the system looks like yet. Perhaps that's the grand finale?
6:40 – Lag and sound drop-out starting to become an issue on stream.
6:36 – Direct assault on the Wii U incoming. "Remote play" with pictures of Vita, tablets and phones. But to be fair, a Vita + a PS4 will cost wayyy more than a Wii U and the tablet controller that comes with it.
6:36 – You can get your friend to help your noob self through a tough part of a game by virtually handing them your controller.
6:34 – Livestream spectating through PS4 directly. Twitch will be bummed, since this is Ustream based it seems.
6:32 – Shoot, I thought we'd be able to go an entire tech presentation without mentioning Facebook.
6:30 – "When your friend buys a game you'll instantly know and can jump in and start playing with them." Ehhhhh.
6:29 – Co-founder of Gaikai coming now, David Perry. Here comes "the cloud."
6:28 – Preorders taken to a new level as Playstation 4 can predict what games you like and download the sequels for you ahead of time. Oh god.
6:26 – Expected "socially connected" spiel where you can browse the dashboard via your smartphone or tablet. Hopefully that means they won't have their own tablet peripheral (cough cough Wii U)
6:26 – Instantly edit and upload gameplay footage of any game as you play. The amount of YouTube clips of games will jump by 10,000% most likely, if they're not all taken down for copyright infringement that is.
6:24 – You can play games you're currently downloading. Are they going to announce something streaming related soon?
6:23 – You can instantly pause and resume the system. Not the game, the system. No more console boot time.
6:21 – Knack it is. Creature made up of a whole bunch of tiny objects to demonstrate the capabilities of PS4.
6:20 – Cerny is personally directing a title, new IP. Knack? Neck? I'm not sure yet.
6:20 – Unreal 4 tech demo has prety ice monsters and explosions. Also, system memory GDDR 5. 167 GB/s bandwidth.
6:18 – New Dualshock, does indeed have a touchpad, integrated Move-ish capability. Does indeed look like some of the early leak photos we saw.
6:16 – X86 CPU, Enhanced PC GPU, 8 GB Unified memory. Believe most of this was predicted.
6:15 – Development goes all the way back to 2008 for the PS4. Have to really plan ahead with this sort of thing.
6:13 – Goals for PS4 team – "Nothing comes between platform and the joy of playing." Also wanted to hear from developers, and wanted to know what was important to them specifically.
6:12 – Mark Cerny, lead system architect coming on stage.
6:09 – And there it is, PLAYSTATION 4! Stick with what works, I suppose. No images yet.
6:07 – "The demands for a new platform were clear." This IS a new console announcement this evening, in case there were still any doubters in the house.
6:05 – He's talking about expanding the Playstation Vita's uses. Not the opening I imagined.
6:03 – Andrew House on stage. "The living room is not the central focus of the Playstation, the gamer is."
6:02 – Big stage, cool intro video. They've definitely created their own E3 level event here.
6:00 – Starting right on time, and now lag free, thank god.
5:59 – We have music, though it appears to be from an unaired Seinfeld episode in the '90s.

State senators host forum on JEDZ billWritten by Duane Ramsey | | firstname.lastname@example.com
State Senators Edna Brown and Randy Gardner hosted a public forum on Ohio House Bill 289 that seeks to reform options with respect to Joint Economic Development Zones (JEDZ) on April 25 at the Holiday Inn French Quarter in Perrysburg.
HB 289, as passed by a vote of 89-8 in the House, would eliminate any future zones but possibly grandfather in existing zones. The bill is currently before the Senate Finance Committee and is likely to be amended in the Senate, said Gardner, who said there are currently eight to 10 different variations of the bill as working documents in the Senate.
The Finance Committee meets again next week and would likely review the bill. Gardner, a Republican, expects a version of HB 289 could come to the Senate floor by the end of May.
"This issue is so vitally important to this area of Northwest Ohio. We are vigilant and monitoring the situation," said Brown, a Democrat who is the Senate Minority Whip.
If the Senate passes it, that bill would go back to the House for concurrence. If the House doesn't concur, it would go to a conference committee of the House and Senate, said State Rep. Barbara Sears, who voted for HB 289 and was present at the public forum.
Brown, Gardner and Sears said the house bill on JEDZs came about due to abuse of the zones in the central and southern parts of Ohio, with House Majority Leader Sears noting that zones are being used correctly in Northwest Ohio.
"The purpose of this forum is to allow people to let us know how they feel about the bill," Gardner said.
"We've gotten more feedback from this part of the state than any other part since the bill was passed by the House," Brown said.
About 10 people from the crowd of about 50 in attendance spoke at the forum. One email received by Gardner's office from Steve Serchuk, a local commercial real estate developer who encouraged the senators to vote no or guarantee the continuation of existing JEDZs in Ohio, was read at the forum.
Eileen Granata, law director for the City of Toledo, read a statement from Toledo Mayor D. Michael Collins who was unable to attend the forum. She reported that Collins and his chief of staff had already testified on the bill in Columbus.
"While the City of Toledo views HB 289 as having a negative impact on our ability to collaborate with our partners, this process has demonstrated that the Ohio General Assembly is willing to listen to the concerns of communities like Toledo," Collins stated in his letter to Brown and Gardner.
"The City of Toledo believes that the economic stability of not just the City, but the region, will be determined by our ability to collaborate with our neighbors," Collins stated.
Michael Beasley, administrator for the City of Oregon, told the senators that a JEDZ is one of few tools available to help communities compete for jobs.
"It's about jobs and revenue for communities in Northwest Ohio. We need more tools not fewer tools," Beasley said.
"You don't throw away the entire tool, you fix the tool," said Andy Glenn, chairman of the Springfield Township trustees. He reported that township has benefited from the major development at I-475 and Airport Highway due to the JEDZ with the City of Toledo.
Sheila McAdams, an attorney representing Spencer Township and former law director for the City of Maumee, said the JEDZs help avoid annexation battles and encourage cooperation among the various government units.
McAdams said the JEDZ the township has with the Village of Whitehouse created the only significant development in the township. It has provided substantial benefits for the businesses and residents of the community with revenues from it helping to pay for ambulance, fire and police services.
Angela Kuhn, mayor of Whitehouse, concurred believing the bill would have a negative impact on income and economic development for that village if the JEDZ was discontinued.
Chuck Hershel, a Monclova Township trustee and chairman of the JEDZ with the township and the cities of Maumee and Toledo, cited the revenues the township received and services improved. Monclova Township receives about $275,000 in revenue from the JEDZ and has used it to purchase a new $500,000 ladder truck for the fire department and toward police services provided by the Lucas County Sheriff's Department. Hershel said that Maumee and Toledo have provided infrastructure that has benefit the JEDZ there.
However, not everyone agrees that the JEDZ has benefited business and the community there.
"We pay for all those services with our property taxes and then we get taxed with another 1.5 percent by the zone with no support. We have received nothing back from it," said Dave Jankowski, owner of Jann's Netcraft, a business located within the JEDZ in Monclova Township.
Peter Ujvagi, a former state representative and now chief of policy and legislation for Lucas County, said JEDZs have increased regional cooperation in Northwest Ohio.
"Hopefully, the message gets back to Columbus how serious this issue is," Ujvagi said.
Gardner encouraged people to email his office with their comments and input on HB289 and JEDZs at email@example.com.

The Georgetown County Sheriff's Office arrested former county Economic Development Director Wayne Gregory, charged with embezzlement.
Gregory, 36, has been working as the economic director in Columbia.
According to Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Carrie Cuthbertson, about a month ago investigators were notified by the Georgetown County Administrator's Office concerning a number of fraudulent purchases made by Gregory.Cuthbertson said the investigation revealed that between January 2010 and September 2013, Gregory "did use a Georgetown County purchasing card to misappropriate funds from Georgetown County."
Investigators have determined that during his employment, Gregory was able to
embezzle more than $100,000 from Georgetown County and convert said funds for his own personnel use," she said. Investigators traveled to Columbia today and met with Gregory at his residence where he was interviewed. Investigators, with assistance from the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division and the Columbia Police Department executed a search warrant at Gregory's apartment. As a result of the investigation, Gregory was arrested and charged with Embezzlement of Public Funds over $10,000.00. Gregory is currently being transported to the Georgetown County Detention Center to await a bond hearing.

"A 10 minute surface street trip took 20 minutes on two freeways"
All the construction and detours on Warren Ave, Mission Blvd, and other highways caused the wedding party and guests significant inconvenience in arriving at Palmdale Estates. A 10 minute surface street trip took 20 minutes on two freeways. I will avoid Fremont until construction is over!!!!!

The problem of predicting climate change and its consequences is motivated by the increasingly urgent need to adapt to near term trends in climate change and the potential changes in the frequency and intensity of extreme events. This project is developing the scientific framework to determine the benefit of employing very-high-resolution global models to investigate regional-scale phenomena. The team will test the hypothesis that higher resolution models are necessary to accomplish the related objectives of 1) the explicit simulation of non-linear phenomena and interactions on the small scale that have feedbacks on large scale climate features; and 2) the accurate and explicit simulation of local to regional scale phenomena, including low-probability, high-impact hydrological events. The focus will be sarigorous evaluation of our hypothesis with high-resolution simulations of observed climate and variability will be the focus. Using a series of stand-alone component and ensemble coupled present-day climate simulations, the project partners will perform comparisons of high- and low-resolution model configurations to determine the potential advantages of high resolution simulations. They will investigate the role of air-sea interaction, the quality of the basic state, and resolution sensitivity on a hierarchy of modes of variability, including the distribution and evolution of extreme events in control, historical, and time-slice experiments of future climate change. An integral component of this project will be the development of new objective diagnostics and metrics to gauge the potential benefit of employing high resolution to improve the representation of regional scale phenomena, especially those related to the hydrological cycle.
The pathway to the project's goals requires an improved understanding of critical sensitivities in model formulation that have been identified from preliminary very-high resolution coupled simulations. Our experimental protocol will enable the project team to investigate these sensitivities, which include the interaction of physics with the choice of dynamical core of the atmospheric model and the initialization of the ocean model, both of which contribute to the development of model biases relative to observations. Implicit on this pathway toward developing a more realistic very-high resolution coupled model for regional projections of climate change will be the exploration of the benefit of very-high resolution contributed by the atmospheric and ocean models, respectively.

DENVER — A three-headed scoring effort keyed Whitko's boys basketball team to a Three Rivers Conference victory Friday.
The Wildcats defeated North Miami on the road by a final score of 45-41. It was the second consecutive league win for Whitko.
The Wildcats were lifted by a 43-point effort from three of its players. Senior Gabe Powell led the way with 18 points on a 58 percent shooting effort. Stephen Bennett was also over 50 percent from the floor on his way to 13 points, and Dylan Cumberland paced the team at the charity stripe — knocking down nine free throws and the Wildcats' lone 3-pointer to end up with 12. Alex Stoddard scored two.
Bennett also keyed the Wildcat effort with 13 rebounds and Powell had nine boards. Cumberland led the squad in assists with five.
Whitko jumped out to a 24-16 halftime lead and increased the margin to double-digits at 32-22 after three periods. North Miami was able to close the gap, but Whitko held on in the fourth to bring the game to its final score.
The win lifts the Wildcats to a record of 4-12. North Miami is now 1-15. Conference-wise, Whitko is 2-4 and North Miami is 0-6.
Whitko is turning into a squad of road warriors, having defeated Wabash in a thriller, 74-72. The team closes the league slate with a game this Saturday at home against Rochester at 2:30 p.m.

Vitucci: Walleye will be strong on offenseWritten by Toledo Free Press Staff Writers | | email@example.com
By Holly Tuey
Hockey season is right around the corner and for Toledo Walleye fans that means a season of cheering for both new and familiar faces at the Huntington Center.
Practices started for the team Oct. 7, and head coach Nick Vitucci said the team is looking forward to the weeks ahead.
"We're obviously very excited," Vitucci said. "Last year was a fun year for us, getting in the playoffs. Although we lost to Cincinnati in the first round, it was an exciting round. We showed a lot of fight, a lot of heart and it's something we want to build on this coming year."
Vitucci said the first goal for the team is to get everyone comfortable and used to the Walleye approach. With half the players new to the roster, which Vitucci said is typical, the chemistry of the team may call for some initial adjustment.
"The challenge is to get everybody as a unit of one rather than individually as 20," Vitucci said. "That comes from finding the right players, not just talent-wise, but attitude-wise and personality-wise."
Two of those new faces are not new to the Toledo area. Forwards Tyler Pilmore and Alden Hirschfeld are both from Sylvania. Pilmore played the last couple games of last season with the Walleye. Vitucci said he had attended the team's free agent camp the previous year and was invited back.
"He's just a fantastic kid," Vitucci said. "He works his tail off every day, and he'll bring a lot of speed and a great work ethic to our lineup."
Hirschfeld played his first year professionally last year, split between the American Hockey League and the ECHL. Vitucci said he's a highly skilled player with a great work ethic.
"[He's] another really good team person that we're looking to add in our lineup and play in all key situations," Vitucci said.
The coach said he's a little concerned about defense for the coming season. The Walleye lost strong player Wes O'Neill to retirement and Phil Oreskovic will miss the first few weeks of the season as he recovers from shoulder surgery.
"There's a question of how solid we're going to be on that line, but we're trying to work frantically to fix that and get the proper personnel in here," he said.
On the other hand, Vitucci said he is very enthusiastic about the entire forward unit this season.
"I think it brings a lot of speed, a lot of skill, experience, but youthful enthusiasm, as well," he said.
The first season exhibition game is Oct. 12. Coach Vitucci said the coaching staff uses preseason games to observe the players they still want to evaluate outside of practice.
Captains Kyle Rogers and Phil Oreskovic will be among the players to keep an eye on, as well as fan favorite Cody Lampl, Vitucci said. Fans can look forward to seeing several other returning players as well as some new faces.
"A lot [of players] fans won't be familiar with, but they'll get familiar with in a hurry," Vitucci said.
Vitucci said the Walleye are fortunate to have a first-class organization and facility in Toledo, as well as support from the community.
"We have great fan support," he said. "We're looking forward to putting a product on the ice that they can be proud of."
The home opener is Oct. 26 against the Wheeling Nailers. Fans can come early for the FinFest Pregame Party, which will feature a live band and a pep talk from Vitucci, or stay for a postgame party with the players.

Here is a product review from Mel in our Web Development Department!
In August DiscountRamps.Com got in a brand new product called the RBX-3873 Cargo Roof Box. I happened to have a trip planned up to Harshaw WI, approximately 247 miles north of Milwaukee near Rhinelander, to visit my wife's grandmother who lives at her family's lake house. My wife and I recently purchased a 2009 Nissan Murano, and while it was a big bump up in storage capacity compared to our Toyota Camry, with a growing family space is definitely at a premium. I figured this would be a perfect opportunity to test out our new Roof Box and get some beautiful product shots for the website!
My Murano came equipped with the factory side rails but not cargo roof bars which would be needed to install the roof box. After looking through some of the cargo roof bars DiscountRamps.Com carries, I decided the RB-1004-49 Carbon Steel Roof Bars would do the trick and look good at the same time.
The night before our trip I installed the cargo bars and roof box and we were set. On this trip the roof box wouldn't be used for luggage, but for four bushes that needed to be brought up north to be planted. Our luggage fit inside the vehicle just fine, and the bushes fit perfectly inside the roof box keeping the dirt out of our vehicle.
The four hour drive up was uneventful and I forgot the roof box was even up there. The next morning after our arrival I unloaded the bushes and cleaned out the little bit of dirt that had fallen off of the roots during the drive. Throughout the weekend I'd put stuff in the roof box that I didn't necessarily have room for or want in the vehicle. The push button latch system works just as it should and keeps the box closed up tight even at freeway speeds. I really liked the gas hydraulic shocks that lift the lid once you open the latch. The box is the perfect size too. A weekends worth of camping gear and luggage would be no problem for the roof box. The rest of the weekend the roof box performed flawlessly and it looked pretty cool up there.
All-in-all I was very pleased with the ease of use, the look, and the quality of the roof box over the 3 days of use. The RBX-3873 Cargo Roof Box is a serious bargain at $299.99 compared to some of the other roof boxes on the market that can cost considerably more.
Thanks for sharing Mel!

- Strategic Plan Executive Summary
Foundations and Facelifts
Since the College's founding, Cornell has recognized the need for first-class facilities that support our programs in teaching, research, and patient care. Accommodation of expanding clinical and research demands led to the College's relocation from central to east campus in the 1950s and the subsequent creation of what was then the new hospital and teaching complex in the 1990s. However, historic Schurman Hall and James Law auditorium, where students learned anatomy, had tutorials, did student surgeries, attended larger lectures, and put on musicals, dance performances, skits, and auctions, had not changed much since their completion in 1957 and were badly in need of rejuvenation.
The College has initiated the first capital project within our teaching complex in more than two decades, including the first comprehensive renovation of Schurman Hall in more than five decades. The project has been prioritized within the SUNY capital plan and comprises an exciting rethinking of our original academic building.
As an anchor at the east end of Tower Road and the main doorway to our university collaborators, this is a major project for the College of Veterinary Medicine and the University and one that promises to begin an extended revitalization of our teaching spaces that will enhance student facilities; decompress overcrowded lecture halls; enhance interactions between students, faculty, and staff; and enable exciting demonstrations and public meetings that are secure from our hospital activities.
A history of change
Cornell's College of Veterinary Medicine was originally housed in the middle of campus, in what is now Ives Hall. At the time, the building was one of the most innovative and spacious veterinary facilities in the country, serving a total of approximately 300 students and faculty and supporting the entire teaching, research, and service needs of a program mainly dedicated to large animal medicine. Since then, the College has grown and diversified to meet society's changing needs.
Dean George C. Poppensiek spearheaded the construction of the Veterinary Research Tower, which opened in 1974, and Dean Edward Melby fought courageously for a new teaching hospital that was critical to preserving the College's standing and meeting the challenges and opportunities of expanding clinical programs. And after many years of planning, the New York State Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory opened in 2010, uniting multiple diagnostic services that had been in separate facilities.
Currently many of the College's major teaching facilities, including tutorial rooms and spaces dedicated to teaching anatomy and student surgery, still reside in the original 1957 structure, which desperately needs renovation and is served by mechanical systems that are beyond their lifespan. Locker rooms and bathrooms that were appropriate for the gender distribution of classes in 1957 are currently augmented by temporary facilities. And the move of necropsy, histopathology, and parasitology from Schurman Hall and the "Old DL" to the new Animal Health Diagnostic Center building left more than 30,000 square feet of unoccupied space in the core of our complex, space that remains unused and unusable.
Plans for the future
We have embarked on a design and construction process that will reshape the College's foundation and shape its future. The vision outlined in our plan includes a two-phased process that will first create new classrooms, an atrium, presentation space, gender-appropriate student lockers, bathrooms, and other facilities, followed by a comprehensive restructuring of Schurman Hall, including student surgery, tutorial spaces, and the currently unoccupied necrospy and old diagnostic lab areas. The renovations will improve security and separation between teaching and patient areas and accommodate a modest increase in the number of students enrolled in the first three years. It will also enable redesign of some of our currently overcrowded lecture halls to more interactive teaching spaces for elective courses and create an appropriate demonstration venue for the many educational and scientific meetings held at the College (including the NYSVMS/ Cornell Annual Conference, the College Open House, and many other outreach events).
What has been termed the "Class Expansion Project," because it will size the pre-clinical classes to the capacity of our hospital, is a wonderful opportunity to preserve and integrate the old and the new. I encourage alumni and friends to visit Sage Hall, Duffield Hall, Milstein Hall, and the Physical Sciences building as examples of the creative adaptive re-use that we envision.
I am extraordinarily grateful to Cornell's President, David Skorton, Provost Kent Fuchs, and other members of the University's leadership team for their support, which was critical in our recent successful efforts to have the first phase of this plan prioritized at the University level. The entire project will take between five and six years, but after slightly more than half a century, the grand but aging Schurman Hall will be transformed, and we will again have a teaching facility that enables our faculty and students to meet the challenges of the future.

Oh, and trying to fit in some kind of a personal life when not working on my startup or at my parttime job. .. I'm always on the lookout for tools to improve my productivity! :)
I used to use DateBk5 on my Palm, but have found nothing, except possibly Due to take its' place!
I need to keep track of many things for my retail store:Sales and Use Tax-once a quarter, Rent once a month, payroll twice a month, reconciliation of checking account twice a week and weekly food shopping. Not to mention other personal bills on a weekly and monthly basis like mortgage and car payments!!!

Science Matters
Keeping an Eye on Wetlands
EPA researchers develop ways to study, assess, and report on the state of the nation's wetlands.
If you appreciate ducks and other waterfowl, fish, seafood, and natural flood control and water filtration, you are already a fan of wetlands. Defined by ecologists as those habitats where the degree of water saturation largely determines the make-up of the species living in the ecosystem and the types of soil found, wetlands provide many ecological, economic, and social benefits.
A few centuries ago, the continental United States had more than 220 million acres of wetlands. Today, less than half remain.
Reducing the loss of wetlands is one of EPA's goals in meeting its mission to protect human health and the environment. To that end, Agency scientists and their partners provide the critical data, analysis, and assessments used to monitor the status and trends of the Nation's wetlands.
EPA provides the scientific foundation for the reports and publications that wetlands managers and other decision makers rely on to better protect wetland resources.
Report on the Environment
The Report on the Environment (ROE) presents a collection of more than 80 environmental indicators useful for understanding general trends in the condition of water, as well as air, land, human health and exposure, and ecological condition.
The Report's water chapter covers a range of regional and national water issues, including providing key information on Wetland Extent, Change and Sources of Change.
National Coastal Condition Report IV
Released by EPA, The National Coastal Condition Report, describes the ecological and environmental conditions in U.S. coastal waters, including coastal wetlands. The report summarizes the condition of ecological resources in the Nation's coastal waters and highlights several exemplary federal, state, tribal, and local programs that assess coastal ecological and water quality conditions.
Status and Trends of Wetlands in the Conterminous United States
The report represents the most comprehensive and contemporary effort to track wetlands resources at a national scale. When paired with EPA's National Wetland Condition Assessment (see below), "Status and Trends" will provide the public and government agencies with comparable, national information on wetland quantity and quality.
EPA scientists have been working since 2007 to advance the science behind wetland assessments through the National Wetland Condition Assessment (NWCA), which, when complete, will provide a comprehensive statistical survey of the quality of the Nation's wetlands.
"This is the first time a network of partners has been brought together to develop standardized, uniform assessment techniques that will lead to statistically-valid estimates of the ecological condition of wetlands on a national level," says EPA ecologist and wetlands expert Mary Kentula, Ph.D.
In the first phase, Kentula and her EPA colleagues worked to develop those techniques with partners from other federal agencies (including the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, USDA National Resource Conservation Service, National Park Service, U.S. Forest Service and NOAA's National Estuarine Research Reserve Program), states, Tribes, and others. The process was also designed to foster collaboration and help implement wetland monitoring programs that would benefit all the partners and support local decision makers.
That work was put into practice this past summer, when 55 field crews surveyed some 1,250 wetland sites across the contiguous U.S. and Alaska. The 33,000 or so samples the field crews collected are now being analyzed by different labs across the country, with completion expected in fall 2012.
Following peer review and a public comment period, EPA is scheduled to release a final wetlands assessment in December 2013.
When complete, NWCA will present a significant advancement in the understanding of wetland quality nationwide, providing resource managers and decision makers with critical information they need to better protect the function and integrity of the nation's wetlands for current and future generations.
Ultimately, the impact of that work will be evident by the presence of waterfowl, fish, seafood, natural flood control and water filtration, and other benefits of the nation's wetlands.

Students from Christ Our King-Stella Maris School competed recently in the Southern Region Gathering (qualifying event for the Irish Dance Championship) held Nov. 30-Dec. 2, 2012 in New Orleans. Third grader McKenna Young represented Glor Na Daire Academy of Irish Dance.
Though it was Young's first experience dancing at this level and she is the youngest dancer to ever represent Charleston at this event, she danced admirably and was a big part of her team's success. Not yet old enough to qualify for the World Championships, Young is being considered for inclusion in her team's National Championship team. She has a promising future in Irish dance with Glor na Daire and with her hard work and dedication, she will continue as a rising star in the program.

Man charged with prescription fraudsJanuary 31,2013A Pennsylvania man who police say was shopping for doctors who would prescribe him with pain medication denied five felony charges Monday.
John D. Harper, 41, of Leesport, Penn., pleaded innocent in Rutland criminal court to five counts of prescription fraud. He was released on court-ordered conditions.
Vermont State Police Detective T.L. Hodsden wrote in a court affidavit that Harper obtained prescriptions for opiate-based pain medications from a dozen doctors and dentists in the Rutland, Ludlow, Bennington and Keene, N.H. areas last year.
Harper allegedly filled those prescriptions at eight different pharmacies spread across Rutland and Bennington counties.
In Rutland County alone, Hodsden said Harper filled 17 prescriptions for pain medications between April and June of last year.

Review: Nexus 10 tablet is a solid house built on shifting sands
Is the Nexus 10 a 10-inch Android tablet we can believe in?
Andrew Cunningham
Specs at a glance: Google/Samsung Nexus 10Screen2560Ã?1600 10.055" (300 ppi) PLS touchscreenOSAndroid 4.2 "Jelly Bean"CPU1.7GHz Samsung Exynos 5 DualRAM2GBGPUARM Mali-T604Storage16 or 32GB NAND flashNetworking802.11a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, NFCPortsMicro USB, Micro HDMI, headphones, docking connectorSize10.39" x 6.99" x 0.35"(263.9 x 177.6 x 8.9 mm)Weight1.33 lbs (603 g)Battery9000 mAhStarting price$399 ($499 for 32GB)Price as reviewed$399SensorAmbient light sensor, GPS,Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Compass, BarometerOther perksPower adapterOne of the reasons we liked the Nexus 7 so much was that it felt like a 7-inch tablet done right. Neither the form factor nor the $199 price point were new'Samsung, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and others were all pushing 7-inch Android tablets'but the ASUS-Google joint was the first whose hardware, software, and price came together to make a convincing case for a smaller tablet.
The Google-backed, Samsung-developed Nexus 10 has no such luxury'not only is the 10-inch tablet market Apple's bread and butter, but competition from new Windows 8 and Windows RT tablets as well as other Android tablets is so stiff (and the signal-to-noise ratio is so low) that it's hard to stand out from the crowd. Further complicating matters is the fact that going all the way back to the Motorola Xoom, 10-inch Android tablets have had trouble gaining a foothold in the market, creating a dearth of tablet apps that is more noticeable on a 10-inch screen than a 7-inch screen.
The Nexus 10 is the first 10-inch tablet to bear Google's Nexus branding, and as such it has its work cut out for it: not only does it need to be a shining example of what a big Android tablet should be, it needs to convince developers and potential buyers alike that Android can offer as good an experience on a larger screen as its competitors can. Does it succeed, or is this just another 10-inch Android tablet that doesn't live up to its promise?

• teaching and learning strategies to engage students in high quality teaching;
• evaluation of health promotion strategies and pedagogies.
Briefing paper/background document 50% - The purpose of this assessment is to enable students to engage with the broader context of health education. It requires students to prepare a briefing paper that will provide the background and rationale for the inclusion of a chosen area of health education study. This task provides the opportunity to consolidate knowledge in health education and develop a coherent, informed document that both draws from, and applies, contemporary literature in the field.
Curriculum Mapping and Development 50% - The information researched and presented in the briefing paper is to be used in assessment two to provide background information to shape and plan a unit of work specific to Health Education in the classroom.

Go LA!!
Glendale, CA (former home of one of our esteemed members - no, not me) just passed a civil ordinance to stop the LA Gun Show, which has been there since the '90's. It will happen this March and then no more. No more gun shows in Glendale at all.
I guess if the federal government won't do anything, some local governments will.

Olympic Profile: Sedef Koktenturk, Investment Management Division, London
Text Size
Sedef Koktenturk works in our Investment Management Division in London and joined Goldman Sachs in 2004. In the 2008 Beijing Olympics, she competed in the Women's RS-X windsurfing event as a member of the Turkish team. We spoke with her about the Olympics experience.
Q: When did you start windsurfing and what led you to the Olympics?
Sedef: I started windsurfing when I was eight years old and competing when I was 11. I wanted to compete in the Olympic Games in Barcelona in 1992, which was the first time windsurfing became an Olympic event, but I broke my wrist in 1990 and withdrew from the sport for a while. In 2006, they changed the equipment and there was an opportunity for me to get back into the sport. At the time I was working at Goldman in New York.
Q: What was one of the biggest challenges for you?
Sedef: I had always been good at what I had done, both at the firm and in my other endeavors, and I came to the Olympic scene at the bottom of the pack. Every day was a challenge, because everyone's improving, so you just have to improve relatively better than the other people. I knew that I had to really ramp up my training to be in top shape by the Olympics and to continue at that high level, but the biggest challenge was to keep positive and focused mentally in such an intense environment.
Q: How would you compare competing at sports vs. competing in business?
Sedef: Competing in sports and business is very similar in the way that they both require self motivation, hard work, and intense discipline. The biggest difference between Olympic sports and Goldman Sachs is that there is more than one winner in business and at GS you work with many smart people to get to success. In racing and in sports, there's only one first place and the road to success is relatively lonely. You can't share the mental ups and downs with anybody, whereas at Goldman especially, we work in teams. There's a camaraderie that's built, and that helps get through the ups and the downs. It's made me realize how much I enjoy working in teams and working with like-minded people.
Q: Are there any lessons from your Olympic experience that you could share with people at the firm?
Sedef: I came away with three main lessons. First, to just do it. We tend to over analyze before making decisions, but sometimes just trying is the first step to success. You need to believe anything is possible and do the best you can. Second, be open to change, nothing lasts forever. We sometimes over plan for the future, but nothing (good or bad) is forever. You have to be open to changes in circumstances and embrace the opportunities that brings, as well as the journey. Lastly, life is never as black and white as sports. Success is relative to your situation, circumstances and opportunities.
