This is a division of application Ser. No. 078,942, filed Sept. 26, 1979 and now abandoned.
The invention concerns an electrical layer capacitor which can be regenerated. Metal layers serving as coatings and insulating material layers of dielectrics are arranged one over another in alternating fashion upon a carrier of insulating material. The metal layers of one coating extend to one side of the capacitor and those of another coating extend to the other side of the capacitor and extend beyond the dielectric layers. Border regions of the metal layers of the coatings extend beyond the dielectric layers and are arranged one over the other without insulating layers in between. The border region of the coating is connected with the associated lead element in electrically conductive fashion. Said coating comprises all metallisations of one polarity which are joined together.
A capacitor construction of this sort is known from British Patent 970,865. There, a carrier is used into which lead elements are set. The metal surfaces of the coatings are evaporated such that they encompass in each case a lead element. Metal compounds which are produced upon each metal layer serve as dielectric layers.
The construction according to the state of the art is not capable of being regenerated and is not suitable for miniaturization since the lead elements have their largest extension in the direction of the carrier. And since the carrier must have significant solidity, a significant thickness is required in order to contain the mechanical forces which occur at the lead elements during the processing. Besides this, a satisfactory insulating layer cannot be realized without difficulties because of conversion of the metal into a metal compound upon a thin metal coating. A self-healing capacitor cannot be produced in this manner.
It is an object of the present invention to have significantly smaller dimensions in the case of a capacitor of the kind specified above, to achieve a capacitor which is suitable for hybridization, to provide a high capacitance per volume and to provide such a capacitor at low cost.
This problem is solved according to the invention in that the carrier has frontal surfaces (sidewall) in the region of the border regions of the coatings. These frontal surfaces are layered over with at least one contacting layer made of metal. The border regions of the coatings at least partially overlap the edges of these metal layers.
The invention has the advantage that the contact layers do not enlarge the dimensions of the capacitor to an extent worth mentioning, and the stress of the contact layers as well as of the carrier during handling of the capacitor is extremely small and therefore the thickness of the carrier can also be chosen relatively small. In order to provide an embodiment which is easy to solder and can be hybridized, the frontal surfaces are coated over with a first layer made of a solderable high melting metal, and with a second layer made of a soldering metal. The border regions of the coatings partially overlap the edges of at least one contact layer. An embodiment which is easy to produce is provided since the carrier has a cross-section which is at least approaching rectangular in the direction perpendicular to the contact layers. A particularly secure contacting is attained if the contact layers completely cover the corresponding frontal surfaces.
A sufficient heat resistance is guaranteed for hybridization of the capacitors, for example with reflow soldering, if the dielectric layers consist of a product of gas discharge polymerization. (Gas discharge polymerization techniques are known from U.S. Pat. No. 3,068,510, Col. 1, lines 10-32 and Col. 2, lines 1-12, incorporated herein by reference). Besides this, with the use of products of a gas discharge polymerization, particularly advantageous values of the capacitor data are attained, in particular a high capacitance per volume and a low dissipation factor. Also with the products of gas discharge polymerization, satisfactorily regenerating capacitors can be produced. Furthermore, gas discharge polymerization renders possible the polymerization of gases which cannot be polymerized in another manner. For this application, a product of gas discharge polymerization comprising cyclohexane, for example, is suitable. The number of layers which are arranged one over the other can be varied within a broad range. It is advantageous for the capacitor to contain approximately 100 gas discharge polymerized layers and approximately 100 aluminum layers, whereby the aluminum layers display a thickness of approximately 30 nm. This embodiment is still satisfactorily regenerable and makes possible, for example, capacitor dimensions of only 3 mm×1.3 mm×1 mm. The dielectric layers can thereby be less than 1 μm thick.
Capacitors of the kind described can be advantageously produced by means of a method wherein a carrier band is produced from the insulating material with the width desired in the capacitor. This carrier band on its narrow longitudinal side has frontal surfaces and is provided on its frontal surfaces with at least one contact layer out of a material which is non-melting at the temperature of the customary soldering process during mounting of components. At least one surface of this carrier band is vapor-deposited with a value metal layer. (A layer comprised of metals having the valve effect, i.e. Al, Ta . . . ) Upon this valve metal layer, a gas discharge polymerization layer is polymerized on in a gas by means of an electrical glow or gas discharge. Upon this gas discharge polymerization layer, a second metal layer is evaporated, and over this, further gas discharge polymerization layers are polymerized on and metal layers are evaporated on. Regions which are not to be layered are covered by masks both in the case of evaporating on of the metal layers as well as in the case of polymerizing on of the polymerization layers from the gas phase. The capacitor strips which arise in this manner are separated into individual capacitors. This separation can proceed in strips which are free of coating between regions which are capacitively active. However, it can also proceed through the coatings. For this, for example, cutting of the capacitor strip with a shear or something similar is suited. Also, by cutting the capacitor strip, a satisfactory insulation of the coatings with respect to one another results.
The proposed invention offers simple assembly possibilities wherein the carrier band is layered on two of its frontal (sidewall) surfaces with a first layer made of a high melting metal and a second layer made of a soldering metal. After the application of the polymerization layers and of the metal coatings, connection wires are sealed into the solder metal layers. As a solder metal, tin is particularly suitable.
A simple production of a large number of the proposed capacitors is made possible since a foil of high melting metal is laminated to both sides of an insulating synthetic material plate, the thickness of which corresponds to the width of the carrier. An overlay of a soldering metal is applied onto this metal foil which has been laminated on. The plate is then separated into strips of the thickness of the carrier which is needed in the capacitor. The metal and gas discharge polymerization layers are applied onto the cut surfaces and then the capacitors are separated from the capacitor strips which were formed in that manner. As a first high melting contact layer, a 35 μm thick copper foil is suitable. Onto this, a tin layer is applied. This suffices in making possible a satisfactory connection to the capacitor or the soldering in of connection leads. It is advantageous for the production of large quantities of capacitors if several carrier strips are placed next to one another and are supplied with the corresponding layers at the same time. Aluminum is particularly suited as a coating material. The tin layer can, for example, be applied electrogalvanically or by means of dipping. Before the dividing of the capacitor strips into individual capacitors, an additional insulating material film or a lacquer layer can be applied for the protection of the dielectric layers. As a material for the carrier, epoxy resin is suitable since this synthetic material displays a sufficient heat stability.
A satisfactory sharp limitation of the layers which are applied is attained in that the surfaces which are to be coated are covered with masks and wherein the masks are brought as close to the surfaces to be coated as possible. This is important in particular for the production of the polymerization layers, since even slight layer thicknesses in the edge regions which are to be contacted will bring about a poor contact. The covering with masks which lie directly adjacent the surfaces to be layered is also possible in the case of the production of polymerization layers which are designed to be relatively thick, since tapering polymerization layers form in the vicinity of the edge of the masks. Therefore, masks which lie directly upon the surfaces to be coated can easily be removed after the coating. By this technique, layers can be produced which are very precisely limited and which lie over one another congruently. A construction is possible with very narrow tolerances.
FIG. 1 shows schematically in sectioned view a capacitor according to the invention;
FIG. 1a is a perspective view of an insulating plate from which a plurality of carrier bands used in formation of capacitor strips is formed;
FIG. 1b is a top view of a single carrier band formed from the plate shown in FIG. 1a, the sectioned view of which is shown in FIG. 1; and
FIG. 2 shows schematically the profile of a gas discharge polymerization layer in the vicinity of a mask.
A carrier 1 of insulating material which has a width L desired in the capacitor, is layered on both sides with a higher melting contact layer 5, 5' and a soldering layer 6, 6'. In each case, metal layers 2 or, respectively, 2' as a metallic coating are arranged upon this carrier 1. These metal layers are separated from one another by means of gas discharge polymerization layers 3. The metal layers 2 or, respectively, 2' partially overlap the contact layers 5 and 6, or respectively, 5' and 6'. Connection elements 11, 11' are soldered to the solderable metal layers 6, 6' respectively.
As shown in FIG. 2, a surface 7 which is to be coated with a product of a gas discharge polymerization is partially covered by a mask 9. The gas discharge polymerization layer 8 becomes thinner in the region of the edge 10 of the mask 9. Its thickness approaches zero. The region which is influenced by the mask corresponds approximately to the thickness of the mask 9. Therefore, the mask 9 can be lifted off without difficulty even after applying thick polymer layers 8. No detachment of the gas discharge polymerization layers 8 from the surface 7 to be coated occurs.
For a simple production of a large number of carrier bands and capacitors, the following techniques are employed. As shown in FIG. 1a, a large insulating synthetic material resin plate 12 is provided having a width "L" corresponding to a width of the desired carrier bands to be employed in manufacturing the individual capacitors. On both major surfaces of the plate 12, a high melting metal layer 14, 14' is applied corresponding to the metal layer segments 5, 5' in FIG. 1. Over the high melting metal layers 14, 14' are respectively applied soldering metal layers 13, 13' corresponding to layers 6, 6' in FIG. 1.
The plate 12 is now cut into individual carrier bands 21a-21g along cutting lines 15 shown in FIG. 1a. The top carrier band 21a shown in FIG. 1a is shown in a top view in FIG. 1b. After application the glow discharge layers and appropriate capacitive metal layers, the carrier band 21a is cut into individual capacitors such as 17, 18, 19 and 20 shown in FIG. 1a or in FIG. 1b.

185.18.14 CUDA does not work.....
The 185 series drivers still do not work with GPUGrid on linux. The 180.X series do work, but cause issues with screen hesitation.

Re: 185.18.14 CUDA does not work.....
Did you guys look at my earlier thread w/ bug report????

Re: 185.18.14 CUDA does not work.....
I forwarded it to CUDA engineers (the NVIDIA engineers monitoring this forum specialize in the graphics driver stack), but I don't know what action they've taken. Some of the CUDA end user support seems to be through forums.nvidia.com, you may want to report your problem there, as well.
Re: 185.18.14 CUDA does not work.....
Fair enough. Thanks.

Students earning a certificate or degree from Mt. Hood Community College must process a graduation application with the Admissions, Registration and Records (AR&R) Office. It is strongly recommended that students apply two terms before their anticipated completion date (i.e., spring term graduates should apply during fall term). All students who have applied for graduation during the school year are eligible to participate in the June commencement ceremony even if coursework is not done by spring term. All students who apply will have their name printed in the commencement program (as listed in our records system) unless they apply after the third week of April or if they have requested their name be excluded. After the deadline, names will be published in the following year's program. Students must contact this office to have their name published a second time if they did not complete and/or participate in the ceremony originally scheduled. Information regarding commencement will be mailed early in spring term to students whose names will be in the program. This information will also be posted on the College's website. Students who do not attend commencement may pick up or request a degree cover from the AR&R Office. Please note: If you have requested to prevent disclosure of directory information, your name will not be published in the commencement program book.
Students have the choice of following the catalog of the year they began their program or the year they are ending their program. Once enrolled in a career-technical program, if the course of study is interrupted or extended by five years or more, certificate and degree requirements for graduation may have changed. In order to then earn the certificate or degree, the student may be asked to complete current requirements or provide written approval from the program adviser to apply the original coursework toward a certificate or degree.
Students may complete a program no longer offered by MHCC if, before the program was eliminated, they received an official contract from the College entitling them to completion.
Students should complete the online graduation application available here. Please note: A separate application must be submitted for each certificate or degree awarded.
Credits from all accredited colleges or universities that are to apply toward a MHCC certificate or degree must be submitted via official transcripts and be attached to the graduation application or be on file in the AR&R Office.
The AR&R Office will evaluate the application and notify the student with an evaluation of progress. Students should work with their advisers for educational planning in completing the requirements.
Final review and approval of the certificate / degree application is done after the student's anticipated term of completion and after final grades have been posted and checked. Degrees will be mailed to the student two to four weeks after the end of the term of completion except for spring term, which takes four to six weeks. Students who apply for a certificate or degree after it has been earned will not have to wait until the end of a term for the certificate or degree to be sent or awarded. These will be processed on a first come, first served basis along with all other applications.
Incomplete applications for graduation will remain in the AR&R Office for a period of one year from the last term in which there is certificate / degree coursework or one year from the date of application (for those students no longer in attendance at the time of application). After that time, the application will be destroyed and the student will need to reapply for graduation.

The Hornets' automatic promotion hopes have been boosted by back-to-back wins over Blackburn and Leicester.
"Things aren't in our hands, we all know that. We need to do what we can do," Anya told www.watfordfc.com.
"The only thing we can control is the three points at the Watford game and then, after that is finished, we can look at the other score."
One of Hull or Watford will be in the play-offs with Brighton, while the pursuit for the final two spots will also go down to the wire.
Crystal Palace harboured hopes of automatic promotion, yet they may miss out on the play-offs altogether due to a nine-game winless run.
However, with a two-point advantage and a superior goal-difference over Bolton and Nottingham Forest, a point against struggling Peterborough should be enough.
The Trotters are in sixth, level on points with Forest, and host Blackpool while Billy Davies' side entertain Leicester, who could also sneak in should they win and Bolton fail to.

Some people on here have opinions and don't have any idea what they are talking about with killing an oil well. If you work in the oil field you have an idea but people that don't work here only know what they see on TV or on the news.

Training sessions for tomorrow's top people
Posted: April 27, 2014|
A DIVISION to support business growth through management training is being launched by Derby College next week.
Entitled Roundhouse Thinking, the courses will be showcased at events in Derby and Ilkeston on Tuesday, April 29.
The first will be held at the Derby College Roundhouse campus, Pride Park, at 7.30am, with a second at 5.30pm at the Ilkeston Pimlico campus.
A suite of one-day and short training courses will focus on leadership skills, strategy, creative thinking, maximising performance and compliance, including statutory training requirements such as first aid at work.
Derby College director of business development April Hayhurst said research showed the courses were needed locally.
She said: "While many businesses and organisations have continued to invest in work-based training such as apprenticeships and vocational NVQs, management training has been cut back due to economic pressures over recent years.
"As the economy picks up and business confidence improves, employers tell us that the key element to their future success is to upskill their management teams so that they can better strategically plan and execute their growth plans.
"We have therefore developed a bespoke package of courses that will be delivered by specialists in different industrial areas and at a time and place convenient for businesses."
The events will also include information about the Digital Studio College, due to open this September.
For more information and to book a place on the launch events, contact business development co-ordinator Lara Young on lara.young@ derby-college.ac.uk.

Swansea are without a game until September 16, due to international fixtures, but will then be facing trips to Liverpool, Valencia and Crystal Palace.
And Hernandez, while relishing the task of domestic and European fixtures, believes the break will prove beneficial for Michael Laudrup's men.
"It's going to be very busy for us with a lot of games, but after some recovery, we will be ready to play Liverpool, Valencia and Crystal Palace," said the 28-year-old.
"For us, it is important to do well in the Europa League as well as the Premier League, so we are looking forward to these games.
"And the win over West Brom has given us more confidence going into those matches.
"It was very important for us to win (against West Brom) because we started the season with two losses.
"The last two weeks have been very hard. When you play in Europe, you have a lot of games to play and of course we had to play Manchester United and Tottenham in our first two league games."

The Vital Phoenix - Dance of the Five Primordial Fires of Transformation Weekend of May 16-18 , 2014
$405.00 – $1,750.00 (based on accommodation type)This workshop's start date has passed.
Workshop Details
What would happen if we danced directly into the fires of life with unbridled grace? What if we dance ourselves completely open until pure knowing? What if we dance so deep into the fires that it is impossible for our spirit not to penetrate our flesh? Our life is a constant flux of the fires of Birth, Death, and Rebirth. Just as the Phoenix bird rose from its own ashes, we too can emerge from the depths of our fires alchemically forged and renewed.
This VitalDanza process connects us with our infinite capacity for transmutation and renewal, utilizing the archetypes of five primal fires of transformation expressed in movement, music, expression, ceremony, and community. The dances are channels through which to live the most pure and intense experience: of feeling alive, exploring your own intimacy, and revealing your unknown potential and gifts. Everyone can do it and everyone is welcome.

Good one, seemikeawk. Sharp. Very, very, sharp.
That picture above is definitely not a normal dinner at Johnnie's. When I eat there, I always have about two-thirds of my dinner left to take home. My husband is a much bigger eater than I am and he cannot eat everything they put on a plate. To begin with, you get a bowl of fresh vegetables with ranch dip to snack on while you are waiting for your meal and your choice of drinks is requested and served immediately. Then someone, usually Mrs. Hadyk, comes around and tells you the daily specials. Then your waitress takes your order. It is served quite quickly. When delivered, it is a heaping plate of food and your sides are served in separate dishes on the side - they cannot be placed on the plate because there is no room!! The service is excellent. They have three waitresses that have worked there for years - Patty, April, and Chrissy (who is the Hadyk's daughter). They are very friendly, very professional, and very attentive. They come back several times to see how you are doing, if you need anything, or need your drinks refreshed. Styrofoam containers are available for leftovers and they transfer the food for you and take them in the kitchen and wrap them in plastic wrap so they don't leak on the way home.
My husband and I were there last week for bullheads and a fried fish dinner. Dinner, drinks and tip was $40 inclusive. You cannot do better for the quality of food and service that is offered.
My husband loves Talk Radio. Wherever he is, Talk Radio is on. Please don't take Gary Nolan away. He is my reprieve from having to listen to Jim Reith.
My guess is: there is no school this week so they don't need to plow the streets for the buses so they are waiting until a little later when the masses get out of work. This will save them (and us, the taxpayers) some overtime dollars. Everyone has to put their dollars to the best use in these economic times.
P.S. It is 2:55 PM and the snowplow just went by here for the first time today.
Whenever I feel grumpy about something like this, I compare what I have now to what a person in the 1700's had to deal with -- perks me right up!! Just think it through.
I'm guessin' they had more than one set of red cheeks - what do ya think?
Huh??? Excuse me for being sarcastic, but what does that have to do with it?
Chittenango wishes you a perfect ride on the arc of a rainbow to your well deserved place in Heaven, where God will say, "Come, son, I've been waiting for you. You have proven you are the best of the best and I need you to whisper words of advice in the ears of the guys down there in Afghanistan that are still finding their way through Hell."
Chittenango is so proud of you, our hearts are bursting.
People grow up to be replicas of what their parents have taught them. Can you imagine what their kids are like? Can you say the word, - - - Bullies ? ? ? What a disgusting attitude.
I was going to say what could they possibly have to fight about after 68 years, but you said it better. Perhaps it had something to do with the toilet seat being up or down.
Do these look like New York cows to you? They look like California cows to me. They probably heard the grass is greener on the other side of the fence. "C'mon girls, we got this far, let's go get it."
The female ought to be pretty easy to spot. She was wearing a t-shirt. Nothing else? I think I might notice her pretty quickly.
Please explain to me -
which half of his brain does he use to make a living? Which half does he use to try to continue in a family business that has been his life?
Please explain to me -
what do you think a farmer does/doesn't do to be successful? What does he need to change to turn things around?
What would you personally do to help this man and his family that would have kept him from feeling so desparate that he couldn't cope anymore?
I don't mean to sound critical. I want answers of how we help people in the U.S. to go on in this recession.
No longer called the Oz Museum, the memorabilia is now housed in the "new' library (the old Chittenango Bank building that was transformed into the library a couple years ago). And Oz is not dead in Chittenango. The first weekend in June every year is dedicated to celebrating the Wizard of Oz complete with remaining live Munchkins attending.
I assume these babies have had medical checkups to determine if something was amiss with them. What were the results of the tests? How are the babies doing now?
How about that? Ripping off the ripoff. Ain't life grand?
Are you Sure? GWB has been out of office only 9 months. It's got to be his fault somehow.
Why are we hearing so much more about criminal activity? It seems everyday brings more and more bad news.
Are we getting worse (as in differentiation between good and not so good and horrifying) , or taking more chances, or trying to get through our individual life situations by doing stupid things, or lack of thought about the consequences?
OMG!!! Are you aware these people gave up a lot to keep this company in our area? I, for one, cannot look at that business and think it needs trees! When I look at that business, I think, "Hooray for Syracuse," and thank you, Crucible, for caring enough about central New York to go the extra mile. I appreciate all you have done, and I'll bet there are a lot of other people that do, too.
Honeycomb, will you be my baby? Honeycomb, be my own. Got a hank of hair, . . . . . . . . . , a walkin', talkin' Honeycomb.

Getting Started with DevOps - Including New Data on IT Performance from Puppet Labs 2015 State of DevOps Report

DevOps represents a profound change from the way most IT departments have traditionally worked: from siloed teams and high-anxiety releases to everyone collaborating on uneventful and more frequent releases of higher-quality code. It doesn't matter how large or small an organization is, or even whether it's historically slow moving or risk averse — there are ways to adopt DevOps sanely, and get measurable results in just weeks.

Make your house a tranquil paradise
Whenever you're out doing your day to day activities like work, or shopping or school, we always can't wait to get home. But sometimes, there are those people that dread coming home because they have nothing nice to come home to. Well we're here to show you a couple great pieces and some techniques that can help anyone decorate their home so it can be the place of tranquility that we all long for at the end of a day.
Find what relaxes you
It's no secret that we all have different versions of what we find relaxing. For example, I think that a home is relaxing when it has that homey cottage feel to it. Something I can pop on a piece of calming music, lay back on a comfy couch and really not give a care in the world. Designing a room that maybe has a cool leaf shaped rug would be truly ideal. But it could be something totally different for anyone else. Once you find what you find truly relaxing then that's when you can start thinking about decorating.
Small details
You don't need to completely overhaul your entire house just to make it look better. All you may really need are a few pieces around the house that can transform any living space from drab to fab. Getting something like a bright orange picture frame or some bright pillows for your couch can add a lot of dimension to a room. If you want to go the painting approach, get a multi-purpose paint that has primer and the color built-in so you can save on paint costs. This can certainly update a home.
While you may not be able to always get a new piece of furniture, saving up and getting something in your style or house style can feel extremely gratifying. Even getting something like some glass table tops will add a huge punch of chic to your home. Top it off with a beautiful vase or accent piece and you'll have an entirely new room to relax in.
Are you struggling for new decorating ideas? Ask for some advice in the comments below!

Rotavirus has long been the most common cause of severe infection in the intestines, usually causing diarrhea. Although most cases occur between 6 months and 2 years of age, a rotavirus infection may affect people of any age. The vaccine has greatly reduced the number of rotavirus infections.
People are infected with rotavirus by exposure to others with the infection. The virus can survive on surfaces, in water, and on skin. Children are often infected by getting the virus on their skin. In the United States, most infections occur in the winter.
Symptoms may include:
Your child's healthcare provider will ask about the symptoms. A test of your child's stool can be done to check if it is caused by rotavirus, but this is usually not necessary. With severe diarrhea, your child's provider may want to do a blood test to check if your child is very dehydrated.
There are no specific medicines which help diarrhea caused by rotavirus. The most serious problem caused by severe diarrhea is dehydration, so replacing fluids is important. If possible, have your child drink extra fluids. If vomiting is severe your healthcare provider may want to give your child fluids given through a vein (IV).
Fluids should be given as early as possible in the illness (within 24 hours), to help the intestines heal. Infants may be given breast milk, formula, or products containing electrolytes (salts) which are specifically made for babies. Your healthcare provider can recommend a product. Infants should never be given water alone, since the salts lost in diarrhea also need to be replaced.
Older children can be given water or watered-down sports drinks. Fruit juices and carbonated soft drinks should be avoided, because they can make diarrhea worse.
Many parents ask about the use of "probiotics" (such as Lactobacillus) to help recovery from diarrhea. The ability of probiotics in helping control symptoms is still controversial and recent studies have shown conflicting results.
Illness caused by rotavirus usually begins 12 hours to 4 days after being exposed to the virus. If vomiting occurs, it is usually over within 2 to 3 days. Fever and diarrhea generally last 4 to 8 days. Depending on the degree of damage to the intestine, the diarrhea may last up to 2 weeks, even though your child feels well.
It is very difficult for a child to avoid being exposed to rotavirus. Almost all children become infected at some time within the first 3 years of life. The rotavirus vaccine is recommended to prevent severe disease (which can lead to dehydration or death). The vaccine is very effective. The CDC says it will prevent about 74% of all rotavirus cases. It has prevented 98% of severe cases. There are two brands of rotavirus vaccine. A baby should get either 2 or 3 doses, depending on which brand is used.
The first dose may be given as early as 6 weeks of age, and should be given by age 14 weeks 6 days. The last dose should be given by 8 months of age.
This vaccine may be given at the same time as other routine childhood shots, such as DTaP, hepatitis B, and pneumonia vaccines.

COLUMBIA Governor Nikki Haley joined representatives from the South Carolina National Guard and the South Carolina Department of Employment and Workforce (DEW) in officially launching Operation Palmetto Employment (OPE) a statewide military employment initiative aimed at reducing the unemployment rate among South Carolinas military community.
OPE is designed to streamline the process through which military men and women are able to find jobs as well as educating the business community on the value of military hires.
I want us to be the most military friendly state in this country and Operation Palmetto Employment is the type of program that shows our military men and women and their families how much we appreciate the sacrifices they make, said Gov. Nikki Haley. This program benefits everybody involved hard-working South Carolinians will find jobs and the businesses hiring them are getting the best employees around.
Our unemployment rate for veterans is already well below the national average, but every time I see Governor Haley, she wants to know how were going to get it down to zero, said DEW Director Cheryl Stanton. Operation Palmetto Employment is a huge step in continuing to improve our military men and womens contribution to South Carolinas strong workforce.
Veteran service teams will be compromised of representatives from various organizations including DEW, S.C. National Guard, S.C. Department of Social Services, and Veteran Affairs, and will be organized into regions to quickly connect military job seekers with resources and employers looking to hire.
Making Operation Palmetto Employment happen has been a great team effort involving Governor Haley, the Department of Employment and Workforce, and the National Guard and it proves that South Carolina is dedicated to helping our military members from all branches and services, said Major General Lester D. Eisner, Deputy Adjutant General.
Boeing currently employs 24,000 veterans, almost 15 percent of our work force, and we greatly value programs like Operation Palmetto Employment and find it to be closely aligned with our workforce strategy, said Mark Fava, Chief Counsel Boeing South Carolina. Of course, The Boeing Company would not be here today without Governor Haleys leadership, vision and unwavering commitment to creating jobs.
Many of these efforts will take place through the OPE website, which will serve as a platform to connect potential employers with job seekers: www.operationpalmettoemployment.sc.gov.

By Donna MilesAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, March 27, 2008 Army officials announced today that the service has suspended its contract with a company that delivered ammunition from China for use by Afghan army and police forces in a way that violated the contract terms.
Officials from the Army Legal Services Agency notified Edraim Diveroli, president of the Miami Beach-based AEY Inc., that his company is suspended from future contracting with any U.S. government agency. That letter, dated March 25, follows an Army investigation launched in November regarding AEY's violation of its contract.
The Army contracted with AEY in January 2007 to supply various types of nonstandard ammunition for use by the Afghan National Army and Afghan National Police, an Army official said on background. The company was required to purchase the ammunition and deliver it to Kabul International Airport in Afghanistan.
As of today, the Army has issued five task orders, collectively worth $155.3 million, the official said. AEY has made about 80 deliveries, with an estimated value of $54.6 million, into Kabul.
Those deliveries violated two specific terms of the contract, the official said. One stated that the ammunition could not be acquired directly or indirectly from the People's Republic of China, and the other specified that it must be packaged to comply with best commercial practices for international shipment.
Although AEY specified that its 7.62 mm ammunition had been produced in Hungary for the civilian market, U.S. inspectors and Army investigators in Afghanistan determined that much of it actually was manufactured in China. In addition, much of the ammunition was older than specified, with some produced as early as 1962, officials said.
Army Criminal Investigation Command is continuing its investigation, an Army official said.
Bryan Whitman, deputy assistant secretary of defense for public affairs, told reporters today the Army suspended its contract with AEY over questions about the origin and packaging of ammunition, not the company's safety or performance.
"Safety and performance has not apparently been a factor, according to our folks in Afghanistan," Whitman told Pentagon reporters. "They have had no safety incidents reported and no reports of any ammunition that has malfunctioned associated with this particular contract."
Whitman denied that the issue resulted from the Army's awarding of a contract to the lowest bidder and said he was not aware of AEY's qualifications for fulfilling the contract terms.
"As the United States government does business, they are obviously always trying to ensure they get the best value," he said. "But that does not mean that, in achieving the best value for the taxpayer, that we will accept something that is below standard for what it is we are purchasing, either."
Suspension of the AEY contract will have no impact on operations in Afghanistan, and many other contractors have expressed interest in entering into a contract, an Army official said. "Besides, there's no shortage of ammunition already in Afghanistan," he said. "This will have no impact."

LaxPower: For the Fan. For the Sport.
3d Rising Player Evaluations: Prospects in Maryland
John Stucky, 2014
Bullis, Maryland
Boston University Commit
Position: Midfield
Position within Positions: Face Off
Rating: Player
John Stucky will have an immediate impact for Boston U. next season. He is very effective when moving without the ball, often resulting in a quality look. It is also evident that Stucky knows his role well on the offensive end of the field. He possesses a strong repertoire of moves to shake his defender and get to the cage. He is valuable asset at the faceoff X for the Bulldogs as well.
Brad Peters, 2014
DeMatha, Maryland
Brown Commit
Position: Goalie
Position within Positions: Quick
Rating: Legit
Brad Peters is going to be a very powerful net minder in the Ivy League for years to come. It seems that, regardless of his technique, he almost always finds a way to stop the ball. Peters is very quick and constantly sacrifices his body to make saves. As a goal keeper, Brad possesses a clear understanding of his job description, which is to stop the ball at all costs. His vision when clearing is also very solid. He always makes the right decision when moving the ball up field, allowing DeMatha to get back on offense.
Scott Bruner, 2015
Howard, Maryland
Position: Attack
Position within Positions: Finisher Feeder
Rating: Player
Scott Bruner will be a welcomed asset to any college team he decides to sign up for. He is a very strong and multi-talented player. Scott's most redeeming ability is his left-handed cannon for a shot. When he drives to the cage, he protects his stick very well, leaving nothing for defensive players to check. Bruner has quick feet and moves well without the ball. Scott is also an aggressive rider, always trying to find a way to get the ball back to the Lions on offense.
Andrew Dirks, 2014
Archbishop Spalding, Maryland
Delaware Commit
Position: Goalie
Position within Positions: Big in the net
Rating: Legit
Coach Bear Davis will be sure to miss this stellar net minder as he makes the leap to the Blue Hens. Dirks sets up in a sound and balanced stance, staying on the balls of his feet. He also does a great job after making a save, distributing the ball with the offense in mind at all times. Dirks is constantly pushing the ball up in an attempt to catch his opponent in a numbers game. He moves fluidly from pipe to pipe and frustrates the shooter by covering a lot of the cage.
Brett Malamphy, 2014
Arundel, Maryland
UMBC Commit
Position: Midfield
Position within Positions: Face Off
Rating: Player
Brett Malamphy can beat you at the X in a variety of ways. Whether it is winning it to himself or calmly pushing out to a wing, he simply gets the job done. Malamphy does a great job of winning key face-offs for his team, which allows Arundel to build quick offensive transition. A lot of Brett's wins steal momentum from his opponent and build confidence for his team in the process. The Retrievers are getting a valuable weapon to add to next season's roster.
Jason Ashwood, 2014
Hereford, Maryland
High Point Commit
Position: Attack
Position within Positions: Finisher Feeder
Rating: Legit
The Panthers are getting a very explosive player next season. Ashwood has a great ability to squeeze the ball into spots the goalie thinks are covered. He also possesses a hard and heavy shot. Jason is a fierce asset in the riding game. He has a superior handle and is efficient when driving to the cage, wasting minimal space. Ashwood is a proven winning player, as he is part of three straight Maryland state championships.

CNN is now reporting that Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin will be John McCain's running mate.
Palin, 44, who has been governor for only two years, appears to have little track record with video games - or much of anything else.
She was a city council person in Wasilla, Alaska from 1992-1996 and was later mayor of that town. She failed in an attempt to become Alaska's Lt. Gov. in 2002, and won the top seat in 2006.
Palin has two sons and three daughters. Her oldest son, age 18, is scheduled to be deployed to Iraq later this yer.

1. I don't want to get on a soapbox but …
I'm not foolish enough to compare Johnny Manziel to Cam Newton or Tim Tebow. I am, however, open-minded enough to realize the next great dual-threat quarterback in the SEC still has a chance to win the Heisman Trophy.
All it will take is Texas A&M's freshman quarterback leading the Aggies to a victory at No. 1 Alabama. While you laugh at that concept (frankly, so do I), that doesn't mean we should overlook the unreal season Manziel has put together—especially when compared to Newton and Tebow's Heisman seasons:
— Tebow (2007): 3,286 passing yards, 32 TD; 895 rushing yards, 23 TDs.
— Newton (2010): 2,854 passing yards, 30 TDs; 1,473 rushing yards, 20 TDs.
— Manziel (projected 2012): 3,285 passing yards, 20 TDs; 1,198 rushing yards, 20 TDs. There are a few obvious differences. Newton and Tebow won national championships; the Aggies won't even win the SEC West Division—even if they can somehow beat Alabama this weekend. Newton played 14 games (with the SEC championship game) and Tebow played 13; Manziel will play 13.
But this Heisman race, despite pundits screaming about this player locking it up or that player sealing the deal, is wide open. If Manziel leads the Aggies to the upset of the season and has a big game in the process, we'll be well on our way to seeing the first freshman Heisman Trophy winner.
The only thing currently keeping Manziel from the conversation is poor performances against Florida and LSU, in games against elite defenses.
— Manziel vs. Florida and LSU: 449 yards passing, 0 TDs, 3 INTs; 87 yards rushing, 1 TD.
— Manziel vs. everyone else: 2,078 yards passing, 16 TDs, 3 INTs; 835 yards rushing, 14 TDs.
Alabama is the best defense Texas A&M will play all year. Why not make a statement now?
2. The Fall of Troy
Lane Kiffin thought the loss of 30 scholarships was tough. Wait until he has to fire his dad.
3. What if ...
They're unbeaten. They have a Heisman Trophy candidate. They have one of the two best coaches in the game.
And now the inevitable has arrived: the narrative that begins with what if and ends with why not.
What if Ohio State were eligible for the BCS national championship race? What if the Buckeyes were part of the argument, passed the eye test so crucial for all of those polls that determine who plays for it all?
"I've been fortunate to have a couple of top-five teams," said Ohio State coach Urban Meyer. "And this probably has more holes than those other ones. However, there's also some great performances."
So Urb says his team is a top-five team. The question then becomes, where would Ohio State be ranked in the current BCS structure if everyone wins out? Certainly behind this week's first four of Alabama, Kansas State, Oregon and Notre Dame.
And more than likely, behind one-loss Georgia and Florida.
Forget about BCS poll experts telling you Ohio State would be No. 5. We have no idea because Ohio State is ineligible for the two human polls (coaches, Harris), two-thirds of the current process.
There's also whom Ohio State has played, and what the season has looked like through the lens of voters—two critical factors among human voters.
You want to match resumes? Let's look at Ohio State vs. Meyer's former team, Florida. Ohio State's opponents' record is 42-50, and the Buckeyes have one game against a team in the current BCS top 25 (No. 16 Nebraska).
Florida's opponents' record is 49-34, and the Gators have wins over No. 7 LSU, No. 8 South Carolina and No. 15 Texas A&M—and a loss to No. 5 Georgia. Conference strength would also play a significant factor, and the Big Ten's collectively-awful season wouldn't help the Buckeyes.
More than likely, Ohio State would be treated much like Louisville—unbeaten, but no serious factor. That's not to minimize the job Meyer has accomplished (remember, this was a 7-loss team last year); it's just a clear indicator of how far this team is from the nation's elite.
4. No free passes
They hired Mike Leach at Washington State to win games and bring attention to the single-most ignored outpost in all of college football.
Leach is doing very little of the former, and a whole lot of the latter. The only way the negative attention from Leach's bizarre motivational ploys could possibly get worse, would be if they involved an electrical closet and a helicopter dad.
Fortunately, Craig James is out of the college football business. And if Leach keeps this up, he will be, too, before he has a chance to win games in the Palouse.
5. The Weekly Five
Five ways Michigan can convince QB Denard Robinson to switch to wide receiver with four games (maybe five) remaining in his college career (and therefore allow Devin Gardner to play quarterback full-time):
1. The goal is to keep you healthy.
2. This is a chance to show NFL scouts your potential at wide receiver.
3. We'll still use you at quarterback in some run-specific sets.
4. Have you seen our passing game with Devin Gardner?
5. We really need to beat Ohio State.
6. Two shades of beauty
While we all gushed about Oregon's speed and athleticism, about freshman quarterback Marcus Mariota playing big in a tough environment, and tailback Kenjon Barner doing what no running back had ever done against USC, we ignored this: The Ducks have serious questions on defense. You don't give up 51 points in a statement game.
For those who say USC will score on anyone with its star-filled offense, I give you Stanford. The Cardinal held USC to 14 points and 280 yards—37 points and 335 yards less than what Oregon could muster.
But even more overlooked from the WAC-style game last weekend in the Coliseum was the bar that was set by Oregon. The bar Notre Dame must surpass.
In this final month of the season, where the beauty pageant process is more prevalent among unbeaten teams, the big test becomes like opponents. What if Notre Dame rolls into the Coliseum in three weeks and does to USC what Oregon couldn't?
What if the Irish, with one of the nation's best defenses, clamps down on the Trojans and wins big? That scenario most certainly will create pause among poll voters, and give the Irish greater credit for two significant road victories this fall (Oklahoma and USC).
7. Controlling the message
Mack Brown would like to say something, thank you.
Texas' good-guy coach is upset at opponents giving the "Horns down" sign (think: Texas' Horns up hand signal turned upside down), and thinks it has to stop.
"The Horns down is disrespectful," Brown said. "We ought to talk about that as a league."
Bizarre, right? Until you realize this: Nothing rallies rabid Texas fans more than the insult of Horns down. Really it's true.
And when I say nothing, I mean nothing. Not even giving up more than 60 points to Oklahoma for the third time in a coach's tenure, or giving up 118 points to the Sooners in the last two seasons.
See the connection? I thought you would.
8. It's a Cane thing, get over it
Miami is in the process of deciding what to do about its postseason plans, a decision that could prevent the Canes from playing in the ACC championship game—even if they win the Coastal Division.
The ACC has told Miami to make its intentions clear before the ACC title game, and that the Canes will not be allowed to play in the title game should they self-impose bowl sanctions to lessen looming NCAA sanctions.
The decision, really, is about current players vs. the future of the program. Either give current players a chance to win a championship, or take another bowl ban, look proactive to the NCAA and likely not have to deal with more postseason fallout when sanctions linked to booster Nevin Shapiro finally are announced.
I have a better, more cynical (and realistic) way of looking at it: You're going to jeopardize the future of the program to possibly beat a team (FSU) in the ACC championship game that you lost to earlier this season? And if you win, your prize is a spot in the Orange Bowl (your home stadium), where you'll play Big East champion Louisville (Zzzzzzzz) in front of, what, 20,000 fans?
Really, Miami is debating this?
9. A weekend to remember
They began this season of transition with West Virginia flirting with the top five and Geno Smith as everyone's superstar.
Now it has come to this: Texas A&M and TCU have a chance to deliver complete chaos in the national championship race as the big, bold statement for the SEC and Big 12 newbies.
And look at the setup: The Aggies play at No. 1 Alabama, which is physically beaten up and emotionally-drained from last week's victory over LSU, and the Horned Frogs play host to Kansas State, which may be without star QB Collin Klein.
Klein left last week's victory over Oklahoma State late in the third quarter, and walked around the sidelines without his helmet. K-State coach Bill Snyder wouldn't talk about Klein's injury, and only said the team hopes to have him available.
If ever there were a moment for the newbies to make their mark, this is it, because so far, the biggest win for WVU, TCU, Texas A&M or Missouri this year was getting out of their respective former conferences.
10. Emotions in motion
You'd cry, too if losing meant dealing with the wrath of an unstable 'Bama fan.
