Prepared by ACRL/BIS Task Force on the Model Statement of
Objectives. Approved by the ACRL Board of Directors and ALA Standards
Reprinted from C&RLNews, May 1987, a publication of
ACRL, a division of ALA.
The primary purpose of the Model Statement is to generate thinking
in the discipline of bibliographic instruction concerning the
direction of existing instructional programs. It is intended to
help librarians articulate and focus on what their instructional
objectives should be and stimulate research into whether existing
programs are achieving these objectives. As such, the Statement
is not designed to introduce the new librarian to the field, nor
is it designed to introduce an outside faculty member to the relevant
concepts within the discipline. Rather, it is intended to serve
as a statement of general direction for practicing librarians
to review when examining current instructional programs or developing
the keystones of new programs.
The role of bibliographic instruction is not only to provide
students with the specific skills needed to complete assignments,
but to prepare individuals to make effective life-long use of
information, information sources, and information systems. To
this end, the Model Statement attempts to outline the pertinent
processes individuals use when gathering information. The Statement
does not attempt to be comprehensive. The content is designed
as a set of examples or points of departure and is not intended
to serve as an institution's primary document.
The Model Statement is comprised of a set of general and terminal
objectives which describe the processes used when gathering information.
Three objectives are normally used to describe the learning activities
desired for a particular instructional unit. These objectives
describe the overall goals of the programs and what the program
is intended to achieve. Terminal objectives break down the overall
objectives into specific discrete measurable results. Enabling
(behavioral) objectives define the specific knowledge or skills
necessary to achieve the terminal objectives. They are associated
with the behavior of the person who has to master the material.
Since each institution must determine their own enabling objectives,
they are not included in this document, which attempts to generalize
the processes used to access information.
For convenience, the series of general and terminal objectives
listed in the Model Statement has been broken into four broad
areas of concern with corresponding objectives listed in each
of the areas. The Statement outlines how information is:
The section headings represent significant areas or topics
of concern to instruction librarians. No set order is intended.
When developing the Model Statement, the Task Force was guided
by the following principles:
1. User groups targeted by the objectives. The Model
Statement is designed to address the needs of all potential user
groups within academic libraries. This was done for two reasons:
1) Experience has shown that there is no homogeneous group of
"students" or even "undergraduates," but rather
there exists a diverse student body whose members operate on a
continuum of research sophistication; 2) Increasing sophistication
in the field of bibliographic instruction has resulted in the
development of many excellent programs of instruction for student,
faculty and university staff alike. The revised document attempts
to reflect the needs of these user groups also.
2. Ordering of the objectives. Depending on the
information need of the individual or group in question, the librarian
may find instruction in "highly sophisticated" information
skills essential for the undergraduate, while the graduate student
or even the faculty member may need training in basic skills.
In order to provide the greatest flexibility, the objectives are
not ordered; rather, it is for the librarian to determine what
objectives fulfill the needs of the specific user group in question.
3. Institution- and tool-specific information.
It would be literally impossible to list all the objectives which
describe institutional and tool-specific differences. The Model
Statement reviews the similarities within these sources and focuses
on the process of using information and information sources, recorded
and unrecorded, rather than focusing on library processes. The
document is therefore conceptually based and does not include
tool-specific or institution-specific detail. The Task Force feels
that tool-specific or institution-specific information is more
appropriately placed within enabling objectives.
4. Language used. The Model Statement uses very
specific language to describe generic processes. Since common
terms used by librarians have different and often divergent meanings,
it is recommended that the attached glossary be consulted when
using the document.
5. Incorporation of technological advances. Advances
in technology have been incorporated into various sections of
the document where appropriate rather than examined separately.
For example, the methods used to retrieve information sources
from an online catalog are explained in the "Intellectually
Accessed" section, and the explanation that a catalog is
a holding list is detailed in the "Physically Organized and
Accessed" section. By describing processes rather than tools,
it is hoped that the Statement will remain effective long after
the present "new" technology becomes old.
6. Evaluation of information sources and systems.
It was felt that evaluation of information, information sources,
and information systems is something that occurs throughout the
search process. To this end, evaluation issues have been incorporated
into each section of the document where appropriate.
7. Evaluation of objectives. Specific attention
was not devoted to developing evaluation designs for the attainment
of objectives in an instructional setting, as it was felt that
guidance in this matter was available through Evaluating Bibliographic
Instruction: A Handbook, published by ACRL's Bibliographic
Instruction Section in 1983.
8. Structural flexibility. The structure of the
document has been designed to permit as much flexibility as possible.
It consists of four major areas of concern, each with its own
general and terminal objectives. It is probable that no one library's
program will include all the objectives listed; rather, each objective
is suggested as an element related to the area of concern. The
flexibility of the document lies in its "mix and match"
nature; terminal objectives of one section may be matched with
terminal objectives of another section depending upon the program
being designed. In addition, the Model Statement simply lists
suggested areas of interest; when designing a program, the librarian
may find that additional terminal objectives must be created in
order to reflect the needs of the group in question.
Using the Model
The Model Statement is designed to be used in two ways. First,
it is intended to serve as a checklist through which to assist
and examine present programs. Second, it is intended to serve
as a resource through which to develop new programs. To use the
Statement effectively for the latter purpose, the following steps
are recommended:
Model Statement
of General and Terminal Objectives
1. How information is identified and defined by experts.
General Objective:
The user understands how information is defined by experts, and
recognizes how that knowledge can help determine the direction
of his/her search for specific information.
T1. (T will be used hereafter for "terminal"
objective). The user understands that individuals or groups identify
themselves as belonging to specific areas and/or disciplines.
T2. The user recognizes that individuals within these
groups may combine information from information sources with original
thought, experimentation, and/or analysis to produce new information.
T3. The user recognizes that disciplines use specific
methods to communicate information.
T4. Once a topic of interest is selected, the user understands
how it can be refined and can formulate a question.
T5. The user understands how to construct an approach
or strategy appropriate to the anticipated result of the research
2. How information sources are structured.
General Objective:
The user understands the importance of the organizational content,
bibliographic structure, function, and use of information sources.
T1. The user understands how the organizational content
of recorded information sources is structured and how this knowledge
can help determine the usefulness of the source.
T2. The user recognizes that unrecorded information
sources exist and can evaluate their potential usefulness.
T3. The user understands how information sources are
bibliographically structured and how this knowledge can help determine
the usefulness of the source.
3. How information sources are intellectually accessed
by users.
General Objective:
The user can identify useful information from information sources
or information systems.
T1. The user understands that although any information
about an information source could be used to help identify and
locate it, there are certain elements of information called access
points which are accepted by the research community as the most
pertinent through which to identify a source.
T2. The user understands that there are a variety of
information sources called access tools whose primary purpose
is to identify other information sources through the use of access
T3. The user understands how to manipulate access points
to identify useful information or information sources.
T4. The user can evaluate the citation retrieved or
the accessed information and determine whether or not it is at
the appropriate level of specificity.
T5. The user recognizes the absence of recorded information
sources on a specific topic, realizes the implications and recognizes
the alternatives.
4. How information sources are physically organized and
General Objective:
The user understands the way collections of information sources
are physically organized and accessed.
T1. The user understands that libraries and library
systems may group information sources by subject, author, format,
publisher, type of material, or special audience.
T2. The user understands that the library uses call
numbers to assign a unique physical address to each item in the
T3. The user understands that individual items within
a library system's collections are listed in special holdings
or location files.
T4. The user understands that the library staff is comprised
of individuals with varying degrees and areas of expertise, who
provide certain services through departments and who may be helpful
in accessing information.
T5. The user understands the policies and procedures
used by library departments and recognizes that these may vary.
T6. The user understands that the campus library is
not the only location through which to retrieve necessary material.
Access: to retrieve information.
Access points: specific pieces of information identified
as being useful to the retrieval of information.
Bibliographic structure: the framework of explicit links
of footnote references and bibliographic citations or implicit
links of tacit relationships.
Citation: a bibliographic record (or systematic sequence)
which includes the information necessary to access an information
source physically.
Communication: the transfer of information in the various
media from one person, place, or device to another.
Data: the symbols or characters of a language. Examples:
the letters of the alphabet, numbers, etc.
Document (Recorded Information Source): a physical entity
in any medium upon which is recorded all or part of a work or
multiple works. Examples: book, journal article, etc.
Information: a grouping of data which has a particular
meaning within a specific context. Examples: a word, a name, etc.
Information source: a single entity from which information is
retrieved. Examples: a person, a book, a journal article, an index,
Information system: an organized structure of interrelated
information sources. Examples: an online catalog, etc.
Intellectual access: the isolation or selecting of useful
information from information sources or systems.
Physical access: the physical retrieval of an information
source. Process: manipulating, preparing, and handling information
to achieve the desired results.
Structure: the logical arrangement or organization of information.

Great goggles that interface seamlessly with my receptor helmet, which my crowbars can't do. I think they tend to hug the face better when you wear them under the helmet, but it may just be me. Lenses are pretty quick to switch out...less than a minute. Simple, functional and elegant...what else can you ask for?

Here are Five Charity Songs that Sucked for the 28th Anniversary of "We Are the World"
"We Are the World," Artists for Haiti
Haiti apparently was a great uniter and a shining inspiration for bad rehashes of songs. For the 25th anniversary of the original "We Are the World," Lionel Richie and Quincy Jones gathered more than eighty musical celebrities (I hesitate to call them all "singers") for a reworked single that would aid Haiti relief. Because the men wanted the younger generation to take up their burden of saving the world, Justin Bieber led the group, along with Nicole "Sluttiest Pussycat Doll Ever" Scherzinger, Josh Groban, an autotuned Lil Wayne and our favorite siren Miley, who cares about everything everywhere. But the fun didn't end there! This little ditty also brought us a horrible new rap, incomprehensible weird shit from Wyclef Jean and a creepy Michael/Janet duet thanks to "video magic." At least Jamie Foxx did a sweet Ray Charles impression.
"Just Stand Up!" Artists Stand Up to Cancer (live version)
I'm all for girl power, I swear. I believed in the Spice Girls' mantras during the '90s and read Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, so I'm quite in touch with the power of the vagina. However, this live version of "Just Stand Up" was an abomination. "But how can a song that features Beyonce, Carrie Underwood and Mary J. Blige be bad?" you ask. Because it was missing Melissa Etheridge, Sheryl Crow and LeAnn Rimes, who provided heart on the studio version and wisely stayed home when it came time to perform on live TV in 2008. It's great that the Entertainment Industry Foundation established Stand Up to Cancer to raise funds and awareness for disease research, but this single was the pits. Even Miley-effing-Cyrus couldn't help it.
If all of these songs are considered lame, then what should a post-'80s charity single sound like? Elton John had a nice run of them, with his rehashed versions of "Candle in the Wind" (for the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fund) and "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" (a duet with George Michael, for children's, education and AIDS charities). Both of St. Louis' own Songs for Joplin collections also feature good songs that don't overreach in the name of charity. However...

Why is the appraiser coming to my house?
It all starts with the inspection. An appraiser's duty is to inspect the property being appraised to ascertain the true status of that property. He or she must actually see features, like the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, the location of the property, and so on, to ensure that they really exist and are in the condition a reasonable buyer would expect them to be. The inspection often includes a sketch of the property, ensuring the proper square footage and conveying the layout of the property. Most importantly, the appraiser looks for any obvious features - or defects - that would affect the value of the house. An FHA inspection further inspects the attic or crawlspace, appliances and water pressure. An appraiser may even look under your sink!
Once the site has been inspected, an appraiser uses two or three approaches to determine the value of real property: a cost approach, a sales comparison and, in the case of a rental property, an income approach.

Xeroderma pigmentosum is a group of rare skin disorders that makes the skin very sensitive to sunlight. The disease stops the body from repairing cell damage caused by ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun.
Children who inherit this disease have skin problems soon after birth. Changes in the pigment of the skin can lead to many skin cancers. The disease sometimes affects the eyes. And it may cause delayed development or intellectual disability.

Moby Awards Finalists
The Moby Awards has a new website, a new look and finalists for 2nd Annual Awards ceremony for the 2011 Moby Awards.
The prize? A old sperm whales to the winners.
New this year? The awards ceremony will feature "screening our favorite great/horrible book trailers and handing out a few lifetime achievement and 'special' awards."
The award was started last year by Melville House, which despite its small size and independent nature, managed to snag a lot of press for book trailers in general and the Moby Award in particular. Part of the fun of the award is the tongue-in-cheek nature of the awards, which look not only at the Best of the year, but also at the Worst. Last year, some of the best press went to the Worst category winners.
Here are this year's categories. Notice that the children's category is marginalized–it only gets one category, not two: rather lazy.
- Book Trailer As Stand Alone Art Object
- Best Big House
- Worst Big House
- Best Small House
- Worst Small /No House
- Worst Performance by an Author
- Most Celebtastic Performance
- What Are We Doing To Our Children? (good or bad, you decide)
Which would you rather win? The Best or the Worst category?

CHURUBUSCO — In Tuesday evening's Northeast Corner Conference battle of Lady Eagle softball teams, the host Churubusco Lady Eagles used a big nine-run fourth inning to hand the visiting Fremont Lady Eagles a 14-1 loss.
The hosts gave up only a single and a walk in the first three innings to the visitors, as Churubusco pitcher Courtney Luttman enticed five fly-outs in the first three stanzas to go along with infield ground outs.
The host Lady Eagles got on the board in the bottom of the first inning when lead-off batter Kasey Gibson reached on a Fremont error, stole second and third then scored to give Churubusco a 1-0 lead at the end of the first inning.
In the second inning, the host Lady Eagles bumped the lead up to 4-0 after shortstop Lacey Pulley drew a walk and scored when Luttman doubled.
Cassidy Perlich reached on a Fremont error, stole second and then scored on a single by Gibson. Gibson stole second, went to third on a Fremont wild pitch and scored on a single by catcher Chandler Blake, giving Churubusco a 4-0 lead after two innings.

FEMA responds to floods
Residents anxious to get flood aid
Jerry Peel had a bone to pick with federal officials Tuesday afternoon.
"You guys with FEMA?" he asked as he approached three Federal Emergency Management Agency officials in the field Tuesday near Calallen. "Was this declared a disaster area or not?"
Agency spokesman Daniel Martinez said it was.
"Well I have a letter saying it wasn't," Peel replied.
It turned out the letter -- which arrived Tuesday -- was in response to Peel's application for federal aid made Aug. 4, before the county was declared a disaster area.
Martinez assured Peel he was eligible. It was just one stop for Martinez and two other agency outreach officials as they made the rounds Tuesday near County Road 73 -- part of which remains underwater after heavy rains near San Antonio and locally in June forced dam officials to release water into the Nueces River.
Martinez said Wednesday 569 Nueces County residents have applied for aid, but only three residents they visited near Calallen have applied for aid that ranges from loans to grief counseling.
"This is part of why we're here," Martinez said. "We're trying to encourage them to register with FEMA and not wait for us to come to the door. There's quite a few who have yet to make the call."
Dark clouds forming Tuesday morning reminded residents of the threat of further rainfall supplementing the river's height in the area. The Nueces River near Calallen remained a half-foot above flood stage, at 7.5 feet. Near Bluntzer, the river was just more than 6 feet above flood stage, at 24.2 feet.
Both Choke Canyon Lake and Lake Corpus Christi were slightly under capacity Tuesday.
The National Weather Service predicts a 70 percent chance of rain for the area today and Thursday.
Nueces County Emergency Management Coordinator Bill Roberts said a disaster recovery center at the Hilltop Community Center possibly could be set up later in the week, and that a zero-dollar lease agreement with the state for the site was made Tuesday.
Although residents have until Aug. 28 to apply for federal aid, Roberts said the lease agreement runs through mid-October. Residents affected by flooding that occurred between June 16 and Aug. 3 are eligible. Residents can expect a visit about three days after applying, Roberts said.
Roberts said if inspectors find that registered residents qualify, they could expect to see monetary assistance one to two weeks after the inspection.

I absolutely agree with the gals- but you know my thought on this is that since you've had a trace more than once- it might be a good idea to request a 24 hour urine. A 24 hour is required in the diagnosis of PE and is much, much more accurate than dipped tests, which are unduly influenced by how concentrated your urine is.
A trace is normal, and many healthy pregnancies have it- but many of us who developed hypertension had persistent traces that were a tiny clue that something was brewing. In any event, even it comes out entirely normal- it's always good to have a baseline to compare future tests to. Let us know how you're doing!

Name: Alex Spirov
Hometown: Minneapolis, MN
Varsity sport participated in: Women's Soccer
Study abroad semester and location: Chicago ACM Program Spring 2013
What was your proudest/most exciting moment off-campus?
My Chicago adventure started with me thinking that Chicago consisted of the big downtown skyscraper, Navy Pier, Lake Michigan and that was the vast majority of the city. I did not understand, even after visiting dozens of times, that the city has so many complexities on so many levels. Downtown ended up being only a tiny part of my experience in Chicago. I learned that the city is made up of many districts and neighborhoods and I had the opportunity to explore a ton of Chicago. I would say I am most proud of exploring, understanding, and learning about a new city in depth and being able to call it home. Although it is a city within the US, I still feel the history and collective cultures are so important. When the program ended I can honestly say that I was an adapted Chicagoan and knew the city better than most people that live there.
How were you able to get involved with your host culture while off-campus?
Like I said before, I never thought of Chicago as a place that would have neighborhoods and community building. I found that each neighborhood in Chicago contributes to the city in a unique way while still being a separate "city within a city". My neighborhood, Logan Square, was a new and developing community that consisted of many generations of Hispanic families as well as young, single individuals that had been steadily moving into the community. It was an assignment to get to know our neighborhood but by the end of the program I wanted to keep finding ways to get involved. I went to knitting club at the local library, supported local musicians, made friends with the neighborhood homeless gentlemen, went to dance lessons in my community, talked with students who are involved in this community, met the owner of the self-started neighborhood book store, and just lived and contributed to the area in which I lived.
How were you able to stay in shape or stay prepared for your sport while you were gone?
There was a gym that I joined to work out a few times a week. It was nice to have someplace to go and I had to take a bus there so I did get to know my neighborhood a little better. There were actually a few other athletes from ACM schools in my program that needed to stay in shape too; we would talk and collaborate about ways to do that. Although it was not my number one priority, nor did I want it to be, I did find time to exercise. I say this because I would rather be immersed in the abroad experience rather than look for every opportunity to train. An athlete is only part of who am or what I do.
Did being an athlete provide you with any advantages while you were off-campus? If yes, what were they?
Yes, actually. When the weather got nicer I would run outside, that is when I discovered a turf field in my neighborhood. My community was predominantly Hispanic so I would play soccer with the local Hispanic kids when I had the time. That experience was so amazing, using my athletic ability to be able to immerse myself more thoroughly into my community.
Some words of advice for other athletes who want to study off-campus:
Don't let athletics stand in your way. Your coach will work with you; if studying aboard is something that you really want to pursue, you need to go for it. Beloit is a great place to explore your options. Although being an athlete is a big part of my Beloit experience, so is studying abroad and there are definitely ways to do both and even more for that matter.

Once the Siri voice recognition feature announced yesterday at the iPhone 4S keynote and people started to get crazy about it. Everyone now wants Siri feature to be ported to the iPhone 4. Now we have some good news for you.
The popular iPhone hacker known as iH8sn0w and John Heaton (@Gojohnnyboi) have started to work on porting the Siri feature on iPhone 4. They've already ported Siri to the iPod touch 4G but it is not fully functioning as shown in the screenshot above.
We successfully enabled Siri, but it seems out it is compiled to only work on the 4[s], and thus, cannot be used(yet).
As tweeted by John Heaton, "We've got 3+ smart people performing an analysis on Assistant… be patient." he also replied to some saying that "you'd be surprised…"
According to this tweet from iH8sn0w, Apple might have left out crucial files for Siri in the iOS 5 GM so that means it may be successfully ported once iOS 5 is officially released.
The port is done on iPod touch 4G not iPhone 4 but in case hackers have succeed to port Siri on iPod touch 4G, they would do the same on iPhone 4.
A word from iH8sn0w about the port:
It's definitely not just a plist value that you have to change in order to get Siri. Thus far, it has required a lot of searching and digging. After sending all the known information to John, I'm beginning to find that it is much harder than expected. We're using an iPod touch 4G now but our aim is to port it to all devices that Apple won't support. At this point, we're unsure of whether Siri requires certain hardware components or not. At this point, we can't say but are still trying. After buying the iPhone 4S myself, I will be looking to see if there are any new files that are not available on the current iOS 5 version. This might be our stopping point.
(Via iDownloadBlog)
UPDATE: The progress has been great! You'll actually be able to get Siri on your iPhone 4.. more details here.
UPDATE: Another developer could port Siri on the iPhone 4. Here's a video showing it in real.If you found this post useful, hopefully hit the +1 (recommend) button ⇉

Level 6 Trading - USD-CHF Pair
Trading the U.S. Dollar/Swiss Franc
Although it is somewhat less liquid than the euro and the pound, the Swiss franc is still a very easy currency for forex traders to trade. The issue most likely to result in big movements in the Swiss franc is international political and/or economic instability. When either political or economic turmoil increases, investors will flee to the safety of the Swiss franc. When volatility decreases, however, the Swiss franc will see less interest from traders and investors.
Though the franc often rises against most other currencies during times of increased volatility, forecasting the relative performance of the Swiss franc versus the U.S. dollar is difficult, since the U.S. dollar is also seen as a safe haven during times of turmoil. Therefore, it is not always easy to figure out whether the Swiss franc or the U.S. dollar will be the predominant source of safety during an international crisis.
During less volatile periods, traders should keep in mind that the Swiss franc has a very high correlation to the euro. When the value of the euro increases, the franc will usually follow suit. If you notice a rise or decline in the euro without a corresponding move in the franc, you may want to consider initiating a trade believing that the franc will eventually continue its historical correlation with the euro. Keep in mind, however, that although this type of relative value trade is extremely popular (and often profitable), there is no guarantee that markets will revert to their historical mean, so don't put yourself in a position to get caught holding the bag (To learn about another popular pair that includes the "Swissie", see Making Sense Of The Euro/Swiss Franc Relationship.)

It is important to install the correct terminal for the flue. A cowl is usually required for a specific purpose i.e. to overcome downdraft, prevent birds nesting or protect the flue from weathering. We supply and install cowls for all requirements. For people wishing to cap off a chimney that is no longer in use, we supply the correct vented terminal cap which will prevent condensation in the flue. Sometimes they are mistakenly fitted on active flues, this is potentially hazardous and can void your home insurance.
A properly fitted chimney pot protects the stack from adverse weathering and prevents deterioration of the brickwork at the top of the chimney. A pot also improves draft in a flue and prevents a degree of downdraft and water ingress into the flue. We supply and install pots to suit any chimney.
Please note many downdraft issues may be caused by inadequate ventillation, a second chimney in the building, a cold flue, the chimney terminating in a high pressure region or maybe a room air inlet on the leeward side of the building many more potential problems. A site survey may be needed to investigate and resolve the problem.
Anti Bird & Anti Rain (ABR) Chimney cowl
Prevents birds and rain entering the chimney. High grade stainless steel construction.Will not provide against downdraft.
Spinner Anti-Draft Chimney cowl
Stops the wind penetrating the chimney which can cause smoke to escape from the fireplace and other appliances. Suitable for use with Oil, Gas and solid fuels.
Static Anti-Draft Chimney cowl
Highly effective at stopping the wind from entering the chimney of occasional and not severe downdraft. If the problem is severe than you need to install a Spinner Chimney Cowl. Also prevents rain and birds entering the flue.
Super C Electric Fan/Cowl Ventilator
The Super C's main purpose is to provide updraft. It will solve the most severe of downdraft issues.Must not be used on a chimney where it's length is less than (4.6 m ) 15 feet
Chimney Control Cowl
By increasing or decreasing the size of the opening you can control and limit: Heat loss up the chimney, Draft and fuel consumption.Flow reversal, External noise reduction.
All Cowls are made in Ireland using High grade stainless steel and carry a one year guarantee against any defect in materials or workmanship.
Fire Safety Products
Extinguishers are manufactured to EN3 and CE marked.
Carbon Monoxide alarms conform to BS EN 50291:2001
We supply and fit all above products in Dublin and Wicklow.
Please contact me for advice and prices on any of the above

Jack has previously written about the Open Budget Index 2008 which charts a number of countries from around the globe for their budget transparency efforts. The UK, South Africa, France, New Zealand and the United States came on top of the list with 82-88%. – Germany fared equally well (or badly) as Sri Lanka at 64%.
The Open Budget Index (OBI) is a rare international instrument to analyse budget transparency. Even though the IMF and OECD have their own best practices/codes/ROSCs, none of these produce a numerical score. – They are seen as guidelines. The OBI is the only international instrument allowing for a score. Now, you can obviously discuss to what extent its indicators are and should be weighed equally but overall I think that the index is a pretty good instrument. – It is put together by practitioniers from the International Budget Project (IBP) in Washington DC. These civil society activists have a broad experience with practical budgeting but they also have limited resources. Not all countries are included in the index. One of those unfortunately not covered is the 130 billion Euro EU budget.
I have therefore attempted to score the EU budget with the same OBI methodology and make it comparable to all the other countries included in the 2008 index. To cut a long story short, I came up with an overall score of 64% for the EU – exactly the same as Germany and Sri Lanka. This is still worse than the 71% average of the 9 EU member states included in the OBI but still not as bad as many people might have thought who frequently complain about the EU.
Here comes the score with the EU Read the rest of this entry »

This time of year, we hear a lot about people giving back.
This season, a group Oak Ridge middle schoolers took the initiative to make Christmas wishes come true for those in need.
8th grade students at St. Mary's School created an angel tree to collect toys from across the area. Those donations will go to Catholic Charities' Crazy Quilt Friendship Center in Jellico.
Wednesday, they packed up the presents, and traveled to Jellico to set up for the center's annual Christmas party. There, hundreds of low-income children will get to meet Santa and get a new toy.
"I would really like to go up there and actually go on the day when they're giving out presents and just see the joy on the people's faces because they don't get as many presents and they don't have a lot," said student Madelyn Fahhoum.
The annual Christmas party and toy distribution is this Saturday from 1:00 to 3::00 pm in Jellico.

By Army Sgt. 1st Class Tyrone C. Marshall Jr.American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, April 11, 2013 One of the dangers of sequestration is the amount of attention spent on managing budgets and finances rather than airmen focusing on training and their jobs, the commander of the Air Force's Air Mobility Command said here today.
Air Force Gen. Paul J. Selva met with reporters of the Defense Writers Group to discuss the impacts of sequestration on his command.
"Because of the way the sequester was built in law, it consumes a disproportionate share of our time," he explained. "Unless something changes -- if there's no budget agreement in [fiscal 2014] and beyond -- it consumes a whole lot more of our time than budgets would normally."
Selva explained the process of managing sequestration for AMC is handled by the same people who build the command's budget yearly.
"So they're forced into the room to reprioritize almost on a weekly basis the expenditures that the command is going to have to live with through the balance of the year just to the close of this fiscal year -- to attempt to protect the things that are most important to us," the general said.
Selva said a "pretty significant" percentage of their efforts are aimed at either mitigating the impact of lost revenue as a result of sequestration or trying to "maneuver inside the fairly narrow lanes" that are laid out in law for how to manage the money Air Mobility Command has.
"The sequester has consumed intellectual effort across the enterprise, from the youngest airman on the flightline to my desk," he said.
Selva said his concern is that focusing on how to do things inside the sequester, instead of doing them right, will lead to airmen paying less attention to their jobs and their missions.
"[This] has some insidious consequences in terms of focus on training," he said. "So I spend a fair amount of my time trying to keep the people that are responsible for training our airmen to do some of the most complicated tasks they do, as focused on that responsibility as they are on trying to manage the finances."
Selva noted there has been a noticeable impact on how AMC conducts its operations.
"We've had a very marked impact on our capacity to manage inside our air-refueling accounts, so if you went to one of our bases today and talked to a tanker crew, you'd find out they're flying the airplane about once every 30 days," he said.
"Unless there's an operational requirement for them to fly, they're maintaining what we call basic aircraft currencies," Selva said. "So they're down to the minimum level that we can safely assert that they can fly the airplane and do the mission they have to do."
The general said the spending cuts have caused about a "40-percent take" of the flying hours for the balance of the fiscal year, which runs through September, and that flight time is "down to reasonably low numbers."
Selva said he believes concern with the effects of sequestration on the organization may distract airmen, and that this is "the danger in this process."
"We misappropriate our attention and we take it off the most important things -- which is making sure our airmen are trained to do the tasks we tell them to do, at the least amount of risk in whatever space they're in," he said. "We owe it to them to make sure they're trained and focused on that task. This diverts a great deal of our attention away from that training."
This is where his priority lies, the general added, and where it will stay.
Air Mobility Command provides worldwide cargo and passenger delivery, air refueling and aeromedical evacuation. The command also transports humanitarian supplies to hurricane, flood and earthquake victims both in the United States and around the world.

As we noted in the review of the first volume (on Fourier Analysis) of the Princeton Lectures in Analysis, this series is a result of a radical rethinking of how to introduce graduate students to analysis. It is only after having discussed quite a bit of Fourier Analysis (without the Lebesgue integral!) and Complex Analysis (the topic of volume II), that the authors turn to topics which have often been placed at the beginning of graduate (and even advanced undergraduate) courses in Analysis: measure, integration, and Hilbert spaces.
The book opens with an introduction that seeks to motivate the ideas by discussing Fourier series, limits of continuous functions, the relationship between differentiation and integration, and finally "the problem of measure". It then has chapters on the Lebesgue measure, Lebesgue integral, and the connection between differentiation and integration. Hilbert spaces are introduced next, with L2 as the crucial example. The final three chapters deal with other examples of Hilbert spaces, abstract measure and integration, and the Hausdorff measure.
As one might expect, several of the main results of the first volume are re-examined in this one. This, of course, is one of the features of the authors' approach, which makes it easier to motivate the more abstract material in this book and also highlights the connections between different branches of analysis. The fourth volume, which is to cover functional analysis, distributions, and parts of probability theory, will complete the series.
This volume lives up to the high standard set up by the previous ones.
Fernando Q. Gouvêa is Professor of Mathematics at Colby College, where he occasionally gets to teach some analysis.

Selected Press
Katie, from Yarn Love, says:
I want to tell you a story. Even though you might not have realized it at the time, you're one of the heroes of the story.
Way back 2006 I started Yarn Love. We had our growing pains, but together Yarn Love and I have been steadily making more money than we spend. We even reached the point where family members (Ok, my mom & my husband, but they're the Big Two anyway….) started bragging about how well we were doing to co-workers and acquaintances.
After a lot of thought and planning I hired a marketing company to help us forge new connections and to provide some assistance with small tasks so I could spend more of my time increasing sales. And it worked! 6 months into the new partnership we had gross sales which were equal to our two previous yearly totals. I was working my tushie off, but making sales!
The problem was that I made –$1800 during that time. Yes, I had new connections, and new sales but every time I received a bill it was for more money. There were extra charges that I didn't know about before hand, but the work was already done. I was spending more money than I was making and I felt totally out of control.
I was so discouraged. I was crushed. I thought more than once about closing Yarn Love just so I wouldn't have to deal with disappointing myself and my husband.
But I didn't. I found you.
I dug your book off my shelf and got started. I gave myself 6 months to turn things around. Along the way I purchased your Map Making guide to help me with a tidy, executable plan, because I can work a plan like nobody's business.
I'm 6 weeks into my first quarterly map.
In 6 weeks, I have made more than $5000 of profit. I have streamlined my business processes. I have spent half of every other day at the pool with my kids. (In other words, I'm rocking family life and having fun, too.)
So thank you, Tara. You were just what I needed. There aren't enough words in the English language to express my gratitude for your help and insights.
-Mary Carol, Azalea Bindery
Working with Tara always gets me so excited to keep working– the energy to get stuff done is as invaluable as her advice! No more Avoidypants!
Heatherly says,
Over a year ago I bought Market Yourself. After reading it, I stepped back at recognized what it was about me that was unique, a niche.
Out of that I wrote a book proposal. It was accepted, instantly, no questions asked!
Which means I have a book coming out.
I am now working on book two.
Thank You!
Abby Kerr says:
Tara Swiger has this special thing about her which her right people recognize immediately: she's got the ability to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with those she's teaching, while at the same time, standing out as a leader and a go-to voice in the craft-your-own-business niche.
She's kind, funny, smart, empathetic, resourceful, and masterful.
She knows her stuff and is invested in making sure you know yours, too.
She wants you to succeed on your own terms, not hers or anyone else's.
Lori-Ann says
The Starship has sure helped me keep going, even at my (sometimes very) slow pace.
I appreciate knowing that there is an audience out there of supporters and experienced colleagues who can chip in with ideas and thoughts and suggestions about what I might have going on. Or want to have going on, but don't really yet.
Kirstyn says,
It was a lot of fun. The material really guides you look deep into what you are trying to not only communicate with your blog, but take a deeper look into who your customers are, why you are communicating with them and provide clarity into what your business is all about.
I am getting a great deal of insight from the questions, the feedback and all the discussions from everyone!
I'd sign up for another class in a heart beat!
Kristine says,
I love that the Starship is filled with different kinds of crafters, all moving to the same goal: expanding their knowledge and growing themselves and their business. And Tara, the brave leader of our Starship, is here to *nurture* us in being comfortable with our decisions, and *nudge* us to make smart steps forward.
Skaja says,
Working with Tara helps me bring focus and clarity to what I'm doing for my business. The classes help answer a lot of the questions I have, and there hasn't been a single instance of me talking with Tara (or any of the other awesome people in the Starship) that I haven't come away with a great idea or way of accomplishing something on my list. She deserves lots of sparkle points for the work she does.
I got so much from the most recent class! SO incredibly informative and helpful! I dub thee Tara Awesomepants!
-Joyce, FlyingKettle.com
Wow. Just…wow. That was so helpful. The stuff I kinda already knew, Tara totally put it all together and crystallized it in a way that really, really helps. -Anna P.

Scott says,
At the time I hired Tara, I was completely swamped with client work. I needed someone to fix my messaging without a lot of back and forth or direction. I was skeptical that I'd be adding more work to my already-full plate.
This is what happened: we talked on the phone for an hour and a few days later Tara emailed me a fully formed offer page for my website. That was it.
Not only did she distill and clarify the the main elements of my mission, she cut through the crap that was holding me back from explaining myself in a straight-forward way. I've started quoting her words directly when talking to potential clients.
The whole process was easy, low-pressure, and exactly what I wanted.
Havi Brooks says,
I think I might have sprained my wrist, I was scribbling Tara's brilliant ideas so quickly. Seriously, I am in AWE of the sheer amount of usefulness her brain can spew out. It was all so crisp, so clear and so exactly what I needed. But my favorite part was how completely non-judgmental Tara was with the stuff I wanted to figure out, and how genuinely excited she got about my latest project-babies.
(Anyone thinking about hiring Tara — you will get soooo much more than what you're paying for. This service is basically the best thing in the entire world.)

LAS CRUCES, N.M. (Feb. 9) - The New Mexico State women's basketball team suffered another close loss Thursday evening, this time at Idaho, 62-59 in overtime, despite two impressive performances from young Aggie guards at the Vandals' Cowan Spectrum.
NM State freshman guard Simone Ruedin made her second career start and played 39 minutes at the point for the Aggies while scoring a career-high 13 points, including 10 in the second half. Sophomore guard Dré Chenier also posted a season high of 13 points off the bench for NM State - all coming after halftime.
With 10 points, senior forward Kelsie Rozendaal bookended the Aggie scoring in regulation. She recorded the first five points of the game for NM State and drained a late three for the Crimson and White's final field goal of the game. Senior forward Tabytha Wampler missed several minutes with foul trouble but still managed 11 points including the Aggies' only tally in overtime.
Idaho scored the first six points of the game and never trailed through the first 59 minutes of action. However, a 7-0 NM State run with less than five minutes in regulation put the Aggies on top for the first time in the contest, 58-55, following a three-point basket from Rozendaal with 22 seconds remaining.
The Vandals quickly moved the ball up the floor and hit a three-pointer of their own to knot the game at 58-58 with seven ticks left. A last-second attempt by the Aggies missed the mark.
In overtime, Wampler's early free throw put NM State up 59-58. UI knotted the score at 59-59 seconds later with a free throw on its end. After a couple of scoreless minutes a trey from Idaho put the Vandals up 62-59 with 95 seconds left. NM State had a chance to tie the game in the final seconds but could not convert.
NM State drops to 5-18 overall and 2-6 in the WAC after the loss. Idaho improves to 8-16 this season and 3-5 in conference play. The teams split the season series with each winning on its home court. The Aggies are now 2-8 this season in games decided by four points or less.
NM State shot 37 percent from the floor (22-60). The Aggies were best from behind the arc, shooting 43 percent (6-14). The Aggies held Idaho to 40 percent shooting (21-52). The Vandals shot a little better from long range at 47 percent (8-17). Both teams shot well from the line, 82 percent (9-11) for NM State and 75 percent (12-16) for UI. The Vandals edged the Aggies on the glass in the game, 35-34. The Aggies committed 14 turnovers but forced Idaho into 15.
UI jumped out to a 6-0 lead in the first two minutes but Rozendaal closed the gap with five straight to trim the lead to one early. A three from Wampler tied the game at 8-8 with 16:36 left in the first. Wampler tied it again at 10-10 a few minutes later.
UI went on an 8-2 run to go up 18-12 approaching the midpoint of the half. The Aggies answered with a 7-2 rally to cut the Vandal lead to one at 20-19 with 8:20 before the break.
NM State then went cold from the field late in the half. Idaho held the Aggies off the scoreboard for more than seven minutes to build its largest lead of the game at 34-22 with under a minute to go in the first. A late NM State bucket made it 34-24 Idaho at the half.
Ruedin and Chenier carried the Aggie offense after the break with Wampler on the bench in foul trouble. Idaho maintained its advantage through the first five minutes after intermission. But the young Aggie guards sparked an 11-3 run in the middle of the half to close NM State to within two of the UI lead, 48-46, with 7:40 left.
The Vandals held onto the lead but then went cold to end the second half much like the Aggies in the first. NM State kept Idaho without a field goal for over five minutes to help the Aggies go ahead 58-55 with 22 seconds remaining, after a 7-0 run. Idaho's three-pointer with seven ticks left sent the game into overtime.
Idaho sophomore Alyssa Charlston led the team with a game-high 17 points. Keri Arendse who hit the Vandals' three in OT finished with 12 and center Jessica Graham added 10 tallies.
NM State continues its road trip at Utah State on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. in Logan, Utah. Fans can listen to the game live on the Aggie Sports Radio Network on KSNM 570 AM with play-by-play from Kyle Doperalski. The game will also be picked up by AggieVision with a live feed from Utah State.

New Member Education Guidelines
New Members should be selected because chapter members feel the person will make positive contributions to the organization through their commitment to lifelong membership and service as a leader. It should be obvious that such members will contribute to the strength of the organization and add value to its reputation in seeking to meet national standards.
Following the close of recruitment, New Member Education (NME) is a period of time that facilitates much reflection for students recently joining the Greek community. Through a number of positive, low-risk programs and team-building experiences, a strong NME experience should:
- Teach new members about the history and values of their organization,
- Aid new members in defining how their personal values fit into the context of their chapter,
- Further develop one's interpersonal relationships with other members.
It is our hope that at the end of NME, fraternity and sorority members will feel confident in their ability to consistently make responsible decisions that align with the values of their organization.
The current guidelines are consistent with Washington and Lee's mission statement, as well as the rules of the national Greek organizations represented on our campus. We, as a unified Greek community, must continue our work to establish lasting credibility--making responsible and consistent choices which reflect honesty, integrity, and civility. There is a middle ground that allows Greek Life and NME programming to be fun, yet safe and positive for everyone involved. Achieving and sustaining that middle ground requires all new and existing members to practice awareness, balance, and respect.
"Hazing Hotline"
An e-mail account for reporting: email@example.com
Monitored by the Division of Student Affairs.
All NME Programs at W&L shall be consistent with the core values of the University, including honor and respect for others. They should not inhibit the pursuit of academic excellence or detract from a new member's personal dignity. A healthy NME program will encourage participation in activities such as outdoor adventures (hiking, kayaking, caving, etc.), participation in the ropes course, attending or watching athletic events, coordinating service projects, hosting study sessions, etc.

Deciding where to teach is the most important decision you make after deciding to move abroad, but the options for teaching English can seem overwhelming. Here is some guidance.
First of all, keep in mind that the cost of living is about a half of that in the U.S., so you do not need to make as much to live decently and can often even save money. In addition, many full-time teachers are given free housing or a stipend to cover costs, some receive free health care, as well as paid vacation.
For professional teachers, there are really two options:
Working for universities is not lucrative and often does not pay for airfare, but usually includes room and board and gives you the chance to work with students who often already have a fairly high level of English.
Be Tentative and Flexible
With a flexible approach to life and work and understanding that all plans are potentially tentative, I was able to fully enjoy my time teaching in China.
Foreigners often go to China and expect it to be like the West. It isn't. Teachers (and workers in general) often do not have the same working hours we have here and there is lots of bureaucratic red tape. But despite the
difficulties, it is an unforgettable experience, exposing you to a completely different life and giving you the chance to make lifelong friends and to challenge yourself.
EslCafe.com is the mother of all teaching English abroad websites, providing job openings and training schools around the world, often with airfares
The following websites provide job notices, business English teaching, tutoring, and especially summer camps; they also have advertisements for other jobs, both part and full-time. Invaluable for their classifieds,
these are also monthly magazines that provide tons of info on these two major cities:
Top Jobs Teaching English in China (provides a daily updated and selected job feed).
China TEFL Network (mostly university job links, but the site also has some other schools).
Ask Questions!
First of all, talk to foreign teachers at schools where you are thinking about working, and get as much information as possible, including:
EVE BERGAZYN taught for two years in China for a variety of schools and programs. Recently repatriated to the U.S., she is now writing freelance and dreaming of her next trip to China.

Elliot Benyon fired the Gulls ahead after just six minutes, spinning on Jordan Chapell's shot to beat City goalkeeper Michael Ingham from 10 yards. Ingham could do nothing about Ryan Jarvis' winner, a thumping 20-yard drive into the top corner after 23 minutes.
York striker Richard Cresswell reduced the arrears with a 73rd-minute penalty after Torquay left-back, and last man, Thomas Cruise was sent-off for denying Josh Carson a goalscoring opportunity, but it was too little, too late for the Minstermen.
It was 19th-placed Torquay's second 2-1 home win in five days and moved them five points clear of second-bottom York with six games remaining.
"The game is 90 minutes long not 20 and you cannot afford to give the opposition a two-goal start because it's tough going getting back into it," Worthington said. "We gave away two very soft goals.
"But I thought they showed a lot of spirit and they passed the ball a lot better than we have been, which I was very pleased with.
"But we need a ruthless streak and more conviction around the opposition goal and I think that is down to self-belief, and when you have gone 15 matches without a win it's bound to have an effect on confidence.
"It's about being brave and taking the responsibility on and making it happen. There were a few situations where we could have made things happen and we didn't. You really have to make things happen in this game and if you wait for them to happen, they don't happen.
"Games are running down, time is running down so we need to do it sooner rather than later.
"There's six games left for us now. We need the points on the board and we have another long trip away to Bristol Rovers next weekend."

-Opening video and pyro
We are in Indianapolis, IN. Lilian Garcia introduces Mr. McMahon. He power-walks to the ring and says they had to find someone with charisma, character, and experience for the GM position. He introduces Booker T to a nice pop. Cole says his prayers have been answered because Booker will no longer be on commentary.
Booker comes to the ring and shakes Vince's hand. Vince leaves and Booker thanks Vince and the Board. He is interrupted by Alberto del Rio.
Del Rio congratulates him. Booker says he has to suck-up better than that. Del Rio starts to talk about Sheamus and how he is a peasant. Sheamus' music hits and he comes to the ring. Sheamus congratulates Booker and they shake. He invites Booker to go drinking after the show. Sheamus cuts a promo on Del Rio and how he isn't going to wrestle until SummerSlam. Booker says that, in fact, both men have singles matches tonight. Del Rio says he will not compete. Booker tells him that all his money doesn't help him hear better. Booker gets in his face and says he's the boss and Del Rio will compete. Booker says he will face Randy Orton. Del Rio leaves, unhappily.
Booker tells Sheamus not to go anywhere because he's up next against this man Tensai. Sheamus looks amused. They cut to a split-screen pre-recorded promo of Tensai referring to Sheamus and the Brogue Kick, in Japanese. I guess Tensai already knew about the match ahead of time.
Sheamus vs. Tensai
Sheamus takes control but Tensai slaps him. Tensai is a much larger man than Sheamus. Sheamus takes him down with and unloads with punches. Tensai knocks him down but misses with the elbow. Sheamus comes back with knees and a dropkick which sends Tensai to the outside. Sheamus brings him back in but Tensai hits headbutts in the corner. Sheamus comes back with kicks and comes off the top and misses but rolls through. Sheamus clotheslines him over the top. Sheamus comes off the apron but is caught and rammed into the steel post.
Back in the ring, Sheamus tries to come back but is shut down. Tensai gets a 2. Tensai applies a bearhug and continues to work the back and kidneys. Sheamus makes a comeback with elbows but gets a boot to the head with more punches and headbutts. Tensai tries to go up top but Sheamus knocks him off and he goes flying to the floor. Sheamus hits forearms to the chest on the apron and Tensai is bruised-up on his stomach. Sheamus hits a powerslam but gets 2. Tensai hits his chokeslam spinebuster but Sheamus kicks out. Sheamus ducks out of the corner, hits the ropes, and connects with the Brogue Kick for the win.
Winner by pin: Sheamus
We go to a shot of Eve's legs. She is sitting in Booker's office and when he arrives she gets up and says she wanted to be the first to congratulate him. She tries to put herself over as a good assistant. Booker says he will let her know, first-hand. Teddy Long shows up and says Booker has earned it. (Teddy used to manage Booker in WCW). Booker offers Teddy a position on his staff. Teddy accepts. Booker tells Eve that all the positions have been filled. She leaves, in disgust.

I've tried this with a few friends, and the trick is to keep Omen moving along with as many movement-impairing effects up on him as possible. We had a mage there slinging Frostbolts at him, a shaman shocking him with Frost Shock, and of course a hunter laying down his Concussive Shots and Frost Traps. I was there on my warrior issuing the occasional Taunt just in case one of the DPS made a mistake and got too close (this was never a problem).
After a while, I think it took us about 30 minutes (although we did take our dear time), we got him down to the gates of Orgrimmar. For some reason the Orgrimmar guards didn't like us to well. It might have been because we brought this gigantic dog to their doorsteps, or because we were Alliance and they thought we might grab our swords and fight the Horde. Either way, we high tailed it out to a safe distance and let them take care Omen for us.
A fun adventure had by all! Many thanks to Zentax on the Frostmourne US server, who took the picture at the top of the post when someone kited Omen on his server. And if you've got a couple minutes, check out this neat YouTube video we covered last year of him being kited around.
I've heard that some classes can kite him down to Orgrimmar by themselves, though I haven't seen anyone doing it just yet. Anyone else heard this? What are your experiences kiting Omen half way across the western kingdom?
