Ex-Officio: Kent Neely.
II CORRECTIONS AND APPROVAL OF MINUTES: 27 April 2010 (document A)
Approved without correction.
Katherine Schmidt, Faculty Senate (document B)
Scott Beaver gave a report. He met with Provost Neely Thursday afternoon. After hearing concerns of many faculty at meetings, it was requested that Provost Neely order paper SIRs for this term. Provost Neely said it that sounded reasonable, but he would check into logistics and timeline of it. Provost Neely, Wanda and Julie did that and found the paper SIRs could be ordered and processed in time so they would be here before the last week of classes. Provost Neely ordered the paper SIRs and they should be here within seven days and then the process begins to get those going. Campus-wide announcement will be sent out concerning cessation of paper. It is planned to move to the online SIR as soon as possible, at most by the end of the next bargaining cycle. Scott Beaver thanked Provost Neely for his efforts in this matter.
President Schmidt announced the Executive Officer Nomination Committee, including, Mark Girod, Scott Beaver, Elaina Jamison and Jeananne Rockwell-Kincannon.
President Schmidt reviewed executive officer positions and things most important in those positions not found in the bylaws. Showed document on overhead which can be found online. Item #6 for the president, representing faculty, usually a between 8-20 hours, depending on time of year. Item #7 (in bylaws) for vice president to serve as a visible parliamentarian. Requires 3-4 hours a week for one-year commitment. Secretary 6-8 hours per week and one year commitment. If committee for next year chooses to employ a minute-taker, the responsibility goes down to about 4-6 hours per week. This includes executive committee meetings and senate attendance. For at-large members (not found in bylaws) concerns mouse facilitator during meetings and requires about three hours per week and a one-year commitment. Past president has been advising on management matters. It is about two hours a week and he shows up for meetings. This is available online.
Elections to be held in two weeks. All new senators will be voting that day.
Will be electing Committee-on-Committee members today and need one more candidate in the newly constituted senate category. That element will be postponed until two weeks because several divisions have not voted and they do not have senators yet.
Introduced new senators: Tracy Smiles, Maria Dantas-Whitney, Cheryl Beaver, Mike LeMaster, and Michael Freeman
Provost Neely announced there was no report from provost council. It will meet on Thursday.
Proposal: Music Theatre Emphasis, Michael Phillips (doc C).
Dean Braa moved to accept; Elaina Jamieson seconded.
Motion passed to approve Musical Theatre Emphasis to become an option in the existing BA/BS in Theatre.
Memo: Native American Language Policy, Wanda Clifton-Faber (doc D).
Dean Braa moved to accept; Scott Beaver seconded.
Motion passed to endorse Native American Language as a second language policy.
Revise Add/Drop Form. Mary Harden indicated need for a change in wording of the form because of problems with faculty forgetting to check off boxes in Reason Box. This would reduce amount of time students are going back and forth if boxes are not checked.
David Doellinger mentioned grading method so students cannot modify form.
This will be the first item of "old business" in two weeks.
Incomplete Grade Policy. Mary Harden indicated that since Summer 2008 there have been 1815 incomplete grades recorded and 930 not removed from books. The problem is excessive paperwork in files when an instructor forgets to fill out form and students do nothing to fix. The result is failing to complete the course. It is suggested that students missing essential coursework for legitimate reason and are doing average or better, should be given the average grade at the end of the term with provision that they have up to 12 months to improve their grade. Incentive will be for students to improve GPA and diminish excessive paperwork. This puts responsibility on students to complete this.
If students who miss essential coursework with below average grades would have 12 months to complete coursework, but if work is not completed, grade will be changed to an F. If student graduates with incomplete courses, it will be permanent.
Instructors and students responsible to form contract for completion of coursework. It is instructor's discretion if student has legitimate excuse to be given extension to complete work and possibility of improving grade. If instructor does not initiate a grade change, it does not change. Gives students incentive to hurry to get work completed.
Hilda Rosselli was concerned if this would be able to be implemented by fall and be included in all handbooks. Would policy be able to come into agreement within all departments and have consistency? Would this influence students to try to get out of major course work at the end of term?
Mary Harden reiterated the issue driving this issue is the number of incompletes in files. This is the only institution (school) that does not convert Incompletes to F's.
Scott Beaver wanted clarification of difference between not completing a course whether a student is doing well or not completing it because they are doing poorly.
Dean Scheck commented that records peppered with I's show a student has no follow-through. I's that stay permanently are "mercy F's" and a way for students to avoid F grades.
Mark Girod concerned about more students debating grades.
Provost Neely suggested that I's be awarded for extenuating circumstances to give the student time to make up course work.
Mary Harden will consider taking back to committee to discuss further. Maybe there should be more stringent conditions.
Committee-on-Committee ballots were distributed to senators for 2010/2011 election. Ballots collected and counted. 17 for Jason Waite/0 write-ins. 17 for Katherine Schmidt/0 write-ins. 17 for Bryan Dutton/0 write-ins. Someone volunteered Amanda Smith to be the senator for the newly constituted senate, but that result cannot be counted.
President Schmidt wanted to remind all that they are planning to make committee more functional, proactive and recognizable in two years.
Moved Dean Braa, Seconded Jason Waite.

Thanks, guys, these comments have helped a lot. I asked my coach Mike Massie about it and he said there are "wind" chokes (arm, fist, whatever, across front of throat) and "blood" chokes (that shut off one or both carotids). I have been choked both ways, but the "wind" choke (gagging, plus I could HEAR stuff crunching in my throat, great sound effects :) was so painful I figured it would tend to cause "too much" damage (uh, permanent or something) -- but now...... just gotta find someplace to try/use it -- and NOT on my coach -- payback would be a serious bitch.

My approach as a piano and flute teacher is to endow each student with the skills and tools needed to improve his/her playing ability, increase musical expression and cultivate continued musical growth both in lessons and in practice time. With nine years of teaching experience, I understand that each student's learning style, goals and interests vary, and I work to engage and delight every student.
My training in Music Performance at New York University, from which I graduated Summa Cum Laude, as well as my three-year, 1600-hour training to become a certified teacher of the Alexander Technique, which I completed in 2012, influence my teaching. The Alexander Technique is a method for integrating breathing, movement and postural support. It is invaluable for musicians as a tool to increase performance ability and a sense of ease in the body, as well as for injury prevention and pain management.
Prior to NYU, I studied at California State University, Sacramento (CSUS), where I acted as principal flutist of the orchestra and wind ensemble in addition to receiving a scholarship as the flutist of the Liberace Woodwind Quintet.
My musical training started well before university, however. My first instrument was piano, which I studied throughout my childhood and adolescence, with further study at NYU with Jon Holden. I started learning the flute at the age of 10 and studied privately with Laurel Zucker throughout high school, continuing my study with her at CSUS. I then continued my flute study with Gary Schocker, both privately and at NYU.
I continue to improve my knowledge and understanding of music through frequent performances, master classes and study. My goal as a teacher is to teach with the aim of aiding the student's musical development and provide the student with the skills to continue to learn on his/her own between lessons and beyond.
*** Lesson Details ***
Lessons are organized around a student's current level, goals and difficulties. I meet students wherever they are in their musical development. During the lesson, I address essential musical elements like tone, technique and musicality and offer new ideas in an environment where rich musical learning can take place.
My training as a certified Alexander Technique teacher allows me to offer physical suggestions for playing the instrument, at any ability level.
I encourage students to choose repertoire and find their own unique musical style, preferences and tastes.
I look forward to joining you on your own musical journey, and seeing how I can help you along the way!
*** Specialties ***
Classical Music, Music Performance, Music Theory, Alexander Technique, Playing-Related Pain and Injury
Certification to teach the Alexander Technique. Requirements include three years and 1600 hours of training, in addition to continued education to maintain certification.

There was nothing new in the Bishop England-Waccamaw boys tennis rivalry this spring.
For the 11th straight season, perennial state power Waccamaw ended the Bishops' season in the state playoffs as the Warriors (13-3) cruised to a 5-0 victory Thursday afternoon at Pawleys Island in the Lower State Class AA final.
Only junior Lukas Zalesky managed to win a set for the Bishops (13-4), but Waccamaw eighth-grader Paul Hendrix took the third-set tiebreaker for a 7-5, 3-6, 10-4 victory at No. 1 singles.
"I feel good about the year. We had a good season," said first-year BE boys coach Kristin Fleming, whose girls team has won two straight state titles. "We just came up short.
"They (Waccamaw) are a tough team. I knew they were strong and that we would have to play extremely well to have a chance."
With the Bishops only losing No. 3 Jack Roberts and No. 5 Tristan Fletcher to graduation, Fleming is looking forward to next season. "I feel comfortable with the team we have coming back," she said.
SINGLES: Paul Hendrix (W) def. Lukas Zalesky, 7-5, 3-6, 10-4; Justin Dunn (W) def. Noak Stiepel, 6-4, 6-2; Matt Fisher (W) def. Jack Roberts, 6-2, 6-3; Joey Hewes (W) def. Jeff Jones, 6-1, 6-1; Alex Czechner (W) def. Tristan Fletcher, 6-2, 7-5.

Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) is a group of inherited immune system disorders. The immune system is made up of special cells, tissues, and organs. It helps the body fight infections. In these disorders, some of the cells in the immune system that fight infections (T cells and B cells) are missing or do not work well. The disorders are inherited and are there at birth.
Infants born with SCID do not gain weight or grow at a healthy rate, which doctors call failure to thrive. An infant with SCID will have a lot of severe bacterial, viral, or fungal infections that often keep coming back after they are treated with drugs. If left untreated, babies with severe SCID will usually die from infections within a year.
These disorders are rare. In the United States, they affect about one out of 100,000 babies born.1 There are about 100 different types of SCID.
Types of SCID
Two of the most common are Classical X-linked SCID and ADA deficiency SCID.
Classical X-linked SCID – A large number of patients with SCID have classical X-linked SCID (sometimes called "bubble boy" disease). Patients with this type of SCID have very few working white blood cells to fight infection. Only boys can have this type of SCID.
ADA deficiency SCID – A small number of patients with SCID have ADA SCID. These patients have low levels of an infection-fighting molecule in the body called ADA. Boys and girls can have this type of SCID. A few forms of ADA SCID don't cause problems until later in childhood, adolescence, or even adulthood.

I tried this place and all I can say is if you actually know steak, give it a miss.

I was in New York remembering my late wife who died a week before,so I was a bit melancholy before making my way to Sammy's on Saturday night. She loved this place alot and introduced me to the restaurant years ago. What a culinary tribute. The eggplant salad is a wonderful starter along with the roasted green peppers. Had the Rumanian garlic sausages(real garlicy) and the large skirt steak(medium rare). 1st class-along with the mashed potaotes w/ chicken fat and fried onions. Egg creams and home made rugelach. Sammy and his staff are warm and gracious too! I left and took a extra Lipitor before bedding down for the evening!

For anyone who hasn't been to this place, it's a MUST DO, be you Jewish or not. It's a great way to let go and just enjoy yourself as the food keeps coming and coming. If you don't like meat, don't go. The place isn't kosher, but well worth it. My kishkes are still in heaven 2 days later! The atmosphere is fantastic and you are guaranteed to have a good time....or you can come find me and hurt me.

unique sort of eclectic atmosphere... bottle of vodka frozen in a block of ice as the house specialty... definitely a good time.

He's about as good as Roundtree. No NFL.
this week in unintentionally grim-sounding recruiting headlines
He's about as good as Roundtree. No NFL.
I realize Gardner is in his first year at wr but he hasn't shown me anything that makes me thing he's going to be anything special.
So you think there was no reaosn to move Gardner? I mean he was pretty awsome when he came in when Denard waas hurt last year wasn't he? Of course he was and I never saw calls for Bellomey to put in then either. I have no idea how this ended up here
"I mean he was pretty awsome when he came in when Denard waas hurt last year wasn't he?"
Uh no.
Your son had really great recruiting rankings. But that talent has not shone on the football field.
We MUST be talking about different Devin Gardners. You're right he's not a good receiver, he runs lazy routes and doesn't go for the ball. As for the QBing part I remember him playing QB the last 2 years with the exception of 1 long pass in the spring and a few hilariously bad backwards running videos it was forgetable.
Not taking a QB last year looks alot worse tho. I can't see Shane Morris starting next year, maybe we can get one to transfer from the ACC like Wisconsin
I think I'd feel better if we gave Gibbons a chance at QB! Bellomy looks like he's never seen a football.
The problem is that he should still be buried on the bench...
With Shane no2 and Gardner the presumable no3. This is why I'm scared
I am shocked Bellamy was the 35th ranked QB. Really? If so there must be a tremendous drop off btw 25 and 35.
Navarre is happy noe?
My brother (who is at the game right now) is one of the leading "Denard is NOT a QB" idiots. I hope he enjoyed seeing what our offense looked like without him.
Seriously, no TDs against MSU or UNL. What do you want!? Borges Appologists?
Bellomy is playing like a Purdue commit should play!!! Makes no sense 18.8 comp pct 38 yds and 3 picks but yet we have a 5* quarterback playing wideout!!
Could not agree with you more
Does Phil Coke have any eligibility left?
take Bauserman with Bollman calling plays at this point.
You guys act like this team wasnt horrid for 3 years before coming outta nowhere last year, it does take time to go from the cellar to the attic. Bellomy will be better prepared next week.
Think he'll have that next week too?
honestly, I am a million percent confident Gardner could do just as bad. At least, Devin can run with the ball and it's not like he was doing shit as a receiver anyway.
Jack Kennedy should've had a shot. JDK and Rey, FTW!
Borges and company quit and left the defense is a bind. Everybody on this site wanted to see Bellomy as the back up and Devin Gardner suck as a QB based on a few plays he ran. He never really had a chance to show anybody what he really can do. IJS.

Gardner didn't suck. He had good moments and bad moments in very limited duty.
Gardner should have been put in. Borges should have run zone read with Gardner as our backup plan. WE can NOT run a pro style with or without Denard at this point in the Hoke era.. This one is on Borges.
Hoke is the HC and has the final say on everything that takes place with this team.
Knows 1 side of game and trusts coordinator on other side.
Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
"Trusts defensive coordinator" is not one of my prominent memories of those years, especially the first one.
Knows 1 side of game and trusts coordinator on other side.
If RR had actually followed this dictum, he'd still be our coach.
UM went two straight games without scoring a TD??
Last time Michigan went without a touchdown at all before this year was 2007 against OSU, and then against OSU again in 2002.
As for two in a row, you'd have to go back to 1962, when we got shut out three games in a row.
Nearly this whole place was following the fearless leader in thinking that moving DG to WR was a great idea, "swing for the fences!" Now everybody is pissed that the guy who should be a 3rd string QB is really bad and had to play because the 2nd string guy is at WR. And there are some people who seem to think that the 3rd string QB is totally good but was getting bad play calls, because for a fan it is always, always, the coaches and not the players who are fault.
Amen brother. I was giggling to self at all the "next Calvin Johnson" types for Devin due to his size. Again if all it took was being 6'4 and 215 lbs to be a WR - every WR would be that size.
Devin is ok at WR and probably gives him a better chance at the next level than QB. He has shown little at QB and the coaches would not be flipping him out to that position if they thought he was the answer for 2013.
Frankly I am surprised at his role this year - I thought he'd be a hybrid WR/QB not a full time WR. I would have liked to see him in more of the sets last year when both he and DRob were on field at same time - you can do a lot of trick plays in that formation and more importantly keep the defense thinking. The pure WR thing tells me the coaches really have zero plans for him at QB this year or next.
This game showed some serious incompetence on our coaching staff for the 1st time IMO
They obviosly lied about having Garder still take some reps at qb in practice. Bellomy doesn't even have the armstrength to make basic throws...very disappointing
Perhaps now Hoke will not put Dennard on the kick return team Since he has seen what happens when he gets a "boo-boo". Denard basically banged his ulnar nerve, so he should be good for next week. Kevin Chung will see to it
Michigan doesn't have any WR or a RB. No matter who you put in it won't matter if you can't throw or run.
You know you guys are right where is the good burnin' couch? These coaches don't know what they are doing we should never had fired RR he beat USC tonight.
if brady hadn't have been forced to boot stonum, devin would have remained the backup qb. my question for the board is- has his contribution at wide receiver been sufficient to justify not having a suitable backup for a running qb?
I had no issue with moving Devin to WR as he had shown very little in his mop up opportunities the past few years. I did not feel he would be a great WR as some did on the blog as they salivated over his measurables. If just being 6'4" and 215 lbs made you a great WR every tall thin dude would be a prime WR. Just as every 6'8 guy in the country would play basketball.
So I think we are sort of screwed - Devin has not practiced much at QB, and when he was practicing the past few years I believe he showed little outside of athleticism. Bellomy has no arm strength as shown by the last INT. WRs dropped a few passes but still he seemed overwhelmed. We just have to pray Robinson came come back next week.
...that Gardner has been taken out of the QB rotation. You'd have to be an idiot to not go to a better option if we had one. Borges is not an idiot...the man must know thousands of variations on offense, and yet...
I just don't know...not ripping Russ, but he's clearly not ready yet. And the last 2 games have had such uninspired and predictable playcalling.
I hope everything is OK for Al in his personal life.
Get off Borges dick.3 of 8 games without a TD with Denard running the offense.Borges is with his what,8th school.He's not a genius,he's a journeyman. May soon be looking for another gig.If he can't score td's with denard, good luck with Bellomy.
It was obvious Bellomy was out of his league. Gardner without snaps in practice is better than what we just witnessed. Absolutely ridiculous.
Loud Noises!
Is it Bellomy? Is it Borges? Is it the lack of Denard?
BTW Arizona beat USC; Rich Rodriguez is happy.
This offense sucks and will continue to suck next year too with the plays Borges run.
The REAL question is, "are YOU going to continue to suck?"
That's all part of switching systems. We were extremely fortunate that RR didn't pull an LC on the way out, and extremely fortunate that Denard wanted a degree from the University of Michigan more than he wanted a Heisman. Unfortunately, we were not fortunate enough to watch Denard get a full season of good health.
I'll say the same thing I said when RR struggled: shit happens, and don't judge the coaching staff until they have their own fifth-year seniors. Besides, does anyone really think that Hoke and Borges aren't going to stay up all night trying to figure out their options here?
See you go sparty in a thread and the trolls come calling. Go to sleep and lets reconviene tomorrow when we are much more retospective and coherent.

The annual American Cancer Society's Relay for Life is set to take place this weekend at the Scioto County Fairgrounds.
Opening ceremonies for the event are set to take place at 6 p.m. Friday, June 21 with a survivors lap and the annual survivor dinner served at 6:30 p.m. The dinner is offered free of charge to cancer survivors and a guest.
After the survivor dinner there will be an auction, with proceeds benefiting the American Cancer Society.
Every year a group of volunteers organize the event to raise funds for the American Cancer Society. Prior to the event in 2012, the group set a goal of raising $94,000. By the time the event concluded, they had raised $117,000. The fund raising goal for 2013 is $115,000.
Rosie Williams, the Scioto County Chair, said, "All of our lives have been touched by cancer in some form or another and when it comes to you having to face the loss of a loved one, or the potential of losing your own life, events like this becomes real important."
Williams said there are 33 teams signed up to participate in this year's relay. She said teams have been busy working to raise money and awareness for the event throughout the year.
As the event progresses throughout the night, teams will continue to raise funds through the selling of various items and food.
Other events are set to take place throughout the relay include the lighting of the luminaries.
"One of the favorite parts of the Relay for Life is the lighting of the luminaries that contain the names of those being remembered by their loved ones. They could have passed on or they can also be remembered because they survived to have more birthdays," Williams said.
Luminaries can be purchased from any member of the 33 Relay for Life team members.
Also throughout the night there is expected to be a plethora of entertainment from 7 p.m. through midnight to entertain participants.
For more information about the Scioto County Relay for Life call Williams at 354-4363.

10 New Films to Stream on Netflix This July
(Via The Master)
Each week Yahoo Tech's Alyssa Bereznak will help you pick the best movies and shows to stream online.
As July creeps up on us, Netflix is dumping a big batch of new movies into its library. Some gems include wonderful early '90s tearjerkers like My Girl, cheesy late-'80s comedies like Honey I Shrunk the Kids, and steamy '90s thrillers like Basic Instinct.
Yes, Netflix is in no short supply of flicks from 20 years ago. But that's not to say there aren't a few more recent titles in the group, most notably Christian Bale's Out of the Furnace and the Scientology-inspired The Master. Or if you want to get way classic, try Audrey Hepburn's iconic film Funny Face.
No matter your chronological preference, it's time to crank up your air conditioner and queue up these titles for all those hot July nights when you just … can't.
Available now: Broadway actress Elaine Stritch is having a bit of a second coming as she approaches her 90th birthday. But that doesn't mean that she's enjoying herself. Earlier this year, she casually dropped the F-bomb on national television while dressed in fur. And last year she told Vanity Fair, "I'm about as unhappy as anybody can be."
This 2013 documentary follows the storied performer as she continues to be the fabulous and frank New York figure that she was born to be. It also features interviews from admirers Tina Fey, Alec Baldwin, Nathan Lane, James Gandolfini, and more.
Available June 30: Before Macaulay Culkin was playing in a band called Pizza Underground and wearing meta T-shirts, he was falling in love for the first time in My Girl. The tender 1991 film follows the adolescent romance between Vada (Anna Chlumsky) and Thomas (Culkin). Vada is a shy outcast with a mortician father, whose only real companion is Thomas. The two grow up together and eventually spark a romance. Then something really, really horrible happens and everyone's heart is broken. All I'll say is I had nightmares about bees for days after watching this.

Like Rover, Like Asteroid
Jet Propulsion Laboratory
October 11, 2004
Though they've never seen an asteroid, NASA's two robotic geologists have contributed so much to planetary exploration during their journeys across Mars that two asteroids have now been named after them. The rovers are the first planetary missions to be so honored.
"I think it's cool!" said Jim Erickson. "I think everyone on the mission feels that way. Those are our rovers. When something is named after them, we all get the honor. And those rovers deserve respect."
Erickson is project manager for the Mars Exploration Rover Mission at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California.
The asteroids, named Spirit and Opportunity after NASA's Mars Exploration Rovers, were discovered on Sept. 24, 1960 by Ingrid van Houten-Groeneveld, Cees J. van Houten, and Tom Gehrels. The trio spotted the moving masses of rock on photographic plates of the night sky taken with telescopes at Caltech's Palomar Observatory.
Both rovers have now been exploring Mars for almost three times as long as originally expected.
Thousands of Years of Immortality
It took more than 40 years to name the asteroids Spirit and Opportunity because both are quite faint. International Astronomical Union rules require asteroids to be observed during four separate cycles around the Earth and sun before they become eligible for numbering and naming, explained Ron Baalke, a software engineer at JPL. The more observations, the more precisely scientists can calculate the orbit. Baalke works in NASA's Near Earth Objects program, where he helps track and calculate the orbits of asteroids to identify those whose paths cross that of the Earth.
Spirit has a diameter of 4 kilometers to 9 kilometers (2.5 miles to 5.6 miles) and Opportunity has a diameter of 3 kilometers to 7 kilometers (1.9 miles to 4.4 miles). Van Houten-Groeneveld, who lives in the Netherlands, proposed the name recently after the asteroids were assigned an official number in 2002.
Both asteroids take 7.9 years to complete one orbit around the sun between Mars and the mammoth gaseous planet Jupiter. Neither follows a path that crosses the orbit of other planets and neither will be knocked out of orbit by the immense gravitational force of Jupiter. They belong to a small group of asteroids known as the Hilda group that have a 3:2 orbital resonance with Jupiter. This means that each time Jupiter completes two orbits around the sun, the asteroids complete three.
The honor renders the two Mars rovers immortal in the sense that the asteroids are in stable orbits that will last for thousands of years.

There are few things more frustrating than being shut down by an online business because of their terrible forms (#TOTALFAIL). Books (or tweets) could be written on the subject of form usability, as they are often the worst offenders in my travels on the web. I'm shocked when I'm confronted by an awful or broken form on the site for a large organization that relies on their brand to invoke some level of trust.
Here are a few ideas and highlights that the front end development and UX teams at NavigationArts have come up with to promote more friendly and usable forms.
Forms often perform the most critical task on your website- they connect a site owner to its users or customers. In his book, Web Form Design: Filling in the Blanks, Luke Wroblewski has listed the three main areas in which forms can help your business run smoothly:
The most obvious thing you should do is test your form. Make sure it behaves and responds as it should with both good and bad input.
A great way to offer some suggestions to your users about what content you are expecting is by using input mask plugins. There are some good plugins out there such as Dynamic Field Masking Plugin and the jQuery Masked Input Plugin to help you accomplish this.
Another great way to provide feedback about a particular form field without otherwise muddling up the interface is by using placeholder text- a tool supported in most modern browsers.
Contextual help, in the form of tooltips and icons, is another great tool to create user friendly forms. This is especially helpful when a field may require a more in-depth explanation than what can be provided by other means.
Native form elements often do not translate well on touch devices because of their size. Redesigning forms for touchable use is also a great opportunity to address the aesthetics of native forms which are, across the board, fairly drab and unappealing. Increasing the size of elements so that they can be more easily checked or clicked is important.
Using the appropriate HTML5 form elements is not only more semantically meaningful, but it also enables better usability on devices that can respond to the type of input with a more appropriate response. For example, instead of a text field for a phone number, input type=tel , on many devices the phone keypad is exposed instead of the QWERTY keypad.
Providing real time validation is often useful for keeping your users on track when filling out a form. It is a more satisfying experience for them to correct a field based on a validation hint than to see a big, ugly fail message flashing at them in red. Ouch!
In order to facilitate this on the front end there is an old standby jQuery plugin aptly called "Validation."
Forms are a key part of understanding your user and gaining relevant information from them to support and grow your business. By providing friendly and usable forms, you are allowing your users to feel successful, making them more likely to return to your site.

Meet Dr. Gregory Pham
Meet Dr. Garry Waldrop | Meet Dr. Gregory Pham | Meet the Team | What Sets Us Apart? | Our Blog
"Compassion, empathy and integrity" should be incorporated into the practice philosophy when searching for a healthcare provider. Early in his career, Dr. Gregory Pham was taught by one of his attending physician to adopt the idea that you should "treat every patient like they were your family with compassion, empathy and integrity". He has taken on this philosophy ever since and has been a part of his DNA as he treats each patient at Lifetime Dental Care.
Dr. Gregory M. Pham is the only oral and implant surgeon in the Houston area with the distinction of having postgraduate training that include general surgery as well as neurological surgery. He received his doctoral of dental surgery from the University of Texas Health and Science Center in 1997. After graduating from dental school he began postgraduate training in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Wilford Hall Medical Center in San Antonio and at the Texas Medical Center from 1997-2001. In 2005, Dr. Pham was granted acceptance into medical school in Tampa/Bradenton, Florida and matriculated until he earned his medical degree in 2009. Following medical school, he was accepted into a traditional general surgery internship followed by a neurological surgical residency under Javed Siddiqi MD, PhD program director at Arrowhead Regional Medical Center in San Bernardino, California. During his neurosurgery residency, he rotated through the program affiliated hospitals which include Kaiser Permanente of Fontana, Riverside Community Hospital, Redland Community Hospital, Desert Community Hospital; and Loma Linda Medical Center. In 2011, Dr. Pham forgoes his neurosurgery residency and returned to the Houston to practice of dentistry because of his desire to start a family.
His practice focuses on implant surgery, complex bone grafting techniques, all on four dental implants procedure, third molar extractions and intravenous sedation, as well as an expert in the techniques of botox and dermal fillers. He is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeon, a Fellow of the American Dental Society of Anesthesiology, Master in the International Congress of Oral Implantologists, actively working toward gaining fellowship status in the near future, memberships in the American Medical Association as well as the American Dental Association. He has successfully completed courses at the University of Texas Health Science Center maxi-implant course, Misch Implant Institute course, the Zimmer Fully Stimulated Comprehensive Implant Placement Course as well and Piko and Salaman Advance Bone Grafting course.

mopani wood will not stop leaching tannins
I have one in my brackish water tank that is currently 1.0025. I followed the manufacturer's directions and it has now been in the tank for 3 weeks and is still discoloring things enough I am doing 20% water changes every few days. I had heard that if you boil them for 2-4 hours, this helps, but it stunk the house out and had to quit after 15 minutes. Lots of tannin in that boiling water still. I am concerned bc even though the tannin cloudiness doesn't supposedly bother fish, it REALLY bothers my red claw crab. He hates it and as soon as it gets cloudier within hours of water change, he starts only hovering near that wood piece (his fav place) and not venturing out to eat anywhere. (He eats stuff off the wood and seems fine that way.)
Any help? I am ready to toss it and try a manzanita stump, but don't know where to find one that will fit my 5 gall. tank.

As bridesmaids at a wedding party, they need to be beautiful but cannot be prettier than bride. For them, pink and multicolor dresses would be a good choice. Simple design with fresh color can brings a romantic feeling to a wedding party at first sight, especially with the chiffon fabric, which is soft and lightsome, can help create a goddess feeling as well.

White House Caps String of Internships for Selak
Dawn Selak, SOC/BA '10, had a busy college career. While pursuing a Public Communication major and Political Science/International Studies minor, she held internships with the Office of Congressman Charlie Wilson (OH-06), Democratic National Committee, Berenson Communications, the Ohio Democratic Party and the U.S. Justice Department. She also found time to study aboard in Rome, Italy, and was a member of on the AU Club Gymnastics team throughout college.
She capped off her time at AU working in the White House as an Intern to Senior Advisor David Axelrod and a Press Intern. She also excelled in her studies, and was one of a team of students awarded Best Undergraduate Research Paper at the 2010 Public Communication Division Awards. We asked Selak a few questions about her internship, and what she's off to now that she's got her degree.
Q: How did you land such a sought-after position as an undergraduate?
A: I think it was a lot of hard work and a lot of luck. I've had several other internships that prepared me for my internship at the White House, but I still didn't expect that to be offered the internship. To this day, I am just thrilled that I was fortunate enough to have been a White House intern.
Q: What is an average day like?
A: An average day is very hectic, but fun at the same time. I got into the office around 7:30 every morning to pull clips and I would spend the rest of my day performing a variety of tasks, including directing reporters' phone calls, organizing interview requests and helping with press events.
Q: How did SOC help to prepare you for your duties?
A: My SOC classes taught me the basics that I needed to know for my internship. Many of my classes included discussions about the relationship between reporters and public relations professionals, which was very important to understand.
Q: What have you learned on the job?
A: During my internship, I got to see how the White House prepared for the State of the Union address, the passage of healthcare reform and the nomination of a Supreme Court justice. All of those provided me with the unique experience of witnessing various events that are an important part of any presidency and seeing how the Press Office dealt with them. The most important thing I learned during my internship was how to work in an incredibly fast-paced environment. There were often many things going on at once, and being able to juggle several different tasks simultaneously was crucial.
Q: Please share a few of your most exciting/funny/rewarding moments at the White House.
A: Volunteering at the Easter Egg Roll was exciting and rewarding at the same time. It was fascinating to see how the largest annual public event at the White House works from behind the scenes, and it was great to see all of the children and their parents having fun.
Q: How did you juggle a 50-hour work week with your school work?
A: Generally, I tried to finish my homework on the weekends so I could come home from work during the week and relax, instead of having to do homework, but that didn't always work. Mostly, I just tried to work ahead on my school work, so I was never panicking at the last minute about an assignment.
Q: What led you to go into Public Communication?
A: I first became interested in journalism in high school, where I wrote stories about a variety of topics and was the News Editor for two years. When I got to college, I decided that, while I was really interested in communications, I would rather pursue a career in Public Communication, and specifically in Political Communication.
Q: What's next for you?
A: Right now, I'm working as the Executive Assistant to the Coordinated Campaign for the Ohio Democratic Party. I'm originally from Ohio, so after graduation, I decided that I wanted to come home and help keep Ohio blue.

Babes of the BNP
By Gavin Haynes
You no longer need to be a hatchet-faced National Front refugee to join the whites-only club. The fascist menace no longer wears jackboots. It no longer flags down the number 25 bus with a hearty "Sieg Heil". Nope, ours is a new, gentler, more airbrushed age. Feminism's here, so now girls can dig race hate too. As the BNP's attempts to reposition itself as a mainstream party have advanced its perimeter far beyond the usual crewcuts-n-tats brigade, we spoke to three of the more acceptable new faces of the unacceptable. What a bunch of hotties! Phwoar! Makes you aroused to be British.
Rebecca Edwards
Vice: How old are you?
Rebecca: 23.
What do you do for a living?
I'm a full-time mum.
What first attracted you to the BNP?
My husband. He's been in the army for twelve years, and when I met him four years ago, he actually told me about the BNP and what they were doing. And from then on, I started to support them.
Are most of your friends BNP?
Yeah. Not particularly the people in our area, but our friends are.
When people say the BNP is a fascist party, what do you think?
Fascist – I don't understand that word.
Think of Nazi Germany, or 1930s Italy.
I can't even remember when that happened really, but I'm against them anyway.
You're against who?
The Germans. I know that sounds evil... I was brought up that way.
But not the Nazis?
No, I don't agree with that at all.
What's the best thing about living in Britain today?
I hate Britain, and I want to move to Spain in the next couple of years, 'cos our country's not England anymore. It's very rare for English people to live here anymore. When I went to Lanzarote, I felt more English there than I do here, and that's no exaggeration.
But won't you then be an immigrant too?
Yeah but the answer to that is I would go over to their country and respect their country. I wouldn't go over there and try and do suicidal bombs [sic]. The immigrants that come over to this country should be making this a good country and proud of it and helping this country, but most of them don't.
What do you think symbolises Britain best?
Well, I used to know Britain as strong, and over the past couple of years, I don't know if I've grown up, but I've seen it going soft. The memory I have is the war, and how we fighted [sic] all the people in WWI and WWII, and it makes me proud to be British.
Fish or chips?
Alan Carr or Jimmy Carr?
David Mellor or David Beckham?
Jesus Jones or Jesus Christ?
Jesus Christ.
Hieronymus Bosch or a Bosch electric sander?
I don't know them, I'll just put the second one.
Plato or Playdough?
Towel or rag?
Morrissey or Eric Clapton?
Nick Nolte or Nick Griffin?
Nick Griffin.
In terms of the BNP's repatriation policy on immigration, if you had to choose, who would you repatriate first, Dizzee Rascal or Tinchy Stryder?
The second one, because I've never heard of him and I like Dizzee Rascal.
Which do you dislike more: Muslims or Jews?
Do you think Nick Griffin is actually gay, or is that just a vicious rumour?
No. I think it's a vicious rumour.
Have you seen him in the flesh? He's quite mincey.
I've only seen him on the news. I really like him.
Do you think the anti-BNP movements are too overtly black?
Not really.
As a hypothetical solution to the immigration problem, what about dividing Britain down the middle, and using the left half for immigrants, and the right half for everyone else.
Sorry, I don't get that. Am I'm being really thick? No. I don't think so.
What if immigrants could prove their usefulness – shouldn't they then be allowed to stay? For instance, if they began life here with a six-month period of forced labour? Perhaps spent making shoes for the rest of the population in a giant shoe factory in the East Midlands?
No. They shouldn't come to Britain at all in the first place.
What about people who've grown up in Britain from a very young age, but aren't, as the BNP would term it, "ethnically British"? When you repatriated them, don't you think the BNP should first give them intensive lessons in speaking, for example, the Ghanaian language, and learning the skills of an agriculturally-based society?
No. I don't think so. Just send them back. I know that sounds really evil...
OK, what if Ghana, or wherever, decrees that these immigrants are now Britain's responsibilty – that they no longer have the right to live in Ghana. Do you think war with Ghana would be justified to force the issue, or would you simply propose a system of gradually-raised trade sanctions, possibly with the aid of a UN mandate?
I wouldn't do the war, 'cos I'm against war. Er, the other one...
Carol Thatcher – hero or villain?
Al Jolson – hero or villain?
I don't know who he is. Um, hero.
Mother Theresa – hero or villain.
Hitler – hero or villian?
Ant & Dec – heroes or villains?
Finally, has anything amusing ever happened to you in connection with spoons?
Spoons? No. I don't follow.

Home invasion suspect served fugitive warrant
A 23-year-old from Henderson, with an outstanding robbery charge in New York, is in jail with $100,000 bond after he was shot during an attempted robbery at a Vance County home Monday.
Gregory Julian Johnson, of 812 State St., was charged with felony breaking and entering, attempted robbery with a dangerous weapon, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
The state of New York also had an outstanding parole violation for a robbery and Vance County deputies served a fugitive warrant on Johnson for that offense as well.
He is being held with no bond on the fugitive charge pending an extradition hearing.
Deputies also arrested Michael Stroman, 32, of 604 McBorn St., Henderson¬, whom they say fled the scene in a green 1997 Acura TL during the incident. He is facing a charge of felony accessory after the fact to breaking and entering.
Stroman's secured bond was set at $1,000 with a court date June 2.
Deputies responded to a breaking and entering call around 10 a.m. at 2227 Thomas Lane, Henderson, where it was reported to 911 someone had also been shot. Deputies determined that the resident, Jonathan Haith, had shot Johnson in the arm after he had broken into the home.
Maj. Joey Ferguson of the Vance County Sheriff's Office said Haith gave no indication that he knew Johnson. Haith is not facing charges.
Johnson was detained and transferred to a local hospital. Once his injury was stabilized, Johnson was brought back to Vance County Tuesday. His court date is also set for June 2.

Neil McClelland Baird, 68, died Friday, December 30, 2011, on the way to Decatur Memorial Hospital.
Neil was born on May 18, 1943, in Paso Robles CA to John H. Baird and Frances Neumeyer Baird. At the time of his birth, his father was serving in the U.S. Army. Neil attended Decatur Public Schools and graduated from Stephen Decatur High School in 1961.
He then attended Millikin University where he majored in biology and graduated in 1965. It was at Millikin where he met his wife, Karen Lepp, who was also majoring in biology. They were married in Collinsville IL on August 20, 1966. Neil was always proud of his Millikin heritage. Both of his parents were Millikin graduates, and his grandparents on the Baird side attended the Millikin Academy. Neil's graduate training was in the anatomy department of the University of Minnesota medical school. He received his PhD in anatomy in the summer of 1971. In the fall of 1970 he joined Millikin's biology department where he taught for 35 years until his retirement as emeritus faculty in 2005. He was always proud of his many students who went on to work in various medical fields, and he was always pleased to hear later that Millikin had prepared these students very well for their professional schools.
Neil was a member of Central Christian Church where he served as both deacon and elder. He was recently elected deacon emeritus. He also previously served as president of Disciple Men for the Illinois-Wisconsin Region of Disciples of Christ Church. He enjoyed reading current books on religion and was always seeking new insights into his religious faith. Neil was an honorary life member of the Association of College and University Biology Educators, a group he served as both president and program chairman. He also belonged to the National Center for Science Education.
In his retirement Neil joined Golden K Kiwanis and served as president in 2010. He was the current president and newsletter editor of the Westend Neighborhood Association (WENA). Neil was a volunteer at Scovill Zoo and enjoyed taking mobile zoos out into the community. He was a Friend of the Decatur Public Library and always looked forward to Books Between Bites as an audience member and as a presenter. He was also a member of the Decatur Bicycle Club.
Neil loved reading, biking with friends, listening to music, playing the piano, genealogy, hiking in the woods, and spending time with family and friends.
He is survived by his wife Karen; son Matthew Baird of Madison WI; daughter Kathleen Baird of Madison WI; father John H. Baird of Decatur; two brothers, John H. Baird, Jr. (Jan) of Decatur and Carl E. Baird (Nellie) of Arlington WA; and one sister Ruth Ann Francis (Ted) of Burlington IA. He is also survived many beloved cousins, aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his mother. Neil was diagnosed with carcinoid cancer (neuroendocrine tumors) nearly 16 years ago. In 15 of those years he was in excellent health. The family would like to thank Dr. Thomas O'Dorisio of the University of Iowa and Dr. James Wade of Cancer Care for the excellent treatment they gave Neil over the years. In addition the family thanks the 5100 nursing staff at Decatur Memorial Hospital for the excellent care he received during his three week stay in the hospital.
Neil was a loving, gentle, and conscientious man whose energy and enthusiasm for life and learning remained strong throughout his life. He will be missed greatly. Always the anatomy professor, he has donated his body to medical science.

FRANKFORT, Ky. (March. 8, 2013) – Three of Kentucky's local health departments are among the first in the country to earn accreditation status by the Public Health Accreditation Board (PHAB). Northern Kentucky Independent District Health Department, the Franklin County Health Department and the Three Rivers District Health Department join eight other health departments that have been granted 5-year accreditation status from the organization. The Barren River District Health Department is already accreditated
"We are thrilled to learn that three of our local health departments have earned accreditation by the PHAB," said Cabinet for Health and Family Services Secretary Audrey Tayse Haynes. "We commend leadership and staff of Northern Kentucky Independent District, Franklin County and Three Rivers District health departments for their hard work and dedication toward meeting this goal. You are raising the bar for public health standards across the country."
PHAB is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving and protecting the health of the public by advancing the quality and performance of tribal, state, local, and territorial public health departments. In recent years, the organization developed a set of rigorous standards of public health performance and quality and a process to measure public health department performance against those standards.
An accredited public health department must meet a nationally defined set of standards that measures the health department's performance and rewards or recognizes those that meet the standards. Accreditation status demonstrates the ability of that health department to deliver the 10 Essentials Public Health Services and the three core functions of public health: assessment, assurance and policy development. The 10 Essential Services provide a working definition of public health and a guiding framework for the responsibilities of local public health systems. They include:
"At a time when our federal and state resources in public health are increasingly shrinking, and we are being asked to do more with less, these health departments are continuing to move public health forward," said Kentucky Department for Public Health (DPH) Commissioner Stephanie Mayfield, M.D. "We congratulate these three health departments for their leadership, dedication to public health and commitment to improving the health of their communities."
PHAB provides a structured process to identify performance improvement opportunities, develop leadership, improve relationships with the community, foster efficiency and effectiveness and promote continuous quality improvement that can ultimately lead to improved health status for Kentuckians.
DPH plans to apply for public health accreditation in 2014 and has an office dedicated to performance management, quality improvement, and accreditation preparation called the Center for Performance Management (CPM). CPM staff includes a performance improvement manager, local health department accreditation liaison, state accreditation coordinator, quality improvement nurse and technical adviser.
