The Next Big Thing
The Next Big Thing
Laptop … toothbrush … an extra sweater. A single spiral notebook, in which I am now writing. Three shirts … four pairs of socks … . Did I remember my cell phone charger?
I don't go on so many of these tech conference junkets anymore. Maybe two a year? I could probably make it to three if I could ever get the print deadlines to interleave harmoniously with the conference dates, but the calendar never seems to comply. I've been going to big tech exhibitions for many years, though, and over those years, I've seen my share. I'm always amazed at how similar they all look on the surface – the visitors walking around with their badges around their necks, the exhibitors angling to scan the badges, some with little toys or rewards for a visitor who will stand close enough to hear the next talk about the next great technology.
I've stuffed many of these exhibitors' glossy brochures into my laptop case through the years. I sometimes wish I had kept them all just for the anthropological satisfaction of rediscovering the hype and swagger associated with technologies that disappeared from the scene so many years ago.

Students are required to take a total of nine 300- or 400-level course units for a letter grade. (No more than two 300-level courses may be included.) Of the nine required courses, four are core requirements and five are electives. The coursework requirement must be completed within 12 quarters.
Students may take more than nine courses, including beyond quarter twelve, as long as the advisor approves.
Consult course descriptions and schedules in selecting courses.
Core course requirements:
The following are taken during the first year:
NUIN 401-1,2,3 – Fundamentals of Neuroscience ( 4 units total)
A student earning a grade below B- in one of these courses must retake the course,
Elective course requirements:
A biostatistics course is required of all students, to be selected in consultation with student's advising committee and with consideration of prior knowledge and thesis research. At the discretion of the Advising Committee, this requirement may be waived in cases that a student has extensive prior knowledge that is more than sufficient for the anticipated thesis research. Courses in a variety of departments may satisfy that biostatistics requirement:
- PH 302 – Introduction to Biostatistics
- EPI BIO 302 – Introduction to Biostatistics
- EPI BIO 402 – Intermediate Biostatistics
- PH 421 – Intermediate Biostastisitics
- Psych 351 – Advanced Statistics and Experimental Design
- Psych 450 – Fundamentals of Statistics
- Psych 451-1,2 – Statistics in Experimental Design
A number of Statistics Department courses may also satisfy the requirement
Great Experiments Course
- NUIN 411-1 – Great experiments in Molecular and Developmental Neuroscienc
- NUIN 411-2 – Great experiments in Cellular Neurophysiology
- NUIN 411-3 – Great Experiments in Systems and Cognitive Neuroscience
The Great Experiments courses are intended to provide students with a scholarly experiment-based historical perspective of the concentration area. Via an in-depth reading of primary literature, students learn about the major ideas, findings, technical advances, and paradigm shifts that propelled the field forward. Students are expected to take their Great Experiments elective during their 2nd year. Students may take more than one Great Experiments course, but are required to take the one in their chosen area of concentration.
Selecting other electives:
In addition to the Biostatistics and Great Experiments courses, students take three true electives. These may be chosen from among courses offered through NUIN, the department of the student's advisor, DGP, IBiS, or other departments. Electives should be chosen in consultation with the advisor and/or the Student Advising Committee, but most importantly, should be chosen because they are relevant to the student's thesis research.
Note that a grade of B- or above is required for an elective course to count toward the coursework degree requirement; more than one grade of C+ or below may result in dismissal from the program. A student earning a grade below B- in an elective may retake that elective or choose another.
Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) course requirement:
NUIN 490 – Responsible Conduct of Neuroscience Research (0 unit)
Research registration:
During the first 8 quarters in NUIN, students register for NUIN 590 – Research. The number of units is selectable, and must be chosen to bring the total units taken to three or four (the criterion for full time student status). (MSTPs register for NUIN 590 during each of their first eight quarters in the graduate school phase. If graduate courses were taken during any Summer quarters during the M1-2 phase, they count toward the total of eight required 590 quarters.)
Beginning with the 9th quarter of study, students register for TGS 500–Advanced Doctoral Study, and possibly elective courses. (TGS 500 has no units value.) Elective requirements must be completed within twelve quarters.

Corn flakes
Corn flakes
|Place of origin
|United States
|Region or state
|Battle Creek Sanitarium in Michigan
|Dr. John Harvey Kellogg (1894)
W.K. Kellogg
|Main ingredients
|Milled corn, sugar, malt flavoring, high fructose corn syrup
|Cookbook: Corn flakes Media: Corn flakes
Corn flakes are a popular breakfast cereal originally manufactured by Kellogg's through the treatment of corn. A patent for the product was filed on May 31, 1895, and issued on April 14, 1896.[1]
The accidental legacy of corn flakes goes back to the late 19th century, when a team of Seventh-day Adventists began to develop new food to adhere to the vegetarian diet recommended by the church. Members of the group experimented with a number of different grains, including wheat, oats, rice, barley, and corn. In 1894, Dr. John Harvey Kellogg, the superintendent of The Battle Creek Sanitarium in Michigan and an Adventist, used these recipes as part of a strict vegetarian regimen for his patients, which also included no alcohol, tobacco, or caffeine. The diet he imposed consisted entirely of bland foods. A follower of Sylvester Graham, the inventor of graham crackers and graham bread, Kellogg believed that spicy or sweet foods would increase passions.[2]
This idea for corn flakes began by accident when Kellogg and his younger brother, Will Keith Kellogg, left some cooked wheat to sit while they attended to some pressing matters at the sanitarium. When they returned, they found that the wheat had gone stale, but being on a strict budget, they decided to continue to process it by forcing it through rollers, hoping to obtain long sheets of the dough. To their surprise, what they found instead were flakes, which they toasted and served to their patients. This event occurred on August 8, 1894, and a patent for "Flaked Cereals and Process of Preparing Same" was filed on May 31, 1895, and issued on April 14, 1896.[1][3][4]
The flakes of grain, which the Kelloggs called granose, were a very popular food among the patients. The brothers then experimented with other flakes from other grains. In 1906, Will Keith Kellogg, who served as the business manager of the sanitarium, decided to try to mass-market the new food. At his new company, Battle Creek Toasted Corn Flake Company, he added sugar to the flakes to make them more palatable to a mass audience, but this caused a rift between his brother and him. To increase sales, in 1909, he added a special offer, the Funny Jungleland Moving Pictures Booklet, which was made available to anyone who bought two boxes of the cereal. This same premium was offered for 22 years. At the same time, Kellogg also began experimenting with new grain cereals to expand his product line. Rice Krispies, his next great hit, first went on sale in 1928.[5]
There have been many mascots of Kellogg's Cornflakes. The most popular one is a green rooster named Cornelius (Corny) Rooster, which has been the mascot since his debut. In earlier commercials, he had a speaking part and his catch phrase was "Wake up, up, up to Kellogg's Cornflakes!" He was voiced by Dallas McKennon and Andy Devine. Later, he stopped talking and simply crowed.[citation needed] The concept of using a stylized cockerel originated in a suggestion by Kellogg family friend Nansi Richards, a harpist from Wales and a Welsh language proponent. The Welsh word for cockerel is ceiliog (pronounced Keyeleeog or in some dialects keelog).[6][7]
Corn flakes are produced in significant quantities at the Trafford Park factory in Manchester, England, which is also the largest cereal factory in the world.[8]
Cereals derived from corn flakes[edit]
|This section does not cite any references or sources. (December 2013)
A former patient of the Battle Creek Sanitarium named C. W. Post started a rival company, as well as the major other brand of corn flakes in the United States, called Post Toasties. Australia's Sanitarium also manufactures their own brand of corn flakes called Skippy corn flakes. Many generic brands of corn flakes are produced by various manufacturers. In addition, Sainsbury's, Tesco, Morrisons, Asda Co-operative, etc. have brought out similar products based on cornflakes. A variety of corn flakes that is sold in the United Kingdom is one where honey and nuts have been added to the corn flakes – this is known colloquially as "honey nut corn flakes", and as Crunchy Nut under the Kelloggs brand name.
Corn flakes in cooking[edit]
A wide variety of different recipes for dishes involving corn flakes exist. Crushed corn flakes can substitute for bread crumbs.
Honey joys are a popular party snack in Australia; honey joys are made by mixing corn flakes with honey, butter and sugar and baking in patty cases, or muffin cups.[9] A variant popular in the UK is chocolate corn flake cakes, made with corn flakes, dark chocolate, golden syrup and butter.[10]
Corn flakes are usually served with milk (cold; sometimes warm or hot). Fruits, such as banana and strawberry, are popular additions. Sugar may be added per one's taste.
Corn flakes are sweetened, flavored with peanut butter and covered in compound chocolate to create the Butterfinger candy bar, among other imitators.[11]

Miss Mootie is now officially an eighth grader. Today was her first day of school and it was bitter sweet. Don't get me wrong I was ready for her to not be "Bored" but I can not believe how fast they are growing up on me.
Bubby went along with us this morning to drop off Mootie and stop by my mom's house. He was wide open with the can we go here and there and buy this and buy that. I had to tell him no I could not afford to buy him anything today. He went on to talk about this new computer he wanted and this game and that game he wanted. I know it is hard for him to understand some things and money is one of those things. I hate to tell him no all the time, but it is not cheap raising two teenagers on your own. We discussed the importance of paying the bills over buying video games. He looked at me and said the most profound thing. He said " Mommy God will take care of us and one day we will have more money, but right now God is helping other people that need help more than us." All I could say was "Your right Bubby", and it made me really thankful. Things could be a lot worse than they are.

What is the weather like in Prescott?
When is the best time of year to visit Prescott?
Summertime in Prescott means beautiful, mildly warm temperatures and fun, fun, fun. Needless to say, the area's best outdoor recreation flourishes in the summer months. Fishing, kayaking, hiking and mountain biking are at their best during those long summer days. Nearly every weekend from June through September, there are festivals and events of all kinds. Courthouse Square and nearby venues are abuzz with art fairs, food and wine festivals, concerts, car shows, air shows and more. And of course, there is the signature event of the summer - nay, the year - Frontier Days, including the World's Oldest Rodeo, which takes place annually spanning the days around July 4th. Enjoy the big Frontier Days parade and myriad events centered around the rodeo.
Visitors can expect average high/low temperatures of 86/49 in June, 89/57 in July, 82/49 in August and 82/49 in September. Summer rains, like the rest of Arizona, is highest in July and August, with 2 - 4 inches of rain each month. In July and August, when the dew point rises, Arizona experiences what are called monsoon rains. Quick, intense thunderstorms contribute to the rapid-shift swings in weather in the summertime, but locals will tell you that the monsoon season is one of their favorite times of year because it brings relief to seasonally high temperatures and makes the landscape incredibly verdant and fragrant.
Autumn in Prescott is one of the locals' favorite times of year because of several family-friendly events and beautiful changing foliage. Don't miss any of the handful of good old-fashioned pumpkin festivals in Chino Valley and nearby Dewey. They have everything you could expect from a pumpkin patch: farm fresh pumpkins grown on-site; farm fresh produce; horse, animal and wildlife presentations; educational presentations; corn maze; hay rides; horseback riding lessons; petting zoo; entertainment and activities; attractions and concessions.
If you have children, take them trick o' treating on Mount Vernon Street in downtown Prescott. Mount Vernon Street is lined with stately and cute-as-a-button Victorian homes that get all decked out for Halloween. Each year, about 5,000 trick o' treaters of all ages descend upon Mt. Vernon and line up at the spookily-transformed Painted Ladies to garner ghoulish goodies and marvel at the lawns-turned-graveyards and creepy decor.
There's grown-up fun in the fall in Prescott, too. After all, amber fall foliage is perfect when paired with a locally-crafted beer. Regional microbreweries headline the annual Old West Oktoberfest, complemented by festive events and areas for whole-family fun. The downtown section of Gurley Street gets closed off so participants can wander the booths, tasting and testing ales, ambers, stouts and lagers.
Average high/low temperatures are just right for all these autumnal activities. October boasts 72/37 degree temperatures, and November turns crisper, averaging 60/27 degrees. Leaves usually begin changing color in late October. The first snowfall of the year usually happens around late October, early November. Be sure to pack comfortable layers that can be added or removed as Mother Nature is likely to change her mind throughout the day.
Prescott is known as Arizona's Christmas City. While Prescott is always a slice of Americana, it becomes even more so in the winter. Think "Bedford Falls" from It's a Wonderful Life. Prescott's trademark white granite Courthouse Square sparkles when blanketed in crisp snow. With gentle snowfall averages of 5 - 6 inches per month in December, January and February, Prescott is an ideal winter playground.
Don't miss wintertime special events like the Acker Musical Showcase (aka Acker Night) in mid-December, when the downtown shops stay open late and visitors can stroll store to store listening to musicians playing inside and chestnuts roasting on the street corner. And you can't beat the annual Dickens of a Christmas, World's Largest Gingerbread Village and, of course, the Courthouse Tree Lighting ceremony or the Christmas Parade.
January and February are a great time to come to Prescott. The crowds are fewer and there are some great lodging deals to be had. Plus, there are plenty of days filled with sunshine and crisp temperatures, an ideal combination for hiking, mountain biking or riding your motorcycle up to Jerome and Sedona.
Visitors can anticipate average high/low temperatures of 55/22 in December, 51/21 in January and 54/24 in February.
Prescott rivals any Arizona city when it comes to spring beauty. Explore Granite Mountain, Thumb Butte or any of the five area lakes and take in the ponderosa pine forests, wildflowers and riparian undergrowth that distinguish the surrounding Prescott National Forest land. Birdwatchers and photographers will love the opportunities to witness extraordinary species of flora and fauna as spring blooms in the high desert. Golfers can hit the links at any one of five area public golf courses and three private golf courses.
Take the opportunity to explore northern Arizona in spring with Prescott as your hub. Take a road trip to the Grand Canyon, Sedona and Jerome, all within a 1 - 3 hour drive each way. Make your way up to Page Springs, nestled between Cottonwood and Sedona along a picturesque section of Oak Creek to visit any one of several wineries and vineyards. Take in the sights, smells and sounds of spring as you taste a locally-grown petite syrah on the shaded banks of Oak Creek.
Visitors will thrive in average spring temperatures of 59/28 in March, 67/34 in April and 75/40 in May. Spring rains are most likely in March (1.75 inches on average) but slow to a drizzle in April and May (less than 1 inch per month.)
Should I rent a car?
That said, you don't have to be in the car for the majority of your visit. There is a ton to do walking around downtown Prescott or in Prescott Valley's Entertainment District. Take a walking tour of historic homes and landmarks, or enjoy shopping and dining within steps of several hotels in town. Choose your hotel thoughtfully if you choose not to rent a car, and be sure to ask if the hotel provides a short-distance shuttle at little to no cost. In short, your best bet is to rent a car right at the airport - be it Prescott or Phoenix - but be prepared to pay extra airport taxes and fees.
As an option, you could take an airport shuttle for approximately $56 round trip, then rent a car in Prescott or take taxi cabs or hotel shuttles once you arrive. Do your homework, ask questions and figure out what will be the most economical and give you the right amount of freedom you're looking for.

A world of experience opens to Governors School students
They'll also leave with sharpened negotiational skills, cultural sensitivity, and a peek at the inside of Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb's locker.
Lehigh's third annual Pennsylvania Governor's School for Global Entrepreneurship is offering outstanding Pennsylvania and international high school students much more inside information than they bargained for, and the students are loving every minute of it.
During their five-week stay in Bethlehem, ending this week, the 50 Governor's School students are getting an intriguing blend of informative classes, time spent at the local businesses they're advising, and trips that combine entertainment with education. These trips have included a Reading Phillies game, tours of the Federal Reserve Bank in Philadelphia and the New York Stock exchange in New York City, and a visit to the Eagles' new training facility in Philadelphia.
Lehigh's program is the only one of the state's eight Governor's Schools that includes students from abroad, offering opportunities for new cultural experiences. After all, what's more American than baseball?
Whitney Hannivig-Jones, a senior from Henley Brook High School in Western Australia, particularly enjoyed watching the Reading Phillies game. "I've never been outside of Australia, so I'd never seen a baseball game before. It was cool," she says.
Soaring with Eagles
At the Eagles Training Facility/NovaCare Complex, the students met with marketing director Leonard Bonacci. "It was one of the most important hours of my life. Bonacci talked about how he was kicked out of college, but he decided to go back and turn his life around--it was really inspiring," says Lilly Deng, a junior from Perkiomen Valley High School in Collegeville, Pa.
"It was great to see a 'normal' day in professional sports," says Greg Blair, a senior from Malvern High School in Malvern, Pa. "Usually when you think of business, you think of companies or corporations—not something you watch on TV every Sunday. It made it more personal."
But it wasn't all business. The group enjoyed a behind-the-scenes tour of the Eagles weight room, cafeteria, and locker room. "The locker room was enormous, and one player had a picture of J. Lo on his locker, and another had a giant shower loofa—it was neat to see," says Serena Stein, a junior from Parkland High School in Allentown, Pa.
"The lockers were 7 or 8 feet tall—everything in the facility, including the chairs, were huge," recalls Marc Kelechava of Allentown Central Catholic High School. "And there were McNabb's and A.J. Feeley's clothes, shoes, and memorabilia sitting right in front of us—it was really exciting."
A global perspective
Of course, it's not all fun and games, either. Students from Pennsylvania and abroad are getting hands-on experience cooperating and bonding with students from different cultural and ethnic backgrounds.
"I'm seeing perceptions of America from international students," says Kelechava, who began to become interested in a career in global business as a result of his first few weeks at Governor's School. "A lot of Americans think people from other countries are jealous of us, but this just isn't true. They're glad they live in their countries."
Kelechava's most lasting memory of the Governor's School will be an impromptu gathering in the residence hall lounge. "Students from Peru, Argentina, and Mexico all played guitar and sang songs for us from their countries," he recalls.
In addition to the trips and the time spent with each other, the students are getting a kick out of the work they're doing with their respective companies. Each student has been assigned to one of 10 organizations, including Lehigh Valley Hospital, Just Born, Michael Dunn Company, Lehigh Valley Chamber Orchestra, and the United Way of the Greater Lehigh Valley. They research the company, review issues and problems, and develop possible solutions.
Clarke Cohen, a senior from Bradford High School in Bradford, Pa., works for Just Born in Easton. "It's great--we get free candy and we get to choose the company's next candy product," he says. The students spend Mondays at their company, talking to the employees and CEOs and offering recommendations.
And the classes at the Governor's School are a hit, too. "In the entrepreneurial exchange class, we get to meet a lot of really interesting and distinguished business people in the area, as well as people who have started business ventures on a global scale," Stein says. "It's great to hear their stories, mistakes and how they overcame them, and their advice for us."
Blair says he has enjoyed the "Win-Win Negotiating" class the best so far. "It offers some extremely useful tips, not only on how to make a business deal, but also how to best behave in family arguments and buy a used car—life skills," he says. "
Although the Governor's School students have the common passion of entrepreneurship running through their veins, they're shooting for very different stars. Hannivig-Jones isn't sure where exactly she'd like to end up, but she's sure she wants to be a lawyer in the United States.
Stein wants to do something that combines business and the environment. Cohen, who at one point wanted to go into emergency medicine, is now interested in doing marketing or PR for a publishing company.
One thing's for sure: The first chapters of many future success stories are being written during these five fascinating weeks at Lehigh this summer.

Cough Medicine and Kids
The Food and Drug Administration plans to meet to discuss the efficacy of cough syrup and cold medications for children. This comes on the heels of a voluntary recall of more than a dozen brands of children's cough and cold medications, including Dimetapp, Robitussin, Tylenol and many others.
The FDA has already ordered a change of label guidelines for the use of such medications on children two or younger. Doctors are pushing for an outright ban, and also for restrictions for children up through age six. No study has been done demonstrating the safety of these medications on children, and quite a few have been done showing that they are no more effective than placebos and that overdosing is a serious problem. Parents, believing cough syrup to be completely mild and harmless, run the risk of giving overdoses to toddlers and very small children.

OFW guide: Financial aid, legal assistance, other PHL govt services await displaced workers
After Taiwan imposed a hiring freeze startingin May due to its row with the Philippines, the estimated 16,000 overseas Filipinos in danger of losing their jobs might be asking, "What job or livelihood prospects await us in the Philippines?"
Taiwan issued a hiring freeze order after the fatal shooting of a Taiwanese fisherman by members of the Philippine Coast Guard on May 9 off a disputed territory in northern Philippines.
To address the various concerns of OFWs returning from Taiwan, the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) has set up a dedicated help desk especially for them at the offices of the Philippine Overseas Employment Agency (POEA) and Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA).
The help desk may also be reached by calling 7221189.
Celso Fernandez, a lawyer for POEA, told GMA News Online the kind of assistance given to OFWs who approach or call the help desk will depend on the nature of their concerns. He said the help desk officer will refer the OFW to any of the following agencies based on his or her assessment of the worker's problems.
Listed below are the agencies that OFWs from Taiwan may go to following their visit to the help desk as well as some of the services they offer:
- legal assistance for OFWs who want to file a case against their recruiters, employers, or principals for legitimate claims, and
- the OFW's registration in the government's database of skilled workers, for possible job referral to government agencies .
- trainings on financial literacy, technological skills and entrepreneurial know-how, and
- job referrals to local or international companies
- opportunity to apply for a P200,000 loan that OFWs can use to establish a small business (small groups of OFWs can apply for a loan up to P1 million)
- 10,000 financial aid or a starter kit worth P7,500 for displaced or distressed workers under the "Balik-Pinas, Balik Hanapbuhay" program, and
- opportunity for an OFW or his legal dependent to avail themselves of a P300,000.00 to P2 million loan under the P2-billion Reintegration Fund for enterprise development in cooperation with the Land Bank of the Philippines and the DOLE-National Reintegration Center for OFWs (NRCO).
Fernandez encouraged OFWs to make the most out of their visits to the help desks by being open about their concerns with the help desk officer who can make the right assessment about the kind of assistance the OFWs need.
The lawyer added that a visit to the help desk may be all it takes for an OFW to realize that he does not need to work abroad again for there are various livelihood opportunities available to him right here in the Philippines. - VVP, GMA News

15 'Lord of the Rings' Facts to Rule Them All
Nicolas Cage in a Lord of the Rings film? It almost happened, if you can believe that. Cage was offered the role of Aragorn in Peter Jackson's trilogy but eventually turned it down.

This is just one of the facts packed into the latest episode of You Think You Know Movies, which travels to Middle-earth for The Lord of the Rings trilogy!
Boldly Go Through This Video Collection of Leonard Nimoy's Career Highlights
The late, great Leonard Nimoy, who died earlier today at the age of 83, will always be Mr. Spock, second-in-command of the USS Enterprise under Captain James T. Kirk. For a long time, Nimoy was not okay with this. And then, over the years, he embraced the character that defined his career and inspired an entire generation of fans (many of whom became scientists, engineers, and astronauts). But Nimoy didn't just sit back and rest on his Vulcan laurels. When he wasn't wearing those pointy ears, Nimoy was acting, directing, writing, singing, and lending his likeness and distinctive voice to commercials and TV specials. He was a real Hollywood renaissance man, dabbling in high art, low art, and everything in-between.

Aug 11 2007
Before we arrived on Wednesday, we'd been away from the farm for several weeks—just long enough for a whole community of spiders to pack their belongings and move from the surrounding pasture right onto our front porch.
I'm scared of spiders, much more than snakes or rodents or wild pigs or laundry. And I mean, the suckers are everywhere.
They're big, nasty dudes, too. But as much as I fear their crunchy, spindly, beady-eyed eight-leggedness, I became a little obsessed with them yesterday. They made my hiney cringe left and right; and I sort of liked it.
As Marlboro Man and the cowboys were busy preg-testing cows in the pens and creating all kinds of interesting arm-up-the-cow-bottom Kodak Picture Moments for me, I was glued to the arachnids instead, trying to see just how close I could get without being eaten alive.
Ewwwwwww. I had a major hiney cringe here. I remember it vividly.
Hiney cringes, remember, are never, ever to be confused with hiney tingles, which are in an entirely different category altogether.
Oh no—they're BREEDING…aaaaaaaaaaagggh! Our front porch is a science fiction horror flick. Not unlike my refrigerator back home.
This mama looked like she was ready to tear me from limb to limb. She didn't want me anywhere near her egg sac.
And I'm not lying when I say my hiney was cringing right off the porch and down the road and across the north pasture while I was snapping this shot.
But then I noticed her hairy legs and suddenly…she didn't seem so tough.
Shave, girlfriend…shave!

Ok, see, quite often, because of the whole time-zone thingy, I get to see your posts last thing at night, if you happen to rise and post early in your morning. Like now. So I'm taking these major-EWW images to bed with me.
Talk about hiney-cringe …
Allison On Saturday, August 11 at 6:19 am
Ewwwwwwww! I had to scroll quickly past the pictures so I could read what you wrote!
A Alabama Grandmother On Saturday, August 11 at 6:24 am
Eeeew, don't like bugs of any sort.
Had to scroll past them also.
okay, so I'm a wienny… Nightmares,,ugh
Dana Evans On Saturday, August 11 at 6:28 am
ugh! I can handle snakes and mice without any problems. But bugs. Especially spiders. Nope. Nope. Nope. Your pictures of them are amazing though. UGH. Hiney-cringe describes it perfectly.
I would much rather see photos of the cow boys with their arms up cow butts!! I guess that would be a hiney-cringe for the cows . ..
Deanna On Saturday, August 11 at 6:31 am
Sorry…this made me spit out my cereal…hope I didn't getcha!
dmartin On Saturday, August 11 at 6:39 am
OMG I detest spiders…..how did you get so close without passing out!?!?! *pleasesaytelephotolenspleasesaytelephotolenspleasesaytelephotolens*
……………my hiney is still bunched up around my shoulders,will be there for quite some time. Why did I actually look at those pics????
Katmayo On Saturday, August 11 at 6:48 am
Your photos show the beauty in the scariest of things. Thanks (?) for sharing.
Steamy Kitchen On Saturday, August 11 at 7:01 am
My question is: zoom lens or macro lens? Cuz I woulda stayed 10 ft away from that monster!
Miz Robyn On Saturday, August 11 at 7:03 am
I'm not a fan of spiders, but I stared at every single one of your pictures. Scary, but so cool!
The rule in my house is that if the spider keeps her web clean, she's allowed to stay. Once she starts letting debris pile up, it's squishville for her!
Carol (ScrapMomOf2) On Saturday, August 11 at 7:03 am
WOW! Amazing photos! It's better seeing them in a photo than in person! I don't think I would have liked that very much!
michelle On Saturday, August 11 at 7:04 am
Ewww! I can't believe I kept scrolling and reading through those spiders. My skin is crawling now. Maybe next time you could forget you take such fantastic pictures and give us a couple of blurry shots instead? =) pretty please?
BethofVirginia On Saturday, August 11 at 7:08 am
Very beautiful, but creepy creatures. I truly think you are a talented photographer.
Assertagirl On Saturday, August 11 at 7:11 am
Hiney cringing my way through my coffee this morning. I am also afraid of spiders, but these photographs are beautiful in a way.
Jayne On Saturday, August 11 at 7:14 am
How Cool! This is why I need a macro lens. What kind of spiders are they? Beautiful shots!
MLH On Saturday, August 11 at 7:24 am
I absolutely love the beauty of their webs. And I would much rather see a "bug eatin' spider" than I would a copperhead or rattlesnake. I get sort of freaked out with snakes.
ballerinamommy On Saturday, August 11 at 7:26 am
The only thing that makes me feel good about spiders is the fact that they eat bugs – namely, annoying bugs like mosquitos and flies.
Great shots, Ree! They would be great to use in a classroom!
SheilaZ On Saturday, August 11 at 7:31 am
Spiders, no problem. However, snakes are another story. I find them really creepy. They are OK as long as I can back away and let them go their own way and I'll go mine. Picking them up or handling them (or even the thought of it) makes me shudder. Must be a result of childhood conditioning. I remember my first encounter with a snake. Preschool age (3 or 4) Turned over a small rock and this little grass snake was coiled up under it. The aggressive little thing lunged forward toward my hand. Scared the crap out of me!
emily michelle On Saturday, August 11 at 7:31 am
Seems that Bekah also had a close encounter of the arachnid kind this week: http://www.eurekablyth.com/?p=476
my comment to her was that I happen to fear and loathe spiders with every fiber of my being, but I'm fairly certain that this spider is of the totally harmless variety, and in fact his kin have provided my siblings with hours of entertainment as they watch them build webs and catch pesky grasshoppers. Though I may have to whip out my camera and get in on the macro spider action
Jenny, who is terrified of spiders On Saturday, August 11 at 7:32 am
Cassey On Saturday, August 11 at 7:38 am
My terdy little brother is the same way with spiders. He absolutely is TERRIFIED of them, but put a deadly snake in front of him and he will be poking and touching that snake for hours at a time. I can handle those creepy and crawly little critters, but the moment that you touch me with one or get it within a touching distance, I will jet from that scene faster than your punks can grab than their next donut! he he
Karen On Saturday, August 11 at 7:39 am
I looove the pics! I got a shot of a web on my porch swing a few weeks ago.. but the spidey was long gone in our Texas heat! I wish I had a zoom that good! Awesome stuff!
TLCcamera On Saturday, August 11 at 7:42 am
What kind of spider is this?
Meanwhile, the Macro World is really interesting, as these detailed shots show.
Robin (PENSIEVE) On Saturday, August 11 at 7:43 am
Absolutely.Positively.SPECTACULAR PICTURES!
I was absolutely mesmerized by spiders when we were at the beach (Kiawah Island, south of HHI…inland is FULL of all kinds of creatures). I COULD NOT get decent pictures…then again, I've got a point and shoot and limited camera skills :/.
You have a photography workshop–I'll be the first in line :).
connie in nm On Saturday, August 11 at 7:43 am
I wouldn't say I LIKE spiders, but they are small and I can smash them, squish them.
Just PLEASE promise me you will never, ever post photos of snakes! Those you cannot smash and screaming and running is not enough.
Barb On Saturday, August 11 at 7:46 am
Woman, you never fail to make me laugh. I was reading though, amazed (as always) at your wonderful pictures but wondering, where is she going to pull a laugh from with these wicked creatures….then *BAM*, you do. LMAO You are soooo good.
Ree, thanks for the laughs. You'll never know how good they are for my soul.
Melissa R. Garrett On Saturday, August 11 at 7:50 am
Beth On Saturday, August 11 at 7:50 am
Ree, these shots are among your best! Seriously. The lighting, depth of field, and composition (and of course, creepy subject matter!) are so intriguing. The stare-down photos are arresting, but my fave is the third because of the interplay of lights and darks. I think you're on to something in the treatment of spider-phobia: a gal who is overdue for a waxing or shave is not really so intimidating!
Beth On Saturday, August 11 at 7:53 am
Let the echo what Robin (Pensieve) said… if you were to have a photo workshop/Photoshop tutorial I'd pay $$.
Kris On Saturday, August 11 at 7:54 am
Eww in a cool sorta way. Hope they don't carry you off while you're sleeping…
Erin Racowski On Saturday, August 11 at 8:01 am
Add me to the list of spider haters (yet my yard is full of banana spiders:::shudder:::.
Thanks, now I itch all over!
avra On Saturday, August 11 at 8:01 am
Not hiney cringe for me.More like the hair on the back of my neck standing up leaving me in a cold shudder.And I feel like my head expands…*shudder*
Karen On Saturday, August 11 at 8:01 am
WHOAA That will wake up a blog reader in the morning. The pictures are awesome though and so detailed the spiders almost look pretty. They are big little suckers aren't they? (Big little suckers…yeah thats a oxymoron) So how long to you spray them with bug spray? hehehe
Lisa in MI On Saturday, August 11 at 8:01 am
The biggest "hiney buncher" adjective for me?
CRUNCHY!! (Should never be used to describe a spider!!!!!)
Robin M On Saturday, August 11 at 8:01 am
Fabulous, Ree! You just keep getting better.
teryn On Saturday, August 11 at 8:05 am
Shiver. We used to have those same spiders all over our house in the country in the summertime. Great photos — I'm covered in goosebumps.
Kristi On Saturday, August 11 at 8:07 am
Ew! What a breath-stealing thing to wake up to! Thanks Ree!….no problem with wanting to go back to sleep this morning…!
ChrissyH On Saturday, August 11 at 8:16 am
Um, I couldn't read this post. The spiders were in the way. Why and how and why did you get in so close? My hairs are on end over here! I'm sure they're great shots, but I couldn't tell through my squinty eyes. Eek.
Annie On Saturday, August 11 at 8:22 am
Major speed scrolling here.
I almost had a coronary when I opened your page this morning!!
What were you THINKING!!??!!
Carolyn On Saturday, August 11 at 8:26 am
I discovered your blog several months ago. I am so addicted to it! You live the life I only dream of! Except the spiders!!!!
I live in a major city, San Francisco, and I could only hope to move out into the country some day, Thank you so much for giving me something I enjoy so much on a daily basis
I have one question? What homeschool curriculum do you use? This is my second year homeschooling.
Kim Langston On Saturday, August 11 at 8:26 am
As a new stalker of your blog and a resident on a ranch, I found it curious that you never much mentioned all the pests that occur on a daily basis. Yes those spiders are gross. I know, I see them on a daily basis in triplicate (if not more). As well as snakes, mice, skunks, wild hogs, etc. The spiders don't bother me as much as the snakes. How do you deal with snakes when you live in the country? This I can't figure out.
Lanan On Saturday, August 11 at 8:26 am
We had one hanging around our house too. ugghh.
Them Country Folk On Saturday, August 11 at 8:28 am
Hair on the back of my neck too!
Patti On Saturday, August 11 at 8:32 am
Amazing photos! Beautiful in their own way. I did a little googling and discovered that what you probably have there are "argiope aurantia," aka common black and yellow garden spider, writing spider or orb weaver.
Remudamom On Saturday, August 11 at 8:32 am
Well shoot, we love theses things. Garden spiders I think. Very friendly for arachnids, we feed ours. Ummm, they'll let you pet their backs.
kim-d On Saturday, August 11 at 8:37 am
Is anybody other than me aged enough to remember the song "I Don't Like Spiders and Snakes"? Yeah, still true. However, those ARE cool pictures, and I will admit that, in this case, hairy legs are the great equalizer. Who knew…
Sheri On Saturday, August 11 at 8:40 am
sweet Jesus- now I've got a hiney cringe. Spiders creep me out seriously but you've sure taken some pictures that tame the wild beast. When I was a kid, we used to have these HUGE barn spiders where our wood pile was under the barn. It was a horror show under there and I used to be so afraid one would drop on my head while I was getting wood. I was a vert fast wood getter. lol
Jenni in KS On Saturday, August 11 at 8:43 am
I think spiders are fascinating. I won't let my kids kill them unless they're brown recluses or black widows because they eat other bugs. We have a LOT of bugs. I wish they could control the fly problem a little better. They are such beautiful (if in a creepy way) creatures and they spin the most amazing webs. We have a lot of the type pictured here around our house. I've looked it up before and I was going to say I think it's some kind of argiope, but it looks like someone else already found what type it is. I'm going to check out that link now and read more. Thanks for the close ups! Oh, and you did make this a science lesson, right?
carla On Saturday, August 11 at 8:45 am
I must be a weirdo, but I LOVE garden spiders. They are harmless, build beautiful webs and catch all the bad, bitting sort of buggies. Down here we call them zipper spiders because of the funny zipper part of their web. All the big ones you see are females. If you ever see a tiny little spider on the edge of one of the webs, that's the male.
We had one make a web near a kitchen window (smart girl, light draws bugs at night). My daughter took to finding the spider grasshoppers during the day and would feed the her. Fascinating stuff really.
Now, me and June bugs, they are a whole different story. I like spiders, afraid of June bugs. Go figure??
Nan On Saturday, August 11 at 8:50 am
ROFL! Love the last line! :^) Okay and I SO hate spiders in real life but I too will defy all my fears to take a picture of one. Stinky thing is that I don't have quite as strong of a lens as yours. And I LOVE seeing pictures of them. The minute I feel even a piece of loose thread on my clothing chafe against my skin I'm all caught up in a hundred shutters and busy doing the spider dance…. which isn't anywhere near as graceful as it sounds.
Last year my boys wanted to study spiders in depth so I had to spend about 3 1/2 weeks obsessing about them with my boys.
alicorn_28 On Saturday, August 11 at 8:52 am
Nice pictures! I am with the people that can't stand snakes, yuck. Nobody has said anything about bats, so I'll throw out the fact that I had a bat fly into my house last night. I think bats are cool, so I had to protect it from my cat.
DeeDee On Saturday, August 11 at 8:58 am
Amazing! I don't have a problem with spiders. Usually I find them absolutely fascinating.
The only time they bother me is when I suddenly find them in my personal space – and the bigger the spider, the wider my personal space!
tess in the 'burbs On Saturday, August 11 at 9:05 am
Oh we love those Orb spiders! they will tear down the web every morning and rebuild. EVERY DAY! it's a wonderful home school science lesson…just sit back and let the spider teach the kiddos.
however the breeding is so not cool. You wouldn't want all those spiders on your porch!!
Enjoy…we had Orb spiders for two years, then they went away and we were sad
Audra On Saturday, August 11 at 9:06 am
Oh my sweet corn, that is not what I needed to see first thing this morning. Talk about hiney cringes I think mine just packed up and ran for the hills. Yet strangely I couldn't look away.
AmyM On Saturday, August 11 at 9:08 am
Ok, you need to warn unsuspecting people who may or may not be severely afraid of spiders. If anyone needs me, I'll be hiding in the corner, sucking my thumb, holding a can of Raid.
Dee On Saturday, August 11 at 9:08 am
Holy Arachnophobia woman…what are ya thinkin'!!! No kidding on the hiney cringe…major one!!
Forget shaving her legs!…use Nair…then maybe she will disappear totally!
Greenwoman On Saturday, August 11 at 9:19 am
I love these spiders, though the species obviously looks different in your neck of the woods, than it does in mine. Here in Maine, those type of spiders have a globe shaped abdomen instead of the flat'ish elongated appearance and they have bright yellow spots where yours have pale yellow and the patterns of white, yellow and black are a bit different.
Same web pattern and egg sack though….they are very accommodating spiders. Most spiders run off or become combative about photographs, but not this species. They just look at you. *smiles*
Ellen On Saturday, August 11 at 9:24 am
You give a whole new meaning to "up close and personal."
Jacqui On Saturday, August 11 at 9:26 am
These are yellow garden spiders. There is some interesting information on Wikipedia about them. We have them all over our ranch also and have had a tough time getting rid of them.
amy p On Saturday, August 11 at 9:35 am
Thanks for scaring the be-Jesus out of me this morning!! I can't even say the word! Boy there are nasty little critters…
Cakehead On Saturday, August 11 at 9:35 am
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack! Those may make your hiney tingle, but they make my brain tingle in a not so pleasant way. Nasty nasty nasty, even though your photography is fabulous. I just can't get over the ick factor. I've tried to look at them as just another bug, but I can't. I just can't. No way.
Yup, I'm a total girlie girl when it comes to arachnids of any sort.
Apples on a Stick On Saturday, August 11 at 9:38 am
some warning next time 'k? Not images I want popping into my feed reader at 7am! YUCKY YUCKY YUCKY, I hope you killed every last one!
Dana In RI On Saturday, August 11 at 9:38 am
I don't mind spiders as a general rule and will try to put them outside if I find them inside.
Unless they are kind of big and scary. Then I'm not always so kind. These pictures are amazing and definitely gave me a shiver!

When Bossy lived on a farm in Virginia the spiders moved indoors the first chilly day. They slipped right under her poorly insulated doors and windows, and they came by the thousands.
One time Bossy propped one of those black plastic Halloween Spider Rings next to one of her real live spiders so she could snap a photo for her apartment-dwelling friends back home.
The Virginia spiders were twice the size of the Halloween Rings and more than a thousand times scarier.

These are so gorgeous. My darlin' husband got me a new camera for my birthday, and I tried to get some shots of the spiders in our yard, but I don't have that fancy lens. I am in awe of your photography, and the fact that you're self-taught gives me hope that someday I'll figure out how to use this dang thing!
Oh, and I can only say THANK YOU for not showing us the arm up the cow butt shots!
Susan On Saturday, August 11 at 9:42 am
And I thought we had some nasty liking spiders….ewwww!! I can't believe how much detail you caught in these pictures! amazing….but gross!!
Katie On Saturday, August 11 at 9:42 am
Okay, I can agree the pictures are gorgeous, even though I feel a scream just barely contained. I can agree the pictures are amazingly well taken. Ree, they are truly amazing, and I am so impressed you got close enough to take any pictures, regardless of if you used a telephoto lens or not. However, I cannot agree with anyone reacting so calmly to the spiders… I read the article on wikipedia that someone posted, and that egg sac can contain up to 1,000 spiders!!! That officially makes it so far past creepy and hiney cringing, I can't even being to cope. The mental image of 1,000 baby spiders parading out of the egg sac… oh, help.
Susan On Saturday, August 11 at 9:43 am
that is suppose to read…nasty looking (not liking)…opps

Minnesota Girl On Saturday, August 11 at 9:52 am
The first pic reminded me of Charlotte's Web. I could almost imagine a message written in there somewhere. The spiders are creepy but these photos are "Some Pics", as Charlotte might have written.
Miss Pink Ponsonby On Saturday, August 11 at 9:57 am
Spiders:We hatesesss them, yes, Precious! Anyway, I'm confused about something: Can you please clarify the difference between the ranch, the farm, and home? I have them mixed up. I thought the farm was your in-laws place but sometimes you refer to it as home?
coffeypot On Saturday, August 11 at 9:57 am
The spiders are farm workers, too. Can you imagine how many insects you would have INSIDE your house if it wasn't for the ugly, disgusting spiders? They are doing you a favor that you do not appreciate. As for me, I would stomp the crap out of them and use Raid in the house.
Carrie On Saturday, August 11 at 10:01 am
Did you have to do the spiders? Now I'm going to itch all day, because I had to look at them.
Swamp Witch On Saturday, August 11 at 10:04 am
At least you didn't find any Black Widow Spiders. Bwahawhahwhawh !
Cate On Saturday, August 11 at 10:20 am
I don't mind snakes. I can't stand spiders. I'm also an avid mountain biker. When I lived in your part of the world, I learned very quickly to never be first on a bike trail. Eeeeek! Spiders in the bike helmet is never a good thing.
Hulda On Saturday, August 11 at 10:39 am
Cool pictures, creepy, but cool!
Taste Like Crazy On Saturday, August 11 at 10:40 am
This is going to sound absolutely stupid, but thanks for posting those pictures.
They look like the "garden spiders" that we had in Arkansas when I was little.
Seeing these pictures reminds me of humid summer days playing outside.
Thanks again.
Crystal On Saturday, August 11 at 10:53 am
Oh Gee THANKS! I just threw up a little looking at those pictures! Eeegad woman! What are you thinking getting that close to that creature and then putting the pictures on your blog (which I cannot resist reading!)
Grace On Saturday, August 11 at 10:54 am
UGHHH! wanted to walk away but I couldn't….now I fully understand when you talk about hiney cringes…shaking my head to shake it off!
Gaviota_mx On Saturday, August 11 at 10:56 am
GREAT photos!
I love spiders, the ones that make my hiney cringe are worms. I am sure you have plenty of those too.
Your last observation in the post, priceless!
P.S. I didn't know what hiney meant and I looked it up. Only found it in the Urban dictionary, I had to laugh
Rachel On Saturday, August 11 at 11:03 am
I couldn't even look at those photos. I had to squeeze my eyes shut past each picture to just read the in-between stuff!
catherine Lucas On Saturday, August 11 at 11:11 am
freeky freeky… Keep them away from me… I would do anything for a good photograph, but not for a spider photograph. I would have my personal Mr Wonderful remove them before I set foot on that porch…
What am I going to do when we move from UK to New Mexico?
Dang it, I hate scorpions too…
Magda (fan from Poland) On Saturday, August 11 at 11:13 am
I don't mind spiders, but I hate worms and larvae (like those you find in cauliflower or broccoli, ugh!), and I can't even THINK about being in the same space with a mouse. Horrid!
The pictures are fascinating and visually gorgeous!
Heather in Boise On Saturday, August 11 at 11:18 am
Great pictures! What kind of lens did you use to take those? I'd love more info on the technical side of your photography-camera settings, lens, etc.
Kaytabug On Saturday, August 11 at 11:20 am
ewww I am afraid of spiders, they make my hiney cringe too. I almost skipped this post…then I realized that you have a ginormous zoom lens and then I was alright. But I am glad I don't have to be around them in real life like you do right now. Good luck with that!!
Dot On Saturday, August 11 at 11:25 am
We have tons of those spiders in my yard here in TX. I even had to rescue a baby woodpecker from on of their spider webs. They are huge! But so too are the grasshoppers that get caught in the webs.
Me Too On Saturday, August 11 at 11:59 am
Magda you are the first person to share my phobia. Snakes, spiders, bats, rodents? No problem.
Caterpillars? AAAAAAAAAAAA
Rhoda On Saturday, August 11 at 12:00 pm
Another spider hater here. So, I'm wondering if you killed all of them by now & got rid of them on the porch…after you took their pics, of course. I certainly would have! No spider will hang out in my territory very long, no sireeeee. I always laugh when you talk about your hiney tingles.

There are all kinds of hiney cringes going on here, in all area of my netherregions, and none of it is good! I turn in to a little girl whenever spiders are involved…well, maybe that's not an accurate description because my little girl is not afraid of spiders, and calls them all "my friend."

Eeeeewwwwwww. Nasty pictures, nasty! Eeeeewwww! I HATE it when people post spider pics on their blogs- even very well-photographed pictures. Yucky!!!!! I refuse to look! If you squint your eyes tight, and just read the words, it isn't so bad.
LB, the lady, not the horse.
Cindy Z On Saturday, August 11 at 12:29 pm
Great pictures! As long as they are on the outside I am fine with them
sweettooth On Saturday, August 11 at 1:00 pm
This summer our yard has been devoid of the usual large, colorful garden spiders. Perhaps due to lack of rain. When I see these huge spiders, I try to think about all the bugs they eat. Anyway, they are best viewed from a distance.
kris On Saturday, August 11 at 1:11 pm
Um, me thinks you really do live in Purgatory! SO nasty!
campgirl On Saturday, August 11 at 1:28 pm
I have a fear of spiders and my stomch lurched when your pictures came up. I think I'm going to pop a few Tums and go lie down.
Miss Parker On Saturday, August 11 at 1:43 pm
Those are fantastic photos. Getting that close to a spider would have absolutely horrified me. They scare me to death.
My brother had a tarantula when we were growing up – named Rosie, no less – and he took every available chance to throw her on me when I was least expecting it. I think that's the root of my problem.
Joan Sillito On Saturday, August 11 at 2:11 pm
I love your spider pictures. Waaaay better than arm-up-the-butt pictures of cows!! Those pictures are G-R-O-S-S. I can't stand to look at them. I whiz by all the pics of calf nuts too…way too gross for me.
Spiders are pretty. Although, I used to think spiders were really creepy but my homeschooling punks educated me!
Tonya On Saturday, August 11 at 2:24 pm
You should look at whatsthatbug.com They would love to have your pictures. Plus, helps you identify bugs. As a homeschool mom, a wonderful site!

Region 10: the Pacific Northwest
Serving the people of Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, Washington and Native Tribes
Contact Us
All EPA
Region 10
This Announcement is Closed as of January 29, 2010.
On this Page:
Work plan proposals should be postmarked or emailed to Project Officers no later than January 29, 2010.
Awards will be issued no later than September 30, 2010.
Top of page
Uses and Restrictions: Water Pollution Control grants are intended to provide continuing support for the prevention and abatement of surface and ground water pollution from point and nonpoint sources. Types of water quality management program activities funded include water quality planning and standards development; monitoring and assessments; inspections and enforcement; permitting; training; advice and assistance to local agencies; and public information. Funds cannot be used for the construction, operation, or maintenance of wastewater treatment plants or drinking water systems, including the required water quality monitoring or sampling activities for facility permit compliance purposes; nor can they be used for costs financed by other federal grants.
In general, CWA Section 106 cannot fund activities outside of the reservation, unless the activity pertains to reservation water resources (for example, water quality monitoring where grant funds may be used to study water quality issues in watersheds outside the Reservation if studying the source and its impacts pertains to management of the waters within the Reservation, and this relationship is explained in the scope of work). If these funds are being used for such purposes beyond the reservation boundaries, the Tribe should obtain the necessary access agreement or permission to conduct the activity from the appropriate jurisdiction.
Region 10 anticipates awarding approximately $3.4 to $3.6 million to up to thirty-eight Tribal governments that are eligible for this program. EPA provides for up to 95% of the approved work plan costs for eligible Tribal governments, while there is a 5% Tribal match. The Regional Administrator may increase the maximum federal share if the Tribal government can demonstrate in writing to the satisfaction of the Regional Administrator that fulfilling the 5% match requirement would impose undue financial hardship. The financial assistance agreements in Region 10 have ranged from $50,000 to $180,000 on an annual basis. Region 10 provides annual funding "targets" for eligible Tribal governments.
NOTE: For other Tribal governments interested in becoming eligible for the CWA Section 106 "Treatment in a manner similar to a state" application process, please go to the contact information section at the end of this document.
Performance Partnership Grants (66.605): CWA Section 106 grants are eligible for inclusion in Performance Partnership Grants (PPGs). PPGs combine funds from 2 or more environmental program grants listed in 40 CFR Part 35 into a single grant with a single budget. Currently, 32 (of 38) eligible Tribal grantees have PPGs, combining CWA Section 106 with the Indian General Assistance Program (GAP). Other program grants may also be a part of a PPG (for example, CWA 319, wetlands, pesticides, and brownfields). The intent of PPGs is to provide for greater flexibility in program areas while achieving administrative savings. PPG information can be found at 40 CFR Part 35 (January 16, 2001 Federal Register Notice), or at: http://www.epa.gov/water/ppg/ppgguide.html
Application Dates: Work plan proposals should be postmarked or emailed to Project Officers no later than January 29, 2010. An email/attachment or electronic submittal is acceptable. EPA will review the draft proposals and work with grantees to prepare the final application packages (whether a categorical CWA 106 award or as a part of a PPG).
Awards: EPA Region 10 will work to ensure that these grants can be awarded by September 30, 2010.
Program work plans should be postmarked or emailed on or before January 29, 2010 to the EPA Project Officer. An electronic copy should also be sent to:

New quarterback Deuce Wallace leads Sevier County to 35-0 win
There was a new quarterback, new coach and new defense on the field for Sevier County.
No bother. Friday still brought a familiar result for the Smoky Bears: a 35-0 thrashing of Bearden.
"We were all excited to see Deuce (Wallace) at quarterback," said receiver Devante Matthews. "That's the big talk around Sevier County. Is Deuce going to make Sevier County the same team they've always (been)? Deuce came out and played a heck of a game tonight."
Matthews caught a touchdown pass from Wallace, one of four the junior fired while going 18 of 27 for 222 yards and an interception in his Tennessee high school debut on Bill Young Field. Seven different receivers caught passes for Sevier County (1-0). Dalton Ford, Reece Layman and Jake Grosser added touchdown strikes, none for less than 16 yards.
J.D. Griffin had the Bears' other score, busting through the line for 30 yards on a fourth-down run. Zach Sauls had 56 yards on the ground while Layman, Matthews and Ford passed the 50-yard mark in receiving yards.
The offense didn't quite produce the dazzling 62 points it put on the Bulldogs in this game a year ago but it was just as mesmerizing in its efficiency.
"I trust all my receivers," Wallace said. "I don't think any receiver is any better than the other one. We're 10 receivers deep it seems like."
A defense that struggled at times last year came out strong in a new 3-4 look and produced a shutout. Bearden's best shot to get on the board came on the team's first drive of the night when the Bulldogs (0-1) drove 72 yards to the Sevier County 8-yard line. But Hunter Miniard picked off a pass from Cameron Jones and Bearden wouldn't truly threaten again. Austin Rice added another interception late in the first half.
"I'm so proud of our defense," said Bears coach Tony Linginfelter after his first game in charge. "We've worked so hard to get better on defense and I feel like we are getting better."
Wallace looked plenty comfortable in the Bears' up-tempo offense, slinging screen passes left and right in rapid succession to keep the chains moving. He also found his way downfield with a pair of deep balls that Layman and Matthews adjusted to and reeled in despite tight coverage for scores of 38 and 30 yards.
"I told Deuce, 'Just throw it. Don't underthrow me. I'll go get it,' " Matthews said. "That's what Deuce did. Deuce is really accurate."
Wallace said those connections and the familiar receiving depth Sevier County showed on Friday are the result of hours of extra work the players have put in this summer. Wallace and his receivers get together on Sundays after church and toss the ball around, helping the transfer from Louisiana pick up the offense.
The quarterback and his targets now get another two weeks to add to that mastery before the Bears open their home schedule against Morristown East on Sept. 5.
"The offense here, I love it," Wallace said. "It's fast-paced. We sling the ball. It's just fun."

Move Like This, the new record from The Cars (not the New Cars, but the Famous Original Cars), joins Raphael Saadiq's?Stone Rollin' and Posted artist Christina Perri's lovestrong on record store shelves today. The band is a bit darker without bassist and co-lead singer Benjamin Orr, who died of pancreatic cancer in 2000, but otherwise they pretty much sound like the Cars circa their multi-platinum heyday. However, critics seem to be divided as to whether that's enough.?

Thanks for this tut. Very helpful. Upgrading to .22 lets me connect to my USB drive.
Is anyone seeing the connection drop regularly? Tit starts great around 400 or 500kbps and then just hangs. I'm connecting without passwords using passive mode. I've never had connection issues with my wii and my mac is pretty solid too.

Could not connect to server! What I'm using is FileZilla_3.5.3_win32, with FTPii 22, and of course HBC. Any Idea what I'm doing wrong?
filzilla.jpg HBC.jpg version.jpg
Ultimately what i'm trying to do is get my Wii setup to run off my HDD so I can lock away my Disks. I have four boys who love to rough house and ruin things. Also they love the emulator aspect of Snes9x GX, so i'm trying to get the system setup now to handle the file transfers of the ROMS needed to use the emulator without them having to pull out the SD card/HDD each time.
Edit-I finally abandoned this guide and did some poking around on google. I've found WiiXplorer works 100%. I guess FTPii is old and out of date!

Setting less ambitious academic achievement goals for black and Hispanic students in Florida is discriminatory, according to a civil rights complaint filed Friday with the U.S. Department of Justice.
The complaint filed by the Southern Poverty Law Center asked the federal Department of Justice to look into the standardized testing goals of the Florida Department of Education and the state Board of Education. The complaint alleges that Florida education officials have set less ambitious test result goals for black and Hispanic students compared to white and Asian students.

Military Appreciation Week (Nov. 11-15) brings lots of events
Military Appreciation Week (Nov. 11-15) brings lots of events
NOV. 8, 2013 – SPSU has scheduled a number of different activities that are free and open to the public in observance of Military Appreciation Week, Nov. 11-15. This is an occasion to honor the university's veterans, active-duty personnel and National Guardsmen and reservists for their service to the nation. It is also a good time to honor their families who have endured great sacrifices in order for their loved ones to serve.
The week's activities kick off at 12 p.m. on Mon., Nov. 11, with an opening ceremony at the Sycamore Grove (rain location will be the Library Rotunda), complete with a color guard, a flag display and dedication, and the reading of a proclamation.
On Tues., Nov. 12, there will be a pizza lunch with Vietnam veteran Bob Babcock at 11:30 a.m. in the Library Rotunda. The topic of this event sponsored by the office of Student Affairs is "The Fourth Infantry: From Vietnam to Iraq." Babcock is an author, active with the USO, a past vice president of the Atlanta Vietnam Veterans Business Association, the past president of the 22nd Infantry Regiment Society and the current president of the Fourth Infantry Division. In addition to discussing the Fourth Infantry, he will talk about applying skills acquired in the military to school work and to job searches.
A brown-bag lunch and discussion on Wed., Nov. 13, will explore "The Transition from Soldier to Scholar" by a panel of student veterans in the Student Center Ballroom at 12 p.m. will provide drinks and dessert. Dr. Zvi Szafran, vice president for Academic Affairs, is sponsoring this event. That night at 8 p.m. in the Student Center Theater, there will be a showing of the movie "The Tuskegee Airmen" with popcorn and drinks provided by Student Affairs.
A Military Appreciation Week luncheon sponsored by the SPSU Foundation on Thurs., Nov. 14, is open to all students and faculty members. Speaker Tommy Clack, a triple amputee, is the eighth generation of Clacks to serve in the U.S. Army. His son, Adam, is an Army Ranger with nine combat tours. Clack's talk is titled "Freedom is Not Free." He makes more than 150 presentations a year at colleges, high schools, elementary schools and churches and is president of the Walk of Heroes Memorial in Conyers, Ga. This luncheon, scheduled for 11:30 a.m.-1:30 p.m. in the Student Center Ballroom, will also include a military tribute and a video. The event is free, but reservations are required as seating is somewhat limited. To reserve a seat, e-mail Dawn Ramsey at firstname.lastname@example.com.
The special activities wrap up on Fri., Nov. 15, with a tailgating event at 4:30 p.m. followed by the Hornet Pride Basketball Games in the Gymnasium. The women's team tips-off at 5:30 p.m., and the men's team will begin its game at approximately 7:30 p.m. Both teams will play Blue Mountain College of Mississippi. These events are sponsored by Student Affairs.
In addition, look out for the prisoner-of-war/missing-in-action table set up all week at Stingers. For more information on Military Appreciation Week events, go to www.spsu.edu/adultlearner/militaryappreciation or call ext. 3200.
These events were planned by the Military Appreciation Week subcommittee of the Military Task Force, which includes: Dianne Summey, secretary to the president; Sharon Hodge, secretary to the dean of the School of Architecture and Construction Management; Ron Lunk, director of student activities; Jeff Hughes, associate director of the Career and Counseling Center; Dawn Ramsey, director of the office of Faculty Support and Development; Sara Gibbs, a student representative; and Roger Soiset, a lecturer in the Social and International Studies department.

Good news for fans of killer robots from the future. A bunch of production companies you've never heard of are developing Terminator 3000, a proposed $70 million, 3D animated feature.
Although plot details are sparse, the film will involve characters from the original Terminator. However, what we do know is that those involved with the production are keeping violence to a minimum in order to avoid an R rating. After all, we wouldn't want a movie about blood-thirsty cyborgs from a post-apocalyptic hell hole to get too violent. What if someone wants to take their grandma, or maybe their 4-year-old daughter? Terminator was meant for the whole family. (Coming Soon)
