Why Wooster
Wooster is America's premier college for mentored undergraduate research.
Why should you care? Because Wooster students' research experiences help them develop abilities prized by employers and graduate schools alike: critical thinking, independent judgment, creativity, project-management and time-management skills, self-confidence, and strong written and oral communication skills.
Students can begin working with faculty on research in their first year at Wooster. The Applied Mathematics Research Program, Sophomore Research Program, and Howard Hughes Medical Institute Summer Research Scholars program provide opportunities for hundreds of students every year.
Then in senior year, each Wooster student works one-on-one with a faculty mentor to conceive, plan and complete a significant piece of original research, scholarship, or creative expression, in a capstone program called I.S.
The results speak for themselves:
- Six months after graduation, more than 90% of Wooster graduates are employed or in graduate school.
- Wooster ranks 29th overall among liberal arts colleges whose graduates go on to earn a Ph.D., sixth in chemistry, ninth in physical sciences, 15th in political science and public administration, and 18th in history.
Maybe that's why, every year since 2002, when U.S. News & World Report has asked college presidents and deans to name schools with outstanding undergraduate research opportunities and senior capstone programs, only two schools have made both lists every year: Wooster and Princeton.
There's a distinctive sense of spirit.
Spend some time on Wooster's campus and you can't help but notice that there's a distinctive spirit here.
And a vibrant local community.
The city of Wooster is a community of 26,000 with a strong, diversified economy, a downtown full of great restaurants and shops, national favorites like Chipotle, Starbucks, and Panera, and much more.

PROVIDENCE – While far from finalized, several realignment proposals were shared and discussed amongst the Rhode Island Interscholastic League's Principals' Committee on Athletics Monday afternoon.
Speaking on behalf of the realignment committee, Prout Athletic Director Mike Traficante presented modifications to the formula that has been the determining factor in placing teams in corresponding divisions. The earliest these changes would take effect is the 2014-15 academic year, the first year following the expiration of the current two-year realignment agreement.
PROVIDENCE – While far from finalized, several realignment proposals were shared and discussed amongst the Rhode Island Interscholastic League's Principals' Committee on Athletics Monday afternoon.
Speaking on behalf of the realignment committee, Prout Athletic Director Mike Traficante presented modifications to the formula that has been the determining factor in placing teams in corresponding divisions. The earliest these changes would take effect is the 2014-15 academic year, the first year following the expiration of the current two-year realignment agreement.
The new plan would still consider eight years of league data, which accounts for 70 percent of the formula. Ten percent would take into account a team's record over the past three years, which according to Traficante "would help schools avoid being higher if they had a great player or two four years ago."
The final 20 percent would be based on male or female enrollment. The current formula has a 70/30 split with 70 representing results over an eight-year span with 30 reserved for enrollment. The new formula that Traficante mentioned would feature a 70/20/10 breakdown.
Traficante said that the way a school tabulates enrollment is also under review. He specifically cited Woonsocket High and how the submitted numbers don't always paint an accurate picture.
"Their numbers may be close to 1,800, but they have 150 students at the school that are not eligible to play athletics because of their age or they're fifth-year seniors or something to that affect," Traficante explained. "We're looking at the possibility of getting more accurate numbers. It'll help get the larger schools out of the higher divisions where they suffer because of their enrollment and maybe boost up some of the smaller schools who have been successful in lower divisions."
The sports that would not be subject to realignment would include golf, indoor and outdoor track and swimming. Everything else is fair game, says Traficante, though there are questions about how to proceed with ice hockey, a sport loaded with co-op programs.
It's possible, Traficante said, that the realignment committee will send out a one-question survey to schools: "Do you wish to participate in Division I?"
"We want to give the schools an opportunity to play up a division if they so choose," said Traficante.
Using girls' basketball as an example, Traficante said that in the event of only seven teams opting to compete in the top division and the girls' basketball committee comes back with an 18-team Division I, the PCOA and the R.I. Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association, "we can put some of the onus on that committee.
"Just because you don't opt to play in Division I doesn't mean you're not going to end up there. You're certainly not going to have a seven-team Division I girls' basketball league," Traficante added.
After deliberation and cross-referencing the numbers, Traficante feels that most of Rhode Island's teams probably fit best in Division II -- there are only a handful of true Division I teams, and a third division is essential in some sports to achieve balanced competition. Again, the athletic director stressed the vigilance that each sport's committee must show when figuring out where to slot teams.
"We're looking into as many variables as possible," said Traficante when asked about placing a team at a competitive disadvantage, i.e. in a division where it has little chance to succeed.
Tom Mezzanotte, RIIL executive director, took the occasion reflect on just how far the realignment process has come since he came onboard nearly a decade ago.
"Before I came to this position, sports committees were basically made up of coaches. Since we came up with this formula, administrators and athletic directors now have more of a say in terms of the running of those sports, and I think that's important," Mezzanotte expressed. "We can't expect (the PCOA) to come up with all the answers. What we want is the sport committees to come to you with good recommendations."
Below are some other items discussed at Monday's PCOA meeting at RIIL headquarters, located at Rhode Island College:
– In a move that was almost a foregone conclusion, three members of the now-defunct Tolman High hockey program – Jared Pedro, Kristopher Wallace and Teddy Reall – will be allowed to join a one-year co-op team with Scituate. The PCOA voted 15-0 in favor of the request that was first presented at January's meeting. Signed approval from the principal and school committee from Pawtucket and Scituate was required prior to final consent.
– The request that Woonsocket High to drop from Division I to II in girls' basketball was unanimously denied (14-0). The girls' basketball committee had already heard and rejected the Novans' wish to relocate.
Mezzanotte said that a letter was received that stated Woonsocket should drop down because it "lost 17 leagues games last year by an average of 32 points." The Novans went 1-17 in 2012-13.
– The Lincoln/Cumberland girls' hockey program was re-upped for the 2013-14 season. The Lions advanced to the Division II finals this past season.
– The results from the survey that was sent out regarding the future of co-op teams was discussed. Mezzanotte stated that there are plenty of variables to still consider before arriving at a more definitive conclusion.
– Starting next season, a win in boys' and girls' soccer will now result in three points. The reason why two points used to be awarded was to increase the chances of a team making the playoffs with a 40 percent winning percentage or better. The three-points-per-win now eliminates those teams who play for a tie.
– The new chairman of the PCOA for the next five years is Lincoln High Principal Kevin McNamara. He takes over for Johnston Principal Gerry Foley.

The proposed $3.6 million upgrade of the nearly 40-year-old Watertown Municipal Arena could include a new lobby, ticket booth, press box and offices, and bigger and better locker rooms and restrooms.
For years, city officials have talked about completing some major improvements at the facility at the Alex T. Duffy Fairgrounds, citing increased use and a need for more space.
The project is listed in the citys $39.9 million, five-year capital projects budget.
Seven firms with expertise in sports venues were contacted by the citys Engineering Office to submit proposals on how they would approach designing the project. Four firms recently toured the facility and had until today to submit proposals. The Watertown City Council will choose which one to hire.
Parks and Recreation Superintendent Erin E. Gardner said the consultant will determine how to go about completing such a large undertaking.
They are going to come back with how best to use the facility, she said.
In February, council members informally agreed to go forward with the project when they were briefed during a work session. It also is expected to be a part of budget discussions next month when council members consider the capital improvements program.
The design work would be completed this year, with the project possibly starting next year, City Engineer Kurt W. Hauk said.
The venue hosts the Thousand Islands Privateers minor-league hockey team, figure skating and youth hockey during the winter and concerts and myriad other events throughout the year.
After talking to the four consultants, Mrs. Gardner said she envisions expanding the building out from its front, where a ticket booth and state-required restrooms and piping for RV hookups at the fairgrounds would go. She also said she hopes the Privateers get a new home team locker room, including such improvements as more space, a warming room where spectators can view the action on the ice and new administrative offices, party room, entrance and lobby.
City Councilman Jeffrey M. Smith, a longtime supporter of the ice rink, said the work should have been done a long time ago. Some of the work was included years ago in previous capital plans, he said.
I think everybody agreed to lets get it all done, he said Thursday, noting that different aspects of the project must be planned out well, so it doesnt interfere with activities and programs.
Councilwoman Roxanne M. Burns said the cramped locker rooms and inadequate restrooms have been an embarrassment for years, especially since many of the arenas users are from outside of the city.
We really need to spruce it up, she said, noting its use has increased over the years.
The project also would include repairs to the roof and its trusses. For several years, the roof has been plagued with leaks during heavy rainstorms.
The concrete floor and fire suppression system also would be replaced. A back parking lot might be expanded. All of the work would be funded through a 15-year serial bond, with projected debt service of $56,250.
Two years ago, the city upgraded the concession stand and took over its operations from a youth hockey organization. As separate projects, the city plans to replace the 35-year-old bleachers at a projected cost of $450,000 and construct an arena storage building at the fairgrounds for about $265,000, both of which are slated to be completed this year.
If the city proceeds with the project, it would come at a time when the Parks and Recreation Department has taken on a new management team and put emphasis on improving and expanding programs.
The venue was built as an open-air hockey arena in 1975 and was enclosed two years later. Over the years, the city has discussed adding a second sheet of ice to accommodate increased use from youth hockey and other organizations. In February, council members nixed that idea, questioning its $4 million cost.
The Capital Projects Plan for 2013-14 also includes spending:
n $90,000 to rehabilitate the citys snow dump platform along the Black River.
n $200,000 to replace the roof of a pavilion and restroom at Thompson Park.
n $150,000 for the citys annual sidewalk replacement program.
n $150,000 on improvements at the Department of Public Works facility on Newell Street.
n $240,000 for new equipment to eliminate ice blockage at the citys hydroelectric plant.
n $800,000 for three new dump trucks, a tractor and refuse packer.

A quintessential name in the history of fun, Wham-O was founded in a Pasadena, California home garage by Arthur "Spud" Melin and Richard Knerr in 1948. The company was named after the sound made by their very first toy, the Wham-O Slingshot, which, like their many other novelties, would win the hearts of millions of kids around the world. The company quickly became one of the leading toy manufacturers in the decades that followed, going on to popularize classics like the Hula Hoop, Frisbee, Hacky Sack and Limbo Kit. The invention of the Superball, an extremely bouncy ball that bounces up to 75 feet, was an instant hit that led to the creation of Superball Golf and Superball Dice, which put an extra lively twist on traditional games.
Now the children of parents who enjoyed these timeless toys in decades past can have some classic Wham-O fun of their own. And just like you may remember, Wham-O toys still come in their original retro packaging for an especially nostalgic touch.
Bulky items such as furniture and rugs cost more to ship due to greater size and weight. Therefore, a delivery surcharge will be billed in addition to the standard shipping charge.

Hello, listeners. Brilliant breakout podcast "Welcome to Night Vale [1]" has gained a rabid (yet adorably introspective) fanbase since it launched in June 2012. The twice-monthly, 20-minute-long show, created by Joseph Fink and Jeffrey Cranor, takes the form of a surreal newscast, coming to us from "somewhere in the Southwestern United States" by way of Twin Peaks [2].
Describing a community of indelible characters, it's a twisted take on Lake Wobegone [3] that vacillates cunningly from whimsical to chilling, often veering into outright poetry. "Night Vale" also recalls the golden age of radio plays: even though it lacks sound effects and depends mostly on the deep, hypnotic voice of narrator Cecil [4], it summons the entrancing atmosphere of such classics as "The Shadow [5]."
And now it's coming to the Victoria Theater for a big live show-reading on Tue/21 [6]. Expect seismic things, tiered heavens, off-limits dog parks, magic lightbulbs, hovering livestock, public service koans, and the heirarchy of angels.
Also expect: cosplay -- something a radio-like show can carve out extra imaginative room for.
I asked Cecil about coming to San Francisco (he really does sound like that in real life!). He enthused about visiting us:
"San Francisco has been an amazing city for 'Welcome to Night Vale.' Last September, we did a live reading at The Booksmith in Haight-Ashbury and it was so much fun -- the fans were super-excited, lots of really creative cosplay. One person walking by the bookstore asked, 'are they giving out free weed in there?'
"This time we are performing at the Victoria Theatre in the Mission for a larger audience and I can't wait to see who (or what) the fans come dressed as. I think there's a special relationship between Night Vale and San Francisco. The people of the Bay Area are exceptionally smart, creative and techno-savy: it's a great combination!"
And now we interrupt this broadcast for a special bulletin: Look to the north. Keep looking. There's nothing coming from the south.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Talk of a so-called currency war has been heating up, and it might finally light a fire under gold, too.
Efforts by countries such as Japan to boost growth with massive stimulus programs — which in turn have devalued their currencies, an aid to exports — can benefit prices for gold. These have started to alter the precious metal's relationship with the foreign-exchange market and expand its role as a safe-haven asset.
"We are now moving irrevocably to a time when gold will measure currencies, not currencies measure gold," said Julian Phillips, a South Africa-based contributor and founder at GoldForecaster.com. Read: Michael Casey: Japan needs a weaker yen.
Historically, the precious metal trades inversely to the U.S. dollar DXY, -0.43% as it did on Thursday and Friday. It was a usual story: gold prices fell sharply as the greenback strengthened at the expense of the euro EURUSD, +0.7182% on Thursday and as the Japanese yen USDJPY, +0.26% weakened on Friday. See Friday's story: Gold settles sharply lower, down over 3% on week.
Why no one will win the currency war
Airlines like AirAsia and SpiceJet are seeking growth through non-ticket revenue. With Japan, China and the U.S. all pursuing weak-currency policies, major economies are retaliating. China's banks have recently been exceeding their lending limits.
But as various currencies become devalued, gold may take on an even stronger role as a haven.
"We are about enter a phase in the gold price where it will rise against all currencies," said Phillips. "The loss of the Swiss franc USDCHF, -0.4347% and the Japanese yen as 'safe-haven' currencies, as [the countries] forced their currencies to weaken, has made us all realize national currencies are the same animal in different guises."
Gold's bull run began more than a decade ago, with ultra-easy monetary policies by central banks a key reason for the rally.
In February 2001, gold futures US:GCJ3 traded at around $260 an ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange. Gold closed at $1,609.50 on Friday — a six-month low, but also more than six times higher than 12 years ago.
"The methodical debasement of fiat currency, via super-accommodative monetary stimulus, is an continuing trend that has hugely contributed to the 12-year rally in gold," said Peter Grant, chief market analyst at USAGold.
"Whether this has already degenerated into a currency war or not, it is a trend that seems likely to continue for some time to come," he said. "And that is ultimately a positive for gold."
War now or later
So what's a currency war and are we in one?
A currency war refers to a competitive currency devaluation by countries trying to ease strength in their currencies.

Founded in 1999 by Daniella Clarke, Frankie B. jeans are designed for women that are laid back, feminine, and confident with a bit of a rock star edge. Clarke has been altering and redesigning clothing to fit her own style since her early teens, but it was while on tour with her rock star husband in the late 90s that people really started to notice her one-of-a-kind jeans. Soon after, Clarke launched Frankie B., a high end jeans brand named after her daughter Frankie. Creating the low-rise craze, Frankie B. has grown across the globe, gaining fans that are best known for their Frankie B. addiction. In fact, most fans of the brand collect pairs and own on an average of more than 10 different styles!
After a few years of huge success with her own brand, Clarke was invited to join Dittos, the iconic Southern California denim brand that she herself had worn and loved as a teenager. The first collection was introduced in Spring of 2007 and quickly gained a large fan base. Clarke is now the creative director for both Dittos and Frankie B. and with both brands remains true to the philosophy instilled upon her by her mother: If the clothes youre wearing dont make you feel and look better, then whats the point?
With an amazing low-rise, skinny fit that could make any girl feel like a sexy rock star, (or feel like shes married to one), Frankie B. jeans have become a wardrobe staple for women everywhere. With celebrity fans like Sienna Miller, Charlize Theron, Mischa Barton, Eva Longoria, and Fergie, these jeans are the go-to for high-end denim.

On Saturday, September 14th an article in the Salt Lake Tribune, written by Walter Borla from Helper, stated that he was suggesting that the state legislature approve Helper be allowed to have casinos in town. I agree with Walter Borla. If Helper City officials agree.
Our two legislators should present this to the state legislators and governor in the 2003 session. Also, the travel council of the county and the Carbon Chamber of Commerce should support Mr. Borlas suggestion. Just think about it. These agencies are always seeking ways to bring people, visitors and travels to Carbon County.
Having casinos in Helper would do all this for Helper and Carbon County and help with growth and the economy.

Science has taken nature out of healing, growing crops and nearly every other aspect of modern life, often to the detriment of health and prosperity; now, scientists want to grow your meat in a lab.
Mark Post, a Dutch scientist, says that by fall he will have perfected a method of making beef from the stem cells of cows, and his goal is to replace the entire animal meat industry.
According to Discovery News, Post is working to invent an efficient way to produce skeletal muscle tissue in a laboratory that exactly mimics meat. He says that he is still in the laboratory phase, but should be able to make a stem-cell hamburger by fall.
Post is the chair of physiology at Maastricht University in the Netherlands. He said his project is funded with 250,000 euros from an anonymous private investor who claims their motivation is "care for the environment, food for the world and interest in life-transforming technologies."
Scientists like Post hope to perfect their "meat" products for mass consumption, claiming they will reduce the environmental and health costs of conventional food production.

Landowners are being encouraged to assist a research project from the state Department of Environmental Conservation that will track wild turkey populations, according to a statement released last week.
Starting this month, the department will launch an effort to capture female wild turkeys, or hens, and fit them with leg bands to obtain accurate data on survival and harvest. A small number of these birds also will be tagged with satellite radio transmitters. All of the work will be done by DEC personnel on public and private lands from January through March.
The department is looking for landowners in DEC regions 3 through 9 interested in allowing birds to be trapped on their land, as well as alerting project coordinators when they see turkeys on their property regularly.
DEC noted wild turkey populations in the state have declined for the past 10 years. In committing to a four-year study, the department is planning to provide wildlife managers with estimates of harvest and survival rates for hens and guide future management efforts.
Observations of turkey flocks during January through March can be reported to the project coordinator for their respective region or can be reported using the Winter Flock Survey form found on DECs website at www.dec.ny.gov/animals/48756.html.
Interested landowners in Herkimer, Jefferson, Lewis, Oneida and St. Lawrence counties are asked to call Region 6 project coordinator Jeff Eller at 785-2262.

Friedrich Hayek and the Future of Liberty
Recorded: Wednesday, May 16, 2001
Friedrich A. Hayek (1899-1992) left such a profound mark on economic and political thought that The New Yorker has called the 20th century, "The Hayek Century." After converting to free-market capitalism and classical liberalism in the 1920s, Hayek became one of socialism's and statism's staunchest critics. His 1944 bestseller, The Road to Serfdom, warned of central government planning's authoritarian, and even totalitarian, tendencies- and helped reignite worldwide interest in the philosophy and practice of freedom. Although Hayek's 1974 Nobel Prize in Economic Science brought renewed interest in his ideas, it wasn't until the collapse of the Soviet Bloc (which Hayek predicted) that his vast writings on economics, political philosophy, law, history, culture, and other fields became broadly recognized as essential to achieve a prosperous, humane and free society. Biographer Alan Ebenstein and economist Charles Baird shed light on Hayek's seminal legacy and the rebirth of freedom.

Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke signaled that the Fed would return to another round of "quantitative easing" (QE) in his August 31 annual address from Jackson Hole, Wyoming, a speech that also claimed economic success for the Fed's past two QE purchases of federal debt securities.
The Wall Street Journal's MarketWatch.com noted that Bernanke "made it clear that he's ready to pull the trigger. The only question that remains is whether it will happen in mid-September or December." The Federal Reserve has also kept its "Federal Rate" interest rate to banks at historic lows, from one-fourth of one percent to zero, in an effort to spur more borrowing. Bernanke said in his address that "the Federal Reserve will provide additional policy accommodation as needed to promote a stronger economic recovery and sustained improvement in labor market conditions in a context of price stability."
Bernanke also touted the fact that "a study using the Board's FRB/US model of the economy found that, as of 2012, the first two rounds of LSAPs [Large-Scale Asset Purchases of Federal debt] may have raised the level of output by almost three percent and increased private payroll employment by more than two million jobs, relative to what otherwise would have occurred." But the Federal Reserve chairman does admit that "obtaining precise estimates of the effects of these operations on the broader economy is inherently difficult, as the counterfactual--how the economy would have performed in the absence of the Federal Reserve's actions--cannot be directly observed." The current economic recovery is the weakest on record, despite the claimed success of the Fed's QE. In fact, if QE has been so successful, why is it that, as Bernanke claimed, "following every previous U.S. recession since World War II, the unemployment rate has returned close to its pre-recession level, and, although the recent recession was unusually deep, I see little evidence of substantial structural change in recent years."

My grandmother, like most, had a candy dish sitting in her "front room" (a.k.a. the least lived-in room). I don't recall ever wanting any of the candies she put in her candy dish. Maybe it's because they were dusty and not M&M's, but I can't remember, exactly.
Even so, I still have a thing for the old-fashioned candy dish. I'd love to have one today in my "family room" (a.k.a. the room with the couch my kids use as a launching pad) filled with Peanut Butter M&M's, Nerds, or Crazy Core Skittles.
I know I'm not alone in this dish nostalgia. Former lawyer and Harvard grad, Maggie Wickes moved West and launched her Colorado-based Bluebird Candy Dish Co. this time last year out of concern for the extinction of the vintage candy dish. All of the dishes in Maggie's collection are new and many of the vintage-inspired candy dish options incorporate classic glassware patterns.
I also found some pretty terrific candy dishes at Etsy.com—all of which could double as heartfelt holiday gifts filled with vibrant holiday candies. (Click on each photo below for product info.)
Here's an additional gem from 1StopRetroShop.com …
Do you have fond memories of your grandmother's candy dish?

This router is the great. High speed data transfers on both over the air and through ethernet. Allows you to connect other devices through USB to share throughout your network. I attached my backup drive.
stuff nobody tells you 9/17/2012
The old addage "you get what you pay for" has never been more true then as it applies to wireless routers. All cheap wireless routers (like this one) are cheap for a reason. Specifically a lack of memory and processing power. If multiple people are trying to access hi def streaming through this junk box at the same time it drops connections because it runs out of resources. if you are only connecting 1 hi def device and nothing else then it is fine.

Temple of the Drum, by Dragon Ritual Drummers
By Mike Gleason | Leave a comment
Temple of the Drum, by Dragon Ritual Drummers CD: Dragon Ritual Drummers, 12 tracks, 55:34 min., 2011I am extremely grateful that a friend pointed me in the direction of Dragon Ritual Drummers a few years ago. In the intervening years, I have had the pleasure and opportunity to receive and review several of their releases and I have yet to be disappointed by the quality of the performances and production values. These folks know how to use their instruments to attain the best possible results.Almost all of their music is written by members of the group, though they do include a few traditional songs to add a little extra flavour and variety -- "Fanga" and "Shaharazad" are examples on this album. Perhaps the most striking thing about their performances is that they don't use "studio tricks" to make their recordings: there is no sampling from other sources, no instrumental enhancements of any sorts. What you hear is all natural, although it is possible Read More

Students in the H.M.S. Richards Divinity School experience a deepened spiritual awareness through activities inside and outside classes. Spiritual formation is foundational to the church and its life. Courses offered address Christian spirituality in the context of faith development. The curriculum is designed to afford students opportunities to deepen their spiritual awareness in classes directly related to the history, theology and practice of spirituality. The course offerings for graduate students that are related to topics of spirituality and the dynamics of Christian formation practices include the following:

In addition to the student's regular weekly worship in the church of their choice, campus-related opportunities for strengthening spirituality include devotional gatherings like:
- weekly dormitory worship services Wednesday evenings at 10 p.m. for our residential students
- weekly university chapels Tuesdays at 11 a.m. in the La Sierra University Church
- quarterly Divinity School assembly meetings in Angwin Hall Dormitory Chapel

There are also regular staff devotional meetings for students doing field study. The extra-curricular opportunities for rest and rejuvenating the spirit are provided by the spiritual life office and other campus resources.
Vision Statement
We see ourselves as an open community of learning and service, conviction and hospitality, solidarity and diversity, where faith seeks both understanding and transformation.
Our vision is to be attentive to the calling of Jesus Christ to present truth,* while not forgetting how God has led us in our past history,* and ever listening and reaching out through the empowering of the Spirit to a changing church and world. We seek to form leaders who will be both effective and winsome spokespersons for the gospel, and capable of courageously standing for the right though the heavens fall.*
We seek collaborations with congregations and partner institutions where conversations can deepen our service in God's cause in the world.

Cyber and Industrial fashion share many elements, and depending on who you speak to you will get very different definitions.
Cyber fashion as a general rule includes more color (often UV and glow colors), and industrial uses metallic as a replacement for color.
A great cross over element is the use of iridescent materials as your contrast element, by using an iridescent you gain both the glimmer of a metallic and the flash of color that is important to many cyber styles.
Another element that often is the basis for a cyber ensemble is white; a huge contrast to the charcoal and black that is generally the base for both cyberpunk and industrial fashions, the use of a white base material fulfills both the UV requirement of many cyber outfits and sets a rather futuristic tone. Both styles depict a sense of futurism, only with differing focuses.

The Official 2012 Fall Oyster Survey Now Available
8/16/2013 | Posted by mtarnowskiTags: Oysters, Shellfish, Recreational, Commercial
The 2012 Fall Oyster Survey is now available. The survey was a two-month endeavor which encompassed 262 oyster bars and 316 samples throughout the bay and its tributaries. The results indicate that oyster populations continue to improve in most parts of Marylands Chesapeake Bay, thanks to persistently high survivorship of the strong 2010 year class. The 2012 Survey along with previous editions can be found on the State of Marylands Monitoring and Assessment Shellfish Program web site.
The fall oyster survey is conducted annually to check upon the overall health of the oyster population within the Maryland portion of the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries.

CANTON An Ogdensburg woman was sentenced to jail Friday by a St. Lawrence County judge on a felony charge of driving while intoxicated.
Jamie L. Ramsay, 28, of 10201 Route 37, was sentenced to one year in the county jail.
Judge Jerome J. Richards said Ms. Ramsay initially had been released under probation supervision in February when she pleaded guilty to the charge; however, he noted, she violated the terms and conditions of her probation by failing multiple attempts at inpatient treatment and by having consumed alcohol, resulting in a blood alcohol content of 0.22 percent. The state threshold for DWI is 0.08 percent BAC.
When given a chance to address the court, Ms. Ramsay said she had spent more than 180 days in confinement between her time in the county jail and in treatment for alcohol abuse. She said she liked the treatment program but said the other patients made it difficult for her to succeed.
Judge Richards told Ms. Ramsay that was part of her problem.
You look at treatment like jail. You dont look at it for what it is, Judge Richards said, adding that she wasnt taking responsibility for her failure at treatment.
Thats just not owning up (when you say) its not your fault. The program doesnt kick you out if its not your fault, Judge Richards said. My job is not to make you change, but to offer you an opportunity to change, and you dont want to change.
In addition to her jail sentence, Ms. Ramsay was ordered to pay $1,570 in court fines, fees and surcharges and ordered to install an ignition interlock device in any vehicle she might operate upon release from jail.
In other court action Friday:
Andrew F. White, 25, of 46 Sterling St., Gouverneur, was resentenced to probation for violating a five-year probation sentence imposed April 26, 2012, for a felony attempted-burglary conviction.
Mr. White pleaded guilty to the violation on Oct. 21, when he was sentenced to 240 days in St. Lawrence County jail for an unrelated Aug. 19 guilty plea to second-degree criminal contempt, a misdemeanor.
Mr. White was returned to St. Lawrence County jail to continue serving his Aug. 19 sentence.
Susan M. Westurn, 53, of 183 County Route 32, Moira, was resentenced to one year of interim probation supervision for her May 31 guilty plea to felony fourth-degree grand larceny.
Ms. Westurn was returned to St. Lawrence County Court after she had been held in county jail for violating her May interim probation sentence by not reporting to Franklin County Probation, where her supervision had been transferred.
If she successfully completes her interim probation sentence, she will be afforded the opportunity to plead to a reduced charge of petit larceny, a misdemeanor.
Lianne M. Osgood, 24, of 673 County Route 4, pleaded guilty to fourth-degree welfare fraud, a felony.
On Feb. 1, 2011, Ms. Osgood submitted an application for assistance and received $3,124 in illegal temporary assistance and food stamp benefits from February to May 2011. In court Friday, she admitted that she failed to report her boyfriends unemployment benefits.
Sentencing is adjourned to Feb. 24.
Robert J. Driscoll, 28, formerly of Ogdensburg, was sentenced to five years of probation for his June 14 guilty plea to driving while intoxicated, a felony.
Mr. Driscoll operated a 2001 Chevrolet on Feb. 19 on Pray Road in the town of Lisbon with a blood alcohol content of 0.14 percent. Mr. Driscoll previously was convicted of driving while ability impaired by drugs in 2006.
Mr. Driscoll also was ordered to pay $1,570 in court fines, fees and surcharges. His probation was transferred to Madison County where he is participating in supportive living.
Zachary A. King, 24, of 722 Franklin St., Ogdensburg, was placed on one year of interim probation for his July 24 guilty to fourth-degree criminal possession of stolen property, a felony.
Mr. King was arrested on Oct. 25 in connection with two Oct. 24 break-ins, one at the home of Sean D. Barber, 45, at 422 Pine St., and the other at the residence of James A. Adams, 63, at 721 Elizabeth St.
At the time of his plea, Mr. King admitted to Judge Richards that he was in possession of goods valued at $1,500, including a portable heater, copper scraps, power tools and a miniature dirt bike.
Mr. King also was ordered to pay $8,133.66 in restitution and $813 in court fines, fees and surcharges.
Cody J. Gladle, 17, of Edwards, pleaded guilty to third-degree burglary, a felony.
At 1:15 a.m. on Aug. 22, Mr. Gladle broke into the Last Lap bar in Edwards and stole liquor, he told Judge Richards. Mr. Gladle additionally was charged with unlawful possession of marijuana at the time, stemming from a trespassing complaint Aug. 15 from the town of Edwards. His guilty plea Friday satisfies both charges.
Mr. Gladle was released under probation supervision.

Top Hat is the story of Graham, a timid Saturday boy who works at a dry cleaners. His boss (Don) runs a tight ship and constantly berates Graham for his incompetence at the job. When 'The Gentleman' enters the shop, and asks for his top hat to be dry-cleaned, Graham happily agrees. When Graham accidentally shrinks the top hat, he believes he is in serious trouble. What follows is beyond even Graham's wildest imagination.
This project represents my second collaboration with Director Michael Middleton-Downer, and my first with Producer Sian Tomlinson. After reading Samuel Hutchinson's wonderfully warm and quirky screenplay, I phoned up Mike and committed straight away. Good writing is the basis of all great cinematic works, and it's important to not let such gems slip through the net.
The last time director Lee Daniels and cinematographer Andrew Dunn, BSC teamed up was on the film Precious, which earned six ACADEMY AWARD® nominations, including one for best picture. "That film was special, and it meant a lot to people," recalls Dunn. "It changed some lives."
The duo's latest collaboration is the extraordinary story of Cecil Gaines, who served eight presidents as the head butler of the White House from 1952 to 1986. The film begins in the cotton fields of Gaines' youth and reaches a climax when Gaines returns to the White House at age 92 to meet an African-American president. Forest Whitaker plays the title role.
At the end of World War II, General Douglas MacArthur made a difficult decision to spare the life of Japanese Emperor Hirohito. That is the historical setting of Emperor, a new feature film directed by Peter Webber (Girl with a Pearl Earring) and photographed by Stuart Dryburgh, NCZS, ASC (The Piano, Aeon Flux, Amelia).
Of equal importance in the film is the smaller, human story of General Bonner Fellers, the man MacArthur assigns to investigate the matter, and Fellers' relationship with Aya Shimada, a Japanese woman he met years earlier. Fellers eventually risks his career in his search for Aya. Matthew Fox plays Fellers, and Eriko Hatsune is Aya. Tommy Lee Jones is entertainingly gruff as MacArthur.
THE HEAT fires up the box office this weekend, with Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy starring in this buddy cop comedy, directed by Paul Feig and shot by Robert Yeoman, ASC on Kodak 35mm 3-perf film. We can only imagine that the shenanigans and antics that play out on screen also pervaded on set. Here are a few behind-the-scenes photos from the production and a clip to tease your funny bone:
When Sylvain Chomet, the wildly inventive director of the animated feature films The Illusionist and The Triplets of Belleville, set out to direct his first live-action feature, Attila Marcel, he chose to work with acclaimed cinematographer Antoine Roch, AFC. Roch, a veteran of more than 30 feature films, was introduced to Chomet by producer Claudie Ossard. Director and cinematographer were immediately simpatico. "I was drawn to Attila Marcel by Sylvain," the DP relates. "He is so creative, and has such a feeling for odd, wonderful characters – the too big, the too small. He has a very strong 'secret garden.'"
And then there was the script. "It was beautiful," Roch adds. "It was all about the power of memory to transform. Right from the start I saw ways in which I could help Sylvain achieve the power of these memories in Paul's (the main character's) life."

What if you are wrong?
I had a GREAT debate . . . three debates in a row, actually . . . against John Rankin of the Theological Education Institute in Connecticut this week. Topic: "Is the bible full or errors and deceit?" A recording of one of the events will be available.
As I get my notes together, or a transcript, I will post some of the examples here.
- - - - - - -
I won't have a lot of time to jump in to this blog . . . but here is my first contribution.
Based on the mere possibility that there might be a god of judgment, many believers ask, "What if you are wrong?"
As if we nonbelievers have never thought of such a question.
So I turn it around and suggest another possibility, one that would not be any less likely than theirs:
"Maybe there is a god, but he is only going to reward those people who have enough courage NOT to believe in him."
"What if YOU are wrong!?!"

This enchanting seascape, the largest bay along the eastern coast of Madagascar, is home to coral reefs and various species of sharks, dolphins, and sea turtles. Several rivers feed into the bay, producing an estuary-like salinity that makes its waters a perfect environment for regional finfish and shellfish. Many area residents make their livings through small-scale fishing businesses that target sharks and shrimp.
Considered part of the Indian Ocean, Antongil Bay is a haven for humpback whales. Every year between June and September, about 7,000 whales migrate to its coastal waters to breed, calve, and nurse their babies. During this time, the calm of the bay is frequently punctuated by the eerie mating songs of the male whales, who also splash their flippers and tails dramatically. Protecting these waters is essential to the health of the humpbacks, sharks, and other marine species, as well as the vitality of local communities.
A study by WCS and partners presents a novel approach for establishing new large-scale protected areas in Madagascar's waters.
Researchers from WCS, Columbia University, and other institutions find an unusual divide in song themes sung by humpback whales in Madagascar and Western Australia.
