SDSU knocks off No. 15 Huskers
Ashley Eide scored a season-high 26 points, leading South Dakota State to a 60-55 upset victory over 15th-ranked Nebraska Sunday afternoon at Frost Arena.
The Jackrabbits, who defeated their highest-ranked opponent in the Division I era, evened their record at 2-2. Nebraska, playing its first road game of the season, dropped to 3-1.
The game was tightly contested throughout, with neither team holding more than a three-point lead in the first half. SDSU's largest lead of the opening half was 5-2 after an Eide three-pointer, while the Cornhuskers led 24-21 with 6 minutes, 38 seconds to play.
Nebraska All-America candidate Jordan Hooper hit a baseline jumper at the first-half buzzer to give the Cornhuskers a 28-27 halftime lead. In all, the first half featured nine ties.
SDSU opened the second half with an 8-0 run, four points of which came on a pair of Eide baskets.
Nebraska countered with an 8-0 run of its own to regain a 36-35 lead on a three-pointer by Hooper with 12:33 to play in the game.
Baskets by Megan Waytashek on back-to-back possessions gave SDSU the lead for good at 45-41 with under seven minutes to play, breaking the 11th and final tie of the game. A putback by Leah Dietel - her only points of the game - at the 3:28 mark put the Jackrabbits out front 53-45.
The Jackrabbits sealed the victory by making 4-of-5 free throw attempts in the final 34 seconds.
Eide was the lone Jackrabbit in double figures, tallying her 26 points on 10-of-17 shooting from the field and a 5-of-6 effort at the line. Katie Lingle contributed nine points and eight rebounds. Dietel matched a career high with 10 rebounds as the Jackrabbits held a 38-27 advantage on the boards.
SDSU finished the afternoon 21-of-48 from the field, 43.8 percent, including a 3-for-14 effort from three-point range. At the line, the Jackrabbits converted 15-of-21 attempts, 71.4 percent.
Lindsey Moore led Nebraska with 21 points, while Hooper tallied 15 points and a team-high seven rebounds. The Cornhuskers went 19-of-47 from the field, 40.4 percent, including 5-of-18 from behind the arc. Nebraska ended the day 12-of-19 at the line, 63.2 percent.
The Jackrabbits return to road action Wednesday night at Northern Illinois. Tipoff is slated for 7 p.m.
NOTES: The all-time series is tied at 2-2 ... the Jackrabbits ended a seven-game losing streak to ranked opponents ... previously, the highest-ranked opponent the Jackrabbits had defeated was 19th-ranked Southern California on Nov. 17, 2006 .... SDSU's last win over a ranked opponent was against another Big Ten foe, a 65-55 win at 25th-ranked Minnesota on Dec. 9, 2008 ... the Jackrabbits evened their record against Big Ten opponents at 7-7 in the Division I era ... SDSU improved to 94-14 at Frost Arena in the Division I era, which began in the 2004-05 season ... Hannah Strop was 2-for-2 on three-pointers to aid in the Jackrabbits' 22-7 advantage in bench points ... Eide was one point away from her career high, which was set against Utah State on Nov. 13, 2011 ... Eide scored 21 in the 2011-12 matchup at Nebraska ... Dietel also recorded 10 rebounds in a victory over Northern Iowa during the 2009-10 season ... Gabby Boever dished out a career-high five assists ... Eide and Tara Heiser each notched four steals ...

The Ogdensburg Bridge and Port Authority will apply for $15 million from the New York State Department of Transportation to rehabilitate the U.S. approach to its Ogdensburg-Prescott International Bridge.
The funding source is DOTs Strategic Transportation Enhancements Program. OBPA submitted the application on Friday and expects an answer in a month.
OBPA Executive Director Wade A. Davis is anticipating a positive response from DOT,
The Authority is hopeful that the $15 million application to the New York State Department of Transportation STEP will be funded, he said last night. From the bridge inspection report, the bridge is need of $100 million in maintenance. This application, if successful, would be a good start to the second phase of the rehabilitation process to protect an asset vital to the economy of Northern New York.
If DOT says yes to the OBPAs application, Mr. Davis said, things will start happening soon.
Like this year.
Its fast track project, he said. This project is shovel-ready. Its a year from start to finish.
The project description in the OBPAs application explains in detail the work that needs to be done. It includes rehabilitation of eight 128-inch simple stinger spans and six 255-foot deck truss spans, painting of the structural steel, steel deck replacement and eliminating raised safetywalks.
The project is expected to create 200 jobs,
According to the OBPAs application, Annually, over 800,000 vehicles and $4 billion of goods cross the international bridge and is key regional infrastructure to the NYS economy.
The bridge is 1.5 miles long and was built in 1960.
Earlier this week, a seven-page report on the 53-year-old bridges 2012 biennial inspection by the Modjeski and Masters engineering firm concluded that the St. Lawrence River crossing was in satisfactory to good condition. But needs more than $100 million worth of repairs to painting, fatigue-cracked steel, main cables and suspenders.

Sharing Memories (Week 39): Special Moments
I've been thinking a lot about times I spent with my dad. He died a month after my 14th birthday so I didn't have very much time with him. But I do remember some of the special times we spent together.
Dad used to take me fishing. I loved going as it meant it was just the two of us sitting by the river, not talking. He fished, I read my book. When I got older he encouraged me to fish with him - he baited my hook with the worm thank goodness! Then he bought me my own fishing rod, a little one that compacted into a nice cloth carrying case. How I wish I still had that rod!
When we'd get home, I would help clean the fish. For some odd reason I really enjoyed that.
I remember his wicker fish basket that he put his fresh caught fish in. Funny how some memories capture a tiny sliver of time as if frozen for eternity. Don't you wish you could make some days last forever?
What are your special moments from childhood?

I have so many memories growing up. We were raised by our Mother's parents as she had seperated from our father and had to work so Granny & Granddaddy was the one who spent most of the time with us.
We lived in the country and going to town once in awhile with grownups was such a treat. But the best part of being a kid with Granny for me was her teaching me how to cut out paper dolls from a Sears catalog. I thought that was the neatest thing. I was not limited to what came with the store bought sets. I could have as many outfits as I wanted to cut out. Granny was the neatest Granny in the world to me.
Granddaddy was a good speller and would challenge us with words to spell and then give us a nickel if we could figure out most of them.
Live was good living with them.

I remember lying on the floor at my grandparents' house listening to an old fashioned radio (from the 1930's) and coloring in our Babes in Toyland coloring books. Now that radio is proudly displayed in my home - just wish I had the coloring books to go with it :-)

Things to do in Toronto
Toronto overview
Whether you're at the top of the CN Tower, taking in a performance at the National Ballet of Canada, strolling through the Distillery District or worshiping at the great altar of Canada's national sport at the Hockey Hall of Fame (while quietly weeping for the Toronto Maple Leafs), there are loads of things to do in Toronto.
The capital of Ontario, Toronto is the most populous city in Canada and its diverse population – half of which was born outside the country – ensure the city enjoys some of the best eating and drinking in the country, along with perhaps the most vibrant cultural outlook on the North American continent. But don't stop at the CN Tower: there's more to discover if you dig a little deeper… And we're not just talking about the mayor.
But don't expect non-stop tourist attractions. Instead, slow down and stroll through the neighbourhoods, soaking up the different cultures that have made their mark on Toronto. Kensington Market is a good place to start: this bustling, bohemian neighbourhood is where successive waves of new Canadians have forged their way and given colour to the cityscape. The Annex, Chinatown, Greektown, Cabbagetown, the Beach and Yorkville are other characterful districts that are worth a ramble. For inconspicuous consumption, veer away from the mainstream towards Toronto's quirkier streets – West Queen West, the Danforth, College Street – where individuality comes across in unique shops and places to eat.
Essential Toronto attractions
A great way to find things to do in Toronto is to head out on one of the many walking tours offered throughout the year: the City of Toronto sponsors themed Discovery Walks around the city and there are free heritage walks of various neighbourhoods put on by Heritage Toronto. But if the gritty underbelly is what you seek, look no further than the Haunted Walk.
Toronto may be young compared to European cities, but over its more than 300 years of history it has managed to accumulate its share of spooky stories and gory facts. These guided storytelling tours take you from the old military town of York and haunted theatres to public hangings, hidden graveyards and more.
Looking for some green spaces? Do like the locals and escape the downtown hustle for one of Toronto's many parks and lakeside beaches – High Park is a local favourite, especially when the cherry trees burst into bloom each spring across its 399 acres in the middle of the city. Or check out one of the nearby islands. A short ferry ride from the Toronto Ferry Docks gets you to Centre Island, where you can rent bicycles, explore the shrubbery maze, go on canoeing and kayaking excursions or try your hand at a round of mini golf at the Centreville Amusement Park. Or, for the SpongeBob NoPants amongst us, check out the clothing-optional beach at Hanlan's Point.
But if you're looking for a more clothed and city-centric experience, explore the many diverse neighbourhoods that make this one of Canada's greatest cities! You can wander through the student-friendly area around the University of Toronto known as the Annex, before striking out for trendier climes at Yonge and Eglinton – otherwise known as 'Young and Eligible', for its twenty-something demographic haunting the trendy cafés and lounges. Or check out one of the largest Chinatowns in North America between Dundas Street West and Spadina Avenue – home of great dim sum and bubble tea – before shopping for saris at the Gerrard India Bazaar (otherwise known as Little India) along Gerrard Street East. And if you happen to visit during Pride Week, you can't miss Church Wellesley Village, the original Toronto Gaybourhood that stretches along Church Street to Carlton and Bloor. The annual Pride week is one of the biggest in the world, but the neighbourhood hops all year long with colourful restaurants, bars, theatres and shops.
A visit to Toronto wouldn't be complete without checking out Kensington Market – a weird and wonderful mix of bohemian restaurants, vintage shops, record stores, cafés and pubs squeezed between College Street, Spadina Avenue, Dundas Street West and Bathurst Street (it was declared a National Historic Site of Canada in 2006). This is where you go if you want to experience Hungarian Thai fusion cuisine (seriously: The Hungary Thai Bar & Eatery is strangely delectable), funky bookstores, counter-culture performance spaces and more. During the summer months, the market becomes foot-friendly as part of Pedestrian Sundays, while every December the Kensington Market Winter Solstice Festival takes over, with a parade of giant puppets, fire breathers and musicians calculated to tempt the sun out of hiding (which is, now we think of it, a very Canadian thing to do).
Sights and attractions details
Centre Island Via Ferrydocks at 9 Queens Quay W. 416 397 2628.
Haunted Walk 416 238 1473.
High Park 1873 Bloor Street West.
Hungary Thai 196 Augusta Avenue. 416 595-6405.
Day trips from Toronto
Contrary to what many Torontonians may claim, there is in fact life further afield from the TDot. Black Creek Pioneer Village, located just outside Toronto, is a 19th-century village inhabited by costumed historical re-enactors that gives a valuable glimpse of Canadian life in the 1800s.
Also dive into Niagara Falls (not literally, we hope), which straddles the Canadian-American border around 90 minutes by car from Toronto.
750,000 gallons of water hurtle over the falls every second and we have it on good authority the view is better from the Canadian side. You can catch a glimpse from Table Rock at the top of the falls, a mere metre away from the edge of horseshoe falls, or head down an elevator through solid rock and experience the Journey Behind the Falls.

Mitford Years #2: A Light in the Windowby Jan Karon
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
The second novel in the beloved Mitford series, by the bestselling author of At Home in Mitford and Somebody Safe with Somebody Good, confirms that a trip to Mitford is good for the soul
His attractive neighbor is tugging at his heartstrings. A wealthy widow is pursuing him with hot casseroles. And his red-haired Cousin Meg has moved into the rectory, uninvited. As you can see, Mitford's rector and lifelong bachelor, Father Tim, is in need of divine intervention. In this beautifully crafted second novel in the Mitford series, Jan Karon delivers a love story that's both heartwarming and hilarious. Only time will tell if the village parson can practice what he preaches. Like At Home in Mitford, this book is filled with the miracles and mysteries of everyday life. And the affirmation of what some of us already know: Life in a small town is rarely quiet and it is absolutely never boring.
In the gentle tradition of James Herriot, Bailey White, Ferrol Sams, and Garrison Keillor, Karon continues the fresh and beautifully written story of a small mountain town in the South. The village rector, Father Tim, can no longer deny his feelings for his neighbor. But what about the wealthy widow who has been wooing him with casseroles? It's clear that Father Tim is in need of divine intervention.
About the Author
Jan Karon, born Janice Meredith Wilson in the foothills of North Carolina, was named after the title of a popular novel, Janice Meredith.
Jan wrote her first novel at the age of ten. "The manuscript was written on Blue Horse notebook paper, and was, for good reason, kept hidden from my sister. When she found it, she discovered the one curse word I had, with pounding heart, included in someone's speech. For Pete's sake, hadn't Rhett Butler used that very same word and gotten away with it? After my grandmother's exceedingly focused reproof, I've written books without cussin' ever since."
Several years ago, Karon left a successful career in advertising to move to the mountain village of Blowing Rock, North Carolina, and write books. "I stepped out on faith to follow my lifelong dream of being an author," she says. "I made real sacrifices and took big risks. But living, it seems to me, is largely about risk."
Enthusiastic booksellers across the country have introduced readers of all ages to Karon's heartwarming books. At Home in Mitford, Karon's first book in the Mitford series, was nominated for an ABBY by the American Booksellers Association in 1996 and again in 1997. Bookstore owner, Shirley Sprinkle, says, "The Mitford Books have been our all-time fiction bestsellers since we went in business twenty-five years ago. We've sold 10,000 of Jan's books and don't see any end to the Mitford phenomenon."

June is National GLBTQ PRIDE month and my next couple of posts will respond to art events sponsored by the National Queer Arts Festival. Despite being late in the month, I hope these posts generate some discussion about the notion of queer arts and PRIDE month, more generally.
Last week I joined a sold-out, yet intimate gathering of people at The Garage for the film screening, Across Queer Time. Curated by artist, Jason Hanasik, Across Queer Time was part of the 12th Annual National Queer Arts Festival and featured thirteen artists including Rudy Lemcke, Curt McDowell, Marc Adelman, Tammy Rae Carland, Jesse Finely Reed, Barbara Hammer, Kristina Willemse, Tina Takemoto, Jennifer Parker, Cheryl Dunye, Julian Vargas, Margaret Tedesco, and Killer Banshee. Hanasik introduced the films describing them as oscillating around tension—fantasy, the world in which we wish we existed, and nightmare (which is, perhaps, part of our reality, as well). Indeed, the films cascaded through themes of... More

|Climbed it early in the morning before doing Tabernacle Dome later. Fun peak and awesome views. I bypassed the 5.5/5.6 crack on the way up but soloed it twice later on just for fun and did not think it came close to 5.5 or 5.6. Brought rope and slings for rappels but never bothered with them. Cool seeing some other SPers' names in the register.

|Finally! Not the hardest Zion Peak I've climbed, but certainly the most cursed (for me). Thanks cp0915 for helping me to end the 40-year curse. Tame compared to Bridge Mt, Zion, but the big exposure certainly gets your attention.
Went again Oct 01, 2011; this time with a justifiably cautious friend-- quite a difference in perspective.
3rd time on Oct 15, 2011. This mountain is definitely getting more popular.
There is a way to right of the crux face, then up a gully, that is easy class 4.

|Awesome looking peak and very fun climb. I thought the first pitch was the hardest. We climbed the crack and it was easy 5th class by Colorado standards. A layback move worked great. Everything above was no harder than 4th class. We climbed it in 5 pitches (a lot of easy scrambling but we didn't feel like putting the rope away and getting it back out again and didn't know quite what to expect). WARNING: on the first rap (down the chimney/lip from the flattish top part of the ridge) there is a HUGE rock ready to go. I bumped it with my foot and it teetered. Very scary.

|Was featured in Climbing Magazine as a 5.6, but the crack up the middle of the east ridge is scrambling grade, maybe 5.4, no need for pro. There is a modern rap sling on tree above. We did Pine Valley Peak which was much more of a challenge in terms of bad rock and exposure, but still, like 5.5, and then ran over and tagged North Guardian. 2nd time ever back in this part of Zion, can't wait to spend loads more time here, a hidden gem with tons to do. Cheers.

|Climbed up the East Ridge. It was easier than I expected but there was no where to place any gear so I ended up free climbing the route and then setting up a belay for my partner. Fun scrambling and great views from the summit. I'm glad I got to climb North Guardian Angel because I always thought it was such an interesting mountain.

|It was again a hot summer day, but in the Kolob Terrace section of Zion it is bearable. Started hiking too late and got little lost on the way between the Northgate Peaks and North Guardian Angel (too many attacking ponderosa trees we had to walk around) and ended up doing the Class 3 slab in the noon sun. Made it to the top of the first section and was waiting for my partner to meet me there. Suddenly he totally gave up in the middle of the first slab. I guess not a good place to figure out his phobia that at certain height without rope he can not think straight and starts panicking a little bit. Had rope in my bag the whole time and could of use the tree close to the top of the slab as a belay station, but rather than risking decided to descent. Insecurity about particular climb and a fear is almost definitely disaster ready to happen. So it is my first unfinished business, but I'm hoping to come back some time and try it again.

5 Mets execs expect Jose Reyes to sign elsewhere
"I spoke to five Mets executives and the sense I got was they believe Jose Reyes will sign elsewhere and – at the least – they will be open-minded when teams inquire on David Wright," Joel Sherman writes in today's New York Post.
Sherman says he thinks the Mets will offer no more than four years with an option. However, with the Marlins, Nationals, Braves and Brewers as 'potential strong pursuers,' Reyes could command a six-year, $114 million-plus contract.
"We do want to re-sign Reyes, but not at something crazy," a Mets executive told him. "If that one team steps up and blows him away, I think he will be wearing another uniform. If not, we'll be in play."
Sandy will come at Jose shortly after the World Series with something close to the team's best offer, from what I've heard. Sherman is feeling four years with an option. That could be correct. However, I hear Jose is adamant on the deal being worth more than $100 million, so this gets dicey if the Mets are only willing to go as high as four years (like Sherman is suggesting) and, say, $70 million (or, $18 million per year). The people I've talked with (who know both sides of this issue very well) think the Mets and Jose can find common ground on the years, I assume that means (in the end) the Mets might consider giving him five years with an option, because Jose will almost certainly be insisting on six. But, other teams aren't involved yet, and what happens if (like Sherman is saying) some team comes along and guarantees that sixth year?
To read Sherman's entire post, in which he also writes about what might happen if teams want to acquire David Wright this winter, click here.

Buffalo, NY - Thousands of boaters in Western New York are now being warned to keep a sharp eye out for another form of a hazard to navigation. It turns out the recent heavy rainfall is causing sunken logs and other debris to wash into the lakes and other waterways according to members of the Coast Guard - Buffalo Unit.
You can can actually see more of that floating or partially submerged debris in some areas along the shoreline. And it's becoming more of an issue. The Coast Guard in Buffalo had some recent calls from boaters in distress from an underwater strike. One occurred near Grand Island on Saturday. Boatswain Mate Second Class Blake Caraballo says "Earlier in the day we had a vessel strike a submerged object. We believe it was a log and they lost their prop and became disabled due to the hitting the log."
It can be very dangerous. Investigators from the Niagara County Sheriff's Office believe a woman in her powerboat was killed two weeks ago from the impact of a collision with a submerged object in Lake Ontario near Olcott Beach. It ripped the hull and bow of her boat.
So the Coast Guard has some important suggestions for boaters. Caraballo says "There are objects that are uncharted and there are objects that are drifting. They're there one day and the next day they're gone such as logs and other debris. And in that instance, that's when you need to have a good lookout for your vessel and always make sure you're paying attention to your surroundings. And always have a safe speed. Be able to stop in the time needed to avoid a collision with something."

Comments about Outdoor Research Transcendent Hoody (Men's):
This Transcendent Hoody is just one of my down garments I have for Fall & Winter wear.They're light and bright (able to see from a distance),even more so than International Orange (which has been the standard)for hikers and hunters for years.Warm,yes they stop the wind,but have a hard time with precipitation of any kind(in other words not waterproof),so an outer layer like a "ghost whisperer w/ hood" takes care of repelling the elements.Zippered hand pockets and "napoleon"chest pocket take care of gloves and mittens,cell phones,etc.

Daemen College : Academics & Research
The Daemen College core curriculum is an innovative competency-based curriculum. In today's rapidly changing world, the competencies developed in the core curriculum will have lasting value and will provide a strong basis for lifelong learning.
Critical thinking employs intellectual skills such as observation, classification, analysis, and synthesis in a reasonable and reflective manner to arrive at meaningful decisions. Creative problem solvers think analytically (cognitively and affectively) and integrate various forms of disparate information into a coherent whole. They demonstrate the ability to reason both inductively and deductively, generate alternative choices, consider consequences associated with each choice, and arrive at a reasonable decision in both familiar and unfamiliar contexts.
Bachelor of Science in Nursing
I learned so much about medical research and the nursing process at Daemen, and the level of professionalism among the faculty and staff had a great impact on my life.
Information Literacy is defined as the ability to know when there is a need for information, and to be able to identify, locate, evaluate, and effectively use that information for the issue or problem at hand.
Bachelor of Science in Physical Therapy
Anything worth anything requires hard work, a little sacrifice, and time management. Including finding time for yourself. That's what I learned at Daemen, on top of the PT education.
Effective communication includes grammatical and technical competency as well as the ability to communicate across cultural boundaries with an awareness of the rhetorical effects of language in a variety of situational contexts (including non-verbal). An ongoing writing curriculum embedded throughout the core will enhance a student's abilities to organize ideas coherently and strategically, to choose words precisely for different levels of discourse, and to evaluate appropriate tone in a variety of discursive situations.
Bachelor of Arts
"I learned about Rosary Hill from my guidance counselor. I wanted a small school and when Rosary Hill gave me a full scholarship I jumped at the chance. It was the only way I could go to college."
Affective awareness emanates from the relationship between sensory experience and emotional response. A sensory experience can move people to great emotional depths and can provoke powerful sensations. An affective process reveals biases, identifies patterns, creates meaning in response to this perception. By assessing affective awareness, one gains aesthetic sensibility to respond knowingly and probingly to the myriad appeals to affective consciousness that characterize contemporary culture.
James Allen, professor of art at Daemen, observed in his notes for a 1997-98 retrospective exhibition that Kuo's work rewarded "all but the most insensitive or jaded viewer with lingering sensations bordering on awe and spiritual renewal, not unlike feelings provoked in the presence of nature's most impressive places."
Moral and ethical discernment is defined as a non-judgmental understanding of how moral and ethical standards are formed, how they influence aspects of our lives, and how they shape public discourse and policy. Moral and ethical discernment is linked to such concepts as integrity, objectivity, public interest, and justice.
Bachelor of Arts in English
The how's and why's of Penny's return to Buffalo and campus are integral parts of her life and career as wife, mother, helpmate in her husband's career as a nationally renowned mental health expert, teacher, and advocate for the early diagnosis and treatment of juvenile mental illness.
Acquiring contextual competency allows individuals to identify and integrate relevant past and present issues affecting individuals, organizations, local societies, and global communities and to understand the constraints and impacts of social, cultural, environmental, political, and other contexts on issues and solutions.
Bachelor of Arts in Music Education
If you think about it, none of us learns from a cookie-cutter approach, one-size fits all or all on the same day at the same time, Thelma advises. Children and teens learn through very specific ways, depending primarily on their age and stage of development.
Civic responsibility is grounded in an appreciation that the health of local, national, and global communities is dependent on the direct and active participation of all members in the well being of the community as a whole. Acquiring civic responsibility enables individuals to transform their social interests into personal advocacy and social participation in local and global communities. Civic responsibility entails a life-long commitment to addressing problems these communities face.
Bachelor of Science in Education
"We talk a global economy but we all suffer if we don't change how we educate students…We have to connect kids to the educational system; that's why we're building a career academy, to make it relevant."
Daemen's Division of Arts and Sciences offers an extraordinary range of disciplines to help make a Daemen graduate as well rounded as today's global marketplace demands.
The Division of Health and Human Services represents a wide arc – from training accountants to equipping physical therapists and social workers with skills needed for success.
That's the best way to really get a feel for what Daemen is all about! Daemen is located in suburban Amherst, New York just minutes away from the city of Buffalo. To schedule a weekday individual interview and tour the campus, email us email@example.com or call 800.462.7652.
The Western New York Service Learning Coalition, located on Daemen's campus serves as a conduit for community organizations seeking service-learning students.

Mimicking Photosynthesis Enables Storage and Release of Hydrogen
10:52 AM MDT | March 20, 2012 | Alex Scott
Researchers from Japan and the U.S. have developed a proton-responsive ligand and a homogeneous iridium catalyst which together enable the controlled storage and release of hydrogen. The approach mimics the conversion of CO2 to sugar by green plants for energy storage during photosynthesis.The ligand and catalyst use CO2 and hydrogen to store energy in formic acid. It is the first reversible and recyclable hydrogen storage system that operates under mild conditions using CO2, formate and formic acid. The approach uses water as a solvent, produces...

The Tax Concentration is intended to provide students with an opportunity to pursue a focused and integrated course of study regarding taxation. The required concentration courses, Federal Income Taxation, Corporate & Partnership Tax, and Taxation of Family Wealth Transfers, are designed to ensure that students develop a broad understanding of key aspects of the United States system of taxation. The concentration electives enable students to deepen their understanding of specific tax issues, such as an understanding of tax policy, taxation of foreign transactions and taxation of non-profit organizations.
The concentration culminates with the year-long Tax Concentration Seminar, which is team-taught by all of the members of the tax faculty. Students participate in the Tax Concentration Seminar during their third year of law school. The seminar is intended to enable students to gain perspective on the overall tax system, provide students with an opportunity to write a significant paper on a tax-related topic of their choice, and foster a sense of community among students and faculty interested in taxation.
In extraordinary circumstances, the concentration adviser, in consultation with the Academic Dean, may waive one of the required courses (other than the Tax Concentration Seminar) for a student who has completed equivalent graduate-level coursework.
To enroll in the Concentration, you must complete a Concentrated Studies Application, have the Concentration Advisor sign the form, and file it with the Records Department in advance of your Fall 3L registration appointment.

Love gaming and love your iPad, but don't love gaming on your iPad? A new concept in iPad accessories, launched just this week on Kickstarter, is looking to bring your two great loves together, with a carrying case designed specifically for gaming and gamers.
Engadget reported yesterday on the latest idea from Audojo, a case that supplies what most gamers find lacking when playing on their tablet – physical controls.
The case, which is compatible with iPad 2 or higher, closes around the ends of your iPad, giving you two analog joysticks, shoulder buttons, and stereo speakers.Meanwhile, the rest of your tablet is left free, so you can use your camera or any of your tablet's buttons without hassle.
There are, of course, other gaming controllers for iPad out there. But how Audojo's differs, says Engadget, is that rather than connecting via Bluetooth, it uses a low-latency microphone-based interface.
hile the case does have a mini-USB connector for charging, it doesn't actually act as a charger for your iPad, which would be cool but would also make the gadget a lot more expensive, so Audojo's decided to keep it simple, for a cheaper, more accessible design.
This isn't a perfect accessory – yet. Engadget took issue with its prototype, which it said "looks a little clunky since it adds quite a bit of bulk to the iPad's figure," though they also noted that, when you're actually using it, "it's light and well balanced and feels comfortable in hand."
They also found that the pods for the shoulder buttons, electronics and batteries, housed at the back of the case, are "are currently too wide but Audojo plans to remedy this before production thanks to an improved circuit board layout."
Audojo's gaming case is far from hitting any store shelves. But if its Kickstarter campaign works out as planned, we should eventually see a slimmer, more refined version of this already pretty cool prototype. And though we're not counting our chickens before they hatch, we have a hunch it could be one of the best iPad accessories yet made for the gaming crowd.

|Written by Steve Frank
|Friday, 25 January 2013 06:31
Bad weather in the forecast, and schools are taking note. Many Piedmont schools have already scheduled early release, and now Avery, Ashe and Watauga Schools are closing for the day, along with other schools in our area. Meanwhile, Blue Ridge Electric Membership Corporation
is on high alert and employees are monitoring severe winter weather of sleet, freezing rain and snow predicted for the cooperative's service area in the mountains and foothills of northwest North Carolina. If members have an outage, they should report it over the cooperative's PowerLine at 1-800-448-2383. Employees are on standby, ready to respond in full force at any time of the day or night should outages occur. Blue Ridge Electric offers the following tips to help members stay comfortable and safe should an outage occur. Have the following supplies on hand in a location that each member of the household can locate quickly:
· Flashlights and fresh batteries
· Matches with firewood and kindling or
· A grill with extra propane charcoal and lighter fluid
· Radio with fresh batteries to listen to weather and news reports
· Extra blankets, sleeping bags, quilts
· Oil lamps and extra oil
· Wind-up or battery operated clock
· Non-perishable food
· Manual can opener
· Paper plates and plastic utensils
· Bottled water or gallon jugs filled with water for drinking and cooking
· Formula and extra diapers for babies
· Thermos for keeping drinks and baby formula warm
· Emergency numbers such as Blue Ridge Electric's PowerLine, local emergency management, police and hospital contacts.
Additionally, if you require a regular medication, be sure to keep extra supplies on hand. If you or a family member requires oxygen, it's a good idea to have a back-up power source and a personal emergency plan that includes family, friends or local emergency management sources to assist you if needed.

COLLEGE PARK, Md. (WUSA) -- University of Maryland's President Wallace D. Loh didn't waste any time in the news conference he hosted on Monday Afternoon.
"We are excited to announce that the University of Maryland will join the Big Ten Conference on July 1, 2014," Loh said.
Loh cited financial woes and other reasons for the big move. He said the reasons were not just for the athletics department, but for university academics as well.
"We are absolutely committed to begin the process to reinstate some of the teams that we had to terminate," Loh said.
The University of Maryland had to cut many of its smaller programs, like gymnastics and swimming, because of major financial difficulty.

By C.J. MCMANUSSun Advocate community editor
As the first week in September came to an end, the Utah Board of Regents convened at the College of Eastern Utah to conduct the panel's regularly scheduled business.
The regents visit was of particular interest to campus authorities as local higher education officials are in the midst of an attempted capital expansion and partnership study with Utah State University.
"It's always great when you have the opportunity to show off your campus," said CEU president Mike King during a Monday interview. "I feel the meeting went rather well, they saw all that we have to offer. It's a rare thing to have all the regents on our campus at once and I do think they came away with a much better understanding of what we are about here."
According to King, the regents approved CEU's master plan, but didn't present the report overall during the main session.
"They just moved it through and we didn't get to hear any comment," said King.
The regents ranked the college's proposal for a new fine arts center seventh on their list of proposed buildings and with another review to come from Utah state building board, King is skeptical about anything happening this year.
Last year, the state building board moved CEU's request from sixth on the regents rankings poll to 17th on the overall state list, according to the college president. And with Utah's track record of building no more than four higher educational facilities in one year, King's skepticism is well founded.
As a high note, the regents seemed very impressed with the college's retention data which was presented during the morning breakout committee session.
"Our numbers are well above the national average and it speaks well for our campus, we have a culture of caring here," explained King. "That culture keeps the students coming back."
Historically, the college has enjoyed a relatively high retention rate.
The most recent Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) report indicates a first to second year retention rate of 76 percent for full time students and 89 percent for part-time students," according to college data.
The committee presentation given by Del Beatty, CEU Dean of Students, outlined several initiatives used by the college to foster their retention program, including:
â¢Establishing a formal retention committee to regularly address retention issues.
â¢Continued emphasis on small faculty/student ratios.
â¢Having an engaged faculty consisting of club advisors and programs such as reaching out through food boxes.
â¢A maintained scholarship deferment program.
â¢A new USU partnered advisor.
â¢Encouragement of a more timely engagement in academics through an adjusted withdrawal date.
Beatty brought up defining differences between the college student of today and those of just 10 years ago.
"It's interesting to feel the difference between Gen. X kids of my generation who if 50 showed up to an orientation only two would bring their parents and the students of today who if 50 show up only two do not have their parents with them," quipped Beatty. "For the first time we are dealing with students who have more parents who attended college than did not."
The CEU dean stressed the importance of making a connection with the students, showing them they are not lost in the sea of higher education.
"We are strongly urging students to attend counseling before full withdrawal," said Beatty. "By doing this we have saved seven students so far and that is something we are very proud of."
After showing the regents the college's success he showed them the bill.
"We need money if we are to keep this kind of personal contact going, we are looking at needing anywhere from $50,000 to $65,000 for new personnel."
King who sat in on the meeting had similar feelings toward the college's success at keeping their students in school.
"Our retention rate has been high for several years now," he said. "I think they are staying because it's a good place to be. It's very personal."
And keeping it personal is something King is hoping to do. He reported that he should receive a research report concerning the CEU/USU study withing the next two weeks.
"Our hope has always been that the college will continue to meet the needs of its students. As for the merger it's still too early to tell what is going to be best for this community and the areas the college serves, but that is what we are looking at, what is the best way to meet the needs of those we serve," concluded King.

10 U.S. Code § 1105 - Specialized treatment facility program
(a) Program Authorized.— The Secretary of Defense may conduct a specialized treatment facility program pursuant to regulations prescribed by the Secretary of Defense. The Secretary shall consult with the other administering Secretaries in prescribing regulations for the program and in conducting the program.
(b) Facilities Authorized To Be Used.— Under the specialized treatment facility program, the Secretary may designate health care facilities of the uniformed services and civilian health care facilities as specialized treatment facilities.
(c) Waiver of Nonemergency Health Care Restriction.— Under the specialized treatment facility program, the Secretary may waive, with regard to the provision of a particular service, the 40-mile radius restriction set forth in section 1079 (a)(7) of this title if the Secretary determines that the use of a different geographical area restriction will result in a more cost-effective provision of the service.
(d) Civilian Facility Service Area.— For purposes of the specialized treatment facility program, the service area of a civilian health care facility designated pursuant to subsection (b) shall be comparable in size to the service areas of facilities of the uniformed services.
(e) Issuance of Nonavailability of Health Care Statements.— A covered beneficiary who resides within the service area of a specialized treatment facility designated under the specialized treatment facility program may be required to obtain a nonavailability of health care statement in the case of a specialized service offered by the facility in order for the covered beneficiary to receive the service outside of the program.
(f) Payment of Costs Related to Care in Specialized Treatment Facilities.—
(1) Subject to paragraph (2), in connection with the treatment of a covered beneficiary under the specialized treatment facility program, the Secretary may provide the following benefits:
(A) Full or partial reimbursement of a member of the uniformed services for the reasonable expenses incurred by the member in transporting a covered beneficiary to or from a health care facility of the uniformed services or a civilian health care facility at which specialized health care services are provided pursuant to this chapter.
(B) Full or partial reimbursement of a person (including a member of the uniformed services) for the reasonable expenses of transportation, temporary lodging, and meals (not to exceed a per diem rate determined in accordance with implementing regulations) incurred by such person in accompanying a covered beneficiary as a nonmedical attendant to a health care facility referred to in subparagraph (A).
(2) The Secretary may make reimbursements for or provide transportation, lodging, and meals under paragraph (1) in the case of a covered beneficiary only if the total cost to the Department of Defense of doing so and of providing the health care in such case is less than the cost to the Department of providing the health care to the covered beneficiary by other means authorized under this chapter.

GORY DETAILS: Your computer needs to support sensors (many laptops, for example, do not). You'll need to install the lm-sensors package if it isn't already installed. And it helps to run the `sensors-detect` command to set up your sensor kernel modules first. At the very end of the sensors-detect interactive shell prompt, answer YES to add the new lines to the list of kernel modules loaded at boot.

Recursively find php files and replace tab characters with spaces.
"\*.php" -- replace this with the files you wish to find
"expand" -- replace tabs with spaces (use "unexpand" to replace spaces with tabs)
"-t4" -- tabs represent 4 spaces
Note: The IFS="" in the middle is to prevent 'read' from eating leading/trailing whitespace in filenames.
Warn: use convmv or detox if you can: they are the right tools.
But if you want to do it manually, you can use this command to find the problematic files and transliterate their accented characters to their ascii equivalent.
(Useful when doing cd backup: growisofs may fail on files which come from the old iso8859-* days.)
POSIX requires this "string truncating" functionality.
might as well use it, at least for very small tasks where invoking sed and using RE is overkill.

The main point of this submission is the way it maintains the header row with the command grouping, by removing it from the pipeline before it gets fed into the sort command. (I'm surprised sort doesn't have an option to skip a header row, actually..)

to number other types of files, or all files, just change the *mp3. to rename directories only you could use

[Update! Thanks to a tip from ioggstream, I've fixed both of the bugs mentioned below.]
You, yes, 𝙔𝙊𝙐, can be the terror of the Internet! Why use normal, boring bullet points in your text, when you could use a ROTATED HEAVY BLACK HEART BULLET (❥)!? (Which would also be an awesome band name, by the way).
This script makes it easy to find unusual characters from the command line. You can then cut and paste them or, if you're using a GTK application, type Control+Shift+U followed by the code point number (e.g., 2765) and then a SPACE.
USAGE: Put this script in a file (I called mine "ugrep") and make it executable. Run it from the command line like so,
ugrep heart
The output will look like this,
You can, of course, use regular expressions. For example, if you are looking for the "pi" symbol, you could do this:
ugrep '\bpi\b'
REQUIREMENTS: Although this is written in Bash, it assumes you have Perl installed because it greps through the Perl Unicode character name module (/usr/lib/perl5/Unicode/CharName.pm). Note that it would not have made more sense to write this in Perl, since the CharName.pm module doesn't actually include a subroutine for looking up a character based on the description. (Weird.)
BUGS: In order to fit this script in the commandlinefu limits, a couple bugs were added. ① Astral characters beyond the BMP (basic multilingual plane) are not displayed correctly, but see below. ② Perl code from the perl module being grepped is sometimes extraneously matched.
MISFEATURES: Bash's printf cannot, given a Unicode codepoint, print the resulting character to the terminal. GNU's coreutils printf (usually "/usr/bin/printf") can do so, but it is brokenly pedantic about how many hexadecimal digits follow the escape sequence and will actually die with an error if you give the wrong number. This is especially annoying since Unicode code points are usually variable length with implied leading zeros. The CharNames.pm file represents BMP characters as 4 hexits, but astral characters as 5. In the actual version of this script that I use, I've kludged around this misfeature by zero-padding to 8 hexits like so,
/usr/bin/printf "\U$(printf "%08x" 0x$hex)"
TIP 1: The author recommends "xsel" for command line cut-and-paste. For example,
ugrep biohazard | xsel
TIP 2: In Emacs, instead of running this command in a subshell, you can type Unicode code points directly by pressing Control-Q first, but you'll likely want to change the default input from octal to hexadecimal. (setq read-quoted-char-radix 16).
TIP 3: Of course, if you're using X, and you want to type one of the more common unusual characters, it's easiest of all to do it with your Compose (aka Multi) key. For example, hitting [Compose] <3 types ♥.
in case you run some command in CLI and would like to take read strerr little bit better, you can use the following command. It's also possible to grep it if necessary....

AUGUSTA, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- Most of the time, social service programs have many more applicants than they do money for services. But right now, NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, says it has plenty of money available to help families who need respite care. It's looking for families.
NAMI took over Respite For ME, which is funded by the state, this summer. Qualifying families with children who have certain disabilities can receive up to 192 hours a year of child care, so parents can have personal time without the stress of constant care giving. The program has been around for a long time, but because of confidentiality issues, NAMI has not been able to access the lists of families who have received services in the past.
And some families, who used relatives for respite care, seem daunted by NAMI's new certification requirements for respite workers.
The agency wants people to know that they will work with care providers to make sure they get the qualifications they need to get paid.
Respite Program Director Pete Phair said, "We anticipated that families would be clamoring for this service. And the fact that our numbers are so low show a number of things have happened and not the least of which is we haven't been able to reach out to the families we need to reach."
If you are interested in receiving or providing respite services, give NAMI a call at 1-800-464-5767, or click here for more information.
