I have a little over 10 years of development experience. For the past few years, I've mostly been working solo and although it has its perks, I feel as if it has been limiting my growth. I'm looking to pick up a contract job to get back into a team environment.
I've been weighing a couple of opportunities:
Company A is using the latest tools (.NET 4, VS 2010, ASP.NET MVC). The interview was fairly technical and I definitely felt rusty and didn't do as well as I had hoped. But I did get the offer. Their development process seems pretty mature. I felt like I could be the "dumbest person in the room" at this job, which I think can be a good thing, from a personal growth standpoint.
Company B is a step behind platform wise (VS 2008, .NET 3.5, ASP.NET WebForms). After working with MVC, I find WebForms pretty painful. I also got the sense they have a fair amount of technical debt and they're still working on figuring out a good development process. But at least they're aware of it and working on it. That's an area of interest of mine and I feel like I could come in and provide some good ideas both in terms of development process and paying off technical debt.
So these seem like two opposing kinds of jobs: one where I have more of an opportunity to learn technically, and one where I might have a better opportunity to come in and effect change.
TL;DR - Which job situation is a better: the one with the biggest opportunity to be a student, or the one with the biggest opportunity to be an agent of change?

Read: Bill Daly Comments On The Differences Between The Two Sides
Bill Daly was on NHL Radio this morning and Nick Cotsonika tweeted out some of what Daly said about the differences between the NHL and the NHLPA.
- The NHLPA is still asking for a salary cap of $67.25 million that never goes down. They are also still looking for compliance buyouts and caps on escrow
- Daly says that games on New Years Eve are "unlikely"
- He says that a disclaimer of interest would put the season in "jeopardy"
- Daly says that his quote of "the hill we will die on" in regards to five-year contract limits came from someone in the ownership room

If you're in Southeast Florida but can't make it all the way to Fort Pierce to visit the Smithsonian, don't despair! Click here for a list of other marine science education facilities—compliments of the Florida Marine Science Educators Association.
Here on the east coast of Florida, we are fortunate to live along the shores of the most diverse estuary in the United States - the Indian River Lagoon (IRL). The lagoon stretches 156 miles from Ponce De Leon Inlet on the north to Jupiter on the south, and harbors over 3,000 species of organisms. Even though the IRL is an everyday sight for many of us, few have ever experienced the unsurpassed biological diversity that lies below these waters. The Smithsonian Marine Ecosystems Exhibit provides a window into this underwater world.
Make no mistake, we are not a typical public aquarium. Our focus is on displaying ecosystems as complex communities of organisms interacting in their environment. At the Marine Ecosystems Exhibit, visitors can explore six different Florida marine habitats and learn about the complexity and importance of marine ecosystems. The largest aquarium is a model of a Caribbean coral reef. Other displays include living models of seagrass, mangrove, estuarine and nearshore habitats, as well as a deepwater Oculina coral reef. There are several smaller aquarium displays and a touch tank where you can meet some of our local sea creatures.
With the help of our dynamic displays we strive to provide the public with a better understanding of the fragile marine ecosystems of the IRL and surrounding area and the impact humans are having on these fragile environments.
Explore this web site to learn more on the background and history of our live exhibits. Learn what it takes to keep them running. You'll also find information regarding our education programs, tours, and special events. Better yet, come visit us in person and see for yourself!
If you have any questions or comments about the Smithsonian Marine Ecosystems Exhibit you can email them to email@example.com. If you are interested in volunteering at the Exhibit, please contact Cristin Ryan at email@example.com.
Mission: To inspire appreciation and understanding of the importance and complexity of marine ecosystems and the process of science through engaging exhibits, meaningful education and the dissemination of Smithsonian Marine Station research.

He is a great utility guy and certainly a benefit to the ball club, but as an every day player at one position, his value is considerably less. I would not give him up for a C level prospect, but for the right deal, I would move him. Jones, Wieters, and Markakis are the only 3 that I would say should be definitively in the long term plans of the Orioles. Every other player, in my opinion, should be available for the right return.

Welcome to my website! My name is Labuschin and this is my website. The main aim is to review products in various markets and provide my honest opinion and review on these.
Just to give you some background, I am German born living in America and what I find is that products built in Germany and products actually made in the US are of good quality – the quality begins to suffer when offshore companies manufacture products. I truly believe that this lack of quality workmanship is ruining the very world we live in. Not just here in the US but worldwide,.
You will find many European countries having products manufactured to high standards. They are durable, they last and the buyer gets real value for money.
So it's my mission here to review popular products and expose the truth. Some reviews may be very positive- others, may not be. One thing I aim to do is tell the truth in all of my reviews.
What sort of products will I be reviewing? Here is a short list:
- Household appliances
- Tools
- Furniture
- Gaming Devices
- Kitchenware
- Textiles
All of these have been in the past, manufactured here. But with the rise of internet shopping, people are looking for the ever saving dollar which has led to a market full of inferior products and left the consumer guessing which products are actually the quality ones.
Well that's where your friend Labuschin comes in! I will be providing weekly reviews on products and I hope you enjoy the reviews. Please feel free to email any review requests to me.

Catching sight of a cockroach tends to make us behave chaotically, what with the running and screaming and throwing of shoes. But it appears that chaos might actually explain how we, and the cockroach itself, behave.
An interdisciplinary team of scientists from Germany have created a robotic cockroach that autonomously behaves in a way reminiscent of a real cockraoch. The robot independently changes gait depending on the surface it is walking on, avoids obstacles and can even extricate its leg from a hole or run away from predators. Recreating lifelike behaviour is not new, but this robot reproduces a huge range of behaviours and quickly reacts to new situations and switch between them. And the secret to its success is controlled chaos in its robotic brain.

A complex symmetric structure known as the exceptional Lie group E8, which has so far only existed in the minds of mathematicians, seems to have turned up in real life for the first time. Physicists from the UK and Germany have conducted an experiment which involved cooling a crystal made of cobalt and niobium to near absolute zero and then applying a magnetic field. As they increased the strength of the magnetic field to a critical value, spontaneous patterns appeared in the configuration of electrons in the crystal, and these patterns carried the tell-tale signature of E8.

Maths for mums and dads
In a survey published last week 79% of parents revealed that maths homework frequently leads to conflict and arguments in the household, and a third of those surveyed admitted that they avoid helping their children with their maths homework. Over 40% of parents proved unable to work out the answer to a question that a 10-year-old might be expected to solve in a national test. (Alex thinks of a number. He adds half of the number to a quarter of the number. The result is 60. What was the number Alex first thought of?) What's more, over 50% admitted to not being able to teach their kids basic maths techniques used in primary school, including division by chunking, the grid method, or number bonds?.
The survey questioned a random sample of 1000 parents who have children aged 6 -11 years. It was commissioned by Random House Group to coincide with the publication of a new book by Plus author Rob Eastaway and Mike Askew. Maths for Mums and Dads is designed to help parents come to grips with the techniques children are now taught at school and to give parents an insight into why children make mistakes.

How long will it be until climate change brings tropical butterflies, exotic birds, or malaria-infested mosquitoes to UK shores? A team of US scientists has come a step closer to an answer by estimating the speed of climate change: the distance animal and plant species would have to migrate every year to maintain a constant temperature in their surroundings. According to the team's study, recently published in the journal Nature, the global mean of this speed is 0.42 km per year, but the study also points to important differences between types of habitat. Mountain species will be able to move slower, a predicted 0.11 km a year, since temperature varies quickly as you move up and down a mountain slope. Ecosystems from flooded grass lands and savannas, however, may have to shift by as much as 1.26 km a year to keep their temperature constant.

Researchers working on the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search experiment (CDMS) received an early Christmas gift last week when their detectors spotted evidence for the existence of dark matter, the mysterious substance that is believed to make up 25% of our Universe. The detectors, sitting half a mile underground in a disused mine in northern Minnesota, detected two events that may be results of dark matter particles bouncing off other atomic nuclei. It's the first time that such events were recorded by CDMS, and while they don't provide conclusive proof that dark matter exists, the detections have caused a stir in the scientific community.

If you are looking for something to while away the holiday, then this issue has plenty of ideas for you! We explore the power of origami to solve ancient (and very modern) problems, find the maths in fashion, and marvel at the complexities of church bell ringing. But it's not all fun and games, as we investigate the controversies surrounding breast screening and the maths behind drug-induced hallucinations, find out how to predict the impact of natural catastrophes, and answer some deep questions about the Universe.

ST. LOUIS, Mo. -
Creighton softball junior Becca Changstrom claimed Missouri Valley Conference
(MVC) Pitcher of the Week honors after a pair of impressive wins at the Central
Arkansas Tournament last weekend.
It marks the third career MVC Pitcher of the Week accolade
for Changstrom after claiming one conference weekly honor in each of the past
two seasons. The weekly award is the first of the season by a Bluejay in 2013.
Creighton players won a total four weekly honors in 2012.
Changstrom shined last weekend at the UCA Tournament with a
pair of complete-game wins to improve to 3-2 this season. She recorded a 0.58
ERA that included a one-hitter Sunday against Grambling State.
The Lincoln, Neb., native and the Bluejay defense fell one
out shy of a no-hitter against GSU on Sunday. Changstrom totaled seven
strikeouts in the complete game one-hitter following an infield single in the
Lady Tigers' penultimate at-bat.
On Friday Changstrom silenced the Ball State offense with
eight K's in a 7-1 victory to open the tourney. The junior right-hander allowed
just one run and struck out 15 through 12 innings of work in the circle against
the Cardinals and Lady Tigers.
Changstrom held opposing batters to a .182 average at the
dish and allowed only three walks on the weekend. She currently leads the
Valley at 9.46 strikeouts per game.

Comments about Gemini CDMP-6000 Dual CD/MP3 DJ Mixing Console:
If NOT for Musicians Friend I would have put this thing in the garbage!! M.F. is attempting to help me solve my problems with this unit. It hums, it loses the left channel on the right CD player. M.F. replaced it once and now I am working with the manufacturer for a cure. Two for two...both of them with exactly the same problem. I have other Gemini equipment (RS415 speakers, GVX 15 sub, 3600 Pro DJ station) and they all work without flaw. In fact I love them. Again M.F. is giving me avenues to follow with Gemini to correct the problem. They said to call them back if I don't get any satisfaction. Three Hips and Horah for M.F. for taking care of its customers...rare no adays. The shame is I do not use my equipment that much. Private gigs only and my other equipment works great. Bought this unit as part of a package deal M.F. offered last year. Made the purchase on Jul 21, 2010 and still working out the problems on this unit. Everything else in the package works great. Right down to Gemini headset!
Comments about Gemini CDMP-6000 Dual CD/MP3 DJ Mixing Console:
I own it and Here are my Pros and Cons:PROS:- mix Fader is feather weight - Seamless loop w/ reloop is average but works fine- 3 band EQ on each CD channel: reliable - Pitch Control with 3 settings works really goodCONS:-The USB slot only reads flash drives stick and not external hard drives-Scratch mode is only emulated and has a bit of pause when you release the wheel (wowing sound)- BPM read out not reliable

NEW YORK (AP) - President Barack Obama has declared a major disaster in New York, Long Island and New Jersey. The declaration makes federal funding available to people in the area.
It bore the brunt of the sea surge from a superstorm that hit the East Coast on Monday. The National Hurricane Center said that as of 5 a.m. Tuesday, the storm was moving westward across Pennsylvania and was centered about 90 miles west of Philadelphia. It lost its hurricane status on Monday and is now considered an extratropical cyclone.
It has left more than 7.5 million people without power. It is expected to move into western New York on Tuesday night and move into Canada on Wednesday.
Superstorm Sandy is pummeled its way throughout the East Coast and so far has left 6.2 million people without electricity. Utility officials say businesses and homes without power in New York City could be without electricity for up to a week. Power will be restored first to hospitals, mass transit and police, fire, sewage and water-pumping stations.
Flooding in parts of the city will linger today and potentially much longer. For a second day the financial district will be closed. As the storm brings the Northeast to a halt, damage is estimated in the billions of dollars.
Sixteen US deaths have been reported due to Superstorm Sandy. Mayor Michael Bloomberg is calling it a "once-in-a-long-time storm."
New York State Police say two children were killed when a tree struck a home in Westchester County.
Sgt. Brian Ferrone of Troop K says the boys, ages 11 and 13, were pronounced dead at the scene Monday night. It happened just before 7:30 p.m. on Bonnie View Street in North Salem.
A 15-year-old and a 12 year-old in the home were also treated for minor injuries. No other details were immediately available.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo's office says at least five people have died in New York state because of the massive storm lashing the area.
Due to Sandy's high winds New York City's major bridges are closed. City officials say the Brooklyn, Manhattan, Ed Koch Queensboro and Williamsburg bridges were closed at 7 p.m. Around 7:30 p.m. the RFK-Triborough Bridge was forced to shut down due to 100-mph wind gusts.
The Metropolitan Transportation Authority said water has surged into two major commuter tunnels and into subway stations and tracks. After water came into the stations and tracks MTA cut power to some subway stations in lower Manhattan. MTA Chairman Joseph Lhota says the New York City subway system is 108 years old and has never faced a disaster as devastating as what they experienced Monday night.

There's trouble afoot in the city of Williston, and it's been brewing for some time. But if you ask some folks, they would chalk up this rough patch to an anomaly and skirt right over it.
No hay peor ciego que el que no quiere ver–There is none so blind as he who will not see.
It's unfair to say the city's finances are in disarray, because the fact of the matter is, no one knows. Anything. Good or bad. Which makes us ask the only question there is to ask–why?
I knew when I was 10 years old I was going to be a writer. I knew when I was 17 years old that newspapers were in my future. That realization only came as I was filling out college applications and it dawned on me that no one pays you to write romance novels when you've never experienced romance.
You may have seen it on our front page last week. Beginning Thursday, March 17 the Williston Pioneer website goes to a subscriber-only site.
Why? You're asking. Because our newpaper content has value and there is expense associated with delivering it to you–whether it be in print form or online.
Each week more than 20 people help get your newspaper to you. Most of you only see the three of us here–Debbie, Chris and me. But the truth is, behind the scenes there are others who ensure that the paper reaches the mailboxes and stores each week.
When Williston City Council President Marc Nussel announced last week the elimination of public comment at council meetings, we were, at first, alarmed. After all, this country is based on basic freedoms–like speech, assembly, religion and the press.
But then Nussel clarified, stating that residents can still speak on issues on the agenda, and if the need occurs, they can be placed on an upcoming agenda to have their concerns addressed.
If the Williston City Council really wants to have its residents attend, and participate, in its meetings and workshops, it needs to take immediate steps to ensure that people are both comfortable and heard.
The city council chambers can pack about 70 people in shoulder-to-shoulder–pretty much like economy seats on an airplane. That in itself is uncomfortable, and possibly unhealthy, as germs have nowhere to go in the stagnant air except onto a neighbor.
At last week's Williston Council meeting, Councilor Debra Jones admonished local candidates to adhere to a resolution the council passed in 2003 that called for proper conduct in public settings.
We agree, but we want to see it taken one step further. We want the council to lead by example and challenge those who come to their meetings to do the same.
The last several city council meetings have, at times, been chaotic.
The question was simple: how spontaneous are you? The answer was easy: very.
And with that brief interchange, I began yet another exciting adventure late last month.
My birthday falls near the end of January, and since I suffer from SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder), Tom usually whisks me away to a sunnier-than-Levy County locale so I can soak up the sun.

Hmmm, ok, I am getting Perl down pretty well, but I am getting quite irritated with the way it handles strings! I can see how perl's string handling is quite powerful, but jeez, it could use a different syntax to hand them. I can remember all ths //\\dds\dfdwq?//d/ blah stuff(yes I know that was just garble, but it got my point across). Do you guys know of an easy way to remember all this junk, or a simplified way of doing it? PLEASE?! :'( :'(

The University of Dallas Satish & Yasmin Gupta College of Business
The University of Dallas is a co-educational, Catholic university founded in 1956. Our students are enrolled in undergraduate, graduate and continuing education programs through the Constantin College of Liberal Arts, the Satish & Yasmin Gupta College of Business, the Braniff Graduate School of Liberal Arts, the School of Ministry and the Center for Professional Development. The University of Dallas has its main campus in Irving, Texas, and an international campus near Rome, Italy.
The main campus, in Irving, is only minutes from downtown Dallas in a city of 200,000 residents. The campus is an oasis of nature in the center of the Dallas-Ft. Worth Metroplex, on 225 rolling acres that overlook both the Las Colinas Urban Center and the skyscrapers of Dallas. The University of Dallas is about 10 miles from the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport.
Business Programs
Since the University opened in 1956, offerings in business and economics have been an important component of the curriculum. When the Braniff Graduate School was established in 1966, undergraduate business courses were phased out and graduate offerings in Business Management began under the direction of Robert Lynch.
The rapid growth of the Master of Business Administration led to the organization, in 1969, of the Graduate School of Management with Lynch as its Founding Dean. Soon thereafter, a joint five-year bachelor-master program leading to the MBA was added.
In 1988, an undergraduate concentration in Business was added, which allowed undergraduates to arrange electives in business and an internship into a coherent experience that could be added to the liberal arts program. Further recognizing the important role of business education, the University established the College of Business in 2002 with Lynch once again as Founding Dean. The renamed Satish & Yasmin Gupta College of Business debuted in the fall of 2013, honoring two alumni for a generous gift. Currently, the College is host to nearly 1,500 graduate and undergraduate students.
In recent years, the program has expanded to include a Doctor of Business Administration, a 30-credit hour MBA, a number of specialized Master of Science degrees, and professional development centers for deeper exploration of key business-related topics.

I've written before about the week in which three Vietnam vets approached me to tell me their story. It was uncanny in that in all of them, I just listened. I asked very few questions, but spent hours nodding my head and saying a word or two. (Of course, the second one was on an airplane and planes make for good confessional booths.)
The last Vietnam tale is short and Air Force related. I have a small team of guys, all civilian, who work for the Navy program I oversee. All of them are older than me, make more money than I do, and are more educated than I am. But the nature of this sort of work requires a uniform and that is where I come in.
Most of my guys are former military, including an Air Force Sergeant who fueled planes in Vietnam. He told me of stories of lying in sweat night after night over there. And of re-fueling planes during the day when they came in. He was proud of his work, as he should be, and never complained about the conditions. For years, he wore a POW bracelet of an Air Force pilot who was shot down over Vietnam. I'll leave his name anonymous, the reasons which will soon become apparent.
Years later, in the late 90s, the Air Force Sergeant used a primitive search engine and actually found the guy whose name was on his bracelet. The POW had returned to the United States after years over in Vietnam. And the Sergeant asked the former-POW if he wanted the bracelet back. (Apparently, this is the tradition? If so, first heard for me.)
Anyway, the Air Force flier told him to keep it. Not in a mean way. But the pilot proceeded to share a list of gripes about the US government and their actions concerning his captivity. He even got a dig in on Jane Fonda. The former-POW felt like more could have been done from the governmental end. And he did not want the bracelet as a reminder. A good American, may God bless him. . .

FY 2015 Request for Applications (RFA) for the National Tribal Toxics Council (NTTC) Technical Support PDF. Proposals are due by June 15, 2015.
Tribal Newsletters
Don't miss the Summer 2011 edition of "Tribal News" (60 pp, 2.55 MB, About PDF) devoted to training and innovation. Featuring EPA's and other training resources, it's aimed at helping tribes enhance their program expertise, technical skills, knowledge base, and problem solving. It also highlights innovative environmental solutions to safeguarding public health and the environment.
Read other Tribal newsletters.
The Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT) manages a Tribal program to better communicate our programs and activities with Native American Indian Tribes. Our goal is to build more effective partnerships with Tribes to safeguard and protect human health and the environment from toxic hazards and to promote pollution prevention in Indian country. Improving communication between EPA and Tribes is our main priority so that we can better exchange and coordinate information on issues facing Indian country.
As part of the Agency's priority to build strong tribal partnerships and expand the conversation on environmental justice, EPA established a National Tribal Toxics Committee (NTTC). NTTC gives tribes a forum for providing advice on the development of EPAs chemical management and pollution prevention programs that affect tribes. Given the uniqueness of tribal cultures, communities and environmental problems, the goal of the forum is to help EPA better tailor and more efficiently address a variety of issues including:
- Preventing poisoning from lead-based paint
- Expanding pollution prevention and safer chemical initiatives in Indian country
- Improving evaluation of unique chemical exposures on tribal lands.
The committee is aimed at increasing the already close collaboration and communication with federally recognized tribes and intertribal organizations on critical issues relating to chemical safety and pollution prevention that affect Native peoples.Visit the official NTTC Website hosted by the National Tribal Environmental Council

CLEVELAND -- On Monday, Cleveland City Council got a briefing on the latest movie shooting in Cleveland -- "Captain America: Winter Soldier."
On Tuesday, three council members launched a political production of their own that could be called "The Three Amigos" against Eugene Miller and Martin Sweeney.
Incumbent Jeff Johnson announced he will be a candidate to face Eugene Miller in the new Ward 10. He took out petitions at the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections.
He is being backed by and joining forces with neighboring Council members Mike Polensek and Kevin Conwell.
"We have decided to work together to help each other get elected. ...We believe, if you elect all three of us, it will be good for our neighborhoods," Johnson said.
All three council members opposed the new council reconfiguring the city into new wards.
Council President Marty Sweeney helped design a new ward for his political ally Eugene Miller.
But the map made more divisions in the Collinwood and Glenville neighborhoods.
And the spinoff impact affected council configurations downtown and on the west side.
The new arrangement puts Miller in a race against a popular incumbent, backed by two colleagues.
Councilman Mike Polensek said he and his colleagues were upset by Sweeney's disdain for leaving neighborhoods and communities intact.
The three council members pledge to reinforce each other's economic development efforts in a kind of "regional " approach within the city.
Every political action at city hall brings a reaction.
Many are watching to see what's next from Sweeney.

CANTON In three years, Shawnas Walk for Wishes at St. Lawrence University has grown and brought in more than $30,000 for St. Lawrence County children involved in the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
This year, organizers hope the 3-mile walk will be bigger than ever, bringing in thousands of dollars to make more wishes come true.
The fourth annual Shawnas Walk for Wishes will be held from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sept. 21 at the universitys Newell Fieldhouse.
The day of the walk falls on the worldwide Nickelodeon Day of Play, when Nickelodeon shuts down its stations so children will go outside and play.
Julie L. Johnson, manager of St. Lawrence Universitys Center for Civic Engagement, said the Kiwanis Club of Potsdam will sponsor a day of play at St. Lawrence University before the walk, which she hopes will bring in a larger crowd for the event.
Well be doing that and were hoping to bring in more children, so they can stay and enjoy the day of the walk with all the childrens activities, she said.
In the past, organizers focused most of the day around the walk. This year, Ms. Johnson said, they are collaborating with the schools student organizations and some of its sports teams to bring in other activities for children to participate in, such as pie tossing, face painting and tug-of-war.
Its definitely going to have a lot more activities for kids, so if the kids dont want to walk, they have a lot of stuff to keep them busy, Ms. Johnson said.
The walk began four years ago when Shawna L. Cummings told her mother, Melissa A., that she wanted to host a walk to raise money so other children like her could be granted wishes.
I like knowing that Im doing a good thing for other kids with disorders sort of like mine, Shawna said.
Shawna, 10, had a wish come true five years ago, when she and her family were flown to Orlando, Fla., to enjoy a weeks vacation at Walt Disney World.
I wanted to meet the princesses, she said. It was fun. We had lunch at the castle with them.
They really made sure she felt special from the time we left to the time we got back, Mrs. Cummings said.
Diagnosed with a rare metabolic disorder at two weeks old, Shawna has had a long journey into and out of hospitals over the past 10 years, Mrs. Cummings said.
After Shawna was granted her wish, the family was preparing for its trip to Florida when Shawnas younger brother, Zachary R., was diagnosed with a mitochondrial disorder.
Mrs. Cummings said doctors told her Zachary would live only until he was 5 years old, but hes now three years past that.
Hell be celebrating his eighth birthday the day after the walk, she said.
While all of the money raised at Shawnas walk goes to the Make-A-Wish Foundation, it goes to children in St. Lawrence County with life-threatening illnesses.
When the community comes together and raises money, its nice to know that its going to benefit the people within that area, Ms. Johnson said.
Mrs. Cummings said not only will the annual walks continue, but organizers are expanding their initiative.
Were now creating Shawnas Wishes, so we can do other fundraisers throughout the year to help spread awareness and to keep it positive, she said.

England competing in the World Cup pre-dates FIFA. The first World Cup competition was for the Sir Thomas Lipton Trophy, which was competed for in 1909 and 1911. England (in the shape of West Auckland FC) won the 1909 competition, and successfully defended it in 1911.

This is not going down well in my house. My wife is a huge Thierry Henry fan (she used to be a regular at Highbury, when she was at Uni in London), but she is also Irish. Fortunately, she can't find a way to blame me for it.

Yeah, but you have to find a way to make sure it doesn't get abused. (American) football used to have unlimited, penalty-free video reviews, and it made the games take forever. Now they have a coach's challenge; the coach may challenge the call and ask for a review, but if it turns out that the call on the field was correct, his team gets a time out taken away.

|on Monday I woke to a world covered in frost!
There's always about a week after I take down the Christmas decorations and give the flat it's after festivities clean where I constantly think about springtime coming. For this week, in my head springtime is in a few weeks.
And then the temperature here hits -6 and I realise we have a couple of months of freezing cold winter before anything approaching spring happens. There's no Christmas to look forward to, so I make my mind up to be excited about and contented with the small things.
The days are slowly lengthening. Most of my journey to work is done in daylight, and at work, I don't close the curtains on the dark outside 'til 5pm, rather than at quarter to four. On sunny days, as it gets to early afternoon, there is that beautiful goldness to the light that only happens in winter.
The flat, having first felt very bare, even with all my clutter, now feels fresh and lovely.
|The view from where I sit - the midwinter mantle, and my bright, cheery things!
|Detail from the mantle - 'TEA SET' hair pins and ring, from
Rachael of Bunny's Beads for Christmas. My friends are ace.
My sister made me a beautiful mustardy-gold hat and scarf for Christmas, and worn with my red satchel of joy, I feel bright and cheerful going out into the frosty world.
|Hat! by Hazel, the best sister ever.
Also, check how long my hair is!
I have long been a lover of hot apple juice with ginger, but have recently discovered that a lump of crystallised ginger, rather than raw, makes it sweet and warm and delicious. I have also finally learned to like herbal tea - I am particularly fond of Pukka's Three Ginger at the moment, and I have a cup of their Night Time before I go to sleep most nights. As I have two pots with infusers, I am going to experiment a bit with herbal infusions in these winter months.
|Ginger tea in my V&A mug. :)
|The living room window sill is now a window seat for reading
andtea drinking and interneting.It is much brighter and
cheerier than this-so bright that I can't get a good photo!

11 U.S. Code § 903 - Reservation of State power to control municipalities
This chapter does not limit or impair the power of a State to control, by legislation or otherwise, a municipality of or in such State in the exercise of the political or governmental powers of such municipality, including expenditures for such exercise, but—
(1) a State law prescribing a method of composition of indebtedness of such municipality may not bind any creditor that does not consent to such composition; and

Historical and Revision Notes
legislative statements
Section 903 of the House amendment represents a stylistic revision of section 903 of the Senate amendment. To the extent section 903 of the House bill would have changed present law, such section is rejected.
senate report no. 95–989
Section 903 is derived, with stylistic changes, from section 83 of current Chapter IX [section 403 of former title 11]. It sets forth the primary authority of a State, through its constitution, laws, and other powers, over its municipalities. The proviso in section 83, prohibiting State composition procedures for municipalities, is retained. Deletion of the provision would "permit all States to enact their own versions of Chapter IX [chapter 9 of former title 11]", Municipal Insolvency, 50 Am.Bankr.L.J. 55, 65, which would frustrate the constitutional mandate of uniform bankruptcy laws. Constitution of the United States, Art. I, Sec. 8.
This section provides that the municipality can consent to the court's orders in regard to use of its income or property. It is contemplated that such consent will be required by the court for the issuance of certificates of indebtedness under section 364 (c). Such consent could extend to enforcement of the conditions attached to the certificates or the municipal services to be provided during the proceedings.

A New Probiotic Gum That Fights Bad Breath and Infection!Thursday, March 11th, 2010
In Canada, a new probiotics gum has been released that allegedly banishes everything from ear aches, strep throat, to halitosis. The University of British Columbia's research contributed to the creation of this gum filled with 'good' bacteria.
These friendly bacteria, which includes approximately 500 million active Streptococcus salivarius bacteria, help to fight infection and bad breath. It can help prevent tooth decay since it stops the 'bad' bacteria from sticking to the teeth. According to sources, the gum seems like an effective way to introduce beneficial organisms to the oral cavity.
In the near future, we'll likely see toothpastes and oral rinses that carry probiotics. Also, be sure to check out Aktiv-K12's oral probiotics.

CDI: Curriculum Development Institute
A program of the Council on Social Work Education National Center for Gerontological Social Work Education, which is funded by the John A. Hartford Foundation of New York City.
The Xavier University Social Work Department is one of 46 outstanding social work education programs from across the country that has received funding to prepare all graduates to work with older adults via the Curriculum Development Institute (CDI) Program. These social work programs were selected through a competitive review process by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) National Center for Gerontological Social Work Education (Gero-Ed Center), which is funded by the John A. Hartford Foundation of New York City. The aim of the CSWE Gero-Ed Center is to prepare gerontologically-competent social workers to improve the care and well being of older adults and their families via sustainable social work education program curricular and organizational changes.
In their practice roles, nearly 75% of licensed social workers interact with older adults and their families, regardless of practice setting. Yet the majority of social workers lack the knowledge, skills, and values for effective practice with our society's growing population of older adults. This growing gap is documented in the 2008 Institute of Medicine ground-breaking report, Retooling for an Aging America: Building the Health Care Workforce, which recommends the preparation of all health care providers, including social workers, with competencies to work with older adults. Graduates of the Xavier University Social Work Department will be prepared to help address this gap, thanks to the generous funding of the Hartford Foundation, which has committed over $69 million nationwide to improve the health and quality of lives of older adults and their families.
As a result of participating in the CDI Program, the Social Work Department at Xavier received $5000 in grant funding to support faculty's competency-based curricular change planning and implementation, plus up to $2100 in travel reimbursement over 3 years. Faculty will work closely with a national mentor who advises them regarding effective strategies to increase gerontological content in their required curriculum and their organizational structure. They will also attend an annual national meeting for the next three years where they have opportunities to learn from their national peers and consult with their mentors and experts in gerontology. Based on these experiences, they will be able to design innovative ways to infuse gerontology into their foundation or required generalist curriculum and their program's structure. Additionally, teaching resources developed by the faculty will be disseminated to social work educators and researchers both nationally and globally. The social work department at Xavier is making a difference in preparing students for the rapid demographic changes facing our society. Shelagh Larkin, MSW/LISW, who is the Director for Field Education and principle faculty on the grant states,
"What I am most excited about is the opportunity to become a leader in preparing undergraduate students to meet what is being called, the "demographic mandate" for social workers to be trained to serve older adults. Our primary goal, by 2011, is to establish a comprehensive, coordinated, and competency based gero rich undergraduate BSW program across the foundation curriculum. This goal will be met through innovative curriculum development and interdisciplinary activities that fulfill not only the mission of Xavier University but also reflect the College of Social Science, Health and Education's motto: Collaborate, Innovate, Educate. The name of our program is engaging which captures the essence of the program's goals which is to engage students in an aging curriculum that is exciting and compelling thus, encouraging more BSW students to choose to work with and on behalf of older adults."

Irregular Warfare Support
Develop adaptive and agile ways and means to support irregular warfare in the current and evolving strategic environments. Support joint, interagency, and international partners who conduct irregular warfare through indirect and asymmetric approaches with solutions to erode an adversary's power, influence, and will. Identify material and non-material solutions via operational analysis, concept development, field experimentation, and spiral delivery of capabilities to defeat the motivations, sanctuaries, and enterprises of targeted state and non-state actors.
The Irregular Warfare Support Program (IWSP) builds capacity and capability for Irregular Warfare from a defense-interagency-international perspective. It develops cross-domain blended capabilities necessary to enable sustained counterterrorism and counterinsurgency operations. It develops adaptive and agile ways and means to support irregular warfare in current and evolving strategic environments. This program leverages ongoing research efforts of U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM), the military departments, Department of Defense agencies, and other federal agencies to analyze, design, prototype, and demonstrate enduring technical and operational capabilities. IWSP projects blend several disciplines including tactics, operations, doctrine, policy, information, training, and technology.
Focus Areas
Battlespace Awareness
Conduct research, operational analyses, capability design, and implementation support to enable forces to understand dispositions and intentions as well as characteristics and conditions of the threat and operational environment that bear on national, coalition, interagency, and military decision making.
Building Partner Capacity
Conduct research, operational analysis, capability design, and implementation support in order to enable the Department of Defense to assist, train, advise, and influence foreign partners, foreign competitors, adversary leaders, military like forces, and relevant populations by developing and presenting information and conducting shaping activities to affect their perceptions, will, behavior, and/or capabilities. This includes research and development that supports the conduct of communication, shaping missions, and activities, but does not include kinetic operations or maneuver of forces for the purpose of influence.
Indirect Communications Support
Conduct research, operational analysis, capability design, and implementation support within the scope of traditional military information operations to enhance and improve client organization efforts to erode adversaries' power, influence, and will through proactive and responsive informational, psychological, and other irregular operations. IWS seeks to increase the efficacy of military information operations while decreasing the likelihood of direct action environments.
Knowledge Management
Conduct research, operational analysis, capability design, and spiral experimentation support to increased U.S. and appropriate partners' understanding of hostile forces, current and evolving tactical and operational environments, and opportunities for successful irregular warfare operations.
Mission Rehearsal and Exercise
Conduct research, operational analysis, capability design, and implementation support to increase U.S. and coalition partners proficiency in, and capacity to wage, irregular warfare on target states and non-state actors. IWS seeks to further the art and science of irregular warfare operations and their understanding in the appropriate agencies, forces, and bodies of government.
Operations Integration
Conduct research, operational analysis, capability design, and implementation support to synchronize interagency, allied and coalition irregular warfare efforts. IWS refines current capabilities, assists with the definition of gaps, and develops capabilities necessary for friendly forces to prevent and prevail in future conflicts.
Pursuit and Denial
Conduct research, operational analysis, capability design, and implementation support to enable client organizations to better apply indirect and asymmetric force to identify, disrupt, deny, exploit, manipulate, and destroy hostile organizations and their supporting enterprises.
