So here's something I wrote for the Dao Bao Jing a while back. Wasn't sure if I'd write another chapter, or if it works better as just a stand alone. I can't think of a good second chapter or other topic for an interaction between these two figures, so I thought I'd just post it already. I would invite anyone interested to write a second chapter, or help me come up with ideas for one.
So here it is.
1 One morning, as the Students were swabbing the deck, the Master came out to observe their diligence. 2 And the Student approached the Master.
3 "Master, why is it that we swab the decks every day?" inquired the Student.
4 "One must always keep their ship in peak condition, ready for any storm or attack." responded the Master.
5 "But Master," the Student protested, "We live in a monastery high in the mountains."
6 "Did you think I meant a literal ship?" the Master asked rhetorically. 7 "Our ship is what holds us and carries us where we go. 8 That is what we must keep ship shape, hence the saying."
9 "But Master," the Student protested again, still confused. 10 "Our monastery is in no danger from attack or storm, is it?"
11 "You are still such a child," the Master smiled. 12 "Did you think I meant literal storms or attacks? 13 I'm an ancient venerated sage of Pastafarianism, most of what I say is going to be in metaphor or allegory. 14 Attacks are any outside source of conflict, suffering, or confusion. 15 Storms are the internal sources of these tribulations. 16 Must I spell everything out for you?"
17 "Well, it does help," the Student pointed out. 18 "But how is it that swabbing the decks of the monastery here help us to prevail in times of hardship, external or otherwise? 19 It just keeps things clean, mostly."
20 "How does it help you?" the Master exclaimed. 21 "How does it not help you! 22 It maintains tradition, reminding you of the hard life of the sea our pirate ancestors and brothers live. 23 It provides physical exercise, to keep you healthy and fit. 24 It is a means of meditation, if you let it be. 25 Most significant, though, is the discipline you gain. 26 The ability to listen to and execute orders from your elders and superiors will aide you much in this life, and the ability to listen to and execute orders from your mind and soul is an even greater asset."
27 "Master, I will gladly do as you say when there is meaning and purpose behind it." the Student offered. 28 "But I see no purpose behind our endless swabbing."
29 "You wish to know the true meaning of your labors?" the Master asked. 30 "Very well. 31 There is none. 32 Your endless swabbing accomplishes nothing measurable or cash refundable."
33 "Then why is it that we do this?" asked the Student.
34 "Discipline," the Master reiterated. 35 "If you cannot discipline yourself to accomplish a meaningless task, you will only be able to apply yourself to whatever catches your passion at any moment. 36 You will be as fickle as the wind and unable to accomplish anything. 37 If you can discipline yourself to do a task with no meaning, then you have achieved the discipline to do the most difficult of tasks. 38 After that, any pursuit you follow you will complete. 39 Through discipline of a meaningless task, you gain discipline to accomplish anything you dream of. 40 Now, have I explained everything to you clearly?"
41 "Yes, I think so" the Student answered.
42 "Good. 43 Don't make me do that again" the Master ordered. 44 "It is difficult to maintain an aura of mystical wisdom when you make me dissect my metaphors."

what do you think is the more important piece featured here: the curious (unnecessary?) re-branding of the AIDS ribbon or the flare jeans? (it's 2011, i hope i can just italicize that without an adjective for people to get what i mean) because judging on the choices you made with regard to each piece's emphasis in the photos provided, it kinda looks like you might think it's the flare jeans. ironic that on the 20th anniversary of Magic Johnson's retirement from the NBA, we see his cause reduced to a footnote for another shit-shoveled dose of self promotion; heaped on the pile - 21 comments - #dailyoutfit - #goodcauseReplyDelete
Those shoes are fabulous! And this a great cause to support. As for what Anonymous said here, I would say the jeans are amazing (your butt looks great!), and you gave plenty of service to the pin. Not that you need validation from me, but I thought I'd add my 2 cents.ReplyDelete
Happy Monday!
Love the jeans!!!! I want a pair like those, but I haven't found the right pair yetReplyDelete
check out my blog! I recently started blogging and i need your advice, since your blog is amazing!!!
Aw, Anna you look so pretty! I love your hair up like this! And that blazer is super cute!ReplyDelete
Who the hell said anything about Magic Johnson? Wouldn't she first have to mention him in order to co-opt and trivialize his cause?ReplyDelete
Besides, you'll note that she wore the ribbon, told her readers where they could purchase it and what cause went to support and said ribbon clearly visible in two of three photos.
I think she did enough - but hey, nice work hiding behind your anonymity in order to white knight for a cause that you feel strongly enough about to call into question someone else's earnest support, but not quite strong enough to comment under your own name. Keep up the good fight, Anonymous - what cause is that again? Society for the Prevention of Flare Jeans or Histrionic Internet Trolls R' Us?
I love your denim, and your style is perfect. I enjoy with your blog :) xoxoReplyDelete
hey @anon - I apologize if you don't think the cause is at the forefront enough in the post. Kenneth Cole requested that we post pictures of us wearing it and since this is a style blog, I felt it was appropriate to incorporate it into my normal outfit posts (as I did, in fact, wear it all day with that outfit). I do support AIDS awareness and would not have worn the pin (or posted pictures of me wearing it) if I didn't.ReplyDelete
Love to see you supporting such a great cause, especially with such a great outfit :) The pink lining peeking out from under the sleeve of your blazer is adorable!ReplyDelete
Great cause, and you look lovely!ReplyDelete
Perfect all around.ReplyDelete
I love fashion for a great cause. You look gorgeous in these pictures. Those jeans are exactly what I've been looking for.ReplyDelete
I like your jeans and your hair looks so cute like that!ReplyDelete
Fabulous Blazer and Fabulous Cause!! KUDOS! XOReplyDelete

Registry Etiquette
Registries are incredibly organized and helpful, and it is not "greedy" to register. Most guest find registries a very efficient way to select a gift that the couple would like, would need, and that wouldn't be duplicated by other guests. While it's okay to have more than one registry, draw the line at three. You want to be helpful by offering your guests variety, not self-indulgent by listing your every wish in the world.
It's fine to have a less traditional registry – one with gardening equipment or camping gear – but include a traditional one, too, even if it isn't very full. Many guests, especially older ones, will feel much more comfortable with a few classic options. As shower gifts are typically less expensive than wedding gifts, it might be a good idea to set up a shower registry separate from your wedding registry with lower-priced items, especially if there is a shower theme.
The best registries have a mix of both prices and types of items, so that all of your guests will feel comfortable finding something they will be excited to give you.
Just remember: in the end, the choice of gift is always up to the giver, so great-aunt Edna might still buy you a blender.

Product Test: Dog Biscuit Maker
We bought the Sunbeam Gourmet Dog Treat Maker at PetSmart for $29.99. It is a neat product that cooks up homemade dog biscuits. It comes with a recipe booklet with quite a few recipies. We made an easy one. It was wheat flour, baking powder, eggs, water and peanut butter. It took just a few minutes to mix the ingredients and then cook time was fifteen minutes.
The treats -- in the shape of dog bones -- seemed to be a big hit with all our our pet testers. No complaints. Two thumbs up for the product.

Dink Flamingo's Active Duty Hot American Soldiers Having Wild Gay Sex
This has been a long, long time coming and thanks to the guys in the AD LIVE Chatroom and to Kasey who egged it on, we finally get to see these two bottom for the very first time and what a sexy and special event it is. Things kick off with these two hunks on the bed. Kaden's in his sexy black Calvin Klein undies and Kasey is looking better than ever. These two compliment each other so much it's unreal. I read a funny text message I got from Kaden about what is about to happen as he tells me a few days earlier that he's talked to Kasey and he's really ready. I leave Cole to man the camera for the beginning of this scene and he does a spectacular job getting all the oral action before I come back to get the anal deflowering of these two hot studs. You can tell the boys are nervous as whores in church, but things soon warm up and the action begins to unfold. Kasey talks about sticking the handle of a razor up his ass to try and prepare. Kaden confesses to trying a tube of facial cleanser
i want to join them on that bed
They're both hot, but there is not chemistry what so ever.. Both like bored. And very uncomfortable.

THURSDAY: Dubinsky and the Rangers are heading to arbitration this morning and Brooks is reporting that the Rangers will argue Dubinsky should get $2.8 million while Dubinsky will shoot for $4.6 million. That figure from the Rangers is as shockingly low as the reported $5 million asking price from Dubinsky's camp was high yesterday. Again, the two sides generally shoot low or shoot high to come to a fair compromise in the middle, but based on everything we've heard it would be a big surprise if the ruling doesn't put Dubinsky's salary close to his $4.6 million request. Curiously the Rangers chose to ask for a one-year deal rather than the two years they were entitled to, meaning Dubinsky could be an RFA once again next summer. Perhaps the Blueshirts and Dubinsky have already agreed that if he has another big year the team will reward him with a handsome long-term deal. That's a little tough to believe in this situation because it's hard to imagine Dubinsky having much faith in the Rangers regarding contract negotiations at this point, but like with many of the reports surrounding these negotiations, electing for a one-year deal is a confusing move. We may not get word of the arbitrator's ruling until tomorrow or Monday, but we'll post updates as they come.
WEDNESDAY: Brooks believes that the money, not the years, is
causing friction between the Rangers and Dubinsky in advance of tomorrow's
arbitration hearing. Brooks reports that Dubinsky is seeking at least $5
million while the Rangers are unwilling to advance past $4.5 million. As
valuable as Dubinsky is, there's no way he's worth $5 million. The
Rangers simply can't give him that much, if only for the simple reason that
Ryan Callahan will use Dubinsky's new deal as a starting point for his own
arbitration case next week. It seems as though this is definitely heading
to arbitration, so it makes sense for Dubinsky to ask for an unrealistically
high number. He knows he'll have to come down a bit and meet the Rangers
in the middle, which should net him in the neighborhood of $4.5 million to
$4.75 million. Yesterday's report that Dubinsky wanted more years than
the Rangers would give was puzzling and Brooks' report makes more sense.
Though this will be settled eventually, Dubinsky has seemed to have had a
high opinion of his worth in recent years and may be difficult to retain as a UFA in two years.
TUESDAY: The NY Post's Larry Brooks reports that the Rangers are closing in
on a deal with UFA defenseman Steve Eminger. It has long been suspected that the
Blueshirts would add a veteran defenseman to fill in on the bottom pair and rotate
in and out of the lineup and though intriguing options like Scott Hannan and
Brent Sopel remain available, Eminger may be the best choice. The 27-year-old played well for most of last
year with the team, knows the Rangers' system and has befriended many
Blueshirts. He isn't the most talented
player in the NHL, but in a supporting role Eminger has proven that he can
succeed in New York. Eminger is interested in a return to
Broadway, so the delay in the signing may be linked to negotiations with RFAs
Artem Anisimov, Mike Sauer, Brian Boyle, Ryan Callahan and Brandon Dubinsky
over the last few weeks rather than haggling with Eminger over years or
dollars. With just Callahan and Dubinsky
still un-signed, the Rangers have a more accurate image of their budget and may
now feel comfortable committing to Eminger. The team will have plenty of money to spare even if Callahan and
Dubinsky get contracts at the high-end of speculated numbers, so Eminger can be
added without the worry of being unable to afford either of the team's two
young forwards. Sounds like we could see
an agreement reached with Eminger this week.
- Dubinsky's arbitration hearing is scheduled for Thursday but
thus far there hasn't been much reason to believe he'll re-sign before heading
to court. Jesse Spector of the Daily News reports that the Blueshirts
and Dubinsky are close financially, but Dubinsky
wants a longer deal than the Rangers are offering. This is curious because oftentimes it's the
player that wants to reach unrestricted free agency while still in his prime in
order to cash in while the team tries to avoid letting the player hit the open
market. It's possible that Dubinsky is
seeking a Jeff Carter-like deal that would keep him in blue for the next
decade, but that seems unlikely. Perhaps
Dubinsky wants something like five years while the Rangers are inclined to
offer only three, but a squabble over something small like that would seem
solvable. Spector indicates that there
is a major discrepancy over years which makes this confusing. It's also possible that the Rangers are prepared
to pay Dubinsky now, but aren't convinced of his long-term future with the team
and are only willing to invest in the 25-year-old for two or three years. If Rangers' brass are thinking way ahead,
perhaps they believe another left winger, like Chris Kreider, might be more
deserving of top-line LW money down the road than Dubinsky will be. That's all speculation as we have nothing
solid to go by, but it is very curious that the sides are close on money but
that Dubinsky wants more years than the Rangers want to give. If Dubinsky isn't re-signed before his
arbitration hearing, the Rangers will most likely elect for a two-year deal to
be determined on Thursday,
- The team's other remaining RFA, Ryan Callahan, isn't
scheduled to go to arbitration until July 28. Spector and Brooks both report that discussions between the Rangers and
Callahan haven't happened recently, but Callahan's agent, Steve Bartlett,
understands "there's
a pecking order;" that New York
must deal with Dubinsky first before handling Callahan's negotiations. It'd be nice to have Callahan signed by now
but there's still no danger that he won't be re-signed and it could still
happen before his arbitration hearing. Once Dubinsky's contract is sorted out, possibly this week, things with
Callahan could progress quickly.

However, if it is possible it is best to hide the URL in the href property of the  tag and have the link text be of the form doi:10.5284/1000190. The HTML for this would look like:
doi:10.5284/1000190

Jim Golden's PocketWizard I Spy
If there were a king of Things Organized Neatly, Portland-based photographer Jim Golden would almost certainly be it. There are at least two PocketWizard radios amongst all that camera gear. Can you find them?
His meticulously-designed still life compositions can often take up to ten hours just to set up. We asked him about this mother-of-all-camera-collections image. Here's what he had to say:
"It contains over 190 cameras, lenses and accessories and is a compilation of 20 people's cameras collections from the Portland, Oregon area. It took roughly ten hours to layout and shoot."

Judge James C. Dever III, the federal judge slated to handle the sentencing of former House Speaker Jim Black, has stepped aside.He cited the public's need for closure and said reassigning the case to another judge would be in the people's best interest. While a private practice attorney, Dever sued Black and other state officials on behalf of state Republican leaders. His impartiality has been questioned by Black and others.

High Value Data
We have prioritized our first two sets of digital content to be repurposed via an Application Programming Interface, or API, to improve the delivery of our eServices. While API may be a foreign term to some, anyone who has ever shared a photo from Instagram to Facebook, embedded a Slideshare presentation in LinkedIn, or put a YouTube video on a blog, has taken advantage of an API.
We actively engaged with customers to make this selection, by collecting feedback from them both directly and indirectly on the services we provide. This information was and continues to be collected on an ongoing basis using many different methods. In the past, we've used open participation surveys, via various GSA websites, for public evaluations of communications, products, and services. Currently, customer satisfaction survey tools capture feedback from customers regarding our online services. In addition, Data.gov and other GSA website web metrics data provide further action-based insight into what data and services are of most value to, or most highly sought by, our customers.
The following data sets have been made available as APIs:

To all the earthy copper, radiant gold and boldly bronze beauty products out there, we'd like to say: thank you for being a friend. While these items don't give us sassy advice like Sophia Petrillo, quip sarcastically a la Dorothy Zbornak, share flirty banter like Blanche Devereaux, or make us laugh like Rose Nylund does, they do make us look incredibly gorgeous--always a good thing. They're also part of a stunning trend that's both easy to execute and universally flattering, two additional attributes that we hold in high esteem. If you haven't incorporated these hot metallic hues into your summer beauty routine, we highly suggest you do so at once, which is why we've rounded up all the necessities you need to get that golden girl look! One thing's for sure: these products give a whole new meaning to "friends with benefits."
Chanel Illusion D'Ombre Long Wear Luminous Eyeshadow ($36) in Ebloui
This new product from the beauty greats at Chanel is truly worth tracking down. The shadow comes in an array of stunning colors and has an incredibly soft texture, so it blends like a dream. Peter Philips, the Creative Director of Chanel Makeup, suggests forgoing a brush and simply using your fingers to apply the shadow, an excellent idea indeed. However, if your digits freak you out, don't fuss because Chanel includes a tiny brush in the box too.
Cover Girl Queen Collection Eye Shadow ($3) in Sun City
If you're looking for the most gorgeous, shimmering gold shadow, you simply must check out this stunning shade from Cover Girl. Brilliantly burnished, this eye shadow looks lovely on its own or mixed with deeper bronze tones.
Guerlain Terracotta Loose Powder Kohl Liner ($36) in 02 Brun
Every summer, the Guerlain team comes up with some new variation on kohl eyeliner that we simply must buy and this year we're obsessed with their Loose Powder Kohl Liner. Available in three shades, our favorite is the rich bronzed brown, which is a bit easier to wear than traditional black.
Milani Cosmetics Color Streaks ($7, select CVS stores)
We love any product that will change our hair color a bit without damaging it, so we're totally enthused by this hair highlighter by Milani. The brush-on formula is applied via a mascara wand--clever, no?--and provides just the right amount of golden shimmer to your hair. We'll be wearing this on our next GNO...
China Glaze Crackle Glaze Nail Lacquer ($7) in Tarnished Gold
Everyone knows about China Glaze's amazing crackle nail polishes, but did you know that the brand also makes them in metallic hues too? There are six new-for-summer lacquers, including the gorgeous gold shown above, which we'd wear over a khaki green polish, like NARS' Nail Polish ($17) in Desperado or Chanel's Le Vernis Nail Color ($25) in Peridot.
Revlon Nail Enamel ($5) in Copper Penny
The warmer, copper polish shown above is one of Revlon's best new hues and definitely the perfect pick to go with your (hopefully faux) summer tan. It's an excellent pick for a party, especially if you're planning on wearing a brightly colored disco dress!
Dolce & Gabbana Classic Cream Lipstick ($30) in #110 Bronze
With the exception of some experimentation in middle school, generally we don't wear lipstick that can be categorized as "brown," but this bronze has totally changed our minds. It has lovely wine undertones, which makes it quite flattering, and we'd wear it lightly blotted, so it's almost like a lip stain.
Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion ($19) in Sin
Technically, this is a primer for your lids, to be applied before putting on shadow, but we think it looks gorgeous just on its own. Use it as a primer, shadow, or even a highlighter, this slightly shimmering product is another out-of-the-ball-park hit from Urban Decay.
MAC Mineralize Eye Shadow ($20) in Faux Gold
The moment we pulled this beautifully swirled shadow out of its box, the office seemed to let out a collective coo. This collective response makes sense, as this baked mineral shadow has an assortment of gorgeous shades in it, including coral, gold, lime, and bronze. The shadow builds beautifully, making it easy to create the perfect terracotta eye!
Revlon Satin Luxurious Color Eyeshadow ($5) in Shimmering Sienna
While we love a golden shadow, we also love something a little darker and more mysterious, like this standout shade from Revlon. It has just a hint of sheen to it and the dark bronze color is so chic it will make you feel like a Mediterranean knockout, even if you're nothing of the sort.
NARS Laguna Body Illuminator ($45)
If you're a fan of NARS' award-winning face illuminators, the brand's beloved Body Glow, or simply want to look like a Tahitian goddess, you simply must check out this limited-edition Laguna Body Illuminator. It gives your skin the most heavenly bronzed hue, perfect for those days when you want your skin to really glow. Best of all, though it's easy to wash off, it won't transfer onto your clothes--yet another reason why this is product is a must-buy!
Bonne Bell Eye Shadow Stick ($3.50) in Bronze Shimmer
Our final selection is also a thrifty thrill: Bonne Bell's Eye Shadow Stick. It has a delightfully soft formula that easily glides over your lids--a rare feat for most pencil shadows--plus the color is simply spot-on. Better snap one up now before your WhoWhatWear.com editors buy them all...!

CAPE COD, MA–The Vermont Shamrocks U-16 girl's team won the Cape Cod Classic this past weekend, beating a host of teams from the Northeast Region of the United States, including the U-19 Shamrock team from Vermont.
They opened the tournament with a win over the Connecticut Northern Lights, who according to sources, featured a coaching staff a parental group that were beyond awful in their demeanor.
Former Shamrock Salley Hoer said hello to her old teammates in game two as Vermont faced off against the Cranston Reds.
The green and white won the contest decisively 4-1.
They put up another four goals in their next game against the Barnstable Raiders, winning easily 4-0.
If you thought the Northern Lights were a rough group, they were tame compared the team the Shamrocks faced next, the Albany Ice Cats.
To give you an idea of what kind of players the Ice Cats were, the scoreboard had two ten minute majors and two minors under their name as the game drew to a close.
Vermont earned another shut-out in the 2-0 win, and Albany earned another penalty after the game when a player decided to showcase her profanity skills to the referee.
Game five was the highest scoring match of the tournament for the girls.
They once again gave up no goals while putting a five-spot on the board against the Boston Breakers.
This brought them to the championship game against the U-19 Shamrocks.
With the score 1-1 after regulation time, the two teams headed to overtime, but the extra session yielded no results.
So it was on to the shoot-out where the U-16 girls edged out U-19's 2-1 to pick up the win.
A funny note about the tourney itself; A week prior to the start, seven teams from the U-16 division called and canceled for various reasons.
When asked by the tournament director what he would like to do, Coach Burke had his team put in the U-19 bracket, which seemed to suit the team just fine.
As for the local players competing for the Shamrocks, Taylor Morley, Corrina Cota and Whitney Bernier will trade in the green and white for maroon and blue as pre-season workouts begin this week for the 2012-2013 winter sports season.
The Express will begin it's winter previews in the coming days, so be on the lookout to find out how your favorite teams are shaping up for the upcoming season

Menhaden Management Updates
3/19/2013 | Posted by lfegleyTags: Commercial
The Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (ASMFC) has recently adopted Amendment 2 to the Interstate Fishery Management Plan for Atlantic Menhaden. This plan establishes a menhaden quota for Maryland that is equal to 1.37% of the total coast-wide quota (5.12 million pounds for 2013, based on Maryland's average harvest between 2009 and 2011). Maryland is required to submit an implementation plan to ASMFC before April 15th. This plan will be reviewed by the Menhaden Management Board at the May meeting of ASMFC in Alexandria, Virginia.
Therefore, Maryland will not receive final approval of its plan, until May. Here are the implementation requirements from ASMFC and an informational document. We will continue to post updates on this website as things progress.

"The items in the box went over really well with the troops here. It really boosted the spirits of the guys, especially after the Holidays. I would like to thank you for all the hard work and dedication to helping make life for us over here a little better. We are located in a FOB that does not have a lot of amenities so these packages mean a lot to us." - SSG Eric J Price
"I just want to say bravo, you guys did it with the package. I got them tonight and they are all gone. I loved it and the soldiers loved it even more. My cooks are going to put the decorations up for the Super Bowl." - SFC Pruitt
Aimed at bringing holiday cheer to troops stationed in Areas of Responsibility (AoR), the USO has developed the Holiday Box program.
The newest USO program bundles fun items that help servicemen and women celebrate holidays and occasions in remote locations that do not have access to traditional USO centers. Decorations to brighten encampments in the spirit of the specific season are just the start to a package that supplies 50 troops and truly gives soldiers a sense of home. Each box also has edible treats, banners, greeting cards and a connection home like a video camera and DVDs to send messages home.
From scary movies for Halloween to tasty treats for the winter holidays, these deliveries work off of recommendations from troops in the field. There are four separate boxes: Valentine's Day/Football; Memorial Day/Summer/Fourth of July; Halloween/Thanksgiving and Winter (with Christmas and Hanukah add-ons). See a sampling of the contents of each USO Holiday Box.
To request this program or to learn more information, please contact a USO representative.
Your tax-deductible donation can provide USO Holiday Boxes so that troops can fill their tents and living quarters with elements of home.
We would love to hear from you.

The notion of performing research as an undergraduate student can be a bit intimidating. But doing research as an undergraduate can help you discover your hidden talents and interests. Research projects can also lead to scholarships and awards. Plus, it looks good on a resume or graduate school application
EE Student Working in the Discovery Hall 3-D Printing Lab
UW Bothell's Office of Research has merit awards for students participating in undergraduate research. These awards allow students to focus more attention and time on their research. To learn about applying, click here.
The Undergraduate Research Database is a place where faculty will post research opportunities for students. To view these opportunities, click here. Also coming soon, new undergraduate kiosks which will be located throughout campus.
Here are some tips to help you get started in the world of research.
Talk to faculty
"Chat up your faculty members," says Linda Watts, professor in the School of Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences (IAS). "It's not hard to get us talking, especially if you ask about our research." Most faculty members are involved in some type of research; don't be shy.
"The sooner you realize you might be interested in pursuing research opportunities, the more possibilities open up to you," Watts says. Student Brendan Mclane noted that "once you do some research, you find there is an audience beyond these walls who are interested in what you are excited about. There are opportunities out there."
"All students can do research if they want to," says Julie Shayne, a lecturer in IAS. "We have amazing resources both at our campus and at the Seattle campus. There are many places to submit papers, attend symposia and compete for awards. The opportunities are available and our faculty members are very willing to work with students."
"Research is an 'unstructured beast' that requires the ability to clearly define problems," says Gwen Ottinger, assistant professor in IAS. "At the beginning of the research process, the only thing I have on a student is more experience of breaking things down. The only way to get that experience is by doing it hands-on."
"You're not going to ever know everything," Mclane says. "Sometimes you feel like you have to. Don't be intimidated."
Seven out of seven panelists agree: the librarian is your best friend and resource when it comes to performing research. "The library workshops are very helpful," Mclane says. "I founds great tools to use and the librarians are amazing."
"My first ideas were huge and vague," says Chris McRae, who won a Mary Gates Scholarship for his research on veterans. "Think of something you can do in a year." If you don't want to start from scratch, McRae recommends students ask to participate in a faculty member's research project. "You don't have to do all the back-breaking work yourself."

El Nino, Global Warming, and Anomalous U.S. Winter Warmth
The second conundrum with this explanation is that, while El Nino typically does perturb the winter Northern Hemisphere jet stream in a way that favors anomalous warmth over much of the northern half of the U.S., the typical amplitude of the warming (see Figure below right) is about 1C (i.e., about 2F). The current anomaly is roughly five times as large as this. One therefore cannot sensibly argue that the current U.S. winter temperature anomalies are attributed entirely to the current moderate El Nino event.
Indeed, though the current pattern of winter U.S. warmth looks much more like the pattern predicted by climate models as a response to anthropogenic forcing (see Figure below left) than the typical 'El Nino' pattern, neither can one attribute this warmth to anthropogenic forcing. As we are fond of reminding our readers, one cannot attribute a specific meteorological event, an anomalous season, or even (as seems may be the case here, depending on the next 2 months) two anomalous seasons in a row, to climate change. Moreover, not even the most extreme scenario for the next century predicts temperature changes over North America as large as the anomalies witnessed this past month. But one can argue that the pattern of anomalous winter warmth seen last year, and so far this year, is in the direction of what the models predict.
In reality, the individual roles of deterministic factors such as El Nino, anthropogenic climate change, and of purely random factors (i.e. "weather") in the pattern observed thusfar this winter cannot even in principle be ascertained. What we do know, however, is that both anthropogenic climate change and El Nino favor, in a statistical sense, warmer winters over large parts of the U.S. When these factors act constructively, as is the case this winter, warmer temperatures are certainly more likely. Both factors also favor warmer global mean surface temperatures (the warming is one or two tenths of a degree C for a moderate to strong El Nino). It is precisely for this reason that some scientists are already concluding, with some justification, that 2007 stands a good chance of being the warmest year on record for the globe.
A few other issues are worthy of comment in the context of this discussion. A canard that has already been trotted out by climate change contrarians (and unfortunately parroted uncritically in some media reports) holds that weather in certain parts of the U.S. (e.g. blizzards and avalanches in Colorado) negates the observation of anomalous winter warmth. This argument is disingenuous at best. As clearly evident from the figure shown above, temperatures for the first month of this winter have been above normal across the United States (with the only exceptions being a couple small cold patches along the U.S./Mexico border). The large snowfall events in Boulder were not associated with cold temperatures, but instead with especially moisture-laden air masses passing through the region. If temperatures are at or below freezing (which is true even during this warmer-than-average winter in Colorado), that moisture will precipitate as snow, not rain. Indeed, snowfall is often predicted to increase in many regions in response to anthropogenic climate change, since warmer air, all other things being equal, holds more moisture, and therefore, the potential for greater amounts of precipitation whatever form that precipitation takes.

|New Watauga HS Tennis Courts may be moved
|Written by Lauren Ohnesorge
|Tuesday, 12 June 2007 08:48
New plans indicate tennis courts may be moved from their proposed location of 2.6 acres between Delmar and Spruce streets to the southern portion of the property.Instead, 57 parking spaces may occupy the tract. The proposal comes from neighbors' negative reactions to the proposed tennis courts at a recent public hearing. Area residents worried the original proposed placement would negatively affect their neighborhood. The proposal was made at an intergovernmental retreat between Watauga County Commissioners, Board of Education, Boone Town Council, Blowing Rock Town Council, Seven Devils Town Council and Appalachian State University.

We have already known for some time that AT&T was planning to upgrade its 3G network in a big way over the coming months but many industry insiders did not figure the upgrade would be as big of an improvement as tech websites Engadget and Gizmodo are reporting. At a recent Reuters event in New York City AT&T's Operations CEO John Stankey mentioned that AT&T is going to more than double the speeds of its current 7.2 Mbps 3G network by the end of the year.
While AT&T has made significant improvements to their network in the past few months it is not expected to reach speeds anywhere near T-Mobile's 21Mbps network. Although I am sure that many Unlocked Quickfire AT&T customers would be delighted if the network were to reach speeds of 14.4Mbps as expected by this announcement.
AT&T's network is notorious for being spotty and slow in major cities. If this latest announcement is accurate AT&T's network should see a great improvement and users of their 3G network will be greeted with a much better user experience. With Sprint set to come out with their 4G network in the coming months AT&T had to do something to address their sometimes shaky 3G network. This improvement that is expected to double the speeds of their network is better than expected. If AT&T is able to double the speed of their 3G network I would expect more people to purchase Unlocked Smartphone with this cellular network leader. Their upgraded network would be one of the best in the United States if this plan actually comes to fruition. Hopefully they can complete this upgrade ahead of schedule so we do not have to wait until the end of the year to see these increased speeds.

When you're shopping for insurance, you might receive Ohio homeowners insurance quotes from three or more agents. That's smart shopping, but it's not the last time you should check on the cost of your insurance policy, or to determine exactly what it covers. Your insurance needs change over time. If you consult with your insurance agent as your situation changes, you can adjust the coverage and price of your insurance without going through the process of getting additional Ohio homeowners insurance quotes from https://ohioinsurancequotes.net/ohio-homeowners-insurance-quotes/.
One common occurrence that merits a talk with your insurance agent is the addition of an expensive piece of jewelry. If you receive an expensive piece of jewelry as an anniversary, Christmas, or Valentine's Day gift, you should make sure it's insured for its full value by your homeowner's policy. Claims for the loss or theft of jewelry are very common, so it pays to ask your insurance agent to include coverage for your new jewelry when you receive your yearly Ohio homeowners insurance quotes. Better still, you should call your agent as soon as you acquire any notable piece of jewelry to make sure it's appropriately covered under your existing policy.
Typical Ohio homeowners insurance quotes include a small amount of coverage for jewelry, typically only $1,000. This number can be subject to a large deductible if it's the only item on a claim, making it even more difficult to replace if it goes missing. There are two easy ways to add additional coverage for jewelry. If you forward a copy of a receipt or appraisal of an expensive piece of jewelry to your insurance agent, it can be listed along with your overall home inventory. The coverage limits can also be raised, which generally only costs a few dollars more per year.
The second way to ensure that your important jewelry is covered is by taking out additional policies. Umbrella insurance policies can offer you additional loss limits over standard homeowners policies. You can also purchase what is called an Inland Marine Floater. This is an endorsement on an existing insurance account that can be applied to homeowners or renters insurance to cover what is usually termed a mysterious disappearance. This is especially useful for expensive jewelry, which can be lost by a mishap like accidentally washing it down the drain, or having the stone fall out of the setting without the wearer noticing it until it's too late to find it.

McLEOD COUNTY, Minn. - Harmon, a three-week-old baby eagle, is back in his nest after being treated at the University of Minnesota's Raptor Center.
The eaglet was taken down from his nest Friday after one of his wings got stuck in a corner. His wing was wounded so badly it became infected with maggots. Dr. Julia Ponder executive director of Raptor Center said if they didn't intervene Harmon would have died.
"This (wound) is not completely healed. But it's closed over. It's scabbed over. We're not as worried about the flies getting in there," Ponder said.
What she is worried about is getting Harmon back to his parents. Time is critical because eagles typically abandon the nest after 48 hours without their young.
On Sunday a team brought Harmon back to the nest. Harmon's parents were about a mile away watching closely. One of them even flew around the team. As of Sunday night Harmon's parents have not returned to the nest. But Ponder said it is a good sign they are still in the area.
"We'll have to see what happens but the place in the world for him is for two parents to take care of him," she said.
It could take hours before Harmon's parents return to the nest possibly even up to a day. If they don't return Harmon may be in trouble again.
Minnesota Bound, who is hosting the Live Eagle Cam, said if the parents do not return they will re-group and see what to do next.

Yep, netscape fonts are pretty bad. For netscape font setting I use:
variable width font: Helvetica (Adobe) size 12
fixed width font: Courier (Adobe) size 12
Doing the following will help some:
Create a text file in your home directory called .Xresources
Note the period ----------------------^
open the filemanager, right click, create new, text file
name is .Xresources
open the .Xresources file and add these three lines, save the changes
Netscape*documentFonts.sizeIncrement: 20
Netscape*documentFonts.xResolution*iso-8859-1: 100
Netscape*documentFonts.yResolution*iso-8859-1: 100
You will have to logout/login for these changes to take effect.
If you want even larger fonts you can change the 100.
Like you said alot of the documentation out there is outdated and not RedHat specific. It's possible some of the changes you made won't work on a RedHat system. I would have to know more about exactly what you tried. You might consider upgrading the version of Mozilla that came with RH 7.1 and use it instead of netscape. The Mozilla >=0.9.0 have been working great. You can download the latest version at:
You don't have to download all the rpms, just the ones to upgrade what you have now. Too see what Mozilla rpms are on your system now, type this at any console prompt:
$rpm -qa | grep mozilla
After you download the new rpms, to install them change to the directory where the new rpms are then as the root user:
$rpm -Fvh mozilla*.rpm
If you haven't already you might look at this article on using RPM
KDE 2.1.1 apps doesn't display some fonts correctly kmail and knode and good for this. In kmail, from the menu, Message/Set encoding, changing it from auto to the font setting you use helps alot. Your probably using ISO 8859-1. You can do the same thing with knode.
The upcoming RedHat 7.2 is supposed to have even better support for truetype fonts. ;D

The way we see it, lingerie can go one of two ways: purposely provocative or angelically sweet. While we certainly enjoy both, lately we've gravitated towards the latter and believe you should too this Valentine's Day. What is the look exactly? Think: subtly sexy silhouettes in spring's palette-cleansing pastels. Naturally, the delicate confections on the S/S 12 runways serve as the perfect inspiration, specifically Calvin Klein Collection's Nude Silk Crepe Pleated Panel Dress ($5995, 212.292.9000) with Silk Crepe Fluted Hem Camisole ($1495, 212.292.9000) and Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti's mint green Lace Halterneck Dress ($1195, 212.460.5500). With those ladylike pieces fresh in our mind, we gathered a heavenly assortment of underpinnings, all with a similar vintage boudoir spirit. So whether you decide on a pretty bra and panty set or opt for a seductive slip, today's installment of WWW Picks is filled with pieces sure to leave a lasting impression!
1. Calvin Klein Perfectly Fit Push-Up Bra ($38) and Bikini w/ Lace ($15) in Ivory w/ Bellini Lace Trim
For skivvies that are inviting, but not overly complicated, Calvin Klein is our go-to label. Currently, we're all about the look of the Fit Push-Up Bra and matching Bikini. Though relatively straightforward, they have a sweetly girlish charm in the form of blush pink trim. Bonus points for their truly comfortable fit!
2. Affinitas Julia Bustier ($50) and Thong ($15) in Champagne Beige
One of the things we love most about this champagne bustier and thong set is its understated sex appeal. Though sultry in design-the top's boning instantly whittles the waistline, while contour cups accentuate the bust-feminine details, like ruffled trim and a satin bow, keep the separates looking chic and innocent.
3. Eberjey Anouk Underwire Bra ($53) and Boy-Thong ($35) in Shitake
In case you didn't already know, Eberjey is responsible for creating some of the most flattering and irresistible lingerie available. We love everything from their fancy teddies to their stylish slip dresses, but right now we're committed to the naughty-meets-nice spirit of the Anouk Bra and Thong. Though the set oozes ladylike charm with tiny pink bows and scalloped trim, it's still completely seductive, thanks to the intricate sheer lace. Pretty to you and sexy to him-now that's the perfect kind of lingerie!
4. Julianna Rae Silk Tresor Chemise ($189) in French Vanilla
If your taste in lingerie veers a bit more traditional, we suggest investing in a timeless slip dress instead, like Julianna Rae's Silk Tresor Chemise. With a thigh-grazing hemline, this incredibly soft nightgown offers just the right amount of coverage, while still maintaining a beautiful and luxurious look.
5. Brulee Vamp Soft Bra ($118) and Boy Short ($72) in Silver w/ Cream
For those of you who fancy slightly sporty silhouettes, definitely check out Brulee's Vamp Soft Bra and matching Boy Shorts. We're enamored with the minimalist look of these silky knickers, which are available in this gorgeous silver and cream mix as well as five other delightful combinations. Of course we're also fond of the peek-a-boo sheer mesh accent on the bottoms-a feature your admirer will surely appreciate too!
6. Lola Haze Daisy Teddy ($139) in Light Blue
The Daisy Teddy by Lola Haze might just be our most beloved piece in today's story-and for good reason! It's perfectly sheer and comes in the prettiest shade of pale blue. We also quite like the ruffled detailing on the bodice, as it brings an extra element of softness and femininity to the bodysuit. Consider this teddy, which manages to appear both seductive and elegant, a must-buy.
7. Undrest Silk Chiffon Triangle Bralette ($180, 310.360.0055) and Tap Shorts w/ Chantilly Lace Trim ($180, 310.360.0055) in French Pink
If you're aiming to look provocative in a sweet way, we've got just the lingerie for you: Undrest's Silk Chiffon Triangle Bralette and Tap Shorts. Slip into these slinky, flirtatious separates with contrasting lace trim after a hard day at the office and you'll instantly feel chic all evening long. Though perfect for a night in, we think the bralette would also look lovely worn during the day peeking out from underneath a slip dress.-Jessica Baker
