Draft Pick: 2010 4th Round, Pick 7, 97th Overall
Born: 9/3/90
From: Trail, BC
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 184 lbs.
Shoots: Left
Position: Left Wing
FWIW, 2009-10 Playoffs: 16GP, 12+12=24, 12PIM
Formerly of the Vancouver Giants of the WHL where he played with Milan Lucic and Evander Kane, Cunningham was ranked 108th amongst North American skaters by NHL Central Scouting before the draft. He won the President's Cup and Memorial Cup with Vancouver back in 2007 and since then has only improved, taking advantage of extra playing time and better linemates as players like Kane and James Wright graduated to the NHL. In his final season, Cunningham was a unanimous WHL First-Team selection and a nominee for WHL Player of the Year.
He doesn't have much of a physical presence but is known to fight through checks and work during his TOI. He also cobbled together at least 5 fighting majors in 2 seasons, according to http://www.hockeyfig...ockeyfights.com, including one against the gargantuan Tyler Myers. It is unclear how Cunningham projects and I honestly don't know how well his scoring abilities will translate to NHL. He's a versatile player and has played some center in his career, so he could offer a scoring touch and some flexibility to an energy line somewhere down the line, but from what I've read it seems unlikely he'll ever be a top-4 winger.
International Scouting Services in April 2010:
Cunningham has slid under the radar of ISS Western scouts most of the season -- that is until now. He enjoyed a terrific season, pulling up great offensive numbers at a more than point-per-game pace. With his quick shot and smart play with the puck he has continued to show strong finish and consistency around the net, capitalizing on his chances. His size isn't a concern and his heart/passion is a bonus.
Feature piece by Trans World Sport on the Vancouver Giants, including an interview with Cunningham beginning at 5:32 (You can also see him get dumped on his ass at 7:10)

...the word "good" can be found throughout Blair's scouting notes in my Word doc: good command of a 87-92 FB (93 peak) with good sink; good 74-78 CB; 81-85 CU thrown with good looking arm action; good, sturdy frame (6-5, 220 pounds); good numbers (8.42 K/9 in 2011, 9.04 K/9 and 3.37 FIP in 2012). If you didn't know any better, you'd think Blair is a pretty darn good prospect...
"When Aaron came to Marshall, he was primarily a fastball-curveball guy," Marshall pitching coach Joe Renner said. "And I think the thing that's really improved the most and has become a really good pitch for him is the changeup. It's a swing-and-miss pitch for him, it doesn't matter if it's a righthanded hitter or a lefthanded hitter. It's got a lot of late, sinking action on it and when you add that third pitch to the mix, it makes it tough on hitters. For me, that's been the biggest thing because he's always had pretty good command. It's gotten better as he's gotten older. His velo has improved as he's gotten stronger. Each year, he's just gotten a little bit better."

8/29 Rizzo gets breather
Cubs rookie first baseman Anthony Rizzo did not start Wednesday to give him a chance to work with hitting coach James Rowson and get back on track. Rizzo was batting .211 (8-for-38) in his last 11 games with one double as his only extra-base hit and three RBIs.
"He's not feeling right at the plate and it's snowballing a little bit now so you want to stop that from snowballing any further and let him kick back and work with [Rowson] today and get things ironed out," Cubs manager Dale Sveum said.
Part of the problem, Sveum said, is Rizzo may be "thinking too much and trying to do too much all the time instead of just letting it happen."
Rizzo was the National League Rookie of the Month in July, batting .330 with seven home runs and 17 RBIs in 25 games. He's hit one home run in August.
"Who knows the reason why," Sveum said of the dropoff in power numbers. "To me, it's more a young man who got here and was obviously on top of the world and doing everything, and unfortunately, sometimes in this game, if you try to tell some young guys that for some reason, when you're going good, you're putting yourself in line for a slump sometimes. Why that happens is a million dollar question in hitting — why all of a sudden you're on top of the world and the next day you feel like you're on ice skates in the batter's box. That's why you give guys day off and give them a chance to regroup."
— Carrie Muskat

as long as his timing is on then movement is fine. When and if he would hit a slump , sure that would be the first thing to change. You'll notice with Rizzo his hand placement is a little lower which is one reason he has such quick hands.
barnay is only bright spot in horrible season…..come on epstein….so something
I believe your wife is going crazy that you are still watching the Cubs at this point of the season.
frame by frame….really? Time to get a new hobby.
All we do is make innocent comments and state our opinions….why must there be such criticism toward how a CUB FAN (we are ALL Cub fans, that may be our ONLY common thread!) ENJOYS viewing a Cub game? I took it as ONE at bat was watched frame by frame…out of curiosity NOT Obsession. It is not up to any of us to detrmine if a fellow Cubs fan's spouse is going crazy…it's NOT LITERAL. Geez, a grain of salt would do us some all good. I hope Mamma Mia and the "crazy wife" continue to enjoy the Cubs' games in whatever fashion they choose. The invitation to "chime-in" was not an invitation to criticize HOW fans choose to BE A FAN, but to opine regarding RIZZO'S BATTING STANCE/STYLE. I'll chime-in…I agree Mamma, Rizzo's style can be a little unsettling with all is "wriggling" and "movement". Not to be criticized because he still hits well, it's just unusual and begs for raised eyebrows, tha's about it.

BENCH WARRANT - MASSENA - Village police picked up Jesse A. Mashaw, 22, of Parker Avenue, Massena, on a bench warrant late Thursday afternoon. He was arraigned by Massena Town Justice Gerald P. Sharlow and sent to the St. Lawrence County Correctional Facility with bail set at $2,500 cash or $5,000 bond.
The warrant alleged Mashaw had failed to appear in Massena court as directed.
Mashaw had pleaded guilty in Dec. 1,2010 to endangering the welfare of a child in a plea bargain agreement that satisfied two other endangering charges and three counts of third-degree sexual abuse.
He failed to show for scheduled pre-sentence imnvestigation interviews on Dec. 15, 2010 and Dec. 23, 2010 and did not appear in Massena Village Court on Jan. 23, 2011, his scheduled sentencing date before Massena Village Justice Eric J. Gustasfson. The bench warrant was signed on April 23.
Mashaw was charged after he allegedly had sexual contact with a 14-year-old female on two occasions in June and one occasion in July 2010. I thought she was 15, not that it makes it any less wrong, he noted in a statement he signed for police.
DISORDERLY CONDUCT - MASSENA - Village police charged Joshua M. Dion, 22, of 2 Willow St., Apt. 204, Massena, with disorderly conduct and discharging his weapon from a window at 10:30 p.m. Thursday on Willow Street.
Police said they responded to a complaint of a suspicious person at Fay Motors on Willow Street. They didnt find any suspicious people, but they said they did hear repeated shots from an air pistol, with some of the shots nearly striking police offers that had responded to the complaint.
They were able to see a gun barrel sticking out an apartment window at 2 Willow St., and officers responded to that apartment and talked to the four people in the apartment. They reportedly identified Dion as the shooter.
Police said they had received no reports of damage to vehicles in the Fay Motors lot.
BENCH WARRANT - MASSENA - Village police picked up Paul J. Mathous, 27, of 49 1/2 Maple St., Lot 3, Massena, on a St. Lawrence County Court bench warrant at 9:19 a.m. Friday on Maple Street. He was transported to the St. Lawrence County Correctional Facility pending his arraignment on the warrant in county court.
Mathouspleaded guilty to third-degree rape in August 2010. He admitted to having sex with an underage female in Massena on May 31, 2010.
The teenager told police she and Mathous had been texting back and forth, and he came to her home in the foothills of the Adirondacks at approximately 11:50 p.m. May 30, 2010.
She told police Mathous was a passenger in a vehicle being driven by another Massena man. The teenager said the two men stayed at her house until 1:30 a.m. when they left to go to the Walmart store in Malone. She said they then went to a Massena residence.
Paul kept asking me to have sex with him. I refused at the beginning but then gave in because I was afraid, she said in a statement she provided to police.
Mathous is classified as a Level II sex offender, the category for offenders viewed as a moderate risk to commit another sex crime.

We recently came across this article on CNN that talked about high roaming charges and we thought it would be a good idea to bring it up on the blog.
The article talks about P. Morgan Brown and "when his wife decided to take a spur-of-the-moment vacation to Indonesia." When she got back from the trip her "Verizon bill came to a staggering $8,000. Text-messages home cost an astounding $2.50 each and the meter was running at an eye-popping $1.75 a minute for phone calls."
Now Mrs. Brown's case is an exception but it's happening more and more. People aren't realizing the charges and the roaming rates they are being charged.
This problem isn't happening just with overseas travel. Steven Frischling, a New York travel consultant, returned from a recent trip to Detroit to find a $500 international phone bill. The problem wiht his bill was he was in Detroit which meant it wasn't actually roaming. The problem was the Apple iPhone he used kept picking up signal from the Canadian towers. He was able to prove that he was in Detroit and the charges were eventually reveresed.
The article gives 5 things you can do to alleviate those high charges
1. Buy another phone. That's right when you get over to the place you are going by a local service with pre-paid SIM card. Likely this will be a cheaper alternative then the roaming charges. We are sure that a local cell phone place would have been better then an $8000 bill.
2. Get a plan. If you want to keep you phone and still use your carriers service then consider getting a international plan. One where roaming is included.
3. Go VOIP. VOIP or Voice Over Internet Protocol is a feature that lets you make a call over the internet rather then over the cell phone towers. You may have heard of Skype. This is a VOIP service and if you are make Skype to Skype calls then calling is free anywhere in the world. You can be in the US and calling someone in China and you wouldn't pay a dime.
4. Swap Cards. Probably the most convenient way. If you have a GSM cell phone you can get it unlocked or you can buy an unlocked cell phone. By doing this it lets you use the same phone you are use to but simply remove the SIM card in the phone and replace it with one locally. Basically this gives you the option of getting a local plan but not having to buy a phone. This is good since you can generally pick up a SIM card in most convenience stores. You basically are turning your cell phone into a pre-paid service. When you get back state-side simply put your regular SIM card back in and you'll have your old service without the charges.
5. Leave your phone at home. If you really want to be sure then simply don't bring your phone. If it's not out of the country then it can't get high roaming charges.

YARMOUTH, Maine (NEWS CENTER) - The Cumberland County Sheriff's Department now says no charges have been filed against a woman suspected of abducting her 18-month-old granddaughter.
Melanie Wever and the toddler, Hazel Richards, were visiting family in North Yarmouth with the permission of both the child's parents. While in Maine, the child's mother decided she wanted Hazel back. She contacted the sheriff's office who then contacted Wever. Wever refused to hand her over.
Wever then drove to Stoneham, MA and contacted her son, James Richards, had just arrived in Boston from Indiana. Police made contact with the three at a store in Stoneham a short time later.
After being taken into custody, police interviewed Wever and Richards and decided to not charge Wever and granted custody of Hazel to her father James Richards.
Wever did appear in court this morning, but police in Massachusetts say Wever is wanted on other outstanding warrants not related to this case.

Tuition at state operated colleges and universities in Utah climbed significantly during the last two decades.
The tuition increases outpaced inflation, family income and financial aid growth from 1983 to 2000, indicates the latest research report released by the Utah Foundation.
Tuition at Utah's four-year universities jumped 188 percent, while inflation measured by the consumer price index rose 73 percent during the designated period.
A second measure of inflation, the higher education price index, rose 97 percent in the last two decades.
The price index measures cost increases specific to higher education.
Tuition at Utah's two-year colleges climbed at slower rate, rising 137 percent within the 17 years examined in the foundation report.
Financial aid to students kept pace with tuition increases through the 1980s, but dropped dramatically after 1992.
Costs of attending Utah's universities remain low compared to schools in other regions of the United States.
Among the state's higher educational institutions, only the University of Utah at $12,680 a year exceeds the national average of $11,329 in total costs of attendance.
However, tuition at the U of U registers lower than the national average.
According to the foundation report, the expenditures for books, supplies and school related items resulted in the total cost of attendance at the U of U to exceed the national average.
Utah's two-year colleges cost about the same as the national average, registering at approximately $2,300 per year for tuition, books and supplies.
Although tuition has risen rapidly, so has the state's funding of higher education from tax revenues. State support has grown nearly as fast as the tuition rate, rising 165 percent since 1983 to a level of $425 million in 2000.
The high rates of growth in tuition costs and state government support are due to Utah's unique demographics. Utah has a large and rapidly growing population of college-age individuals.
In Utah, 18- to 24-year-olds comprise 24 percent of the state's working age population.
Nationally, the 18- to 24-year-old age group makes up 16 percent of the working age population in the U.S.
Utah not only has a higher proportion of students needing education services, but a smaller proportion of people in the full-time labor force to pay taxes to support these services, points out the foundation's analysis.
Entitled "Setting the Price of Higher Education in Utah," the report evaluated several factors and trends in higher education finance for Utah's state colleges and universities.
The factors analyzed in the nonprofit, non-advocacy research organization report included:
How tuition, fees, living costs and higher eduction expenses compare for students in Utah and other regions of the U.S.
How tuition rates have grown in comparison to inflation, Utah family incomes and financial aid.
Reasons why tuition has increased and the rising costs faced by the state's higher education system.
State financial contributions to higher education over time.
Challenges and constraints faced by Utah policy makers as well as the fact that the state has a large college-age population compared to other states.

"Just-in-Time" Learning About Flagged Videos
Sometimes it happens. You've read the Community Guidelines, you think you understand the rules, and you upload videos that you believe comply with them. Then one day you receive a message from us informing you that one of your videos has "been disabled for violation of the YouTube Community Guidelines."
"Huh?" you ask yourself. "What's the connection between the Community Guidelines and my video?" Starting today, we'll help answer that question by including tips from the Community Guidelines in the messages we send you if we take down one of your videos.
For example, you post a video that features nudity. When it gets flagged by the YouTube community and removed by our staff, you'll receive this reminder: "Most nudity is not allowed on YouTube, particularly if it is in a sexual context. Videos that are intended to be sexually provocative are also generally not acceptable for YouTube. There are exceptions for some educational, documentary and scientific content, but only if that is the sole purpose of the video and it is not sexually gratuitous."
We think of this as "just-in-time" learning to help you make and upload videos that stay up on the site for the world to see.

The campaign includes a new I Love NY marketing campaign with Port Authority and the Metropolitan Transit Authority to promote upstate New York tourism destinations.
It also includes plans for new Welcome Centers at border and interstate crossings that will serve as hubs of information about the states tourism assets and attractions and new signs showcasing local attractions placed strategically at border and interstate crossings.
Taste NY, a program marketing New York grown agricultural products, will be expanded to include Taste NY products sold at strategically located rest stops across the state.
The governor also announced that there will be a Taste NY tent at this years PGA tournament in Rochester to sell and provide samples of Made in NY products to tournament goers.
The state will also create a Sports and Special Events Commission to recruit sporting and other special events to venues across the state.
The initiative also includes an international tourism campaign, a proposal to create a clearinghouse for tourism statistics, an agreement with the Times Square Alliance to provide the state space at the visitors center there, and an I Love New York LGBT niche tourism initiative to market the state to the LGBT community, which accounts for approximately $70 billion in tourism spending in the U.S. every year.

What do you expect from Jason Bay in 2012?
In his continuing series looking at player performances from 2011, Joe Janish writes the following in his review of Jason Bay:
[jbox color="blue"]Is Jason Bay finished? His swift and drastic slide to mediocrity just after turning 30 is eerily similar to other sluggers of the past, such as Robin Ventura, Bobby Higginson, Jacque Jones, Von Hayes, Dale Murphy, Shawn Green, and Andruw Jones (to name a few). … In 2012 I'm going to keep my expectations low for Jason Bay, but at the same time I'll be pulling for him — hard — with every at-bat he takes. As a streak hitter, he has a shot at finding his stroke and getting hot just long enough to become a trading chip at the deadline — much like the Burnitz turnaround of 2003."[/jbox]
Janish predicts that Bay will start slowly, get hot in June and eventually be traded at the deadline for "marginal, A-ball prospects."

No moneys from the Land and Water Conservation Fund (77 Stat. 49), as amended [16 U.S.C. 460l–5], or from any other Federal grant program other than general revenue sharing and the community development block grant programs shall be used to match Federal grants under this program. Reasonable local costs of action program development to meet the requirements of section 2506 (a) of this title may be used as part of the local match only when local applicants have not received program development grants under the authority of section 2506 (c) of this title. The Secretary shall encourage States and private interests to contribute, to the maximum extent possible, to the non-Federal share of project costs.

A Specific number of how many animal and plant species that have been recorded in North Carolina would be very helpful to this site. The list of plants and animals are much too small to represent all of North Carolina.
munderhill replied on Permalink
True. The above list is not intended to be comprehensive, but rather to provide links to the articles in NCpedia about specific species found in North Carolina. We appreciate your feedback. We do have an estimated number of different species in this article: http://ncpedia.org/wildlife/overview.
For further information, you may wish to explore the NC Department of Environment & Natural Resources's Natural Heritage Program's database. It has more comprehensive lists of plants, animals, and more in North Carolina. Their website may be found at http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/nhp.

what are the most common forms of animal life in NC? I'm helping my son do a report for school.
Comment response:
Thanks for your question! Some of the profiles listed above may be a good starting place. The gray squirrel is our Official State Mammal and the cardinal is our Official State Bird. Both are found throughout the state as well.
Additional information about different species found in North Carolina may also be found on the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission's website.

Thank you for posting your question. The NC Wildlife Resources Commission recently updated their Web site and it has a wonderful new look! Unfortunately our links to the individual profiles all broke, however. I just finished updating all the links to those profiles that are still live on their site, however.
Your question alerted me to the fact that our links had broken, so I thank you very much for that!
Let us know if there is anything else we can do.

In short: A real thigh busterIn full: All on park pathways with a couple of pinch points. Plenty of ups and downs to test the stamnina. Not much about the charity, not even mentioned by the loud PA. Date of review: November 12, 2011
In short: Great run with very steep hillsDate of review: November 12, 2011
In short: Good fast race, delayed start thoughIn full: I thoroughly enjoyed this race firstly, it was beautiful by the river, however it was VERY cold, so the delayed start (due to queues of people waiting for the portaloos) was quite unpleasant. Otherwise, thought it was a good race, got a PB and nice scenery by the river. Date of review: October 18, 2011

With Halloween right around the corner, we're counting down the days by posting five fun facts about our favorite fright flicks.
Today's featured film is "Saw."
1. Leigh Whannell not only wrote the first film, but starred as Adam (above right), the photographer locked in a bathroom with Dr. Lawrence Gordon (Cary Elwes, above left). Whannell went on to produce the following six films.
2. To escape from the reverse bear trap, Amanda (Shawnee Smith) has to stab and dig through the stomach of her cellmate to find the key. His "guts" are actually a pig's uterus.
3. When Adam begins to smash Zep (Michael Emerson) with the toilet lid, he is actually hitting a garbage bag full of fake blood.
4. The only dummy used in the movie was the burnt corpse of Mark Wilson (Paul Gutrecht), who died while trying to save himself from a slow-acting poison in his body. All the other "corpses" were played by actors.
5. While most victims in popular horror films are female, everyone killed in "Saw" is a man. Equal rights!

Hey gang,
Rescued 2 pits about 9 months ago and they're getting big. Love my boys but I could use some guidance at times to make sure I'm doing right by them. I try not to play favorites but one of them I can take anywhere and he's a super obedient, calm and timid people pleaser and the his brother was the runt, and he's kind of a jerk (I love him too, but he's a not an easy dog, that's for sure)
Here's a couple pics of my boys (at 9 months)
Brady (left, the tougher dog) and Bruschi (right, the easier dog)

A couple of weeks ago a jury agreed with Apple in their latest lawsuit against Samsung, awarding Apple over $1 billion supporting its claim that Samsung infringed on their patents in the design of eight Samsung mobile phones and one tablet. But, there is method to Apple's madness, and it isn't putting Samsung out of business.
What this verdict does give Apple is the upper hand in "negotiations" that are being conducted through the courts all over the world. Apple's opponents include five of their largest competitors in the global war for smartphone and tablet dominance. It's not just Apple claiming patent violations. Most of the mobile behemoths are fighting amongst themselves over license agreements.
Apple big beef with its device-making rivals like Samsung, it that they use the Android operating system that Google gives away for free. According to Bloomberg Industries, Android accounts for about 60 percent of the mobile market, three times as large as Apple's iOS. The big prize Apple has its sights on is having the dominant operating system in the device market. The problem many consumers, app designers and device manufacturers should have with Apple's OS is that it's a closed-garden operating system while Google's (and Microsoft's) is an open system. This means that Apple controls everything. (This was a point that Steve Jobs was always fanatical about.)
U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh will probably deny a request by Samsung to throw out the verdict. Samsung's lawyers will file an appeal in a higher court.
Koh will still have to decide whether to issue an injunction blocking the sale in the U.S. of the nine Samsung devices in the latest lawsuit. If she decides in favor of Apple, Samsung will have to make some design changes, eliminating the offending features or pull them from the market. Samsung probably won't expend too much effort on this since the nine devices are older ones, and they can still sell them outside the U.S. The hit to their bottom line should be minimal.
Once the competitors get some legal satisfaction, they'll make their financial deals over supplying products and components to one another. Even Apple will play nice. (Apple is Samsung's biggest customer for mobile-device components).In the meantime, the companies are still doing business as usual with one another while they keep their lawyers busy in court.
Telecom companies and consumers aren't going to put up with a clearing out of the competition by Apple. Many of us like Android devices like Samsung's, and Microsoft's Windows Phone OS is a welcome addition to the competition. Bottom line: what ultimately happens from all this bickering is up to us.

Sigma-Aldrich beats estimates on higher sales
October 22, 2013 | Vincent Valk
Sigma-Aldrich today reported third-quarter net income of $119 million, up 6% year-on-year (YOY), on sales up 4%, to $664 million. Adjusted earnings excluding some restructuring charges totaled $1.05/share, ahead of analysts' consensus estimate of 99 cts/share, as reported by Thomson Reuters (New York). "Our overall organic sales growth in the quarter was the best performance in over two years. All of our business units and geographies contributed to growth in the quarter despite uncertainties in the US federal funding environment. We maintained...

Perfect stocking stuffers!
By Pat
from Tulsa, OK
3 sets of these cute pencils are going to Austria for my grandkids' stockings this Christmas. I picked a design that is perfect for each one's interest. I know they will love having pencils with their very own name on them!
Bottom LineYes, I would recommend this to a friend
Was very disappointed
By Cammie
from Dallas Tx
It's was easy to sharpen so that was great for my daughter but her name on ALL of the pencils were NOT clear at all. Was a BIG disappointment for her. She was looking forward to showing them off at school to her friends but now she can't because her name is unreadable. My first time ordering from here probably my last. I order 3 different (12)sets all with my daughters name and ALL were unreadable.
Bottom LineNo, I would not recommend this to a friend

BUFFALO, NY-- We'll have to wait a little longer to see whether Wegmans will be given the green light to build a wine and liquor store near its North Buffalo location.
The grocery store wants to build the store in the grassy area between its parking lot and Amherst Street.
The proposal was brought up before the City's planning board Tuesday morning, but a decision won't be made for at least two weeks.
Wegmans plans to meet Wednesday night with a neighborhood group to review the project some more.

Loving and hating mathematics is an intriguing title, but it doesn't tell you what this book is about. More informative is the subtitle: Challenging the myths of mathematical life. The book is a collaboration between a mathematician, Reuben Hersh, and a psychologist in the fields of linguistics and education, Vera John-Steiner.
With twenty skillfully written essays Tony Crilly paints a broad-stroke picture of modern mathematics, focusing on some of the most exciting topics. This book is intended for people whose acquaintance with mathematics is limited to their high school years, but who want to know "what all this fuss is about". It is ideal for those who have heard that mathematicians talk about imaginary numbers and unbreakable codes, and want to know how much of it, if any, is true.
When Gems of Geometry arrived through the post it seemed the Gods had conspired to despatch the perfect book for me to review. Like the author, John Barnes, I have a fascination with Edwin Abbot Abbot's Flatland and spent many childhood hours gluing paper models of fantastical geometric constructions together.
Computing is at the heart of our modern world, but what are its frontiers? This book presents new trends in this fast growing field. Although the topics covered range from spacecraft control to embedding intelligence in bacteria, they all coincide in one fundamental point: the future of computing is a synthesis with nature.
Ian Stewart's latest book guides us through the recent collision of mathematics and biology. This is not a book about mathematics with a bit of biology sprinkled on afterwards – Mathematics of life weaves a history of biology with examples of how mathematics can help solve the unanswered questions that were created along the way. Mathematics, Stewart argues, will be the next biological revolution.
Benjamin Wardhaug's book is entitled How to read historical mathematics and this is precisely what it is about. It is an introduction to the marvellous world of the history of mathematics, aimed at the general public. You will not learn a lot either about mathematics or its history, but you will be much better prepared for reading old mathematical masterpieces after this book.

Click here to read product details
I almost did not buy this cartridge. My daughters are young adults and I don't know anything about Hannah Montana except I see her EVERYWHERE. I decided to get it anyway because I'm addicted to cartridges.... WOW you are in for a treat. There are some GREAT Fonts on here - some of the best put out buy Cricut. Give it a try, you won't regret it!
I am amazed at how often I use this cartridge. I have never used it for "Hannah" cuts, only the other great cuts on this cartridge!!
I got this cartridge for my daughter's birthday (she's turning four) and I love it! It is so useful. You don't need to be a Hannah fan to find something fun on this cartridge.
My daughter is past Hannah Montana - but the fonts and images are really great. Well worth it!
I picked up this cartridge for a "song" and am so glad I did. There are very few Hannah cuts on here, it is primarily a font cartridge with some really great fonts! I really use this one a ton and have recommended it to lots of friends!
This is one of my favorite font cartridges. The other cuts are great, but the font is wonderful.
I got this as a gift, one of my first ever cartridges, and I thought I was going to never use it. Boy was I happily wrong! I don't really use it for the Hanna Montana cuts, I use it for most of my font projects, but I LOVE the Pegasus on there, I use it for a bunch of different cards throughout the year for all my Fantasy & horse lovers that I make cards for. I am so glad my grandma got this for me, you should get it too, you will not be disappointed!

POTSDAM - Picture yourself in Mexico, mesmerized by Mayan and Aztec symbols, and captivated by the beauty of the Templo Mayor. Now picture yourself earning credits for it.
That is exactly what students and faculty from The State University of New York at Potsdam and Clarkson University did this winter from Jan. 6 to Jan. 16 through a SUNY Potsdam study abroad course.
The SUNY Potsdam students included:
■ John Jadlos of Potsdam, whose major is physics and mechanical engineering, through SUNY Potsdams 3/2 program with Clarkson University.
■ Britney Livingston of Lisbon, whose major is mathematics.
Under the instruction of Dr. Blair Madore and Dr. Cheryl Miller from SUNY Potsdam and Dr. Jeanna Matthews from Clarkson, eight students traveled to Mexico to participate in hands-on learning experiences involving Meso-American culture and mathematics.
SUNY Potsdam has a partnership with The Universidad Aut�noma del Estado de Hidalgo in Mexico, but this was the first time that students were able to travel there. The math component of the trip made this one of the most unique study abroad programs Potsdam has offered to date.
Several aspects of a normal classroom setting were integrated into the curriculum of this 100-level course. However, the class was always on the move: Quizzes were taken during car rides, discussions were posed over dinner, and unlike Potsdam, sunscreen and comfortable shoes were necessities.
Some of the highlights of the trip included visiting the Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City, the Tula Archaeological Site and Museum in Hidalgo and the Pyramids of the Sun and Moon in Teotihuac�n. The students also got several chances to interact and explore with students from UAEH.
I really liked Teotihuac�n and the height of the temples. I have a fear of heights, so I felt great walking to the top of the Pyramid of the Sun. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that everyone should have, said Myriah Dengel, a senior Spanish major.
Class work included scavenger hunts, tours of museums and other math puzzles and projects. Focusing on Meso-American culture, students learned about the history of mathematics in several cultures, including Egypt, Mesopotamia and China. The students experiences helped them gain a greater understanding of mathematics and a greater appreciation for its contributors.
Junior mathematics student Britney Livingston said, The learning experience was much different than that of a normal classroom setting. We had a lot of hands-on experiences which helped us see why math really matters and how it can be applied in real life situations.
Math students at SUNY Potsdam know all about numbers and symbols, but when they traveled to Mexico, the Meso-American culture had them learning all over again. The opportunities that were available to them through this program were incomparable; students got to use and study real life artifacts, places, structures and symbols to gain a better understanding of math.
Being immersed in the culture was a great experience; the university was very gracious and helpful. The way we learned was very unique because we got to see the math in conjunction with artifacts and landmarks, junior mathematics and chemistry major Kathleen Morrissey said. I found myself wanting to stay and learn more. I never thought Mexico would have had this big of an impact on me. I will remember this trip for the rest of my life.
SUNY Potsdam has many opportunities to study abroad, but there have not been many opportunities like this tailored for mathematics majors. With the successful completion of the first session, the Department of Mathematics hopes to continue the program in the future with the support of UAEH and continued involvement from Clarkson University.

The communist dictatorship ruling over mainland China has a new centrally planned plot in the works, a controversial scheme that seeks to force hundreds of millions of farmers from rural areas to regime-dominated mega-cities being built across the nation. According to news reports, much of the land is being seized by force as the Chinese Communist Party works fiendishly to pack people into shoddy cookie-cutter buildings and cities sprouting up all over the country.
More than a few analysts, of course, have cited former Chinese dictator Mao Tse Tung's central planning schemes, which killed tens of millions of innocent people through starvation and even outright murder. While the late communist tyrant was obsessed with forcing "industrialization" on China from the top down, the regime's newest crop of autocrats is similarly determined to foist what is dubbed "urbanization" on the Chinese.
It appears increasingly clear that the vast rural population will be forced to submit and "urbanize" whether they like it or not — all for their own benefit, of course, the regime and its propagandists insist. The latest development, though, follows decades of centrally planned disasters triggered by Communist Party plans to redesign society.
Among the worst was the murderous "Cultural Revolution," a program started by mass-murderer Mao designed to centralize and solidify communist control by attacking traditions, vestiges of the market system, and especially dissidents. Another tragedy brought about by the regimes scheming: the so-called "Great Leap Forward," which was supposed to modernize the country away from its agricultural roots but actually led to the "Great Chinese Famine" and tens of millions dead.
According to a report in the New York Times, the latest communist plan aims to relocate some 250 million rural people into urban areas over the next 12 years. The U.K. Telegraph, meanwhile, reported separately that around 400 million Chinese from the countryside were in the regime's crosshairs to be corralled into sprawling new centrally planned cities being erected all across China. Bloomberg Businessweek said about half of China's rural population of 650 million would be relocated by "nudging, urging, and sometimes forcing farmers and their families to settle in China's cities."

The Utah Wildlife Board wants gray wolves removedfrom the Endangered Species list through federal legislation.
The board consists of seven citizens appointed by the governor.
Setting polices that guide the management of wildlife in Utah is their main responsibility.
Members of the board want Utah's wolf management plan to guide the management of any wolves that make their way to Utah from surrounding states. But that can't happen until wolves are removed from federal protection.
The board approved the management plan in 2005. State has expertise
The board also supports S.B. 36, Wolf Management Act, which was passed by the Utah Legislature during its 2010 session.
"We are confident that the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources has the personnel and expertise to effectively manage wolves," Utah Wildlife Board Chairman Rick Woodard said in a letter the board formerly endorsed at a meeting Oct. 19 in Salt Lake City.
Wolves far exceed population objectives established in the recovery plan for the Northern Rocky Mountain population of gray wolves. But repeated attempts to delist wolves have been overturned by court challenges.
