Taylor Roberts, a University of Colorado Boulder senior majoring in architectural engineering, is an example of the growing number of CU-Boulder students who are civically engaged.
Current undergraduate students wishing to transfer to the College of Engineering and Applied Science from another college or school on the Boulder campus, or add a College of Engineering and Applied Science major to their current degree program, must do so through the Intra-University Transfer (IUT) process. This college reserves the right to revise the IUT application process or admissions criteria as it finds necessary.
The following information pertains to degree-seeking students new to the CU-Boulder campus in Fall 2014 or later. Students matriculating at CU-Boulder prior to Fall 2014 should consult this document for admission requirements and additional information.
Please Note: To make an appointment with the IUT Coordinator, please carefully read the requirements on this page. Please complete this quiz present it at your advising meeting.
IUT Advising is available Mondays from 2-4pm ONLY
IUT Information Sessions for Fall 2015:
Information Session #1:
When: Tuesday, September 22nd from 4-5pm
Where: Engineering Center Classroom Wing (ECCR 200)
Information Session #2:
When: Wednesday, October 7th from 4-5pm
Where: Engineering Center Classroom Wing (ECCR 155)
The IUT application form must be obtained from and returned to the college's Dean's Office (ECAD 100). Applications are accepted at any time, but applicants should apply by the deadlines specified in the table below if they are seeking admittance for a given semester.
*It is the applicant's responsibility to ensure that the application form is submitted prior to the deadline date and that this form accurately documents all of the applicant's academic record. Once submitted, an IUT application may not be withdrawn.
**EXCEPTION: Students who never previously applied to the College of Engineering and Applied Science at CU-Boulder may apply for admission if the semester admitted would occur within 18 months of their high school graduation date.
*See FAQ's below for more details and requirements
Students completing the required CU-Boulder coursework and meeting the criteria below will be guaranteed admission to the major of choice in the College of Engineering and Applied Science:
Required Coursework:
1. Math: APPM 1350 (or MATH 1300) AND APPM 1360 (or MATH 2300).
2. For the appropriate science coursework, a combination of PHYS 1110 + CHEM 1113/1114, or PHYS 1110 + PHYS 1120, or CHEM 1113/1114 + CHEM 1133/1134 is appropriate.
a. Students interested in Chemical, Chemical/Biological, or Environmental Engineering should take chemistry combination.
Additional Admission Criteria:
1. The student must have completed a full-time CU-Boulder course load for the semester/term of application (i.e., semester/term being completed), with a semester/term GPA of at least 2.250.
2. The CU-Boulder Cumulative GPA must be at least 2.700. Only CU-Boulder campus coursework is used in this computation, not coursework from other CU campuses.
3. The CU-Boulder Technical GPA must be at least 2.700. See UCB Technical GPA to know what courses are included in the CU-Boulder Technical GPA. Individual grades in the CU-Boulder Technical GPA must be at least C-. Only CU-Boulder campus coursework is used in this computation, not coursework from other CU campuses.
4. You may run the "GPA Calc for Engineering IUTs" degree audit on MyCUInfo.colorado.edu to track your CU-Boulder Cumulative GPA and CU-Boulder Technical GPA.
5. The students' semester GPA needs to be at least a 2.250 at the time of application. Repeated coursework may be factored into the admission GPA, however, the true GPA must be above the college minimum of a 2.250 to start in good standing in the college.
**Note: GPA recalculations for repeated classes only apply for IUT admission purposes. CU-Boulder does not have grade replacement and the true GPA will include both original and repeated course grades**
*See FAQ's below for more details and requirements *
The college will make one of the following decisions concerning IUT applicants:
ADMIT- The applicant is admitted to this college as a full-time undergraduate student.
REFUSE - The applicant is refused admission to this college. Once refused, the applicant may continue in engineering courses for the following semester and then be automatically considered for IUT admission a second time. If not admitted this second time, no additional engineering courses may be taken (unless for a minor) and the student cannot apply to this College in the future.
The college may decide to defer the admit or refuse decision. This option is allowed only if documented external events have negatively impacted the applicant during the semester in which the IUT application was processed, e.g., extended medical care throughout the semester or a family emergency with considerable time away from school.
IUT policy states that students not admitted to engineering are not allowed to enroll in any 3000+ level departmental courses.
Note for Aerospace applicants: The Aerospace department requires a C or better in all courses that are prerequisites to another in that major. A C- is acceptable for IUT admission, however, you may be asked to repeat the course(s) if admitted to Aerospace.
Note for Chemical Engineering, Chemical & Biological Engineering, and Environmental Engineering applicants: If the student's schedule permits, the IUT applicant may consider enrolling in CHEN 1211-3 and CHEM 1221-2 (General Chemistry for Engineers with laboratory). Alternatively, IUT applicants may substitute both CHEM 1113/1114 (General Chemistry 1 with lab) and CHEM 1133/1134 (General Chemistry 2 with lab) for this degree requirement.
Note for Double Degree applicants: If you are planning to add a major in this college to another major in another college/school at CU-Boulder, students must satisfy curricula for both programs and may need to complete additional semester credit hours above and beyond the largest minimum credit hour requirement.
If you would like a condensed PDF version of the information above, please refer to this presentation.
1. The student's high school academic record meets or exceeds the minimum criteria as follows:
a. Rank in top 10% or GPA of 3.80
b. AND SAT Critical Reading 610/ACT English 27 and SAT Math 670/ACT Math 30
2. The CU-Boulder Cumulative GPA is at least 3.100, and
3. No grades earned at CU-Boulder are below C-. In addition, if a student has established a CU-Boulder Technical GPA, this GPA must be at least 2.700. All application deadlines as described in this advising guide apply.
It depends! Generally, applicants are required to complete a minimum of four CU-Boulder courses to be reviewed for admission: two appropriate mathematics courses and two appropriate science courses. A typical sequence involves two semesters of college calculus and two semesters of a laboratory science course (college-level chemistry and/or calculus-based physics).
If you are enrolled in courses the semester you apply, the college waits until the end of the semester/term, after final grades have posted, before reviewing the IUT application.
Exception: A request for immediate review can be made by any applicant who applies during summer and is not actively enrolled in CU-Boulder summer session at the time of applying. Accepted students matriculate in the college in either the fall or spring semester (not summer session).
Applicants must be enrolled in and complete at least 12 CU-Boulder credit hours when applying during fall semester for spring semester admittance, or when applying during spring semester for fall semester admittance.
NOTE: There is no minimum enrollment requirement to apply during summer session for fall semester admittance.
If a course or equivalent course was repeated at CU-Boulder, only the most recent grade will be included in the above GPAs (note in all cases that the College only allows a student three attempts to master the subject at the required level for degree requirements).
*Any grades earned prior to ten years from the date of IUT application will not be considered in the GPA calculator*
COEN 1300 will become CHEN 1310 in fall 2015. You will need special permission from the Chemical Engineering Department to enroll in this course.
Email the AREN advisor with the following information: Name, Student ID number, Course Number, Section Number(s).
Email the AREN advisor with the following information: Name, Student ID number, Course Number, Section Number(s).
Download, complete, and submit the Request for Non-Majors to Take ECE Courses form.
Complete the online MCEN Course Request form.
If a particular course is not listed above, it means it is either always restricted to engineering students only (eg. HUEN courses) or that it is available to all CU-Boulder students (eg. CSCI 1300)
If a student has previously completed any portion of the aforementioned courses elsewhere than at CU-Boulder, or gained college credit otherwise (e.g., AP exam credit), he/she should confer with the college's IUT Coordinator regarding appropriate CU-Boulder math and science courses for the IUT.
Yes! Other courses may be selected to fulfill degree requirements in the humanities or social sciences and to meet MAPS requirements. See the college's Humanities, Social Sciences, and Writing degree requirements and MAPS requirements.
Yes! The majority of courses first-year engineering students take are open to all CU-Boulder students. Within their first year, engineering students take two calculus courses and two appropriate laboratory science courses. Taking these courses not only makes you eligible to apply for the IUT, but keeps you on track for your engineering degree.
Students who are admitted to a college other than the College of Engineering and Applied Science register for their first semester of classes during their summer orientation session. They will meet with an advisor in their current college who can help them determine applicability of AP/IB or other transfer credit and answer any registration questions.
Recommended courses that non-engineering students should sign up for during their first year on campus are listed below. Note that students interested in Chemical Engineering, Chemical and Biological Engineering, or Environmental Engineering may want to consider taking summer classes after their first-year in order to stay on track with their departmental curriculum.

The Sierra Designs Backcountry Bed 800 is an innovative design that combines the good attributes of traditional mummy-style sleeping bags and an ultralight quilt. While certainly not ultra-light, this bag is ultra-comfortable. The unique "bed-style" design of this bag enables you to manage temperature easily and roll around with the attached quilt to your perfect sleeping position. Stomach sleepers like this bag for the ability to lay flat on their stomach with their arms pointing toward their head, still within the warmth of a down sleeve/pocket. This bag is not the overall best performing sleeping bag in this review, but for those who prioritize comfort over weight and materials, the Backcountry Bed is a good choice. It won one of our Top Pick Awards for comfort. We can only hope that this bag gets lighter in future versions so that we won't hesitate to take it on summer backpacking trips.

OutdoorGearLab Editors' Hands-on Review
New Review Coming: Fall 2015
Our reviewers are currently hard at work testing the latest version of the Sierra Designs BackCountry Bed 800 3-Season! Check back this fall for a new review!
The Sierra Designs Backcountry Bed 800 is an innovative three-season sleeping bag that combines the favorable attributes of a traditional mummy bag and ultra-light quilt design.
Performance Comparison
The Backcountry Bed enables you to closely manage your sleeping temperature by manipulating the attached quilt and utilizing the vented footbox. In colder conditions the quilt is tucked into the opening. During warmer nights the quilt is allowed to rest outside the opening. The quilt is plenty big to envelop you while it is outside of the opening, just like the comforter on your bed. There are hand pockets/sleeves that help to keep you covered if sleeping flat on your stomach. The temperature regulation is really nice and the bag is generally warm in mild to cool summer conditions. However, when in cold temperature mode (quilt tucked in) the quilt easily comes untucked creating drafty conditions in the bag. Choosing a more comfortable sleeping position and temperature is great, but it comes with drawbacks when you need to stay extra warm.
For true three season use there are warmer bags that pack down smaller. Consider the Marmot Plasma for only $40 more. For other less conventional designs that maximize weight-to-warmth ratio, see the Ultra-light Sleeping Bag review.
At 42 oz. (long size) the Backcountry Bed is not an ultra-light sleeping bag and is one of the heavier bags we've reviewed. In fact, it is only an ounce lighter than the synthetic bags we tested and the Kelty Cosmic Down 20, which only costs only $160 and won our Best Buy Award. The lack of a zipper saves weight on this bag, but better quality shell fabrics would reduce weight even more.
This bag really shines as a comfortable place to lay your head while out in the backcountry. It has a slightly wider cut in general, and the integrated quilt gives you maximum freedom of movement to find the perfect sleeping position. The manufacturer likens the experience to sleeping with a comforter in your bed at home. Although it might not be quite that luxurious, we did find it to be a nice alternative to the restrictive nature of many traditional mummy style sleeping bags. The excellent sleeping pad integration allows you to move around without the bag shifting too much.
A note on fit The size long in the Backcountry Bed felt too big for 6'0" testers. The bag's generally relaxed fit increases the function of its comfort features but we think that a better fit would increase thermal efficiency without detracting too much from the comfort of the bag.
Packed Size
The Backcountry Bed is slightly bulky. This can be attributed to its wider cut and heavier shell material that don't compress well.
The temperature control features of the Sierra Designs Backcountry Bed are the strengths of this sleeping bag. The quilt increases comfort while allowing you to adjust the temperature quite intuitively. The vented footbox helps manage overheating in the lower portion of the bag. As with all features in sleeping bags, it is a careful balance between function and detracting from the overall performance of the bag y adding too much complexity and weight. In mild to cool summer conditions, the features of the Backcountry Bed are excellent. When you need the bag to keep you warm in cold conditions, those same features can fail you when the quilt falls out of the opening. There is no cinching draft collar and you can't tighten the hood.
The sleeping pad integration with this sleeping bag is excellent. Testers used a Thermarest Neo Air X-Lite pad, which fits perfectly into the pad sleeve on the bottom of the Backcountry Bed. There is no down insulation under your core where you lay on the pad. This saves weight and bulk. By attaching the pad to the bag, you maximize the freedom of movement that this design allows. (See the photo above for a visual on how well this feature works.)
The Backcountry Bed is not the highest performing three-season bag in our review, but it does comfortably accommodate the most sleeping styles of any other bag. It is a great choice for people who spend a lot of time in a sleeping bag, even if it's not backpacking.
Best Application
This bag is best suited for summer time use in environments with generally mild to cool night time temperatures. The bag is neither ultra-light or highly compressible, but it is still acceptable for general backpacking use. People who prioritize comfort over weight and size can rationalize carrying the Backcountry Bed more often than other bags. This bag crosses over well to regular use for general camping whether in a campground, in your truck, or on your friend's floor.
We feel the Sierra Designs Backcountry bed is too expensive. There are many other bags in this review that are lighter, warmer, made with better materials, and are less expensive. Overall, the Backcountry Bed is a novelty, and if you can afford a bag solely for comfort sake, then this is your choice.
The Sierra Designs Backcountry Bed is an extremely comfortable sleeping bag. It allows you to sleep in just about any position, more comfortably than any other sleeping bag in this review. The design concept is very unique, but the bag is still a bit heavy and does not pack down very small. If you spend a lot of time in a sleeping bag in mild to cool summer conditions, and prioritize comfort over weight and bulk, this is a good choice for you. Testers generally enjoyed the sleeping experience in the Backcountry Bed, but were left wishing that it was lighter and smaller.
Other Versions
Sierra Designs Backcountry Bed 800 - Women's
Backcountry Bed 800 2-Season
Sierra Designs also offers both the 3-season and 2-season bags in a 600 fill, there is about a $100 to $150 price difference and about a half pound. The 600 fill would be better for car camping, while the 800 fill would be a better choice for backpacking.

PUPITUP is yet another Puppy Linux-based operating system oriented towards musicians who are looking for a portable music lab built around open-source software projects. It is fully compatible with netbook computers or machines with small screens, including Acer Aspire One and ASUS Eee PC.
It's distributed as a dual-arch Live CD
At the moment, the distro is available for download on Softpedia as a dual-arch Live CD ISO image that can be used on modern computers supporting the 64-bit architecture or on old 32-bit machine. The project was successfully tested on an Acer Aspire One netbook with 1.5GB of RAM and an 120GB HDD, while PUPITUP was running completely from a USB stick.
Offers advanced boot options on the Live CD
While the ISO image has been engineered to automatically start the live system in ten seconds from the moment the user boots it from the BIOS of a computer, it offers advanced boot options that will help you to use the operating system on certain hardware.
Traditional desktop environment built around IceWM
Before you can access the graphical session, you must choose a mouse type, a keyboard layout and a display server. The desktop environment is built around the traditional IceWM window manager, which uses a single taskbar located on the bottom edge of the screen.
Comes pre-loaded with music-related apps
As expected, the PUPITUP distro comes pre-loaded with music-related apps. Among the most important ones, we can mention the Audacity audio editor, LMMS multimedia studio, Qsynth MIDI sequencer, TkSolfege ear training program, as well as MuseScore music composition and notation software.
It is no longer under active development
Like many other distributions of Linux, PUPITUP did not survived the time past. Since 2009, the project is no longer under active development, which means that the pre-installed packages are very old and will no longer receive software updates or security patches. It an unsafe operating system that has been archived for historical references purposes only.

UPDATE - Segares clarified his comments following training on Wednesday.
"Its always an honor to be called up to the national team and represent your country. Regretfully at this moment the injuries the team is suffering along with the Open Cup game and league game against Real Salt Lake prevents the team from allowing me to go with the national team. If it was my decision, I would love to go with the national team but regretfully its just not the right moment. My door is always open for a national team call-up."
Last week, Chicago Fire defender Gonzalo Segares was summoned by Costa Rica for next week's international friendly against Canada in Edmonton.
With Segares having mostly gone unselected by the Ticos the last few years, the call-up was a welcome one. With the Fire experiencing a high amount of injuries, Orrin Schwarz reports the Fire left back turned it down in order to stick with the Men in Red through Saturday's game at Real Salt Lake and Wednesday's U.S. Open Cup match at Charlotte Eagles.
"We have important games coming up, and it's not a FIFA date, so I cannot leave my team right now," Segares said. "We need to stay together. It's not the right time for me to go."
"There was thunder in our air; nature, as we embodied it, became overcast -- for we had not yet found the way. The formula of our happiness: a Yes, a No, a straight line, a goal..." - Friedrich Nietzsche
Be wary of people who throw around Nietzsche quotes. His writing is so punchy that it's easy to find good quotes inside of paragraphs about almost anything. Notice: I can take a line from a book Nietzsche wrote called The Anti-Christ and make it about soccer.
But if I can take a quote about anything out of context and pass it off as fair, it's a quote about goals, right? Goals, too, have a way themselves of coming out of context. Ask the Fire about it recently.
Where do goals come from? In no sport is scoring as mystifying, and, as a result, as satisfying. Goals are rare enough to be special, but common enough to drive the sport completely, and their origin remains a mystery. What fickle furnace forges them? They come from the heavens, where so many players give credit in their celebrations, and from an entire team's psychic connections. They come from perfect timing, impeccable technique, and acts of brilliance. They also come from deflections, bad refereeing, and those mis-kicked crosses that loop into the back post.
Where do goals come from? Don't ask the Fire right now. A team that hasn't always had problems scoring, the Fire find themselves in goal purgatory. For whatever reason, goals hate the Fire right now. They played well enough to at least earn a point out of Saturday's game, and absolutely dominated the first matchup against Philly last week -- but the Fire couldn't score. The drought has become confounding, almost like a natural disaster, something to marvel at in awe and horror.
It hurts even more to play against Jack McInerney twice in a row. McInerney has more goals this season than the entire Fire squad. He's so hot that goals are showing up in his bed at night. He's waking up next to goals he doesn't remember meeting.
Okay, okay. The point is that goals are not to be trusted. They're misleading. Goal stats rarely tell the story of a game, especially when teams control a game without scoring, like the Fire did two weeks ago and in periods on Saturday.
After a few unlucky breaks and a scuffed chance or two, it can feel like everything is conspired against you. The ref hates you, the ball and the vagaries of its deflections hate you, the goals themselves, they look so small now, even with their giant looming posts and their soft, welcoming nets -- don't trust them, they definitely hate you. Meanwhile, set plays executed perfectly in training don't come off. You start to over-think simple five yard passes. Your shoelaces untie themselves. It's excruciating. You can work, you can run, you can do everything you can, but nothing works.
Where do goals come from? Can Klopas and Pause go on some sort of vision quest to find some? The Fire are getting shots (22 over the last two matches vs. Philly), managing games, and getting chances, but the payoff is late.
Well, maybe there's more in the Nietzsche about goal-droughts that I thought. Much of The Anti-Christ is in response to Arthur Schopenhauer's cycle of desire and dissatisfaction, the cycle that defines
goals humanity. But like the Fire, Nietzsche is concerned with how we overcome our contemporary (~1880s) problems. He says that despite the fact that we once found happiness, we lost it. "We grew dismal; they called us fatalists."
But once "there was thunder in our air" and surely we'll recover it. "A Yes, a No, a straight line, a goal..."

Those that paid attention to the Twitter-verse during Tuesday night's U.S. Open Cup first round might have seen the name Duka being bandied about in Icon FC's 4-1 defeat of Brooklyn Italians.
No, Fire midfielder Dilly Duka isn't moonlighting out east.
The Duka in question was actually his older brother Argjent who tallied a hat trick in the New Jersey-based side's first round Open Cup win. The 27-year-old Duka scored in the 12th, 51st and 76th minute to push Icon past the NPSL side and into a second round matchup with the Richmond Kickers next Tuesday.

Back in Chicago, Dilly forewent Twitter updates and found his own way to see the match.
"I actually watched the game through Facetime on my iPhone," he joked. "I had my sister post up in the stands and kind of record it while I watched. I didn't get a TV view of everything but I saw most of the plays."
The younger Duka isn't surprised by his brother or Icon's success either.
"He's quick, he's technical and he obviously knows how to finish. It's a good team and it's a lot of guys I play with in the offseason so their chemistry is obviously better than some of the PDL or NPSL sides now.
"I'm excited for them. I think they can make it a little further."
Duka also reacted to the news of the Fire's potential third round opponents: the Charlotte Eagles or Seattle Sounders U-23s.
"These teams are going to be excited to play against us. They're definitely going to change their formation and go more defensive. We have to go in focused and take it seriously.
READ: Fire to Enter in Third Round of USOC
"I was in Columbus the past three years – the first year we took it seriously and did okay but the second and third year we lost in our first game. Whoever we play, it'll be the biggest game of the year for them."
While Duka is a former Crew player, he knows well his current team's history in the U.S. Open Cup.
"You come here and you know the Open Cup is important. I'm aware of that and I'm sure we're going to try and live up to our name and history in the competition."

Saturday was rough. You could almost feel the sucker punch coming, and it still hurt. Bad. There were a few interesting moments in the game but I couldn't stop thinking about the wind. It's one of the identifying characteristics of footy that you play in basically any condition, and it affects the way you play, the way you think about playing, and, obviously the results.
For all its stripped down, no pads, anyone-can-play humanity, the NBA is sterile in this regard. Every court is exactly the same and predictable (unless you have a bad shooting night, then you can blame the stadium's depth perception, or lighting problems). Football has to play in weather, but they ruin the fun by putting Super Bowls in safe weather cities. Baseball has to play in weather too, but they cancel games if anyone gets mud on their shoes.
No, soccer has to deal with the elements in every way, from bee attacks to snow to pitch problems to wind.
Saturday against Philly began as a perfect example. The wind was strong enough to blow the froth off your beer. I saw a garbage can at Toyota Park get blown over and almost tumble down an aisle. Meanwhile, Philly could hardly get the ball in the air, and when they did, the wind held it up like the perfect alley oop. Austin Berry and Jalil Anibaba were able to measure the long balls up easily and win them consistently, even over Connor Casey.
But as the game developed, it was interesting because the wind didn't seem to influence the game as much as it could have. It was irritating for the players (I've never seen Gonzalo Segares overhit so many crosses), and definitely a factor (it made Sean Johnson look like superman, I swear he could've kicked a goal kick into a bags game on the Party Deck in the first half if he wanted to), but it wasn't the storyline.
Anibaba and Berry kept winning headers off goal kicks and clearances going both directions, and neither team were obviously playing out of the back on the ground the way teams do when they're avoiding long balls into the wind. It seemed like a stalemate between the wind and the two sides. If only the wind could've pushed Patrick Nyarko's second half chance just an inch or two left, we'd be here sipping champagne joking about the wind, but we got sucker punched.
Let's take the funny with the tragic, here. The Fire were clearly robbed of three points, and the good news is that there's plenty of time to recover these lost points. The Rolfe/Nyarko partnership is promising, the weather's getting better, and at the end of the season we'll look back at plays like this one from Anibaba and laugh.
The Fire head into Saturday afternoon's game against the Union (12:30pm CT on NBC Sports Network) on the back of a much-needed bye week after the tough loss in Montreal the week prior.
Philly tied 2-2 against lowly Seattle last time out and are set to be missing a few defenders due to injury and suspension. Both teams play each other twice over the next seven days. Here are some things to look for from a tactical perspective.
Philly's makeshift back line – Fire must take advantage - part 1
The Union come into this game missing starting right back Sheanon Williams and it appears former Fire player Bakary Soumare will get the start at center back for the first time all season.
WATCH: Match Preview
This major reshuffle combined with the Fire being the home team should mean Frank Klopas' side will be set up to attack Philly whenever possible. Williams is a loss on the right, not only for his defensive play but also his long throw ability which can be used as an offensive threat.
Filling in for Williams should be usual left back Raymon Gaddis. Gaddis looked particularly uncomfortable against New England in the Union's last away match in April, with the youngster getting caught out by balls in behind on a few occasions.
He was also exposed when put under pressure. The Revs wingers had luck getting the ball in the box from Gaddis' side and with this in mind, I expect to see Joel Lindpere and Gonzalo Segares getting forward and attacking Gaddis whenever possible.
Philly's makeshift back line – Fire must take advantage - part 2
Ironically, last season's match against the Union saw Bakary Soumare play his first and only game of the 2012 season for the Union. In that match, the Fire looked to get in 1v1 situations with the rusty defender and it paid off, with MacDonald beating Soumare before crossing for a Chris Rolfe tap in goal. This weekend's game plan should be no different with Soumare not playing in a match since the game last August.
The Men in Red will also look to force Soumare out of the middle to cover on the outside, something no centerback likes to do. Presumed starting wingers Patrick Nyarko and Joel Lindpere will be relishing 1v1 opportunities with the big defender.
Another area to test Soumare will be in the air. New England was able to win the ball in the aerial battle on numerous crosses into the Philly box, partially because of the hesitancy of goalkeeper Zac MacMath to come and challenge them.
A new center back pairing combined with a sometimes hesitant goalkeeper can lead to defensive errors and one such error could be decisive on Saturday afternoon.
WATCH: Athletico Coaching Corner
Stopping the Philly attack - be ready for different combinations
When one looks at the Philly attack this season, it is easy to get distracted by the exploits of 20-year-old Jack McInerney who has notched six goals already for the Union this season.
He picked up April's Player of the Month award and is playing the best soccer of his young career. Beyond McInerney, the Union have three excellent strikers who bring different playing styles to the table.
Veteran Conor Casey has played up front with McInerney in recent matches and has combined well with the man 11 years his junior. Both strikers are very fluid, dropping deep, moving out to the wing or playing in the advanced striker role and switching at a moment's notice.
It is much easier to prepare for what you presume to be the starting strikers will be. The challenge in Saturday's game will be the adjustments the coaching staff make if and when the Union decide to bring on some attacking substitutions.
Antoine Hoppenot and Sebastian Le Toux have started from the bench in recent matches but both have a tendency to make a big impact once brought on. Le Toux is very good with the ball at his feet and he can easily play in the second striker role, allowing McInerney to permanently move higher up the pitch.
Hoppenot scored four goals off the bench last season and has come off the bench in all but one game this season. If Le Toux does come on, dropping presumed center-mid starter Daniel Paladini a bit deeper to reduce the space Le Toux has to operate in is an option.
In-game adjustments are not often talked about but can often be the difference between three points and one.

Select shots from the Fire's match vs. the Montreal Impact
CREDIT: USA Today Sports Images
The Fire head to Canada on Saturday to face the Montreal Impact (3:00pm CT LIVE on NBC Sports Network and La Ley 107.9 FM) on the back of their best performance of the season last weekend against Columbus.
The Impact rested quite a few players in the 2-0 Canadian Cup loss to Toronto at midweek but can jump back to the top of the Eastern Conference standings with a win. Here are some things to look out for from a tactical perspective…
More changes a right back – Pause or Videira to get the start?
Johnson, Anibaba Preview Montreal
With the retrospective ban handed down to Wells Thompson, the Fire will need to make yet another change at right-back for Saturday.
Arne Friedrich's continued absence means Jalil Anibaba and Austin Berry will continue at center back, so the battle for the open spot is between Logan Pause and Mike Videira.
The latter played very well in that position away to Kansas City where the Fire got men behind the ball and held out for a 0-0 draw.
It could be argued that Videira could have held on to the right-back spot based on that KC performance if he didn't get sidelined with a concussion late in the match.
READ: Thompson "disappointed" but accepts suspension vs. Montreal
Logan is certainly the more experienced of the pair but if he is moved to right back it would break up the three-game run the captain has had in central midfield with Jeff Larentowicz which has paid dividends of late.
Many fans were upset at Frank Klopas' decision to drop Daniel Paladini last week (which turned out to be a stroke of genius) but shifting Logan to right back would make room for Paladini to move back into the starting eleven.
Playing away against a team with excellent wingers will require whoever Klopas chooses on the right to be very disciplined and with players like Pause and Videira, we are spoilt for choice.
Pressuring the Montreal backline – don't let them play out of the back
Under new coach Marco Schällibaum, Montreal like to play the ball out of the back whenever possible. This can be problematic, especially when the opposing teams pressure the defenders and goalkeeper when they have the ball.
On a number of occasions this season, Montreal has been too casual when playing the ball out of the back which resulted in great opportunities for the other team. In some matches, even goalkeeper Troy Perkins was caught out trying to pass the ball to one of his defenders instead of just clearing it out of danger.
Because the Fire are playing away, they will almost certainly play on the counter attack, but if the attacking players like Chris Rolfe and Sherjill MacDonald can hound the Impact defense, it could result in a chance from a turnover.
Stifling Di Vaio – cutting of the supply to the frontman
Athletico Coaching Corner with Mike Matkovich
Montreal play with one striker, namely 36-year-old striker Marco Di Vaio. The Italian is not as mobile as he was in his younger days and he relies on his wide and attacking midfielders to get him the ball.
Montreal's wealth of attacking midfielders like ex-Fire winger Justin Mapp, MLS veteran Davy Arnaud and the extremely influential Brazilian Filipe are very difficult to control and when you add Di Vaio playing off the shoulder of the last defender to that mix, it makes it even harder to contain.
Though he lacks pace, the Italian gets himself into great positions and makes very smart runs off the ball. Against the Fire, Montreal will try and get the ball wide to players like Arnaud and Mapp because the Klopas' side will pack the midfield when they are not in possession.
This means the Fire must be wary of Di Vaio's movement in the box and also the late runs by other midfielders who will also be looking to get on the end of a cross.
Prediction: 2-1 Fire with a counter attack goal from Sherjill MacDonald and a goal from a corner by Austin Berry.

Summary [5 out of 5]
The Room is the first foray into the iOS gaming library from the folks at Fireproof Games, some Criterion alumni who banded together and released this short masterpiece, which has won Game of the Year from the App Store. The Room is a puzzle solving game with an interesting ambiguous narrative. To me it really invokes something of Lovecraftian and perhaps even Clive Barker's Hellraiser mythos in nature with a great welcoming nature to complete the challenges and continue on… if you dare.
What Is It Like?
The Room feels like it harkens back to some of the excellent elements found in Myst by using a great deal of cleverness and ambiguity to solve each puzzle. You clear a level by deciphering each clue on the the puzzle box completely and a challenge is issued if you wish to continue.
You need to be observant and keep a few mental notes on what items on challenges you have completed, as things don't always carry onto the next level or you may need to note something and move onto another side of the puzzle box.
The Great
Game Play: The gameplay is straight forward puzzle solving using tactile interface, but more so your wit. So you need to be clever and examine all the angles, if you run into an impasse you can always use the Hint button to help guide you.
Graphics: Played on an iPad 2 so no retina display here, but the graphics still seemed pretty well for the device and the atmosphere is highly engaging in creating a sense of dread and foreboding.
The Good
Level Design: They did a great job matching the levels and puzzles to create a mysterious atmosphere, not to spoil anything but when you get close to the end you are treated to quite a show of stars. I could not resist saying to myself, "My God, it's full of stars!"
Examination: Sometimes you need to look at things from a different angle, or through a different lens if you will. A good and simple mechanic that is well placed has good functionality.
The Bad
The Length: This is a somewhat short game that you can burn through quickly, but keep in mind it carries a $1.99 price tag and for what you get it is easily worth that price.
Conclusion [5 out of 5]
The Room is a great step towards making iOS and mobile gaming a more serious medium with games that can be enveloping and engaging on a cerebral, visual and tactile level. Solving the puzzles and reading through the notes from your benefactor help create an interesting and engaging atmosphere that will keep you baffled even after the end. This is one game that will not be null and void anytime soon.

Prepared and had for Sunday breakfast. I really enjoyed the flavor and the fact I knew what was in the pattie. The children aren't sausage people, but they enjoyed it. Good with biscuits.flag if inappropriate
I ground up 6 pounds of fairly lean pork, added 3 T of dried sage from our garden, 2 T of salt, 2 T of pepper, and 1 1/2 T of ground red pepper flakes. It turned out very tasty, and plenty 'sagey' with the spicy aftertaste lasting, not unpleasantly, for hours.flag if inappropriate
I won't rate this recipe because after reading it I would not make it for the following two reasons: not enough sage; not enough black pepper. My rule of thumb, for a true taste of sage farm sausage, is 1 tablespoon of sage per pound of ingrediants and 1 teaspoon of black pepper per pound. The rest is fine. I never really measureso precisely. It depends greatly on how freshh the sage is and the quality of it. But I must admit, I like a sagey sausage.flag if inappropriate

How can Dore support me?
Dore understands that symptoms of ADHD are linked to poor cerebellar efficiency and are concerned with reducing or removing these symptoms. Through an individual programme of personalised exercise, Dore directly seeks to improve the function of the cerebellum, the brain's 'skill centre' and in doing so alleviate some of the physical performance aspects of ADHD.
Dore uses specific tests of cerebellar function, as well as the DSM IV behavioural questions, to make assessments on how these symptoms have changed during the Programme. We also use specific cognitive tests to see how improving the symptoms of ADHD and poor cerebellar function can affect academic performance.
Dore treatment has been shown to lead to an improvement both in the function of the cerebellum which, in turn, leads to a reduction of ADHD related symptoms. Over the years, in various studies and ongoing research, Dore has had a positive and sometimes dramatic impact on the lives of those ADHD assessed children and adults who have successfully completed our Programme.

Recently I signed back up for World of Warcraft to do some testing on Windows 7 and the new ATI series of video cards. Today I wanted to cancel the account so I didn't get charged again, and had to laugh at the options for quitting. There are two drop downs to explain your reason for quitting, let's take a look:
Hmm, profession issues? Lost or stolen item? There is pretty much every possible option here except "I just don't play it" or "I don't like the game." So I chose other, and then I see:
Now I have to choose the specific reason. Do people cancel to take vacations? How long are these vacations? You pay by the month! How about the latest patch is so bad it makes you quit? I really like "I play too much" I know a few people who should use that one. It seems obvious to me, but I had to write in "I just don't play it anymore."
I guess Blizzard doesn't think that's possible.
Author's Note: Oh you silly internet peoples. It's obvious that you missed something from my blog post, and let's be clear, it's a personal blog post. It's a little thing called Satire, cousin to humor, in other words, a joke. Obviously I know that Blizzard is not that stupid, and I understand the point and subtleties of statistical analysis, I work in Business Intelligence for Pete's sake. The point was that I found it "funny" that when I just wanted to cancel, I had this huge mountain of options, some of which I found funny. Moral of this story is don't bad mouth World of Warcraft or the nerds will put down their mouses, quit their raid, and come Pwn you on your blog. *grin*

OGDENSBURG The Ogdensburg Bridge and Port Authority is planning a $10 million expansion at Ogdensburg International Airport, a project that officials say could mean an economic renaissance for the north country.
The OBPA announced the proposed expansion Friday. The project entails a 1,200-foot runway expansion, which will require the relocation of a section of Route 68 near the current end of the runway and terminal upgrades.
The Authority also plans to install a municipal water line connecting the terminal to the citys water system, and hopes to forge an agreement with the city to that end when the City Council meets Jan. 6.
Authority officials hope the expansion will attract larger air service carriers.
The initial phase will take two years to complete, OBPA Executive Director Wade A. Davis said Friday, and could result in an estimated 40,000 additional passengers flying out of Ogdensburg each year.
This project didnt just happen. Rather, it is a culmination of proactive efforts by the Authority and its partners to take on risk to attract interested airlines by promoting direct access to the fourth largest Canadian air market, Mr. Davis said in a news release. The city of Ogdensburg is a key partner in the airport expansion process.

- A consent decree was signed by the United States, Delaware, Motiva and Premcor Refining Group in September 2005. Motiva paid a $12 million penalty, performed Supplemental Environmental Projects worth a total of $6.3 million, and paid $170,175 to reimburse the EPA for its cleanup costs.
- Another $7.5 million in injunctive relief was performed by Premcor Refining Group, which purchased the Delaware City Refinery in May 2004. Premcor merged into Valero on September 1, 2005. Total settlement value was $24.2 million.
- All the requirements of the consent decree are almost complete. EPA awaits notices of completion from the companies.
- SEPS included:
- Hybrid Bus Project. Motiva purchased three hybrid transit buses for the Delaware Transit Corporation (DTC).
- Conservation Easement. Premcor granted a conservation easement to the State of Delaware, through DNREC, which shall perpetually restrict the use of 285 upland acres which are currently leased for agricultural use within the facility property. The goal of these restrictions is to eliminate the current agricultural use and prevent further development of the conservation easement in perpetuity, and to enable the land to grow back to its natural state.
- Delaware River Shellfish Restoration Project. Motiva contracted with a competent third‑party scientific organization with experience in the creation of a shellfish habitat. The objectives of the project included the introduction into the Delaware River of certain shellfish species in an attempt to: (1) assess the efficacy of shellfish introduction methods and the contribution of shellfish beds to fish and crab nursery habitats; and (2) improve water quality as the shellfish remove microscopic particles by pumping large quantities of water over their gills.
- Delaware City Fire Company Emergency Equipment Acquisition Project. The Delaware City Fire Company, No. 1, Inc. (DCFC) is a volunteer fire department located in Delaware City, Delaware. Motiva spent $165,000 on emergency equipment for the DCFC.
- Refinery Meteorologic Station Project. Motiva constructed a meteorologic station at a location in the vicinity of the Delaware City Refinery.
- Delaware River Monitoring. Motiva installed and operated a water quality monitoring station off Pea Patch Island in the Delaware River near the Delaware City Refinery for a period of five years.
- Hybrid Bus Project. Motiva purchased three hybrid transit buses for the Delaware Transit Corporation (DTC).
- EPA performed an oil inspection at Motiva's refinery located along the Delaware River in Delaware City, DE in May 2000. As a result of that inspection, EPA issued a unilateral order requiring three oil tanks to be taken out of service and 18 other oil tanks to be inspected.
- On the afternoon of July 17, 2001, a sulfuric acid tank caught fire and ruptured at the Motiva Enterprises, L.L.C. Delaware City Refinery. Adjacent sulfuric acid tanks were damaged, and approximately one million gallons of acid escaped the secondary containment through an open valve. Acid was released to the surrounding area, entered into the sewer system, and then passed through Motiva's wastewater treatment system into the Delaware River.
- As a result of the fire and explosion, eight people were injured; one was reported missing and presumed dead in the area of the spill. Over 2,400 dead fish and more than 240 dead blue crabs were observed near the sulfuric acid discharge area into the Delaware River.
- After Motiva failed to participate in good faith efforts during settlement negotiations with the state after the July 2001 fire, a federal complaint was filed in July 2002, seeking penalties and injunctive relief under the Clean Water Act, EPCRA and CERCLA cost recovery. Delaware also brought a complaint under state environmental statutes. The complaints were merged into a joint prosecution.
- On May 2, 2003, another spill of 25,000 gallons of spent acid occurred at Motiva, prompting the EPA to issue another unilateral order requiring an investigative report and the removal or remediation of all contaminated soils from the spill.
- Motiva has fulfilled the requirements of the three unilateral orders from the EPA issued in June 2000, August 2001, and May 2003. The first order was to correct violations that were discovered during a May 2000 EPA inspection; the second was in response to a July 2001 one-million-gallon acid spill, explosion and fire; and the third was in response to a May 2003 25,000-gallon acid spill.
- Motiva pleaded guilty to Clean Water Act and Clean Air Act criminal charges and paid a $10 million fine for the explosion and subsequent loss and damage. The company acknowledged that the tank involved in the incident was overdue for inspection
Key Issues: Several Refinery Safety Measures will be implemented to prevent accidental releases at the refinery:
- Alkylation Unit: Premcor will not transfer spent sulfuric acid out of the Alkylation Unit if equipment that removes hydrocarbons from the spent acid is out of service, except under emergency conditions.
- Spent sulfuric acid: Premcor managed spent sulfuric acid as if regulated by the OSHA Process Safety Management (PSM) regulation, and in accordance with EPA's accident prevention regulations.
- Process Hazard Analysis: Premcor conducted a PHA of the Alkylation Unit, of any tanks that Premcor is using to contain sulfuric acid, and all inert storage tanks and associated systems.
- Tank Inspections: Premcor conducted inspections, maintenance, and repair in accordance with API Standards 653 and 650 and with NACE Standard RP0294 of each carbon and low alloy steel tank that holds oil, acid, or any listed substance.
- Holes or Leaks in Tanks: If Premcor identifies a hole or leak in any storage tank at the Refinery holding oil, acid, or any listed substance, then Premcor's response to the hole or leak shall be approved, in a signed and dated writing, by a senior manager.
- Unsafe Condition Reports: Premcor implemented a system (attached to the Consent Decree) to ensure that unsafe conditions are documented and addressed in a timely fashion.
- Hot Work Permits: Premcor instituted a system, (detailed in the Consent Decree), to ensure that hot work permits are not issued for work in areas where there is a potential for flammable or explosive gases to be present.
- Alkylation Unit: Premcor will not transfer spent sulfuric acid out of the Alkylation Unit if equipment that removes hydrocarbons from the spent acid is out of service, except under emergency conditions.
Cleanup History
- EPA and the State of Delaware have been working cooperatively to oversee Motiva's emergency response to the July 2001 incident. On July 30, 2001, EPA Region III formally determined that the release of hazardous substances from the site presented imminent and substantial danger to public health and the environment.
- On August 1, 2001, EPA ordered Motiva to immediately:
- Provide EPA with an inventory of all tanks and their contents at the facility
- Properly drain all the remaining sulfuric acid out of the remaining tanks at the acid tank farm, and arrange for proper treatment, storage and disposal of the sulfuric acid
- Continue to monitor two of the Facility's outfalls (discharge points) for pH in order to detect any possible continuing release of sulfuric acid.
- Continue to provide appropriate site-specific health and safety measures.
- In addition, the Order also required Motiva to implement several long-term measures, including:
- Develop and implement a tank inspection/repair/removal program
- Study the extent of contamination from the release
- Remove or treat contaminated soils and other media.
- On August 24, 2001, the emergency phase of the cleanup came to a close as all the affected tanks were emptied.
- Motiva has completed the following work under EPA's order. All tanks not containing oil listed in Motiva Enterprises Response Action Plan have been inspected or have been taken out of service.
- Two fly ash settling ponds impacted by the spill have been neutralized. The acid contaminated water in both ponds has been drained.
- Motiva pleaded guilty to Clean Water Act and Clean Air Act criminal charges and paid a $10 million fine for the explosion and subsequent loss and damage. The company acknowledged that the tank involved in the incident was overdue for inspection.
Contaminants and Risks
- Sulfuric acid was the threat from this site. Sulfuric acid is harmful to skin, eyes, teeth, and respiratory system. When the sulfuric acid was released, eight people were injured, one person was missing and presumed dead and over 2,400 dish and 240 blue crabs died.
- Contaminant descriptions and associated risk factors are available at: (ATSDR web site).
