Rising From The Ashes
Written By: Mary Sedor

A devastating fire proved to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for attachment maker Craig Manufacturing.
For some, a devastating fire
could spell ruin. But for Craig Manufacturing, an attachment manufacturer based in Hartland, New Brunswick, Canada, a recent fire proved to be an opportunity to streamline operations.
On May 7, 2005, a fire completely destroyed Craig Manufacturing's facility. The company's security system alterted of a high temperature in the building around 8:20 p.m., and the fire department was dispatched. John Craig, president, arrived on the scene and were able to retrieve the company's file server from the building. Around 9:30 p.m., Craig realized the fire showed no signs of stopping. Soon the fire department was able to contain the fire, but they were unable to save the building.
As firefighters quelled the embers of the smoldering attachment business, a few feet away company executives held a meeting to discuss rebuilding. John Craig and his team looked over the charred timbers and remaining pieces of the building's foundation and resolved to analyze everything about the attachment
business from the ground up.
"We met again the next morning at 7 a.m., and it's been nonstop ever since," says John Craig.
A Streamlining Opportunity
The 60-year-old company was started by Woodford Craig, John Craig's father. The business began as a small service station selling gas and performing automotive repairs, and like most other small businesses was constantly evolving.
Woodford Craig decided to return to his background as a machinist and began making machine component parts, which eventually led him to completing larger fabrications for a snow plow company. From there the company grew and began manufacturing heavy equipment attachments.
Today Craig manufactures attachments for loaders, motor graders and excavators - everything from thumbs, forks, grapples and quick couplers to buckets and plows.
With a strong sense of community, concern for staff and a long family history, there was little discussion about whether or not to rebuild - the question was how quickly it could be done.
The team had to start from scratch - the company didn't have a paperclip to its name.
"Everything we had accumulated over the years - all of the production equipment, tools, and every brochure - it was all gone," says John Craig. "The only thing we saved was the file server. We took a look at everything.
"The fire was a devastating experience but it also provided a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to streamline everything from quotation to production."
The previous 43,000-square-foot facility was one the company had grown into. As more room was needed, it was expanded.
"With the old facility, sometimes efficiency and flow were sacrificed as we added on pieces," says John Craig. "Building the new facility gave us an opportunity to have a clean slate. We used it to plan a facility that would meet existing and future needs."
During the rebuilding process the company embraced the Lean Manufacturing philosophy of waste elimination and continuous improvement. Additions include an integrated computer sales quotation order entry program, 3-D modeling software, efficient material flow and computer workstations on the plant floor.
"Now everything is computer-controlled," says John Craig. "The inventory control system, sales orders and quotations are all computerized, as well as the welding process."
December 5, 2005, the new 71,000-square-foot facility was completed. Seven days later, short-term manufacturing staff moved into the acility. And by December 23, just 229 days after the fire, the company was operational.
The company celebrated its official opening and 60th Anniversary on May 6, 2006, 364 days after the fire.
Dealer Loyalty
According to the company, dealer relationships remained strong throughout the rebuilding process.
"A large number of our equipment dealers have been very supportive," says John Craig. "They've waited patiently and stood by us through the whole process. Customer loyalty, support and patience is something that is sometimes in short supply, but we got our fair share and we're certainly appreciative."
Many of Craig Manufacturing's existing customers are AED members.
"We're an AED member, and we value our relationship with our dealers," says John Craig. "We're always looking for equipment dealers who are in need of a dependable quality supplier of attachments."
Craig Manufacturing prides itself on its customer support and service.
"We make doing business with us fairly easy," says John Craig. "We're customer service oriented. The product arrives onsite and does the job it's been designed to do. We offer a quality product at a competitive price."
Through the rebuilding process,
the company has had the opportunity to improve its ability to care for its customers.
"We've learned a lot about the importance of being a good supplier," says John Craig.
"We just didn't put back the same old business in the same old way. We changed everything in order to be more efficient and better serve our customers."

HLA-DRB1 alleles encoding the shared epitope (SE) susceptibility sequence predispose to rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Having two copies results in even higher risk. This study analyzes whether the contribution of the second SE allele to RA risk is identical to that of the first SE allele.
In a meta-analysis of 44 datasets of case–control studies meeting pre-defined criteria, the odds ratios OR1/0 and OR2/1 are calculated, as an estimate of the relative risk for RA for individuals having one compared with zero, or two compared with one SE allele; from these, the ratio OR2/1:OR1/0 is calculated.
Overall the weighted mean ratio OR2/1:OR1/0 (95% confidence interval) was 0.90 (0.80–1.01). In the 39 studies in which all patients met the ACR criteria for RA, the overall ratio OR2/1:OR1/0 is 0.89 (0.78–1.01; see Fig. 1). In a multiple regression analysis on a group level the ratio OR2/1:OR1/0 was not influenced by racial origin, the frequency of compound heterozygosity (0401/0404 or 0401/0408), the percentage of female or rheumatoid factor-positive patients, disease duration or age at disease onset.
Figure 1. Ratio OR2/1:OR1/0 (see Methods) with 95% confidence interval of the 44 study groups and the overall weighted mean.
The contribution of the second SE allele to RA risk does not differ significantly from that of the first SE allele. This result will help to pool immunogenetic data across populations, resulting in a detailed description of the contribution of immunogenetic factors to RA risk.
In addition this finding implies that pathogenetic models for RA that incorporate the role of HLA should explain the fact that the first and the second SE alleles increase RA risk equally. Such effects might, for example, be described for models incorporating presentation of pathogenic antigenic peptides.

SANDY SPRINGS, Ga. -- Authorities say a 77-year-old store owner who told a teenager not to bring a bicycle inside was kicked so hard that it broke two of his ribs.
WSB-TV reports that Walter Kwon was trying to handle the unruly teen at his laundromat on Northwood Drive when police say he was attacked.
Video surveillance from inside the store shows the moments leading up the attack, as Kwon confronts a teenager.
Police said the teen later kicked him, cracking two ribs, outside the store.
Authorities say the teen is believed to be about 16 years old.
Kwon is a grandfather of nine. His wife, Christine Kwon, said he's in a great deal of pain and has been away from work for the past week.

|Factors associated with voice therapy outcomes in the treatment of presbyphonia.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 20513037 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: Age, vocal fold atrophy, glottic closure pattern, and the burden of medical problems are associated with voice therapy outcomes for presbyphonia. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective. METHODS: Records of patients seen over a 3-year period at a voice center were screened. Inclusion criteria consisted of age over 55 years, primary complaint of hoarseness, presence of vocal fold atrophy on examination, and absence of laryngeal or neurological pathology. Videostroboscopic examinations on initial presentation were reviewed. Voice therapy outcomes were assessed with the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association National Outcomes Measurement System scale. Statistical analysis was performed with Spearman rank correlation and chi(2) tests. RESULTS: Sixty-seven patients were included in the study. Of the patients, 85% demonstrated improvement with voice therapy. The most common type of glottic closure consisted of a slit gap. Gender or age had no effect on voice therapy outcomes. Larger glottic gaps on initial stroboscopy examination and more pronounced vocal fold atrophy were weakly correlated with less improvement from voice therapy. A weak correlation was also found between the number of chronic medical conditions and poorer outcomes from voice therapy. CONCLUSIONS: The degree of clinician-determined improvement in vocal function from voice therapy is independent of patient age but is influenced by the degree of vocal fold atrophy, glottic closure pattern, and the patient's burden of medical problems.

Groundwater Uranium Treated in Marshfield, Vt.
AdEdge Technologies, Inc.'s Uranium Adsorption system helps Marshfield, Vt. To clean up its groundwater.
AdEdge Technologies, Inc. announces successful results of its AD92 Uranium Adsorption Treatment System to treat high levels of naturally occurring groundwater uranium in the Village of Marshfield, Vt. The town now consumes source water after being served only bottled water for four years.
Installed in July 2007, the system featured a twin AD92–80 Adsorption treatment system rated for up to 160 gpm using anion exchange media. This media is a specialty anion exchange resin for uranium removal, and provides a greater resistance to organic fouling than other media. Initial testing conducted by the Village of Marshfield showed non-detectable levels, below the 30 ug/L MCL for uranium.
"AD92 technology is ideal for use in potable water applications such as the Village of Marshfield, as well as non-potable and environmental remediation applications for removal of naturally occurring uranium," said Greg Gilles, Vice President, AdEdge Technologies.

Getting something published is not all that difficult. Following School Arts
guidlines, I wrote and submitted two articles. I was surprised when they
were both accepted and published one year later. A couple things: They
severely edit the work. This can be good or bad, but it was a bit of a shock
to see all the changes. The other thing is that the pay is very low for a
published article. That was dissappointing. The good thing is that it is
wonderful to have on a resume. It does give you credibility. Any incoming
principal eye's open wide when it is mentioned or noticed. Everytime my
principal runs visitors through my room, that is what is said to the guests.
So it does lend credibililty and well worth it.
So go for it!

Jill and Chef Eric Skokan have created an organic 130 acre farm located just outside of the city that now supplies the bounty of the restaurant, a booth at the Boulder Farmers' Market, and CSA's. At Black Cat Farm, we grow 250 heirloom and heritage cultivars that range from some of the old regional classics to the exotics. Because we harvest at the farm every day, we select varieties for flavor, not for storage and transportation which is all too common these days. We also raise Tunis and Karakul sheep, Mulefoot and Hereford pigs, Freedom Ranger chickens, heritage turkeys and geese.
The huge variety of produce grown allows Chef Skokan a limitless palate of flavors, colors and textures from which to build his award-winning cuisine. The Black Cat's menu changes daily and always has a sense of discovery and delight.
Enjoy all the farm has to offer this season at the Boulder Farmer's Market every Saturday morning. Jill and Chef Skokan tend the stand with tastes of the week's produce, recipes, lots of cooking tips and stories about the farm.

Adair Nets Seven Goals To Lead Pacific To A Pair Of Wins In Women's Water Polo
Seeing two games of action at the Aggie Shootout, the No. 20 Pacific women's water polo team came out of Davis with two wins as the Tigers took down Concordia, 12-3, before defeating Santa Clara, 9-4, on Sunday, March 3. With the wins the Tigers pushed their record to 10-6 on the year.
Opening play at the tournament, the Tigers made short work of Concordia as Pacific used a big first quarter to bury the Eagles. In the opening frame, the Tigers netted five goals to the Eagles one as sophomore Taylor Adair took control of the match with three goals. In addition to the Tigers offense going to work, junior Michelle Renton continued to prove to be one of the best in goal as the netminder fended off an Eagle penalty shot to keep Concordia at bay. She would stop a second penatly shot in the third as she posted 10 saves in the game.
After the big first, the Tigers cruised over the next two quarters, notching three goals in the second and four more in the first to complete their scoring. With Adair doing the heavy lifting in the first quarter, it was her classmate Brydie Pye who finished off the Eagles as the second-year utility notched three goals in the middle two periods to put the game away. In total, the two sophomores each scored four goals a piece to lead Pacific's attacking efforts.
With one win under their caps in the morning, the Tigers went back to work in the afternoon to grab their second victory of the day. Taking on a pesky Bronco squad, the Tigers used a staunch defense and a steady offense to swim away with the victory.
Holding the Broncos to just one first half goal, the Tigers picked up another stellar effort in the net by Renton as the junior posted five saves in the half and eight total for the game. With Renton shutting down the Bronco attack, Pacific again looked towards Adair for their scoring efforts as the sophomore notched a match-high three goals, nearly outscoring the Broncos on her own. For Adair, the big pull came in the third quarter when she notched two of the Tigers' three goals as Pacific pulled away from Santa Clara.
Pacific continues its nonconference schedule Saturday, March 9, when it begins play at the Roadrunner Invitational. The Tigers first game of the tournament will be against Wagner as the two teams meet in the pool at 10:15 a.m.

Club Registrars and Administrators, if you will be handling the registration for your teams, please let them know so we do not get duplicate registrations.

Once you have registered your club, you will be able to log in to your club account, go to the "Club" tab, click on "Teams" in the dark menu bar, then enroll multiple teams at once by using the "Register Teams in" drop down box.
Coaches and team managers, if you will be registering your team, you will need your team login ID and password. If you do not know it, please contact your club Registrar/Administrator. Make sure you let them know the reason you need it in case they are planning to register all the teams for your club.
At the CAYSA Governing Board Meeting on August 6, 2015, CAYSA members approved the applications of San Marcos Area Youth Soccer and Liverpool FC America as CAYSA member clubs. San Marcos Area Youth Soccer is a former CAYSA member that was reinstated upon request, while Liverpool FC America is a new club with teams in both the South Austin and Temple areas.
San Marcos Youth Soccer was recently honored by STYSA with awards for the 2015 STYSA Volunteer of the Year and the 2015 Scholar Athlete of the Year. We are proud to have these outstanding volunteers and players join our CAYSA family.
Congratulations ladies on the amazing win! Great job coming out with a bang and representing your country with great pride! Carli Lloyd with the first half hat trick, finishing it off with a goal from midfield. Just spectacular. The fireworks from the fourth of July didn't stop! Five... two... Any questions?

A man accused of murdering his wife in what he calls a mercy killing was in court Tuesday.
Chris Chumbley told WKYT cameras from jail last week his wife, Virginia, was dying of breast cancer, and she asked him to shoot her.
In a preliminary hearing in Laurel County Monday, Chumbley's attorney wanted his murder charge to be changed to a causing or assisting suicide charge, instead. The judge ruled against the request, leaving Chumbley's charge to murder.
The case will now be sent to a grand jury.

Before moving to a new area, you'll want to look into the rules and regulations of the community to be sure that you and your pet(s) will be a good fit. Find out ahead of time if there are any limitations on the number of dogs or cats that are allowed in an apartment, and make sure to double check the information with the building you are moving to and make absolutely sure you are in compliance. Also ask about any size requirements.
Also take the time to make sure your dog is welcome in the community where your new apartment is located. Dog breed bans are becoming more widespread in various cities throughout the nation. If you own a dog such as a pit bull or Rottweiler, you might find some towns will not allow your pet to live there. Some places will require a special license with a higher fee for certain breeds, while others may require your dog to be muzzled when it's in public.
Check out the neighborhood parks in the area to make sure they allow dogs. It is also a good idea to know the leash laws in a new town before heading out for a walk. Certain communities may also have exercise areas or even dog parks.

Year: Junior.
Position: Outside hitter.
Nickname: Barnie.
Family: Parents, Steve and MaryBeth; Sisters, Alyssa and Addie.
Notable: Wa a first-team all-Wisconsin Volleyball Coaches Association selection. ... Was also a unanimous all-Fox Valley Association first-team selection. ... Helped lead Neenah to a berth in the WIAA Division 1 state quarterfinals and a perfect 27-0 match record in the FVA. ... Finished with 452 kills with 41 aces, 73 block kills and 284 digs.
On The Court
Q: Your team reached the WIAA state quarterfinals in Division 1 a few weeks ago. Do you replay that game in your mind and wonder what might have been?
A: I did wonder if our cards were dealt a little differently, what would have happened, but thats not what actually happened. So I am just grateful for the opportunity and looking forward to what will come. It was an absolutely amazing experience to have with my team and I will never forget it.
Q: What were some of the improvements that you made as a player this past season?
A: My goals this year were to improve my back row play in serve receive and defense. I also wanted to step into my role as a leader for my teammates. Coach (Bruce Moriarty) and (assistant coaches Ashley Calhoun) and (Emily Bennett) really helped push me out of my comfort zone so I could develop as a more well-rounded player.
Q: What makes Neenah different from other schools in terms of the great tradition your team has?
A: I know when I was younger going to the camps, I looked up to the players and girls and knew I wanted to do everything I could to be like them. The atmosphere created around our volleyball program is one that makes you proud to be around. Also the coaching philosophies (Moriarty) has brought to the program are definitely apart of our success because of his passion for the game and how he instills that in his players.
Q: Whats the biggest difference between Haley Barnes, freshman player and Haley Barnes, junior player?
A: The biggest difference is when I was a freshman, I went out on the court every game and played as hard as I could for my team. Now I still play as hard as I can, but I have a bigger role for my team and it involves more that just being a player.
The Offseason
Q: How much time do you put in the offseason with club teams and such. Any interesting places that youve traveled to?
A: I invest a lot of time in the offseason, I will play club volleyball for Milwaukee Sting 17 Gold this year and I can't wait until practice! It starts up right after Thanksgiving and continues until the end of June. We travel to a lot of places but my favorite would have to be going to Orlando, Florida for nationals in June.
Q: How do you balance the time you put into volleyball with your academics and social life as a student?
A: It can be a challenge at times, but time management and prioritizing are key factors. I have great help from my family and friends and always try to make time for them because they mean so much to me and are so much fun to be around!
This and That
Q: What are some of the top artists on your iPod?
A: Lady Antebellum, John Mayer, Chis Brown, Usher
Q: What are three things that you would buy if you won a million dollars?
A: A puppy, a surfboard and really good chocolate.
Q: If you could have your choice of these super powers, which one would you choose: super strength, invisibility or super speed?
A: When I was younger I always wanted to have invisibility powers so I would be really good at the game grounders, so we will go with that.
Q: If you could change one rule in volleyball, what would it be?
A: Back row attacks have to be behind the 10ft line.
What the experts say
Neenah head coach Bruce Moriarty: Haley is that rare athlete thats supremely talented and has a work ethic to match. She strives every day to be a totally complete player and wont rest until every facet of her game is the best it can be. Shes also the consummate teammate, a terrific leader and just a joy to coach. Haley Barnes will only continue to get better, not just because she wants it, but she has the ability to make it happen.

But recent builds will be tightly locked away by a pair of pentalobe screws -- an obscure five-point star-pattern screw head with no commercially-available drivers, yet.We first started seeing the five-pointed fixing on the mid-2009 MacBook Pro, as a way to deter would-be repairmen from swapping out the laptop's battery. But then it started cropping up in iOS devices around the world, including the Japanese iPhone 4.Now it's making its way to US and UK phones. In fact, two people from the UK confirmed to us that an iPhone 4 bought near launch featured Phillips-head screws, while a recently purchased (just a few weeks old) device had the nasty new pentalobes.But if you got your iPhone 4 a while back, you're not out of the woods yet: iFixit reports that Apple Store staff will replace your screws, without telling you, if your take your iPhone in for service. Of course, no consumer electronics screw stays locked-down for long, and even the most obscure head patterns can be opened with the right driver. They're called tamper-resistant, not tamper-proof, because their main focus is to make product "vandalism" annoyingly inconvenient.Remember, even the Torx screw was initially used to keep prying eyes and amateur tinkerers out of consumer electronics like games consoles. Nowadays, you can buy a set of 28 Torx screwdrivers for a tenner from Maplin.To that end, iFixit is offering up an " iPhone 4 Liberation Kit", packed with a screwdriver (while not a true pentalobe driver, it "gets the job done") to rescue your iPhone, and even a pair of Phillips-head screws to replace the pentalobes. Edited by Nate Lanxon Comments One of the easiest ways to get around these strange screw-heads is using a regular philips driver, but put an elastic band between the driver and head. The band moulds into the odd head shape and generally provides enough friction to remove it without stripping the head. Chris Jan 21st 2011 Nice looking screws, much sexier than those old Philips that the Android guys use! Rob Follis Jan 21st 2011 Another proprietary screw won't matter to Stockholm Syndrome affected Apple fans. jph Jan 21st 2011 This is gonna make Corey Doctorow foam at the mouth haha!!

5 ways to help support Ohio agriculture
Buckeye Farm News
If you believe in Ohio Farm Bureaus efforts to protect farmers, stand up for animal agriculture, promote locally grown foods, advocate for good government and communicate with consumers, the organization needs your help. More than ever, farmers are needed to join together to address a multitude of issues facing agriculture and rural Ohio.
Our issue influence and financial strength is based on our strong grassroots network, said John Wargowsky, OFBF senior director of field communications. We need to continue to grow our membership base if we are going to tackle the challenges that we face.
Heres how you can help:
Attend a local membership rally to learn how you can get involved in Farm Bureaus membership campaign. Some rallies have already been held, but others are scheduled over the next month. County information is available at www.ofbf.org/counties.
Ask friends and neighbors to join Farm Bureau. Printable membership forms are available and you can join online at www.ofbf.org. Click on Benefits and Membership then Become a Member.
Are you attending a meeting or an event where individuals might be interested in Farm Bureaus cause or the organizations member benefits? Farm Bureau county offices have materials you can share.
Several Ohio businesses have provided Farm Bureau memberships as a perk for their employees. Talk with your employer or another local business if you think they could benefit from a relationship with Farm Bureau.
County Farm Bureaus need volunteers at local events, such as Farmers Share Breakfasts, who can provide information about the organization to those in attendance. Contact your county office to learn about opportunities for involvement.

IPTV, or Internet Protocol Television, is the delivery of television over the Internet instead of via traditional TV formats. Tulane Technology Services has partnered with Cox Campus Connect to bring IPTV to Tulane residence halls and throughout the Tulane campus.
IPTV delivers a cable television-like lineup to the users' desktop (Mac and Windows) and mobile devices (iOS, Andriod & Kindle). Eventually, your gaming devices (Playstation, X-Box , etc.) will be IPTV capable, too. The Tulane IPTV service is intended for on-campus residents and is only available over the Tulane network - you won't be able to connect from off-campus.
At this time, IPTV does not offer the full lineup of cable TV and local broadcast channels, but that is changing, with services being added throughout the year. Currently, IPTV is being offered in conjunction with traditional cable TV service to the residence halls. At some future date, Tulane anticipates dropping all CATV (wired) service in favor of IPTV.
Desktop or laptop: Download and install the IPTV app to get started. Remember, the app won't work unless you are Tulane uptown campus resident.
Download IPTV client for Windows
Download IPTV client for Mac
If you already have an earlier version of the Tulane/Cox IPTV desktop app loaded on your computer, you must uninstall before installing a new version.
Mobile Devices:
iPhone & iTouch: Visit the Apple iTunes site for Cox TV Connect (Campus Connect)
iPad: Visit the Apple iTunes site for Cox TV Connect (Campus Connect)
Android devices: Visit the Google Play site for Cox Campus Connect (Cox TV Connect)
Kindle Fire: Visit the Amazon.com page for Cox Campus Connect (Cox TV Connect)
NOTE: if the Cox TV Connect application asks you to specify a "Service" select "Tulane" from the list, not "Residential"
Who gets to watch IPTV?
IPTV is available to all students living in the residence halls on the Tulane uptown campus.
What equipment do I need to watch IPTV on my desktop?
The IPTV desktop app is available for Mac and PC. The application will operate under Mac OS X 1.6 and higher, and current versions of Windows (Vista, Win7, Win8). Best results when using the latest hardware; the minimum and recommended requirements are:
PC minimum specs
PC recommended specs
Mac minimum specs
Mac recommended specs
Can I watch IPTV with a smartphone or tablet?
Yes you can! There are IPTV apps for iOS devices (iPhone, iPad and iTouch), Android devices, and Kindle Fires. Visit the Apple iTunes App store, Google Play, or Amazon.com and search for "Cox TV Connect."
WIll I be able to watch the local broadcast channels with IPTV?
The local broadcast channels have not been included in this stage of the IPTV pilot. These channels will be added to the channel lineup at a later date.
Why isn't my favorite cable TV channel on the IPTV lineup?
IPTV is new technology and the television networks are still deciding how they want to license their content. Tulane's IPTV partner, Cox Communications, is actively negotiating with the various network providers to bring you the programming you most want to see. Expect more additions to the channel lineup as new deals are struck.
What are my IPTV username and password?
When you launch the IPTV app you will be asked to enter your username and password - use your Tulane email address and password.
Can I watch IPTV on my television?
If you can connect a computer to your TV, then yes you can. Future IPTV developments include ser tip boxes, and IPTV is fully adopted at Tulane, then expect to see future developments such as IPTV app's for game consoles (XBox, Playstation) and additional mobile devices.
I don't live on campus - can I get IPTV, too?
Sorry, but as IPTV is funded by housing fees, the service is limited to those who live in the on-campus residence halls.
I live in a Tulane residence hall and should have access to IPTV but the application says I do not - why?
To confirm whether you are included in the IPTV group, send your name, Tulane username, and the name of the residence hall you live in to email@example.com
What is IPTV going to cost me?
There will be no extra charge for IPTV. Just like the existing campus cable TV system, the cost to operate IPTV is built in to your residence hall contract.
Why does it take so long to change channels?
As with all digital television systems, there is a lag between the time you choose a channel and when the image is displayed as the new channel data is requested from the server and then buffered for playback. Lag time is increased on a slow network connection.
Will IPTV replace the TUCAN cable TV network currently in all the residence halls?
If the IPTV pilot proves to be successful, then yes - it will eventually replace the campus traditional cable TV network.
Didn't answer your question? Write to email@example.com
The channel lineup for the Tulane IPTV service is continuously updated as new agreements are reached. Check the lineup often to see what's been added.
Do you have questions or comments about the Tulane IPTV service? Tell us now! Write to firstname.lastname@example.com
IPTV is simple to use. Once you've downloaded and installed the app, simply launch and choose a program from the channel guide. Use the channel guide arrows to move through the channels. Use the control bar to resize, fill the screen, mute, or raise and lower audio.
The image freezes, the audio stutters, or the image resolution is poor
The IPTV system will run over the wireless network but the best results often come from a wired connection. If you are in an area with poor or congested wireless connectivity, attach your computer to the network with an Ethernet cable and try again.
The audio still stutters and the application quits without warning sometimes
The IPTV app is very processor intensive and can be affected by other apps you are running simultaneously. Shut down some of your other apps and relaunch IPTV.
The IPTV app won't launch and gives me an error that says I'm not on the Tulane network
The IPTV app says that I have entered an invalid User ID or Password. Please try again
I just loaded a new version of the IPTV app and now it doesn't work
You must first UNINSTALL the IPTV app before installing a new version

Help With Size Of Breeches
Hi I am looking into buying a pair of english breeches to ride in, and I was wondering how do you figure out your size? I am not a small girl by any means, I wear a sz 16 in street clothes. Thanks for any help!
do you have a tack shop near by where you could go try on as many brands/types/sizes as you want ?
Not at all. The closest one is about 50 miles away, and is a western shop.

Mid-Autumn Festival mooncakes
What we say:
There's nothing like a good holiday to shake you out of your rainy season blues and luckily for the Saigonese we get just that. Mid-Autumn Festival, Tet Trung Thu, the celebration of the fall equinox, occurs on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, or somewhere between September and early October on the Western calendar. Preparation for the celebration starts early and every year, about a month before the Mid-Autumn Festival begins, colourful shops pop up selling the holiday's traditional gift: the mooncake, a small pastry with many different fillings. Here's a quick guide to mooncakes in Saigon.
Traditionally given as gifts, the pastry mooncake is Mid-Autumn Festival's most important food item. The cake is heavy with symbolism, with the round cake representing the sky, and the more popular, in Saigon, square-shaped cakes symbolising the Earth. The top of the cake is most commonly the home to an imprint that represents the imperial Nguyen family.
The filling of the cake varies; most common in the city is the sweet mixture of lotus seed and ground beans but fillings of chicken, pork, and mung bean are also popular. Usually the filling also contains an egg, which symbolises the moon — thus the name.
They are sometimes referred to as Asia's fruitcake, a food that is given as a gift but largely disliked by the recipients, but I don't think they're that bad, although I did eat an old one that had been in the refrigerator for awhile — not so good.
If you're on the hunt for someone selling mooncakes, look no further than the side of the road where start-up shops, with their bright red colours and hanging lanterns, stand out among their surroundings. If you're looking for an individual mooncake, options range from the small classic 30,000 VND lotus seed version to the larger 100,000 VND savoury meat cakes. If you want to give that special someone a bigger gift they have just the thing: gift sets, which are bright, fancy boxes opening to reveal multiple mooncakes inside. A set of four will usually start around 200,000 VND.
Mooncakes are only made this time of year, making them a seasonal delicacy to their fans. So, if you're cruising by a cake shop on your motorbike, take this chance to join in the festivities and give mooncakes a try — you may find a new treat.Last updated: 19th September, 2014

A unique opportunity to live and work as an international intern in Hong Kong, with StandOut Internships.
Working during the university holidays can be a great way to earn some extra money and if done right it can build on your skills and knowledge
The majority of students will take up some form of full or part-time employment in order to give them a better standard of living at university. However, if you are not a UK or EEA domiciled student, there may be restrictions on the number of hours per week you are allowed to work during the holidays. If you are unsure about your entitlement to work whilst on your course, visit UKCISA: UK Council for International Student Affairs - Working in the UK during your studies or talk to a careers adviser.
As some businesses become busier around Christmas, Easter and the summer, they will require more staff, resulting in vacation work being easier to find. For example if you want to work in the hospitality industry then finding vacation work at a seaside hotel during the summer is a good idea. You should visit your careers service or university job shop to see what on-campus opportunities are available to current students. You can also try:
For work experience, see the country profiles in working abroad.
You will have to write a successful job application and attend an interview although it is likely to be less competitive than applying for a permanent job. If you will be looking after young or vulnerable people, for example helping in a summer playgroup, you will need to have a Disclosure and Barring Service check as well.
Wages are often paid monthly, sometimes weekly and are worked out by an hourly rate. Depending on your chosen role, subsidised travel and lunches and attendance at in-house training courses may also be part of the benefits.
Once you have secured vacation work, make sure that you are given a written contract, detailing the terms and conditions of your employment. If you do not receive one, then ask.
The benefits of vacation work can include:
You will also have gained an employer referee for your CV, when the time comes to apply for graduate positions.
Most vacation work does not attract academic credits, but the chance to learn valuable interpersonal skills will be useful in any career. For some courses, vacation work (in the form of work placements) will be compulsory and therefore formally assessed or accredited. Assessments vary and might include the completion of specific tasks or projects, writing a report or reflective log, or using the learning in another assignment or course activity.
In some sectors, such as law, vacation work is necessary to improve your employability. Doing a vacation scheme with a large firm or government organisation gives you the opportunity to develop new skills and demonstrate your potential to the firm. These schemes can also form part of the selection process for training contracts. To find a vacation scheme in your area, search for law vacation placements.

Define honesty. It's a very heavy word. One that gives all of us pause when we think of it. As I am writing this, I am watching a TV show where the premise is that an attorney fakes his graduation from Harvard and operates as an attorney at a prestigious law firm lying daily. The lie seems to be catching up to him. The guilt, the deceit, and "Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive."
This quote is often attributed to Shakespeare, but was actually written by Sir Walter Scott. A little trivia from Bonnie.
Back to my subject, honesty is defined as uprightness and fairness. Of all the ...

Richard Howorth opened Square Books in Oxford in 1979 with his wife, Lisa.

JACKSON, Miss. -- Richard Howorth was 28 when he and wife Lisa put up $10,000 of their own money and another $10,000 from a bank loan in 1979 to open Square Books in Oxford. It has since become one of the primary destinations of America's top authors to promote their books.
And now this: The independent bookstore has been named No. 1 in the country by Publishers Weekly, the international news website of book publishing and book selling

Movie Review: "Emperor"
Peter Webber's "Emperor" offers a look back at a part of history many are not familiar with, and it gives us the pleasure of watching Tommy Lee Jones portraying General MacArthur. However, it is undone by a love story which takes away from the plot which is far more interesting.
"Emperor" is one of those movies that come across as a frustratingly missed opportunity. It's the first contemporary Hollywood film set during the U.S.-led occupation of Japan at the close of World War II, and it uncovers a part of history that many people are not fully aware. But in the process of delving into the subject of whether a world leader should be punished for crimes against humanity, "Emperor" gets bogged down with a love story which takes away from the movie it could have been.
The story begins with an airplane descending into a Japan that has been decimated by atomic bombs that were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II, and the country has since announced its surrender. Coming out of that plane is General Douglas MacArthur (Tommy Lee Jones) who has been tasked by President Harry S. Truman to restore order in Japan and prepare the country for democratic elections (sound familiar?). But the one big problem MacArthur has to contend with before any of this can happen is of what to do with Emperor Hirohito (Takatarô Kataoka); should this man be made to stand trial for brutal war crimes, or is there another way of moving Japan forward without having to do that?
MacArthur ends up assigning General Bonner Fellers (Matthew Fox) to find out if Hirohito was in anyway responsible for war crimes that were carried out, and if he was the one who ordered the devastating attack on Pearl Harbor. The scenes where Fellers does his investigation and gathers evidence from survivors and Japanese military officers are among the film's most fascinating moments. We all know how World War II ended, but it's these specific details about this operation that are very illuminating because we never got to read about them in history books.
But it turns out that Fellers has an ulterior motive for going to Japan; he wants to search for his long lost love Aya Shimada (Eriko Hatsune), a Japanese school teacher whom he met and fell in love with years before. There are flashbacks where we see how their relationship started and of how it eventually brought Fellers to Japan and it proves to be a good device to show the cultural differences between it and America. At the same time the romance subplot really just slows the whole movie down, and I found myself getting bored. Had the movie focused more on the investigation into the Emperor's activities, it would have been much better.

Live Celtic Wedding Music - Duo Playing Celtic Harp and Flute
Also Irish Bouzouki and Uilleann Pipes
This Duo is an instrumental act playing Celtic harp and flute, and other instruments. Theyspecialise in performing traditional Celtic instrumental background music for weddings, receptions, parties, corporate functions and other events.They are available for bookings throughout the UK and beyond
They are also available for concerts, recitals, folk festivals and clubs.

The Celtic harp is a very suitable and atmospheric instrument for background music at such events. Combined with the flute or low D whistle the effect is quite magical. We can play for your wedding ceremony, reception, or both.
One has worked as a professional musician for over 20 years, specialising in traditional Celtic music, and this has included very many performances at weddings and other events.
The other is an excellent flute player, uilleann piper, and whistle player, and is also very accomplished on many other instruments.
As a duo they have played for many, many events, both public and private, including folk festivals, concerts, folk clubs, corporate events, art gallery exhibitions, and weddings in many varied venues including country hotels, manor houses and castles etc.
For weddings they usually play during the wedding reception, from the guests' arrival, through the meal up to the beginning of the speeches. They are also happy to play for the wedding ceremony itself; for the guests' arrival at the ceremony, the bride's entrance, and during interludes such as the signing of the register.
As well as the sparkling gentle sounds of the harp and flute or whistle, there is also the option of lively jigs and reels played on the uilleann pipes and bouzouki, maybe for later on in the proceedings.
"We would like to thank you again for playing at our wedding ....... The music was perfect and exactly what we had hoped for. So many of our guests said it was such a nice change and a great touch to the ceremony and throughout dinner."

The digital age changed the way businesses carry out marketing promotions. In recent times, internet promotion steadily gains additional benefits over utilization of classic media. The web gives low cost plus efficient ways to speak with targeted market segments. It has a wider reach when compared with almost any platform. For businesses, this could cause a handy promotion place. You don't have to change from one platform to another. You may already reach out to as much people with the world wide web alone. The transforming position of the online world draws attentions to the significance of having a site and investing on website design. With no great site plus web design Calgary, your web promotional initiatives go down the sink.
First Impressions Matter Over the internet
Internet marketing depends predominantly on first opinions. You lose probable sales if you don't attract users upon initial look. Web page design can affect the way buyers respond to you. A cluttered website readily turns them off while a well-organized page takes in awareness. Nowadays, you may tell whether a business is good through their web design. People see which companies put thought on the website and which do not. This indicates the company's degree of devotion.
If you are not patient enough to improve your website's layout, users will not expect the same commitment. Dedication manifests in different aspects of your business. Maintaining quality all throughout including promotions encourages positive brand perception. Create enough curiosity to convince the user to see what you have to say. Base your web design on the needs and preferences of your target market.
Less expensive than Other Promotional Items
A very good web design does a lot more marketing as opposed to lots of published press. Further, it less expensive. You don't have to spend products just like flyers, billboards, and tarpaulins. You should only have to work with a Calgary web designer for the job. This can be less expensive than investing in the development prices of all published media available. Moreover, you may does not have to update your web design consistently. Simply plan a typical period for revamping your website. Typically, websites don't have to go an entire overhaul except if it hardly derives visitors.
Designing your internet site appropriately can merit points from search engines. People depend more on search engines to search out services and products. Being focused on your site gives you a lot more potential prospects. How you show up on search results appeal to or push persons aside.
Better Marketing Potential
After initial impression, an excellent web design can convince users to browse even more. Your website layout should reflect your expertise in the business. An amateurish design will not cut it. A professionally designed website makes it easier for users to find what they need.
Hire a Professional
Don't take chances. Allow a specialist supplier cope with your Calgary web design. You avoid messing up your internet site and sacrificing great buyers. Third party suppliers have the competence to handle the work. They might also offer web appointment plus monthly updates. This lets you concentrate more on various components of your company.

Alienware m15x first 15-inch with Quadro FX 3600M
updated 02:00 pm EDT, Tue July 29, 2008
AWare m15 Quadro FX 3600M
Alienware this afternoon turned its m15x gaming notebook into a 3D modeling workstation with the introduction of an option for NVIDIA's top-end Quadro FX 3600M chipset. The portable is the first 15.4-inch notebook anywhere to hold the graphics chip and uses the extra headroom for much faster work rendering 3D effects, CAD, or other projects in DirectX 10 or OpenGL 2.1 without having to resort to a 17-inch desktop replacement or else a slower graphics chipset.
Adding an FX 3600M lifts the price of the base $1,499 m15x by $600 without changing the base performance selections of a 2.1GHz Core 2 Duo, 1GB of memory and a 120GB hard drive. Alienware has also added a recommended system for high-end mobile use at a $3,445 price for a 2.6GHz Core 2 Duo, a high-resolution 1920x1200 LCD, 4GB of memory and a 250GB disk. Models equipped with the upgrade should start shipping August 5th if ordered today.

A New Look Lobby…
If you come by the Circus Hostel over the next couple of weeks you will see members of the Circus team and some skilled craftspeople working hard at improving our reception area and lobby on the ground floor. As always we are full of ideas as to how we can make the hostel better, whether in terms of facilities or services, and we decided that now was the time to put some of those ideas into action. As well as new social spaces in the lobby area we will be remodeling the reception, and with the improvements we will also be developing some new services and ideas as we move into 2013. Of course, this remodeling work will cause a little bit of disruption for those who will be coming to stay with us over the next couple of weeks, but we have put together a number of special treats as a way of thanking you all for your understanding.
Some would say a hostel with a reduced lobby is like a pub with no beer… actually, that was our Entertainment Manager Andrew who– as an Australian – can be forgiven for busting out the Slim Dusty now and again, but in actual fact we DO HAVE BEER, and not only that we are offering up a free keg down in Goldman's Bar for hostel guests every night at 8pm for the duration of the improvements work. Added to that we have a free dinner in the Circus Café each evening at 6pm, so you can certainly – ahem – fill yo' belly fo' free.
And because we also want you to fill your mind as well as your stomach, Andrew and Jimbo have come up with a series of excellent free tours on Tuesdays and Thursdays to some of those places in Berlin that you might not find on your own… 2013 is going to be another great year at the Circus, and we will have some pictures of the new look reception and lounge area, both in the remodeling process and once it is all done, over the next couple of weeks.

Storms cause damage in Huntsville
Strong storms Wednesday caused damage at businesses throughout Huntsville.
Much of the damage was along 11th Street.
An oak tree went through the roof of the Quick Pic convenience store about 8:45 a.m.
"I went in here to get me some Lemonheads, chewy Lemonheads, and as he was ringing me up all I heard was a boom and the lights went out," one customer said. "I thought they was dropping a bomb in here."
The owner of the store, Sam Patel, said he hopes to get the damage repaired quickly so he can reopen as soon as possible.
"We're waiting for people to clean the tree," he said.
A Firestone tire shop down the street also sustained severe damage to its roof.
"The wind started hitting us real hard and peeled off the backside of our roof back here," an employee said. "Our shop started filling up with water."
Thousands of people in the area lost power during the storms.
No serious injuries were reported.
