Re: VAC Ban while playing COD GhostsPC_FPS Feb 21, 2014 10:50 AM (in response to PhilCrafting)
We dont trust you when you say "I didnt hack/cheat"-
But, just out of curiosity, list all programs you have running any given time you play a FPS game.

I know that you don't trust me, I mean I wouldn't even trust anyone posting that I mean anyone could say that, but please do carefully read my post again and as mentioned the internet in germany is really bad not just the place where I live, but also the router is terrible.
Normally I use Skype or Teamspeak (Normally Skype) and Steam. That's pretty much it, I never use anything else I mean why would I, I only run FPS games (which I haven't played too many, only games like Loadout) on Fullscreen so other things would mainly just be a distraction,

Yes, I am. But what does me being german have to do with getting VAC banned?
Re: VAC Ban while playing COD GhostsPhilCrafting Feb 22, 2014 3:06 AM (in response to PhilCrafting)
Guys, I don't want to sound like a prick, but this situation is really bugging me and is really ridiculous.
I have never hacked, I was playing on a test version, what adventage would cheating have for me?! I have no Idea how hacking works, I know lots of people who have played games with me who can tell you that I am a terrible gamer who has no idea on how to do anything related to modding or hacking or whatever.
It was probably the Internet in germany that made me look like I was lagging, but at the same time hacking?! I don't even know! I am sorry that I am raging right now, but seriously I want a proper response saying I got banned out of this reason for this violation or a lift of this VAC Ban, because I haven't done anything like cheating nor was I ever planning on it. This was my first Vac Ban and I don't even know why. I am rank 3, my kd is somewhat 5 kills to 15 deaths. How does any of this look like I was hacking?! I only was talking to my friend on skype who doesn't play cod, and suddenly I was VAC banned. Please properly respond to this comment or to the first one and tell me if i have done anything wrong with either in the game or in this comment or just some proper respone which either tells me that the VAC will be lifted because I have done nothing absolutely nothing wrong in this game, or I don't even know. I did hear that VAC has worked solidly for years and I have played countless games before with it (on friend's computers, on mine and never ever have a I recieved one for playing bad, lagging, i don't even know) but I have done nothing wrong while playing a FPS. NEVER. So please respond as soon as possible, because this topic is just really bugging me and I just want to play the game and eventually buy it and help the developers out.

Ask Activision Support on Twitter.
Re: VAC Ban while playing COD GhostsMeloentje Feb 23, 2014 7:50 AM (in response to PhilCrafting)
Jo Phil, I'm Dennis, im from Belgium, the thing is you dont have to worry about your vac ban.
I received the same thing as you, (game closed, error message: vac banned) right?
So i checked out my profile, and the profile of mine doesnt even mention or show i have VAC-ban.
So when your not hacking like you and me, its just a GLITCH.
try'd playing COD ghosts again and it worked, also try'd some valve games that day; like L4D2, CSGO, and it worked!
Nothing to worry about is what im trying to say hehe .
Hope this helped, enjoy fragging
Re: VAC Ban while playing COD GhostsPhilCrafting Feb 23, 2014 8:39 AM (in response to Meloentje)
Hey Dennis, I think you might be right! It doesn't show up on my steam profile either, and it has been atleast 2 days, It might just be a glitch just like you mentioned! Thanks for the help mate!
Re: VAC Ban while playing COD GhostsCypher871 Feb 22, 2014 10:12 AM (in response to PhilCrafting)
You should be talking to Steam, not complaining here. If your complaint is legitimate they should sort it out for you. You also have to realise that if the VAC ban is upheld you may as well say goodbye to your account and create a new one because nobody will trust or believe you from that point forward. Once you have a VAC ban on your record your as good as tainted, regardless of how long ago it was you got the ban...decent players hate cheats, have no sympathy for them and wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire.
Re: VAC Ban while playing COD GhostsPhilCrafting Feb 22, 2014 5:40 PM (in response to Cypher871)
Thanks for the information, but how do I complain/talk to steam? Steam Support section?
Re: VAC Ban while playing COD GhostsCypher871 Feb 23, 2014 11:59 AM (in response to PhilCrafting)
When you are in Steam you will see four options on the menu bar at the top, Store, Community, About and Support. Click on Support and you will be taken to a page asking if it is a game related or Steam related issue. Above this to the right it has the option to either log in or create an account.
You will need to create an account for Steam support (this is not the same as your gaming Steam account). Once done log in and follow the path you require to report your issue.
If it's just a glitch or a mistake they will reverse the ban for you.
Hope it all goes well for you.
Re: VAC Ban while playing COD Ghosts6Tn1ne Feb 23, 2014 6:52 AM (in response to PhilCrafting)
Is this you ?
If it is , I don't see a VAC-ban attached to this profile ?
Re: VAC Ban while playing COD GhostsPhilCrafting Feb 23, 2014 8:40 AM (in response to 6Tn1ne)
It is. And yeah, that's the weird part. It might be a glitch just like Dennis (a User in the section above) mentioned. Weird.
Re: VAC Ban while playing COD Ghostswurzeldo Jun 26, 2014 12:36 AM (in response to PhilCrafting)
Hi Phil,
same here. German too. Suddenly I am not longer able to play online, due to VAC.
In my case there seems to be no glitch, my account is banned since two days now.
Support glorifies Customer Care in sending automatic replies.
Standard Content as usual: "Stop whining. You cheated. We know it!. VAC never fails. We'll trash any further communication from you".
So it seems, I have to enqueue myself in the endless group of cheaters.
I've sent until today three messages, but I am not that optimistic to get Non-Automated Answers.
But I have a guess, what caused their VAC-System to point at me as a cheater: External SDD-Harddisk plugged into an ExpressCard-Slot based USB3-Controller failed several times in the last days. I got some Bluescreens. Two of them, while ingame. Maybe that caused the effect (Suddenly missing security routines, stuff like that).
Let's wait and see.
If I cannot make it out of any automatism-replay communications, there is just one step left: Hiring a lawyer.
The juridical aspects are nothing to sneeze at.
On one hand, they kill-switched a bought product from remote, with no proven reason. Resulting from that, there is on the other hand the aspect of defamation. On websites like "vacbanned.com" now everyone can see "This guy cheated".
Most of the online gamers are maybe kids or young people.
So they are not that established to know about their rights.
And 20-40 Euros if you buy the same game again is nothing compared to the costs of a good lawyer.
But I am pissed enough to make an example, even if I just _try_.
Feeling pretty scandalized about that.
So, at the moment it seems, you were the lucky guy.
I still have hope for justice left .o)
Kind regards

You just answered your own question. Playing with a "horrible" connection will get you banned. Especially if it works in your favour. Like people shoot you but don't get hit markers cause your net is lagging.
Re: VAC Ban while playing COD GhostsUnitedKingdom12345 Aug 23, 2014 12:00 PM (in response to xlHELLBOUNDlx)
We play against many players with crap connections that give them advantages of over 1 second and they have not been banned ?? so its not that . and if it was you would have no Russians , polish or French playing as their connections are crap and you can not blame distances all the time as we have had good games against south American players or from the USA and even Israel we have have had good connections and hence good games
Re: VAC Ban while playing COD GhostsUnitedKingdom12345 Aug 22, 2014 11:55 AM (in response to PhilCrafting)
If you go on steam support and ask them for help in finding out why they have banned or you can check if its a steam ban by going on to your steam profile if it steam that has banned you it will show there and should tell you haw long the ban is for but if its activison your ban will be permanent and they don't give reasons and the problem is activision is banning innocent players and leaving hackers alone if you want evidence for this just go on ghost barracks and go on score and filter the game for alltime players and then just hit scroll to top and you will find the top 17 players some of them have played for only 1hr or less and havescored over 230 million or players with an average score of 60 million per game to and have not been banned . We have a clan member who I have played with for over 4 years and with an pretty average score who had problems with his steam connection weeks go and when they tried to play ghost after 2 days off found they had been vac banned by activision and was given no reason and even steam have said the vacs has not picked up and hacks on his game so why a ban ??

Scores don't mean anything. If i have a crappy pc that doesn't run the game well and i also use a cheat. because my pc is slow i won't do that well even with a cheat because of all the performance problems my pc has. if there are 2 cheaters using the same cheat the cheater with the better pc will be the winner.
Plus many players (when trying to play with a cheat on a team) lay low and don't use the cheat to the point where it's blatantly obvious.
I guarantee your friend is a cheater. and also a liar. because I'm sure he's still going on about how (he never cheated!)
Do you have any recorded play of this member? if you see him constantly "snapping" on his targets all round (out of sheer luck / by sound alone) it's safe to say he was using an aim-cheat and was caught and banned.
If you have any video of this supposed (unfairly banned) teammate of yours I'll be happy to point out what cheat he uses. I'ts most likely there in his play. just pay attention to (how) he keeps finding the enemy. does he always turn & stop right next to the target for many unseen targets who are not on radar (because he heard a sound?). And for every target found in the open is there always a perfect snap that pauses right on the target then the aim/targeting continues? these are sure signs of a cheat. We are humans and we can easily continue a movement even if it is back in the other direction, we don't always need to pause on target we can make decisions on the fly and quickly loop back the other direction without a break in motion. If your "so called" great player with awesome aim always pauses and breaks motion to stop right on the target "we have a cheat".
Anyway if you post up a video I'm sure I'll be able to point out the aim-cheat catching the targets on the reticle & centering off and many other tell tail signs of the cheat.
I highly doubt your teammate was wrongfully banned.
As far as the stats problem there can be many reason for that. maybe they do delete the hacked stats and the hackers just put them right back.
Re: VAC Ban while playing COD GhostsUnitedKingdom12345 Aug 23, 2014 11:49 AM (in response to Mr_Pistolero)
A player who has been banned is removed from the stats list so if you have a player who has scored over 250 million in playing for just 1 hour still on the list it kind of negates your statement of a glitch especially as I have played against said player and reported them at the time . Also the incorrect banning of players on both playstations and xbox and xboxone has been admitted by activision and have had their banns reviewed so why not for the pc ? I know what you mean about aim assist and wall hackers but as I said the clan member contacted steam and they informed him the vacs had detected nothing during his playing of ghost and on his profile it is clean so it does not go to say that if they are banned they must be hacking

Well I'm not 100% on that.
All I'm saying is If I were a cheater or if I'm someone who is really hell bent on having my name on the top of the stats list I can create 20 steam accounts right now, buy 20 cd keys and have them all waiting for me to use with the same name "Bullshit Hunter" on each account as soon as i create it. And I can also hack my stats and put any numbers I want! because let's say "I'm a good hacker like that!" So activision can delete my #1 stat listing tonight. and tomorrow I can have it right back up with my new (unbanned account) using the same name. That's all I'm saying is that it's very possible activision "gave up" trying to ban and remove that players stats. (who knows) lol.

Well that's who your friend should contact. (activision) if they reverse his ban then it was an error. If they refuse to it's because he's a cheater.
Trust me if I were "really" wrongfully banned I wouldn't stop contacting support until I got my account reinstated. So would you, Don't you think? I wouldn't stop until I was speaking to a manager or whatever and having my issue resolved!.
If he isn't a cheat I don't believe that there is no way out of his situation. Someone somewhere at activision has to know it was a wrongful ban and reverse it.

Well 1st off there are many cheats that simply (get around vac and punkbuster anti-cheat) We have known this for years. some cheats have gone undetected for over a decade. (the devs know this happened/is happening), This is why activision created their own anti-cheat where they actually review your play and will ban players who they can see are using cheats.
If you want to know the truth ask your friend to ask activision support why he has been banned. If activision says "he was banned for cheating" then that's what it was. They would reverse it if he was one of the wrongfully banned players.
Also as I said, If possible you can review video footage to determine if a cheat is in play, or since he's a teammate you can spectate him, and if there is often a dead on "snap" when aiming to targets out in the open no matter how large or small the turn radius is to the target it's always a "snap" or a double "snap" that stops dead on target. and also every sound he hears he makes the perfect last second decision of turning and stopping right next to the target, accompanied by a second snap that puts him dead on target, then you should know that he was using an aim-cheat and got banned for it.
I think you clan guys (admins/owners mainly) need to tighten up your ships. It's time to stop believing all these players with the great snappy aim are real. It's time to not let these suspicious percision "snappy aim" players on your teams. (aim-assist)<--Snaps to targets. not a human with a mouse "sliding" on a desktop everytime. I don't care what kind of pro you are. You should make many kills without a break in motion, you should just slide over to the target & rub it out without a break in motion. What's this perfect "stiff arm" snap bs every time? We are humans sliding a mouse on a desktop aren't we?, we can do circles, U turns, figure 8's around the target, and that's what you should be seeing when spectating a real pro.
The pro aiming guy shouldn't only be directly snapping onto every target with 1 or 2 distinct pivots like an aim-assist. Any player mainly doing that shouldn't be allowed on your team do to suspicion! <--- if your seriously trying to keep it clean and your an admin who knows many players can be using aim-cheats that bypass the system you should be making proper judgement calls on who can play on your team. Consistent snappy aim players? NOPE!
Team admins should group together and put a stop to allowing anyone with consistant snappy aim on the team. Especially when these are your top players. No clans should allow them. Then watch how fast these hack sites shut down. LOL.
Re: VAC Ban while playing COD GhostsUnitedKingdom12345 Aug 25, 2014 11:20 AM (in response to Mr_Pistolero)
But activision are not using another check system there are using the vacs and as I said steam have said the vacs has detected nothing and his profile remains clean and as I said activision are not reviewing pc banns even though they have for other systems and said player has been waiting for a reply from activision for at least an explanation .the other thing is that steam has allowed / advised the player to set up a new profile from the same ip addres and reinstall his game brought from steam using the same key code on to that although he will have to start from scratch because they know he his no hacker and that activision wont review pc vac banns . I have a nephew who on his first game on the ps4 version was connected to a hacked server that prestiged him and was promptly banned but that was reviewed by steam and activision and was ban was removed .So my point is again that just because some one is banned it does not make it written in stone that they hacked as you seam to think . You could be right about the player hacking but activisions refusal to at least review a ban that even steam have said is wrong just because its on a pc and not another platform you would have to admit is strange . And your point about clans is a valid one they should be more vigilant about their clan members and as we are a small clan we do sometimes use shadow play/ recording to post games to each other just for the laughs they contain or good game play / kill streaks so in one way we do and if we are in a clan war ie 4 v 4 the surplus players watch the game sometimes to which makes said players guilty not guilty ban stand out even more .

The hive is made of white pine and is 46" long (almost 4 feet!). It comes with a well-supported gabled rooftop that is covered in thick white aluminum. It comes with a follower board - sometimes called a false-back that can help control the space the colony is using. It has a heavy duty professional screened bottom board that runs the entire length of the hive. It also has a mite board that slides easily in the bottom. This can assist in ventilation techniques as well as mite counts. It comes with 14 brood top bars that are 19" x 1 3/8" thick that can be used in the brood area of the hive. The remaining 14 bars are 19 x 1 5/8" and can be used as the honey production bars. There are three entrance holes along the long side of the hive. These hives are a wonderful alternative for the environmentally-minded, research-inclined, or experiment-driven beekeeper. Some assembly required. Assembly hardware (nails, screws, etc) are NOT included. There are three wood grade types for hives; select, commercial, and budget. These are commercial grade quality hives. This means that there may be some minor knots in the wood, the may have a bit of a rougher cut, or there may be an extra staple or two to make sure it's held together securely. Our goal is to sell a quality structurally sound hive.

I have tried every possible way of getting either TinyMCE or CKEditor to work in 3.3 with no luck. Hs anyone gotten this to work?
I have tried every possible way of getting either TinyMCE or CKEditor to work in 3.3 with no luck. Hs anyone gotten this to work?
TinyMCE is built into the Visual Editor and works fine. What are you trying to do that isn't working?
I am trying to figure out why I no longer see the Visual and HTML tabs in the upper right corner of the editor. All I get is a line of words with no icons. Can't even find the kitchen sink anymore. If I install Advanced TinyMCE or CK Editor the tool bar remains the same without adding anything to the toolbar.
Now I have tried everything that I can read about on this forum as well as others. This is a clean install of WP 3.3 RC-1 with all plugins turned off and no additional plugins besides the standard two Hello and Akismet, neither of which is activated. The Visual Editor radio button in my profile is not checked and I have checked and unchecked it to no avail.
So could you enlighten me as to how you got yours working.
Nothing special, I just installed WP and they worked.
Delete the core files and re-upload.
If it's still not working, what version of PHP are you running?
Already tried deleting and re-uploading the core files. Deleted every cache on every browser and still get the same result. Tried it on my remote server and got the same results. Here at my development server I am using php 5.3.6. I've tried the install as an upgrade and as a clean install. It really has me puzzled.
Has this been resolved? cuz I'm having similar problem with an upgrade to WP 3.3, except the tabs show up, but I can't switch to the visual editor.
Just got this doing a clean install of WordPress too.
lighttpd 1.4.29
mysql 5.5
php 5.3.8
http://i.imgur.com/jpT4o.png <- looks like this.
the flyout menus doesnt work too
Same here, it does not replace standard textareas for TinyMCE instances as it used to in WP 3.2
They're letting us hang in the wind. what shame, since 3.2 didn't seem to have ANY of these issues.
even the Beta 3.3 candidate didn't have these problems.
Try working through the solutions listed in http://wordpress.org/support/topic/troubleshooting-wordpress-33-master-list
Since 3.3 is now live, this is no longer an Alpha/Beta issue.
I found the cause of my problem:
In the firebug-console I noticed that TinyMCE apparently was looking for the following language file:
but in the folder : wp-includes/js/tinymce/langs/ where only two files:
I downloaded the english language pack from: http://www.tinymce.com/i18n/index.php?ctrl=lang&act=download&pr_id=1
Copied it in the 'lang'-folder and now everything works again!
thanks esmi, figured out how to solve this visiting your link.
Just uncommented these 2 lines on my php.ini and restarted lighttpd.
Made it to c-panel...whew..
When you put the en.js file in the TinyMCE folder, did you delete
the wp-langs-en.js that was orginally there?
soulstaker, kindly explain the code you shared
Thanks....not working yet...

Using a two part model to infer the insurance decision and subsequent amount of insurance chosen we found out that people's decision over private health coverage is not related with their health.

text: harpermeThreads: 1Posts: 1Author: Michelle Harper Feb 8, 2009 #1- Research and report on a "leadership event" in history. Using Kouzes and Posner's Model the Way and Inspiring a Shared Vision, analyze and explain how these aspects of K&P concepts can be attributed to the leadership in the event. 5-7 pages- I haven't finished yet (I still need about two pages), but I'd like to get some feed back because I feel like this paper is just a bunch of ramblings that are going nowhere... I still need to finish going over parts of Inspiring a Shared Vision and write a conclusion, and any critiques would help. Thanks. Henry Street Settlement House Throughout time humanity has made attempts at accurately defining and developing leadership. In James Kouzes and Barry Posner's The Student Leadership Challenge, Kouzes and Posner presents five main practices that prosperous leadership embodies; Model the Way, Inspire a Shared Vision, Challenge the Process, Enable Others to Act, and Encourage the Heart (Kouzes and Posner 10). Each practice exemplifies what makes leadership successful through explaining the relationship between leaders and their constituents (Kouzes and Posner 36). One accomplished humanitarian who illustrates both aspects of Model the Way and Inspire a Shared Vision is Lillian Wald, a devoted social worker and nurse of the poor as well as the founder of the Henry Street Settlement House. The promise of American freedom spread widely during the late 1800s as millions journeyed to the nation of opportunity and wealth in a desperate attempt to obtain better lives (City life in the Late 19th Century). However, the life of an immigrant during the late 19th century was anything but opportune. Many immigrants found themselves poor upon arrival and ended up living in alarmingly crowded tenements within the cities. With such close living quarters and unsanitary conditions, diseases often spread rapidly. These harsh living conditions and lack of appropriate health care caught the sympathetic attention of Lillian Wald, inspiring the young upper class nurse to combat social issues while caring for the poor within the Lower East Side of New York City (Wald 1-8). While living within the lower class area of the Lower East Side of New York, Wald's experiences and observations of the impoverished around her helped Wald to clarify her own values. Clarifying Values is one of the main steps in Kouzes and Posner's practice of Model the Way. According to Kouzes and Posner, values are defined as "enduring beliefs about how things should be accomplished." (Kouzes and Posner 32) Wald genuinely believed that in order to aid the impoverished, certain fundamental social facts needed to be recognized, that the lower class has the right to quality nursing care within their own homes (Wald 26-27). She presented an authentic and unique vision that was "consistent in word and deed." (Kouzes and Posner 31) Through depicting a clear mission, those around her were able to wrap themselves into Wald's goal. Kouzes and Posner explained that leaders must make sure that there is a shared set of values so that followers have something that connects them all together (Kouzes and Posner 36).According to Joseph C. Rost, "[l]eadership is an influence relationship among leaders and followers who intend real changes that reflect their mutual purposes." (Rost) Wald garnered the support of not only the nurses and physicians she worked with but also gained the loyalty and respect of the local community through her values to help the impoverished Lower East Side. Leadership is not only about a leader who leads but also about the followers the leader leads. Wald also made her values clear to those around her and did not let the social structures of the time limit the effect of her mission. This aspect of Wald personifies another facet of Model the Way. According to Kouzes and Posner, "the leaders who are admired most are those who believe strongly in something and are willing to stand up for their beliefs." (Kouzes and Posner 30) Wald persisted in her mission to help the Lower East Side despite the lower living standards or the objections of friends and family and in doing so set revolutionary standards of social reform and nursing care for the impoverished. (Wald 286-290) Furthermore, Wald's persistence and personal experience illustrates her credibility. As presented in The Student Leadership Challenge by Kouzes and Posner, "credibility is the foundation of leadership." (Kouzes and Posner 29) If the community of the Lower East Side disbelieved Wald then they would not have believed in her mission nor taken any part in engaging in Henry House Settlement activities or programs. However, due to Wald's credibility, she was able to not only amass a nursing staff of two-hundred and fifty by 1916, but also accumulated the support of the local community and was serving over thirteen hundred patients a day at the Henry House Settlement in the Lower East Side of New York (Syndicated Column). Another aspect of Model the Way is Set the Example. According to Kouzes and Posner, leaders need to set the example and "practice what they preach." (Kouzes and Posner 37) Lillian Wald set the example by actively caring for the unhealthy and not taking payment for services rendered from those who could not afford a charge (Wald 28-29). By "doing the right thing," Wald used signal-sending opportunities to assemble nurses willing to help the poor for little or no pay (Kouzes and Posner 37). Actively nursing the ill, educating Lower East Side residents on germs, as well as setting up and running Henry House settlement were some of the activities that Wald participated in actively that helped to set the example. (Wald 20-44) From the very beginning stages of the Henry Street Settlement House, Wald had a very unique vision of what the organization would become. According to Kouzes and Posner, one aspect of the practice of inspiring a shared vision is to envision the future (Kouzes and Posner 51). Kouzes and Posner describe leaders as 'possibility thinkers', people who can picture a future bigger than what currently exists (Kouzes and Posner 51-52). Wald's vision for the Henry Street Settlement House was to reform social and economic structures while nursing the ill (Wald 5-12). Through nursing and education, Lillian Wald envisioned a social and economic revolution. "Envisioning the future begins with passion, feeling concern, or as inspiration that something is worth doing." (Kouzes and Posner 53) Before embarking upon the creation of the Henry Street Settlement House, Wald was torn by the living condition of one family she tended to within the Lower East Side (Wald 4-9). Almost immediately Wald sought for a solution to the appalling conditions for which this family and thousands like them lived. After immersing herself within the area, Wald and her colleague, Mary Brewster, developed a clear vision towards which they could actively work (Wald 8-15).

Henry King Stanford (April 22, 1916 – January 1, 2009) was President of Georgia Southwestern College (now known as Georgia Southwestern State University), President of Georgia State College for Women (now known as Georgia College & State University), President of Birmingham Southern College, the 3rd President of the University of Miami, and 19th President of the University of Georgia.
Early years and education[edit]
Stanford was born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia.[1] He received his Bachelor of Arts in history and German from Emory University, a Master of Science in government and management from the University of Denver (where he was an Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Fellow), and a PhD in political science and public administration from New York University.[2] He was also the recipient of thirteen honorary doctorates from universities across the world.
Professional career[edit]
Small college presidencies[edit]
From 1948 to 1950, Stanford was President of Georgia Southwestern College, now known as Georgia Southwestern State University, and from 1950 to 1952 he was Director of the University Center in Georgia. The Board of Regents elected Stanford as President of Georgia State College for Women in 1953. Before going to GSCW, Stanford had worked for a year as the Assistant Chancellor of the University System of Georgia. Newspaper reports state that he was sent to GSCW by the Board of Regents to deal with GSCW's difficult problems such as the declining enrollment and the movement to make GSCW a coeducational institution.
During his short tenure of three years at GSCW, Stanford managed to raise morale and stop declining enrollment. Herty Hall was also completed during Stanford's tenure. Many of the other buildings on campus, however, continued to suffer. Stanford suggested during his presidency that Chappell Hall be torn down. At the same time, much of Atkinson Hall was abandoned due to the building's poor condition. Despite Stanford's requests for funding, much of the campus remained in disrepair until the 1970s and 1980s.
In 1956 the Board of Regents granted Stanford a leave of absence so that he could serve as Chief of the New York University Mission in Turkey. His original plan was to return to the college in June 1957. Before he left for Turkey, however, he took a position as president of Birmingham Southern College and resigned as president of Georgia State College for Women in the spring of 1956. He was president of Birmingham Southern from 1957 until 1962.[1]
University of Miami[edit]
Stanford was the president of the University of Miami from 1962–1981. He was known as much for his trademark jacket lapel, always accessorized with a fresh and colorful carnation, as for his leadership and personal commitment to the University's students. He would breakfast with student groups every two weeks, and frequently invited student leaders to his home to dialogue with himself and his wife, Ruth King Stanford, over dinner. He often visited the residence halls unannounced to talk with students or spontaneously joined them for lunch. Another notable trademark was his remarkable and uncanny ability to remember years later, the names and circumstances under which he had met students just once. Accordingly, his tenure is also remembered for his ubiquitous campus presence.[2][3]
Stanford's presidency at the University of Miami saw increased emphasis on research, reorganization of administrative structure and construction of new facilities. Among the new research centers established were the Center for Advanced International Studies (1964), the Institute of Molecular and Cellular Evolution (1964), the Center for Theoretical Studies (1965), the James M. Cox, Jr. Science Building, (1967), and the Institute for the Study of Aging (1975).
Stanford led the University through the national turbulence of the 1960s, and guided it through the largest era of growth and expansion in the University's history. New buildings sprung up as quickly as new programs and degrees. Four 12-story residence halls were among the dozens of new buildings, and reflected the University's growing enrollment of out-of-state students. One of those residence halls, the Henry King Stanford Residential College today bears his name.[2]
Beginning with 1968 fall football season, the University of Miami, at Stanford's insistence, became one of the first Southern United States institutions to ban the playing of "Dixie" by the University band.[3] To prevent the kind of disruptive and violent demonstrations such as the tragedy at Kent State University, he orchestrated larger roles for students and faculty in university governance and allowed all a greater freedom of choice. Minority rights and representation at all levels of University life also became characteristic of the Stanford presidency. He initiated the tradition of dinners for foreign students at his home, and encouraged diversity throughout the University.
Stanford also led the University through the difficult era of the 1970s, when the entire country was feeling the effects of the prolonged national inflation, and the general discrediting of higher education institutions, since during a time when jobs were scarce, a college degree was no longer an automatic assurance of a successful career and a secure future. It was also during this time that use of the University's former post-war nickname of "Sun Tan U" ended due to Stanford's efforts. In his honor, the University of Miami has named several awards, scholarships, and endowed chairs, a road way, a residence hall, and other items.[2]
In April 2007, the AMIGOS Board of Directors of the University of Miami's Libraries Cuban Heritage Collection (CHC) established the "AMIGOS of the University of Miami Cuban Heritage Collection Henry King Stanford Award", named for the third president of UM, and presented the former president with its first award. The award was created to honor those individuals who have "greatly contributed" to the work of the AMIGOS and the CHC.[4]
University of Georgia[edit]
Five years after Stanford's retirement from the University of Miami, he took the position of president of the University of Georgia in Athens, Georgia on an interim basis, while the Georgia Board of Regents conducted a search for a permanent president. He served from 1986 to 1987.[5]
Stanford served during a period of turmoil. The reputation of the University had been sullied as a result of an unfavorable ruling by a federal jury in a case brought by Jan Kemp, who had asserted that she was unlawfully fired for speaking out against alleged preferential academic treatment for athletes. Stanford was instrumental in moving the University forward and restoring optimism.[1]
Upon his departure from the University of Georgia, the Georgia Board of Regents named him president emeritus of the University of Georgia.[1]
Retirement and death[edit]
Stanford climbed Mount Everest in 1988 at the age of 72.[6] He died at the age of 92 at his home in Americus, Georgia, on New Year's Day, 2009.[1]

Great Villa - continued
July 13, 2015
-Safety: local population is very kind, friendly and helpful (especially in Catarman village where villa is located), of course I assume there can be criminals in some public places like in all other countries but we never saw them; most of local people are more or less fluent in English; supermarkets and ATMs are guarded by police;- Swimming - be sure to have special shoes when swimming because there can be sea-urchins;- Supermarkets/grocery stores: big ones (shopping molls) placed in Tagbilaran only (15 min of driving), but there is small grocery store 80 m on the right by the cement road opened 08.00 am – 09.00 pm, young lady there speaks very good English and is very helpful, you can add money to your local SIM card account ('to load') and buy soft drinks, beer, mango, eggs, even washing powder and razor but no fresh chicken/meat; at the same time I guess you can always buy fresh chicken directly from village people; 'mini-mini' markets with soft drinks – placed every 50-100 m in the village.In conclusion I would like to say that Daryl Marshal's villa is ideal for vacation. It has everything you may need during your stay including Internet and Satellite TV (sometimes Cartoon Network is necessary to let parents get some rest from their children :) ). It is suitable for children. Located in very good, beautiful, quiet and save place (Catarman village). Minor disadvantages I mentioned above can be easily eliminated: waiting for too long to get lunch ready – call La Veranda restaurant and order in advance, not that 'clean' Alona Beach – go to the left side of the beach where not many boats are at anchor.I definitely will be back next year. .

The Road Not Taken May Be a Key to Driving Less
What would it take to get people to drive less? It could be as simple as having them keep a record of the car trips they don't take, a study found.
In the study, students at the University of Virginia who kept track online of the car trips they avoided ended up driving less than those who didn't keep a record, researchers found. What's more, students who also received feedback on both the money they saved on gas and the pollution they prevented by not using their cars reduced time behind the wheel even more.
"Monitoring your behavior can work to reduce your energy consumption, and if you have multiple kinds of feedback that can reduce it even further," says Jesse Graham, one of the three authors of the study, published last year in the Journal of Applied Social Psychology.
Companies hope to use behavioral-modification techniques gleaned from psychology to influence how people use energy. Conservation start-ups such as Tendril Inc. and People Power Co. have hired behavioral scientists to help them figure out how to motivate people to better manage their daily electricity usage. Car makers, meanwhile, are adding energy monitors and feedback about driving patterns in an effort to get people to drive more efficiently.
During the study that Dr. Graham, of the University of Southern California, co-wrote with Minkyung Koo, of the University of Illinois, and Timothy Wilson, of the University of Virginia, 128 college students sent in readings from their odometers. Over the next two weeks, one group entered in an online spreadsheet every time they decided to avoid the car and instead walk, ride a bike, take public transport, carpool or just stay home.
Several people in the tracking group then received information about the amount of money they saved based on their cars' gas mileage. Others found out how much pollution they prevented, and still others got both types of information. One subgroup got no extra feedback at all. At the end of the study everyone estimated whether in the previous two weeks they drove less than usual, the same or more.
Researchers averaged the number of miles avoided in the different groups, and found that those who received both monetary and pollution information about their choices drove on average about 86 miles less than they had originally intended. Those who just recorded the trips they avoided drove 34 miles less. The groups that received just one type of feedback—about either money or pollution—drove about 48 miles less, but those improvements weren't statistically significant compared with the group that tracked trips but received no other feedback.
The findings suggest that "people have multiple reasons for wanting to do a behavior," says Mr. Graham, so if you want to change how you act, you might want to "swamp yourself with reasons."

Unlike some states, Florida's pension system isn't in the tank.
Financially, it's in good shape, 87 percent funded, which experts consider healthy.
Neither are most public workers in the Florida Retirement System raking in bloated benefits. They include 304,000 retirees and 655,000 active members, from school employees to police officers, firefighters, prison officers, some municipal workers, and elected officials
The average teacher's retirement check is $1,868 a month, and the average benefit for regular-class career service employees is $970 a month.
That's no golden parachute. But it does provide modest retirement security for public servants who often are paid lower wages than private-sector workers.
The $3.6 billion budget deficit that Florida lawmakers must manage this year is not due to the burden of funding state workers' pensions.
However, the system's costs to taxpayers of roughly $3 billion a year is substantial and can be reduced like everything else in a bad budget climate. Currently, the FRS is too generous and privileges some higher-tier workers, including politicians, over the rank-and-file.
For example, Florida's is the only system in the nation that doesn't require employees to make any contribution to their retirement package, meaning state and local taxpayers bear the entire load. Almost no one in the private sector gets that kind of a deal these days.
That's why we support calls by Gov. Rick Scott and leaders in the Legislature to change the rules for state workers' pensions.going forward.
The devil, as always, is in the details. Lawmakers should judiciously choose reforms to trim costs and increase fairness, not slam the hammer down on hard-working people, nor break contractual promises.already in place.
Scott wants to save $2.6 billion over two years by:
-- Requiring workers to contribute 5 percent of their salaries to their pension.
-- Moving new hires away from defined benefit pensions to a 401(k)-style plan like those private corporations offer employees.
-- Phasing out a guaranteed 3 percent annual cost-of-living adjustment for retirees.
-- Reducing what's called the "annual service credit" benefit of 3 percent that accrues for public safety workers to 2 percent and dropping judges' and politicians' yearly credit to 1.6 percent.
-- Ending DROP, the program that lets employees earn a salary and pension simultaneously.
We've said before that lawmakers searching for budget savings should halt the DROP gravy train that allows some workers, including elected officials like Brevard Property Appraiser Jim Ford, to double dip and pad hefty pensions.
It's a ripoff that should end.
Some of the pension tweaks makes sense, but lawmakers should think hard before moving new state workers from defined benefit to 401(k)-style savings plans. That could threaten their retirement security given the uncertainties of the stock market.
Furthermore, to shield retirees on fixed incomes, the COLA increases could be kept but tied to inflation or 3 percent, whichever is lower.
Suddenly, requiring low-paid state workers, many of whom haven't received raises in almost five years, to pay a 5 percent contribution to their pensions is also too harsh.
Lawmakers should require a lower employee contribution rate or consider a tiered contribution rate so workers at the bottom of the salary heap aren't hit the hardest.
Meanwhile, why should elected officials and others not exposed to daily danger get the same "hazard" pay accrued benefit that police and firefighters earn?
Restrict that perk to those risking their lives in the line of duty.
Other ideas the Legislature should at look at include not allowing overtime to count in pension calculations.
Upcoming pension changes won't be popular with public servants who perform honorable work and merit respect. But everyone is biting the bullet these days, and out of fairness to taxpayers, so must state workers.

Corruption is not an obstacle to doing business in Sweden. Sweden's Penal Code criminalises most forms of corruption, and a strong rule of law exists in the country. However, municipal-level procurement is identified as a corruption risk. Swedish legislation does not make a distinction between bribery and facilitation payments, meaning there is no exception for facilitation payments. Companies should be aware the Code on Gifts, Rewards and other Benefits in Business has been published as a supplement to changes made to the Penal Code (in Swedish). The OECD Working Group on bribery recognises the efforts made by Sweden to enforce its foreign bribery offence.

With respect to the original question:
From your comments, I presume that you must use the Nikon PB4 bellows unit in order to use a dedicated Nikon slide copier and that, due to interference between the camera body and the bellows unit, you must use the 27.5mm Nikon PK-13 extension tube between the body and the bellows unit.
Using the PK-13, PB4, and PS5 simultaneously forces constraints on the minimum and maximum focal length of the lens to get your wanted 1:1 magnification.
The shortest lens you can use is 71mm (due to the combined lengths of the tube and closed bellows).
With the PK-13 and PB4 mounted and the PS5 slide copier extended as far forward as possible, the longest slide-to-film (or sensor) distance possible is about 397mm.
Consequently, to get 1:1 magnification you can use a lens no longer than 99mm focal length.
So, if you must use both the PK-13 and bellows, then you must choose a lens in the range of 71mm to 99mm to get 1:1 magnification.

Fourteen fans barred from buying tickets at Talladega

TALLADEGA, Ala. -- Talladega Superspeedway has permanently banned 14 fans from buying tickets at the speedway following their arrests Sunday for throwing objects on the track after Jeff Gordon's victory in the Aaron's 499.
The fans were charged with disorderly conduct Sunday and posted bond at the track's jail facilities, Talladega County Sheriff Jerry Studdard said. Track officials can't prevent the 14 fans from buying tickets through a third party.

|I. Name and Identification
|II. OT Period
|III. Greco-Roman Period
|IV. Archeological Investigations
I. Name and Identification.–Rabbah in Hebrew means "great" (fem.). Although it can be used attributively to describe a town, e.g., Heb. ḥamaṯ rabbâ, "great Hamath" (Am. 6:2), it is used substantively with regard to the capital of the Ammonites and should most likely be taken as a divine epithet, "the Lady," in accordance with widespread northwest Semitic practice. The city was evidently named after the chief female deity of the Ammonite pantheon.
Rabbah was located on the same site as modern 'Ammân (see IV below). In the 3rd cent. B.C. the place was hellenized and named (Gk.) Philadelpheia after Ptolemy II Philadelphus (285-247 B.C.), although Zenon, a Ptolemaic agent, still referred to it in his official records as Rhabbatamana. Eusebius (Onom. 16.15; 24.1f.) knew the Semitic name as simply (Gk.) Amman but was aware of its former name, Rhabbath (146.6f.). Moslem writers all referred to the town as 'Ammân (Ahamant in Crusader sources), which is its name today.
II. OT Period.–The allusion in Dt. 3:11 to the iron bedstead of Og, Amorite king of Bashan, which was evidently preserved as a trophy (dedicated to a temple?) at Rabbah of the Ammonites, suggests some connection of the city with the pre-Israelite (and pre-Ammonite?) culture of the 2nd millennium B.C. As capital of the Ammonite territory Rabbah controlled a considerable surrounding area, whose boundaries were recognized by the Israelites (cf. Josh. 13:25, where the proper rendering should be "Aroer, which is in front of "facing" Rabbah," contra RSV "east of"). The history of the city can be deduced to some degree from what is known about the people of AMMON.
If the text of 2 S. 10:6-8 is taken alone, it appears that the first open clash between David's forces and the Ammonite-Aramean alliance took place near the Ammonite capital (cf. v. 3), but v. 8 with its reference to a city gate is quite abrupt. 1 Ch. 19:7b supplies the additional detail that the allies encamped initially near Medeba;
