I am in the middle of solving a problem where I think it's best suited for a decorator and a state pattern. The high level setting is something like a sandwich maker and dispenser, where I have a set amount of ingredients and a few different types of sadnwiches i can make. Each ingedient has a cost associated with it. The client would be someone who will use the machine to select ingredients to make a particular swndwich and the machine would dispense it.
So far I have created the ingredients and the different types of sandwiches using the decorator pattern:
public abstract class Sandwich {
String description = "Unknown Sandwich";
public String getDescription(){
return description;
public double cost(){
return 0.0;
Each ingredient is modeled this this:
public abstract class Ingredient extends Sandwich {
public abstract String getDescription();
And further more, a concrete ingredient would be:
public class Cheese extends Ingredient {
private Sandwich sandwich;
public Cheese(Sandwich sandwich){
this.sandwich = sandwich;
public String getDescription() {
return sandwich.getDescription() + ", cheese";
public double cost() {
return 0.25 + sandwich.cost();
A specific type of a sandwich can be modeled like this:
public class BLT extends Sandwich {
public BLT(){
description = "Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato";
So a client would create a specific sandwich like this:
Sandwich order_a_blt = new Tomato(new Lettuce(new Bacon(new Bread(new BLT()))));
As a next step I will create a Dispenser object which will act as an automatic machine, which is pre-loaded with a specific number of ingredients (which are measured in generic units) and a user can press a button to choose one of the pre-set selections:
For example
- BLT: 1 unit of tomato, 1 unit of lettuce, 1 unit bacon, 1 unit bread
- SUB: 1 unit meatballs, 1 unit cheese, 1 unit italian_sauce, 1 unit bread
- etc..
My Dispenser machine will come preloaded with a fixed number of units per ingredient
- tomato: 10
- lettuce: 10
- bacon: 10
- etc..
And a list of buttons for the user to select a specific kind of sandwich:
- ..etc
The idea is to keep track of the internal capacity of ingredients and be able to tell the user that, say, we don't have enough bacon left to make another BLT
Now, my initial thought is do create the Dispenser object based on the state design pattern, but I have hit a problem trying to combine the objects of the Ingredient class with some kind of a storage within the Dispenser class. At first I though a map with name/value pairs the ingredient type/ingredient quantity. But I am not sure how to combine those patterns together so I can decrement automatically after every use.
Do you perhaps have a general idea on how to go ahead and implement such a concept? First of all am I on the right track with decorator and state patterns? Would there be a more efficient approach? I hope I have explained the problem clearly.
Thank you for any direction, I appreciate any thoughts

Is this known bug as of wp 3.1 ?
Is this known bug as of wp 3.1 ?
Anyone ? (I meant wpsc 0.9.9.9)
The thing is the function is running php code (like printing the time) but none of wp constants return value.
It works for me, I error_logged the WP_CONTENT_DIR constant and it displayed correctly.
Same problem here. I updated to 0.9.9.9 and wp 3.1 and the code that uses the "dynamic-cached-content" tag, that worked previously with 0.9.9.8 and wp 3.0.x, is now returning blank pages with just wpsc's timestamp on them.
Also, it does not allow me to delete these blank cached pages manually from the cache list (unless I delete the whole cache).
Note: something funny seems to happen with $wp_super_cache_late_init. After setting it to 1 and uploading the wp-cache-config.php file, it seems to reset it to 0 by itself after some time.
In any case, I re-tested it while the $wp_super_cache_late_init was set to 1 and it still returns the blank page with the timestamp, and does NOT return the phrase "Super Cache dynamic page detected but $wp_super_cache_late_init not set."
Re-tested with wpsc 0.9.9.8 and wp 3.1. Same problem.
OK, so something changed in WP 3.1 that causes the problem. Uncomment the error_reporting line at the start of wp-cache-phase1.php to help debug it and check out your PHP error log.
Thanks for the quick reply and also for the great plugin. I needed an immediate solution so I was forced to switch plugins, and am using DB Cache Reloaded.
Sincere apologies for not being able to help solve the problem, I can't have the two cache plugins running simultaneously on the server.
If someone else going through this problem is reading this please try to help the author solve the issue.

Fast Company, By: Neal Ungerleider
President Barack Obama ran on "change we can believe in"--and he and
the media will take the opportunity in this week's State of the Union
address to assess his response to the global economic crisis and
rebuilding America's health insurance system. But there's a quiet change
happening in his role as Commander-in-Chief, too--one you won't likely
hear much about in Tuesday evening's address. Slowly, with very few
observers noting it, Obama has become our first cyber-war president.
As popularly described in media and politics, "cyber war" includes
discreet information gathering, prolonged economic sabotage, and
pinpoint attacks against the infrastructure of rival states--through the
Internet and allied technologies such as USB stick-sharing. It would be
more accurate to call it the
war. So ... "cyber war" it is.

Ever see Hagler's late stoppages of Monroe and Colbert? Or his crushing of Seales, Watts and Minter?
Middleweights have always defended against moving up welters, so that criticism doesn't fly against anyone.
Reasons to appreciate Hagler?
Hagler became the legit number one contender in 1977. He was being throughly out boxed by the unbeaten Mike Colbert, until he landed the bomb that broke his jaw.
It took him two years to get his shot. Valdez should have been losing his belt to Marvleous in early 78.
Corro, Minter and Antuofermo should have only been challengers who lost and the number of defense would have been closer to 18 instead of 12.
You can forget the revisionist history surrounding that draw with Antuofermo. Marvin was flat out robbed. 10-5 was being generous to Vito. Then he had to wait almost another year.
Many are talking about the Hearns fight. Let's not forget that Hagler's face was ripped to shreds. Tommy opened up 60+ fights worth of scar tissue in less than 3 minutes. The ref had already called up the doctor to take a look. Marvin was minutes from being stopped himself when he landed those three monster shots.

16 Quality Dividend Stocks for the long run
In order to be flexible in this market and not limit myself only to higher yielding stocks with disappointing dividend growth prospects, I am considering lowering my entry yield criteria to 2.50%, down from the 3% which was in effect since the end of 2008. As long as the selected companies for purchase have long histories of consistent dividend raises in addition to having good prospects for future dividend growth, my yield on cost would keep on increasing over time.
The screening criteria applied toward the S&P Dividend Aristocrat index was:
1) Current yield of at least 2.50%
2) Dividend payout ratio no higher than 60%
3) Price/Earnings Ratio of not more than 20
4) 25 years or more of consecutive dividend increases
These investment ideas are only the beginning blocks of a sustainable dividend portfolio. Investors should strive to maintain a dividend portfolio consisting of at least 30 individual securities representative of as many sectors as possible. The process of building a dividend portfolio is long, as it takes time to find enough qualified candidates for further research. As a result investors should consistently apply their screening method under all market conditions, in order to take advantage of market opportunities, and include enough of the best rising dividend stars available.
Full Disclosure: Long all stocks mentioned above except LLY and VFC

Good list.ReplyDelete
CINF is one in particular that I've been looking at lately. I decided to go with HGIC instead (another insurer), as I liked their conservative collection of assets, but most importantly because while their dividend yield is lower than CINF, their recent increase was much larger. CINF still looks pretty good to me, though.

Great list, thanks! Several of those were on my watch list... all of them now are.ReplyDelete
It would of been nice to own these from the start of their dividend spree... That being said, have you ever given a thought to searching out companies who've recently (<5yrs) started paying dividends with a steady payout ratio? The future is impossible to predict but with a long term focus finding these needles in the haystack might payoff in spades. Thoughts? SBUX seems like a contender to me...
I'm surprised Coca Cola (KO) is not on this list. What criteria did they fail?ReplyDelete
Yes that`s true, Coke is one of my favorite dividend-stock...ReplyDelete
Look here:
Coca-Cola Is the Type of Stock Dividend Growth Investors Seek
Excellent list. One cautionary note: it has been more than a year since last LLY increased their dividend.ReplyDelete
This list is just for illustrative purposes only.ReplyDelete
KO was not included because its payout ratio was a little bit above 60%. I guess using mechanical rules does have its short comings. Other than that I do find KO to be a great company.
LLY is a little bit questionable, as it failed to boost distributions in December. I am not comfortable holding on to pharmaceuticals right now, as most face steep patent expirations cliffs over the next 2-4 years. Most pharma companies are growing through acquisitions, not through R&D discoveries.
I've had my eyes on pepsi for a while now. Not only am I total soda fiend myself, but their stock looked incredibly conservative. Fantastic for a dividend growth approach.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJune 9, 2010 at 9:25 AM
With Walgreens now discontinuing Caremark (CVS) prescriptions I think that ESRX-Express Scripts is a great play right now. Since the announcement it has gone up almost every day for the last few weeks.ReplyDelete

There is no meaning for "biệt đanh" in Vietnamese. I think it is "biệt danh" ! "Biệt danh" is nickname in English! Biệt (adjective): don't left anything. Biệt (verb) : leave a person or a place.

Preparations underway in Baton Rouge for a Star-Spangled Celebration
BATON ROUGE- The Fourth of July is a holiday for most, but many people arrived early Wednesday morning at the river front in Baton Rouge to set the stage for the city's Star-Spangled Celebration.
Members of Club South Runners set up the finish line and water stations for the BASF Freedom Mile which hit the streets at 8 a.m. Police blocked off Riverside Mall for the race course.
Vendors and workers continued to set up booths, tents and staging for the festival which promises to attract thousands of spectators.
Musical entertainment begins at 3:30 p.m. with 90-Degrees West, followed by a number of bands with Baton Rouge's own Chris LeBlanc rounding out the entertainment at 7:45 p.m.
In between, they'll be a mock attack on the U.S.S. Kidd and a hot air balloon liftoff.
The celebration ends with "Fireworks on the Mississippi" at 9 p.m. presented by WBRZ and The Advocate.
Maury Drummond of the U.S.S. KIdd reminds people to arrive early. "The parking garages downtown and the surface lots are open," he said.
He also added that the best place to see the fireworks was on the concrete steps near the U.S.S. Kidd and the city dock.

Bio: Unlike most band stories, the story of the LOWER CLASS BRATS did not start out "innocently enough". It was more like a full-blown attack on their local music scene. The war started in January 1995 in Austin, Texas when the BRATS set out to destroy all of the emo, college and garage bands that...See Full Bio
"2010 marks the 15 year anniversary for Lone Star-upstarts, LOWER CLASS BRATS as they set out on their West Coast "Still Hated - Never Ignored" 2010 Tour. This tour will be a bit different than previous outings on many levels. The band will hit the road alone, relying solely on the support of local bands on a nightly basis. The band has also decided to play a vast array of small clubs, DIY venues and even house parties with low door prices (all shows will be $8.00 or less!). But that's not all, the band will perform 1998's "Rather Be Hated Than Ignored" LP/CD in its entirety and making their first ever appearance at the Las Vegas Shakedown (another first!!). This will be a once in lifetime event that any fan of L.C.B. will not want to miss. See you on the road!!!"

Clock Tower, Taiping
4 Reviews
4 Reviews
The Old Clock Tower of Taiping was built in 1881. Originally built of wood, the structure was rebuilt from bricks nine years later, in 1890. The actual building was in the shape of a square fort, part of which has since been demolished. Between 1908 and 1950, the Clock Tower building was used as the town police station as well as the fire brigade. After that, it was left abandoned until recently, when it was converted into the Taiping Visitor Information Centre.
The Clock Tower of Taiping is the iconic landmark building of the town. It was under threat before being conserved as an important history of Taiping colorful past.
Located in the middle of town on the major road "Jalan Kota", it is hard to miss.
The rest of the building has been demolished but it used to be a police station and fire station. Now the clock tower section is used as an information center.
The Taiping Clock Tower has become a symbol of Taiping... Located on the main Jalan Kota, the building is very conspicious as you drive down Jalan Kota towards the Taiping Lake Garden... The tower was built of wood in the year 1881 and re-built in bricks in 1890. The actual building was in the shape of a square fort, part of which has since been demolished. There is a unique red telephone booth outside one of the two entrances to the tower...
The building was used as the town police station as well as the fire brigade between 1908 and 1950 before being abandoned... It is now used as the Taiping Visitor Information Centre.
One of many British Colonial Buildings. Built in 1870. A main landmark in Taiping. Initially was not in pink color. Just hate that color.

Highway management firm moving HQ out of Maryland Farms
Highway maintenance and engineering firm Infrastructure Corp. of America will relocate its headquarters from Maryland Farms to Brentwood space on the other side of Interstate 65 and the Davidson-Williamson county line.
ICA leaders have signed a lease for 17,000 square feet of space at the Brentwood Commons Office Park on Old Hickory Boulevard and will move about 80 people there next month. The move to the Boyle Investments- owned building comes a little more than two years after ICA acquired Kentucky-based engineering firm Florence & Hutcheson. The company had been based at 5110 Maryland Way, across the street from the YMCA, for the past decade.
In all, 15-year-old ICA employs more than 600 people in 12 states. Officials expect their HQ headcounts to grow to more than 100 later this year because of "strategic expansion" moves.
"We are excited and proud to take this step and re-establish our headquarters in Nashville, where our company was founded, with our sights set on growth and maximizing our tremendous potential," said CEO Butch Eley (pictured here). "Bringing our team together will contribute to better synergy, planning and execution of our mission to be the leading infrastructure solutions company in our industry."
Eley founded ICA in 1998 along with David Rader and Tom Beasley, a founder of Corrections Corp. of America. The company contracts with government entities to maintain roads, bridges, rest areas and the like. It has more than 20 long-term asset maintenance management contracts and more than 500 engineering services contracts. Locally, it works on I-840 and sections of I-65 and I-40 for the Tennessee Department of Transportation.

Sportsmen's expo this weekend
Just as the sun has finally come out in the Valley and all everybody wants to do is get outside, the big playground of indoor fun, the Sacramento International Sportsmen's Expo, has rolled into Cal Expo.
And yes, while the weather is spectacular for January, it's still worth spending a day under the fluorescent lights to wander the aisles of what is now — thanks to the death of the San Mateo show — the largest outdoor expo in Nor Cal.
This year's show promises to be a biggie. In addition to all the boats, guides, lodges and tackle companies on hand, the show will also feature: A major expansion of fly-fishing factory, retail and seminars, hosted by the American Fly Fishing Trade Association (Hall C); the NRA Hollywood Guns Museum display: Wayne, Die Hard, Eastwood, Luke Skywalker (Star Wars), Damon... more! Also new is the Orvis Fly Fishing 101 teaching program (free; next to Fisherman's Warehouse booth).
The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation will feature an all-new Great Elk Tour and Eastmans' Hunting Journals Trophy Deer Tour will also be on hand.

Fitch Affirms $1.3B Major League Baseball Trust Securitization Facility at 'A-'
The rating affirmation reflects, among other things, additional protection to facility noteholders provided by a new long-term broadcast agreement with ESPN to televise certain MLB regular-season games across the ESPN networks through 2013 and the recent long-term extension of an agreement with Turner Sports to continue showing Atlanta Braves baseball games nationally on TBS through 2012. The affirmation also considers, to a lesser extent, incremental noteholder protection provided by expected revenues from the XM Satellite Radio broadcast agreement, which was not in place when Fitch originally assigned its rating to Major League Baseball Trust. Fitch also notes principal amortization of the revolving and term notes is consistent with Fitch's expectations, in addition to improving economics at the league level, as reflected, in part, by record-setting park attendance figures in 2005 and the aforementioned television contract renewals and extensions.
Fitch's analysis also took into consideration a number of quantitative and qualitative factors, including, among other things:
-- MLB's position as a leading professional sports league in the U.S., its economic model, and the benefits of the 2002 collective bargaining agreement (CBA). Although its economic model is not as strong as the National Football League's ('A+' senior unsecured rating by Fitch), Fitch considers the current CBA a step in the right direction from the previous agreement, but substantial room for improvement still exists. Key components of the CBA include enhanced revenue sharing, a new debt service rule, and a competitive balance tax. While Fitch has not assigned a formal senior unsecured rating to Major League Baseball, it would be lower than the rating of this transaction due to the structural benefits offered by the securitization facility.
-- Pledged shared revenues from national media contracts. Fitch's analysis of national media contract revenues takes into consideration the diversity and credit quality of current national media contract counterparties, the duration, and the staggered timing of the renewal dates of these contracts. Fitch's stressed debt service analysis assumed disruptions in these cash flows and renewals at rates lower than current (and historical) contract rates.
-- An interest expense reserve account that was fully funded upon closing that is available throughout the term of the facility to pay unpaid interest when due. Amounts on deposit may also be used to reduce the outstanding principal of the note upon acceleration of the notes. This reserve provides additional protection in the event of an unforeseen disruption in the playing of MLB games and the potential delay in receiving revenues from national media contracts in the event of the bankruptcy of a current or future media contract counterparty.
-- A labor contingency interest reserve that specifically covers interest expense in the event of a league-wide work stoppage. After expiration of any CBA, including the current CBA (which expires in December 2006), and until the execution of a new CBA, this reserve will be established in an amount sufficient to cover nine months interest expense.
-- The transaction's legal structure, which incorporates the use of bankruptcy remote entities. Legal opinions from counsel state that the transfer of rights and revenues is a true contribution and not a secured borrowing and that in the event of a participating club bankruptcy, a bankruptcy court would not order substantive consolidation of the assets and liabilities of any club trust or the issuer with those of any participating club. Furthermore, the rights and revenues would not be subject to the automatic stay provisions of the bankruptcy code.
Over the duration of the facility, Fitch will continually monitor MLB's economic model, future collective bargaining agreements, the terms and conditions of media contract renewals, and the credit quality of current and future media contract counterparties. Any material change in Fitch's assessment of these factors could affect the rating of the facility.
Fitch's rating definitions and the terms of use of such ratings are available on the agency's public site, www.fitchratings.com. Published ratings, criteria and methodologies are available from this site, at all times. Fitch's code of conduct, confidentiality, conflicts of interest, affiliate firewall, compliance and other relevant policies and procedures are also available from the 'Code of Conduct' section of this site.

New Mom Natalie Portman Flashes Toned Legs in Blue Romper
Natalie Portman has a leg up on the rest of Hollywood's new moms.
PHOTOS: Natalie Portman's gorgeous pregnancy
While other stars sometimes struggle to shed their pregnancy pounds, the 30-year-old Oscar winner showed off her sexy stems in a light blue romper as she walked around New York City Monday. The actress was first spotted at a gas station with her fiance, Benjamin Millepied, and their son, reportedly named Aleph, in NYC late last week.
PHOTOS: Jaw-dropping post-baby bods
During an April interview with the Q100 Bert Show in Atlanta, Portman admitted that she quit being vegan shortly after becoming pregnant.
"If you're not eating eggs, then you can't have cookies or cake from regular bakeries, which can become a problem when that's all you want to eat," the Black Swan star said.
PHOTOS: Natalie Portman's romantic history
"I know there are people who do stay vegan," Portman added, "but I think you have to just be careful, watch your iron levels and your B12 levels and supplement those if there are things you might be low in in your diet."
How did Portman stay fit while pregnant with her first child? "I have been swimming every day," she told Us Weekly at the Oscars in February.

Check out as much of the functionality on your test site as possible. If there are any problems that will affect the way that you will need to handle the live upgrade then make a written note of them for later.
If you find errors you might check out the following possibilities:
- Ensure that all of the files were properly transferred. There have been verified reports of some FTP clients not properly transferring files across to a server without notifying the user of such a problem. One possible cause of this problem is that under certain circumstances the web server locks the files it is using and the FTP-server can't update those files. If this is the case you might try taking the site offline shortly during the FTP transfer.

Or a bad woman.
I read an article recently about some notorious historical adventuress who deliberately joined a convent to get at some pretty young thing she had a yen for. (The girl's parents had shipped her off to a convent in hopes of avoiding just such an "unnatural" attachment.)
She eventually burned down the convent and ran off with the other nun . . . .

So I didnt realize it would be so hard to get rash cream of the cloth diapers. I use to use disposables and would put rash cream on my baby girl after her poopy diapers only just for precaution. Anyways starting cloth I decided to still do the same and noticed when I wash them the cream stays on the diapers. I dont understand why it wont wash off. I tried scrubbing the crap out of them but the damb cream wont come off. The diapers are clean but the cream is worrying me some. Im figuring in the next couple washes maybe it will just fade away slowly. Anyone having this issue. My baby girl has never had a rash but I would always use it for precaution. Should I stop using the rash cream after her poopy diapers?
Rash Creams!! How do you get it off the diaper!!

Album Rating: 5.0"There's no way in possible hell that MMLP2 will live up to this"
Doesn't even need to be said. Em's best verse from the past 3 years doesn't compare to the worst fart out of his asshole in 2000.
"apparently Beats by Dr Dre, the most overpriced cans out thereTM are a prominent subject of the new album?"
Wouldn't surprise me. Eminem has always enjoyed his Dre backing, and Dre has used Eminem in the past to boost his rep ("Forgot About Dre" especially). The only thing Dre has going for himself now are his Beats headphones, why not bring Em in to try to give them more of a boost?

Definite Answers to Possible Questions
A user-friendly guide to the room selection process
and other roommate questions.Room Selection Guide
When and where can I pay my room deposit?
You may begin paying your room deposit at My heliotrope online at http://my.purchase.edu.
My friend is STUDYING ABROAD this semester but will return in the fall. We want to live together. Is that possible?
The Office of International Student Affairs has provided Community Engagement with a list of study abroad students returning for the fall. If your friend was on that list and lived on campus IMMEDIATELY PRIOR to their abroad semester, then YES, they can go through room selection. They have to go through the same steps for room selections as you do EXCEPT they will have someone (a GROUP LEADER) go through the steps for them. (If they are flagged by Student Accounts then the person is probably not able to go through room selection. They should contact a Community Engagement Professional staff member ASAP at 914-251-6320)
We want to live in an apartment. She has 24 credits and is taking 12 credits this semester. What are our chances of getting an apartment?
You have to be either 21 years old or have 36 completed credits at the time of application (as in today) to even be eligible to apply for an apartment (except Year Round/ PREP apartments). Also, because apartments are the most sought after type of housing, if everyone in your group is in the same higher credit bracket, the better chance you have at selecting an apartment.
I cannot be here for room selection. What do I do?
You can actually complete the entire process online, so your physical presence is not required at any point in the process.
How do I get my money back if I change my mind about living on-campus?
Room deposits are refundable before May 1, 2016 for returning residents withdrawing from housing only when the Office of Community Engagement receives written notification.
The credits indicated on the license agreement are wrong. What do I do?
That information is given to us from the Registrar's Office. The only way to correct them is through working with the Office of the Registrar - we cannot assist with resolving that issue. Your best course of action is to correct these credits NOW, since it can impact your degree progress in the future.
I don't have money for the room deposit right now. Can I still go through room selection?
No. All applicants are required to pay a room deposit to secure a space for the Fall 2016 semester. All students that currently live on campus and do not participate in the room selection process by paying a deposit and completing their RLA online by February 2016.
How do I qualify for the apartments?
You need to have either 36 credits completed at the conclusion of the Fall 2015 semester or be 21 years of age at time of selection.
What is Graduate/Nontraditional Housing?
This is apartment living that groups full-time graduate students and nontraditional aged undergraduates (at least 24 years of age at time of selection). You need not have a full apartment roster for these spaces, but you must pay your housing deposit and complete a individual group roster for these spaces.
Who can sign up for a Residence Hall singles?
Students can go into the incomplete group selection based on their credits and if spaces are still available students will be able to see and choose the single. We will advise that there are minimal amounts of these rooms so they are selected very quickly in the process.
What happens if I don't have a roommate or apartment mates, but I want a room or apartment?
You will still be able to participate in room selection. Each day we will have two different selections going on, the morning will be for full group rosters and in the afternoon we will have selection for incomplete groups and individual's to select housing. Full groups are considered 2, 4, 6 and 8 and group configuration other than that will be considered incomplete.
What if I lose my roommate after room sign-ups?
You will be left in your room. However, you will not be able to pull someone into that vacancy. We will assign someone new to campus or from the waiting list to that space.
How will I know if I get an apartment/suite?
When you submit your group roster, you place your group on the list. We then create the order based on the total credits of everyone on your roster. We will email only the groups that we have enough apartments /suites for. If your name does not make the list, you will be emailed to resubmit your group roster for a new housing type.
I need to live in Year Round Housing. How can that happen?
You will sign up for PREP housing. It is for those who need housing while the college residential facilities are closed. PREP is located in Alumni Village. There are two types: those who want year round which begins in May, or academic year, which begin August 29th. Both types will conclude in May of 2017. These are apartment deluxe singles at an increased rate.
Do I have to put my application in with a roommate if I want PREP housing?
No, you can apply for PREP Housing by yourself. Please know that academic year students will be housed with other academic year, and year round with year round students.
My roommate and I want to squat our apartment/ suite. What do we do?
Squatting is no longer allowed. If you want to return to the same room you are in, you will have to select the same space if still available when it is your time to select an apartment.
What happens if I don't get what I want?
If you are not seeing the area or type of housing that you want it is because those areas or room styles are already full. What you see is all that is left to choose from. You can go back on then select a different housing complex.
I don't have a preference for a living area. Can you just assign me anywhere?
We CAN assign you to an available space after room selection ends. Make sure you pay your deposit and fill out and submit your license agreement before the February 2016 deadline. After room selection is completed, all license agreements for which no room was selected will be assigned to rooms from whatever rooms are available. Please note that there is a large demand for on-campus housing and if you do not select a living area, you could potentially be assigned to a residence hall triple.
Selecting the correct contract.
When you pay your $250 deposit make sure you are selecting the correct contract. The first contract you will see is for prep housing, if you do not want prep housing please go down to continuing student. If you have made a mistake, just e-mail us at firstname.lastname@example.com and we can fix it for you.
Being able to join in on room selection
If you would like to take part in room selection, which is when you get a day and time slot to pick the space you want to live next year you will need to pay your deposit by February 2016.
If you are picking a room as an individual and not part of a group all you need to do is pay the deposit before the selection time that corresponds to you earned credit hours, you will get a day and time slot to log in and pick an open space from the remaining rooms.
Selecting your roommates
If you are picking a room as a group, you will need to pay your deposit, and follow the instructions in the e-mail that went out about selecting roommates. You will not be able to select a roommate who has not paid the housing deposit, the name will not show up for you.
What day will you select your new room?
All room selections are based on credits. If you submit a group of 4 people and you have 95 credits, 82 credits, 74 credits, and 46 credits, you will not be able to pick a room until the 4th day of selection (3/16). EVERYONE in your group must qualify to select on that given day. The chart needed to qualify is:
90+ -
75+ -
60+ -

Physical Description
Peck's skippers are also known as yellow patch skippers because of the light colored post median spot bands on the underside of the forewings. The central spot is elongated and extends out toward the wing margin. Males have a dark black stigma on the upper surface of the forewing that separates the orange margin from the darker portion of the wing. These are small skippers, with the forewing lengths of females averaging 1.3 cm (1.2-1.4 cm). Males are slightly smaller with forewing lengths of 1.2 cm (1.1-1.3 cm).
Larvae are deep maroon colored with light brown mottling. The head is black with two white vertical streaks on the upper front and two white patches below.
The eggs of Peck's skippers are cream colored and develop reddish mottling in irregular patterns.
The chrysalis is reddish purple with white wing cases.
Range wingspan: 2.2 to 2.5 cm.
Other Physical Features: ectothermic ; heterothermic ; bilateral symmetry
Sexual Dimorphism: female larger; sexes colored or patterned differently
- Opler, P., G. Krizek. 1984. Butterflies East of the Great Plains. Baltimore: John Hopkins University Press.
These grassland skippers prefer open areas with ample nectar sources, such as meadows, powerline right-of-ways, prairies, parks and vacant lots.
Habitat Regions: temperate
Terrestrial Biomes: savanna or grassland
Other Habitat Features: suburban ; agricultural

Comments: A variety of mostly disturbed grasslands such as hayfields, pastures, old fields, right of ways, eastward; also mountain meadows and prairies as well as disturbed places westward. Most habitats are more or less mesic but also at least around the edges of wetlands.
Non-Migrant: No. All populations of this species make significant seasonal migrations.
Locally Migrant: No. No populations of this species make local extended movements (generally less than 200 km) at particular times of the year (e.g., to breeding or wintering grounds, to hibernation sites).
Locally Migrant: No. No populations of this species make annual migrations of over 200 km.
Trophic Strategy
The larvae feed primarilly on rice cutgrass (Leersia oryzoides) and bluegrass (Poa pratensis), although other grasses are probably used.
Adults have been recorded nectaring on clover (Trifolium spp.), alfalfa (Medcago sativa), winter cress (Bararea vulgaris), joe-pye weed (Eupatorium maculatum), teasel (Dipsacus sylvestis), thistle (Cirsium spp.), purple coneflower (Echinacae purpurea), ironweed (Vernonia spp.), and blazing star (Liatris spicata). They have also been seen sipping from mud and moist soil.
Plant Foods: leaves; nectar
Primary Diet: herbivore (Folivore , Nectarivore )

Peck's skippers serve as minor pollinators and as prey for a variety of predators.
Ecosystem Impact: pollinates
Predators of all life stages of butterflies include a variety of insect parasatoids. These wasps or flies will consume the body fluids first, and then eat the internal organs, ultimately killing the butterfly. Those wasps that lay eggs inside the host body include species in many different groups: Ichneumonidae, Braconidae, Pteromalidae, Chalcidoidea, Encyrtidae, Eulophidae, Scelionidae, Trichogrammatidae, and others. Trichogrammatids live inside the eggs, and are smaller than a pinhead. Certain flies (Tachinidae, some Sarcophagidae, etc.) produce large eggs and glue them onto the outside of the host larva, where the hatching fly larvae then burrow into the butterfly larvae. Other flies will lays many small eggs directly on the larval hostplants, and these are ingested by the caterpillars as they feed.
Most predators of butterflies are other insects. Praying mantis, lacewings, ladybird beetles, assasin bugs, carabid beetles, spiders, ants, and wasps (Vespidae, Pompilidae, and others) prey upon the larvae. Adult butterflies are eaten by robber flies, ambush bugs, spiders, dragonflies, ants, wasps (Vespidae and Sphecidae), and tiger beetles. The sundew plant is known to catch some butterflies.
There are also many vertebrate predators including lizards, frogs, toads, birds, mice, and other rodents.

Life History and Behavior
Butterflies generally communicate through visual or pheremone recognition, or by tactile methods during courthship.
Communication Channels: visual ; tactile ; chemical
Other Communication Modes: pheromones
Perception Channels: visual ; tactile ; chemical
Life Cycle
Peck's skippers have the ability to transform straight to the adult form of the next brood or slow down their growth and hibernate as 3rd, 4th, or 5th stage larvae. They are also reported to hibernate as pupae.
Development - Life Cycle: metamorphosis ; diapause
Male Peck's skippers perch on low vegetation in sunny areas to await females. Courtship activities occur throughout the day. Mated pairs are observed mainly in the afternoon.
Peck's skippers have two broods in the north and three in the southern portion of their range. Females lay their eggs singly on appropriate substrate.
Breeding interval: Peck's skippers have two broods in the north and three in the southern portion of their range.
Breeding season: The flight period ranges from May through October.
Key Reproductive Features: iteroparous ; seasonal breeding ; gonochoric/gonochoristic/dioecious (sexes separate); sexual ; fertilization (Internal ); oviparous
There is no parental care provided by butterflies.
Parental Investment: no parental involvement

Polites peckius
The Peck's Skipper (Polites peckius) is a North American butterfly in the family Hesperiidae (skippers), subfamily Hesperiinae (grass skippers). This skipper ranges across Canada from British Columbia, as far north as Cartwright, Labrador; Moar Lake, Ontario; Leaf Rapids, Manitoba; and the Hay River area in Alberta. In the US, it ranges in most of the northern and central states, except on the west coast.
Both sexes have dark brown and yellowish-orange markings. Ventrally, both sexes have a large straw-coloured patch in the middle of the hindwing. This patch helps distinguish it from other Polites.[1] Like other skippers the ends of the antennae have tiny hooks. Wingspan is from 19 to 27 mm.
Flies from June through early August on flowers, at roadsides, wet meadows, and in gardens.

Respond to Review of Common Market - South End
by 3dollarbill
Review: great selection of house-made vegan salads, pastries, & deli offerings. i drive 1hr each way once a week for the stellar "chicken-less salad" in the cold case- they often sell out several times in a week. also in the cold case are dumplings, stuffed grape leaves, edamame salad, thai noodles, and black bean salad also all vegan. the vegan cupcake roster changes often with flavors like key lime, butterscotch,and strawberry; sometimes there's even vegan cake choices. the deli has a variety of vegan sandwich selections for breakfast or lunch, as well. cool vibes,rad beer/wine selection and friendly staff also make this place a good place to hang.

Mother's Day is coming, so it's time to show our appreciation for those amazing women who hold it all together. With poetry, photographs, creepy monsters, and a weird family next door, this month's recommendations give us a chance to celebrate the women who bring home the bacon, tuck kids into bed, bake cakes and remind us how important it is to always listen to our mothers. Cheers to all of you.
Bloomsbury USA | $11.55 | Amazon.com I don't know about you, but I spend a lot of time putting kids to bed, and every so often, I wonder would happen if the tables were turned. Apparently, so did Amy Krouse Rosenthal. The illustrations are charming and kids love the idea of being in charge of the nightly ritual. As for moms, well, I wouldn't complain if someone made me a bubble bath at bedtime.
Random House Australia | $9.99 | Amazon.com Every kid needs a grandmother, but Peter and Sally Smith didn't have one. So they found an old lady at the shopping mall and brought her home with them. Which may sound strange, but as Peter tells his father, "You never know when something might come in handy." This is another odd and brilliant book by Colin Thompson, filled with unique and unexpected illustrations. Once their new Granny is well-settled, the Smith family realized "the one thing their lives had lacked all these years was an old lady." I feel the same way about this book.
Candlewick Press| $13.59 | Amazon.com It wouldn't do to forget Mother Earth as we celebrate Mother's Day, and I can't think of a more beautiful way to honor her than with this lovely book of poems. Verses range from "Dandelions" and "Five Reasons to Keep Chickens" to "Spiderlings" and "Just Ducks" -- and cover all the glory of the four seasons. My four-year old and I scroll through the pages until he finds a picture he likes and then we read the poem that goes with it. So far, we've loved them all.
Candlewick Press | $13.70 | Barnes & Noble Moving from poems about the seasons to poems inspired by the ocean, this collection of often funny verses about animals under the sea is short enough to be read at bedtime, but rich enough to inspire all sorts of conversations about the creatures we rarely see. Mother Nature would be proud.
Candlewick Press | $10.87 | Amazon.com Little kids spend a lot of time looking at bugs. My son is fascinated with butterflies, ants and bees, but they flash by so quickly, I wonder if he really appreciates how amazing they are. "Step Gently Out" gives readers extraordinary close-up photographs of bees, ants, crickets and more, ensuring that we'll never look at these tiny creatures the same way again. With a glossary of pictures and more detailed descriptions at the end, the book also gives parents and kids a chance to learn more about their favorite insects.
HarperCollins | $9.14 | Barnes & Noble Ever wonder what a baby dreams? This mom did, and took pictures to capture what she imagined those dreams were. The result is part Anne Geddes, part "Where the Wild Things Are," and entirely beautiful.
Hyperion Books for Children | $13.41 | Barnes & Noble In honor of Mother Earth, I'm recycling a former recommendation. "Always Listen to Your Mother" has two different mothers, two very different parenting styles, and two little boys who become friends in spite of it. Mush together the Addams Family and "Leave it to Beaver" and you've got this gem of a book that will have moms everywhere smiling.
Michael di Capua Books | $16.47 | Amazon.com On the surface, yes, I admit this is a Halloween book. But the search for our moms transcends holiday or genre, and I've already read "Are You My Mother?" about a thousand times. I recommend this one despite my general loathing for pop-up books (which always end up torn and tattered) because, well, it's Sendak after all, and I love watching a little boy fearlessly confront monsters in search of someone to love him.
Gallery Books | $10.20 | Amazon.com Ok, ok, so it's not at all a children's book, but even moms need something to read. So once you've read the bedtime stories, tucked everyone safely in and found your glass of wine, do yourself a favor and pick this one up. If you need an irreverent, hysterical and oftentimes too-close-for-comfort look at motherhood, you need Scary Mommy. Trust me, you'll thank me in the end.

text: These are nice lookin bars, but they don't mount to the steering column very well. That is, the stock steering column is one piece and made for skinny bars. The Trail tech bar clamp mounts straight to the steering column so it leaves a half-circle between the two parts where your old bars used to sit. Looks a little awkward, but the feel and look of the actual bars is great. Rosie likes the red too, so they will work. With a little re-shaping, the stock plastic bar clamp cover can be modified to cover up the funny lookin steering column gap too... so overall a good piece.
