The Grand Master' s Palace.
This was the official residence of the Grand Master of the Knights of S. John. It was built between 1571 and 1574. Later it was the British Grovernor' s residence and amministrative office. Today it houses the Parliament and also serves as the President of Malta' s office.
Here you can see only five rooms and there is no guided tour offered. If you want to visit the armoury you have to buy another ticket..
Fun Alternatives: You could visit Casa Rocca Piccola (see tip).

No Crafts Found at Crafts and Traditions Museum
My friend and I decided to kill time at the Crafts and Traditions Museum in Valletta. What a waste of my money. I've noticed that a lot of the museums claim to be Multi-Media exhibits, but this one was nothing more than a walkman and a tape cassette that guides you through a two roomed exhibit. There are plenty of quality museums in Malta, but this unfortunately is not one of them.
Unique Suggestions: Have an open mind and a good imagination-especially when you get to the end and it drops you into the restaurant, where in my case, people we eating and staring at me like a freak with a headset on.
Fun Alternatives: Go to the Upper Barracca Gardens instead. At least it has nice views and it is free!

Where NOT to have a lunch or a coffee
During your stay in Valletta, you will have many, many things to see, mostly by walking and sightseeing. This means that from time to time you'll have to stop and have a lunch or a cup of coffee. Here is a catch. Never, but never have a coffee at the Central square (Republic street), cos it is 4 times more expensive than any other place in Valletta. For example, cappuccino is here 2.5 LM (Maltese pounds) which is like 6 euros, and only 100 meters away, in some other street it is 55 cents (1.2 euros). Try also to avoid souvenir shops in this area :)
The Sunday Market
I really didn't like the Sunday market at Valletta. Usually I love markets but something about this one just did not appeal. Maybe it was the sheer quantity of caged wild birds - something I really find objectionable - or maybe just that everything else on sale seemed to be utter junk. We even saw sunscreen that was in bottles that looked dirty, broken and used, and looked about 10 years old - surely it must have been past it's best?
Fun Alternatives: I liked the market in the city centre a whole lot better. I'm not sure if its on every day, but it was a Monday when we visited that market.
Beware of taxis
Most white taxis do not have meters - they will often quote you a rate to where you wnat to go and the rate is not that realiable. Similarly hotels have their own tame cab firms which are also not the cheapest. From personal experience I found that Wembley cabs were not a rip off - the MTL 8 fare suggested by other companies to Valletta from my hotel was often only MTL 5 with a Wembley Cab.
Unique Suggestions: Make sure you agree a fee in advance - otherwise you might pay substantially over the odds for your taxi ride.
Fun Alternatives: If time is no object and you are travelling during the day, then the bus system is the best and cheapest way to get around (MTL 0.20 i.e. EUR 0.50) for a single zone trip. Granted you will usually have to go via Valletta but the cost savings are considerable.
Negotiate a price .......
If you must have a ride on a "Karrozzin" then do negotiate a price before you attempt to get aboard. There is no set charge, and most people pay a hefty price.
They are lovely to photograph, and if there a few of you and your feet are tired walking the hilly streets, then perhaps it is worth your while.
Beware of white taxi cabs....
Beware of white taxi cabs. Some are in the habit of over charging. Negotiate the fee beforehand as one might be literally taken for A RIDE EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE METERS. There is no problem however when one takes a taxi from the Airport to wherever as one buysand pays for the ticket at the Airport Office.
The HABOUR of La Valetta . If...
The HABOUR of La Valetta . If you want to see all of the Capital City it takes a long time . Everywhre you go LA VALETTA has a rich history and beautiful views .

2010 Profits for Network Rail surpassed £2 billion last year amid inflation-excessive fare rises and extra delays.
The announcement of the operator's annual profits has drawn fire from numerous sources, not only in the wake of fare rises but also following its decision to axe thousands of jobs last year. Meanwhile, recently released figures show Network Rail's on time rating fell from 91.5% in 2009 to 90.95 in 2010.
Officials downplayed controversy this week and attributed the hefty profits to its cost-cutting initiatives recently put in place rather than the rise in ticket prices – which to passengers passenger dismay were lifted past the rate of inflation and will be again next year. Season ticket holders for trains between London and Gravesend, Kent saw the fare bumped almost 13% to £3,768 from £3,340.
But over the year the organization managed to push its maintenance and operating costs down even further; the figure for such costs has dropped from £11.64 per train mile seen in 2005 to just £7.61 in 2011.
The news comes ahead of another fare rise set to go into affect in January, when passengers will see the rate of inflation plus an additional 3% tacked on to the current price of a ticket. The boost will mean a double-digit increase for millions of passengers.

Cranberry Apple Tea
Cranberry Apple tea is a full-flavored and pungent fruit blend with dried apple pieces, hibiscus, rose hip peels, and natural flavors. Since this is purely an herbal blend (i.e., no actual tea leaves), you can brew it as long as you want and it won't get bitter. This makes it a good choice for simmering on the stove with cinnamon sticks and an orange slice, or you can even add apple cider or red wine for more festive occasions. This tea also makes great low-sugar popsicles for the kids. Caffeine-free.

The project will see the opening of a new teaching centre for tax officials in the provincial town of Novi Sad, which will aim to train 1,000 officials in the next 15 months. Three other centres around Serbia will also open.
The tax centres will provide information to the public on the role of the taxpayer in what is one of the last eastern European countries to adopt the standard western liberal capitalist model.
The EU programme ðadministered by the European Agency for Reconstruction (EAR) ð will also upgrade 160 offices of Serbia's tax authority, supplying IT equipment and work management software.
At the Novi Sad opening ceremony, EAR Belgrade chief Adriano Martins said: 'Although tax is not always very popular with the public, it remains an essential source of funds for education, health and other public services. The [Serb] government has made reforming the tax system a clear priority.'

Navy's New Ship and Crew Multi-Task; the Modular Vessel Can Be Adapted as Needed
Gibbons, Timothy J., The Florida Times Union
Byline: TIMOTHY J. GIBBONS
The crew of the Navy's newest ship - a type that may one day fill the basin at Mayport Naval Station - has adapted to a new way of doing business as it prepares for its first deployment years ahead of schedule.
"We have some folks doing things totally outside of their comfort zone," said Cmdr. Jim Edwards, executive officer of the USS Freedom. "We're paradigm-breaking."
The Freedom, the Navy's first littoral combat ship (LCS), stopped Thursday at Mayport to finish work before heading out to practice with the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower and its strike group.
The LCS program represents a major shift for the Navy, which is hoping a smaller crew and the ability to outfit the vessel for different missions gives the fleet more flexibility.
The service needs the vessels sooner rather than later, Navy brass has said.
"The sooner we integrate them into our fleet, the sooner we can incorporate them in the order of battle," Adm. J.C. Harvey Jr., commander of U.S. Fleet Forces, said last month when announcing the earlier deployment. "This deployment offers a golden opportunity to learn by doing."
The new approach to the ship's design is obvious inside and out. A huge flight deck dominates the front of the vessel, with an adjacent hangar allowing the ship to carry multiple helicopters, including the unmanned rotary-wing Fire Scout that is now being tested on the USS McInerney.
Down below, the ship has two 33-foot-long inflatable boats, while atop are guns designed to be used for surface warfare missions.
In theory, almost half the ship can be reconfigured with modules brought aboard that would equip the ship to hunt submarines or search for mines.
Signs of that modular nature can be found throughout the ship, including the large gray shipping containers holding equipment used by the helicopter squadron and even bunks for some of the additional personnel temporarily assigned to the ship.
Mayport is slated to get eight of the new ships between 2015 and 2019, with additional ones possible in years after that, although that schedule is widely seen as overly optimistic. Those vessels would serve to replace the 13 frigates now home-ported at the naval station, ships that will be phased out over the next five years.
The LCS program has been criticized over the five years it has been in the works, with opponents knocking the escalating cost and some of the strategic assumptions behind the design. The Freedom came in closer to $640 million, rather than the $220 million originally projected.
For those aboard the Freedom, the opportunity to work in a new way has been a success. …

Interesting, according to this article IBM DB2 will support Stored procedures and UDTs written in .NET. I wonder if it will be released before Yukon? (but more importantly, will this mean that yukon and DB2 CLR SP's will be interchangeable? the article doesn't says).

To All:
I have been eyeing a SUMMIT (24" wheel) tricycle at Walt's cycle & fitness, i.e.,
http://www.waltscycle.com/trikes.htm (near top)
I also been eyeing the WORKSMAN adult-lite (Eagle Tricycle EAG-3CB) as in
http://worksmancycles.com/shopsite_s...ulttrikes.html (scroll 3/5 down)
The difference is, for SUMMIT's trike, I can just pick it up (assuming Walt's has it in stock),
while with WORKSMAN's trike, I would need to special order, and pay for shipping, rear
fenders and assembly. [I will be draggin a 4-wheels walker, so I'll need rear fenders)
These two trikes because the rear wheel gap is big enough (walker is 22" wide) and light
enough (< 40 lbs or so).
What can you people say about the quality between a SUMMIT"s and WORKSMAN's?
Bottom line: is it worth spending a few hundreds more for a WORKSMAN?
Any other comments?

The 2008 Galitzine Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon contains 1% Merlot. It proffers a brooding aromatic array of toasty oak, Asian spices, incense, a hint of sage, violets, and assorted black fruits. More structured than the preceding wines, "No doubting it's Red Mountain" say the Golitzins, it has plenty of ripe tannin more than balanced by loads of succulent fruit, exceptional density, richness and power.Drink Dates: 2016-2033

(99% cabernet sauvignon with 1% merlot; all of the Quilceda Creek reds are aged in 100% new French oak): Complex, expressive aromas and flavors of redcurrant, minerals, menthol, smoke and tobacco. Fat, sweet and concentrated, with an almost liqueur-like ripeness to its highly concentrated, palate-saturating flavors. This savory, chewy wine finishes with huge tannins that reach the incisors and lingering notes of blueberry and minerals.Author: Stephen Tanzer

Early voting has been open for a week now and both Potter and Randall Counties say the turnout has been higher than previous years.
"Numbers are up considerably. It's almost twice as much as we had in 2007, 2009 and 2011 at this time, and mail ballots are up more than significantly," said Shannon Lackley, Randall County elections administrator.
There have been more than 1,000 early votes in Potter County as of today.
"I compared it to 2011, which would have been a comparable election and they ended up with almost 1,300 total. We still have a week of early voting to go plus Election Day,â?? Melynn Huntley, Potter County elections administrator.
This is the first statewide election since the voter identification law was passed. Contrary to the anticipated problems, things have been going smoothly, according to election officials.
The mobile election stations have been travelling around Texas Randall County since Friday. Lackley says no election identification certificates have been issued the stations.
Name discrepancies are not a large problem either. Many voters were worried that the difference in their name between their photo ID and the voter registration database would cause complications.
Huntley assures voters that small differences will not keep them from voting.
"We look at totality of circumstances. If its similar and the date of birth matchâ?|they're going to get to vote,â?? Huntley said.
Both Lackey and Huntley agree that the controversial issues of the proposed constitutional state amendments and the Amarillo Recreational Complex are responsible for the high voter turnout.
Early voting is open through Nov. 2. More information can be found at the Randall County election website or the Potter County Election website.

Cal State, UC students brace for another round of higher tuitions & program cutbacks
The UC Regents today are expected to approve an increase in student tuitions by 9.6%, on top of a previously approved 8% boost, both of which are scheduled to go into effect for the fall. Combined the average increase will mean $1,818 more out of students' pockets in the coming years, pushing the cost of UC education over $13,000 a year. The Cal State Board of Trustees on Tuesday voted to raise tuition by 12%, also the second increase in a year, that will make the average price for a year at a CSU campus about $6,400—twice the cost of what it was in 2007. While tuitions are going up, again, at both CSU and UC the programs, classes and staffs are all being cut, meaning that students are paying more for less. This is the culmination of an unfortunate perfect storm for California's higher education students: at a time when a college diploma and training is more valuable than ever before, and an affordable four year university is key during a slumping economy, the state's public education institutions are pulling back. The aforementioned bad economy and state budget deficits that are annual occurrences has added up to severe cutbacks at California's once-prized universities. We hear directly from the students to see how they'll cope with another year of higher tuitions.

<3 strongheart. she needs more love in the fandom
She sort of looks like a pig.
She's still absolutely adorable!
Of course not! I'd be surprised if she's as amazingly nimble as she was as a heifer, but she seems to make up for it with muscle. "And that's how it comes, son, that in this here branch of the Apple clan, we HEADBUTT the apples down!"
Wow! Either she's grown up and has been working out, or she's grown up and taken to 'roids.
You know, I actually didn't until now? XD
She did grew big!
Not so little anymore, is she?
I remember her being thinner ._.
All buffalo calves are skinny compared to their parents.
What? I'm offended that you even suggest someone forget about her.
I SO want her to show up again.

Remember. And wait for every new work in your awesome style.
Of course we remember you!

AMD Goes Open Source with APL
AMD has released its AMD Performance Library (APL) under the Apache License 2.0 as the Open Source Framewave project.
According to AMD the library not only handles arithmetic operations but provides optimized image and signal handling. This will developers the ability to eke more performance out of multiple core and multiple CPU systems. The library's properties are particularly useful for media player software, codecs, image manipulation, audio applications and streaming says AMD.
AMD's motivation for going Open Source is to optimize the software by giving partners, customers and the community the ability to contribute. In addition to this, AMD is looking to extend the library's functionality by letting contributors implement features that reflect their own needs. To support this objective AMD says that it will support developers by continuing to work on developing the library. The project homepage also has setup how-tos for build systems.
AMD opted for the Apache License 2.0. Version 1.0 of the Framewave library is available from Sourceforge.net as a zipped tar archive with or without source code for the Linux, Solaris, Mac OS and Windows platforms.

Feel free to load up on DDR3 memory without worrying about it going obsolete in the next 12 months, or even 24 months. According to market research firm IHS iSuppli, DDR3 modules, which currently claim between 85-90 percent of the memory market, will remain the dominant DRAM type for at least three more years before it starts to give up ground to faster, next-generation DDR4 modules.
"DDR3 has been the main DRAM module technology shipped in terms of bits since the first quarter of 2010, gaining adoption quickly in the PC ecosphere as the market's primary driver," said Clifford Leimbach , analyst for memory demand forecasting at IHS. "Not only is DDR3 the dominant technology today in the three PC channels for original equipment manufacturers, the PC white-box space and the upgrade market, DDR3 is also the chief presence across all PC applications, such as desktops and laptops, as well as their subcategories in the performance, mainstream and entry-level computing sectors."
By the end of 2011, IHS iSuppli predicts DDR3 will account for 89 percent of the 808 million DRAM module units shipped, up from 67 percent one year ago and 24 percent in 2009. In 2012, DDR3 will account for 92 percent of all memory and then peak at 94 percent in 2013 "before it heads down an irreversible cycle of decline that starts in 2014." By 2015, IHS iSuppli predicts DDR4 will account for the majority of DRAM with a 56 percent market share.

Fairfield and the community were hit hard by the tropical storm, but the campus pulled together
Adding to the housing issue was the fact that the 464 students living in the townhouses — the only major structures on campus not connected to the University's co-gen plant — had to be evacuated. Though the buildings sustained minimal structural damage, they had no lights, sprinklers or heat, so they had to be closed each night for a week until the town's electric grid was up and running. "Over 200 of these students were accommodated on campus, and others found their own temporary housing," said Donoghue. "But we also reached out to faculty, staff, and our alumni community, asking if anyone would be willing to house a couple of students for an indefinite amount of time."
"Within days, we had this overwhelming response from the community," said Donoghue, noting that 178 people stepped forward to offer an extra bedroom or two, even a guesthouse.
Among them was President Jeffrey P. von Arx, S.J., who opened his home to four seniors whose beach house was flooded. "The National Guard kept everyone off the beach for most of the week, but when we finally got down there you could see that the water had been up to the doorknobs," said Andrew Cunningham '13, an accounting major from Massachusetts who was one of the four, with Paul Rosen '13, Kevin Bachman '13, and Tyler Haviland '13. "The walls, staircase, and flooring all had to be ripped out, and the appliances were ruined." Fortunately, Cunningham said, "our landlord has been great," and the four were able to move back in mid-January.
While the town struggled to recover, the University became an oasis. The RecPlex opened its showers to town residents, employees, and first responders, many of whom were working long hours and couldn't get to their own homes. Beds and meals were also made available for the town's emergency personnel.
When three local women rallied the town for a beach clean-up day, Steve Parker '10 both working in the Admissions Office, eagerly organized a contingent of more than 130 University students, alumni, and friends, many traveling a distance to help put "their beach community" back together. Equipped with rakes, shovels, garbage bags, and gloves, teams of volunteers fanned out and were assigned to homes to shovel sand, clear debris, and gut interiors.
In the days after the storm, it became clear that communities in New York and New Jersey suffered a great deal more devastation than Fairfield. To help alleviate the overwhelming needs of neighborhoods in the Rockaways (N.Y.), The Center for Faith and Pubic Life's JUHAN (Jesuit Universities Humanitarian Action Network) led a dozen students and staff members to the area, where teams spent the day ripping out water-soaked floors and wallboards and shoveling several tons of sand out of homes. The effort continues monthly throughout the spring semester.
Using the storm and its aftermath as a learning experience comes naturally to Fairfield professors. "I tell my classes that, in times of crisis, a true leader takes action," said Dr. Lisa Mainiero, who teaches classes in management and leadership in the Dolan School of Business. "I'm proud to say my students ran with it, organizing bake sales, coat drives, and candy cane sales. They raised over $1,000 and distributed it to several agencies, and they delivered about 50 coats to an agency in Staten Island. Even more importantly, they showed they can create a leadership platform by developing a vision of who they wanted to help and in what way."
New Media students used their cameras to document a different story: that of the community coming together over the beach clean up. Says Rachel Greco '13 in A Sandy Silver Lining, "Sandy may have brought sadness, destruction, and displacement, but she strengthened the town of Fairfield."

It's a basic tool and very easy to use, too, so it's suitable even for absolute beginners as well as the merely Word-less. Pros Easy process: We could add or remove multiple Word files to Free Word to PDF's queue or select all the Word documents in a folder. Choose an output directory, press "Start Converting," and your work is done. Accurate translations: Free Word to PDF accurately rendered tables or other formatted text, so we didn't have to spend our time cleaning things up. Fast: Even with multiple documents in the queue, Free Word to PDF was super fast. Don't blink or your document will already be converted. Cons Bit clicky to set up: Optional "extra" downloads keep freeware free, and we were able to decline any we didn't want, yet we had to click through an unusually long series of them to get to Free Word to PDF. Bottom Line Free Word to PDF did a fine job converting not just text but also grids, tables, and special features from Word to PDF, and converted files worked well in our usual viewer and editor.

1st March secondary school places, anyone else waiting
Anyone want to anxiously wait with me. I should find out what school our middle child is going to tomorrow. He doesn't want to go to school with the older one typical! so I am hoping for a different school.
What about you? Anyone else anxiously waiting too......
yep,im waiting anxiously too,hope my dd gets into the school she wants,letters go out tomorow but second class post so may not find out til Monday!
I'm waiting anxiously too. I've hardly done any work today. It's going to be a long night. I was told I could log onto the system just after midnight to see what school my DS has been allocated. Hopefully it will be his first choice as I'm now not keen on the 2nd choice and I don't think we'll get the 3rd or 4th. Just over 5 hours to go.
Good luck to everyone who is also waiting
Have you tried logging on now?
Our website says view offer - with a link to accept already?
i only put one school for my daughter and her sister is already there and will be going into y8 in sept
Yes I am waiting too for my eldest her first choice is a gamble that I hope pays off
I'm waiting too, we can log on around 10 tommorrow morning, very nervous as its my first ne to go up to secondary schhol
I am so nervous...if we don't get what we want can we still accept one and appeal at same time..My ex husband wants one school and we want a different one. He wants to appeal if we don't get it, which we wont
Good luck everyone......I remember that stressful day well ;-)
Is it tomorrow?
I thought it was the 1st of April?
omg how exciting how do you find out???
I live in Belfast and i dont think we find out until May 10th xxxx
I was there this ti,e last year! Good luck to everyone, seems ages ages ago now
We find out today, they don't post it online until 5pm though so have to wait all day , very nervous here as we haven't gone for the local school as it's not great, just keeping out fingers crossed for 1st or 2nd preferences.
Found out at one minute past midnight. Really pleased that DS got his first choice.
Good luck to everyone who is still waiting
we should get email before 2pm according to our addmisions site i am not bothered only put the one school down
Just checked my email and she hasnt got the school we wanted - GUTTED!!!
They have sent her to a school 6 miles in the opposite direction.
The one I wanted was a 5 minutes walk from my dads who would be looking after her after school. Instead they have sent her to one that is aout 40 minute drive from my dads???
She is on the talented and gifted for sports and the school we wanted was a sports academy. The school they have sent her to is a performing arts academy
The one they have offered was 4TH choice aswell
I did put all this in the application. I will have to go sown the appeals route now!!

Waiting.....waiting!! Anxious!!!
Someone told me the results would be visible last night at midnight, so I stayed up late but nothing..... Then this morning someone mentioned the results would come up at midday....still nothing.....now I have been told 5pm!! So nervous, I hope my daughter DOESN'T get into her first choice as since we made the selection I've heard nothing but bad reviews, fingers crossed
Anyone else feel like crying because this officialy means they are growing up? (i know i do)
Thankfully, my daughter has been allocated her first choice
Our email was waiting this morning when we looked at 7.20am (was sent at 12.20pm last night).
She tried to play it cool but I could tell she was very happy ~ my baby is growing up fast!
Just waiting for her to come home and tell me what schools her friends are going to now.
My daughter got her 4th choice she is gutted only positive is a few classmates got it too
Well we got our 2nd choice, which we happy with, our 1st choice is a difficult school to get into so not too much of a surprise that he didn't get it. Relieved that's all done with.
Apart from distance same thing has happened we applied for two sports colleges but my daughter has been given an arts and drama school which she absolutely hates doing
We are going on waiting list but not sure about appeal yet
Has anyone had letter yet about what school your child is going to? I know letters were sent out on the 1st March by second class post but i havnt had it yet? I know second class takes a bit longer,just cant wait!
If you didn't get what you wanted don't panic! We didn't get any of our 3 choices but after appealing and failing at the appeals we went on waiting lists for schools further away and eventually after one change we found a school and he has done brilliantly he
Is about to finish GCSE's and Already has two top college's offering him places for A levels (one happy mummy!)
None of this would have been possible if we got our original choice (I'm sure)
What will be will be ;-)
bad mum moment my offer has been sat in my inbox since the 1st of March and Ive only just looked for it, after seeing this thread
ds'2 has been offered his 1st choice and Im pleased as It's a new sports academy, his brother started last sep so Im well pleased, ( he on the other hand would like to stay in primary all his life
no respons received yet
Is 3rd of March and I haven't received yet any respons. Somebody know why?
Hi Athana
This thread is for secondary school admissions.
If you applied on-line you will either receive an email which tells you which school your child has been offered a place at OR you will need to log onto the council website and it will have the details of the offer there.
If you have applied by post you will receive an offer letter in the post and it should have arrived by now.
If you haven't heard anything yet and are waiting to hear about secondary schools then I would phone your LEA.
If you are waiting to hear about reception places (primary or infant schools) then you will have to wait a bit longer as these places are offered in April. Hope that helps.

ABSTRACT: We recently identified a region located in the extramembrane loop 13(L13) of SGLT1 critically involved in phlorizin binding. To investigate the structure-function relationship, large amounts of L13 are needed. Here we describe a high level expression using the RTS 500 in vitro translation system. A gene coding for L13 was subcloned into an in vitro translation vector, pIVEX. Under the control of T7 promoter, L13 could be high level expressed in vitro. The amount of L13 could reach up to 0.5 mg per reaction. In the presence of chaperones, the recombinant L13 accumulates in soluble form. Expression of L13 was confirmed by Western blot and mass spectrometry. Surface plasmon resonance was used to characterize the function of the recombinant L13. Phlorizin was coupled to the sensor surface and used to investigate the binding ability. Preliminary results suggest that L13 indeed interact with phlorizin. Similarly high level expression of the extramembrane loop5 and loop7 separately or linked with each other and with loop13 was also achieved. Our data suggest that sufficient amount of soluble extramembrane loops of SGLT1 for structure-function relation analysis can be obtained by using the RTS 500 system.

Ill. Chicago 50 at Northwestern 44
Illinois-Chicago rallies past Northwestern 50-44By MEGHAN MONTEMURRO, Associated Press Saturday, Dec 1, 2012
EVANSTON, Ill. (AP)—Josh Crittle's go-ahead basket with 53 seconds remaining helped UIC to a 50-44 upset of Northwestern on Saturday.
Crittle finished with a team-high 13 points, and Gary Talton's two free throws with 29 seconds left sealed the win for the Flames (6-1).
The Wildcats committed 16 turnovers and were just 10 of 20 from the free-throw line. Alex Olah missed two free throws with 3:16 remaining, and on the Flames' ensuing possession, Marc Brown converted an easy layup to give UIC a 44-42 lead. The Flames never trailed again.
Joey Miller's jumper tied the game at 35 with 10:23 left, erasing UIC's five-point second-half deficit. Two minutes later, Brown's three-point play gave the Flames a 38-35 lead.
Northwestern was fortunate to be leading at the half, 26-25, thanks to 29 percent first-half shooting by the Flames.
Drew Crawford scored a game-high 18 points for the Wildcats (6-2).

College and Career Readiness Anchor Standards for Reading
Reading CCRA.R.10
Or, "How to Succeed in School, Business, and Life Without Spending a Fortune on Classes."
This tenth standard asks for students who can read a wide variety of texts and understand them, even if the text is particularly dense, tedious, or jargon-filled and even if the reader has no prior experience with the information in the text. In college, students with this skill will be able to navigate the textbook and research assignments in any class; in a career, the ability to read and understand new and difficult things is an inexpensive step toward a promotion, requiring little more than a library card and free time.
Example 1
Going Solo
There have been many musical acts that break up, and sometimes a solo career of one member takes off to greater heights than the ensemble. Justin Timberlake makes it look easy, but a solo performance may not be as simple when students have to take all of this information and apply it to texts on their own. Attempting to understand a text in class under your instructive, angelic guidance and the stench of the kids that just came from gym is easy; conditions are perfect for your students. But put a student at home with their book and a PS3 controller sitting before them and most will go for some RPG fun. Much as you'd like to keep them under your watchful gaze forever, your students must be able to understand different texts independently. You've worked to give them to tools to be successful; now they just need a nudge (sometimes a shove) out of the nest.
Example 2
No Sunlight
Dear Students,
After all the blood, sweat, and tears in class, you are finally ready to venture out on your own, young padawans. To choose complex texts you may want to consider readings that are on par with, or at the same level as, some of the texts you've read in your classes. Reading independently is clear enough, but to prove true proficiency you must be ready to intelligently discuss your ideas regarding more complicated topics or themes in literature. As you read, picture your favorite language arts teacher telling you to "dig deeper" or "provide text evidence." Those phrases that made you groan all year should become your best friends. And we won't even say, "I told you so."
Example 3
Variations on a Theme
Unfortunately, your students are probably not going to leap out of their seats, snatch the baton from your hands and run with it. Some prodding will be necessary. Some suggestions. Graded homework assignments. Threats and bribes. You know, the usual motivators. Start with some text suggestions:
- Types of Literary Texts to Consider
- Novels: Not the Graphic kind (though there are some great graphic companions to classic novels that can help get reluctant readers interested).
- Poetry: Both classical and contemporary. Please, please, please include contemporary poets. If we only expose our students to Shakespeare and Wordsworth, they will continue to regard poetry as that mysterious, unfriendly houseguest that comes around once or twice a year to make life difficult. Show living poets a little love.
- Short Stories: These can be a quicker way to delve into in-depth discussion and are great for practicing their multi-text skills.
- Types of Informational Texts to Consider
- Speeches: These can be as full of figurative meaning as the fictional texts and offer great opportunities to connect with your school's history curriculum.
- Persuasive Texts: Look for editorials or scholarly essays to practice those argumentation skills.
Example 4
Soul Meets Book
Lovely students, it may be a long journey from timid read-alouds in class to involved solo readings, but it's time to get out of the passenger seat and move into the driver's. Kick the teacher out of the car and enjoy the ride.

Energy Node Locator Platform Development: Using Real-Time Monitoring to Conserve EnergyEPA Grant Number: SU835523
Title: Energy Node Locator Platform Development: Using Real-Time Monitoring to Conserve Energy
Investigators: Alahmad, Mahmoud , Nguyen, Lim , Sharif, Hamid
Institution: University of Nebraska at Lincoln
EPA Project Officer: Levinson, Barbara
Project Period: August 15, 2013 through August 14, 2014
Project Amount: $15,000
RFA: P3 Awards: A National Student Design Competition for Sustainability Focusing on People, Prosperity and the Planet (2013) Recipients Lists
Research Category: P3 Challenge Area - Built Environment , P3 Challenge Area - Energy , Pollution Prevention/Sustainable Development , P3 Awards , Sustainability
This project addresses energy consumption and conservation in buildings using real-time monitoring at the outlet/node level. This information is important because 30% of the primary energy in buildings is consumed by miscellaneous electrical loads (MELs). Studies have shown that up to 35% of MEL loads can be saved. In order to achieve these savings, however, monitoring, smart measurements, and tools at the node level are needed to better understand these loads. Current energy monitoring technologies are unable to provide this information in real-time since such technologies require additional hardware (such as wireless sensors) to be implemented at each individual node resulting in solutions that are inefficient, costly, and impractical for supporting a complex system. To address this challenge, a cross-disciplinary team will develop, design, and evaluate an energy node locater platform to remotely locate live energy consuming nodes in the electrical distribution system in buildings using the principles of Spread Spectrum Time Domain Reflectometry (SSTDR). The energy node locater is part of a comprehensive technology termed the Live Energy Finder (LeEF). LeEF is the first integrated hardware/software technology that can remotely monitor and locate every active energy node in the electrical distribution network in real-time without the need for sensors and monitoring devices to be placed at every electrical node.Approach:
Prototype boards with a replica of an electrical distribution system in buildings will be developed, designed and built to demonstrate this project and validate the proposed circuit-level-energy node locater. The board will be equipped with multiple nodes with variable lengths to validate the SSTDR signals and validate the results. The prototype boards will be used to demonstrate the novelty of the energy node locater and its potential to provide fine grain energy consumption at the node level.Expected Results:
Models and simulations for electrical systems in buildings; SSTDR models for adoption in the electrical system for real-time monitoring; Prototype boards to demonstrate the circuit level-energy node locater system; Educational components for the univerity and the community.Supplemental Keywords:
Smart buildings, energy conservation, energy recovery, monitoring resource consumption, sustainable infrastructure design, design for the environment, holistic design;
