Matt. Very much enjoyed your Views column "Switching Sides" on your preparation to teach online.

Based on an offhand comment the other day, I'd love to hear from my wise and worldly (academic) readers to solve a definition question. (Wise and worldly non-academic readers, please indulge a little 'inside baseball' for today.) How does your college or university define a credit hour? Put differently, if you propose a new course, what determines how many credit hours it gets? Does a given number of credits require a given amount of 'seat time'? If it does, what happens with online classes?

A local crew of treestabbers has been around my place fairly regularly for the past week. And that's OK with me.The stabbers in question are children of a neighbor of mine. They"stab" my sugar maples with steel taps connected to plastic tubes which run into covered buckets, collecting sap to make maple syrup. When sugaring season is over, we put a dab of tree paint on each puncture wound. The trees don't seem to mind at all.

There are many difficulties in making black squiggles on a piece of white paper meaningful, but one subset might be in using the tools of specialized literacy to portray those who do not often have the same tools.

Since the root of "academic" is "academy," it seems like we should have our own Academy Awards. Colleges have been around since long before movies; we got here first! As with the Hollywood version, the red carpet pre-show would be the most entertaining part, by far. "Sporting a twelve-year-old sport jacket over an oxford shirt visibly straining between the buttons..." "You don't often see a corduroy jacket worn with such authority..." "Who says cell phone holsters can't be chic?"A few suggestions for categories:

Part of the responsibilities I enjoy most in academic technology is the opportunity to make recommendations for campus technology purchases. Examples include the opportunity to review and evaluate providers of platforms/products/services for: the LMS, lecture capture, curricular content management, student/faculty collaboration tools, curricular media authoring, synchronous collaboration, mobile learning, simulations, and many more.

My kids love the snow. They can't wait to have another snow storm after which they will spend hours snowboarding and just return home for periodic snacks and meals. My feelings are not quite as positive. I love the beauty of newly fallen snow; I hate driving in it, walking in it, and I equally hate the after snow clean up of my walkway and driveway. The more snow, often the greater the beauty and inevitably the greater the hatred.

I sometimes feel unqualified to write this column. I work with clients who teach, but aside from the occasional speaking engagement, I have not been personally involved with academia for over 15 years. So what I have to say may be outmoded. If so, I count on you to set me straight.I have three graduate degrees from two universities: a master's in drama therapy from New York University and both a master's in clinical/school psychology and a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Adelphi. In all three programs, there were two cardinal rules of scholarship:

Automated Touchless Dispenser it says on the paper towel machine in the bathroom near my university office, and I sometimes think, as the mere nearness of me excites the machine's red light and white sheet, that its noli mi tangere message carries over pretty well to what's happening between professors and students these days. Teaching's becoming a germ-free, high-tech, extrusion of data. You can see students trying to acclimate to the chill.

Like many colleges, mine has two main funding models operating side by side. The traditional one is the not-for-profit, credit-bearing side. That's what most people think of when they think of college; it's where the full-time faculty are, what our FTE counts are based on, and so forth.

It might be a bit late, since January is almost over, but it is worth looking back and seeing what I have been part of and helped develop in the past year in CIM.
I returned to Sanski Most to help CIM build more capacity for the organisation. It's been almost 4 years since I first started working here, both in Bosnia and from abroad. The directors of the organisation have given me many job titles, but everything I do, I hope builds the centre's capacity and helps the organisation grow and develop.
I returned to CIM mainly to manage the GlobalGiving storytelling project. This was an ambitious initiative, not without challenges, and hard to complete. We have however managed to complete it in October 2014. The result: 100 stories, one community needs assessment, and a lot of learning. All the stories were added to a massive database that GlobalGiving is compiling which can be found here. I think I can safely say this community research project ended up being a success.
At the beginning of May, someone sent me a message and said: you really need to do something about CIM's twitter account. They have 3 followers: you, me, and one more person. I thought, well, I don't really do twitter. However, I looked into it. What started as, let's get CIM networking a bit on twitter to get more followers to keep up with the automatic updates we send from facebook to there, ended up being a lot more. I started to post more tweets, and quickly saw good results. After countless articles and tutorials on how to use twitter for non-profits, and many webinars on how to succeed at it, CIM now has an active twitter presence. In numbers: 827 followers, 837 tweets, 2 live twitter feeds from week-long projects, and many mentions. The best part about twitter for us, is the visibility we get. Being a small organisation from a small town in a small European country means not many know of us. Twitter helps us post updates about work we do on the ground, and share our results with a much wider public. We are keen to network, find us @CIMPeace
In Bosnia most people use facebook for information sharing and online communications, and the benefits of using it as a non-profit are many, though CIM's website was slightly ignored for a while. From abroad, I found it hard to keep it updated, as I did not take part projects done in Sanski Most, and due to our directors being overworked it means the information I was getting was very basic. The website was not updated from October to May. You have to wonder, when someone looks for information about your organisation, where do they go? The first place to look is your website. Many people write and enquire about volunteering opportunities, and say they looked at our website. So I made it a priority to update the website with fresh information as much as possible, and catch up. The latest post is focusing on our storytelling collection analysis, if you are interested in finding out what Sanski Most is dealing with, check it out on our website.
Another task in CIM for me has been to assist the directors in processing volunteering applications. Dealing with the European Voluntary Service logistics is not an easy task. It is time consuming and it requires completing many forms and signing all sorts of agreements. Then the volunteers will need an induction training, and slowly more training with everything they need to know to support the organisation. Over the summer we recruited 2 new EVS volunteers from Germany and France. More visibility and networking has also helped us get more people interested in volunteering in CIM. Only this autumn, we received 17 applications.
Organisation is key to CIM, and in order to ensure a better handover for new volunteers, access to information needs to be easy. CIM uses dropbox to file all the information staff would need to work with. Past and current projects, grant applications, reports, social media guides, organisational information, and more live in our dropbox account. When you've got hundreds of files, what is the best way to organise it all? We looked at the way we worked with dropbox and asked ourselves: if i were a new person coming to CIM, what would make more sense to research CIM's work and have access to documents? We created a system, a map, and posted a reminder to update the folder with new documents very often so we can keep a good better common record of our work.
I have always gotten very excited about monitoring and evaluation. In Corrymeela I had to design and deliver training in evaluation. I was so much looking forward to training day. I even made a poster with evaluation humour to get the volunteers interested and involved. I wanted to challenge the idea that evaluation is 'the boring part'. For me, evaluating programmes is rewarding when you see the results of your work, and a great learning experience on how projects can be improved. It is a way to see what changes took place in the short term and further inform your practice. I was responsible for managing the monitoring and evaluation of Peace Camp and Peace Week. For Peace Camp, the evaluation methods were more traditional. We had pre and post training questionnaires which were later on analysed and the information gathered helped us reflect on the results and share it through reports with our funders and supporters. Evaluating Peace Week was more informal. I wanted to do it, but the directors said they didn't get many responses in the past. I decided that if traditional methods won't work, then it was time to experiment. Because a lot of participants were going to be young people, I designed colourful and eye-catching feedback forms with adjectives to describe the activities from positive to negative. It did pay off, as most people filled them out. At the beginning people wondered what those forms were, by the end it became a routine. After I gave a presentation on storytelling to about 20 youth, I was happy to go and get some fresh air when one of the young volunteers said: 'are we not evaluating your presentation?'. I guess when people ask for evaluation forms, you can say the experiment worked. Another interesting part about evaluating Peace Week was keeping up with modern technology and trying a new website. Inspired by our storytelling project, we decided to use Storify to do a social media centred evaluation report, especially since we kept a twitter live feed during the programme. Figuring it out was not super easy, but I managed in one day, and I added another skill to my non-traditional evaluation tools. The storify report can be found here.
One thing I missed when I was working for CIM from Northern Ireland was writing grant proposals. It's probably safe to say I really like to write, but applying for funding within CIM can be frustrating. Bosnia is not really a funding priority for most funding bodies, though I always like a challenge. Proposals are also a chance to undertake community research and learn so much more about peacebuilding developments from other initiatives whether undertaken by state institutions or other civil society organisations. Or the lack of. Out of 5 applications, 3 got funded, 2 are pending. There is so much to learn from doing this though. The best outcomes on a professional level are the confidence you get, and the flexibility and opportunity to think outside of the box when things get very challenging. For one particular application for example, I wanted to use some learning I have gotten from working with GlobalGiving in the past two years: write a story of success from the perspective of a beneficiary, in first person. Getting hold of people in the summer, when most are on holiday, was hard though. In the end I did write the story in first person, and used my theoretical knowledge on developing local ownership to explain how CIM has managed to gain the trust and respect of the local population by using international best practice with local cultural approaches.The most difficult proposal I had to write was a new programme we want to develop. At its core is raising awareness of conflict preventions methods. It is a large scale programme where sustainability is key. Training, new skills where they are most needed, workshops and radio shows are all ways to reach out to people and give an account of how communal memory and subjective views filtered by trauma can negatively impact on Bosnia's future development. In order to formulate the need for this, data on the local community had to be gathered. The fact is this data does not really exist. Census figures are dated, from 1991. We don't really know the local demographics. With a lot of team work, and input from local teachers we managed to put together a good analysis, and the proposal is currently under assessment.
Apart from assisting to organise various community events, I organised the opening of an international art exhibition in Sanski Most. Where do we come from? Who are we? Where are we going? The exhibition sought to engage people in a reflection on their history, present and future. How can we build a more peaceful and sustainable future? What are we dealing with? How can we make a difference?
I left my favourite part to the end of the post. Since 2012 I have been managing CIM's online fundrasing efforts on GlobalGiving. In the process I attended many training webinars and read hundreds of pages with tips and ways to succeed at this. Often there was little capacity to use globalgiving more than in a basic way. 2 years later, we have raised close to $20 000, we have submitted over 20 progress reports, written 268 personalised thank you emails, and we are close to reaching the rank of superstar organisation on the website. For the year end campaign I had in mind a goal of raising $2000 for our Peace Embassy project. We managed to raise over $8000 instead. Not a bad outcome I would say. It can get much better though, so in the next year, CIM will put more time and effort into GlobalGiving. The next goal is to fundraise $5000 until July, so we can become a superstar organisation and qualify for a 50% matching on the partner rewards bonus day.
So to sum up:
-social media development (active twitter presence, more posts and followers on facebook) ✓
-increased visibility ✓
-help CIM become an award winning peacebuilding organisation ✓
-data collection, research, and analysis ✓
-new evaluation tools ✓
-achieved my fundraising goals ✓✓✓✓
-secured funding from grants for 3 programmes ✓
and much more :)
Things I'm looking forward to in 2015? Taking our fundraising to the next level, securing funding for our Conflict Prevention programme, designing more projects, developing more promotional materials such as factsheets, inforgraphics and videos, and more progress towards turning CIM into a fully-functioning social enterprise. And more hiking trips. Check out our tourism initiative here.

Sophomore QB Colin Kaepernick played an incredible game for the San Francisco 49′ers in Super Bowl 47. The 49′ers had an amazing comeback but ultimately fell short. Kaepernick says the blame lies with him. "I feel like I made too many mistakes for us to win," Kaepernick said. "Things weren't working in the first half," Kaepernick said. "We just didn't finish our drives. We turned the ball over a couple times. That was the difference in the game." "We stopped ourselves," Kaepernick said. Kaepernick ended the night with 302 yards passing and 62 rushing yards. I think the Niners will be back to the Super Bowl soon. They have all the pieces. This was a learning experience. For Kaepernick to come back from that first half and perform, it says a lot about him as a man and a football player.

What I mean is that for a given amount of work, the agent would get 5x the commission for a 2M house than for a 400K house. I think it would make more sense to pay real estate agents by the hour, for their time, than for them to take a percentage of the entire transaction.
With a transaction fee of, say, 6%, applied to a 2M house (which is split between agents and then again with their respective companies), I don't see $120,000 of value created.Feb 15, 2013. 02:35 AM | 0 Likes |Link to Comment
I agree with this; housing may not be at "the" bottom, but I hardly think it's going to completely tank from here. I don't think buying today is anything like buying in the 2000-2005 bubble.

"Your first problem is that you think a house with a mortgage of $800 a month would only rent for $600 a month. Why would anyone buy a rental property and rent it out for a loss?"
You are comparing apples and oranges. A lower rent payment than a mortgage payment is not a "loss". They may both happen once each month, but they are doing different things. The mortgage is paying off a loan, and is a specific duration, after which point there will be no more mortgage, whereas there will always be rent. You are looking at just the monthly payment instead of the overall investment (which includes the equity being built).Feb 15, 2013. 02:06 AM | 0 Likes |Link to Comment

Petition Tag - television
31. Restore WIN TV Canberra produced and presented local news
WIN TV has downgraded its Canberra local news service by not replacing its news and sports anchors. All Canberra local news bulletins are now produced and broadcast from Wollongong by people who may have no links with our city.
The Tuggeranong Community Council believes this will eventually have an impact on the quality of news coverage in the Canberra region.
The TCC fears it will also lead to the closure of the WIN Newsroom in the National Capital with all news production coming from Wollongong.
32. Don't Axe 'Packed to The Rafters' Yet!
Channel 7 have decided that after 6 seasons, It's time to cancel their hit show 'Packed to the Rafters'.
We, the fans believe that this is a dumb move. We all still love the show and there are plenty of aspects the show hasn't touched upon yet. E.g - Cancer.
33. Save the Adaptation of Lauren Oliver's Delirium Trilogy
We, the undersigned, are disappointed by FOX Television's decision not to order the Delirium series, based on Lauren Oliver's brilliant trilogy, and ask that the network not allow its outstanding potential to go to waste.
The Delirium novel was a New York Times Bestseller that also reached #4 on the NYT Series List following the release of the final book of the trilogy, Requiem. It was named Best Teen Book and Best YA Novel of 2011 (So Far) by Amazon, on top of Best Fiction nominations from The American Library Association and The Young Adult Library Services Association. The books have also found international acclaim, winning the prestigious Le Grand Prix de L'Imaginaire in France and the Buxtehude Bull in Germany, both in 2012.
More than that, the Delirium trilogy is a beautiful story of love, youth, and the human condition that seamlessly infuses action and politics to create an astonishingly original world. It has a devoted fanbase across the social networks, many of whom have organized or taken part in campaigns to "Spread the Deliria". We did so because we were profoundly touched by the books and thrilled at the prospect of a film or television adaptation.
We respectfully disagree with the decision not to further adapt the series at this time and ask that FOX consider an alternative means of adapting the series or sell the rights to someone who would be willing to give the story another shot, rather than allowing this profound tale to sit idle on the shelves indefinitely.
Delirium and its fandom deserve a worthy adaptation.
34. Mandate a disclaimer for counter productive "educational" children's shows
Children under 2 years of age gain no cognitive developmental benefits from television, regardless of content. Help us in providing this critical information that will benefit the estimated 148.8 million parents in the United States.
We strive to accomplish this goal by pushing legislation to mandate a disclaimer delivering these findings to the guardians of our future generation. In response to the American Academy of Pediatrics' recommendation that children under two should be discouraged from watching television at all, and a study showing that only 6% of parents are aware of that recommendation (while 49% of parents think educational videos like Baby Einstein™ are very important in the intellectual development of children), for the betterment of society, we, the undersigned, are actively demanding that the F.C.C. publicize this information at the beginning of aforementioned programming.
One of the most prominent figures in researching early development and television usage, Dr. Dimitri Christakis confidently says, "The more videos they watched, the fewer words they knew. These babies scored about 10% lower on language skills than infants who had not watched these videos."
With the amount of conclusive evidence on the issue, and the given percentage of ignorance, it is not only in our best interest to educate, but neglectful, and arguably abusive, to sit idly by.
35. Bring back Penn & Teller: Bullshit!
Penn & Teller: Bullshit! was a television gem in the true sense of the word.
Not only was it engaging and entertaining, it changed the way that people thought about themselves, their actions, their morals, their fears, and the meaning of it all.
36. Renew Malibu Country for another season
Malibu Country is an amazing show, though it is likely to be cancelled.
Reba and Lily Tomlin are hilarious and we want this show to be on tv next season.
37. Brown About Town
After the crowd funding success of short film / pilot 'What a Gun', Dingo Cross Films seeks to continue the adventures of Bernie Brown and her faithful companion Bourke, the talking dog, in a mini series called 'Brown About Town'.
The show will be comedy / fantasy / drama, with familiar plotlines and characters, but a touch of insanity. You'll never know what Bernie's fantastical mind might conjure up next, anything goes for 'Brown About Town'.
We believe in scope for a six part mini series, with 30 minute episodes, and seek an audience show of support. If you like what we do at Dingo Cross Films, raise your hand for something a little bit different!
To show your further support, please 'like' the Dingo Cross Films page at facebook.com/dingocrossfilms
38. Canine Buffet Cooking Show
Our idea is for the show to encompass the a dog food or treat recipe, a segment for skills and tricks they can teach their dogs for fun or for helpfulness, a segment for informational interviews with people such as State Veterinarians (they can talk about the different dog laws in their states), USDA (tips and rules for travelling in and out of the US), Dog Scouts of America (their mission, their beginning and latest news), Service Animal Organizations, Therapy Dog Organizations, American Kennel Club, Dog Obedience Clubs, Agility Clubs, Flyball Groups, Frisbee Groups, Various Town Officials on the dog laws in their towns (beaches, dog parks, etc) and many more to come.
For many years television shows have been regulated and taken off the air because broadcasting companies have followed the Nielson rating system with only includes the number of people watching a show while it is being broadcasted. Anyone with a DVR or internet streaming knows that these ratings are often off by at least two million viewers or more.
Sign this petition to help bring back the television show The Mob Doctor. This petition will remain open until two months prior to 2013 fall television schedule unless they have announced a renewal by then.
Need a minimum of one million signatures above the end of season rating to have an effect.
Hitter, Hacker, Grifter, Thief, Brains... Don't break up the crew!
41. Bring the focus back on the animals, Animal Planet!
Recently, or perhaps a little longer than that by now, Animal Planet has been taking the focus off of the animals and onto people, using "surprisingly human" as their slogan. In many of these shows, animals have been displaced out of the spot light and become co-stars to humans, which doesn't sound like much of an 'animal planet' to me.
Literally every other channel in existence is about humans, animal planet is suppose to be the one place we can do to, to see something different.
I want the Animal Planet of my childhood back!
42. Abolish the Electoral College
We need to ABLISH THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE! Not because Barack Obama won, but because it has happened 4 other times.
The Electoral College was good back in the day before there was television, radio and social media. People, then, elected others who were more informed to vote for them. This is now out-of-date because of technological advances making almost anyone more informed. This will force canidates to get in front of more rural communities than favoring more urban areas. Everyone else is voted in because of the popular vote; Why not the President!? This makes eveyone's voice count instead of them feeling like it doesn't!
43. Get Michael Barrymore back on TV
Michael Barrymore was and is one of the greatest entertainers of all time.
Times are tough these days and we need someone to put the smiles back on people's faces.
We need Michael Barrymore back on TV where he belongs.
44. Stop Malema Television Coverage
The media hype focussed on Julius Malema is detracting the nation from addressing the real problems in South Africa.
The media, and in particular television, ascribes a huge amount of coverage to the actions of Malema to such a point of exclusion of all other key role players with regard to matters of vital importance to the social balance in South Africa. It is of vital importance that a form of balance is introduced and that other leaders may also be heard.
We quote the words of Defence Minister Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula during an SABC radio interview broadcast:
"You can't just go on and on and on, and be going around mobilising funeral gatherings and agitating people to become ungovernable," she said.
She was reacting to Malema's plans to address members of the SA National Defence Force in Lenasia, Johannesburg on Wednesday.
"What are the consequences? I wish I knew. What I do know is that any responsible citizen in South Africa cannot associate him or herself with a person who wants to agitate and mobilise members of the SANDF against the state because they have concerns," said Mapisa-Nqakula. As quoted in http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/Malema-wants-to-turn-soldiers-on-state-20120912
45. Stop the Blackout of WTHR to Dish Network
Dispatch Broadcasting wants to charge Dish Network a 350%+ price increase to carry their channels! Dish refuses to pass that fee on to their customers so they have declined Dispatch broadcasting's offer and now Dispatch Broadcasting has blacked out WTHR, Indianapolis' NBC affiliate.
Dispatch Broadcasting and WTHR claim that the consumers aren't losing out because we can acquire their signal for free with a digital antenna. This is NOT true as many people, including myself, get every channel but WTHR! They also claim that we can stream it online, and yes we can, but I for one am hearing impaired and there are no captioning options for streaming live TV.
Dispatch Broadcasting is putting greed over providing for their loyal viewers. They may be trying to punish Dish Network, but in the end its only the customers who lose out!
Dispatch Broadcasting runs free over the air channels and wants a huge price increase for a FREE channel! These channels are filled with commercials and advertisement which should MORE than provide enough income for them!
Dunellen, a small town in New Jersey, was incorporated on October 28, 1887.
Nicknamed the "Railroad Town," Dunellen started as a train stop and grew into the square-mile quintessentially American blue-collar town it is today. Sir Thomas Lipton lived here as a teen, boxer Bob Fitzsimmons walked his pet lion downtown, and resident Christian Schepflin brought the sport of lawn bowling back to America.
Currently, Dunellen is home to a world-class table tennis center run by a former U.S. Olympian, an ice hockey rink frequented by Jersey Devils team members, and one of the first dine-in movie theaters in the country. Although it is one of the smallest towns in NJ, it has a respected school system and numerous championship sports programs. Its annual Halloween parade is one of the oldest, continuous parades in the country.
Dunellen is centrally located in Middlesex County on the borders of Union and Somerset counties. It shares a zip code with Green Brook, home of "Jerseylicious" Gatsby Salon. Dunellen is on the New Jersey Transit Raritan Valley Line and has several bus lines going to NYC.
How did Dunellen get its name? There are several stories. The most accepted is that it was named after Ellen Betts, a family friend of John Taylor Johnston, owner of the Jersey Central Railroad. It is the only town in the United States with this name.
Dunellen is turning 125 on October 28, 2012.
47. Remove Pakistan's name from ABC show, Last Resort
The "Last Resort" show is about the renegade crew of a United States Navy Ohio-class ballistic missile submarine, the fictional USS Colorado (SSBN-753), that defies an order to launch nuclear missiles towards Pakistan, a decision that cost the previous commanding officer his job when he refused to follow similar orders without an explanation or confirmation.
When his replacement also questions the same orders, the vessel is fired upon without warning and the crew are left for dead. Realizing that they have been declared enemies of their own country, they set up camp on the fictional island of Sainte Marina, and declare themselves a sovereign nation with nuclear capability.
At the same time, the crew must find a way to prove their innocence and find out who set them up so that they can return home to America.
If you are a fan of Victorious and her cast of characters then sign this an pass it around show Dan Warp @DanWarp and Nickelodeon TV @NickelodeonTV that this show has fans and we want Victorious back for a 4 season!
49. Bring back GCB
We believe that GCB is a show that we want to see back on ABC-tv.
It was an enjoyable show.
50. Nate and Blair Scene(s) for GG final season
GOSSIP GIRL was adapted from the NYTBS series of the same title. One of the main story-lines of the book series was the relationships between Blair Waldorf, Nate Archibald and Serena van der Woodsen. However, as many have noticed, the television series shifted its focus to other relationships and pushed the main relationships out of focus.
Nate and Blair's relationship was treated poorly and adapted incorrectly. Each meaningful scene fans of the book series expected to see come to life was tossed aside for a relationship between two characters who hardly spoke to one another in the original series. Are we saying that we want to see them together, romantically, again? No. Well, the Nate/Blair fans would enjoy that, however, that is not where the focus is on the show currently.
Our goal is to get back the meaning of their relationship. You don't forget your first love. Your sweet love. One of your best friends. We want communication between the two that doesn't end in some sort of flat joke. We, out of all the fans, deserve this - seeing as a majority of us waited for the adaption in anticipation. Whether it's in the form of a flashback, or a sweet and serious conversation, we deserve to be tossed a bone in the shows final season.
The show started with the triangle between Blair/Nate/Serena - Nate/Serena still communicate frequently, and there is no reason for Blair and Nate not to talk.
Whether you were a fan of their relationship on the show, in the books or a fan of their friendship, please do consider signing this petition and help us reach out for one final scene.
This petition is not intended to undermine the relationships between Chuck/Blair, Dan/Blair, or any of the current ships, so please take negativity elsewhere.
Here are various ways the Nate/Blair shippers have been "mistreated" (note: it is just a television show, and while we have the novels we would highly appreciate one or two final, lovely and positive scenes between the two): http://chacecrawfords.tumblr.com/post/18533077173/im-starting-a-list-of-reasons-nair-fans-should-be
Missing is a show about Becca Winstone who used to be a trained CIA agent. Now her son, who is 18, goes missing and Becca tries to find him. That means that she will have to revisit her past connecting with old friends. And enemies.
It is a great show to watch because:
-it shows how much your family will do for you;
-it takes place in different countries;
-it is watched by over 7 million people;
-inspires people to become apart of the CIA.
Cybersix animated series was produced in 1999 and aired on a few major television stations, such as Teletoon (Canada), Fox Kids (America), Kids Station (Japan), and Telefe (Argentina).
The show was based off the comics "Cybersix"; the show would give a realtime visual of the loved comic. Sadly, the show was not as popular as expected, only producing one season and within that season only thirteen episodes. The show was canceled after it's final epesode and ignored by it's producers for lack of viewers.
We hope that with enough support, we can send a request to the major stations, mainly Teletoon and request another season. However, we need the support of all the Cybersix fans around the world for this request to have any meaning.
Teletoon cannot ignore it's viewers, if they request a show again, we have high hopes they would at least consider.
53. Renew Southland for a fifth season
Head back to the streets of Los Angeles for the new, explosive season of Southland, the critically acclaimed drama series from Warner Bros. Television and Emmy-winning producer John Wells (ER, The West Wing). Chronicling the lives of LAPD officers and detectives like no other series on television, this powerful, intensely emotional drama stars Michael Cudlitz, Shawn Hatosy, Regina King and Ben McKenzie, along with special guest star Lucy Liu.
Since premiering in 2009, Southland has redefined the police drama with its raw, authentic look at the lives and work of Los Angeles detectives and beat cops. The show centers on four main characters: Officer John Cooper (Cudlitz), a seasoned cop who will have to prove himself again after recovering from surgery; Officer Ben Sherman (McKenzie), who still has much to learn after recently completing his training rotation; Detective Lydia Adams (King), whose unending caseload hits closer to home; and Sammy Bryant (Hatosy), a former detective who decided to go back to being a uniform cop after the traumatic death of his partner.
Shot on location in the streets and neighborhoods of Los Angeles, Southland captures a realistic, natural environment where similar situations can and often do occur in real life. The series was created by Emmy winner Ann Biderman (NYPD Blue, Public Enemies) and is executive-produced by Emmy winners Christopher Chulack (ER, Third Watch) and John Wells. Chulack is also a primary director of the series, while Jonathan Lisco (The District) serves as executive producer and Andrew Stearn (Shameless, The West Wing) is co-executive producer.
54. Bring Blue Mountain State back to TV
Blue Mountain State, was an amazing television show that ran from January 11th 2010, until it's cancelation in February of 2012. BMS was a football based sitcom that aired on the Spike Television Network.
It was easily the best looking show, was amazingly written, and arguably the greatest sitcom on TV today. Whoever watched the show immediately fell in love with it.
The show was adored by fans all over The United States and Canada. The show became more and more popular reaching a audience of well over 800,000.
Star Trek and its many spinoffs provide the greatest science-fiction television has ever known. It's time for another show!!!
56. Keep Barefoot Rugby League Show on air with Maling Productions
The Barefoot Rugby League Show has been produced by an Indigenous production company Maling Productions. For the last four years the Panel program profiles Rugby League from The NRL NSW Cup, Intrust Super Cup QLD & Grassroots rugby league. Including visits to remote Aboriginal Communities.
Hosted by Indigenous staff members, Brad Cooke & David Peachey with feature stories covered by Paula Maling.
This program has been the most popular program and highest rating program on The National Indigenous Television service for the past four years.
57. WJJG is For Smart Shows Only
Not only did 2011 see the sudden death of Joe Gentile, but the removal of intelligent programming and music from weekdays (and even parts of the weekend).
It is totally unfair to get rid of Angry White Male, Job Talk, John DiVita's Morning Show, and other programming that made WJJG an amazing radio station.
Mancow should not be on at all. He is incoherent and his show does not belong on a community radio station like WJJG. Michael Savage should be aired in two hours or removed too, and sent back to WIND.
If you believe that WJJG should continue with original programming and music during weekdays, please sign this petition. This is an outrage and we need to keep whatever we have left of special radio stations like WJJG.
We can no longer support the dumbing down agenda of America. This show exploits not only the Italian youth in America, but alcoholic debauchery, unsafe sex, drug usage, domestic violence and profanity of all kinds. There are no morals or ethics.
Big egos, lack of intelligence, and shallow pursuits are not what this generation or the younger generations should be looking up to or aspiring to be.
Enough is enough of allowing this trash to continue while the Jersey Shore makes millions of dollars, our economy is falling.
Hard working Americans are losing their homes, children are starving, politicians corrupt. We must turn our attentions to more constructive pursuits & causes.
59. Bring Kim Possible Back On Air!
Kim Possible was Disney's longest running show. After season 4, it was cancelled.
We need you to sign this petition to urge Disney into producing another season. Come on, Kim Possible fans!
Anything is POSSIBLE!
60. Bringing Back NBC's Las Vegas
Las Vegas was canceled in 2008 due to the writers' strike. Season 5 ended with a cliff hanger that has left fans wondering what has happened.
The show ended with about 8 million viewers (which is what some shows start with now).

Board member scheduled for July court appearance
By: Jenifer Gee Journal Staff Writer
Water agency has no comment on arrest policy
A Placer County Water Agency director charged with domestic violence is set to appear in court at the end of the month. Lowell Martin Jarvis, who represents Auburn-area residents on the water agency's board, is scheduled for an appearance on Placer County Superior Court July 29 after he was arrested July 8 on a charge of willful infliction of corporal injury to a spouse, former spouse or cohabitant. Placer County Sheriff's deputies arrested Jarvis after they responded to a 911-call to the home. Jarvis allegedly twisted the victim's arm and left visible injuries, according to initial official reports. The July 8 incident was not the first time Placer Sheriff's authorities have responded to Jarvis' home on the 800 block of Lozanos Road in Newcastle. In July 2007, deputies were called for a verbal dispute that was resolved without a report, according to records from the Placer County Sheriff's Office. In October 2006, there was a 911 call for medical aid with a minor involved. In July 2005, an incomplete 911 call was made from the home. Jarvis was elected to the water agency board in November 1996. Board members serve four-year terms. The water agency services Placer County's approximate 350,000 residents and covers the entire geographical area of the county, according to David Brenninger, water agency general manager. For 2009, the agency reported a $82, 441,348 budget. In response to e-mailed questions from the Journal regarding the agency's policy if a board member is arrested, Brenninger replied "no comment." Jarvis will appear in court July 29 in Dept. 31 at the Bill Santucci Justice Center in Roseville. The Journal's Jenifer Gee can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com or post a comment.

Sports Arena
Playing With a Fuld Deck
Tampa Bay's new hero has made it easy to forget Manny Ramirez.
TAMPA -- Baseball is our most statistically analyzed sport. But there are no stats to identify the player who captured the hearts of his local fans most quickly. If there were, Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Sam "The Man" Fuld might have his first Major League record.
Record or no, Fuld is a story by Frank Capra, with music by Burt Bacharach. He entered this season at age 29 with only 131 major league at bats and one home run. He was only hitting his weight because he doesn't weigh very much. At this relatively late baseball age, and with few successful days in the bigs, he doubtless felt fortunate to be the 25th player on the Rays 25-man Opening Day roster, and may well have wondered if it might be time to explore the possibilities of a career in car sales. At best he could look forward to a season of pinch-running and giving regular Rays outfielders the odd day off.
But just a few games into the season, fate intervened. Manny "Being Manny" Ramirez got cross-wise to MLB's drug policy again and chose to retire rather than endure 100 games on the porch. (Manny, with a total of one hit as a Ray, may be the second player, along with Jose Canseco, to wear a Rays hat when being inducted into the Pharmaceutical Hall of Fame.) Manny's departure obliged Rays manager Joe Maddon to play line-up musical chairs, which led to our Sam being installed as a regular in the outfield, where's he's played all three positions with distinction. He's made the best of a chance a guy with four years of college ball and more than 600 games in the minor leagues had no idea he would get.
Since being installed in Maddon's lineup, all Fuld has done is hit .368 (through Tuesday, when a mortal oh-for-four day dropped him from .396), lead the AL in stolen bases, and make so many spectacular catches in the outfield that he owns the 11 o-clock highlight reel. (My sources inform me that ESPN executives are considering changing the name of "Baseball Tonight" to "The Sam Fuld Show.")
The Durham, New Hampshire native has had two four-hit nights, including four extra-base hits in Fenway one magical evening before the usual packed house there, including about 30 family and friends down for the event. He even wrapped one around the Pesky Pole in Fenway for his only home run of the year. "The best I've ever seen" is a common enough and fair description of the full-out daylight robbery catch Sam made of Juan Pierre of the White Sox's bases-loaded drive in Whatever-the-Corporation Park in Chicago.
These Fuld pyrotechnics, along with some other players coming to life, have helped the Rays turn around a season that began 0-6 on the strength of an offense so limp it could be used as the before in a Viagra ad. The post-Manny, Sam Fuld Rays have won eight of their last 11 and are playing some of the most interesting baseball in the Northern Hemisphere. Rays fans are loving it, and they're loving Sam.
At season-end Fuld may not be leading the Rays, let alone the AL, in batting average. But he will almost certainly be leading MLB in dry cleaning bills. In his all-out style of play, he's forever sliding, whether it's making circus catches in the outfield, sliding into bases, or sliding back into bases behind pick-off throws. By the third inning he usually looks like he's been in a train wreck. If anything slows him down during the season it might be that he's all over rug burns from sliding catches on the Trop's awful playing surface.
Fuld was such a big baby, 10 pounds at birth, his parents called him "Sumo Sam." But he grew to more resemble a jockey than a nose guard. The Rays program lists him at 5-10 and 180 pounds. But if Fuld weighs 180 it would have to be carrying all of his bats plus the donut. He's compact and fast. He'll never hit 25 home runs in a season. But he's wiry strong, and his level, line-drive swing will produce plenty of gappers for doubles and triples. He's a natural lead-off hitter. He's fast, knows the strike zone, has good pitch recognition, and outstanding bat control.
In the outfield Fuld is sure-handed, covers a lot of ground, is not afraid to leave his feet, has a strong, accurate throwing arm and a quick release. On the bases he's a one-man disruption platoon, forcing opposing pitchers and infielders to pay attention to him. In short, he's just the man to help the Rays stay competitive, and help Rays fans get over the loss of Carl Crawford.
So if Sam Fuld is this good, how come he's just showing up now? Where has be been for 29 years? And what were the Cubs thinking when they threw Fuld into a multi-player deal that sent Rays starter Matt Garza to Chicago?
Probably no one knows the answers to these questions, least of all pole-axed Cubs officials watching Fuld turn in one web-gem after another on baseball wrap-up shows. Perhaps Fuld is just a late bloomer. More sinisterly, perhaps decision makers where Fuld has played before Tampa Bay didn't move him along or pencil him into lineup cards because they were prejudiced against players of Fuld's stature. But those who don't believe guys of Fuld's size can be solid major league players should be sentenced to sit in the corner under the dunce hat and read Joe Morgan's statistics over and over.
It's great fun now for Fuld and for his many new admirers. No one knows if the pixie dust will be around all season. He won't take anyone or any team by surprise the second time through the league. Pardon my passive voice, but adjustments will be made. But Fuld doesn't have a big swing full of holes. And the Stanford economics graduate is as smart as he is talented. So he should be able to adjust to the adjustments. Unless he pulls, pops, or breaks something his defense shouldn't suffer. And he brings speed to the park every night.
Dennis Quaid is too old for the role now (not to mention too big). But if Sam keeps this up, the folks who made The Rookie may want to consider getting back to work. Sam Fuld's story is as inspiring as that of Jimmy Morris, and could justify its own space on the big screen. I'll be there when this one opens, that is if there isn't a Rays game on that night.

This is bothering me, so help.
So, I flipped through Spectrum 13 (or maybe 12) but thats not the point. While
flipping through the pages I found two pics by someone for the Cry Havoc magazine
by Rackham games. For the life of me I cannot remember the artists name. One
pic was of werewolves in some armor. The other one was of Goblins in samurai
style armor. If anybody can tell me the artist's name... that'd be cool.

Maybe folks were surprised when Justin Timberlake hosted "Saturday Night Live" in 2003 and slayed the crowd alongside Jimmy Fallon during "The Barry Gibb Talk Show." Perhaps, though, you missed that skit and only caught Timberlake's digital short a few years later, when he and Andy Samberg busted out a Christmas comedy classic called "Di– in a Box." But by the time JT reunited with Samberg for "Motherlover" in 2009, the secret was out: The dude knows how to make people laugh.
That's why Cameron Diaz knew Timberlake was the perfect pick to star in "Bad Teacher," their upcoming foul-mouthed comedy.
"I don't think Justin Timberlake is a hidden treasure of comedy any longer," she told MTV News when we caught up with her at CinemaCon this week. "I think he burst that bubble a long time ago on 'SNL.' Everybody knows he's got the chops. We all felt, and why he was cast, was he was the best person for the job. He's so wonderful in it."
Diaz plays the titular dreadful educator, a woman who's more concerned with getting her drink on after school than shaping minds during it. All that changes, however, when she decides to try out her gold-digging skills and sets her sights on a substitute teacher played by Timberlake. The sub seems like a super sweet guy, but, as Diaz let us know, he's not all he's cracked up to be.
"He gives us a character that you have not seen yet before — not just him, but pretty much anyone," she said. "It's just a very interesting character and a lot of fun to watch. By the end of it, you're like, 'What is up with that dude?' It's hilarious."
Check out everything we've got on "Bad Teacher."

Q:Hello, do the growing tips of Cosmos Sonata need to be pinched out in the early stage of growth to make the plants bushy? Many thanks.Asked on 2/5/2015 by Felix from Sussex
1 answer
They do not need to be pinched out, but if you do it will help create bushier plants.Answered on 15/5/2015 by Helen from crocus
Q:I've got some shallow beds in full sun at the front of my house... Will the fact that these are shallow beds be a problem for cosmos? And assuming not how far apart do they need to be planted so I can work out how many I need?Asked on 25/4/2015 by FuzzyHQ from Dorset
1 answer
Provided there is a good depth of soil these plants should thrive. I am not sure how wide your border is, but these plants have an eventual spread of around 30cm, so if it is narrower than that they may spill out over the path/lawn. As for planting distances, for a really strong display, I would plant them at 15cm intervals.Answered on 15/5/2015 by Helen from crocus
I don't have a greenhouse but want a border of Cosmos - can these be planted straight away on delivery once the risk of frost has gone?
Also, I would like a relatively tall variety of cosmos, how tall does this variety get and is there a taller variety available at Crocus?
Thank you in advanceAsked on 16/4/2015 by H from Beckenham

A:Ideally these should be potted up and grown on, but if you can protect them from slugs and snails, then you could plant them out after the frosts have passed. This one will grow to 60cm (we have a diagram near the top of the page) and we do have a couple of taller ones - just click on the following links to go straight to them

Q:I want to give pots of cosmos as presents. please can you tell me how many of the plugs should I put in a 2litre pot. thank you.Asked on 14/4/2014 by sandra from north wales
1 answer
Eventually these plants grow to 60cm high by 30cm wide, so you could get away with just one per pot, however if you want the pot to look nice and full reasonably quickly, then I would opt for 3 or even 5 plugs in each 2-litre pot.Answered on 16/4/2014 by helen from crocus
Q:Are the Sonata Hot Pink Mixed a dwarf variety, and if so, how tall do they grow (in inches please!!)Asked on 8/3/2014 by happy gardener from Havant, Hampshire
1 answer
A:Hello there
This is a smaller form of Cosmos growing to approx 2ft tall.
Hope this helpsAnswered on 10/3/2014 by Anonymous from Crocus
Q:1) Given the current weather conditions and the fact that I only have a cold frame, would the cosmos plugs be OK in a cold frame for a while?
2) Please can you tell me the approximate height they grow to. Are they more suitable as 'back of border' plants?
Thank you.Asked on 31/3/2013 by Ice skater from Southampton
1 answer
These plants will grow to around 60cm tall, and as they are tender they do need to be grown in frost-free conditions. If your coldframe is in a warm, sheltered position, then they should be fine in there until the temperatures improve.Answered on 2/4/2013 by Helen from Crocus
Q:My greenhouse is not heated. Can I grow the cosmos plugs on in an unheated greenhouse?Asked on 31/3/2013 by deeg from Leatherhead, Surrey
1 answer
It really depends on how cold the temperatures are outside as these plants are tender. Very shortly, the temperatures should be starting to rise, so I suspect they should be fine in an unheated greenhouse, but they may need to be temporarily moved somewhere a little warmer if it gets really cold.Answered on 2/4/2013 by Helen from Crocus
Q:How hot of temperature can a cosmos Sonata mix takeoverAsked on 17/3/2013 by Geeg from menifee ca 92584
1 answer
I'm afraid I do not have a maximum temperature for this plant, but as it is a tender plant that needs warmth to grow, I imagine it will tolerate quite high temperatures.Answered on 18/3/2013 by Helen from Crocus
June Week 1
If you do nothing else...water new plants. Make sure new additions do not suffer during dry spells. Plant up summer containers bedding once the threat of frosts has passed. Feed container plants about six weeks after planting. If it's a nice day...trim heRead full article
Plant up summer containers
After the last frost date, plant up containers with tender flowering bedding and reliable foliage plants. Line terracotta pots with polythene, taking care not to cover the planting holes, to reduce water loss through the porous sides of the pot.Read full article

Posh bedding

Who said India's rich don't do their bit for society?
Actually, we did.

What can CEOs learn from Mother Teresa, a nun who spent her life helping the sick and the poorest of the poor in the slums of Kolkata? Ruma Bose, who co-authored a new book on the Catholic nun, says the answer is lots.
And no, hers is not a bid to persuade businessmen to boost their philanthropic efforts – Bill Gates and Warren Buffett already took care of that.
Instead, "Mother Teresa, CEO: Unexpected Principles for Practical Leadership," which Ms. Bose wrote with businessman Lou Faust, looks at the nun's achievements through a corporate lens, describing her as a leader who saw her enterprise grow from "start-up to multinational." Read More »
From Robert Frank on the WSJ's The Wealth Report blog:
There seems to be an unwritten rule among billionaires: don't criticize each other's lifestyle.
Bill Gates and Warren Buffett, for instance, spend a lot of time pressing other billionaires to give away more money and do more for society. But they have never ridiculed Paul Allen's megayachts and private jets, or Larry Ellison's real-estate sprees.
Perhaps that is why Indian billionaire Ratan Tata has sparked controversy by weighing in on the vertical palace owned by fellow Indian billionaire Mukesh Ambani, shown at left.
In an interview in The Sunday Times of London, Tata was quoted as saying that the 27-storey home reportedly costing up to $1 billion, may have been ill-considered in a country of such widespread poverty. Read More »
Could India's vast amount of "black" or untaxed money be used for social good?
That was one of the ideas that came up for discussion at a press conference in New Delhi on Thursday night, where the world's second and third richest men, Bill Gates and Warren Buffett, talked about philanthropy. Mr. Buffett thought it was not a bad idea to use money unaccounted for to help society. He said that a child who gets a vaccine that can save his or her life, won't question the source of the money that paid for the vaccine. "You'll want to give away unofficial money," said Azim Premji, an Indian billionaire and chairman of Wipro Ltd. Read More »
Bill Gates, appearing at a press conference in New Delhi on Thursday with India's minister of science and technology, insisted he uses the same skills in philanthropy that he did building Microsoft into one of the world's most successful companies.
"Giving money and making money have a lot of similarities," he said, in answer to a question from the media. "In my work at Microsoft, my job was hiring talented engineers to solve tough problems that look unsolvable and backing their work for five to 10 years and understanding what works and what doesn't work."

Two of the richest men on Earth want to convince India's rich to share their wealth with society.
Microsoft Corp. founder Bill Gates, and legendary investor and Berkshire Hathaway Inc.'s Chief Executive Warren Buffett, will meet with Indian business leaders in New Delhi on Thursday to discuss philanthropy.

It's suddenly raining charity in corporate India.
After technology czar Azim Premji's almost two-billion dollar gift to his education-focused trust last week, some people outside the billionaires' club are also answering the call of philanthropy.

Eau De Parfum Spray 50ml

Saving $30.31 (62%)
Elizabeth Arden,
Pretty Hot (Eau De Parfum Spray 50ml )
Elizabeth Arden launched Pretty Hot in January 2011 as a sequel to the original Pretty perfume from 2009. Pretty Hot, as its predecessor, is signed by Givaudan perfumer Claude Dir, who was utterly inspired by Belle de Nuit, a flower that blooms and develops in hot summer nights under the moonlight. Its fiery petals and captivating aroma are embodied in this mystical, intense, hot and seductive fragrance. Pretty Hot is hypnotic, sexy and feminine just like tropical flowers, juicy red fruits and exotic spices.
The composition opens with red currant, fresh mandarin, blood orange, red apple and freesia. Queen of the night dominates the perfume's heart, followed by peony, pimento blossom and Petalia and Georgywood (cedar and amber) molecules. Long-lasting power and intensity is provided by the base made of amber, white patchouli, tonka bean, sandalwood and musky Cosmone molecule.

AF Harvey Award Winner – Hugh GriffithsDecember 20, 2012
SciTech and the IET are proud to announce the most recent winner of the AF Harvey Engineering Research Award, Hugh Griffiths of University College London. Professor Griffiths was chosen by the IET out of a number of high caliber candidates from across the world for this award due to his outstanding contributions to radar research and his continuing work to make major improvements in bistatic radar and its applications.
You can read the press release from the IET here.
While Hugh Griffiths is very well known in the international radar arena for his work, SciTech has directly benefited from his expertise from our first days in publishing. Hugh has been a critical advisor as we built our line of radar references and textbooks, a master reviewer, and is currently working on developing the 3rd Edition of our bestselling book, Introduction to Airborne Radar. His willingness to help and to be a leader in the radar community has always been evident to us and we couldn't be more thankful.
Our sincerest congratulations, Hugh!
