BYU Postgame Presser: Players
De'Veon, first tell us, how are you feeling?
"I'm feeling good. You know, I've got a boot on right now for precautionary reasons. You know…got a little banged up, but it's not a big deal. Just trying to get healthier for next week."
De'Veon, tell me what was going through your mind when you had that 60-yard run for a touchdown and were just going through everybody.
"To be honest, I thought I was down for a second but- then I put my hand down in the ground- but once I got to the second level I knew for a fact I was not letting #15 tackle me, so that kind of made me want to score even more."
Jake, seemed like the most comfortable you've been in the passing game. How much of that is opening up the playbook a little bit and just finally getting comfortable?
"I think it all comes down to really just being comfortable with the calls that Coach has coming in, and having good communication with him, and saying, 'No, I'd rather go with a different play.' Just feeling more comfortable with that, and then I think it also goes to the offensive line. They allow you to be comfortable back there and that's always- it's really impressive."
Jake, can you talk about the one-handed grab Amara made and how that came about, and also what it did in terms of energizing the team?
"Yeah, that was a great play by him. He had man coverage; I figured I'd give him a shot and the ball got a little more outside than I wanted it to but he made a great play, and like you said, I think that jumpstarted guys. It was a third-down conversion, I believe, and whenever you can convert third downs it's always good for the offense."

BYU Postgame Presser: Jim Harbaugh
The secondary and the front seven really seemed to work in concert defending the pass. Can you just talk about the job they both did?
"Yeah, heck of a job. Great to be a part of a shutout. Defensive staff, DJ Durkin and the guys did a great job; players, everybody. When you only give up 105 yards, that's…I don't know if I've ever been a part of one of those. That's outstanding in so many areas.
"Picked up two third-down conversions early in the game and the rest of the game it was like 2-of-12, maybe. Thought we did an excellent job on third down. In all aspects, a great defensive ballgame."
Could you talk about Jake's [Rudock] day, and particularly his choice to throw the ball away or run if he didn't see what he liked?
"Yeah. Hey, Mark! Yeah, good to see you."
[Ed. (Adam): Mark didn't ask the question. I've never seen Mark before.]
"Yeah, really good. I just glanced at the sheet after the game and he was 14- or 15-of-25, something in that area, and there must have been four or five throwaways. I thought he was having fun. I thought he was, you know, playing the game, letting it rip, and got two big scores scrambling, running the football. Great block by Jehu Chesson on the second touchdown. I can't wait to watch that one on tape. Lead some good, consistent drives even in the second half. Thought the offense did a heck of a job controlling possession of the football; had an 11-play drive and a 12-play drive and scored on the first five possessions. Came out strong.
"Saw some really creative plays. Tim Drevno and Jedd Fisch, you know, really diagrammed some good plays this week and the fellas did a nice job executing them, so a lot of good things. Good team victory."
Going back to the defense, obviously your guys were consistent from start to finish. What about the 11 punts you had on 12 possessions and seven three-and-outs?
"Yeah, the three and outs, I'm glad you brought that up. We scored the first five times we had the ball offensively, and four of those- four times the defense had three-and-out possessions and then to start the second half it was one right after the other, three and outs. It was very good. Good football team both sides of the ball, so it was good. And we go back to work now. Start conference play this week and we'll attack it the same way. Big game this week."
I know you don't like to talk about yourself much but I'm interested, is the feeling of winning- today would be a day I'd guess that captures why you wanted to come back and coach this team. Is the feeling of winning in an atmosphere like this right now and what you're going through different than the NFL, and do you watch NFL games anymore? Do you miss anything about it?
"Lot of questions there."
[After THE JUMP: We had hamburgers it was crazy]
Wednesday Presser 9-23-15: Tyrone Wheatley
Evaluate your group after three games.
"Evaluate my group after three games? Getting better, growing, competing, so right there is my three words I would use. Always room for growth, room to get better. Still just trying to solidify the little mistakes, clean the little things up. Just getting better."
Is it the week of practice that determines who's getting the carries or the flow of the game or what is it?
"It's a little bit of both. Week of practice, flow of the game- you never want to go in with concrete [ideas]. Just the week of practice is the overall deciding factor and then the flow of the game. The flow of the game, as the game is going, you kind of make adjustments. You've got to be able to make adjustments. Gotta make adjustments."
Is that what happened on Saturday? I mean, De'Veon was having some trouble and so you said-
"No, De'Veon wasn't having trouble. It was just the type of defense that they were playing, what they were doing, called for a little different runner."
"Yeah, style-wise. De'Veon wasn't having much trouble at all. He was getting the tough yards. You know, he was banging it in there, running tough, running hard, yards after contact- that man gets a lot of yards after contact. He's doing a great job in that regard. Just needed someone that could slip and slide a little bit and that was it. Just a different style."
When you talk about cleaning the little things up, what are some of those little things?
"Wouldn't you like to know."
/smiles (I think)
[After THE JUMP: Things went well]
Wednesday Presser 9-23-15: Mike Zordich
Just kind of talk about how your guys are coming along a little bit through three games.
"Yeah, the guys are working hard. You know, we just keep pressing them every week in practice, keep telling them to challenge themselves every day and hopefully it translates on the weekends. They're working hard."
Jourdan was saying on Monday that he thinks the secondary could be the best in the country. Is that sort of an attitude that you promote?
"Well, that's what we want them to think and, you know, certainly the work and what they produce has to match that. But we absolutely want that attitude from those guys. It helps. Certainly their position requires that kind of attitude. They've got to have a short memory at that position and put things to the side and go play the next play. So, it's all about attitude, it's all about challenging yourself every day and just trying to get better and better and win every play."
Talk a little about the challenge they're going to get this weekend.
"A big, big challenge. I mean, those guys [are] 6'6", 6'5", 6'3". Really big receivers, good athletes, decent speed; I mean, they've got it all, and they roll in those guys. They've got four or five really good receivers that they're rolling in every down, so they're going to be fresh. We've got a big challenge ahead of us.
"Just physically, when you line Jourdan Lewis up against a 6'6" guy, as scrappy as Jourdan is, that's a tough matchup. But that's how we're going to play it. They've got to fight."
When a guy makes a couple big plays like Channing did last week, what does that do for his confidence and how he's able to play?
"You know, hopefully. When you do things right you get confidence, and he's been doing things right. Throughout camp, Channing has probably had the best camp out of all the guys. He's just worked hard. He had one bad day, had one bad scrimmage in the summer there. Other than that he's been playing really hard and really well. I think he realizes, and I'm hoping that all of them realize, that you don't arrive. You always have to get better, because somebody's chasing you."

Monday Presser 9-21-15: Players
Four or five of your nine tackles came on Saturday. Was that a game that things just kind of clicked for you? Was it where you were just able to take advantage of an opportunity? How do you view it?
James Ross: "I just view it like basically all the guys out there, we do our best to do what we can on the field at any given time. I just made those plays, but a lot of guys, we're just running to the ball. Anybody can make a play at any given moment, you know; JD [Jourdan Lewis] or corners, safeties, we all run to the ball at the same time so there's going to be a lot of assisted tackles."
How many plays does it take to get the hat? [ED. (Adam)- It says 'Ball Hawk'; Lewis was wearing a 'Ball Hawk' track jacket]
JR: "How many plays? This was in practice, in camp. Got a couple of forced fumbles."
Jourdan, what was this week like for you, obviously dealing with a concussion and whether you were going to play? Also, four pass breakups was obviously a career best. What did you do and see in that game that helped you out?
Jourdan Lewis: "Just using my technique. Trying to get back as fast as possible from that concussion. Just excited to be out there, obviously."
Jourdan, obviously a bigger challenge from the BYU receivers, a little bit bigger. What do you see from them on film, and when you're attacking a larger group of receivers like that when you're not as big how much do you have to rely on your technique and what do you have to do?
JL: "We haven't seen much film on BYU yet. We're actually going to watch film today, so I actually haven't seen them.
"Commenting on the larger receiver thing, it really doesn't matter to me. Small receiver, large receiver, it's all the same. Just using my technique."
[More, including Ben Braden, after THE JUMP]
Monday Presser 9-21-15: Jim Harbaugh
News bullets and other items:
- Harbaugh made it abundantly clear that there's no QB controversy. He said Rudock's the best QB on the team, and "not by a small margin."
- Kyle Kalis graded out as the best offensive lineman on Saturday.
- Harbaugh was very impressed with Channing Stribling, saying no one in the secondary has shown more improvement.
- Chesson was the offensive and special teams player of the game, and Lewis was the defensive player of the game.
- Kerridge could possibly play Saturday. He's "working through something."
"Whaddaya got? I'm ready to go! I'm excited about my team!"
Can you talk about what you've seen out of BYU? What impresses you most about their offense?
"Well, good receivers. Big receivers. Good quarterback. Big, physical team on both sides of the ball. Very athletic. They play extremely hard.
"I think this will be a great test for our team. Very excited about the competition this week and what's in store. It'll be a great gauge for where our team is at right now."
Now that you've had a chance to look at the film, what did Ty Isaac do that got the running game going versus maybe somebody else, and how- I kind of asked you about this a little big Saturday- but how big is it that you can have different guys that you can throw in there if one guy is not playing well and one guy is playing well?
"Well, I wouldn't look at it as throwing guys in there. I mean…we've got football players that are hungry, that want to be in there, that are improving and making contributions to the team, and there's something about not just throwing a guy in but strategically putting a player in to be successful. That's the way I would phrase it.
"Ty did a nice job. We talked about it. I think he's an improving player and still has some work to do. You know, he's going to miss one and then made the big one. That was great to see.
"The offensive line is improving. Offensive line is getting better. Probably the guy who made the biggest jump is Kyle Kalis. Graded out for the ballgame 90% [or] a little above 90% along with Graham Glasgow, who's been consistently very good and been our best offensive lineman. Kalis is ascending fast, so it's great to see that. The other one is Ben Braden is playing better. Still has work to do, but he's improving as well. Thought Mason Cole and Magnuson both improved. They're playing more physical and they're finishing. They're really making an effort to finish right now. So, all five of those guys. What's helping our running game right now is them and the contribution by the backs, but also the receivers.
"The receivers are making a real effort right now to block downfield. They're blocking in the box, they are coming to get safeties, and they are blocking sometimes 30-40 yards downfield. Jehu Chesson was our player of the game offensively and on special teams, and a big reason was he contributed to the passing game, contributed to the running game, contributed putting points on the board, and his blocking was making a real effort at it. Along with all our receivers…Amara [Darboh].
"There's a lot of things contributing to us improving in the running game."
[After THE JUMP: Dennis Quaid comes up and if that doesn't get you to read the whole thing I guess we just don't have a similar sense of humor]

Millimeter Wave Reconfigurable Antenna Based on Active Printed Array and Inhomogeneous Lens O. Lafond1, M. Caillet2, B. Fuchs3, S. Palud1, M. Himdi1, S. Rondineau4, L. Le Coq1 1 Institute of Electronic and Telecommunication of Rennes , University of Rennes 1 (France) firstname.lastname@example.com 2 Royal Military College of Canada , Kingston, Ontario (Canada) 3 Ecole Polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne, EPFL, (Switzerland) 4 University of Colorado, Boulder, (USA), Abstract— reconfigurable antenna in millimetre wave range. An active printed antenna array is designed in 24 GHz band and feed an inhomogeneous lens (Half Maxwell Fish Eye) to obtain reconfigurable patterns and in particular sectorial and directive cases. In the first part, the authors describe a four patches multilayer active array which allows achieving radiation pattern control by associating a commutator to each element and by changing the fed patches number. In a second part, this array feed an inhomogeneous lens to shape radiation pattern. This paper deals with radiation pattern I. INTRODUCTION Far field radiation pattern control antennas have strong potential in wireless communication and radar. In particular, short range and ''Stop and Go'' radars are studied to obtain beam shaping antennas for automotive cruise control radars [1]. If printed antennas are well suited with active device report, they can introduce bad results in term of efficiency if high gain antennas are wanted. Then, it could be interesting to combine active printed antennas array and lens to achieve control pattern and high efficiency by reducing losses in feeding line network. The authors have been working on inhomogeneous lenses [2] for several years. Thus, this type of lens has been chosen to be associated with an active printed antenna array. This array is composed of four patches with a switch for each patch. This design allows to change the number of fed patch to control the beamwidth [3, 4]. The paper is organized as follows. In section II, the reconfigurable printed antenna array is discussed when using a low cost switch based on LNA amplifier configuration. For this active antenna array, one obstacle appears to maintain a good matching whatever the number of fed patches. A solution is proposed and implemented here. Then, results of simulation and measure are compared at 24 GHz and show a good consistency in terms of radiation pattern and gain. In section III, the Half Maxwell fish Eye lens is briefly described before being associated to the active patch antenna array which will become the feeder of the lens. The lens allows to achieve directive radiation pattern in E plane because only one patch feed the lens. In H plane, depending on the number of fed patches, a sectorial or a directive beam can be obtained. The results of simulation and measurements are given to demonstrate the reconfigurable radiation pattern feasibility. II. RECONFIGURABLE PRINTED ANTENNA ARRAY A. Technology and switch configuration To separate radiating elements from active switch, a multilayer technology [5] has been chosen to design reconfigurable printed array at 24 GHz. In this configuration, patches are printed on top substrate (RT Duroid 5880, h = 0.127mm) and lines on bottom substrate (Duroid RO3003, h = 0.127mm). The patches are fed by microstrip lines via coupling slots (Fig. 1) which are engraved in a thick copper ground plane (h =0.2 mm). Feeding line of patchFeeding line of patchSwitchSwitchFeeding lineFeeding lineSlot / line transitionSlot / line transitionThick copperGround planeGround planeDuroid 5880Duroid 5880Duroid RO3003Duroid RO3003Thick copper Fig. 1 : Multilayer technology with active and radiating patches layers A brief description of reconfigurable antenna is shown in Fig. 2 where switches and radiating elements are shown. Many technologies exist for RF swith design. The most common are semiconductors [6], MEMS [7] and also electromechanical switches [8]. Semiconductor technology has been selected in this case because it allows to have high speed switching and relatively low cost. PIN diodes and transistors can be employed but the last one provide gain and better isolation. Thus, a FET transistor (NEC NE3210s1) has been retained. Because a transistor has been selected, design constraints are different according to the considered configuration of the antenna, transmission or reception. Considering a reception configuration, a Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) has been designed by minimizing the Noise Figure (NF) characteristic. To achieve the switch functionality, the idea is to use a variable gain amplifier by controlling the drain bias voltage. At the ON-state, the gain will be positive and the input return loss equals to Γopt to minimize NF and the output return loss matched to 50Ω. At this OFF state, the gain will be negative to achieve a good isolation and the output return loss should be equivalent to an open circuit. After, the feed network

design is based on these constraints. The FET-switch has been optimized for 24 GHz and good results have been obtained revealing an isolation close to 20 dB and a 5 dB gain in ON-state. PatchPatchSlot SlotSwitchSwitch Fig. 2 : Multilayer Reconfigurable antenna array composed of microstrip patches, aperture slot transitions and switches B. Feed network design to achieve antenna matching For the reconfigurable patch antenna array, the number of ON switches is variable to provide beamwidth tunability. Moreover, the antenna array has to be matched whatever the number of fed patches. Using a classical feeding line network, the number of fed patches is stable and quarter-wave transformers are chosen to match the global antenna array. But, in our case, if a classical feeding line network is employed, the active antenna array will be matched when 4 patches will be fed, but completely mismatched when one patch will be fed. Then, the authors proposed to add a quarter wave transformer having an optimized impedance at the input port of the antenna to achieve an acceptable matching for all configurations (1 to 4 fed patches corresponding to D1, D2, D3, D4 configurations). A detailed demonstration of this original matching technique is described in [9]. The complete active antenna prototype is pictured in Fig. 3 for both radiating element and active layers. The switches are put ON with VDS = 2V and put OFF with VDS = 0V. The simulated normalized radiation patterns are plotted in Fig. 4 for all configurations (D1 to D4) at 24.2 GHz. The directivity depends of the number of fed patches and is respectively equals to 7.3, 11.2, 13.6 and 15.1 dBi. Concerning prototype characterization, S11 magnitude parameter has been measured for all configurations and results are presented in Fig. 5. The antenna array is matched whatever the number of fed patches close to 24 GHz even if only -8 dB is achieved for the D4 configuration. The measured radiation patterns are also shown on Fig. 6 for the same configurations to compare with simulation results. This reception antenna configuration has been measured in a millimeter wave anechoid chamber.

These results are higher than the simulation predictions, but it could be due to the active switch power gain.

Concluding remarks An active directivity diversity printed antenna has been demonstrated at 24 GHz. This prototype allows to tune the half power beamwidth of the antenna by changing the number of fed patches in the array. To achieve this result, a switch design based on FET transistor has been shown. The matching of this antenna is obtained whatever the number of fed patches by modifying the characteristic impedance of a quarter wavelength. If this design permits to change directivity, it doesn't allow obtaining shaped radiation pattern. This kind of shaped beam, sectorial for example, could be a good solution for automotive cruise control radar to ensure ''Stop and Go'' system. To design a sectorial radiation pattern antenna array, the radiating elements have to be tapered in terms of phase and amplitude. In millimetre waves, phase shifter and attenuators or amplifiers used to design beam forming antenna, are scarce and expensive. Then, in the following section of this paper, a new solution investigated by the authors to get a sectorial shaped pattern with only switches is presented. It is shown that it is possible to achieve this functionality by associating the active antenna array with an inhomogeneous lens. III. INHOMOGENEOUS LENSES - CAPABILITY A. Introduction IETR has been working over the last years on inhomogeneous lenses based on gradient index technique. This type of lens has pattern focusing and beam forming capability. The refraction index n(r) inside the lens follows a radial distribution. The most known inhomogeneous lens is 'Luneburg' one [10], but another case of lens that has been investigated [11] is named Half Maxwell Fish Eye (HMFE). This lens consists on a hemispherical shape and the refraction index law is given by : 212rrn+=)( where r is the normalized radial position. No reliable technique is currently able to yield the continuous gradient index. Then, the easiest technique for the implementation consists of assembling a finite number of concentric homogeneous dielectric shells [12]. The radius and dielectric constant of the shells have been chosen to optimize directivity when the lens is fed by a source antenna (Fig. 7a). For our reconfigurable antenna application, a 9-shells lens has been made with dielectric constant between 1 and 4 to approach the law (Fig. 7b). The radius of the lens equals 60 mm for this prototype. Fig. 7 : HMFE lens fed by a waveguide source (a), the 9-shells HMFE lens. B. Capability of reconfigurable radiation patterns If only one feeder illuminates the lens, highly directive antenna is achieved. But, if the lens is associated with a sources array, it becomes possible to shape the radiation pattern [13]. Depending on the number of fed sources, the global antenna system gives the capability to get directive and sectorial radiation patterns. An example is given at 77 GHz where 9 waveguide feeders are put under the lens in H plane (Fig. 8). If only one source feed the lens, a directive radiation pattern is shown with a gain close to 30 dB. But, if the 9 sources feed the lens, a sectorial radiation pattern is achieved with a gain close to 20 dB. In E plane, only one waveguide exists then a directive pattern is maintained. Fig. 8 : Capability of reconfigurable radiation pattern with lens and feeders. Based on this lens capability, the precedent active printed antenna array in the 24 GHz band has been placed under the lens to demonstrate the feasibility of reconfigurable active antenna based on inhomogeneous lens. IV. RECONFIGURABLE FINAL PROTOTYPE AT 24 GHZ Radiation pattern at 24 GHz have been simulated using CST Microwave Studio. For this simulation, a passive printed antenna array (without switches) is considered with the HMFE lens (Fig. 9). Two configurations have been considered : two
Page 4
fed patches to obtain a directive pattern and four fed patches to obtain a sectorial one (Fig. 10). The measured radiation patterns are shown in Fig. 11 for the same cases. Fig. 9 : Simulation of global system with feeders and lens. 0-40-35-30-25-20-15-10-5-80 -60 -40 -20 0 20 40 60 80angle (° ) (dB)Two fed patchesFour fed patches Fig. 10 : Simulated radiation patterns at 24 GHz for both configurations 0-40-35-30-25-20-15-10-5-80 -60 -40 -20 0 20 40 60 80angle (° ) (dB)Two fed patchesFour fed patches Fig. 11: Measured radiation patterns at 23.9 GHz for both configurations A comparison of the half power beamwidths between measures and simulations is given in Tab. 1 and shows a good consistency. Concerning gain characterization, the two configurations give respectively 22.5 dB and 19 dB. These results illustrate that the switch brings a gain close to 7 dB in our case. It is important to talk about the matching of the global antenna prototype. Indeed, the lens doesn't modify the matching of the active printed antenna array, because the law inside the lens does not generate reflections toward the feed. Configuration Simulation θ-3dB (24 GHz) 28° 66° Measure θ-3dB (23.9 GHz) 25° 58° Two fed patches Four fed patches Tab. 1 Beamwidths for both configurations V. CONCLUSIONS AND PROSPECTS In this paper, the authors have studied, designed and realized a directivity diversity printed antenna array based on multilayer technology and FET switches. The switches allow to change the number of fed patches and thus to modify electronically the beamwidth of the radiation pattern. This active patch array has been associated to an inhomogeneous lens (HMFE). Depending on the number of fed patches (2 or 4), it becomes possible to shape radiation pattern to get sectorial or directive patterns. This solution is very attractive to reconfigure millimetre wave antennas without phase shifters or attenuators but only by using switches. One objective of the future work will be to design reconfigurable antenna in 77 GHz band by using active waveguide feeding line network to optimize efficiency in millimetre wave applications.

This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

For awhile, I've wanted to try my hands at writing a gadget for the Windows Sidebar in Vista, but I could never come up with a project idea that was small enough to accomplish and useful enough to justify. Since we recently added two TiVo HD units to our home network, I thought it'd be handy to expose their Now Playing lists. I knew the data was available over our home network, because the TiVo Desktop software displays a lot of it. Turns out, the TiVo Developer Resources section of their site contains just enough to get going.
Without going into too many details, recent versions of the TiVo software on certain units (TiVo HD and TiVo Series3 HD, I think) contain a small web server that can be issued requests. These requests are passed via the query string and return their results as XML. For example, our downstairs TiVo unit has an IP address of 192.168.1.104 (you can find the IP address of your TiVo by navigating to Messages & Settings, then Settings, then Phone & Network). If I open my web browser and navigate to https://192.168.1.104/TiVoConnect?Command=QueryContainer, I'll receive an XML response that includes information like the title of the unit and a URL to obtain the current Now Playing list.
If you try this same request with your own TiVo (using the correct IP address, of course), you will first run into a security certificate warning. If you decide to continue, you'll then be asked for credentials. The user name is always tivo, and the password is your media access key. Your media access key can be found in the right column by logging in to your TiVo account online or by navigating to Messages & Settings, then Account & System Information, then Media Access Key on your TiVo. For a more "friendly" Now Playing list, you can also navigate to https://192.168.1.104/nowplaying/index.html using a similar procedure.
When I started writing the TiVo gadget, I could not successfully complete an XMLHttpRequest for the XML data because of the certificate warning (which I couldn't see, since this was all happening behind the scenes of the gadget). I soon figured out that the actual certificate is issued to the service number of the TiVo unit, but since the requests are being made to an IP address instead, the mismatch causes the warning. It's kind of like saying that I trust Mike Swanson, but I don't trust Swanson, Mike (same person, but represented differently). Ideally, then, I would want to issue my request to the service number of the TiVo so that the certificate would match.
On most networks, you can reach a machine by its IP address and its name; that's because the machine shares its name on the network. Unfortunately, the TiVo doesn't share its name (the service number) on the network like other devices. To resolve this issue requires a few steps, and if you decide to download and try the TiVo Now Playing gadget, you'll need to perform them:
Whew! Sorry that you had to go through all of that, but I'm not aware of any other method (short of possibly installing a custom ActiveX control) to get around this certificate issue. TiVo could solve the issue by broadcasting its service name on the network. Perhaps they'll do that in a future version of their software.
Assuming you've made it this far, you can download the TiVo Now Playing v1.0.1 gadget (182KB) and install it on your Windows Sidebar. Click the little "wrench" icon to configure the gadget. Enter your service number in TiVo address(es), and your Media access key. If you have more than one TiVo on your home network, you can enter multiple service numbers separated by semicolons. Note that all TiVos in a single household share the same media access key, so you only need to enter one of those.
This post is already rather long, so I'll quickly summarize the current gadget features:
I'm sure there's more I could say, and I'll probably say it in a future post. Please enjoy the gadget, and pass along any comments, suggestions, or questions via e-mail or by leaving feedback.
Update: If you downloaded version 1.0 of the gadget and you're not seeing any of your programs listed, please try version 1.0.1. Hopefully, this will fix the issue.
Mike -
Sorry if this is a double post, but I got an error the first time. In any case, you were right - I wasn't entering the service # in the "Tivo Address" box; I was using the IP address of the box instead. N00b mistake. But definitely would be clearer if you stated service # instead of address. Meanwhile, downloaded 1.0.2 and it works great. Thanks for your efforts!
I have been having issues getting the Tivo Gadget to work for me ;-( I have followed the instructions closely and also trouble shooted the issue with all previous comments here to no avail.
My gadget only displays "(unkown) (0)" for my series 2 tivo. I think the issue has to do with the certificate because when accessing the test url I continue to receive certificate errors. I say this because I had to run IE 7 as administrator in order to even install the certificate. In fact the "install certificate" buttons are greyed out when I load the url as my user account.
Check List:
1. added [tivo ip address] and [tivo service number] to hosts file
2. added https://[tivo service number] to "Trusted Sites"
3. browsed to https://[tivo service number]/TiVoConnect?Command=QueryContainer (test url) and received xml data.
4. right clicked on blank space on this page and install certificate to the "Trusted Root Certification Authorities"
5. installed the gadget and click the configuration wrench...
6. added [tivo service number] (only the number without anything else)
7. added my media access key
If anyone else has had experience with this issue your help would be greatly appreciated.
Hey Mike - I have it working with no problems on my 2 TivoHD units. Beautiful work! Thanks so much.
I'm having the same problems as Jacko157. Getting "unknown (0)" I have installed the certificates twice, and have tried to install both ver 1.0.1 and 1.0.2. I have a Ser 2 and a HD Tivo and have also tried to use only one of the service numbers instead of both, no luck there either. I don't understand your reply to Patrick and Jen. Can't wait to get the gadget working!
I have a TivoHD and vista and followed the instructions and got the "unknown(o)" thing also. I rechecked things and my service number with the last 4 digits/letters I wasn't sure if it was the letter or numeral zero. I changed it to the numeral o and all worked just fine.
I can't wait to get this gadget working, but I believe I'm having the same problem as Jacko157. No matter how many times I install the certificate to Trusted Root Certification Authorities, it doesn't seem to "take." The wizard tells me that the import was succesful, but when I refresh the site it continues to give me a certificate error.
If anyone has a suggestion, I'd appreciate it.
You 'd Man! Thanks. struggled through it some but finally got it working. It might help if you put a sample Tivo Address under the config. I kept thinking you meant the IP there and of course it did not work.
Mike Swanson写了一款Vista边栏小工具, TiVo Gadget for Windows Vista ,它非常适合放在TiVo用户的桌面上。你可以在这里下载这一小工具。即使你家中有很多个TiVo,你也可以应用这一小工具查看"正在播放列表"。这一工具可以把节目按照系列放在一起,有新的节目时它会发出"叮"的声音提醒你。对于有很多TiVo的家庭,你可以给它们编辑各种名称以便区分,比如"Downstairs"或者"Den"等等。当你在gadget上点击电视节目名称时,就能看到节目的相关信息。在小工具中编辑TiVo的名称还需要一些步骤,因为TiVo不同于其他的网络设备,它不能在网络中共享名称(又称服务代码)。但是不用担心,Mike已将这些步骤清楚地写在了他的博客上。一旦知道了服务代码,你就可以进入,并进行设置,TiVo上的"正在播放列表"就显示在桌面上
This is great.
As long as one can follow instructions it's pretty easy to install.
My only recommendation would be to change the field label "Tivo addresses" in the config. Tivo has its own IP address and it took me a rereading to figure out I needed to enter the service number.
Great little gadget! I might have over looked these 2 items, but I thought I'd mention them here: 1) Seperate multiple TiVo address with a ";" and 2) Use the TiVo Service Name.
Also, if there was a choice to shrink font sizes that would be a nice little addition.
I'm using this on a TiVo 80 hour Series 2 (240 series) and a 40 hour Series 2 (540 series). Both are networked with TiVo wireless adapters and your instructions were spot on here.
Anyone figure out the problem with not getting the certificate to take? I am using Vista 64bit and even though it says import successful, it doesn't (reload brings up the certificate error). Any suggestions would be VERY helpful. Really want to use this.
I just installed this on a new Vista Home Premium machine as per the directions without any trouble. I am able to see everything on my TIVO. Wonderful gadget! Now if you can jsut get it to transfer them for me, I can remove the rediculous TIVO desktop software... :)
Thank you for sharing your success with the rest of us....
Very cool, Mike! Right up there with Galleon but with a Vista-worthy UI. I salute you!
Since you clearly know what you're doing with regards to the TiVo's undocumented internal web server, let me ask you this:
How may I enable the user to "skip" the login credentials part? Be patient- let me explain...
<rant>Yes, I understand the serious legal and slightly-less-serious security rasons not to do this, but let's face it: in 3-5 years we'll all be sharing and recommending our DVR'd shows via the international free WiFi mesh network, and the big media companies will have all survived the painful transition and accepted the loss of their direct control of content distribution (haven't we already done this with music :) ??) At this point the revenue will probably come from ad-supported enabling software.</rant>
Having said that, here is the environment: I've forwarded ports 80 & 443 on my router to one of my TiVo Series3 boxes, and it's pretty damn cool, if I may say so myself. Think of a sling box, just not live.
So on what level would this problem be approached? I tried the good old fashioned https://user:email@example.com, with no luck, and then attempted https://host.domain.tld/?user=tivo&pass=P455w0rD, but no luck either.
Am I thinking too narrowly about this? Should I be appending information via the router, or using a sort of proxy server?
Cool blog.
Kind regards,
Crockett Dunn
Greetings. Great job! Might I recommend a software mod though. The TiVo server only returns the first 128 shows. From this snippet, you can see that my TotalItems is 134 but my ItemCount is limited to 128.
Here's a TiVo forum thread about it.
Thanks again!
<Title>Now Playing</Title>
I was able to install this per your detailed instructions in Vista Ultimate 32 bit last week for a Series 2 DT, and just now for my new TivoHD. Great idea for a gadget, I'm so happy I have it!

It featured Steve Reeves in the title role and made him an international star. The movie draws material from the Twelve Labors of Hercules, throwing in some of Jason and the Argonauts as well. The film spawned one sequel with Reeves, ''Hercules Unchained'', and several more with [[TheOtherDarrin other lead actors]]. ''Hercules'' (aka ''The Labors Of Hercules'')\\Demigod Hercules travels to Iolcus, where he is to become a personal trainer to Prince Iphitus, heir apparent to the throne of the city. Along the way he [[DamselInDistress rescues the lovely Iole]], who it turns out is Iphitus' sister and Princess of Iolcus. Iole tells Hercules of the night her father, Pelius, ascended the throne when his brother the king was killed; it is suspected that Pelius himself was involved in the previous king's death.Hercules arrives in time to overhear a prophecy concerning the true heir to Iolcus' throne, then takes to training Iphitus. Iphitus, for his part, is [[JerkJock quite arrogant and self-indulgent]]; but he gets his when he overestimates himself and takes on an escaped lion -- and quickly gets chomped. Hercules dispatches the lion, but not in time to save Iphitus, and is left humiliated because he failed to protect the prince.Enough of that, the Greek Oracle tells him, sending him off to his next "labor" for the gods. Hercules objects, [[IJustWantToBeNormal wanting to be normal]] even to the point of [[WhoWantsToLiveForever renouncing his immortality]]. In the meantime, a young man named Jason arrives in the city, claiming to be the son of the late king; he proposes to [[FetchQuest fetch the Golden Fleece]] -- a royal heirloom with which he can prove his identity -- and Pelius gives him leave to do so, but [[TheMole secretly sends his henchman along to sabotage the voyage]].The crew of Jason's ship the ''Argo'' engage in a few mini-adventures on their way to retrieve the Golden Fleece. They make a pit stop at an island inhabited by Amazons, where they all fall in love -- and where they are almost killed. Eventually they make it to the hiding place of the Fleece, where Jason must fight [[{{Kaiju}} a dinosaur]] guarding the Fleece. The Fleece, it turns out, has [[DeadManWriting a message written on it]], pointing the finger at Pelius for the death of his brother the king.And so the ''Argo'' returns to Iolcus. But the henchman has done his job well; upon arrival the Fleece is missing, and Pelius charges Jason and his crew with treason. Hercules, Jason and the Argonauts fight Pelius' royal guard and get the upper hand (especially when Herc topples part of the palace on top of them) and kill the henchman. Seeing his undoing, Pelius confesses to Iole and poisons himself.Jason takes his rightful place as King of Iolcus, and Iole marries Hercules.''Hercules Unchained'' (aka ''Hercules And The Queen Of Lydia'')\\Based very loosely upon the myth of Hercules and Omphale, the second movie's {{t|heTeaser}}easer introduces us to FemmeFatale Omphale, who skates through the male population like a hot knife through warm butter -- and then has them killed when she's done. The film proper starts with newlyweds Hercules and Iole, along with Herc's young sidekick Ulysses (and yes, he is ''{{UsefulNotes/th|eTrojanWar}}at'' [[Literature/TheOdyssey Ulysses]]), arriving in Thebes to begin new adventures. They are immediately set upon by Anteaus, son of the Earth Goddess, but Herc quickly defeats him by dumping him into the sea.The heroes are diverted from their destination of Thebes, and arrive at a cave where dwells Hercules' old friend King Oedipus, who has been deposed; turns out he turned over the throne of Thebes to his sons Eteocles and Polynices on the grounds that they share rulership; Eteocles is currently ruling and refuses to step aside, and Hercules is sent in to negotiate. Eteocles acquiesces rather abruptly, and Hercules brings the news to Polynices.Or, rather, he attempts to. Along the way Hercules drinks from an enchanted well and [[EasyAmnesia loses his memory]]; he and Ulysses are captured by the royal guard of Queen Omphale. We learn here that the enchanted well is how the Queen acquires all her men; she tells the amnesiac Hercules that he is her husband, and that Ulysses (who is pretending to be deaf/mute) is just a servant. As Hercules basks in royal luxury in Omphale's palace, Ulysses snoops about and eventually discovers just what Omphale does with her discarded "husbands" -- she hires Egyptian taxidermists to create a WaxMuseumMorgue of her conquests -- and sends a messenger pigeon back to his family in Iolcus; in the meantime, he attempts to help Hercules regain his memory, to no avail.Meanwhile, Iole is arrested, for no apparent reason, by Eteocles, who has [[ILied rescinded his decision]] to turn over Thebes to his brother. With no word from Hercules, Polynices brings his army and lays seige to Thebes, and his general takes custody of Iole. The two brothers agree to settle their differences with a duel to the death -- which ends with ''both'' their deaths.Meanwhile, Hercules finally regains his memory just as his companions arrive from Iolcus. But Omphale don't give up that easy, and the heroes must battle their way to freedom. Realizing that the time he lost with Omphale means that Thebes has gone to civil war, Hercules must come up with a plan to sneak into the city, stop the warring factions, and rescue Iole.----As stated above, there were several subsequent films detailing the various exploits of Hercules, but presumably not in the same [[TheVerse continuity]] as Reeves' films given the wholesale replacement of the entire cast of characters, save Herc, in each new film. In fact, as it turns out, many of the subsequent "Hercules" films were originally centered on other mythical strongman heroes such as Sampson, who were renamed to "Hercules" when re-dubbed for American distribution (for example, ''Film/HerculesAgainstTheMoonMen''). For this reason, not to mention for purposes of relative brevity, this page deals mainly with the two films of the Reevesverse.[[folder:''Mystery Science Theater 3000'' versions of Hercules Movies]]* ''[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S05E02Hercules Hercules]]'' [Episode 502]* ''[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S04E08HerculesUnchained Hercules Unchained]]'' [Episode 408]* ''[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S04E12HerculesAndTheCaptiveWomen Hercules and the Captive Women]]'' [Episode 412]* ''[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S04E10HerculesAgainstTheMoonMen Hercules Against the Moon Men]]'' [Episode 410] (Actually a Maciste film redubbed for US release)[[/folder]]!!These movies provide examples of:* BoisterousBruiser: Antaeus.* {{Bowdlerise}}: A lot of family friendly changes. For example, Hercules doesn't kill Anteus in a brutal way.* BreakingTheBonds: Hercules. Ironically, this happens in the ''first'' film, not in the second. Furthermore, he remains ChainedByFashion.* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: At the beginning of ''Unchained'', Ulysses is a PluckyComicRelief guy who can't fight to save his life. In the middle of the movie, he's pretending to be a deaf NonActionGuy, which puts him beneath the guards' notice and allows him to eavesdrop freely. When it comes time to escape Omphale, [[LetsGetDangerous the gloves come off]] and Ulysses personally dispatches the captain of Omphale's guard.* DamselInDistress: Iole.* DeadManWriting: The dying king of the first film had just enough time to write an incriminating message about his brother -- [[{{Squick}} in his own blood]].* DubInducedPlotHole: In the dub, after Iphitus is killed by the lion and everyone shuns Hercules for "allowing" him to get killed, he goes to the Oracle and tells him that his strength is a curse and wants it gone so he can understand the feelings of mortals. Doesn't make much sense, does it, especially when he keeps using his strength throughout the movie. Because in the original he says his ''immortality'' is a curse that he wants gone so he can understand mortals better.* DullSurprise: The ''Captive Women'''s Hercules' reaction to the vision of Androcles. Summed up, it's basically: "o_O"* DumbMuscle: (Purportedly) Averted with Hercules:-->'''Ulysses:''' My father says you put strength ahead of everything; but I know you want us to use our forces only to serve our intelligence!* EasyAmnesia: The Waters Of Forgetfulness. Further, it's [[LaserGuidedAmnesia laser-guided]]; Herc forgets his identity, his friends, his history, even forgets how to use his own strength -- but he still remembers Iole's face (if not her name).* EvilLaugh: Eteocles is particularly fond of this.* FemmeFatale: Omphale.** To a lesser extent, the Amazons in the first film; they didn't ''want'' to kill Jason and his men, but were ordered to do so by their priestesses.* FetchQuest: Jason's quest with the Argonauts drives the plot for the first film's second half.* FiveManBand: The Argonauts, mostly in the first film. Even then, Hercules is at the center of most of the action. ** TheLeader: Technically Jason, though he's not the main character** TheLancer: Hercules, or possibly Laërtes** TheBigGuy: Hercules again** TheSmartGuy: Asclepius, and Argo a little bit** TheChick: Ulysses. * FollowTheLeader: Unlike most Italian genre films, ''Hercules'' wasn't a Follower in its particular genre (SwordAndSandal), but rather the Leader (or at least near the front of the pack).* GuileHero: Ulysses. Not a surprise at all considering, again, he is ''that'' Ulysses.* HeyItsThatVoice: The dinosaur guarding the Golden Fleece uses [[Film/{{Gojira}} Godzilla 1954]]'s roar.* IAmXSonOfY: Ulysses introduces himself to Hercules as "Ulysses, son of Laertes."* IJustWantToBeNormal, says Hercules to the Greek Oracle:-->'''Hercules:''' I want to live like every other mortal man; it's my prayer to have a family! I want children of my own!* JerkJock:** Iphitus in the first film; Polynices' General in the second.** Also Herc himself in the second film, to an extent; he won't defend his wife from Anteaus but reacts when Anteaus attacks him directly - but more likely he was just waiting for the right moment to catch Anteaus off guard and kick his ass. Other than that Herc's a genuinely nice guy (especially when compared to some of the myths). * KickTheDog: During a confrontation with his brother, Eteocles orders the execution of a pair of innocent, helpless maidservants, purely as a show of power.* LovableCoward: Aesculapius. Being TheMedic and an old man, [[JustifiedTrope no one expects him to get in a fight.]]* LovePotion: The Waters Of Forgetfulness, sort of; they don't make one fall in love with Omphale directly, but they sure do make it easier for her to manipulate him.* MaleGaze: When the Amazons first capture Jason and Co., the camera inserts a shot of the gals in formation with their bare legs perfectly posed.* MateOrDie: The reason the Amazons didn't want to kill Jason and his men. The priestesses [[HonorBeforeReason thought differently]].* TheMole: Eurysteus, Pelius' henchman, in the first film.* MrFanservice: The late great Steve Reeves, a popular body builder who'd been dabbling in acting for a few years (and almost shot to fame as Samson in 1949's ''Samson and Delilah'' before pulling out due to a dispute over his physique), shows off his mighty frame in various toga styles. * MsFanservice: Too many to list. * MythologyGag: In the original myth, Hercules was a slave to Omphale and wove tapestries for her. In ''Hercules Unchained'', his line "I pulled together the threads [of my memory]!" seems to be a reference to this.* NoArcInArchery: Averted in detail during the first movie when Hercules rattles off a string of variables that an archer has to consider before firing.* NotableOriginalMusic: "Evening Star", sung by Iole complete with [[InvisibleBackupBand Invisible Orchestra]].* PlotCoupon / PublicDomainArtifact: the Golden Fleece.* SecondPersonAttack: Hercules [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvYhw_0xjhcshown punches a bear]] multiple times through the POV of the animal, complete with ridiculous strobe HitFlash effects.* {{Sidekick}}: Ulysses.* ThatsNoMoon: That's no hill, it's a [[{{Kaiju}} dinosaur]]!* WaxMuseumMorgue: Omphale's preferred method of divorce.* WordSaladTitle: "Hercules Unchained"; as stated above, the chaining (and subsequent unchaining) of Herc happens in the first film.----

I have tried many multivitamins over the years and this one just works better than any other I have used previously. The iHerb price makes it very reasonable as well.

I have tried a lot of multivitamins for men including NOW ADAM and OPTIMUM OPTIMEN. This has got to be the best multi I have ever used. I feel like new and in the bedroom, things have really taken off. My erections are harder and stronger and recovery time is shorter than before. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

- 10x10 canvas board
- Lutradur Mixed Media Sheets
- TAP Transfer Artist Paper
- Household iron and a heat gun
- Acrylic paints, sponges and brushes
- Liquitex Resin Sand Texture Gel Medium
- Spray ink and alcohol inks
- Glossy Accents clear medium

- Metal strip, large metal brad, mini metal brads
- Sponge paint canvas board randomly with two colors (I used bronze with black highlights) and allow to dry.
- Apply a generous amount of texture gel medium on top of canvas board, tap with a brush to create peaks and allow to dry...this texture looks like rich soil to me!
- Spritz the canvas board with a spray ink (I used a coffee color) and allow to dry.
- Inkjet print your image on to TAP Transfer Artist Paper and transfer to a sheet of Lutradur with an iron (follow instructions in TAP package).
- Trim edges of the Lutradur to give a white border around image (mine is about 5-1/4" x 6") and lightly blow the edges with a heat gun to distress.
- Highlight any dew drops on your plant image with Glossy Accents and apply mini brads to corner.
- Glue a sheet of thin sandpaper to cardboard to stabilize and trim to the same size as Lutradur.
- Layer the Lutradur on top of the sandpaper, offset and glue both to canvas board.
- Crinkle a narrow metal strip, flatten out and dab with a darker shade of alcohol ink to "antique" it, then glue into place as shown.
- Glue a large metal brad into place as shown, dab with alcohol ink if you want to alter the color.
- Add a self-adhesive picture hanger to the back and enjoy your new work of art!

I made an amazing discovery this morning - when you stir some buckwheaties (sprouted dehydrated buckwheat), it tastes just like Grape nuts stirred into fruit yogurt which I loved once upon a time. I was all nostalgic! Really yummy and easy.
YieldServes 1 when I'm eating it
20 cherries
Half an avocado
3 small dates
Recipe Directions
1. Combine cherries, avocado, and dates in a mini food processor or blender. Voila. Your pudding is ready!

this is such a simple delicious idea. i added a banana to mine, soaked my dates, and put frozen fruit instead of cherries. It's not exactly the same recipe anymore, but using frozen fruit gives it a nice thicker texture.
I tried this last night,adding the cacao powder!!! YUMMMMEEEEEEEEE!!!!
what a combination!... i would not thought of it. thank you.
I made this the other week for breakfast, and I loved it! This will become a standard in my breakfast repertoire. I used 2 figs instead of 3 dates, added 1/2" of vanilla bean, and I used 2t of cacao powder, since I love the combination of chocolate and cherries.
MMMMM! Can't wait to get an avacado so I can try this!
This is so good with Raw Pop Tarts made with Buckwheat, Coconut Oil & Unheated Honey. Here's the link(hopefully it works!) http://www.therawtarian.com/community/recipe/raw-pop-tarts
Thanks for this recipe!
I put my avocado in the freezer for a bit before... It was very good!

Apple's move to cut Samsung reliance likely to backfire
By Kim Yoo-chul
Amid the deepening global patent dispute with Samsung, Apple has sped up efforts to lower its heavy reliance on its biggest business rival in key components such as computer memory chips and flat-screens.
A leading local research firm also insisted that the diversification strategy will have a minor impact on Samsung, while Apple is increasingly at risk of having its supply chain deteriorate.
''If the Samsung-Apple relationship in parts falls apart, then Apple will experience serious parts sourcing problems. In contrast, Samsung looks quite safe even in the worst-case scenario,'' Kim Hak-kyun, a chief analyst at KDB Daewoo Securities, said in a report Wednesday.
Apple is forecast to contribute around 4 percent to Samsung's expected entire operating profit this year. The portion is expected to reach 6 percent in 2013, Kim wrote.
''Apple is approaching Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) to get more advanced mobile application processors (APs) in a bid to diversify its lines of supply and reduce its reliance on Samsung. But even though Apple buys whole mobile APs from TSMC, it will lower Samsung's total operating profit by 2 percent. This isn't a major blow for Samsung,'' said the chief analyst.
The Korean firm is a dominant supplier for memory chips, mobile APs and displays and the industry's sole parts supplier that guarantees on-time delivery, output commitment, better pricing with highly-qualified manufacturing technology.
Apple initially decided not to use Samsung's flash-type memory chips in the latest iPhone 5. In retaliation, the Korean company decided to terminate a display sourcing deal with Apple due to its rigid supply chain structure, surprising the iPhone maker.
''Apple planned to stop using Samsung's technology in its devices. But the ambitious plan seemingly failed as Apple agreed with Samsung to use its flash memory chips for the upcoming iPhone 5,'' said a Samsung executive asking not to be identified citing the sensitivity of the issue.
He continued, ''As far as I know, Apple accepted requests by Samsung to pay more to use its chips for i-devices. Currently, Apple has no option but to use Samsung technology. One obvious point is Apple needs Samsung and can't completely drop Samsung from its client lists.''
Under the new agreement, Samsung will account for between 10 and 15 percent of all Apple's flash memory chip demand. ''This is the business. By gaining more share in the global smartphone market, Samsung Electronics has begun building up its own supply chain management structure by lowering its previous heavy reliance on Apple,'' said Kim of KDB Securities.
Samsung spokesman Ken Noh declined to comment.
By excluding Samsung in its parts-sourcing channels, the delivery timing for the new mini iPad sold via Apple's online stores was delayed two weeks, while the delivery of its fourth-generation iPad was also delayed one week as initial volumes of the devices were ''small,'' according to analysts and fund managers.
''Supply remains very tight even in its strategic smartphone, the iPhone 5. The exclusion of Samsung in displays and other parts is one crucial reason. Apple doesn't want to see a steep fall in its stock price and that means the company is readying itself to pay more to buy Samsung parts,'' said an unnamed fund manager from a European investment bank in Seoul by telephone.

Junior Jacob Worley, an intern with the Red Cross, has been helping with the campus blood drive for three years. Worley said the Red Cross is experiencing a "critical shortage of blood." He attributes this to the holiday season and people not wanting to venture out in the cold.
Donors must be at least 17 years old and weigh at least 110 pounds. They must be in good health and cannot have donated within the last eight weeks. An American Red Cross donor card or photo ID with date of birth is required of all donors.
The process takes about an hour, but could save as many as three lives, according to the Red Cross.
Records show University blood drives date back to at least 1972. "Bowling Green State University is the largest drive in northwest Ohio," said Linda Hartman, senior donor requirement representative. "It runs anywhere from three to five days, and we collect around 600 pints of blood."
Donors will receive a "bag the hero in you" laundry bag. They also may enter to win a Daytona 500 vacation package.
Music college enacts policy, price changes
The College of Musical Arts changed concert ticket prices and box office policies, effective Jan. 1.
Tickets purchased on the day of college performances at the Moore Musical Arts Center now cost $3 more than tickets purchased further in advance.
General admission tickets to college-sponsored performances in Kobacker Hall are $7 for students and senior citizens and $10 for other adults in advance, and $10 and $13, respectively, on the day of the performance.
Advance tickets for opera productions will cost $9 for students and senior citizens and $12 for other adults. Tickets purchased on the day of performances will be $12 and $15, respectively.
Single tickets for Festival Series concerts are also increasing by $3 on the day of performances.
In addition, credit and debit cards will only be accepted for ticket purchases more than one hour prior to music events. Payment by cash, check or the BG1 Card will be the only tender accepted in the final hour before curtain time.
Officials said the changes are being made to offset the higher cost of music and supporting materials, as well as to encourage patrons to buy tickets further in advance so concerts can begin promptly as scheduled.
Those with questions may call Deborah Fleitz, the college's director of public events, at 2-8654.
Child-free by Choice support group forming
The decision whether or not to have a child can be difficult in and of itself. Those who decide not to have children face a variety of challenges, including societal and familial pressure as well as struggles managing this choice within dating relationships. The Women's Center, in affiliation with Natalie Mitchell of the campus Counseling Center, is offering a support group to help with these challenges and other related difficulties. The time and dates of meetings will be determined.
If you are interested in participating, contact Mitchell at firstname.lastname@example.com. The group is open to students, staff and the community.
