Online classes give you the flexibility to learn off-campus, often at times most convenient for your schedule. Identify 10 degrees you can earn online, weigh the pros and cons of online education and find out how you can take online classes for free.

The Online Education Initiative will greatly expand course offerings for community college students, while making the transfer process between institutions much more smooth. The Initiative has its critics, however, who decry the loss of local control over education.
In an effort to boost graduation rates among community college students in their state, the California Community College Chancellor's Office, with funding from the state legislature, will implement the Online Education Initiative (OEI) this fall. The central tenet of the OEI is to expand course offerings and related online services to help students obtain a degree or facilitate transfer to another California institution for matriculation. For years, budget cuts have greatly impacted the course offerings of the state's community college system, leaving hundreds of thousands of potential students shut out of the system. State education officials hope that this new online portal will open the doors to those students. It is also hoped that expanded access to courses will improve student retention and thus lead to more degrees and certificates being conferred, particularly among underserved and underrepresented populations in the state.
Particulars of the California Community College Online Education Initiative
The OEI will operate under a single delivery modality called the Online Education Ecosystem. This centralized online portal would essentially leverage the power of all member institutions to deliver a highly robust online learning experience that would be difficult for individual institutions to develop and deploy on their own. The system will be built on the existing foundation of the California Virtual Campus, which provides information about online courses offered throughout the state. At present, the system includes 24 of California's 112 community colleges. Each of the 24 institutions is currently engaged in a pilot phase in which. . .read more
We'll report on the latest craze in higher education – the MOOC – and why community colleges are considering the addition of these online classes to their course lists.
Massive Open Online Courses, dubbed MOOCs by most educators, have become the buzzword for higher education. Providing free, online education on a global, rather than a campus, level has serious implications for the world of higher education overall. Despite the obvious benefits of MOOCs (free, readily available, etc.), many educators are skeptical of their actual value in the real college experience. How exactly did MOOCs make it on the scene and what does their future hold? The answers may depend on who you ask.
Anatomy of a MOOC
According to the Washington Post, a Massive Open Online Course is a college-level class offered for free online. The courses are available to anyone with an Internet connection, whether or not they are currently enrolled in a college or university. The classes allow students to study and learn on their own time, and at any location, unlike traditional courses that follow a set schedule in a classroom.
MOOCs have garnered interest from a number of institutions of higher education, particularly for-profit schools and newer startups in online education. Coursera, one of the best known companies offering MOOCs at this time, has partnered with institutions like Harvard and Stanford to bring the MOOC model to those prestigious college campuses. Other MOOC companies, including Udacity and edX are also busy signing up college partners for their online courses.
What's Good
There are obvious benefits to MOOCs, at least on the surface of the concept. Free college classes could change the face of higher education in the. . .read more
We report on a first-of-its-kind degree program introduced by Tidewater Community College that is 100 percent textbook-free. We also explore ways to save on textbook costs – for students that don't live near the Tidewater campus.
College is a pricy endeavor today, but at least one community college is looking for a way to help students cut the cost of a college education. Tidewater Community College in Virginia has announced plans to debut a textbook-free degree program next year. College officials estimate the pilot program could cut the cost of the degree by as much as a third by the time graduation rolls around.
Learning Business without Textbooks
The Richmond-Times Dispatch reports that Tidewater Community College will be offering an associate of science degree in business administration this fall that will require no textbook purchases throughout the program. Instead, students will use open-source educational materials, known as OER, which they will be able to access through the school's learning management system on smart phones or tablets. The college will be the first to offer a complete degree program without any textbooks required.
The program was developed as a partnership between Tidewater Community College and Lumen Learning; an Oregon-based company that helps schools across the country incorporate OERs into their learning plans. The founder of Lumen, David Wiley, has advocated for open-education for the past 15 years, according to The Chronicle of Higher Education. However, no school has been open to the concept of a completely textbook-free degree program until now.
"It's frustrating to watch these resources keep getting created, and then watch nobody use them and the students get no benefit," Wiley stated at The Chronicle of Higher Education.

We look at some of the hottest two-year degree programs today that can be earned right from the comfort of home.
Online education has been increasing in popularity for adult students over the past decade. Yahoo Education reports that in 2010, 27 percent of adults a degree-granting institutions were seeking their degrees online and that number is predicted to go as high as 39 percent by 2015. Today, adult students can find a wealth of options for in-demand degrees that they can earn almost exclusively from the comfort of home. Check out these online degrees you can earn in just two years or less.
Business Administration
Business degrees are relatively easy to earn online and offer a variety of options in today's workforce. Online education is an appropriate replica of the current business world, since much of today's administrative work is handled via the Internet. For those interested in a professional career in this field, business administration offers a solid foundation that opens the door to a variety of business occupations. With studies in accounting, human resources and management, you can hone your professional skills for the 21st century workforce without ever straying far from your home computer.
Paralegal Studies
The paralegal field is one of the fastest growing occupations today, according to Yahoo Education. The website cites numbers from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics that predict this field to grow by 24 percent between 2008 and 2018. Paralegal professionals work alongside attorneys in their practices, conducting research, writing briefs and educating clients about their cases. The average annual salary for paralegals today ranges from around $46,000 to $70,000.

We look at the increase in online course offerings at community colleges across the country, and why this option is becoming more popular with some students.
Community colleges strive to operate as institutions of higher education that meet the needs of many today. Convenience and flexibility are the mantra of these schools that host adult students with a wide range of family and professional responsibilities. To achieve those goals, many community colleges across the country are increasing their selection of online and hybrid courses, allowing many busy students to get in at least a portion of their study time from the comfort of home. As the demand for online coursework continues to grow, community colleges grapple with how to provide ultimate flexibility to students without sacrificing instructional quality or completion rates to give students the education options they are asking for.
The Growth of Online Options
Online courses have been increasing at community colleges nationwide since 2005, according to a recent report at Santa Ynez Valley News. The publication cites a report, titled, "Going the Distance: Online Education in the United States, 2011," which showed that 32 percent more students took an online course during fall 2011 term. That means more than 6.7 million community college students took advantage of online opportunities during that semester alone.
The number marks a significant increase in online courses from the same semester in 2008, when just 4.6 million students at community colleges took an online course. The 2008 numbers were a 17-percent increase from 2007, suggesting an uptick in the demand for online courses overall. In fact, the Marin Independent Journal states that online courses have increased. . .read more

The animal on the cover of Access Data Analysis Cookbook is a crab-eating mongoose (Herpestes urva), an endangered, essentially nocturnal mammal that is also an expert swimmer. Comparable in size to the stripe-necked mongoose, the four-foot crab-eating mongoose is grayish-brown in color, with a white, contoured stripe running from a corner of its mouth to its shoulder. It has a long, tapered head with a protruding snout, a somewhat rotund body, short, lean legs, and five claws on each paw. An elongated tail normally accounts for two-thirds of its body length. More aquatic by nature than others of its species, the crab-eating mongoose not only hunts freshwater crabs, it also preys on reptiles, fish, snails, rodents, frogs, insects, birds, and whatever else it can snatch from underneath stones and pull from rock crevices along stream banks and other damp parcels of land. Though native to Southeast Asia, sightings of the creature in the wild have been relatively rare-in India, the last sighting occurred more than 75 years ago; in HongKong, one sighting occurred more than 50 years ago, but, by luck, a healthy population was apparently discovered in 1988. Other countries that have reported sightings of the crab-eating mongoose include Nepal, Vietnam, Thailand, Myanmar, China, Laos, and Malaysia. The cover image is from Lydekker's Royal History. The cover font is Adobe ITC Garamond. The text font is Linotype Birka; the heading font is Adobe MyriadCondensed; and the code font is LucasFont's TheSans Mono Condensed.

Comments about oreilly Access Data Analysis Cookbook:
I'm a beginner/intermediate user of Access who historically focused on the VBA/GUI side of db development. I was looking for a tool that would explore the SQL side a bit more and this book did just that. The supplied code examples follow along nicely with the text exercises.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

A joke
By Amaru
from Wisconsin
Inconsistent and poorly written code, useless index, outdated. A waste of your money. Do you need code with the phrase "further processing goes here" in a book titled with the word "cookbook". Almost every example in the book after chapter 3 needs to be re-written. Examples of topics such as Arrays and Collections are mediocre. I could hardly find any "analysis" in this book titled with the words "Data Analysis". This book is not for the serious student trying to learn good Access VBA programming. O'Reilly should have vetted this travesty before publishing.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Oral Surgery Specialists of Atlanta
At Oral Surgery Specialists of Atlanta, our top priority is to deliver the highest level of patient care possible to each and every patient who enters our practice. Board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeons Dr. Andrew C. Aiken, DMD, MD and Dr. Thomas D. Berry, MD, DDS strive to serve patients with compassion and ensure that patients are fully informed and comfortable throughout the entire procedural process. Oral Surgery Specialists of Atlanta offers a wide variety of oral and maxillofacial surgical services including dental implants, wisdom teeth extraction, bone grafting, the full-arch restoration with the All-on-4® Treatment Concept, the treatment of oral pathology, and even stem cell banking services through Vault Stem Cell. If you have problems with your jaw, Dr. Peter W. Benoit, DMD, PhD provides specialized expertise in the treatment of TMJ disorders. With a convenient office location in Atlanta, our oral and maxillofacial surgeons, Dr. Andrew Aiken, Dr. Thomas Berry and Dr. Peter Benoit, are available to meet with you and discuss your individual needs.
Dental Implants
A dental implant is a prosthetic tooth that takes the place of your missing tooth or teeth. The natural appearance and long-term durability of dental implants attract most patients to this oral restoration option. There are three parts to a dental implant: the titanium implant, the abutment, and the crown. After the implant is inserted into the jaw bone, a small metal post, or abutment, is placed as an anchor to support the final crown. Dental implants look so natural that it is hard for most people to make a distinction between a real tooth and the prosthetic dental implant. If you are missing a tooth or multiple teeth, dental implants may be the right choice for you. If you are interested in finding out if you are a viable candidate for dental implants, Dr. Aiken or Dr. Berry will perform a thorough oral exam and review of your medical and dental history before developing a specific treatment plan. Our skilled surgeons and highly trained office staff will ensure that you are fully informed by answering any questions you may have prior to your procedure. To receive an oral exam and discuss your options, we urge you to schedule an appointment with Oral Surgery Specialists of Atlanta.
All-on-4® Treatment Concept
The All-on-4® Treatment Concept is a comprehensive oral restoration technique that is available to patients who are in need of a full arch replacement through dental implants. Patients who have the All-on-4® Treatment Concept receive four dental implants which attach to a temporary denture in just one surgical visit and allows patients to quickly solve their functional and aesthetic problems. Dr. Aiken and Dr. Berry approach this procedure as a team and include your restorative dentist who will develop your final set of teeth. At Oral Surgery Specialists of Atlanta, all of our patients rest easy under the care of our skilled surgical team. If you have lost most of your teeth and are searching for a permanent solution, the All-on-4® Treatment Concept may be the opportunity you have been looking for. To schedule a consultation and learn more about if you are a candidate for the All-on-4® Treatment Concept or other restorative options using dental implants, please call our office at (404) 351-5335.
Wisdom Tooth Extractions
Your wisdom teeth, which are also known as your "third molars," begin developing in the back of your mouth during late adolescence. While this extra set of molars do have the potential to provide added value to the mouth by increasing its chewing and grinding power, they usually do not grow into the mouth in a manner that allows patients to experience their benefit. Without an oral or x-ray examination, wisdom teeth are prone to go undetected until they begin breaking through the gum or causing other oral health problems. Most people do not have space in their jaw to accommodate wisdom teeth, which forces the molars to become impacted, cause pain, or develop bacteria or cysts. The proactive and recommended approach to wisdom teeth is to have them removed as soon as possible. At Oral Surgery Specialists of Atlanta, patients will undergo a thorough oral examination, which may include a panoramic x-ray and/or 3-D scanning of the jaw in order to determine the position and size of the teeth. Drs. Aiken and Berry are extensively trained to administer anesthesia, and our office offers multiple anesthetic options to fit each patient's needs. At Oral Surgery Specialists of Atlanta, we will do everything in our power to ensure that you have a comfortable and rapid recovery after wisdom teeth removal and achieve the optimum result.

(Click here for the info...you get rodeo tickets and a $200 gift certificate)
was just expecting a boot store...but I kind of freaked out when I saw all the cute "Texas/Country" home stuff they carried. I almost bought this rug in a fancy schmancy boutique in Dallas last Christmas. I am obsessed.
Tyler's Candles (The best bang for your buck candle out there...and they had TONS of scents)
So many cute wood "sayings" that look like everything on Pinterest!
How cool would it be to have a fridge/oven like this? Ummm really cool.
Cute metal signs
Super cute plastic totes for the pool? maybe?
oh...and then there was the baby lamb. I was told baby animals take over the store on Saturdays. I MUST go next Saturday and pet baby animals! What a fun thing to do with the family!

Well, my bracket's toast.
That's what happens when you lose seven of your Sweet 16 in the first round, have Indiana and Georgetown meeting in the Final Four and pick the Hoosiers to win it all.
But on the bright side, I DID have Florida Gulf Coast making it to the Elite Eight!
No, I didn't.
But who cares. Brackets are stupid, right? AMIRITE?!
". . . . . . . . . . ."
OK, fine. But whether or not you're still alive in your pool, Friday night's March Madness schedule should bring the goods. And that's convenient because we could all really use some goods (at least while we wait for the Bruins to acquire a player who actually wants to be acquired, for the NBA playoffs to get underway and for Jackie Bradley Jr. to announce his candidacy for the next mayor of Boston).
Most notably, Friday marks the return of the aforementioned No. 15 seed Florida Gulf Coast Eagles, one of the most exciting and easily the most entertaining Cinderella story in years. FGCU takes on the University of Florida, in a matchup so perfectly scripted that Disney's already in negotiations to buy the rights (I assume). The only downside is that the game doesn't start until 9:57 pm, which might make it hard for some East Coasters to get all the way through.
And there are obvious concerns over what will happen to Cinderella if the game doesn't end before midnight.
The first game of the night (7:15 pm) takes place at Lucas Oil Stadium, home of the Indianapolis Colts and the recurring nightmare known as Super Bowl 46. This one features Rick Pitino and the No. 1 overall seed Louisville Cardinals against the most disrespectfully seeded No. 12 Oregon Ducks.
Remember that Pitino full-court press that never quite caught on during the coach's four-year train wreck with the Celtics? Well, it's working in Louisville. And if Oregon can't cut down on the turnovers, the Cardinals are going to do to the Ducks what the football Ducks do to everyone else.
And what do we have in between Louisville/Oregon and the Battle for Florida? Only two games featuring four of the most storied programs in college basketball history.
First, at 7:37 pm at the mammoth Cowboys Stadium, it's top-seeded Kansas vs. No. 4 Michigan.
The Jayhawks are obviously stacked with talent, led by freshman Ben McLemore (the projected No. 1 overall pick in this summer's NBA Draft). But thankfully for Wolverines — they're stacked as well, only their talent will make you feel older than dirt. Tim Hardaway Jr. and Glenn Robinson III are both big-time talents but point guard Trey Burke is the guy who needs to make the biggest impact. Regardless, all three are projected as first round picks this summer.
And finally, there's Michigan State vs. Duke, at 9:45 pm in Indy, where two best buds — Coach K and Tom Izzo — face off for a berth in the Elite Eight.
Duke comes in as a three-point favorite, and it will take an a big effort from enormous Derrick Nix (6-9. 270 pounds) to put the Spartans over the top.
Come on, Derrick. Everyone non-Duke student/graduate in America is counting on you.
And that's all for now. Enjoy the games.
Standing Room Only will be back on Sunday with a special Red Sox preview . . . featuring the musical stylings of Brian Evans!
Weekend Madness is on the way

I am a firefighter from Collier County Florida, and by no means wealthy. Have you ever wanted to take a trip where you felt like you were the most important person on the planet? Have you ever wanted to live, if even for a short while, in a room that was built for kings or celebrities, and treated as such? THIS IS THE SPOT!!
Upon arriving at The Springs Resort you are met by a friendly gate guard in what appears to be a field of tall grass, very quiet and quaint. Little do you know that in just a few moments you will be swept off your feet and spun into pure nirvana. A short drive on a gravel road brings you to the top of a mountain in the clouds where I promise, you will never be happier.
When you reach the entrance, you will be greeted by a friendly staff ( hopefully Kailor ) AND THE ADVENTURE BEGINS! You will be welcomed with a delicious drink made with local fruit, and booze (if you like). You will be given a tour of a small portion of the property and a map to help you navigate your way through heaven. I promise you, it only gets better!
Words cannot describe the feeling of relaxation in the rooms......
In the morning, you can take a short bus ride, and everything under the sun you might want to do is there. Club RIO, is at the bottom of the hill/mountain. River rafting, tubing, horseback riding, hiking, eating, drinking, so on and so on and so on and my favorite, climbing......Its all there! I am an avid rock climber and the (NEW) rock wall that the owner (Lee) has constructed is ridiculous! AWESOME!! The guys that work there are the best. Byron, Jean Carlo and Rick manage the WALL and are eager to help anyone who is willing to learn, at any age group or skill level. From the smallest climber to the most advanced, these guys truly love their job and cant wait to teach, or learn, everyday!
My fiance and I loved the horseback riding so much that we decided to go again the next day. Our guide, Nano, went above and beyond. He took us on an adventure that included crossing the river on horseback! We are not experienced riders, but his gentle way with the horses, and with us, made us feel so at home riding! We truly feel that we made a new friend in Nano!
If you are looking for a once in a life time experience, looking to make new friends to last a life time, the springs resort has my A+++. WE CAN NOT WAIT TO COME BACK. THANK YOU SO SO MUCH......... everyone who works there, you guys, and girls, make the difference.
Who ever handles the human resources in your company Lee, they have their finger on the pulse of progress! I have never met a group of people that enjoy their jobs and lives as much as they do! THANK YOU ,THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!! PURA VIDA!!!!!!!!! The pure life is what you set out for I think, and you found it! ( for those of you that have no idea what Im talking about, just come see for yourself, you will not be upset.)

What is the health insurance tax?
The health reform law imposes a new sales tax on health insurance that increases the cost of health care coverage. The amount of the tax will be $8 billion in 2014, increasing to $14.3 billion in 2018, and increased based on premium trend thereafter. The health insurance tax will exceed $145 billion over the next ten years.
How will the tax impact you?
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has said that this tax will be "largely passed through to consumers in the form of higher premiums." An analysis by Oliver Wyman estimates that this tax "will increase premiums in the insured market on average by 1.9% to 2.3% in 2014," and by 2023 "will increase premiums 2.8% to 3.7%."
An updated report by Oliver Wyman, "Annual Tax on Insurers Allocated by State," estimates the impact this tax will have on individual market consumers, employers, and Medicare Advantage beneficiaries in all 50 states, as well as the impact on state Medicaid managed care programs. Using this data, AHIP has developed infographics for each of the 50 states and Washington, DC, detailing the effect of the tax.
This tax adds a financial burden on families and small businesses at a time when they can least afford it, and it should be repealed. AHIP supports legislation that would repeal the tax.
AHIP has launched Time for Affordability to raise awareness about how the health insurance tax and other provisions will affect premiums.
A bipartisan national poll commissioned by The Morning Consult found that the majority of Americans oppose the health insurance tax.
There are number of steps you can take to help sustain the momentum to repeal this tax including:
- Sharing this background video about the health insurance tax
- Sharing one of these infographics that shows how the health insurance tax will impact your state
- Sharing this video showing the support Congress has given legislation to repeal the tax
- Joining the conversation on Twitter

Third and last species encountered in Out of the Silent Planet.
Very interesting (and pretty accurate) interpretation of this strange species. I'm almost finished with the second book in the series, and it's good to see some art based on it.
Thanks! Glad you like it! I need to do more art from the trilogy, they're amazing.
Just wait until you get to That Hideous Strength! They're all great, but the third is the creepiest.
Just wait until you get to That Hideous Strength! They're all great, but the third is the creepiest.
I'm starting THS today. I must admit the first two had their pluses and minuses for me, so I'm curious how the trilogy is going to round out in the end.
For sure. THS does start a tad slow, but once it picks up, it gets pretty intense.
That's good to hear. I'm about 50 pages in, and I was just waiting for it to pick up, and wondering if it would. The other two were pretty gripping right from the start, but this one has a lot more pages to fill, so I'm interested to see what starts happening!
dude! i love this! i'm reading the books again, and thought i'd check out how other people imagine the various races. thanks for posting these!
These are so cool. I really like the size comparison silhouettes too. I always thought these guys were tiny for some reason.

Locus Focus on 10/29/12
THE NATURE OF BORDERS: SALMON, BOUNDARIES and BANDITS ON THE SALISH SEA: An Interview with Lissa Wadewitz
The 49th parallel has demarcated the border between Canada and the United States for over 150 years. But for millions of years before any people lived here, numerous runs of salmon flourished in the rivers, creeks and coastal waters of the Pacific Northwest. On this episode of Locus Focus, we talk about how arbitrary political borders have led to the Pacific salmon's precipitous decline, with guest Lissa Wadewitz, author of a new book The Nature of Borders: Salmon, Boundaries, and Bandits on the Salish Sea, about how the borders and boundaries of Euro-American settlers in the Northwest transformed once abundant salmon runs into ghosts of their former glory.
Lissa Wadewitz is an associate professor history and environmental history at Linfield College in McMinnville, Oregon.

VANCOUVER — When "X2″ slams into theaters next year, here are some of the things that you can expect to see:
- A full-scale attack on the X-Mansion
- New mutants like Nightcrawler, Pyro and Colossus
- Expanded roles for Rogue and Iceman
- A visit to the Weapon X facility, which contains X-rays of Angel's wings, the body of John Proudstar and the secrets to Wolverine's past
- Cyclops sporting a new visor … and, thankfully, a much better wig on Halle Berry
These were just some of the topics discussed at a recent press conference held on the super-secret Canadian set of the hotly anticipated sequel to the Marvel Comics flick. Deep within a chilly, cavernous soundstage not far from where the insides of the Mach II X-Jet rest, all of the new film's main players assembled at a long table in front of a giant 3-D "X" logo and mock news clippings decrying the "mutant menace."
Fox studio representatives, who had hoped to pull a few cast members away during lunch, were amazed by the scheduling miracle that allowed Kelly Hu (Lady Deathstrike), Brian Cox (Stryker), Rebecca Romijn-Stamos (Mystique), Ian McKellen (Magneto), Patrick Stewart (Professor X), director Bryan Singer, Hugh Jackman (Wolverine), Halle Berry (Storm), Famke Janssen (Dr. Jean Gray), James Marsden (Cyclops), Alan Cumming (Nightcrawler), Anna Paquin (Rogue) and Shawn Ashmore (Iceman) to sit together at the same time. All of them, returning cast members and newcomers alike, were ecstatic about the movie they were making.
"A good percentage of the first movie was exposition and explaining the characters," Marsden observed, "and we've gotten that out of the way."
Now it's time to delve deeper and to introduce some new players into the fold. Like Nightcrawler, a teleporting circus performer with a tail who's covered in blue fur and tattoos.
"I rue the day when I was the one who said, 'no, let's do the tattoos, they look really good!' " the Scottish actor joked when quizzed about the long makeup process he endures. "I hope maybe that if there's a sequel, that some strange mutant accident can have taken place and Nightcrawler will have no tattoos — and will be white!"
He did point out that the Nightcrawler getup is not without its "advantages."
"When I don't have the full tail I [wear] this little stub thing," he said. "And that's quite popular with the ladies."
In addition to introducing Nightcrawler, the villainous Lady Deathstrike and the flame-controlling Pyro (see " 'X-Men 2′ More Mutant-Packed Than Original" ), "X2″ promises to delve more deeply into some old favorites.
"At the end of the first movie, [Wolverine's] going to track down his past, which is very much what this movie is about," Jackman said. "It doesn't come to a complete resolution, but it gets pretty damn close. He's, in a way, emotionally at a crisis point. So it's more internal. You get a more internal look at the character, and that's been really fun. For a movie such as this — if you want to call it an action movie, a comic-book movie — all of the characters have dimension beyond what you would expect."
"Rogue has left a lot of the shy, timid shutting-everyone-out out, because she has been accepted into a group where she is not an outsider or gonna be treated differently or poorly because of her mutant abilities," Paquin explained of her character's development. "She doesn't need to be rescued. She's not the damsel in distress anymore. It's fun. There's a lot more action-y kind of stuff I get to do."
"[Iceman] gets brought into the fold a little bit," Ashmore added. "He's still a student at the school. But I think his role in the film is to join the group and to become a more important part of the whole adventure that happens."
"With the same opportunities, perhaps we will see [Professor Xavier] develop as richly as Jean-Luc [Picard] did," Stewart observed half-jokingly, prompting Singer to show off the "Star Trek: Nemesis" T-shirt he was wearing. With a wide smile, he added that both Xavier and Picard could "kick Captain Kirk's ass!"
While there are currently numerous comic-book adaptations in production (see "Flying Half-Amphibian With Pointy Ears Lands Movie Deal" ), the original "X-Men" film really got the ball rolling. Everyone involved insists that the success of "Spider-Man" (see " 'Spider-Man' Breaks Box-Office Record" ) has done nothing to alter "X2″'s course.
"The 'X-Men' movies, particularly this one, which is a bit darker and a bit edgier than the previous one, [are] a little different than 'Spider-Man,' " Singer observed. "It's also a universe, unlike 'Spider-Man,' that has a specific fanbase that's very strong. And then it has another group that has no idea what 'X-Men' is beyond the movie, whereas 'Spider-Man' is part of the common lexicon. My mother knows what 'Spider-Man' is. … Our tone and that reality make us a very different kind of comic-book adaptation.
"I hate to draw comparisons to other films," he later elaborated, "but a little like the way that 'The Empire Strikes Back' explored people's frailties and weaknesses and also the potential weakness of the group and their triumph over 'evildoers,' this film's like that kind of story. So you get to see everybody's weaker side. Both Xavier and Magneto are cut from a similar cloth and both of them are not entirely right or wrong. That's why I decided to have Magneto back in the story. That's what's interesting, is that they are not as different as you might think."
Fox Studios, which is also behind the currently-in-post-production "Daredevil" adaptation (see "Affleck, Garner Open Up About 'Daredevil' " ), plans to unleash "X2″ on May 2, 2003.

I am learning about the wonders of JdbcTemplate and NamedParameterJdbcTemplate. I like what I see, but is there any easy way to see the underlying SQL that it ends up executing? I'd like to see this for debug purposes (in order to for example debug the resulting SQL in an outside tool).
The Spring documentation tells that they're logged at DEBUG level:
In XML terms, you need to configure the logger something like as
This subject was however discussed here a month ago and it seems not as easy to get to work as in Hibernate and/or it didn't return the expected information: argh - can't get spring to log sql This topic under each suggests to use P6Spy which can also be integrated in Spring according this article.
This works for me with org.springframework.jdbc-3.0.6.RELEASE.jar. I could not find this anywhere in the Spring docs (maybe I'm just lazy) but I found (trial and error) that the TRACE level did the magic.
I'm using log4j-1.2.15 along with slf4j (1.6.4) and properties file to configure the log4j:
This displays both the SQL statement and bound parameters like this:
Not sure about the SQL type unknown but I guess we can ignore it here
For just an SQL (i.e. if you're not interested in bound parameter values)
Parameter values seem to be printed on TRACE level. This worked for me:
Console output:
I'm not 100% sure what you're getting at since usually you will pass in your SQL queries (parameterized or not) to the JdbcTemplate, in which case you would just log those. If you have

Erin's Christmas Must-Have #9!
My must have #9 clean teeth. Ok I might have a little too much fun brushing but it feel therapeutic at times. And you may say "Erin, are you crazy? Who wants a toothbrush" And I'm with you on that you stick a regular brush in a stocking prepare to duck when your kid opens it. But who doesn't love a really amazing toothbrush and its the type of thing its easy to want but sometimes we won't budget for ourselves.
I used to have a Sonicare and the charger got lost so I have been trying other kinds of brushes both manual and electric but something was always missing. Then this little heart breaker the Philips Sonicare DiamondClean entered my life and it was love at first brush. First off it comes in black? A black toothbrush? My signature color now in a brush, swooning.
But don't let the cool new color options fool you there is much more to this brush.This high tech electric toothbrush has an elegant, modern look the handle has a nice heft to it feels more like ceramic then plastic. And boy does she clean, it has 5 different mode to clean even whitening and gum care! And recharging is a breeze just by drop it into its heavyweight glass tumbler or via its USB-powered case when you're traveling. For the clean freak or techie in your life they will love this gift. Now excuse me I need to go brush my teeth.
Philips Sonicare DiamondClean 219.99 – Black, White and Pink (NEW color, launched August'14)

The sleek black makes it the perfect addition to any dad's bathroom sink and the new pink color is a great choice for the girly-girl on your list.
Ok so I might be a brushing addict. You can ask Jocelyn after being friends for almost 30 years even she thinks I am crazy how much I like to brush my teeth. My secret I hate to floss. My teeth are crowded on the bottom which becomes floss tug of war then I win when it slams into my gums making me wince. Not so much fun.
When I heard about the Sonicare AirFloss I was intrigued. Could it keep my from lying to my dentist about supposed religious flossing habits and get the little buggers clean? I love it. I can fill the chamber with water or mouthwash (my fav) and just line it up between my teeth and push the button.A burst of air sends the liquid between my teeth removing plaque and food brushing left behind. And using it with mouthwash leaves my mouth feeling super fresh and clean. The AirFloss is as fun to use as it is functional. And who doesn't love a clean mouth?

The College routinely collects and analyzes data to inform practices that support deep learning and the successful accomplishment of Pomona's educational mission. Research on the student experience revolves around a core set of institutional and general education goals.
Institutional Learning Goals
Through close faculty, staff, and student interactions within a residential community, Pomona College seeks to produce graduates who possess:
- A depth and breadth of knowledge and the agility of mind to make connections within and across disciplines;
- The capacity to find, identify, and pursue their intellectual passions; and
- A commitment to employ their knowledge and skills as leaders, scholars, artists, citizens and custodians of the natural environment....to bear their added riches in trust for humankind.
Goals for General Education
Upon completion of the general education requirements, Pomona students should be able to:
- Critical Inquiry: Engage the work and ideas of others; articulate nuanced, reflective positions and present them in a sustained, persuasive manner to a specific imagined audience;
- Foreign Language: Communicate in a language other than English with basic proficiency in reading, writing, and speaking;
- Physical Education: Experience physical activity and appreciate its relationship to health and wellness;
- Area 1: Analyze, create or perform works of the human imagination, critically examining form, style, content, and meaning;
- Area 2: Study the organization of societies and the factors that motivate the actions of human beings, as individuals and as creators of communities and institutions;

The Giorgio Armani Visor of Splendor Award: Nick Foles
One positive that we can take away from this game is that Nick Foles was sporting an awesome new clear visor. That is great news for any of you who have ever created yourself in Madden and given yourself all the sweet accessories, like elbow bands, the "RB Bull" facemask, low-cut socks, eye paint, tattoos, and of course, a visor. Kudos to you, Nick Foles. You always look cooler in a visor.
The Jerry Rice Award for Receiving Dominance: Jeff Maehl
In the Eagles' final drive that slashed the Broncos' commanding 39 point lead to a much more tenuous 32 point nail-biter, Jeff Maehl caught two passes from Nick Foles, including a TD score. It's hard to say if Maehl is talented enough to compete for more playing time or if he was just temporarily inspired by Nick Foles' visor, but I think it's fair to say that Jerry Rice is nervous that his receiving records are in jeopardy.
The "Screw You, Peyton Manning" Award: Peyton Manning
In the week leading up to this game, Peyton Manning complained that the Eagles had 12 days of rest and preparation for this game, while the Broncos only had 6. Shut up, Peyton. That's like Bill Gates complaining that the heated seats in his Bentley are set to 82 degrees, instead of the preferred 85.

Although we might take some flak from guitarists, we bassists know the truth: a band just wouldn't be the same without the deep, rumbling tones of the bass laying the foundation for everyone else. Any instrument can play a memorable tune, but it's up to the bass guitar to really put in the heartbeat and soul that separates a great song from an average one. Naturally, giving a great performance is all about being in touch with your instrument, and for that, you'll want to take a careful look at the basses here to find the one that fits you best.
First and foremost, it's hard to go wrong with the classics. Fender can definitely take the credit for making the bass guitar the instrument it is today, and with a Precision Bass or Jazz Bass from Fender or Squier, you can experience the sound and feel that laid the groundwork for all others. Of course, what those others have done with the bass guitar is nothing short of amazing, and you'll also find plenty of artisan axes here from the likes of Schecter, Rickenbacker, Warwick and more. The bottom line is choice: there's a bass to satisfy any player.
If you really want to distinguish yourself as a bassist, it can pay to think outside the box and go for something a bit less traditional. For example, there are musical styles and occasions where an electric bass may be slightly out of place. In those cases, you can turn to an acoustic-electric bass. These have a classic sound all their own, and if you're headed to a festival or singing around a campfire, they'll do the job even without an amplifier handy.
No matter how you choose to distinguish yourself - acoustic-electric, custom, signature model, extended range or the tried-and-true standbys - one thing that will never change is that music is a personal thing. Only you can decide which bass guitar belongs onstage and in the studio with you, so you've got every reason to check out all the instruments here: chances are you'll know the right one when you find it.
Bass Starting at: $109.99

But that could over complicate things, I'm not sure.
I really would look forward of this to the point where if I had the money to fund it I personally would, simply great epic work ^.^
Haha, thanks! Yeah, we're only up to Pewter City, and it's not even finished. We still have a LOT to do. Hehe.

Scrafty use Dragon Break-Dance!
Krueger the excadrill, Manfred the emolga, Lillian the leavanny, Lulu the mienshao, Isaac the reuniclus are the ones in those Poke balls underneath the Whimsicott aren't they?
I agree with you on dark type Pokemon Scrafty is the best
I can so see these on Pokemon cards! ;w;
The mega medicham looks great--I love the attack effects. Also love the expressions on the keckleon and sableye.
This is amazing, every single one of these is so vibrant!
If you had to turn into any...dark type pokemon for 1 day what would you choose?
That haunter is some nightmare fuel.....
They all look amazing but the Furrets were the ones I liked the most :3
oh man these are so brilliant and dynamic!!! Awesome work!
Keep On, Keep On, Keep On, Keep On Doing It!
Are You Happy On Your Own?
Keep On, Keep On, Keep On, Keep On Doing It!

What's your 2nd Favourite Fire Type?
What's your 2nd Favourite Electric Type?
So pwetty *u*
my favourite (and most badass) fight/steel Pokemon is Lucario and his mega evolution! xD
I am soo gonna do this..
the haunter gave me nightmares... Great job!
Haunter <3
You are so incredibly talented!
Just want you to know you inspired me to start the challenge too! fav.me/d77mh9o
Has anyone ever told you that you are an awesome drawer?
That Phantump looks like Madotsuki.
This is so beautiful! Everyone of them! Great job!
I really like the Haunter with Curse. It's creepy in a really cool way.
Yes. YES.
Oh my goodness
Left me speechless.
Oh my goodness
Left me speechless.
I might have came off as insulting your choice of starter, I'm not trying to change your opinion nor insulting it! I actually like your choice... so ya
Odd choice with favorite starter, most hate her/him but I'm glad you didn't choose Charizard/Charmander! My personal favorite starter(s) is:
Gen 1. Blastoise
Gen 2. Typhlosion
Gen 3. Swampert
Gen 4. Infernape
Gen 5. The fire type (I never owned any of the 5th gen games)
Gen 6. Greninja
your work is awesome ;v;
My favourite Pokemon is Aipom
This is awesome. And here I thought you couldn't get any more impressive!
What is your favorite type? I have been wondering...
Wow, brilliant! These attack poses absolutely rock, every one of them!
Excellent motion blur on the ledian and hitmontop, they look lethally swift! The sand texture looks perfect on that flygon, and I love the scrafty and its vicious dragons!
That sure is one scary slurpluff! Ross is looking epic here sparking up, as is Veruka in her blaze. I think Marlowe and his nonchalant, mildly irritated expression as he's bombarded by a draco meteor is absolutely hilarious, probably my favourite part of this piece. And that poor li'l phantump looks awfully baleful. I like the mysterious little forest enigma thing it's got going on.
Pick and Rick look adorable, as does that sweet swoobat. And that vileplume. That thing's got so much edge! Tipping its petal like Carmen Sandiego with the brim of her hat, as poison powder fills the air in swirls around it, penetrating its opponents' immune systems! This thing's a nasty one!
You've sure made dedenne look cute with its big ol' cheeks. And my goodness, that medicham... I'd like to see anyone defy you that medicham is the best mega after looking at this thing sitting in front of its psychadelic background, its scarves surrounding it like the arms of a Hindu god. I always thought medicham and alakazam had cool megas, and I think you've enforced that opinion tenfold here!
That's one sweet joltik sitting there grinning on its web of luminescent tendrils! And the haunter and honchkrow sure looks scary! The black gore coming from haunter's curse wound is chill-inducing, and man, I don't know if Matthew knows steel wing, but looking at that honchkrow makes me hope he doesn't! Yikes!
Also, I like that you included both your favourites to avoid an award snub. Danny and RGB are always awesome.
Greninja and Haunchkrow are my favorite!

This nuvi works just as well vertically as it does horizontally.
Garmin's nüvi 66LM portable navigator — part of their Essential Series — offers a well-rounded feature set for intrepid travelers. Not only does it boast a panoramic 6" display that works in horizontal and vertical orientations, it also features maps of all 50 states, plus Canada and several major Caribbean Islands. You'll also have millions of preloaded points of interest at your disposal for when it's time to make a pit stop.
You can keep the nüvi 66LM's maps current with free lifetime map updates for as long as you own the navigator, so you don't have to worry about road changes or moved businesses in the future. The big 6" screen — and this is Garmin's first navigator with a display of this size — ensures you'll see every detail clearly from the driver's seat. And you can manually adjust the screen orientation by 90 degrees, if you prefer a lengthwise view that's more in line with your smartphone display. The nüvi's slim profile ensures it won't take up too much real estate, and the advanced rear mount will keep it firmly in place on your windshield.
This Garmin announces actual street names at turns, so you'll hear "turn left on Rugby Avenue" instead of "take the next left." Colored arrows pop up as you approach complicated interchanges and junctions, showing you the the proper lane for the next maneuver. To keep you oriented, you'll always have a text reminder of which street you're on.
Garmin's improved search function finds the correct destination through addresses and points of interest quickly and accurately. Speed limit displays with visual warnings on major roads help keep you in check, and you'll even be notified of school zones with audible and visual cues. And with one tap of the screen, Garmin's Up Ahead display will pull up details for services that lie ahead, including restaurants, gas stations, and more — all without leaving the map screen.
You'll always be aware of upcoming services with the Up Ahead display, located on the right of the screen.
This Garmin's compatible with the optional Garmin BC 30 wireless rear-view camera, so you can add an extra layer of safety when you're backing out of your driveway. The "Where Am I?" emergency locator provides your exact location instantly, displaying nearby emergency services if you need aid. Garmin's trip computer lets you plan trips and record mileage, maximum speed, total time, and more. The Garmin Express software suite found at Garmin's website allows you to update maps and software, transfer favorites to and from devices, and customize your vehicle icon and spoken voices. The nüvi 66LM also lets you assign custom points of interest so you can find favorite stops that are a little off the beaten path.
A portable navigator eliminates the issue of phone coverage. You don't use data, and you always have maps - even when your phone has no (or slow) service. The maps in a portable navigator are superior to your phone's maps, as are the turn-by-turn directions. Modern GPS navigators have larger screens than most phones, so it's easier to see the map at a glance. Navigators with 3D maps really help you orient yourself quickly in urban areas. If you've got a lead foot, most navigators can also warn you when you are exceeding the speed limit.
An improvement over earlier versions and functions well.
Pros: Large screen is easier to read and has fast satellite acquisition.
Cons: Larger screen consumes more power. Really need to buy a wall plug in charger. Product manual is skimpy. Product should be shipped with protective case carrier. latest map update has errors on speed limits on certain highways.
I purchased the Garmin Because it had better functionality than typical factory installed units at considerably lower cost. I bought two new cars in the last 8 months and it made better sense to buy a single portable unit. I am much happier with the ability to,have a device that can be programmed by a passenger in the car while in motion rather than having to stop to accomplish a change.
Pros: Large, easy to read screen as big or bigger than factory options. More intuitive to program. Free map updates. Portability.
Cons: USB power cable is really too short, cannot be used with the USB port location in either of my vehicles. Winshield suction cup mount is inconvenient, a tall person would need to remove the GPS from the windshield to program it because of the seating position relative to the windshield. For me, that meant buying an aftermarket mounting.Obviously, the portability is a bit of a drawback due to the need to put the device out of sight when parked or risk losing it.

General Features
Navigation Features
Overview: The Garmin nüvi 66LM, part of the Essential Series, is a portable GPS navigation device that provides automatic routing and turn-by-turn voice directions. The unit receives data from overhead global positioning satellites, not cellular signals, for reliable navigation directions.
6" Touchscreen LCD: The nüvi 66LM features a 6", dual-orientation, color TFT touchscreen LCD with a resolution of 800 x 480 pixels. The screen can be viewed in either landscape or portrait orientation, and can be switched in the Settings Menu.
Preloaded Maps: The nüvi 66LM contains NAVTEQ's City Navigator North America NT 2014 US & Canada maps with detailed road maps of the United States (including Alaska and Hawaii), Canada, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, The Bahamas, French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Saint Barthélemy, and Jamaica. The maps include more than 10-million points of interest (POIs) to help you find the destination you desire.
Note: Maps of Mexico are not included. Optional maps are available for this device via microSD card, download, or DVD directly from Garmin.com.
nüMaps Guarantee: If you register your device on Garmin's website within 90 days of acquiring satellites while driving, you can check to see if a free map update is available. You must be able to connect your device via a high-speed internet connection in order to check the loaded map version and download the map update.
Free Lifetime Map Updates: The nüvi 66LM offers free lifetime map updates (of the preloaded map software) so you'll always have the most up-to-date maps, POIs, and navigation information. Map updates are available for download up to 4 times a year with no subscription or update fees and no expiration dates. Free Lifetime Map Updates are subject to Terms & Conditions.
Garmin Express: You can connect the unit to your computer with the supplied USB cable for downloading map updates, custom POIs, voices, and vehicles. You will need to download the Garmin Express software to update your maps and register the unit. Garmin Express requires Windows Vista or newer or Mac OS X 10.7 or higher, running in 64-bit.
microSD Card Slot: The nüvi 66LM has a microSD card slot so you can store and use optional maps (available from Garmin), or download custom voices and vehicles from the Garmin Garage.
Universal Mount: The nüvi 66LM features a new universal mount that holds the unit securely in place, but can be easily removed. The circular Universal Bracket mount clips into the socket on the back of the unit, and fits the ball mount found on Garmin windshield and dash mounts.
Power Requirements: The Garmin nüvi 66LM is powered by a built-in Lithium-Ion battery, which will provide up to 1 hour of use when fully charged. The unit comes with a 12-volt cigarette lighter power adapter for powering and charging the unit while you travel. An optional AC adapter allows you to operate the unit on ordinary household current. The unit can be powered by your computer when it is connected via the supplied mini-B USB cable.
Points of Interest: The built-in maps include over 10-million Points of Interest (POIs) such as hotels, restaurants, gas stations, attractions, and ATMs. In addition, you can download additional points of interest and add them to the unit's memory (Custom POIs). The free POI Loader software can be downloaded from the Garmin website to assist you in creating Custom POIs.
Map View Options: You can choose from a 3D map view or two 2D map views (Track Up or North Up) as you navigate to your destination.
Speed Limits: As you travel along a major road or street, the speed limit is displayed on the screen alongside of the vehicle's speed display. If you are exceeding the speed limit, the color of the vehicle speed indication changes to red. If the highway's posted speed limit has changed since the last map update, you can change the speed limit display on the unit.
Where Am I?: The "Where Am I?" feature gives you instant access to important information in case of an emergency. When you touch the vehicle icon on the map screen, the "Where Am I?" feature provides the coordinates (including elevation) of your current position, plus the nearest address and intersections. There are also buttons to help you locate the nearest hospitals, police stations, gas stations, and roadside assistance. You can also save the location for future reference.
Up Ahead: As you travel along your route, the Up Ahead feature constantly indicates the location of nearby businesses, including gas, food, lodging, restrooms, parking, and banks and ATMs. The locations are shown as icons, some with brand logos, and when the icons are touched on the screen, details of the services are displayed, and you are given the opportunity to navigate to that address.
Garmin Locate: To assist you in finding your parked vehicle, the Garmin Locate feature saves your location to memory when you remove the device from the windshield mounting cradle while the device is on. You can search for your vehicle's location using the Last Spot button in the menu.
Destination Search: When the Where To? button is pressed, you can use the search tools to find your destination and plan your route. The search tools allow you to search for cities, addresses, intersections, or coordinates. The new Search Bar lets you directly enter a category, brand name, address, or city name. The unit's memory stores the last 50 locations you have found so you can quickly find a previous destination.
Garmin Garage: The unit offers your choice of eight standard icons to represent your vehicle. The online Garmin Garage offers dozens more vehicle icons that you can download for free. In addition, you can purchase icon and voice bundles with Star Wars (Yoda, Darth Vader), Sesame Street (Oscar, Cookie Monster, Ernie & Bert), and The Simpsons (Homer and Marge) themes, among others.
Trip Planner: You can create and save a trip with multiple destinations using the Trip Planner. Once you have entered your destinations, you can manually set them in the order of your preference, or allow the device to calculate the most efficient route. Trip itineraries can be saved in memory for future use.
Trip Computer: The trip information page displays your current speed and direction, and provides helpful statistics about your trip. Dual trip odometers keep up with your total mileage. The page also indicates the distance and driving time to your next maneuver, as well as the distance and driving time to your destination. Your maximum speed and moving average speed are also displayed. The information can be reset in advance of your next trip.
Where I've Been/Trip Log: The Where I've Been application allows you to view your previous routes and places you have stopped on the map. In addition, the device keeps a Trip Log, which is a record of the path you have traveled. The Travel History setting must be enabled in order for the Where I've Been and Trip Log features to function.
myTrends: The myTrends feature takes into account your personal driving habits and anticipates your route when calculating your ETA to your frequent destinations. This feature does not work out of the box at first, but is most effective after 2-3 weeks of regular usage.
GPS Simulator: When indoors, you can activate the built-in GPS simulator and practice using the unit. This turns off the GPS receiver so it's not searching for satellites, saving battery power.
ecoRoute: The optional ecoRoute feature calculates the fuel economy and the fuel price of navigating to a destination, and offers tools for improving fuel efficiency. The ecoRoute application can be purchased from the Garmin Online Store.
At Crutchfield, you'll get detailed, accurate information that's hard to find elsewhere. That's because we have our own in-house Product Research team. They verify what's in the box, check the owner's manual, and record dimensions, features and specs. We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices.

The Burlington County Times Editorial Board has feverishly clambered aboard the Obama bandwagon to join in its foray to bash U.S. corporations: "Corporate Deserters" (July 30).
The basis for such bashing is in retaliation against U.S. companies that have the temerity to attempt to limit their tax burden, which, at 40 percent, is the highest in the developed world. It seems they have a perfectly legal basis for doing so, called "inversion." This legal process essentially shifts the corporate tax address to a subsidiary overseas, where the tax rate may be only 25 or 30 percent.

Fenstermaker, an 18-year veteran healthcare chief financial officer, speaks from experience. He "grew up under capitation," and says much of reform is simply capitation under another name.
The difference this time, he says, is that in the '90's, only part of the reimbursement system was capitated. Government-based reimbursement was largely uncapitated—especially for physicians who, when working in the hospital, were paid fee-for-service, while DRG-based payments introduced some capitation to the hospital payment portion. All of this is to say that incentives weren't aligned.
They're still not, he argues, which is why as they become more aligned through payment incentives, leaders still have the difficult determination of how to change work processes just quickly enough to keep up with the staggered pace of change among payers.
"If you move too quickly to behave as if you're capitated and the rest of the world is fee-for-service, you go broke," he says flatly. In the same breath, however, he says, "but I think there's a way."
