SQLAlchemy unit tests by default run using Python's built-in sqlite3
module. If running on Python 2.4, pysqlite must be installed.
Unit tests are run using nose. Note that in most cases,
nose needs to be installed manually. Documentation and
downloads for nose are available at:
Or using setuptools:
$ easy_install nose
SQLAlchemy implements a nose plugin that must be present when tests are run.
This plugin is available when SQLAlchemy is installed via setuptools.
A plain vanilla run of all tests using sqlite can be run via setup.py:
$ python setup.py test
(NOTE: this command is broken for Python 2.7 with nose 0.11.3, see
Nose issue 340. You will need to use 'nosetests' directly, see below.)
Setuptools will take care of the rest ! To run nose directly and have
its full set of options available, read on...
All that's required is for SQLAlchemy to be installed via setuptools.
For example, to create a local install in a source distribution directory:
$ export PYTHONPATH=.
$ python setup.py develop -d .
The above will create a setuptools "development" distribution in the local
path, which allows the Nose plugin to be available when nosetests is run.
The plugin is enabled using the "with-sqlalchemy=True" configuration
in setup.cfg.
To run all tests:
$ nosetests
(NOTE: if running with Python 2.7 and nose 0.11.3, add "-w test/" to the command.
Again this is a Nose issue, see Nose issue 342.)
If you're running the tests on Microsoft Windows, then there is an additional
argument that must be passed to nosetests:
> nosetests --first-package-wins=True
This is required because nose's importer will normally evict a package from
sys.modules if it sees a package with the same name in a different location.
Setting this argument disables that behavior.
Assuming all tests pass, this is a very unexciting output. To make it more
$ nosetests -v
The script "sqla_nose.py" is a front-end to Nose which manually associates
the SQLAlchemy testing plugin with Nose at runtime. This script can run the
tests without any reliance upon setuptools. In 0.7 we'll be removing the
Nose plugin from setup, so this will be the way going forward to run tests:
$ python sqla_nose.py -v
Any directory of test modules can be run at once by specifying the directory
$ nosetest test/dialect
Any test module can be run directly by specifying its module name:
$ nosetests test.orm.test_mapper
To run a specific test within the module, specify it as module:ClassName.methodname:
$ nosetests test.orm.test_mapper:MapperTest.test_utils
Help is available via --help:
$ nosetests --help
The --help screen is a combination of common nose options and options which
the SQLAlchemy nose plugin adds. The most commonly SQLAlchemy-specific
options used are '--db' and '--dburi'.
Tests will target an in-memory SQLite database by default. To test against
another database, use the --dburi option with any standard SQLAlchemy URL:
Use an empty database and a database user with general DBA privileges.
The test suite will be creating and dropping many tables and other DDL, and
preexisting tables will interfere with the tests.
Several tests require alternate usernames or schemas to be present, which
are used to test dotted-name access scenarios. On some databases such
as Oracle or Sybase, these are usernames, and others such as Postgresql
and MySQL they are schemas. The requirement applies to all backends
except SQLite and Firebird. The names are:
test_schema_2 (only used on Postgresql)
Please refer to your vendor documentation for the proper syntax to create
these namespaces - the database user must have permission to create and drop
tables within these schemas. Its perfectly fine to run the test suite
without these namespaces present, it only means that a handful of tests which
expect them to be present will fail.
Additional steps specific to individual databases are as follows:
ORACLE: a user named "test_schema" is created.
The primary database user needs to be able to create and drop tables,
synonyms, and constraints within the "test_schema" user. For this
to work fully, including that the user has the "REFERENCES" role
in a remote shcema for tables not yet defined (REFERENCES is per-table),
it is required that the test the user be present in the "DBA" role:
grant dba to scott;
SYBASE: Similar to Oracle, "test_schema" is created as a user, and the
primary test user needs to have the "sa_role".
It's also recommened to turn on "trunc log on chkpt" and to use a
separate transaction log device - Sybase basically seizes up when
the transaction log is full otherwise.
A full series of setup assuming sa/master:
disk init name="translog", physname="/opt/sybase/data/translog.dat", size="10M"
create database sqlalchemy on default log on translog="10M"
sp_dboption sqlalchemy, "trunc log on chkpt", true
sp_addlogin scott, "tiger7"
sp_addlogin test_schema, "tiger7"
use sqlalchemy
sp_adduser scott
sp_adduser test_schema
grant all to scott
sp_role "grant", sa_role, scott
Sybase will still freeze for up to a minute when the log becomes
full. To manually dump the log:
dump tran sqlalchemy with truncate_only
MSSQL: Tests that involve multiple connections require Snapshot Isolation
ability implented on the test database in order to prevent deadlocks that
will occur with record locking isolation. This feature is only available
with MSSQL 2005 and greater. You must enable snapshot isolation at the
database level and set the default cursor isolation with two SQL commands:
ALTER DATABASE MyDatabase SET ALLOW_SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION ON
ALTER DATABASE MyDatabase SET READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT ON
MSSQL+zxJDBC: Trying to run the unit tests on Windows against SQL Server
requires using a test.cfg configuration file as the cmd.exe shell won't
properly pass the URL arguments into the nose test runner.
If you'll be running the tests frequently, database aliases can save a lot of
typing. The --dbs option lists the built-in aliases and their matching URLs:
$ nosetests --dbs
Available --db options (use --dburi to override)
mysql mysql://scott:email@example.com:3306/test
oracle oracle://scott:firstname.lastname@example.com:1521
postgresql postgresql://scott:firstname.lastname@example.com:5432/test
To run tests against an aliased database:
$ nosetests --db=postgresql
To customize the URLs with your own users or hostnames, make a simple .ini
file called `test.cfg` at the top level of the SQLAlchemy source distribution
or a `.satest.cfg` in your home directory:
Your custom entries will override the defaults and you'll see them reflected
in the output of --dbs.
SQLAlchemy logs its activity and debugging through Python's logging package.
Any log target can be directed to the console with command line options, such
$ nosetests test.orm.unitofwork --log-info=sqlalchemy.orm.mapper \
--log-debug=sqlalchemy.pool --log-info=sqlalchemy.engine
This would log mapper configuration, connection pool checkouts, and SQL
statement execution.
Coverage is tracked using Nose's coverage plugin. See the nose
documentation for details. Basic usage is:
$ nosetests test.sql.test_query --with-coverage
BIG COVERAGE TIP !!! There is an issue where existing .pyc files may
store the incorrect filepaths, which will break the coverage system. If
coverage numbers are coming out as low/zero, try deleting all .pyc files.
You can use the SQLAlchemy test suite to test any new database dialect in
development. All possible database features will be exercised by default.
Test decorators are provided that can exclude unsupported tests for a
particular dialect. You'll see them all over the source, feel free to add
your dialect to them or apply new decorations to existing tests as required.
It's fine to start out with very broad exclusions, e.g. "2-phase commit is not
supported on this database" and later refine that as needed "2-phase commit is
not available until server version 8".
To be considered for inclusion in the SQLAlchemy distribution, a dialect must
be integrated with the standard test suite. Dialect-specific tests can be
placed in the 'dialects/' directory. Comprehensive testing of
database-specific column types and their proper reflection are a very good
place to start.
When working through the tests, start with 'engine' and 'sql' tests. 'engine'
performs a wide range of transaction tests that might deadlock on a brand-new
dialect- try disabling those if you're having problems and revisit them later.
Once the 'sql' tests are passing, the 'orm' tests should pass as well, modulo
any adjustments needed for SQL features the ORM uses that might not be
available in your database. But if an 'orm' test requires changes to your
dialect or the SQLAlchemy core to pass, there's a test missing in 'sql'! Any
time you can spend boiling down the problem to it's essential sql roots and
adding a 'sql' test will be much appreciated.
The test suite is very effective at illuminating bugs and inconsistencies in
an underlying DB-API (or database!) implementation. Workarounds are almost
always possible. If you hit a wall, join us on the mailing list or, better,

Is power becoming hip?
IEEE outreach might expand your thinking
The SXSW—formerly known as the South-by-Southwest Festival—kicks off in Austin, Texas, tomorrow and you're already wondering—why is that fact being mentioned in a power industry column at all? After all, that annual confab is where bands go to get a record deal, right?
Well, the point here is that SXSW has morphed into a music and film festival that also leverages the forward-looking, diverse, socially conscious interests of its performers, participants and audience to interact around a multiplicity of ideas and mutual interests.
For a columnist whose only notion of "hip" is that it's part of the human anatomy, I had to have the advantages of this fact explained to me. But once Jay Iorio, technology strategist for the IEEE's Standards Association, explained it to me, it was both brilliant and painfully obvious (notions that are not contradictory, I'd venture).
We just featured an "Industry Expert" column by Wanda Reder, chair of IEEE Smart Grid and immediate past president of IEEE's Power and Energy Society (PES), who is working to attract engineering students to work in grid modernization.
Iorio is taking a different tack by heading to SXSW to converse with like-minded people in an emerging technology field that includes virtual worlds, gaming, simulated realities, etc. I had a brief conversation with Iorio yesterday and will simply run some of his thoughts past you, if only to jog your thinking. Not everyone involved in creating a smarter grid will come from the academic ranks of electrical engineering. It's very likely that many third parties will be involved on some level with utilities, with vendors or with customers in some way that could benefit from Iorio's approach.
"My purpose is to attract people to the IEEE-SA for this new, interdisciplinary area, one that involves the arts, military simulations, really a whole spectrum of activities that conceptually are allied," Iorio told me. "I'm trying to create a new community. Judging from the hugely diverse set of people at South-By-Southwest last year and the imaginative discussions that I had, I'm confident that I'll find some people for this new group I'm creating and get them interested in the IEEE's activities."
Hmmm. Gather free thinkers from outside your specific bailiwick and see how they might collaborate on problem-solving relevant to your challenges.
"The thinking behind my effort is that a lot of fields are coming together," Iorio said. "They're separate now, but not really. From the point of view of the underlying technologies, they're all pieces of the same animal. Computer-generated cinema, interactive television and media, 3-D in all of its forms—augmented reality, virtual worlds. There's no real name for this area, thought it has been referred to as 'new media,' 'advanced media.' So I'm trying to create a community that doesn't realize that it's a community."
When you consider the oft-cited convergence of IT, telecom and power, transferring Iorio's mission to one involving the power industry's interests isn't a big leap.
"I found last year that with the South-by-Southwest crowd, I got the most excitement out of them when they thought in terms of helping society," Iorio said. "It's really a very idealistic crowd. When I talked about how work in this new field could transform society with all its applications, that's when I saw the spark in their eyes and found them really engaged. So I look forward this year to getting people involved in a specific subject.
"My specialty is this virtual stuff," Iorio continued. "But I've got people working on smart grid, for example. The Internet of things. The same principles apply to all of those. We want imaginative thinkers to serve as the engine for all these activities.
"The 'Internet of Things' is a clumsy term, but the smart grid is a part of that," he added. "I'd like to attract general thinkers who see the smart grid as a piece of a ubiquitous Internet, for lack of a better term—the fact that the entire environment becomes intelligent to some extent. That includes power, water and things we haven't even thought of yet. Clearly, electricity is the backbone of the IEEE."
The IEEE and the power industry are somewhat analogous, in that the IEEE, for instance, "was a stodgy thing of the past," Iorio said, warming to his thesis. And now the IEEE and its related vertical industries are becoming "the hippest areas because they involve all those transformative technologies."
"It's like the 'hip-icization' of the IEEE and the power industry," Iorio said, chuckling at his newly minted term.
Who knew a music and film festival could turn into a socially conscious movement leveraging technology to transform society? Especially with beer in hand.
But I really liked Iorio's fresh thinking around recruitment for imaginative problem solving and future-shaping. Why not wade into gatherings of young people with myriad backgrounds and talents and see what this low-budget, high-touch approach might yield? Maybe the power industry's myriad players would find that a similar strategy would bear fruit.

Intelligent Utility Daily
Simple Energy at SXSWi
Maybe it's because Simple Energy focuses on the utility-customer relationship or because we're equal parts social startup and energy services company, but going to SXSWi was a "no brainer" for us.
We go to other conferences with more utility decision makers and sessions on industry best practices. But, SXSWi is the only conference that gives us direct insight into leading edge consumer-engagement techniques and exposure to the tools that will prove invaluable for our utility customers.
Both Twitter and Foursquare were introduced to the world at SXSWi in recent years -- and many of the most influencial people in consumer technology will be there. And so will we.
If you're going down to Austin this weekend, let us know -- we'd love to discuss the intersection between social technology and utility customer engagement.
Yoav Lurie, CEO, Simple Energy | Email | Twitter | Web
See you at SXSW!
Hey Phil, thanks for this great article! We're excited for the energy industry to become more "hip" and we hope to see Mr. Iorio at SXSW - we'll be hosting a party with a bunch of other TechStars folks on Friday evening if anyone wants to come! Details in the first link on our blog post about your article today: http://utilities.simpleenergy.com/simple-energy-at-sxsw-is-power-becoming-hip
Hiring the Right Talent
Having held several utility operational manager positions which included engineers, professionals, and technicians, hiring was always one of the key responsibilities listed under "and other duties" in the manager's job description. A strategic message I continue to deliver to utility executives is to look at replacing the intellectual knowledge before it walks out the door. For many utilities that have not recognized this issue, they are already behind the eight ball.
<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
To find good and qualified talent for utility positions is more than just having engineering or IT skills. The majority of the workforces in utilities work outside of the IT departments. Most utility workers are tied to some central control center with some form of handheld or portable computers. They are required to be skilled utility engineers or technicians along with continually developing more technology knowhow. Most utility vehicles have some form of real-time or near real-time linked communications.
The mindset of the utility worker is typically different than many of those who only work in an IT environment. The typical utility worker has to have some customer interaction skills no matter what their position. All can come in direct contact with customers during their normal work day. With the advancement of technology in the utility industry, they are also required to have more and more technical skills as well. A big differentiator is the ability to be real-world practical. They need to understand that what works on a test bench may not work well in the real environment. That is usually a training issue for engineers and technicians alike.
Many of the best replacement candidates are the children of existing utility workers. They have seen their parents leave home at all hours to serve customers who are out of power, natural gas, or water. They work nights, weekends and holidays. The utility industry runs 24x7. Many of the jobs are in hostile environments or carried out on the property of the customers. This job requirement quickly eliminates many people who are not comfortable or desire not to work under these conditions.
You have to think out of the box and look under every stone. The utility industry is behind the eight ball and qualified talent is leaving faster than they can train new replacements. A major untapped source is the returning military vets. They are use to working in hostile environments, many have good customer interaction skills, and they are technology savvy. One of their biggest assets is their dependability. This requirement cannot be over stated in today's work environment. Utilities should be leading the charge in hiring this tremendous resource.

Touched a nerve
Good morning and thanks for these thoughtful comments. I'm going to have to report directly from the SXSW Festival next year.... You know thingss have changed when an originally music festival now has "tracks"....
Sounds like a couple strains of thought here. One, utilities will never change ("hide-and-seek for $2,000" -- heck, I'd take that deal), but face the music as the world changes more rapidly. Another is that the third party energy service providers will get between the G & T operators and create the customer-facing world that utilities cannot muster. Also, that local generation, probably distributed energy resources (solar, wind, storage) will get small end-users closer to net zero status, with the grid for backup.
The wheels are in motion. Literally, on the EV front. Which, ironically, some utilities view as their ace in the hole. If the transportation fleet gets electrified, that may be a huge boon to centralized power.
Just a few thoughts. Thanks to Mr. Iorio for sparking the conversation.
Regards, Phil Carson
The industry will have to change its image first
Utilities have always been perceived as the places to go if you want a steady paycheck, a nice defined-benefit pension, and not a lot of pressure on you during your workday. As one former utility apparatchik told me, "it's hide-and-seek for $2000 a week" (OK, that was a dozen years ago.) In General, utilities have not been the places where the future is invented, although some utilities have certainly been more innovative than others. The people who are tunneling under the utility walls are the ones doing the innovating. I've had no problem during the past twenty years recruiting top talent to various energy service startups. All I had to do was tell them that they would be building the "un-utility."
The old utility model, where everybody stayed happy as long as rates didn't rise to suddenly and the lights stayed on, is quickly being relegated to the ash heap of history. It's pretty clear that as a society we've failed to invest sufficiently in infrastructure, energy infrastruture in particular. We're likely to be going through a tumultuous transition from a relatively few large powerplants representing a few technology types to increasing numbers of smaller "greener" power sources of many different types. The transportation system is going to get more electrified. The world in general is going to get more electrified. Does anybody really thing Africans and South Asians are going to settle for anything less than people in the northern hemisphere have? We'll need more redundancy and fault-tolerance in our end-use points and in the distribution system. We'll need to figure out a way to pay for it all and provide people with choices comparagble to what they get from their cable provider or their cell phone company.
Finally, after more that a hundred years of being the stodgy business where little old ladies put their pension money to get a steady dividend, utilities are going to be exciting places to be, or they'll cease to exist as investor-owned companies. Like everything else on this planet, they will adapt and evolve--or die. A utility that recognizes that fact is one that will be able to lure people away from careers at Google or Goldman Sachs.
Can a Leopard Change its Spots?
To mix metaphors with an African theme this morning, the question on my lips after reading your Comment (well done, agree wholeheartedly with your perspective, as if I was looking in a mirror) represents the "Elephant in the Room" ... "Can a utility go from being the safe place to work, a bureaucracy where nothing new happens and its chief upside is a steady paycheck - to an exciting work environment where innovation is rewarded even encouraged? Can a leopard change its spots?" I'm reminded of the old Soviet joke - "They pretend to pay us and we pretend to work." But I'm dating myself...
I applaud the efforts of IEEE to go into the mosh pit that is SXSW - Phil, BTW, SXSW has three tracks: Music, Film, and Interactive (internet). I bet IEEE is involved with the Interactive track ...I view utilities as a 20th century model that will be replaced/complemented by 21st century energy service companies going forward. I think a small percentage of utilities will get it, but a large number will not. Call me pessimistic of IEE's efforts when applied to utilities, if the goal is to get young innovators to go work for utilities. But I support the objective and am more optimistic if young innovators go to work for energy service startups that combine the best of telecom, IT, internet, and distributed energy ... I believe that is an exciting path to the future, but one that only a handful of utilities will embrace.
For the sake of our existing investment in the grid, I hope I'm wrong and utilities step up with major efforts to change their culture and work environment by embracing risk, innovation, and the future ... but I'm not seeing it yet.

text: Home ŌåÆ News DESTINATIONS: Mohonk Mountain House a castle like no other (video, interactive slideshow) Mohonk Mountain House as seen from beneath the stone arch just off the back porch overlooking the lake. By PAULA ANN MITCHELL Posted: 01/27/13, 12:51 AM EST | Updated: on 01/27/2013 # Comments EDITOR'SĀNOTE:ĀThe Freeman's 'Destinations' takes a look at the touristic places that define the Hudson Valley and the Catskills. The occasional series is set to run the last Sunday of every month during 2013. Funny how some people don't appreciate what's in their backyard. A case in point is a recent poll that found more than half of New York City residents have never visited the metropolitan area's top tourist sites. About 55 percent said they've never been to Ellis Island or the Statue of Liberty, while 50 percent have never visited the famed Central Park or Rockefeller Center, according to the website www.city-data.com. Those who know the Mid-Hudson Valley best certainly hope that's not the case with the treasure trove of local attractions--most within a short drive. Those sites continue to bring guests in year-round, with more than 20 million visitors coming to the 10-county Hudson Valley region each year and spending $3 billion, notes the website www.iloveny.com. Advertisement Tourism in Ulster County is, in fact, the No. 1 industry, generating $450 million annually, according to the Ulster County Tourism department. That is why we'll be looking at some of the area's most spectacular tourist spots over the next 12 months, giving our readers an in-depth look at what makes the region so attractive to outsiders. We're calling the series "Destinations," and we begin with a stop at the Mohonk Mountain House, the award-winning, majestic castle resort perched upon the Shawangunk Ridge in New Paltz, an area originally occupied by the Delaware Indians. Ā ĀExperience the full-screen interactive slideshow. It was built by twin brothers Albert and Alfred Smiley, Quakers who visited the property on the shore of Lake Mohonk and envisioned a peaceful retreat where people could enjoy the beauty of nature in a spectacular setting. In 1869, the brothers bought 280 acres from John Stokes, a farmer, and the history of Mohonk Mountain House had begun. The brothers gradually added on to the inn, turning it into the grand house that it is today. Mohonk, a National Historic Landmark, is, by no accounts, an ordinary resort. It has hosted more than a century's worth of distinguished guests that have included five U.S. presidents--Chester A. Arthur, Rutherford B. Hayes, William Howard Taft, Theodore Roosevelt and Bill Clinton. Others over the years, including naturalists, theologians, award-winning actors, authors, artists and musicians have also stayed at the legendary castle. Recognized by Conde Nast Traveler as "one of the world's best places to stay" and USA Today as "one of the 10 places to relax your mind and body," Mohonk is a favorite place to visit, no matter the season. Wintertime is no exception. When the Freeman visited earlier this week, the temperatures had dipped into the teens and the winds were howling. A step inside Mohonk was at once warming and welcoming, with wood-burning fireplaces crackling in all the public areas and parlors. Though winter is typically slower than other seasons, guests came and went, moving slowly and appreciatively through the well-preserved structure. Long hallways, original woodwork, lead-glass windows, a seven-story staircase and antique furnishings give the resort its proud 19th-century character. "When you're here, you're stepping back in time," said Nina Smiley, Mohonk's marketing director. "People would come up in their horse and carriages, and the moment when they saw the castle, they knew they had arrived. "I think from the early days, there's just been that sense of place, and that sense of place continues. It's really a touchstone," she said. One of the reasons is that the hotel has stayed in the family. The Smileys have owned and operated Mohonk Mountain House since Albert Smiley's original purchase in 1869. Albert K. Smiley, president of Mohonk Mountain House since 1990, is the great-grand-nephew of Mohonk's founder. Presently, there are more than 20 Smiley family members from three generations involved in the Mohonk entity. "We found from the beginning that recreation and renewal ...of body, mind and spirit in a beautiful, natural setting is what people wanted," Smiley said. "It's about taking time to renew yourself and I think today, where everything is so rushed, people need a place like Mohonk," she said. The resort certainly has the facilities to smooth away anxieties. Mohonk has 259 guest rooms that range from classic and country to tower and lake-view. The newest, two-story addition is called the Mountain View suite, which features a spiral staircase that takes guests up to a circular bedroom with a king-size bed and flat-screen TV. Although there's nothing like a good night's sleep to rejuvenate the soul, Mohonk also has its award-winning spa to awaken the senses. In fact, Conde Nast Traveler named it the No. 2 resort spa in the country in 2012. It features 16 treatment rooms, a solarium with a stone fireplace and an outdoor heated mineral pool. For overnight guests, an indoor, heated swimming pool awaits with underwater surround sound. Mohonk also features a comprehensive fitness center and classes in yoga, Pilates, aerobics and Qi Gong, a Chinese health practice to manage stress. Smiley said Mohonk spa workers have further developed something they're calling "Solutions for Modern Living" treatments that target sore feet (mainly for women who wear high heels); the discomforts of texting; and the sleep-deprived. Relaxation is a key part of the Mohonk experience. Even a drive up the winding road leading to the castle reminds motorists to approach carefully and quietly. Guests can take full advantage of the laid-back pace of the hotel, but there is plenty to do for those who want to explore beyond their rooms or the spa, Smiley said. "We like to say that Mohonk is about options because you can be as active or relaxed as you want to be," she said. The vast property, much of it landscaped with gardens and meadows, offers adventure for outdoor enthusiasts. In the warmer months, Mohonk offers such recreational activities as horseback riding, boating on Lake Mohonk, golf, tennis, rock climbing and hiking along 85 miles of trails, including the famed Black Trail that leads to Skytop Tower. During the winter, guests can enjoy cross-country skiing on 30 miles of groomed trails, snowshoeing and ice-skating under a pavilion that holds a 9,375-square-foot refrigerated ice rink. One of the charms of the pavilion is its 39-foot-tall stone fireplace, where guests can warm themselves after hours of leisurely skating. Smiley said Mohonk is also known for its themed events like the Scottish weekend it just held. Other upcoming events include the "Locavore" weekend happening Feb. 1-Feb. 3 that will celebrate the Hudson Valley region with an array of local food, wine and music and the Art of Chocolate coming up Feb. 8-Feb. 10 that will feature recipes and samplings from chocolatiers. To boot, Mohonk will offer a special Valentine's Day package for a one-night's stay at $356 per couple that will include dinner, breakfast, turn-down service and chocolate-covered strawberries. "That is when we think of having our neighbors come," Smiley said. "They can enjoy an instant getaway and have a great time without having to drive or fly." Smiley said she knows there are people who have lived in the Mid-Hudson Valley all their lives but have never ventured up the mountain to Mohonk. She said some residents discover the resort when they host out-of-town friends or relatives and look for places to entertain their guests. "We like to think people are aware of us, and that we're here for them when they're ready to visit," she said. Beyond that, those at Mohonk have also done their part to promote other attractions in the Hudson Valley, Smiley said. "We like to think that we really help build awareness of the region. We're very fortunate to have attracted attention, and people who come to write about us often explore the region, and we're doing our part to promote it." AnneMarie Harms, the information assistant at the Ulster County Tourism Department, said the effort is appreciated. She also noted that the resort is one of the area's biggest draws. "I was at the New York Times Travel Show last Saturday, and a number of people approached my table and said, 'Do you have information on that beautiful place that's a castle?' "They came to the table specifically because of Mohonk. It's a real eye-catcher. It's just an exquisite castle and an exceptional experience," she said.

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (21Alive) -- If you want to go to Sycamore Hills to see the golf in person, you'll have an adventure in getting there.
The official detour takes you from I-69, west on Illinois Road, to south on Scott Road.
But construction-related lane restrictions on State Road 14 towards Scott Road will tie up traffic, and you cannot go around it on Covington Road, because the bridge over I-69 is still under construction.
So if you're not heading to the golf course, you might want to steer clear of the area.
"If you're familiar with the area, you might want to take some other routes and just keep that State Road 14 route open for people coming in from out of town off of I-69. Just a suggestion," says Mary Foster of INDOT.
The Dicke Road intersection and Covington Road bridge should be open by September 24th.

Recorded: Monday, November 28, 2011

Ely and Woodrow Wilson at The Hopkins by Gary M. Pecquet and Clifford F. Thies, as well as the Econ Journal Watch article Richard T. Ely: The Confederate Flag of the AEA? by Clifford F.

- "Assume the goat is goat and don't ask where the beer comes from at this Jamaican bar where they take the smoking ban about as seriously as they take the local police."
- ―GTA IV Manual Description
Located at the southern end of Tutelo Avenue in Beechwood City, off the Broker-Dukes Expressway, it is the local front for the Hillside Posse. Little Jacob, a friend of Niko and Roman, owns the café, but is only seen there during certain missions. Its area can be very crowded with Jamaicans at night.In GTA IV, The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony, the player can play pool there, either with a friend, a date, or, if he is alone, with a random bar patron. A QUB3D video arcade game is also located here. Despite being a "cafe", the establishment, much like with other non-fast-food restaurants, does not offer food or drinks to replenish health.
Like most landmarks in Broker, the Homebrew Café is featured in Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars at roughly the same spot, but exists as a non-interactive part of Beechwood City's street scenery.
- On the wall of the café, an artwork featuring beta Northwood is shown.
- The front of the restaurant is painted to resemble a Jamaican flag.
- The radio stations Massive B Soundsystem 96.9 and RamJam FM are played in the café.
- There is a Micro Uzi behind the cafe.
- In GTA Chinatown Wars, the pedestrians can be seen getting out and in the café, but however, it stills inaccessible to the player.
- On the map, it is named 8-Ball due to the fact you can play pool there.

Speech-Language Pathology (M.S.)
The areas of professional practice for speech-language pathologists are rapidly expanding, as are the types of clients they are expected to serve. In less than two years, our master's program in speech-language pathology maximizes opportunities for broad clinical experience as well as academic instruction. We prepare students to meet all requirements for the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association certificate of clinical competence in speech-language pathology (CCC-SLP) and for New York State licensure.
Designed for full-time study, the master's in SLP program includes 52 credits of coursework, comprising classes in core areas such as phonological disorders, aphasia, and stuttering, as well as in specialized areas such as swallowing, augmentative and alternative communication, and early intervention. The program concludes with a comprehensive examination that is structured similarly to the national Praxis exam. Ithaca College graduates have a long history of performing well on the Praxis exam and enjoy excellent career prospects.
Praxis Exam Pass Rate, Graduate Program Completion Rate, and Graduate Student Employment Rate
Integral to the program are clinical experiences in which you will work directly with clients throughout your program. You'll be well prepared for your final semester, spent in two full-time externships during which you'll experience the rigors and responsibilities of full-time professional work. The department is proud of our outstanding reputation among externship supervisors and employers.

Supported employment services increases the opportunity for individuals who might require augmented levels of support, training, and advocacy to be employed in real jobs for competitive wages. Consumers needing these services are most often individuals with multiple disabilities who have never worked before or have not been in the workforce for many years.
A job coach works with each consumer and their VR Counselor to perform a broad range of functions including helping with job applications, seeking out appropriate transportation, and arranging the necessary accommodations in the worksite. The supported employment approach provides a means for assessing not only the strengths and support needs of the individual but also, the ability of the employer to make reasonable accommodations. A supported employment approach further leads to the development and implementation of strategies to overcome barriers before they become problems that could jeopardize employment stability. These services are provided through an array of community based agencies

Groppler Zorn was a member of the Bandi species living on Deneb IV, involved with the supervision of Farpoint Station in 2364. He was the leader of his group and his office was located in the Old Bandi City.
Zorn entered into negotiations with the United Federation of Planets for use of Farpoint. Jean-Luc Picard, who represented the Federation, became suspicious of Zorn and the station itself. Zorn appeared nervous whenever any questions were asked about the station especially on how the Bandi were able to construct it so quickly. He threatened to offer the station to the Ferengi.
In reality, Zorn forced a shapeshifting spaceborne entity to take the form of a starbase. Zorn's acts were eventually discovered by the crew of the USS Enterprise-D when a second creature attacked the Bandi city and Zorn himself. Due to the intervention of the Enterprise, the entity stopped torturing Zorn. (TNG: "Encounter at Farpoint")

Lawmakers Honor Vol State Students for Magazine Award
Submitted on July 25, 2011 at 9:00 AM
Tennessee state senators Kerry Roberts and Mae Beavers recently honored Volunteer State Community College students who worked on the award-winning Pioneer student magazine. They presented the students with a resolution from the legislature, sponsored by Senator Roberts and co-sponsored by Senator Beavers. The resolution recognized the students, and faculty advisor Clay Scott, for being selected as National Finalist in the "Best Magazine" category of the 2010 Society of Professional Journalists' Mark of Excellence Awards.
"This school is a great resource and the more we can do in the legislative body to highlight the achievements of the college, the better," said Senator Roberts.
The Pioneer is produced twice each year and is written, edited and produced entirely by Vol State students.
Pictured left to right: Associate Professor Clay Scott, Representative Debra Maggart, Senator Mae Beavers, Senator Kerry Roberts, Samantha Hearn, editor; Josh Deardorff, photographer and writer; Matt Phillips, writer; and Dr. Warren Nichols, Vol State president.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. (WUSA) -- The battle over "fracking" continues in Maryland.
The commission looking into the controversial practice of hydraulic fracturing to extract natural gas has some recommendations to govern the work in Maryland. But it has another year of work, and commission members have very different ideas about whether fracking can be done safely.
The recommendations include a "landman registry," so that anyone buying leases for drilling on people's land in Maryland has to be registered with the state.
The commission is also endorsing a tax on extracted gas, and compensation for anyone whose land is damaged.
The Maryland Petroleum Council estimates there is somewhere between $2.7 billion and $5.8 billion dollars worth of gas in the deep Marcellus Shale in Garrett County if far Western Maryland.
James Raley, a Garrett County commissioner and member of the fracking commission, says young people in Western Maryland are desperate for jobs.
But Del. Heather Mizeur (D-Montgomery), who is also on the fracking commission, says she'll introduce a bill for a complete moratorium until there are better studies of the risks.

Nyamagana MP Ezekiel Wenje was yesterday ordered out of the National Assembly for being 'disrespectful' to the chair, following a heated exchange with the House chairperson, Sylvester Mabumba.
The drama started during question-and-answer session when several MPs sought the Speaker's guidance on some of the issues raised in the House.
Singida East legislator, Tundu Lissu (Chadema) had posed a supplementary question on why schools were demanding contributions from parents, contrary to government directives.
To substantiate his claims, the outspoken MP produced a letter dated May 2nd, 2005 authored by the then Singida District Commissioner, James Yamungu, directing parents to contribute to school and other development activities.
He accused the deputy local governments minister (education), Kassim Majaliwa, of deceiving the House when he said that the government had never ordered parents to contribute to school development.
However, before Lissu had finished his supplementary question, the chairperson Mabumba intervened: "Sit down sit down, if you have concrete evidence, present it to the Speaker."
When Lissu attempted to continue, the chairman stopped him, blaming him for calling the deputy minister a liar.
The chairman also prevented the deputy minister from responding to Lissu's claims, but deputy minister Majaliwa went on to say: "The government cannot direct wananchi to contribute to school development programmes. These arrangements are done at village and local governments levels."
The Minister of State in the President's Office (Public Relations and Coordination) Stephen Wasira also intervened, underlining the importance of people's contributions towards school development activities.
The House chairman gave Tundu Lissu until 11:00 am to present his evidence to the office of the Clerk of the National Assembly or the Speaker.
But Kasulu Urban MP, Moses Machali rose and asked for guidance of the chair, saying: "Lissu's claims are true…the minister must give detailed explanations."
"Please sit down…sit down! You have to respect the chair which controls proceedings in accordance with rules and regulations," said Mabumba, before Chief Whip and State Minister in the Prime Minister's Office, (Policy, Coordination and Parliamentary Affairs), William Lukuvi, intervened and asked the House to cool down to allow the chairman direct Lissu on modalities of presenting his evidence.
"This issue is not so serious. If Lissu cannot present his evidence at 11.00 am, then he should present written evidence to the Speaker/Parliament chairman," he said.
But Kasulu Urban legislator, Machali stood again, accusing the chair of not being fair to the Singida East MP.
Moments after the chairman cut short Machali's speech, Hezekiah Wenje rose up, and sought the Speaker's guidance, but started to speak before being granted permission.
The situation became tenser when the Acting Clerk of National Assembly, John Joel and the Parliament's chairperson, Jenister Muhagama stepped in to support the presiding chairman Mabumba — in attempts to restore calm and order in the House.
However, their efforts did not bear fruit as Mabumba and Wenje exchanged bitter words, prompting the chairman to order the House security guards to take Wenje out of the debating chamber.
Winding up the morning session, the presiding chairman, Mabumba said: "Because of the prevailing situation, Wenje is allowed to attend the evening session. I did this because the MP respected the chair's order of getting out of the House," noted Mabumba.
Speaking to journalists outside the House, Wenje accused the presiding chairman of incompetence in managing the Bunge session.
"He prevented me from talking about an issue of national interest. I wanted to talk about 1,024 tonnes of imported poisonous fish from Japan, which have been distributed to Morogoro and Kilombero," said the MP.
Meanwhile Lissu, has once again cited what he termed as improper treatment from presiding leaders of parliamentary sessions, accusing them of deliberately defending ministers.
He told a media conference here that what happened in the house yesterday was a clear picture that, House chair of the particular session; Sylvester Mabumba acted in defence of the deputy minister, who he had initially accused of telling lies before the National Assembly.
Lissu was referring to the decision by Mabumba to order for submission of evidence following the accusation raised against Deputy Minister Majaliwa, but delaying its presentation when it was ready.
'This is not proper, it has been a trend now, whenever the opposition camp has a point to prove by concrete evidence available, the presiding leader denies it that opportunity in order to safeguard the government interests' said Lissu.

Quiz: The 1994 OJ Simpson trial
How well do you remember the trial 20 years later?
Twenty years ago this month, Heisman Trophy winner and Pro-Football Hall of Famer OJ Simpson was named a suspect in the killings of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and Waiter Ron Goldman.
On June 17, 1994, Simpson led police on a low-speed chase, and the nation was able to watch it live on television. Some even dubbed it the first reality television programming.
Simpson's trial became one of the most publicized criminal trials in U.S. history. He found not guilty of the slayings, but the 16-month ordeal is remembered as one of the key pop culture moments of the 1990s.
A movie about the case, titled 'An American Mystery,' is slated for release in 2015, according to The Internet Movie Database.
Take this quiz to see how much you know about the infamous OJ Simpson trial.

Criminal penalties for people who disrupt a funeral or memorial service would get tougher under a bill approved by a House judiciary committee.
The panel voted unanimously Wednesday on the measure that also would expand the scope of buffer zones designed to keep protesters away. The bill expands on a 2006 law that responded to members of an anti-gay church picketing military funerals nationwide.
Rep. Kelly Hastings of Cherryville says the new bill is also directed to the Kansas church's activities.
Violating the proposed law would result in a higher grade misdemeanor and a felony on a second offense.
Sarah Preston with the state chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union says the proposed buffer zones are so large that passers-by could unknowingly break the law.

Suwannee Co., FL - A four hour armed standoff shook a sleepy neighborhood in Suwannee County Tuesday night. SWAT teams and Deputies had to talk down a woman threatening to start shooting officers.
Suwannee County Investigators say it all started when 49 year old Janice Thomas was attempting to commit suicide with pills. She had locked herself in the bedroom and when officers got there, they had to force their way in the door where they found the woman sitting cross-legged on the bed and pointing a gun at them. They were forced to take cover outside.
Thomas then came out with the gun in-hand, threatening to start shooting them if they didn't leave. The SWAT team soon responded. Finally around 8:00 p.m., Thomas gave herself up and came out of the trailer without the gun, where she was taken into custody.
Janice thomas is in the Suwannee County Jail. She's charged with Attempted Murder and nine counts of Aggravated Assault with a firearm on law enforcement officers.

From Edmunds.com
Wow — America really loves the Ford F-Series. For the 25th year in a row, the truck took top honors as the year's best-selling vehicle. The déjà vu theme continued throughout the list, with most of the vehicles remaining in the positions they held in the 2005 tally.
One notable change concerns SUVs. The Chevrolet TrailBlazer, which held the number 10 spot last year, was a no-show in the top 10 this time around — meaning that for the first time in over six years, there wasn't a single SUV on the list. How about those gas prices?
