So what can he expect for this... 2 games?
I'd give him one game for being underage, and one for being stupid.
Hopefully this is a one time deal for Jennert...I think this kid is going to be a good receiver for us down the road. He really impressed me in spring ball.
Way to go Donnie!

Carrying the banner for ISU.
I was relieved when I opened this thread and it was not marijuana.
Underage and stupid is pretty much the same thing. One game.
Iowa kid that blew his chance to play/suit up for an Iowa State/Iowa game. Congrats.
Not an Iowa kid.
Did he even play last week?
Underage drinking- I did it... 1 game...
1 game. and move on.
That was stupid. One or two games suspension.

For two decades now, the independent record label Ninja Tune has been steadily pushing the boundaries of electronic-based music, led by the Matt Black and Jonathan More, the two gents responsible for the politico-electronica outfit Coldcut. With their keen ears constantly perked, this imprint has since been aligned with a fairly impressive roster of talent from around the world, either releasing their albums or singles, grabbing songs for compilations, or hiring them as remixers.
To celebrate their 20th anniversary, the label has put together this box set, a sprawling and beautiful objet d'art. It comes with six full-length CDs, six 7″ singles, a 192-page hardback book that covers the brilliant graphic design work done for the label, and the potential to grab a pair of 12″ singles featuring exclusive tracks and remixes. And, true to their striving form, this set isn't simply a rehashing of Ninja Tune's most recognized tracks. Some of those do make appearances (Coldcut's "Timber", The Bug's "Skeng", and The Heavy's "How You Like Me Now?") but in radically remixed form. No, almost everything else here is either exclusive to the set or a previously released track turned inside out by a widely-recognized talent.
All the driving modes of electronic music are represented. Dubstep icons Joker (who turns the muscular neo-soul outfit The Heavy into a space age battalion) and Toddla T show up to swell the low end to eardrum wowing levels. Roots Manuva's husky rapping shows up throughout the set, alongside other vaunted hip-hoppers EL-P, DJ Vadim, and Kid Koala. And the label's experimental roots glare out in the hands of the Kronos Quartet who reinterpret Amon Tobin's "Foley Variations" as a springy bit of modern classical.
That last track is a prime example of the reverence so many of the artists tapped to guest on this set obviously have for Ninja Tune. They push themselves amazingly hard to do justice to the tracks they are remixing. Hot Chip adds their giddy disco bounce to Roots Manuva's "Let The Spirit" as a way to play of the song's reverent tone while still allowing the central message to glare out. Too, L.A.-based Gaslamp Killer plays fast and loose with DJ Vadim's "The Terrorist" by tossing a thick sheen of sonic glaze on it, thereby easing it into the world of modern hip-hop productions.
It's an exhaustive collection, but an exhausting one as well, best taken in small one-disc doses. But it is one that is worthy of a record label that has managed to stay independent in a marketplace and an industry that has grown to look askance at that line of thinking. It is as lovingly crafted and full of amazing work as almost everything Ninja Tune has done since arriving in the world in 1990. And it should leave you breathlessly anticipating what the next 20 years holds for this label and the electronic music world.

It was definitely a good episode. She is a very strong gym leader. One of the best gym battles so far. I like skyla's gym battle the best

My word...Iris and Cilan doing stuff with their faces not shown...Cilan saying stuff about amazing taste...and Cilan's hands doing what they were doing...I...wha...but they...have they always made out when Ash was battling D: Seriously, who was in charge of that scene did they not know how subjective that scene was, my mind may be dirty but it's hard not to think of dirty things with that scene...
The referee was awesome...that is all I have to say about that...I just loved his voice and how he said some English here and there(Ok I had more to say).
I enjoyed the episode overall now that I know what was being said. Enjoyed the battles and whatnot.

I really liked Iris' line "fun times, my foot!"
Sheesh she was so riled up lately... I don't know if its because of her BW2 role or because she's starting to like/respect Ash more.

I have to say, I actually enjoyed this battle, and I liked that they made Roxie this strong. I kinda wish she would become a regular... but hey, we've got fanfiction for that! ^^
I would have liked to see Scolipede, rather than Garbodor, get two wins against Ash, but for once, I can't complain.
If you rooted for Dawn during A Grand Fight For Winning even though you knew she'd lose, then copy and paste this in your signature.
FF.Net profile: Here!!\
The only two things that bugged me was Homika choosing to feed Pignite a Pecha berry, and the fact that Scolipede has lost all hope of EVER appearing hardcore in a battle.
That and my dislike of Snivy's absence aside, this was an excellent, EXCELLENT gym battle. League worthy. Homika's gym was made extremely unique, the rock concert setting was a wonderful change of pace.
I also enjoyed Iris/Cilan's cheering. Very amusing.
I like Homika because she's the best Poison gym leader that I like. I'm glad Ash won though because losing to a team that has a Koffing is no fun.
My ideal battle ever!
Bad episode. 3 vs 6 just showed how weak he is. If it was me, I would insisted 3 vs 3.
If I lost, I will keep training and become very strong until I beat her. It just showed Satoshi is very weak very weak.
A lot of gym battles are better than this.
I get that they wanted to promote Homika as an awesome character, but there was much more to these episodes than that.
If anything, 6 v 3 served both ways:
- It demonstrated Homika's strength and character.
- It showed that Ash still isn't fully ready.
I'm not arguing that they were beaten easly, I'm saying that they were more focused on showing her strenght and Satoshi pokemon mostly being defeated by her poison tatics to make her a credible 8th gym leader than anything else.
You know, something I like to point out. Apart from Dawn in DP, Iris and Cilan went all thw way to root for Ash in the two-parter.
Trust me, this is coming from someone who despised Iris for the first 10 episodes of BW, and now actually think she's a great female companion.
I'm being sarcastic, she never hated Satoshi, she uses her catchpharse with everyone not just him.
She never treated him bad, she just pointed out his errors nothing else.
Plus I like how everyone bashes his character but apparently a character in the anime that says he is wrong when he is wrong(even if he turns it around) saying it, is being an *******, I guess 90% of the anime spoilers forum must be a bunch of assholes since at some point in time most of us have said his character was wrong.
Well, it was definetly annoying seeing her call him a kid constantly, and critise him on everything, but when she said it to other people too (mainly Trip), it was a good sign. And about people bashing his character, I couldn't agree more it's way too annoying. I've gone into too many discussions that im tired of discussing it now so imma leave it.
I'm not sure if I'm reading a thread or a VM right now....

I'm still laughing at the scene where we don't see what Iris and Cilan are doing off to the side.. Such a offhand shot. As for the battle, I've come to terms with it, although I would've liked Palpitoad to be more of a force here.
Also, I missed Boldore using Rock Smash. It now seems like a forced move it had to learn to beat Clay's Excadrill.

Dunno, atleast it got to use the other moves, I liked how he was using Sandstorm even though it was deflected pretty easly both times, well thats how Sandstorm is supposed to be used anyway but I liked seeing it.
Kinda hoping the Shizui battle has weather effects to so we can see Palpitoad appear and take advantage of Swift Swim.

Hi, Just wanted to post this before digging further.
I have installed the connector to SP2 Outlook 2003 and have successfully connected to Zimbra and syncd fine.
However I wanted to import a csv file containing contacts or Calendar items from an Exchange mailbox that was exported to csv. When I do that either online of offline it gets 2 or 3 items in them reports a std MS error and attempts to restart Outlook.
I get this on each machine I have tried and wondered if this was something to be expected at this stage or whether it warrants further investigation and reporting to you. Haven't seen something posted quite like this but that may be more my searching skills!

NEW YORK (AP) - The Southeastern Conference isn't No. 1 in one category: revenues.
Forbes released a list Wednesday of the estimated annual revenues for the top conferences in college sports (http://onforb.es/X7uMBL). The SEC, boasting the reigning national champions in football and men's basketball, is fourth.
The Big Ten is No. 1 with revenues of $310 million - $250 million of that coming from TV. The Pacific-12 is second at $303 million and the Atlantic Coast Conference third at $293 million.
The SEC had revenues of $270 million.
Forbes' financial data came from the NCAA, BCS, conferences, news reports and estimates.

Summer Concert
On Sunday, June 28, Saint Xavier University hosted its annual summer concert and fireworks. The New Odyssey Band performed favorites from across the decades on the front steps of the Warde Academic Center from 7 until 10 p.m. The concert concluded with a patriotic finale and fireworks display.
There was no charge for the concert. The community was encouraged to come out and set up blankets and lawn chairs to enjoy the show. Concessions were available from local vendors.
Mark your calendar for next year's annual summer concert on Sunday, June 26, 2016.

Hi, I have an issue with the "Import\Export" function, that is in the web client under "Preferences" tab. My goal is to export mail, addresses, calendar and tasks that were produced between two specific dates. Every different range of dates that I select using "Start on" and "End On", the .tgz file that is produced has always the same size, and includes email sent/received in a period outside the selected one.
Is it a bug, or I didn't understand how to use that function?
I have this issue on ZCS 7.1.2 running on SLES 11.
Best regards.

Hello to everyone - new to the forum.
I am planning an Antelope hunt this fall and am looking to put in for area 90 type 2. Wanted to know if anyone had any information on area 90? I have 4 points and would look to put in for the special tags just to increase my odds. Would area 90 be a good use of my points?
I also know that I am late in asking these questions - thought I had until the end of March. Also subscribed on Sunday and did not realize it would take a week to get to the MRS due to system upload lag - my fault I know.
Thanks for any information.

The 10th and 11th Map-of-the-Week releases are dungeon plans for the lair of the dark draug Svurumnir. In the Jörðgarð (TM) campaign setting, a dark draug is very similar to a high-powered lich in such OGL 3.5 games as the Pathfinder (R) RPG, the True20 (TM) system or Dungeons & Dragons (R) 3.5.
Svurumnir's small dungeon consists of Svurumnir's tower, a tower for his red draug magi and a shabbily restored mill building that's the lair of the orcs who serve Svurumnir and his subservient reds draugs. This week's release includes an outdoor, top down view of the dungeon complex and the cellar, ground floor and upper floor views of the orc lair. Next week's release will offer the four levels of the two towers.
Only a small number of orcs, usually eight to 10, can be found at any one time in the lair.
Cellar Level: The floor plans for the two towers and the mill building follow. The magi's towers have no cellars. The cellar of the mill building contains food and wine supplies for the orcs and a large holding cell with two bronze-barred doors. Four unanimated human skeletons are on the floor of the cell. These are the remains of a party of human treasure hunters that the orcs captured. Svurumnir had intended to keep them alive there, for future use in black necromantic experiments, but he forgot to tell the orcs to feed them. They died of starvation and thirst.
Ground Floor - Mill Building: To the rear of the open ground floor are parts of the mill's inner workings and, in the rear wall, the shaft of the waterwheel that no longer exists. On the left side we see the orcs' sleeping bags. On the right side we find a wood stove for heating, an oven for cooking, the orcs' dining table and kitchen cupboards and the trapdoor to the cellar ladder. The stairway leads to the upper story.
Upper Floor - Mill Building: The rear left is open. The mill works once reached up into this area. The rear right is mostly empty. The old grain chutes still are there. A double door for the no longer existing hoist is in the right wall. The room to the front left is a dark rider draug's chamber. It always is there. A dark rider draug who is not on patrol at the time uses the right chamber. All three dark rider draugs appear in their avatar forms. Their true bodies are hidden elsewhere.
You can get these plans in any either of two versions:
1. As JPG flat maps, each 1360 x 1020 pixels (4 MB), available here.
2. The original FM8 map in FMP format, fully editable. Because the various dungeon levels are layers of a single FM8 map file, this version includes both this week's and next week's dungeon levels. Download it from our Jörðgarð web page (34 MB). This version includes a PDF pamphlet that tells you how to use the layers that are built into the map.
Both versions are released for personal and commercial use under the Open Game License Version 1.0a, which you can read on the Jörðgarð web site.
To get the original FM8 map, go to the Jörðgarð web site:

A Makeover Helps Make Kids Feel Better
When her young granddaughters came down with the flu, Albany's Janet Trombly headed directly to the Emergency Department at Albany Medical Center.
While Mrs. Trombly, a longtime Albany Med donor and volunteer, was thrilled with the patient care her family received, she couldn't help but notice that the pediatric waiting area and rooms could be more kid-friendly.
|Janet Trombly created the idea that started an Albany Med pediatric emergency room waiting area makeover.
"Thanks to the support of Mrs. Trombly and her friends, and the vision of Mrs. Medina, children who visit us at a very stressful time in their life have something really fun to take their minds off why they are here," said Christopher King, M.D., Albany Med's director of emergency medicine who oversaw the transformation of the space.
The pediatric waiting room is now decorated as a whimsical aquarium with colorful fish, shells and other sea life juxtaposed with doughnut-shaped trees, picture frames and a wrapped present that features the names of the two girls – Sarah and Charlotte -- who inspired the makeover. A checkerboard door frame surrounds the entrance to each patient room, now painted in a vivid tropical theme; one hallway features a 30-foot mural with a lighthouse theme with bright colors and quirky shapes that quickly take child's mind off being in the hospital.
|Artist Anita Medina, designer of the makeover, shows one of the murals she created for the pediatric waiting area.

Hey all!
TLDR - First map, going for realistic, building from the ground up. Skip to the pictures.
For the rest of you, like I said in my member introduction I've been lurking for a few weeks after having found this forum through two links to Tear's Saderan tutorial, one from here and one form r/worldbuilding. (I wonder how many times y'all hear that...) Anyways, I subscribed there and signed up here in order to develop my own world for a story that has been floating around in my head for a while. I'm going to do the mapping here, and I do hope you will all weigh in with advice and criticism (constructive and otherwise).
I was overawed by the maps featured on the home page, and I hope my map will be somewhere near half as good.
Also, in an aside, I attempted to start this thread once before, and it hasn't shown up. So, if I wind up posting multiple threads, I'm sorry, and this is the main one. =)
I'm going for as realistic as possible for the world, because in my view as an anthropologist, the environment has some determinant effects on the cultures that emerge within it. I'll therefor be starting from the ground up with this world, and taking only a very few liberties along the way (such as preventing the extinction of certain species, allowing for magic of a sort, etc.) but map wise those should not have any affect.
So, the plan is a World Map, on the scale of our Earth. I'm assuming same composition and density, similar orbital period, axial tilt, and overall northerly land mass concentration for the sake of simplicity. I'm giving it one major satellite, a little larger but also further away than out moon, so it should have a similar tidal influence; and two minor ones that will have negligible tidal pull.
I'm going to start with a coastline that I like, (because if I don't like that why bother?) and then to work backwards from there to the tectonic plates. They probably wont be scientifically accurate, but all I really need is to figure out where the mountains and major earthquake zones will be. That is today's post. Next will be major wind patterns, ocean currents, temperature, precipitation, drainage, climates, and biomes. Then the mapping of historical borders and major sites through a few major periods until I get to where I want my story set. At that point I will begin the final map with the current political landscape and in a (hopefully) original/visually appealing style. And then I'm going to print a poster of it. So its going to be a big project. However, I'm not as ambitious or talented as Schwarzkreuz, so I'll not be setting a time limit =)
But first thing is first, I need a coastline. So here it is. The blue is temporary to distinguish water from land.
Tectonic plates. Red hashes are mid-oceanic ridges, red dotted line is a nearly entirely subducted plate, blue dashes indicate subduction zones, and blue arrows indicate movement. I threw in a really FUBARed region in the southwestern continent because I wanted something interesting to explain that inland sea. So the area is resultant from some major cataclysm in the not super-distant geological past, but far enough away that the effects have dissipated. Say an asteroid impact or a magavolcano.
Major mountain ranges indicated. I'll add in some more, because not all mountains are resultant from the current plate arrangement (see Appalacians) but these will do for now. The purple fuzzy area is a major plateau, and the ringed mountains on the sw continent indicate the crater outer ridge, or the caldera, or what have you.
So, thoughts? Is there anything that needs to be addressed before I continue?

|Eight head of cattle dead, two injured in semi accident
|Written by Wauneta Breeze
|Thursday, 31 October 2013 20:42
Four of the eight cows dead after an accident west of Wauneta on Thursday, Oct. 24 can be seen in this picture. In total eight cows were killed and two injured. The semi truck that struck the cattle sustained extensive damage, but the driver was uninjured in the accident. (Diane Stamm | The Wauneta Breeze)
By Sheri Hink-Wagner
The Wauneta Breeze
A semi truck driving west on Highway 6 Thursday, Oct. 24 at 9 p.m. MT struck a small herd of cattle. The driver was uninjured and eight cattle died on scene. Two cows sustained injuries.
Chase County Sheriff Deputy Mike Dukes explained owner/operator Terry Clason with Clason Trucking of Waverly, Neb. was traveling westbound at approximately mile marker 39 on U.S. Highway 6 in his 2007 Peterbuilt truck when he saw an oncoming vehicle.
Clason told officials he had dimmed his truck's headlights in reference to the oncoming vehicle. At the last moment, Clason saw a small heard of black cattle on the highway.
He told law enforcement officials he had no way to avoid hitting the cattle. Clason's truck struck 10 cattle, killing eight and injuring two. The cattle were owned by Wayne Krausnick of rural Chase County.
Clason did not sustain injuries in the accident, though his semi sustained extensive damage that required it to be towed from the scene.
The other vehicle, driven by Alondra Almanza of Wauneta was not involved in the incident. However, Almanza stated she suffered "quite a shock" when the truck entered her lane in an attempt to avoid the cattle.
Friday morning, the dead cattle were visible on the highway. Some of them appeared to have been thrown as far as 25-30 yards into the north and south ditches.
Law enforcement officials issued no citations.

A buildup of impurities and environmental particulates can clog the skin, dulling its natural radiance and enlarging your pores. As these pollutants remain on the skin, they take away from its ability to remain moisturized, creating dull, rough patches. While daily cleansing can remove some of this buildup, it isn't always efficient enough to reach deep into the skin's pores to remove all of the impurities and dead skin cells that have accumulated there. Adding a high-performing toner into your beauty care regimen can give you the assistance needed to fully cleanse the skin, removing all of the impurities, excess sebum, and residual makeup that dulls the skin and reduces its clarity. The full line of H2O Plus Toners And Clarifiers delivers skin-friendly ingredients that sweep away impurities without damaging or drying out the skin, leaving it fresher looking. Simply use one of the available H2O Plus Toners And Clarifiers once or twice a week along with your regular beauty care products for clearer skin.
H2O Plus Toners And Clarifiers include gentle formulas designed to produce results without drying out the skin.
Maintaining soft, hydrated skin is simply a matter of finding gentle skincare products featuring multi-functionality. If you can use a formula that moisturizes as it tones or hydrates as it cleanses, then you can deliver two essential processes to your skin at one time. H2O Plus Toners And Clarifiers clarify, tone, and moisturize the skin, while also protecting it from unnecessary irritation. Add one of these H2O Plus Toners And Clarifiers into your beauty routine for fresher looking skin.
It's important to find a toning product that doesn't take away your skin's moisture as it clarifies your skin.

Oldsmar, Florida -- Deputies arrested a man wanted in connection with a home invasion and other felonies was arrested early Friday morning.
Violent Crimes Task Force members received a tip that Andre Miles was seen driving a rented Chevy pick-up truck in the area of Shore Drive and SR 580 in Oldsmar Thursday night.
Authorities caught up with him around 1 a.m. Friday while he was heading west on SR 580. After setting up "stop sticks" near the 580 bridge, they were able to stop his truck. However, as police approached, he reversed the truck and rammed a deputy's cruiser. Two other task force members were able to use their cruisers to block his escape.
During his arrest, a .45 caliber Colt handgun with the hammer cocked fell out of Miles' waistband and onto the seat of the truck. The gun was secured and Miles was taken into custody.
Authorities say the gun was stolen in a residential burglary back in August.
Miles, 25, has been charged with the Armed Home Invasion Robbery from Sept. 19, Grand Theft Carrying a Concealed Weapon Aggravated Fleeing and Eluding Driving with License Suspended or Revoked (DWLSR) Resisting an Officer without Violence Possession of Marijuana Felon in Possession of a Firearm Warrant out of Hillsborough Co. for VOP Fleeing and Eluding.

Rifle High School's move back to the 4A classification doesn't bother Cindy Skinner one bit.
"Not at all," said Skinner, who is entering her 17th season as Rifle's softball coach. "We've been 4A for as long as I've coached, except for the past two years, when the economy took a dive."
Of course, Rifle's enrollment took a dive along with the economy, prompting the Bears' move to the 3A Western Slope League. But Rifle is back in the 4A classification this year, which is where Skinner said the Bears should be.
"When you're playing those kinds of teams, as long as the girls work hard and put in a lot of effort, they should be able to compete with just about anybody," Skinner said.
The Bears were right in the thick of things in the 3A WSL last year, finishing third with a 4-4 league mark and an 11-10 overall record. Three of those losses in league play were by two runs or less, and the Bears were able to reach the 3A state playoffs.
Many of the players from last year's team are back this season, and Skinner feels the experience the Bears gained will carry over into their 2012 campaign.
"I think these guys will be able to play in this league and keep up with everyone," she said. "With different teams, I'm not really sure where they're at. But I know what we have to do.
"We have to build up and be defensively strong because we do have good pitching," Skinner continued. "These girls want to do well with that, and if we're not there right now, we'll get there."
Junior pitcher Taylor Gore will be the main player toeing the rubber for the Bears as one of Rifle's key returnees. Junior shortstop Emma Speer and junior catcher Brittany Neuroth, both of whom earned all-star accolades last season, join a host of key returning players, which includes senior infielder Cassidy Blackard and senior utility player Cheyenne Roark.
Other players Skinner feels could contribute greatly this season are juniors Mary Wright (outfield and catcher), Taylor Morris (utility) and Jordan Smith (outfield), along with sophomores Allie MaGee (outfield and pitcher) and Melissa Steinbach (outfield).
Rifle opens its season with a 4A WSL game on Aug. 28 at Delta.

Judgment Day

Michael Turner, attorney with Kasdan Simonds
Judge David C. Velasquez
William Ingalsbe, attorney with Monteleone and McCrory
Concrete has deteriorated due to sulfate attack.
Left: Batchman Richard Bowman (left) talks with Tim Toland, president of National Ready Mixed Concrete Co., at its plant in Van Nuys, Calif.
They are attractive houses, with flagstone paths and two-story entryways, lined up on quiet cul-de-sacs just three minutes from the freeway in Mission Viejo, Calif. They are comfortable homes, 2,000-2200 square feet each, with current asking prices approaching $900,000.
All seems fine to an ordinary passerby. "California Dreaming," one might think.
But about six years ago, their owners were warned that these houses were full of defects and could be crumbling under their feet. That was the genesis of the lawsuit, Castron v. Fieldstone Pacific, in which the concrete producer defendant, National Ready Mixed Concrete, stood its ground, went to trial, won, and even got a judgment against the homeowners to pay for defense costs.
Although the appeal will likely last well into summer 2007, there are already indications this case has changed the climate of sulfate attack claims. There are also considerable doubts about the future, because new laws and changed building codes may alter the ground rules completely.
The trial concerned external sulfate attack, which has been at the center of millions of dollars in litigation the past 12 years. Sulfates dissolved in groundwater are alleged to seep into concrete foundations and slabs and react with chemicals in the concrete. They form microscopic crystals, which break down the structure of the concrete.
For sulfate attack to occur, there must be sulfates in the soil, they have to get into the concrete, and the concrete must contain the chemicals that react with them. When the phenomenon was discovered more than 50 years ago, special types of cement were developed, Type II and Type V, which resist sulfate attack because they contain less of the chemicals that react with the sulfates.
For decades, Southern California residential projects built on soils containing sulfates were specified for 2000-pound concrete using Type V cement. In 1985, the Uniform Building Code regarding sulfates was changed. A sulfate resistance table was added, which called not only for sulfate-resistant cement, but also a lower water/cement ratio: 0.5 for moderate sulfates, 0.45 for severe sulfates. That translates to about 4500-pound concrete. Theoretically, this denser concrete would be less permeable to groundwater and the sulfates dissolved in it.
The legal problems arose because the code changed, but the practice in Southern California did not. "Engineers kept specifying 2000-pound concrete even when they found severe levels of sulfate in the soils," says William Ingalsbe of Monteleone and McCrory, the lead attorney who defended National Ready Mixed Concrete. "They would specify Type V cement, which, in practicality, had worked for the past 30 years.
"Some engineers believe the code was never intended to apply to residential concrete," explains Ingalsbe. "Residential concrete falls within the definition of 'plain concrete' under the code, different from reinforced or structural concrete. Arguably, the requirement for sulfate resistance applies to all concrete, but engineers never interpreted it that way. No building official ever interpreted the code to apply to residential construction or required them to use 4500-pound concrete."
Concrete producers were caught in the middle. "The engineer designs the concrete. He is the guy licensed by the state of California to do so, not the ready-mix supplier," says Ingalsbe. "Developers kept issuing specifications designed by their engineers, and ready-mix suppliers kept supplying orders with 2000-pound concrete."

It took nearly two dozen rescue workers to free an American exchange student who got trapped in a giant sculpture of a vagina.
NBC News reported that the unidentified man got his legs lodged inside the six-foot replica after losing a dare.
The sculpture, installed 13 years ago in Tuebingen, Germany, is reportedly worth $200,000. The college student was freed after about 30 minutes and suffered little more than a bruised ego.

6JSC/ISSN/3 Discussion paper: Serials and changes in mode of issuance - is a new description always needed?

General comments
I completely agree with the thrust of this paper:
" In essence, the ISSN Network wants to avoid a proliferation of unnecessary new ISSN assignments and descriptions which would be difficult to justify to such users as publishers of the resource and end-users, neither of whom are likely to perceive any fundamental change in the resource when the mode of issuance changes, particularly in an online resource. ISSN prefers that where a change in mode of issuance does not coincide with a major title change and/or a change in medium, it should result only in a revision of the existing description; not in the creation of a new one. "
We don't need another reason to create new serial records. Particularly just an RDA-centric one.
-- Glennan (PCC), for Ben Abrahamse, MIT 8/28/12
I can certainly understand the point of view of the ISSN International Centre on this matter. Given the use of the ISSN as an identifier, the issuance of a new ISSN to the same (reorganized) content would have ramifications for all the systems that incorporate the ISSN in their own system of identifiers, such as the DOI and OpenURL, potentially spawning a cascade of broken links.
As to whether a change in the mode of issuance occurs at the manifestation level or the expression level, I suppose it would depend on the effect the change has on the content. If a journal is reconfigured as a database of articles, but all the articles from the original online issues persist in the database, my inclination would be to treat it as a reconfiguration of content in the same manifestation. Another manifestation might retain the original organization in issues while presenting current content as independent articles. With the proliferation of "online first" articles that are integrated into issues after the fact of publication, we're already living in such a world to some extent. The organization into issues is in some ways merely a display convention. In fact, I could imagine an online journal that was organized primarily by the subject of the content but could reconfigure itself into issues for those more comfortable with that arrangement, simultaneously an integrating resource and a serial.
I remember the old ISDS Register in microfiche used to exist in this sort of in-between "Schrödinger's Cat" sort of state. Each microfiche "issue" comprised two discrete parts: (1) a set of the most recent new and amended records for the ISDS database (added to the end of the existing base file) and (2) a set of cumulative indexes to the same, with each entry in an index pointing to the latest version of a given record in the base file. It arrived as a serial but became an integrating resource in practice.
So I guess I would say
(1) A change in mode of issuance is typically a manifestation-level phenomenon, since the content, in the words of the Working Group on Aggregates, remains "substantially the same"
(2) At least in cases such as I've described, the appropriate treatment for the bibliographic record is an amendment of the existing description rather than a new description (and consequently a new record)
-- Glennan (PCC), for Ed Jones, National University 8/28/12
NLM has some concerns about not making a new description when an electronic serial becomes an electronic integrating resource. If you keep the old description when the mode of issuance changes, and then the integrating resource undergoes a major title change, the original serial title could be lost completely. In essence that serial then has latest entry cataloging, instead of successive entry cataloging.
-- Glennan (PCC), for NLM 8/31/12
Constituency Responses
ACOC: Text of response LC: Text of response
ACOC and LC both indicate a willingness to entertain a proposal to change the RDA instructions on whether a change in mode of issuance requires a new description. LC, in particular, offers some suggestions on the form and content of such a proposal.
[JSC Rep note: This is a discussion paper, not a proposal, so we do not need to decide whether to support a change to the RDA instructions. We can offer comments on the issues involved, such as those given above. And we can, I would presume, agree that we would like to see a formal proposal. -- J. Attig, 2012/09/17]

2nd Ltd. William C Jones identification papers
"It was November 11th, 1917. The army transport Thomas with the dignity becoming to a veteran of numberless crossings of the wide Pacific, backed silently away from the wharf and turned her prow towards the Golden Gate, and beyond that, 2100 miles to Honolulu. It took just a week to reach Honolulu, a week of golden sunny days, soft caressing winds, and beautiful star filled nights. Then all of a sudden, there was Hawaii straight ahead of us, and we landlubbers marveled that in that infinite expanse of water we could find a small island, first try.
Some of us had come from the cold snow covered reaches of land along the Canadian border, and I for one, said to myself as I sat out on the deck luxuriating in the soft warm breeze and sunshine, the boat rolling ever so little in gentle swells, "How long has this been going on?" Strange how habit and environment does make prisoners of us. To be sure one has to consider economic necessities too. One wonders how come the Eskimos ever went so far north, and why they stayed there after they found out what a cold bleak place it is up there.
I enjoyed standing as forward in the bow as I could, watching the flying fish as they leaped out of the water and skimmed along just above the waves ahead of the boat. . ."
by 2nd Ltd William C Jones of the Russian Railway Service Corps.
I wish to make it plain that it is not my intent to be partisan. I was surprised to find that WWI still brings forth strong feelings from people. I should anticipated this as my own country's civil war is still bitterly remembered by descendants of those who fought in it and those whose ancestors were not yet citizens of of the United States. World War I, or the Great War, was a terrible cataclysm whose effects we are still feeling today. My country joined late in the War with a child's idealism that they were going to fight a "war to end all wars". Idealism is one of our big problems. There are lessons to be learned from this great tragedy, but I am sure that nobody today is listening.
Part of the problem is that we all have our own versions of history. While serving as a UN Peacekeeper in Kosovo, my son asked why it was that nobody seemed to learn from history. He was told, "History is what your father teaches you, and here, if you do not learn your father's history, he beats you." I think it is the same everywhere.
I would like to provide links to other sites that may provide a more diverse view of things. I would like to hear from anyone interested in doing that. If you have no web site, I will attempt to include your material on nortvoods.net. I have more space than I will ever use. I would try a bulletin board but my last attempt at that was sabatoged by pornographers and hackers.

RUSSIAN SIDESHOW by Robert L. Willett
Potomic Books Inc.
"In July 1918, as the carnage of World War I continued, President Woodrow Wilson deployed U.S. troops to join other Allied forces in civil war-ravaged Russia. Ostensibly a mission to guard tsarist military supplies and the Trans-Siberian Railroad, the true purpose of the Allied intervention was to help topple the nascent Bolshevik government.
Dispatched to some of the most remote regions of the Russian wilderness-from the frigid port city of Archangel to Lake Baikal to Vladivostok-the U.S. troops encountered fierce resistance from Red army units, partisans, and peasants. Using previously classified official records and the letters and diaries of Americans who served there, Robert L. Willett describes the suffering of the hundreds of American soldiers who fought and died in subzero conditions, both in combat and from disease. Expertly researched and provocatively written, this book is the first to describe in detail the experiences of the American doughboys who fought in this little-known campaign-a tragically misguided military action that established a legacy of distrust that defined U.S.-Soviet relations for the next seven decades."
The above is an Amazon Book review of a book written by Robert L. Willett called RUSSIAN SIDESHOW. It is printed by Potomic Books Inc. of Washington D.C. and is currently in print. If you are at all interested in understanding what happened in Siberia, I recommened that you buy this book. ISSBN 1-57488-429-8 Potomic Books Inc.
Below are three attempts to explain the saga of the Russian Railway Service. I have searched for, and other than the the book listed above, not found, a better explanation of the strange events that brought some 300 American Railway men from the upper Midwest to Japan and Siberia at the close of World War One. Woodrow Wilson, and every other politician involved in this fiasco have backed and filled and covered until the only one thing is clear, the men were had.
I say this because they enlisted to fight in WWI but ended up in the middle of the Russian Revolution, on the side of the White Russians. Of course this allowed the Allies to open a new Eastern Front halfway across Russia, and deprive the Germans of manpower it had hoped to transfer to the Western Front, as well as use of the war materials we had abandoned there.
They joined what they were told was the military, received their pay and orders from the military, and suffered hardships and deprivations in Siberia for two years after WWI was over. When they were released from service they were told that they had not been in the army, but were instead attached to the State Department. For years they fought for recognition that they had served their government in the Great War, and for years they failed. At last the Supreme Court sided with them, but the government waited until there were only a few survivors. My father was one of the few who received a flag and certificate of recognition for his service upon his death.

On October 1, 1917, the Russian Bolshevik Revolution succeeded in Russia proper, but in Siberia, chaos ensued. The Whites (Mensheviks), Czarists, Czechs, Japanese and Americans had armed men fighting against the Bolsheviks and their Korean nationalist allies in Siberia - all trying to undo the Revolution. After the Tzar's government fell, Alexander Kerensky's pro-Western government took over and the US promptly gave it a $100 million credit for buying American goods. In September of that year, Kerensky invited the US to run the Trans-Siberian Railway. The US government readily accepted the challenge and formed the Russian Railway Service Corps (RRSC), made of 285 railroad workers with military training. Although these men were not regular soldiers, RRSC was officially a military organization. On 11 November 1917, RRSC left St. Paul, Minnesota and headed to San Francisco. The Americans arrived at Vladivostok in December 1917 but were turned back by the port authority and ended up in Nagasaki, Japan. After several months of unplanned 'vacation' in Japan, the unit reached Siberia via Manchuria.
On March 3, 1918, the Russian Provisional Government under the Bolsheviks signed a peace treaty with Germany and gave the Ukraine, under counter-revolutionary forces, to Germany, which was in desperate needs of the Ukraine minerals, wheat and oil on account of the British blockade. This treaty meant 40 new German divisions to fight the Anglo-French allies. The US feared that the war material stockpiled by the Allies in Siberia might fall into the German or the Soviet hands. The Allies shipped and stockpiled war materials at Vladivostok during World War I. By 1914, over one billion dollars worth, 400,000 tons, of construction material, barbed wire, rails, vehicles, machine tools, and munitions were waiting to be moved to the front lines in Europe.
In addition to safeguarding the war supplies, the US wanted to help anti-Soviet forces in Siberia topple the Soviets. The US decided to send combat troops to augment the RRSC soldiers already in Siberia. The American Expeditionary Force Siberia (AEFS) was made of 5,000 men from the US 8th Infantry Division in the US and other US units in the Philippines. Major General William Graves was made the commander. (The US sent troops to Archangel, a separate operation in another region of Russia. These troops were forced to leave Russia on June 27, 1919).
Gen. Graves was ordered to proceed to Siberia promptly to assist the Czech Legion being pursued by the Red Army. The Allied wanted the Legion moved to Europe via Siberia to fight against the Germans. The Legion was made of Czech and Slovak POWs and Austro-Hungarian deserters to fight the Germans during World War I. When Lenin withdrew the Russian troops from the War, the 40,000 Legion was stranded in Ukraine. Lenin agreed to ship the Legion to Vladivostok, from where they find a sea passage to Europe, and in return, the Legion agreed to leave the weapons behind. Howver, the Legion went wild in Siberia and took control of many towns and established military governments hostile to the Bolsheviks.
Graves and his troops left San Francisco on August 15th aboard the Sheridan and Thomas and reached Vladivostok on September 1, 1918. The American troops joined 70,000 Japanese, 829 British, 1,400 Italian, 107 French colonial troops and a Canadian brigade already in Siberia. Japan, the US and China signed the Inter-Allied Railway Agreement in November 1918, under which the Trans-Siberian Railways would be taken over and managed by these nations. The railway systems were divided up among the three 'expeditionary' forces.
Siberia was plagued by various warlords, most notorious being Grigori Semenov. His rampage began in January 1918 with a handful of renegade deserters and by 1922, he commanded a force of several thousands. His main base was at Cita (or Chita) and his bandits pillages nearby Korean villagers and many Korean women and children were raped and murdered by Grigori's bandits. Gregori was helped by the Japanese Expeditionary Force in Siberia. The Japanese and their bandit allied relied on the Trans Siberian Railways for troop movements and logistics, and the Americans of the RRSC maintained the railroads for them, thus directly and indirectly fighting against the Korean people.
In September of 1919, the situation in Siberia took a sudden turn for the worse when the main anti-Soviet army led by Admiral Aleksandr Kolchak was defeated in Russia and fled to Siberia. The American RRSC came to their rescue and Kolchak's defeated army was ferried to Omsk and other towns in Siberia. However, the Soviet Red Army marched right behind the White armies and forced the RRSC and Gen. Grave's troops to leave Siberia. On April 1, 1920, the last US troops left Vladivostok. The Soviets and their Korean allies captured some 150 Americans and killed perhaps twice as many Yanks in Siberia and Northern Russia. No one knows how many were injured or died of natural causes in Siberia.

Honoring athletes: what's right, what's wrong?
A couple of weeks ago the votes were counted for this year's Baseball Hall of Fame selections. Nobody was selected. It isn't the first time that this has happened but when you look at this year's candidates, you find the following: A player who hit 762 home runs wasn't elected; a seven time Cy Young award winner wasn't elected; a player who hit 609 home runs only got 12.5 percent of the vote and a seven time all-star with 20 years of playing who had 3060 hits in his career but fell short of the 75 percent of the total votes needed for induction.

Venture capital certainly has its place within the entrepreneurial ecosystem. Some of our nation's largest companies (and employers), like Apple, Google and FedEx, have secured this form of funding. But plenty of Kauffman Foundation research tells us that VC funding isn't as mainstream in startups as one would gather based on its common place in startup news. In fact, less than 20 percent of the fastest growing young companies ever take venture capital money.
Baby boomers are micromanagers, work hard, do not understand technology, are stubborn and want to destroy the planet. Millennials are lazy, entitled, tech savvy, want to save the world and don't know how to communicate in person. Although the generalizations of baby boomers and millennials vary, they do share one similar characteristic, they both share particular entrepreneurial characteristics. Millennials crave freedom and earning potential. Baby boomers have a desire to build something.
Chasing an entrepreneurial dream can be an all-consuming effort. Particularly in those crucial early days of a startup, founders seem to eat, sleep and breathe their businesses. This naturally occurring tunnel vision has a purpose, of course, allowing entrepreneurs to give their business babies the time and attention they need to mature. But this heads-down mode is not without its drawbacks, one of which is neglecting to stay up on current events--particularly the happenings that can impact the entrepreneurs who are inadvertently paying no attention to them.

Something extraordinary happened in Kansas City last Thursday. For the second year in a row, some of Kansas City's largest organizations participated in a reverse pitch. KCNext, the host and organizer, brought in a capacity crowd of over 200 entrepreneurs and other Global Entrepreneurship Week event participants. There were 65 events in Kansas City spread across a week and a half. But this event was different. This one was special.
Leaving presentations to chance is like embarking on a trip without a map (hat tip to Amanda Schnieders for the metaphor). If you don't know where you're headed and how you'll get there, you may not reach your destination.
What if we could take the top talent coming out of colleges and universities today, those that tend to feed into law school, med school, Wall Street and consulting, and put them in startups all over the country? Imagine the job growth possibilities we could create in the country just by giving recent graduates a taste of that entrepreneurial bug. Now, what if I told you there's an organization trying to do just that. Enter--Venture for America.
At the Kauffman Foundation, we recently announced a grant to a group that is trying to map and track where startups are around the world. The project--Startup Genome--is working "to build the most complete and accurate database of the world's startup communities, present it in useful, beautiful ways and provide tools and reports that community builders can use to gain insight into what's happening in their community. And make better decisions about how to grow it."
Crowdfunding is a hot topic in the entrepreneurship space these days. Many startups are asking about it, and are trying to decide if seeking funding from the crowd is the right for their company. Sensing this demand, we hosted a three hour event on the subject a few days ago which you can view here and here.

See the top 20 most helpful scuba gear reviews
Average Customer Review: based on 27 reviews.Rating: Ocean Quest Caribbean Full Foot Fins Review - Scuba Gear Reviews
Ok - thanks. Another question: can you give me how many inched long are the fins?(length). I want to get a bag and I need to know how long they are.
Hello Lisa, these fins are 24" in length. The bag that I would suggest for these fins is the: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-76/018207/Scuba-Mask--Fin---Snorkel-Backpack-Bag.html. If you would like to place an order or have any other questions please feel free to give us a call at 1.800.347.2822.
My husband wears an 11 E shoe size. His foot is very wide. What fin size would you suggest?
The only way to fit an extra wide foot is to go up one size. As long as the item is not used in the water you have up to 60 days to refund or exchange it.
Im taking a trip and want to do some snorkeling. My friend said they make fins that are shorter and easy for traveling with. I have long ones and they are a pain to bring along. Can you tell me which fins I should get.
My 16 yr old son, 6 ft 7 in, wears a 15 shoe. He wants a diving fin for springs areas down here in Florida. We do not want to pay much. Which fin do you suggest. This fin only goes up to size 13. Thanks. Kathy Sutton
I am looking for a fin which does not cause my feet to float to the surface so easily. What do you recommend? I prefer a closed toe. Thanks
Most all scuba and snorkeling fins are neutral to slightly negatively buoyant, but not all. Most all full foot fins have some sort of opening at the toe, whether it is small holes or a larger opening. This is designed to let the air escape the fin and keep it from popping off the feet easily when in use. Manufacturers rarely give information on the buoyancy of a fin so in the end, trial and error become your only real test.
I wear an 11 shoe. Obviously right at the edge of the 2 size groups. Which size do you think would work best?
I like my fins to be on the tight side. I am a seasoned snorkeling looking to upgrade my fins. What size would you recommend if I wear a 7.5 in sneakers? Also, how do these compare to the mare fins?
Id like to order these fins for my husband who needs a size 12. In the snorkel package, theyre available in a mens size 11-13, but the highest they go if I order individually is 9-11. Can I get them in size 11-13?
My son is going on his first diving trip and we are ordering the carribean snorkel set . What size fin he is about a 9 to 9.5 shoe
I wear a mens size 9 shoe and plan on wearing the fins with 3 mm dive socks. I also dont want the fins to be too loose. Would the 7-9 be too tight?
The Ocean Quest Caribbean Full Foot Fins are the perfect warm water answer for divers and snorkelers. The Caribbean Full Foot Fin features proven Channel Thrust Technology that reduces water spillage over the sides of the blade during the kick cycle to give the diver optimal performance.
The light weight blade packs well and is perfect for travel. It is designed using a durable hydro-plastic with a rubber center section that allows the fin to remain relatively soft and comfortable during those relaxing dives. As the diver exerts more effort in their kick it causes the rubberized portion of the fin to flex allowing the hydro-plastic portion to curve around it forming a water directing channel giving the diver increased efficiency. This forces the water down the blade, propelling the diver, rather than allowing the water to be wasted by spilling over the sides. Maintaining this optimal thrust throughout every phase of the finning stroke minimizes fatigue while maintaining consistent performance. Excellent blade snap offers additional performance on the normally weaker up-stroke of the diver's kick. The Caribbean Full Foot Fins are manufactured offered in blue with black accenting and available in shoe sizes 3-13.

Tuner & Metronome
A.Newly replaced strings will go out of tune easily for two reasons. First, when the new string is wrapped around the tuning peg, there's a slight gap between the peg and the string, and a few tunings are required before the string "snugs" itself against the peg. Second, the material that the string is made of is prone to a certain degree of stretching the first few times the string is brought up to tuning tension (this stretching is more pronounced with nylon strings than metal strings).
For these reasons, a single tuning is not enough to stabilize the tuning tension on new strings. For a short time, you will need to continually re-tune the strings until the described conditions stabilize.

Ned Yost reviews 2011, talks about 2012
As the 2011 season concludes for the Kansas City Royals, manager Ned Yost wrapped up the year with his final thoughts and statements in a press conference held today at Kauffman Stadium. Yost informed the media that bench coach John Gibbons and pitching coach Bob McClure will not be returning for the 2012 season. Gibbons had been with the Royals for three seasons after being named to the staff on October 13, 2008 and McClure had spent six seasons with the Royals. Yost praised both of the coaches for their time and talents that set a great foundation for KC's young squad.
Yost commented that the organization is looking for a bench coach to guide the squad's collection of young Latin catchers including Salvador Perez, Brayan Pena and Manny Pina. Yost stated that candidates for the pitching role will bring energy, a competitive spirit and a focused approach. Yost and the Royals organization agree that they have some big shoes to fill in both areas but are looking forward to adding to their coaching staff.
"They're really hard to find, so you have to find one like I did with Mike Maddux [former Milwaukee pitching coach, now with Texas]. We got Maddux out of Double-A," Yost said. "I'm looking for a guy that pitched in the big leagues for a long time with mediocre stuff… and those guys that have to work really hard at their game and have longevity usually are going to make dynamic pitching coaches."
Offensively and defensively the Royals squad made steps towards improving. Yost commented that he would like to see his players take more walks in the 2012 season but explains that everything comes with experience and time. For the rookies, the 2011 season has been full of learning experiences which will only help the team enter next season with a more relaxed approach. Yost praised his squad for surpassing his expectations during the 2o11 season and explains how the Royals organization has taken great strides to get where they are today.
"What Dayton has done here in the last five years in rebuilding this system has been amazing, with the scouts that he has hired, both professional and amateur, to get these players, to beat the bushes all over the country to find these special players and then turn them over to an outstanding player development staff that has worked for the last three and four and five years with these guys and getting them ready to get to this point," Yost said. "It's been tremendous and now we're starting to finally see it at the Major League level but it's still a process."
Minor league left-handed pitcher Mike Montgomery and Royals right-handed reliever Aaron Crow were mentioned by Yost as players that will have a chance to compete for a starting role. Yost commented that both the squad's rookies and veterans have impressed him during the month of September by pushing through, continuing to stay focused all the way till the very end.
"I've never seen a group of guys that played so hard in September, being in our situation, with their mindset to play hard, to finish the year out strong, and to get momentum going next year," Yost said. "They we're really focused and intent on doing that as a group."
The Royals will host the 2012 MLB All-Star Game on July 10. Yost served as an All-Star coach for Bobby Cox while with Atlanta. He explained that his previous experience with the All-Star Game was one of his greatest memories and beleives that it will be a memorable experience for the Royals organization, the squad, andKansas City. The Royals skipper encouraged fans and teams alike to enjoy all of the events, saying that it's something you'll never forget.

The Alphabet is inspired by the Chloé founder, Gaby Aghion, and her use of an unusual alphabetized naming convention for collections and garments. Through The Alphabet, the rich Chloé heritage is told: themes and stories relating to all 26 letters are brought to life via film, previously unseen archive imagery, past advertising, music and editorial. Each letter's content is released exclusively by a respected fashion blogger, before appearing here.
The Alphabet coincides with Chloé.Attitudes – an exhibition celebrating a 60-year contribution to fashion culture. Since 1952, from Gaby Aghion to its present Creative Director Clare Waight Keller, it has built an enviable legacy of luxury 'Prêt-a-Porter'. The exhibition, at Palais de Tokyo, Paris, takes a playful and thematic path through Chloé's creativity, pausing at key moments within its history.Discover The Alphabet
