With a history almost 200 years long, C.F. Martin & Co. is a company that's definitely backed by tradition. They're known primarily for their acoustic guitars, but that's not all they bring to the table: they also make their own line of strings. True to their heritage, most Martin strings are for acoustic guitar - but not all; if you play the bass guitar, banjo, mandolin or ukulele, you can find some strings for your instrument too.
If it is a set of acoustic guitar strings you're looking for, the huge variety available from Martin is sure to offer what you need. Most of these strings use classic bronze or phosphor-bronze construction, and the selection of gauges gives you plenty of options for feel, tone and specialty tunings. For educators or guitar professionals who need lots of spares on hand, Martin offers its most popular strings in packs of 3, 6 or even 12 to let you really stock up.
There's a lot to consider when picking out Martin strings, which is a good thing because it means more choice for you. Are you looking for the best durability? Try the Lifespan SP series, which have a coating that helps them last longer than typical strings. Do you want a set that's easier and more agile to fret, for complex play or learning? If so, the FX Flexible Core line is likely the way to go. They come in bronze, phosphor-bronze and silk-and-phosphor, each of which has its own characteristic feel and sound.
For instruments other than the guitar, Martin's strings are fewer but no less impressive. Take the M600 Standard Crystal Nylon Ukulele Strings, for instance. With these, Martin has improved on the typical nylon string by using a fluorocarbon material for better sound and longer life. Another good example of Martin's quality would be the V730 Medium Vega Banjo Strings, which are excellent all-around strings well-suited to every style of banjo playing.
As you look through the selection of Martin strings, one thing you'll notice is that the best part of all may be how affordable they are. It's not every day that you find a set of strings able to deliver such good results while fitting any budget. Martin definitely delivers, though, and you can't go wrong with the options found here.

FGDC Newsletter Winter 1998
1998 NSDI Partnership Funding Program Awards Announced
Projects Show NSDI Advancement
The FGDC has announced the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI) project funding awards for 1998. Awards are provided in three program areas: Cooperative Agreements Program (CAP), Benefits, and Framework Demonstration Projects Program (FDPP). These funding programs encourage organizations to develop data and operational components of the NSDI, to examine important issues affecting data sharing, and to find new ways to work together to develop the NSDI.
- "We are beginning to see the integration of all concepts of the NSDI in projects"
Bruce McKenzie, the CAP coordinator, and David Painter, the FDPP coordinator, see the projects developing over time. This year, many projects show advancement in the level of NSDI development and the complexity of issues addressed. "We are beginning to see the integration of all concepts of the NSDI in projects," commented McKenzie. "This year's projects involve all framework themes," added Painter. "In addition, projects are addressing complex subjects such as data integration."
Thirty-one CAP projects were awarded funding. The largest number involve clearinghouse activities. McKenzie believes that clearinghouse projects seem approachable to many participants. "People like to get involved in things they know they can do," he noted. "And it is a highly visible activity that is part of a growing network of clearinghouses across the country - even internationally." Other popular subjects include standards, coordination, and education. "We are now seeing more projects working on incorporating NSDI concepts into high school and college geoscience curricula," added McKenzie.
In the FDPP, 16 projects were funded. Transportation, hydrography, and cadastral data themes are prominent. Topics addressed by the projects include: integration of data from different sources, the National Hydrography Dataset, permanent feature identifiers, quality control and data certification, citizen access to framework data via the Internet, cost-benefit analysis of collaboration, and building institutions necessary to support their framework activities.
Five Benefits projects were funded: two addressing rural economic development, one on ocean management issues, an educational project, and an urban planning project.
- "The real challenge is to sustain the project after the grant period ends."
Since 1994 the funding programs have facilitated the development of the NSDI while helping organizations build their geographic data handling capabilities. The programs also have encouraged the sharing of data and ideas. "The real challenge," observed McKenzie, "is to sustain the project after the grant period ends," but he sees many projects achieving this goal. He added that "many past participants have said that as their projects mature, their organizations are realizing more benefits than they had originally anticipated." Both he and Painter emphasized that "keeping the vision going" is an important factor in building the NSDI and its community.
The 1999 NSDI Partnership Funding Program information and application materials will be available by the end of the year. See the FGDC website for more information about the 1998 projects and the 1999 program.
Vice President Gore Calls for Expanded NSDI in Speech on Smart Growth
On September 2, Vice President Gore called for stronger efforts nationwide to enhance the livability and economic competitiveness of American communities. In a major address at the Brookings Institution in Washington, DC, the vice president highlighted smart sustainable growth in cities, suburbs, and rural areas, saying, "In the future, livable communities will be the basis for our competitiveness and economic strength."
- Geographic information technologies will help communities help themselves by putting "more control, more information, more decision-making power into the hands of families, communities, and regions"
Geographic information technologies will help communities help themselves by putting "more control, more information, more decision-making power into the hands of families, communities, and regions - to give them all the freedom and flexibility they need to reclaim their own unique place in the world."
The federal government will expand its support for communities with tools, information, and new computer software to enable them to make easy-to- understand maps that show the different aspects of their regions - from farmlands to parks to buildings - and even predict future growth. These geographic information technologies will make it dramatically easier for communities to come together to envision and adopt land growth that suits them.
The vice president announced several administration initiatives targeted at the use of geographic information technologies in communities:
- Community Federal Information Partnerships.
The president's FY2000 budget will significantly expand grants for communities to gain access to the NSDI clearinghouse - a public-private resource that the vice president conceived as part of his reinventing government initiative in 1993 - and its implementing body, the FGDC.
- Demonstration Projects. (see following NSDI article)
Six demonstration projects are being launched in communities across the country to provide technical support for locally-driven efforts to address issues such as land use and crime prevention. The six communities are Dane County, Wisconsin; Gallatin County, Montana; Tillamook County, Oregon; Tijuana River Watershed, California; the Upper Susquehanna/Lackawanna River area; and the City of Baltimore.
- New Regional Efforts to Combat Crime.
A new regional pilot program will be started, in conjunction with the Justice Department, to apply regional mapping software to fighting crime in the Baltimore-Washington area. Communities in the region will be able to easily share crime data and engage in a cooperative regional crime reduction plan.
The vice president's announcement of increased support for the NSDI and the use of geographic information technologies highlights the importance of making information available to citizens in their communities. The NSDI is a coordinated approach to help improve the way communities and the nation acquire, disseminate, and use geographic information. John Moeller, FGDC staff director, commented that "the continued development of the NSDI to support community-driven solutions is a tribute to the willingness and ability of all levels of government, the private sector, and academia to work together and cut across traditional organizational and administrative boundaries."
NSDI Community Demonstration Projects
Creating Locally-Driven Electronic Government
Vice President Gore's National Partnership for Reinventing Government is sponsoring six NSDI Community Demonstration Projects to support the use of geographic data for decision-making in local areas. These projects are being coordinated with the FGDC and will be implemented in cities, counties, and watershed areas across the country to illustrate the use of geographic information and the benefits of improved liaison between federal and local communities. Each project will address different issues, such as crime prevention and reduction, watershed and water quality management, disaster preparedness and recovery, and urban growth and land use planning. The demonstration period will run from July 1998 through May 2000.
The following communities were selected for this demonstration effort:
- In Dane County, Wisconsin, the project will create a citizen-based, online, smart growth planning process to protect farmland and open space and address environmental concerns, while sustaining continued growth. Contacts: Ben Niemann, University of Wisconsin-Madison, 608-263-5534, email@example.com and Gale TeSelle, Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources and Conservation Service, 202-720-4442, email@example.com.
- Gallatin County, Montana, just north of Yellowstone National Park, contains extensive areas of public lands, and is experiencing rapid population growth. This community's project will develop tools for the county government to access integrated federal, state, and local information, consider population impacts, and understand alternatives for growth, and the effects of their decisions on the community. Contacts: Dale Beland, Gallatin County 406-582-3130; Paul Dresler, Department of the Interior, 202-208-3024; and Peggy Harwood, Bureau of Land Management, 202-452-0362, email@example.com.
- Tillamook County, Oregon will support a public/private partnership by creating online web-based tools for reporting and accountability. Citizens and local, state, and federal government agencies will be able to monitor and report progress toward common goals for water quality, flood mitigation, and fish habitat restoration. Contacts: Tom Ascher, Tillamook Planning District, 503-842-3408, email@example.com and Norma Campbell, Department of the Interior, 202-208-1818, firstname.lastname@example.com.
- The Susquehanna-Lackawanna River partnership in central and northeastern Pennsylvania will provide an integrated regional GIS to help local communities support an environmental master plan, flood mitigation, and performance monitoring for one of the American Heritage Rivers. Contacts: Greg Karmazin, Kings College Map Center, 703-486-8254, email@example.com and Dave Catlin, Environmental Protection Agency, 202-260-3069, firstname.lastname@example.com.
- The Tijuana River Watershed is one of the most populous and environmentally stressed areas along the U.S. and Mexico border. With new tools and integrated data, this local, state, federal, and international partnership will demonstrate an online decision-support capability to improve water quality and availability and to promote better health. Contacts: Richard Wright, San Diego State University, 619-594-5466, firstname.lastname@example.com and Nina Garfield, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, 301-713-3141 x171, firstname.lastname@example.com.
- The Baltimore Maryland City Police Department will apply GIS tools and integrated data to support the development of CrimeStac, a comprehensive digital mapping center to track crime and related trends (e.g., housing, public health), creating a world-class model for crime reduction information. Contacts: Mary McClinton, Baltimore Police Department, 410-396-2093 and John DeVoe, Department of Justice, 202-514-8510, firstname.lastname@example.com.
The Community Demonstration Projects will provide NSDI training and result in a clearinghouse of spatial data for each community linked to the National Spatial Data Clearinghouse. Community and federal project managers participated in a successful kickoff meeting October 22 and 23 in Reston, VA. Each community shared their success story and demonstrated the positive effects for planning, environmental protection, and crime reduction. The project leader for the National Partnership for Reinventing Government is Mark Reichardt, who can be reached at 202-694-0081, firstname.lastname@example.com. Mark DeMulder will assume leadership January 1999.

News about NSDI Initiatives
DOJ Joins the FGDC
In August 1998, the Department of Justice (DOJ) became the 16th federal cabinet-level member of the FGDC. In her letter to Bruce Babbitt, FGDC chair, Attorney General Janet Reno expressed support for the NSDI. She also cited the growing use of geographic information by criminal justice organizations to address and prevent crimes as an important factor behind DOJ participation.
FGDC Secretariat
New FGDC Staff
Kim Burns-Braidlow joined the FGDC staff in December 1997 as executive secretary for the FGDC Coordination Group and Steering Committee. She also serves as executive secretary for the Department of Interior Geographic Data Committee and as the federal liaison for the 16 federal agencies of the FGDC. One of her current projects is to develop a report to the Office of Management and Budget summarizing 1998 NSDI developments, including the accomplishments of all subcommittees, working groups, and federal agencies.
Kim joined the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in 1989, at the Mid-Continent Mapping Center in Rolla, Missouri. While there, she earned a certificate from the USGS's cartographer development program. She also holds a BS in business administration from Drury College in Missouri.
Early Results for the Framework Data Survey
Results of the Framework Data Survey, conducted by the National States Geographic Information Council (NSGIC), will soon be available. At the annual NSGIC meeting in Annapolis, September 12-17, participants responded enthusiastically to a preview of preliminary survey data and results. The data already are providing some valuable insights regarding framework data availability, characteristics, and development.
More than 5,400 survey responses were received by the survey closing date of October 3. The data are now being analyzed and prepared for distribution. A preview report on the survey findings will appear as a supplement to Geo Info Systems early in 1999. The national technical report will be published in mid-1999. The data will be available on the web so everyone can use them. Further information about the schedule and format for the web-based data will be provided on the FGDC website.
Cadastral Subcommittee Develops Online Education
The FGDC Cadastral Subcommittee has developed an online course for learning the Cadastral Data Content Standard. The course is meant to help students understand the uses and benefits of the standard and assist those who will be using the standard to develop a physical data design. It is designed primarily for subject area specialists in cadastral data, data analysts working with cadastral data, systems analysts designing and developing systems for cadastral applications, and users working with cadastral transactions. The course objectives are to provide information about the standard and examples of its uses. The course consists of eight modules covering the purpose and benefits of the standard, the development of the standard, other standards and related activities, data modeling, practical uses of the standard, standard compliance, maintenance, and support. For more information, see the course website at http://www.fairview-industries.com/intro.htm.
FGDC Conducts Registered Review of ISO Metadata Standard
From July 13 through September 11, 1998, the FGDC conducted a registered review of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Metadata Standard Committee Draft 14046-12. More than 210 individuals registered to review the standard draft. The reviewers represented a diverse group, composed of 70 representatives from the federal government, 39 from the commercial sector, 34 from educational institutions, 23 from state government, 13 from local government, 5 from the defense sector, and the remainder representing independent interests. More than 500 comments were received and adjudicated by a group (selected from the registrants) representing a cross section of the national geospatial community. The adjudicated comments were sent to the American National Standards Institute and consolidated with other national comments. The entire set of comments was forwarded to the ISO in late October.
The FGDC thanks everyone who participated in the review. The effort helped the FGDC better understand and communicate concerns and issues regarding the ISO Metadata Standard.
Correction: The correct website address for the New York State Clearinghouse, discussed in the summer issue of the Newsletter, is http://nysgis.nysed.gov/gis/.
AMERICAN FORESTS Conducts Geographic Information Study
AMERICAN FORESTS recently published the findings from a nationwide survey it conducted on the use and institutionalization of geographic information technology. The project was accomplished with assistance from the National Association of Counties, the International City/County Management Association, and others. The survey targeted a selected sample of 200 of the country's largest cities and counties: 120 cities with populations of more than 25,000 and 80 counties with populations of more than 50,000. The study found that the use of geographic information systems (GIS) is growing, with 77% of responding localities reporting some GIS use in 1996 and 87% predicting use in 1997. Respondents in the west and the south reported the most extensive GIS use, while those in the northeast reported the least. The results also showed an expanding range of departments and applications that use geographic information technology. The most frequently cited applications were planning, public works, and utilities. Commonly used data sets included framework themes, land use, zoning, utilities, and rights of way. Local leaders' top concerns suggest further expansion of GIS use, particularly to address their priorities. The study report, Geographic Information in Cities and Counties: A Nationwide Assessment, was authored by Lisa Warnecke, Cheryl Kollin, Jeff Beattie, and Winifred Lyday. For more information, contact AMERICAN FORESTS at P.O. Box 2000, Washington, DC 20013, or visit their website at http://www.amfor.org.

Ouachita Baptist University's School of Fine Arts will present its 22nd annual production of A Festival of Christmas on Nov. 22 and 23 at 7:30 p.m. in Jones Performing Arts Center. Tickets are $10 each and can be purchased at www.obu.edu/boxoffice. Current Ouachita students receive one free ticket with their IDs.
"A Festival of Christmas is one of our biggest productions and reaches one of the largest audiences for the School of Fine Arts," said Dr. Gary Gerber, musical director of A Festival of Christmas. Gerber also serves as chair of the Division of Music, director of choral activities and professor of music.
A Festival of Christmas began in 1992 following the opening of Jones Performing Arts Center. "The president at the time, Dr. Ben Elrod, wanted to have a big showcase event," said Gerber. "Dr. Charles Wright, who was dean of OBU's School of Fine Arts at the time, came up with an idea of doing a big Christmas production." With that, A Festival of Christmas was born and has been an annual event ever since.
"It is a festive celebration of the birth of Christ and is a gift from OBU to the community of Arkadelphia and surrounding cities, as well," said Dr. Becky Morrison, director of Women's Chorus and assistant professor of music.
"A Festival of Christmas is not just a regular concert with the normal Ouachita audience," Gerber added. A large percentage of the audience comes from various church groups that attend A Festival of Christmas on a regular basis, "as a way of starting off their holiday season."
While the production typically takes place at the beginning of December, this year's concert will occur earlier due to an unusually late Thanksgiving. With only one week of classes left in the semester following Thanksgiving break, the School of Fine Arts wanted to reserve that time for students to focus on their finals.
Highlighting the theme, "Celebrate the Season," A Festival of Christmas will still present audience members with beloved Christmas tunes as in years past. According to Gerber, the show will begin by celebrating "the secular aspects of Christmas," with Santa Clause, reindeer, sleighs and other typical winter scenes. Songs such as "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town," "Blue Christmas" and "The Christmas Waltz" will be presented during this portion of the production.
The second half of the show will "move into more of the traditional, sacred songs," Gerber said. "Mary Did You Know?", "Let Us Adore Him" and "O, Holy Night" are a few of the songs that will be included in the sacred half of A Festival of Christmas.
Five performing groups will make up this year's production: Ouachita Singers and Concert Choir, both directed by Gerber; Ouachita Sounds, directed by Mary Worthen, assistant professor emerita of music; Women's Chorus, directed by Morrison; and the Ouachita Pit Band, which will feature the division's instrumental students.
Also included will be the Festival of Christmas Dancers, members of the concert choir who will provide visual aesthetics by dancing and acting. Dr. Scott Holsclaw, dean of OBU's School of Fine Arts, will serve as stage director and Stacy Hawking, a sophomore musical theatre major from Sherwood, Ark., will serve as choreographer.
"All the groups draw together to pull off the production and be a part of A Festival of Christmas," said Gerber.
Tickets are $10 each and may be purchased at the Jones Performing Arts Center Box Office weekdays from 1-5 p.m. Tickets may also be purchased online at www.obu.edu/boxoffice. Students with a valid OBU ID may receive one free ticket. For more information, call the box office at (870) 245-5555 during business hours.
Ouachita Baptist University's Jazz Band will perform a concert at Jones Performing Arts Center on Monday, Nov. 25 at 7:30 p.m. The band will perform a variety of genres ranging from swing to hip-hop. The concert is free and open to the public.
"Students should definitely come to the jazz concert," said Brent Nessler, a senior music education major from Rowlett, Texas, who plays tenor saxophone in the band. "It's always a fun night displaying all sorts of jazz, funk, Latin and even some pop tunes."
By attending the event "students at OBU will gain an appreciation for the jazz genre of music," said Bret Steed, a senior music performance major form Idabel, Okla., who plays trombone. "The Jazz Band concert has something for everyone. Their feet will be tapping, bodies will be moving and hearts will be racing."
Nessler added that he loves when people approach him "after a performance to say that they had never listened to jazz before but because of the concert have gained a real interest in the art."
"I love working with the students," said Jazz Band Director Dr. Craig Hamilton. "I enjoy watching them grow and improve from the first rehearsal to the concert. I enjoy making music with the band." Hamilton also serves as OBU's director of bands and the Lena Goodwin Trimble Professor of Music.
The Jazz Band concert set list includes: "18th Circle" by Dave Mills; "On Green Dolphin Street" by Bronislau Kaper and Ned Washington and arranged by Frank Mantooth; "Sway" by Norman Gimbel and Pablo Beltran Ruiz and arranged by Mark Taylor; "Brother Mister" by Christian McBride and arranged by Mike Kamuf; "Vertigo" by Doug Beach; "The Man I Love" by George and Ira Gershwin and arranged by Dave Wolpe; "Afro Blue" by Mongo Santamaria and arranged by Michael Philip Mossman; "Don't Stop Believin'" by Steve Perry, Neal Schon and Jonathan Cain and arranged by Paul Baker; "Don't Know Why" by Jesse Harris and arranged by Paul Murtha; "Every Little Thing She Does is Magic" by Sting and arranged by Paul Murtha; and "Barbeque" by Mike Carubia.
Each year, a featured vocal soloist is chosen by audition. This year, Carli Sasser, a senior music education major from Hamburg, Ark., won the role. She will sing in "The Man I Love," "Sway," and "Don't Know Why."
In addition to Nessler, Jazz Band saxophonists include: Zach Barber, a sophomore music education major from Mansfield, Texas, on alto saxophone; Allison King, a senior music education major from Fort Worth, Texas, on alto saxophone; and Chelsea Villanueva, a junior music education major Bentonville, Ark., on tenor saxophone.
On the trumpets are: Lindsay Palmer, a sophomore music education major from Idabel, Okla.; Alexandra Lawson, a freshman accounting major from Texarkana, Texas; Kelly Cortez, a junior biology and Spanish major from McKinney, Texas; and Kacie Richards, a freshman biology major from Springdale, Ark.
In addition to Steed, trombones players include: Jason Potts, a freshman music education major from Springdale, Ark.; Kaden Sosebee, a sophomore Christian studies major from Fort Smith, Ark.; and Dalton King, a freshman music education major from Greenwood, Ark.
On the piano is Weston Wills, a freshman music education major from Norphlet, Ark. On the guitar is Garrett Lee, a freshman music major from Searcy, Ark. On the bass is Justin Massey, a sophomore music education major from Weatherford, Texas. On the drums are Drew Ervin, a senior music and computer science major from Springdale, Ark., and Stephen Vaughn, a freshman church music major from Hot Springs, Ark.

A Service of Lessons and Carols has been a tradition at Ouachita since 1997. The traditional worship service dates back to 1880 in England. It was adopted by the chapel at King's College in Cambridge in 1918 and was later broadcast around the world by the BBC on both radio and television.
The following groups will perform a variety of seasonal carols: Ouachita Singers, conducted by Dr. Gary Gerber, professor of music and director of choral activities; Women's Chorus, conducted by Dr. Becky Morrison, assistant professor of music; and Handbell Ringers, conducted by Dr. Rob Hewell, associate professor of music and director of OBU's Worship Studies Program. Congregational carols will be accompanied by organist Adam Haas.
"As we sing the glorious songs of the season, we are all drawn into the great redemptive narrative of Scripture," said Hewell. "We join our hearts and voices in a holy unison reminding us that the gospel is meant for all people in all places and in all times."
Students, faculty, staff and administrators will read selected Old and New Testament scripture passages throughout the service.
The student readers for this year's service include: Amber Easterly, a freshman business administration and management major from Bryant, Ark.; AlleaBelle Gongola, a sophomore psychology major from Dardanelle, Ark.; Hailee Bezet, a junior mass communications and speech communication major from Conway, Ark.; and Korey Byrd, a senior early childhood education major from Cypress, Texas.
Staff, faculty and administration readers include: Tracey Knight, administrative assistant for the Pruet School of Christian Studies; Carol Morgan, associate professor of communication disorders; Dr. Scott Holsclaw, dean of the School of Fine Arts; Dr. Doug Reed, associate vice president for academic affairs and LaDelle Moody Professor of Pre-Law Studies; and Dr. Rex Horne, president. Ian Cosh, vice president for community and international engagement, will continue his annual role as narrator and prayer leader.
"Lessons and Carols is one of the most meaningful services of the Christmas season and of our entire year," said Horne. "I enjoy being present in the service and participating as the last reader."

Ouachita Baptist University will host the Tiger Steel Drum Ensemble's first fall concert on Wednesday, Dec. 4, at 8 p.m. in Mabee Fine Art Center's McBeth Recital Hall. The performance is free and open to the public.
Tiger Steel, directed by Dr. Ryan Lewis, specializes in the performance of calypso and soca (soul/calypso) music from the Caribbean nation of Trinidad and Tobago – the birthplace of steel drums – but also performs a wide variety of styles from jazz, pop and rock to classical, funk and Latin.
"Founded in 2013, Tiger Steel is made up of undergraduate students from departments across campus and countries around the world," Lewis said. "Tiger Steel is open to all students on campus, which gives the ensemble a uniqueness and variety in musicians."
According to Lewis, "Tiger Steel is a unique ensemble for its commitment to community involvement. Each steel band member mentors a middle school student in the Clark County Boys and Girls Club Steel Band at Goza Middle School who perform beside their student mentors in mass steel band concerts each year."
In addition to performing steel drum concerts on campus, in public schools and private events, members study the social, historical and cultural context of the instrument, as well as musical aspects such as theory, acoustics, tuning, arranging and composing, Lewis noted.
The Dec. 4 program will include the calypso songs "Jump in the Line" and "Jamaican Farewell" made popular by singer Harry Belafonte, "Suzie" by Ray Holman and "Soca Tatie" by Byron Lee. They also will present the Latin-pop songs "Oye Como Va" by Tito Puente, "I Know You Want Me" by Pitbull and the anonymous steel band standard "El Montuno." To add some variety, they also will perform "St. Thomas" by jazz legend Sonny Rollins and the classical piano piece "Gymnopedie No. 1″ by composer Erik Satie.
The members include: Elizabeth Baker, a senior music performance major from Grapevine, Texas; Aaron Breeding, a freshman instrumental music education major from Springdale, Ark.; Leslie Colbert, a sophomore music major from Beebe, Ark.; Carter Harlan, a sophomore instrumental music education major from Fayetteville, Ark.; Chris Hogan, a junior instrumental music education major from Bartlesville, Okla.; Kristen Liles, a freshman pre-physical therapy major from Whitehouse, Texas; Andre Morman, a freshman education major from Richardson, Texas; Van O'Rorke, a freshman instrumental music education major from Hot Springs, Ark.; John David Whitmore, a junior music major from Rogers, Ark.; Nat Williams, a sophomore music theory and composition major from Little Rock, Ark.; and Cat Williams, a sophomore biology major from Roland, Ark.
Tiger Steel performed their first concert last spring and now presents a campus concert each fall and spring semester, as well as a joint concert with Club Steel from the Boys and Girls Club of Clark County each spring. The joint concert is called Panorama and features both steel bands performing independently and together.
Lewis, assistant professor of percussion, teaches applied percussion, percussion techniques and music history. He directs the Percussion Ensemble, Tiger Drum Line and Tiger Steel Drum Band. Lewis has served on the music faculties of Claflin University, the University of South Carolina and Florida State University.

Stage II hub-to-hub Front Suspension - Fatman Fabrications - Fleetline FixWritten by on March 17, 2008 IFS Upgrade Kit And Problem Solving
The wrenches are starting to turn on our friend Joe's '51 Fleetline project and we're pretty excited. After the previous owners had the near-stock Chevy hauled to Los Angeles from the eastern U.S. a bunch of years ago, there hadn't been much progress on the car. Joe owns it now and is eager to build it up into a mild custom and get it back on the road where it belongs. The plans are to keep it low-key. That means keeping the inline-six engine and the stock three-on-the-tree transmission and a generally stock look, but making a few upgrades to let the Fleetline compete with 2008 traffic on Southern California freeways and streets.
The first finished upgrade was a Fatman Fabrications Stage II hub-to-hub front suspension setup. We were at CMC Designs to follow along as Craig Chaffers and Jake Encinas pulled out the stock suspension and assembled the new Mustang II kit. They had already removed the inner fenderwells when we got there, so the car was on jackstands and the stock suspension was ready to come out. The installation on the new pieces was straightforward and quick, but, as with many hot rod projects, there was a lot of preparation work required before that could happen. Take a look at what's involved in the job.
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
When we got to the shop, the components from the Fatman Stage II hub-to-hub frontend kit were laid out on the bench, ready to go.A length of angle bar was temporarily welded across the 'rails to brace the frame, keep everything level, and prevent things from shifting after the frontend was pulled out.The centerline is equally critical when positioning the shock hats on top of the 'rails. The hats must be mounted on the axle centerline as well as at the proper distance left to right.Placed in position on the 'rails, the centerline of the hats was determined and marked (arrow). As you can see, the inside edge of the hat is cut at an angle that positions the hat at a rear downward rake on the frame.A gusseted spacer, included in the kit, was welded to the rear side of the new crossmember at each end and will be used to mount the rearward tube of each lower control arm.A notch needed to be cut into the inside edge of each hat in order for them to fit flush over the framerails. Because 'rail widths vary, the notches are not cut by Fatman.The original crossmember on '49-54 Chevys attaches to mounting brackets (Fatman calls them "V" brackets) located on the outside of the 'rails (one on each side).You can see the notch in the hat better (arrow) from underneath. Also note the crossmember MIG-welded to the 'rails with the gusseted spacer pointing to the rear.
The upper control arms were fastened to the shock towers. The arms were bolted from underneath, with the nuts on top. This setup, along with the slotted mounting holes, allows for easy caster and camber adjustment after everything is assembled.The kit also includes rack-and-pinion steering, and tie-rod ends. Power steering is available, but a manual system is being installed on the Chevy.Although the hats are angled from front to back, the side-to-side angle must be kept horizontal. The tubing was removed once the hats were TIG-welded to the 'rails.Standard-height spindles came with the package Craig ordered for the Fleetline, but he may swap them for Fatman 2-inch dropped spindles before the project is finished.After much anticipation, it was time to assemble and install the lower tubular A-arms. The shock mounting plate and urethane spring support was added to the lower arms.

Both event times are now sold out!
Click here for tickets.
The Bible repeatedly uses "father," "husband," "bride" and "child" analogies to demonstrate God's relationship with the church and his followers. There is no better example of the unconditional love God has for us than what we are instructed to have for our spouse and children. Building upon these themes, Love Worth Fighting For is a marriage event, featuring teaching by Kirk Cameron and music by Warren Barfield, designed to strengthen and encourage your marriage.
About Kirk Cameron
Kirk is best known for his memorable role of "Mike Seaver", a cultural icon of the 80′s, with his mullet hairstyle, cool glasses, and wisecracking comebacks. More recently he enjoyed much success with the #1 grossing inspirational film of 2008, Fireproof, and his recent documentary, Monumental. His company, CAMfam Studios, has released his latest film, Unstoppable. His speaking tour, Love Worth Fighting For, is a marriage event held in churches and has been hosted in over 150 cities. Kirk and his wife, Chelsea, were on-screen sweethearts during Growing Pains years and are the founders of Camp Firefly, where terminally and seriously ill children and their families are provided an all-expense paid retreat (www.CampFirefly.com). Together, Kirk and Chelsea live in California with their six children.
About Warren Barfield
North Carolina-born singer/songwriter Warren Barfield is on a mission to make the truly important things important again in his life. Things like faith, love, marriage, children, truth, and with his songs, he challenges us all to do the same. Martin Luther King Jr. said, "If a man hasn't discovered something that he will die for, he isn't fit to live." Warren has found those things in his faith, his wife, and his belief in love. "These are the things I would die for; things I will wake up every morning andspend my day fighting for."
This event is going to be very exciting! Do you have these events in Spanish? There is so much need for Spanish marrigage events in our area!

Jeffry Hysong has been kind enough to convert the complete Vintyri (TM) Cartographic Collection into individual brushes and patterns for The GIMP. The package now is available for free downloading at our web site. It is released for free commercial and personal use under the OGL 1.0a. The collection includes five sets of brushes, most of which are structures based upon historical medieval buildings in Europe. There are more than 1,000 symbols or objects in this group. The sixth set includes more than 100 fill patterns or textures which are available as both GIMP brushes and GIMP patterns.
Because of the download size (total 760 MB) and the desire of some users to download only certain groups of brushes, the package has been broken down into 17 separate ZIP files. We strongly suggest that users first download the free PDF Vintyri Cartographic Collection Guide which shows the complete content of each catalog. It is available at:
http://www.vintyri.org/downloads/vintyricc.zip (62 MB)
This PDF booklet also includes photos of many of the historical objects that were used as prototypes for the GIMP brushes.
To download the brushes and patterns, go to the Vintyri web site:
and pick the Vintyri Cartographic Collection option.
Please note that the Cartographic Collection originally was released for Fractal Mapper (TM) 8 and Dundjinni (TM). A Campaign Cartographer (TM) 3 version also is in development. The first two sets out of six for CC3 also are available.

MIDLAND CITY, Ala. -- A man fatally shot the driver of a school bus in Alabama and fled with a 6-year-old child passenger, holding him Wednesday in an underground bunker behind a church during a night-long standoff with police, authorities and reports said.
The Dale County Sheriff told WBMA-TV that the man shot the driver in Midland City on Tuesday afternoon when he refused to let the child off the bus. The driver later died of his wounds. His identity wasn't released.
Michael Senn, a local minister, told WSFA-TV that one girl who was on the bus said the gunman man ordered most of the students off the vehicle. He then grabbed a young boy and shot the bus driver four times, Senn said.
He told WSFA that one 13-year-old on the bus was "really traumatized" by the incident.
Alabama State troopers, a SWAT team and FBI agents quickly converged nearby.
Authorities communicated with the gunman through a PVC pipe connected to the bunker, WSFA reported.
WDHN-TV reporter Josh Rultenberg told CNN Wednesday that the 65-year-old suspect had been building the bunker for several months and had enough food inside to stay for four months.
Nearby residents were evacuated from their homes as a precautionary measure, said Rachel David, a spokeswoman for the police department in the nearby town of Dothan.
"Authorities also confirmed the presence of a child at the scene but are giving no further information at this time," David said in a news release late Tuesday.

Best way to Treat Chronic Renal Failure
Chronic renal failure is a very serious disease. It is a physiological disease which affects the kidneys. It restricts the kidneys from performing in their full capacity thus the name "failure". The kidney has the functions of filtering and removing the waste products in the blood. It also regulates the electrolytes. All these functions are very important in the body of a dog or cat as it is used to taking a lot of things that add impurities to the blood. This disease starts attacking from the inside. Thus it becomes hard to identify the symptoms early enough. By the time they are recognized, the disease has already heavily affected the kidneys and they are performing at a low rate.
There are symptoms that the pet owner can identify to relate with this kidney failure. They include:
• Unkempt far
• Increased thirst and urination-these is a clear sign of kidney failure.
• Diarrhea and vomiting
• Lack of appetite- this can be noticed by giving it milk and it not taking
• Muscular weakness
• Depression
All these symptoms are visible one at a time. It is advised in case such a symptom is observed, the pet owner should rush to the veterinary to have it checked.
There is treatment though for renal failure in cats and dogs. This is through the help of a drug by the name

Kidney Cancer Program
Kidney Cancer Symptoms Treatment and Diagnosis

Kidney Cancer Overview
UCLA's Kidney Cancer Program is a world-renowned kidney cancer treatment program, dedicated to providing the highest quality of patient care, research, training and education of kidney cancer for the past 21 years, and is affiliated with the Institute of Urologic Oncology and the Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center. UCLA's Kidney Cancer Program has long utilized a pioneering multidisciplinary approach to treating kidney cancer patients that includes urologists, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, pathologists, radiologists and clinical trial nurses that allows for specialized perspectives for deciding upon the best option for each individual patient.
Video: Innovations in Treating Bladder and Kidney Cancer
UCLA urologist, Karim Chamie, MD, MSHS, presented a live-streaming webinar to discuss new cancer treatments that do not require the unnecessary removal of the kidney or bladder. Affiliated: Bladder Cancer » | Kidney Cancer »
The UCLA Kidney Cancer Program prides itself on the achievements made in its state-of-the-art research and translational laboratory. Our highly experienced and dedicated basic science researchers work diligently to develop new, more effective treatments for kidney cancer and have pioneered numerous medical advances.
Kidney Cancer Program Achievements »
For decades, UCLA's Kidney Cancer Program has prided itself on being able to offer patients access to ground-breaking experimental drugs in its Clinical Trials Program that allows patients to receive tomorrow's approved drugs today. Until such time as a cure for this disease is found, the primary objective is focused on providing first-rate care for our patients, while making it possible for them to carry on a high quality of life.

About Kidney Cancer
According to the American Cancer Society, an estimated 58,240 people in the United States will be diagnosed with kidney cancer (35,370 men and 22,870 women) and about 13,040 people will die from this disease. As with all cancers, early diagnosis of kidney cancer dramatically improves the chance for survival. Although the prognosis is relatively poor for kidney cancer that is advanced (metastasized), promising new treatments for kidney cancer are improving the outlook for patients.
Kidney Anatomy
Most people have two kidneys.
- The kidneys produce urine, which drains through narrow tubes (called ureters) into the urinary bladder (Figure 1).
- The kidneys are located toward the back of the flank, with one kidney on either side (Figure 2).
- The kidney is contained within a fibrous layer called Gerota's Fascia (Figure 3).
Within this fascia is a layer of fat that surrounds the kidney. The kidney has a thin outer capsule (analogous to the red external layer of an apple). The primary vein that drains the kidney (renal vein) merges with the vein that takes blood to the heart (vena cava). The term "renal" means pertaining to the kidney.
Kidney Function
The main function of the kidneys is to produce urine. However, the kidney accomplishes many other important functions during urine production. By adjusting the composition of the urine, the kidney regulates the body's electrolytes (e.g. sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, etc.), regulates the body's fluid balance, regulates the body's acid-base balance and eliminates certain waste products made by the body.
When the kidneys are damaged or a significant portion of kidney tissue is removed, its normal processes may be impaired. In most cases, mild to moderate impairment causes very minor problems. In cases when kidney function is severely impaired, dialysis may be required.

Types of Kidney Cancer
Renal Kidney Cancer
Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) is the most common type of kidney cancer, accounting for approximately 85% of all malignant kidney tumors. In RCC, cancerous (malignant) cells develop in the lining of the kidney tubules and grow into a mass called a tumor. Like many other cancers, the growth begins small and grows larger over time. RCC typically grows as a single mass. However, there are cases where a kidney may contain more than one tumor, or tumors are found in both kidneys at the same time.
Sub-Types of Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC):
There are five main sub-types of renal cell carcinoma that are identified by examining the tumor under a microscope: clear cell, papillary, chromophobe, collecting duct and "unclassified."
More about sub-types of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) »
Other Types of Cancerous Kidney Tumors
RCC accounts for about 90% of malignant kidney tumors. Less common types of cancerous tumors include transitional cell carcinomas, Wilms tumors and renal sarcomas.
About transitional cell carcinoma and benign kidney tumors »
Incidence – Risk Factors
Renal and Adrenal Tumors Biology and Management
Studies have shown that certain lifestyle, environmental and heredity factors increase the risk of developing renal tumors. Although we do not know all the causes of kidney cancer, the following factors may increase the risk of developing this disease:
- Age. The risk of kidney cancer significantly increases with age, most kidney cancers occur in people over 45 years of age; with the highest incidences between the ages of 55 and 84.
- Gender. Men are twice as likely to develop kidney cancer as women.
- Race. African American men have a slightly higher risk than Caucasian men of developing renal cell carcinoma.
- Smoking. Smokers are at greater risk than nonsmokers. The risk increases the longer you smoke and decreases after you quit, although it takes years to reach the same risk level as someone who has never smoked.
- Obesity. Studies have found a strong link between excess weight (in both men and women) and renal cell carcinoma.
- High blood pressure (hypertension). Having high blood pressure increases the risk of developing renal cell carcinoma. The risk is even greater if you are also overweight.
- Dialysis. People who receive long-term dialysis for treatment of chronic renal failure are at greater risk of developing kidney cancer, possibly because renal failure depresses the immune system. People who have a kidney transplant and receive immunosuppressant drugs also are more likely to develop kidney cancer.
- Radiation. In some cases, exposure to radiation may increase your risk of kidney cancer.
- Heredity. Tuberous sclerosis (a disease characterized by several bumps on the skin, seizures, mental retardation, and cysts in the kidneys, liver and pancreas) and von Hippel-Lindau disease (a disease caused by a genetic mutation that leads to multiple tumors in the kidney, often at an early age) are both associated with an increased risk of developing kidney tumors. Most often in tuberous sclerosis the tumors are benign. However, in von Hippel-Lindau disease, the tumors are usually malignant.

I voted.I'm not saying who I voted for, but I will say that it wasn't either of the two major parties.
Uhhh.... Gus Hall?
+1I rarely vote for Rep or Dem presidential candidates. Both have ideals I like and ideals I really hate. People say I'm throwing my vote away, but I say unless you vote for someone you actually believe in, rather than picking either side of a coin, then you are the one throwing your vote away.
Over the years, we've had several elections where third (or fourth?) parties not only ran but won.

Bertram Lubin, M.D.
An executive officer of a California Research Institute
Appointed by the Controller
Dr. Lubin is currently serving as the President & Chief Executive Officer, Children's Hospital & Research Center Oakland .
Throughout his career in medicine, Dr. Lubin has directed his energies to fostering biomedical research and has been involved in a number of clinical and basic research projects. His primary research interest has been in sickle cell disease. He developed a Sickle Cell Screening, Counseling, and Education Program at Children's Hospital Oakland (CHO), and subsequently with a UCSF colleague, started the Northern California Comprehensive Sickle Cell Center, a program that is in its thirty sixth year of NIH funding. Lubin was a member of the NIH Executive Committee that initiated the Cooperative Study of Sickle Cell Disease, a program that supported clinical research in sickle cell disease for over fifteen years.
In addition to his interest in clinical hematology, Lubin directed a NIH-funded basic research program to study membrane phospholipid organization in human red blood cells. His group discovered that alterations in membrane phospholipids occurred when cells containing sickle hemoglobin were deoxygenated and that these changes could contribute to clinical events that occur in sickle cell anemia.
Dr. Lubin began the Children's Hospital Oakland Sibling Donor Cord Blood Program, the first non-profit program of its kind. The program is offered to families across the United States who currently have a child with a blood disorder such as sickle cell anemia, thalassemia, aplastic anemia, or leukemia, and are expecting another child. Following the birth of a healthy child, blood remaining in the placenta (cord blood) is harvested. Because cord blood is enriched with bone marrow cells, it is cyropreserved and can later be used for transplantation. A number of lives have been saved following transplantation with cord blood units collected in this program.
Dr. Lubin has many general interests in pediatric research and research education. These range from asthma, obesity, diabetes, and nutrition to studies of the neonate. He is particularly interested in how environmental factors interact with genetics to cause disease. He has been involved in the UC Berkeley Pediatric Environmental Health Center, providing core laboratory services to investigate the effects of pesticide exposure during pregnancy on the health of children. He has also been the director of the NIH-funded Pediatric Clinical Research Center at Children's Hospital Oakland and the director of an Institutional Post-Doctoral Training Program, and currently serves as the Principal Investigator of a Short Term Minority Training Program for Undergraduate Students, also NIH-supported. He participates in a number of projects with NIH staff, has served on many NIH peer-review committees, has been a reviewer for many biomedical scientific journals, and is on a number of biomedical advisory committees.

You also said Chicago DMA ... which most certainly includes Hammond, IN. I figured you'd try to redefine and squirm out of it.
Well, yea...Chicago proper would NOT be in Hammond IN, would it; it would be Hammond IN proper.
So yea, I am saying it's NOT "Chicago" proper, which is why I used that terminology.
The point is, there are places where DISH's $49.99 package includes RSNs that DirecTV does not include. Perhaps not your place ... but your claim made earlier in the thread is false and I thank you for acknowledging that in your post.
Perhaps you should learn more about DISH carriage before coming into a DISH forum and spouting off about it? Channel 418 on DISH (channel 412-08 on the Hopper) is FOXMW ... the main FSMidwest feed.
Assuming DISH's zip lookup in this case is correct, it's most likely the FSN Indiana sub-feed f/the Indiana Pacers, as dstout suggested. (it sure as hell is NOT the "primary" Midwest/St.Louis feed w/the Cards, etc.)
When there is content on FSIndiana (such as a Pacers game) it appears on one of the Alternate channels. DISH does not have permanent separate channels set aside for the subdivisions of the regional FS feeds.
On DISH, one would find that content on the FSMidwest channel or an Alternate channel (most likely on an alternate channel).
(DISH has no mention whatsoever of FS Cincy)

Variation in Tambopata Herp Communities
Scientists who specialize in biodiversity often study flora and vegetation throughout a wide area. However, in the Neotropics, the analyses of the natural vegetation was incomplete until this recent study. The study focuses on an area in southern Peru and gathers information to determine if the flora and vegetation in that region is similar to or contrasts the analyses of other studies conducted in neighboring areas. This study contributes to a thorough study of this part of Peru and helps scientists protect the fragile forests and landscapes that continuously come under threat of deforestation or disease because of human contact.

Feel free to move this to the VM section - but as I was doing the LDAP password from the VAMI interface - I figured it might have a better chance here.
We are deploying a VMware platform here at $employer, so the Zimbra appliance is enticing but I have spent considerable time getting two Zimbra appliances acting as LDAP primary and slave respectively to talk to each other. The slave is able to connect to the primary and then is unable to bind using the zimbra name (because of a incorrect password) I rebuilt the VM's several times using simpler and simpler passwords and it just wouldn't work. Is there some special sauce that I am missing? Or should I just use the ZCS under Linux VM's instead
Reading the forums, it seems most folks who do use the appliance use it as a single all-in one server where it's all self contained. BTW for the documentation, the link to the HTML version of the appliance documentation takes you to the Network Edition instead. (so the appliance documentation is only available as a PDF)


text: Well we took the chance and drew this tag. I've been scouring maps, google earth and talking to anyone who might know anything about this unit. Everything I read says the deer will be migrated out of the natl forest by mid november and that my best bet would be to stick around the blm west of bayfield. Is this true or could I still get on some good bucks further north. I will be heading down a the sunday before the hunt and this is the only scouting I will be able to get in. I live in northern Utah and between Kids sports and work just can't make down any earlier.
