Come Drive With Us: Part 2 -- Street Rodder Road TourWritten on March 15, 2006 Travel with us this summer and you will see all you want to see!
It's time to change the oil and get ready for the long haul ahead. It doesn't matter whether you signup for one, two, or more legs of this years Road Tour it is a sure bet that you are going to enjoy yourself. Some of this year's entrants have already signed up for more than one leg guaranteeing them a vacation to remember.
The staff at Boyd Coddington Hot Rods is continually working-on and prepping the Outlaw 'glass '34 Chevy coupe. The Roadster Shop chassis is ready to go with its Heidt's four-wheel-independent suspension, and the GM Performance Parts Ramjet 350 with the Gear Star 200-4R tranny are also in place and ready (well, almost) for the drive. Time is getting close to have the coupe up on its "Wheel Vintiques" and off to the first event in Ocean City, Maryland but right now the exhaust is being fitted at Doug's headers and the remainder of the exhaust system is a go.
There will be plenty of rodding fun at the various events that are slated for attendance but the real stories may very well come from those rodding "names" that come along for the drive. Have you always wanted to ask former Street Rodder Editor Tom Vogele what it was like back in the day? How about how come he hired Brennan as the current editor? (That question alone should take you "deep" into the night around the ol' campfire with beverage in hand!) What about all those questions you wished you could ask someone on curing your street rods little woes? Well, SRM Tech Editor Ron Ceridono will make the Vintage Air leg from San Antonio to the L.A. Roadster Father's Day Show in Pomona, California and will be on hand each day and at the evening stops to pull up a chair and answer those questions; although you may have to pry him away from the buffet line!
You want to ask the pros how did they do that? Well, the likes of Bobby Alloway, Boyd Coddington, Pete Chapouris, Barry Lobeck, Darrel Zip, and others will be on the various Road Tour legs and you will get your opportunity. (Editor's note: One of my first questions to Bobby Alloway will be if he can tell the difference between a '37 and a '38 Chevy? I am gonna get in trouble for that one!) Other personalities who will add to the party feeling on any one of the tours will be the likes of Jack Chisenhall and Rick Love of Vintage Air, and Frank Streff of SO-CAL Speed Shop in Phoenix, Arizona, and Magoo (he's one of those older rodders who was famous a bunch of decades ago) who should have plenty of stories on what's wrong (and right) with today's street rods.
(Editor's note: Magoo may have a comment or two about ye ol' editor in his younger days, that alone should make the attending well worth it.) The real fun of traveling in a street rod cross-country starts at the time everyone traveling together becomes good friends and you can ask that one question that has been stored in the back of your mind for years.
There are some other points that have been finalized and should prove fun such as the Pima Air and Space Museum on Tuesday, June 13th for those on Leg 2 (Vintage Air) out of San Antonio, Texas onto Father's Day show in Pomona, California. The next night should also prove interesting as the leg stops for dinner at Barry White's Street Rods in Corona, Calif., and right across the street is Marcel's Metal Shaping. It will be fun to see what new cars are being built from scratch at both shops.
On Wednesday, June 21st Leg 3 of the Road Tour will stop at Zipper Motors and will be treated to dinner and a great 26-mile nighttime drive through Monument Valley which is across the "street" from Zipper Motors. Remember that the next day the lunch stop will be at Streamline in Denver, Colo., with dinner in Pueblo at the NSRA Kickoff Party.
The fourth leg of the Road Tour should also prove to be very interesting as it heads from the Blue Suede Cruise in Norwalk, Ohio to the NSRA Nats in Louisville, Kentucky. However, it's the excitement that will be generated at the vintage drags with four Nostalgia Drag Racing Classes; eight Nostalgia Super Stockers; 12 AA/Gassers; four alcohol burning Nostalgia Funny Cars; 10 nitro methane burning front engine fuel dragsters; Scott Shockley's twin engine jet powered 1957 Chevy truck; and, Big Daddy Don Garlits driving an early version of "Swamp Rat"! Oh did we mention that there will also be a Saturday night rock-n-roll show? This leg of the tour is going to start off with the proverbial bang.
Later on in the summer the sixth leg which runs from the magazine offices to Sacramento, Calif., will stop by Roy Brizio Street Rods and Sanderson Headers. For those of you not aware both shops are literally side-by-side and share the same parking lot. How's that for one stop shopping?
Well, there is another dose of what you might expect from this summer Road Tour. It is all about having fun for yourself, family and with your street rod. While the sites will be great and memorable the "real" stories may very come from the rodding heroes that will be in attendance on each of the legs. That's where the "rest of the story" will be told. For more information on the Road Tour you can check the ad in this months issue, call the Road Tour toll free number at (800) 664-1362, or you can visit www.streetrodderweb.com and sign up.)

Former editor and current VP of our group here at Street Rodder is Tom Vogele, his wife Deb (should also be familiar to SRM readers), and the McMullen-clone highboy roadster (belongs to the Vogele's) will be on several of the tours including the Father's Day to the NSRA Pueblo, CO event. (Editor's Note: Here's your chance to find out why I am still the editor?)It doesn't get any better than eating meals with roddings renowned food connoisseurs--Editor Brennan and Techie Ceridono. Ron will be on the Vintage Air tour from San Antonio, TX to Father's Day in Pomona, CA. Brennan will be on several including the run to Pueblo and the run from the Blue Suede Cruise in Norwalk, OH to NSRA in Louisville, KY.Boyd Coddington, this year's builder of the Road Tour Chevy, will be around to have us at his shop during the 6th leg of the Road Tour from the magazine offices to NSRA Sacramento.While at the Blue Suede Cruise in Norwalk, OH the man himself--"Big Daddy" Don Garlits will be on hand and this should prove to be the source of a great many tales.Famous rod builder (as seen in Hot Rod) Bobby Alloway will be hosting us while at the Shades of the Past event in Pigeon Forge, TN and then promises to jump into one of his creations and join us on the 5th Road Tour leg to NSRA Kalamazoo, MI. With a little luck we can take a pass by his shop and checkout what's in the works. (Editor's Note: We caught Bobby on the phone arranging for five star hotel accommodations for Editor Brennan--or so he thinks!)Darrell and Rosealee Zipper will be our hosts for our stay in Grand Junction, CO while on the way to Pueblo. Aside from providing dinner, the Zippers will take us on a tour of their shop (Zipper Motors) and along a 20-plus mile nighttime cruise through Colorado National Monument. Should be a good turnout of local rodders as well.Barry Lobeck (left) listens to a rather compelling tale from Editor Brennan on why Barry should be part of at least one if not two of our tours. Look for Barry, it is always interesting.One evenings stop on RT leg #2 will be in Phoenix, AZ and dinner and the evenings festivities will be at the hands of the staff at SO-CAL Speed Shop. Look for a large gathering of rods to be on hand for this one.
Pictured here is the Road Tour Deuce from several years back while on the road in Colorado. It looks like we have a stop at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon in place and this should prove to be very rewarding stop.Could that unfinished Deuce be the latest ride from Bobby Alloway? We think so and you can bet it will be at Shades of the Past and on the road with us.Here's the first shot of the new Alloway SpeedStar phaeton. Yep, Editor Brennan got first dibs on driving it from Tennessee to Kalamazoo.Another view of the latest phaeton from the SpeedStar line of hot rods and one more companion rod on the 5th leg of the Road Tour.Bet you thought we would forget to give an update on the progress of this years Road Tour '34 Chevy coupe from Outlaw? Nope. At the time of this writing the chassis, powertrain, and most of the bodywork has been completed by the staff at Boyd Coddington Hot Rods.

Yoga in Paradise: Why Your Environment Matters
Yoga is a deeply personal experience that can have a profound impact on the body, mind, and soul. That's why the yoga environment is one of the most important considerations you should make when choosing a location for your next yoga retreat. The ideal setting is one in which you can find all the rest and relaxation you need—and where there is enough space to accommodate your entire group without feeling cramped or overwhelmed.
Whether you are planning a yoga retreat for reasons related to health, spirituality, or fun, we recommend the Mexican coast, where vacation villas add a touch of luxury and the ocean-side facilities take care of the rest.
The Importance of Your Yoga Space
The environment where you practice yoga is directly related to the success of your actions. For many types of practitioners, the setting is almost sacred, and conditions related to temperature, sound, and scenery are often dictated by ancient texts or your yoga instructor. Too much noise might inhibit your ability to reach a state of concentration, and too little ambient sound could be a distraction. In the same way, sight and smell also play a role, and it takes that perfect balance of all the senses to perform at your peak.
Most yoga practitioners agree that the best setting is one that includes:
- Minimal distraction. You don't want too many people coming or going, or have sounds related to traffic interrupting your session.
- Space to practice both the physical and mental requirements of yoga. Open spaces are typically best, especially when they are set against a peaceful backdrop that extends for miles.
- Comfort in terms of temperature. Although some forms of yoga call for an almost sweat-lodge-like setting, most practitioners agree that a balmy, natural setting is best.
- Privacy. No one wants an audience interrupting their moments of reflection or their workouts. A place to go where you won't be interrupted is key.
- Flooring. Yoga is done primarily on the floor. For safety and serenity, a smooth, open floor with the appropriate cushioning is important for properly practicing yoga.
The yoga facilities at Casa de la Sirena were designed with all of these considerations in mind. The complete complex includes 9 separate open-air yoga rooms overlooking the beach. The only view for miles is the ocean, which crashes in gentle waves that set the perfect tone for a yoga experience. You'll find all the comfort, privacy, and luxury you need to host a successful retreat, and all in a natural, tropical setting that can't be duplicated by any kind of technology.
And because we always ask you to bring along your own instructor when you plan a yoga retreat, you can set the entire experience up according to your expectations. We provide the perfect Mexican beach vacation resort and the facilities for the ultimate yoga experience. The rest is up to you.

I am beginning to brainstorm the possibility of moving my current webmail solution on a shared general purpose webserver from Horde to open source Zimbra, and I'm wondering if you folks could answer a few questions for me...
Does Zimbra have its own MTA, or does it sit on top of something like Postfix?
Can you have multiple domains in a single Zimbra installation?
I'm currently using a Postfix / Dovecot / Horde solution. How hard would it be to migrate my users? I'd prefer not to have to change *anything* about my setup, other than the webmail interface (removing Horde, implementing Zimbra).
How much memory, cpu load, etc.... would you estimate would be needed for about 10 low-traffic (and low-email traffic) domains?

Labor Pain: What You Need to Know
How does labor pain differ from other types of pain?
What is labor pain like?
What factors affect my experience of labor pain?
Does labor pain relief make for a satisfying birth experience?
What factors affect my choice of labor pain relief options?
What explains this variation in available labor pain relief options?
How does labor pain differ from other types of pain?
For many pregnant women, concerns about labor pain are second only to concerns about their baby's welfare. Decisions you make about pain relief measures can have a profound effect on:
How does labor pain differ from other types of pain?Labor pain differs from other kinds of pain in ways that make coping easier. Labor pain:
What is labor pain like?The experience of labor pain varies markedly from woman to woman. It can also vary for the same woman in different parts of the labor and from one labor to another.
Nearly all women experience lower abdominal pain during contractions. Many also experience low back pain, either with contractions or, less often, continuously. Women may also feel pain throughout the belly; in the hips, buttocks, or thighs; or in some combination of these locations. Pain may radiate from front to back, back to front, or down the thighs. It may be felt in several areas at once or just in one specific place. Words women use to describe their pain include: cramping, sharp, aching, throbbing, pressing, and shooting. Pain intensity varies widely and generally increases as labor progresses.
The sources and sensations of pain are different in the dilation and pushing phases of labor, and your experience may differ substantially as well. The pushing phase may be less painful.
Some women reporting intense labor pain prefer not to describe their pain in negative terms. This suggests that the sensation and interpretation of pain may be distinct from each other. There are various reasons why this may be so.
What factors affect my experience of labor pain?Labor pain is widely viewed as being nothing more than the perception of unpleasant sensation. The reality, however, is much more complex. Your experience of labor pain depends on many factors, including:
Does labor pain relief make for a satisfying birth experience?True or false: "If you have total or nearly total relief from labor pain, you will be very satisfied with your childbirth experience?" Many women and maternity caregivers may answer "true." However, women's labor pain experiences are often quite different from other experiences of physical pain. Labor pain need not involve suffering, and it can bring a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment.
When a woman feels she is successfully meeting a challenge and that she is the center of loving attention, she may experience a sense of exhilaration and zest even while in great pain. If she feels helpless and unable to cope or that people are not treating her with respect, she will suffer regardless of her pain level.
Labor pain and labor pain relief play at best a minor role in satisfaction ratings, except when expectations go unmet. Women are most likely to feel satisfied with their births when they feel a sense of accomplishment and personal control and when they have a good relationship with caregivers. A good relationship includes such elements as being treated with kindness and respect, getting good information, and being given the opportunity to participate in decisions about care. (The page on Best Evidence: Labor Pain provides support for this important information.)
What factors affect my choice of labor pain relief options?
Your choice of labor pain relief options is limited by where you decide to have your baby:
What explains this variation in available labor pain relief options?There are several factors which affect your options:

I'm glad to be here. This may have been talked about before, but who saw that troll Skip Bayless get ripped by Mark Cuban? I never liked Cuban before, but now maybe.
I heard NBC Sports is trolling fan boards to see if a potential Mark Cuban show would do well.
This should go well...
Hello, scan through the site, the Bayless topic has been discussed. And yes, it was great to see him made a fool.

MOUNDSVILLE - A sign hangs near the structure of the new Sleep Inn along Walmart Drive noting the new hotel is expected to open in May.
Suzanne Park of the Moundsville Economic Development Council said the city has potential to be a destination and attraction city, offering the Marx Toy Museum, the former West Virginia Penitentiary and the Palace of Gold at New Vrindaban. As one of the parties responsible for the former penitentiary's success as a tourist destination, Park said the city needs to offer visitors a full experience.
"We're trying to build a reason to come here and do more than one thing," Park said.

Construction crews work on building the new Sleep Inn hotel along Walmart Drive in Moundsville. The hotel is due to open in May.
But one of the challenges to keeping people in Moundsville has been the fact that the city has few lodging accommodations to offer visitors. Mayor Eugene Saunders said he thinks the new hotel is one of the best things ever to happen for the city.
"The hotel is not even opened up yet and people are already taking reservations," Saunders said.
Meanwhile, business owners say the new hotel is likely to bring them an increase in business.
"I'm thrilled to death," Leslie Allen of Finishing Touches Quilt Shop on Jefferson Avenue said. "I've been saying for years we needed a decent place for people to stay when they come here."
She said visitors will be able to stay in Moundsville rather than have to go to Wheeling to find lodging.
"I think it will bring in business," Vickie Aston of Uniquely Yours said.
"I don't think a new business opening in town is ever a bad thing," Diane Wallace of City Cafe commented. "I just hope they can manage to keep it full."
Wallace noted the current success of the oil and gas industry in Marshall County makes Moundsville a prime place for a hotel right now but she said that could change if and when that industry comes to an end in the area.
According to Marshall County Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Dave Knuth, Sleep Inn representatives said they plan to open the new hotel in the middle of May.
When construction began last year, the Moundsville City Council said they looked forward to the jobs the new hotel would bring to the community.

Photo Gallery: Fred Beckey's Big Comeback
At the age of 89, Fred Beckey is at it again. Beckey roped up with two other climbers to do Tranquility, a three-pitch 5.6 in Joshua Tree. Beckey turns 90 on January 14 and is an American climbing treasure.
"His body may have been weakened by age, but he can still move fluidly and thoughtlessly, like he's been doing it for 70+ years!" Richard Shore writes on Mountainproject.com. Shore soloed the route beside the team and took photos.
"Hard of hearing, Fred couldn't quite understand what the name of the tower was called - 'Hedgehog? Moosecock? Moosecat? Oh, Moosedog! Like the one I did in the Karakoram,'" Shore writes on Mountain Project.
Check out these sweet photos from the climb:

Last week, news surfaced of four of the the five founding members of Danity Kane meeting in Los Angeles, California, presumably to announce a reunion. The quartet of Aubrey O'Day, Shannon Bex, Dawn Richard and Aundrea Fimbres met without member D. Woods. Interviewed by Detroit, Michigan's HOT 107.5 #GlamRadio show with Bijou Star, D. Woods revealed her own discovery of the news. "I was surprised myself. [Laughs] However, after seeing the pictures, seeing the clip of the video, I saw that [Danity Kane was] in Los Angeles; I am not in Los Angeles, so there goes the reason why I am not in the picture. [Laughs] I'm actually in Atlanta right now." Woods added that she's currently in rehearsals for the theatrical production, Rebirth. The former Bad Boy Records artist studied Theater as an undergrad at New York University.
D. added, "I found out when my timeline went off the chain." Asked about bad blood within the former MTV competition-reality cast-turned-band, "We did go our separate ways back in fall of '08. Since then, I've really been putting my energies into these different projects." Having followed O'Day in her late 2008 early-departure from the group after two #1 albums, she continued, "I'm gonna support them as I've always supported them, and I hope that they'll support me."
Woods was also pressed about potential legalities that Danity Kane might face by reuniting without the involvement of mentor Diddy or Bad Boy Worldwide. "We as a group came up with that name," revealed the 28 year-old. Asked if she would consider seeking royalties, given her own perceived rights to the group name, Woods answered, "I'm not spiteful; I'm not tryin' to come get some...that's theirs; I got mine over here."
Asked if she would like to be included in the reunion plans, the Woodgrane Entertainment founder noted, "I would definitely consider it," but she would have to review her acting schedule.

text: So as many of you saw, I just got my first ever antelope with my bow. I've taken multiple deer with my bow and now I have a question. I have never been able to "punch through" so to speak. I have seen lots of hunting shows where the arrow goes through the animal but I have never been able to do that. I guess with my upcoming bowhuntin elk trip I am worried about this. What would be the cause of this? Someone said the it's probably my broadhead but I have tried multiple broadheads with no luck. Would it be my draw length or anything like that? Thanks everyone!

I have a couple of questions and suggestions:
1) It's missing the "Accessory Shelf". The former owner had fashioned a workable bracket but I would like to get this setup back to original. Anyone have one they would like to part with? (photo below)
2) The bronze bearing (what we used to call an 'Oilite bearing' back in my slot car days) that the worm gear rides in (and is adjusted for backlash) is worn out, the hole is now a slot. I found a nylon bushing that is an excellent fit (with no modification) at my local hardware store. Might be a good (and easy) fix for anyone else working on one of these. (photos below)
3) I hate how the older scopes (and even some newer ones) use metal tipped thumbscrews to hold the secondary/finder scopes in the rings. At the same hardware store I found what they call "thread protectors" that fit snugly on the end of the 3/16" thumbscrews holding the Photo-Guide scope. Fortunately they are white (each size is a different color). You will need enough thread space between the ring and the OTA to account for the thickness of the thread protector though, I didn't have enough to use them on the finder scope (which is fine, that size is orange). (photo below)
4) Anyone know why there are two sets of mounting holes for the mirror cage? Mistake by the person drilling the holes maybe? While it might help to mount the cage higher up for a binoviewer I don't think they had binoviewers in 1978. (photo below)
5) Apparently the rear aluminum trim ring was designed to easily pull off because the mirror cage won't come out unless you do. The original owner had sealed/glued it in with red silcone...that was fun to get off! I think I will file three grooves to allow clearance for the mirror cage ears to clear and glue the ring back on.
6) Are there any serial numbers on these scopes/mounts? I can't find any anywhere.
7) Funny small world story: There is a gold sticker on the bottom of the mirror from the original coating company, Pancro Mirrors, Glendale, CA. According to the company history on their website they did about 30,000 mirrors (coating only, not the grinding) before moving into the movie industry and leaving telescope mirror coating behind. Turns out they moved to Grass Valley, CA (where I live) in 2006, just a few months earlier than our move. When I get the scope back together I am going to take them some photos of it.
I am looking forward to trying this scope, lots of positive buzz about it. It will have a tough time going up against my lowly Orion 8" DOB IntelliScope though, the optics in that scope are really, really good, generally against which I compare the viewing experience with any scope I get. If it exceeds the Orion I will keep the 856, otherwise I will move it on. I will put up a photo of the completed project when I get it done, currenty have the OTA mounted on a CG5, the Meade mount is still in pieces. And it raining...

Ocean shipping: August volumes at Port of Baltimore are second-highest ever, says MPA
October 13, 2010
Recent monthly volume gains at the Port of Baltimore's public marine terminals continued their record-breaking pace in August, according to data released this week by the Maryland Port Administration (MPA).
In August, 57,510 TEU (Twenty-foot equivalent units) moved through the Port of Baltimore, marking the second highest monthly volume total ever recorded at the port, behind only July, which hit 63,740 TEU. Rounding out the top five volume months at the port are June 2010, July 2005, and July 2006 at 57,277 TEU, 56,454 TEU, and 56,219 TEU, respectively.
MPA spokesman Richard Scher said these volume gains are a sign that consumer demand is beginning to bounce back, with more purchases being made and people's buying confidence being somewhat stronger than it was a year ago.
"The improving economy—even though we are at the beginning of the recovery—is certainly a big part of this, but another big part is that two years ago we were able to sign MSC and Evergreen to extended long-term agreements in Baltimore," said Scher.
Both carriers are under contract for the next several years, which, Scher explained, will keep containers coming into the port and maintain existing port jobs. MSC's contract runs through 2014, and Evergreen's is through 2018. Hapag-Lloyd, APL, and NSCSA among several other carriers call on the Port of Baltimore, too.
"The recent surge in containers coming through the Port of Baltimore is very good news for retailers, consumers and jobs at the Port," said Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley in a statement. "This trend indicates that consumer demand is on the rise, more goods are being produced and more cargo is being exported and imported. These are all very favorable signs as we continue to recover from an extremely challenging economic decline."

Kent Institutional Characteristics
The categories and paragraphs below emanate from and elaborate upon the Role and Mission of Kent State University. Taken as a whole, these categories and the information contained therein detail Kent State institutional characteristics embodied within the university's role and mission statement. The university's annual and multiyear planning efforts are thus guided by the values and goals explicitly and implicitly described by the Kent Institutional Characteristics that follow.
Kent State University recruits an academically talented and culturally diverse student body. The university affirmatively strives to provide educational opportunities to students from varied backgrounds, including those persons who have been historically underrepresented in higher education. While admission to the Kent Campus is selective, the seven Regional Campuses offer open admissions. Through its Honors College, Kent State makes a particular effort to attract students who have already demonstrated their capacity to achieve outstanding academic success. For more than three decades the university has played a leading role nationally in providing opportunities to students with disabilities. The university also provides special programs that address the needs of students who for socioeconomic reasons are underprepared but who have the ability to achieve academic success.
While undergraduate students from every region of the nation and many foreign countries attend Kent State, the majority of its undergraduate students are from Northeast Ohio and reflect the rich diversity of the region's ethnic and cultural communities. A significant proportion of Kent State's graduate students come from beyond the boundaries of Ohio and the nation, and their presence on campus contributes significantly to the variety of experiences available to the student body as a whole. The university is placing increased emphasis on serving nontraditional students through programming at all of its campuses and through selected continuing education programs that complement and logically extend its academic degree programs.
To promote learning and foster the intellectual life of the university, Kent State seeks to attract and retain an active, culturally and academically diverse faculty of the highest caliber, skilled in the scholarship of teaching, discovery, application and integration. The university affords its faculty the fullest possible academic and artistic freedom, including varied opportunities for professional development, collaboration among academic disciplines and outreach to local, national and international communities. At Kent State University, faculty play an integral role in university-wide planning and governance.
Kent State University is accredited by The Higher Learning Commission and is a member of the North Central Association. The university offers a wide array of associate, baccalaureate, master's and doctoral degrees. Its programs provide a balance of academic and professional preparation in accordance with the highest national standards. Kent State fosters collaboration and articulation with community colleges and four-year institutions, as well as cooperative efforts with secondary and elementary schools to further facilitate successful transition to and within higher education. The university is committed to providing a living-learning environment that encourages individual growth and promotes the successful and timely completion of degrees.
Undergraduate. All undergraduate programs reflect the university's commitment to a liberal education foundation, which is intended to broaden intellectual and aesthetic perspectives, explore ethical and humane values, and prepare students for lifelong learning and responsible participation in a complex, changing society. The specialized major provides study in depth, which leads to knowledge and understanding in academic and professional fields of study. Undergraduate students are also offered varied opportunities to participate in research, take graduate-level coursework and engage in work outside the classroom.
Graduate. Kent State University, Northeast Ohio's senior public institution of higher education, offers an extensive range of advanced academic programs leading to the master's degree and selected programs leading to the doctoral degree. Kent State is committed to providing graduate-level programs that complement and enhance undergraduate education and meet the highest national standards. These programs provide advanced training and knowledge essential to the economic development and general welfare of Ohio and the nation, as well as lead to research with a global impact. The university recruits and retains high-quality students from across the nation and abroad to engage in study under the direction of a distinguished graduate faculty.
Kent State University was established in 1910 as Kent Normal School. Since its inception, Kent State has maintained its commitment to provide national leadership in what have been historical strengths of the university, professional education and the liberal arts. Kent State has a rich tradition in the preparation of teachers and is among the leaders nationwide in research related to teaching and learning. The university stresses the importance of a strong liberal arts base through its Liberal Education Requirements and maintains distinguished doctoral programs in selected areas of the humanities. From the events of May 4, 1970, Kent State University inherits a unique leadership role in promoting the peaceful resolution of conflict through education.
Northeast Ohio is a region with a population of more than 4.5 million, in a geographical area that is both urban and rural. With its Kent Campus and seven Regional Campuses, located at Ashtabula, East Liverpool, Geauga, Salem, Stark, Trumbull and Tuscarawas, the Kent State University system makes a university education accessible to all segments of Northeast Ohio.
Because it is home to many corporations and the NASA Glenn Research Center, Northeast Ohio is noted for research and development activities in science and engineering. Its location gives the university a special mission in the applied and basic sciences exemplified by the internationally renowned research conducted at Kent State's Glenn H. Brown Liquid Crystal Institute®.
The broad metropolitan area encompassing Cleveland, Akron, Canton, Youngstown and Warren has superb medical and health-related research facilities. Kent State builds upon these geographical advantages to offer nationally recognized programs of study and research in the health and behavioral sciences.
Kent State University has long been devoted to improving the quality of life in the region by emphasizing community development and design, illustrated by the leadership role its College of Architecture and Environmental Design plays in the Northeastern Ohio Urban Design Center.
As a major cultural resource for Northeast Ohio and prominent player in fine arts activities at nearby Blossom Music Center and Porthouse Theatre, Kent State is committed to maintaining excellent programs in the visual and performing arts.
Telecommunications, information sciences and other communication activities abound in the region, and Kent State offers well-recognized programs in several fields of communication, including established programs in print and electronic journalism and information sciences.
Northeast Ohio is a major business and commerce center. Kent State's programs in business and commerce are designed to serve area executives and business professionals, as well as prepare students for productive careers in a global economy.
Kent State University stresses internationally related activities and participates in a number of study-abroad programs and exchanges of students and faculty. Kent State students may explore the history, languages, cultures and religions of other countries and ethnic groups by taking courses and programs offered by many academic units.
Kent State University views learning in all its forms as central to its mission. University faculty provide instruction that reflects current knowledge gained through ongoing scholarship and adheres to the highest professional and ethical standards. Faculty members are readily accessible to students, who are encouraged to take an active role in the learning process. The university promotes excellence in teaching by offering faculty members opportunities for development in the areas of curriculum and instruction; by providing high-quality equipment, materials and facilities; and by maintaining a system of rewards and recognition based on the premise that teaching, research and creative activity are mutually supportive. Because teaching and learning are not confined to the classroom experience, a high value is placed on such related activities as individual instruction, thesis and dissertation direction, and academic advising.
A fundamental mission of the university is to enhance the quality of life through research and creative activity. Therefore, Kent State University has among its goals the generation, dissemination and application of knowledge in all its forms. Moreover, it considers research and creative activity necessary for teaching excellence. Faculty are expected to be actively engaged in a broad spectrum of scholarly activity conducted in accordance with the highest professional and ethical standards. Much of this activity relies upon cooperative efforts with students and staff. The university supports these efforts by fostering an environment of free inquiry; by offering opportunities for research-assigned time; and by providing the material and personnel resources required for high-quality scholarship, including an excellent library with Association of Research Libraries status. Kent State University is committed to strengthening selected research and creative programs that have attained, or hold the promise of achieving, national and international prominence, as well as those that fulfill key societal goals.<
Kent State University is committed to being a catalyst in finding solutions to the social, economic and cultural challenges facing society. By means of the dissemination of results from basic and applied research conducted by its faculty and graduate students, as well as through programs offered through continuing education and at the Regional Campuses, Kent State contributes significantly to the social and economic vitality of Northeast Ohio. The many activities fostered by the university in areas such as art, music, fashion design, theatre, dance, recreation and intercollegiate athletics enrich the life of the community. Its national public radio station, university press and museum are important regional and national assets.
Dedicated to creating an atmosphere in which each individual within its diverse student body can achieve, Kent State University provides a holistic learning environment conducive to the academic and personal growth of each student. Kent State's dynamic campus life affords students the opportunity to participate in a wide range of cocurricular activities that promote intellectual, cultural, ethical, physical, aesthetic and interpersonal development. Facilitated by an able support staff involved in the university's planning and operation, Kent State provides strong support services to help ensure the achievement of students and faculty, as well as provide for their physical, emotional and social well-being. Kent State University has attained notable success in providing accessibility for persons with disabilities. Student life at the Kent Campus is further enhanced by the university's distinctive and attractive residential setting with all of the advantages of major urban centers nearby.
Kent State University is committed to an environment in which the faculty, staff and student body are representative of the cultural and ethnic variety found locally, nationally and even globally. Diversity at Kent State connotes the encouragement, celebration and support of a rich mixture of people on campus. In an effort to foster an understanding of the strengths and challenges of diversity, the university provides opportunities for the open exchange of ideas and experiences among people diverse in national origin, gender, age, sexual orientation, ethnicity, disability, religion and veteran status.
Kent State University recognizes that the many significant contributions of alumni to their professions and to society as a whole represent the practical embodiment of the university's educational philosophy and are a measure of its success. The university takes great pride in the achievements of its alumni and seeks to maintain close working ties with its graduates. The human and financial resources of alumni also provide essential assistance in assuring that the university will be able to continue to serve future generations.
Kent State University is committed to self-assessment as a tool to evaluate and enhance institutional effectiveness. The foregoing categories provide major areas for assessment, which at Kent State involve both internal and external measures of evaluation. Through periodic program review, preparation for external accreditations, special studies and annual planning activities, academic and support units of the university are involved in an ongoing process of self-examination and improvement. Planning at Kent State guides future directions and priority-setting to which decision-making and resource allocation are linked. Outcomes assessment plays a major role at the university in facilitating academic program improvement and change.

When last we checked in with her, up-and-coming model Tali Lennox was doing her best to model some clothing despite the creepy directions and unflattering photography of Terry "tampon tea" Richardson. "If she looks that good modeling clothes while grabbing crotches in Uncle Touchy's basement," I wondered, "how good must she look normally?" Answer: quite good! Take a look at her wearing clothes and touching zero crotches in a nicely shot, styled, and directed editorial from the August issue of Interview Russia.

The CAVE2™ system is a next-generation, large-scale, virtual environment--a room in which images are seamlessly displayed so as to immerse an observer in a cyber world of 3-D data. Here, Vaibhav Govilkar, a research assistant at the University of Illinois at Chicago's (UIC) Electronic Visualization Laboratory (EVL) and computer science graduate student, stands inside virtual train tracks in the CAVE2 system to observe distortion as high-speed trains roar past. This visualization of fundamental dynamics phenomena related to high-speed rail operations was done in collaboration with the National University Rail (NURail) Center. NURail is a consortium consisting of researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, UIC, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Michigan Tech University, the University of Kentucky, the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, and the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, and is funded by the U.S. Department of Transportation. Understanding track structure movements, liquid sloshing and wheel/rail contact locations are among several transportation research areas that require sophisticated virtual reality tools like the CAVE2 system. EVL OmegaLib software was used to display the 3-D model in the CAVE2 system.
This research is supported by a National Science Foundation Major Research Instrumentation grant under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. The award, "MRI-R2: Development of the Next-generation CAVE Virtual Environment (NG-CAVE)" (grant CNS 09-59053), is under the direction of Andrew E. Johnson, Jason Leigh, Maxine D. Brown and Tom Peterka, May 2010 to April 2013.

Learn more about Office 365
It now works.
Thanks for the feedback.
Hi again Jim
Negative on the Acrobat X!
I have tested this and it's the same if it's Acrobat X reader or Acrobat 9.
I'm using Internet Explorer 8 with Acobat X and can open pdf's without any aditional scripting.
Just installed Acrobat X on Win7 Pro with IE9 on a test machine - Cant open pdf's directly :-(
MCH: Yes you are right about other browsers - It's a showstopper when you have to ask users to lower SharePoint functionality with FireFox, but at least they can open pdf's - Which is of the outmost importance.
Does it Work for you Wavemaster00?
What do you mean??
Let's sum up:
Jim: Can you open pdf's directly in IE 8 or 9?
Mch: Have you been sucessfull in this?
I can open pdf's directly but I'm on a highly beefed up Windows 7 Pro, Office 2010, IE 8, Acrobat X - And then the mystery node: WITH SHAREPOINT 2010 SERVER ENTERPRISE INSTALLED ON WIN7 PRO.
But I'm accessing Office 365 via internet.
It works.
I click on a pdf,, opens up in the browser.
Make sure you are not using a this new fangled 64-bit browser that has been around for 3 years. That new technology stuff is not ready yet for advanced tasks such as opening a pdf in a browser. :)
I am using IE9.
Hi Wavemaster
I'm using IE 8 32 bit browser, and I have stayed away from the 64 bit browsers.
But how can it be that you and I are the only ones in the world who can open pdf's directly???
...and all my test machines are on 32 bit IE9 or 8
I agree a full explanation from MS of what behavior should be expected with the fix would be helpfull. I've been pretty silent waiting for my sites to get 'the fix' While most of my orgs are not seeing any updates I do have one that has the Update completed. Jim described the new behavior pretty well.
When you click the link, the PDF file opens in Adobe X on the local machine. (After a long wait to load a bloated local reader and complately download the file.) Adobe asks whether you want to check out & edit or just open (even if check out is not required on the doc lib.) This assumes you have Adobe 10.1.2 other wise nothing changes.
The 'fix' leaves a lot to be desired if you ask me. I think I'll stick with opening in fast in the browser using js. not sure how that works for users who edit pdfs in the browser as Jim said. Jim, have you tried this solution?
mch, the olny way to know if you've been updated that I'm aware of is the presence of a recycle bin icon on the sharepoint site collections admin page for E level accounts. If you're P1, tough luck there's no way to know the status of SU on your org.
Wavemaster: Do you have a locally installed SharePoint server on your machine??
This machine is a client attached to an SBS2008 domain. I have a member server running OSS2007, for those Sharepoint applications that Microsoft has deemed to be not worth their time to provide upward compatibility.
From this client I am logged into to my Office 365 Sharepoint site. I have a test site there with a few pdf's in a list.
Hope that answers your question.
Everyone with the SU2 installed on their farm and adobe 10.1.2 installed locally has the same behavior as you. Your farm was one of the earlier ones to get the update judging by the fact that you reported the behavior before feb announcement that SU2 would see PDF changes.
Don't quite get what you meen here?
Can you explain further?
What you are saying is that I'm having SharePoint 2010 server is the reason why I can open pdf's on Office 365?
I heard about the recycle bin trick but it sounded too much like a "voodoo" scenario (even for MSFT) but I have an E account so now I'll check.
The ability to open PDF files as you describe is a result of Service Update 2 which began rolling out worldwide in late February. Some Sharepoint Online Farms have the update completed and some do not. The behavior you are experiencing is a result of your farm having the update. In addition, Adobe 10.1.2 is required which explains why yours is working on some client machines an not others. It has nothing to do with SP2010 being installed locally.
You reported this behavior in late feb even before MS announced it would be 'fixing' PDFs in the update as some of us suspected they would. This leads me to believe the Office365 farm that you are on got the update earlier than most.
I hope that answers your questions.
would be nice if there was a version number some where in admin pages so we can explain to customers with some certainty why the behavior is different than another org. I understand it takes time to roll these out, but I got the ' your org will be updated in next 24-48 hours notice' 4 weeks ago and still no update!
The top complaint in forums is why can't I open in the browser? MSFT hears: "Office 365 users wanted a better, more connected and governed experience when it came to working with PDF files within SharePoint Online document libraries.". What?! So they wait for adobe to modify their software to govern our experience some more. all we want is to open PDFs fast in the browser.
The PDF story is still as sad as ever.

This is my second attempt at making a poor man's Riv. My first attempt is post #356 . Didn't like the upright riding position for a commuter so it was converted back.
Now I am in need of an upright style bike and so I built this with 650b wheels and Hetre tires. Unfortunately this bike doesn't quite hit the mark. I want the bars a lot higher than the saddle for that sit up and beg position. All the components have bee removed from this frame and in time they will go onto a Riv frame. Just have to find the right one.

Four years after the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act was signed into law, Census data shows women in West Virginia still earn just 70 cents on average for every $1 paid to a man.
In Ohio, that figure is 77 cents.
The act was signed into law by President Barack Obama on Jan. 29, 2009. It amends the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Ohio County sheriff's Deputy Nicole Seifert provides security at the City-County Building in Wheeling on Tuesday.
Because of the bill, the 180-day time limit to file a discrimination complaint now resets with each new paycheck that reflects discriminatory compensation.
Ledbetter was a production supervisor at a Goodyear tire plant in Alabama who filed a lawsuit regarding pay discrimination in 1998. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled against Ledbetter in 2007, noting the discriminatory decisions related to her pay occurred well before the 180-day statute of limitations in which she could file a lawsuit.
"Like any female professional and mother, I believe we must reach the point where women who are performing similar jobs to their male counterparts are compensated equally," Rep. Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va., said Tuesday. "Women make up 47 percent of the U.S. work force and are in higher leadership positions than ever before. There's no question that they should be paid accordingly. However, the Lilly Ledbetter act goes beyond the shared and laudable goal of equal pay for equal work by focusing more on lawsuits rather than the root of pay discrimination."
Census Bureau data compiled in 2011 indicates women in West Virginia earn, on average, about 70 cents for every dollar paid to men.
The annual median salary for men is $42,125 but for women it is $29,688, resulting in a pay gap of $12,437 a year, according to the data.
Women in Ohio don't fare much better, earning 77 percent of what men do in the Buckeye State. The census data lists the median salary for men in Ohio at $46,176, while for women it stands at $35,746 - a difference of $10,430 annually.
Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., said there is "nothing fair" about the paycheck gap between men and women in West Virginia.
"On the four-year anniversary of the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, it's past time that we correct this unfairness to make sure that women are paid what they deserve ... ," he said. "It shouldn't matter whether you're a woman or a man - you should be treated fairly no matter what."
Ohio County Clerk Brenda Miller pointed out that women working in government often are paid the same as their male counterparts, as the wages for their jobs typically are set by statute. In West Virginia, more women hold the job of county clerk than do men, but the men and women are paid equally, she said.
Ohio County sheriff's Deputy Nicole Seifert said she doesn't see pay disparities between men and women who work in the department, and that they are "absolutely" treated the same.
In the private sector, wage inequality has improved over the years according to Linda Miller, manager of the WesBanco branch in McMechen.
"We've come a long way, but we have a long way to go," she said. "I've been in banking for 42 years, and I have seen a lot. It's getting better, but there's still room for improvement."
Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va., called Ledbetter "a hero."
"Thanks to Lilly, the law now recognizes that each and every unfair paycheck is discrimination that must be remedied ... ," he said.

Marathon tested. Business meeting approved. Rockport's DresSports weigh less than the average running shoeand they were put to the test in two New York City Marathons to prove the shoes' comfort and durability. Not only does the full-grain leather look professional, it's easy to clean for long-term wear. On the performance side, Strobel® technology on the inside and flex grooves in the outsole provide forefoot flexibility to aid the walking motion. The collection's lightweight, slip-resistant rubber outsole delivers shock absorption while helping to reduce foot and leg fatigue, and moisture-absorbent, odor-resistant cushioning keeps feet dry and comfortable. Added comfort features include a padded tongue and collar to help protect from excessive rubbing and prevent blisters. We've redefined what a dress shoe can be: lighter than a running shoe, as versatile as a cross-trainer, tailored for your daily marathon.

Hi there, Project Runway fans! Last week, the teams failed at crafting exotic dancewear for men. This week, they took on this season's ready-to-wear challenge: creating a budget-friendly spring look for Lord & Taylor.
Tim broke up last week's teams into smaller groups – two pairs and a triad – but since everyone was able to design their own garment (with input from their team members), the pairings seemed to be more for drama than anything else. The designers were so competitive and sick of working together that the team dynamic was pretty much shot.
The teams met with Suzanne Timmins, fashion director for Lord & Taylor's parent company, who gave them their challenge: Use the Lord & Taylor rose as inspiration for a ready-to-wear spring look that will be displayed in the store's Fifth Avenue window as well as sold online.
There was, of course, some trouble in the workroom. Stanley's attempts to control Patricia were thwarted by her feigning agreement and then moving on to do what she was going to do anyway. Michelle hated the color Daniel chose for his look, and Richard wouldn't even talk to Layana.
On the runway, Patricia's rosy draped blouse with matching capris and Stanley's drab pink dress kept them both safe.
I agreed with the judges that Richard's sporty maxi dress, though quite pretty, looked over-styled and too similar to what he's done before. Samantha's short, flirty dress was cute and interesting, but too junior for Lord & Taylor. Layana's floral-patterned chiffon dress was beautiful – except for that print. Yuck.
Michelle turned out to be right about Daniel's bright pink. It wouldn't have worked as a jacket, and though I did love the shoulders, the dress wasn't tailored well enough – and it was (frankly) sort of boring. Michelle's on-trend chartreuse shift dress, however, was a clear front-runner with its impeccable details and great styling.
Already know who won, or don't mind being spoiled? The winning design is on sale now. (Or was, until it sold out).
See you next week. Auf Wiedersehen.

The ancient healing art of Ayurveda focuses on how to align the forces within the body to create balance and harmony. The ultimate goal of Ayurveda is to work with the body's natural energy cycles to promote physical, emotional and mental health. The benefits of Ayurveda have allowed it to continue to be a trusted form of treatment for a variety of medical issues in India and beyond, and its tenants were used as the basis of a unique line of skin care products named after the Sanskrit term for a beautiful woman, Sundari.
The Sundari Exfoliators collection assists with your body's natural cellular turnover process. When used regularly, the Sundari Exfoliators play a vital part in maintaining the cycle of producing new skin cells and eventually shedding them once they are dry and damaged. The range of Sundari Exfoliators includes formulas that improve the texture of the complexion as well as products that smooth and soften the entire body. All of the selections in the Sundari Exfoliators range feature natural ingredients that are common remedies in the Ayurvedic tradition.
Eliminating dead skin cells is an excellent way to address many skin care concerns. Based on the traditions of Ayurveda natural healing, the Sundari Exfoliators collection contains a variety of products to help you improve your complexion.
Gotu kola is a Southeast Asian herb that has unique healing powers that assist with skin rejuvenation. The Sundari Gotu Kola and Walnut Body Exfoliator contains the herb, blending it with a unique combination of natural ingredients that help to firm and tone the skin. Perfect for women who are concerned about cellulite, loose skin following weight loss or signs of aging, the exfoliator is safe for all skin types.
Sundari Honey and Enzyme Exfoliating Serum is a facial formula that contains pure pumpkin extract. Rich in alpha hydroxy acids, pumpkin helps to dissolve the tiny protein bonds that keep your old skin cells clinging to the new skin beneath them. White willow bark extract is also featured in the product to offer additional resurfacing benefits. The exfoliator is excellent for those who wish to diminish the appearance of wrinkles, eradicate hyperpigmentation or shrink enlarged pores.
In addition to alleviating stress and calming anxiety, kukui nut oil makes an excellent moisturizer, and the Sundari Omega 3 and Flaxseed Body Exfoliator uses the emollient as an active ingredient in a formula designed to treat extremely rough, damaged or aging skin. This powerful exfoliator effectively lifts away the outer layers of the tissue and can be used anywhere to create a soft, smooth and silky finish.
