We are excited to be offering a new degree in Clinical Rehabilitation & Mental Health Counseling (CRMHC). Starting fall 2015, this will replace the Rehabilitation Counseling degree program. The new degree will open opportunities for our students and graduates in both the fields of rehabilitation counseling & mental health counseling.
The Council on Rehabilitation Education (CORE) and the Council for Accreditation of Counseling & Related Education Programs (CACREP)boards directed leadership in spring 2013 to work toward developing a relationship between the two organizations that would protect and benefit students in rehabilitation counseling programs who were legitimately preparing counselors to work as independent mental health counseling practitioners. CORE and CACREP are both committed to educating individuals about the importance of including all appropriately prepared counselors to be recognized in counselor licensure laws, regardless of area of specialization.
CACREP will be assuming the accreditation responsibilities that have been CORE effective July 1, 2017.
Join us for an informational webinar about our program. We offer a session each month.
In the meantime, let me explain a bit about both of these fields and how we are intersecting them. Follow me.
According to 20/20: A Vision for the Future of Counseling, the delegates comprised of 31 counseling organizations agreed upon a unified definition of counseling: Professional counseling is a professional relationship that empowers diverse individuals, families, and groups to accomplish mental health, wellness, education, and career goals.
Rehabilitation Counselors
Rehabilitation counselors are counselors first with a special twist to their preparation. That twist originated almost 100 years ago in response to the needs of veterans returning from World War I to navigate a new world in their families and communities as a person with a disability. The field has been built on evidence-based knowledge about counseling and providing case management services to people overcoming barriers to full participation and engagement in life presented by physical and intellectual disabilities, substance use disorders, and mental health problems.
Business Insider ranked Rehabilitation Counselors as one of the top 13 Most Meaning Jobs, check it out! http://www.businessinsider.com/most-meaningful-jobs-in-america-2015-7
Rehabilitation counselors have learned to use expertise in three critical areas in a multitude of arenas:
- counseling;
- medical, psychosocial and functional aspects of disabilities; and
- vocational issues, career development and the world of work.
Using this expertise, rehabilitation counselors continue to serve veterans in vocational rehabilitation and employment programs in the Veterans Administration, people with disabilities in public vocational rehabilitation agencies, people recovering from traumatic incidents or disorders in rehabilitation hospitals, clients in substance abuse treatment and mental health programs, and employee assistance programs, to name a few.
Rehabilitation counselors interview people with disabilities and their families, evaluate school and medical reports, and confer and plan with physicians, psychologists, occupational therapists, and employers to determine the capabilities and skills of the individual. Conferring with the client, they develop a rehabilitation program that often includes training to help the person develop job skills. Rehabilitation counselors also work toward increasing the client's capacity to live independently.
The future: Rehabilitation counselors determine, coordinate, and arrange for rehabilitation and transition services for children within school systems. In addition, rehabilitation counselors provide geriatric rehabilitation services to individuals with health problems, and workers injured on the job are increasingly receiving rehabilitation services through private rehabilitation counseling companies and employers' disability management and employee assistance programs. They may also become life-care planners assisting individuals experiencing major long-term disabilies.
– Council on Rehabilitation Education.
Clinical Mental Health Counselors
Clinical mental health counseling is a distinct profession with national standards for education, training and clinical practice. Clinical mental health counselors are highly-skilled professionals who provide flexible, consumer-oriented therapy. They combine traditional psychotherapy with a practical, problem-solving approach that creates a dynamic and efficient path for change and problem resolution." [Definition of Mental Health Counseling developed by the American Mental Health Counselors Association (AMHCA), http://www.amhca.org/about/facts.aspx]
Among mental health provider groups, Clinical Mental Health Counseling is unique in its insistence on a balance between prevention and psychoeducational, developmental approaches on the one hand and its insistence on clinical competencies for the treatment of psychopathology on the other hand
Mental health counselors can be found everywhere from state-run agencies to private practices to psychiatric hospitals, as their educational background lends them considerable flexibility within the scope of behavioral care.
Here is a publication chapter that outlines Past Influences, Present Trends, and Future Challenges in Counseling and Psychotherapy
Combining the two professional focus arenas. The scope of practice for graduates of this degree will be expansive, covering a wide spectrum of work with people who have disabilities, including mental health issues. We believe it will have a synergistic effect on what have traditionally been seen as relatively separate. First the mental health field will be infused with practitioners who understand the issues of disability and addressing limitations in life, advocates who work toward leveling the economic playing field for people. Rehabilitation agencies and people with disabilities will enjoy a new level of expertise in providing counseling to address mental health challenges
The Clinical Rehabilitation & Mental Health Counseling graduate education program at West Virginia University forwards the land grant mission of the University by providing a strong practitioner training program focused on the unique needs of diverse communities. We are committed to preparing entry-level rehabilitation and mental health counselors to work competently and ethically within a pluralistic society. Our central organizing approach rests in understanding the unique needs of individuals, couples, families, and groups experiencing disability or other disadvantages across their lifespan in our society, at work, home and play.
A main objective of the program is to prepare counselors with the counseling and assessment knowledge and skills to assist clients with mental, physical and emotional disabilities. To accomplish this objective, the program aims to provide educational and practical experiences that allow every student to meet the following knowledge and outcome expectations.
The objectives of our program are linked to our mission statement. They are to provide:
- Educational experiences for every student that facilitates the development of knowledge, skills and beliefs necessary to practice as qualified clinical rehabilitation and mental health counselors in a wide variety of circumstances.
- Learning opportunities to support students' ability to implement culturally responsive and ethically sound clinical rehabilitation and mental health counseling practices.
- Clinical training environments that are focused on real world expectations and standards of clinical practice.

Program Outcomes
The rehabilitation counseling program at WVU is fully accredited by the Council on Rehabilitation Education (CORE) through the end of the 2018/2019 academic year ("www.core-rehab.org": ). The program has a goal of admitting 20 students each year. Student outcomes are evaluated each year on a variety of metrics that are part of the overall program evaluation.
During the academic year of 2013-14, we enrolled 23 students for their first year experience. They joined the second year students for a total of 40 full time and 9 part time students. Sixteen of these students reported having a disability and 6 were members of a minority ethnic group.
During the Spring 2013 and Fall 2013, 16 students graduated. Eleven of them had received funding through the two Scholars Programs awarded to WVU by the U.S. Rehabilitation Services Administration.
Of these graduates, 11 are employed as rehabilitation counselors in state vocational rehabilitation settings. These include settings in West Virginia, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Texas, Alaska, Montana, Florida and North Carolina. Two are working mental health counseling settings. Another graduate joined the doctoral program in counseling psychology at WVU.
In the 2009 – 2014 period, 98 students graduated from our program and 74 took the examination for the Certified Rehabilitation Counselor. Of these, 65 passed on the first administration for an 88% pass rate. In March 2013, we had a 100% pass rate and in March 2014, an 88% pass rate. Of the 22 graduates for 2014, 21 have or are scheduled to take the examination.
We have three tenure track faculty members, one non tenure track instructor and an adjunct instructor.
Comments from students:
"The program changed my life!" – J
"I am on a joint mission with the Army and have been able to use skills developed in the rehabilitation counseling program to help others in my unit. As it seems more than half the people deployed right now are unemployed back home, I've shared employment resources with them, such as O*NET and work individually with people on job-seeking strategies after completing our daily duties. I can't wait to get back home and finish up my internship. The flexibility offered in this program has made it all possible." SH
"I love this program! The rehab counseling program has stretched me and matured me and prepared me well for the workforce. The knowledge that I have gained has made me marketable, competitive, and confident in the field of rehab counseling. Thank you Dr. Glenn and faculty for generously imparting into us your experience and knowledge. I am graduating the program a very prepared individual. – Melonie Terry
"Loving the job, love being a Rehabilitation Counselor! Most meaningful work I've done. Thanks, Ginny (WVDRS)
Our program was highlighted by WVU Online, check out the video of students from the 2012-13 graduating class talk about being a WVU rehabilitation counseling student.

The benefits of this is that you can create pick and place data in Capture CIS and thus reflect the actual design variants. I would strongly recommend you to read the header of the skill file since it explains the different posibilities for x,y placement export. Currently it exports the symbol origin so if you would like it to export the body_center instead you need to change the skill program - or feel free to email me.

Re: Phone call by law firm
Debt collectors are permitted to call a party other than the consumer alleged to owe the debt, but only for the purpose of attempting to obtain location information about the consumer. They are normally limited to one such call, and cannot disclose to the third party that the consumer who is the subject of their inquiry owes any debt.
They can only placed a renewed call if they have legitimate reason to believe that a prior response was inaccurate or incomplete, so they cant just continue to call.
So, my question would be, how do you know it is regarding a debt?
As for whether he should contact them, that is a personal decision. He has the right to send them a request for debt validation, which, since they have apparently not yet sent him dunning notice, will place a cease collection bar on them until such time as they provide the requested debt validation.

May 2015 - $42.00
The campground is going through what looks like a fairly major overhaul. The pond (Whitetail Springs) is much cleaner and nicer than it was two years ago and a lot of the sites had been re built and there was quite a bit of construction going on. It was never loud or obtrusive, but there was definitely activity about as they are trying to improve the facilities. I would definitely ask if the site you're looking at is near construction or is being redone.
We were there before the pools were open but they do have 3 pools with one being adults only. The other major amenity is the 9 hole golf course. A lot of people were playing it and it looked like a lot of fun. If you're looking for more of a challenge, Lawsonia is right across the street and that is one (actually two) of the most beautiful and challenging golf courses you're going to ever play.
Our site did not have a sewer hookup (only two nightly sections do) but their dump station area was clean and odor free. Easy to get in and out of without being right at the main gate.
The camp store and the people running it were great. Coffee, great looking snacks and a cheerful group of people providing great service.
We had no problem getting to our site with our 5th wheel, but I can see there might be some sites we would have struggled with so look at the map and know your unit.
The water was clean, pressure was good, Verizon wireless was adequate, their wi-fi was strong, but slow.
We'll definitely go back. - Samron68
May 2011 - $45.00
This campground is very family friendly. All activities included in the main price. There are no extra fees required. Bath houses are very clean and well kept. Swimming pools are very spacious with plenty of room for everyone. Office staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Great golf course located on site free to campers. Mini golf was also free. Kids had a great time here. - werazoo
Jul 2010 - $52.00
Proof that more $$$ does not automatically mean a better camping experience. We had booked this site based on their website and one on-line review (not found here). So here we go: Small/narrow dirt/gravel roads throughout the campground, except for the entry lane alongside the office. If you're towing a toad, expect to have to enter the campground to find a level spot to unhook it. Pull through sites are 35 feet wide by about 55' long, just long enough to park the coach and toad nose to nose. A fire ring and picnic table was seen at each site. Getting into the site (#7) was difficult as the entry roadway between the sites was narrow. Although the campgrounds map shows the sites are placed at an angle to make entry easy, they aren't. There is no shade in the area that contains the pull through sites. The pool/playground area is a pretty good hike from the rear of the campground where most of the big rig sites are located. This campground apparently gets a lot of business from the par 3 golf course directly alongside, which is "free" to campers. The golf course looked well maintained, somewhat better than the campground itself. The Wi-Fi signal is quite good, however it works slowly very slowly. The management did reset the modem for us upon request, but that didn't help for long. Bottom line, not worth the money they charge - unless you're really big into golf. - mackerman

Charges filed in Vt. man's deathNovember 22,2012FORT EDWARD, N.Y. — A 30-year-old Vermont woman is free on bail after pleading not guilty to charges stemming from a crash on New York Route 22 in Hebron that killed an 83-year-old man.
Cassie Early of Arlington, Vt., entered the plea Tuesday before a Washington County judge in Fort Edward.
A grand jury indicted Early on a series of charges from the 7 a.m. crash on July 29, including aggravated vehicular homicide, and manslaughter in the death of Vincent Muro Sr., of West Rutland, Vt.
Court documents say Early had a blood alcohol level more than double the legal limit for driving.
Police say Early's pickup crossed into the wrong lane and hit Muro's vehicle.
The Glens Falls Post Star reported that Early could be sentenced to 25 years in prison.MORE IN This Just InBENNINGTON For the first time, all the choral students of the Southwest Vermont Supervisory...

You can get Sentinel-1 data from scihub.esa. Requires only registration (And most likely, non-commercial use). As Sentinel-1 has just become operational the archive is not very extensive but should grow quite quickly. You can set request data-access propospal on Alaska Satellite Facility. Some data open access. For ALOS-PALSAR you must be a resident of the ...
Panchromatic images are created when the imaging sensor is sensitive to a wide range of wavelengths of light, typically spanning a large part of the visible part of the spectrum. Here is the thing, all imaging sensors need a certain minimum amount of light energy before they can detect a difference in brightness. If the sensor is only sensitive (or is only ...
Have you looked at using FWTools? There is a python script called gdal_merge that is available within FWTools. You can use a list as input. The command with usage would be: gdal_merge -o c:\temp\output_image.tif -q -v --optfile c:\temp\rasterlist.txt
GDAL supports .img format, both the basic Imagine and the extended Imagine (greater than 2GB), thus any software that utilizes GDAL drivers would support ERDAS Imagine. The most workable and well documented that I have seen is QGIS. It is also open source and therefore free.
Posterizing was a great start: it eliminated most of the compression artifacts and simplified the cartography enough to enable additional cleaning. Much of the cleaning of a categorical raster involves so-called "morphological" operations. These include expanding one category into its neighbors, shrinking it back again, and region grouping contiguous ...
If you open up the Properties dialog for the picture element, you can state that you want it to be saved with the MXD:
If you're using Python I'd recommend using the GDAL library, which has it's own Python bindings. Assuming you've got both GDAl (see this GIS StackExchange question for details on how to install on windows) and numpy installed, your code could look something like: from osgeo import gdal import numpy as np #Open our original data as read only dataset = ...
If you want to show your geometries as vectors instead of images there are a couple of tricks that you can apply to reduce the load of your page: Use TopoJSON instead of GeoJSON Remove all the attributes that you are not going to use in the applicaation and also the whitspaces. Taking into account your visualization scale, simplify your geometries and ...
Only managed to find a couple of sources for SAR images and data: You can download SAR images from here which are mostly focused on ecological sites such as forests: You can download SAR samples from here which contain fairly large datasets (note: the last 4 links at the bottom of the SAR section are dead) Hope this helps.
Your understanding is correct. Obviously, you aren't limited to just two points in time, but that is only a minor variation. Multi temporal information is generally used for change detection, but it also provides a good tool to take phenological information into account when doing vegetation classification.
Under'Options', choose the 'CRS' tab, and see the choices for new layers. Choose either "Use project CRS", or 'Use default CRS displayed below'.
you can either check "update georeferencing" or create a new rectified image using "rectify". These tools are in the drop down menu of th georeferencing toolbar.
JAXA have made global L-band SAR mosaics at 25 m spatial resolution available from the PALSAR sensor: http://www.eorc.jaxa.jp/ALOS/en/palsar_fnf/fnf_index.htm Registration is required to download the data.
Yes, there is a way to do that. In the symbology palette for the overlay raster, you can select the Display Background Value (R, G, B) _ _ _ as ___ option (see screenshot for a raster I have doing the same thing with a white background. Assuming your background image is truly all white, your values will also be 255, 255, 255 in the boxes. Make sure to select ...
I hacked together a solution for this and wrote a blog article a while back on a very similar topic, which I will summarize here. The script is intended to extract a river from a 4-band NAIP image using an image segmentation and classification approach.

This is a known issue with ESRI. Their Page suggests these following workarounds (quoted from ESRI): Use one of the following two solutions to solve this issue. It is highly recommended to download and use ArcGIS Pro to perform all printing and exporting functions. ArcGIS Pro is not limited by the graphical device interface (GDI) ...
Though I am not able to understand the difference between the standard deviation output and the percentage output and what is the significance of using one over the other? Those refer to the threshold used to decide whether there has been any change between two images. For percentage change, it uses a symmetric relative difference formula to ...
From the USGS FAQ: the blue band is useful for "Bathymetric mapping, distinguishing soil from vegetation and deciduous from coniferous vegetation". It's my experience that you get better results by using band combination, however.
GIS file formats contain georeferencing information. This ties image pixel coordinates to grid references in a projection system, in this case British National Grid. There are lots of ways this information can be stored depending on image format. A basic tool to get you started is gdalinfo which will query the extents of the image in British National ...
Of course you can change the OpenLayers default z-index. Just overwrite the z-index default range before anything. OpenLayers.Map.prototype.Z_INDEX_BASE.Feature = 2000; OpenLayers.Map.prototype.Z_INDEX_BASE.Popup = 4000; OpenLayers.Map.prototype.Z_INDEX_BASE.Control = 5000; var map = new OpenLayers.Map(); ...
Achieved it by adding a pictureMarker of protractor PNG image. protactorLayer = new esri.layers.GraphicsLayer(); map.addLayer(this.protractorLayer); protractorGraphic = protactorLayer.add(new esri.Graphic(geometry, new esri.symbol.PictureMarkerSymbol('images/protractor.png', 250, 250)));
Try converting your file to another/the same format (Raster/conversion/translate(convert format).There you can define a value for "no data", which you can set to a number different than 0. Hope it helps
It looks like GDAL is describing the outer edge of the 'origin pixel' and Arcmap is refering to the center of the origin pixel. If you add half the resolution of a pixel they'll match fine. This definition is often different with different software, it doesnt really matter, though you should know what you're looking at so you can take it into account. One ...
It's normal that azimuth and range resolution of SAR sensors differ, because they depend on different variables: The azimuth resolution (AR) of a SAR system is: AR=Length_of_antenna/2 The slant range resolution (SRR) of a SAR system is: SRR=(Speed_of_light*pulse_length)/2 The ground range resolution (GRR) of a SAR system is: ...
Otsu thresholding and classic image processing algorithms on radiometrically calibrated Sentinel-1 SAR images
Otsu's method does not really care about actual values since it tries to minimize the total variance within classes while maximizing the distance between the classes. So, you could just run Otsu on your original data (no need to rescale) and it will provide you with the optimal threshold to use to achieve the goal listed above. I don't know what is your ...
Combined pan-sharpening, contrast stretching, and gamma stretching functions If you have access to ArcGIS (and the Spatial Analyst Extension) you can use the technique described in this blog to "blend" DEM (or imagery) with shaded relief. The main disadvantage of this solution is that it is static; you need to produce an RGB raster from your DEM so if you ...
In theory, it should be possible to create one layer, add images as features with externalGraphic, and set their size (graphicWidth, graphicHeight) dynamically by context function. This will "emulate" georeferenced images. In practice, first problem is - after changing zoom, when feature's origin is not on screen, it's not displayed. Zoom in in example, and ...
I would use style's context object which calculates graphicWidth and graphicHeight depending on current map resolution. It applies to you first option (Vector layer).
You have tagged your question with OpenStreetMap, so I am assuming you are interested in the data in OSM's zoom levels. Please have a look at: Zoom Levels Usually you would not look at the whole world, at the same zoom level, as you would a small city. Your example is at zoom level 17, which has a scale of 1:4000. You would look at the world either at ...
Another approach that doesn't generate a new image - specially in a situation where you have a plethora of large raster datasets - but uses the existing ones could be using the gdalbuildvrt command line: it gives you more control for the output through its options and you don't need to provide the txt file with the raster list if all of your images are in a ...

Leave me now, I will rest forever
Below this frozen earth
All that's left are memories
Loose your hand from mine, so pale and cold
Turn away, spare yourself from sorrow
There beyond the stars I wonder
Where meadows spread out vastly, endlessly
And the pain is gone forever
Those who sing me to sleep come from eldest stream
Silent shrine with my deliverance
Left alone to grieve with thee
Twilight besieges your collapsing universe
Which long ago was doomed to vanish

The Film History faculty at Sarah Lawrence College will present a one-day symposium on French filmmaker Robert Bresson, to be held at the College on Friday December 13, beginning at 9:45 a.m. in the Film Viewing Room of the Performing Arts Center. The symposium will include a film presentation and papers presented by scholars of Bresson and French cinema.
The morning session, beginning with coffee at 9:45 a.m., will include an introduction by Sarah Lawrence Film faculty member Malcolm Turvey and a presentation by filmmaker Babette Mangolte on her work in progress Breaking Silence/Les Modeles de Pickpocket, about the making of Bresson's Pickpocket. The afternoon session will begin at 2:30 p.m. in Titsworth Lecture Hall and will include By Film History faculty member Gilberto Perez, Alan Williams, Professor of French and Cinema Studies at Rutgers University; Brian Price, Professor of Cinema Studies and Writing at New York University; and Tony Pipolo of the Film Certificate Program at the Graduate School of the City University of New York. A reception will follow at 5 p.m.
Although he only made thirteen feature films and one short film in a career that spanned six decades, Robert Bresson is one of the most original and revered film artists. His films are known for their austere style, their idiosyncratic adaptation of a wide range of literary sources (Dostoyevsky, Bernanos, Tolstoy, the Arthurian legends), and their preoccupation with themes such as alienation, grace, faith, and communication.
This event is sponsored by the Noble Foundation Chair in Art and Cultural History of Sarah Lawrence and is open to the public. For more information, please call (914) 395 2230.

6 Brothaz In A CadillacDVD
No Longer Available
(Get e-mailed if ever back in stock)
Product Details
Producer: Michael Jude Murphy
Tags: LV; Mighty Casey; Motive; Oktober; Tre Hardson; Wildchild; The Pharcyde; 2 For 5
Summary"6 Brothaz In A Cadillac" is a realistic satire about racism, hip hop, friendship, social awareness, and driving around neighborhoods in a snot-colored Cadillac smoking alot of weed.
The movie's plot is about 6 friends, all aspiring hip hop artists, who roam the town in a old school booger- green colored Cadillac, and encounter situations that make the sixtet realize that the words we use can either empower us, or make us sterotypical in the eyes of society. The 6 come across friends and opposers on their one day journey, and all the while displaying lyrical talent and social awareness. The 6 take us on a one day tour through the neighborhood hang outs, weed spots, and even jail, all on the way to the nights final event, the local 'Battle Royale' hip hop showcase, where the 6 use what they've learned and manifest it through hip hop music. The 6 rhyme consciously against other crews: 'The Rude Jude Crew', a cool ass hassidic jew rap group, 'Latin & Patent', a hilarious puerto rican/ mexican duo, 'Crew Wonderbread', a typical but ambitious suburban white rap group, and the cute & sexy 'Short Tease', a female rap group who can hang with the big boys. The setting for this movie is Anywhere, USA, meaning that this one day experience is relatable to any 'hood' in America, and can relate to its youth.
The 6 main characters each have their own personality and style. 'Stanley', played by Oktober Zero, is a flashy, foul mouthed, overprivelaged rapper that everyone loves to hate. 'Blacs', played by Wildchild from Lootpack, is a humble but fierce ex-football player who is true to his word and doesnt take the 'N' word lightly. 'Militant Mic', played by Tre Hardson of The Pharcyde, is the conscious and peaceful brother who constantly reminds his peers to be aware of knowledge of self, karma, and over all, being positive. 'LP45', played by Motive of The Demigods/ Doe Rakers, plays the street savy, weed smoking realist who doesnt find much funny..until he gets high. Mighty Casey, well known for his BET uncut hit video "White Girls", plays the half white/ half black 'Mule', a comedian rapper who always keeps the situation light hearted and entertaining, and 'Pookie', played by Middletown, CT's local hero, LV, is the crippled, but highly talented rapper who seems to be the most reasonable in tense situations, dont be fooled by his limp!
"6 Brothaz In A Cadillac" is a movie for those who are culturally aware and involved. It is also a movie for those young, street brothers and sisters who need a better perspective on the language we use, how to respect ourselves, and take pride in who we are.

I had a shellac mani and pedi, after a friend recommended the treatment. Although the place is a bit shabby, the staff are very friendly and the lady doing the nail treatment was very good and focused on the job rather than chatting., which I really appreciated. This was the first time I'd tried a shellac and although I'd say perhaps it could have been ever so slightly neater, I would definitely go back here again as the service and treatment was good and £25 is very reasonable .

From the Sonics' beginnings in 1967, when Seattle was just emerging as a major-league city, until 1992, Bob Blackburn was "The Voice" of the Seattle SuperSonics. He was a broadcaster who felt like a friend.
Before a recent screening of the remarkable documentary "Sonicsgate" at SIFF Cinema, an audio recording played the sweetest background music I've ever heard in a movie theater.
Bob Blackburn was calling the final moments of the climactic Game 5 of the Sonics' one and only NBA championship in 1979.
These may have been the most important minutes in Seattle's sports history, and you could feel the emotion building in Bob's voice. His speech quickened. His voice got higher. He was taking his listeners on the same euphoric ride he was on.
Bob not only described the action on the court, he told us what was happening on the Sonics' bench. Les Habegger, for instance, was dancing in front of the players as the final seconds slipped off the clock.
- Seattle-area home prices set record; 2nd-fastest rising in nation
- Students seeking sugar daddies for tuition, rent
- Florida man runs over couple on motorcycle during road-rage incident
- The best deli in Seattle that you've probably never heard of
- South Florida officers find 2 alligators eating human body
Most Read Stories
From the Sonics' beginnings in 1967, when Seattle was just emerging as a major-league city, until 1992, Bob Blackburn was "The Voice" of the Seattle SuperSonics. He was a broadcaster who felt like a friend.
The city grew up as a sports town with him. He took us from the expansion season through the dramatic signing of wunderkind Spencer Haywood and the hiring of the legendary Bill Russell as coach.
Owner Sam Schulman believed basketball should be an entertainment extravaganza, and Bob was the perfect emcee for Schulman's traveling show. He was as excited by the performances he witnessed as the most passionate fan. And that excitement always came across in his calls of the games.
Bob made us understand how wondrous it was to have an NBA team in town. He was there, courtside, when they all came to town, from Wilt Chamberlain and Russell, to Jerry West and John Havlicek, to Magic Johnson and Larry Bird, to Michael Jordan.
If he ever got tired, we never heard it in his voice. He had as much energy at the end of a six-game East Coast swing as he did on opening night. And he could make a ho-hum game in Kansas City as exciting as Game 7 of the Finals.
His engine revved like Gus Williams on the break. He was so full of life, it made the rest of us jealous, wondering what he knew that none of the rest of us knew.
Whether it was on the tennis court, at an auction, at one of his favorite fishing spots or courtside in front of a microphone, Bob lived his life at full throttle.
More than anything, he was genuine and I can't think of a better compliment to give a person. He believed he had the best job on earth, and that belief came across every time we listened to him call a Sonics game.
In a business full of cynics, there wasn't an ounce of cynicism in Bob Blackburn.
On Friday, the energy field we knew as Bob Blackburn finally rested. He died of pneumonia at the age of 85.
Bob was everything we wanted our sports heroes to be, and make no mistake about it, Bob was a sports hero.
He was married to wife Pat for 61 years. They had six kids, but the truth is, Bob belonged to all of us. He belonged to everyone who listened on wet, cold winter nights, from exotic outposts like Cobo Arena in downtown Detroit, or Chicago Stadium, or Madison Square Garden.
Those of who wanted to live that lifestyle envied his position. He was our travel guide, a National Geographic for sports fans, taking us to places most of us only dreamed of going.
Later, I was lucky enough to live that lifestyle with Bob. I remember one night, standing by the scorer's table before a game at the Forum in Inglewood, Calif.
To our left, Magic was casually lofting set shots. On our right, Fred Brown was launching jumpers as soft as snowflakes. Tipoff still was an hour away, but Bob's motor already was humming.
"This is going to be a great night," Bob said, as excited as if it were his maiden broadcast. "SuperSonics and Lakers. And here we are. And we're getting paid to do this?"
On its official Web site Friday, the Oklahoma City Thunder attempted to pay tribute to Bob. The very same people who robbed him of his team tried to make it seem as if he belonged to them.
He didn't. He doesn't.
Bob Blackburn is as Seattle as the Space Needle. He always will be ours. And his voice will continue to be heard in this town for eternity.

I'd like to have access to them from my computer, but it seems silly to have to log into the separate iCloud website just for that one thing. I'm a Windows user, so I don't have an "iCal" app like Mac users get. I've heard that I might be able to do this by setting up my Gmail account as a Google Sync account, but I don't quite know that means. Any advice you can give me would be great.
- Edwin
A: Unfortunately, there is really no straightforward way to do this. Although iOS Reminders can be synced via the standard CalDAV protocol—the same method that the iOS Calendars app uses to sync with Google Calendar—Google Tasks are unfortunately not accessible via CalDAV.
Google Sync is a feature whereby Gmail users can get "push" e-mail, calendar, and contacts using Microsoft's Exchange ActiveSync technology, however Google has discontinued this service for standard Gmail users; it remains available only to business, education and government customers. Further, however, although the Exchange ActiveSync protocol allows for the syncing of Reminders with an actual Microsoft Exchange server, Google has similarly not provided any access to Google Tasks via Google Sync.
If you want to use Google Tasks, this means that your only option is to look to a third-party app designed to work with this service. Since Google's release of its Tasks API, several apps for Google Tasks have appeared on the App Store, however these act as replacements for the built-in Reminders app.
Third-party tools could potentially bridge the gap between the two services, but there do not appear to currently be any such tools available. If you're using Microsoft Outlook, you can sync Reminders via the iCloud Control Panel for Windows and sync Google Tasks via Google Apps Sync for Microsoft Outlook, however your tasks will sync to two separate data files, so this still doesn't provide a solution for easily moving tasks/reminders between the two services. Further, Google Apps Sync for Microsoft Outlook also requires a paid Google Apps for Business account.

Office365 (Microsoft's "Google Apps", not the MS Office Suite) does sync with iOS Reminders. Nice doing it this way, as you get some extra fields—apparently they're present in iOS, but Apple 'hides' them. It's useful as you get a reminder-date >and< a due-date—lots of users want to be 'reminded' about something 'due' in the future.
Outlook.com accounts sync directly with iOS Reminders as well.

For iOS, I use Beesy. In my professional life, it allows me to manage and organize my tasks to be as productive as possible. This tool is a real help, thanks to the various sync that it offers.

The following are the latest daily summaries of my ongoing
intraday coverage, providing context to interpret price action. Any
prices listed are for a contract's current "front month." Their
direction tends to correlate with any ETFs listed for each.
Today's Highlight:
Gold extended down Monday relatively more aggressively than silver.
And gold's extension down was essentially ignored by currencies.
Its reaction up from testing last week's buy signals is obligatory.
Extending higher Tuesday would be bullish.
Dollar Basket
Dec Contract DX; (NYSEARCA:UUP), (NYSEARCA:UDN)
Eerily narrow ranging Monday all but ignored volatility in precious
metals and energies. There is no new signal.
Dec Contract EC; (NYSEARCA:FXE)
Narrow ranging Monday was no longer "ineffectual optimism" that had
inhibited a sell-off Friday. The hesitation under 1.3580 without
actually reversing down does suggest it will at least be tested. No
sell-off before then would be credible.
Dec Contract GC; (NYSEARCA:GLD)
Overnight selling tested 1321.00 down to 1313.00, which were both
off last week's buy signals. Just holding a test of 1321.00
suggests that sellers have been absorbed. Closing back above
1325.00 signals momentum is probably reversing up, although closing
above 1330.50 Tuesday is needed to confirm.
Dec Contract SI; (NYSEARCA:SLV)
Monday's gap down immediately filled the 22.70 gap and had little
difficulty recovering to probe positive territory. Closing positive
Tuesday would signal that the drop had ended.
30-Year Treasury
Dec Contract US; (NYSEARCA:TLT)
Overnight weakness was recovered back into positive territory, but
perhaps only as a flight-to-safety while stocks slid. Their
recovery intraday didn't help, as 132-00 was still being tested
through the afternoon.
Crude Oil
Oct Contract CL; (NYSEARCA:USO)
The drop extended Monday and probed under its interim to suggest
the recent slide from retesting 107.85 (basis Nov, 108.75 basis
Oct) wasn't just noise within the range. There is no active signal.
Natural Gas
Oct Contract NG; (NYSEARCA:UNG), (NYSEARCA:UNL)
Having failed to rally yet from multiple tests of support, Monday's
delay in extending higher was already bearish, but extending down
to fresh lows testing 3.60 only confirmed. There is no active

Joyce established a used clothing and cushion business. Joyce has already received and successfully repaid two loans from SELFINA, and now requires a loan of $1,200 in order to purchase additional stock in bulk. She thanks you for your support.
Joyce is a perfect example of why microfinance works and why the large majority of clients repay their loans. A lot of people who hear about microfinance (or kiva.org) for the first time, ask anxiously, "but how do you make sure people pay it back? Won't they just take the money?"
The implication is that the clientele who access microfinance (usually the 'poor') are less trustworthy, efficient or educated than 'ordinary' people. Whether or not this is true is somewhat irrelevant, for a number of reasons.
First, most MFIs have due diligence processes in place to assess client risk, as well as measures such as collateral arrangements and group lending (where a defaulted loan is borne by the group as a whole) to address this risk.
More important than any of these deterrents, however, is an incentive.
The incentive clients have to start a business, build a business, and repay their loan so that they can get another and another and another…The incentive to have ongoing access to financial services from which they had previously been excluded.

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Ohio's Republican Senator, one of the most active opponents of same-sex marriage, announced yesterday that he has reversed his position since learning one of his sons is gay.
"I'm announcing today a change of heart," he told reporters from the state's major newspapers yesterday.
He also explained his change of position in an op-ed for the Columbus Dispatch.
One of the co-sponsors of the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act as a Congressman, Portman now says government shouldn't deny same-sex couples the opportunity to have "joy and stability."
Portman says he was staunchly against gay marriage until 2011, when his son came out and changed his perspective.
"My son came to Jane, my, wife and I and told us that he was gay and that it was not a choice and that that's just part of who he is, he'd been that was ever since he could remember. And, that launched an interesting process for me," Portman said.
The Supreme Court next week hears arguments on a challenge to the Defense of Marriage Act, which bars federal recognition of same-sex marriage, and the "Dispatch" reports that Portman believes the court should strike down the portion of the law that defines marriage as between a man and a woman.

The Cornhusker Pushback
State AGs say Ben Nelson's Medicaid deal is unconstitutional.
'It's not a special deal,'' Ben Nelson told the New York Times of the special deal that converted him into the 60th Senator for ObamaCare. "It's a fair deal. Some people said I was getting money for Nebraska. That's wrong. I was just getting rid of an underfunded federal mandate. There's nothing sleazy about it. I cracked the door open for other states."
The other states think somewhat less of Mr. Nelson's benevolence. Under the "Cornhusker Kickback," the federal government will pay all of Nebraska's new Medicaid costs forever, while taxpayers in the other 49 states will see their budgets explode as this safety-net program for the poor is expanded to one out of every five Americans.
"In addition to violating the most basic and universally held notions of what is fair and just," the AGs wrote last week to the Democratic leadership, the Article I spending clause is limited to "general Welfare." If Congress claims to be legitimately serving that interest by expanding the joint state-federal Medicaid program, then why is it relieving just one state of a mandate that otherwise applies to all states? In other words, serving the nongeneral welfare of Nebraska—for no other reason than political expediency—violates a basic Supreme Court check on the "display of arbitrary power" that was established in 1937's Helvering v. Davis.
Obviously Congress treats different states differently all the time, via earmarks and the like, but in this case there is simply no plausible argument for some kind of "general" benefit. The only state that gains from special treatment for Nebraska is Nebraska—and this actively harms all other states, which will have fewer tax dollars for their own priorities while effectively subsidizing the Cornhusker state.
The 12 Attorneys General are all Republicans, but as it happens their complaints are echoed by the liberal states of New York and California. In a December letter Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger lamented that ObamaCare would impose the "crushing new burden" of as much as $4 billion per year in new Medicaid spending in a state that is already deeply in the red. And in a Christmas Day op-ed in the Buffalo News, New York Governor David A. Paterson protested the almost $1 billion in new costs as well as the "unfairness of the Senate bill" when "New York already sends significantly more money to Washington than it gets back."
The reality is that national taxpayers have subsidized New York and California's social services for years because Medicaid's funding formula rewards higher state spending. That spending helps explain why these two states, plus New Jersey, are in such budget fixes today. But we welcome Mr. Paterson's discovery that redistributing income via progressive taxation is harmful.
"The final bill must provide equitable federal funding to all states," Mr. Paterson insisted, and in that sense Mr. Nelson may be right about his opening the political door. As Democrats merge the House and Senate bills, they may extend the 100% Nebraska deal to all states to shut them up, assuming they can rig the budget math. Of course, that gambit would harm either medical providers, given that state Medicaid reimbursement rates are well below even Medicare's, or Medicaid patients, as more doctors and hospitals simply drop those patients.
We recognize that mere Constitutional arguments won't deter the political juggernaut that is ObamaCare. But no one should be surprised when Americans wonder if this unprecedented federal intrusion into their lives violates our nation's founding principles.

Multiple law enforcement agencies in Oklahoma City receive suspicious parcels
Suspicious substances and packages were sent to four state and federal agencies Thursday, but there are indications the incidents were a hoax.
The first package was received by the U.S. attorney's office in the First Oklahoma Tower, 210 Park Ave.
A letter was opened and the message and a white substance fell to the floor, said Bob Troester, a spokesman for the U.S. attorney's office.
No evacuations were made, but heat and air services were turned off immediately after the letter was opened. Initial tests of the substance came back negative for anthrax, Troester said.
A similar suspicious package was found at the federal courthouse, a spokesman for the U.S. Marshals Service said.
The U.S. Marshals Service would not say what was inside the package or if the package and letter were from the same sender.
The state attorney general's office also received a suspicious package.
"We knew it was coming. When it came, we worked with emergency officials. But we knew that it was coming ahead of time and that it probably wasn't dangerous," spokeswoman Diane Clay said.
Clay said a letter included in one of the packages stated what other agencies would be receiving a package throughout the day.
And about 5 p.m., Oklahoma City firefighters were called to the FBI field office, 3301 W Memorial Road, to investigate a suspicious powder, fire Battalion Chief Brian Stanaland said.
No arrests were reported Thursday, and no suspect information was released by authorities.

Leonarda is a mature lady who is 52 years old. She is divorced and has four children. She says that she has participated in other community banks and with the money her business has grown and she has been able to improve her living conditions. Her business started with a small stall in the doorway of her home from where she sold deep-fried chicken. Over time she managed to make the alterations necessary to open a guesthouse. In addition, she comments that some years ago she received a check up in the doctor's office at Pro Mujer which saved her life since it diagnosed an illness which required an emergency operation.
The loan she has requested of 2000 bolivianos will be used to buy supplies for her guest house. With respect to the businesses which the rest of the organization's members carry out, they are varied and include: guest house, hand-made wool pictures, making braided rugs, embroideries, dressmaking, cosmetics sales, buying and selling of silver and gold, and grocery sales.

Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

This paper describes the work done on the design of a 1-D array using the dual-flared microstrip slot antenna (DFMSA). Following up on earlier work, rectangular cavities without absorbers are now used to improve on the realised gain of a single element. The use of a rectangular cavity reduces its dimensions so it can be packed more closely in a 1-D array. In the 5.9 GHz-7.0 GHz band, the 1/spl times/8 element array has a radiation efficiency of about 75% and a realized gain of between 9.5 dBi and 12.5 dBi. Axial ratio is less than 3 dB in most cases. Such an array could find applications on airborne satellite based communication systems such as those found on commercial airliners.
