Product Details
Convenient Dial Readout Determining and reading your weights with this scale is super easy. Just give the dial a twist until it is balanced, then read your weights. Since this scale uses a dial instead of a beam to get precise weights, ya won't have to worry about sliding that little poise back and forth trying to get the perfect weight.
Tare Poise This mechanical balance comes equipped with a tare poise. This will let ya set the balance to zero before weighing without the need for additional counter weights. You can tare up to 225 grams of weight with this beam balance.
Stainless Steel Platform This mechanical scale has a durable stainless steel weighing platform to make cleanup a breeze. Unlike gold or silver, stainless steel doesn't scratch easily and keeps its shine without rusting or tarnishing.
Tiered Weighing Beams When ya need to read different beams to get your weights, it can be a real pain if they're in front of one another. 1650 W0 dial o gram beam scale was designed with beams that stair step, and a dial for easy readings...the beams are even notched to keep your weight readings in place.
Magnetic Damping You don't have to worry about this balance bouncing around taking forever to stabilize. Ohaus was smart with this 3 beam and designed it with a magnetic damping system to make weighing and reading your weights quick and painless.
5 YEAR MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY! When ya get this mechanical scale, ya need to go over to the Ohaus website and register it to receive your five year warranty.

Marianna, FL - On 1-13-2011 while officers of the Marianna Police Department, the Jackson County Sheriffs Office, the Washington County Sheriffs Office, and Florida Highway Patrol were conducting a man hunt for a suspect that was involved in a violent felony incident in Washington County; a known associate of the suspect, Heather Bytell, was spotted as she was leaving the area in her vehicle with what appeared to be a black male subject in the passenger seat.
Believing that the black male was the suspect wanted out of Washington County, a felony traffic stop was conducted on the vehicle. The driver of the vehicle, Heather Bytell, was removed from the vehicle, and as she was assisted to her feet a unlabeled transparent pill bottle could be seen in plain sight sticking up out of Bytell's front pants pocket. Plastic baggies and white powder could be seen plainly in the bottle. Suspecting that the content of the bottle was a controlled substance it was secured and did field test positive for cocaine. The suspected cocaine was package in the bottle in multiple little plastic bags.
Based on this probable cause Bytell was arrested and charged for possession of cocaine with intent to sell. Bytell was processed at the Marianna Police Department and transported to the Jackson County Correction Facility to await first appearance.

Woman fired by dentist for being too attractive speaks out on court ruling that sided with boss
Melissa Nelson worked as a dental assistant for 10 years and thought she would make it her lifelong career. But that dream came to a sudden end in 2010 when her employer fired her for being too attractive.
Fort Dodge, Iowa, dentist James Knight said he fired Nelson to save his marriage, and in December the Iowa State Court backed his argument. Justice Edward Mansfield wrote that such firings are not unlawful discrimination because they are motivated by feelings and emotions, not gender.
On HuffPost Live Wednesday, Nelson and her attorney, Paige Fielder, disputed the ruling and said they hope to have it overturned. Fielder filed a petition this week requesting a rehearing.

You are an incredible woman and I am very sorry for your loss. I wanted to thank you for your last post and I'm sure it must have been very difficult for you to write. It really meant so much to me as I am a 45 yo father of 4. It is very difficult for a parent to determine what to say to their children, when to say it, and in how much detail. My kids ages range from 9 to 15 and I don't give each child the same amount of details. I agonize over this on a daily basis and truly appreciate your input.

Well, had a repeat PET/CT scan done last Tuesday and, unfortunately, not what I was hoping for. In summary, the tumors have all gotten larger, the metabolic activity has increased significantly, and more mets were found.
I had bilateral biliary stents placed in September and now one has been infiltrated with tumor. I am currently in Thomas Jefferson Hospital awaiting a stent replacement and another biopsy (to submit for genetic sequencing) in tha AM. Really hoping this isn't a sign of things to come in 2014

Hi Stacie. I am very sorry to hear what you and your mom are going through. You have a tremendous amount of support within this organization and we are glad you are with us. I am also on 5-FU plus leucovorin with a 3 rd agent added called Tarceva. Is this what the Dr is suggesting to add to your mom's regimen? If so, I would be happy to share my experience with it as I have been on it since September.

Hi Kris
Thanks so much for the info. I am otherwise healthy and now that I haven't been on GEMOX for a few weeks am feeling much better ( also experienced severe SEs). I am interested in the trial you are in and when I followed your link I got a journal article on adjuvant chemotherapy. Any chance you can point me to the details of the trial such as enrollment, inclusion/exclusion criteria, etc.? I'm not having much look with clinicaltrials.gov due to govt shutdown.
Thanks again!

Topic: Recently Diagnosed (12 replies, posted in Introductions!)
Hello fellow fighters!
I'm a 45 year old husband and father of 4 (ages 14-9; Fantastic4) and was diagnosed with Stage IV CC this past May. I have mets to liver, gallbladder, and both lungs which also means I'm not a candidate for surgery or radiation. My palliative chemo regimen started with GEMOX and I went through 8 cycles of every other week. I had some clinical progression and had bilateral stents placed in September at which time we also added Tarceva. Due to neuropathies, BMS, and progression, my oncologist has switched regimen to 5-FU + leucovorin weekly and Tarceva daily. I will be getting a repeat Pet scan the end of this week or next week. I've been monitoring the clinical trials offered on clinicaltrials.gov and have really not found anything too exciting as of yet. I have consulted with Penn, Fox Chase, and Jefferson. Although my prognosis is grim, I have the advantage of a phenomenal wife providing tremendous amounts of love and support, 4 terrific kids, relatively young age with no other comorbidities, and an extremely positive attitude.
Just wanted to introduce myself, give a brief history, and thank everyone for their participation and support.
Thank You!


text: [[quoteright:353:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ps2_michigan_report_from_hell_287.jpg]]''Michigan: Report from Hell'' is a 2004 SurvivalHorror video game developed by Grasshopper Manufacture for the UsefulNotes/PlayStation2. The player controls a cameraman of the Zaka TV news crew who are investigating the strange goings on in Chicago after it's covered by a mysterious fog along with sound engineer Jean-Philippe Brisco and one of six reporters. The game is played from the first person perspective as the cameraman, rather than take actions himself, [[PointAndClickGame highlights]] objects for the reporter to interact with, or enemies for her to shoot. If the reporter is killed, the game will skip to the next level where you meet with a new reporter.----!! This series provides examples of:* ActionGirl: Nina actually brags about killing a bear at one point.* AlliterativeName: The second reporter, Ann Anderson.* AndYourRewardIsClothes: Completing the game in certain ways unlocks alternate outfits for Brisco and various reporters.* AnyoneCanDie: And you can let them.* ApocalypticLog* ArtisticLicenseBiology* ArtisticLicenseGeography: There is a level that takes place in a camping lodge on the mountains somewhere in Chicago. While it ''is'' a big city, the nearest mountain range to Chicago is a few hundred miles away, in the east parts of Ohio and Kentucky (and even there, it's a stretch).* AssholeVictim: If you let her be, Ann.* BlackDudeDiesFirst: [[spoiler:Inverted, Brisco's the last person you see die in the game. Technically ''second'' to last if you count the Player Character.]]* BodyHorror: Courtesy of the Gagne Virus.%%* CaptainObvious: Brisco. ''Just Brisco''.* ChronicHeroSyndrome: The reporters tend to be this way, putting themselves InHarmsWay to try and help others as well as searching for a story. {{Lampshaded}} by Brisco, who doesn't share either sentiment and would rather just get out of Chicago alive.* ContrivedCoincidence[=/=]DangerouslyGenreSavvy: Some people note that the characters ''just seem so aware of their surroundings'', to the point that, in a part where Justine, a woman you're trying to save, is shackled to a billiard table, everyone immediately comes to the conclusion that they have to put in ''missing billiard balls'' to help release Justine. Their course of action was ''correct''.* CorruptCorporateExecutive: Deborah.* DepopulationBomb: [[spoiler: The spastic, mentally challenged man (who is *supposedly* the original carrier of the Gagne virus) is a biological weapon of mass destruction.]]* DevilInPlainSight: [[spoiler:The Evil Ending's cameraman.]]* DidntThinkThisThrough: During the tutorial, Brisco offers to let you practice ramming on him. He ''does'' realize that might not have been the best idea before you actually attempt it, but won't rescind the offer, instead asking that you just be careful.* DownerEnding: [[spoiler:No matter what ending you get, the protagonist dies via assassination (the only difference is his attitude toward the whole thing), leaving the entire thing unexplained and information undisclosed.]]* DrivenToSuicide: The owner of the hotel you stay in at one point, after an infectee guest mutated and killed his wife.** Also [[spoiler:[[ZombieInfectee Brisco]]]]* DudeWheresMyRespect: Brisco reacts this way if you save [[spoiler:Justine from being crushed]], as she rewards ''you'' with a kiss but snubs him.* EatenAlive: A frequent cause of death.* EscortMission: The whole game; the player character usually can't die himself, but must protect his reporter.* TheFaceless: The cameraman, [[spoiler:until the end]]. Also used in one of the endings; specifically, [[spoiler:the Evil Ending, where the cameraman's ''still'' covered in shadows]].* FantasyKitchenSink: Along with the bioengineered virus, there are also hints of aliens and ghosts.* {{Foreshadowing}}: Brisco grows progressively more exhausted and irritable throughout the game, and mentions feeling dizzy and sick at several points. It seems innocuous, but [[spoiler:[[ZombieInfectee guess what.]]]]* FriendlyRival: Ann describes her relationship with Pamela this way.* GameBreakingBug: The bonus movie mode unlocked after completion is actually broken and can't be viewed normally.* GiantSpider: A glowing, Australian-sized one will jump on, bite, and kill the second reporter unless you knock her out of the way. If spotted early enough it will run off.* GoingForTheBigScoop* HeKnowsTooMuch: Leads to [[spoiler:the cameraman's death]].* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:Nina [[EatMe allows a monster to eat her]] so she can blow it up from inside and the cameraman and Brisco can escape.]]* IceQueen: Ann. Brisco can comment that she's got 'ice in her veins', due to how she's focused on GoingForTheBigScoop.* IdiotBall: The characters are prone to stupid moments. ''Very'' prone.* ImmuneToBullets: Any monster bigger than a leech.* ImprobableAimingSkills: All the reporters are armed; as long as the cameraman's focused on their target, they'll hit it every time.* IntrepidReporter* JumpScare: Appears in the [[spoiler:Evil ending]] complete with forewarning ShmuckBait: [[spoiler:"''Look closely''... It's me. It's '''me''', see?!"]]* JustifiedTutorial: Your cameraman is a rookie, so Brisco and Pamela take some time before the first shoot to help him practice.* KarmaMeter: Do you go for suspenseful footage, or erotic shots? A meter measures how far you move in either direction. If you choose to shove people around, let your reporter die or film strangers in mortal peril rather than trying to help, you also earn "Immoral Points", turning your meter from a simple gray bar to rusty barbed wire.* KarmicDeath: If the cameraman allows it, Ann can wind up being [[spoiler:EatenAlive shortly after complaining about how they didn't keep filming somebody else suffering the same fate]].* KillEmAll: ''No one'' survives this experience.* LaughingMad: [[spoiler:Brisco]] goes into this during [[spoiler:the secret photo shoot]].* LoveMakesYouDumb: [[spoiler: Faced with a zombifying boyfriend, Carly opts for the odd tactic of embracing him instead of shooting him point-blank. Scratch one reporter.]]* MaleGaze: Similar to ''VideoGame/DeadRising'', you can earn Erotic Points from recording [[PantyShot areas of interest]].* ManipulativeBitch: Deborah. At one point, your reporter and Brisco go into her office furious and mistrustful, about to make her account for sending innocent reporters to a a hellhole like Chicago, but a few chosen words later, and they're both (if not entirely on her side) at least following her orders to continue investigating. Brisco thinks she may have a CompellingVoice, but neither he or the reporters are overly bright, so it seems unlikely.* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: The game implies it's genetic tampering causing the monsters, but you see several signs of the supernatural, as well.* MegaCorp: It's not exactly clear what the [=ZaKa=] corporation ''does'', officially, but at the least, they have their fingers in bioengineering and entertainment. * MultipleEndings: Besides the normal S, I, and E endings, you also get a special ending if your Immorality points are ''insanely'' high. [[spoiler: [[DownerEnding But the protagonist dies in all of them, when he's about to reveal what happened]].]]* {{Mockumentary}}: A playable variant.* MonsterMisogyny: The monsters will only attack the female reporters, ignoring the cameraman and sound technician.** When you get the male reporter Mark, though, the monsters go for him too. * MsFanservice: The reporters, aside from Mark.* NeverGotToSayGoodbye: Brisco laments this after [[spoiler:Pamela's death]].* NothingIsScarier: A lot of the horror part of the game comes from the fact that there's mostly nothing there.* ObfuscatingStupidity: Paula appears to be an idiot, but [[http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/michigan/lost.htm the secret videos]] indicate that there may a lot more to her than there seems. (Note that the "Mysterious Man" mentioned on the page is pretty clearly her.)* OminousFog: Which is actually what Pamela's been sent to report on when the game starts.* PatientZero: [[spoiler:The final boss.]]* QuickTimeEvent: The cameraman can choose at certain points to put the camera down and help someone, or ignore the cue and keep rolling.* RammingAlwaysWorks: It's your camera guy's primary way of fighting back or taking action, since he usually can't put the camera down.* SayMyName: Brisco's usual reaction to a reporter's death is to scream their name several times, stretching it out the last time.* SchrodingersPlayerCharacter: The identity of [[spoiler:the cameraman]] actually changes depending on how you play.* ShootTheShaggyDog* SnowyScreenOfDeath: Appears quite often, cutting in and out to justify short 'jumps' in the footage.* SnubByOmission: Before each level, the name of your news reporter and sound engineer are listed. The nameless cameraman doesn't get any credit.** Although this is a log being written by the cameraman, so he probably doesn't see the need to list his own name.* TheStinger: Which is where the MultipleEndings come into play.* SyntheticPlague: Gagne [[spoiler: is an experimental bioweapon that was developed in a consortium by the [=ZaKa=] Conglomerate, the U.S. Government, and the U.S. Military.]]* ThisLoserIsYou[=/=]YouBastard: Used for TheReveal of [[spoiler:the cameraman's identity]], which changes based on your actions. Focus on Erotic Shots, for instance, and they turn out to be [[spoiler:a sniveling, creepy nerd who asks the viewer if they enjoyed his special footage]].* TimedMission: The player has until his [[JustifiedTrope film runs out]] to complete each level, but since they are usually given just over 30 minutes per level, it's rarely an issue. * TooDumbToLive: Certain characters go by B-Movie logic, so...* TragicMonster: [[spoiler:Pamela's fate.]]* TheUnReveal: [[spoiler: The cameraman is shot before he can disclose who's behind everything,]] * UngratefulBastard: If you save Ann from her potential KarmicDeath, she promptly starts chewing Brisco and the cameraman out again for not shooting more footage.* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: While in the nursing home, neither Brisco or your reporter care to comment on [[spoiler:the room full of bloody handprints]]. Brisco ''does'' react to [[spoiler:the child's specter]] inside, but decides he's seeing things.* VaginaDentata: A prominent monster type appears to be this, although some of the corpses it's attached to are male.* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: Choosing to film someone's gruesome death instead of acting to prevent it. Even worse, you can actually use your ramming technique to knock people into danger.* [[spoiler:VillainProtagonist]]: Earn so many Immoral points that they ''vastly'' outweigh the others, and [[spoiler:the cameraman claims '''he's''' the one behind everything]].* TheVirus* VocalEvolution: Inverted, the voice acting gets ''worse'' over time.* WhatTheHellHero: If the cameraman chooses to keep filming instead of acting to save somebody, Brisco will usually call him on it. {{Inverted}} by Ann, who chews him out for ''not'' keeping the camera running.* ZombieInfectee: [[spoiler:Brisco at the end]].

While surfing the Internet the other day I came across an interesting article out of Miami. The article was about Quartavious Davis, a 20 year-old African American male who was convicted of "participating in a string of armed robberies in the Miami area in 2010" when he was 18 years-old.
According to the article, Davis was made the fall guy in these robberies. Although he was not identified as the ring leader, his five accomplices in these crimes made deals with the prosecution. His accomplices "testified against him, saying he carried a gun" during their seven armed robberies at fast-food restaurants, a Walgreens pharmacy and other commercial establishments in the Miami area, and "discharged it at a dog that chased them after one of their burglaries. But Davis was not convicted of hurting anyone physically, including the dog."
What floored me when I read this article was the sentence he received—1,941 months – almost 162 years – in prison without the possibility of parole. He did not shoot or kill the dog and he did not shoot or kill a human being, so why is he now sitting in the Federal Detention Center in Miami for the rest of his life? He was not the ringleader and the witness, who one of Davis's accomplices testified that Davis got into an OK Corral style shootout with outside of a Wendy's, could not positively identify Davis as the person firing the gun. So, why has this young black man's life been cut short with such an egregious sentence and why hasn't someone like Jessie Jackson or Al Sharpton stepped forward to help right this wrong?
It's apparent that Florida is not an African American friendly state, especially as it relates to the justice system. It seems in Florida African Americans get the shortest end of the stick when it comes to the law. Justitia, aka Lady Justice, is really blind. Or should I say legal lynchings of African Americans are alive and well in Florida and across America.
Let's take the case of Marissa Alexander. The 31 year-old African-American mother of three was sentenced to 20 years in prison for firing a pistol twice into the air while trying to ward off an attack by her abusive husband who, reportedly, was trying to kill her. She was convicted of aggravated assault, which is a felony, and given the mandatory sentence for anyone who fires a gun in commission of a felony. In her defense, her attorneys tried to employ the "stand your ground law," the same law that George Zimmerman has been allowed to hide behind in his shooting, or should I say killing, of Trayvon Martin. But the district attorney said since Alexander left during the argument, went outside into her garage got a gun and returned to confront her abuser, who by the way had been arrested before for domestic violence, that the "stand your ground law" did not apply. The prosecutor argued that Alexander acted in anger and the judge agreed.
How is what George Zimmerman did any different than what Alexander did? Zimmerman was instructed to stay in his car until police arrived. However, he chose to ignore those instructions, got out of his car, stalked, accosted, shot and killed someone. In basketball terms, he initiated the contact. On the other hand Alexander gets the book thrown at her for refusing to take an "ass beating." Heaven forbid she had shot and killed the abuser in self defense. She would probably be on death row now.
Where is the justice for Marissa Alexander and Quartavious Davis? Where is the United States Justice Department and why is it silent on these matters? Oh, I forgot, the Republicans in Congress are trying to legally lynch another black man—the United States Attorney General Eric Holder, director of the United States Justice Department.

Just 10 years ago when law enforcement agencies went out to purchase long guns, they rarely looked at anything other than shotguns. Today, the AR and other military-style rifles dominate the market.
All sworn law enforcement officers carry at least one handgun. Smart ones carry more than one, if they're allowed to. That's why so much of the handgun market is focused on providing cops with handguns.
The first and foremost reason people use any form of mounted optics is they provide a fast, accurate sight. Second, be they red dot or truly telescopic, sights have shrunk in size, making them better suited for duty.

SBIR Phase I:Building a Flexible, Technology Adaptive Architecture to Support Processing of Content by Knowledge Workers

AbstractThis Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I Project addresses the gap between the capabilities of today's natural language processing systems and the accuracy requirements of knowledge workers (analysts and researchers) in language-sensitive fields such as public relations, foreign affairs, and crisis management. Knowledge workers in many organizations monitor and analyze print and web coverage for content of interest. When the volume of search results is large, some filter, classify and score the results with Natural Language Processing (NLP) systems using complex libraries of words, patterns, and context-specific algorithms. However, users complain that these systems fall short of desired accuracy, missing rhetorical devices such as irony, sarcasm, metaphors, double entendre, and improperly interpreting references. Users with high thresholds for accuracy thus turn to manual processes to either supplement or substitute for technology. This project will test a prototype architecture allowing rapid insertion, testing, and adaptation of text analysis algorithms and a workflow process efficiently integrating human review judgment. Once commercialized, the system will enable more rapid adoption of technology by knowledge workers. In fields with high accuracy requirements, the need for human judgment has constrained technology use to discrete areas like search, while in subsequent processing steps, analysts must manually capture, classify, score, analyze, and report on the output.

County Report
EcoFair organizers hope green catches on

Elkhorn — Brian Mathis of New Berlin and Ben Nelson of Oconomowoc didn't wait for Detroit to go green.
They built their own electric vehicles.
They showed off their handiwork at the second annual EcoFair 360 at the Walworth County Fairgrounds on July 9.
Among the purposes of the fair, which ran from July 8 to 10, was to provide ways for individuals and businesses to to reduce their carbon footprints and reduce energy costs.
It touted an open-air display of the alternative fuel vehicles.

It included exhibits of alternative energy generation: solar, wind, biomass; examples and demonstrations of organic gardening and information on green business money-saving ideas.
Transforming hydrocarbon-powered vehicles to a battery-powered lifestyle has an appeal, especially when the price of gas is on an upward trend, Mathis said.
Mathis, who just left the U.S. Air Force after 20 years of service, dropped an electric motor into an old Chevy S-10 pick up truck.
Changing from gasoline to battery power took just three days, he said.
When the S-10 body rusts out, it will take about three days or less to transfer the battery power plant to a new body, he said.
He said he's since upgraded from acid-lead batteries to lithium.
"I have not bought gas since December," said Mathis, who used to do maintenance on fighter jets.
He said the old S-10 is now his principle mode of transportation. The electric motor can get the truck up to 94 mph and has an operating range of 80 miles.
He drove the truck to EcoFair from New Berlin, and planned to drive it home that evening.
Nelson said he originally wanted to be a good consumer and buy his electric car off the lot.
He had his eyes on a Nissan Leaf, but, he said, a dealer told him the waiting list was two years long.
Not willing to wait that long, Nelson said he went to the Internet and began researching electric cars.
Using that information, Nelson dropped an electric forklift motor into a 1996 Geo Metro body.
The car also has an LP gas generator, which makes it a hybrid. It uses the LP gas-powered motor to recharge its batteries while it's on the go.
Nelson also converted a Kawasaki motorcycle to battery power.
Both vehicles use their original transmissions, he said.
He said after he converted his vehicles, he decided that to better understand the theories behind battery power, he should take an electronics course at the local community college.
"That's right, I did it backwards," Nelson said. "I built the car and motorcycle and then took the electronics course."
While Mathis and Nelson demonstrated the do-it-yourself spirit of some ecology-minded citizens, EcoFair organizers are wondering whether they're getting their message out to the public.
Last year's fair, the first, drew about 2,000 visitors, said Catherine McQueen of Delavan.
McQueen and her husband, Fritz Kreiss, co-coordinators of the fair.
The fair is organized by Eco-Vision Sustainable Learning Center of Lake Geneva.
McQueen said organizers were hoping to draw 4,000 this year.
Final attendance figures were not available as of deadline Tuesday.
"Our main mission is showing that sustainability is attainable and fun," McQueen said. "What better way to do it than in a fair setting?"
Steps were taken to make the fair more accessible. Entrance fees were cut.
Last year, it cost $15 a day to visit EcoFair. This year it was $7 a day.
And EcoFair 360 strived to be business and user-friendly, McQueen said.
She said EcoFair 360 embraced entrepreneurship and business.
"Green also means money," she said. "We want our vendors to go home happy."
McQueen said this year's fair had about the same number of local speakers and exhibitors as last year.
The exhibit buildings, which housed most of the exhibits and vendors, appeared busy, lined with the curious and ecologically savvy.
But the Walworth County Fairgrounds are huge and visitors to EcoFair 360 were widely dispersed, making it hard to judge how well the fair was received in its second year.
McQueen said the fair wants to show business that it is possible to "make money and be gentle to the planet at the same time."
Still, organizers were concerned that EcoFair is not generating quite the buzz among the public and businesses as hoped.
"Maybe it's the economy. Or the community isn't interested," McQueen said.
"But we're such optimists, we can't believe that," she added.

Developing Education Abroad at Community Colleges
Hulstrand, Janet, International Educator
OMMUNITY COLLEGES haven't traditionally been hotbeds of education abroad activity, but as local communities become more global, that is changing. Many community colleges today have success stories of building education abroad programs from scratch, expanding them toward larger operations to provide more options abroad for students, and some have even persevered through tough economic times to keep their programs running strong.
Building Programs From the Ground Up
City College of San Francisco (CCSF) began offering education abroad programs in 1984, making theirs among the longest-running community college education abroad programs in the nation.
"It's very important to make friends with everybody at your college across the board, and get a really good third-party provider or providers," Heffron adds. "Those two things can really make or break a program." When Heffron was new in her position she took the time to build relationships with all the people involved in making sure that students get overseas and get back home again successfully. "I work on an ongoing basis with admissions and records, tuition and fees, financial aid, the foreign language departments. the ethnic studies department, the art history department, human resources. If you don't have support from all those departments, it's going to be very challenging to get your job done," she says. "One of the first things I did was to sit down and spend time with people from all those areas, and get to know them. They saw my enthusiasm for making these opportunities available to our students, and how they could be a part of that. That's been very helpful." Also helpful, she says, has been a longstanding relationship with their third-party provider. "We started in 1984 with a company that used to be called Opportunities in International Learning and is now called Accent. I don't think I could do what I do without them. They provide a lot of resources that we. as a community college, just don't have." Heffron explains. "For example, because they have centers and staff onsite overseas, but we do not, they are able to provide expertise and up-to-date information in terms of the cultural, social, and political climates, to which we otherwise would not have easy or immediate access. The program model we use does not allow us to send U.S. faculty overseas to accompany students on semester-length programs, and this third-party provider both offers someone to act as our academic coordinator and finds us qualified instructors who live overseas. Being a one-person office is extremely challenging, and I depend on the support of Accent for assistance with the planning and pre-departure phases of the programs, including creating flyers and brochures, marketing, student enrollment, visa applications, orientations, and so on."
Dawn Wood, director of international programs at Kirkwood Community College in Cedar Rapids. Iowa, says that the Community Colleges for International Development Troika program offers a great opportunity for community colleges that don't have a study abroad office. "We used to work with Troika programs, and from there we developed our own infrastructure-an application process, contracts, insurance. etc.-all the things that are critical to running faculty-led programs." Wood says. "Troika is the logical first step for colleges that are just starting to develop programs. Even now. if we have a new faculty person who is interested in partnering with another institution in a specific area where we may not have a critical mass of student interest, Troika is a good option "
New technologies can also offer help to cash-strapped community colleges. "We were one of the first community colleges in the country to use Studio Abroad's content management database for the tracking of data," says Geoffrey Bradshaw, director of international education at Madison Area Technical College in Madison. Wisconsin. "This program and others like it allow small offices a robust tool for manag-ing all of the forms, releases, and medical information for students traveling abroad. …

The Ole Roll is Making a Giant Comeback!Submitted by Amy Acheson on Wed, 01/04/2012 - 11:53pm
The Ole Store Restaurant is "rolling" in the New Year with their famous Ole Roll — a gooey, caramelized sweet — to compliment a new breakfast menu beginning the weekend of January 21-22, 2012. The buttery pastry has long been a favorite of locals and out-of-town visitors to the Northfield landmark, nestled in a quaint neighborhood on the west side of town just down the hill from St. Olaf College.
The restaurant's soft opening, under new ownership this past summer, is what really began to stir the pot. Patrons were asking almost daily,"When are you bringing back the Ole Roll?" It was apparent to the new owners and management that the tradition of this well-known, sticky roll had really stuck. Armed with a couple of tried-and-true recipes passed down through the years, Executive Chef Chris Basina was up for the challenge to reintroduce the long-awaited roll.
A from-scratch recipe of this largest importance (and proportions) certainly couldn't be half-baked — "Research was an important step in the process," shared Basina. The chef also mentioned he'd be sprinkling in of few ideas of his own.

How to Get Lighter Hair at Home
Two Methods:Using Honey and Hair ConditionerUsing Lemon Juice Community Q&A
This is an easy, healthy way to get lighter hair at home for a cheap price.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
Method 1
Using Honey and Hair Conditioner
1Grab all of these things for this task. Honey, conditioner, a cereal bowl, a plastic bag, a towel, and a spoon. You could add an egg or banana for nourishment.
2Put two parts honey one part conditioner in to the bowl. Time to add extra ingredient if wanted.
3Stir the ingredients until mixed together.
4Let them sit for 10 to 15 minutes.
5Apply to hair, covering all of it. You may use a towel to put around your shoulders.
6Once applied put the bag around your head to lock in the heat and not make a mess.
7Let sit for 30 to 40 minutes then wash out.
Method 2
Using Lemon Juice
1Get lemon juice. Any real lemon juice is fine - you can squeeze it freshly from lemons, or buy lemon juice already squeezed. Just avoid any lemon drinks with added chemicals and sugar.
2Apply to hair however you want. For example, you can dip brush/comb into bowl of lemon juice and brush through, put your head over the bath/sink with the plug in and pour lemon juice over your head with a jug, or fill a spray bottle with a lemon juice and water mixture to spray it on your hair.
3Leave for 15 minutes at least. Longer is better, up to an hour or two. This works better in the sun, so during that time, go outside for a walk. Just beware of getting your skin burned by the sun - cover up or wear sunscreen as needed.
4Rinse your hair. Take a shower and use a good conditioner; lemon juice is very drying, so you'll want to replenish and re-soften your hair.
5Repeat this process weekly for about a month to see results.
