Why should we upgrade our Windows 2003 DC when extended support is there till 2015? We have about 20 servers mixed 2003 32 bit and 2008 64 bit member servers and about 100 W7 64 bit Clients. Our 32 bit Windows 2003 R2 Domain Controllers are running fine. They are on DL380 G3 so cannot be converted to 64 bit Windows 2008 R2 DCs. That means we have to buy new servers. Can we postpone upgrade to 2014 or 2015? Then we could just upgrade to latest Windows version.

As it currently stands, this question is not a good fit for our Q&A format. We expect answers to be supported by facts, references, or expertise, but this question will likely solicit debate, arguments, polling, or extended discussion. If you feel that this question can be improved and possibly reopened, visit the help center for guidance.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
Technically speaking, you could postpone upgrading indefinitely.
Your servers won't stop working when support runs out; you just won't be able to get official support on them.
I suspect that the proper course of action here is to postpone the update until you buy new servers that support 64 bit OS architectures, and then tackle the hardware upgrade and the software upgrade in the same project.
Just make sure both IT and the business understand the risk involved, which is that if something goes wrong, and you need support to help fix it, you won't be able to get official support, and might have to rebuild the domain... which would be far more costly than the price of a few servers and elevating the domain now.
Actually technical issue - you can not even NOW upgrade to the latest windows version, you have to upgrade in stages, 2008, then 2012. You are too old to directly upgrade. ANOTHER generation will likely mean 2 steps.
Then there is the issue that quite likely your 20 server are more like 3-4 when you get modern ones, less heat, less cost, but that seems irrelevant for you. Can well be.
Obviously you also do not care about the technical new things in there, so... ...no, do not update. Please come with all the problems when you do in 2 years.

The man in me will do nearly any task
And as for compensation, there's a little he would ask
Take a woman like you
To get through to the man in me
Storm clouds are raging all around my door
I think to myself I might not take it any more
Take a woman like your kind
To find the man in me
But, oh, what a wonderful feeling
Just to know that you are near
It sets my a heart a reeling
From my toes up to my ears
The man in me will hide sometimes to keep from bein' seen
But that's just because he doesn't want to turn into some machine
Took a woman like you
To get through to the man in me

|Nineveh Ranch is now home to Working Australian Shepherds, Dappled Boer Goats, and
Sarplaninac livestock guardian dogs.
If you are interested in one of these amazing guarding dogs, we plan to have a litter around June 2016. Many updates to come!
With our Nineveh Aussies, it is our goal to
preserve the natural working instinct that has made the Australian Shepherd on of America's favorite working companions.
A sound mind and structure are fundamental requirements in our breeding program, as well as great dispositions . We strive
to produce quality stock dogs that can make a hand in any setting. Whether you are running large cattle ranches, dairies, or
just need help with daily chores, we believe the right stock dog can prove to be invaluable. We stand behind our dogs. All of
our dogs are OFA'd and eyes CERF'd. Our Aussies are intelligent loyal working companions that make a great addition to
our family. Their merit is not based on their color or markings, but on their ability and heart. Like the Quarter Horse,
Aussies are athletic and versatile. Our Aussies also excel in agility, obedience, and therapy.

Castro's Quest
The Savior knocked out 3 hits including his 9th home run last year and is up to 190 hits. That's 10 hits shy of the magic 200 mark for the math impaired. He has 15 games to do it, which I don't believe will be a problem unless Q-Ball decides he needs another life lesson on the bench. By my back of the envelope calculations, if he stays healthy, he's on pace to reach 3,000 hits by age 36, sometime during the 2026 season.
No pressure.
- Baseball America took to some list making and recently rated the Cubs 2005 draft as the worst of the lot. A look at the 2006 draft, the first under Tim Wilken sees them moving up 5 spots.
$11.5 million investment in Tyler Colvin (1), Jeff Samardzija (5) has yet to pay off.
That year the Cubs lost their 2nd, 3rd and 4th round picks by signing Bob Howry (Type A), Scott Eyre (Type A) and Jacque Jones (Type B). Their 1st round pick was protected since it was in the top half of the draft. Other notable (notorious?) picks from that draft were Steve Clevenger, Jacob Renshaw (traded to Orioles for Trachsel), Chris Huseby ($1.3M bonus, released by Boston in August), Marcus Hatley, Matt Camp and Blake Parker.
- I've been trying to put together useful draft lists over at Wiklifield and have roughly gotten through 2009-2011. I think the 2009 one has some nifty information. You can now see bonus info that I can track down plus where the prospects are now. There's also a partial Cubs Draft Bonuses list that has started to come together. As I get more information inputted, the more it will fill out.
- Baseball Prospectus now has normalized sortabe minor league stats, although I'd prefer they defaulted to TAV rather than BWARP, cause who the hell would trust minor league fielding stats?
- According to Shawon Dunston Jr. and Arizona Phil, players report for Arizona Instructs this Thursday with the first game being next Friday, September 23rd.
- Poor John Gaub last night...makes his major league debut and is flawless in his first inning. Be nice to go out on a high note, but alas, Q-Ball decides to go a second inning with him and he ends up letting the first two runners on and they score.
- Tuesday's lineup
Castro SS, Barney 2B, Ramirez 3B, Pena 1B, LaHair RF, Soriano LF, Byrd CF, Soto C, Dempster P
Phillips 2B, Renteria SS, Votto 1B, Bruce RF, Alonso LF, Stubbs CF, Francisco 3B, Mesoraco C, Leake P
Cubs still in the 7th spot and going the wrong way.
- Smokies will battle Mobile (DBacks affiliate) in the Southern League Championship starting tomorrow. Marco Carrillo is the game 1 starter.
- Aramis Ramirez said that he wants a multi-year deal and is open to it being with the Cubs. That should make the offseason decision easy enough. Cubs should choose to exercise his $16M option, he wil then opt to void it and then the Cubs can offer him arbitration. He certainly won't accept it and the Cubs can get a first or second round pick for him if he signs elsewhere. And they still can try to negotiate a multi-year deal if they wish.
Re: Castro's Quest
Cashner made his first appearance since April and got his two outs including a strikeout.
Cashner pitched a few days ago - on the 9th.
Re: Castro's Quest
Yankees are the easy one.
I couldn't come up with the other two.
Colorado is actually really close (Helton, Giambi only 54 hits away).
Re: Castro's Quest
So that's why he didn't take Dempster out after 6 innings tonight. Way to go Q-ball, putting selfish interests ahead of the team's actual needs.
UPDATE: highest pitch count of the year for Dempster, 124 and rising, and most walks in a game this year. On verge of blowing any shot we have of coming back in this game, Q sits in the dugout counting his brain cell.
UPDATE 2: 129 pitches through 7. Dempster gets a brain dead Jay Bruce looking on a called 3rd strike, stranding runners at 1st and 3rd. Q greets Dempster in the dugout and asks if he can go all the way.

Re: Castro's Quest
Still viable (=playing somewhere) 2006 draftees are Colvin (1), Samardzija (5), Clevenger (7), Parker (16), Latham (29), Samson (34), Smith (35) and Hatley (39).
I only see Veal (2) still viable among Stockstill's class of '05.
Re: Castro's Quest
Latham was booted out of the organization for reasons unknown (to me) and he missed the 2009 season. Since his return last year he has had control issues, but maybe they still like his arm.
Samson is the guy who reminds me of Theriot, although he doesn't steal bases. Smokies mgr. Brian Harper seems to like Samson and has given him over 300 PAs in spite of competition at short from Gonzalez, Lake and Mota. It's true that Samson hasn't hit much in two seasons in double A.
Re: Castro's Quest
It had to do with this...
The Idaho Statesman - Dec 06 11:22 PM
Jordan Latham, a pitcher during the Boise Hawks 2007 season, was arrested early Thursday morning for DUI and leaving the scene of an accident after the car he was driving hit a bump and launched into the front porch of a house at 22nd Avenue and Blaine Street, Boise police said.
Re: Castro's Quest
That must have been quite a bump... hope it wasn't a person.

VA PHIL: Cubs 2006 6th round pick RHRP (ex-3B) Josh Lansford (Carney Lansford's son) is still active in the OAK organization.
BTW, Josh Lansford's brother Jared is also a pitcher in the OAK organization.
Re: Castro's Quest
A couple of items of note regarding the Cubs 2006 draft...
The 2006 draft was notable for the Cubs not having any picks in rounds 2-4, and then giving significant "over-slot" bonuses to a number of draft picks, including 5th round pick RHP Jeff Samardzija and 11th round pick RHP Chris Huseby (both eventually got "1st round money"), 14th round pick OF Drew Rundle (who got "2nd round" money"), 22nd round pick 3B Jovan Rosa and 34th round pick INF Nate Samson (both got "5th round money"), and 20th round pick RHP Kevin Kreier and 29th round pick RHP Jordan Latham (both got "6th round money").
Jordan Latham and Marcus Hatley were two of the last so-called "Draft & Follow" draft picks to sign with the Cubs. (3B Jovan Rosa and RHP Cedric Redmond were the other two).
The "Draft & Follow" rule allowed an MLB club to draft a player and then retain the rights to that player until a week before the next year's draft, as long as the player was eligible for selection in the next draft. So it applied mainly to JC players. ("Draft & Follow" was abolished starting with the 2007 draft). Now clubs retain the rights only to college seniors with no eligibility left until a week prior the next year's draft. (TCU RHP Steven Maxwell is the only unsigned 2011 draft pick the Cubs can still sign up until a week before the 2012 draft).
Latham threw in the mid-90's at Fitch Park in the days following the 2006 draft, but opted to return to the College of Southern Idaho for the 2006-07 school year when the Cubs didn't meet his bonus demands (and he was set to transfer to Arizona State if he hadn't signed in 2007). But the Cubs did eventually relent, and gave Latham 6th round money ($100K) to sign just prior to the deadline in May 2007.
Hatley was a JC outfielder (Palomar JC) with a power-arm (and zero secondary stuff) the Cubs converted to a RHP after he signed in May 2007, and then he had TJS in 2009, so it has taken him a while to develop.
Re: Castro's Quest
Az. Phil, are you seen the Instructional roster yet?
Re: Castro's Quest
soriano still sucks at LF. neat.
Re: Castro's Quest
Too bad we didn't need them this season.
Re: Castro's Quest
That reQuade quote is priceless... it's like someone else is controlling the playing time.
Re: Castro's Quest
Just to make it clear regarding Cubs AZ Instructional League team, players report to Fitch Park this Thursday (9/15), and the first league game (for the Cubs) is A WEEK FROM Friday (9/23).
The Cubs are scheduled to play 20 AZIL games (10 home & 10 road), everyday Monday-Saturday (no activity on Sundays).
MIL & CIN first games are this Friday 9/16 and they play each other four times before there are any other AZIL games involving other teams scheduled. Then CLE & SD play their first games next Tuesday 9/20, OAK, LAA, and AZ play their first games on Thursday 9/22, SF, TEX, and CUBS play their first games on Friday 9/23, COL, LAD, and CHW play their first games on Saturday 9/24, and KC and SEA play their first games on Monday 9/26.
MIL last game is on Friday 10/7, SEA & SD last games are on Saturday 10/8, LAD & CLE last games are on Wednesday 10/12, CHW, TEX & AZ last games are on Friday 10/14, CUBS, LAA, SF, COL, and OAK last games are on Saturday 10/15, and CIN & KC last games are on Tuesday 10/18.
The Mariners play the fewest number of AZIL games (10), while the Reds play the most AZIL games (26).
Re: Castro's Quest
Since we all seem to be okay on your overall player reporting, can I just make a suggestion that you don't leave out the attendance figures by mistake. I think you did that once last session. It was a huge gaffe but I let it go since there is no micropayment requirement on this site yet.
Re: Castro's Quest
YEah, that really pissed me off too.... :)
Re: Castro's Quest
What happened is, the Cubs asked me not to report the attendance for that game, because it was embarrassingly low.
Re: Castro's Quest
If Ryno did QBall, would we bash him?
Re: Castro's Quest
I doubt we would as much. I also doubt that he'd require it as much.
Rumor is (and I think the rumor is perpetuated by Ryno himself) that he has read some of the "sabermatic books".
One quick check I did on how that was working out with him... the guy who closed last night's game, isn't always used at the closer, and has pitched as many as three innings in a relief outing. In fact, 11 guys got 48 saves for the Iron Pigs this year, seven of them three or more. Those same 11 guys combined for 41 holds. Of the top three guys, the highest percentage of games they finished was 64%. Marmol, for comparison has finished 83% of his games.
For the uninitiated, one of the tenets of sabermatically managing is to use your best reliever in the most important situation, regardless of inning.
Re: Castro's Quest
you'll find that your relief observation scales to almost every AAA/minor team and it rarely has much to do with situational closing or pressure situation relief appearances.
btw, you realize he managed a AAA team of starter bats that were almost all 26-32+ years old and an average age of about 28? not that it's a bad thing, you play with what you got...but he's run a vet-heavy-playing-time team this year.
Re: Castro's Quest
Have you also noticed how crappy a lot of those vets are?
When your best player is Brandon Moss....bleccchhh.
How'd they win?
Re: Castro's Quest
yeah, pretty much the pitching. weak bats all around except for columbus and durham in the IL.
it's still weird seeing durham out, but they did lose desmond to the majors. columbus took them out.
-edit- columbus lost some players to the bigs, too...oh well...woo playoffs.
Re: Castro's Quest
jeebus, how did they win?
The brilliance of Ryne Sandberg?
Re: Castro's Quest
they would have won 20 more if they hired j.zuleta to rub the bats down with fruit.
Re: Castro's Quest
Bwahahaahaa!! "Hats...for bats...keep bats warm.."
Keith Law Goes to the Movies
Moneyball, the movie, is an absolute mess of a film, the type of muddled end product you'd expect from a project that took several years and went through multiple writers and directors. Even good performances by a cast of big names and some clever makeup work couldn't save this movie, and if I hadn't been planning to review it, I would have walked out.
Re: Castro's Quest

Re: Castro's Quest
either way k.law lays out pretty much every fear i had for the film...and more...as a fan who knows how baseball works rather than coming at it as a casual film fan.
i've gone from "maybe" based on earlier reviews to "pass."
Re: Castro's Quest
"I wasn't as concerned with the script having Beane trade Carlos Pena to Detroit for a reliever and some money (as opposed to the actual three-team, seven-player deal including Jeff Weaver and Jeremy Bonderman) as I was with seeing Pena, an intelligent, gregarious person, depicted as a sullen Latino player."

Re: Castro's Quest
A little known fact about Moneyball is that a completely different film (Hendry!) was orginally planned, but the actor signed to play the lead died before the picture could be completed.
Re: Castro's Quest
worst heart attack death acting ever in Norma Rae...great film, though.
Re: Castro's Quest
Re: Castro's Quest
Tell me if this bit rings true to anyone:
Howe is nothing but a holier than thou obstacle for Beane whose entire motivation for his stubbornness is his desire for a contract extension - a hopelessly tired plot device that makes for a one-dimensional character.

AZ Phil, has Nathan showed up in Mesa yet? Thanks.
Eickhoff looks like a good young pitcher. Lets steal him!
Manny Rondon faced 13 batters ... and got 10 to K. Not a bad day's work.
With several other Cubs hitters bailing out on curves today I think overall it wasn't being seen well. It for sure looked silly but a good breaking pitch coming at you and then breaking down isn't the easiest thing to see and has made many hitters look silly. Also Soler should have more walks this year but for quite a few called strikes that were actual balls and even the called strike he bailed on was borderline.
it's not like we're talking about a guy who's never had issues with pitch selection and seeing the ball over here. we're talking about a guy who has some rather legendary swing-and-misses at breaking stuff who's been exploited low. going forward it's worth paying attention to seeing if he can be exploited inside, too. he seriously bailed out of the box on a called strike. sure it was a good curve, but he obviously didn't see that well at all.
It would seem like he is figuring it out now and it's really coming together. Really happy for him. Joe was really protecting him from the 3rd time through the order, but as you allude to, he is earning trust to go deeper.
Wondering if has potential to become a #3 pitcher? His current stats certainly support it.
That doesn't count b/c CRUNCH didn't see it on his 60" HDTV 5 times in replay.
I have seen many players "bail out" when the ball looked like it was gonna hit them.
Especially with the advent of the splitter and pitchers that can really get the ball to dance. Marmol, Sutter, Pedro Martinez, Curt Schilling, Derek Lowe, Smoltz, Arrietta...
These guys have made the best bail out only for the ball to come over the plate and be called a strike.
No shame in that. The same way players whiff hard enough to cause them to drill a hole in the ground from spinning.
a 60" TV with slow-motion replay and multiple looks on that replay helps...a lot...
it's one thing to shy away like he did the 2nd time, it's another to bail out of the box on a called strike. that happened in the 1st one he pulled away from. he misjudged that one by a foot or so...
Good Hendricks sure is fun to watch. He was hitting all his corners today and the Phillies couldn't do anything with his changeup.
Bryant and I believe Zobrist both did that too.
Soler BB acumen and plate awareness is excellent. Not unusual for even the best players to react as if they were about to hit them, "even though they weren't that close" from your vantage point sitting on your deck, or wherever.
soler vs inside breaking balls is scary.
he's had 2 inside curve balls today where he reacted as if they were about to hit him even though they weren't that close...one he bailed out of the box on, it was a called strike.
j.urias optioned back to AAA...guess we wont be seeing him in the LAD series.
so is him actually getting 2 hits in a game (2 doubles!)...first time he's even been on base 2 times in a game since 9 games ago on his 3/4, 1bb day.
im ready for him to at least look like a 2-slot hitter since he's gonna be slotted there no matter what he does.
That Heyward move to avoid Bryant's ball hit at him was a thing of beauty too.
9 pitches in and this game already rules.
HR, double...bryant's turn (who came out to a Kris Kross song for some horrible, horrible reason).
...2 run inning...zoobrest hitting streak at 14.

US tourists survive ship sinking near St. Lucia
They heard a stream nearby but decided to wait until daylight to determine whether the water was safe to drink.
As the sun came up, they began to hike through thick brush, picking up bitter mangoes along the way and stopping to eat green bananas.
"It was probably the best and worst banana I've ever had," Dan Suski recalled.
Some three hours later, they spotted a young farm worker walking with his white dog. He fed them crackers, gave them water and waited until police arrived, the Suskis said.
"We asked if he knew anything about the captain and mate," Kate Suski said. "He said he had seen the news the night before and they hadn't been found at that time. I think we felt a sense of tragedy that we weren't prepared for."
The Suskis were hospitalized and received IV fluids, with doctors concerned they couldn't draw blood from Kate Suski's arm because she was so dehydrated. They also learned that the captain and mate were rescued after spending nearly 23 hours in the water, noting that their relatives called and took care of them after the ordeal.
St. Lucia's tourism minister called it a miracle, and the island's maritime affairs unit is investigating exactly what caused the ship to sink. Marine Police Sgt. Finley Leonce said they have already interviewed the captain, and that police did not suspect foul play or any criminal activity in the sinking of the ship.
A man who answered the phone Thursday at the "Reel Irie" company declined to comment except to say that he's grateful everyone is safe. He said both the captain and first mate were standing next to him but that they weren't ready to talk about the incident.
The brother and sister said they don't blame anyone for the shipwreck.
"We are so grateful to be alive right now," Kate Suski said. "Nothing can sort of puncture that bubble."
Upon returning to their hotel in St. Lucia earlier this week, the Suskis were upgraded to a suite as they recover from cuts on their feet, severe tendonitis in their ankles from swimming and abrasions from the lifejackets.
"It's really been amazing," Dan Suski said. "It's a moving experience for me."
On Saturday, they plan to fly back to the U.S. to meet their father in Miami.
Once a night owl, Kate Suski no longer minds getting up early for flights, or for any other reason.
"Since this ordeal, I've been waking up at dawn every morning," she said. "I've never looked forward to the sunrise so much in my life."

Thanks a lot for the help with the roof.
Now I am working on a barn oWo
Thanks a lot for the help with the roof.
Really cool!
Wojoy, great work, friend!
If the shadow of the houses is falling to the right, then the roof should be lighter coloured on the *left* side of the building. It's a simple mistake but a lot of people make it.
Ah right...mhmm I'm not sure if they have different coloured sides to the roofs though. You're right though!
I might just use this. What's with the glass on the roof?
Cool, they are windows to look at the beautifull sky in the project the houses were official created for!
But a window placed like that, isn't that dangerous in the winter (too much snow can break the window) and too hot in the summer (there is no way that gravity can make shades work there). lol
Yeah, but it looks cool
Nice Nice!
Oh nice, i like *o*

- Admissions Questions
- General Program Questions
- Curriculum & Enrollment Questions
- Financial Questions
What do I need to submit to apply?
Please visit this link for a list of complete admission requirements and instructions:
Admissions Information
What is the direct link to the online USM Application to Graduate Study?
The link to the application can be found here:
What is the application deadline?
The deadline is April 1, 2016. This means the application and all supporting materials must meet this deadline.
Do I have to submit all the application materials at once, or can I submit them separately?
You can submit the materials separately, but it is up to you to make sure that everything is submitted by the application deadline of Friday, April 1, 2016.
If you submit items separately, please be sure that your name is clearly marked on your items.
To what address do I mail the materials?
All application materials must be submitted to:
Application Processing Center
University of Maine System
P.O. Box 412
Bangor, ME 04402-0412
Electronic transcripts and other application materials can be emailed to: email@example.com
Do I have to submit transcripts from institutions that I did not graduate from?
Yes, you must submit official transcripts from all colleges or universities attended, excluding the seven campuses of the University of Maine system. A transcript is official when it comes directly from the institution. If an applicant is submitting an official transcript, it must be in a sealed envelope from the institution indicating that it is an official document. If the envelope has been opened prior to arriving at the Office of Admissions, it is no longer considered an official transcript.
Any degree awarding transcript not from USM that shows transfer credit, will require you to submit an official transcript from the institution where the transfer credit was initially received.
Do I need to submit my transcripts if I attended a University of Maine System school?
No, Admissions will pull your transcripts from within the UMS campuses if after 1985.
Are there testing requirements?
The GRE is required. Applicants must have earned a score of either 1,000 points or above (for tests taken before 9/1/2011) or 300 or above (for tests taken on or after 9/1/2011) on the combined Verbal and Quantitative subtests of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE).
If an applicant is an international student whose first language is not English, the following testing is required: Submit official TOEFL scores of 550 or higher on the paper-based test, 79 or higher on the Internet-based test, or 213 or higher on the computer-based test, or official IELTS scores of 6.5 or higher. International students who have received their undergraduate or graduate degree from an English-speaking institution may apply for a waiver of this requirement.
I am an international student. Are there any other items I need to submit?
International students should check this website for additional instructions:
What are the essay questions?
The essay questions are as follows:
1. Describe your professional background and goals. How does the Ph.D. in Public Policy: Concentration in Educational Leadership and Policy fit with these and what makes you a good candidate for this program? (500 words)
2. Identify an education policy and describe it. What research evidence is there related to the policy's impact, and how might you design further research to investigate the policy's impact? (750 words)
If you submit your essays separate from your online application, please be sure that your name is clearly stated on the document.
Please clearly state the essay question that you are answering.
The online application says that I am required to submit three letters of reference, but I only need two. Help!?
Only two letters of recommendation are required; however, the online application has space for three letters of recommendation. The program will review three letters of recommendation if you provide three. If you only wish to submit the required two letters of recommendation, you will need to input some information for the third recommender. I suggest you use "Not Applicable" for the name and email@example.com (a fake email address) for an email address in order to proceed with the online application.
How are letters of reference submitted?
Recommendations are easily submitted using the online application form. You will need to provide the name and email address for each of your recommenders during the application process. Once you submit your application, an email will be automatically generated to your recommenders directing them to fill out the electronic letter of recommendation.
References should be from individuals who are qualified, through direct experience with your academic or professional work. One of these individuals should be your supervisor. Your supervisor and the other person writing a letter of reference on your behalf should comment on your qualities and experience as an educational leader and/or your ability to undertake doctoral level graduate study.
Who else can I use as a reference, if I currently don't have a supervisor?
If you currently don't have a supervisor, then we suggest that you use a reference from a previous supervisor or an academic advisor from your previous master's degree program.
Will I be able to transfer in prior coursework?
No. Those admitted will be expected to take all courses with the cohort..
What happens after I complete my application? Will there be an interview? How will I know if I am accepted?
Once your application is complete, it will be delivered to the program and prepared for the committee's review. The committee will begin the review process after the April 1 deadline.
Selected applicants will be invited for an interview. The program will contact these applicants to schedule an interview.
All applicants will be notified of their status in writing by Graduate Admissions when the final selections have been made. We expect to notify candidates by June 30, 2016.
I was recently accepted into a Certificate of Advanced Study (CAS) program, but I want to transfer into the Ph.D. program. What do I do?
You cannot transfer into the Ph.D. program. You will need to apply to the Ph.D. program. Your acceptance into a CAS program at USM does not mean that you will be automatically accepted into the Ph.D. program.
You will need to submit a new online application. You cannot use the "Re-application" form found on the Office of Admissions website.
You should contact the Office of Admissions to see if they still have your transcripts on file. If they do, then you do not have to resubmit your transcripts.
How do I contact Admissions?
Admissions can be reached at 207-780-4386 or firstname.lastname@example.com
Would this Ph.D. be a good fit for me?
The Ph.D. in Public Policy with a concentration in educational leadership and policy is designed for working professionals with experience and interest in educational leadership who wish to attain a doctorate.
Is there going to be a focus on K-12 educators or will higher education also be included?
We are looking for a diverse cross-section of applicants across the spectrum of K-12 and higher education.
Will this program lead to teaching/principal/superintendent certification?
The Ph.D. program will not give you the course work that you need to become certified as a teacher, principal, superintendent or any other school administrator in the state of Maine.
What is a "cohort-based program model"?
Only a small group of candidates will be selected to begin the program this fall. Those students will progress through the program and take all courses together over the next three years and will aim to complete the program at the same time.
Who will be on the dissertation committees? Will outside professionals be invited to participate?
The dissertation committees will consist of a combination of University of Southern Maine faculty members affiliated with the School of Education and the Muskie School of Public Service. Outside professionals will be considered as appropriate.
Curriculum & Enrollment Questions
What is the program of study?
See the link "About the concentration" for the three-year schedule of courses.
How/when will the courses be offered?
Students will take two courses each semester for a total of four courses during the school year (September - May) and two courses during the summer for a total of 18 credits per year. The final course schedule will be developed after students have been admitted, so the program can be best designed to fit the students' needs. However, students can expect to have class one evening per week and approximately one Saturday per month throughout the academic year. During the summer, courses will be compressed with one or two weeks of intensive study.
See the link "About the concentration" for the three-year schedule of courses.
What is the mode of delivery for courses?
This is a face-to-face program. There are no online courses in the program. At their own discretion, individual instructors may include online components, including the option to attend class a distance.
Who will be teaching the courses?
The courses will be taught by a combination of University of Southern Maine faculty members affiliated with the School of Education and the Muskie School of Public Service.
Can I take a course before applying to the program?
Sadly, no. You need to be accepted into the program in order to enroll in a course.
Where can I find the most up-to-date tuition rates and fees information?
Student Financial Services lists the current tuition and fees on their website.
What is the estimated cost of one course in the program?
Currently, the cost of tuition is $380.00 per credit hour for in-state graduate level courses. Each course is typically 3 graduate credits. Therefore, the cost of tuition for one course is approximately $1,140.00. Additional fees will apply, including transportation and unified fees. Please note that tuition has remained the same for 2015-2016, but may increase in later years.
What is the estimated total cost of the program?
The program will consist of 45 graduate credit hours. The rough estimate of the total tuition cost for the program is around $17,000.00 for in-state students. Typically, tuition costs are adjusted every year. Additional fees will apply, including transportation and unified fees.
Will there be assistantships and/or scholarships available?
Currently, there are no scholarship funds or assistantships specifically designated for this Ph.D. program concentration;.
Will I be able to finance my education with student loans?
Graduate students commonly obtain unsubsidized loans to assist with their expenses. Half-time students (those taking at least six graduate credit hours per semester) are usually eligible for loans to cover tuition, books, and assist with living expenses.
Who do I contact for more information about the program?
Kimberly Warren, Director of Academic Administration
School of Education and Human Development
College of Management and Human Service

What Players Want to see in the Final 10
In today's paper, I wrote about 10 things to watch in the Thunder's final 10 games. Here is what various players had to say when asked a few of the things they're looking to see down the stretch. KEVIN DURANT"I like the way we're moving the ball. I like the way we're helping each other out on defense and talking. So if we can keep that up, no matter what we'll be fine. Right now, I know we love to win basketball games but it's about building our habits. It's 10 games left and we want to just continue on building playing sound, solid defense, moving the ball on offense and going out there and wrecking havoc; getting steals, getting blocked shots and trying to get some easy points. RUSSELL WESTBROOK "Just playing consistent. Just continue playing the way we've been doing defensively and just moving forward toward the playoffs." THABO SEFOLOSHA "Just keep playing tough and building the trust defensively. I think that's all we can do. Keep communicating and the rest will take care of itself." NICK COLLISON "I think for us always it's execution on the offensive end and defensively. And I'd like to see our focus and our energy be high and really be into each game, each possession. I think that's how we get better as a team. We want to be playing our best basketball at the end of the year so that's what we'll be shooting for." KENDRICK PERKINS "Our goal is a team can't score no more than 24 points a quarter. That's one of our goals. That's our main goal." DEREK FISHER "I think just a continuation of the idea that our identity has to be set in stone. Regardless of who we're playing against, what night of the week it is, where it is, we're going to play hard, we're going to play tough, we're going to defend and then we'll allow what happens as we flow into offense to happen. We don't have to have a prescription for certain guys getting a certain amount of shots. If we just play the game the right way, move the basketball, share the ball, offensively things will work out. We got two studs obviously that are the best in the league. They'll always get the most touches. But I think our identity has to be set in stone. We're going to defend. We're going to lock people down. Offensively, we're going to move the basketball, we're going to share the ball, we're going to play together. And we're just going to overwhelm teams with playing a consistent brand of basketball. Limiting our volatility so to speak. We want to become that team that when you show up to watch us play you know what you're going to see, and I think we can continue to work toward that over the next few weeks." -DM-

Sources of Pride and Strength
The circumstances and conditions that have a determining influence upon a man's life and character often antedate, by many years, his own conscious existence….
When he first becomes conscious of himself and his environment, he is already caught
in a web of external relations, conditions and circumstances from which he seldom
afterward escapes.
—George Kennan, Autobiography
For a time early in the nineteenth century the Harriman family seemed destined to an inglorious end in a watery grave. Three of William Harriman's sons met with death at sea in very different ways. The eldest, William, died in a naval clash between English and French ships. Alphonso drowned in the waters off the Battery after the family moved to New York, and Edward simply vanished. His father had made him master of cargo on one of the vessels he fitted out for the West Indies, but the ship never reached port and was never heard from again. Three other sons had died in childhood, leaving only one to carry on the family name. Orlando did not need his mother's fervent pleas to spurn adventure at sea in favor of joining his father in business. Upon that frail reed rose the Harriman dynasty. 1
From the first it was shrouded in mystery. No one knows what induced William to leave his comfortable life as a stationer in London. He was said to be in sympathy with the colonial cause, yet he did not sail for America until April 1795, long after the issues of war and peace had been decided. He was not a poor man; some of his neighbors in New Haven, where he first resided, liked to refer to him as "the rich Englishman." Nor was it a move to be lightly considered. William brought with him the baggage of a full life: a wife, six children, and his wife's sister, Rosamond Holmes. Whatever pushed or pulled him across the sea had to be of more than ordinary force.
Once settled in New Haven, William tried his luck at the West Indies trade until the treacherous currents of commerce swallowed most of the money he had brought from England. After a few years he took his family to New York City, where he gradually shifted from shipping to a general commission business. There William prospered in a modest way, and young Orlando did well

You'll Like These 5 Social Network Clips
By Josh Tyler 2010-09-23 16:30:44 comments
By now youve probably figured out that The Social Network is a must see, and maybe even one of the years best films. Let me confirm that, having just seen it, yeah it is. Expect a whole host of Oscar nominations for it this fall, and in particular Im rooting for Justin Timberlake to get a nod. Youll see a little of his performance as Napster founder Sean Parker, in the five new Social Network clips below.

Mark Zuckerberg, played by Jesse Eiseneberg, is in the midst of building his first website success. Its called FaceMash.com and when finished itll let college kids rank girls based on who is hotter. To make it happen though, he needs help from his friend Eduardo, played here by Andrew Garfield.
Here Zuckerberg, already heavy into coding what would eventually become TheFacebook.com, is struck by a bolt of inspiration. The next time you check out someones relationship status, youll know where that idea came from:
Meet the Winklevoss twins, old money Harvard frat boys who would later claim that Zuckerberg stole The Facebook idea from them.
Here Mark Zuckerberg, in the midst of the Winklevoss twins lawsuit, explains why he thinks theyre suing him. Maybe hes right.
This is our first introduction to Sean Parker, played by Justin Timberlake, in the film. This clip also contains what is perhaps, the greatest ass on film in the year 2010. Theres even more of it, both the Stanford girl butt cheeks and Sean Parker, in The Social Network.
The Social Network arrives in theaters October 1st. Check out our review right here and expect a lot more in-depth analysis of what is without a doubt one of the years best films, from us, in the weeks to come.

|Not With My Kid You Don't
|The End of Socialized Medicine?
by Christopher Chantrill
October 24, 2007 at 4:06 pm
LAST WEEK President Bush successfully stopped the expansion of S-CHIP into the liberal slacker classes.
After last week the creative children of well-to-do parents who would rather buy fancy cars than pay for health insurance will have to pause for a moment.
For this important ethical and moral victory the president should be celebrated forever as one of our greatest presidents.
Meanwhile the Democrats showed once again that they cared about the children.
Never mind that its all just a huge bluff.
Government is there to protect us from enemies foreign and domestic. It doesnt do that job very well, but its better than the alternative.
Everything else is fluff., and very expensive fluff at that. The newly legislated fluff always looks wonderful. But after a while it always turns into rotting bureaucratic sludge.
Fluff? Health care and education are fluff? Lets take a look at the great heads of government spending for FY 2008 on usgovernmentspending.com. The numbers are all budgeted and estimated.
United States Federal, State, and Local Government Spending
Fiscal Year 2008
Amounts in billions of dollars
Pensions: $910.0
Health Care: $916.5
Education: $836.7
Defense: $692.0
Welfare: $436.4
We are talking about all levels of government, of course.
Heres the dirty little secret that explains why its mostly fluff. All that money we spend on health care and educationwe dont know if it is doing any good.
You start to get the picture from Rising Life Expectancy by James C. Riley. There are six areas for reducing mortality: public health, medicine, wealth and income, nutrition, behavior, and education, he writes. But researchers find it very difficult to separate out the significance of each area. One thing is certain; the importance of medicine has been greatly over-hyped. Needless to say, more research is needed.
Robin Hanson of CATO confirms Rileys finding. He writes that we dont have a clue about the effectiveness of health care. Although health experts know this they are nervous about telling us. Anyway we just dont believe them.
Non-health-policy experts are probably shocked to hear my claims. Most students in my eight years of teaching health economics have simply not believed me, even after a semester of reviewing the evidence.
Heres an example of what Hanson is talking about. RAND health insurance study in 1978-82 assigned two thousand families to various health insurance plans from free to full price. The result was inconclusive; the health of some poor families even got worse after they got free health insurance.
What is going on?
The key to understanding health-care, Hanson suggests, comes after the hyphen. It is all about care, not health.
[H]umans long ago evolved a tendency to use medicine to show that we care, rather than just to get healthy.
That was the point that the Democrats were trying to make over the S-CHIP expansion. It wasnt the money. They just wanted to show that they cared.
This is the brilliant idea that supports the welfare state. The welfare state doesnt actually do anything; it just shows that we care.
Look at the top three heads of government spending above. If the government didnt have its pension programs then people would just knuckle down and save some more. Families that couldnt save enough would coalesce into multigenerational compounds.
If the government didnt have its health programs then people would be a lot more careful about their health and their medical spending, and the overall life-expectancy in the United States probably wouldnt change.
If the government didnt have its education programs then people would spend their own money on education. Most parents can probably afford the three-to-four years of the schooling it takes to achieve basic literacy and numeracy. They would quickly that most children shouldnt go to high school. Instead they should get jobs!
But how would we show that we care?
Arthur Brooks has shown in Who Really Cares that government charity approximately displaces private charity one-for-one. It costs more, of course, because with government charity you have to pay for all the bureaucracy and the inefficiency, not to mention the gigantic information technology systems to keep track of all those health-and-welfare programs.
Heres an idea for young up-and-coming conservative thinkers. The current welfare state is unjust to women. It crowds out and marginalizes their natural charitable instincts and prevents them from being all they can be and demonstrating that we care.
In the welfare state only politicians and activists get to show that they care.
Think about it. The glorious feminist revolution has pitched women out of their local face-to-face neighborhood communities. It has converted them from caring friends and neighbors into helping professionals. In the old days they used to converse and network to help each other and show that they cared. Now they are stuck in gigantic social-service bureaucracies where their natural caring instincts and emotions are rigidly controlled by a huge rule-book.
How can anyone endure for a moment longer this monstrously unjust and unnatural system?

[W]hen I asked a liberal longtime editor I know with a mainstream [publishing] house for a candid, shorthand version of the assumptions she and her colleagues make about conservatives, she didn't hesitate. Racist, sexist, homophobic, anti-choice fascists, she offered, smiling but meaning it.
Harry Stein, I Can't Believe I'm Sitting Next to a Republican
Families helped each other putting up homes and barns. Together, they built churches, schools, and common civic buildings. They collaborated to build roads and bridges. They took pride in being free persons, independent, and self-reliant; but the texture of their lives was cooperative and fraternal.
Michael Novak, The Spirit of Democratic Capitalism
[To make] of each individual member of the army a soldier who, in character, capability, and knowledge, is self-reliant, self-confident, dedicated, and joyful in taking responsibility [verantwortungsfreudig] as a man and a soldier. — Gen. Hans von Seeckt
MacGregor Knox, Williamson Murray, ed., The dynamics of military revolution, 1300-2050
For [the left] there is only the state and the individual, nothing in between. No family to rely on, no friend to depend on, no community to call on. No neighbourhood to grow in, no faith to share in, no charities to work in. No-one but the Minister, nowhere but Whitehall, no such thing as society - just them, and their laws, and their rules, and their arrogance.
David Cameron, Conference Speech 2008
Imagining that all order is the result of design, socialists
conclude that order must be improvable by better design of some superior mind.
F.A. Hayek, The Fatal Conceit
[Every] sacrifice is an act of impurity that pays for a prior act of greater impurity... without its participants having to suffer the full consequences incurred by its predecessor. The punishment is commuted in a process that strangely combines and finesses the deep contradiction between justice and mercy.
Frederick Turner, Beauty: The Value of Values
[The Axial Age] highlights the conception of a responsible self... [that] promise[s] man for the first time that he can understand the fundamental structure of reality and through salvation participate actively in it.
Robert N Bellah, "Religious Evolution", American Sociological Review, Vol. 29, No. 3.
But the only religions that have survived are those which support property and the family.
Thus the outlook for communism, which is both anti-property and anti-family, (and also anti-religion), is not promising.
F.A. Hayek, The Fatal Conceit
[T]he way to achieve a system of determining admission to the public schools on a nonracial basis,
Brown II, 349 U. S., at 300–301, is to stop assigning students on a racial basis. The way to stop
discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the basis of race.
Roberts, C.J., Parents Involved in Community Schools vs. Seattle School District
A writer who says that there are no truths, or that all truth is merely relative, is asking you not to believe him. So dont.
Roger Scruton, Modern Philosophy
Paul Dirac: When I was talking with Lemaître about [the expanding universe] and feeling stimulated
by the grandeur of the picture that he has given us, I told him that
I thought cosmology was the branch of science that lies closest to religion.
However [Georges] Lemaître [Catholic priest, physicist, and
inventor of the Big Bang Theory] did not agree with me. After thinking it over he
suggested psychology as lying closest to religion.
John Farrell, The Creation Myth
Within Pentecostalism the injurious hierarchies of the wider world are abrogated and replaced by a single hierarchy of faith, grace, and the empowerments of the spirit... where groups gather on rafts to take them through the turbulence of the great journey from extensive rural networks to the mega-city and the nuclear family...

text: I have recently bought a new Pinnacle PCTV 110i TV tuner card that has come with a Dish TV connection which is setup via a set top box. I also got 2 cds with which is Pinnacle PCTV MediaCenter version 4.21 EU/AS/US/Windows XP 06/06 and Pinnacle Studio QuickStart Version 10 EE/SK/AS REV 10.5.2 Windows XP. Since I am using Windows Vista on my computer I first installed the softwares from the CD that I have got and then upgraded the same by downloading and installing it from the manufacturer's website. But when I tried to install it then it gave me an error message that PCMLoader.exe is not loading. Now I can see the setup menu but I cannot scan the channels and see them. Also when ever I start my computer then I get another message saying that DeviceInstall.exe from Unidentified Publisher wants access to your computer - Allow / Cancel. Can anyone tell me how do i solve this issue?

|Patent application number
|Photovoltaic solar module comprising bifacial solar cells - A photovoltaic solar cell module comprises a plurality of bifacial solar cells and electrical conductors. Each bifacial solar cell comprises a plurality of bus-bar contacts. A phosphorous silicon glass layer is formed on one side of the bifacial cell by phosphorous diffusion, and a boron silicon glass layer is formed on the other side of the bifacial cell by boron diffusion. The phosphorous diffusion and the boron diffusion are conducted by a face-to-face diffusion method. The combination of the two gettering methods substantially increases the minority carrier life time of the bifacial solar cell.

Verizon claims the original cost of the phone is $500 and some change. Not hardly. If you do not have the many rebates that we did, you will end up spending $200 on the phone, but that's not terrible for the newest technology. We spent the $99 because of our long term association with Verizon (gave us "special selection" rebate, in addition to the renewal rebates).
I would spend $200 on it though, and be happy to do so! (Of course, I can say that because I didn't have to, eh)?
