« Workshop Discussion Threads
Overarching thoughts and recommendations
Not only did I come away with a new class activity of my own, but a few others that I hope to adapt to my classes.
To me, an overarching theme was trying to engage students into scientific thinking without intimidating them. So many of us teach non-majors, and it's great to be talking with you about how to get them comfortable with the scientific method without browbeating them. Climate change is a hugely teachable topic, everyone gets interested quickly, and using that to get them involved in doing science is key.

Keep in touch, everyone--

...and speaking of the 'real lives' piece, I'm wondering if maybe it'd be possible to spread this week-long online workshop over two weeks. I know it'd be a bear for Karin and Cathy and Sean to have to attend to our needs for an additional week, but it was something of a grind to get my workshop work accomplished in the midst of my ongoing teaching and committee responsibilities. One thing about attending a 'face-to-face' conference is that you can put these other responsibilities aside and be immersed; with us, the other stuff didn't go away. I still haven't had a chance to see all the presentations, so I hope they stay posted for another week so I can catch up.
Finally -- I feel privileged as a science instructor to be participating in the transition from an era of acute specialization and consequent isolation to an era of multi-discipline integration and utilization. As a 'hard rock' geologist, I've been enriched by the contributions of all you meteorologists, paleoclimatologists, oceanographers, fluid dynamicists -- thanks to you all! Ultimately all of our students stand to gain from our collective efforts toward the integration of our disciplines.

A four-year All-American, the Spring, Texas, native was voted the 2009 Southeastern Conference Diver of the Year
Alabama's new look starts at the top, with first-year head coach Dennis Pursley and extends through a staff that includes five new assistant coaches to go with two returners from a year ago
A member of the 2011 USA World Championship and World University Games teams, Fleshner tallied 465.50 points off the 1-meter to win his first national championship
Greenwell has been named Southeastern Conference Diving Coach of the Year a league-record six times and has coached Tide divers to eight SEC Diver of the Year honors
Greenwell, who started with the Crimson Tide in the fall of 1987, has been named Southeastern Conference Diving Coach of the Year a league-record six times and has coached Tide divers to eight SEC Diver of the Year honors.
"Pat is one of the nation's top diving coaches," Alabama head coach Dennis Pursley said. "He has consistently had Alabama divers vying for conference and national championships and earning All-America honors. His commitment to excellence has been reflected in the consistently outstanding achievements of his divers throughout the years."
In 2014, Paige McCleary - the 2011 SEC Freshman Diver of the Year after turning in the top rookie finish on both the 1-meter and 3-meter boards as well as the platform at the SEC Championships - closed out her career as an honorable mention All-American off the 1-meter board.
Aaron Fleshner, who won his third SEC title under Greenwell's tutelage in 2010, made a pair of trips to China in the summer of 2011 as part of the United States' national team. Flesher first traveled to Shanghai for the FINA World Championships and later to Shenzia for the World University Games. Fleshner, who currently works and trains in Tuscaloosa, is a three-time U.S. national 1-meter champion.
In 2009, Greenwell was named SEC Women's Diving Coach of the Year and saw Fleshner earn SEC Male Diver of the Year honors while Carrie Dragland was named both the SEC Freshman and Female Diver of the Year.
Now in his 28th season with the Tide, Greenwell's athletes have won a pair of NCAA championships, with Brent Roberts winning the platform in 1998 and Lane Bassham winning the 3-meter board in 2004. They have also earned 69 All-America honors and won 21 SEC titles since 1988.
The 2004 season saw Greenwell recognized as the NCAA Championships Coach of the Meet after Bassham took first off the 3-meter and second off the 1-meter. Both she and Crystal Rasmussen earned All-America honors that season, leading Alabama to 21st place overall. Bassham was also named NCAA Diver of the Meet for her efforts.
The success of Greenwell's student-athletes isn't limited to the pool. 2011 senior Adam Booher earned an NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship as well as a place on the CoSIDA Academic All-District IV At-Large Team. In 2010 Elizabeth Hughes was named to the CoSIDA Academic All-American team.
In 2005, Stewart Smith earned an SEC Postgraduate Scholarship, one of the league's highest academic honors, while Jill DeVasher earned the same award in 1998. Mark Rourke brought the swimming and diving program its first NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship, one of the most prestigious awards offered on the national level, in 1991.
Internationally, Greenwell's divers have done very well. In addition to his double-duty in China, Fleshner competed at the 2010 USA Diving Grand Prix meet in Ft. Lauderdale and the 2014 FINA Grand Prix in Malaysia. Former Greenwell students Rafael Alvarez and Rourke both competed at multiple Olympic Games and both finaled in at least one Olympiad. Roberts was the United States Olympic team alternate on the platform in 2000 after finishing third at the Olympic Trials.
Under Greenwell's tutelage, Rourke became the first diver in conference history to win all three diving events at the SEC Championships, doing so in 1991.
Greenwell inherited the tradition rich Alabama program in the fall of 1987, after a five-year stint at Clemson University. While coaching Clemson, the Tampa, Fla., native earned his master's degree in post-secondary counseling.
He dove collegiately at the University of Pittsburgh, garnering All-America honors on the way to earning a bachelor's degree in health and physical education in 1981.
An active member of U.S. Diving as both a coach and a judge, Greenwell has served as the U.S. National Coach for competitions in China and Canada. In 1997 and 1999, he served as the U.S. judge at the World University Games.
Greenwell married the former Debbie Purifoy in May of 2003.

ZF-8842: Reflection call could be avoided
Zend_Serializer::factory() makes a call to Reflection to make a check for implemented interfaces of the adapter class.
Reflection calls are known to be PHP greedy, and this one could be avoided.
2 solutions suggested : - Create an instance of the adapter class, then use instanceof operator to check if it implements an interface - use PHP::class_implements() which avoid any object instanciation but require an in_array() search.
A fix is at svn 20343
On creating an instance it will execute code (constructor) of the unchecked class.

TUCSON, Ariz. – Ka'Deem Carey rumbled for a season-high 236 yards as part of a 300-yard team rushing effort on Saturday night as the Arizona football team battled to a 35-24 win over Utah.
The Tucson native logged a career-high 40 carries, sealing the win with a late 44-yard touchdown on his final run of the night. The Wildcats ran for an even 300 yards to mark the third time this season UA has reached the 300-yard mark on the ground. B.J. Denker ran for 51 yards and a pair of touchdowns from the quarterback position and Daniel Jenkins chipped in with 14 yards to supplement Carey's effort.
Saturday's performance marked the third time in his career that Carey topped the 200-yard mark, and he also went over 3,000 yards for his career on Saturday.
"On (Carey's) last touchdown, I was yelling at him to get down, but I'm sure he didn't hear me," Arizona head coach Rich Rodriguez said. "He's just a great football player. He's 10 pounds heavier and in great shape, and he has a certain hunger when he plays. He's one of the best I've ever coached."
With the running game opening up the field, Denker was efficient through the air against Utah. He completed 18-of-30 passes for 168 yards and a score, connecting with seven different receivers on the night. Nate Phillips led the Wildcat receiving corps with four catches for 63 yards and the touchdown, while Carey, David Richards and Samajie Grant each caught three balls.
For the night, UA finished with a 468-329 edge in total yards, including a 300-172 advantage in the running game. The Wildcats ran 88 plays, just shy of a season high, and piled up 26 first downs. Arizona was only penalized three times for 31 yards in the victory.
Jake Fischer had 12 tackles, including six solo stops, to pace an Arizona defense that forced a pair of turnovers and recorded three sacks. Sione Tuihalamaka had eight stops, including 1.5 for loss, and Scooby Wright had six on the night.
Arizona got interceptions from Marquis Flowers and Shaquille Richardson, with the former returning his for a 14-yard touchdown to help turn the tide early.
"It was a nice team win against a good, physical team," Rodriguez said. "We made a few mistakes, but it was a good effort and a very good win. Our guys were ready to play."
UA struck first on its initial possession of the game, primarily using its rushing attack to march 80 yards in eight plays for a 7-0 lead. Carey rumbled for 42 yards on the drive and Denker added 26, including the 10-yard scoring run.
After a Utah score to tie the score and an Arizona turnover on downs deep in opponent territory, Flowers intercepted Utes quarterback Travis Wilson at the Utah 14-yard line and returned the pick for his first-career touchdown to make the score 14-7 early in the second quarter. The interception was the fifth of Flowers' career and the fourth pick-six for Arizona this season.
Richardson's ninth-career interception set up Denker's second touchdown run of the game, a one-yard plunge with 5:48 left in the second quarter that pushed the Wildcats' lead to 20-7 at the break.
Arizona piled up 244 yards of total offense in the opening half, including 161 and two scores on the ground. Carey finished the half with 102 yards on 19 carries, eclipsing the 100-yard mark for the ninth-straight game before halftime. Denker was 11-of-15 for 83 yards through the air – spreading the ball around to six different receivers – and added 45 yards and two touchdowns on the ground in the first half.
Utah scored the first 14 points of the second half to take a 21-20 lead, and the scored remained that way until Denker hit Phillips for a seven-yard touchdown strike with 13:32 left in the fourth quarter. Denker ran the ball for a two-point conversion, putting Arizona back up by a score of 28-21.
A Utah field goal cut the Arizona lead to 28-24 with 7:11 left to play, but a 44-yard Carey touchdown run with 1:30 play cemented the victory for the Wildcats.
At halftime, Arizona honored Tedy Bruschi with the retirement of his jersey and the on-campus salute of his induction into the College Football Hall of Fame, which will occur in December.
The Wildcats will play the first of back-to-back road games next weekend when they venture to Colorado for a 5 p.m. MST tilt with the Buffaloes. Pac-12 Networks will have the television coverage, and Brian Jeffries, Lamont Lovett and Dana Cooper will have the call on the Arizona IMG Sports Network.For continued coverage of Arizona football, follow the team on Facebook at facebook.com/ArizonaFootball and on Twitter @ArizonaFBall.

Post subject: The Scorpio Races - for McKinley's The Blue Sword fans
I read about Maggie Stiefvater's
The Scorpio Races
at Angieville's blogspot and Angie gave the recommendation that it was the best book she had read all year at the last quarter of 2011, and also said it was for fans of Robin McKinley's
The Blue Sword
. I just finished reading
The Scorpio Races
and would definitely second Angie - as
The Blue Sword
has a DIK review here at AAR, I hope many AAR readers will enjoy this too. McKinley has another magical horse story in
which is also DIK'd here, but I have not read that one yet.
The Scorpio Races
is based on the mythological fairy horses which arise from the sea and the men who try to ride them once a year at a race where many die when the horses kill them by plunging back into the sea or just savaging them. The two main protagonists both ride to win - one for freedom and the other for family. Both have parents who were killed by the fairy horses when they were children. The romance between them is more show than tell, and from the beginning, although one expects a rivalry, Sean and Puck become fascinated by each other, and are later bound beyond their attraction to each other by their mutual love for the island they live on, their way of life, and their love of their horses. The writing is evocative, dramatic and beautifully lyrical. It's labelled YA but so would
The Blue Sword
be today, I suppose! I would recommend this one highly to all who love fantasy/mythology themed novels with a bit of romance. I would also agree with Angie of Angieville that this is Maggie Stiefvater's best book yet. The tone is different from her wolves (Shiver,etc) or fairy (Lament,etc) series, and the characterization is much more compelling here.

Well, considering I was the one who DIKed both the McKinleys, your post caught my attention. I've heard really good things about Scorpio Races, but I did try another Stiefvater book and couldn't finish it; wasn't particularly impressed. But I have Scorpio on hold at the library; I might have see if I can get another copy sooner. Thanks for the rec!

I hope you would review it here at AAR after you read it. Of Stiefvater's earlier books, I prefer
and the Wolves of Mercy Falls to the faerie books. But
The Scorpio Races
is much more atmospheric. Some people have complained that it's got a slow build-up - but I think the pacing was perfect. The story is told in first person, alternating between Sean and Puck, and one has to pay attention who the narrator is, as their voices in some parts of the tale, can sound similar. And I love the fact that the heroine is called Puck! I got my copy from the library but will get my very own copy - and yes, the kindle version is only $3.99 now.

Dang it all! ANOTHER for the TBR list!
Seriously, thank you for the rec. I fell in love with Robin McKinley 30+ years ago when I read Beauty. Then the Blue Sword absolutely blew me away. Enjoyed Chalice and adored Pegasus. Some other things she wrote did nothing for me: Deerskin, Rose Cottage. When I'm looking for a comfort read, Beauty and the Blue Sword are faves.
I enjoyed some of Stiefvater's books, particularly Shiver. So I went ahead and ordered Scorpio for my kindle. Lord knows when I'll get to it, tho.

I haven't read too many of Robin Mckinley's books, but the ones I have I've loved. I wish more were available as ebooks.

I always think fondly of Robin McKinley because her original
was the last book I read aloud to my oldest son. We both loved it and would read until way past his bedtime. My husband would call up the stairs that it was time to turn out the light, but it was so hard to put the book down.
As for her
, it is, in its own way, a horror story, even though it does have a sweet romance and happy ending. I found it powerful and compelling, but it definitely is not a children's story. My oldest son recommended it to me, but he was a lot older than he was when we read Beauty and had discovered it on his own.

I did not like Lament, and thought Shiver was fine, but wasn't interested enough to read the others in that series. However, I loved The Scorpio Races. It kept me thinking about it long after I finished it.

I am so glad you loved it too! There are so many scenes that stick in my mind. I loved the ending, which made me tear up (in a good way) - I read somewhere that it's been optioned for a movie, and I think there is a lot of scope for cinematic drama in this book. The other thing I thought was very good was how Irish the protagonists sounded - the cadence and rhythm of their speech, and I suppose the laid-back way of life. There is a hint that it is set somewhere in Ireland as there is mention that there is only the sea between them and America. And I can't believe that the kindle price has gone down to $2.99 after I bought it a few weeks ago for more!

Got it. Read it. What shall I say? Stiefvater's
Scorpio Races
was a good book that I just didn't like.
Partly, I think, it was the setting. I've never enjoyed Nora Roberts' books set in Ireland, either, and I avoid Scottish romances as I avoid bubonic plague.

Thanks to
Jean Wan AAR
for the DIK review of
The Scorpio Races
. I am glad you enjoyed it after your disappointment with Maggie Stiefvater's previous books. Although it's several months since I read this one, so many scenes are clear in my mind, and I hope more AAR readers will give this one a try. The kindle price was down to $2.99 for a while, but it's now back to its non-sale price.

I've been reading this one off and on for weeks. It's just so easy to put down. But having said that, I DO like the story and the characters and the writer's style. It's hard to explain why I can't just stick with it and am only halfway through after reading a little bit here and a little bit there between other books. Hopefully I will finish Scorpio Races eventually.

I have a question for people familiar with McKinley's books - I have read "Deerskin" (which upset me very much), and "Sunshine" which I loved. Are any of her other books sort of like "Sunshine"?

As a longtime Robin McKinley fan I have read most (but not all) of her books. I have not read Deerskin, since my sister-in-law read it first and warned me that I probably wouldn't like it.
My favorites are The Blue Sword and Beauty, which I have read and reread many times. I did enjoy Chalice but I've only read it once. It was a beautifully written book. I adored Pegasus, but was very frustrated by the cliffhanger ending. The sequel won't be out until 2014, and I was absolutely furious when I read that on her website! Not only that, it's going to be a trilogy. She is a very slow writer, but her best books are wonderful. Since you loved Sunshine, you might be interested to know that Shadow, her book in 2013, is going to be in the same world (but NOT a sequel, according to the author). She says that not all of her books are meant to have sequels.
According to what I've read, she insists that she doesn't write what she wants - she waits for the stories to tell themselves, and then she writes them down. She has no control over the stories that come to her; she has been waiting for years, for instance, for the time to come when she can return to her Damar series. So far, she has written The Hero and the Crown and The Blue Sword, along with some short stories also related to the series, and some stories featuring Luthe, the wizard who is part of the Damar world.
I can also recommend the two anthologies she wrote with her husband Peter Dickinson, Water and Fire. Also good are the two anthologies The Door in the Hedge and The Knot in the Grain, collections of original fairy tales that are quite charming. I haven't read Dragonhaven yet, but I suspect it might appeal to someone who enjoyed Sunshine.

So glad to hear I am not alone in not liking this book. I found the ending very disappointing. SPOILER. HIGHLIGHT TO READ:
People have died in these races for years, the water horses are killers who are valuable only for their speed and they are beaten by an Island pony? It negated the entire purpose of the races. If *any* horse can win, why use a killer like a water horse? If any horse can win, why come to the Island to watch a race? Why not Churchill Downs or a London track?
I liked the authors other works but this one was a complete let down.
I felt sorry for Sean. He has a lifetime of making sacrifices to save Puck from her own stupidity to look forward to.

Discover More Ideas You'll Need
Rated 3.5 out of 5 by 2 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Crombie Beautiful Basket! I am a soap maker and use a lot of baskets. World Market has the best pricing for the quality. The purple in this basket is so rich. I used the large one to make up a basket for a contest in a local soap gathering this past weekend. My "Lavender Fields" basket won "Best Packaging" which netted me a $50.00 gift of essential oils. You will not be disappointed with this basket. I can't wait to use the smaller ones. July 22, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Iyalode795 Too Small While the color of this basket is a vibrantly beautiful shade of purple, it is extremely small. Since it was deemed large, I expected it to be much bigger than it actually is. I can balance this "large" basket in the palm of my hand. It's not a big deal as it was on sale and will be used.

Though the rails were once affectionately known by kids and railroad enthusiasts as the Heber Creeper, Heber Valley Railroad is the real thing.
Started in 1899 to serve pioneer settlers, it runs on the original Denver & Rio Grande Western rail line, along U.S. Highway 189 and across the valley floor, then down Provo Canyon to Vivian Park. Passengers on excursions with names like the Provo Canyon Limited, Lakeside Limited and Deer Creek Express ride in vintage (and heated) coaches that are pulled by restored locomotives.
One of the creepers under restoration is particularly renowned. The 1907 Baldwin Steam locomotive No. 75 has appeared in classic westerns alongside Kris Kristofferson, Brad Pitt and Charles Bronson.
Don't let the gloom of winter keep you from enjoying a piece of Utah history this year. Evening rides scheduled this January and February include the Chocolate Lovers Train, Magic Train and Valentine's Day Train.

Wood pallets cited as cause for McNeil's Tylenol recall
April 01, 2010 - MMH Editorial
What started out for McNeil Consumer Healthcare as a limited recall of Tylenol Arthritis Pain caplets, has swelled into a massive recall of products and caused a headache for the wood pallet industry.
The recall raises two questions: What was the source of the wooden pallets in question? And, are other U.S. manufacturers at similar risk if they are shipping on wooden pallets?
The short answers are that McNeil has not positively identified the source of the wooden pallets at issue. More importantly, 2,4,6-tribromoanisole, the chemical used to treat the wooden pallets in question, is not used to treat wooden pallets in the United States. Manufacturers and shippers using wooden pallets manufactured in the United States would not face a similar risk, according to industry experts.
Back in December, McNeil announced a voluntary recall of the Tylenol product due to consumer reports of an unusual musty, mildew-like odor that was being associated with unpleasant gastrointestinal symptoms. Since then, the recall has extended to other products, including additional Tylenol pain relievers, Motrin, Rolaids, Simply Sleep and St. Joseph products. All told, more than 54 million bottles of product have been recalled.
According to a statement by McNeil on Dec. 18, 2009: "The uncharacteristic smell is caused by the presence of trace amounts of a chemical called 2,4,6-tribromoanisole. The source of the 2,4,6-tribromoanisole is believed to be the breakdown of a chemical used to treat wooden pallets that transport and store packaging materials."
The chemical, 2,4,6-tribromoanisole (TBA), can result from the breakdown of another chemical called 2,4,6-tribromophenol (TBP). McNeil contends that TBP from the wooden pallets degraded into TBA, which contaminated product containers and the finished product inside.
The wood pallets in question are believed to have originated in the Dominican Republic then used to ship product from McNeil's manufacturing facility in Puerto Rico into the United States. However, it's extremely difficult, if not impossible, to trace the exact origin of the wood, said Mark White, professor emeritus at Virginia Tech's department of wood science.
White also explained that TBP is used in some parts of the world as a fungicide, but neither TBA nor TBP are legal to use domestically. "These chemicals are not registered for use in United States," said White, "and that should give us some degree of comfort."
That may be the only point offering comfort in this situation. McNeil's slow response to consumer complaints has drawn the ire of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and pointing the finger at the wood pallets has the National Wooden Pallet and Container Association (NWPCA, http://www.nwpca.com) up in arms.
In their own defense, McNeil's statement said, "The health effects of this compound have not been well studied, and to date all of the observed events reported to McNeil were temporary and non-serious."
Regardless, in January, Deborah Autor, director of the FDA's compliance office, publicly scolded McNeil. She said, "When something smells bad, literally and figuratively, you aggressively investigate and solve the problem."

Last year, Running with Ed, a 38-mile relay race through Park City, raised $135,000 for schools in the Park City School District. That was a $45,000 increase from the 2011 total.
This year, event organizers are expecting even more growth. Several race teams signed up for this year's race immediately following last year's event.
But while the event usually draws some serious runners, Running with Ed is all about the kids, according to Nate Brown, a physical education teacher at Parley's Park Elementary School and Trailside Elementary School.
"The best part is that the money raised goes into the schools for possible grants and other items that help the kids," he said. "It's just a good way to show our kids and their families that we support them."
Brown is also part of a dual-immersion relay team called "No Merci" featuring Spanish and French teachers in the district.
"We have teachers that teach either Spanish or French all day to elementary kids through dual immersion programs," he said.
But some people don't understand the wordplay in the team's name, Brown added.
"People have been spelling it wrong ever since we signed up," he said, noting that most people try to spell it as 'No Mercy.'
That won't stop his team from having a good time at the event, though.
"It's not as competitive as people probably think," he said. "The biggest thing is it's a great way to get the teachers and people in our district to get out and show their support.
And the health benefits of getting in a good run are something Brown likes too.
"Other than that, it's just a fun day," he said.
Teams will start the race between 8 and 10 a.m., with the slower teams starting first. There are 175 teams registered for this year's event, up from 125 teams last year.
Race organizer Jennifer Billow of the Park City Education Foundation said about $110,000 have been raised so far, with plenty of fundraising left to go.

Kitchen Remodeling
So, you think you want a kitchen remodel? Before you're sold on the idea because the last bag of groceries didn't fit in your overstuffed pantry, take a deep breath and think about your options.
If you do decide on the big overhaul, here are some tips and tricks to help you out. First, know that this is probably the biggest remodeling job in the entire house. Get ready for some frustrating times ahead. It'll most likely be like having a baby - the end result will make the pain worthwhile, but nevertheless, there will be pain.
And of course, surprises! …there will be some, so get prepared. Here are three surprises to expect up front:
- The project may go over budget. Who knows what lurks behind those cabinets, under the dishwasher and above the stove? A contractor can only give an estimate on what he can see and unforeseen problems often arise.
- There is a good chance completion will take longer than you think. Yep, most of the time, it's those sneaky problems that cause the delay.
- Your kitchen may not end up "picture perfect," especially if it's an older home.
Does this mean you shouldn't start? No way! Go for the remodel of your budget… you thought I was going to say "dreams," didn't you? Well, hopefully you'll find that, too.
Everything and the Kitchen Sink:
- Wiggle Room in the Kitchen: Decide on a comfortable budget with a back-up plan if extra expenses crop up. Only agree to put down part of the cost. This Old House experts suggest a down payment of 30 percent of the total cost, along with working out a payment schedule for the rest.
- Will the Best Contractor Please Stand Up? Choose a contractor. If you can find someone by word-of-mouth, great. If not, there are to connect you with reputable contractors. Always ask for references. And know that the best contractors are usually the busiest, so you may have to wait. This is a good thing because it gives you time to finish your work on step 3.
- "Plan-It" Kitchen: You can't zone out or you'll end up with the kitchen from outer space. In other words, you'll get the kitchen you didn't plan. The contractor may be great, but he's relying on you to tell him what you want. Either hire a kitchen planner or architect to help, go online and work up your own design, or find some pictures in to get started. Look around to see what's in the room and find out what can and can't be moved before finalizing your plan.
- To Replace or Not to Replace, That is the Question - Think function over form, although appearance certainly has its place.
- Remember the "work triangle," the location of the refrigerator, range and sink. The idea in working with the triangle is to save steps and create easy- flow passages.
- Decide what kitchen floor plan works best for you: L shape, Island, U shape or Galley. See pictures of the different floor plans .
- Think about resale value if that is a possibility in the future. Although the kitchen is the most expensive to redo, it also steps up and offers the biggest return on your investment.
- To Replace or Not to Replace:
- Kitchen Cabinets - Do you need new ones? Pre-made or custom-built? Decide whether your existing cabinets can be painted or instead. You can often just update the doors and hardware to get the look you want.
- Countertops & Backsplash - Try to mix and match different countertops throughout the area. What are the most durable materials that fit the use of the space and also fit your budget? A good design scheme might be tile for an office space, slate for an island and inch-and-a-half-thick chopping block pieces for work spaces. The price for chopping block is fairly reasonable and after the wood is sealed, its functionality and visual appeal are often more than you bargained for.
- Flooring - If your kitchen is older with linoleum floors, do you have hardwood underneath that can be refinished? Popular flooring choices are laminate, real hardwood, tile or polished concrete.
- Appliances - Think about how important each one really is, and always try to conserve width and energy. For example, do you really need a six-burner stove? And can you live with a counter-depth refrigerator in exchange for a sleeker look? Appliances with reflective surfaces make your kitchen appear larger. Built-in appliances can also save you space, as in a microwave over the cook top.
- Kitchen Sink and Faucet - You've got so many options here, from cast iron and stainless steel to stone basins. The deeper the bowl, the less space you need for your sink. When you find the right faucet, count the holes on the sink to make sure it'll fit.
- Kitchen Lighting - Did you plan for lighting over the sink, workspace and table? Some options are recessed, pendant or cable lighting. Remember that bright lights make a kitchen look bigger, warmer and cheerier.

1) Make the economy work for you
Take advantage of the deals you can snag thanks to a soft economy. This summer, why not try Hawaii for your holiday, says Nancy Friedman, president of Nancy J. Friedman Public Relations. With Japan's market down, the islands will have some great bargains, including discounts on a variety of resorts and restaurants. Check out GoVisitHawaii.com for more insider money-saving tips on your Hawaiian vacation.
Also worth considering: cruises, which are having great deals at all prices ranges, says Alice Marshall of Alice Marshall Public Relations. The number of ships to choose from continues to grow, likely due to demand from frugal travelers. "I think when people are more price conscious, they like that everything's up front," Marshall says. "You know what you're going to spend and there isn't a surprise credit card bill when you return home." Head to sites like CruiseCompete.com, for price quotes from over 300 agencies; or CruiseCritic.com, to find tools to help you pick the right cruise ship line for you.
2) Hit uncharted territory
Or break away from the pack and skip the hot spots this summer. You can drive to many wonderful vacation spots in the continental US--saving money on airfare--and some resorts may even reward you with a gas reimbursement card. When the oil spill happened in the Gulf of Mexico, many resorts in Florida saw a dip in tourism, yet their facilities were untouched, with pristine, beautiful beaches, says Friedman. Do a web search for resorts that are offering promotions.
Like Florida, most winter destinations—the Caribbean, Mexico, Jamaica—are cheap in the summer, says Marshall. Right after a holiday like the Fourth of July or Memorial Day, hotels often have rooms available and you may be able to negotiate the price. "There's no rack rate with hotels and airlines anymore," she says. "People want to fill a room."
3) Stay a step ahead online
Just as you would for any trip, do research. But don't limit that research to a search on Google or Expedia. If you're a fan of a certain hotel chain, resort or airline, sign up for their Facebook or Twitter feeds, as companies often post discounts and deals there first, says Marshall. Be most vigilant on "Travel Tuesday," when many deals are listed.
To keep up with deals on flights, Friedman recommends signing up for email alerts on Airfarewatchdog.com: Enter your destination and the site will notify you whenever deals are available.
If you aren't loyal to a specific locale or resort, you can stay up-to-the-moment on deals on high-end hotels by joining sites like Jetsetter.com or VoyagePrive.com. These sites feature flash sales—available for a few days only—on luxury hot-spots. You can save up to 75 percent, says Marshall.
4) Live like a local
If you're headed away for a week or more, consider an apartment or house rental in the area--find them on VRBO.com or HomesAway.com. Renting a three-bedroom home right on the water in St. Pete Beach might be around $1,400 a week—just $200 a night—and you'd have a full kitchen, amenities, and private beach access.
Once you've booked your trip, Marshall recommends signing up for a daily deals email alert from Groupon.com for your destination city. Throughout your vacation, you will get offers for 50 to 90 percent off of restaurants, spas, museums and more.
5) Reach out and talk to someone
The web has many great offers, but once you've found a deal online, call the hotel directly and make contact with a real person. Marshall suggests calling during the day, as nighttime employees won't have the authority to negotiate. Ask whether they can match or even beat the deal you've found online. At the end of the day, the hotel will have to most up-to-date bookings information and can give you an honest price. "Plus, it's nice to have a direct connection and relationship with the hotel," says Marshall.

For those of you who are new to SiWC, the amazing and generous Robert Dugoni coined what has become our conference motto: this day we write. We try to live by it and to support you in making it your own motto, too.
We've been hearing from a lot of you about your writing goals, and it seems like May is the best thing since Nanowrimo for many of you. Whether it's the energy that comes from spring springing all around you or the panicked realization that the year is flying by, we're all for the motivation we're seeing.
We figure putting your goals in writing, especially for other people, and checking in with progress reports is a great way to help stay on track.
Why not share your May goals here in the comments? And if you're on Twitter, use #thisdaywewrite to share.
Looking for motivation? Why not jump on one of these bandwagons?
Board member and presenter kc dyer is making May her personal "kcnowrimo", attempting to get through a very long list of goals by the end of the month. You'll find her talking about it on Twitter @kcdyer.
Conference coordinator Kathy (that's me! - weird to talk about myself in the third person) is trying to write at least a little something every day in May, reporting in using #thisdaywewrite and #thisMaywewrite
SiWC 2012 presenter Jane Espenson regularly kicks off hour-long writing sprints on Twitter, inviting followers to join her. You can find her @JaneEspenson
SiWC is a little less than six months away. If you averaged 500 words a day between now and then, you'd have over 75000 words by then that you don't have now. That's a book. Or a collection of short stories or poems or dozens of articles or blog entries or whatever it is you're working on. You can do it!
You'll find us on Twitter @siwctweets

I'm trying some of Story-a-Day -- here: http://storyaday.org/
Not sure I'll get a story every day, but maybe every second day? I mean, it's already the 3rd, and so far I've got a short poem... but they do say the story can be any length and you can make the timing work for you...
Anyway, it's a good place to go for some inspiration, especially if you're looking at writing short stories.
KathyChung replied on Permalink
Finding inspiration
Looks like a great way to keep you writing, BJ. Good luck with it!
Anonymous replied on Permalink
I tweeted my May goals. (If I tweet them, I'm committed, right? No backing out now, lol.) My goals are about discipline: morning pages + daily exercise. And this month, I'm working on something just for fun, just for myself -- no pressure, no rules, no expectations. Keeps the joy in it, y'know? Happy writing, everyone!
Anonymous replied on Permalink
I have taken the challenge. Not sure I'll get 50k words, but I know I'll get alot of work done on all my wips. Thanks for the inspiration.
KathyChung replied on Permalink
Keep going!
Love seeing people commit to their goals. Hope the month is going well so far for all of you. Don't despair if there's a hiccup. Every day is a fresh chance to get back on track.

Princeton Hosts Syracuse In One Of The Best Rivalries In College Lacrosse
Related Links
Why bring that game up now?
Well,in many rivalries, that game would have been the highwater mark. When it comes to Princeton-Syracuse, it's not even in the top five of the last 21 years.
Consider these five, chronologically:
1992 - Princeton defeats Syracuse 10-9 when Andy Moe scores off Greg Waller's face-off win to start the second OT, giving Princeton its first NCAA championship
1998 - Princeton trailed Syracuse 8-4 in the third quarter of the NCAA semifinal before rallying to win as Seamus Grooms scored twice in the fourth quarter and Josh Sims snaped a 10-10 with the game-winner with five minutes left. Syracuse had the final chance to tie but couldn't in what would be Casey Powell's final game with the Orange. Two days later Princeton would win its fifth NCAA title and third straight
1999 - Josh Sims scored in the fourth overtime to give Princeton a wild 15-14 win at the Carrier Dome. The game had been tied at 7-7, 8-8, 9-9, 10-10, 11-11, 12-12, 13-13 and 14-14 before the Tigers won
2001 - Princeton 10, Syracuse 9, in the NCAA championship game. Mikey Powell tied it with 16 seconds left in regulation but B.J. Prager won it with 41 seconds left in OT, on a feed from Ryan Boyle.
2002 - Syracuse 13, Princeton 12. The teams met on Memorial Day for the third straight year, and the Orange held off Princeton as Mikey Powell had four goals and three assists.
There were others, too. Princeton beat Syracuse at Giants Stadium in 2009 to take over the No. 1 ranking in the country. Syracuse thumped Princeton in the 2003 quarterfinals after Princeton had beaten the Orange during the regular season while shutting Powell out. Ryan Powell and Liam Banks had huge days in the 2000 NCAA final win for the Orange.
The teams meet for the 29th time as Syracuse comes to Powers Field at Princeton Stadium.
Syracuse leads the all-time series by a 19-9 count.
* * *
Princeton and Syracuse have both played eight games and are both 6-2 overall, 2-1 in their league. Princeton and Syracuse have lost four games between them, and all four have been one-goal losses.
Beyond that each team has a 16-15 and 11-10 loss.
* * *
In eight games, Syracuse has scored 101 goals, while Princeton has scored 100. Syracuse has allowed 70 goals; Princeton has allowed 72.
There have been an average of 79.0 shots per game in Princeton's games and 70.5 in Syracuse's games.
* * *
In the 12 years between 1992 and 2003, every single Princeton men's lacrosse season ended with either an NCAA championship or an NCAA tournament loss to Syracuse. There was no other outcome to a season.
During those 12 years, Princeton went 4-6 against Syracuse and 21-0 against all other opponents in NCAA tournament games.
* * *
Princeton and Syracuse met twice in the 1920s, once shortly before World War II and then one more time in the 1970s. The 1992 NCAA final was the fifth meeting in the series.
Syracuse won three of those first four meetings.
The teams have played in the regular season every year since 1999.
Syracuse has won the three meetings between the teams, including a 10-9 victory in the Carrier Dome last April. Princeton led 7-5 in the third before SU scored four goals in a 1:45 span late in the third quarter and then got the game-winner from Tommy Palasek with 4:11 to go after Princeton had tied it at 9-9.
* * *
Tom Schreiber has at least three points in every game this year and in his last nine games dating back to last year. He has at least three points in 30 of 37 career games.
His current streak of at least one point in 25 straight games is the longest active streak by a Division I midfiedler and the ninth-longest overall in Division I.
Schreiber is also the only midfielder in the top 10 in the Ivy League in goals and points.
* * *
Princeton has no players with between two and 10 goals; Syracuse has seven players with more than two but fewer than 10 goals.
There are seven players in this game who have scored 11 or more goals for the year, and five of them play for Princeton.
Of the next 12 highest goal scorers, 10 of them play for Syracuse.
* * *
Princeton has won 50.8% of its face-offs for the season. Syracuse has won 41.5%.
Chris Daddio has won 49.2% of his face-offs for the Orange, but he won seven of 11 against Princeton last year in the win in the Carrier Dome.
* * *
Princeton has been in double figures in every game this year. It is the second-longest such streak to start a year in program history.
The only other time Princeton started a season with more consecutive games scoring in double figures was in 1951, when Princeton did so in all 10 games.
* * *
Jeff Froccaro had four goals and an assist last week against Brown to earn Ivy League Player of the Week honors for the second time this year.
Froccaro also went over the 100-point mark for his career, becoming the 27th player in program history to do so.
* * *
Ryan Ambler had a goal and four assists last week against Brown to earn Ivy Rookie of the Week and Cascade/Inside Lacrosse Rookie of the Week honors.
Ambler has 10 goals and 12 assists, all in Princeton's six wins. He has no goals and no assists in the two losses.
* * *
Mike MacDonald scored 22 goals last year in 16 games. He has 21 in eight games this year. MacDonald, a sophomore, has equalled his freshman year point total of 30. Last year, MacDonald had 22 goals, eight assists, for 30 points. This year has has 21 goals and nine assists
* * *
At one point this season, Princeton scored on seven straight extra-man opportunities. Take away those seven (against Manhattan and North Carolina), and Princeton is 5 for 24 the rest of the year.
Syracuse has allowed teams to score on nearly more than 45% of their EMOs (15 for 43).
Syracuse is 9 for 25 on EMOs. Princeton's opponents are 10 for 26.
* * *
Syracuse and Princeton have one common opponent. Both teams have beaten Johns Hopkins, Princeton by a score of 11-8 and Syracuse by a score of 13-8.
* * *
Syracuse has outscored its opponents 28-14 in the first quarter. Princeton has been outscored 23-18 in the first quarter by its opponents.
On the other hand, Princeton jumped out to a quick 3-0 lead against SU last year and lost 10-9.
Princeton has outscored its opponents 29-13 in the second quarter and 29-23 in the fourth quarters.
Syracuse has outscored its opponents 29-19 in the second.
* * *
Princeton is ranked seventh by the media and eighth by the coaches. Princeton and Syracuse are actually tied for eighth in the coaches' poll. SU is also eighth in the media poll.
* * *
Both teams have quick turnarounds. Princeton is at Rutgers Tuesday; Syracuse is home with Cornell Wednesday, in another ESPNU game.

text: Emily Sommers has two theories about why, at 46, she's never had what she considers a "successful" long-term relationship: "Either I'm not meant to ever be with anyone, or worthy men are impossible to find." After too many disastrous dates to count, the San Diego-based videographer characterizes herself as "cynical on the way to jaded." Still, she admits, "I don't have time or patience to suffer through a dinner with Cliff Clavin or Danny DeVito!"Ann Richards is another midlife woman who's in no danger of sharing airspace with an undesirable match. The 48-year-old labels herself "terminally single." After enduring "umpteen failed romances," Ann, a Manhattan financial analyst, asks semi-jauntily, "Who says being alone is a bad thing? Let girls in their 20s who have the energy and optimism bang their heads against that wall." Obviously, being partner-free in your 40s is a valid and oftentimes extremely fulfilling lifestyle choice. But when singlehood comes tinged with bitterness and an unshakeable resolve not to settle for anything less than perfection in male form — fantasy 101! — dissatisfaction can be the staple of a woman's daily diet. Are Men Just No Good?The pattern of dysfunctional dating starts young. According to gender expert Susan Shapiro Barash, author of The Men Out There: A Woman's Little Black Book, "If a girl's first relationship at 15 ended badly, the same thing can happen at 28 and at 40. No matter how long she's been in the dating business, if she keeps making the same fundamental mistakes — like choosing the wrong men — she will have the same result."The Men Out There: A Woman's Little Black Book Ann Richards, of the "umpteen failed romances," has noticed a pattern in her own dating life. "All men — at least every one I've loved — are narcissists. Cute as hell, but total self-absorbed creeps."One needn't be psychic to suss out why Kenn Shapiro takes issue with the 'all men are evil' school of thought. The 51-year-old single father and author of Finding It Again: The Truth About Love After 40 states, "Any woman who thinks the trouble is with men — and vice versa — needs to take a step back and look at herself. It's not what's wrong with the other sex, but ultimately what's inside yourself that determines whether you'll be with someone or not."Finding It Again For some women, the prospect of truly reflecting on what lies within is more frightening than skydiving sans parachute. Dr. Elinor Robin, a marriage therapist and Florida Supreme Court-certified mediator, puts it this way: "A person can be so afraid of intimacy and bringing her true self to the table that a man of depth finds her unavailable." Emily Sommers, the videographer with no patience for Danny DeVitos, says that the few men she has liked in the past several years haven't returned the favor. She realizes her string of disaster dates has made her cynical: "Guys have complained that I never make time for them, or that even when we're sitting at the same table, it feels like we're in different rooms. I guess they have a point, but I'm not a kid anymore. I'm juggling a heavy load of chores that don't get done just from wishing. My mind has a mantra going: 'Gee, I've got to take the car to the mechanic tomorrow.'"Make Your Own LuckThe key to changing the mantra of 'love just isn't for me' is a two-layer process. Gender expert Barash explains, "Figure out what you want and go for it." How to start? Two words: "Quit complaining." The next step, she says, "is working to understand your motivation. If you don't want a partner, that's perfectly fine. But if you feel a void, it's necessary to break the pattern of going after the guy who was the football player while you were cheerleader. Try the bookish bald man. You've got to end the drama." It's helpful to actually chart out a romantic resume of your love history. After writing out the details of four failed romances, Claire Lindsay realized that not only was she always choosing commitmentphobes, she herself had seldom answered the needs of her lovers. "When they asked me to do small favors, I refused." The 44-year-old Miami optometrist explains, "It wasn't fun to see my emotional lack of generosity, but it was a blessing to cop to my role in the demise of every relationship I'd ever undertaken!"After you've spotted your past mistakes, it's time to start again. Barash continues, "You've got to create your own reality. Approach the search for the right man much as you did raising a child or forging a career. There's nothing magical about it." First comes the goal; then the work necessary to achieve it.Now Claire Lindsay is a walking advertisement for this straightforward, drama-free approach — and she's through with commitmentphobes. "Once I decided what I actually wanted, I went after it instead of passively hoping the right guy would find me. I approached dating as a job hunt — pursuing every lead, no matter how slim. I broke one of my cardinal rules: blind dates are for losers." Her first (and last) set-up resulted in marriage to a man who her shallower, younger self would have rejected in half a heartbeat. She says happily, "Guess you could say I'm lucky in love!"Do you have a tough question about dating or relationships?E-mail Sherry at firstname.lastname@example.com and your question might be featured in an upcoming column.E-mail Sherry About Sherry AmatensteinSherry Amatenstein, LMSW, is the author of Love Lessons from Bad Breakups and Q&A Dating Book.

May 7, 2007, in Tamil Nadu, India
The employees died of asphyxiation after demonstrators threw firebombs into offices housing Dinakaran, Sun TV, and other media outlets, according to The Associated Press. The protesters were angry with an opinion poll published by Dinakaran that indicated public support for M.K. Stalin's bid for election as chief minister of Tamil Nadu, a post then held by Stalin's father, M. Karunanidhi. Stalin's chief political rival was his elder brother, M.K. Azhagiri.

|Akbar recognized by WAC
DENVER - After helping the Idaho men's tennis team clinch the No. 2 seed in next week's Western Athletic Conference tournament, Idaho junior Abid Akbar earned WAC Player of the Week honors.
Akbar, a junior from Islamabad, Pakistan (Roots School), went undefeated in two singles and two doubles matches last week, helping Idaho to a pair of victories over Utah State and Hawai'i. The wins helped the Vandals clinch second place in the WAC and finish the regular season on a five-match unbeaten streak. Against Hawai'i, Akbar bested Chas Okamoto 6-2, 6-3 in No. 2 singles, and teamed with partner Andrew Dobbs to earn an 8-3 doubles win over Jared Spiker and Carter Lam. The singles victory was especially crucial, as the Vandals barely earned a 4-3 victory. Akbar also earned a straight sets victory over Utah State's Marcus Fritz (6-2, 6-1) and again teamed with Dobbs for an 8-3 victory over Andrew and Lenny Whiting, as Idaho defeated the Aggies 6-1.
Idaho's five-match win streak to end the regular season propelled the Vandals to their second-place WAC finish, marking the third year in a row the Vandals have finished in the top three in the league.

Coalville Mayor Duane Schmidt announced Monday that he is pulling out of the race for Seat C on the Summit County Council. He was running on the Republican side of the ticket leaving Democrat Kim Carson running unopposed.
In a statement emailed to The Park Record late Monday, Schmidt said:
"I have chosen to suspend my bid for election to the Summit County Council. This decision has come with a heavy heart. It is based on concerns over a lingering health issue and changes in my work responsibilities that have diminished my availability of time. I have spent the last eight years of my life devoting my time to public service. I will continue to fulfill my term as Mayor of Coalville. It is imperative that I spend some time placing myself and family first. I know that this may come as a let down to my supporters and for that I am deeply sorry. I would ask that people please honor a sense of privacy towards me and my family at this time."

A call or call option is an options contract that gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy the underlying asset at a specified price on or before a specified date.
Expanded Definition
A "call" option allows the owner to buy 100 shares of a given stock at a given price, called the strike price. This right is good only for a certain period of time. American-style options allow the owner to do this (called "exercise" the option) at any time up to the time the option expires (called "expiry" or "expiration date").
This would only be done if the price of the shares has risen above the strike price.
For example, suppose you own one option to buy XYZ at $60 on or before the third Friday of November. If the price of XYZ is $74 on that date, you could exercise the option and pay $6,000 to buy those shares and immediately sell them for $7,400, pocketing the $1,400 difference. For this chance (after all, the stock could also be trading at $54 on that date, in which case you wouldn't exercise the option), you paid somebody a premium.
There are two people for each contract. For a call, the seller (hopefully) has 100 shares for each contract sold (option contracts are almost always in blocks of 100 shares) and is willing to sell the shares at the strike price. The seller is paid the premium, which he or she keeps regardless of what happens subsequently. The buyer is betting (literally) that the share price will be above the strike price by the expiry. If it is, he or she will exercise the option and get the shares. For this possibility, he or she pays a price (called the premium) ranging from a few cents to a few dollars per share.
The owner of the call option is said to be "long" the call.
The buyer is betting that the stock price will go up before the expiry date, while the seller is either betting that it will not or is content to sell the shares at the strike price.
Calls and other securities
Many bonds, preferred stocks, and related fixed income securities have call provisions. These provisions allow the issuer (the company) to call (buy back) the securities at a specified price on a specified date. Call provisions are somewhat like refinancing a mortgage for the company. They allow the company to call in outstanding debt and refinance the debt by reissuing the debt with a new security. This would only be done at a lower rate.
Some securities have complex call provisions with a schedule of payments required if the issue is called between specified dates. The details are listed in the prospectus for the issue. QuantumOnline does an excellent job of summarizing call provisions. They also provide links to the original prospectus for the issue.

ZF-3578: Zend_Config_Xml throws warnings when loading of xml file was NOT successfull
In the __construct() of Zend_Config_Xml, the function simplexml_load_file() is used for loading the xml file. But there is not checked if loading of the file was successfull, which causes multiple PHP warning to be thrown.
It would be nice/better to just throw an Exception when loading of the XML file was not-successfull. Something like the following would do the job:
$config = @simplexml_load_file($filename);
if (false === $config) {
throw new Zend_Config_Exception('File could not be loaded');
fixed at r10147
Updating for the 1.6.0 release.

ZF-1491: Impossible to get decoded Mime_Part after Zend_Mime_Message::createFromMessage
After decoding a mime string using Zend_Mime_Message::createFromMessage, it is impossible to get to one Part's body since 1) ->_content is protected and 2) getContent() tries to encode it a second time, instead of decoding it properly.
Assign to Nico.
This will be fixed with the merge of Zend_Mime_Message and Zend_Mail_Message.
In the meanwhile if you want to read a mail message you could use Zend_Mail_Message:
$message = new Zend_Mail_Message('file' => '/path/to/message/file');
// or
$message = new Zend_Mail_Message('raw' => ... message string ...);
// get header
echo $message->subject, ' from ', $message->from;
// get content
if ($message->isMultipart()) {
foreach (new RecursiveIteratorIterator($message) as $part) {
echo $part->contentType, ': ', $part->getContent();
} else {
echo $message->getContent();
// or with 5.2
echo $message;
I hope you're not making Zend_Mime_Message tailored only to mail. MIME is used for things other than e-mail, like MM7-encoded MMS messages.
By the way, what's the status of this? It's been nearly a year.
This issue is still open and still applies to the current trunk. I suppose there won't be a fix in zf1 since it will cause BC breaks, are there any plans to address this in ZF2?
Added a getRawContent() method to Zend_Mime_Part to retrieve unencoded values in r23713 in trunk and 23714 in release branch 1.11
