Sign In: Home Page Layout
The Course Material Requisition system is designed to make it easier than ever to select and submit course materials. You will receive an email that contains a link that is unique to your department profile. Clicking this link will take you to the front page of the Course Material Requisition system, where you will find the list of courses you are responsible for.
If you are a department admin, the process for submitting the course material information will differ from that of the instructor. Let's take a few moments to get familiar with the layout of the home page. The first thing to note is the semester drop down menu (Figure: 1a). Be sure to select the correct semester before you begin working.
To the left of the home page you will find the filter menu (Figure: 1b). Here you can set the filter criteria for the courses. The quick filter will allow you to view the course listing by simply clicking one of the following options:
- All Sections – View all courses for your assigned department
- Incomplete Sections – View all unsubmitted courses and sections
- Submitted Sections – View all submitted courses and sections
- Sections w/o Submitter – View all sections without an Instructor
The number of course that fit your filter criteria will be reflected in the upper left for the page (Figure: 1c). Courses that have already been submitted will be indicated with an orange mark to the left of the course (Figure: 1d). Advanced filter options are available to allow you to expand your search criteria (Figure: 2).
Clicking the "Sections Action" (located at the top center of the page) will allow you to add new courses, or to export a copy of all submitted course information to your email (Figure: 3). You will receive the exported file as a downloadable Microsoft Excel spread sheet.
Submitting Course Material Information
To begin submitting information for a course simply click on the desired course on the homepage. You will be taken to the following page:
To the left on the course page, you will find the course sections (Figure: 4a). You may click on a section to submit information for that section. Multiple sections can be linked together by clicking the "Merge with Sections" button. Merging sections will allow you to select textbooks for multiple sections, providing they will be using the exact same books.
In the center of the page, the Department Admins will be able to add past books, new books, supplies, and/or custom course packs (Figure: 4b).
Adding Previous Used Books
To begin adding past books, begin by selecting which semester's history you would to examine. Next, scroll through the list of past titles and click the "Add books to List" button to the below each title. Titles that have been added will be added to the right of the screen (Figure: 4c). Titles can be removed from this list by clicking the "Remove Item From List" button.
Adding New Books
Department admins may also add new books that are needed for the course by clicking on the "Add New Books" tab (Figure: 5a). If you know the book information already, you can simply type in the ISBN, or author and title and then click the "Add Book to List" button.
You may also search for books by typing in your query and clicking on the "Search" button (Figure: 5b). Books are searchable by ISBN, title and author. When you have located the appropriate titles, click the "Add Book to List" button.
Adding Supplies and Custom Coursepacks
Select the "Add Supplies & Custom Coursepacks" tab and click the "Add Custom Coursepack" button (Figure: 6a). The Bookstore will be notified that you wish to use a coursepack. Please note that you'll need to create your coursepack and communicate it to the bookstore via email or phone, or add a note at the end of the adoption.
To add materials such as goggles or a lab coat, just tell us the item's description and then click the "Add" button under the "Add Supplies" sections (Figure: 6b). If you'd like to give additional information, tell us who supplies the product and where it can be found online (supplier and link are not mandatory fields).
Setting Requirements
Choose whether an item is required, recommended, a value option, or go to class first by selecting the appropriate choice from the status drop-down menu to the left of the item (Figure 7).
Finalizing and Submitting Adoption
Double check all desk copy and course book information before finalizing the course material submission. You may add notes and ask questions if needed at this stage.
When all necessary books and supplies have been added and reviewed you may click the "Review Adoption" button located in the upper right portion of the screen (Figure: 8).
You will be prompted to with a pop-up window. Enter the enrollment cap (if know) and indicate any pertinent information in the "note" section (Figure: 9a).
At this stage, desk copies may be requested by faculty who submit their Course Material Requisition information by the designated due dates. In the "note" area, please specify the titles and number of copies of desk copies you are requesting (Figure: 9a).
Desk Copies
If you wish to request a desk copy for a title that will be used for a course, please be aware of the following guidelines:
- Desk copies are complimentary copies publishers release to faculty members who have adopted a textbooks for their course and placed orders at the University Bookstore.
- Please be aware that desk copies cannot be obtained from the University Bookstore. This service is provided to you by the FSA Bookstore Liaison Faculty Student Advocate's Office.
- Desk copy requests will be honored only if your Course Material Requisition (CMR) is submitted by the designated due dates (October 12th for the Spring/Winter Semesters and April 4th for the Fall/Summer semesters). Please note that these dates never change.
- Desk copy requests will be honored only if the original order was placed using the online CMR system which is accessed through a customized link sent from the Bookstore Liaison's Office.
- If you wish to add a title to your CMR after the designated due date, and your CMR was submitted prior to the designated due date, your desk copy request for that title will be honored.
- In order to be eligible for desk copies for the upcoming semester, all previously requested desk copies must be picked up prior to requesting new titles.
- Since all publisher policies are different, they may not send the requested amount of desk copies since the decision is purely of their discretion. If you wish to receive supplementary copies you must contact the publishers. We will provide you with their contact information if necessary.
- Publishers are often unlikely to send desk copies of the same titles in consecutive semesters. If you are distributing desk copies to your teaching assistants, collecting them at the end of the semester is the only way to ensure TA copies for a new semester.
- We are unable to order review copies or exam copies. Faculty wishing to obtain these versions of the books must contact publishers directly. If you need help making a decision regarding their course book materials should visit the Faculy Center Network at www.facultycenter.net, which will allow you to compare course books before requesting them for classes.
- Desk copies must be picked up from the Bookstore Liaison's Office. We cannot ship books through inter-office mail, or through any other methods.
When ready click "Mark as Reviewed" button (Figure: 10b). The adoption is now submitted.
No Text Required
If a course does not require any course materials, make sure no books are listed on the adoption list on the right of the screen. Next simply click the "Review With No Books" button located on the upper right portion of the screen (Figure: 10).
You will be prompted to with a pop-up window. Enter the enrollment cap (if know) and indicate any pertinent information in the "note" section (Figure: 9a). When ready click "Mark as Reviewed" button (Figure: 9b). The adoption is now submitted.
Need to make edits?
If you need to make edits to any submitted course information simply click "Let All Make Edits" located on the upper right portion of the screen (Figure: 11).
Duplicate/Course Not Offered
If a course is listed more than once, or if the course is not being offered, click the "Mark As: Duplicate/Not Offered" button located to the top right of the screen (Figure: 12). You will be prompted with a pop-up window (Figure: 13).
Enter a brief reason for why the course/sections needs to be removed, and click the "continue" button located. Please note that once completed, you will no longer be able to make changes for that course or section. If you find that you are in this section by error, simply close the pop-up window.
Help and Troubleshooting
If you are having difficulties understanding the Course Material Requisition system, or if the program is not functioning properly please email the FSA Bookstore Liaison Faculty Student Advocate's Office at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Inspired by Michele's suggestion of savory crepes with chevre and spinach, we spent this weekend's breakfasts in with a variation of the recipe I posted: cracked pepper cilantro wheat crepe (nix the powdered sugar and vanilla, sub in wheat flour for the AP and up the milk by a splash, plus obviously the fresh cilantro and about a 1/4 tsp of cracked pepper) wrapped around eggs and a combination of the following ingredients:
- roasted red pepper
- zucchini
- summer squash
- fresh tomato
- green onion
- fresh jalapeno
- bacon
- sharp cheddar
Also, oh man, we've been drooling over the burgers at Mustard for the past couple of months even though (as always) we're less interested in the actual burger you get beside your fresh greens than the various potentials it represents. The actual thing is a bit too oily to eat comfortably and easily five times too large, but the potential burger... oh what summer days I have whiled away dreaming of its lofty peaks.
The beef should strike a perfect balance of fat and salt, should be just a little too hot to eat comfortably, pressed between thick sliced bread glanced with the slightest bit of toastiness, the garlic mayo piquant but mellow on the palate, the onions toothsome and just under bursting with balsamic vinegar in every pore, a heavy slice of a tomato for which refrigeration is no more than vine myth, the butter lettuce has been replaced for the duration of the season by fresh arugula, and those accompanying fries actually pretty much exactly the same as they are in real life, tossed in black pepper and sea salt and thyme. Of course since this is a dream burger it also has a blue cheese--let's say Gorgonzola--instead of cheddar and the whole bacon thing (which I'm just going to say I find generally unnecessary, though you might revoke my guy credentials immediately) has evaporated and it's all served hot to me on my couch where I'm already on the second disc of the third season of Buffy (which aired ten frickin' years ago, I might add).
Oh, and all that stuff up there about the dream burger? Yeah, D and I have been making those like once a week for something around a dollar a pop. Take that, restaurants we can't afford.
I haven't been taking pictures of the burgers for no reason I can discern but here are some garlic fries in pre-production. I like to think that the oil is a feature:

For several days past, a male ohild, about
three years of age, has been kept at the Com
mercial Hospital in the hope that some
childless mother would be frilling to adopt it.
No suoh person, however, has yet appeared,
and we have written this paragraph believing
that thete are many who, being aware that
there was a soul deserving of their proteotion,
would be willing to offer It, at least, such as
might be within their power. The phild is
healthy and handsome, and deserves, if we
may judge from its appearance, a better fate
than to be reared among invalids.
Subioi's Aooioirt to a Child. A little girl,
about three years of age, daughter of Mrs.
Cameron, residing on Front-street, in the
neighborhood of the Little Miami Railroad
Depot, yesterday afternoon fell from a table
upon which she had climbed, and Injured
herself so seriously that her recovery is a mat
ter of doubt. In the fall her head struck a
chair, thus fraoturing her skull, while her arm
and collar-bone, were both discovered to be
broken when she was taken up. A physician
was called in, who rendered the little sufferer
as comfortable as his skill would enable him
to do; but he thinks she can not recover from
her wounds. 1

as they were born; Jean Jerques Rousseau
confesses, he took his children to the Found

colored female emulator of this "mid, solf
tortnring sophist" took an infant, about three
days old, and bundling it up In a peouliar
shape, left it, yesterday morning, about eight
o'clock, In the yard of tbe Colored Orphan
Asylum, on Ninth-street. One of the inmates
cf that institution saw her enter and leave
her bundle and then rapidly leave the premises
and finally disappear in the distanoe;nd npon
examination found the little waif, and saved
it, for a while at least, from being lost upon
the ocean of time.

originating in the oven-heating of a furnace
oonneoted with the confectionery establishment
of Alf. Bnrnett, on Fifth-street, between Race
and Elm, broke out, and In a short time des
troyed the rear part of the building. ' The
Fire Department were promptly on hand, and
by their efforts doubtless saved the entire es
tablishment and the neighboring houses from
destruction. , , The entire loss will probably
reaoh $3,000, of which Mr. B. will suffer to
theextentof about $600, the remainder falling
upon the owner of the building, which, we
understand, was fully insured.

Polios Court. Business at the Polios Court
yesterday morning was remarkably dull, and
the cases were of the most ordinary and unin
teresting character. Judge Lowe examined
twelve persons only, but the misdemeanors
; with which they were charged were very
trivial, and hardly worthy of notice. .
Ann Sullivan, one of the most unfortunate
of her class, was charged with the larceny of

James O'Brien, a hungry individual, who
had no conscientious scruples in regard to the
manner in which he satisfed hit appetite, day
before yesterday, entered a private residence
on Rlohmond-street, and finding his way to
the dining-room, began very unceremoniously
to help himself to whatever edibles he oonld
find. He was of conrte ordered to leave the
house ) but this made him indignant, and hit
disorderly conduct caused him to be sent to
the City Prison for a term of ton days.
A man named Miohael O'Connor,1 who, "a,
short time since was industrious, kind-hearted
and sober, wat brought into the Court yester
day morning, charged with drunkenness and
abusing his family. What has caused se sud

Meeting Trustees of the
The Board of Trustees of the MoMieken es
tate, reoenUy elected by the City Council, con
sisting of Rufui King, Miles Greenwood,
Henry F. Handy, James Wilson, Dr. C. G.
Comegys and G. B. Hollltter, met yesterday
afternoon, pursuant to a call from the Mayor,
who is a member of the Board ex-orliolo, and
organised by eleoting .Rums King President,
and G. B. HolHster Secretary. They then
proceeded to draw lots to determine the length
of their different effioial terms, with- iha f0.
lowing result: James Wilton tlx yean; Dr.
Comegys five do.; Miles Greenwood four do.;
Kufnt King three do.; Henry F. Handy two
do.; G. B. HolHster one do.
Several eommnnicatlont were then read
from persons making application' for the tit
nations of Clerk and Messenger for the Board,
but they were laid upon the table, without any
definite action, for further consideration.
Upon motion of Mr. Wilson, a committee of
two was appointed for the purpose of procu
ring a suitable room; in which to hold the
meetings of the Board, whioh was made to
consist of Meiers. Wilton and Bishon.
Mr. Handy then moved that a oom tntttee of
three De appointed to inquire into the condi
tion of the MoMioken property, the amount
of rental revenue annually derived therefrom,
the number of leases, and how Ions thev have
yet to run, and also to report an inventory of
au ins reai ana personal properly oeaueathed
by Charles MoMioken to the city of Cincinnati.
After a short discussion it was adopted, with
the amendment that the committee attend to
the repair of suoh .houses as might need al
teration, and thote dutiet were placed in the
banda of Messes. Greenwood, Hollister and
Hand., . i . y Vj ,, .., , , ; ;
The Board then agreed, after the matter had
been lengthily ditoussed, that Judge Warren,
the present agent of the estate, should act as
suoh until a new one wat appointed.
Upon motion of Mr. Hollister, a oommittee
consisting of Mr. King and the City Solicitor,
was appointed, for the purpose of obtaining
from .the Probate Conrt a copy of the account
latoiy rendered by the Executors.
Mr. Hayt, the Oity Solicitor, was then called
upon for a statement in regard to , the condi
tion of the suit now pending In a New Or
leans oourt, in whioh a neDhew of tha luta
Charles MoMioken layt claim to a piece of
yiuymij in aid stana anown at tne Daven
port tract Hs ttated that it was now before
tbe Conrt for final adjudication, and that In
three suits already decided, a decree had keen
rendered in favor of the plaintiff. This prop
erty it worth $23,000 or $24,000, and it it not
unlikely that the oause now pending will be
decided similarly to thote that nroAMdad It.
The Board then adjourned to meet next Fri

'21 Jump Street' Directors Leap From Cartoons to Reality
Yesterday was the opening day for "21 Jump Street," Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum's buddy-cop comedy based on the 1980s television series of the same name. But it's also a benchmark for directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller, as the duo makes a transition from animation to live-action after successfully turning the beloved children's book "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs" into a thrilling, hilarious adventure. While they've bounced back and forth between the two worlds in the past – going from MTV's "Clone High" to "How I Met Your Mother" – "Jump Street" is brass-tacks time for the two of them, as they test how their penchant for taking chances (Channing Tatum in a comedy?) pays off at the box office.
Speakeasy sat down with Lord and Miller at the South by Southwest film festival, where "21 Jump Street" premiered earlier this week. In addition to discussing their unexpected – and brilliant – casting choices, they revealed their trepidations about taking on the action comedy, and examined the differences, and similarities, between their past projects and their current one.
Speakeasy: Jonah's pedigree as a comedic actor is obviously well-established, but what made Channing was right for the role? Was there a role or performance that he'd given before that really showed you what he was capable of?
Lord: I just didn't know very much about his stuff.
Miller: Our only experience with him was "Step Up," which we actually thought he was awesome in.
Lord: But I didn't watch "Step Up" until we started talking about him. But when you go back and you look at that stuff, he's awesome in "Step Up" and he's natural and you see him hanging out with his buddies and it's really genuine and it's funny and he seems like a good guy. And then we saw him do a couple of weird shorts online. We looked at him on "Chelsea Handler" or something, and then we found a short with Joseph Gordon-Levitt where he was being totally weird, and then he did a short where he's reenacting a scene from "Dirty Dancing" with a funny wig and doing everything else straight. I mean, we were like, that's awesome! He isn't trying to be funny with a capital F, he's egoless about it. He's just trying to be in the scene.
Miller: He's not mugging or hamming or trying to be, "I'm so funny." He gets the essential core of how to be funny, and Jonah calls him up and it turned out they were big fans of each other and then we sat down and had dinner with him and in five minutes we're like, this guy is just naturally funny and charming and he likes to joke around. You say a joke and he'll joke right back.
What about the other cameos or smaller roles in the film? With Jake Johnson, Nick Offerman, Ellie Kemper, and folks like that, were those literally just roles that you guys cast, or were they people that you're friends with that you wanted to come in and do something in the film?
Miller: Well, we were looking for people who were good improvisers because we knew we wanted to have a loose set and have people who were going to be able to go back and forth. So we were picking everybody — Riggle, Ice Cube, everybody we knew were going to be able to have fun on the set. We were big fans of Offerman and I think what he's doing on "Parks and Rec" is one of the best characters on television right now.
Lord: And Chris Parnell, who slays in every table read he's ever in. But we did have a predisposition for faces that you might not have seen necessarily. Davey [Franco] falls in that category of somebody I thought was amazing in the stuff that I'd seen him do online, but felt fresh. And I feel like Jake is like that too. He's an emerging guy, and now he's in everything, obviously, but he and Jonah are actually close friends, and so Jonah was very excited. But we talked to his agent, who is a close friend of ours, and we're [asked] who are you like the most excited about right now? And he was like, Jake Johnson. He's really, really, really special.
What was the most intimidating thing that you guys were going to have to shoot? There were action sequences in "Cloudy," but it's a different thing when you have full three-dimensional space to put the camera anywhere you want.
Miller: Yeah, and it's a camera that you don't have to worry about and instead of having a crane that's on a Porsche Cayenne that has to move and catch things while the actors are saying their lines and people are shooting blanks.
Lord: The whole process is intimidating because you've got these guys that have been on 20 movies or more, and everybody on the set is more experienced than you. "Cloudy" was really no different at the beginning, but the temperament of an animation studio is such that everybody's kind of like us — people are relatively soft-spoken, it's not the same. Like on a movie set, you really are commanding an army, and you have to learn the difference between "action" and "ACTION!" You need to be the boss, and I think that's something that we had some discomfort with.
Miller: Luckily, we had some really great collaborators. Jonah and Channing were both producers on the movie and thought a lot about the movie, not just from what their character was doing, but the movie as a whole and they were really smart. And Neal [Moritz] coming from doing a lot of big bad-ass action sequences, it gave us a lot of comfort [when he said], "Guys, I know this will work, it's fine." And especially in action sequences, we were [storyboarded] very heavily and planned meticulously. But obviously, it's about having assembled a team of people that you trust and that everyone trusts each other is where you can get the best stuff. And having open room for people to play, but everyone having their eye on what's the goal of the scene, where are the characters in the overall arc of the movie so it's not just loosey-goosey and has nothing to do with the story.
In the weeks leading up to "John Carter" coming out, there was a lot of discussion in the press about Andrew Stanton making a transition between animated and live-action filmmaking. Was that as big a transition as people are making of it?
Lord: It's interesting. There are things that are really the same, but it's not like we've only been speaking with computers for the last four years. You'd hang out with other filmmakers and talk to them about their shots, and [with] storyboard artists and animators or performers, you'd have the same issues of trying to communicate what you want, but still allow the latitude for them to bring what they can bring. And it's no different in live action where you're still trying to create a community where people can mess up and try new stuff and it's okay. But you're boned if you're trying to sit on Jonah Hill and not letting him improvise.
Miller: I haven't seen "John Carter" yet because we've been busy, but I did see "Mission Impossible" that Brad Bird did and I thought it was really enjoyable. That scene in Dubai was one of the best action scenes I'd seen in a long time, I thought. And I'm sure that it was just him being a really talented guy, generally, but when you're making these animated films, it's like making a live action film, just really, really slowly and being able to think about everything really deeply and have lots of conversations. And that was the biggest difference for us, that if we weren't quite sure what we wanted to do with a scene, we would go to lunch and talk about it and like hash it out and then we would come to a conclusion.
Lord: And it's interesting — that "Mission Impossible" scene that you're talking about seemed like something that was meticulously storyboarded and talked about over and over and then condensed down. But "John Carter" has some sequences that feel like they sat down and [asked], what are ten gags for Taylor Kitsch having to walk on Mars for the first time? Let's think of ten ways that he could fall down and we'll cut those all together. That's kind of an animation sensibility. And one of the things about watching our movie for us is I can see things that feel are filmmaker-driven gags or filmmaker-driven sequences that have to be really composed and then at the same time there's this allowance for spontaneity. I like having both, and I don't know that there's a hierarchy or one thing's better than the other.

WADSWORTH — Fresh off a tough loss to Twinsburg and its backup center in the hospital, adversity was definitely working against Wadsworth's girls basketball team.
The Grizzlies shined under trying circumstances, getting off to a fast start en route to crushing Cloverleaf 70-33 in the Suburban League opener.
Wadsworth (3-1, 1-0), which won its 34th consecutive SL game, was playing with heavy hearts. As of Wednesday night, senior Sabrina Parsons remained in an area hospital with undisclosed injuries sustained during the second half of the 50-36 loss to the Tigers.
"It has been pretty tough on the kids, but they're pretty resilient," Grizzlies coach Andrew Booth said. "They don't really let on to the fact, but it's got to be tough when one of your seniors and a main piece of your team is unavailable and in the hospital.
"With all that being said, I thought we played really hard."
Against the Colts (0-3, 0-1), Wadsworth showed no effects of a team that was under stress. The Grizzlies roared to a 46-10 halftime lead behind 15-of-31 shooting from the floor, 10-of-13 at the free throw line and 6-of-9 from 3-point range.
Wadsworth took off its vaunted press and substituted liberally midway through the second quarter, as freshman Jodi Johnson had the best all-around performance with 10 points, seven rebounds and five steals. Haley Hassinger (11 points) and Rachel Goddard (10) were the only other players to reach double figures as the Grizzlies saw 11 players record points.
The only negative was Wadsworth missed 15 of its first 20 second-half shots.
"In the first half, we came out very focused and knew what we had to do," Booth said.
Meanwhile, youthful Cloverleaf found itself down big despite executing its press breaker with impressive success. Most of the Colts' 19 first-half turnovers — they had 29 overall — were in the half court, and 4-of-28 shooting contributed heavily to the lopsided halftime margin.
Cloverleaf played much better in the second half, however, winning the third quarter 12-10 and making a very impressive 11-of-13 free throws for the game.
Center Briona Burgos, forward Emily Civittolo and guard Meredith Illig each had six points, while forward Lauren Gokey had four points and a team-high seven rebounds.
"You want to see what kind of character your team is made out of, especially early on in the year," Cloverleaf coach John Carmigiano said. "I thought that we gave the best effort we could in the second half under the circumstances."
When Cloverleaf guard Jessie Lindemeyer's shot attempt wedged between the backboard and rim in the third quarter, it took a referee 10 solid hits with another ball to jar it free, much to the delight of the sparse crowd.
• With 4 minutes left in the third quarter, the Colts had 14 points spread equally among Gokey, Burgos, Jessie Lindemeyer, Rebecca Polchek, Illig, Lexi Civittolo and Emily Civittolo.
• Laural Palitto had 13 points as Wadsworth's junior varsity won 73-10. Shannon Mohney had four points for Cloverleaf.

With an excess of 30 trillion cubic feet of natural gas discovered since 2009, Israel now enjoys historic opportunities to produce domestic, affordable, and secure energy.
As a result, Israel, like many countries around the world, is encouraging a transition to natural gas as the primary energy source, with the many advantages it offers the consumer, the economy, and the environment: reduced cost of electricity generation and of industrial products, less air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, greater market competition and promotion of exports, strengthening of Israel's economy, etc.
Use of natural gas started in Israel in 2004, mainly by the Israel Electric Corporation and by very large industrial plants. The Israeli government is taking steps to promote the distribution of natural gas to smaller consumers as well. Over the next few years, low-pressure natural gas infrastructures will be developed, which will make it a readily available and accessible source of energy for small industrial plants and for businesses such as hotels, launderettes, restaurants, etc.
In June 1999, the Tethys Sea Partnership discovered offshore the coastal town of Ashkelon the first large natural gas reservoir in Israel – the "Noa" field.
In February 2000, an additional reservoir was found at the "MaryB" field, which contained at the time of discovery an estimated 1.6 trillion cubic feet of gas and began commercial gas production in 2004. Most of the gas is currently used by the Israel Electric Company to operate some of its power plants, which were converted from fuel oil to natural gas utilization.
Natural gas exploration efforts accelerated following the initial discoveries. The natural gas and petroleum exploration market began seeing interest by large investors in Israel and abroad, who initiated marine seismic surveys using innovative technologies.
In January 2009, the Noble Energy Partnership – Avner, Delek Drillings, Israemco and Dor – found a large natural gas reservoir in the "Tamar 1" drill site, approximately 56 miles off the coast of Haifa. The Tamar structure contains an estimated 10 trillion cubic feet of gas, a quantity which can provide for Israel's energy consumption for many years.
In March 2009, the same partnership discovered a natural gas reservoir at the "Dalit 1" drill site, approximately 37 miles off the coast of Hadera, with an estimated 5 trillion cubic feet of gas.
In June 2010 Delek Drillings, Avner, and Ratzio Partnership announced that there is a high chance of locating large natural gas quantities in the "Leviathan" structure, which is jointly licensed to Delek Group, Ratzio Company, and Noble Energy Company. The Leviathan-1 well contains an estimated 18 trillion cubic feet of gas.
The offshore natural gas fields were discovered in intermediate to deep water depths: "Mary B" is 820 feet below sea, "Tamar" – 5,905 feet, and Dalit – 4,920 feet.
Thanks to these discoveries, Israel has become a nation capable of providing for a substantial portion of its energy consumption without dependence on external sources.

Non Profit Donation to Help "at risk and underprivileged
Children & Youth
BlackMat MMA is an official 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization teaching Mixed Martial Arts to boys and girls, young adults and to help "at risk " and "under-privileged" kids in the city of Whittier, California, and the surrounding cities. BMMMA was founded in 2003 to provide boys and girls and young adults a safe haven; a place where they could feel safe, be respected, and be treated with dignity and honesty. A place where they can grow asa martial artist, but most importantly as human beings. At Black Mat they learn the discipline to make changes in their young lives that will help them achieve their goals starting with graduation from middle school then high school and the importance of higher education. Each child or youth is able to train five times a week. Upon arrival each student is welcomed with a hug by trainers and fellow students. They are taught the skills of Boxing, Jiujitsu, Judo, SubmissionWrestling , Kickboxing,Wrestling & Self Defense. Through training they are taught humility, patience, self control, and awareness before self defense.The kids are also taught love, acceptance, compassion and respect for one another. After training the kids have an opportunity to discuss any issues that may be of concern in their lives. New kids may be paired with a mentor, usually another student who has
been attending BMMMA for a year or longer. The students participate in competitions throughout Southern California. They also participate in community service by sharing their testimonies to "at risk kids" in the Vida program ran by the Los Angeles Sheriffs Dept. Over the last 8 years Black Mat has served over 800 kids who have stayed in school, out of trouble and have graduated. Many are currently serving in the Armed Forces.
Staff is available to all students and parents for mentoring, support

California has the highest rank of all states when it comes to troubled youth and teens. According to a study from October 2009, children have been directly or indirectly exposed to violence in the last year. Nearly half of the children and adolescents were the victims of a violent assault and more than one in ten were injured as a result. According to U.S. Attorney General Holder, youth Violence needs to be addressed as a public health problem and not exclusively as only a criminal justice concern.
In the last ten years more attention has been placed on the underlying issues associated with the at risk youth population. These issues include violence, sex, youth crime, poor academic performance and high dropout rates. At risk youth struggle with issues that are complicated and are a result of problems brought on by peers, teachers, and mentors and from social environment. Parents and social agencies are being forced to work as a team in order to find solutions to this growing problem. As a result there is an increase in the interest to bring communities together to create programs geared towards the education and prevention. The best way to remedy this problem is to prevent these teens from getting into trouble in the first place and to help the ones already in trouble find their way out. One place that has successfully completed this mission is Black mat MMA. The founder, Coach Koon, realizes what it takes to make a difference in these teens' lives. He has made it his mission to help in any way possible.
This organization started out in the home garage of Coach Koon. One of his neighbors came home and asked if he can train with him. During the course of the training the boy became comfortable enough to open up about the problems he was having in his life. The organization has come a long way since being in the garage. Coach Koon and his staff have been able to move from the garage into a commercial building. Black Mat MMA is more than just a gym to work out in. The staff provides a place for teens to come and stay out of trouble. The teens learn so much more than just martial arts here. The teens get the sense that someone cares about them and that people are cheering for them to make something out of their lives. For some of the clients the staff members at black mat are the only people who are rooting for them to succeed. Coach Koon and his staff of volunteers offer a variety of services to the teens, including tutoring, counseling and alcohol and drug prevention. Coach Koon has one goal for all of his members and that is to graduate high school and he also encourages them to consider going on to college.
Black Mat MMA is committed to serving at risk youth, the underprivileged and now children with obesity issues. This organization is highly committed to meeting these children's needs by helping them to become exemplary citizens. We believe that this organization is very valuable to the community and would be able to provide so much more with the appropriate funding. Black Mat MMA is the only non profit of its kind in the area. There are no other MMA gyms that work with the kids and the families based on a sliding scale. A sliding scale is when the organization adjusts the cost of the services provided based on the amount the family can afford to pay.
Mission Statement
"The Mission of Black Mat Mixed Martial Arts is to rebuild family values by creating a family environment for under privileged and "at risk" youth and young adults through Mixed Martial Arts as a means to teach respect, self discipline, confidence, family and team relationships.

When will they realize America is tired of their "divide and conquer" attempts. They lost the election, lost Senate seats, lost House seats and were told by the vast majority of patriotic Americans to get lost.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
I think DEVISIVE is Divisive !
When they are writing their tax bill republicans claim $250,000 a year does not define rich and is really not alot of money to live on, but at the same time they fight to the finish any efforts to expand minimum wage to $8.00 or $9.00 per hour. Merry Christmas.
wow you lefty sheep have just watched your pres. demonize and generate real hatred for anybody and everybody that dares to work hard and succeed in this country and you are calling the rupubs devisive.
you folks are as bad as the moonies, blind unconscious loyalty.
If you are going to rant and rave would you please use a spell checker, I believe the word is DIVISIVE, you know like divide and konker ha! ha!ha!
"wow you lefty sheep have just watched your pres. demonize and generate real hatred for anybody and everybody that dares to work hard and succeed in this country a"
You mean the people who raped America of her wealth, then hid the money in overseas bank accounts so as to EVADE paying taxes to help run the country that provided them with the opportunities that allowed them to accumulate their wealth? You mean THOSE people?
Or do you mean the Wall Street investment banksters who gambled with other people's money, caused a market crash to rival that of the great depression. The crash lost loads of retirement money that many seniors were counting on, but which, thanks to Wall Street thieves, has evaporated. Are THESE the good people you mean? The good people who very nearly destroyed the American economy and that of much of the rest of the world. The thieves who lied to their own investment customers and sold them worthless "investment vehicles" while quietly betting against them behind their backs.
You righties are amazing. You have no morals, no integrity, co class, and no brains. Yet you have the nerve to try and tell everyone else how to live. You republicans are puke. Hypocrites, plain and simple. The sooner the GOP dies, the better it will be for America.
I don`t know if anyone saw the article on Yahoo the day after the election .... the hack er group Autonomous claimed that they foiled Karl Rove`s super pac effort to screw with the voting machines in 3 key swing states.... and that if Rove continued in 2014 they would release all the data they had showing what he was up to....
Don`t know if that was a real story but if it was.... God Bless em....
And #$%$ all the politicians who refuse to push for election reform and electronic voting machines that would give the voter a paper ticket his vote to verify his selection.... seems like a simple tech that has been around since the first ATM 20 yrs ago....
Whatever the democrats accuse the Republicans of doing is almost surely what they are doing themselves.
Look up what Reagan`s old economic adviser --- Bruce Bartlett has to say about Republicans today.....
Makes me laugh when I hear Repubs go around telling everyone their Reagan Republicans.... fact is that Reagan only had 6 yrs in office that were decent... cause like Bush Jr -- his last 2 yrs were the worst ever --- with 1100 bank failures and the largest recession since 1929 -- a record that only Dubya beat ....
Who ran congress the last 2 years of Bush? Hmmmmm.
What does this have to do with Ford?
Start with your cpo82002! Then maybe run the gambit with your chuckitout as a corpman, and then once you have evryones attention you could slither into your uawbigman and tell us about your two tours. And being this is the holiday season you then could round it all out with some high powered thumbs up with you kabookie section cheering all your aliases on, you demented old #$%$ loser.
