Kanye West hasn't released the video for his next single, "Good Life," yet, but standing in the Palms' Hugh Hefner Sky Villa, the picture of what it feels like to live good — heck, great — is painted perfectly before your eyes.
It's 34 floors up, and on the outside balcony there's a swimming pool (less than 3 feet of water, but a pool on your balcony is major stunting nonetheless). Part of the pool actually stretches over the side of the building and just hangs there (reinforced by steel and concrete, of course). You can see the entire strip for miles, and directly below is the Palms' signature pool, where their famous "Ditch Fridays" event seems to be taken literally. There's a sea of people in swim attire who definitely aren't at work at this time, a little after 3 p.m. You'd be envious of the people down there if you weren't in a place so immaculate.
The suite is two stories high and features a couple of bedrooms, one of which has a Jacuzzi tub that is connected to a bathroom, which is connected to another bathroom. That one has a shower and a flat-screen TV hanging on the wall, so you can watch while you wash (see "Kanye West's Swank VMA Sky Villa At The Palms: Step Inside!").
Downstairs, West's band is preparing for its VMA performance in an area — yes, an area, not an actual stage. That's how intimate things are going to be. West is one of a handful of acts who will entertain with a one-hour concert you can watch online during the show.
The string section, background singers and DJ A-Trak go over familiar songs such as "Jesus Walks." Kanye is still a few hours from arriving. His schedule is tight, so everyone — from the people backing him on his set to the people putting his set together — needs to be on point.
When Kanye arrives a little after 8 p.m., his smile is huge. He greets Soulja Boy, who will also be performing during the VMAs, and immediately checks things out. Some of the walls feature the album artwork from Graduation.
"This lighting looks incredible, it's very beautiful," he tells the MTV staff. Now it's time to get to work. He reveals a plan for his grand entrance. Even though this is just a rehearsal, he has a gleam in his eye like a little boy who is performing for the grown folk in his living room post-family dinner.
While rehearsing "I Wonder," West seems to hatch an idea toward the end of the song. He stands over the piano and starts playing the keys.
"Do you know?" he sings, breaking it down.
The two background singers answer: "Do you know?"
"Do you know?" he sings back to them.
West's mom and a few of his friends file in. After the song, he hugs them all.
A few songs later, Kanye takes off his red top, towels down and throws on a black T-shirt to rehearse "Barry Bonds." As the song is winding down, he starts freestyling over the instrumental: "Why everybody so mad at me for?/ I wish I could be somebody else so I could talk about me more."
Judging by the rehearsal on Friday, fans can expect no boundaries from Kanye's VMA performance. Although the band is restricted to a small area, you'll probably see 'Ye rapping and entertaining all over the suite.
(Kanye West isn't the only one warming up for Sunday — check out Britney Spears rehearsing her big comeback, Foo Fighters jamming with Cee-Lo and more, and Nicole Scherzinger and Lil Wayne trying out their sexy preshow performance.)
Wait — don't cash out on the VMAs just yet! From Britney's sultry comeback performance to the big winners, you saw it all — well, almost everything!

Should Medicaid Pay More for Primary Care?
The health-care bills passed by both the House and the Senate would both expand Medicaid, the government insurance program for the poor. One important difference between the bills: The House version would significantly boost Medicaid payments to primary-care docs, while the Senate bill would not.
This difference — highlighted in this New Republic piece — isn't on the short list of things everybody's talking about as the Senate and House hash out a final bill. But it's important for people with Medicaid and the doctors who treat them, as well as for the taxpayers who would have to fund higher Medicaid payments.
Medicaid typically pays significantly less than Medicare, which in turn tends to pay less than private insurance. As a result, lots of docs say they lose money when they treat Medicaid patients, and limit the number of Medicaid patients in their practice or refuse to take Medicaid altogether. That can make it tough for people with Medicaid to find care.
So on the one hand, the benefits of expanding Medicaid coverage to more people would be significantly diminished if those people couldn't find a primary care doctor. On the other hand, bringing Medicaid payments for primary care up to parity with Medicare payments for the same services would cost $57 billion over 10 years, according to the CBO.
Health Blog Questions of the Day: Should Congress increase Medicaid payments for primary care? If so, where should the money come from?

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. - USA Today Sports announced its annual preseason college football coaches poll on Thursday and tabbed Alabama as the preseason No. 1 for the second time in four years.
The two-time defending national champion Crimson Tide return seven starters on the defensive side of the football and six on offense. Alabama has won three of the last four national championships and boast a 61-7 record over the past five seasons under the direction of head coach Nick Saban.
Alabama also owns the longest active streak of appearances in the USA Today Coaches Poll at 81 straight polls, including the last 33 polls in the top five. The Tide were also preseason No. 1 entering the 2010 season when they finished with a 10-3 record and a No. 11 final ranking in the coaches poll.
Ohio State is No. 2 in the preseason coaches' poll with Oregon third, Stanford fourth and Georgia fifth. The Southeastern Conference boasts six teams in the USA Today Preseason Top 25, all being ranked inside the top 13.
The Crimson Tide's margin of 118 poll points on the second-ranked Buckeyes is the largest preseason lead for a No. 1 since 2005.

How can we account for the persistent appeal of glossy commercial pop music? Why do certain performers have such emotional power, even though their music is considered vulgar or second rate? In The Persistence of Sentiment, Mitchell Morris gives a critical account of a group of American popular music performers who have dedicated fan bases and considerable commercial success despite the critical disdain they have endured. Morris examines the specific musical features of some exemplary pop songs and draws attention to the social contexts that contributed to their popularity as well as their dismissal. These artists were all members of more or less disadvantaged social categories: members of racial or sexual minorities, victims of class and gender prejudices, advocates of populations excluded from the mainstream. The complicated commercial world of pop music in the 1970s allowed the greater promulgation of musical styles and idioms that spoke to and for exactly those stigmatized audiences. In more recent years, beginning with the "Seventies Revival" of the early 1990s, additional perspectives and layers of interpretation have allowed not only a deeper understanding of these songs' function than when they were first popular, but also an appreciation of how their significance has shifted for American listeners in the succeeding three decades.

Lupita Nyong'o is not the only Hollywood star stealing the fashion show on the EE British Academy Film Awards (BAFTAs) 2014 red carpet. While the actress showed off her green Dior Couture gown on her Facebook page on Feb. 16, it is international superstar couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt that is making fashion headlines with their red carpet looks.
Jolie and Pitt, who starred with Nyong'o in "12 Years a Slave," opted for fabulous suits on the red carpet. Looking, sleek, chic and cool in black and white the duo stood out in their matching color ensembles.
Jolie accessorized her suit with black heels and gorgeous locks, while Nyong'o chose Christian Louboutin heels and Ana Khouri jewelry to complete her Dior Couture gown.
As the Examiner previously reported, Pitt's co-star is nominated for Supporting Actress in 2014 for her powerful role in "12 Years a SLAVE," and for Rising Star in 2014.
It is refreshing to see Jolie rock a suit on the red carpet when every other fashionista will no doubt show up in the season's latest designer gowns.

The deficit reduction supercommittee is apparently bogged down in the usual partisan squabbles. Big surprise. The Democrats won't accept a package of cuts only, and the Republicans balk at any tax increases. Will the threat of the nasty automatic cuts that will happen if there's no agreement be enough to move anyone off dead center? The truth is that the budget can't be balanced by cuts alone; some revenues must be increased to make things work. Republicans used to understand this. Ronald Reagan certainly did, but that was before the anti-tax pledge became a badge of conservative ideological purity. The image of a dozen Supermen trying to find their way out of the phone booth popped into my head while I was thinking about the issue. I'd like to believe I'm wrong, and that these guys for once will put people ahead of party politics, that a dozen brave superheroes will come flying to the rescue, but I'm betting the phone booth wins.

I was working my way across the radio dial on my way home the other night, delighted to hear the right-wing blathersphere ablaze with denunciations of the Occupy Wall Street demonstrators, a sure sign that they're starting to have an impact. Oh, those commies, those hippies, those radicals, those anarchists, those evil revolutionaries and their nefarious plot to destroy capitalism! How dare they trumpet the obvious, that Wall Street bankers are not really on the side of the working stiff (or in way too many cases, of the no longer working stiff) that perhaps the Emperors of Finance have too many clothes, while the rest of us don't have enough. We now live in a country in which the top one percent receive a quarter of all income, and control more than 40% of the nation's wealth. I've been wondering when the other 99% would finally take to the streets. I only hope this thing continues to grow until we see massive demonstrations, angry mobs of ordinary Americans demanding real change, and deaf and blind politicians finally being forced to listen to their constituents and not just to the K Street lobbyists. Power to the people! It's about time.
Investment Opportunity
I'm guessing that the Lords of Wall Street aren't particularly interested in anything the protesters have to say, unless they have a cool tip on a new way to make obscene amounts of money by spinning off esoteric derivatives, insider trading, or taking the economy to the brink and getting billions in bailout money, all of which will turn magically into huge underserved bonuses. The disconnect between the world of the bankers and the world of the unemployed, the foreclosed and the uninsured is so great that the folks who brought this economy to its knees apparently have no concept of the suffering the rest of the nation is enduring. One wonders if they even care.
Job Logic
You've got to love the thinking here. Obama proposes a hefty $450 billion jobs bill, containing many items that Republicans used to favor. The tab is to be paid by raising taxes on the wealthiest Americans to their pre-Bush tax cut levels. The Republicans (surprise) oppose asking the rich to pay for the jobs the bill would create because the rich will use that money (drumroll, please) to create jobs. That no jobs have been created in the years since the tax cut was enacted does not deter the GOP from fantasizing that it will happen this time. In the meantime, the gap between the rich and poor continues to widen while we wait for those mythical jobs to come pouring out of the gated communities of the well-to-do.
It's a Miracle!
A lot is being made these days of the so-called Texas miracle, in which that state has bucked the national unemployment trend. Governor Rick Perry hopes to ride that success all the way to the White House, with the promise of extending that miracle to the rest of the country. Sounds great, doesn't it? Except there's something decidedly less than miraculous when you dig a little deeper. First of all, Texas' unemployment is hardly anything to brag about, Yes, it's below the national average, but only by a little. Many of the jobs pay minimum wage or less. Texas boasts a huge number of working poor, as evidenced by a poverty rate well above the national average. One-fourth of the state's children live below the poverty level. The number of uninsured, highest in the nation, should be a national scandal. Yet he'll have nothing to do with any rational health care reform. Perry's answer to his state's problems? Cut benefits for the poor and unemployed. Cut Medicaid. Cut education. And pray for divine intervention. I didn't even mention his stance on climate change in the cartoon. The drought, predicted by climate scientists who study such things, has hit his state hard. Wildfires continue to burn across wide areas of the state. Perry's hatred of the federal government and taxes hasn't stopped him from applying for federal disaster relief–paid for by tax money. Perhaps his weird contempt for the good done by Social Security for the past 75 years will derail his ambitions, but don't count on it. He is a prodigious fund-raiser and a dogged campaigner. He's at least an even bet to win the nomination. Maybe we should all be praying for a different miracle.
Bad News
How to End the Recession
Yesterday, the last of the recall elections in Wisconsin were decided. All told, more than $35 million was spent to overturn two seats in the Wisconsin statehouse. That was just for the campaigns. I don't know how much the state of Wisconsin spent to hold the elections. The total for the nine recall elections was double the amount spent on all 116 Wisconsin legislative races in the last election. Mind you, that was just for the state legislature. Given the historic unpopularity of Congress, and of politicians of all stripes, I propose that we recall all elected officials at every level everywhere in the country. Can you imagine the enormous amount of money that will suddenly flow into every corner of this nation? Corporations, which have been sitting on enormous stashes of cash, but have refused to hire people, will likely have no qualms about pouring money into those races. The political parties and lobbyists will throw record wads of cash into the fray to protect their turf. That's money pumped directly into the economies of every city, county and state in the land. Recession over. And best of all, we might actually get rid of a fair number of the most annoying politicians. It's a win-win.
Ball and Chain
The president, freed, at least temporarily, from the limit hostage crisis, has turned his attention, finally, to jobs. His problem, and the nation's, is that there's almost nothing he can do to create more jobs. Having tied himself to deficit reduction, he can't very well call for the stimulus necessary to shake the economy out of its doldrums. Even a modest jobs program will cost billions, and more government spending is a virtual impossibility now that Obama has caved on the deficit. In his zeal to find common ground with Republicans who had no interest in compromise, Obama once again gave away too much and gained too little (in this case, nothing). Austerity is now the entire game plan at a time when more stimulus is desperately needed, and Obama will find there's little he can do to turn the economy around before the next election.
They Want WHAT?
Washington has zeroes in with laser-like focus on the most pressing issue of our day–the unacceptable level of unemployment. No, wait! Just kidding. It's cutting the size of government, which of course, matters more than anything else to the millions of Americans who can't find work, who have lost or are in are in danger of losing their homes, who can't afford health insurance, who are increasingly desperate as this recession lingers on and on. As the day this country must raise debt ceiling or default on its obligations approaches, the president and the leaders of both parties are working day and night to hammer out an agreement cutting the deficit mostly by shredding the safety net; the only question is by how much and whether the rich will be asked to shoulder any of the burden, or whether it will fall entirely on the neediest and most vulnerable among us. Whatever happened to jobs being the most important thing on the agenda? Come back later. Preferably after the next election. Can't you see we're busy?
The upcoming "golf summit" with President Obama, House Speaker John Boehner, and late additions Paul Ryan and Joe Biden, may well produce the long-awaited agreement on deficit reduction, forestalling a default brought on by Republican (along with some Democrats) refusal to raise the debt ceiling. It will, even if it succeeds, do absolutely nothing to solve the more immediate problems facing us. Any agreement is bound to produce a certain amount of pain, especially among those who most need government help right now.
In so many ways, the whole issue of deficit reduction is a red herring. The party insisting on austerity now is the same one that two years ago was claiming that deficits don't matter as the combination of the Bush tax cuts and two unfunded wars created a massive budget hole. When the economy imploded, however, the Party of No took aim at the much-needed but too small stimulus as reckless spending. Democrats, scared out of their wits by the last election, bought into the notion of budget cutting rather than stand for what they know is necessary: more stimulus. Thus the charade we now witness, in which the president and Congress will make a harmful budget deal and each will claim success.
Meanwhile, the economy, without any hope of government help in the near future, slides back into the doldrums, the jobless rate stays stubbornly stuck near 10%, business awash in cash lavish obscene bonuses on their executives while refusing to hire, and Washington fiddles.
There's a very good reason to be wary of austerity measures in times of deep recession. It's easy to portray government as some disconnected entity consuming vast resources, and that cutting off the money flow will somehow improve things. Easy and lazy. What gets cut when budgets are slashed? Teachers, government employees, aid to states, Medicaid, federal and state construction projects. In other words, people. More people are thrown out of work, those without health care get sicker, and the programs that help them are eviscerated. So, a vicious cycle of higher unemployment and smaller safety net. Will someone please explain to me how this will get the economy moving again?

NYSSPE – Suffolk Chapter
Upcoming EVENTS
Good Afternoon Jaclyn,
As we have received many questions
from our members about the current Design Build legislation,
therefore we have posted an updated position statement on
our website, which was drafted by Mark C. Kriss, Esq., The
New York State Society of Professional Engineers (NYSSPE)
Legislative and Legal Counsel.
The following is an introduction to
the position statement which discusses the Design Build
process with respect to both the private and public sector.
Private Sector
Design Build (an alternative project
delivery methodology used in lieu of Design-Bid-Build) is
permitted to be employed on private sector projects in New
York State, provided that the scope of design services and
the amount to be paid for such services is clearly set forth
in a contract executed by the project owner, the contractor
and the design professional. While many, particularly in the
general contractor community, maintain that the use of a
three-way contract is not required and that a general
contractor can contract with a design professional on
project owned by a third party, the NYS Education Department
unequivocally maintains that this type of an arrangement
runs afoul of the State Education Law and Rules governing
the design professions. A design professional should
consider the potential for professional disciplinary action
(e.g. fee splitting and aiding and abetting the illegal
practice of engineering) before participating in a Design
Build project.
Public Sector
With regard to the public sector
projects in 2011 legislation was enacted on a pilot basis to
permit specially named state agencies to utilize Design
Build. NYSSPE along with others in the design professional
community, as well as the State Education Department, voiced
concern regarding the failure of the 2011 legislation to
expressly include quality assurance safeguards in the
legislation. The original statute expired in early December
2014 (with an exemption for ongoing projects) and new
legislation has been proposed by Governor Cuomo as part of
his executive budget. The Society has issued, and broadly
disseminated, a position statement which renews our concerns
regarding the 2015 Governor's Budget Proposal which proposes
some amendments to the pilot program. A copy of the NYSSPE's
position statement is set forth below.
Thank you,
Meetings are open to all
members. Come and help plan upcoming seminars and EVENTS. More Information.

We had five children with us who enjoyed playing football and all of the other camping activities with Bruce's Grandchildren and our camping neighbours. The newly built showers and toilets were immaculate as was the washing up room which has two sinks with drainers and a freezer. I was given good recommendations by Bruce for a superb fish and chip shop in Rhosneiger and an Indian restaurant in Vally. Treardur Bay is Fifteen minutes away. Ideal for crabbing on not so hot days. Dogs are welcome on both beaches. There is a retail park at Treardur Bay with a Morrisons, Tesco KFC etc.. The site is very flat and level and drainage is exceptional.

I am of the opinion that both have very short half-lives.
It is not clear to me what impact Beck's rally had on people. From what excerpts of his program I saw, he was preaching to the choir. And no "legs" since then.
The Stewart program was clearly well produced, and I did find it entertaining. Good turnout, some fine musicians, a few comedy sketches, yada yada yada.
It will be deconstructed by the usual suspects, whom Stewart excoriates regularly on "The Daily Show."
But my hunch is that it will quickly fade away as a moment on the Mall, just like Beck's has.
Martin Luther King set a high bar with his "I Have a Dream" speech at the Lincoln Memorial in 1963. Neither of these rallies comes close in comparison or importance.

On Thursday night's episode of "Impractical Jokers," titled "Clash of the Jokers," Tru-TV states a loud and clear warning that the following program contains scenes of graphic stupidity among four lifelong friends who compete to embarrass each other. Joe Gatto, Sal Vulcano, Brian "Q" Quinn and James "Murr" Murray would do just about anything to win a challenge.
This presentation comes from Flatiron Hall in New York City to present never-before-seen clips, where the jokers are pitted against each other. In the first group of clips, the four are in a focus group; it is Joe versus Murr against Sal versus Q. When the people file in, with Joe leading the group, Murr is a member of the group, who must answer exactly as the notes state. Asked what they use the internet most for, Murr replied that he is a sculptor and makes clay Clay Aikens models. When asked if they participate in any sports, Murr replied that he was in an adult Duck Duck Goose league. The other participants were either laughing out loud or in shock at his answers. When asked if they had any side effects from over-the-counter drugs, most replied no, but Murr said he had an itchy assh*le. When they had to name three things on their grocery list, Murr replied with, "I left that one blank," because he was supposed to say, I live alone, so yogurt, ham and tampons. Making him the loser for the round.
When the other team went, Sal asked the questions and Q had to reply. Asked their favorite type of food; Q replied weird ethnic. Asked how they pay for their groceries when they shop; cash, credit, debit, other? The next question was name three things you watch on television. Q's answer contained all expletives and both he and Sal won the round, as the other people in the group just stared at him in amazement.
For the next challenge, they were at the Brooklyn Cyclones baseball game, pitching their mascots. It is Sal versus Joe and Q versus Murr to get the fans to choose their mascot. But they will not know what the mascot is until the challenge begins. Joe had a picture of his mascot, "Gary the Gluten-Free Pizza" and Sal had "Elliot the Effeminate Shark." Finally, a man chose Gary. When Q and Murr had their turn, Murr's was "Saladboy," a head of lettuce wearing a baseball cap, and Q had "Salad Boy" with pickles for arms and legs, a but more animation, and also wearing a baseball cap. As they competed to get the guy to vote, he finally voted for Murr's creation.
The next challenge was in a mall, where they had to get people to settle their silly debates and take one side. It was Joe versus Q, and they did not know what the topic was until it was given to them by the other team. They stopped a pretty woman asking her to settle the debate, each believing they are the best break dancer. Joe started off doing the robot, when Q tried to do the Worm, he looked more like a fish taking its last breaths, and Joe won, as the woman quickly walked away.
Another challenge was the guys posing as authors trying to get their books published, they did not know the title of the book until it was revealed to them. It was Murr versus Sal on this challenge. Murr's book was "How I Discovered My Body" a coming of age tale, and Sal's was "The Bible II" got the most votes on this challenging episode of "Impractical Jokers."

Not only is Amy Poehler hosting the 2014 Golden Globes with friend and cohort Tina Fey for the second year running, she is also awaiting the verdict on her third Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress in a TV Series. Poehler plays Leslie Knope, central character in the TV series Parks and Recreation.
The Golden Globes, renowned for its relaxed atmosphere, kicks off the film and TV awards season. It is a format well suited to the deadpan comedic styling's of Poehler and Fey. States Fey, "… people wear pretty outfits and sometimes movie stars get drunk and then they talk."
When asked about the night's festivities, Poehler's self-deprecating response doesn't give any hint of anxiousness on her part. "It is kind of a cool night where television and film are honored together, so it's this rare opportunity where all the beautiful, symmetrical people of film get to hang out with us rat faced TV people."
When asked about the nature of her relationship with Fey, Poehler quips. "We've never spoken to each other personally."
But when asked about Parks and Recreation, Poehler becomes uncharacteristically serious and reveals how much it means to her. "Oh man … I hope this show lasts forever. It's a dream job. I love every minute of it and everyone involved in it."

We have users separated into groups. Users can't see some publications, though we assigned them some permissions. What permissions or settings need to be made so that they can see the publication?
Access permission in SDL Tridion is a multi-step process. For your case, you first have a group where you assign all publication visible to the member of this group. Now at this moment if you try to log in to the CMS system with any of the member of this group, you won't be able to see any publication. The second step is that you need to go to the individual publications, right click and go to the security tab. Here choose your group (Check "Show All" if it is not visible) and you will see some thing as shown in the image below:
For the Group in concern you will see that No Permission has been granted for the user. For each publication, you have to specify what all access right the group would have. To make the Publication visible, you must have at least one option enable from the various available shown in the screen shot above.
Strictly speaking the only right necessary is
Also check exceptions. If user is part of multiple groups, in some of them, there might certain permission can be explicitly denied.

text: How Does the College Accommodate Students With Special Needs/Disabilities? Wheaton College does not discriminate on the basis of disability and offers accessible housing and other services to students who properly establish a need for them. Students with disabilities who may require accommodation with respect to campus housing or food services should contact the Assistant Director of Residence Life for details as to the kinds of documentation that may be necessary to obtain accommodations in housing or food services. The Assistant Director of Housing will evaluate the request and, if necessary, consult with the Director of Residence Life and Housing, the Director of Student Health Services, the Dean of Student Life, the Dean of Students, and/or the Director of Physical Plant before communicating back to the student how the request will be resolved. For further information, please see College policy on Services for Students with Disabilities (available on-campus only). When do I find out my housing and roommate assignment? New students receive their housing information in early July via Wheaton College email. Continuing students receive their housing assignment confirmation in mid-July via Wheaton College email. Does campus housing close at any point during the school year? Yes, campus housing closes for Christmas Break, Spring Break and the summer months. Campus housing remains open for Fall Break and Thanksgiving Break. For specific closing dates and times, see the Residence Life Calendar. Do the residence halls have kitchens? Yes, each residence hall is equipped with a kitchen, which includes at least one oven/stove, at least one microwave, a refrigerator and minimal cooking utensils. How do I find out specific information about my residence hall room/apartment/house? Go to Housing Options for detailed information about each campus housing unit. Who may apply to live in campus-owned apartments and houses? Students who will be in their 3rd, 4th or 5th years at Wheaton College are eligible to apply for campus-owned apartments and houses. How do I ship my belongings to campus? All mail is received at the College Post Office (CPO). The mailing address for both packages and letters is: <Student's Name> CPO <number> Wheaton College 501 East College Avenue Wheaton, IL 60187 Questions regarding CPO address or shipping may be directed to the College Post Office at (630) 752-5083. What type of computer do I need to hook up to the campus network (ResNet)? Go to the Resnet homepage for more information. Should we buy renters insurance? We suggest that every family look into their current insurance plan and determine what coverage it provides your student at College. Though we are a Christian community and work to foster a trusting community, there are times things go missing. Every year we have reports of clothing, computers/laptops/tablets, smart phones, bikes, wallets, game consoles, and text books going missing. It is not a common occurrence, but we would want your student to be covered if something like that happened. Wheaton College has connected with Gradguard to offer students affordable renters insurance. With a deductible of $100 and a cost as low as $12 per month, Gradguard is a wise investment for all students living away at school. What type of storage is available? All the residence halls provide limited storage at no cost for students who want to store boxes over the summer. Space limitations vary by residence hall; contact the Residence Director for more information. Residence Halls provide limited bike storage on a first come, first serve basis throughout the academic year and over the summer. Each campus apartment is assigned a basement storage cage, which is approximately 6'x3'x6'. Summer storage is only available to students who are continuing their enrollment the following fall semester. See the Policies page for more information. Can guests visit me & stay in my residence hall room/apartment/house? No overnight guest of the opposite sex is permitted at any time in student housing. All guests of the student should be the student's peers and friends. Parents and other adults should not be invited to stay in College housing. Guests are limited to three-day visits, and guests in the residence halls must be registered with the Resident Assistant. Wheaton does not offer any other guest housing. How do I change my meal plan? Meal plan changes may be made until 4:30PM on Friday of the first week of classes, each semester. Changes must be made online or in writing and sent to the Housing Services Office (Student Services Building 218) Changes sent only to the Student Accounts Office or the Wheaton Installment Program will not be honored. How do I resolve a roommate conflict? Speak directly to the person with whom you are having conflict. Identify the area causing conflict for you and identify the options that will help the conflict be resolved. Seek input from the person with whom you are in conflict to understand the conflict from his/her perspective and to hear his/her ideas about how to resolve the conflict. Discuss solutions until all persons agree on understandable and attainable solutions that, to the best degree possible, will help all persons in conflict be resolved. If the suggestions above have not worked, or you feel intimidated by the person(s) with whom you are in conflict, seek out the help of a friend or staff member at the College (such as a Resident Assistant, Graduate Resident Adviser, or Residence Director), who are trained to help you work toward resolving the conflict. How do I get involved in my residence hall community life? Living in community works best when you are willing to initiate relationships with those around you. This can be challenging, especially at first, when it may seem strange or awkward to introduce yourself or knock on the door of someone you don't yet know. In the process of getting to know the people you live with and around, however, you will begin to see areas where others may need your encouragement or where you may need theirs. Seek ways to reach out and be available, both to encourage others and to receive encouragement. You may also volunteer your time to help serve your peers in the residence halls through the Community Life Council or through your Resident Assistant. Federal Work Study employment opportunities also exist in Fischer, Smith-Traber, and McManis-Evans as Hall Attendants and Night watch Desk Monitors. Contact your Residence Life staff for more information about these options. What can I bring? The following are suggestions of things to bring to campus. Some are necessities; others are optional. Remember, too, that you don't have to bring everything with you at one time. Many students choose to arrive on-campus and "scope out" their room, space limitations and roommate's preferences before purchasing items. There are many department stores in the Wheaton area, where you can buy everything from granola bars to shelving units to 3M hooks! Towels and washcloths* Blankets and pillow* Extra long sheets (36" x 80")* Cold weather clothing* (boots, coat, hat, scarf, gloves, long underwear, etc.) Hangers* Rain gear Study lamp Laundry basket & detergent Clothes drying rack Iron Swimsuit Bicycle and secure lock ("U" locks recommended) Desk supplies (sticky notes, pens, pencils, scissors, ruler, stapler, markers, etc.) Plants, posters, and other decorative items Paper shredder Flashlight & batteries Alarm clock Multiple outlet power strip with surge protector Three-prong extension cord Board games Backpack/book bag Calculator Wall or desk calendar White plastic adhesive or 3M brand hooks (may be purchased in the campus bookstore; no nails or tape may be used in Residence Hall rooms) Plate, bowl, silverware Coffee mug Storage crates for under your bed Stackable crates Stackable/hanging shoe rack Refrigerator that does not exceed 4 cubic feet in size * Necessary items What should I not bring? Pets other than fish Nails or screws to hang items on walls (students in Residence Halls may use white plastic adhesive and 3M hooks) Candles Wireless Router Fireworks Real, play, or decorative weapons (including paintball guns and water balloon launchers) Halogen lamps Microwave Hot plate Two-prong extension cords Road/construction signs Does the College provide insurance coverage for my personal belongings? Wheaton College does not provide insurance for a student's personal belongings. Please reference your homeowner's/rental insurance policy for information regarding coverage available for property away from the main residence. The below insurance companies are not endorsed by Wheaton College but are simply offered as options if your belongings are not insured under your parent's home owner's policy. www.nssinc.com www.haylor.com wwwcsiprotection.com Is my off campus housing status impacted if I defer enrollment or withdraw from Wheaton? If a student defers enrollment or withdraws from Wheaton College for the fall semester after having been granted off-campus permission, they forfeit their off campus status and will be required to live on campus for the spring semester. How can I make phone calls if I do not have a cell phone? Our residence hall rooms no longer have College provided phones. There are phones in the main lobbies and floor lounge areas where students will be able to dial 800 numbers, campus numbers and 9-911 in case of an emergency. Listed below are some communication options that students can use. These alternate methods of communication are not endorsed by Wheaton College, but are listed for your convenience.

In All Humility
from Keith Mathison Jun 15, 2010 Category: ArticlesI face something of a dilemma here that I believe C. J. Mahaney might appreciate. He has written a wonderful book in which he seeks to share insight on the practice of true humility and the conquest of pride. However, as he and all authors know, a glowing book review is a great temptation to pride for any author. I've read and (hopefully) benefited from his book on humility, but I wonder how to write a positive review without encouraging pride in the book's author -- in case he reads the review. Therein lies the dilemma. In order to avoid this conundrum, and to encourage humility in the author, it may be best to begin by pointing out what I believe to be the major flaw in the book...

Holy, Holy, Holy: Proclaiming the Perfections of God - New from Reformation Trust
from Deborah Finnamore Jun 14, 2010 Category: Reformation TrustTragically, the holiness of God has been obscured in our time, and as a result, the church's doctrine and ethics have been tarnished, entertainment has replaced worship in many places, the gospel is misunderstood and neglected, and the church assimilates itself to the culture instead of seeking to transform it through the preaching of God's Word. Holy, Holy, Holy: Proclaiming the Perfections of God is adapted from the addresses at the 2009 Ligonier Ministries National Conference. It unfolds the character of God and the holiness that sets Him apart. Here is high theology in understandable language, bringing deeper knowledge of God and promoting love for Him. Keep Reading

The book Tribes by Seth Godin is slightly larger than a CD jewel case. Yet the wisdom Godin shares in the book resonates on a MUCH bigger scale – and apparently with MANY people (the book has been the #1 bestselling leadership book on Amazon for nearly a year).
Godin suggests that anyone, anywhere can be a leader. The one thing holding most people back is the fear of failure.
Tribes isn't a step-by-step manual about being a leader. Godin explains that:
Every tribe is different. Every leader is different. The very nature of leadership is that you're not doing what's been done before. If you were, you'd be following, not leading.
Tribes is about making a choice – to lead or not to lead. Using real world examples, Godin tells stories about how famous and not so famous people made the choice to lead and the amazing things they've accomplished.
The insights in Godin's book are not profound – and maybe that's the point. For example, Godin skillfully shows time and time again why management is not the same as leadership.
Management is about manipulating resources to get a known job done … Managers manage a process they've seen before, and they react to the outside world, striving to make that process as fast and as cheap as possible. Leadership, on the other hand, is about creating a change that you believe in.
Godin writes that it takes only two things to turn any group into a tribe: a shared interest and a way to communicate.
So a leader can help increase the effectiveness of the tribe and its members by
- transforming the shared interest into a passionate goal and desire for change;
- providing tools to allow members to tighten their communication; and
- leveraging the tribe to allow it to grow and gain new members.
Most leaders focus only on the third tactic. A bigger tribe somehow equals a better tribe. In fact, the first two tactics almost always lead to more impact.
One of Godin's most valuable insights is a short narrative explaining why leadership is scarce.
Leadership is scarce because few people are willing to go through the discomfort required to lead. This scarcity makes leadership valuable. If everyone tries to lead all the time, not much happens. It's discomfort that creates the leverage that makes leadership worthwhile…
It's uncomfortable to stand up in front of strangers.
It's uncomfortable to propose an idea that might fail.
It's uncomfortable to challenge the status quo.
It's uncofmortable to rests the urge to settle.
…If you're not uncomfortable in your work as a leader, it's almost certain you're not reaching your potential as a leader.
Godin effectively demonstrates that one does not need to lead a Fortune 500 corporation to be a leader. It's an important book and I highly recommend you read it – especially if you see yourself only as a follower.
The book Tribal Leadership (by Dave Logan, John King, and Halee Fischer-Wright) picks up where Godin's Tribes stops. They are very different books. Godin's Tribes made the compelling case that anyone can lead by empowering small tribal groups. Tribal Leadership, based on a 10 year, 24,000 person study, reveals how one can empower small tribal groups.
Most people believe that innovation, quality and success is the product of great leadership. A ten year, 24,000 person study found that "tribes", naturally forming groups of between 20-150 people, and not leaders, drive success in virtually all organizations.
Great leaders understand their own limitations and know that it's not easy to change cultures, especially in larger organizations. Gimmicks, "initiatives", and massive cultural changes are often artificial and fall flat. Great leaders know that the only way to move the culture of an organization is to focus on groups – tribes – within those organizations.
Tribal Leadership describes the five stages of tribal culture. The stages are:
Stage 1 – "Life Sucks". People in stage one believe that life sucks. Period. They believe that there is nothing the individual can do to fix problems. This type of culture is found in prisons and among gangs, but amazingly, also in two percent of corporate tribes.
Stage 2 – "My Life Sucks". People in stage two know that life can be good, but believe that their life sucks. This stage represents 25 percent of all corporate culture. People in stage 2 blame others and rarely do anything voluntarily to help. If you've seen the television show The Office, you'll see a good example of a stage 2 tribe. You'll also know people around you who are stuck in this stage.
Stage 3 – "I'm Great". Stage 3 is the dominant culture in companies in the United States. People in Stage 3 think "I'm great" but there's a hidden statement that's often left unsaid – "I'm great and you aren't." People in stage 3 are driven to win, but winning is personal. They view others, including teammates and those outside their organization, as their competitors. If you look around your organizations – and even at yourself – it's highly likely that on most days –you and others are at stage 3. While stage 3 cultures can achieve great successes – stage 3 also leads to burnout. Microsoft has been operating in a stage 3 culture for a lengthy period of time.
Stage 4 – "We're great". This stage represents 22 percent of tribal cultures. This stage compares "our tribe "against other tribes. Tribes at stage 4 collaborate and put the good of the tribe above the good of the individual.The tribes within Apple are at stage 4 much of the time. Tribes at stage 4 share information and build on each other's success.
Stage 5 – "Life is great." Only two percent of tribes fall in this stage. Tribes at this stage want to make history and have produced real innovations. The team that produced the first Macintosh was stage 5. Tribes operating at stage 5 are true leaders and true innovators.
Tribal Leadership offers real and meaningful insight into how leaders can help to move their tribes and individual members of their tribes, to the next stage.
Dave Logan, one of the authors of Tribal Leadership, visited crowdSPRING last year. We had a chance to talk about how the lessons from Tribal Leadership applied to start-ups, remote teams, and social communities. Here's what Dave had to say:
1. Tribal Leadership focuses on tribes of 20 to 150 people. How can start-ups and companies with smaller teams leverage the advice from the book?
First of all, what looks like a group of people under 20 is almost always a tribe. In our company, for example, we have four partners. But by the time you add in our accountants (2), IP lawyer, book agents (2), publishers and related personnel (8), key clients (about 40), plus spouses/fiancées (4), advisors (5) etc., we're up a mid-sized tribe. Our advice to a group truly smaller than 20 is get bigger fast. A company, even a small one, needs more horsepower than a handful of people can produce. That said, the dynamics in teams are very similar to tribes. The difference is that teams are small enough that people's behaviors sometimes mold to fit group process.
2. Some companies have disparate teams who rarely meet in person. What special challenges do such teams face in elevating their culture to succeed?
We work with many companies that have teams (or tribes) that are scattered around the globe, work in different time zones, and in some cases, speak versions of English that are more different than similar. Even in these extreme cases, tribal dynamics work just the same. If possible, we advise bringing the groups together for a strategy session in which people assess their culture (on the 1-5 scale) and construct short-term projects that will accomplish important aims. Then working remotely works much better.
3. What technology companies today operate at the highest levels of performance? What's their secret?
The big differences in great technology companies compared to other "normal" companies are: (1) they tend to be young—hence not as bureaucratic; (2) they employ smart people who can think in terms of systems; and (3) they have an objective that has an element of nobility to it. Think of Apple integrating technological platforms through elegant design, or Zappos changing the world one phone call at a time. The danger for companies that don't have these three characteristics is that they put rules ahead of results, form silos that seem more important than the company, and often have people working just for the paycheck. Those are the ingredients for mediocrity.
4. What three steps can a leader take today to begin improving their team?
#1: identify the natural clusters of people—who work together.
#2: assess the cultural stage of those clusters
#3: move them to the next stage
5. Tribal Leadership talks about organizational teams. Do these lessons apply to "tribes" in social communities online?
Yes, the same dynamics work online. The only difference is the upper limit of 150 people gets a little mushy as on-line communities can get very large. But still, our ability to form meaningful relationships with people caps out in the 200 range. But as technology does more of the work for us, this upper limit will continue to move.
If you haven't read Tribal Leadership, I strongly encourage you to do so. After I read the book last year, I wrote to the authors to tell them that "No non-fiction book has ever had such a profound impact on me." I meant every word and I continue to believe this today.

I've been trying to find a solution to add extra fields (not only text, but radio-buttons as well) to the registration form, without any luck. I can't believe there's no plug-in currently out there that does this. Or is there ? What's the best way to do this ?
I've tried 'cimy extra user fields' and 'wp user manager', but none of them did the job.

- Official Site: Bang-Olufsen.com
- Specs: 26"; 16:9; 36.15 lbs; 1080i; 1200:1 image contrast; 178–degree viewing
- Company: Bang & Olufsen
The first thing you need to know about Bang & Olufsen high-definition TVs is that they are not cheap. While you can certainly get more for your money elsewhere, B&O (and the BeoVision 8) offers one-of-a-kind design and elite features that cater specifically to the upper echelon of flat-panel purchasers. This 26-inch, cutting-edge unit comes complete with the famous styling and super exclusivity that Bang & Olufsen customers crave, but its lack of size makes it more suited to office or bedroom use, rather than as an anchor for your entertainment center -- like the BeoVison 4.
As with all Bang & Olufsen electronics, the BeoVision 8 is masterfully crafted. There is a stunning cleanness to it, with modern edging and smooth lines that are uninterrupted by a giant corporate logo or sticker. The bottom portion of the unit houses the LED light indicator and a speaker grille -- that's it. At first touch, you may be slightly put off by the somewhat rubbery feel of the BeoVision 8, but this is done for a reason. Unlike the glossy surfaces of most other LCD models, this particular TV will not constantly attract dust. While the design is a stroke of genius, the actual operation of the TV is a total juxtaposition to the simplistic beauty of its exterior. Setting up components with the BeoVision 8 is way harder than it needs to be. You have to slosh through what seems like menu after menu to configure your game console, DVD player and cable box, and with only one audio input, you can't even connect a computer and a gaming system at the same time.
Connectivity hang-ups persist with the limited number of inputs that the BeoVision 8 has on its back panel. To have only a single HDMI port might be understandable on a $500 TV, but not on an aggressively priced one like this. The options don't increase too much when it comes to picture tweaking capability, as you will only find the basic tuning choices up for control here. The screen itself has a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels, which rules out the ability for 1080p full HD, and that is a major disappointment. If you are a serious gamer, you will want to take heed of the BeoVision 8's ruthlessly accurate response time. For fast-paced games and competitive online matches, this unit clocks in at fewer than 6 milliseconds for inputs. In the end, this is a case of phenomenal design and concept with solid audiovisual results, but just one too many shortcomings to consider this among the best flat-panel TVs on the market. If it is bang for your buck that you are looking for, you can do much better elsewhere.

Date: February 05 2013
NEW DELHI: India has dramatically tightened its laws on sexual assault and trafficking following the horrific gang rape and murder of a young woman in New Delhi in December.
Women's groups complained that the measures fast-tracked into law on Sunday had not gone far enough, because they failed to outlaw marital rape and deal with the impunity enjoyed by members of the armed forces.
But other activists said the new measures marked one of the most significant changes to laws protecting women in India's history.
Because parliament is in recess, the government pushed through the changes in an ordinance approved by the cabinet on Friday and signed into law by President Pranab Mukherjee on Sunday. They come into effect immediately, but will need to be ratified by parliament within six months.
''This shows the intention of the government to take the issue very seriously,'' said Bhuwan Ribhu, an activist who has spent the past decade fighting trafficking and child labour. ''We now have to ensure this gets translated into law [by parliament] and the law gets enforced.''
A high-level committee headed by retired justice J.S.Verma was set up after the angry protests that followed the rape. Many of its recommendations have now been accepted. In particular, rape law has been changed to allow for stiff penalties for all types of sexual assault.
In the past, rape was defined as penetration only, and anything short of that fell in the category of criminal assault on a woman with ''intent to outrage her modesty'', an offence that carried a light penalty and was almost never enforced. Separate offences with strict punishments have been introduced for stalking, voyeurism, stripping a woman or carrying out an acid attack.
For the first time, trafficking has been outlawed in India, with stiff penalties both for the trafficker and someone employing people who have been trafficked.
In effect, that means anyone employing children as maids in India - a not insignificant proportion of the population - could be jailed for at least five years, while the vast network of ''placement agents'' who bring children from poor villages to work in India's towns and cities could be put away for at least 14 years.
A police officer or other public servant found to have been involved in trafficking would be jailed for life.
The committee had recommended that members of the armed forces accused of rape be tried under civilian law. It had also recommended that MPs charged with rape and other serious crimes be forced to resign their posts and that marital rape be outlawed. All those recommendations were ignored, although the government insisted that it is open to possible amendments when the law reaches parliament.
''The reluctance to address the accountability for the police or for the army is a problem,'' said Meenakshi Ganguly of Human Rights Watch. ''Any state that wants to address this [violence against women] will have to deal with accountability.''
Five men pleaded not guilty on Saturday to charges of rape and murder in relation to the December incident. A specially convened court is expected to begin hearing evidence on Tuesday. A sixth suspect, who is 17, could face a maximum 3-year sentence.

College Hockey:Clarkson President Weighs in on Pending D-III Legislation
POTSDAM — Clarkson president Tony Collins became the latest school president to weigh in on the pending Division III NCAA legislation that would force "play-up" schools to stop awarding athletic scholarships.
The four Division I hockey schools affected — St. Lawrence, Colorado College, Clarkson and Rensselaer — have all vowed to fight the legislation, which is due for a vote of the full 400-plus membership at the NCAA Convention in January.
The text of Collins' statement:
"Clarkson University is joining St. Lawrence University, Colorado College and Rensselaer in publicly expressing its deep concern about proposed NCAA legislation that would eliminate Division I athletic scholarships for student athletes from eight colleges that offer mostly Division III sports.
"We were quite surprised that the NCAA Division III Presidents Council forwarded this recommendation to its membership. The Presidents Council has acknowledged that this recommendation, unlike every other element of their proposal, was not unanimous and was vigorously debated. Further, an NCAA-sponsored focus group study of 43 Division III schools stated that, 'Many felt that institutions with already established multidivisional programs should not be restricted.'
"While we are opposed to the recommendation, we commend the Presidents Council for inviting input from the eight colleges who would be affected by this legislation. The Council is asking the schools to respond prior to an October meeting where it can act to remove this recommendation from its proposal. Clarkson will make its case to the Presidents Council on why this recommendation is unnecessary in reinforcing the Division III Student/Athlete Philosophy.
"The first reason for our opposition is that athletic scholarships enable Clarkson University to attract student/athletes who can both compete at the Division I level, and benefit from a Clarkson education. Their graduation rates and success after graduation are testament to their abilities as students as well as their abilities on the ice. Among our hockey alumni are individuals who have become business, science and technology leaders, as well as professional hockey players and managers. Their experience confirms that Clarkson University has been able to attract Division I student/athletes who receive the full benefit of a Clarkson education.
"The Presidents Council's recommendation suggests that it is incompatible for a school to have Division I programs that grant athletic scholarships alongside Division III programs that do not. However, at Clarkson, students who are involved in these athletic programs are treated equitably and all benefit from a philosophy of academics and athletics that promotes their total development. The presence of a Division I program at Clarkson in no way diminishes our commitment to Division III values and philosophy.
"A second reason for Clarkson's opposition is that in 1982 the NCAA 'grandfathered' its approval of these Division I offerings in Division III schools. They did so in recognition of the strong traditions, pride and competitive spirit that these programs brought to the schools. Indeed, Clarkson has a long and deep history that includes competitive Division I athletics.
"Based on the 1982 NCAA ruling, Clarkson has made strategic investments in these programs in good faith, including the development of a women's Division I program that promotes gender equity. The NCAA sends a very troubling message if it removes its approval, thereby undermining investments made in valued athletic programs and people."

Protester challenges Twitter subpoena
Prosecutor might not get access to content
AN OCCUPY WALL STREET protester and journalist whose Twitter traffic was demanded by the Manhattan district attorney is challenging the subpoena.
The account belongs to Malcolm Harris, who goes by the name of @destructuremal on Twitter. The Manhattan district attorney's office is after his user information, email address and three months' worth of tweets from around the time that the Occupy Wall Street protests started in New York City.
However, Harris is challenging the subpoena, and said at the time that he had the support of Twitter and a week long grace period in which to do that. Now that week is over, and his lawyer, Martin Stolar has filed a motion to quash the subpoena.
#NLG atny Martin Stolar motions to quash subpoena sniffing for mos. of tweets and private data from @destructuremal. ow.ly/8U3wF— NationalLawyersGuild (@NLGnews) February 6, 2012
National Lawyers Guild member Stolar is arguing that the request is too invasive, too broad and could be used as a fishing expedition for investigative purposes, according to a blog on the New York Times web site.
His motion says, "Such use of a subpoena cannot be countenanced by the court, and the subpoena must therefore be quashed."
We have asked for more information. µ

Thanks - I read your patch and it made lot of sense - so I applied it. I did not test it nor did I check on books the formula used to build the bezier path for the last bit of the arc, so I hope you did. Ahm - just a quick note - before committing, I sligthly simplified the formula used for F - not that I changed it (unless I made a typo) - just did some trivial algebraic/trigonometric simplifications.
