The Office of Housing and Residential Life
New Student Frequently Asked Questions
New Student Housing Selection
In early June new students who have submitted a housing deposit will receive an email directing them to complete their housing agreement. Part of that agreement includes the roommate matching questionnaire. Once completed, students will be able to search for compatible roommates based on the answers to the roommate matching questions and send messages to each other in order to form groups.
Students will be assigned a selection date and time between July 13 and 17, 2015. At that assigned time they will be able to log into the system to select their assignment for the fall.
Students may select as individuals, or select as part of a group. Specific instructions on completing selection will be sent out in June.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: In what order do students select housing?
A: The selection order for incoming students is determined by the date the student submitted their housing deposit. The earlier deposit is submitted, the earlier in the process the student will select their housing.
Q: When Is Move-In for new students?
A: Fall move in for new students is August 26, 2015. To ensure a smooth move in process we will assign each student a time block to move in based on their housing assignment. The tentative schedule is below. Please note that changes may occur later in the summer.
Q: How do first year students get their housing assignment?
A: First Year students will receive an email in June directing them to complete their housing agreement. This agreement includes the roommate matching questionnaire. Students will be able to them search the database and send messages to students they think would make a good match. Students will then select their housing assignment online between July 13 through July 17, 2015.
Q: How do transfer students get their housing assignment?
A: Transfer students will receive an email in June directing them to their housing agreement. Part of this agreement will ask for their requests for the housing assignment. Our office will place transfer students in available spaces. Every effort will be made to assign transfer students into our upperclass residence halls.
Q: If my student has a medical need for a specific housing placement what should I do?
A: Wentworth does have a process for students who need housing accommodations. You can find the information on this process under the Parents and Families section of our website found here. Please note that all documentation must be received by June 12, 2015 for consideration.
Q: What types of appliances can we bring into the residence halls?
A: Students can bring a microwave and a small refrigerator to campus. Refrigerators need to be 4.4 cubic feet or below. They may also bring any single cup coffee maker that has an automatic shut off. We do not allow any kind of hot plate, pressure cooker, or any item with an open flame. For a full list of prohibited items, please visit the Prospective Student section of our website found here.
Q: Where do First Year Students Live?
A: First year students live in either Baker Hall or Evans Way/Tudbury Hall. Older students and transfer students may request to live in our upperclass buildings based on availability. Transfer students can submit preferences for assignment in our upperclass residence halls. You can view our residential communities here.
Q: What kind of meal plan do first year students have?
A: All residential students are required to purchase a meal plan. Since first year students are not provided a kitchen, all first year students are required to purchase the "A" meal plan of $1495.00 per semester. Transfer students who are assigned to upperclass housing maybe select from any of our meal plan options. You can see our housing and meal plan rates here.
Q: Can students have cars on campus?
A: First year students cannot have a car on campus. For additional vehicle and parking questions please contact the Student Service Center at 617-989-4020.
Q: Where can I find information on housing costs?
A: Information on housing and meal plan costs can be found on our website here.

Most ancient texts were written by men. It is important to remember this.
The writers made sure that men were always the heroes, the powerful ones-- the
important ones. Women always seem to lay in the background. However, we must
not blame this solely on the writers. Historically, women have not been treated as
equals. One cannot help but observe that in the specific area of family life a
widespread social and cultural tradition has considered women's role to be
exclusively that of wife and mother. As a wife, a woman was expected to obey
and serve her husband. Men saw women as, what they believed to be, the fulfillment
of God's intention: "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a
helper as his partner" (Genesis 2.18).
Despite these biases, women play a central and crucial role in many
historical texts. Even if the men are always the heroes, behind every good man
is a great woman.
Let's explore these two great women: Penelope from Homer's Odyssey,
and Sarah from Genesis. They are both shadowed by the greatness of their husbands.
However, if we read carefully, we can make them come out of their hiding place
and let their true beauty shine!
Sarah is the faithful and loving wife of Abraham. God favors Abraham and
makes great plans for him. God promises Abraham that he will become "a numerous
people" (Genesis 17). However, becoming "a numerous people" is impossible
without the aid of women. Thus, Sarah plays an important role in God's historical
Sarah plays an important role in Abraham's life too. She is a devoted wife
that seems willing to do anything for her husband. When they are about to enter
Egypt (Genesis 12.10) Abraham says to Sarah, " I know well that you are a woman
beautiful in appearance; and when the Egyptians see you, they will say, 'This is his
wife'; t...

Cable car (cablecarril) museum in Chilecito - a cable car constructed by an joint english/german venture pre WW1 in 1904 that brought minerals from high in the Cordillera from Minera 'La Mejicana' at 4600m down to Chilecito at 1075m elevation over only 35km.
Minera 'La Mejicana' some 3500m higher in the cordillera. The 'cablecarril' had 9 stations over the 35km route some with steam powered engines driving the cable on its journey to the mountains. An amazing engineering project for its time!
'falta poco!' only 4000 clicks to Ushuaia apparently...well the direct way anyway. For us probably much more still!
Roadside shrines to 'Guachito Gil' provide a nice shady spot for a break with picnic tables and all. Gracias a Guachito Gil!
'Facturas' an Argentinian pastry that we love. Three for breakfast and another Three for second breakfast! They come in all sorts of varieties but most commonly with a creamy custard filling with/or without jam and others are filled with the sweet dulce de leche
'La Cuesta de Miranda'...perfect riding: minimal traffic, one lane curving road cut into the rock wall, canyons and this view...!
Ali near the top of 'La Cuesta de Miranda' and a beautiful steep canyon carved through grey rock on the left
A prickly proposition. Flowering cactus in our desert camp
More crumpled red and white rock just out of Huaco, Anna is actually holding her helmet on with one hand to stop it blowing away as the winds were ferocious on this day
'Cuesta de Huaco' leaving before sunrise to beat the heat
el rio Jachal, the road to Rodeo
El Rio de Jachal on the road to Rodeo
'El Dique Cuesta del Viento'
Apparently it gets windy around here! Like every afternoon up to 100km per hour
Windsurfers on 'el Dique Cuesta del Viento' at 1800m with the snowcapped Andes on one side and eroded red and cream sandstone mountains on the other and on the turquoise blue waters of the man made reservoir of glacial melt waters...brrr chilly!. like a cool blend of the Andes, Utah and the coast to go windsurfing.
Another break in the rack, this time near San Jose de Jachal. Looks slightly nasty, but this time reinforced with 'reo' rod inside. Juan from the municipalidad in Rodeo spent over an hour on this project of welding but didn't want anything in return for his time and work. gracias amigo! that's Argentina for you
(sorry for the blurry pic) Ali, Rolando and Anna relaxed and wrinkly after our soak in the Pismanta hot baths. Rolando is the father of Ivana another biketraveller and offered us some great Argentinian hospitality in Rodeo
Valle de Iglesia
Meeting the dutchies Celia and Frank in Iglesia coming from Mendoza the same route as we were taking...sweet couple, some good info exchanged and then in our own directions
Two cars in two days on this lonely stretch of bad ripio, and bad winds between Iglesia and Calingasta but spectacular views of the polychrome cordillera
Folded polychrome hills of the pre-cordillera near Calingasta
After Barreal the scenery cranked up a notch or two
More 'scenic Andean butter' and beautiful riding alongside the snowcapped cordillera
"cookie time?" and Mendoza is on the road signs
Puna wildcamp between Barreal and Uspallata...bad ripio, worse headwinds meant a tough day but we still managed to get a little shelter from the wind
Feeding the 'mate' addiciton
A vast smear of scenic Andean butter
Men in Bike - four French lads on a 10 month journey on bike, the South American leg: Buenos Aires to Lima, so about to cross the Andes for the first time. We camped together in Uspallata and had a good night of some beer and stories with them.
Climbing out from the valley of Uspallata...'7 Years in Tibet' country (the film was made around here)
'Cerro Aconcagua' (peak in the centre) at 6962m, the roof of the Americas and the highest peak in the world outside of the Himalayas seen here from the east
Still climbing, in fact very steeply to the very end at 2900m
..and then the descent
Guanaco wonderland in the pre-cordillera
'los caracoles de Villavicencio' dropping us down to the historic hotspring resort of Villavicencio
A climbing boys dream...pity I don't climb...well i'll just enjoy my mate then! 'La Palestra' at Guillermo and Ligia's home in Mendoza
Anna, Guillermo, Juan Cristobal and the climbing girls working the 'woodie' on a friday afternoon

Party Princess (Paperback)
Usually Ships in 1-5 Days
Princesses just want to have fun.
. . . And Mia does too, despite the fact that the student government over which she presides is suddenly broke. But Grandmere's got a wacky scheme to raise the money, catapult Mia to theatrical fame, and link her romantically with an eligible teen bachelor who's not her boyfriend. No wonder Michael seems to think she's a psycho, or worse: not much fun. Is it possible that Mia, soon-to-be star of the stage, president of the student body, and future ruler of Genovia, doesn't know how to party?

We have a quality range of natural stone and engineered mosaics in a wide variety of colours, sizes and styles. They have been used since the Ancient Roman times when they were installed in famous bath houses and are still a popular option for contemporary designs today. They are an extremely versatile option as they can be used as part of a mosaic kitchen wall design or within a splash back or trendy border design. Interior designers, homeowners and architects use them to provide the wow factor in both domestic and commercial environments
Decorative and Functional
The concept of individual pieces of material fixed on a wall or floor to create a pattern is not a new one. Wall mosaics have been used in all manner of ways throughout the years. From multi-coloured ceramic varieties to the pastel shades of natural stone, they have provided a unique decorative feature within a number of areas. Modern versions are attached to mesh sheets for easy, flexible tiling. These sheets can be cut with ease and attached to surfaces in a range of different situations. When using mesh sheets you can apply them on to curved walls and even sloping floor surfaces, for example in a wet room.

I just installed a WordPress install successfully, and had the admin password emailed to my inbox. The next day my laptop crashed and I lost only the previous day's email.
I tried to do a lost password request but get the following error:
the e-mail could not be sent.
possible reason: your host may have disabled the mail() function...
I spoke to my webhost and they told me to use SMTP instead of PHP Mail()
That's fine, except I can't just add a plug-in; because I don't have access to the WP-Admin area right now. (Because I don't have a password)
Is there somewhere that I can just change a string in an existing flat file.
I searched the help files here on WP Support and I noticed some people mentioning to put something in PHP.INI, but no one ever says what to put there.
Bearing in mind I cannot use a plugin right now, in what file should I specify my SMTP server?
Thanks in advance for your help!

I love this program. I have always wanted to compost, but knew myself well enough that I didn't want to deal with a compost pile in my yard. I'm not on top of things enough for that! And I'm not much of a gardener, either. This way, I feel good about doing something to make things better. I personally have noticed we're putting out fewer trash bags--probably about a tall kitchen bag less every week or so, and that makes me very happy. I'm seeing the results right here. I also use our compost as a barometer for how much fruits and veggies we're eating. Thanks!
Christine D., University Park, MD
"Compost Cab has been an indispensable partner in creating and implementing our food waste composting pilot. The 50 participant households love it, and we've captured more than 8 tons of food scraps in the past year. In fact, it's been so successful that we're planning to triple the size of our program for 2013!"
Chuck Wilson, Program Director, Small Town Energy Program for University Park (STEP-UP)
"It's been really great getting started -- I have my whole household trained to use our counter compost container, and my 8-year old is responsible for emptying it into our bin on the porch. He loves it, as he is the one who convinced me that we had to start doing it."
Maggie Biscarr, subscriber, Petworth, Washington, DC
"I've been composting with Compost Cab since they started in 2010, and I've never looked back! As an avid cook, I produce more than my fair share of food scraps, and I love that they're being put to good use. They just make it so easy -- it's a terrific service! Worth every penny. And a small price to help make change."
Kate Hill, Washington, DC, charter subscriber
- Large events like the #DNCinPHL are a major source of food waste. Happy to hear about their #compost efforts @whyy t.co/XuS279avbB
- As more and more people make food waste prevention a priority, we can accomplish this goal before 2030! t.co/rWgs78URAf

I have a Brother DCP-145C printer installed and it does not print black ink. I tried running diagnostics and test pages, the driver is installed properly. It doesn't matter if I send the data from the pc, or use the scanning function. What could be the problem? Printer is brand new by the way, should i return it?
Check if:
If the printer stood in some storage facility for a long time the ink can dry and/or the heads can be clotted. Try using the cleaning function. If this doesn´t work you can also wet a paper tissue and put the ink cartridge on it to see if there is some ink coming out of it. But be sure that the tissue is just minimal wet and not dripping of water ;-)
When this doen´t bring up some color, it might be the head. I don´t know how the Brother DCP-145C is built so I can´t tell you if you can replace the head by yourself. So, you maybe should use the varanty. You also could try the e-mail function on the support site of brother. They might give you the proper solution because they (like exwyz said) confirmed the problem. I already used this function to get support for some fax-devices. It worked fine an I got my problem solved with theyr help ;-)
I have sent back to Brother Service Center twice already. Brother has confirmed that the print head is the problem. Met someone having same problem on DCP 165.

|Program Description:
Madrid, the capital of Spain, is a city with a relatively short history in comparison to other European capitals. Selected to become the principal city in the second part of the 16th century, Madrid has become a modern, diverse and important city with more than five million inhabitants. The culture of the city is thriving, with the center of the city crowded until very late at night. Known for its nocturnal life, the majority of restaurants, taperias, clubs and music venues are open until early morning.
Madrid has experienced much growth. There are various modern districts and new buildings and offices, but locals can still find much of the old Madrid and its buildings integrated in the city. Famous landmarks and museums have made the city extremely attractive to tourists, and the financial activity makes Madrid very important to the country's economics. Among the most famous attractions in Madrid is the Museo del Prado that contains numerous famous paintings from artists like El Greco, Velázquez, and Goya. The collection is so large that only half of the collection is displayed at a time. Other famous places to visit are Parque del Buen Retiro, the Plaza Mayor, la Puerta del Sol and the Palacio Real.
The program makes its home within the Universidad Complutense de Madrid — one of Spain's oldest, largest and most prestigious universities. Marquette University faculty member, Dr. Todd Hernández, accompanies the group and provides on-the-ground support. As a student, you'll be able to integrate yourself into the campus life through daily contact with Spanish faculty and staff. You'll also have complete usage of Complutense's facilities - libraries, computers, sports fields and cafeterias, as well as cultural and academic events sponsored by the university.
The program begins with a short orientation led by the Marquette faculty director to orient students to the city, culture, and language. Students are required to enroll in two courses (6 credits) and to participate in the weekend excursions to other regions of Spain.
An orientation will be held prior to departure at Marquette on Friday, April 1st from 5-7:30 p.m. as well as an on-site orientation upon arrival.

Pamela Anderson Named TV's Sexiest Woman Ever
Is reaching her 40s, Pamela Anderson might feel proud that she's still considered sexy. The former "Baywatch" hottie has been voted TV's Sexiest Woman Ever in a poll compiled by Internet service provider AOL.
Topped the list on the No. 1 spot, the website's editors praised Pammy as "A completely knock-out blonde who wears a bathing suit and bounces around as she saves lives - Pamela Anderson took bodacious to a new level."
Following her close at 2nd spot is Farrah Fawcett, thanks to her performance in TV series "Charlie's Angels" (1976-1977) in which she played one of the sexy crime-fighting trio, a role that made her an international sex symbol during the 70s.
Lynda Carter, better known as the original Wonder Woman, comes 3rd with the likes of Heather Locklear (Melrose Place) and Eva Longoria (Desperate Housewives) rounding out the Top 5 at No. 4 and 5 respectively. Diana Rigg, best known for her portrayal of Emma Peel in "The Avengers," scores the 6th spot, followed behind by Barbara Eden of "I Dream of Jeannie" at No. 7.
The last three spots; 8th, 9th, and 10th, are secured by Katherine Heigl (Grey's Anatomy), Catherine Bach (The Dukes of Hazzard), and Tina Louise (Gilligan's Island).

AbstractThe objective of the Phase 1 and 2 SBIR Program, Topic N04-263, "Advanced Multi-Band Electronic Surveillance Measure (ESM) Antenna," is to develop a multi-band, lightweight ESM antenna, includes communications intelligence (COMINT), electronic intelligence (ELINT) and communications systems and data links, and is capable of being installed on multiple, unmanned air vehicle (UAV) platforms. The antenna may be installed at multiple locations on the air vehicle, such that they can be coherently processed to create an interferometer to measure angle of arrival of emitters. Revolutionary antenna technologies are sought that will be lightweight, provide a wide area RF coverage, and be capable of interfacing with existing and planned UAV ECM/Electronic Intelligence (ELINT) systems. The real challenge is to preserve the gain and coverage characteristics of multiple antennas in a single integrated package. It has been suggested that the full frequency coverage desired is 100 MHz to 18 GHz with an objective of 20 MHz to 40 GHz. Further it would be desirable to be able to transmit over the 20 MHz to 2 GHz frequency range. The system should have a higher gain as the angle of reception approaches the horizon, a 1/R² space loss function. The antenna shall be circularly polarized, thus being able to operate with vertically and horizontally polarized signals also. A single connector shall be used for the full frequency coverage. The VSWR shall not exceed 2:1 over the required frequency band. The primary requirements driven by use on UAV's are: form factor, (shape, size, depth), weight, aerodynamic drag, cost, structural capabilities, and RF performance.

Rising CO2 levels making fish crazy!
by ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies on 16 Jan 2012
Parrotfish Chlorurus enneacanthus - rising CO2 is impacting on nervous systems of fish. ARC Centre of Excellence Coral Reef Studies ©
The Earth's carbon dioxide emissions may be affecting the brains and central nervous system of sea fishes with serious consequences for their survival, an international scientific team has found.
Carbon dioxide concentrations predicted to occur in the ocean by the end of this century will interfere with fishes' ability to hear, smell, turn and evade predators, says Professor Phillip Munday of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies and James Cook University.
'For several years our team have been testing the performance of baby coral fishes in sea water containing higher levels of dissolved CO2 – and it is now pretty clear that they sustain significant disruption to their central nervous system, which is likely to impair their chances of survival,' Prof Munday says.
In their latest paper, published in the journal 'Nature Climate Change', Prof Munday and colleagues report world-first evidence that high CO2 levels in sea water disrupts a key brain receptor in fish, causing marked changes in their behavior and sensory ability.
'We've found that elevated CO2 in the oceans can directly interfere with fish neurotransmitter functions, which poses a direct and previously unknown threat to sea life,' he says.
Prof Munday and his colleagues began by studying how baby clown and damsel fishes performed alongside their predators in CO2-enriched water. They found that, while the predators were somewhat affected, the baby fish suffered much higher rates of attrition.
'Our early work showed that the sense of smell of baby fish was harmed by higher CO2 in the water – meaning they found it harder to locate a reef to settle on or detect the warning smell of a predator fish. But we suspected there was much more to it than the loss of ability to smell.'
The team then examined whether fishes' sense of hearing – used to locate and home in on reefs at night, and avoid them during the day – was affected. 'The answer is, yes it was. They were confused and no longer avoided reef sounds during the day. Being attracted to reefs during daylight would make them easy meat for predators.'
Other work showed the fish also tended to lose their natural instinct to turn left or right – an important factor in schooling behavior which also makes them more vulnerable, as lone fish are easily eaten by predators.
'All this led us to suspect it wasn't simply damage to their individual senses that was going on – but rather, that higher levels of carbon dioxide were affecting their whole central nervous system.'
The team's latest research shows that high CO2 directly stimulates a receptor in the fish brain called GABA-A, leading to a reversal in its normal function and over-excitement of certain nerve signals.
While most animals with brains have GABA-A receptors, the team considers the effects of elevated CO2 are likely to be most felt by those living in water, as they have lower blood CO2 levels normally. The main impact is likely to be felt by some crustaceans and by most fishes, especially those which use a lot of oxygen.
Prof Munday said that around 2.3 billion tons of human CO2 emissions dissolve into the world's oceans every year, causing changes in the chemical environment of the water in which fish and other species live.
'We've now established it isn't simply the acidification of the oceans that is causing disruption – as is the case with shellfish and plankton with chalky skeletons – but the actual dissolved CO2 itself is damaging the fishes' nervous systems.'
The work shows that fish with high oxygen consumption are likely to be most affected, suggesting the effects of high CO2 may impair some species worse than others – possibly including important species targeted by the world's fishing industries.
The team's latest paper 'Near-future CO2 levels alter fish behavior by interfering with neurotransmitter function' by Göran E. Nilsson, Danielle L. Dixson, Paolo Domenici, Mark I. McCormick, Christina Sørensen, Sue-Ann Watson, and Philip L. Munday appears in the journal Nature Climate Change.

Protocol additional to the Geneva Conventions of 12 August 1949, and relating to the Adoption of an Additional Distinctive Emblem (Protocol III), 8 December 2005
of 2007
Article 7 - Dissemination
Although with some modifications, Article 7
of Additional Protocol III borrows the language of Article 83
, paragraph 1, of Additional Protocol I.[59]The obligation of dissemination contained in these provisions is considered a necessary measure to ensure awareness of the Conventions and their Protocols: it fundamentally contributes to their respect as well as to their concrete implementation.
The emblem's role in the protection of medical personnel, units and transports explains the responsibility of the High Contracting Parties to disseminate the rules of Additional Protocol III in order to ensure that the red crystal is recognized and identified, as much as the red cross and the red crescent, as a protective sign in time of armed conflict. The dissemination of these rules must be as widespread as possible. Additional Protocol III explicitly reminds the Parties that dissemination-related activities must be carried out in times of peace for members of the armed forces, who are the first to be involved in the conduct of hostilities and in the protection of civilian objects and persons not or no longer taking part in hostilities. However, the Protocol also obliges States "to encourage" the study of these rules by the entire civilian population.
As the
Commentary on Protocol I
note 17, pp. 960-961, § 3369) points out, Article 83
, paragraph 1, essentially reaffirms the Conventions' previous rules on that subject (see in particular Articles 47
of the four Geneva Conventions respectively). Additional Protocol II also contains an obligation related to dissemination, but its wording is more cursory: Article 19
"This Protocol shall be disseminated as widely as possible."
On the meaning of the obligation to "encourage" study of the rules of international humanitarian law by the civilian population, see the
Commentary on Protocol I
, above
note 17, pp. 965-967, §§ 3377-3381, for examples of practical measures that may be adopted in this respect.

Reba McEntire's Gift from God
Reba McEntire's Gift from God
The popular country music artist talks about the day she almost didn't pursue her singing career.
It was a beautiful spring morning when Mama and I set off from our ranch in Oklahoma for Nashville, where I was going to audition for a recording contract. I was 20 years old, well-prepared vocally, ready to take a chance on the dream of a lifetime.
But as the hillsides rolled by, resplendent with the whites and pinks of dogwood and redbud blossoms, I felt a creeping uneasiness. The closer we got to the country music capital, the more I tried to prolong the trip, making Mama detour for some sightseeing, then for a snack, then for anything I could think of.
Finally I yelled, "Stop!" and Mama pulled the big blue Ford into a Dairy Queen on the side of the highway and we went inside.
As I toyed with my mountain of ice cream, I didn't have to explain I was scared. Mama knew me too well. "Reba Nell," she said, adding the Nell for gentle emphasis, "we can turn around right now and go on back home if that's what you want, and I'll understand. The music business is not for everyone."
I looked at Mama across the melting swirl of my sundae. She wasn't pushing me. But when she was my age, Mama would have given just about anything to have had the opportunity I was getting a chance at now. I wondered if that was what was confusing me.
We'd always had a special bond. Maybe it was because of my singing. Music had gone way back in Mama's life. But right out of high school she had to take a teaching job, working in a two-room schoolhouse. Then she married, worked as an assistant to the school superintendent, and did all the bookkeeping on our ranch while raising four kids.
Mama and I were middle kids, both the third of four children. Being a middle kid, I was always looking for attention. I was a tomboy, doing everything my older brother, Pake, did. "Anything you can do I can do better!" was our sibling motto, whether it was throwing rocks and doing chin-ups, or riding horses and roping. I was out to be the best, to get the attention. Then I learned to sing.
I remember in the second grade, my music teacher, pretty Mrs. Kanton, helped me learn "My Favorite Things" from The Sound of Music . When I went home and sang it for Mama, her eyes met mine and just sort of glowed. It tickled me to think I could make Mama react like that, and to hear adults say that I was gifted.
That's what my grandmother—Mama's mother and my namesake—used to say when I was growing up. But she called it a special gift, a gift from God. I was almost as close to her as I was to Mama. Grandma used to take me fishing at a pond on her place.
We never did catch much, but we liked to throw in our lines and sit on the pond dam while Grandma told stories, mostly from the Bible. She told me about David, Moses and Daniel, and the special gifts that God had given them, like courage and leadership and prophecy. In fact, David was a songwriter.
I probably learned as much of my Bible going fishing with Grandma as I did in Sunday school. She taught me gospel songs and hymns so I could sing to her. "Reba," she'd say, "God gives all of us our own special gifts, and he's given you yours for a reason. Now you have to learn to use it."
The cherry was sliding down the whipped cream peak on my sundae. I looked outside at the glowing Dairy Queen cone rotating slowly, almost as if it were sitting on a record turntable. Mama was nursing a cup of coffee and watching the traffic flash by. She was not about to rush me.

A Novel Benefit Gala
The basement of Fino Ristorante Italiano Wall Street was converted into a gambling den for the Great Gatsby Gambling Gala. Some played blackjack and craps while others played in a Texas Hold 'Em tournament.
"Royal Pains" star Jill Flint play host for Friday night's benefit, which raised funds for the United Cerebral Palsy of New York City.
Growing up, Ms. Flint's longtime baby-sitter had a son with cerebral palsy. "I'm here for him," she said.
In a black sequined flapper dress, she had very clearly Gatsbied up. However with a quick survey of the room, she began to compare and despair. "I should have worn pearls. And a headband. Do you know how hard it is to find a good headband?"
Many of the guests had indeed found them, and gave the era their best shot with glitter, boas and feathers galore.
The actress, who lives in Brooklyn and whose television show shoots mostly there and in Long Island, said the gambling part of the festivities held little appeal. During a Vegas blackjack expedition 10 years ago, she said, "I broke even for two hours. And I was so bored, so I decided to put it all down, and I lost it. Gone!"
Edward R. Matthews, CEO of UCP/NYC, said the event was designed to cultivate a younger generation of patrons. For him, the Gatsby appeal is about recalling "an era of gentle civility."
Christopher Laul, principal of architecture firm HOK and chairman of the gala, hadn't actually read the book, but, he said, "I'm all about the spirit of the book, which is living the good life, with the drama."
In a very Prohibition-era manner, gala Co-Chairman John Lombardo, a vice president at Bank of New York Mellon, and his wife, Karen, ate dinner in a candlelit room off the wine cellar with friends. In anticipation of the benefit, "We actually rented 'The Great Gatsby' last week," he said. "I think any scene with Robert Redford was my favorite."
Gala Co-Chairman Thomas O'Halloran, a vice president at Structure Tone, said he felt "a lot less separation anxiety when he knew his money was going to a charity rather than a casino." He, however, wasn't Gatsbied up. "It's hard enough to dress appropriately for 2011, let alone the '20s," he said.

Losing Fuel Efficiency in Winter
Columnist Jonathan Welsh answers readers' questions about automobiles
Q: I have a 6-month-old Honda CRV LX w/AWD. This is a great little car but the mileage seems to be slipping. I know all new cars take some time to break in but the mpg has slipped from 25.3 to 24.
—Matt Whittaker, Boston
A: It could be reformulated fuel or "winter fuel" whose additives often hurt fuel economy. But it could also be the weather. It takes your car longer to reach its optimum operating temperature when the weather is cold, so you lose efficiency. Motor oil flows more slowly in cold weather, which causes more resistance inside your engine, at least until it warms up.
Q: Our 2010 Nissan Rogue has keyless entry and ignition, which is a pain. You need the key on your person to unlock the door, and the key must be in the car to start the ignition. At places with valet parking, we often forget to leave the key in the car. What are we missing?
—Toby Wolfe, Pittsburgh
A: If you are missing something, I think I'm missing it, too. After test-driving many cars with so-called smart keys that don't need to be in the ignition lock, I don't see the advantage. I find it is harder to keep track of the smart keys. I think there are two main problems: the valet-parking situation and the fact that driving with a big, clunky key fob in your pocket can cause discomfort. So the key often ends up in the cup holder, where it may be left behind inadvertently.
Q: I am soon to be the mother of three children under the age of two and need to purchase a new automobile that can comfortably accommodate three car seats. I need a vehicle with four-wheel drive that handles safely in snow and ice. I realize a minivan would probably be my best bet, but I would rather not drive one…at least not yet! Can you provide recommendations for vehicles with easily accessible third-row seating that drive well in winter climates? I should also mention that I'm petite and will need to be able to reach the backseat from the ground.
—Anne Gallagher, Cohasset, Mass.
A: Yes, a van would be the easiest answer. But it is hard for some of us to like a minivan. So you might try the new Ford Explorer. My family tried one out and liked it mainly for its easy all-around access. Other crossovers like the GMC Acadia also work well and can be ordered with two seats in the second row and a pass-through aisle to the third row. What you should do once you find a few vehicles that seem suitable is test drive them and bring your kids' car seats to make sure they fit well.

In a recent comment about station wagons and hatchbacks I mentioned how certain vehicles handle the challenge of carrying large radio-controlled model airplanes (one of my beloved hobbies). A reader who also flies model planes sent me the following note that may convince people who carry bikes, fishing gear, skis and other sports equipment that they can get by without SUVs:
I'm a regular reader and enjoy your column. A few days ago I noticed your comment about being an RC pilot. Me, too—I fly sport and competition Pattern with a 2 meter long bird. That leads me to looking at station wagons and hatchbacks. My current ride is a Scion tC 5 speed. It's certainly competitive with the Versa and Fit you mentioned in your Feb. 2 column. The 2-meter fuselage fits by letting it intrude into the right front passenger area.

3-alarm fire destroys home in NewfaneSeptember 25,2013
By Christian Avard
Staff Report
NEWFANE - A three-alarm fire destroyed a home at 174 Newfane Hill Road in Newfane on Wednesday, according to Southwest New Hampshire Fire Mutual Aid.
Newbrook Fire Chief Todd Lawley said the fire was called in just before 1 p.m. and was fully involved by the time firefighters arrived at the scene. The home owners, Sandra and Reginald Sorrell and their daughter were home at the time of the fire and were not injured, Lawley said.
"(Reginald Sorrell) was doing some shingle work on the side of their house when his daughter yelled to him there was a fire. It started on the second floor in the kitchen, engulfed the second floor and then the roof," Lawley said.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation. The home was already declared a total loss before the fire was under control by late afternoon.
The fire went from two-alarm to three-alarm status because tankers were needed to access a local water source. Rescue Inc. and the Newbrook, South Newfane, West Dummerston, Putney, Winhall, Guilford, Wardsboro, East Dover and Townshend Fire Departments responded to the fire.

Early-morning fire destroys Springfield barnStaff Report | November 13,2013Len Emery Photo
Smoke billows above a residence on Parker Hill Road in Springfield Wednesday morning.An early morning structure fire on Parker Hill Road in Springfield Wednesday morning had firefighters battling a large barn and connecting outbuildings in a blaze that called crews from as far away as Ludlow.
According to reports on the scene, the fire began in an extension of the residence and spread to the barn, which housed the fine woodworking business of David Heinz, who had moved to the home in July of 2000 and established his business.
The house is still standing, but the barn is likely a total loss, and it is probably not insured.
Fire crews from Charlestown, Rockingham, Chester, Ascutney and Proctorsville assisted in putting out the stubborn fire.MORE IN This Just InEmployee charged

Oops, something didn't work.
I do think that acceleration is more of a factor on the drive. At constant speed, the drive is in an inertial frame of reference and can't tell if it's moving at Mach 5 or sliding across your table slowly.
Worth mentioning you have to have local admin rights when re joining the computer to the network (as mention at 5m - 5.35minutes) I've had this issue several times over the last few years and it happens for no reason at all and coming off the domain and rejoining seems to be the best solution. Wish this would be fixed.
In reference to the GPO question, 'gpresult' is a very helpful command to run when troubleshooting GPO issues. It will tell you if a policy has been filtered along with other useful information.
"Systray volume not changing headphone volume."
That's the notification area, not the system tray, silly!
