Early August had blasts of cold that reminded Tobal of the bitter winter months ahead. He needed to be thinking about his own permanent winter camp. During the winter travel and temporary camps were both dangerous. Winter clothing was essential and food critical to replace the heat given off by the body.
In addition the nights were longer and there was less sunlight. The chance of getting caught in mountain storms was very real and likely. Rafe had talked some about winter survival but there had not been any need to do much preparation then. Now it was time to do some serious thinking and integrate it into his training.
Tobal found himself with his third trainee. To his delight it was Sarah. He had forgotten she would be claiming sanctuary in the late summer. When she saw him, she raised a scene by running over and hugging him. She refused to go with anyone else and there were a few tense moments. Since there were enough newbies things were soon straightened out and everyone was happy.
The days were getting shorter and travel would soon be getting harder. The leaves were turning and there was not as much ready vegetation for fresh salads. They relied on dried fruit and meat. They scavanged for herbs and nuts that would be impossible to find after the snows came and began collecting and drying them. They stayed on the lookout for Hazelnuts, acorns, walnuts and chestnuts.
Acorns needed to be roasted but any nuts were good protein for the winter months and kept well in storage. Some tubers and inner bark of trees were collected to be made into flour later on. Tobal was hoping to make some bread this winter if he could figure out how to do it.
Trapping became the most important thing since they needed furs to make clothing for the coming winter. The easiest fur bearing animals were the beaver and muskrats. They spent much time near the streams during that first week living off fish and small animals they snared. They even tried eating beaver and muskrat. Tobal decided he could eat it if needed but used most of the meat for baiting traps and snares for more pleasant tasting game.
The skinned pelts needed to be fleshed by scraping off every bit of fat, flesh and membrane from the back of the hide and then stretching it on a stretching board with the fur on the inside leaving it to dry. It was hard nasty work that dulled knives and took up most of the day.
The muskrat pelts were stretched over specially whittled and sized boards but the beaver pelts were stretched in circular wood hoops and laced into place tightly. The wooden hoops were made by steaming the wood and gently bending it into the desired shape and then lashing the wood tightly into place. This was also the way snowshoes would be made later when they had more time.
After the pelts had dried a few days they were tanned with a cooked smelly mixture of brains, bone marrow, and liver spread liberally over the hides, worked into them and left for a few days. The foul mixture was then washed off and the process of "pulling" the leather began. Enzymes in the bad smelling mixture softened the leather enough to tan it.
Pulling the leather was a process of bending it sharply and making it pliable. This was done by pulling the pelt across the sharp edge of a stone or around a small smooth wooden pole set in the ground. After the pelt was soft and pliable the last step was for the tanned side to be smoked so the leather would not become stiff after it had gotten wet. It was only then the pelts could be cut and sewn into winter clothing.
Making the stretching boards and the stretching frames took several days and Tobal knew Sarah would not be ready to solo at the next circle. There was too much to be done. By the end of the 2nd week they had trapped enough beaver and muskrat for their own use and were busy tanning and smoking the pelts. What worried him was they hadn't had time to do much else and the weather was getting colder. They were running out of time.

...manure in for torres.....
Never happen.
- According to Torres in direct quotes, he would never play for Manchester City because of the rivalry, so based on the fact that rivalry is peanuts compared to Manchester United, he'd never do that.
- How often do Manchester United and Liverpool conduct business and/or transfers together? Anything worth note?
- Fernando Torres was brought in to try out with 2 English teams when he was being scouted with Atletico Madrid, Arsenal came in first and Manchester second. Ferguson apparently didn't invite him back, deeming him not good enough. Rafa swooped in and the rest is history. This is fact coming from Torres Autobiography.
- Ferguson tried to slander and humiliate Torres after the most recent match at Old Trafford calling him a diver, and saying he made an absolute "meal" of the 2 challenges where anyone with 1 eyeball could see were clearly fouls and penalties.
- Manchester are very slowly, but surely beginning to go in decline both on and off the pitch. Liverpool are not faring much better, but they've made initial steps to turn the ship, so jumping to United wouldn't bring him all that much more success. Chelsea, Arsenal, Barcelona yes..
- Torres has way too much respect and love for the club and fans of Liverpool to make a move like that. He's been loyal to the club and in his book describes his love for the city and people. Going to United would be unthinkable.. Maybe he'd go back on his comment about Man City to play with his buddy David Silva, but never to United..

If anything the mesaage of the last few days is never believe what a footballer tells you. Its not that long ago that Rooney was saying how much he loved United and how he wanted to stay there for the rest of his career. And lets not forget that once upon a time Sol Campbell assured Spurs fans that he would sign a new contract and would never join Arsenal. Like any great player Torres craves the big stage and unless Liverpool stage a dramatic comeback to rival that of Lazarus they aren not going to qualify for the Champions League for the second year running.

You missed alot of my point. Understandable that we probably won't be providing Torres Champions League football, a Europa Cup and FA cup are always theoretically possible, and that shows progress and promise, not to mention what we may do in January to bolster the squad.
My point is, 4 years ago when Torres was scouted by Arsene Wenger and brought for a try out, Manchester also did and Ferguson sent him home as not being good enough for EPL. Well upon joining Liverpool and having torn United to shreds on several occasions and having Ferguson accuse him of being a cheat, a dive and never giving him any kind of props as being a top player or striker, I think Fernando would love nothing more than to stick it to him.
The same holds true for Torres and a possible move to Spain. He grew up in an Atletico family of players, was the youngest capatin in team history and grew to hate Real Madrid. He's said how much he dislikes Real as his life long rival and would never play for him out of dislike and respect. Insert Liverpool and Manchester United into this sentiment. Torres is a Red, and he as an anti- Red Devil.
He never complains about money or contracts, he wants to win and wants to play in EPL to prove he can do it. So if it's not with Liverpool, Chelsea having Drogba and Anelka both around 32 years old and the financial situation and strength makes that his most likely destination to London. Arsenal could be a darkhorse.
Nonetheless, I hate discussing or thinking about him leaving so let's just hope this season really kicks on starting tomorrow in Naples and then even more importantly ver Blackburn at Anfield who Torres has very very good scoring record against AND Samba, Rovers biggest best CB is suspended. Torres gets on the mark this weekend!@

'Follow Me' to be notified of new patterns and project updates!
My name is Elena Nodel, and I am a mom to a very industrious, busy, ever curious and adventurous little girl. She is my ever present inspiration for all my creative ideas. As she grows, she becomes more and more involved in my creative work, and actually does have a say in a final look of any given project. I have a Girly Girl, thus most of my designs are very feminine. However, lately I have started working on more unisex projects.
I was born and raised in Russia, a place where knitting is a part of the lifestyle. I now live in British Columbia, Canada, one of the most beautiful countries in the world. I am a trained microbiologist/immunologist , and have spent years doing scientific research. I am married to a like scientist, and his name is Peter. I am truly blessed to have such a wonderful and supportive husband, and Maya is very lucky to have a father who constantly encourages her natural curiosity, and teaches her about the world around her - she has him wrapped very tightly around her little finger!
I love working with natural fibers such as cotton or wool, and always try to use them.One thing I don't like doing is seaming, therefore I knit in the round as much as possible. It is great for me and comfortable for kids. And as a result, I usually design my garments to be worked in the round from the top down.

I love making shawls, so designing one was always something I wanted to do. This particular shawl brings a lot of nostalgic memories. It is designed with Orenburg Honeycomb stitch, a very old lace technique that comes from the Orenburg region of Russia.
This lace technique uses only yarn overs and k2tog to create very complex and completely reversible lace patterns. Neat, isn't it? I am originally from Russia. I remember my grandma wearing shawls made with this lace technique. Thus the multitude of memories and the Nostalgia name for the shawl.
This shawl is completely reversible, more so if you use one color only.

The Wildcats allowed four of their players to be dual-registered with Doncaster this year, with the quartet playing a key role in the South Yorkshire club's Championship One title win.
Players will again be dual-registered next season, while the two clubs will work together on commercial projects.
"As a club we're over the moon to go in to partnership with Wakefield who was arguably the most improved club in the Super League competition last season," said Doncaster chief executive Carl Hall.
Doncaster coach Tony Miller is to work alongside opposite number Richard Agar at some of Wakefield's games as part of the deal, while Wildcats' coaches will assist with Doncaster's training.

Crayola's new Create 2 Destroy line gives kids the opportunity to engage in imaginative roleplay through build-and-destroy experiences. With the Fortress Invasion set, kids can mold bricks and boulders to build fortresses and warriors to defend them. Then, bust out the four catapults to blast it all apart. And when rubble is all that remains, build the fortresses again and create a whole new battle scene.
The kit comes with three colors of Crayola's Morphix dough. The Morphix compound has a gritty texture and is heavier for easy stacking and building. The kit also includes 36 molds and a playmat. The instructions have suggested games that kids can play once they've built their boulders and fortresses, but, of course, kids can also play however they want. The set is compatible with other Create 2 Destroy sets, which are sold separately, for more smash-up adventures. Kids can place the playmates from the different sets together to extend and enhance the battle zone.
Kids will love building action-packed battle scenes with this playset. The Morphix compound is easy to use and holds its shape well once kids mold it. The Fortress Invasion set engages kids in lots of imaginative and creative play.
Fortress Invasion is for ages 4 and up.
The instructions were very easy to follow. However, we had some difficulty using the molds. It was hard to tell what some of the molds were and get the Morphix compound out of the molds. We found that it worked best if we just used our hands.
Morphix is an abrasive compound that may scratch household surfaces. Do not place Morphix directly on surfaces (countertops, tables, flooring) to knead, mold, or dry.
Molded pieces will begin to harden in two to four hours and will fully dry overnight. If you want to reuse your Morphix to create something different, it's important that you return the Morphix back to its resealable container before it has had a chance to start drying out.

Rapidshare & Co in the sights of the malware-mafia
Cyber criminals are increasingly using legal file hosters as infection channels.
The main offering is free tools. Through using this method, the perpetrators successfully avoid reputation-based URL-filters which place websites on white or black lists dependent on their "good reputation". The abused file-hosting services are not on these so-called black lists and consequently are not blocked. The saved files primarily consist of free tools. The range of malware discovered is surprisingly extensive: backdoors, sniffers and downloaders are all represented, as are diverse Trojan horses or the worm, Koobface.
Ralf Benzmüller, manager of G Data Security Labs, summarises:
"It is not only Rapidshare that is affected. Also other file hosting services, such as mediafire.com, uploaded.to and uploading.com, have been taken advantage of to spread malware. Often these files are promoted as the latest versions of software, the latest tools or cracked software. Would-be bargain hunters are particularly at risk here. In general Internet users should not be lured into a false sense of security - even when the source is a well-known one-click hosting service."
Recruitment of reputation-based URL filters
The motivation for spreading malware via file-hosting providers, must be considered both from a technical as well as an economic point of view:
1. As the upload of harmful content is mostly anonymous, and the hosters have more than adequately dimensioned servers and line capacities, such platforms offer an uncomplicated, yet still highly effective way of distributing malware.
2. As "tailgaters" the perpetrators of this methodology creep underneath so-called reputation-based URL filters. These are based on "black lists", which rely on the "reputation" of certain websites. Among many of these filters, large popular websites are not incorporated in blocked-lists precisely because of their enormous popularity.
Background information about one-click hosters
So-called one-click hosters have been very popular for some considerable time as they permit the simple exchange of large data quantities. Numerous providers of file or one-click hosting services permit the anonymous and free provision of large data volumes. Using such services it is quick and easy to place files on the provider's servers, often without even having to register. These files then remain available for download for a specified time via an individual link. Cyber criminals have now caught-up with this trend and are using Rapidshare and Co. to distribute their harmful software.

ST. PAUL -- Minnesota senators narrowly voted Tuesday to allow some patients in extreme pain to smoke marijuana, and the House author of the measure predicted a narrow victor. But Gov. Tim Pawlenty promises to veto any such bill. The 33-31 Senate vote followed a debate that featured supporters who said they want to ease people's pain fighting those who worried that allowing medical marijuana would lead to more widespread use of it. "There is not a person on the Senate floor or a person in the state of Minnesota who hasn't witnessed ...
ST. PAUL -- It appears Minnesota legislators must start over on a public works projects funding package after Gov. Tim Pawlenty vetoed their first attempt Tuesday, saying lawmakers simply wanted to spend too much. The future of $334 million worth of projects ranging from flood aid to college roof repairs is in doubt and lawmakers have not discussed their next move. "We will see what, if anything, will happen by the end of the session," Sen.
Off-highway vehicles would be able to drive on state forest roads during seasons set by the state natural resources commissioner under a bill senators passed Monday. During the season, off-road vehicles only would be allowed in areas mapped for off-road use. The bill also would outlaw possession of firewood unless it is obtained from an authorized dealer. The provision is designed to keep wood infected by the emerald wood borer out of Minnesota.
ST. PAUL -- Nuclear power plants either are the answer to the country's power and environmental problems or they create worse problems. That is the range of opinions Minnesota legislators face as they consider whether to alter state laws dealing with nuclear plants. While a Senate committee held meetings on the matter this week and the House energy chairman promises hearings before lawmakers adjourn on May 21, it is not clear whether anything actually will happen this year. Murphy's bills Sen.
ST. PAUL -- Minnesota lawmakers gave the Mall of America a mixed reception Wednesday when its representatives sought state aid to expand. "I would say my district needs more help than you do," Rep. Sandy Wollschlager, DFL-Cannon Falls, told them. On the other hand, Rep. Dean Simpson, R-Perham, rebutted: "Any time you can bring that kind of money into the state, we should do it." A similar Senate bill has advanced with relatively little opposition, but the House plan faces problems, especially since the Taxes Committee chairwoman is against it.
ST. PAUL -- Two waitresses illustrate Minnesotans' differences over a statewide smoking ban plan advancing through the Minnesota Legislature. "I believe that all of us in the state of Minnesota - workers, businesses and public - ultimately are going to win on this issue," Duluth's Joan Linski said if the smoking ban passes, as it appears it will. That is not how Bierstubes worker Mary Yoswa of Hastings sees the matter.
ST. PAUL -- A state legislator and descendant of Betsy Ross threw his support behind a long-unsuccessful effort to require American flags sold in Minnesota be made in the United States Thursday, one of an overwhelming House majority to back the bill. After six years of trying, Rep. Tom Rukavina succeeded on an 83-46 vote to pass his bill. It brought both humor and emotion to the House floor. Rep. Larry Howes, a rare Republican to vote for the bill, said his family has a long military history, going back to the American Revolution when an ancestor was a seamstress. "Gen.

I made these a couple years ago but forgot to review. They were seriously so tasty! I am not kidding when I say that I nearly ate the entire batch by myself. They were easy but a bit time consuming and I noticed as I formed my eggs, they kept getting bigger and bigger because they were taking a while. My mouth waters every time I think about these eggs. Thanks for this yummy recipe!
I did it & was so easy to make. It was like a real egg, but was so sweet !!!!!
Turned out great. I doubled the recipe and did not see how much powdered sugar I used. I just kept adding it until I thought it was enough.

Sugata Mitra creates a School in the Cloud
The wish
School in the Cloud
The winner
Sugata Mitra
The year
My wish is to help design the future of learning by supporting children all over the world to tap into their innate sense of wonder. Help me build the School in the Cloud, a learning lab in India, where children can embark on intellectual adventures by engaging and connecting with information and mentoring online. I also invite you, wherever you are, to create your own miniature child-driven learning environments and share your discoveries.
The plan
Modern-day schooling looks like it did 300 years ago. The system we know — a teacher in front of a class, students quiet in orderly desks — was developed under the British Empire. But today, with the rise of the Internet, memorization of facts isn't as important. For the jobs of the future, students need to learn how to locate information and think critically.
This is the paradigm shift Sugata Mitra hopes to usher in with the School in the Cloud. In addition to designing and building physical learning labs of varying bandwidth and resources, he set out to create a "Granny Cloud," a global network of retired teachers to support children through an online School in the Cloud platform. His goal: to engage communities, parents, teachers and after-school programs worldwide to transform the way kids learn, by sharing the Self-Organized Learning Environment (SOLE) method with them.
Current status
A lot has happened since Sugata Mitra shared his wish at TED2013. In November 2013, the first School in the Cloud learning lab — located inside a high school in Killingworth, England — opened its doors to students. Since then, six more learning labs have been built — one more in the UK and five across India.
Mitra has also launched the School in the Cloud platform which ensures that anyone, anywhere, can experiment with self-organized learning. As of 2016, more than 16,000 SOLE sessions have taken place globally, with partner learning labs and programs scatted across the world — including in Pakistan, Colombia and Greece. The platform debuted at TED2014, with Microsoft and their Skype Social Good team stepping in to provide core technology and connect a global community. Made By Many, the product design partners, and IDEO, the research design partners, co-created the experience. And Newcastle University opened SOLE Central in 2014, as a global hub for research on self-organized learning. The platform is managed at the university's Culture Lab.
The process of building the School in the Cloud will be the subject of documentary by British director Jerry Rothwell, winner of the first annual Sundance Institute | TED Prize Filmmaker Award. A trailer of the documentary, which you can watch below, was released at TED2014. The film will be available soon.

TV's 'Mad Men' Pays To Play Beatles' Song
Beatles tunes are very hard to license — the surviving band members and heirs have been choosy about who can play their songs. AMC's Mad Men made the cut. For a reported $250,000, the show was allowed to pay "Tomorrow Never Knows."

Often referred to as the "poet of the violin," Joshua Bell is one of the world's most celebrated violinists. He continues to enchant audiences with his breathtaking virtuosity, tone of sheer beauty, and charismatic stage presence. His restless curiosity, passion, universal appeal, and multi-faceted musical interests have earned him the rare title of "classical music superstar." Bell's most recent challenge is his appointment as the new Music Director of the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, the first person and first American to hold this post since Sir Neville Marriner formed the orchestra in 1958. The ensemble's first 15-concert tour to the U.S. garnered rave reviews, and as one orchestra member blogged in Gramophone "the audience reaction all tour has been nothing short of rock concert enthusiasm." Their first recording under Bell's leadership as Music Director/conductor will be the 4th and 7th symphonies of Beethoven to be released by Sony Classical February 12, 2013 with plans to eventually perform and record all the Beethoven symphonies.
Always seeking opportunities to increase the violin repertoire, Bell has premiered new works by composers Nicholas Maw, John Corigliano, Aaron Jay Kernis, Edgar Meyer, Behzad Ranjbaran and Jay Greenberg. Mr. Bell also performs and has recorded his own cadenzas to many of the major violin concertos.
Bell has been embraced by a wide television audience with appearances ranging from The Tonight Show, Tavis Smiley, Charlie Rose, and CBS Sunday Morning to Sesame Street and Entertainment Tonight. In 2010 Bell starred in his fifth Live From Lincoln Center Presents broadcast titled: Joshua Bell with Friends @ The Penthouse. Other PBS shows include Great Performances – Joshua Bell: West Side Story Suite from Central Park, Memorial Day Concert performed on the lawn of the United States Capitol, and A&E's Biography. He has twice performed on the Grammy Awards telecast, performing music from Short Trip Home and West Side Story Suite. He was one of the first classical artists to have a music video air on VH1 and he has been the subject of a BBC Omnibus documentary. Bell has appeared in publications ranging from Strad and Gramophone to, The New York Times, People Magazine's 50 Most Beautiful People issue, USA Today, The Wall St. Journal, GQ, Vogue and Readers Digest among many. In 2007, Bell performed incognito in a Washington, DC subway station for a Washington Post story by Gene Weingarten examining art and context. The story earned Weingarten a Pulitzer Prize and sparked an international firestorm of discussion which continues to this day.
Growing up with his two sisters in Bloomington, Indiana, Bell indulged in many passions outside of music, becoming an avid computer game player and a competitive athlete. He placed fourth in a national tennis tournament at age 10, and still keeps his racquet close by. At age four, he received his first violin after his parents, both mental health professionals, noticed him plucking tunes with rubber bands he had stretched around the handles of his dresser drawers. By 12 he was serious about the instrument, thanks in large part to the inspiration of renowned violinist and pedagogue Josef Gingold, who had become his beloved teacher and mentor. Two years later, Bell came to national attention in his highly acclaimed debut with Riccardo Muti and the Philadelphia Orchestra. His Carnegie Hall debut, an Avery Fisher Career Grant and a notable recording contract soon followed, further confirming his presence in the musical world.
In 1989, Bell received an Artist Diploma in Violin Performance from Indiana University where he currently serves as a senior lecturer at the Jacobs School of Music. His alma mater honored him with a Distinguished Alumni Service Award, he has been named an "Indiana Living Legend" and is the recipient of the Indiana Governor's Arts Award.
In 2011 Bell received the Paul Newman Award from Arts Horizons and the Huberman Award from Moment Magazine. Bell was named "Instrumentalist of the Year, 2010 by Musical America and that same year received the Humanitarian Award from Seton Hall University. In 2009 he was honored by Education Through Music and he received the Academy of Achievement Award in 2008 for exceptional accomplishment in the arts. In 2007 he was awarded the Avery Fisher Prize and recognized as a Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum. He was inducted into the Hollywood Bowl Hall of Fame in 2005.
Today Bell serves on the artist committee of the Kennedy Center Honors and is on the Board of Directors of the New York Philharmonic. He has performed before President Obama at Ford's Theatre and at the White House and recently returned to the Capital to perform for Vice President Biden and President of the People's Republic of China, Xi Jinping.
Bell performs on the 1713 Huberman Stradivarius violin and uses a late 18th century French bow by Francois Tourte.
Joshua Bell: I'm having a blast being the music director at the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields. It certainly is challenging for me but I love challenges. I think as an artist, it's very important to continue to be challenged and feel challenged all the time. So that's - it's easy in my field as if you become well known as a soloist and successful enough, you could probably get away with playing the same ten big pieces over and over again and get paid pretty well for it and have a very nice career. But I think it's really important to always kind of stretch your boundaries and your limits and get out of your comfort zone. And for me, that's very important. So the role of being of directing and conducting something I'd felt a territory I really wanted to move into and it's been a kind of gradual process that's felt very organic.
But, so my role as music director as title is rather new. But I've had a relationship with the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields for, not counting my very first recording 25 years ago with Sir Neville Marriner and the orchestra. The last ten years I've been touring with them as a director, guest director, conductor, and getting to know them and increasing the repertoire from the numbers in the orchestra from smaller string things to bigger things with winds and finally into the big Beethoven symphonies and that's where we are now.
The Academy of St. Martin in the Fields established itself with, I mean, amazing reputation over the years. I think they're the most recorded orchestra in history. Mostly because Neville Marriner was incredibly prolific with his repertoire and would go in the recording studio with that orchestra almost every two weeks or three weeks and make a recording. I think they have a thousand recordings in their catalog.
So if you turn on the classical station, very likely you're going to hear one of those - within an hour you'll hear something with the Academy of St. Martin in the Field. So they have this great reputation. I – and as a very classy orchestra and they've a wonderful sound. I guess, I kind of want to bring them into something - I want them to have this reputation of being, I guess a little bit younger in attitude and very exciting and visceral. And I think that's something that when we play together that's something very special that happens, our chemistry. And the fact that I direct them from the violin so I sit in the concertmaster chair and I direct -I conduct, I play. It feels like a big chamber music like big string quartet but with more people, that kind of feeling where everybody on the edge of their seats rather than the way, unfortunately, the way a lot of people perceive orchestras as being somewhat calmer, you know.
So the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields has such a great reputation as a classy organization and so you - one doesn't need to play concerts at the Acropolis or whatever to, you know, necessarily to differentiate itself. But there's still attracting young listeners is something so important to me and to all of us. The next generation of listeners and sometimes that means playing in venues that are a little bit different. Or even our attire, you know, I am trying to work on maybe just getting rid of some of the white-tie entails, which really has nothing to do with the music. I've got rid of it for myself a long time ago. That really has nothing to do with music and it sometimes stands in the way. It makes, it only supports the cliché, you know, that classical music is somehow old and stuffy, which it doesn't have to be. But playing in venues and maybe, you know, experimenting with midnight concerts or jeans concerts or kids concerts, I think it's all stuff we're all talking about and visiting and I think it's extremely important.

Second year MSM-Operations Research and Supply Chain Management student Isaac Miller discusses what he enjoyed most about being a student at Weatherhead.
STEM-Eligible DegreeThe MSM-OR/SCM program qualifies as a STEM degree, which allows international students in a technical field to apply for a 24-month extension to their optional practical training (OPT) period. This means you may be eligible for up to three years of work in the United States. Visit the U.S. government's website for more information on STEM extensions.
Have a knack for spotting inefficiencies in systems? Looking for opportunities to make a substantial impact in the way businesses and supply chains run? Do you want to use your quantitative skills to solve real business problems?
The Master of Science in Management-Operations Research and Supply Chain Management (MSM-OR/SCM) degree will equip you to make a substantial and measurable impact in national and global operations and supply chain management across a broad range of industries including manufacturing and service industries. Graduates have also gone on to serve as consultants for consulting firms.
The MSM-OR/SCM curriculum provides students with the fundamentals of business as well as depth and focus in the principles of operations research and supply chain management. This program produces highly knowledgeable professionals well-prepared to make organizations more efficient and competitive.
Is This Program Right for Me?
Typical undergraduate majors include: engineering, statistics, computer science, economics, mathematics and business. Students beginning this program must have a working knowledge of undergraduate calculus, including differentiation and integration, and one semester of undergraduate linear algebra. Work experience is beneficial but not required for admission; many students pursue the MSM-OR/SCM immediately following the completion of their undergraduate degree.
Upon completion of the MSM-OR/SCM program, students will:
- Become equipped with analytical and supply chain skills to become an agent of positive change at their organization within the first few years of work
- Speak and understand the language of business
- Gain a working knowledge of functional areas of an organization and the ability to communicate effectively with colleagues in these areas
- Acquire a network of regional, national and international business contacts
- Six Sigma Green Belt certification earned by meeting requirements established by Operations Department

'Walking With the Enemy' shares story of heroism in Holocaust
In 1944, Hitler and the SS ratcheted up their plan to wipe out Europe's Jewish population. And nowhere was the plan carried out with more zeal than in Hungary, a German ally that had staved off demands to join the Nazis' "final solution." In less than two months, nearly 440,000 people — about half of Hungary's Jewish population — were deported, many of them sent to their death at Auschwitz.
"Walking With the Enemy" uses that horrific backdrop to relate a story of heroism — and a reminder that standing up to evil requires sacrifice, ingenuity and a little faith. »Read Full Article

On Tap for Today: 'Bring It On'; LaCage turns 30
"Bring It On: The Musical" is in town for one night only, showing tonight at 7:30 at the Milwaukee Theatre. The musical features an original story, though its inspiration comes from the 2000 teen comedy, "Bring It On," starring Kirsten Dunst and Eliza Dushku.
As a recovering cheerleader, I can attest that the film was pretty accurate in its portrayal of what it was like to be a high-school cheerleader in the 2000s. I'm not sure about nowadays — I mean, Big Red records the competitors with a video camera ... that requires film. And they play the music for their routine off a big stereo, not an iPod. I'm curious to see what "Bring It On" is like as a stage musical. »Read Full Blog Post

How is this set up as shown in the demo?
The Support Forums will be in read-only mode for a scheduled maintenance window on 01 September 2016 14:00 UTC - 20:00 UTC. More information.
How is this set up as shown in the demo?
The demo you have seen on webriti.com is of premium version
HI webbrewers,
As Priyanshu mentioned, the demo is that of a premium version.
It comes with an xml data file. Importing the xml file will setup the wordpress as shown in the demo.
I thought so. You may want to make that clearer in the docs, so people don't waste their time installing something that doesn't do what the demo shows.
Can you point me to the section which you find ambiguous?
The panel clearly mentions that there is a pro version which supports additional features like Sliders etc.
The theme homepage for the lite versions clearly shows a slider.
There's no mention of differences between the lite and pro versions at http://webriti.com/ (no mention of the lite version at all.
The panel clearly mentions that there is a pro version which supports additional features like Sliders etc.
That's only seen after installation. The only demo is of the pro version and no documentation of the what's missing in the lite version. You have to install it to find out which is frustrating.
Yes you are right we are extremely sorry for this but seriously that was not intended that way its just a small mistake from our side.
You want all those demo pages.
If yes, than share your mail id.
I agree that the slider is frustrating.
Additionally, how can I make the favicons linkable? (ie, to send an email, click 'here', that kind of thing.
No problem, I understand.
What do the demo pages consist of?
Dear, i installed Rambo for my site http://www.vietskysupport.com and i would like to have slides in my home page. How can i do? I have to run it on paid version?
Thanks for your support,

I wonder how "happy" the neighbors are about that front yard…
I took this photo of a happy front yard in Ojai, CA, a couple of weeks ago. Click photo to enlarge.

I wonder how "happy" the neighbors are about that front yard…
It looks like this post is another of the Microsoft-sponsored variety? I had commented previously on the Microsoft sponsorship, and I think the comment is worth repeating here:
What are the values that Microsoft demonstrates in the course of conducting its business, and are they consistent with those held by BoingBoing contributors?
If those values are not shared by BoingBoing contributors, could somebody please explain why BoingBoing nevertheless might feel comfortable running advertising for Microsoft?
It would be nice to know that the links to live.com are sponsored.
I am confused as to what pukebazooka's issue is. It states pretty clearly its a sponsored link. The image itself has nothing to do with Microsoft. What would you do differently?
All I know is, I don't feel so bad about my yard now. Seriously. Ever see the area around a bird feeder after the snow melts? I'm thinking of moving just to get away from it.
@#3-Some people just won't take "Sorry, we don't think they're evil enough to refuse their ad dollars," as a sufficient response, for some reason . . .
Personally, I kind of love how Mark seems to have been subtly subverting this whole arrangement by almost exclusively posting photos he took days or weeks before.
Talia — thanks for the comment. Apparently AdBlock prevents the "sponsored by Windows Mobile" image from appearing, but does not block the sponsored link. The net effect appears to show a sponsored link without revealing the sponsorship.
Disabling AdBlock "fixes" the problem. Sorry for any confusion caused by my previous comment.
David Allen of Get Things Done fame lives in that town. I like to think that this is his yard.
Looks just like home, a bit more tidy though :o)
Cool picture!
Mick Nye
Crunchbird — was there ever a statement like that? As far as I know, the response was basically, "We've always accepted advertising, and advertising doesn't influence content."
What Microsoft does seems incongruous with a lot of the editorial content I see on BoingBoing. It's actually a response of something along the lines of "We don't think they're that evil" that I'd like to see — something that clears up where they stand. Even a statement like "We have to eat, too," gets the point across much better than "We've always had advertising."
I apologize if I missed such a statement in the past. It would seem that I've been overlooking recent Windows Mobile-sponsored posts as well, so it wouldn't surprise me.
I realize that I'm likely beating a dead horse here, and I'm sincerely sorry if any of this sounds rude.
I actually have driven by that place alot.. I used to live in Ventura which is 2 minutes below ojai.. anyhoo.. ALOT of yards look like that in Ojai..
someone should get a picture of the guys house that is covered in wood carvings that is down the road in ojai..
No, they've never said it in those exact words that I've seen, PB. I'd say it was just fairly clearly implied in the fact that they have accepted these ads, when they've acknowledged that they have the power to turn down sponsors they fundamentally have issues with. My distillation of their position may be a little simplistic, but maybe that's because my mind really boggles at the idea that this is some sort of serious blot on BB's integrity and just can't grasp the Really Serious Issues involved.
that all belongs on the Dis thread anyway
Did you just make an accusation of simony?
PukeBazooka, you're letting Microsoft take up too much room in your head.
just WHAT is this "Miccgrowzoft" everyone is going on about anyway?
This yard always made me smile. The funny thing that the photo doesn't catch really is that there is a plethora of ducks. I don't know why but there are rubber duckies, rows of them, and wooden ducks and weathervane ducks. but they are all mixed in- it's not like they chose a theme of just ducks.
But the other part that always got me was that there used to be (i was by there a few weeks back and i think they changed it) a house next door, directly next door that is this elegant yellow victorian house with meticulouly manicured roses and a wrought iron fence, which is quite different than all the other houses as well.
so the juxtaposition of the two houses was priceless. a perfect piece of unplanned installation art.
thanks for clarifying PB. I wasn't aware of the adblock issue, obviously. I'm betting you have a much more streamlined Internet experience than I do :)
As an aside.. there are companies far more evil than Microsoft out there. There really are.
Talia, agreed, there are far worse companies. The reason I'm commenting on MS is that a lot of what they do cuts to the heart of the issues that I see discussed on BoingBoing frequently. I do realize that there are a plurality of views among the posters, and the views espoused by one poster aren't necessarily shared by all of them, but it makes me wonder what kind of actions a company has to take before their advertising dollars aren't welcome at BoingBoing.
Crunchbird, you're right, these are not "Really Serious Issues." I'm just wondering what kind of sentiments Boingers have when it comes to accepting advertising dollars from corporations with questionable track records. Obviously there's a tacit acknowledgment that MS is not evil enough to refuse their money, but I'd like read what they have to say rather than infer their feelings on the issue.
Teresa, I'm honestly sorry that I raised the issue in this thread. In part because I'm running AdBlock, I didn't realize that there had been additional MS-sponsored posts since the first one, and I'm guessing that you've read a lot of tired anti-MS comments in previous threads. Had I realized that there had been other sponsored posts, I wouldn't have said anything. But please don't suggest that Microsoft — or anything — takes up too much room in my head on the basis of just three posts across two stories.
Lots of fun- interesting enough in the south- this yard decor is common here. I think one lady put her entire life collection of stuffed animals in her yard- too bad I don't have a picture.
PukeBazooka, I've seen so many anti-Microsoft comments — including many less restrained than your own — that I've threatened to formally declare a competition to identify the top five silliest posts in that vein. Contestants would nominate one each in the following categories: 1. Biggest drama queen. 2. Least plausible claim of betrayal. 3. Most dubious slippery-slope argument. 4. Best revival of Manichaean philosophy. 5. Gravest offense against statistical probability.
The winner would be the contestant whose nominations most closely matched the final list. Having a comment on the final list would be its own reward.
Here's a question for you: how closely do you track the advertisers on other sites and publications you read, and what can you tell me about their track records?
That's a good question, Teresa. I don't track the advertisers on other sites/publications very closely, but I doubt that those advertisers have a track record that's much better than Microsoft.
Much of what I read is online content, and AdBlock prevents me from seeing most ads. In dead-tree advertising, I've seen everything from companies with decent track records (e.g., Patagonia) to companies with terrible track records (e.g., any oil company). The deluge of advertising in print media gets to be a bit of a blur. The first appearance of the Windows sponsorship logo, prior to its getting blacklisted by AdBlock, took me by surprise and seemed to me unique, even though paid links are nothing new or rare — but it seemed novel to me, which is one of the reasons that I originally commented.
Except for BoingBoing, I haven't made any unsolicited comments on advertising. One of the reasons I did comment here was in hopes that I might eventually read a more candid statement about advertising, which isn't something that I'd expect to see from a stodgier publication or website.
Thanks for your tolerance with my posts. I know that sometimes the meaning can get lost in poorly worded comments, so I really apologize if it seems like I'm somehow suggesting that BoingBoing's credibility or integrity is damaged by the MS ads. I certainly don't think that's the case.
Maybe I'm just more focused, but why would anybody bother blocking ads? I understand the problem with ads in, for instance, a television program because they take up your time and usually yell at you. But online, how about just not looking at them?
I live in Ojai and this yard is actually very famous to us all and everyone in town drops little ducks over the fence. It is the duck ladies home. She is an elderly lady and decorates each and every duck in her yard for each holiday. No one complains about this creative expression in our town, we love it!!
Just saw it this weekend :D

The quality of the kit is good, however its a bit tricky to get into place in the garage kit building. Took me three attempts before I go it lined up correctly so that it would open and close properly. Found that by gluing it to the wall first, rather than ceiling was the way to get the correct line up. Very pleased with it once it was done correctly.

Two masons from Philadelphia are spending the week repairing the Hungry Hill Revolutionary War monument on Sullivan Trail in Pocono Pines.
The monument commemorates Gen. John Sullivan's expedition from Easton to Wyoming Valley in 1779 to avenge the massacre of white settlers by Iroquois natives.
Sullivan and his men built the road that is today known as Sullivan Trail.
An unknown soldier is reportedly buried at Hungry Hill. The troops ran out of provisions in Monroe County and the soldier may have starved to death. Other accounts claim he was hit by a falling tree during construction of the road.
The monument also may pay tribute to the county's first commuters. Sullivan's expedition comprised men from the 2nd New York and 5th New Jersey regiments of the continental line.
Monroe County is responsible for maintaining the monument, believed to be one of the few Revolutionary War monuments in the area. Robert Gress, chief clerk and administrator for Monroe County, said Hungry Hill is the only monument maintained by the county.
The $11,200 contract for repairs will be paid for by the hotel tax. In previous years, the monument was repaired by Eagle Scouts as a public service project.
Mark Baumann and Fred Esposito of Philadelphia-based Schneider Restorations spent Monday and Tuesday removing the brittle concrete pointing from the monument. They will apply new concrete to the rock wall along the roadside, reset the stone steps and replace any missing stones.
Gress said the work was awarded to a Philadelphia business because Schneider Restorations was the low bidder.
"This company has worked on numerous historic sites of national importance in Philadelphia," Gress said. "We were pleased that they bid on the job and were the low bidder."
One little known fact about the monument was uncovered in the files of the Monroe County Historical Society: The county does not actually own the land. Instead, the county has a 99-year lease on the site that expires Dec. 31, 2042.
The monument was constructed by the commissioners and the historical society on land that was leased for a dollar from Wanda Calhoun and J. Elwood Calhoun, who were owners of a nearby camp for boys.
According to a letter written by Doris Price Fellows, Wanda Calhoun grew up in the area and "always had a keen interest of the historical value of Hungry Hill on Sullivan Trail."
Wanda Calhoun deeded rights to the land to Monroe County in 1942, the monument was built during World War II, and it was dedicated Sept. 30, 1944.
Gress said that anyone interested in beautifying Hungry Hill through landscaping or planting flowers should contact the Monroe County commissioners office to volunteer.

"Why am I here?" asks Wang-mu, one of Orson Scott Card's characters in Children of the Mind. It's a question worthy of every infatuation.
She answers with a healthy dose of self-suspicion and finds beneath her messy hunger a call to something greater.
"I'm no part of any of these events. There is nothing of any god in me. . . . [But] how can I be worried about my own selfish loneliness at a time like this? . . . I am here because I am the one that must love Peter so much that he can feel worthy, worthy enough to bear to let the goodness . . . flow into him, making him whole." Wang-mu was the one who could give Peter permission to become [a] man (179).
Get Committed
Such a summons is enough to get you committed. The failure of this vision of love is that it won't bear weight over the long haul. As she notes up front, she is not a god.
She can neither be the goodness that Peter needs to become whole, nor receive that goodness on Peter's behalf. She is not a god.
Neither is Peter. And shaping herself to serve—god-like and unselfish though her gift may be—is not the same as her own whole-making. Peter is neither her goodness, nor in the case of this story, her truth. He may not even act to serve her own processes of whole-making.
Nevertheless, if she is to withstand his inevitable confusion of her with the goodness that makes him whole, if she is to bear his disappointment, she herself must get whole. A worthy partner must be able to stand face to face with Peter, a whole to a whole.
Or in the case of real-people relationships, a whole-in-progress to a whole-in-progress.
Get a Face
Orson Scott Card does not play out such a scenario. His leading men seem to require multiple women in additive roles to equal the part of "worthy partner."
So I return to C. S. Lewis's Till We Have Faces, where he explores how we humans are sanctified, that is, made whole and made holy. His heroine also requires multiple characters to match her (though none of them are mates) and often confuses human love and its disappointments with her expectations of the god. In the end, she confesses:
I saw well why the gods do not speak to us openly, nor let us answer. . . . How can they meet us face to face till we have faces (294)?
Get Whole
In Christ we discover, beneath our messy hungers, a summons to something greater: transformation into the Lord's image, his glory (2 Cor 3:18). This is why we are here. Surely we must act like Jesus to become like Jesus, serving one another's whole-making, even when that process is still at the filthy-feet stage (John 13:12–17). But the humans that we shape ourselves to serve cannot make us whole.
Getting God's face "comes from the Lord, the Spirit" (2 Cor 3:18). I must bear to let God's goodness and truth flow into me, making me whole.
Jesus' disciples may shape themselves to serve me also. Or they may not. Either way, if I am to be a worthy partner in service of the gospel, I must stand to them face to face. And so, I must get a face.

Emerging oral care products include eco aspects for conscious consumers
CONSUMER INSIGHT - Implications - Oral care companies are developing products with eco-friendly features. The integration of this specific feature is a way for these brands to appeal to consumers of all ages, but especially young people, with concern with regards to the impact of their purchases. This shift is reflective of how widespread environmental consciousness is becoming. [More]
