When you look at the best CD rates [3], you will see that many of them are for periods other than 12 months. Some have 6, some have 18, and the bottom line is that you want to figure out how much money you'll get for the money you deposit. Enter in the CD rate interest calculator. Here's the information you'll need:
- Interest rate APY (if you have APR, convert it with this APR APY Calculator [4])
- CD term (number of months)
- Amount deposited (no commas or dollar signs please)
- Compounding frequency (times per year) – 1 for annually, 12 for monthly, etc.
If you don't have compounding frequency, don't worry about it because changing that will only affect the interest earned value by a small amount. When in doubt, pick monthly compounding frequency.
(If you have the APY and the term is 12 months, the interest you'll earn is simply the APY times the amount deposited)
CD Rate Interest Calculator
Here's a handy calculator to help you calculate the amount you'll earn:
For example, let's say you wanted to know how much you'll put in your pocket with a deposit of $10,000 into a 18-month 2.05% APY CD from Ally Bank [5]. You would enter the following values into the calculator:
- CD Interest rate: 2.05
- CD term: 18
- Amount deposited: 10000
- Compounding frequency: 365
Click "Calculate CD Interest" and you'll see that you'll have earned $309.07 after 18 months. This is only a rough estimate (it'll be off a little because of how the numbers are rounded) but should give you a good idea of what to expect. And don't forget about taxes. 🙂

In support of our veterans, Southeast Missouri State University implemented the Missouri Returning Heroes Education Act effective Fall 2008. This Act provides for discounted tuition for eligible veterans attending a Missouri public post-secondary institution.
Veterans who meet the following criteria, and complete the Application for Reduced Tuition, will be considered for the discounted tuition rate established by the Act.
The Office of Student Financial Services will determine if you meet the criteria to be considered for discounted tuition and the amount that your tuition will be reduced, if applicable.
To apply, please submit a copy of your most recent DD-214 (long form) and the Missouri Returning Heroes Act Application for Reduced Tuition to Student Financial Services, Academic Hall Room 019.
Continued eligibility will require that the veteran achieve a 2.5 cumulative GPA by the end of the first semester (and all subsequent periods) of eligibility* when the institution checks satisfactory progress in order to meet renewal criteria.
*Note: There should be no grade point requirement for a veteran the first time they receive the tuition reduction even if they have previously attended an institution of higher education.
Students who do meet renewal criteria may regain eligibility of the discounted tuition rate once their cumulative GPA has increased to the minimum requirement (2.5), or better. A new Application for Reduced Tuition must be submitted to Student Financial Services for reinstatement.
For more information, please visit the Department of Higher Education's website at: http://www.dhe.mo.gov/files/moretheroesact.pdf
Or contact the Missouri Veterans Commission for information on documentation relating to a veteran's military service at 1-866-VET-INFO (838-4636).

Gwyneth Paltrow channels Taylor Swift in 'Country Strong' video
We already knew Gwyneth Paltrow could sing from her duet with Huey Lewis in... Now we discover she can sing country as well. In this new clip from "Country Strong," her new movie with Tim McGraw," we see her warbling a very stereotypical, somewhat paint-by-numbers country tune. The tune, however, comes in a beautiful wrapper courtesy of Vince Gill and Patty Griffin's backing vocals.
The clip intersperses Paltrow performing the song with clips of the movie and of her character performing the song--it's a little psycho that way. In the movie, she plays a down-on-herluck country singer out of rehab attempting a comeback with the assistance of her husband/manager, played by Tim McGraw. But as we can tell from the video, complications ensue when Leighton Meester enters the picture as a competing singer. Tears flow, horses run wild, pick up trucks get stuck in the mud.
Tell me Paltrow doesn't look like Taylor Swift in the long shots of her in the red dress pumping her arm.
[Editor's note: We contacted Sony Pictures, who initially provided us with the link, about why the video was no longer available. There is no clear answer yet, but as soon as it is, we will re-post.]

And there is your 2013-14 Bulls, when the offense sucks so bad everyone at the United Center is watching round 2 of a 100 level cat fight. Good times.
Also, if this is Carlos Boozer's girlfriend I genuinely feel bad for her. Having to fake that you actually like Carlos Boozer can't be fun.

No more tanking in the NBA? Well, maybe a smaller reward for doing it, if a plan to change the draft lottery goes through.
According to Grantland.com's Zach Lowe, the proposed new system would spread the pingpong balls more evenly among teams and would double the number of top picks determined by lottery from three to six.
Currently, the team with the worst record has a 25 percent chance of getting the top pick, although the last time the worst team drafted No. 1 was 2004 (Magic, Dwight Howard). The lottery team with the best record has less than 1 percent shot. The new system would give each of the five worst teams about an 11 percent chance, which in theory would disincentivize tanking, and give team No. 14 about a 2 percent chance.
Lowe reports that a new system could be in place as early as next season, but there still is much to be discussed.

MIAMI -- Erik Spoelstra took no joy from adding to the woes of the Los Angeles Clippers.
The Miami Heat coach remembers what it was like a year ago, when his team was ravaged by injuries and was the worst in the NBA. And now it's the Clippers living that nightmare, which continued Monday night in a 119-95 loss to the Heat.
"They're going through a rough stretch and we know how that goes," Spoelstra said. "We went through that last year. It's tough and it wears on you. But from our standpoint, you still have to take care of business."
Which the Heat did with ease.
Dwyane Wade had 32 points and nine assists, Michael Beasley added 18 points and Miami scored its most points in a home game since March 14, 2006, on the way to snapping a two-game skid.
Mario Chalmers scored 15 points, Udonis Haslem added 13 and Shawn Marion -- in his first game back after missing five straight with a strained left groin -- finished with 11 points and seven rebounds for the Heat, who improved to 15-3 when scoring more than 100 points this season.
"My first time in 10 years coming off the bench," said Marion, who entered a game as a reserve for the first time since March 10, 2000, as a rookie for Phoenix against Utah. "It was good."
Zach Randolph, back after missing 19 games with a sore left knee, scored 21 points for the Clippers, who've lost six straight and 20 of 22. Marcus Camby and Eric Gordon each added 12 for the Clippers, who had beaten Miami by a point in each of their past two meetings.
But Miami controlled this one nearly start to finish, never trailing by more than three points in the early going and holding the lead for the game's final 33:33.
"We made too many poor plays tonight, turnovers," Clippers coach Mike Dunleavy said. "We had some guys in the game who hadn't played in a while, like Zach. And we had some matchups and coverages that we made mistakes on and gave them too many open looks."
Although the Clippers are tied with Washington for the league's worst record -- both teams are now 10-38 -- this game had significance for Miami.
The Heat were coming off losses to Indiana and Dallas. And with a road trip to Eastern Conference rivals Detroit and Philadelphia starting Wednesday, it's not the ideal time for a midseason swoon, particularly with five teams already jostling for the No. 4 playoff seed.
So Wade and Chalmers went to work early, setting the tone. They combined for 16 points in the first quarter as Miami built a six-point lead, and the Heat -- buoyed by 56 percent shooting in the half and a 10-point second quarter from Beasley -- eased into the break with a 58-47 edge.
"We know we can score," Wade said. "Guys can shoot the ball on this team. ... We've got a pretty deep team, and we're going to need it."
It got dicey, though, late in the third.
The Clippers held Miami to only two field goals in a four-minute span, and suddenly found themselves down just 77-70 with 3:08 left in the quarter after a pair of free throws from Baron Davis.
Right on cue, Wade took over, leading a 13-3 run that ended the quarter.
He hit a pair of 3-pointers and scored nine points in all during the spurt, and after Haslem hit a jumper with two seconds left, the Heat carried a 90-73 lead into the fourth.
"Once everybody gets back healthy, we're going to be OK," Randolph said.
Miami (26-21) moved into fifth in the East standings Monday, one game behind No. 4 Atlanta, a half-game ahead of the idle Pistons and now 2½ games clear of the 76ers, who host Boston on Tuesday.
- Technically, Marion was listed as a reserve in one game last season for Miami, when he played the final 52 seconds in Atlanta -- the game that started Dec. 19, 2007. By order of the NBA, the last 52 seconds were replayed March 8, after Marion was traded to Miami.
- It was stat night for the Heat. Wade got his 500th career dunk in the second quarter, became the franchise's all-time leader in free throws made and moved into second place on the Heat all-time field-goals-attempted list. C Jamaal Magloire grabbed his 4,000th rebound as well.
- Rapper Lil' Wayne was in attendance.
- The Clippers expect C Chris Kaman back after the All-Star break. Kaman, who resuming a shooting regimen, has battled a foot injury much of the season.

ELLISTON –– Having racked up some 475 points on its side of the scoreboard this season, Eastern Montgomery has put up plenty of look-good numbers in winning its first 11 games by an average of nearly 30 points per night.
Friday night against Galax, big numbers were a necessity.
Finding itself trailing at the half for just the second time this year, the Mustangs took control by erupting for 27 unanswered second-half points, claiming the school's first region title with a 41-28 win over the Maroon Tide.
HIGH POINT, N.C. — John Bassett Vaughan — former chairman, CEO and president of Galax-based Vaughan Furniture Company — received the American Home Furnishings Alliance's prestigious Distinguished Service Award during the group's 2010 annual meeting at the Sanctuary on Camelback Mountain in Scottsdale, Ariz., on Nov. 12.
Vaughan, who also served as chairman and CEO of Webb Furniture Enterprises in Galax, was lauded as a "civic-minded industrialist."
State highway officials plan to improve interstate snow removal in Southwest Virginia this winter by changing contractors and increasing incident supervision, aided by GPS tracking devices that pinpoint the location of plows.
Earlier this year, the Virginia Department of Transportation fired its previous interstate maintenance contractor, Infrastructure Corporation of America, for what VDOT called snow-related lapses along Interstate 81 and several other major roads.
HILLSVILLE — Some speakers thought the final draft of Carroll's comprehensive plan smacked of totalitarian controls, while others recommended the county officials assert more control over growth and development.
A few even recommended that it's time to think about adding zoning to the mix.
Phil McCraw, owner of Virginia 500 Fruit Market in Cana, compared Carroll's proposed comprehensive plan to the United Nation's Agenda 21 environmental initiative that began in 1992.
HILLSVILLE — The Cavalier Classic staff had designs on producing a quality yearbook and earned themselves a state championship as a result.
Shannon Dalton, their understandably proud teacher at Carroll County High School, called all students involved in yearbook together to celebrate the accomplishment last Thursday, under the pretense of getting a group photo.
Then teachers revealed the Virginia High School League Trophy Class Award, presenting it first to this year's editors, Wendy Burcham and Lauren Roper.
The Galax volleyball team wrapped up a dominant run through the Mountain Empire District by dominating the all-district voting as nine Maroon Tide players and their coach were named on the three teams, including four on the all-MED first team.
Galax finished the season with a 22-4 record, the most wins ever for the Maroon Tide, and advanced to the state tournament for the first time in school history after a runner-up finish in the Region C Division 1 tournament.
For the first time in its history, Galax will play a 13th football game. The Maroon Tide is certainly hoping 13 brings better luck than No. 3
Having notched two postseason wins for the first time ever, Galax (9-3) is faced with the formidable task of knocking off seemingly-invincible Eastern Montgomery (11-0) Friday as the two tangle for the Region C Division 1 championship on the Mustangs' home turf. Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m.
HILLSVILLE — When it comes to Carroll's next real estate reassessment, county officials will take a more hands-off approach.
The Carroll supervisors, at their Nov. 11 meeting, approved advertising a request for proposals seeking reassessment services.
The reassessment that came out in 2008 was done in-house.
County officials have calculated a cost of $312,500 for the required reassessment, spread out over two years.
Alleghany County citizens made it plain to the Virginia-Carolina Water Authority last week — they don't want fluoride in their water.
They cited health concerns with adding fluoride, which is aimed at promoting dental health.
A regional water system is under construction to provide water to the towns of Independence and Sparta, N.C., and Grayson and Alleghany counties. The Water Authority is made up of eight members representing the four jurisdictions.
INDEPENDENCE — Bona Dee Murray remembers going hungry when she and her mom ran out of food when she was just a young girl.
When their shelves were bare, churches helped to feed them.
About 10 years ago, it became Murray's dream for First United Methodist Church of Independence to collect food and donate it to those in need through Social Services.

A spirometer is an instrument that measures how well your child's lungs are working. To use one, your child breathes into a mouthpiece. The doctor may ask your child to breathe normally or to take a deep breath and blow the air quickly out of his or her lungs, like blowing up a balloon. A recording device measures the amount of air inhaled or exhaled and how much time each breath took. These measurements can help the doctor find out if your child has a lung problem, such as asthma.

| mobile-phone. It was also when Sun Microsystems, a computer-maker, decided to
| publish the specifications of one of its microprocessors, the UltraSPARC T1.
| The open-source hardware trend is now growing fast, says Adrian Bowyer, a
| mechanical engineer at the University of Bath and the inventor of the RepRap.

First off, I have to tell you that if you recorded the Texans vs. Colts, make sure you hang onto it because on Monday afternoon, I am going to have a blog entry where I go through down and distance and times of the game and break down a bunch of different plays on offense and defense. Included in my entry will be "film study." This entry is half done but it has already taken over 2 hours so I will finish it tonight and have it for you tomorrow.
As for the game, I think this loss will ultimately be the one that gets Gary Kubiak fired. I'm not talking about getting fired tomorrow and I don't really fault him for anything during the game, but when I said that the Tennessee game was a "must-win," I meant it. The Texans needed it in case they fell to the Colts. Instead, they lose to the Colts in Indy with a fourth quarter lead, lose to the Titans on national television in a game where Kubiak chose not to run another play to make it a shorter FG for Kris Brown, and he loses to the Colts yet again with a fourth quarter lead.
If you are counting, the Texans have now lost three straight games to the Colts with a fourth quarter lead, and they are losing almost every close game they play in this year. After four years, that will get you fired.
Let the record show that I think Kubiak is a good coach and can win in this league, but I'm not sure what I can do to back those feelings up since all I have is improved stats on both sides of the ball but not much in terms of improving winning percentages.
This loss was a team effort and if Kubiak ends up fired at the end of the season, this game will the turning point game, but there are several plays to point to.
– Chris Brown's fumble against the Jaguars as he was headed into the endzone.
– Matt Schaub throwing huge fourth quarter "pick six" interceptions against the Colts and Cardinals.
– Kris Brown's missed FGs against the Colts and Titans
– Mario Williams' inability to consistently rush the passer this year.
– Dunta Robinson failing to show up for the season like the franchise CB that he wants to be paid like.
– Steve Slaton's consistent habit of putting the ball on the ground and inability to break the long run.
– Dunta and company celebrating his big hit on a 5-yard gain by Joseph Addai and then having Peyton Manning quick snap them and throw a pass for a completion of 30 yards as the defense scrambled to get back to their spots after celebrating. Need proof?
Dunta went from the 15-yard line all the way down to about the 3-yard line celebrating. Manning went to the hurry-up either to keep the Texans from changing their package (which I doubt since they pretty much just sat in nickel) or because he saw the Texans were out of position on defense because they were celebrating down near the Colts endzone. Take a look at the second picture and notice how many players aren't even ready when the ball is snapped!
This team has just lost too many close games and too many fourth quarter leads in games they really needed for Kubiak to end up surviving this season unless he and the Texans can pull out wins from here on out which seems unlikely.

CBNNews.com - Voter reaction across the country to the second presidential debate between Democrat Barack Obama and Republican John McCain Tuesday night was as varied as the fundamental differences that divide the two candidates.
Americans watched the town hall style debate broadcast live from Nashville's Belmont University on television networks and streamed on the Internet.
Billed by some pundits as round two in the fight for the presidency, the 90-minute debate focused on the economy, foreign policy and energy independence.
Some had hoped the town hall forum would generate more questions from mainstream America. Even the president of the college hosting the debate said he wasn't impressed with the number of questions.
"I wish we could have heard a few more questions from the floor," said Belmont's Dr. Robert Fisher. "That's not many in 90 minutes."
Reaction in The Big Apple
The debate left some in a group of undecided voters in New York City still undecided.
Nina Erler of Ridgefield Park, New Jersey says she may lean toward voting for Obama.
"I was a little disappointed in Obama," she said. "I thought he did a good job, but for some reason, I expected more detail in some of his policies."
Julian Ramos works as a human resources consultant in the Bronx. He says in the Democratic Primary he voted for Hillary Clinton. Now after watching the second debate, Ramos says he might not vote at all.
"That's the biggest irritation of all the debates I watch," Ramos said. "They build in their answers with vocabulary, verbage, jargon, and zero answer."
One viewer in New York named Donna e-mailed her reaction to the debate.
"How can Barack Obama change his mind so quickly on serious issues?" she wrote. "This strategy seems to add up to winning at all costs, instead of thinking through the issues."
Clifton, N.Y., resident Beth Johansson says the debate left her undecided and still frustrated.
"It's politics and its frustrating, because you want straight answers," Johansson explained. "For me I want facts. I am so tired of getting snippets of facts. Show me the facts."
Reaction in The Windy City
In Illinois, there was still great interest in the debate even though political insiders believe Obama will carry the state on election day.
In suburban Northbrook, Democratic volunteers gathered to watch the broadcast. They believe their candidate did very well, especially on the subject of the economy.
"I'm getting more comfortable with how Obama would handle it," undecided voter Jack Strom told a reporter at the event. "McCain certainly understands the Senate and he understands the Congress. But I'm just concerned that he's been part of the deciders who've brought us to where we are right now."
Carmen Corbett says she is now leaning towards Obama, because of the economy.
"And he will get the right people in place to work with him to solve this problem," she said "It's not going to be overnight and we all have to appreciate it's not going to be overnight. But I believe that he will be the one and that unfortunately I just honestly don't believe that John McCain, first of all, gets it."
Click the player to get reactions from voters attending debate watch parties in Chicago.
Meanwhile in Chicago, Republicans met to listen and cheer on McCain. They feel his performance will help Republican candidates in the upcoming election. They are not giving up on anything.
"John McCain and Sarah Palin are helping some of our state reps and state senators, who two months ago were probably going to be run over by the Obama tsunami," said Illinois Republican Party's Jim Durkin. "And that's not going to happen right now."
"I appreciate tonight how it's not being personal in the sense other than the records," said Corine Williams. "I think it's very important to discuss the records because I know Mr. Obama, in particular, he's my senator. But I really feel like he hasn't actually represented us very well."
Back in Nashville, officials in both political parties continued to express their enthusiasm for their candidates.
"I was surprised that Sen. McCain disagreed on the approach to Pakistan," said Democratic Party Chairman Howard Dean. "I think most Americans believe that Barack Obama is right and that if we have the opportunity to capture or kill Osama Bin Laden we should take it, no matter where Bin Laden happens to be."
When asked about John McCain's performance, former Republican Tennessee senator Fred Thompson said he couldn't have been more proud of McCain.
"Just when things are turning against him, he buckles down even harder," Thompson said. "He ratchets up another notch. He's tough. He's resilient, even when you counted him out, he comes back. We've seen that time and time again. He amazes me."

"Nick Chiericozzi, Mark Perro and Chris Hansell recorded this album at Python Patrol in 2010. Rich Samis joined the band shortly after and is now their full time drummer. Having three songwriters in the band allows them to pull from innumerable post punk sources, referencing drone, metal, shoegaze, and even Spaceman 3 lyrics on Leave Home. Recording to tape for the first time here, using elements of distortion, feedback, pop hooks, and a couple of beautifully destructive instrumental passages, The Men have been described by Mishka as, "more composers than musicians." They have breathed new life into the genre of hardcore and created a seminal album that is truly for punks of all ages." (label info)

Seven weeks after baby Josie's surprise early arrival, her relieved parents Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar are talking to PEOPLE about the tiny micropreemie, who is taking breast milk through a tube and weighs 2 lbs. 3 oz.
Born at 25 weeks to Jim Bob and Michelle, of the hit TLC reality series changing its name this week to 19 Kids and Counting, little Josie Brooklyn was a mere 1 lb. 6 oz. when she arrived Dec. 10, after Michelle was diagnosed with preeclampsia.
"Years ago, a baby this small wouldn't have lived an hour," says Jim Bob, 44. "We are so grateful for the ability to help her."
He and Michelle, 43, have moved 17 of their other kids (their oldest Josh, 21, and his wife, Anna, 21, have a baby girl and live on their own) to Little Rock, Ark. from their home in Tontitown, Ark., to be closer to Josie, who remains in intensive care at Arkansas Children's Hospital.
"It's a miracle she's doing so well," says Jim Bob. Agrees Michelle: "It is incredible what the doctors and nurses can do to save the life of this little person."
It has been an up and down saga of survival for tiny Josie. "Doctors tell us, 'never trust a preemie,' because you can't know what is going to happen," says Jim Bob. "It is a very day-to-day thing. It is the hardest thing we've ever been through."
Josie's difficult birth has brought the family closer together, say Jim Bob and Michelle, and they continue to be grateful for every moment they have with their new daughter.
"We don't know if there is going to be another big hill to go up," she says. "We are grateful for the wonderful days when she has been good. We know at any moment, things could change."
Josie's arrival will be showcased in 19 Kids and Counting: Special Duggar Delivery, airing Jan. 31 on TLC, and a new season of their show will debut in February.

This was the year of the new and the different.
I did not make it to all the musical events I might have hoped to. But many of the happenings I did attend will linger in my mind. The imagination behind these events shows a trend toward experimentation in how music is presented and promoted, a trend that, with luck, will help build audiences. With the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra doing much better than most other orchestras, and multiple musical events a week, we must be doing something right.
Here are some highlights of 2012 that stand out.
In March, the wonderful pianist Richard Goode's recital at Slee Hall, a co-production with the Ramsi P. Tick Memorial Concert Series, was something I will recall with pleasure. He played Schumann, Brahms and Chopin. The hall was packed with all ages. Goode is always great and on this occasion showed that even established classics, played superbly, can be an adventure.
In April, organist Dennis James came to Shea's Performing Arts Center to join the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra in accompanying the 1925 silent film "The Phantom of the Opera." It was the first time since the 1930s that a live orchestra had performed to a silent movie at Shea's and it was spellbinding. James' synchronicity on the Mighty Wurlitzer boggled the mind. It was definitely an event to remember.
June brought Nickel City Opera's production of Puccini's "La Boheme." It was a delightful production, set a record for NCO ticket sales and shows the five-year-old company is on a steady artistic ascent.
In October, the Community Music School held a unique event at Kleinhans Music Hall's Mary Seaton Room to celebrate the 88th birthday of the school and of famous vocal coach Andy Anselmo. Cabaret acts flew in from New York, including Eric Comstock and Barbara Fasano ("The New York Nightclub World's Most Celebrated Team"), and Anselmo's current protegee, Caroline Jones. Anselmo recently retired to Buffalo and now that he is not going to New York as much, New York is coming to him. And to us. He makes the city richer by his presence.
October at the BPO was dominated by a memorable visit by Three Dog Night. Band mainstay Cory Wells is from Buffalo, and this was an event that you heard talked about a lot around town. The philharmonic's rock-themed concerts are not to everyone's taste, but they draw big crowds and are doing a lot to get new audiences into Kleinhans.
The Metropolitan Opera is starting 2013 with Donizetti's "Maria Stuarda." The opera, about Mary, Queen of Scots, is new to them. Buffalo beat the Met to the punch by staging "Maria Stuarda" in November at St. Joseph's University Church. Beyond the music, it was beautiful to behold, with glorious costumes and staging.
November brought another event that had Buffalo buzzing: Veteran poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko, a famed Soviet dissident, came to read his poetry in conjunction with a BPO performance of Shostakovich's Symphony No. 13. Not only was the occasion odd and arresting, but there was that beautiful Shostakovich Piano Concerto No. 2, with Michael Boriskin as soloist. The piano concerto had never been performed with the BPO and it's a marvelous piece. Boriskin played it with energy and wit.
Speaking of zesty soloists, cellist Zuill Bailey gave, in December, one of the top BPO performances of the year. His unorthodox, passionate approach to a Haydn concerto – a piece that, in other hands, could easily have been staid and conventional – was impressive and showed that it's possible to put old music in a new light.

Last Friday, I was downtown at the Hume Building. The parking lot drain had frozen, water was backed up and the place was flooded. As I stood among the ripped up carpet and ruined drywall I couldn't help but think about my previous flood encounters.
My first flood experience came in college. The Red Cedar River runs right through the middle of Michigan State's campus, flowing westerly in an idyllic, almost postcard-like setting with ducks and waterfalls. The river is so beautiful that it's included in the first line of the Michigan State fight song.
But the fight song never mentions the carp.
In the spring of my sophomore year, an ice dam caused the river to flood the campus. Thousands of students watched anxiously as the water crept toward the major lecture halls eventually overtaking them and causing final exams to be postponed. This resulted in much revelry but no extra studying.
But, the water did more than flood the campus, it flooded the golf course behind my dorm. This may not seem like a big deal, but when your daily routine includes hopping over a barbed wire fence and playing the four holes not visible from the clubhouse over and over again, it was quite the style crimp.
When the water finally receded, the course was covered with carp. Giant carp. Giant WHITE carp. Those carp were the ugliest fish ever placed on this Earth. It's hard to believe the same Divine Being that created the USC Cheerleader Uniform could have created this fish.
They weren't even white. They were almost clear and they had red eyes. In addition to being ugly, the fish weren't too smart . When the water headed back toward the river, the carp didn't go with it (a fact that should be noted by all evolution theororists.)
So, we headed out to play a few holes of illegal golf and there were HUNDREDS, maybe even thousands of these gigantic albino carp covering the course. And if it wasn't bad enough that you had to stand among the fish to take a shot, they weren't always dead. You'd be in the middle of your backswing and "flip!" Tiger Woods has a conniption if someone clicks a camera in his backswing, he should try hitting a drive with 20-pound carp thrashing around his feet.
The next day we went out again, only things had gotten worse. Apparently a herd of raccoons had stumbled across the dying masses and had called every other raccoon in the 517 area code. What were once thousands of huge albino carp, were now thousands of huge albino carp ripped to shreds. It actually looked like they exploded, there were carp chunks everywhere. I think we only played nine holes that day.
My next flood happened at work. I was working for a very large steel company in Grandville, and my office was about a mile from the Grand River. One fine spring day, it wasn't raining or anything, a co-worker, a guy named Ken Fusee, was walking across the conference room and the carpet made a squishing sound. Not only did it squish, you could see his footprints.
The place was crawling with engineers and a team of them gathered in the conference room to witness the phenomena. Meanwhile, the people in the offices upstairs noticed that water was creeping into the parking lot. Usually when you think of a flood you think of water overflowing river banks and crashing against your door. This flood was coming up from underneath.
The problem with a flood like that is you have no idea when it's going to stop. It could just get the carpet wet. It might rise an inch, it might rise three feet. We got the three feet variety, and we got it pretty quick. Scramble mode ensued.
I remember watching guys roll up their pant legs and wading out to try and save some of the secretary's cars. As each car was saved a cheer would go up from their fellow employees who'd gathered to watch. One guy was a little heavy and the car he was going to save had water about a quarter of an inch below the car door, he gingerly waded toward the car so as not to create a wake as the crowd cheered him on. But when he opened the door and sat down, the car dipped two inches, flooding the interior. Boos followed.
One of the lasting images I have of that flood was a gigantic pump placed on a small hill next to the office. The pump was sucking thousands of gallons an hour out of the office and into the parking lot which, I believe, was then flowing right back into the office. Picture a flooded tennis court with a net in the middle and trying to dry one side of the court by pumping water over the net onto the other side of the court.
When all the water finally receded, they brought in gigantic fans to dry things out. I guess it would have dried up faster if they would have pumped in pure hydrogen, too, but that would have been explosive. So in the end using just regular old oxygen ... won.

2003 Jeep Wrangler Freedom Edition 4.0 inline 6 from North America
Let's hit the trails!
Left front axle seal at 36,800mi. - dealer replaced both sides under warranty.
Fuel gauge works about 99% of the time. Seems to be flaky at anything under 1/4 tank.
Randomly started beeping at me as I was driving down the road. No gauges out of line, no warning lights, and only happened once and never came back. Will keep an eye on it.
General Comments:
This is a little different than what I came from (Grand Cherokee), but I've grown up around CJs and Wranglers so I knew what I was in for.
I do love this Jeep though, peppy with the stick shift and pretty good gas mileage. Avg. 18-20mpg.
Its pretty cool being able to fold the top down and go for a cruise. Can't find anything else that you can take both the top and the doors off. Feeling of "freedom" (kind of like the model name).
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
Review Date: 10th October, 2006
11th Oct 2006, 08:06
Are you sure that you didn't leave your directional on when your Jeep started beeping? '03 Wranglers had a nice feature that if you forgot your turn signal on they would beep to remind you after a minute or so. (At least my '03 Sahara did)
17th Oct 2006, 22:20
<<original poster replying to comment>>
No, my turn signal wasn't on. I am aware of that feature though. It had the symptoms like the turn signal was on because it would stop beeping when I came to a stop, but it would start after about a mile or so. Hasn't done it since and I would still love the Jeep anyway.

Try a vente green tea, hot.
Every day at ten-ish, one of my coworkers and I make the sojourn to the local Starbucks where I get a sugar free vanilla breve latte.
Could I be enjoying a healthier breakfast than this? Probably. Would I have better results if I quit my latte habit? Most likely. Would I miss the welcome break from the screen and the chance to chat with my coworker and the baristas? Most definitely.
I can admit to a SBUX addiction. Nothing wrong with it. Nope.
"Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts."-Winston Churchill
"Keep Calm and Carry On"-British Wartime Poster
"Don't Panic"
Try a vente green tea, hot.
Starbucks, 95% of their items serve no nutritional purpose. And I'm a Seattle native, love Starbucks, but it's trash.
* Espresso or Americano - yes, just plain caffine.
* Latte - no, they don't have raw milk and the fat barista will give you a hard time if you ask for a heavy cream latte, many stores don't even have heavy cream, or won't let you have it. No coconut milk.
* Fancy drinks - no, all sugar bombs, or soy crap, or low-fat-skim crap, no bonus to you from putting that into your body.
* Baked goods section - NO WAY, a huge array of options you can eat to gain diabetes and obesity -- sugar, carbs, sugar, carbs, sugar...
When I end up there with friends it's dopio con panna.
In the United States though, there really aren't any mom and pop restaurants left. Just big chains and maybe a few small one-offs, all trying to maximize profit and be famous, NOT trying to provide a simple healthy meal to feed the masses. It's about low quality, large plate size, high flavor, wow factor, and "don't blame us when you get cancer, it was your choice to eat here".
Fast food doesn't need to be total trash -- a person could start a place that served cheapo frozen Costco salmon plus carrots, fried in a pan with grass-fed butter, 500 calories, $5. Why not? But such a place I've never encountered in the states. Asia has cheap and healthy, so it is possible.
I don't drink coffee so I hasn't really been to a Starbucks. My fast food of choice I'd, Moe's or Chipolte. Both have grass fed need and guacamole.
I think anyone who has gotten this far already knows that fast "food" is generally pretty awful in terms of health, sustainability, morality, etc. So all education on the evils of fast food aside, if I for whatever reason find myself dining out, I simply try to make reasonable paleo/primal choices. You know what's primal and what's not. So just do what you can to make the best choices based on your own priorities. Or not. A couple weeks ago I had a bacon cheeseburger with onion rings and ranch dressing and a diet coke from a small family owned diner. It was a rare treat where I didn't make the slightest attempt to be paleo or primal. And I didn't feel guilty about it one bit.

As a Starbucks employee, I can list what Starbucks serves thats primal;
Black coffee
Heavy Cream (you know, if that's your thing)
Kerrygold brand butter (you will get strange looks if you ask for it in your coffee, but you can get it free)
Now as far as I know, that's it. No food, that's for sure.
I drink a tall hot coffee in the mornings, and if I need a pick me up, then I have an iced grande unsweetened half black/ half green no water tea. The black tea curbs cortisol, and green gives loads of antioxidants. And I sure as heck stay away from the foods.
As for restaurants, it's not "cool" to like fast food restaurants (even if its for wrong reasons), so find some small coffee shop, bar, or music venue to counter suggest when your friends get some McCravings for a Fourthmeal.

JOHNSON – A name has been chosen for the revamped Johnson grocery store. At a special meeting on Wednesday, July 31, owner Mike Comeau announced that the new store will be called 'Johnson's Sterling Market'. The name was chosen after a contest was held during which Johnson residents could submit their ideas for the name of the store. The meeting announcing the name was held at the Johnson Municipal Offices beginning at 7 p.m. and was attended by roughly 70 local residents, including the individual who submitted the winning name, David Grozinsky.
Mike Comeau, the owner of the new grocery store in Johnson, stands with store manager Ray Williams as they unveil the new name and logo for the former Grand Union. The new name for the store, Johnson's Sterling Market, was chosen from nearly 200 submissions from the residents of the town. The new name and logo of the store was announced at a public meeting at the Johnson Municipal Building on Wednesday, July 31. Nearly 70 people attended the event. Martin photo
The meeting began with a brief statement by Johnson resident Ben Waterman, who was one of several individuals who committed to seeking out ways to ensure the return of a grocery store in Johnson after Grand Union was flooded out. After Waterman explained the history of the project and how Comeau's involvement came about, he introduced the new store owner.

What advice would you give someone starting this project? I added a seam to the finished project about a quarter inch from the top. That is to hold the lining down and in place. I also added 1/8" to the width to accommodate a smart cover, but I don't think it needs it. I may add 1/4" to the length though. I think, maybe, it would cover the top just a bit more.
Nice! Thank you for sharing!!
I love the clean lines and overall look of this case. Have you considering creating a revision to include a book style cover? I am looking for one that I don't have to remove my ipad from that has elastic corner straps to hold it in place.
Hi Wink. Thank you for your kind works. I haven't done any book style covers. I got the pattern from here, just to protect my iPad from banging in my purse. I have the magnetic smart cover on it already. I haven't found a pattern I like yet, for that style of cover, however I say some covers on etsy that looked like they make stands, so you can leave your iPad in. There may be patterns on here too, but I saw this one, and liked it right away, and was easy to sew. Hope that helps. Feel free to write back if you want any more info.
Yes - I do plan on making another style! Thanks for your input, it's always good to hear features that help with the way you use your iPad. :0)

Nicholas Wohlfart/Walfart/Walford and wife Caroline and family came to America on the "Snow Charoltte". They settled in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania which has strong ties to Berks County through marriage and death records. They are buried in the Old Goshenhoppen Church Cemetery in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.
It would not surprise me if you husband's decendants aren't related to mine since they settled in connecting counties.

I've just purchased a palm m105 and even though device works
properly, pc doesn't seem to respond to hotsync attempts.
When I press the button on cradle, a window flashes in my desktop
showing hotsync progress. And then, nothing. It simply freezes down.
When I try to view the log, software can't find it. I've upgraded to
Palm Desktop 4.1.4, but nothing changed.
I'm using a windows XP SP2 with admin authorization.
here's the workflow :
I install the cd came w/ palm, which is palm desktop 3.1.x,
I download palm 4.1.4 and install it. Create a new user named utku and
owerwrite all the prefs to : "desktop overwrites handheld"
I perform a hard reset.
I press the hotsync button on the cradle.
window opens in the desktop, mentioning progress has began
nothing happens, it just freeze.
gone through this several times...
I've tried setting COM1 to 9600 with flow control off on both PDA and
PC, but it didn't work...
Does anyone know how to solve this problem ??

Raising the Grade (and the Comprehension)
By Kristy Brady
This won't come as a surprise to most people reading this: Science isn't easy. In early November, The New York Times published an article entitled, "Why Science Majors Change Their Minds (It's Just So Darn Hard)". The article cited data from a recent UCLA study showing that nearly 60 percent of students initially pursuing a degree in science and engineering, including pre-med students, ultimately switched majors or dropped out altogether. 60 percent!
There are a lot of reasons why students change their minds. But a couple of them will, again, be unsurprising to Biology alumni. First, there are typically a load of tedious, time-consuming prerequisite courses that need to be passed before the fun finally starts. And second, if a student is interested in maintaining a sterling GPA, it is well-known that grade inflation makes that job much easier in the humanities and social sciences, a topic discussed in some detail in the aforementioned NYT article.
In the last six years, Biology faculty have been hard at work minimizing the deterrent effects of poor grades and countless prerequisites. As for the latter, the number is drastically lower than it was, for example, when I was an undergraduate here. At that time you needed a full year of chemistry before enrolling in the first introductory biology course, and there were math prerequisties for chemistry. Now, any undergrad can enroll in their first biology class without any prerequisites!
Several faculty in the department founded the Biology Education Research Group (BERG) in 2005 to conduct research on classroom teaching methods and efficacy. Their mission is to improve students' comprehension of course material, thereby enabling them to earn better grades.
There are three regularly publishing members of BERG: Scott Freeman, Mary Pat Wenderoth, and Alison Crowe. (This group is also a powerhouse in teaching – among other accolades, both Freeman and Wenderoth are recipients of the prestigious UW Distinguished Teaching Award). These three form the core of BERG, which meets weekly throughout the academic year. Freeman says that about 30 different people come to at least one BERG meeting each quarter, with each weekly meeting attracting about 15 people. Attendees include other Biology faculty, graduate students, and post-docs, as well as faculty from other units on campus, local community colleges, and UW-Bothell.
BERG's first study was funded by a small grant from the College of Arts & Sciences. With funding for just a few quarters of graduate student support, they were able to collect enough data to publish their first paper in 2007. Today, BERG has both the #1 and #3 most-cited papers in the top journal for science education research, Life Sciences Education.
BERG's first few years' of research revealed that students perform remarkably better when the instructor forgoes traditional lecturing for interactive teaching methods, which include a wide variety of tools, such as calling on students to answer questions in lecture, gathering class-wide responses to questions using clickers (an electronic response device), and in-class group exercises. The improved performance is particulary impressive among students from disadvantaged backgrounds. These results were so striking that they were published by the top-tier journal Science this June, marking only the third time in its history that Science has published research related to education.
Two of the three introductory biology courses have active learning material developed for them, and all of the Biology faculty teaching those two courses utilize these resources. While learning a new teaching style takes time, data is something that science faculty respond to, so there was no hesitation by those teaching the two courses with established material in adopting the new tools. The group is now working on developing tools for the final course in the series.
Freeman describes their studies investigating the impact of teaching style on student performance as BERG's "first generation research". Now, he says, they are launching their second generation of research. Though a linear trajectory is a bit of a misrepresentation in this case; Freeman's research trajectory looks more like a tree with the first generation as the trunk and the second as a whole host of branches. True to typical research form, BERG's initial study has generated a number of additional questions.
Leading the pack, however, is whether and how the tools developed for UW Biology's introductory courses can be implemented elsewhere. This question caught the interest of The National Science Foundation, which has funded BERG to find out. This past summer Freeman sent an exploratory email to colleagues at other institutions gauging interest in their involvement in a trial implementing active learning tools in their classrooms. In the span of one week in August, a notoriously difficult time to get in touch with anyone in the academic community, Freeman heard back from people at nine different institutions. Clearly BERG is filling an acute need in the academic world! As a result, next summer introductory biology instructors from at least three schools will come to UW Biology to learn how to incorporate the materials developed here into their own curricula.
I can't report on how many UW students intending to major in biology change their minds and leave science, but I can tell you that biology is currently the single largest major on campus: We graduate well over 500 students a year. This doesn't mean that science is any easier than it was, but the data do suggest that we are better at giving students the resources that they need to succeed. And that is a very laudable achievement indeed.
To learn more about the biology education research paper that was published in Science, read the UW Today article: http://www.washington.edu/news/articles/revamped-bio-course-improves-performance-2013-especially-among-educationally-disadvantaged-students-2013-in-spite-of-budget-cuts

SACRAMENTO, CA -A former Elk Grove police officer and two other men entered guilty pleas to mortgage fraud charges Friday, reports the U.S. Attorney's Office, Eastern District of California.
U.S. Attorney spokeswoman Lauren Horwood said Ali Khalil, 32, the ex-police officer, pleaded guilty to wire fraud and structuring financial transactions to evade currency transaction reporting requirements. Amanullah Khalil, 39, pleaded guilty to lying on loan applications. Wahidullah Khalil, 27, a former banker, pleaded guilty to structuring financial transactions to evade currency transaction reporting requirements.
Ali Kahlil and Amanullah Kahlil were accused of making false statements on loan applications to purchase homes, including mispresprenting income and assets as well as falsely saying the homes would be their primary residences.
Ali Kahlil admitted to splitting loan proceeds into two bank deposits of $9,800 for the purpose of evading currency reporting requirements that are triggered by deposits over $10,000, Horwood said.
Wahidullah Khalil was also accused of doing the same.
Horwood said Wahidullah Khalil used the deposits along with funds from the other two defendants to buy a home in Folsom.
As part of the plea agreement, all men must to forfeit any interest in the Folsom residence.
Ali Khalil and Amanullah Khalil will be required to pay restitution to the defrauded lenders. Horwood said the restitution is expected to be approximately $300,000 for Ali Khalil and approximately $486,000 for Amanullah Khalil.
The defendants are scheduled to be sentenced Nov. 2. They could receive a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison and a $1 million fine.
