How can I draw animated GIFs on a QCanvas? I need them to be
transparent, so image placed below another one will be partially
visible. I tried to use QMovie to handle GIFs and then draw its
framePixmap(), but they were not animated.
Is QCanvas/QMovie the best way to have animation in my application? Is
there a better (faster, using less cpu) way to do it?
Thank you in advance.

Macon, Ga. - Freshman Corey Walden sank a pair of free throws and hit a layup to put Stetson up by a point with 28 seconds remaining, yet the game went to overtime where the Hatters could not hold on falling 72-62 to Mercer. With the loss Stetson dropped to 7-19 overall and 5-10 in the A-Sun. Mercer improved to 10-15 overall and jumped another game ahead of Stetson in the conference standings at 7-7.
Walden (Ormond Beach, Fla.) led the Hatters in scoring with 21 points, followed by Luis Jacobo (Sanford, Fla.) with 15. Walden was 5-for-13 from the field, 3-of-9 from long range and a perfect 8-for-8 from the line. He also played every minute for the second game in a row. Joel Naburgs (Victoria, Australia) led the Hatters under the glass with six rebounds. Mercer's Mark Hall led all scorers with 23 points followed by Brian Mills with 21.
Offensively the Hatters outshot the Bears 45% to 40% and outscored them 26-16 in the paint. The difference, however were the turnovers. Stetson gave up the ball 21 times and Mercer took advantage scoring 23 points off those miscues. The Hatters were able to tally just 10 points off Bear turnovers.
With its win Mercer evened the season series. Stetson defeated the Bears 79-72 in the A-Sun CSS Game of the Week on January 14 in DeLand.
"We have come so close. It would be entirely reasonable for us to be .500 in league right now", said Stetson head coach Derek Waugh. "We are the second youngest team in the country and we have lost to a lot of senior players making plays. Mark Hall and Brian Mills did that tonight."
Next up the Hatters remain in Georgia to take on and Kennesaw State on Saturday, February 12 at 7:30 p.m. Stetson fans can catch the games on A-Sun TV via Hatter Vision. Be sure to follow the Hatters on Twitter at @StetsonSID, on Facebook at Stetson Athletics, and check out the Stetson Hatters channel onYouTube.

"These pit bull attacks are getting tiresome. It is so easy for pit bull owners to blame it on irresponsible owners regardless of the breed, when (many times) it is a pit bull. Why is that?"

SALEM - Republican candidates Sharon Kennedy and Robert Cupp expressed similar views on the role of an Ohio Supreme Court Justice during a recent visit to the area, both seeing the job as limited to honoring the Constitution, not rewriting it.
"I think Ohioans want justices who answer the legal question before them without broadening it," Kennedy said.
Cupp, who already sits on the high court and is seeking re-election, said the justice's role is to apply the plain meaning of the Constitution to the case that's come before the court for resolution, "not to be a super legislator or put in what the justice thinks the law ought to be."
Kennedy is running against appointed Democrat Justice Yvette McGee Brown,who's seeking to retain the seat she gained when outgoing Gov. Ted Strickland appointed her before leaving office.
The 50-year-old lives in Liberty Township in Butler County where she's been serving as a Common Pleas Court judge in the Domestic Relations Division since 1999. She said she decided to run for Ohio Supreme Court because she's concerned about the direction of Ohio. She said Ohio's highest court needs to have justices who believe in the separation of powers of the Constitution and adhere to it.
She touts 27 years of dedicated service to justice, beginning with three years as a police officer in Hamilton, one of only seven judges in the state who have served on the streets in law enforcement. If elected, she would be the first police officer to serve on the Ohio Supreme Court.
She also served in the Common Pleas Court General Division as a law clerk and as director of the victim/witness division, in private practice handling all types of cases, as a part-time magistrate in Butler County Area Courts and as special counsel for Attorney General Betty Montgomery.
She earned a bachelor's degree in social work from the University of Cincinnati and her law degree from the University of Cincinnati College of Law.
Kennedy summed up her race with Brown by describing it as a "difference of judicial philosophy and service." She quoted Brown as saying that Brown was looking to move the law forward, but Kennedy said that's not her view of the justice system.
"Our job is to uphold the law as written. We don't get to end game it," she said.
In court every day handling the issues that come up when a marriage ends, including child custody and visitation battles, she said, "I solve community problems one family at a time."
She also said she believes in going out into the community to talk about the justice system and what the courts do. She said there's a disconnect between the people and the court system. Kennedy described herself as a workaholic. She's single and was raised in a very traditional working class family where her parents told her it didn't matter where she came from, she could do whatever she wanted to do as long as she committed to her dream, worked hard and never gave up.
When she's not on the bench, she shoots clays. She's also an avid reader of crime dramas and likes to sew and cook.
Cupp, 61, has served in all three branches of government, beginning with the executive branch in the city of Lima as assistant law director and city prosecutor and as Allen County Commissioner. He served 16 years in the Ohio Senate representing the 12th Senate District, with his final four years as President Pro Tempore, the second-highest position in the senate. He said he gained broad experience in different fields of law while serving. He also had 25 years in private practice.
After leaving the senate due to term limits, he served on the Ohio Court of Appeals, Third Appellate District, from 2003 to 2006. He was elected to the Supreme Court of Ohio in November 2006 and began his service on the high court in 2007.
Cupp earned a bachelor's degree in politicial science from Ohio Northern University and his law degree from Ohio Northern University Pettit College of Law.
He said his approach is "to help maintain for Ohio a system of justice that's stable, constant and fair."
He said he doesn't try to make up new law, to rewrite the statutes or rewrite statutes by unusual or creative interpretation. He said there's value in a stable legal environment. He said it's good for the economic revitalization of Ohio.
Cupp decided to seek re-election because he enjoys the work, it's challenging and he feels he can make a contribution. He described himself as "deliberate, thoughtful and consistent."
"I believe in judicial restraint. A justice's role is limited and should not intrude on the policy-making authority of the legislature or the governor," he said.
He and his wife, Libby, have been married 34 years. They have two sons and two grandchildren. Cupp grew up on a farm and the farmer in him remains, but mostly with gardening and growing roses and fruit trees.

Thursday 10th June, 2010
at NovaUCD, University College Dublin, Ireland
While women may no longer be one of Donald Akenson's 'great unknowns' of Irish migration and despite increasing scholarly attention in recent years, women remain marginal in many accounts of the Irish diaspora. This interdisciplinary symposium brings together leading scholars of diaspora in geography, history and sociology from across Britain and Ireland and aims to take stock of current work in the field. A number of speakers will reflect on recent theoretical perspectives, indicating how concepts such as transnationalism and diaspora might shape the study of Irish women abroad and suggesting avenues for future research. Featuring papers on Irish women's engagement with the British empire, the Catholic church, concepts of modernity, and economic development, the symposium will address the experience of Irish women in the diaspora from the nineteenth century through to the present day. The symposium will conclude with a plenary discussion reflecting on women's position within the diaspora.
Speakers include Mary E. Daly (UCD), Breda Gray (University of Limerick), Mary J. Hickman (London Metropolitan University), Karly Kehoe (UHI Millennium Institute),
Jennifer Redmond (NUI Maynooth), Louise Ryan (Middlesex University), Bronwen Walter (Anglia Ruskin University) and
Charlotte Wildman (University of Nottingham).

Success Story A
Recently our team responded to a client in the Coating Industry who needed immediate service on an Oxidizer. Within 24 hours, we were on site and initiating the removal of the damaged areas and installation of a replacement. In less than 3 days, the repaired sections and components were in place and completely functional. Our client, who expected the process to take over a week based on past experience with other Groups in the Industry, was overjoyed by the efficiency of our team.

Volunteering a £300,000 gift
08 December 2004
Tyneside: A hospital entrance foyer is in-line for a makeover - thanks to £300,000 raised by volunteers.
The North Tyneside Hospital WRVS - now the Hospital Voluntary Service - has collected the cash from their shop at the hospital in North Shields to spend on brightening the entrance for patients.
Today a cheque is being presented to Northumbria Healthcare, which runs North Tyneside General Hospital.
Irene Blacklidge, project manager for the HVS, said it was a tremendous achievement and a credit to the 170 volunteers who help to keep the service going.
"This is money given by local people for local people and every penny will be used in North Tyneside Hospital," she said.

Success and the City
It was a weekend full of hope -- the City of Hope, that is. The Duarte-based medical campus celebrated the 50th anniversary of its organized research program at its annual weekend-long convention. Some 1,500 delegates representing fundraising headquarters from almost every major American city converged on the Beverly Hilton. Honored were City of Hope's Director of Radioimmunotherapy Dr. Andrew Raubitshek and Division of Research/Immunology Chair Jack Shively. Comedian Norm Crosby, who is currently on his ninth two-year term as the organization's national ambassador of goodwill, joked, "City of Hope came up with a cure ... they haven't even developed the disease yet!"
At Monday's awards luncheon, the families of Ben and Beverly Horowitz and David and Denny Marks were honored for their collective commitment to the institute, which has pioneered major advances in oncology, diabetes treatment and hematology.
The Horowitz' son, Universal Music Group's President and COO Zach Horowitz, heads City of Hope's Music and Entertainment Industry Group, which plans the Rock for Hope fundraiser every year.
On Monday evening, an entire galaxy of television stars, including City of Hope spokeswoman and "Brady Bunch" mom Florence Henderson, Traci Bingham ("Baywatch"), Patrika Darbo ("Days of Our Lives") and Gervase ("Survivor"), all brought star power to the black-tie affair.
The weekend's emotional peak came on Saturday night, when Honey Nut Cheerios creator Stephen Hata told how City of Hope pulled him through his darkest moment, after being diagnosed with leukemia three years ago. The organization found a Hawaiian resident named Chris to be a blood marrow donor -- no easy task, since historically donors from the Asian community have been scarce.
Today, Hata has made a full recovery. Not only has he regained his faith, but he has formed an organization called Asians for Miracle Marrow Matches in an effort to give back. Hata has since developed a close bond with Chris, with whom he now shares the same DNA. He recalled a conversation they had, in which he joked, "Hey, Chris, if you ever commit a crime, don't leave any blood evidence."
Attack of the Killer B's
From Beverly Hills, it was on to the Santa Monica Airport, where the House of Justice entered the Love Shack at the Bet Tzedek Justice Ball. What better venue to see the B-52's than at the Museum of Flying, underneath actual British Spitfires suspended from the ceiling? On this Bastille Day evening, thousands of young professionals charged the hip fundraiser like an unruly Parisian mob storming the prison. Not hurting any was local favorite Boogie Knights, following the B-52's with their mega-'fros, white suits and arsenal of '70s covers. Seen at the scene were: Jason Kravits ("The Practice"), Noah Emmerich ("The Truman Show"), Timothy Busfield ("The West Wing"), Joshua Malina ("Sports Night"), and Byron Allen, who has a flashy cameo in the just-released "America's Sweethearts," with Julia Roberts and Catherine Zeta-Jones.
Justice Ball founder and Jump Investors CEO Randall Kaplan, who is stepping down from chairing the event he created, announced that Jennifer Kleinert will pick up the ball as of next summer, with Marc Linden. Kaplan added that this year's Ball raised $440,000 toward Bet Tzedek Legal Services, a beneficiary agency of The Jewish Federation of Greater Los Angeles that provides free legal services for the poor.
"I really want to make sure that it remains a young professional event and an avenue to give them an opportunity to be involved in the charity," said Kleinert, the younger sister of Jewish Federation PR Director Michelle Kleinert. The real estate litigator used to clerk at Bet Tzedek's Valley offices, and has served on the fundraiser's planning committee all five years.
Stern's Earned It

Fort Carson, Colo., 6:25 a.m.: Inside a condominium on this dusty Army base, Sue Bearer savors her last few moments of peace, sipping coffee and taking a drag from her cigarette.
6:35 a.m.: All hell breaks loose.
It starts benignly enough, as 9-year-old Dustin trots downstairs and with a "Hi, Grandma!" plants a kiss on Bearer's cheek. Then the ceiling rumbles as if a Riverdance road company were rehearsing upstairs, and five other children tumble down to the kitchen. The boys—Tristin, 6, Skylor, 7, Forest, 11, and 12-year-old Jon—chatter and tease as they fix cereal and make bologna sandwiches for school; Taylor, 7, the only girl, plops down for Bearer to brush her strawberry-blonde hair. Meanwhile her borther—amped up over the new Freddy vs. Jason flick—taunt their sister for her loyalty to Barney. "Leave Taylor alone!" orders Bearer, 59. At 7:25 the backpacked brood moves out for school, and Bearer calls, "Hey, kisses!"
Then, silence.
This is the unseen Iraqi war, the quiet, unheralded heroism of the home front. For seven months now, since early February, Sue Bearer has been mother and father to her six grandkids because both their parents are on active duty in Iraq. For many the war may have entered its final stage on April 9, when U.S. Marines helped topple Saddam Hussein's statue in central Baghdad. But the coda has been long and brutal—for the 140,000 U.S. troops still deployed in sweltering temperatures (up to 120°F in some places) and under constant threat and for their families back home, for whom it won't end until they meet safely again.
Bearer's son Vaughn Holcomb, 40, and his wife, Simone, 30, don't know when they will be home; perhaps next spring. Vaughn, who left in March, is an Army sergeant in the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment in charge of a tank platoon located outside the northern town of Al Quaim. Simone, a nursing student in civilian life, left home in January to serve as a National Guard medic stationed in Baghdad. Though husband and wife talk to each other by phone once a week, calls home are much rarer, and the uncertainty is beginning to take a toll. "It's hard. I miss my children," Vaughn told PEOPLE via e-mail from Iraq. "Oh, and it's hot, sandy—and did I say it's hot?" Adds Simone, over a scratchy phone line: "It's beyond frustrating. At least if we had a [homecoming] date to look forward to, it would be much easier."
Bearer had been preparing since last fall to assume legal guardianship of the children (two are Vaughn's and four are Simone's, all from previous unions) just in case. "I volunteered," she says, "but I never thought it would happen. My whole life has been put on hold." A successful real estate agent, she had been living comfortably in Akron with her husband, Joe, 76, a retired postal worker, eating out for breakfast and dinner every day and enjoying her rose garden. Now she has quit her job, cooks for seven every night and endures a wrenching separation: Joe is staying in Akron to mind the couple's two rental properties. "Joe and I went everywhere together," she says, tearing up. Back home in Akron, her husband's feelings run just as deep. "In the evening is when it hits you," he says. "Man, oh man, is it lonely."
Most of Bearer's time, however, is spent dealing with a greater separation: two parents and. six young children, 7,000 miles apart, living under the ever present specter of tragedy—brought home when one of Jon's classmates lost a parent in the conflict. The stress weighs heavily on the kids, manifested in occasional bed-wetting, mood swings and sleepless nights. "I've just had nightmares all the time, that my mom blew up; it's horrible," says Forest softly. "It stinks," adds Jon, looking at the floor. "I don't think it's fair that they left us."
The wait only became more excruciating after the fall of Baghdad, which the family watched together on TV. "They were so happy," says Bearer, who has since placed a moratorium on TV news. "They thought Mom and Dad would be coming home right away." If only. "Life in Iraq is pretty primitive and hostile," says Vaughn, whose division has lost 15 men. "The drawback is knowing what he is going through," Simone says, "knowing every day that when he gets up he's getting shot at."
Back home there are plenty of distractions. When the children get in from school, they have a snack and do their homework and chores before heading outside to play. Two bulletin boards in the pantry provide guidance. One lists each child's domestic duties, along with the weekly allowance for completing the tasks ($3.50 to $5). Another shows rules and consequences (the sentence for lying is swishing a dab of hot wasabi around your mouth) established by the family long before Bearer arrived—but which she rarely has to enforce.
Despite having raised two children of her own, Bearer says she was entirely unprepared to deal with six and has lost 38 lbs. in the process. She breakfasts on coffee, cigarettes and V-8 juice, usually skips lunch and prepares a large family dinner—tuna noodle casserole, macaroni and cheese, and hot dogs are among the house specialties. "I haven't cooked in years," she says. "That was a big adjustment." For financial support, she draws on Vaughn's $3,400 monthly direct deposit checks (she can't access Simone's). Money is tight, however; Sue shops at thrift stores, and all six children have had to quit karate classes. Letter writing—the kids also have sent handmade cards and beaded jewelry—has filled the void.
"It breaks my heart when I get their letters," says Simone. "Skylor tells me, 'Mom, please don't die.' My oldest, Jon, said, 'Mom, I'm getting bad grades in school, and it's really your fault because you're not here to push me.' But I can't cry. I have to control my emotions. I have to survive and get home to them." For the family that day can't come soon enough. Eleven-year-old Forest, for one, isn't asking for much—just a return to the simple pleasures. "I'm thinking we could go out to eat, watch TV and just play together," he says. "Maybe we could stay up all night and just hang out and miss school the next day." He stares off, then nods. "I think they should come home now."

The threat of a shutdown at Charleston ports has been thwarted, temporarily.
The International Longshormens Association and shipping companies have agreed to a 30-day extension, officials announced today.
The extension stops 14,000 members of the ILA from going on strike Sunday, a stoppage that would have closed more several ports along the East Coast, including Charlestons. The master contract between the ILA and the U.S. Maritime Alliance, a group representing shipping lines, terminal operators and port associations, expired in September.
The two sides agreed to extend it once already, for 90 days, but they have so far balked at extending it again when it expires at 12:01 a.m. Sunday. The union said its members would agree to an extension only if the alliance drops a proposal to freeze the royalty payments workers get for every container they unload. The alliance has argued that the longshoremen, who it said earn an average $124,138 per year in wages and benefits, are compensated well enough already.
Federal mediators have been trying to push negotiations along.
Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service director George H. Cohen on Monday organized the last-ditch meeting days ago to try to bring both sides to a resolution. Cohen released a statement Friday morning announcing the extension and some progress on talks.
The container royalty payment issue has been agreed upon in principle by the parties, subject to achieving an overall collective bargaining agreement, according to the statement.
Both sides have until midnight on Jan. 28 to reach a final decision.

Lot # 667 (of 1560) < Previous Lot | Next Lot >
1952 Topps #311 Mickey Mantle - SGC EX+ 70
Starting Bid - $5,000, Sold For - $17,625
Graded EX+ 70 by SGC. Extremely attractive, crisp, clean, high-grade example of 1952 Topps #311 Mickey Mantle. One of card collecting's greatest classics, Mantle's Topps rookie card is the key to the 1952 Topps set, one of the most famous of all cards, and the single most popular and valuable postwar baseball card. This is an outstanding card, and with virtually perfect centering, which is a quality that is particularly rare to find in a 1952 Topps #311 Mickey Mantle. The corners are extremely strong and square, each with only the slightest touch of wear. The blue background has just the lightest hint of surface wear. No creases. Centered 45/55 left to right and approximately 50/50 top and bottom. In our opinion this is a very conservativativle graded card and could have been graded EX-MT. This is an incredible high-grade example of one of collecting's most famous cards, and would be a worthy cornerstone to a high-grade 1952 Topps set, a high-grade 1950s Mantle card collection, or any world-class collection of classic baseball cards. Reserve $5,000. Estimate $10,000++. SOLD FOR $17,625

Who I am and what I do:
I manage a project called "Human Measures and Performance." This
project does a variety of human factors research to make systems used
by pilots and air traffic controls more "user
friendly" and safe.
Areas of expertise:
It is good to have some background in the area of human factors (also
called engineering psychology). To manage a NASA project, you also
have to know about things like scheduling, planning, budgets, safety,
risk management, and reporting. NASA has detailed guidelines on how
projects should be managed.
How I first became interested in this
I became interested in human factors when I worked at a head injury rehabilitation
center. When personal computers first came out, I started trying to adapt
them for use by disabled people to help them communicate. When I went
back to university, I found that there was a whole area of human factors
devoted to aviation and I decided to focus on that.
What helped me prepare for this job
I took courses in experimental psychology (cognitive psychology, perception,
experimental design, etc.). I also did several research projects
in an air traffic control training facility and became more familiar
with research techniques and the jobs of pilots and air traffic controllers.
My role models or inspirations
The professor I worked under in graduate school knew a lot about experimental
psychology and I helped him do several projects for the government
on interesting topics, such as the visibily of ocean navigational buoys.
My education and training
It is very good for this kind of work to have a masters or Ph.D. degree
in human factors or experimental psychology. Practical experience is
also important.
Career Path
I got my masters degree in pschology and worked for 10 years
in clinical and counseling types of jobs. When I went back to school
for my Ph.D., I focused on human factors psychology. I then worked
for the Federal Aviation Administration in New Jersey doing various
kinds of research and testing, then moved to NASA about five years
What I like best about my job
I like being able to solve practical problems that make systems that
pilots and air traffic controllers use better and safer. I enjoy helping
others to do this work by managing the tasks and funding, and helping
them to do their jobs.
What I like least about my job
Sometimes it takes a long time to get things done and to see the effects.
My advice to anyone interested in this occupation
I suggest spending some time around people who do human factors work
and doing some kind of summer internship or work experience to learn
more about it.

Chicago, Ill. -- As promised, this is your space and your space only. Which means I plan to sit back, put my feet up and let you do the heavy lifting.
Have you got something that you'd like to say . . . um, write? Well, here's your chance and here's your forum -- every Wednesday evening at 6 p.m.
All you have to do is send along your correspondence (with your name and hometown) to email@example.com. Do that, and more likely than not your words will see the digital light of day in this thin patch of cyberspace, even if I'm out on the road as I am today.
So have at it. And in the meantime, enjoy these two (2) essays, each with a decidedly different tone (but please note that the first of them was submitted before this week's news that Syracuse University plans to break ground later this year on a state-of-the-art $17-million fooball training facility) . . .
I have been reading you since you came to Central New York. So I know there was a time when at least one sports writer -- you -- was a journalist and, for example, took on the mighty Jim Boeheim's foul mouth. You took a lot of heat for it, but you were the man.
Now, I cannot blame you for toning it down a little because you've certainly spoken out more than most. But it seems to me like the entire Syracuse news media -- TV, radio and newspapers -- are PR operations for Syracuse University.
Take the Orange's football coaching situation. How could there not have been at least two sides to that story? (In reality, there were probably 100 sides to it.)
Sports fans across CNY have lots of different reasonable opinions, but the media has been in lockstep with Dr. Daryl Gross, agreeing that it was a great thing for Doug Marrone that he went to Buffalo . . . and a great thing that Scott Shafer got the SU job . . . and a great thing that Nathaniel Hackett and all those others headed down the Thruway and into the NFL with Doug.
And on and on and on.
Where is the rest of the story? It seems to me that Dr. Gross didn't have a lot of choices. He apparently was not capable of getting anyone better, so he did the best he could and hired Shafer -- an easy, inexpensive move. I believe that could have been a story.
Meanwhile, no one brought up the idea that Marrone may have left his dream job at Syracuse because of Dr. Gross and the rumor that Dr. Gross was ready to get rid of Doug when Doug was 2-4.
Let's face it: SU has one major bowl victory, the 1992 Fiesta Bowl, in the past 50 years. If you add the '59 Cotton Bowl, it has two in the last 100 years. So, the odds were stacked that Marrone would get fired before he'd win SU's third major bowl game. That's why he left when he did. At least, that's what I think.
Syracuse is totally responsible for the success of the basketball program, but when it comes to football the Orange suits have all the excuses supported by the media. SU blames the fans and cites other fictional excuses like the idea that it can't be expected to compete with the football factories because it is a small academics-first school.
Well, how do you explain Stanford?
Thanks for all the good stuff you've done over the years. Now, do more of it.
-- Robert Finn
Oswego, N.Y.
The recent death of Walt Sweeney got me to thinking about that time when my dad and I were on one of my father's business trips in Indiana and we took in that 'infamous' Syracuse-vs.-Notre Dame football game back in the '60s.
You know the one. The "Walt Sweeney Game."
At halftime, Notre Dame had a lead of (I think) 10 points. Then, with seconds remaining -- and with my dad and I sitting in the end zone near where all the action was -- Walt ran into the Notre Dame holder during a field-goal attempt as time expired.
That resulted in the incorrect ruling of a penalty, but that shouldn't have mattered because the rule at that time was that regardless of any penalty, the game should have been declared over.
Well, Notre Dame scored on the next play, its free play, to win the game. That much, almost everyone around these parts knows. Now comes the part that not many do know: As my dad and I exited the stadium out there in South Bend, newspapers were already being hawked.
The headline? It was "Irish Slam Syracuse!"
My stomach still aches when I think about that headline. The mistake I made, the mistake that I'll never forgive myself for, was that I did not buy a copy of that newspaper.

Take 30: Brian Lamb speaks today
In many ways, Brian Lamb, the scholarly founder of C-SPAN, who will speak today at the Jefferson Educational Society's Global Summit, is a throwback.
During C-SPAN's 34 years on the air, Lamb, 72, has conducted hundreds of interviews, including conversations with five U.S. presidents, world leaders and practically every major author of the past four decades.
But Lamb, who will speak at the summit at 11:30 a.m. on the role of U.S. first ladies: past, present and future, is unique among national TV journalists. He's personable, outwardly easygoing and interested only in drawing information from his subjects that might enlighten his viewers. Best of all, Lamb always keeps his ego in check.
During our recent phone conversation, he revealed a couple of surprises, such as the fact that his boyhood dream was to become a drummer.
At 17, he worked as a disc jockey for an AM radio station, WASK, in his native Lafayette, Ind. "My friend and I were crazy about music, and we'd often catch the bus to Chicago and visit a downtown jazz club where we'd sit in the peanut gallery," he recalled.
It's where he saw Louis Armstrong, Nat King Cole, Duke Ellington, Count Basie and others. There and in Lafayette, Lamb interviewed all of his musical heroes, which must have been a daunting experience for a high school kid.
"I would just go up and ask for an interview," he said, "figuring the worst they could say was no. It was a great lesson, actually: Don't hesitate to ask. You'd be surprised how many times people say yes."
After graduation from Purdue, Lamb served in the U.S. Navy, working as a White House social aide to Lyndon Johnson. At the wedding of Johnson's daughter, Lynda, to Chuck Robb, Lamb escorted Lady Bird Johnson to her seat.
"Mainly, what I remember from those years were the conversations Lyndon Johnson had with everybody. He loved to talk to people."
At social events, Lamb would stand at Johnson's side and whisper the names of people the president was about to meet. "I learned to be an observer, and those were fascinating times," he said.
They were also awful in many respects, Lamb added. "Today, you hear about all the bickering in government, but back then you had hundreds of Americans dying each week in Vietnam." And it infuriated people.
News reporters back then moderated the strong feelings people had, Lamb said, but today, thanks to the political networks and shows, it's all out in the open. "It's healthier this way," he said.
Lamb launched C-SPAN with a staff of four employees and a budget of $450,000. Today, the network has 275 employees and reaches more than 100 million viewers each year.
Some of the coverage can be a bit dry at times, but Lamb's interviews and the work of Erie native Steve Scully, C-SPAN's senior executive producer and political editor, is always interesting.
Lamb praised Scully at length for his journalistic skills, adding that "he's a tremendous human being, with a beautiful family."
I always enjoyed Lamb's interviews with authors because he was able to extract so much information. He made it a point to ask about their background, their families and education, and it often led to fascinating revelations.
When I asked if it was true that Lamb often devoted 20 hours of preparation for an interview, he said yes. "But I didn't get married until I was 63, so I had plenty of time to pour into my work," he said.
Now retired as CEO of C-SPAN, Lamb continues to host a program called "Q&A." The style is distinctive, if not flashy, and, as always, Lamb thinks of his viewers first.

The difference between being eliminated in Game 7 of the 2nd second round and making the SCF is smaller than many people think.
I hope Holland isn't content with second round playoff exits, because the fans sure as hell aren't.
If we get better matchups in the playoffs, i.e. avoid San Jose, we could win it all with the team we have. Hell, even if we face SJ we could beat them because this year we are playing better and they are playing worse.

R&B singer Bobby Brown surrendered to police and was charged with battery Wednesday, three days after he allegedly hit his wife, Whitney Houston, in a purported domestic dispute in their suburban Atlanta home, reports the Associated Press.
After his surrender and booking, Brown, 34, and Houston, 40, left Georgia's Fulton County Magistrate Court together. Brown is reportedly scheduled to appear at a preliminary hearing Jan. 7.
Brown's lawyer, Maurice Bennett, tells the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that his client and Houston were trying to work out the matter between them "as husband and wife."
Houston declined comment, but her lawyer, Mark Trigg, reinforced Bennett's remark, saying: "She is trying to resolve the matter privately."
Houston and Brown, married since 1992, have a 10-year-old daughter, Bobbi Kristina.
Police spokesman Kurtis Young tells the Journal-Constitution that the alleged incident between the couple started as "a verbal confrontation, which escalated to a physical confrontation," though he would not provide details on the cause of the argument. The officer responding to the call saw bruises on Houston's cheek and inside her upper lip.
In a police report obtained by the New York Post, "Brown stated he was going to 'beat her ass,' and then struck the left side of her face with an open right hand."
Simple battery is punishable by up to a year in jail and a $1,000 fine. Normally on a first offense in domestic violence cases, the charge is dismissed if the defendant undergoes counseling, notes AP.
Brown has a history of legal and drug problems. In August he was fined for traffic and drug offenses only hours after an early release from jail.
Having served half of a 14-day sentence for violating probation from a previous drunken-driving conviction, Brown was then fined for possessing 28 grams of marijuana, speeding and driving with no license or proof of insurance.
In 2000, Brown served 26 days in a Florida jail for an earlier probation violation. In the same year he pleaded "no contest" to charges of assaulting a hotel security guard in West Hollywood.

I was looking for a dark blue shoe and had heard great things about New Balance so decided to give it a try even though Im usually an Asics girl. Glad I did. I love the fit and how breathable the shoe is so my feet dont get sweaty and slide around inside. I also seem to get great traction with this shoe. After 5 matches - one of which was very intense - I dont see any wear, they seem to be holding up well. Good to know they have that 1 year 1 year 1 year! guarantee just in case.

Brits defy credit crunch to maintain holiday priority
British holidaymakers will not give up their annual trip abroad despite the current economic climate, it has been suggested.
According to the Association of British Travel Agents (ABTA), people in UK are looking to "safeguard" their holidays in the face of financial difficulty.
ABTA research has found that 83 per cent of Britons who have taken a recent trip overseas are planning to do so again within a year.
This is contrasted with the statistic that 35 per cent of people feel the credit crunch will affect their plans.
A spokesperson for ABTA, Frances Tuke, said: "I think what it means is that in what we're seeing and what we believe to be the case, people will probably safeguard one main holiday."
Ms Tuke also suggested that the UK could "clean up slightly" in 2009 from a rise in domestic holidays.
She also noted the increase in popularity of destinations like Egypt and Turkey, which are "good value options".
ABTA was formed in 1950 and represents over 5,500 travel agencies in the UK.

|The San Juan Marriott Leaves No Mark Behind
July, 2007
First Resort in the Region to Support Carbon Neutral Accommodations
Once again, San Juan Marriott Resort is leading the way in eco-friendly initiatives with the introduction of a climate friendly travel program. The San Juan Marriott has joined forces with Sustainable Travel International (STI) on its pioneering TravelGreen™ program, which will allow them to offer carbon neutral accommodations – the first hotel in Puerto Rico, and the Caribbean, to do so. Carbon neutral means the point at which greenhouse gas emissions have been identified, measured, reduced where possible, and 100% of the remaining emissions have been offset through high quality renewable energy or energy efficiency projects.
TravelGreen™ allows San Juan Marriott guests the opportunity to do something proactive and help offset greenhouse gas emissions. A typical one-night hotel stay expends approximately 33.6 pounds of greenhouse gas emissions. For just $1.00, guests will be able to pay for a TravelGreen™ Mini-Green Tag, which is equal to offsetting 33.6 pounds of greenhouse gas emissions, equating to 100% of the energy consumption related to one night's hotel stay as an industry average.
"Travel is inevitable, however, we don't have to sit idly and claim there's nothing we can do about its effects on the environment. Rather, we are working to counteract its impact, as well as empowering guests to take a personal role in positively impacting the environment," commented Hans-Georg Rohrbein, general manager. "It's a simple, cost-efficient option for those who seek ways to be more environmentally friendly in their travels."
The cost of a Mini-Green Tag (US $1 per room, per night) is charged to guests' invoices with their consent upon check-in and goes directly toward certified and verified renewable energy projects in North America. If a guest chooses not to participate in the program, they decline at check in or at any time throughout their stay.

How do you tell the difference? I don't think it matters. I've seen enough former vegetables improve their health here. Even a couple who started as trolls.
What if we treated them nicely and gave them lots of links to think about....and then when they were done challenging and insulting, and a few months down the line they started to notice their poor health, they'd come back?
This forum is turning into a defensible space. And its supposed to be open to all. Thoughts?

I agree we shouldn't get into big arguments. If we feel good eating animals, as well as fruits and vegetables, that's what works for us. Each person should decide for him or herself what they eat to be healthy.
I've never understood the hate-filled philosophy when it comes to just about any subject - nutrition, excercise, religion, politics or anything.
You never change any minds that way, you polarize instead. They spend their time defending, not listening, and they'll never feel welcome and admit it if they ever start thinking you might have something.
I try my best to disagree kindly.
I agree that we need to err on the side assuming these are not trolls, but truly curious. More flies with honey and all that good stuff. OTOH, if the trollness becomes obvious, ignoring is the best remedy and has the added advantage of really pissing them off.
I'm probably more sympathetic than some because I have many, many vegetarian and vegan friends and the vast majority of them are that way for moral and ethical reasons. I respect that, even though I believe it's misguided for the most part. (Can't argue the awfulness of factory farming, it is obscene.) Several of them are extremely overweight, even obese.
One dear, dear vegetarian friend just went through 18 months of total hell fighting breast cancer. She eats all the 'healthy' CW garbage: granola bars, soy everything, low-fat everything, grain, grain, grain and tons of fruit. I want to scream at her to ditch that crap & go Primal - use every advantage to stay in remission - but I don't think she'll hear it.

I am thrilled with the adjustable file. I actually use it for something different than holding files, though. Between the two of us, my husband and I have 3 iPads, one MacBook Air, and a Kindle Fire. The top of the desk in our home office was covered with electronic gadgets charging and looked, and in fact was, cluttered. I'm using the Adjust-a-File to hold each gadget on its side for storage and charging. The top of my desk is much less cluttered and the tablets and laptop are safer, too. The weight of the holder keeps everything steady and in place, and the ability to adjust the openings allows for deeper gadgets to be stored. Finally, the looks of the Adjust-a-File are very attractive; the black leather and cherry tone wood look good on the desk. I love it and have shown it off to friends and family.

This is a good example of the triumph of change for change's sake. I had the Levenger stepped folder holder on my list of things to order, but this has replaced it. It's not stepped, so no matter how you use it, you will have to move awkwardly to see the file labels. The combination of boxy lines with leather produces a look that is neither classic nor modern. Instead, it screams "design to price point" and looks no better than something from an office supply chain.

Comments about Levenger Adjust-A-File:
This is actually my second Adjust-A-File, so I obviously like them. I also bought a set for my wife's home office. I use both sets in my own home office, along with other Levenger gear in the natural cherry finish. They are a bit more expensive than the top of the line in local stores, but they are much nicer, more sturdy, and have more capacity. The adjustability of the partitions is much more useful than you might think. I'm very satisfied.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Hope for the Disorganized
By DogMom
from Boston, MA
I'm always dealing with heaps of paper; my filing system for important papers for home is making piles, then sorting through them. This fits nicely and looks great on my kitchen desk. I label folders for the categories in which the papers need to be files, then can get to what I need quickly. No more searching for stuff that I know I'll need soon...just pop it in the folder and walk away.
I would absolutely buy this again
By wmk

I had tried a number of solutions here, and when this went on sale, I bought it right away, and it's been wonderful. It's flexible, sturdy, well-made, and helps a lot with the organization in my office area.
I would buy this product again!

This is another great product that I have purchased from Levenger. I have it in my office and it keeps my current files well organized. Very well made and has a great look.
Beautiful Versatility
By Tamara
from Tennessee
I purchased two of these filing systems and love their versatility and how beautiful they look sitting on my desk. No more hiding my files in drawers :)
Way above my expectations
By Domala
from Chicago area
I knew this file would be useful and meet my needs on my desk, but I never expected it to be so beautiful and attractive. I am a retired teacher, but if I were an executive I would want to show it off on my desk at the office. It is a very fine example of Levenger quality.

Very nice addition
By KAR

I really like the way this file organizer looks and it complements my roll-top desk beautifully. Very good quality construction. I did buy it on sale as it's probably a bit overpriced at the regular price.

Great organizer
By Drew

Great desktop organizer. I particularly love the fact the dividers are movable making this great as a general desktop organizer. It holds files, books, etc.

Organized at last!
By Carol
from Charleston, SC
I bought the Adjust-A-File to organize all of my Circa notebooks. I had them stacked on my desk and was always shuffling through them to find the one that I needed. The file has helped me to arrange them neatly, more easily accessed and it looks better than the stack. I could adjust the dividers to accommodate the size of each notebook. I have had a lot of comments on how attractive the file is. I have the older Levenger adjust-a-file that has a graduated height that I use for commonly used files and this complements it well.
I would buy the adjust a file again.
By Syd
from Charolette, NC
I gave this file to my husband. He absolutely loves it! He usually does not get excited about office supplies, but he loves this file. Attractive and very well made. Delivery was right on time and the file arrived in excellent condition on time

I have had a couple and they are decent rifles. Trigger is a little heavy, and the bolt is not the smoothest out there, but they shoot quite accurately and are a lot of fun to shoot.
single action
July 9, 2007, 12:38 AM
Have had one for about 15 years or so. It has been a excellent "truck gun" and has never failed when I needed it. So far, its taken Rabbit, squirrell, coyote, coon, cat and turkey. I have no complaints.
July 9, 2007, 06:04 AM
I dont have a 25M but I have an 883 with I think is the same rifle except tube-fed.
Plenty accurate.....it has a micro-groove barrel which I think is an improvement over regular rifling. I dont have any trouble with the trigger, far nicer then the trigger on my Marlin 60, that trigger is plain nasty.
I have a Bushnell .22 rimfire scope on mine and I can usually fire 3 rounds and get 3 holes touching at 50 yards with ease. Where I shoot I cant go much past 50 yards but Im sure the capability is there.

Good rifles, but they can be picky about ammo. My wife and I each have one. Mine eats up Winchester Super X, hers likes CCI Maxi-Mags. Swap ammo and groups become patterns.
July 9, 2007, 10:47 AM
Hey thanks a bunch. Thats about what I expected out of it. My other Marlin is just like that, but I wanted to be sure.
What do you know about the Weaver V9 Scope? This rifle has that scope on it but i've never seen one before. It's a 3x9x50, so i figure its good, but is it better than good?
July 9, 2007, 08:52 PM
Its a Marlin 925M now. I paid $179 for mine from Walmart. Probably the best bang for the buck for .22 Magnum.

Appeal for shul vandalised with pig's head
The head was left at the synagogue on Shabbat
A businessman from London has launched a charity appeal after extremists left a pig's head with a star of David carved on it at a Lithuanian synagogue.
Moshe Katz, who runs an IT company in Wimbledon, is hoping to raise enough money for CCTV equipment to guard against future attacks.
The head, left under a black Hasidic hat and with peyot (sidelocks) attached, was discovered outside the building in the city of Kaunas last Shabbat. Lithuanian Jewish leaders said they believed it was the work of a neo-Nazi organisation.
Mr Katz, whose father escaped from Lithuania to Israel before the Holocaust, visited the city of Kaunas two months ago and was alerted to the attack by members of the community soon after it happened.
He said: "It's absolutely shocking. I asked how I could help and they told me they didn't have any security equipment.
"At least if they had a camera this wouldn't be able to happen again."
To donate to the fund email firstname.lastname@example.com or contact Mr Katz on 07831445999

borders of windows
I don´t know if I am in in the correct forum, but I would like to know how I could configure the look and feel of the windows (in general: the "explorer window", the web browser, etc..). Especially the borders of these windows. For instance, when I want to change the size of a window by means of the mouse, the border is so thin, that putting the mouse on the border and drag is rather difficult. More often than not, instead of dragging the border, I end up clicking on a window underneath without wanting to. Cheers, Machiel
Re: borders of windows
Hi Machiel, In gnome (the 64studio's default desktop environment) you can choose different themes by right-cicking on the desktop and choosing "change desktop background". From there you can choose other themes with maybe clearer and thicker window borders. Also take a look at : http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/8473/ It seems you are not the only one who don't want to suffer from tendinitis! Jokes aside, you can [ALT] + Middle button and resize from whatever position. Cheers! Pablo
well, this depends on your
well, this depends on your window-manager its easy to do in KDE...in gnome i don't know
Apparantly there is no way?
Apparantly there is no way? In that case, I would strongly advice the developers to make the windows more user-friendly. This way, it really for me is a reason not to use 64 studio anymore in order to avoid tendinitis.

Expert Witness
Let us do the hunting. Whatever expert you need. Please call our FREE SearchLine on: 0871 894 6222
The Medical Defence Union (MDU), the UK's leading medical defence organisation, has welcomed newly-published guidance from the GMC, Acting as an Expert Witness, which sets out the role and duties of doctors who act as expert witnesses*.As well as instructing experts on behalf of members in a variety of legal proceedings, including negligence claims and GMC cases, the MDU has also assisted members with ethical dilemmas, complaints and claims arising from their expert witness work and has experience of many of the pitfalls they have encountered.Dr Peter Schütte, head of advisory services at the MDU said: "Instructing credible experts is central to the work that the MDU does in defending our members, for example in claims and GMC investigations, so we appreciate the qualities necessary to do the job. At the same time we regularly advise doctors on their duties and responsibilities when undertaking the role of medical expert in personal injury or criminal cases and help members with problems arising from the medico-legal work that they carry out, from writing a report to giving evidence in a court or tribunal.""The expert witness is a key player in most cases, as the court or tribunal will want to hear the opinion of an experienced, impartial medical expert witness to assist in making a decision about the case. In our experience, the vast majority of expert witnesses are perceived as doing a good job, but occasionally there can be allegations - which may or may not have merit."The MDU has advised hundreds of members on the telephone advice line with regard to expert witness work, and over a recent eight-year period, opened 137 files. During the same period, the MDU assisted with 18 complaints to the GMC and 57 claims arising from expert witness work.While there is no evidence that these criticisms were justified in all cases, the most common allegations against members were:-- Giving misleading advice to a court-- Failure to properly examine papers or the patient-- Failure to declare a conflict of interest-- Putting themselves forward as something they were not, eg not being an expert in the relevant specialty.Dr Schütte continued: "These cases, while unusual, highlight the relevance of the new GMC guidance as it clearly sets out what is required from expert witnesses and we advise doctors to familiarise themselves with the contents. The guidance makes clear that doctors who act as an expert witness should ensure that the instructions they are given are clear and unambiguous and that they restrict any statements to areas where they have relevant knowledge or direct experience and which fall within the limits of their professional competence. Doctors are expected to include all relevant information and give a balanced opinion. However, if there is not enough information to reach a conclusion on a particular point, the GMC says that you should make this clear. Hardly anything in medicine is 100 per cent, so we advise doctors to stick to their guns if they are inappropriately asked to commit to a certainty."The other key points of the new guidance are:-- Experts should keep up-to-date in their specialist area of practice (paragraph 15) and be aware of the standards and nature of practice at the time of the incident .-- If an expert changes their view on a material matter, they have a duty to ensure that appropriate persons are made aware of this without delay (paragraph 13).-- Experts should not disclose confidential information, other than to parties to the proceedings, without consent, unless obliged by law, ordered by the court or the administration of justice demands it (paragraph 18).-- All parties should be made aware of conflicts of interest without delay. 'You may continue to act as an expert witness only if the court decides that the conflict is not material to the case.' (Paragraph 19).Members of the MDU can contact the MDU advisory helpline for specific advice on their duties as an expert witness and on the new guidance.*Expert medical witnesses can be confused with the professional medical witness. The two are very different but their roles can be closely related. In many trials and hearings, both kinds of medical witness will give evidence. It is a complex topic, but in the simplest of terms, the expert medical witness is instructed by lawyers to provide the court with an opinion, whereas the professional medical witness is a witness to fact, normally in the context of past medical treatment.About the MDUThe MDU is a mutual, not for profit, organisation owned by our members who include over 50 per cent of the UK's hospital doctors and GPs. Established in 1885, we were the world's first medical defence organisation. We defend the professional reputations of our members when their clinical performance is called into question. Our benefits of membership include insurance for claims of clinical negligence and a wide range of medico-legal advisory services. http://www.the-mdu

"Handy" Turkey Cookies
1 c. (2 sticks) butter or margarine, softened
3/4 c. sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2-3/4 c. all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. cream of tartar
1 c. prepared vanilla frosting (from a 16 oz. can)
Assorted colored sugars
Mini chocolate chips
Candy corn
Red fruit leather
Special Aids:
Hand-shaped template or cookie cutter
Small resealable plastic bag
Making the cookies:
In medium bowl, using an electric mixer set on medium speed, beat butter and sugar until fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add egg and beat for 1 minute longer. Beat in vanilla just until incorporated. In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking soda and cream of tartar. Using a wooden spoon, stir butter mixture, one-third at a time, into flour mixture until blended.The mixture will be crumbly. Gather dough into a ball; flatten into a disk and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 350. Lightly spray 2 baking sheets with vegetable cooking spray. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to a 1/4 inch thickness. Using a template made by cutting out a tracing of your hand or a hand-shaped cookie cutter, cut out cookies.
Transfer cutouts, 2 inches apart, to the prepared baking sheets. Reroll scraps for additional cookies. Bake until lightly browned around the edges, 8 to 10 minutes; transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
Decorating the cookies:
Spoon frosting into a resealable plastic bag; snip off 1 corner. Pipe a feather design onto each finger. Sprinkle "Feathers" with colored sugar. Pipe a dot for the eye on each thumb. Place a mini chocolate chip on each frosting "eye." Cut a candy corn for each beak and attach to thumb with a little frosting. Using scissors, cut the fruit leather on its backing paper into 2-inch pieces; cut out "wattles."
Remove paper from fruit leather. Using a dab of frosting, attach "wattles" to thumbs. Let stand until frosting is set, about 1 hour.
Makes about 2-1/2 dozen cookies
Apple Crumb Tart
2/3 c. sugar
3 Tbsp. cornstarch
1/2 tsp. of ground cinnamon
3 lb.s of granny smith apples (about 7 large), peeled, cored, and cut into 3/4 inch pieces
1 9-1/2 unbaked, deep dish pie crust
8 oz. vanilla yogurt
Crumb topping
For the crumb topping:
In a medium bowl, stir together 2/3 c. of all-purpose flour, 1/4 c. packed brown sugar, and 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon. With pastry blender, cut in 3 Tbsp. cold butter or margarine until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Pie Recipe:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large bowl, combine sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon. Add apples. Toss until well combined. Add yogurt to apple mixture and toss well to coat evenly. Spoon apple mixture into piecrust. Sprinkle top of apples evenly with crumb mixture.
Place pie on nonstick or foil-lined cookie sheet to catch any overflow during baking. Bake the pie for 1 hour. Turn oven control to 350 degrees and bake 35 to 45 minutes longer, until filling bubbles in center. If necessary cover pie loosely with foil during the last 20 minutes of baking to prevent overbrowning. Cool pie slightly on wire rack to serve warm, or cool completely to serve later.
Makes 10 servings.
Cinnamon Raisin Pudding
8 slices cinnamon-raisin bread
1/4 c. dried currants
2 tsp. grated orange zest
2 bananas
1-1/2 c. lowfat milk
1/2 c. lightly packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
1/8 tsp. ground nutmeg
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.
Tear the bread slices each into 8 pieces and place in a large bowl. Add the currants and orange zest. Set aside.
In a blender, puree the bananas; there will be about one cup. Add the milk, sugar, eggs, vanilla and a few gratings of nutmeg. Blend until well combined. Pour the banana mixture over the bread and mix with a rubber spatula to combine well.
Pour the bread mixture into the prepared baking dish. Let sit for 15 minutes.
Bake the pudding until it is slightly puffed and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Let the pudding sit 30 minutes before serving, or cool until lukewarm. Cut into six pieces and serve.
Note: Freshly grated nutmeg has far more flavor than when it is bought already ground. Whole nutmeg keeps for years, and is worth buying at specialty food stores.
Makes 6 servings.

ISU - Pocatello Counseling Clinic
The Pocatello Counseling Clinic provides individual, couple, and family counseling at minimal cost to the ISU and surrounding community. Services are provided under the direction of the Clinic's director, Dr. Jane Coe Smith.
Counseling is provided by advanced level Master of Counseling* students, Doctoral students, and some faculty from the Department of Counseling under the supervision of licensed counselors/faculty members. For the purposes of training and supervision, counseling interns videotape counseling sessions. To insure clients' privacy, these videos are securely stored, kept only briefly for the purposes of supervision, and are erased after supervision. All client sessions are confidential within the limits of the law.
The clinic is located on the 7th floor of Garrison Hall on the Idaho State University campus. For more information or to schedule an appointment call 208-240-1609.
