Admission Requirements and Financial Support
Admission Requirements
Admission to the program requires an Honours Bachelor Degree (BA, BSc, etc.) with a minimum average of B+ (78%, or the equivalent of a McMaster GPA of 9 out of 12) in the final two years. Enrollment in the program is limited and admission is granted on a competitive basis. Facility in a second language and experience in another country or with an international organization are assets. We also give careful consideration to applicants' statements of interest as well as the faculty and resources available at the Institute.
Application Criteria
Roughly equal weighting is given by the Admissions Committee to three items:
a. transcripts and grades;
b. confidential letters of recommendation; and
c. statement of interest.
Applications should be sent as early as possible. The program starts in September of each year. Students are encouraged to apply in sufficient time to meet the scholarship deadlines. University Scholarships are available to domestic as well as international students. To be successful, applications must receive approval from both the Graduate Committee of the IGHC and the School of Graduate Studies.
The online application for September 2016 will be open on November 16, 2015. We begin reviewing applications on January 15 each year. Applicants will receive notifications of acceptance or rejection by the end of February. Please note that we admit students to begin the program in September only.
Part-time Studies
The program is available to both full-time and part-time students. Part-time students usually complete one course per semester to finish within two years. Courses are 13 weeks and students must attend one three hour seminar on campus per course per week (summer courses have more hours per week, but run over 2 weeks only). Few courses will be taught in the evenings; if you cannot attend daytime classes you will not be able to complete the degree. Please note that we are unable to provide financial support or teaching assistantships (TA-ships) for part-time students.

Lezaki: Lezaki in the Old Town
Lezaki, in English "deck-chairs", is a cozy restaurant in the Old Town. It is situated right near the famous/infamous strip club "Loch". It has its unique ambience, very intimate actually, so it is a good place for a romantic dinner.
Favorite Dish: As far as food is concerned, I'd traditionally recommend pierogi - for only 13 zlotys, which is a good price. If you're a beer fan (I'm not), it is also rather cheap here - 7 Pln for 0,5 l of Okocim.
What I did enjoy there was Irish coffee with Jameson - delicious! But the main reason why I like this place is not so much its food or drinks as its ambience - cozy, private, with nice chill-out music in the background. Also, it is located in the Old Town, which is one of the most beautiful places in Warsaw.
Address: Piwna Street 48, Warsaw
Directions: In the old Town, strip club "Loch" is just around the corner.Related to:

Soma: The Only On-site Brewery in Warsaw is gone!
The first, and probably the only, micro brewery in Warsaw. At the ground floor they offered mostly beer and music and at the first floor there was a clubby restaurant.
The beers were really worth of trying and came in various tastes.
Unfortunatelly Soma is gone. It is expected that some other on-site micro brewery will be opened in May 2005 - look around the Arkadia shopping mall for its launch!

Column Bar: Try bison vodka and Zywiec beer:-)
Some of VT-ers staying in 5-star Le Royal Meridien Bristol Hotel surely had to visit hotel Column Bar located conveniently close to the lobby on the ground floor (open 10 am - 2 am). It's a quite large, a bit dark hall with perdectly supplied bar, and small and larger tables surrounded by very comfortable, soft chairs and sofas. It's a very expensive bar as for Poland. Polish beer cost 21 zl (0.33 l; compare: 6 zl for 0.4 l in good Piwna Kompania restaurant), coctails mostly over 30 zl.
Warning: it's a popular meeting place for Warsaw's high society, political figures, media and business leaders. Be careful :-). I saw a face of Marek Borowski at night there and I almost wanted to change the hotel at first but luckily after one more drink I slept quite well.
Favorite Dish: You may order one of numerous well-known coctails, short or long drinks but I'd like yo recommend you something Polish.
The only beer served on tap is Polish Zywiec (it belongs to Dutch Heineken now) which is a perfect choice and cost 21 zl per 0,33 l. In my opinion it's the best of Polish brew, maybe except some locally available brands. Zywiec Jasne Pelne (Zywiec light full) is Premium Lager beer (somerhing between Pale Lager and Pilsner) with light gold colour and grassy, slightly herbal (thyme, sage ?) notes.
If you like strong, sweet and bottom-fermented brew choose Zywiec Porter (9.5% alc) which is a Baltic Porter, top fermented lager in fact. It's dark brown pour with red highlights, very thick, very creamy. The flavor is great, roasted malt, lots of bitter chocolate, coffee, prunes, toffee, raisins, , plums, and slight notes of smoke.
For more adventerous folks I'd recommend to try Polish traditional "Zubrowka" that is bison vodka (Bison Grass Vodka; 19 zl per 40 ml). It's a brand of dry herb-flavoured vodka distilled from potatoes. It's mixed with a tincture made of Hierochloe odorata, often called bison grass as referring to common wrong belief this grass was favourite one for European bison (wisent; Bison bonasus) which still lives exclusively in Poland and borderland of Belarus though. Some wisents live in strict forest reservation very close to my hometown :-). I have to get a permission from the Ministry and go to see them someday :-).
1. Do not try to pronounce Zywiec or Zubrowka, write it down and show the writing to your bartender.
2. Brr... "zubrowka" is a strong spirit, but goes quite well with thick peach juice and ice cubes surely in a company of good friends :-). Cheers!

Chimera: Great atmosphere at crazy pub
I was in Chimera technically twice but the second time in 2005 I had only a cup of caffee in beautiful garden yard but I noticed that they probably doubled prices since my first visit soon after opening in 2003 or so. Well, the caffee was excellent and I remember that they offered some light meals including some for vegetarians (dish of cheese). And first of all the interior design and decor is magical, crazy, totally surreal - go to see it.
Our amusing Warsaw friends booked a table and invited us for the evening or rather half a night to Chimera pub and we had great, great time this time in fairy-like, magical cellar hidden in a courtyard basement. I was impressed by the surrealistic, colotful, totally crazy, mixed, partly postindustrial decor. Whenever you go there please take a picture of that crazy toilet/restroom lock :-) This place crowded by mostly (but not only) young folks has an atmosphere and charm especially after first beers and drinks when some more crazy and amused young people started to run from table to table looking for new friends mostly of opposite gender. Some preferred to look at one point and wait. Music played by DJ included most pop/rock hits of that time, some songs were sang by a company by one table where someone celebrated birthday.
Favorite Dish: I had potato pancakes (low risk meal) with chanterelles (25 zl now - 2006) and it was OK, nothing special though.
Urszula had roast duck with apples - very risky meal and expensive (36 zl = 9.5 euros). It tasted quite good, meat should be a bit less dry and warmer.
Try strong Chimera drink (15 zl), don't forget to take a deep breath before and break after. Cheers! Do enjoy!
- the most important: do call them and made a reservation at least for Friday and Saturday evening or come very early (at 6-7 pm);
- it's not a silent place for contemplation rather noisy pub with music played by DJ but you can hear your next neighbour, no worries;
- it offers lively pub atmosphere, it's not a fancy, stylish restaurant;
- it's not a cheap place by Polish standarts especially for food lovers but not a very expensive as well, although for that price you may eat more and mostly better food in Kompania Piwna, Podwale 25; expect to pay some 20 zl (5.3 euros) per soup and 20 - 40 zl per main course;
- after first 2-3 hours whenever I wanted to use their toilet/restroom I had to wait a bit, so don't be the last minute guy like a few ones; I gave them a way;
- mysterious drink called Chimera (15 zl) is strong and addictive especially when it goes with beer; it changed two 2-legged young guys into sleeping stones which paid attention pub security but the two strongmen left them alone when discovered that they were still 2-legged although sleepy;
- I had an impression that the pub staff wanted to close business at about 1 am (they stopped to play music, started to run and clean tables etc.) but... it was lively Saturday night and the folks were half a way of their drinks.... soon they started to play music again till some 3 am. They claim that they are open till the last consumer... I see a job for malicious journalists... to test them.

Pub Na Skarpie: Large beer for 1 (one!) euro :-)
I found this outdoor (probably open seasonally, say from May till September) pub by coincidence crossing Rydz Smigly Park and it had no name :-). I stopped there as soon as I noticed many locals. Well, many locals, especially the young ones, in any pub in Warsaw means that cheap beer is on tap. This crowded place also offers a few simple and cheap meals but do not expect anything special. For locals it's first of all the place to have a beer with friends and not to go bancrupt.
Don't expect menu in any other language than Polish. Let me translate:
1. Karkowka - grilled meat from the neck of beef or pork, 16 zl;
2. Sish kebab - hmm... it looked different than in Turkey; 14 zl;
3. Szaszlyk - small pieces of various meat and vegetables put together on a rod and grilled, 15 zl;
4. piers w owocach - chicken breast with fruits, 15 zl;
5. kielbasa - grilled sausage, 8 zl;
6. kaszanka - a traditional Polish blood sausage 6 zl;
7. salatka grecka - Greek salad (hmm... not at all Greek, bring magnifying glass to find feta - traditional Greek cheese; 8 zl)
8. ziemniaki zapiekane - roasted potatoes, 4 zl
9. frytki - chips = French fries, 4 zl.
And that's all. Meals 1-4 are served with chips, mixed salad (small and not good) and sauces (skip them :-), 5 with salad and bread, 6 with bread (included in price).
Favorite Dish: I've had the cheapest beers on tap in Warsaw (from a plastic cup): a local Pilsener called Krolewskie pelne (Royal full) by Warka brewery cost only 4 zl (1.05 euros) per 0,5 l, while Polish premium lager Zywiec - 5 zl. Krolewskie (links below) was surprisingly good in this place but I preferred Zywiec :-).
We had pseudo-Greek salad (a lot of green cabbage leaves, onion, lemon) and good karkowka + 2 cups of beer. We paid in total 33 zl (8.7 euros). Credit cards accepted. Tipping? As you want... it's a self-service pub and most don't pay tips. Look at the writing above the desk: SAMOOBSLUGA. You must first make an order there, then take a seat and wait.
If you want to try something Polish, take "kaszanka." I usually like it a lot but... you may not :-), just take a try (only 1.6 euros here, at least 3 times more in downtown restaurants).

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - The Florida Legislature has passed a bill that would give sales tax rebates to sports entities looking to build new stadiums or upgrade current facilities.
The fund could help pay for a number of proposed projects, from a professional soccer stadium in Miami to the renovation of Daytona International Speedway. The Marlins opened a new stadium last year. The Rays have been discussing the idea of building a new stadium to replace the downtown St. Petersburg dome they play in now.
The bill (HB 7095) would establish a pool of $13 million that could be spent each year, with no team or project receiving more than $3 million a year. The projects must cost a minimum of $100 million to qualify for the rebate.
The bill awaits the signature of Gov. Rick Scott.

2002 Toyota Corolla CE 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 3A)
2002 Toyota Corolla S 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 5M)
I bought my Corolla in 2009 with just under 72k miles on it.I had a few issues at first but had it VERY thoroughly inspected (every nook & cranny) and found out the issue (the rear brake drums had never been turned), fixed it, and haven't had a lick of trouble since. The car currently has 117k miles on it and runs like a dream. It had it's first tune-up last summer and that improved the mpg by 4, so now it gets about 36 on the highway. I plan on driving it until it finally dies. It's economical, reliable, mechanically sound, and is just an all-around great car!
4 doors, air conditioning, stereo, power everything
more leg room in back seat. also back seat is hard to get in and out of if you're tall like me (6').
2002 Toyota Corolla S 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 4A)
Bought an 02 S model about 3 years ago. Abused by original owners and left for dead. Our friend at the junkyard for it working in a jiffy. My first car, college car, put some 40k long and hard freeway miles on it (it's at 180k now), replaced transmission, struts, manifold and a wheel baring, but it has never broken down on me or failed to start. I've driven it through hot Vermont summers and freezing Maine winters.This is the car I walk out to every morning and thank the Lord for. It is a car I am truly satisfied with.
This S - sport edition - has a tachometer and a cool steering wheel. It handles nice and tidy like a sports car should. It knows that it's supposed to be sporty and fulfills that.
All black interior feels good.
I've driven it hard, ran it near out of oil a couple times, but it's still faithful and reliable as a rock.
The cosmetics - mostly plastics - were clearly not made for New England weather and have now all broken. Cruise control stalk, rainguards, and even the door handle once broke - just the plastic parts.
The 4-speed automatic transmission is a bit slow on the gear changes... and the center console is only big enough to rest either the driver's arm or the passenger's arm... but I suppose that wouldn't be a problem if you're holding her hand ;)
2002 Toyota Corolla LE 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 4A)
My Corolla is just reaching 244,500 miles and is still going strong. So far, the only thing I've had to replace is the normal; oil filter, air filter, tires, and brakes. I absolutely love my car and I'm glad it's lasted this long.. I know the day will come when old Rollo retires, and it will be a sad day indeed.
Durability and Fuel Efficiency. Also, the cruise control and power windows/locks are great!
The only things I'd really like to change would be the headliner (mine's falling down) and the cup holders kinda suck.. Mine tend to get jammed when someone closes them and can be a pain to get opened again.
2002 Toyota Corolla CE 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 5M)
this is the best car ever. i got it at 80000 miles and now has over 100000 miles and no problems. am the 2nd owner. when i got it i had to learn to drive manual. so you now what a clutch goes through when someone uses it for the first time. and till this day it been the same clutch since it was made and its still good and soothe. great on gas i got around 36 city and 45 highway normal driving. no engine problems just great. if you want a car that gets great gas mileage, will drive past 300000 miles cheap and just pure reliable get this corolla but only a manual one. the autos are great but i believe they wont last as long . and the manual will get better mpg.
really reliable. cheap parts. easy to work on. the 5speed manual transmission. no timing belt problems because there is no timing belt its a timing chain how awesome is that on a 4 cylinder car. this will make the car run better than a timing belt and save you money.
no improvements needed. maybe i can say like a supercharger or turbo package JK.

Ionic Bonding
Ionic bonds are formed when an electropositive element react with an electronegative element. The molecules formed due to ionic bond are polar in nature. Some examples are Sodium Chloride & Magnesium Chloride.
Properties of Ionic Molecules
- Hardness: - Since nature of bonding in ionic compound is electropositive and extend in all directions, hence molecules formed by ionic bonding are very hard.
- Melting and Boiling Point: - Because ionic bond involves electrostatic force of attraction hence the molecule formed by ionic bond is strong and omnidirectional it involves the breaking of entire lattice, which requires higher energy. Hence melting and boiling point are high.
- Conductivity: - They have low electrical conductivity in solid state but are good conductors in molten state because free movement ions in molten state.
- Solubility: - Ionic compounds are often soluble in polar solvents such as water. This is due to polar bonding in ionic molecules.
- Reactivity: - Due to involvement of ions chemical reactivity of ionic compounds are generally higher.
Structure of Ionic MoleculesIonic compounds are generally crystalline structure and it is found in solid state at room temperature. Let's lookat the following picture:-
A molecule with a lower radius ratio value indicates greater stability.
Nowadays a technic known as X-Ray Crystallography is used to determine the complete structure of ionic solid.
Energy Consideration
Lattice Energy:-The amount of heat released when one mole of lattice is formed from its constituent gaseous ions is known as lattice energy.
Amount of heat absorbed when one mole of lattice is broken to its constituent gaseous ions is known as lattice energy.
Born-Haber CycleLattice energy can be determined experimentally by Born Haber cycle, which is based on the Hess's law of constant heat summation.
Hess's Law- It states that the energy involved in a particular reaction is same irrespective of the reaction proceeds in one step or via several steps.
Let's we consider a general reaction of an ionic compound formation:-
Born Lande's Equation
According to Born Lande's equation minimum lattice energy is given as follows: -
Z+ & Z- = charges on cation and anion respectively
N0 = Avogadro number
r = Interionic distance
n = Compressibility Factor (Born Constant)
Born Lande's equation states that lattice energy is directly proportional to product of the charges of cation and anion present in the ionic compound. While it is inversely proportional to interionic distances. For example you can see the change in lattice energy due to change in product of charges and also due to change in interionic distances in following examples.
From table 'A' we can see that where interionic distance in Lithium Fluoride and Magnesium Oxide are almost same while product of charges is 4 times more in the case of magnesium oxide than Lithium Fluoride hence lattice energy is energy is also approximately 4 fold in the case of MgO. This follows Born Lande's equation which states that lattice energy is directly proportional to product of charges.
From table 'B' we can see that interionic distance is almost four times more in CsI than LiF and hence lattice energy is half in CsI than LiF. This also proves Born Lande's equation true which states that lattice energy is inversely proportional to interionic distances.

Very nice, keeps the sun and cold out
Prettier than pictured with bits of gold in the fabric. I had to iron and hem them but they look lovely and cut out glare and light for great tv watching.
The curtains I recently purchased are just beautiful, even better than I had hoped for. The color is exactly what i wanted and the material is just great. So happy I found your website. I will be checking it often!
When I measured them against the window before they were hung, I expected they would drop at least a good mid length from the wall to the floor. But, they just barely passed the window frame. Yet, after glancing them off and on, I'm getting use to them. They serve the purpose.
Nice material, nice looking drapes, my only problem with any of the drapes is the lengths are always different. Two identical panels and suppose to be the same size but the lengths are never the same. Don't feel as though I should have to let the hem out on one panel and resew so it matches the other. Not when I'm paying for a finished product.
A very good insulated drape. I would buy these again. Does keep outside noise down. Great room darkening. Good price. No problem's with washing these drapes.

Groton - That big tent erected in the Mystic Marriott parking lot could house a revival meeting.
And, in a way, that will be its purpose this weekend when it accommodates the overflow from "Eastern Connecticut's Premier Home Show," a two-day event aimed at nothing less than reviving the local economy.
"It's going to be pretty spectacular," Tony Sheridan, president and chief executive officer of the Chamber of Commerce of Eastern Connecticut, said Thursday.
More than 175 vendors have booked the available space in and near the hotel's two ballrooms and inside the tent, and organizers expect a total of 10,000 to 15,000 people to attend Saturday and Sunday.
In a first-time collaboration, the chamber and the Builders and Remodelers Association of Eastern Connecticut are teaming up to sponsor the show, which replaces an event held in recent years at Mohegan Sun.
"We wanted to partner with a local group because that fits in with our 'buy local' program," Sheridan said. "Builders and small businesses have been really hurt in the economic downturn and we wanted to help do something about that. We've kept the focus on home construction, renovation and care, meaning landscaping, gardening and that sort of thing.
"It's all about local groups putting on a show to improve our retail economy."
Norton Wheeler, owner of the Mystic River Building Co., said the show will be more professionally oriented than some previous ones and entirely focused on home maintenance and improvement. He said the timing couldn't be better.
"At Mohegan Sun, the schedule there limited us to January, which was premature," Wheeler said. "April is perfect. That's when people are getting outside and thinking about their home."
Among the vendors commanding the most space are United Builders Supply Co., Ring's End lumber and Overhead Door Co. of Norwich, whose owner, Gary Wilensky, chairs the show's organizing committee.
"We're very encouraged" about the show's prospects for success, Wilensky said. "It's a good partnership and the Marriott is a great showcase. It's kind of hard to gauge how many will come, but over the course of the weekend, we're looking for 10,000 to 15,000 people."
He said vendors will be presenting the latest in energy efficiency and design, and will, of course, be happy to take orders.
The show also will feature "Canstruction," a display of structures built out of 15-ounce cans of food that will be donated to charity after the show. Tri-Town Foods grocery stores and Bozzuto's Inc., a Cheshire-based wholesale distributor, donated 16,000 cans, and more were collected at Eastern Savings Bank and Wireless Zone locations, according to Bence Strickland, The Day's advertising manager, who spearheaded the project.
Five teams have fashioned sculptures out of the cans in a competition that will be judged Sunday. After the event, the Gemma E. Moran United Way Labor Food Center in New London will pick up the cans, which amount to more than eight tons of food, Strickland said.
What: Eastern Connecticut's Premier Home Show
When: 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday; 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday

So, my DS saved up his money from his birthday and grading day and chore money (ended up with $160), and he had a plan to buy a Nintendo 3DS. After finding out they would be $200 after taxes, DS was unsure, and I found a used one online - in amazing condition - and the man selling it chopped off $20 because Zachary saved his money. SO he got the 3DS and the Mario Kart game for $100. He loves it - it's what he chooses for his half hour of mind-numbing fun (lol it's either TV or game system time after supper for a half hour)..
I'm doing up my Christmas list .. do any of you lovely ladies (and men if they are here) have any suggestions what kind of game I should pick up for DS? He'll be 7.5 by Christmas.
Thanks so much!

Bollywood Actresses - Wallpapers, News and Gossips
There are some people who born into success, there are people who achieve success and then then there are people who have success thrust upon them! In the case of Bollywood – which takes in beautiful and sexy women, puts them through the grind and then spits them out – Katrina Kaif (or Kat as she is popularly known) is a part of the third group!
Katrina Kaif is half Kashmiri and half British, and spent a major part of her life in Britain. She first became successful and noticed as a model (and boy does she have the looks and body for that). Successful campaigns in the ad world and successful stint as a ramp model got her attention from Bollywood. And like countless models before her, she was quick to take it up.
But what makes Katrina Kaif different from the other models who came into Bollywood and went no where is the name Salman Khan. Yes, the same wild child of Bollywood – Salman Khan. Sallu bhai was nursing a heart break (courtesy of Aishwarya Rai) when he became close to Katrina Kaif. Their closeness blossomed into full blown romance.
While Katrina Kaif is no great actress (some would actually call her a terrible actress!), she has the body and the looks to survive in Bollywood. This combined with her proximity of Salman Khan ensured that she would never be out of work! Salman was and is a star with tremdous power at the box office, and his connections in Bollywood were never in question.
But lo and behold, Katrina's stars were too powerful to be even controlled by Salman. She has somehow managed to act in some of the biggest Bollywood successes at the box office in recent years. Her roster of films in the last year and half include movies like Namastey London, Partner, Welcome, Race and Singh is Kingg – these are all super hit films at the box office (and Welcome can be considered as a blockbuster by any measure).
Her sudden and unexplained success at the box office lead to her being considered a lucky charm by producers – and she is suddenly having films offered to her by some of the biggest banners in Bollywood. Her succcessful pairing with the current 'Kingg' of Bollywood Akshay Kumar – has only helped her further her career.
But her sudden success has left her with no need for Salman Khan anymore (or it could always be Salman feeling threatened). This combined with her excessive closeness with Akshay Kumar has lead people to speculate that she could be on her way out of Salman's life. (Poor guy – it was rumoured that he was actually thinking of proposing marriage to her!!)
Well guys – what do you think? Will Kat be able to continue her superb run at the box office? Will she continue to be most sought after actress in Bollywood? (for roles that dont require much ACTING – heheheh!) Will she continue to be with Salman Khan as his wife or girlfriend, or will she drop him like a hot potato and move on to greener pastures?
Do let us know what you think!

1. By now everyone has heard that if there is a three-way tie in the Big 12 South the highest ranked team in the BCS will play in the Big 12 Championship Game. That means the humans (66% of the BCS Poll) will determine the Big 12 South representative. Let's assume Oklahoma sinks the pirate ship at home next week. Try to sway the pollsters by arguing which team you think should face off against the Big 12 North.
I do not have a dog in this fight, but I will say Texas. They beat Oklahoma, shredded Missouri, beat Oklahoma State, and lost on the greatest play in Texas Tech history. Not bad for four weeks work.
2. ESPN is aggressively bidding on the rights to the BCS when Fox's contract expires after the 2009 season. My half-baked theory is if they do win the rights they will push for a +1 system. Lucrative television deals have landed ESPN in bed with each of the BCS conferences. The revenue a playoff would generate could be a huge motivator for the four letter to be the common denominator and unifier among the conferences that finally helps them all to see the light of why a playoff would be good for college football. Help expand upon or debunk this theory.
I firmly believe a playoff is closer than we think and if it takes the Worldwide Leader to get us there then so be it. I think a playoff is in the best interest in college if kept to four, or even eight teams, but I say that with a twinge of sadness, knowing the the Ohio State Michigan game will never be the same. But with the crash of hedge funds hurting college endowments, university and conference presidents will be looking for any additional stream of revenue possible. A playoff seems like a sure moneymaker.
3. Rivalry week is around the corner. How do you think your team will fare? Feel free to talk a little or a lot of trash.
I have a vested interest in The Game and I feel fairly confident, but not bulletproof. There has only been one time in the last 15 years when I was totally free of nerves for this game and that was 1998. That was the most talented Ohio State team I can remember and they were playing an average Wolverine squad coming off a national championship season. Michigan had no chance that afternoon.
For whatever reason, I do not have that same level of confidence this week. I know Michigan's chances are not great but they have a little history on their side and sometimes that is all you need in a rivalry like this one. I have seen Shawn Springs fall down. I have seen Biakabutuka run for 300 yards. I have seen Stanley Jackson run a screen pass to a Michigan LB.
I do not expect to see Nick Sheridan combine for 300 yards of total offense. But then again, I do not expect Tressel to be in a position "to go for three."
4. And now for a little fun… Assemble your dream announcing team. Pick a play-by-play announcer, color commentator, sideline reporter and for the hell of it celebrity guest that drops on by.
Mike Tirico, play-by-play
Jack Arute, Sideline
I really wanted to be snarky with this response but I am getting very tired.

Conor Oberst brings intensity to Pabst Theater
Describing the voice of Conor Oberst, many people have used the word "quaver," even after the indie singer-songwriter toned down the teenage trembling, as a 34-year-old man should.
At the Pabst Theater Saturday night, however, the word remained suitable for Oberst's live concert. His very body seemed to vibrate as if his nervous system was dosing his skin with extra voltage: Not enough to convulse him; enough to generate a low hum of surplus energy beneath his performance. »Read Full Article

Vampire (car)
The Vampire was a jet-propelled car that currently holds the outright British land speed record, driven by Colin Fallows to a mean speed of 300.3 mph (483.3 km/h) on July 5, 2000 at Elvington, Yorkshire, England.[1]
Vampire was 30 feet (9.1 m) long and consumed from 7 to 10 UK gallons of fuel per mile. Powered by a Rolls-Royce Orpheus turbojet engine, it could accelerate from standstill to 272 mph (438 km/h) in six seconds, a personal best set at Santa Pod Raceway.
Vampire was originally constructed by Allan 'Bootsie' Herridge, a pioneer British drag racer, as one of a pair of identical match-race jet dragsters in 1981.[2] The sister car "Hellbender" was involved in a crash in 1986 in which Mark Woodley, an experienced dragster driver, was killed.[3]
Vampire crashed in 2006 during shooting of a segment for the television show Top Gear, severely injuring its driver, Top Gear presenter Richard Hammond. Hammond's peak speed was higher than the official British land speed record, recording a top speed of 314 mph (505 km/h).[4] However, he did not officially break the British record as, according to the rules, two runs in different directions and an independent observer are required. Hammond crashed on his seventh run. Jeremy Clarkson joked that Hammond would have created the record for the fastest crash but would have needed to repeat the crash in the opposite direction.[5]
In December 2007, the damaged vehicle went up for sale as scrap on eBay UK.[6]

Gerry Weiss: Coming home to a growing girl
Sitting poolside at a hotel under a sizzling California sun, SPF 50 lotion slathered across my pale-as-a-ghost skin, I turned off my brain and reveled in a rare moment of unbridled relaxation.
I was a stranger to everyone.
A man in a new place with nothing to do and plenty of time on my hands.
It was a few weeks ago, and I had tagged along with my wife on her short business trip to Palo Alto.
While Erica spent her days at a conference at Stanford University, I got cozy with the hotel pool and gym, the nearby outdoor eateries, and a slew of top notch West Coast newspapers that I read from cover to cover.
Those four days were a welcome respite from the day-to-day routine -- a scenario that hardly happens when you're the father of a rambunctious toddler and you work in a deadline-driven industry.
I may have turned my brain off at the pool, but not my phone. For when Erica had a break and we could chat. For when her mother, in Erie and taking care of our daughter, would text me pictures of Nora.
There's the photo of my little girl in the park, then at the beach. The one of her polishing off a vanilla ice cream cone was my favorite.
Despite relishing my responsibility-free existence, I often found myself wondering what Nora was up to during the hours when no photographs came my way.
By the end of our trip, I missed my baby girl more than any words on this page could do justice.
We got home after a red-eye flight from Los Angeles. Nora yelled, "Daddy!" and ran into my arms for a big hug. I'd have hugged her forever if she wanted.
My daughter turns 3 one week from today. Just seeing those words makes me shake my head in amazement.
The first year of Nora's life seemed to last a lifetime to me. Maybe it was the sleep deprivation and constant stress. Maybe it was fully understanding the profound impact a child has on your heart, mind and soul.
The last two years have zipped by in a blur. My baby is now a little person, her brain a sponge absorbing everything. I'm always wondering what's going to come out of her mouth next.
First steps are replaced by gymnastics classes and the new trampoline in our dining room. Elmo is left in the dust for tea party sets.
My weekly shopping trip to Wegmans used to mean scouring the baby section for diapers, formula, Gerber foods and a host of other items. These days I'm hardly in those aisles, other than to pick up the occasional toddler toothpaste.
Last Sunday, on Mother's Day, I watched a new tradition blossom: my wife and daughter painting their fingernails and toenails.
Purple, of course. Nora's favorite color.

'Warm Bodies' finds charm in zombie love
Being one of the walking dead would be incredibly tedious, especially if you possessed self-awareness. For R (Nicholas Hoult), it means spending every day ambling around an airport with no idea how he ended up there or who he is. (He thinks his first name starts with R, but he isn't entirely sure.)
In the slightly unconventional romantic comedy "Warm Bodies," R is a zombie unsatisfied with his station in life. He can't sleep or dream and, outside of grunting, can't speak. To survive, he must feed on humans. The odds may be against him, but as he informs viewers in voice-over, R yearns for something more. »Read Full Article

Soulstice Theatre delivers shimmering 'Memory of Water'
Coming from north by northwest, take I-794 to Howard Ave. Make two quick lefts and you've arrived at the St. Francis-based digs of Soulstice Theatre, home to a tiny, gutsy troupe which - when the stars align, as they often do - offers a night out that can rival much of what's available downtown, at half the price.
The constellation appearing on the Soulstice stage right now - in a production of Shelagh Stephenson's "The Memory of Water," under David Ferrie's direction - is definitely worth the trip. »Read Full Article

In the second act of Charles Ludlam's madcap "The Mystery of Irma Vep," now on stage at Next Act Theatre, a frightened Lady Enid (a cross-dressed John McGivern) turns to housekeeper Jane Twisden (a cross-dressed Norman Moses) and pines for the protective presence of Nicodemus, her faithful manservant.
With the twitch of a smile and a twinkle in his eye, Moses' ordinarily prim Jane make clear that calling Nicodemus on stage just then simply isn't possible. »Read Full Article(1)

Bristol woman dies after hit by carNovember 26,2012
BRISTOL — An 85-year-old Bristol woman has died after she was struck by a car on Saturday while walking across the street, Bristol Police said in a press release Sunday.
The woman, Anne Roscoe, was hit by a car driven by 19-year-old Ashley Nacollas, also of Bristol, at the intersection of North Street and Park Place at around 5:51 p.m., police said. Roscoe was taken to Fletcher Allen Health Care in Burlington, where she died.
The accident is under investigation, and police say that drugs or alcohol were not a factor. Bristol Police have asked the Vermont State Police Accident Reconstruction Team to help in the investigation. The Bristol Fire Department and Vermont State Police helped the Bristol Police at the scene.

This review is from: MASSCOOL MR-3100 2.5" & 3.5" SSD/SATA Hard Disk Internal Rack
Pros: - Makes uses of an extra 5 1/4" bay
- Has both 2.5" & 3.5" bays
- Great for swapping out hard drives on a regular basis
- Power switch to be able to power down the drives when not in use
Cons: - The latch for the 3.5" door is very weak and does not properly stay closed after only a few uses (less than a dozen). The metal that secures the door latch seems to have bent so it no longer holds the latch. While I can bend it back, I don't feel confident in that being a long term fix. With the latch not securing the door properly, I can still get it to work but I have to be very careful as slight movement of the door will cause the drive to disconnect.
Other Thoughts: If they fixed the poor latching 3.5" bay door, I would have given this 5 stars but after fairly minimal use, it's already showing signs of wear.READ FULL REVIEW

Joseph Palermo: American foreign policymakers have known all along that ousting President Bashar al-Assad will not magically end the civil, ethnic, and sectarian wars that are now raging in what's left of Syria. But that fact hasn't stopped them from trying.
Obama Broke Pledge to Demand Syrian Opposition's Separation From Nusra Front
Gareth Porter: The administration's vacillation on the issue reflects the reality that the US-supported armed opposition has no intention to withdraw from its close military collaboration with Nusra Front.
Kerry Sought Missile Strikes to Force Syria's Assad to Step Down
Gareth Porter: Kerry sought to 'send a message' to Assad via cruise missile strikes against Syrian government positions but Obama refused proposal. Forcing Assad to Step Down
As Goes Syria, So Goes the World
Janet Phelan: The US engagement in the Middle East has an unexplored impetus and if allowed to continue unchecked will have unexpected and world-changing consequences.
How Terror in Paris Calls for Revising US Syria Policy
Gareth Porter: Obama's Europeans allies as well as US national security officials have urged the United State to downgrade the official US aim of achieving the departure of Bashar al-Assad from Syria.
Obama Won't Admit the Real Targets of Russian Airstrikes
Gareth Porter: It is astonishing that at this late date, anyone in the media could still be seriously suggesting that the CIA somehow managed to turn the "moderate" Syrian rebels into a powerful offensive force threatening the Assad regime in the north.
Putin in Syria: Why Not?
John Peeler: Putin will inevitably find, as the West found, that it's easier to get into the Middle East than to get out.
Russia Bashing: A Dead End
Ivan Eland: The real rub is that the current Russian leader, unlike his predecessor, the drunk buffoon Boris Yeltsin, refuses to be an American lackey and endure post-Cold War US insults.
Obama, Putin, and Assad: It Just Gets Weirder
John Peeler: Obama faces the likelihood of a defeat in Congress (and in public opinion), after which he would have to choose between acting anyway, in total political isolation, or backing off and looking weak. Either way he would look foolish.
Forget Red Lines: Obama Should Eat His Words on Syria
Adil E. Shamoo: Despite his better judgment, Obama is poised to make serious mistakes in Syria–all because he made words like "red line" part of his vocabulary.
The Effective Path To Controlling Chemical Weapons Is Not War
Kevin Zeese: President Obama Should Act Within The Rule of Law and Seek Prosecution of Members of the Assad Regime Under the Chemical Weapons Protocol Rather Than Wage an Illegal War
When In Doubt, Say "Hitler"
JP Sotille: Faced with sparse domestic and international support for launching expensive cruise missiles into the middle of a civil war, Kerry re-booted the Hitler franchise by comparing Syria's Bashar al-Assad to history's first name in unchecked evil.
"The Chickens Have Come Home to Roost"
Rodolfo F. Acuña: I am not privy to classified materials. All that I have is my mind, which I am trying to use. For me, American foreign policy is a joke. It has no rhyme or reason.

|Turret Arch framed by the North Window Arch. Look closely and you will see two young ladies standing in Window Arch.
|Landscape Arch - Unfortunately you can no longer walk under this arch. A piece of the arch fell of a few years ago so the area is fenced off.
|The Marching Men can be seen in the background of this photo. This is the trail to Tower Arch in the northwestern part of Arches National Park.
|Fallen Roof Ruin is in Road Canyon - This ruin is a little more challenging to find. I stopped in the ranger station to get a little help. But the only advice I got was "the road is impassible if it rains and it looks like rain." After capturing this shot I was returning to my car when I ran into another hiker who had been wandering the canyon for two hours looking for the ruin.
|Natural Bridges National Monument is very close to both Mule and Road Canyon. There are three large natural bridges in the monument. This is a picture of Sipapu Bridge. To get a good perspective of the sizes of these bridges you need to hike to the bottom of the canyon. You drop about 500 feet with a couple of log ladders along the way.
|I hiked the loop hike from Sipapu Bridge to Kachina Bridge. Along the canyon bottom I found this large blooming cactus.
|Kachina Bridge - After walking to House on Fire, Fallen Roof Ruin, and the loop hike to the two natural bridges I was ready to find my hotel and a good place for dinner.
|Another perspective of Castle Butte
|Valley of Gods - I thought the tree was an interesting subject and tried many compositions.
|The Goosenecks State Park - Not far from the west end of the Valley of the Gods are the goosenecks of the San Juan River. In a distance of one mile the San Juan River travels six miles as it winds back and forth.
Hovenweep National Monument was the next stop on the road trip. Round, D-shaped, and square towers were built at this site.
|Last cloud picture. As I headed back to Bluff Utah it looked like the sky might light up so I drove an additional 45 miles to reach Monument Valley.
|Unfortunately the sunset over Monument Valley did not live up to my expectations. So it was back to Bluff for bedtime.
|The next morning I headed to Page, Arizona. I stopped at Navajo National Monument to checkout Betatakin, an Ancestral Puebloans ruin. Over a 100 people lived at this site.
|After a quick lunch in Page I headed out to Horseshoe Bend. The trail to this location is about 8 feet wide and you will share it with about 300 people.
|The fort at Lee's Ferry. The ferry was one of the few locations where early Arizona settlers could cross the Colorado River.
|Balanced rock near Lee's Ferry. My Expedition is in the background.
|The original Navajo Bridge and it's replacement. In 1929 the Navajo Bridge on the left was built to replace Lee's Ferry. The ferry was used to haul some of the bridge parts across the Colorado. The was a California Condor resting on one of the bridges.
|The next morning I went on a photo tour of Cottonwood and Upper Antelope Slot Canyons. Unfortunately you can no longer take photo tours of Lower Antelope Canyon.
|Tumbleweed in Cottonwood Canyon
|Nice colors in Cottonwood.
|We walked through this little arch.
|Upper Antelope Canyon. We shared this canyon with 750 people. There were four photo tour groups here at the same time. Everyone wanted to capture the same light beams at the same time.
|A tour group was asked to hold around the corner so we could capture this shot.
|As you look up toward the top of the slot canyon the colors get lighter making for interesting compositions.
|My favorite picture from Upper Antelope Canyon
|All of the tour guides are throwing sand into the air so people can capture light beam pictures and falling sand pictures. Therefore the canyon is quite dusty. The guides are either wearing bandannas or dust mask. Wish I had one.
|One of many light beam pictures. I was standing in a line of 25 photographers. We had two minutes to get this shot so another group could get the shot.
|At the top of this picture you can see some flood debris. This material is about 15 feet above the floor. A good reason not to be in slot canyons on a raining day.
|That's all for this road trip. Hope you enjoyed the pictures.

LOS ANGELES -- California's Hispanic population, its fastest growing segment, is eating less and less produce each year.

Doing the right thingOctober 26,2013
Doing the right thing
I write to you today to say thanks for bringing to public light Montpelier resident Gwen Hallsmiths thoughtful and visionary work on the Vermont public bank issue, and the disturbing efforts of a few Montpelier city officials to try to shut down her voice behind the scenes.
We live in interesting times, and what we most need is courage, clarity of vision and compassion, even when we may disagree. Freedom of speech and freedom of the press are under siege across the United States and globally it is good to see a Vermont newspaper like the venerable Times Argus stand up and do the right thing.
Heres to free speech, freedom of the press and a public bank for the once and future republic of Vermont.
