The Michigan State Spartans finished the 2015-2016 basketball season 29-6 and the Big Ten Tournament Championship win, but were not able to end on a high note when they lost in the 1st round of the NCAA Tournament in an upset against Middle Tennessee. As Michigan State gears up for the 2016-2017 season, head coach Tom Izzo has one of the most talented recruiting class of his career with the addition of freshman Miles Bridges, a versatile forward. The Spartans 2016-2017 schedule will test the team early with games against Arizona, Kentucky and Duke. These games could give Michigan State some hits but with a talented freshman class, they are expected to improve as the season unfolds. Returning players, Eron Harris and Gavin Schilling will take on the leadership roles as stable players to replace Denzel Valentine's departure from the team. Whether you are planning on cheering on the Spartans at home games or supporting Michigan State on the road, TicketCity has some of the best deals on all Michigan State Spartans tickets, including home and away games.
The Spartans play their home games at the Jack Breslin Student Events Center, located in East Lansing, Michigan. When filled to capacity, the Jack Breslin Student Events Center holds nearly 15,000 loyal fans. The Michigan State Spartans home bench is on the Jack Breslin Student Events Center sideline in front of section 108. Jack Breslin Student Events Center parking information is covered in our Spartans event guide.
Michigan Wolverines, Ohio State Buckeyes
The rivalry between these two college programs extend to multiple sports, but the hatred is always displayed on the hardwood. This series is over 100 years old with over 170 meetings between the two teams. As one of the better rivalries in college basketball, this match-up has shown no signs of slowing down.
With both college programs consistently ranked and fighting for a Big Ten championship, Michigan State and Ohio State has quickly emerged as one of the best rivalries in college basketball. In eight of the last 10 seasons, one or the other has landed in first or second place. In three of the past four years, the Spartans and Buckeyes tied for first or second at the end of the regular season. With both teams cemented among the college elite, this rivalry will only increase in future seasons.
Michigan State has won two National Championships and have reached the Final Four eight times. The rich history continues for Michigan State as they have appeared in the NCAA Tournament over 25 times including 16 consecutively. The Spartans have also won three Big Ten conference tournaments.

I love this series soooo much ^_^
KORNdog, the series has been like this since Ace Combat 4 (at least story wise).
Posted by KORNdogVery predictable joke/ comment but as Doom Bringer says the over the top war stuff has always been the backdrop to these games only now they have moved away from the fictional earth of the previous titles.
COD : Air Warfare?
COD : Air Warfare?
If this is half as exciting as the trailers make it appear it will possibly be my GOTY, really high time for a war game that stays focused away from the grunts on the ground, like literally every other fucking game out there. No infantry force wins any conflict without air power.
Posted by munkiniYou'd be pleased to know that every infantry game has some sort of air support.

Were you aware that we have pens with a highlighter on one end and an ink pen on the other? If not, then prepare to stand in awe of the customizable Duo Highlighter Pen! There's no reason to choose between popular writing instruments as long as this essential is around.Each 2-in-1 pen shows off its highlighter color on the cap, which matches the tip within. The silver barrel complements the purple highlighter color with ease and still leaves ample room for your personalized message and/or brand name. The chisel tip makes highlighting small spaces both fun and easy, and the black ink tip writes smoothly across a number of surfaces.Plus, we like the fact that these promo pens look like they're made of metal when they're actually made of plastic (who doesn't want a giveaway that costs next to nothing and looks pricey?).But it's not all about looks. Here's what we found when we tested a Duo Highlighter Pen in our office:* The caps on both sides come off and snap back on with ease.* The barrel is thick than it looks in pictures--keep that in mind if you prefer writing with a thin pen!* The ballpoint pen side writes very smoothly and produces a lightweight black line.* We received a purple highlighter to test and saw that the ink was vibrant, but dark and concentrated, and probably best suited for making marks in margins instead of passing over writing.You'll be on a winning streak if you order your highlighter pen combos with Quality Logo Products today. The discounted price won't last forever, you know, so you'll have to act quickly if you want to seal the deal!

Program/Project Management
The structure of ancient Rome's concrete marvels is revealing clues to make its modern successors more durable and sustainable, researchers have found.
An international team of geologists and engineers is using the Advanced Light Source at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley, to describe for the first time how the Romans' calcium-aluminum-silicate-hydrate (C-A-S-H) compound bound the material used to build its long-lasting roads, monuments and harbors.
The discovery of this enduring compound could improve the life span of modern concrete, which often shows signs of degradation within 50 years.
Samples of ancient Roman concrete were drilled from a breakwater in Pozzouli Bay, near Naples, Italy. The breakwater dates back to about 37 B.C.
The research team was led by Paulo Monteiro, a UC Berkeley professor of civil and environmental engineering and a faculty scientist at Berkeley Lab; and Marie Jackson, a UC Berkeley research engineer in civil and environmental engineering.
Lifeline of an Empire
Concrete was used during the Roman Empire in monuments such as the Pantheon in Rome, as well as in wharves, breakwaters and other harbor structures.
Particularly interested in how Roman's underwater concrete endured a saltwater environment, the researchers characterized samples of Roman concrete taken from a breakwater in Pozzouli Bay, near Naples, Italy.
"Roman concrete has remained coherent and well-consolidated for 2,000 years in aggressive maritime environments," Jackson, lead author of two papers on the findings, said in a UC Berkeley article.
Roman concrete used a mix of volcanic ash with lime to form mortar, which was then immersed in seawater. Researchers say that producing this concrete leaves a smaller carbon footprint than modern Portland cement.
"It is one of the most durable construction materials on the planet, and that was no accident. Shipping was the lifeline of political, economic and military stability for the Roman Empire, so constructing harbors that would last was critical," said Jackson.
The ancient concrete combined volcanic ash with lime to form mortar, which was then packed with rock chunks into wooden molds immersed in seawater. The researchers also described aluminum tobermorite—a rare hydrothermal mineral that formed in the concrete.
"Our study provided the first experimental determination of the mechanical properties of the mineral," said Jackson.
Old-World Twist on Modern Concrete
Manufacturing Roman concrete also leaves a smaller carbon footprint than traditional concrete. Portland cement needs fossil fuels to burn calcium carbonate at about 2,642 degrees Fahrenheit, producing seven percent of the global carbon dioxide emissions each year.
Producing the lime for Roman concrete requires a temperature that is only two-thirds of that for Portland cement.
Marie Jackson, lead author on two papers about the findings, holds a 2,000-year-old sample of maritime concrete from the first century B.C.
"It's not that modern concrete isn't good—it's so good we use 19 billion tons of it a year," said Monteiro.
However, Monteiro said it is unlikely that Roman concrete will replace the current version because it is not ideal for fast hardening. But it could lead to the development of more earth-friendly and durable modern concrete, and researchers are studying whether volcanic ash would be a good substitute in countries without easy access to fly ash.
"There is not enough fly ash in this world to replace half of the Portland cement being used," said Monteiro.
"Many countries don't have fly ash, so the idea is to find alternative, local materials that will work, including the kind of volcanic ash that Romans used. Using these alternatives could replace 40 percent of the world's demand for Portland cement," Monteiro explained.
Papers and Funding
Initial funding for the research came from King Abdullah University of Science and Technology in Saudi Arabia (KAUST), which launched a research partnership with UC Berkeley in 2008.
Concrete was used during the Roman Empire in the Pantheon in Rome, as well as in other monuments, wharves, breakwaters and other harbor structures.
In addition to KAUST, funding from the Loeb Classical Library Foundation, Harvard University and the Department of Energy's Office of Science helped support the research.
Samples were provided by Marie Jackson and the Roman Maritime Concrete Study (ROMACONS), sponsored by CTG Italcementi, a research center based in Bergamo, Italy.
The researchers also used the Berlin Electron Storage Ring Society for Synchrotron Radiation (BESSY) for their analyses.
The findings are described in two papers: "Material and elastic properties of Al-tobermorite in ancient Roman seawater concrete," by Marie D. Jackson, Juhyuk Moon, Emanuele Gotti, Rae Taylor, Abdul-Hamid Emwas, Cagla Meral, Peter Guttmann, Pierre Levitz, Hans-Rudolf Wenk, and Paulo J. M.

The present application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/291,845, entitled "METHOD FOR LINKING CALL LOG INFORMATION TO ADDRESS BOOK ENTRIES AND REPLYING USING MEDIUM," filed Nov. 12, 2002, and assigned to the same assignee as this application. The aforementioned patent application is expressly incorporated herein, in its entirety, by reference.
The present invention relates to telephone call logs and, in particular, to methods for linking the call logs to address book entries for reply options.
Modem phone networks provide for the identification and logging of phone calls made across the network. The information available about these phone calls includes the date and time of the call, the duration of the call, the dialed number and the number placing the call, and the names and addresses of the persons or businesses associated with these numbers. This information can be logged in a personal computer, a private branch exchange (PBX), Centrex equipment, or a database connected to a network such as a service provider network or a TCP/IP type computer network. Most of this information is typically not made available to the general public but is used for the purposes of Call Detail Reporting, to monitor phone usage, and to provide for customer billing.
Some of such information, for example the number originating the phone call, can be displayed at the dialed number on the Customer Premises Equipment (CPE). The CPE displays the number placing the call and logs a record of that number locally along with the date and time of that call. Some services may also display the name of the subscriber assigned to the originating number. Personal computers connected to services such as Asynchronous Digital Subscriber Lines (ASDL) can also create logs of received calls that are resident locally in these computers or logged in the network. In either example, however, a person must be at the CPE or personal computer to view these received call logs and typically manually re-enters the originating numbers to return missed calls or to save the contents of the call log.
Modern telephone services utilizing Internet Protocol (IP) phone service, such as is available with ASDL, provide added functionality over conventional wire line type phones. In particular, IP phones can alert a subscriber to an incoming or waiting call using "pop-up" style on-screen windows. The user can then choose whether or not to answer the call. In addition, such services provide for the logging of phone calls into a call log associated with an IP phone number. The subscriber can then access and review the call log. Examples of such services can be found in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,282,275 and 6,353,611. The use of the information contained in these call logs, however, has been quite limited. Moreover, the call logs are stand alone applications and are not integrated with other computer based programs located at a subscriber's premises.
Therefore, a method is desired to provide increased utilization and functionality of a telephone call log. Such increased utilization would include integration with other computer based communication and address book programs for storage and retrieval of call log information, and use of that information to contact call log entries.
An embodiment of a method according to the present invention links the call log contents of a call to address book entries stored either locally on a customer's personal computer or on a network, to provide option in replying to that call. The method includes retrieving the call log associated with the called phone number from a first database, selecting at least one entry from the list of callers in the call log, retrieving at least one address book for the selected entry from a second database, the address book comprising a plurality of contact addresses for the selected entry, selecting one or more contact addresses, and contacting the selected entry using the selected contact addresses via a medium of choice (e.g., E-mail, I-page, or alternate phone numbers).
In order to retrieve the address book, a customer interfaces with a call log manager that launches at least one computer executable address program having access to the address books stored in the second database, searches the second database for address books associated with the selected entry, retrieves at least one address book associated with the selected dialing number entry, and displays the contents of the retrieved address books. The contact addresses include E-mail addresses, internet pager addresses, wire line phone numbers, internet protocol phone numbers, telefacsimile numbers, instant messaging addresses, personal digital assistant addresses, or combinations thereof.
After the customer selects one or more contact addresses, the call log manager launches at least one computer executable communication program capable of utilizing the selected contact addresses. The customer then uses this communication program to contact the parties associated with the selected entries from the call log.
The method of the present invention provides the advantage of providing a customer with increased utilization of the contents of a call log to manage missed phone calls. In addition, management and use of the call log is provided in a single automated environment that provides for contacting parties using any one of a number of communications media, saving the customer time in have to look up addresses for the entries in a call log and launching separate programs to communicate with these entries.
A method according to the present invention uses call log information to retrieve a caller profile and to reply using the medium and address of choice. This method can be used to retrieve and utilize the contents of call logs stored in databases that are located both internally and externally to telephone networks or Service Provider Networks (SPN) including wireless networks and wireline networks such as Publicly Switched Telephone Networks (PSTN). Preferably, the call logs are stored in databases located at the premises of subscribers or customers of the SPN.
Referring initially to
The SPN 2 is connected to one or more wireless communication networks 6. Each wireless communication network includes transmission equipment 7, such as cellular towers, for communicating with a plurality of wireless devices 8 such as, for example, cellular phones, pagers and personal digital assistants (PDA). The wireless devices are in communication with the SPN 2.
The SPN 2 also includes a plurality of Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) customers 9, for example Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Line (ASDL) customers. These subscribers have CPE that includes, for example, personal computers 10 and telephones for use as conventional phones or as IP-type phones. The DSL subscribers CPE interface with the SPN through a plurality of routers 12 or DSL line modems disposed at the subscribers' premises. The routers are connected to one or more Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexers (DSLAM) 13 disposed, for example, at a central office 14. Each DSL subscriber can also include one or more subscriber databases 16 for logging information locally including call logs. In one embodiment, the subscriber databases 16 are disposed in the CPE personal computers 10.
The DSLAMs can be in direct communication with the SPN through a directed communication link 15. Alternatively, the DSLAMs are connected to a computer network 17, such as a wide area network including the internet or world wide web, through an Internet Service Provider (ISP) 18. The computer network is in communication with the SPN through a web portal 19. The computer network may also include a plurality of additional computers 20 directly connected to the network itself, and one or more databases (not shown) for storing information including call logs. This network configuration permits communication and data transfer among the numerous devices, networks, and subscribers using various types of equipment, methods, and protocols readily available and known in the art.
Referring to
The customer interfaces with the SPN or the first database using the customer's CPE, including both wire line subscriber CPE and DSL subscriber CPE, through a wireless device in the wireless network, or through a computer connected to the computer network. Suitable methods to access the SPN include E-mail, internet website interfaces using, for example, windows-type environments, and dedicated call-up servers. In one embodiment, the customer retrieves the call log using a computer. In another embodiment, the computer is a customer premises computer 10 in communication with the first database. Preferably, the first database 16 and the customer premises computer 10 are located at the premises of the customers associated with the phone numbers for which the call logs have been retrieved. In one embodiment, the first database is disposed within the customer premises computer.
In one embodiment, retrieval of a call log is facilitated by a call log manager program that runs on the computer that the customer uses to retrieve the call log. The call log manager can access the first database, read, and display the contents of the call log on the customer's computer screen.
Once the customer has retrieved at least one call log, the subscriber can view the contents of the call log. The call log can be formatted and arranged using any suitable method for providing lists of database information that are available and known in the art. Preferably, the call log is formatted as a list of entries arranged in chronological order and containing information about the calls placed to the phone number for which the call log was retrieved. This information includes the date and time of each call, the phone number placing the call, and the status of the call, for example "Left Message", "Hung Up" or "Answered". The customer scrolls the list and selects entries from the list using conventional methods for scrolling list and selecting entries 18. Preferably, each entry is provided as a hyperlink, and the entries are selected by pointing to the desired entry using a computer pointing device such as a mouse and "clicking" on that entry. Multiple entries can be selected from the list using methods known in the art such as depressing and holding the CTRL key while "clicking" multiple entries. Again, the call log manager facilitates these functions.
Once the desired entries are selected, at least one address book is retrieved for each selected entry from a second database. Suitable second databases are located internal to the SPN and at the premise of the customer associated with the phone number for which the call log has been retrieved. Preferably, the second database is located at the premises of the customer. In one embodiment, the second database is disposed within the customer premises computer. Preferably, the first and second databases are the same database.
In order to retrieve the address books for the selected entries, at least one computer executable address program is launched automatically by the call log manager 19 upon selection of the entries by the customer The address programs have access to the second database and are capable of reading the various formats in which the address books are stored. Suitable formats for the address books include, but are not limited to, OUTLOOK� commercially available from the Microsoft Corporation, Hotmail� commercially available from the Microsoft Corporation, Eudora commercially available from Software Oasis, Inc., Bigfoot™ commercially available from Bigfoot Communications, InfoSpace™ commercially available from InfoSpace, Inc., and BellSouth.net™ commercially available from BellSouth Incorporated. The address books were previously stored in the second database by the associated native programs.
The address program then searches all of the address book formats on the second database for address books related to the selected entries 20. In order to facilitate this searching, the call log manager extracts identification information from the selected entries such as phone numbers. The address program then searches all address books for the extracted phone numbers. Once the address books have been located, the call log manager retrieves at least one address book associated with each selected entry 21 and displays the contents of the retrieved address books to the requesting customer 22, preferably on the screen of the customer premises computer. In one embodiment, the call log manager displays the retrieved address books in the format of the application associated with that address book. In another embodiment, the call log manager extracts information from the various address books and creates and displays a single address book containing the accumulated information. The call log manager also facilitates moving among the various address books. In one embodiment, the call log manager provides for the synchronization of information among the various address books associated with a single call log to the extent that each address book supports a specific type of information.
Each displayed address book contains a plurality of contact addresses for the selected entry to which it is associated. Each contact address represents a different format or method for contacting the party that contacted or attempted to contact the phone number for which the call log was requested. Suitable contact addresses include E-mail addresses, internet pager addresses, wire line phone numbers, wire less phone numbers, internet protocol phone numbers, telefacsimile numbers, instant messaging addresses, personal digital assistant addresses, and combinations thereof. The contact addresses are displayed by the same methods and formats as the call logs, and the customer can view and select entries from the contact address list using the same methods as for the call log.
The customer then selects one or more contact addresses from the displayed list of contents of the address books 23. The customer selects the contact addresses based upon the method by which that customer wishes to contact the party that called. For example, the party may wish to immediately contact the party that called by dialing the party's cellular phone. Alternatively, the customer may send a fax or contact the party that called via E-mail. Once the contact addresses are selected, then the call log manager launches at least one computer executable communications program capable of utilizing the selected contact address to contact the party that called 24. In one embodiment, the call log manager launches independent existing programs associated with the contact addresses. In another embodiment, the call log manager launches an independent proprietary program capable of utilizing the contact address including using E-mail and internet protocol phones, both software and handset types. In order to facilitate use of the contact address, the call log manager can interface with the internet or World Wide Web through an internet protocol network interface. The call log manager then prompts the customer for any additional information as needed and contacts the party associated with the selected contact address 25.
As an example of the use of the method of the present invention as illustrated in
The call log manager extracts the phone number, NPA-NNN-NNNN, from the selected entry 29 and searches the second database for all address books containing or associated with that phone number. As is shown in
Other embodiments and uses of the present invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art from consideration of this application and practice of the invention disclosed herein. The present description and examples should be considered exemplary only, with the true scope and spirit of the invention being indicated by the following claims. As will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art, variations and modifications of each of the disclosed embodiments, including combinations thereof, can be made within the scope of this invention as defined by the following claims.

William Nelson Dewar III
It is bittersweet to announce the passing of a very loving husband, father, son, brother, uncle, and friend. William Nelson Dewar III, 62, passed away on September 19, 2013, after a 25-year struggle with Multiple Sclerosis.
He was born October 13, 1950, in Aurora, Colorado, to William Nelson and Marjorie Belle (Mussetter) Dewar Jr. On January 4, 1972, he was united in marriage to the love of his life, Judy Kay McClure, in Colorado Springs, Colorado. A1968 graduate of Mitchell High School, he attended one year at Colorado State University in Pueblo before enlisting in the
U.S. Marine Corps
on November 3, 1969. Bill served his country during the
Vietnam War
as a Communications Specialist stationed at Camp Pendleton, California, and Okinawa Prefecture before being honorably discharged on November 3, 1972.
Bill and Judy returned to Colorado Springs where Bill attended Pikes Peak Community College and upon graduation was employed as a welder/mechanic with Baab Steel for a decade and then R.E. Monks Construction.
Bill loved the game of softball and played on the Merchants and Good Riddance Leagues until he was no longer physically able. It was often said his children were weaned on home plate because that is where you could always find him outside of work.
He is survived by his angelic wife of 41 years, Judy; his caring daughter, Sandra Dewar and significant other of Colorado Springs; his proud son Robert Dewar and significant other of Monument, Colorado; two doting sisters, Linda Larsen, Monument, Colorado; and Patricia Mirehouse, Colorado Springs; four nieces, two great-nieces, four great-nephews; and the compassionate staff at the Union Printers Home.
He was preceded in death by both parents.
Bill never complained and if asked he was always "good." Those fortunate to have known him cherish the memory of his quiet strength, tolerance, patience, kind heart, and gentle soul. Semper Fi, Bill, play ball until we meet again.
A Memorial Service with Military Honors officiated by Sandy & Bob Dewar, will be held at 11AM on Thursday, September 26, 2013, at Evergreen Funeral Home, 1830 E. Fountain Blvd. with a reception immediately following at the same location.
Memorials may be made in Bill's honor to the Union Printers Home, 101 South Union Blvd, Colorado Springs, CO 80910 (719-634-3711)

On 20 August 1838 the Austrian Lloyd inaugurated a regular service from Trieste to the Bay of Kotor: before 1844 twenty cruises were made, that carried almost 2,900 passengers.
To illustrate their itineraries, the company entrusted to the painter Joseph Rieger from Trieste the task of reproducing the landscapes and ports of Istria and Dalmatia. His work resulted in detailed views about 25x17 cm, glued to each other to form two strips of three and ten meters, folded accordion-bound in two volumes in cardboard, depicting the entire coast from Trieste to the Austrian-Turkish border.
While it is likely that a small number was given to the officers for use on board, most copies would be dedicated to tourism promotion and were thus distributed or sold to guests of the ship as a souvenir of the trip, which justifies the large circulation of the volumes.
Rieger probably made his drawings on the basis of similar coastal profiles of the Adriatic "Carta di cabottaggio" , produced by the Austrians in the years 1822-24, which he later improved during inspections on site: his representation of many coastal towns are detailed and certainly true, and not only attractive but also the more interesting as historical and environmental documents.
The first volume, entitled Costa occidentale / dell'Istria / disegnata per ordine del / Lloyd austriaco / da / Giuseppe Rieger (Trieste, Linassi Lithograph), has a title-page with a geometrical layout, though decorated with swirls and flourishes, and opens with a historic summary and a summary of statistics. While the second gives brief geographical and economic information, the first outlines the history of Istria from "500 BC, when the peoples of Istria passed from the Black Sea into the Adriatic ...," until 1813, when "the region was conquered by Austria.
His brief overview concludes with the news that the steam-line was activated in Istria in 1845, though in fact the Lloyd had already established it some years before. Therefore it is likely that in 1845 there was the official inauguration of an event that had previously encountered some difficulties, and that the book of views was meant to emphasize that happy occasion.
The second book, published in 1850, has a spectacular cover, is titled Panorama / della Costa e delle Isole di / Dalmazia / nei viaggi dei Piroscafi del Lloyd austriaco. / Disegnato per ordine dello Stabilimento suddetto / da Giuseppe Rieger. / Trieste, Litografia di B. Linassi e C., and illustrates the coast from Pula to the Bay of Kotor.
The books are compiled with careful attention to information needs of passengers, almost like a concise guide. Each view has Italian place-names and indicates their distance in miles from Trieste, but often provides additional news, such as the number of inhabitants, heights of mountains, local Authorities in major towns and features of particular buildings.
Another outstanding feature is the sense of calm that the views express, representing smooth waters near the coast, as if navigation took place entirely within internal safe channels, so as to suggest confidence to passengers.
An evident promotional aim emerges also from the representation - in the views - of the steamships of the Lloyd, in service along those coasts, drawn out of scale with respect to the landscape and with great precision, to enable better identification: as reported by Umberto Del Bianco - who in 1977 published In Istria e in Dalmazia / con il Lloyd austriaco / Itinerario di un viaggio marittimo tra Trieste e Cattaro / disegnato da Giuseppe Rieger, with ample historical commentary - the ships are the "Count Mitrowski", "The Baron Sturmer" and "Baron von Kubeck" that Lloyd had assigned to the Trieste-Pula route: they were identical wooden paddle boats, 38 meter-long, about 230 tons each, launched in 1837 the first two, and the third in 1842.
Altogether the views of Istria and Dalmatia are over twenty meter-long and are perhaps the only full representation of the eastern Adriatic coast.
The two volumes were reprinted by Campanotto Publisher (Trieste, 1991) and various editions of the originals are available at the Public Library Sormani, Milan, and at the Naval Museum of Rijeka. A facsimile reprint of the third edition dedicated to Dalmatia was published in 2003 by prof. Mithad Kozlicic at the Croatian Hydrographic Institute in Split (email), with extensive historical and critical multilingual notes, which will certainly please those who love the beautiful coast of Croatia and Eastern Adriatic in general.

In this book there are entire chapters devoted to the most widely used bird counting techniques, and attempts to amalgamate other counting methodologies into major groups were made. Examples of the use of methods are provided wherever possible and the relative value of various approaches for answering specific questions is also addressed.
About C. J. BibbyColin Bibby is Director of Science and Policy at the International Council for Bird Preservation where he is interested in the role of birds as indicators for global biodiversity conservation. While Head of Conservation Science at the Royal Society for the Protection of birds, he was a co-author of Red Data Birds in Britain. In both capacities, he has been struck by the small number of birds of conservation concern which have been counted adequately. He has counted birds in Britain and Europe, as a professional, as an amateur participant, and as an organizer of surveys for the British Trust for Ornithology. He was motivated to start this book by the belief that bird-watchers would contribute more to conservation if they put more effort into counting birds, but lack of guidance on methods was a handicap. Neil Burgess completed a B.Sc. in Botany and a Ph.D. in Palaeobotany (evolution of the earliest land plants), after which he started work at the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds. He worked on reserves and in the headquarters in Sandy on the management of habitats for birds. During this time the main work on the first edition of Bird Census Techniques was completed. In 1990 he became more involved with African conservation and biodiversity research through project management in the Africa Section of the International Department of the RSPB, and as Research Director of the Society for Environmental Exploration. Most of his work concentrated on tropical forest and wetland habitats in Africa and Southeast Asia, including ornithological surveys. He moved to the Danish Center for Tropical Biodiversity at the University of Copenhagen in 1994 to coordinate and develop programs aiming to map the distribution of biodiversity in Africa. He also worked as International Project Development Officer for the Danish Ornithological Society in 1995-1998. He has maintained an interest in ornithological survey work in Europe, but has moved increasingly into project management work in the tropics and Eastern Europe mainly through setting up and managing programs to assess biodiversity values and to undertake practical conservation actions. David Hill is Chief Executive of Ecoscope Applied Ecologists which was established in 1992 to provide research and consulting services in ecology to both the public and private sectors in the UK and overseas. Much of Ecoscope's work involves the use of quality survey methods, many based on those described in this book. These methods are becoming increasingly important as standards for environmental assessment and he is actively involved in developing and setting practice standards for survey and evaluation within the profession. David Hill received his doctorate in bird ecology from the Edward Grey Institute of Field Ornithology at the University of Oxford in 1982 after which he moved to the Game Conservancy and later, as Senior Ecologist, to the RSPB. Much of this work involved studies of marked birds, their behavior and habitat preferences in relation to land use. In addition, he set up experiments and monitoring studies on RSPB reserves which brought him into close contact with sampling different bird species and habitats. In 1989 he became Director of Development at the British Trust for Ornithology with responsibility for setting up and running research contracts on estuaries, farmland, woodland and uplands using the methods outlined in this book. He has published a number of books and numerous papers on bird population ecology, habitat ecology and conservation, ecological assessment and mitigation. What started as a passion at the age of five has provided a rewarding career. He hopes this book, in giving to others tools to count birds, will engage enthusiasm and provide a similar reward to many, whilst at the same time yielding essential information for conservation. Simon Mustoe is a research consultant with Ecoscope Applied Ecologists. He graduated in ecology from the University of East Anglia in 1995 after which he led a multi-national team of researchers to Madagascar as part of an integrated conservation development project, part funded by the BirdLife/FFI/BP Conservation Program. He has worked both as a bird researcher at the RSPB and as an assistant to the African Important Bird Areas (IBA) project at BirdLife International. Simon specializes in ornithological assessments, being familiar with a wide range of different methods and having worked in a range of situations as diverse as tropical forests and the Northeast Atlantic. His experience of modern methods of large scale surveys using distance sampling, led to his being involved in the important task of bringing these chapters up to date.

G20 leaders to avoid protectionism
Group of 20 leaders meeting in London this week are set to reiterate a pledge to avoid protectionism and complete stalled global trade discussions but offer little to those urging more economic stimulus.
A 24-point draft of the G20 meeting's final communiqué does not comprise specific plans for a fiscal stimulus package, which had been opposed by European countries. The document claims the fiscal expansion already in process will raise global output by more than 2 percentage points and create more than 20 million jobs.
Hedge funds will be subject to the oversight of a stronger Financial Stability Forum, which has expanded to include all G20 members and been renamed the Financial Stability Board.

STATE OF NEW JERSEY, PLAINTIFF-RESPONDENT,v.JACHIN ICKES, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.
On appeal from the Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division, Atlantic County, Indictment No. 07-05-1087A.
Argued September 15, 2009
Before Judges Gilroy and Simonelli.
On May 10, 2007, an Atlantic County Grand Jury charged defendant in a single count indictment with second-degree robbery, N.J.S.A. 2C:15-1. Tried to a jury, defendant was convicted as charged. On June 20, 2008, after determining that mitigating sentencing factors, N.J.S.A. 2C:44-1b(7), (9) and (10), substantially outweighed aggravating sentencing factors, N.J.S.A. 2C:44-1a(9) and (12), the court sentenced defendant to a term appropriate for a crime one degree lower, that is, the court sentenced defendant to a four-year term of imprisonment, subject to an 85% period of parole ineligibility, pursuant to the No Early Release Act (NERA), N.J.S.A. 2C:43-7.2. The court also imposed all appropriate fines and penalties.
On appeal, defendant argues:
DURING VOIR DIRE, THE JUDGE'S DISCUSSION OF THE LAW REGARDING EVALUATION OF THE STATE'S EVIDENCE CONFUSED THE MEMBERS OF THE JURY POOL, INTERFERED WITH THEIR PROPER CONSIDERATION OF THE STATE'S BURDEN OF PROOF, AND ENTITLES DEFENDANT TO A REMAND.*fn1
We agree with defendant's argument in Point I and reverse.
On the evening of April 12, 2007, defendant patronized at least three restaurants or bars in Atlantic City, and drank a minimum of eight cocktails, beers and shots. On that same evening, Harold Kim, a seventy-five-year old male,*fn2 was in Atlantic City. On April 13, 2007, at approximately 4:25 a.m., Kim was in the bus terminal waiting room at the Tropicana Casino & Resort intending to board a bus to return to Flushing, New York. Aware that riders generally give the bus driver a $2 tip on boarding the bus, Kim sought to obtain change of a five-dollar bill from the terminal's cashier. Unable to obtain change from the cashier, Kim exited the terminal and started to board the bus which had parked a few feet outside of the waiting room's doorway.
As Kim boarded the bus holding his bus ticket and the five-dollar bill in his hand, defendant approached him from his side and stepped on one of Kim's feet. As he did so, defendant placed his hand around Kim's neck and lifted him off the ground while repeatedly asking Kim his name. While facing the bus driver, Kim asked the driver to call the police. In response, defendant, keeping his hand around Kim's neck, told Kim that he was the police. Believing that defendant was attempting to take the five-dollar bill out of his hand, Kim placed the bill into his own mouth.
Defendant pulled Kim from the bus stairway and threw Kim onto the ground, as observers screamed for defendant to let Kim go. While on the ground, defendant placed his foot on Kim's chest. Kim crawled out from underneath defendant on his hands and knees, and re-entered the waiting room. While crawling, Kim hollered for the police, causing the five-dollar bill to drop from his mouth. Kim placed the bill into his jacket pocket.
Although Kim possessed a wallet containing $75, defendant never attempted to take the wallet, never demanded any money from Kim, or never sought to escape. As a result of the assault, Kim suffered pain throughout his body; lacerations to his hands and face; and an injury to his chest, for which he received medical treatment over the next several months.
Approximately eight individuals waiting to board buses witnessed the attack. One witness, Robert Conner, observed defendant swinging Kim around and throwing him down to the ground. Conner, attempting to assist Kim, heard defendant state that he was with the "CIA" or "FBI," and described defendant as acting if Kim was his prisoner. Conner described defendant's behavior as "deranged," "out of control" and "not all there, maybe on drugs or nuts."
Conner later explained that he did not believe defendant was drunk, but rather may have been on medication or had missed taking a required medication, "because someone in the right mind, to me, wouldn't be acting like that. . . It seemed more like a medical issue." Conner neither witnessed defendant attempting to take the five-dollar bill out of Kim's hand, nor heard defendant demand any money from Kim. According to Conner, "it wasn't a money issue." After witnessing the assault, Conner, along with several casino security guards who had arrived on the scene, separated the two men and kept them apart until the police arrived. While waiting for the police to respond, security guard Kevin Lippert asked Kim what had happened. Although Kim informed Lippert that defendant had physically pulled him from the bus and threw him to the ground, Kim never mentioned that defendant was attempting to take his five-dollar bill.
Patrolman Alexus Smith and William Logan, Jr., of the Atlantic City Police Department, responding to the scene, observed defendant acting belligerently. As the police officers walked toward defendant, defendant calmed down, allowing them to approach and arrest him. After the police placed handcuffs on defendant, they attempted to escort him from the terminal's waiting room, but defendant buckled his knees and refused to walk. With the assistance of several security guards, the police placed defendant into officer Smith's patrol vehicle. During the ride to police headquarters, defendant became aggressive, initially throwing his body back and forth in the rear of the patrol vehicle, and then up against the glass and metal cage that separated the rear of the vehicle from its front. While on route, defendant growled and spoke incoherently. Both Smith and Logan described defendant as acting erratically, as if under the influence of drugs.
At trial, in addition to presenting the testimony of Kim, Conner, and the two arresting police officers, all of whom testified in accordance with the aforementioned, the State introduced a videotape from the casino's security cameras that captured part of the events that occurred both outside and within the waiting room of the terminal. The tape does not show Kim standing inside the bus stairwell, nor that part of the assault that occurred on the sidewalk after defendant pulled Kim from the bus and threw him to the ground. Additionally, the videotape does not show the five-dollar bill Kim testified to having in his possession; nor was a five-dollar bill recovered by the police at the scene of the assault. Although defendant testified as to visiting restaurants and taverns earlier in the evening of the assault, he stated that he could not recall any events that occurred after 3:15 a.m. until he awoke in police custody later that morning after his arrest. At the time of defendant's arrest, defendant had in his possession $150 and several of his own credit cards.
Defendant argues in Point I that the trial court erred in failing to sua sponte instruct the jury on the lesser-included offenses of third-degree aggravated assault and simple assault*fn3 because the facts provided a clear and rational basis to convict on either charge and to acquit on the robbery charge. Defendant contends that the failure to charge these lesser-included offenses left the jurors with an inappropriate "all-or-nothing" choice. Because defendant did not raise this argument during trial, we review the argument under the plain error rule. R. 1:7-2; R. 2:10-2; State v. Torres, 183 N.J. 554, 564 (2005).
A reviewing court will reverse on the basis of an unchallenged error, only if the error was "clearly capable of producing an unjust result." Ibid.; State v. Castagna, 187 N.J. 293, 312 (2006); State v. Macon, 57 N.J. 325, 337 (1971). To reverse for plain error, the reviewing court must determine that there is a real possibility that the error led to an unjust result, that is, "one sufficient to raise a reasonable doubt as to whether the error led the jury to a result it otherwise might not have reached." Macon, supra, 57 N.J. at 336.
Proper jury instructions "are essential for a fair trial." State v. Green, 86 N.J. 281, 287 (1981). The court must give the jury "a comprehensible explanation of the questions that the jury must determine, including the law of the case applicable to the facts that the jury may find." Id. at 287-88. The jury charge should include instructions on all "essential and fundamental issues and those dealing with substantially material points." Id. at 290. Because a defendant should be tried with correct jury instructions, "an erroneous charge will rarely stand on the ground that the error was harmless." State v. Barden, 195 N.J. 375, 394 (2008).
In State v. Thomas, the Court reaffirmed the distinction "between those charges that are included within the charges in the grand jury indictment (included offenses) and those that relate to the charges returned by the grand jury (related offenses)." 187 N.J. 119, 129 (2006). "Whether an offense is an included offense of another charge requires a comparison of the statutory elements of each charge." Ibid. "On the other hand, whether offenses are related is not a function of a comparison of statutory elements. Instead, the focus is whether the offense charged and the related offense share a common factual nucleus." Id. at 130. Lesser-included offenses are those that are "established by proof of the same or less than all the facts required to establish the commission of the offense charged," N.J.S.A. 2C:1-8d(1), or "[they] consist[] of an attempt or conspiracy to commit the offense charged or to commit an offense otherwise included therein," N.J.S.A. 2C:1-8d(2), or "differ[] from the offense charged only in the respect that a less serious injury or risk of injury to the same person, property or public interest or a lesser kind of culpability suffices to establish [their] commission," N.J.S.A. 2C:1-8d(3). Thomas, supra, 187 N.J. at 130-31.
What is more, lesser-included offenses should only be charged to the jury if there is a rational basis in the evidence for the jury to convict the defendant of the included offense. N.J.S.A. 2C:1-8e; Thomas, supra, 187 N.J. at 131; State v. Brent, 137 N.J. 107, 117 (1994). Simply stated, there must be a rational basis to "find[] the defendant not guilty of the greater offense, as well as guilty of the lesser offense." State v. Pantusco, 330 N.J. Super. 424, 445 (App. Div.), certif. denied, 165 N.J. 527 (2000).
While "the 'rational basis' test . . . 'imposes a low threshold,'" State v. Scherzer, 301 N.J. Super. 363, 480 (App. Div. 1997) (quoting State v. Crisantos, 102 N.J. 265, 278 (1986)), the requirement must be more than an abstract reason for believing that the jury may acquit the defendant on the greater charge and return a guilty verdict on the lesser charge. "'[S]heer speculation does not constitute a rational basis.'" Thomas, supra, 187 N.J. at 132 (quoting Brent, supra, 137 N.J. at 118).
Where neither defendant nor the State requests a charge of a lesser-included offense, "'a trial court has an independent obligation to instruct on lesser-included charges when the facts adduced at trial clearly indicate that a jury could convict on the lesser while acquitting on the greater offense.'" Id. at 132 (quoting State v. Jenkins, 178 N.J. 347, 361 (2004)); see also State v. Garron, 177 N.J. 147, 180 (2003); State v. Savage, 172 N.J. 374, 397 (2002). However, charging a lesser-included offense should not "cause complete surprise, or [be] so inconsistent with the defense as to undermine the fairness of the proceedings." Garron, supra, 177 N.J. at 181. It is against these principles that we consider defendant's argument.
Depending on the facts adduced at trial, charges of third-degree and simple assault may be considered lesser-included offenses of robbery. A person is guilty of robbery if "in the course of committing a theft, he: (1) [i]nflicts bodily injury or uses force upon another; or (2) [t]hreatens another with or purposely puts him in fear of immediate bodily injury; or (3) [c]ommits or threatens immediately to commit any crime of the first or second degree." N.J.S.A. 2C:15-1. N.J.S.A. 2C:12-1b(7) defines third-degree assault as when one "[a]ttempts to cause significant bodily injury purposely or knowingly or, under circumstances manifesting extreme indifference to the value of human life recklessly causes such significant bodily injury." N.J.S.A. 2C:12-1a(1) defines simple assault in part as where a person "[a]ttempts to cause or purposely, knowingly or recklessly causes bodily injury to another."
We are satisfied that under these statutes, defendant's assault of Kim constituted an element or an integral part of the alleged robbery. We are also satisfied that there was a rational basis for the jury to acquit defendant of robbery and convict him of the lesser-included offense of assault. Although Kim believed that defendant was attempting to take the five-dollar bill out of his hand, there was sufficient evidence in the record for a reasonable jury to find to the contrary.
Defendant identified himself as a police officer, or member of the FBI or CIA, and held Kim as an officer might hold a prisoner while taking the prisoner into custody. Although defendant asked Kim several times for Kim's last name, defendant never demanded that Kim give him any money. Nor did defendant attempt to take Kim's wallet. As Conner testified, the incident "wasn't a money issue." Defendant did not attempt to flee the scene but rather stayed there until the police arrived, all the time acting in an erratic manner, as if under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Clearly, under these facts, a reasonable jury could have concluded that defendant neither intended nor attempted to take the five-dollar bill out of Kim's possession.
We conclude that the failure to charge the lesser-included offenses of third-degree and simple assault constituted plain error because such failure to charge may have led the jury to convict defendant of robbery when it would not have done so had the assault been presented to them as an alternate basis on which to convict. See State v. Sloann, 111 N.J. 293, 299 (1988) (holding that "[w]here one of the elements of the offense charged remains in doubt, but the defendant is plainly guilty of some offense, the jury is likely to resolve doubts in favor of conviction.") (quoting Keeble v. United States, 412 U.S. 205, 212-13 (1973)).

I have so many memories of going out early in the morning on Black Friday to shop with my family. We were like a basketball team invading stores, stealing the deals before the opponent and then heading straight for the basket to SCORE! Now I am all about relaxed Cyber Monday shopping from the comfort of my home. I set the mood at my desk with the scents, sights and sounds of Christmas while I shop. No lines, no crowds, no need to get dressed and no need to take my four screaming kids into the wild shopping arena.
Cyber Monday is usually an all day event where retailers have deals online only. Some special deals have limited quantities so it is best to shop early. Over the years I have found that Cyber Monday deals are typically on completely different items than Black Friday so if there was something you wanted and it wasn't on sale Friday try Cyber Monday!
Here are my tips for relaxed Cyber Monday shopping:
On Sunday evening (today) -
- Find Yourself A Merry Little Spot to Shop- Find a spot to set up shop (literally).
- Set the Holly Jolly Mood- Make a cup of hot cocoa, turn on the Cyber Monday playlist I created and light a deliciously scented candle (I'm burning Pumpkin Apple Harvest American Home™ by Yankee Candle® brand which I purchased on Walmart.com)
- Make a List and Check it Twice- Grab pen, paper and any sale flyers you might have. Start searching for items advertised on your favorite retail websites. Most places will have their Cyber Monday deals advertised so you can start making your lists for Monday shopping. Be sure to keep an eye out for even more money saving coupons and deals!
On Monday-
- Start Shopping! Grab the deals you wanted and don't forget to check your email for any additional coupon codes from any retailers you subscribe to.
My youngest Emmett has been sick and had me up the past three nights. He is really congested and since he is too little to know hot to blow his nose he makes himself sick. It has been real fun (not). I wouldn't have been able to do any shopping this past weekend if I wanted to. There was so much going on and with him being sick I got NOTHING done that I needed or wanted to. Tomorrow is back to the grind for me and I'm staying up late making my list and then making my purchases. I have been back and fourth using my phone to check retail apps and my computer to check websites.
If we are being honest I will tell you I have only purchased four gifts so far this year. We are toning things down and started picking names with one side of the family. We told our extended family to please not gift us anything this year. There are still those people that I feel like I HAVE to buy for but I never know what to give. We all have those types of people right? I found a Cyber Monday deal at Walmart for their American Home™ by Yankee Candle® brand and that is what they are getting! Candles always seem like the perfect gift for the person who has everything or the one who is hard to buy for.
Tomorrow Walmart.com has a Cyber Monday Deal for two 19 ounce American Home™ by Yankee Candle® brand candles for only $22. They are the ones below - Sparkling Cinnamon Spice and Fresh Balsam Fir. Both fragrances instantly remind me of the holiday season. That is a Cyber Monday steal if you ask me!
One of my favorite fragrances this season is Pumpkin Apple Harvest American Home™ by Yankee Candle® brand. It carries from Fall into Winter. I have the two wick tumbler and the gel beads which I like to put in my car.
What's on your Cyber Monday list this year? If you have any extra tips please share them in the comments!!
