i recently rediscovered john's plastic ono band release. this is probably my favorite solo beatle album (paul's band on the run and george's all things must pass following close behind). it is so grim and intense. you wouldn't think an album by one of the lovable moptops would be (or even could be) so dark. the idea of a grown man screaming at the top of his lungs for his mommy and daddy would be laughable. but it isn't. it is hypnotic in its nakedness and rawness.
i always found working class hero and god to be high points in john's solo career. my local radio station plays them both on occasion (with certain profanities bleeped out, natch). but i am surprised that WCH hero wasn't covered more by other artists (i know green day did a decent job of it a while back). it seems like it could have been a rock and roll (or even punk) anthem. and god is just too personally...well, john-ish to be covered.
but the song remember...it ends with a haunting...remember the 5th of november...and a crash (or explosion) of some sort. anyone have an idea what he was referring to? was it a personal event or tragedy or a national one?

Weight Station - Page 3
"Besides burning calories, running helps control my weight in that if I'm training for a particular race, I'm motivated to eat sensibly, for example, by including more vegetables. If there's no racing goal on my horizon, I tend to eat more junk food and put on weight," says Crowther.
Because of the disappointingly modest number of calories burned during one running session at a moderate pace, we must therefore run consistently enough to cause an overall calorie deficit—several days a week.
For this reason, most researchers consider aerobic exercise a weak method for accelerating weight loss. A one-year study at Stanford University (King et al 1991) found that 350 men and women, who did three to five exercise sessions lasting 30 to 40 minutes each, had no significant weight loss (although their aerobic fitness improved from five to eight percent).
So to burn substantial numbers of calories for weight loss we need to run at least one hour per day, six or seven days per week, at a fast clip; if you ask prototypical thin distance runners about their training, you will find they run close to this amount and pace. A caveat here: beware of overeating because you are hungry from your running program—this will negate the effects of the calories you have burned while running.
Running in the So-Called "Fat-Burning Zone"
What about the fat-burning-zone theory—i.e. work out long and slow to burn fat calories—that is so popular these days? This theory posits that when we run at a nice slow pace for a long time we tend to burn fat as our primary fuel source.
While running at low intensity does tend to draw more from fatty acids than from carbohydrates, the reality is that whether we burn fats from long, slow running or glycogen from shorter, high-intensity sessions, when it comes to losing weight, our body ultimately only cares about how many calories we have burned in a workout, not what fuel we burned.
Some research shows we may be better off exercising at a higher intensity for a shorter period of time, rather than exercising at a lower intensity for a longer period of time, because we will burn more calories in that scenario. Vigorous exercise also has another health benefit, according to some studies—it tends to preferentially draw fat from the abdominal area once glycogen stores start to deplete.
The Running "After-Burn"
What about the theory that our resting metabolism is revved up after running and that we burn as many calories after we run as we do during the training effort? Well-researched studies show that the "post-running calorie burn" is minimal.
Here is an example: Jogging at 12-minutes per mile for 30 minutes causes resting metabolic rate to stay elevated for 20 to 30 minutes, and only burns 12 additional calories post-run. When running intensity is increased to 75 percent of aerobic capacity for 35 to 45 minutes, we burn an extra 15 to 30 calories. Hardly earth-shaking figures when you consider that we need to burn 3500 calories to lose one pound of fat.
What about really long runs? Studies on extended running for 80 minutes or longer also found a very modest after-running calorie burn. Weighing these not-so-impressive after-run burns against the calories in one Hershey's kiss (25 calories) is a great reality check.

At the ongoing Computex Taipei trade-show, Nvidia Corp. finally showcased devices powered by its Tegra system-on-chip (SoC). The devices shown were from contract manufacturers and their demonstration may mean that branded suppliers are at least looking forward Tegra-powered netbooks, tablet PCs or mobile Internet devices (MIDs).
"The mobile computing revolution has arrived. These new Tegra-based products combine excellent Internet and media capabilities, always-on operation, and wireless connectivity for the un-tethered Internet experience consumers have been craving," stated Michael Rayfield, general manager of mobile business at Nvidia.
At Computex Taipei 2009 Nvidia demonstrated the following devices:
Neither of the demonstrated devices will ever be available on the market "as is", however, large vendors, such as Acer, Dell, Hewlett Packard, or well-known local suppliers or telecom companies may order Nvidia Tegra-based products from the aforementioned contract makers. In fact, according to Nvidia, there are over twenty Tegra-based projects in the development currently.
América Móvil, the world's third largest mobile operator with networks all across Latin America, expressed interest in Nvidia Tegra-based devices.
"Devices based on Nvidia Tegra will allow us to offer a mobile Internet device that delivers an amazing level of functionality at minimal cost or even free through subsidies. The combination of a Tegra-based MID and our high-speed national coverage will allow millions of people to access the Internet and have an unprecedented experience," said Antonio Domit, executive technology advisor to América Móvil, Grupo Carso, and Inbursa.
Nvidia Tegra 600-series SoCs features ARM11 central processing unit core, GeForce graphics core with programmable pixel shader and programmable vertex shader support, build-in low-power DDR memory controller, NAND flash memory controller, high-definition video processor that supports MPEG 4, H.264, VC-1/WMV9 decoding, H.264 and MPEG4 encoding and features some other capabilities. Besides, Tegra 600 and Tegra 650 support two displays, 12MPixel camera sensor, USB, Parallel ATA a variety of display outputs, including HDMI, as well as other necessary interfaces.
Nvidia Tegra line of SoCs for handsets and mobile Internet devices (MIDs) was announced in early June, 2008. The product family was not exactly a success for Nvidia: despite of the fact that the company expected handset makers to start adopting Tegra by the end of 2008, netbooks powered by Tegra will be out only in the second half of 2009. The destiny of Tegra-based smartphones is unclear.

Florida's constitution clearly provides that state revenues cannot directly or indirectly support religious institutions. Yet state legislators forged ahead, enacting not one but three voucher programs that divert millions of dollars each year to private, religious schools. Following the passage of the Opportunity Scholarship program, People for the American Way Foundation and other education organizations filed a lawsuit in state court contending that the voucher program violates the state constitution. In August 2002, State Circuit Court Judge Kevin Davey agreed,5 but as this decision is currently being appealed by the state, public taxpayers dollars continue to fund the state's private and religious schools.
When it comes to subsidizing private and religious schools with public funds, Florida leads the nation. The state has three voucher and tuition tax credit programs enrolling more than 25,000 students and costing public taxpayers millions of dollars each year (see Table A).
These millions are spent without any significant oversight and without any substantive evaluation to determine whether such programs are truly effective. In fact, since Florida private schools aren't strictly evaluated like public schools, once a student uses a voucher to attend a private school, he or she bypasses the state's system of accountability altogether.
|Table A: Florida's Voucher and Tuition Tax Credit Programs
|Opportunity Scholarships—enable students to transfer out of poorly performing public schools to private and religious schools.
|An Opportunity Scholarship voucher can be worth up to $5,900;7 costs for the program are not available.
|Opportunity scholarships were available to about 13,700 students in 2003, but only 660 actually opted for the voucher.
|McKay Vouchers —enable students with disabilities to attend private and religious schools.
|The average McKay voucher costs more than $5,500; the program has cost an estimated $86 million since 2000.8
|Approximately 400,000 students are eligible for McKay vouchers. In 2003, an estimated 12,200 received disability vouchers.
|Corporate Tuition Tax Credits —provide students with tuition scholarships to attend private and religious schools.
|The average scholarship costs $3,500; by this year, the program will cost an estimated $138 million. 9
|Nearly 3 million students are eligible for corporate tuition tax credit vouchers. In 2003, 12,339 such vouchers were issued.
Florida's voucher programs grew out of the influential lobbying of pro-voucher Republicans and advocacy groups. The McKay voucher program was the creation of Florida's former senate president, John McKay.10 Opportunity Scholarships were created by Jeb Bush under his "A+ Plan" for educational accountability.11 And a Tampa businessman, John Kirtley, heavily influenced the corporate tuition tax credit legislation by reportedly donating $100,000 to the Republican Party.12
The state's voucher and tuition tax credit legislation were drafted to include only minimal state oversight and inadequate enforcement. As a result, officials at both the state and district level seem ill equipped to handle the myriad of financial and academic accountability problems that have emerged through the state's voucher implementation efforts.
Recent newspaper articles show that some Florida private schools participating in the voucher and tuition tax credit program have been operating outside the parameters of the state law. Some schools have operated in conditions detrimental to the health and safety of their students. Other schools have provided students with a dubious quality of education, non-certified or unqualified teachers, and inadequate services. Scholarship organizations responsible for providing students with tuition vouchers have been accused of financial mismanagement, including the neglectful management of millions of public taxpayer dollars, providing vouchers to phantom students, funding homeschools, and funneling money to a school with alleged ties to terrorists.
Due to the myriad fiscal and programmatic problems with vouchers, there are five separate investigations being conducted of the three voucher programs.13 The state's Office of Fiscal Integrity even launched a criminal investigation of FloridaChild, the largest scholarship funding organization.14 Among financial mismanagement and other irregularities, FloridaChild has been accused of illegally charging parents a $15 application processing fee, accepting millions of dollars in transfers from other voucher groups, and soliciting a two percent donation from the private schools that received vouchers.15 Despite claiming that the charges were misleading, FloridaChild recently exited from the scholarship funding business.16 Patrick Heffernan, the organization's director, rightly points out that his is not the only group with irregular practices.17 A private voucher school hailed as a model by John Kirtley (and funded by his Jacksonville-based scholarship organization, HEROES) is being investigated by the state Department of Education on charges that the school illegally forged parents' signatures on voucher checks.18
Even though evidence shows voucher programs are poor public policy, Florida state legislators have irresponsibly chosen to expand these programs without any indication that they effectively provide school children with a better quality education. U.S. Representative Jim Davis (D-Florida) explains: "Our state is as far out there as any state in the country in what I believe is a reckless experiment. You're going to be hearing a lot more about Florida. The facts speak for themselves." Similarly, a senior official in Governor Bush's Department of Education privately stated that the state's voucher programs are "nationally embarrassing…We cannot even appear to be on top of things."19
Representative Davis' words were prophetic. Vociferous criticism leveled at Florida's voucher programs by the state media and local education organizations prompted Florida's Senate President Jim King (R-Jacksonville) to demand greater oversight and accountability.20 In August 2003, Education Secretary Jim Horne adopted an accountability questionnaire that requires more reporting from the organizations that provide students with tuition vouchers.21 Horne also introduced draft legislation to further reform the voucher programs in October 2003.22 However, this increased oversight is largely cosmetic and does not reach the level of accountability demanded of public schools.
Continued criticism of the voucher programs and of Horne's accountability plan prompted the state's Department of Financial Services to step in and conduct an audit of the three voucher programs.23 The agency is led by Tom Gallagher, an active proponent of Florida's voucher programs and one of the architects of school grading under the A+ Plan.24 In December 2003, the agency published two audit reports that offered a blistering criticism of Governor Jeb Bush's voucher programs and of the Department of Education's inept leadership. Gallagher, the state's chief financial officer, states: "Overall, the Department of Education's failure to assign leadership to this program, combined with the absence of active participation in program management, has created a lack of accountability…." Gallagher goes on to explain that lack of critical controls, failure to adopt programmatic rules and procedures, and high management turnover has lead to instability, abuse and potential criminal activity within the voucher programs.25 (See Table B for details on the lack of accountability within Florida's voucher programs.)
In January 2004, an investigation by Gallagher even lead to the filing of a criminal charge and an arrest. James Isenhour, the operator of Silver Archer Foundation, a scholarship funding group, was charged with stealing more than $268,000 in voucher money. The money was used to pay Isenhour's other companies, his bankruptcy lawyers, and himself.26 (See Appendix A for details on other investigations.)
|Table B: Accountability Checklist for Florida's Three Voucher Programs
|Accountability Provisions
|Legislated or Implemented
|DOE has rules in place to govern vouchers
|DOE has clear audit standards for groups getting tax money
|DOE has a program management plan to make sure vouchers comply with state law
|DOE has written procedures for legal compliance
|DOE checks to make sure private schools meet requirements of law
|DOE checks to make sure students meet eligibility criteria and are actually attending school
|DOE makes sure voucher checks are not fraudulently cashed
|DOE has agreements with private organizations empowered to spend millions on vouchers
Source: "Editorial: Voucher Oversight," St. Petersburg Times, December 14, 2003.
Gallagher's criticisms are echoed by other elected officials and the media. House Democratic Leader Doug Wiles explains that the "Department of Education should be embarrassed. [The] audit shows a willful lack of accountability and a complete disregard for the tax dollars of the hard working people we represent. Clearly, the audit results demonstrate a systematic effort to cover up massive problems with the school choice program."27 An editorial in the St. Petersburg Times asks if "anyone [is] minding the voucher store," charging that the voucher programs show "an abdication of responsibility that is breathtaking in its sweep. In four quick years, Florida has created three different voucher programs that now serve 24,000 students at a cost of roughly $135-million. Yet DOE, until just two months ago, couldn't even determine which students received the money and whether some of them were getting more than one check…."28
Critics contend that the accountability measures instituted by Education Secretary Jim Horne are merely superficial rather than a rigorous attempt to inject the state's voucher with more oversight. The state recently suspended voucher payments from 100 private schools that service 1,700 students through either McKay or tuition tax credit vouchers. The funding suspension was due to non-compliance issues and other legal problems.29 But according to a Palm Beach Post editorial, the Department of Education was unable to release an accurate list of the affected private schools because the very same schools allege that the Department's information is incorrect.30 Given that the Department does not have accurate records on private voucher schools or scholarship funding organizations, it is unclear how this data will be verified.
But despite the massive fiscal and accountability problems associated with Florida's voucher programs, significant changes to these programs do not seem to be in the cards. Although many in Florida's Senate appear to be committed to reforming the voucher program, observers anticipate that the House will, in all likelihood, pass only softer changes to the legislation such as preventing scholarship organizations from being operated by people with recent bankruptcies or criminal records.31
Without adequate reform, the state's voucher programs will continue to operate much as they have to date—without meaningful state oversight and under no obligation to ensure that state money is spent on quality educational programs.

To all Poomsae National team members for the past World Championships,
As you all know USAT has been going through some major changes in the last few months. With the appointment of a new interim CEO, the election of the new Board of Directors and the appointment of a new National Team Coach, there are certainly many changes going on with our NGB. Along with all these changes USAT has also taken account that Poomsae is a major asset to the organization and the athletes that have dedicated themselves to this discipline of our sport have become a valuable resource for them. The Athletes Advisory Council, which has traditionally been comprised of only sparring discipline athletes, is now also looking to expand their representation to include Poomsae athletes.
At this time the AAC is calling for an election of two Poomsae athletes to join the council. Unfortunately, the process of having this happen is on an extremely tight time schedule. The final election must be completed by Monday, April 1, in order for the Poomsae representatives to be involved in the selection of the AAC representatives to the USAT Board of Directors. Lynda Laurin, the current USOC Athlete representative, has been given the task of facilitating this election and has reached out to us for our cooperation in getting this important assignment done. Because Poomsae is a relatively new discipline for Taekwondo on a World level, the criteria for being eligible to run for this position and vote in the election will be based on participation at the World Poomsae Championships. Any athlete who is 18 years or older and has competed at any WTF World Poomsae Championship since 2006 is eligible to submit their name as a candidate for the AAC Poomsae position. Please notify Lynda Laurin at firstname.lastname@example.com of your intent to run for the position. This needs to be done immediately so that she can have a ballot sent to all eligible voters and receive them back by Sunday, March 31.
I understand that this is very short notice for an election of our representatives, but some circumstances just cannot be avoided. The main issue here is that we have an opportunity to have representation on the AAC and can help to bring more awareness to the sport we have all dedicated ourselves to. Please take the time to be involved with the next step in getting Poomsae the recognition and representation in our NGB that we have all been working toward. This is an opportunity to move forward with USAT as it begins to restructure itself into a better NGB to serve Taekwondo in the U.S.
Thank you for being a part of this process,
David J. Turgeon

Silver Creek moves toward budget
SILVER CREEK – The Silver Creek Board of Education is moving closer and closer to having a complete budget picture. At its meeting Wednesday three more pieces of the puzzle came together when the board heard presentations on the transportation, buildings and grounds and technology budgets.
Transportation Supervisor Kari Turner presented on the transportation budget, which included several small budget decreases as well as a large decrease from not replacing a minivan. The overall transportation budget equated to a $35,232 proposed decrease from 2012-13.
Buildings and Grounds Supervisor Mike Daniels presented next. His proposed budget was mostly unchanged due to many required inspection fees and uncontrollable costs like utilities. He said the budget did have some decreases where services could be consolidated to save money. The overall decrease for the buildings and grounds budget was $935 from the 2012-13 budget.
The final budget presentation of the day was given by Elementary School Principal and Technology Coordinator Scott Rudnicki and Mike Kempster from the instruction and technology department.
"The theme of this year's technology budget is 'do more with less,' or streamline services," Rudnicki said.
He explained several programs with duplicate functions were eliminated such as using Microsoft Outlook, which the district has a license for, instead of paying extra for LOTUS Notes. He also explained because of APPR there are expenditures not present in the 2012-13 budget for assessment programs. In the end the technology budget showed a decrease of $21,000 from the 2012-13 year.
Superintendent Daniel Ljiljanich said by the next board meeting on Feb. 13 the board should have a better idea of the percentage of expenditures and what effect it will have on taxes.
He also pointed out although the state budget was presented with a 3 percent increase in regular state aid for schools, it is unclear how the money will be distributed and according to the state education department website the increase for Silver Creek School District will only be 1.27 percent.
He said the district is also looking into a $58,916 drop in state building aid.
There will be a public forum on the budget Feb. 7 at 7 p.m. The next meeting will be Feb. 13 at 7 p.m. with a workshop at 6 p.m. on budget expenditures.

Yet, another Working with Teavana horror story. I only worked there for a bout 8 days but, I saw more then enough to be utterly disgusted by their management. Okay. So I've had worse employer experiences and it wasn't all bad. I did learn about a tea pots and did have some genuinely fond moments of being there. I also have another unrelated job and Teavana was a seasonal part time job. So it wasn't like I truly needed that job but, it was nice to have and considering that my city is at an all time low for employment. I felt happy to be accepted by them.
I will also say that while I am nowhere near a saint and I can't say that my experience is without bias or completely accurate but, I will post it and answer your questions objectively as possible. Lastly, It was at least partially my fault for getting fired and I don't have quite enough evidence/money/time/desire to sue them or pursue them for anything more then what they owe me.
So I guess I'll start from the beginning; I walked into the Teavana store and found myself teaching the manager about teas. I bought some as well. I mentioned that I need a part time job.
I was thrilled when I was accepted for an interview.
I was told to come back to the store and have my paper work filled out.
I arrived early so as to ensure that I got the paper work done. I even brought my own pen. When I got there though the manager had just left for a doctors appointment. She was pregnant or something. They gave me a free cup of tea. I got the Copper Knot Hongcha. They also gave me the training manual. I got so much of it done too. I still have the book. I only have like one or two chapters left in it.
The sales tactics were quite practical if not insidious. The whole "Top-Down Selling" where you start the customers off with the most expensive crap first and then inch your way to ensure you get their money. Don't get me wrong, it is a business after all and they need to make money to survive but, if they were honestly a good company they wouldn't need to be THAT pushy would they? Wouldn't great merchandise sell it self? I always thought. They did have a "script" to follow and I was told that I could add my own personality to it. I just had to learn that script I practiced their selling points everyday. More on that later.
My first day of the job. Went pretty successfully. I talked a couple who were only looking to spend around $40 into buying well over $400 I sold them an entire cast iron set with all those fancy little accessories.
The husband said "All I wanted was two ounces of green tea with a spoon and now we have $400 worth of stuff" The wife didn't seem to mind. She was happy. At first I honestly felt like I had educated her on the world of tea. My team mates were happy for me. It felt like a promising start. I completely forgot to take my lunch break and any break for that matter. They forgot to remind me. I didn't mind because we were busy and I was excited to be there. The clean up process was long. Our sink water was foggy. Our Fetco's were never cleaned properly. Not enough to make you sick but, enough to demand lots of room for improvement.
I didn't want to stand around. I was happy to work and learn the process of cleaning. It took a long time to clean that small place. It seemed like I spent more time cleaning then anything else.
That was day one.
I will continue posting when I have more time. I will answer any questions and I promise to finish my story for you good folks out there.

The Cuesta Library Web Site is your gateway to accessing Library and online resources. Below are some frequently asked questions about the library and various resources. If these do not answer your question(s) please feel free to ask someone in the library.
FINDING PERIODICALS (Journal and Magazine Articles) and Working with Online Databases
ONLINE DATABASES - to see a complete list of databases and their contents, choose the Databases icon above or go to http://library.cuesta.edu/database.htm.
The PHL alphabetically lists all the journals and magazines available at the Cuesta Library, whether in print or on microform. There is a subject index as well. However, it does not include all the journals available electronically in EBSCOhost or SIRS. Check these databases for full text availability of other titles, or ask the librarian on duty at the Reference desk for assistance. Access the PHL from the Library Home Page under Find an Article. Choose Periodical Holdings List or go directly to http://library.cuesta.edu/phl.htm.
2. Where are the periodicals located?
Back issues for periodicals at the San Luis campus library are located at the east wall, directly opposite from where you enter the Library.
3. Why can't I check out a magazine or journal?
Magazines are fragile, and we only have one copy of each issue. You can copy the pages you need on photocopiers in the library. Copies are ten cents per page.
4. What subjects do the databases cover?
If you go to http://library.cuesta.edu/database.htm, there is a list of every database we have at Cuesta... EBSCOhost is the largest, most general-use database. SIRS is good for social issues like euthanasia or capital punishment. ProQuest National Newspaper Index (NNI is helpful for national or international topics, since it includes the full text of 5 major newspapers. NewsBank indexes the SLO Tribune, which makes it valuable when researching local issues.
5. How can I tell which journals are available in a database?
In EBSCOHost, when you choose your database there is a titles list. In SIRS, hold the mouse on "Educators' Resources" at the top of the search page, then click on "more". At the bottom of the page, under "Library Support" there is a Directory of Publications..
6. What are "peer-reviewed" articles?
They are articles that have been read by other specialists in the same field. The term is used to indicate that before the articles were published in the journal, they were submitted to a panel of experts. In the eyes of the experts, the information meets the panel's standards of scholarship.
7. How can I find "peer-reviewed" articles?
EBSCOhost allows you to click on a "Peer Reviewed" only option when searching. However, if you are not sure if an article is from a peer-reviewed source you can ask the librarian on duty at the Reference desk, or look at the "Magazine vs. Journal" chart at http://library.cuesta.edu/workbook/mag_jou.htm
8. How do I cite articles from online databases?
That information is found in the MLA Handbook (Reference LB 2369 .G53 2009) and the Publication Manual of the APA (Reference BF 76.7 .P83 2001), available in the Reference book area. You can get handouts for MLA style at the Reference Desk, or you can print or refer to copies of the MLA handouts located at http://library.cuesta.org/workbook/index.htm
9. How do I access library databases at home?
The best way to access the library's databases from remote locations is from the library channel in myCuesta. Go to myCuesta at http://my.cuesta.eduand login then look for the library channel on the Resources tab. For faculty the library channel is on the Faculty tab.
If you are off campus and try to access one of the databases directly from the library's web site you will be redirected to the myCuesta login page. Again, after logging into myCuesta you can access the library's databases from the library channel.
10. Having difficulty accessing a database?
There are several possible causes for this problem. The most probable cause is that your computer or web browser has a popup blocker/killer installed. This could be a setting in your web browser or a separate piece of software, designed to get rid of all the ads that pop up in new windows when you try to connect to a web site.
If you have a popup blocker/killer enabled, you will be unable to connect to any of the library databases. However, you can either temporarily disable the popup blocker/killer, or with many of them you can specify that you want popups allowed from the library web site only (cuesta.edu/library).
A couple other things you might try include:
How are the books stacks arranged?
They are arranged in Library of Congress classification order, from A to Z. You will find the entire Library of Congress number for a book in the eLibrary online catalog. Reference books, which are books that are for Library use only, are in a separate Reference area near the front of the Library on the low shelves. eLibrary will specify a book's location as Reference, Bookstacks, or Reserve.
1. How do I find a book in the Cuesta library?
Use Cuesta's online catalog, eLibrary.
2. How do I access the Library catalog (eLibrary) from home?
You can access the library catalog from any computer with an Internet connection by going to the library webpage at cuesta.edu/library, then clicking on eLibrary under Find a Book.
3. How do I put a checked-out item on hold?
Find the book in Cuesta's online catalog (eLibrary). When viewing the item's record, click the "request" button on eLibrary's top navigation bar, then click the "place holds" link. Enter your library card number as your User ID or your student (Banner) ID as your Alt ID. The PIN is the last 4 Banner digits. Select the pickup location you prefer. Then click "place hold." Or come to the Circulation Desk and ask a staff member to put it on hold for you. We will telephone you as soon as the item is available.
4. How can I get a book sent from one Cuesta campus to the other?
Find the book in Cuesta's online catalog (eLibrary). When viewing the item's record, click the "request" button on eLibrary's top navigation bar, then click the "place holds" link. Enter your library card number as your User ID or your student (Banner) ID as your Alt ID, with the last 4 Banner digits as the PIN, and select the pickup location you prefer. Then click "place hold." Or go to the Circulation Desk and request that the book be sent from the other campus. There is a 24-hour turnaround time on intercampus requests.
5. How can I get a book that is not available at Cuesta? Is Interlibrary Loan available?
First, ask a librarian to help you find out if the material might be available. If not, you can try other local libraries, such as Kennedy Library at Cal Poly or the SLO public library. Cuesta students are allowed to check out books from the Cal Poly library, but need to have their current student ID or a copy of their current registration. Any resident of this county can use the public library system if they have a free public library card. Both Cal Poly and the public library system's online catalogs can be found by going to the Cuesta Library homepage under Find a Book. Choose Other Library Catalogs. If they don't have what you need, you can try an Interlibrary Loan.
6. Where are Reserve books located?
The reserve materials at both campuses are located behind the Circulation Desks, and may be checked out using your Cuesta College library card or Cuesta College student body card.
7. What are eBooks? Are eBooks available to non-students?
eBooks are full text print books that you access and read online. In eLibrary, they appear on your results list with ONLINE as the call number, and a location (on the right side of the list of results page) of Internet. See the eBooks page for information on how to access the eBooks from on or off campus.
8. How do I find eBooks?
eBooks can be located through Cuesta's online catalog eLibrary and have call number ONLINE and the location "Internet." See the eBooks page for information on how to access the eBooks from on or off campus.
9. Do I need any special software to view eBooks?
eBooks are electronic books -- full text versions of printed books saved as Adobe Acrobat .pdf files. They can be read on any computer with Internet access. You will need an Adobe Acrobat PDF viewer to read them. This software might be already installed on your computer, or it is available for free from Adobe Acrobat. More information about our NetLibrary eBooks collection is available on the vendor's site (http://www.netlibrary.com/Help/Default.aspx?Page=
10 How do I access eBooks from off campus?
See the eBooks page for information on how to access the eBooks from on or off campus.
11. Can I print eBooks?
You can print some pages of some eBooks. Look for the print icon in the PDF file. eBooks are subject to copyright and use restrictions. You will see a warning message from NetLibrary if you try to print more pages than is allowed.
1. What library resources are available to Columbia College or Univ. of La Verne students and faculty?
Columbia College provides currently enrolled Columbia students with access to a broad range of databases through their Stafford Library web site (http://www.ccis.edu/offices/library/) In order to use Columbia subscription resources, you must obtain password from your instructor or campus office. The Stafford Library also provides an electronic reference service (https://www.ccis.edu/offices/library/
AskALibrarian.asp) for their students.
The University of La Verne provides extensive support to distance students through their Wilson Library (http://www.ulv.edu/library/). To contact a librarian, see the Ask a Librarian page: (http://www.ulv.edu/library/ask.htm).
2. Are there computers with Internet and Word?
At the San Luis Obispo campus, the Library and High Tech Computer Lab computers have both. The North County campus library has both on all their computers.
3. How do I print a document?
Go to the menu bar at the top of the document, click on File, then Print.
At the San Luis campus library: find the "number" of your computer on the CPU, and head for the GoPrint station. Press the number to get your job.
At the North County campus library: When you click on the Print dialog box, your computer sends the print request to a printer behind the Circulation Desk. Ask the person behind the desk for the material you have printed.
Special instructions for EBSCOHost: Click on the Print icon right below the green menu bar, click on Print in the middle of the page, then click on OK when the Print dialog box appears.
Special instructions for PDF full text files: PDF files are actually created by a program within a program. Click on the printer icon inside the web browser window, not the print icon or file-print on the menu bar.
If you only want to print part of the article: When the Print box appears, select Pages from __ to __ instead of All. Put the first page number in "from", the last page number in "to".
Printing on both campuses costs ten cents per page. If you choose, you may send articles from Ebscohost, SIRS, ProQuest, Newsbank, and results from eLibrary searches to an email address for printing later.
4. Are there any group study rooms?
Yes, along the walls in the San Luis Obispo campus library, and also at the North County library.
5. Are there copy machines available for library users?
Yes, there are four photocopiers in the room right inside the entrance to the San Luis Obispo campus library, and one at the North County library. Copying on both campuses costs ten cents per page.

If you follow the misguided notion rookies are over-hyped and useless in Fantasy leagues, you must not have won your league last year. We saw what they can do for owners in 2005 as call-ups Ryan Howard, Robinson Cano, Felix Hernandez, Zach Duke, Dan Johnson and Jeff Francoeur carried teams with veteran-like production in the second half.
Jeremy Hermida is looking to follow Miguel Cabrera's steps from Double-A to big-league stardom. (Getty Images)
Here's a scary thought: The 2006 rookie class is even better. In fact, it's the best crop since the Albert Pujols, Ichiro Suzuki, Adam Dunn and Roy Oswalt group in 2001.
Our top 10 rookies must be gobbled up by the time things wrap up in all mixed leagues on Draft Day. We compare those special phenoms with a Fantasy player they could develop into long term. Players ranked 11 through 20 are possible starters and sleeper Rookie of the Year candidates, while the final five are those who will be the biggest minor-league noise-makers and potential impact call-ups around the All-Star break.
Good luck with your keeper-league bargain hunting.
1 OF Delmon Young, 20, Devil Rays
Think: A right-handed Ken Griffey Jr.
2005 stats: Triple-A (52 games) -- .285 average, six homers, 28 RBI, 33 runs, seven steals (.447 slugging percentage, .303 on-base percentage) / Double-A (84) -- .336-20-71-59-25 (.582-.386)
Get your 2006 Owners Manual and Draft Guide!
His breakthrough 2005 (.315-26-99-92-32 combined in 558 minor-league at-bats) puts the 20-year-old on the cusp of big-league stardom. Assuming he can win the right-fielder's job this spring, Young has to be considered the favorite for AL Rookie of the Year honors. If the Devil Rays decide Aubrey Huff can play first base, they could slot Jonny Gomes at DH and play a young studly outfield of Carl Crawford in left, Rocco Baldelli in center (eventually) and Young in right. The new regime in Tampa Bay says it won't unnecessarily hold him back in order to slow his arbitration clock. All he needs is an opportunity.
2 OF Jeremy Hermida, 22, Marlins
Think: Shawn Green
2005 stats: Majors (23) -- .293-4-11-9-2 (.634-.383) / Double-A (118) -- .293-18-63-77-23 (.518-.457)
If you were one who got the second-half boost by Francoeur in 2005, you'll want to hone in on this guy. Hermida grades a little better than his Braves counterpart across the board, and when you consider his ability to get on base far more consistently through walks, you have a rock-solid NL Rookie of the Year favorite. He'll head to spring as the Marlins right fielder, a status he should keep until he threatens to bust the seams of the tight purse in Florida.
3 1B Prince Fielder, 21, Brewers
Think: Ryan Howard
2005 stats: Majors (39) -- .288-2-10-2-0 (.458-.306) / Triple-A (103) -- .291-28-86-68-8 (.569-.388)
The Brewers wouldn't have shipped a solid veteran like Lyle Overbay out of town this winter if they weren't confident Fielder is big-league ready. The son of Cecil, who was a former 50-homer slugger himself, handled the highest levels of the minors faster than Howard, the reigning NL ROY. Although Fielder won't out-produce his Philly counterpart in his first year, he's a solid source of power in any Fantasy league.
4 RHP Matt Cain, 21, Giants
Think: Kerry Wood
2005 stats: Majors -- 2-1 with a 2.33 ERA, 24 hits allowed, 19 walks and 30 strikeouts in 46 innings / Triple-A -- 10-5, 4.39, 118 hits, 73 walks and 176 Ks in 146 innings
Cain can sustain mid-90s heat and even kick it up close to triple digits on occasion. All he needs now is control and experience. Pitching is more art than skill, so Cain could struggle at times in his first full season, but the Triple-A strikeout leader has to be considered the top rookie pitcher in baseball (the rookie eligibility of the Mariners' Felix Hernandez expired last season). Only Hernandez was younger in the big leagues last season. After Cain's outstanding results in his September call-up, the Giants aren't hesitating to slot him in their rotation. He should better the rookie numbers of Scott Kazmir from 2005 (10 wins, 3.77 ERA and 174 strikeouts).
5 LHP Francisco Liriano, 22, Twins
Think: Johan Santana
2005 stats: Majors -- 1-2, 5.70, 33 hits, seven walks and 33 Ks in 23 2/3 innings / Triple-A -- 9-2, 1.78, 56 hits, 24 walks and 112 Ks in 91 innings / Double-A -- 3-5, 3.64, 70 hits, 26 walks and 92 Ks in 76 2/3 innings
Forget the uneven results in his cup of coffee in '05, the minor league's strikeout leader is a big-time talent. The Twins have given him the No. 5 starter's job to lose and we see a young Santana in the making. Imagine facing the apprentice and then emperor on back-to-back days this season. Forget it. The best part about Liriano -- and the reason we can compare him to Fantasy's No. 1 pitcher -- is his control. He walked just 50 hitters in almost 167 minor-league innings. Those numbers are even better than Santana's were at a similar stage. Like many Dominicans who pitch year round in winter ball, Liriano's arm is ready for the 162-game haul. Although he might not post big win totals, his strikeout potential makes him a top-notch sleeper.
6 RHP Anthony Reyes, 24, Cardinals
Think: Mark Prior
2005 stats: Majors -- 1-1. 2.70, six hits, four walks, 12 Ks in 13 innings / Triple-A -- 7-6, 3.64, 105 hits, 34 walks, 136 Ks in 129 innings
While he isn't as top shelf of a talent as Prior, a fellow USC Trojan, Reyes has been given a rotation spot in one of the best situations in baseball. Name a Cardinals starter who hasn't won at least 13 games in each of the past two seasons? You won't find one. That bodes well for Reyes' Fantasy prospects, even if he is raw, and says a lot about what his organization thinks of him. The Cards won't be quite as good as they have been, but Reyes still should post 12-plus wins with a solid ERA, WHIP and close to a strikeout per inning. That's not something we say about a rookie pitcher very often, even if it's the third time you heard it in this list. Reyes doesn't boast the lightning stuff of the two arms ranked above him, but he has the better supporting cast.
7 2B Ian Kinsler, 23, Rangers
Think: A right-handed Chase Utley
2005 stats: Triple-A (131) -- .274-23-94-102-19 (.464-.348)
It says a lot about what your organization thinks of you if it trades a potential 30-30 second baseman in Alfonso Soriano to clear the position. Such is the case with Kinsler, who has a slim Utley-like build with the rare middle-infielder pop to go with it. Kinsler has progressed rapidly through the system and gets his shot years before Utley. It could take longer for Kinsler to hit his full stride, but we see one of the more potent Fantasy 2Bs down the road. He's not quite in the Rickie Weeks class of speed and power, but take a flier on Kinsler late in mixed leagues.
8 1B Conor Jackson, 23, Diamondbacks
Think: A right-handed Lyle Overbay
2005 stats: Majors (40) -- .200-2-8-8-0 (.306-.303) / Triple-A (93) -- .354-8-73-66-3 (.553-.457)
Veteran Tony Clark went .303-30-87 with a .636 slugging percentage last season, but that's not good enough to start at first in Arizona, where they're handing the job to Jackson this spring. Clark will be his tutor. That's a staggering thought that speaks volumes of Jackson's upside. His minor-league numbers are eerily similar to Overbay's at this point, but we like the OPS hog Jackson to develop more power as a rare slugger who won't strike out very often. (He posted better than a 1-2 strikeout-to-walk ratio (32-69) in Triple-A). Clark's presence will be a drain on Jackson's value on Draft Day -- as well as during the season if the prospect starts slow -- but that only makes him even more of an attainable sleeper.
9 C Jeff Mathis, 22, L.A. Angels of Anaheim
Think: A right-handed Jason Varitek
2005 stats: Majors (5) -- .333-0-0-1-0 (.333-.333) / Triple-A (112) -- .276-21-73-78-4
Mathis rebounded from a disappointing 2004 campaign (.227-14-55-57-2) to earn honors as the heir to Bengie Molina in Anaheim. It's rare a contender puts its pitching staff in the hands of a rookie catcher -- Joe Mauer being the most recent exception -- but Mathis has long been rated as a future All-Star backstop. His bat will be given time to develop, but it's promising enough in his first year to warrant a late-round flier in mixed leagues. We say Mathis outperforms the other young catchers -- the Pirates' second-year man Ryan Doumit included -- and puts the 2005 failures of J.D. Closser and Chris Snyder to shame.
10 3B Ryan Zimmerman, 21, Nationals
Think: A right-handed John Olerud
2005 stats: Majors (20) -- .397-0-6-6-0 (.569-.419) / Double-A (63) -- .326-9-32-40-1 (.528-.371) / Low Class A (4): .471-2-6-5-0 (1.059-.471)
A perfect example of how the economics of today's game puts the onus on draft and development. Zimmerman was the fourth overall pick in the June draft (Virginia) and made the quickest position-player rise to the big leagues since Olerud. Like so many of the prodigies ranked above him, a veteran was let go in the offseason (Vinny Castilla) to clear an everyday spot at third base. It's clear Zimmerman can become a .300 hitter; he handles the bat well to all fields, but it's uncertain how much power he'll develop. At 6-foot-3, 220 pounds, you would think he'll become a slugger, but he's more of a line-drive gap hitter at this extremely early stage. Assuming those doubles become homers, he might be more like the next Hank Blalock and not Joe Randa. Posting top-notch mixed-league Fantasy numbers in his first year will be tough after only 250 minor-league at-bats, especially in the pitcher's haven in D.C., but Zimmerman is a solid late-round flier.
Other rookies who can win jobs this spring:
11 RHP Justin Verlander, 23, Tigers
Think: Jake Peavy
2005 stats: Majors -- 0-2, 7.15, 15 hits, five walks, seven strikeouts in 11 1/3 innings / Double-A -- 2-0, 0.28, 11 hits, seven walks, 32 Ks in 32 2/3 innings / High Class A -- 9-2, 1.67, 70 hits, 19 walks and 104 Ks in 86 innings
A sore shoulder ended his 2005 early, but the Tigers are saying it was due to the workload and his "getting after it" in his first professional season. They're confident he can compete for the fifth-starter's job this spring. His minor-league numbers and talent are top notch, so there's no reason he can't win the job and surge to the front of this list. He was orginally listed at No. 25 here because it was believed they would start him off slow before slotting him in their rotation this summer. Just looking at those minor-league numbers makes you believe the possibilities are endless.
12 1B Mike Jacobs, 25, Marlins
Think: A left-handed Craig Wilson
2005 stats: Majors (30) -- .310-11-23-19-0 (.710-.375) / Double-A (117) -- .321-25-93-66-1 (.589-.376)
The oldest player thus far on this list had the biggest impact in Fantasy 2005, hitting 11 homers in just 100 at-bats. The two-time Mets minor-league player of the year rebounded nicely from shoulder woes that ruined his 2004. He has moved from catcher to first and was dealt to the Marlins in the offseason, where he should at minimum get all the at-bats at first base vs. right-handed pitching. The right-field porch in South Florida requires a homer longer than a 100-plus yard kickoff return, but Jacobs has a sweet swing that can generate power anywhere. All he needs is an opportunity, which he'll get. While we rank him as an NL-only rookie to target, he could be the highest riser on this list, becoming a potent mixed-league sleeper.
13 C Kenji Johjima, 29, Mariners
Think: Paul Lo Duca
2005 stats: Japan (116) -- .309-24-57-70-3 (.557-.381)
Johjima, a three-time 30-plus homer catcher in the Japan leagues (the stats equivalent of the Triple-A PCL), was signed this winter by the Mariners, who consider him more of a gap hitter in Seattle's pitcher's park. The success of Japanese position players is hit (Hideki Matsui, Ichiro Suzuki) and miss (Kaz Matsui), so Johjima should be considered a risk in mixed leagues on Draft Day. He'll be an everyday catcher with upside, however.
14 2B Josh Barfield, 22, Padres
Think: A young Bret Boone
2005 stats: Triple-A (137) -- .310-15-72-74-20 (.450-.370)
Another player with pedigree whose position was cleared this winter. Josh is the son of former 40-homer slugger Jesse Barfield and is Mark Loretta's heir apparent at second base in San Diego. You might think it's a tough park for a young Fantasy prospect, but right-handed power plays there (think: double-play 'mate Khalil Greene's 15 homers). Barfield will be less tempted to allow his swing get long -- as it had at times in the minors. He has been considered a bigger prospect than Robinson Cano, but Cano's 2005 numbers should be considered the higher end of Barfield's projections. Pick him up as an NL-only sleeper on Draft Day, but watch the notoriously streaky hitter in mixed leagues as a stopgap.
15 OF Jason Kubel, 23, Twins
Think: Mark Kotsay with more pop
2005 stats: DNP in 2005 after reconstructive knee surgery
Kubel is the wild card of the 2006 rookie class after missing all of last season to a knee injury suffered in an outfield collision during the 2004 Arizona Fall League. Before the injury, Kubel was slated to be the Twins' everyday right fielder with the potential to go .300-20-80 as a Kotsay-type with a higher ceiling. If he's healthy this spring, he's a must-have outfielder in AL-only leagues and a potential sleeper in mixed leagues.
The best of the rest:
16 OF Brian Anderson, 23, White Sox
Think: Poor man's Magglio Ordonez
2005 stats: Majors (13) -- .176-2-3-3-1 (.382-.176) / Triple-A (118) -- .295-16-57-71-4 (.469-.360) / Low A (51): .331-6-36-28-6 (.513-.383)
The Aaron Rowand trade cleared a spot for Anderson in the outfield, but his open opportunity is more exciting than his numbers at this point. Consider him a solid flier in AL-only leagues. The above comparison to Ordonez has to do with the similarity of their numbers at this stage of Anderson's career. His minor-league stats are eerily similar to the former White Sox player who developed into a slugger in the big leagues.
17 C Josh Willingham, 27, Marlins
Think: A left-handed Chris Shelton
2005 stats: Majors (16) -- .304-0-4-3-0 (.348-.407) / Triple-A (66) -- .324-19-54-56-5 (.676-.455) / High Class A (2) -- .222-0-1-1-0 (.333-.300)
Willingham has been an OPS monster in the minors, but the fact he's a 2B-turned-catcher has slowed his progress -- along with a broken arm last year. He will compete with Miguel Olivo to be the rebuilding Marlins' everyday catcher and his promising bat should trump his below-average defense. Consider him a viable No. 2 at the position late in mixed leagues.
18 SS Hanley Ramirez, 22, Marlins
Think: Wilson Betemit
2005 stats: Majors (2) -- .000-0-0-0-0 (.000-.000) / Double-A (122) -- .271-6-52-66-26 (.385-.335)
Ramirez, dealt to the Marlins is the offseason, is a better prospect in person than on paper, according to scouts. Much like the His speed-and-power potential didn't show up on the stats sheet in Double-A last season, but many expect him to blossom, a la Rickie Weeks a year ago. He will compete to start in Florida, so his potential and role make him an outstanding sleeper in NL-only and keeper leagues.
19 3B Andy Marte, 22, Indians
Think: Adrian Beltre
2005 stats: Majors (24) -- .140-0-4-3-0 (.211-.227) / Triple-A (109): .275-20-74-51-0 (.506-.372)
The Red Sox absolutely stole Marte from the Braves this winter in the Edgar Renteria deal, but had to trade him and Kelly Shoppach off to Cleveland. His right-handed power could come in handy, but it's unclear how he will get at-bats at this point. Track his battle for a spot this spring, because he would be a top-10 Fantasy rookie if he lands the starting job.
20 LHP Scott Olsen, 22, Marlins
Think: Jarrod Washburn
2005 stats: Majors -- 1-1, 2.84, 21 hits, 10 walks and 21 Ks in 20 1/3 innings / Double-A -- 6-4, 3.92, 75 hits, 27 walks and 94 Ks in 80 1/3 innings
The lefty proved effective in his four-start stint for a contender in 2005 and he'll compete for a spot with a slew of outstanding prospects in a revamped Marlins rotation this spring. We like his upside, but he'll be working for a sub-.500 club, so consider him more of an NL-only prospect.
The long-term keeper prospects:
21 SS Brandon Wood, 21, L.A. Angels
Think: Cal Ripken Jr.
2005 stats: Triple-A (4): .316-0-1-1-0 (.526-.316) / High Class A (130): .321-43-115-109-7 (.672-.383)
Wood's Ruthian assault on minor-league pitching continued in the Arizona Fall League as he set a record with 14 homers in 29 games. Mind you, that is a league where Pujols spent time before he went on to post the greatest Fantasy rookie season in history. Wood will need a trade of Orlando Cabrera and perhaps some at-bats in the high minors before he's called up. Once he is, he's a must-have in any Fantasy league.
22 SS Stephen Drew, 22, Diamondbacks
Think: A better Jhonny Peralta
2005 stats: Double-A (27) -- .218-4-13-11-2 (.386-.301) / High Class A (38) -- .389-10-39-33-1 (.738-.486)
Drew tore up the AFL, too, and isn't far from being a big-leaguer, but the D-Backs have veteran Craig Counsell to be his placeholder at shortstop this spring. We see Drew being a midseason call-up and a must-have in any Fantasy league at that point.
23 OF Carlos Quentin, 23, Diamondbacks
Think: Lance Berkman
2005 stats: Triple-A (136): .301-21-89-98-9 (.520-.422)
Fellow D-Backs prospect Jackson has more potential this season, but Quentin is the better prospect because of his 35-homer potential. Quentin is stuck behind veterans at this point, but move him into the top five among rookies if he slugs his way into an everyday job this spring.
24 3B Andy LaRoche, 22, Dodgers
Think: A right-handed Eric Chavez
2005 stats: Double-A (64) -- .273-9-43-41-2 (.445-.367) / High Class A (63) -- .333-21-51-54-6 (.651-.380)
Andy is the younger brother of the Braves' Adam LaRoche and son of former big-league pitcher Dave LaRoche. He has more power potential than Adam (25-30 homers annually), but will need time in the high minors before he assumes the 3B job in Los Angeles long term. He's a midseason call-up and a solid flier in any Fantasy league.
25 DH Billy Butler, 19, Royals
Think: Mark Teixeira
2005 stats: Double-A (29) -- .313-5-19-14-0 (.527-.353) / High Class A (92) -- .348-25-91-70-0 (.636-.419)
Butler might be the best pure slugging prospect in baseball, but he is very young and raw. The perennially rebuilding Royals will be patient with him, but a midseason call-up is very possible. He's a future Fantasy first-rounder.

Aside from RAM and BAND ON THE RUN, the 70's were pretty much a bad period for Paul, IMHO. The 80's, at least, had TUG OF WAR (a GREAT album), and what would become The Russian Album.
I really think Paul's BEST work has come post-Beatles Anthology. I think that experience did something for him. That, and the heartbreaking illness and eventual loss of Linda, seemed to produce the best from him as a writer. FLAMING PIE is a GREAT album. RUN, DEVIL RUN is amazing for what it is-- high energy rock covers with some originals thrown in. DRIVING RAIN wasn't bad, and then CHAOS & CREATION, to me, was brilliant. MEMORY ALMOST FULL was NEARLY as good as CHAOS. ELECTRIC ARGUMENTS has a LOT of excellent work on it. KISSES ON THE BOTTOM is a wonderful listen, and of the two originals on the album, "My Valentine" ranks among his finest compositions. It certainly stands well side by side with all those old standards.
So, I am really looking forward to NEW. I have a feeling we're in for a real treat.
Paul just gets better with age. Maybe his vocal ability is waning, but not his creativity.

The board is listening
An important issue will soon be discussed by the Iron Mountain Public Schools Board of Education and parental input is important.
As a middle school parent, I was invited via postcard to attend a meeting called to revisit the issue of creating "a school within a school" for the 7th and 8th grade students of the district.
The idea is not to have the students integrated into the high school population but to make a place for them on B Floor of the high school building, allowing them their own classrooms, bathroom facilities and lockers. Prior to this meeting, I thought it would be better for the students to continue to occupy the Central School Annex (above the elementary gym); however, after hearing the information presented and considering points raised by several parents, staff members, board members and administrators, I changed my mind.
There are many good reasons for backing this plan, chief among them is the need to reduce the number of times middle school students must travel back and forth from the Annex to the high school building for various classes.
All of this transitioning has resulted in lost instructional time, something our students cannot afford to lose.
This proposal would result in increased instructional time and increased student supervision. It would give the teachers who must teach both middle school and high school classes enough time, space and materials to do their job well and it gives our kids peace of mind to know they have all their necessary books and other supplies at hand. Administrators and counselors are available to handle possible discipline or health problems at all times, instead of having to split their time between buildings.
Many people at the parent meeting were excited about the positive outcomes this move would make possible and hoped the Board could make this happen for the 2013-14 academic year, however not all parents were able to attend the meeting.
Please become educated on this issue and communicate your opinion to members of the Iron Mountain Public Schools Board of Education, preferably before their next meeting on July 15. You can contact them personally, by phone or through e-mailing Superintendent Tom Jayne at email@example.com.
Your opinion matters and, be assured, the board is listening.

Topic: Deploying Intranet App on shared file server
Hi there, so I have an intranet app that I'd like to host on a windows 2003 server. I've tried putting instant rails on our shared network drive- "the g drive" - and starting the server from the machine I'm sitting on, but that's clearly not the way to go, as the app is then being run on the local computer's memory.
How would I run the program on the shared drive so that people could see the app using a browser navigating to some address?
I've tried googling, but couldn't come up with a solution.

Unsupported Browser Detected
The Lenovo Support website supports Microsoft Internet Explorer 10+, Mozilla Firefox 29+, Chrome 34+ and any other modern web browser.
Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) cannot retrieve the serial number from the LT2452p monitor. Using WMI to retrieve the serial number from the monitor results in a random number being returned.
|Affected configurations
The above symptom is associated with, but not limited to, the following systems:
The system is configured with:
Applies to:
|Additional Information
EDID Explanation:
Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) developed a standard for Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) which is transmitted to the PC system to detail the capabilities of the monitor using Plug and Play. The data includes manufacturer name, serial number, product type, timings, display size, luminance data, color information, and pixel mapping.
As very few monitors use a 4-digit serial number, the field defined in EDID is inadequate to store typical serial numbers, therefore, a workaround was developed which is used on most monitors shipping today. A secondary data field used for monitors requiring special timing data, required by a small number of monitors, was defined as an alternative location for the serial number. As most monitors use that location for serial number information, all EDID software looks at that location for the serial number including WMI.
LT2452p EDID:
The LT2452p monitor supports a 1920x1080 at 60Hz mode which is required to be stored in the secondary timing section of the EDID and, therefore, it is not available for storage of the 7-digit serial number.
Data recovered by standard EDID software is a portion of the timing information and not related to the serial number such as when using WMI.
The last four digits of the serial number are stored in the original serial number location in EDID, which are bytes 12 though 15 of the EDID data as defined by the specification. As an example, the first three characters of the serial number for LT2452p displays is "VNA" and if this is appended in front of the four digits found in the EDID data then the serial number of the LT2452p monitor can be determined.

An Exploratory Study of Procurement Strategies for Multi-Item RFQs in B2B Markets: Antecedents and Impact on Performance
This research explores procurement strategies for multi-item requests for quotation (RFQs) in business-to-business (B2B) markets using responses from 825 purchasing professionals. The study first establishes procurement strategies that differ based on their level of strategic emphasis, i.e., the importance that is placed on the pursuit of four strategic objectives. Underlying objectives, which are obtained via factor analysis, include the focus on price, security of supply, internal procurement efficiencies, and bundle building. Next, cluster analysis is used to derive prototypical strategic approaches. The three cluster groups that emerge possess the same relative ranking of the four objectives, but differ based on the intensity with which these objectives are pursued. The clusters are labelled as the three strategic groups of strategists, opportunists, and responders. The research then explores, using an industrial buyer behavior lens, the impact of environmental antecedents in determining a particular strategy. Environmental variables include purchase importance, market uncertainty, supply base availability, buyer bargaining power, item experience, and supply base experience. Finally, the study tests the impact of procurement strategy on the buyer's perceived performance, suggesting that strategists, placing more emphasis on the pursuit of strategic sourcing objectives, achieve better performance than opportunists and responders.

Our opinion: Let's keep the parade
A $600 police overtime bill is not a good reason to cancel Warren's Christmas Parade.
We were frankly surprised and disappointed that Warren Main Street decided to cancel this year's Christmas Parade, citing the city's fee for police overtime as a significant reason to cancel a procession that has entertained hundreds of children and adults for at least 40 years.
Recently in this space we pointed out the Warren Community's willingness to step up in times of need, when those needs are reasonable and made public.
If, in the span of a couple weeks, the community ponied up more than $2,000 to replace flags at Heritage Point; if, in the span of a few hours, a local family went from needing almost all of $2,200 to provide a prescribed piece of medical equipment for their seven-month-old to having more than the full amount provided by the generosity of people in the community; it seems to us that $600 is doable.
Has there been an appeal to the public for help? If there has been, it's been under the radar.
Until the announcement by Dan Ristau, the president of Warren Main Street, that the downtown Christmas Walk would not kick off with a parade bringing Santa Claus into town, there hadn't been a peep about the need for money.
However, we suspect the money is the excuse for a decision by Warren Main Street to eschew tradition and restructure an event that has been popular and well-attended for decades. We would submit that it was the parade that brought people out on a cold night; the living windows, street vendors and food gave them something for which to stay a while longer. The parade doesn't preclude the events that Mr. Ristau envisions.
At this point, we would ask Mr. Ristau to go back to his board – whoever they are, since the president has declined to reveal the names of members after several inquiries by this newspaper – and seek a reconsideration of the decision, make a public appeal for financial support, and don't try to fix something that's not broken.

With over 13 million made, the 1946-S Nickel is a very common coin. However, fully struck examples with full steps on the reverse are a different story. Those coins represent a small portion of the overall population and they are very popular with collectors. Currently, the 1946-S Nickel with Full Steps is slightly more common then the 1946 Philadelphia issue but much less common than the 1946-D. Fortunately, many of the certified examples are in high grade and are reasonably affordable. The best example certified by PCGS is a single MS67FS.
