Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (88 votes).
In short: Well OrganisedIn full: First time at this event and made a weekend of it. Paced with girl friend how nearly managed PB, great first timer course and PB potenial if it wasn't so hot. thank to all marshells and Mablethorpe folk.Date of review: October 12, 2011
In short: Great Organisation and marshall supportIn full: The 2 laps did my head in on a very hot testing day, did not enjoy passing the finish to do around again! 10/10 for friendliness, organisation, support from marshalls, water stations etc.Date of review: October 11, 2011
In short: Excellent race, well organised, worth the journeyIn full: Despite the hot weather provision had been made with plenty of water to drink and to cool down with. The marshals, locals and holiday makers were all very supportive. The facilities for runners were good as was the running top.We really enjoyed it and it was worth the 2 hour early morning drive!Date of review: October 9, 2011
In short: Great marshalling and organisation. Lots of thought for very hot runnersIn full: We had a heat wave on 2 October when it should have been nice and cool. the day before the race the organisers bought waterbutts that they set out in between the water stations so you could cover yourself in water to cool down. Some of the local kids were helping hand the water out in basins. The marshalls were brilliant even though they had to stand out in the heat with no shade for hours. They were really positive. My favourite group had little headbands with pink pom poms on the end. Unfortunately, I had to retire at mile 20 due to the heat and couldn't finish. Nevertheless, if it hadn't have been hot I could have achieved a PB. Its a flat course and not so many people that you are always having to overtake. some of the roads are quite narrow so you have to rely on motorists giving you consideration, but all the ones I came across did. Mu only dislike was that it felt quite lonely at times as you are miles out in the country with just your thoughts, but that is a personal thing and shouldn't be a people not to do it. I'll be back next year and, heat forbidding, I'll be looking to finish it. Date of review: October 8, 2011
In short: Excellent support from marshalls, public etc. Goody bag with banana, mars bar and sports drink a really nice touch. Very hot, but well worth it!Date of review: October 7, 2011
In short: Nice race, friendly atmosphere. Hoped for PB but 26 deg temp took its toll. Well marshalled. Good final 2 miles along promenade. Well worth doingDate of review: October 6, 2011
In short: very well orgainised and marshalledDate of review: October 6, 2011
In short: I'd recommend it to anyone - got to be one of the flattest courses out thereIn full: The only reason for not doing it again is that we rarely do the same marathon twice - otherwise we won't have time to do them all.We did it for a time, can't blame the heatwave on the organisers! Even in such extreme conditions there was plentiful water, full marks for that. Date of review: October 6, 2011
In short: Friendly, flat and fastIn full: Friendliest race I've run for a while, thanks to stewards (and Mablethorpe folks) for fantastic support on a ridiculously hot day. Brilliant to have loads of bottled water available, every marshal seemed to have some up their sleeve! As a bonus I scored a PB on the flat, fast course.Date of review: October 5, 2011
In short: Flat fast course, excellent organisation but at mercy of weather as exposedIn full: Brilliant organisation and marshalling, supportive and friendly. Good race HQ with changing and showers.Fast flat course, not sure why 1/2 marathon had to set off first but that was only major gripe.Hot day and seemed to be plenty of water on second lap think virtually every marshall had extra water in bottles so you could carry.Very exposed course so will always be at merch of weather.Pleasant route mixing quite country roads, paths and seafront - nice mix.Results texted to you within minutes.Great value race and well put on.Date of review: October 5, 2011

Skip to comments.US Ambassador Jones: 'Be Happy We Didn't Execute Pollard'
Posted on 05/21/2007 4:13:41 PM PDT by Nachum
(IsraelNN.com) Pollard supporters are enraged at US Ambassador to Israel Richard Jones for his remarks Monday morning, implying that Jonathan Pollard committed treason or sold US secrets to Israel.
Speaking at a conference at Bar Ilan University on Israeli-American relations, Jones said, "Pollard took money and sold out his country... The fact that he wasn't executed shows that he was treated mercifully."
"Malicious incitement against both Jonathan and Israel" is how an infuriated Esther Pollard, Jonathan's wife, described it.
"For one thing," she told Arutz-7, "the U.S. has no death penalty for the charge on which Jonathan was accused or convicted. It has a death penalty only for treason - and Jones knows that Jonathan was never accused of treason. It is merely because Israel seems to have abandoned its agent in the field that the American Ambassador feels he can get away with talking like this."
"And where is Israel?!" she asked. "How can it be that the US Ambassador says that an Israeli agent deserved to be executed, and Israel is silent?!"
Arutz-7 contacted the Foreign Ministry for its response, and was told that the matter would be checked. The Ministry later issued a statement to the effect that Ambassador Yoram Ben-Ze'ev, the head of the North American Division of the Foreign Ministry, had asked for a meeting with Jones, "in which Ben-Ze'ev reiterated the Ministry's well-known policy on Pollard." Asked to elaborate on the details of this policy, the Ministry spokesman told Arutz-7, "It is well-known."
Such a reaction did not mollify MK Uri Ariel, the head of the Knesset lobby for Pollard. MK Ariel demanded that Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni herself demand an immediate apology from Jones. "For spying for a friendly country," Ariel wrote to Livni, "no one has ever received a sentence even close to the sentence that Pollard has served thus far - 22 years! ... The remarks by Jones border on anti-Semitism and a hostile attitude towards Israel..."
"Israel was forced to employ Pollard as its agent," Ariel continued, "only because America betrayed our trust and hid critical information from us regarding chemical weapons and anti-Israeli terrorist plots in Arab nations, in blatant violation of agreements we had with the US which we kept in full... The fact that Israel does not demand his release even after 22 years is endangering an agent that Israel sent on a mission - and also paves the way for statements like those made by Jones."
Mrs. Pollard said, "The remarks by Ambassador Jones fly in the face of former CIA director James Woolsey's opinion that Jonathan should be released already. He is also contradicting former Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger, who said that the charges against him were inflated to begin with."
New Bumper Sticker Campaign
At the same time, a new grassroots campaign is underway to "express the nation's desire" to see Jonathan Pollard home - via bumper stickers. The organizers hope to "stick" 100,000 cars.
Eliana, a 19-year-old from Be'er Sheva doing a year of national service in Raanana, is one of the driving forces behind the new campaign. "It's only been about a week, and we estimate that some 5,000 cars already have the new sticker. We have been shocked at the amount of people calling in or emailing us, asking for the stickers. And it's not just high schoolers who have free time and can give them out at intersections - there have also been many office workers asking us for 50 or more that they can give out to their fellow employees. People really want Pollard home already!"
The campaign comes on the heels of reports that Pollard's health, long impaired, has deteriorated severely in recent weeks. He is simply "living on miracles," his wife summed up.
The bumper sticker campaign organizers explain that given the fact that the Israeli government shows no sign of taking any initiative to seek Pollard's release, "we ask: How can we express in the fastest, strongest, and most effective way, the will of the nation to free Jonathan Pollard?" Their answer was to "very quickly distribute and post 100,000 or more bumper stickers on cars throughout the country. With this many bumper stickers on cars traveling the length and breadth of the country, it will be impossible to ignore the message: We Want Pollard Home Now!"
I'm waiting for Jones to make the same comments regarding Carter, Clinton, Pelosi, Reid and Murtha.
Right on Jones!
I know nothing about Pollard. I'll have to research it.
Perhaps that is exactly what Jones meant. Perhaps authorities wanted to make sure that it wasn't possible for a judge to impose the death penalty and so they chose an option that would prevent that.
I'm obviously as pro-Israel as a person can get, but Pollard was a spy and deserves to rot in prison.
I'd like to buy Richard Jones a bottle of grand cru Bordeux. Pollard is a punk and a traitor. You can't serve two masters.
Right there with you, I support Israel, but Jones is right.
A lot of those secrets ended up in the hands of the ChiComs.
That remark by our Ambassador to Israel was gratuitous and ill-considered. But it should be noted that the headline was not an accurate quote.
I've always been a big supporter of Israel, but the Pollard and Liberty situations have always hit my hot buttons.
After you do, you will porobably agree with me:
I know nothing about Jones, but I like him!
thats what you gamble when you play high stakes spy game.
he knew the risks
he accepted a large sum of money
let him rot, or it will encourage others
"For spying for a friendly country,"
Indeed true. However, if sensitive information is stolen from country A and given to country B, country A can no longer contain that information. Once Pollard passed on the information, the US needed to assume that it was in the ether.
"no one has ever received a sentence even close to the sentence that Pollard has served thus far - 22 years!
This is a lie. Many Americans have been executed for treason in history.
The remarks by Jones border on anti-Semitism and a hostile attitude towards Israel..."
This is pathetic and sad. Especially considering the real anti-Semitism that rockets over the northern border every few years.
"Israel was forced to employ Pollard as its agent," Ariel continued, "only because America betrayed our trust and hid critical information from us regarding chemical weapons and anti-Israeli terrorist plots in Arab nations, in blatant violation of agreements we had with the US which we kept in full...
I don't know to what extent this is the case. Certainly the pro-Pollard forces claim it. But Pollard, as a recipient of a very high security clearance knew the risk he was taking. This is the only way the government has to deal with violations of security clearances. If Pollard is given a deal because of international pressure, then there's no end to this.
The fact that Israel does not demand his release even after 22 years is endangering an agent that Israel sent on a mission
Actually, Israel should not demand his release for a simple reason: To send a message to their spies that if they get caught, the Minister "will disavow any knowledge."
He is also contradicting former Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger, who said that the charges against him were inflated to begin with."
Well, Cap's boss didn't pardon him. And come to think of it, Mrs. Pollard missed her big chance. I guess she couldn't scrape up as much cash as Denise Rich.
I agree. I am a big supporter of most things for Israel, but this is NOT one of them. I say we send Pollard's body back to Israel after he is DEAD.
Maybe not, but I like plain-speaking folks myself. I hate diplomatic mumbo-jumbo myself.
Or oral dick-tation either!
I too am pro-Israel. I am also Jewish, and that makes me particularly furious when the name Pollard is brought up. I am disgusted with that man and, having heard her before, with his wife as well.
Anyone who sells out my country --- whether for money or ideology, I don't care --- should rot in jail.
I'm fairly fluent in diplo-speak. The ambassador could have said something like - "Israel is a great friend and ally with the United States - but that was not the issue in the Pollard case. The laws of the United States have severe penalties for espionage on behalf of a foreign nation - even if that nation is a close ally. The Pollard case was handled according to our laws, and should not be construed as a threat to our close relationship, blah blah blah blah, etc."
From the article, we should be able to box him up and send him home shortly.
And you have no interest in finding out either, do you?
You've obviously decided "my country, right or wrong," because you've had no trouble concocting condemnations even to the point of altering quotes to do it.
You would have made a "good German."
Huh? Am I missing something here?
There was no trace of remorse, not a hint of the possibility that, in retrospect, he might have been wrong when he ordered that vital information to be withheld from an ally henceforth.
His words: "In 1981, when the Iraqi nuclear reactor was bombed by Israel, I wondered where the Israelis got their targeting material. In Honoring our commitment to Israel's defense we provided satellite photography of potential direct threats, but when I checked, I found out that Israel had requisitioned data on areas that were quite a distance away - Iraq, Libya, Pakistan, etc. I made a decision to limit the process to within 250 miles."
Just like that. Period. End of issue. No need to consult the potential victim, even if it is a Jewish state whose survival is supposed to be national policy. The decision was made and that was that. He sneered at the furious protests by then Israeli Defense Minister Ariel Sharon as he told the press conference that Caspar Weinberger supported his decision, and that Safire complained in vain about the new policy to CIA Director Casey.
Question: who is the writer referring to? As a point of history, was this kind of retaliation for the Osirac bombing diplomatically defensible, particularly when it was in violation of well established security agreements?
I will not respond to your disgusting aspersions.
I altered nothing. I cut and pasted directly. If I left something out, it was only for brevity. If I left something else out that you feel is exculpatory, by all means include it.
As to complex agreements between nations, I am willing to stipulate that the US and Israel engaged in a treaty which required the US to give Israel information which the Israelis knew the Americans had but needed a spy to find out what they knew they didn't have or to know what they didn't know that they were supposed to know.
In any case, Pollard played the spy game and he got caught. Spies don't get diplomatic protection.
He is a spy.
I'm sorry, I couldn't get past the first paragraph, which is the most awful prose I have ever seen in print. As to the rest, I don't know what the hell this writer is talking about.
Could you please quote something that has a bit less of a "third grade girl's diary" feel to it? I'm quite serious. I don't mind learning, but even for a polemic this is the most poorly-written piece of garbage I have ever seen.
I don't say this lightly, that is just plain terrible.
Well I'll respond to yours...
From the article:
"For spying for a friendly country," Ariel wrote to Livni, "no one has ever received a sentence even close to the sentence that Pollard has served thus far - 22 years!
Your version:
"For spying for a friendly country,"
Indeed true. However...etc.
"no one has ever received a sentence even close to the sentence that Pollard has served thus far - 22 years!
This is a lie. Many Americans have been executed for treason in history.
You made one statement into two, and by the way, what contemporary spy has been executed by our government, even working for an enemy?
I am willing to stipulate that the US and Israel engaged in a treaty which required the US to give Israel information which the Israelis knew the Americans had but needed a spy to find out what they knew they didnt have or to know what they didnt know that they were supposed to know.
That would be wrong. See my previous post with the long quote.
The SOB was CONVICTED. He should have been executed years ago.
Talk about third grade girls...would you like me to fluff your pillow and fetch your slippers too?
Try answering the questions for a start. And don't give me this effete crap that you can't read it. It made it past a real editor to get published already, so if you can't read it, you can't read.
Because of the nature of the security clearance Pollard held, the treason charge has a much lower threshold.
Tomoya Kawakita was convicted of treason and sentenced to death. His case is interesting because he didn't really give any particular benefit to the enemy. Eisenhower commuted his sentence. The Rosenbergs were, of course, executed.
Robert Hanssen would most likely have been sentenced to death for treason but confessed and plead down to a sentence that spared his life.
Sgt. Bryan Patrick Regan's case might lead to treason charges. A very interesting article at the FoxNews website details why treason is not pursued more often. Basically, it's easier to charge them with murder.
All of these were cases in which the countries were unfriendly, but I think it's clear that if the Rosenbergs gave the secret of the bomb to, say, Canada, they still would have been executed.
A junior high school doesn't count. You didn't provide even a source or a link. Please do me a favor, read it out loud. With a straight face.
Irrelevant. You altered the quote to call the Minister a liar: he was not.
And you have shown nothing to validate your assertion the friendliness of the country doesn't matter. Cite me some case law. Your gratuitous assertions are just as gratuitously denied.
That was kind of the point of asking who was being discussed. The larger point is if you don't know who, you don't know enough.
This guy knew the rules, played the game, and lost. He is a liar and betrayer of the deepest trust that a government can grant a citizen. No sympathy here, none at all.
Please return the favor. I would like very much to know the specific treaty obligation that required that every bit of information that Pollard passed on be passed on. You know, paragraphs, sections, etc.
I don't think so.
I have no intention of playing the foil for your little $h!thouse lawyer routine. Once you lose the moral high ground, you can't litigate it back.
Bobby Ray Inman unilaterally changed the foreign policy of this country, potentially threatening the very existence of Israel, and nobody did squat about it: except Pollard.
That being said, I have very little tolerance for the belligerent crying about how he got punched in the nose when all he did was spit in the other guy's face.
So they admit that they had an agent in the field? What's the problem then? He belongs in jail, period.
Actually, that's not true. In all of US history, there have been less than 40 treason prosecutions, fewer convictions, and even fewer executions. Many of those prosecutions are related to the Whiskey Rebellion, Thomas Jefferson's Embargo Act, and the Aaron Burr conspiracy. The Rosenbergs, for instance, were convicted and executed on espionage charges, not treason charges.
Of course, I asked the question because I knew the answer.
Furthermore, you've making a moral argument, but this is a legal question and, at every opportunity, Pollard's case has been reviewed and clemency has been rejected at all levels. Particularly, when it would have been for easier to let an old man go off to Israel and forget it all.
The data I've been able to find suggests that intelligence people strongly believe that Pollard leaked huge swaths of classified info, far beyond the reactor. Codes, etc.
Most spies in America don't get executed and the punishment has more to do with the nature of the information taken, the intent of the spy (mishandled vs. purposeful) and the level of cooperation. Pollard released very sensitive information, purposefully and was unrepentant and unhelpful, according to national security people in all subsequent administrations. Clearly, they view him as second only to Ames.
What must it say about Jonathan Pollard that Clinton would release Marc Rich but not Pollard? I fully expected it to bealast-minute pardon, at least.
As to you, you are at best ajerk and a bully and I have had it with your invective, abusive language and cherry-picking.
Clinton was willing to let him go initially, but others pressured him to keep in prison. Netanyahu was trying to make a deal during the Wye River accords. Israel has never tried since.
A few years ago, Jesse Jackson got into a rut where everything that displeased him was a reminder of Selma.
This was the rumor. It's not clear to me that either Clinton wanted this or Bibi for that matter. I'd certainly think that if pro-Pollard forces had decided to "leak" this information, Bibi wouldn't have wanted to deal with a political backlash if he downplayed how important it was to him.
So, Pollard would not have to have been changed with treason to be subject to death, or have the sentences changed since then?
Apparently the deal is that after the death penalty was revived in the late 1970s, espionage convictions weren't just automtically subject to it in the way they'd been before. I found something showing James Trafficant trying to get it passed in 1989--probably in the wake of Pollard. It's definitely on the table today--here's the DOJ worksheet to decide.
Of course, the other problem with a treason charge is that what it is is very explicitly spelled out in the Constitution."Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court." Did Pollard levy war against the US? Is Israel our enemy? The latter, at least, is a question that I can't see any administration wanting to get into.
I thought Denise jumped in the sack with Willie...
Right. For that reason, it would be almost impossible for Pollard to be charged with Treason and the only way is if they could argue that an enemy managed to get the information second-hand. Not only is that a stretch, but it's hard to argue this because there wasn't a state of war with virtually anyone at the time.
Come to think of it, I don't know that any of the Soviet spies were charged with treason. A half-decent lawyer could easily argue that there was no state of war.
Jon Pollard, a civilian intelligence analyst in the Navy, wanted to be a spy so badly that he even seemed to think he was a spy long before he actually was. As a college student at Stanford he boasted that he had contacts in the Israeli intelligence services and that his father was a CIA agent who worked in Prague. Both claims were false. He entered phoney education and employment information on job applications and mailed himself telegrams under aliases he made up for himself. Strangely, none of the odd details about Pollard's personality were noted on his Navy background check report.
Pollard became a Navy analyst in 1979, after leaving a graduate program in law at Tufts University. Initially, he was given an unusually high level of security clearance, but it was revoked within a few months after Pollard made unauthorized and suspicious contact with an attaché from the South African Embassy. It is unclear what business Pollard had with the embassy official, and it was never investigated.
In 1984 Pollard was promoted to a position as an analyst in the Naval Criminal Investigation Service (NIS), and his security clearances were reinstated. He was placed in a new, high-priority unit, the Anti-Terrorism Alert Center, where he gained access to satellite photographs and CIA reports. At least three of Pollard's acquaintances recall that within months of his assuming his new post he mailed them unsolicited collections of classified information for no apparent reason.
Shortly after he began working at the NIS Pollard met an Israeli intelligence officer in New York named Avi Sella, who was posing as a graduate student at New York University. Sella requested classified information from Pollard — any information he could deliver — and told him that he would be paid for whatever he could provide.
A few days later, Sella and Pollard met in Washington. Pollard provided detailed information on chemical warfare manufacturing plants in Iraq. For this initial transaction Pollard was given a $10,000 diamond and sapphire ring for his fiancée, Anne Henderson, and paid over $10,000 in cash. Sella also agreed to pay Pollard $1,500 a month for his espionage activities as long as they continued.
For about a year after the time Pollard met Avi Sella, he gathered computer printouts, satellite photographs, and classified documents from his department three times a week and brought them to various Washington apartments. There, they were copied and returned to Pollard, who restored them to the Navy the following day. In exchange for his services Pollard received, in addition to the agreed salary, a lavish collection of gifts for himself and his wife, including a honeymoon in a private compartment aboard the Orient Express.
By his own estimates Pollard passed to his Israeli handlers more than 800 classified publications and more than 1,000 cables, probably the largest cache of materials ever passed through espionage. At one point, when Pollard's new wife was hoping to clinch a job interview at an international public relations firm with branches in China, he brought home five secret studies on China. Her presentation was assessed as brilliant.
Pollard was eventually captured on November 18, 1985, rather unceremoniously, walking out of his office with 60 top-secret documents in his briefcase. His supervisors had become suspicious of his voracious consumption of materials. Commenting not as much on the massive loss of classified documents to Israel and elsewhere but more on the extraordinary lack of security surrounding Pollard's carefree espionage activities, then Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger said, "It is difficult for me...to conceive of greater harm done to national security."
Pollard pleaded guilty to espionage and was sentenced to prison for life. His wife served a five-year sentence for unauthorized possession of government documents. Upon her release, Anne Henderson Pollard divorced her husband. In 1993 Secretary of Defense Les Aspin reported that Pollard had tried 14 times to disclose classified information in letters written to various recipients from his prison cell.

That's not true. We allow the death penalty for other crimes. Murder is the most obvious one.
It is merely because Israel seems to have abandoned its agent in the field that the American Ambassador feels he can get away with talking like this... And where is Israel?!" she asked. "How can it be that the US Ambassador says that an Israeli agent deserved to be executed, and Israel is silent?!"
If you don't understand the reactions of either side, maybe it's because your perspective is a bit off.
Thank you. He sounds like a real winner. /sarc

MediaWorks, a project-based, learning program in which student teams engage in audio and visual production projects for real-world clients just completed a flagship corporate identity and messaging project for the Santa Clara-based nonprofit, ALearn.
Check out the project on YouTube.
Cogswell College instructors Julius Dobos and Anthony Dias envisioned the concept and are leading the implementation of the MediaWorks program. Utilizing their industry experience, they oversee student-produced works that include animation, live action footage, sound design and original music. The program's audio and visual production projects involve real-life client meetings, creative brief and concept generation, participation in the approval process and project and time management.
The ALearn media production, just a little over a minute long, included a newly-animated corporate logo, original music and sound design. A preliminary version of the video was previewed and well-received at ALearn's annual fundraising dinner in October.
"The MediaWorks program is designed to immerse students in the real world process of audio and visual production," says Anthony Dias, co-leader for the project and digital audio technology (DAT) instructor at Cogswell. "Our students sat down with the client, listened to their vision and asked them questions aimed at guiding the creative process."
MediaWorks has created a shift from the college's standard semesters-long portfolio classes—some of which can take up to 18 months for completion—to 6-8 week deadline-driven client projects where students work in teams of 12-20. Dias and Dobos, adopted this model in an effort to mimic the experience of working for a large creative agency.
"We wanted the students to feel the pressure of the project's deadlines, just as they would if they were working in a large creative agency," says Julius Dobos, distinguished lecturer at Cogswell and MediaWorks' co-leader for the project "There's a big difference between creating sound design for movies and sound design for corporate communications, one is entertainment, the other is advertising."
Dobos has composed movie scores for Hollywood films and admits that most of the students want to work in Hollywood or a big studio environment creating varying forms of entertainment.
Dobos continues, "Our students have the chance to utilize traditional corporate work as a stepping stone to the entertainment field, which is a lot harder to get into directly. Through MediaWorks, they will have big-name Silicon Valley companies in their portfolios that even industry professionals would envy, which presents a huge edge in the marketplace. Not only being ready to work with a major client but showing the results of having done so makes a significant difference on a job interview or when you are launching your own business."
The goal of the MediaWorks program is to generate sufficient revenue to provide for student compensation and the ability of the audio, engineering and animation departments to make technology purchases as new industry tools become available.
Cogswell is in talks with several high-visibility Silicon Valley firms for media projects for 2014 and has begun work on a yet-to-be announced multinational corporate client project, currently under non-disclosure.
We look forward to sharing the projects with you as they become available.

Colleges admit students with strong analytical skills, but may reject creative, wise and community-minded students who'd also do well, argues psychologist Robert Sternberg. After trying his ideas as a dean at Tufts, which attracts very well-qualified students, Sternberg became provost at Oklahoma State, which takes 70 to 75 percent of applicants. The university is testing new essay prompts to identify applicants with hard-to-measure qualities, reports Inside Higher Ed.
Oklahoma State accepts students with a 1090 SAT (without the writing test) or a 3.0 grade point average and top-third-of-the-class ranking. Students with lower grades and scores can get in by doing well on an essay question, which might ask about their goals or special interests.
The university is asking current freshmen to answer questions Sternberg developed. Several will be chosen for next year's applications. For example:
"Music spans time and culture. Explain how the lyrics of one of your favorite songs define you or your cultural experience."
"If you were able to open a local charity of your choice, what type of charity would it be, how would you draw people to your cause, and whom would it benefit?"
"Today's movies often feature superheroes and the supernatural. If you could have one superpower, what would it be, and how would you use it? Who would be your archenemy, and what would be his or her superpower?"
"Roughly 99 percent" of admitted applicants have qualified on some combination of grades and test scores, Sternberg says. "Who believes, really, that ACTs and high school grades are going to predict who will become the positive active citizens and leaders of tomorrow?"
I do. The combination of high school grades and test scores predicts who'll complete a college degree, which predicts active citizenship, such as voting and volunteering.
A good writer can express creativity and devotion to community service — maybe even wisdom — by writing about goals and interests. Just because the question is boring doesn't mean the answer has to be. A bad writer won't do any better because he knows a lot about comic superheroes. I suspect few C+ students with mediocre ACT or SAT scores can write a good essay on any topic.
But it's an experiment. Maybe Oklahoma State will find hidden gems in its applicant pool by tweaking the essay prompts.

OCZ Technology Group, a leading supplier of flash and DRAM-based products, on Monday unveiled several new solid-state drives (SSDs) with enhanced storage capacities. The new SSDs will be able to replace hard disk drives (HDDs) inside workstations that require high performance storage sub-systems in addition to high capacities.
The new drives – Vertex 2 and Agility 2 – now offer 400GB and 480GB editions and feature up to 250MB/s read and 240MB/s write speeds, with higher 4k random writes up to 22 500 IOPS on the Vertex 2-series and up to 10 000 IOPS on Agility 2-series. The new drivers also sport Serial ATA-300 interface and come in 2.5" form-factor, hence are easily to integrate into today's desktop and mobile platforms. The novelties support Trim feature support for Windows 7 systems.
"Solid-state drives have long delivered on exceptional performance and reliability but capacity has been a barrier to adoption for some clients. Building on our popular Agility 2 and Vertex 2 SSD lines our new high capacity models give customers up to 480GB of storage space allowing them to enjoy all the benefits of SSDs with plenty of room for even the largest applications and files, making this the ideal solution for customers that place a premium on speed, reliability and capacity," said Ryan Petersen, chief executive officer of the OCZ Technology Group.
Vertex 2 and Agility 2 Series will now ship with these latest capacities, and come backed by a 3-year warranty. OCZ did not unveil recommended pricing for the new SSDs, however, it can be easily assumed that the novelties will approach or even exceed $1000 price-tags.

Meeting Description:
Moscow Syntax and Semantics (MOSS)
October 9-11, 2009
The first Moscow Syntax and Semantics (MOSS) conference will be held on October
9-11, 2009 at the Institute of the Russian language of the Russian Academy of
Sciences in Moscow.
Our young conference is a descendant of two separate conferences that took place
in Moscow earlier, the Formal Semantics in Moscow (FSiM) workshop and the
Syntactic Structures conference. MOSS's aim is to bring together people working
within different theoretical frameworks and to encourage syntacticians and
semanticists to have more substantial interaction with each other. Young
researchers are especially welcome to apply.
Invited Speakers:
Artemis Alexiadou, University of Stuttgart
Rajesh Bhatt, University of Massachusetts
Sergey Tatevosov, Moscow State University
Call for Papers
There will be three sessions at the conference: a (mostly) syntax session, a
(mostly) semantics session, and also a separate thematic session on the syntax
and semantics of adjectives.
The syntactic part is not limited to any particular framework or any particular
topic. We invite works in syntactic typology as well as in formal syntax, and
theoretically and typologically oriented descriptive works. The participants
should be ready to talk to an audience which might not share all of their
theoretical assumptions. The semantic part also is not limited to any particular
view on the architecture of grammar, and we invite all works in formal semantics
and formal pragmatics, and especially ones stressing the interaction of
semantics with syntax and the consequences of semantic data and analyses on the
choice between different frameworks.
The special thematic session on adjectives and adverbials is designed to bring
together researchers working on adjectives and adverbials from inside of
semantics and syntax. On the both sides, there has been significant progress
made recently, though the area is still heavily understudied, and as in many
other areas, there is less syntactic-semantic interaction going on than one
would hope there would be.

"You have to do your own growing no matter how tall your grandfather was. "
When charities take flight
Charities that use aviation are legion, with hundreds plying the skies every day on behalf of sick, poor and disaster-affected people worldwide. Here's a look at just a few of these organizations.
Air Care Alliance
For a sky-bound view of the landscape of charity flying, there is no better place to start than Air Care Alliance, a group of charitable organizations that work with volunteer pilots to help people in need. ACA acts as a clearinghouse for flight requests. Often, people have heard that charitable flights are available, but they don't know how to find local organizations offering them, so ACA gets the initial call. "Our website takes care of a tremendous number of people getting into this for the first time," said ACA executive director Rol Murrow. "Our primary duty is to support and promote public-benefit flying."
Murrow has a philosophical view of why so many pilots donate time and aircraft to charitable missions. "Pilots feel blessed that they have this special ability to enjoy flying and want to share that with others and benefit others," he said. "Every time there has been a disaster, there has been an outpouring of help from the aviation community. Our job is to channel that in useful directions."
ACA members mostly provide short flights on small aircraft but, said Murrow, "we have lots of patients who need long-distance transport. Some need stretcher care or reclining seats and some are immune deficient and can't go on airlines." But typically the regional charities don't use business jets, and the one charity that works directly with business jet operators–Corporate Angel Network–flies only cancer patients. "There are a variety of operations where jet aircraft would be of great use," Murrow said, "and Air Care Alliance would be helpful to broker that kind of activity."
Another great need, he added, is for transporting patients who may require care in flight. Only one U.S.-based organization, Grace on Wings, flies an air-ambulance-equipped airplane, a Mitsubishi MU-2 turboprop.
When Hurricane Katrina slammed into Louisiana and Mississippi on Aug. 29, 2005, the lack of response by the U.S. government prompted a group of aviators to form CARE (Corporate Aircraft Responding to Emergencies). The idea was that business aircraft often aren't needed for their normal duties, and an organization like CARE could help arrange for them to be available for disaster relief flights.
After Katrina, the group's five founders rounded up pilots and aircraft to fly first responders in and bring out victims. Their network proved enormously helpful after the Haiti earthquake on Jan. 12, 2010. After that, CARE moved to incorporate, but changed its moniker to Aerobridge to avoid confusion with a similarly named charity.
"Private aviation is the fastest way to respond in a disaster," according to Aerobridge president Marianne Stevenson, who is also CEO of Strategy Aero Group.
Aerobridge has set up five staging areas in the U.S., with pre-designated resources available for immediate response. The charity is always looking for donations and volunteers, but it's not all about flying. One key need is for funds to pay for satellite phone service plans. "When you go to a disaster, you need communication," Stevenson said. "But satellite phones can't be turned on in the blink of an eye."
Another service that Aerobridge provides is coordinating relief efforts and working with the U.S. Navy to help move supplies around the world. The group also assists other organizations in preparing for disasters. "The entire answer to a puzzle isn't one facet," Stevenson said. "It's about being able to work between the available components. It's irresponsible to tell someone that the only way to get there is by aircraft. What we're principally designed to do is to react in a disaster."
Corporate Angel Network
Many business jet flyers are familiar with Corporate Angel Network because the charity fills empty seats in their company aircraft with cancer patients who need to travel for treatment, as well as bone-marrow donors. While some such patients can fly on airlines, said executive director Peter Fleiss, many can't because their immune systems are depleted. Doctors often forbid such patients to utilize the airlines, but they are able to obtain medical clearance for travel on a corporate jet.
CAN, which was founded 31 years ago, now transports about 250 patients every month. The charity's 40,000th patient flew in May. More than 500 corporations participate, offering their empty seats or hours on fractional-share jets. Many of the participating companies are household names but don't want to be identified, Fleiss said, and there is no tax benefit to donating an empty seat on an airplane that is already going somewhere. "They're doing it from the goodness of their hearts," he added.
While many pilots would gladly make seats on their company aircraft available for CAN flights, approval must come from upper management. "It's amazing how many executives think it's a good idea," Fleiss said. "What's even more interesting, they end up flying with a patient. Often the executives will introduce themselves to patients and start talking. When they hear what that patient has been through, they want to do more."
Six employees, 35 volunteers and many donations make CAN run. The key to using donated seats effectively is software that matches patients with available seats. Additional legwork involves ensuring that patients have confirmed appointments and transportation at the destination. "We want it to be seamless to the corporation," Fleiss explained. The software looks at departure and destination opportunities within 100 miles of the patient's home and medical appointment locations. Those parameters can be adjusted if the patient is willing. CAN works closely with LimoLink for ground transport, and that company has donated many trips to CAN patients. "They have been wonderful to us," Fleiss said.
CAN patients must be able to walk up and down the cabin entry stairs by themselves. "In the unlikely event there is an [incident], we don't want the flight crew or executives to delay their exit because they have to help our patient off."
One of CAN's major fundraisers is a gala at the National Business Aviation Association convention every year. "We couldn't do this without the enthusiasm of the corporations that participate," Fleiss said. "They're the ones that allow the patients onboard and get them to clinical trials and specialized treatment that they can't get in their own area that can save their lives."
The Orbis DC-10 Flying Eye Hospital is probably the biggest airplane in the world dedicated to public-benefit flights. Orbis turns the flying charity model around; instead of flying patients to aid, it brings aid to the patients.
"There are 39 million blind people in the world and 32 million of them don't have to be," said Orbis' Jack McHale. Founder David Paton, a Houston ophthalmologist, knew that simple operations could restore sight to those 32 million, and the best way to help them would be to teach local doctors how to perform sight-restoring operations.
"Restoring sight is a known skill," McHale said. "It's not like looking for a cure for cancer. It's relatively inexpensive and transforming. The best way to do it is on an airplane. It's not just the airplane flying in to do surgeries and leaving. We train the whole team–nurses, surgeons, biomedical engineers who keep the equipment running and anesthesiologists."
Paton and other doctors, aided by FlightSafety International founder A.L. Ueltschi and Betsy Trippe DeVecchi (daughter of Pan Am founder Juan Trippe), used a Douglas DC-8, donated by United Airlines, to launch Orbis' aerial peregrinations in 1984. Ten years later, the organization replaced the DC-8 with a DC-10. McHale was working for FedEx, helping coordinate donated maintenance, spares and logistics services for Orbis, and FedEx founder Fred Smith asked him to manage the upgrade to the DC-10, which was paid for by contributions from Ueltschi, Hong Kong businessman Y.C. Ho and an anonymous donor.
Now FedEx has given the group an MD-10, which is a DC-10 upgraded with an MD-11 cockpit. It is being upgraded to the latest Flying Eye Hospital configuration, and will feature an operating room, recovery room, labs, an audio/visual studio and a classroom. Orbis is building all this functionality into nine large containers that can be loaded and unloaded through the MD-10's massive cargo door.
"The airplane is a powerful advocate for our missions, to tell the world that there are 32 million people who could be cured," McHale said. "It's a door opener. It is the most unique airplane in the world. It's humanitarian, a blending of aviation and medicine, and supported almost entirely by the aviation community."
Orbis' Flying Eye Hospitals have visited 77 countries in the past 30 years, and the charity and its partners have helped 90,000 doctors and 215,000 nurses and other medical personnel learn skills that have allowed them to treat 18.8 million people. "Orbis is one of those organizations that are taking their help and their work directly to the people that need it," says actor Daniel Craig at the end of a promotional movie for the charity. "It's as simple as that. When you give one child their sight back, you give them color, clouds, games, their mother's face, the beauty of the landscape in which they live, you give them their life."
If You Want to Help... Here's how to contact the charities mentioned in this article:
Air Care Alliance: firstname.lastname@example.com, (888) 260-9707
Aerobridge: firstname.lastname@example.com, (951) 491-9827
Corporate Angel Network: firstname.lastname@example.com, (914) 328-1313
Orbis: email@example.com, (800) 672-4787
Also check out Angel Flight. It is a nation-wide volunteer pilot organization that provides free air transportation to low income folks for medical and other purposes.
While the 2010 Haiti earthquake has long lost the media's attention it remains the worst disaster of the century in terms of loss of life and injuries. This long-suffering Caribeean nation is still the poorest of the poor right in our own back yard. Support American charities working overseas by offering empty seats or surplus cargo capacity or fly worthwhile missions to where its needed the most. We'll arrange it all. Call Airlift Flyers Aviation (www.ALFA.aero)at 305-470-1500 or email email@example.com
I think it is highly recommendable that charity organizations must be provided with the facility to operate internationally. The reason behind it is that there are many organizations working in developed countries that do not find enough opportunities to perform.

Springfield Activists Rally Against Hate Crime
The reaction continues in Springfield to allegations that four young white people threatened a biracial teenager walking downtown on Memorial Day.
The Eugene Register-Guard reports community activists held a rally on Wednesday, and people who attended asked downtown business owners to post "Hate Free Zone" leaflets.
Police said they arrested a fifth youth, who admitted tipping off one of the suspects that police were looking for him. And police said they were still trying to identify who spray-painted swastikas and racist messages in a neighborhood where one suspect lives.
Earlier this week, prosecutors filed a felony hate-crime charge against a 22-year-old man identified as the driver of a pickup truck flying a Confederate flag. He and three teenagers were accused of yelling slurs and running after the youth.

Interactive Travel Map | Text the SecretaryAbout the Author: Michele Kimpel Guzman serves as a Consular Officer at the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City.
Mexico is often in the news in the United States, but for those of us serving here, it can be a bit frustrating to see the constant, almost exclusive focus on security issues. Without a doubt, security and drug trafficking form a significant part of the bilateral agenda, but there are also many other important and interesting things going on between our two countries. That is why many of us were quite excited when Secretary Clinton made time on her recent visit to Mexico to meet with an inspiring group of indigenous students and teachers who have participated in exchange programs in the U.S. They engaged in a roundtable discussion at Mexico City's beautiful and historic Palacio de Bellas Artes (Palace of Fine Arts).
All participants in these DOS- and USAID-funded exchange programs are chosen for their leadership skills and demonstrated records of dedication to developing their communities. The five who participated in the dialogue with Secretary Clinton have gone above and beyond, turning the education and leadership skills gained during their one- or two-year exchange programs in the U.S. into a variety of on-the-ground development efforts. For example, Miguel Arias Martínez of the Tsotsil community has used his exchange program experience to develop a program for pedagogical leadership training in indigenous instruction that supports dozens of teachers, several hundred youth, and about 4,000 schools. Adriana Roque Corona of the Hñahñu community, who has used her U.S. exchange experience to develop a program to help young children read and write in their native language, said "[the United States and Mexico] share two important things in common: teamwork and respect…. We share a relationship that is more familial than diplomatic."
Secretary Clinton was enthusiastic about the success of this program and the positive difference participants are making in their Mexican indigenous communities. She said, "[w]e think partnerships for more educational experiences and opportunities is a very tangible way for us to deepen and further the relationship between our two countries." She also added the hope that "… in my country as well as in Mexico, we can finally arrive at a point where no child's dreams are denied, where it will be up to every single child to decide what he or she is willing to work for, … but that that work will be rewarded."
To date, over 270 students and teachers from towns all over Mexico have participated in these exchanges. Every one of them has returned to their home towns to carry out development projects that are changing lives and the future course of the participants' communities. Speakers and staff alike were thrilled to have the opportunity to highlight just one shining example of the multi-faceted nature of our bilateral agenda.

No offense to Aaron, but his book has no historical basis and isn't the work of someone who has looked through the sources. Think of it as a romantic interpretation from someone mystically inclined.
My point was that the way these things are written, they are made for Westerners in order to make tea more sexy. Why did the author not include common people, and instead chose to focus on these rare and romantic sounding figures? I think the answer is pretty obvious. It's like reducing the US to rangers and cowboys, pioneers and pilgrims. Yes, they were part of the picture, but that's not exactly accurate.

Physician Assistant
Obtaining the skills and knowledge to practice as a Physician Assistant is a complex process. A carefully planned course of study has been developed to offer a balance of didactic and clinical knowledge. A significant component of the educational process is the socialization of the student to the character, performance, and role of a provider of medical care. The evaluation of the student's adaptation to this role depends on the experienced judgment of individual faculty members. It is important to recognize that these subjective judgments may transcend or be independent of traditional paper and pencil tests and other similar objective measures of academic performance. PA education involves instruction from practicing clinicians with unpredictable schedules.
Many opportunities, in the form of evaluations, are provided for measurement of progress by both faculty and student. In addition to a fully staffed RIT Learning Development Center, individual instruction and tutoring may be provided in certain instances. Every effort is made to provide a complete learning environment. Even though a variety of experiences, learning situations, and tools are provided by the Program, the single greatest factor, motivation, is essentially up to the student.
2015-2016 Physician Assistant Program Fact Sheet
Physician Assistant BS/MS – 5 Year Program Curriculum
Physician Assistant Program Goals & Successes
The RIT PA Program is transitioning to a graduate (BS/MS) program. As the program is currently delivered, the pre-professional phase (years 1 & 2) involve courses in basic sciences, mathematics, and the liberal arts. The professional phase (years 3, 4, 5) is fully accredited by the Accreditation Review Commission on Education for the Physician Assistant, Inc. (ARC-PA) and encompasses 30 months. Students participate in the program during the summer between these last two years. The professional phase includes 18 months of clinical course work and 12 months of clinical rotations. The required rotations are in Inpatient Medicine, Family Medicine, Orthopedics, Emergency Medicine, OB/GYN, Pediatrics, General Surgery, Geriatrics, Psychiatry, and one elective rotation.
The five-year graduate BS/MS degree program curricula will be include new coursework, which include expanding the current professional phase; 3rd year to encompass the 3rd and 4th years of didactic medical education. The final (5th) year will culminate with clinical rotations. Qualified transfer students are accepted, on a space available basis, into the program. Prior health care and/or shadowing of PAs is highly encouraged.
Physician assistants' duties vary depending on the state and the specialty in which they practice. In most states, PAs also prescribe medications. Specialties include general medicine, emergency medicine, geriatrics, pediatrics, obstetrics/gynecology, general surgery, orthopedic surgery, neurosurgery, neonatology, etc. The clinical rotations during the upper division provide the student with an opportunity to explore these specialty areas.
- In addition to RIT's general admission procedures, the physician assistant program requires completion of a supplemental data packet, application and successful completion of an admission interview (by invitation). For details of the admission procedure utilized by the physician assistant program, please contact the RIT Office of Admissions at (585-475-6631).
- All prospective applicants must have a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 (on a 4.0 scale) to qualify for admission and must maintain a minimum GPA of 3.0 once enrolled in the program.

SugarCRM Garners Four CRM Market Leader Awards from CRM Magazine
SugarCRM Named Winner in Open-Source CRM Category, Advances to Leader in Sales Force Automation Category, and is Named a Leader in the Midmarket Suite and Small-Business Suite Categories
Cupertino, Calif. — August 23, 2012 — SugarCRM, the market-leading customer relationship management (CRM) company that enables effective customer engagement enterprise-wide, announced today that the company has won four awards in CRM magazine's 11th Annual CRM Market Leaders Awards program. Judges of the CRM Market Leader Awards, including the CRM industry's leading analysts and consultants, recognize key players in the fast-growing CRM space that are best responding to the needs of their customers in CRM's changing market.
This year, SugarCRM advanced in the Sales Force Automation category and was named a Leader, up from One to Watch in 2011. In addition, SugarCRM took home the following awards:
- Winner – Open-Source CRM category
- Leader – Midmarket Suite CRM category
- Leader – Small-Business Suite CRM category
In its article on the CRM Market Leaders Awards, CRM magazine notes that SugarCRM has dominated the Open-Source CRM award category since the magazine launched it in 2008 and calls Sugar CRM the open-source "standard bearer" and "the most significant open-source CRM solution vendor by a wide margin." In addition, "SugarCRM shows serious signs of moving in on territory that was previously staked out by its CRM competitors," said David Myron, editorial director of CRM and Speech Technology magazines. "SugarCRM also shows that it is rapidly enhancing and evolving its products to meet the rapid pace of change in the CRM market."
The full CRM magazine article can be found online at destinationcrm.com.

Review Details
Mercury M5 Tubular Rims W/ Dash HubsProduct Review (submitted on July 18, 2012):
Radially laced front wheels are pletny strong. Only consideration would be hub flange strength. If they are cold forged (like Shimano) they can often handle it. Hub warranties most always indicate if radial lacing will void the warranty or not.

A trio of vehicle thefts were reported in Pueblo the last couple of days.
A 1997 white Honda Civic worth about $3,000 was stolen Friday from the Pueblo Mall parking lot while a woman went inside for two hours.
A Nissan 200 SX worth approximately $1,200 was stolen from the Midtown Shopping Center on Friday as well. A man said he parked it there and when he returned, it was gone.
On Saturday a 2002 Pontiac Sunfire worth an estimated $3,000 was reported stolen.
A man said the Pontiac was stolen from his residence on the 2100 block of East 13th Street.
There is currently no suspect information for any of the car thefts.
Police are continuing to investigate each case.
A woman had her window smashed and identification and credit cards were taken from her car while it was parked at Pueblo Athletic Club.
Melissa Moran-Guillen told police someone broke into her 2007 Chevy Malibu between 6:45 and 8:30 p.m. on Friday.
The passenger front window was shattered. Moran-Guillen estimated it would take about $200 to repair it.
The thief stole Moran-Guillen's purse, which included her driver's license, Social Security card, credit card and Sears card.
She said her credit card has already been used at a Western Convenience store multiple times.
A suspect in the crime has not yet been tracked down.
Louis Richard Padilla, 25, of the 600 block of East Corona Avenue, was arrested Friday on suspicion of aggravated motor vehicle theft. He was being held in Pueblo County jail without bail pending a court appearance.

Baked Fish with Tomatoes, Capers, Garlic, Lemon and Rosemary over Blanched Asparagus
- 1 pound asparagus, tough ends trimmed
- 1 1/4 teaspoons salt, divided
- 3/4 teaspoon ground white pepper, divided
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 4 (4-ounce) trout fillets
- 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
- 1/4 cup capers, drained
- 2 tablespoons garlic, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon chopped rosemary leaves
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
Set a large 4-quart Dutch oven 3/4 filled with water over high heat. Bring the water to a boil and add the asparagus. Cook until the asparagus is tender, about 3 minutes. Remove the asparagus from the Dutch oven and place immediately into ice water to cool. Remove from the ice water and place on a sheet pan. Season the asparagus with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the white pepper and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Place in the oven for 3 minutes to re-warm once the fish has been removed from the oven.
Season the fish fillets on both sides with the remaining salt and pepper and lay in a 11 by 7 1/2-inch casserole dish. Add the tomatoes, capers, garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, rosemary and remaining olive oil to the casserole and place in the oven. Cook the fish until the flesh is lightly golden and flaky, about 10 minutes.
To serve the fish, divide the asparagus between 4 entree plates and lay a piece of fish with the tomatoes, capers, garlic and rosemary over the asparagus. Serve immediately.

The small, tubby F4F/FM-2 Wildcat is one of the important, yet often forgotten Allied fighters of World War II. Designed in 1935 by the Grumman Aircraft Corp., the XF4F-3 was the first all-metal, carrier launched, monoplane fighter purchased by the U.S. Navy. The F4F beat out competing designs from Brewster and Seversky. The robust and agile F4F was the primary front line fighter of the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps at the onset of World War II. This Wildcat proved to be dependable and was loved by pilots and maintenance crews alike.
The first Wildcats to see action were flown by the Royal Navy. Both Britain and France placed orders for the F4F-3 (although with different engines and armament layouts) during late 1939 and early 1940. The aircraft ordered by the French were claimed by the British after France fell in the fall of 1940. Known as the "Martlet", British Wildcats claimed their first victory on Dec. 25, 1940, almost a full year before the first American Wildcats saw action at Wake Island. The Wildcat was America's primary naval fighter through the end of 1942. However, during 1943 most Wildcat squadrons were re-equipped with either the larger Grumman F6F Hellcat or the Chance-Vought F4U Corsair.
By late June 1942, Grumman found itself hard pressed to maintain maximum production of both the F4F and TBF Avenger, while also beginning to tool-up the F6F Hellcat production lines. As a result, production of the Wildcat was transferred to five East Coast General Motors automobile plants. The General Motors FM-2 was the most numerous Wildcat variant produced. From mid-1943 to the end of the war, General Motors' Eastern Aircraft divison built 4,777 FM-2s -- nearly 70% of all Wildcats produced. The FM-2 differed from the original Grumman F4F in a number of ways. The FM-2 had a lighter, yet more powerful Wright R-1820 radial engine. Additionally, the plane carried four rather than six .50 caliber machine guns and was often fitted with HVARs (High-Velocity Aircraft Rockets) for use against ground targets, ships or surfaced submarines. The FM-2 also had a larger tail than the standard F4F to counter the increased torque produced by the Wright engine.
The Cavanaugh Flight Museum's FM-2 was one of the last Wildcats built and was accepted by the U.S. Navy only days before the official Japanese surrender in Tokyo Bay (a testament to the utility of the type). The museum's FM-2 spent most of its military career in storage at Bethpage, NY and was stricken from the U.S. Navy's inventory in 1947. The aircraft was restored in the late 1970s and was the Oshkosh Fly-In Grand Champion in 1979. Today, this aircraft carries the markings of a FM-2 from VC-70, a composite squadron which operated from the escort carrier U.S.S. Salamaua (CVE-96) from May to September 1945.

If you are writing an EMCP for the first time or want some help updating an existing EMCP, then we are here to help. Senior Export Compliance Specialists will review your EMCP based on the Compliance Guidelines: How to Develop an Effective Export Management and Compliance Program and Manual and the Audit Module: Self-Assessment Tool. This is a free service but companies are limited to just one submission. Typically, EMCPs will be returned to the originator within 30 calendar days.
Submitting Your EMCP
Send your written EMCP via email to the Director of the Export Management and Compliance Division, Tom Andrukonis.
Format: PDF or Word
Include a description of your company or link to your "About Us" page
No Cookie Cutter Approach.
Like fingerprints on a person, EMCPs are unique with each company. More importantly, an effective EMCP requires a high-level of detail with easy to read instructions. Lofty and vague policy statements should be strictly limited in an EMCP. Look to build, educate, and enhance whenever possible.
Resources on EMCPs
Review our comprehensive guide to the nine elements, "Compliance Guidelines: How to Develop an Effective Export Management and Compliance Program and Manual." This extensive book offers an in-depth explanation on the nine elements and how they relate to the requirements set in the Export Administration Regulations. Scattered throughout the book are examples, templates, charts, figures, and illustrations to assist you in drafting your own Export Management and Compliance Manual.
Make sure to utilize our "Audit Module: Self-Assessment Tool." This short booklet provides a checklist of your procedures against all nine elements and helps you assess your overall program and enhance specific procedures as necessary.

OK, these are my first pictures I have sent over since I've joined. I have looked at so many videos where people have these big rolling flames going across there dome. When I try this the floor temp gets way to hot and the bottoms of my pizza will burn to quick. Any one have any suggestions how I can get the flame larger without burning the pizza?
The only reason you need a fire is for light and continuous operation if it is fully fired. For 1-8 pizzas, you don't need any fire at all.
Says the man who fires that sucker for 10 hours. Have you ever tried it?
the dome will drop from 999F to 850 pretty quick, then I will add more wood to the oven and the hearth will heat up to over 800F real quick. next time I will try to let it settle down alot more before try to use it.
Don't know how to enlarge picture, but here it is in all its glory

We just wrapped up the ALA TechSource Workshop Choosing an E-Book Platform that Works for Your K12 Library with Buffy Hamilton. The slides from the event, which contain some fantastic resources, are posted below.
Greg Notess was inspired to write Screencasting for Libraries after presenting workshops on the topic. Workshops get people started, he says, but a book allows more in- depth treatment and is available for reference when it's time to review. The book features 12 implementation projects, which are linked to Greg's companion web page. At a basic level, you will learn how to use free software to make a quick step-by-step as you show a student how to use a database interface. More advanced projects get into Using commercial software like Camtasia to edit video, create call-outs or use other functions for a more polished tutorial.
