Venice Open - Archived Standings
Galaxy Lanes - Venice, Fla., Aug 5-9, 1983
Two In A Row For Mt. St. Marshall
"It's like the old Marshall Holman again, when I get going I just erupt.. It's like Mt. St. Marshall, I guess," Holman mused after winning his second straight championship in the $100,000 Venice (Fla.) Open. Holman fulfilled a prophecy he made a week earlier in Austin, Texas when he said, "I'm so loose right now I'll probably win another title or two in a very short time." He did just that, firing a 290 in the championship game to oust top qualifier Kent Wagner, who had a 224. Wagner never had a chance as Holman made a solid eight-pin spare in the first frame and then closed with 11 strikes. The championship round got under way with Steve Wunderlich defeating Joe Hutchinson, 264-188, and then toppling George Pappas, 249-200. Wunderlich then ran Into Holman, who knocked him out of the running, 256-234, earning Holman the shot at his second straight title and career win No. 16. CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND
PLAYOFF RESULTS - Wunderlich defeated Hutchinson, 264-188; Wunderlich defeated Pappas, 249-200; Holman defeated Wunderlich, 256-234; and in the championship game, Holman defeated Wagner, 290-224. 42-GAME TOTALS OTHER CASHERS * - Match play alternate. ** - TV finals alternate. 18-game qualifying leader-Dave Husted, 4,201. 24th place - Ray Shackelford, 3,955. # - Tom Mabrie and Kent Wagner rolled 300 games. PRO-AM CASHERS ($50 each) Steve Wunderlich, Jay Robinson, Brian Voss, Roger Haskell, Bob Handley, Avery LeBlanc ($25), Steve Lewis ($25). |

New Wrangler Style VS old style
My question to all you jeep lovers is what would you rather have a new body style jeep or the original style jeeps. To me the new jeeps ride to smooth...i know that sounds dumb but I think it takes away from what Jeeps are and the wide stance just not feeling it so I think ill stick with my 99 sport
I don't know if we can call a TJ Old School, but I'd rather have a TJ than a JK... at least for now. I don't hate the JK's at all, they're growing on me. I'm impressed w/ how nice the interior is and would like to have a 6 spd.
I remember the old YJ vs TJ polls back in 97, lol. |
I feel ya i should have said JK VS TJ but to me the JK is just too big of a stance and smooth maybe its just cause im so use to the TJ. One thing is though im diggin the 4 door im sick of all my friends complaining of trying to squeeze through my seat...they have 2 options by my a 4 door jk or loose weight
yj :punk:
I don't want to come off as putting the JK's down, They are growing on me. And they are a jeep. But they are a jeep for the so called "yuppies" if that's what there still called. Mostly soccer mom's. The majority of the people who buy them do not intend to do any off roading what-so-ever. Not like the one's on this forum who have JK's. Unfortunately they are the minority. As for TJ's i can't consider them "old school" CJ's are old school. As for my 2000 TJ, she rides real smooth.
I don't know about anyone else, but I get the no-wave from the JK owners quite often.
I may have voted wrong, I like the style of my TJ so I don't know if that is considered new or old school. If I were to buy new I would lean toward a Rubicon even though it is my daily driver.:)
LOL. I remember when YJs were "yuppie" Jeeps and all real men drove CJs. I guess it's the same story every time a new model comes out. I personally prefer the TJ to the JK at this moment...but I've seen some sweet JKs with 35s that could change my opinion on that matter...especially that lifted 4 door JK that I see in magazine ads every month.
TRUE that!
I voted for the TJ but I like my YJ better. My TJ ride is too mushy compared to my old YJ.
cj and yj.
i was in the game in the 90s when the tj came out, and it was the same story. the tj owners were all yuppies, and clueless. i was just talking to a buddy that i wheel with and no one wheeled tj's cuz they were too nice. now i can't believe the jk interior, way too nice to me. but look at it now, this board is mostly tj's, and tj's are probably the largest in number on the trails right now. |
My neighbor just bought a brand new sahara JK all black, it is sweet. I want his painted fender flares, lol. He had a YJ for years and he waves at me every morning. I think once it's lifted it will look awesome.
I like jeeps.
I prefer the TJ, but with kids in my immediate future, I could see the advantage of the 4 door JK. I will probably get both at some point.
I'll chime in. I drove CJ-5s all through the eighties and early ninties. You know, Levi edition, big lift, dual front shocks, 35" Gumbo Mudders,no spare, side turnout pipes,304 with a Holly dual carb. I never did warm up to the rectangular headlights on the YJ. I drove lifted Cherokees up until this past February when I got an '04 Wrangler X. It's great except for the 3" body lift. I gotta fix that situation. Anyhoos, I pick my TJ as my favorite style maybe 'cause I'm 45 and used to some luxeries such as AC and auto tranny. Now I feel like I'm back in the saddle!
If by old school you mean one of these vs the new JK.. then my vote is old school.
http://www.willys-mb.co.uk/images/dfr/jeep-1.jpg |
Wow. Eye candy.
i like the tj waaay better. the jk's have too many creature comforts for me. when i ride in a wrangler i don't want it to look or feel like a luxury vehicle. in all honesty i'd much rather a cj.
I understand the ones who like the cjs more that the tj or jk but to me the JK is way diffrent from any other model as some has already posted the JK ride of which is like a cadillac and a lil bigger stance. to me the TJ and down are true jeeps but yes some will say im wrong the JK will grow on almost everyone i do love the 4 door which will be nice for a family but im single so im stickin with my TJ
I agree the JK is growing on me, but any Jeep before 2007 is better to me.
0lllllll0 not []lllllll[] (lol just busting chops) |
I like the longer wheelbase but not the width of the JK. I also like the longer CA's and the fact that it takes less lift to accommodate the same tire. There are a number of other things also.
But I like my TJ it works fine. |
I wish my dash was flat and had round gauges.
I like all the Jeeps, I see myslef in a 4 door JK down the road
I love em all. From the OLD OLD school CJ-2 to the JK The pictures of the JK's in Quadratec are badass, you can make them look great. I love my 02, owned it since new and will never get rid of it. We looked at JK's before we bought our 09 Dodge Journey. For the family comfort the Journey won out. But I could see adding a JK to the garage a few years down the road, and making the TJ the ultimate project vehicle.

I have decided to title my little blogs, "Brandi's Basement." Why might you ask? Well my name's Brandi and in case you didn't know, the ever-so-cool Teen Dept. is located in the basement.
I just finished a great book this morning. It would have to be a great book cause it's rarely on the shelves. The book is Sickened by Julie Gregory. This is an auobiography about Julie, a survivor of Munchausen by Proxy. Munchausen by proxy is a disorder in which a guardian creates illnesses for the child to suffer from because of their own mental problems. This disorder is so powerful, that the doctors in this book believed that an 11-year-old girl had a very serious heart condition.
This book tackles a topic that few people are familiar with. Sickened is a book on the Abraham Lincoln award list this year.
See if the book is available, or place a request.
Check it and other Lincoln award books out next time you're in the Teen area.
See ya soon!

We're returning today to the test trilogy of crazily cheap 32in TV we kicked off a couple of weeks back with the Kogan 32XXXYA, wrapping the three-way comparison up with the AD32UMMB from Taiwanese brand Hannspree. And really there's only one question to ask of this set: can it possibly challenge the mighty Finlux 32F8030-T for the current budget TV throne?
It gets off to a promising start, at any rate, as its measly £200 asking price makes it a cool £100 cheaper than the Finlux. It also looks sleeker than its Finlux rival, thanks to its employment of a much more slender black bezel that wouldn't look out of place wrapped around a much more expensive TV.
The set's slenderness does not extend, it must be said, to the AD32UMMB's rear, which sticks out far more than those of most more 'premium' TVs. But as we often point out, under normal circumstances you don't generally spend much time looking at a TV's backside!
The AD32UMMB's connections are adequate for such a cheap TV. Three HDMIs get the ball rolling, while multimedia fans can use a USB port to play back video, photo and music files or connect a PC via a provided D-Sub PC port. The USB can also be used for timeshifting programmes from the built-in tuner. However, please note that the set doesn't carry any network support, be it Wi-Fi or wired, so there's no DLNA streaming or online features (unlike the Finlux model).
More alarmingly, the lack of any network support also alerts us to the fact that the AD32UMMB doesn't have an HD tuner; it's standard def Freeview only. Actually, the missing LAN support isn't the only clue to there being no Freeview HD tuner, for the screen also turns out not to have a full HD pixel count. Instead it's just 1366x768.
This might alarm some, and it's certainly not ideal. However, we have seen 1366x768 screens deliver plenty of clarity and detail before, and the slight reduction in resolution versus full HD screens is likely to be less noticeable on a relatively small screen like this 32in one.
The remote control you get with the AD32UMMB is pretty uninspiring. It's plasticky and lightweight, and its layout is too bog-standard to be really helpful. The best that can be said about it is that its buttons are passably responsive, enabling it to interface quite satisfactorily with the surprisingly serious-looking onscreen menus.
In truth there aren't as many interesting features within these menus as it initially looks like there's going to be. For instance, the 'Advanced Video' submenu actually only contains noise reduction and light sensor options, not the colour and gamma fine tuning systems we might have hoped for. The only useful trick, really, aside from the aforementioned noise reduction system, is the facility to turn on or off an active backlight system. Not all budget TVs have one of these latter features, but they're often invaluable when it comes to producing a convincing black level response.

Delhi crushes Waterford, 40-6; Hawks prepare for undefeated Gustine
There's no way the visiting Golden Valley Cougars football team was going to upset the Pitman [5-3, 2-1] High Pride this past Friday in the Pride's homecoming contest.
Pitman High's varsity soccer team found it tough to find the back of the net in the first half of Tuesday's penultimate Central California Conference contest of the season when they met Merced for the third time this season.
The Central California Conference Most Valuable Player Taylor Beckwith is not done with her final year with Pitman High golf just yet.
Pitman varsity volleyball head coach Kristen Pontes-Christian, who led the Pride to a 44-2 overall record and the State Championship just a year ago, had been sidelined for the past several weeks-but the Section champion coach is back.
The visitors' stands erupted for the Hilmar Yellowjackets after Friday night's contest ended between Hilmar and Hughson High in what turned out to be one of the most exciting Trans Valley League games of the season, coming down to the final play.
Turlock High celebrated a milestone victory Friday night that marked the program's 500th win in school history, spanning 97 years, as the Bulldogs defeated the Atwater Falcons on the road, 30-7.
Tuesday marked the start of the Central California Conference singles tournament for Pitman and Turlock, which each sent their top three players to Golden Valley High for one final singles showdown.
Two of the top 10 high school varsity boys soccer teams from the same conference met on the pitch on Tuesday afternoon for a Central California Conference clash.
Barring a highly unlikely upset in Atwater this Friday night, and you never say never when it comes to any contest in the Central California Conference, the Turlock High football team will record the 500th victory in the history of the Bulldogs' program.
Turlock High's varsity volleyball squad was quick to move past their dismal showing at a Stockton tournament over the weekend to bring their 'A' game to Monday's league contest against Golden Valley.
A long standing rivalry between the Hilmar Yellowjackets and the Escalon Cougars brought an incredible matchup to McSweeney Field Friday night.
A second half comeback was Pitman's plan after the Pride turned the ball over three times in Friday's home league game against two-time Central California Conference champion Merced High.
Turlock High's varsity boys water polo team has been on a winning streak the last several weeks, surging to a 6-1 Central California Conference record after defeating Golden Valley and Buhach Colony in back-to-back crucial wins.
The Turlock High girls water polo team fired up the offensive attack and continued their streak of 10-plus goals scored after Thursday's Central California Conference, 10-5, win over Buhach Colony.

It's not like Chile is the first nation to put off the decision of what digital television standard it will adopt, but rather than nailing something down now, it's decided to ponder for a few more months. According to spokesman Francisco Vidal, Chile will be holding off until March before it chooses the Japanese, European or American standard, and he also noted that "the president (Michelle Bachelet) had requested more studies, of a technical nature," in order to make the best call. 'Course, we could hear this same 'ole song / dance in March, too, but we'll take Mr. Vidal's word on it for now.

Hello, I do not understand sets at all. Can somebody please explain or give notes to me.
Thanks so much
Happy new year
A set is a well defined collection of objects e.g. The set of whole numbers between 1and 5 is a well defined set but the set of good actors is not. Different people will give different answers.
Two sets are equal is they contain the exact same elements.
If E= { the first five letters in the alphabet} then:
d is an element of E but y is not an element of E.
The set from which all others are being considered is called the universal set, U.
If every element of set E is also an element of set F then E is said to be a subset of F.
The union of two sets is found by putting together in a new set all the elements of E and F without repeating an element.
The intersection of two sets E and F is the set of elements found in both E and F.
The complement of set E is the set of elements in the universal set U which are not in E. It is written as E'.
The book of formulae and tables has some set symbols.
Thank you so much
It helped a lot

Xizhi grew quickly during the 1980s and 1990s, and is home to many of Taiwan's major electronics companies, such as Acer, Garmin (Asia), Coiler, Lanner Electronics and DFI.
Origins of its Name[edit]
The district's old name Tsui-tng-ka (Chinese: 水返腳; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Chúi-tńg-kha; literally: "water returning foot") refers to the fact that the tide from the Keelung River stops at Xizhi and goes back to the sea. During Japanese rule, the place name was changed to Shiodome (汐止?, literally "end of tides") and was under Shichisei District, Taihoku Prefecture. This is the source of the current name.
In the past, the area was the Kypanas (Basay: Kippanas) locality (峰仔峙社; Phang-á-sī-siā)[2] of the Ketagalan Taiwanese aborigines.
In 1758, Han immigrants near the area built a settlement (峰仔峙庄; Phang-á-sī-chng).
In 1920, during the Japanese rule, the place was organized as Shiodome Town, Shichisei District, Taihoku Prefecture.
After the handover of Taiwan from Japan to the Republic of China, Xizhi was established as an urban township of Taipei County. It was then upgraded to county-controlled city on 1 July 1999. On 25 December 2010, it was changed to a district when Taipei County was changed to New Taipei City.
Geography and Location[edit]
Xizhi is located in the Keelung River valley between Taipei and Keelung, which is an important transportation corridor. The old Jukando Highway and Jukan Railway Line (縱貫線?) passed through here during the Japanese period. Currently both north-south freeways (National Highway 1 and National Highway 3) as well as the Western Line railroad pass through Xizhi.
A Taipei Metro (Taipei Rapid Transit System) station is planned for Xizhi.[3]
Xizhi suffered from periodic flooding due to typhoons, before a levee was completed along the Keelung River in 2002.
Many of Taiwan's electronics companies are headquartered in Xizhi, such as:
- Acer Group, an international computer company[4][5]
- Coiler Corporation, a telecommunications company[6]
- Lanner Electronics Inc., a company making computer parts, network appliance platforms, and motherboards[7]
- DFI (Diamond Flower Inc.), a company making computer motherboards[8]
Garmin's largest operating subsidiary, Garmin (Asia) Corporation, has its main office in Xizhi District.[9]
Matsusei, a Taiwanese supermarket chain, also has its headquarters in Xizhi.[10][11]
U-Town,a commerce center with multiple functions, such as entertainment, business, and dining areas, is being built by Farglory Group (遠雄企業), and will be completed the entire construction ideally by the end of 2014.[12] It will be located in one of the most convenient and centralized areas of the whole Xizhi District once the entire building is full built. Around U-Town, there are hypermarkets, such as Carrefour and Costco, international computer companies, such as Acer, and retailer of consumer electronics and entertainment software, such as TK3C. There will be 1482 units in total within 37 stories along with underground 7 floors.[13][14] Among those units, B1 will be designed as public food court, 1F~3F will be international designers branding department store, 4F will be fitness center. The remaining floors will also include, lobby, Farglory Museum, spa, swimming pool, business meeting rooms and offices.[15]

Is this CGI search secure?by tachyon (Chancellor) |
on Jul 23, 2001 at 07:30 UTC ( #98905=perlquestion: print w/replies, xml ) | Need Help?? |
tachyon has asked for the
wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
If you wish to allow users to enter a search term and use Perl's internal grep function to search an index file is this script a secure way to do it? By using quotemeta on the user input I can not see how you can hack this, even though the untainting of the user search term is global to allow searching for strings other than pure alphanumberic. I am worried about the interpolation into the grep. Can anyone see security holes? cheers tachyon s&&rsenoyhcatreve&&&s&n.+t&"$'$`$\"$\&"&ee&&y&srve&&d&&print

Daintree National Park is located in Queensland, Australia. The park is split into two areas, the first being Mossman Gorge, which is located further inland, and the second being Cape Tribulation, which abuts the Coral Sea. Encompassing approximately 138,320 acres (560 sq km), Daintree National Park has been given special status as a Wet Tropics World Heritage Area since 1988. Considered the Eastern Kuku Yalanji Aborigines' traditional country, the populace works under an agreement with Queensland to manage and protect the park.
There is a wide variety of terrain in Daintree National Park. The area has low mountains that are covered by lush rainforests as well as several beaches where people can experience the Coral Sea, which is home to the Great Barrier Reef. Swimming at the beach generally is discouraged, however, as caution signs warn of the abundance of stinging jellyfish in the water. Additionally, in the Mossman Gorge section of the park, there are rivers and creeks that form deep gorges.
Visitors also can camp in Daintree National Park, but only in the Cape Tribulation section. Specifically, the Noah Beach campground has 15 sites that are located underneath a rainforest canopy and about 160 feet (48.8 m) from the sea. The campsites can be reserved in advance, and the campground has water, but it should be treated before it is consumed. Visitors who do not want to camp can find lodging outside of the park as well.
Hiking is one of the primary activities in Daintree National Park. There are several trails in each section of the park, allowing visitors to see the animals, plants, and geology of the area. For example, there is a boardwalk, taking visitors through the rainforest. There is also a suspension bridge, allowing visitors to get a bird's eye view of the Rex Creek below.
Guided or self-guided tours are available for visitors as well. The tours typically are available via four-wheel drive vehicles or by boat. Often, the boat tours float down the Daintree River, giving visitors the opportunity to look for crocodiles and other animals.
Many different varieties of plants, animals, and birds can be found in Daintree National Park. For example, there are tree kangaroos, cassowaries, crocodiles, and an animal similar to a cat called a spotted-tailed quoll. There is also a giant white-tailed rat that grows to about 15 inches (38.1 cm) in length.
Several species of rare primitive plants can be found in Daintree National Park as well. These plants include the Noahdendron, or Noahdendron nicholasii, and the Ribbonwood tree, or Idiospermum australiense. In addition, there are mangroves, stinging trees, and eucalyptus trees. People should avoid the stinging trees, as they will cause a painful stinging reaction that may require medical attention if they come in contact with human skin.

Projection: Your Partner is Not a Mirror
Projection in relationships is one of the most common reasons of abusive relationships. This is a defense mechanism of most people that they are not aware of. Projection is what other people do in order to manage and cope with their feelings.
Psychological projection is about projecting your undesirable feelings to someone else instead of dealing with it yourself. When this is done in a relationship, it becomes an abusive one.
When Projection becomes Abusive
This abusive behavior Read more [...]

Mike Tidwell, a friend, and the director of the Chesapeake Climate Action Network, has an Op-Ed for the Washington Post on Sunday titled "To really save the planet, stop going green". This is sure to provoke some debate amongst environmentalists. I agree with some points Mike makes, but I take issue with others. All in all though, I think its timing is good in that, if there was ever a good time to be an activist and get in your representative's face about taking action, that time is now.

Hackers attempt to access Canadian Government Centre for Climate Modeling and Analysis
I made a post last week about the illegally hacked e-mails from Britain's climate data centre. News broke yesterday that there has now been an attempt to hack Canada's centre. It looks like the deniers are getting desperate with a deal at Copenhagen within grasp.
"On the heels of the controversial story aboutemails and data stolen by hackers from the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia, it has now been revealed that individuals posing as network technicians recently attempted to infiltrate another climate data center operated by the Government of Canada.
According to sources at the University of Victoria, two people claiming to be network computer technicians presented themselves at the headquarters of the Canadian Centre for Climate Modeling and Analysis and tried to gain access to the data servers.
When challenged by an employee, the two individuals hastily left. The timing of this attempted break-in is very suspicious given that it occurred so closely on the heels of the release of hacked emails and data from a similar facility housed at the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia in the UK."

Vimeo -- free iPhone app for uploading, managing, editing, and viewing video
By Jim Karpen
Vimeo has long been a top site for sharing videos, and was one of the first to offer a lot of high-definition content. Two days ago Vimeo launched their Vimeo app that includes much of the functionality of the website, such that you can use your iPhone to upload, manage, edit, and view video. The app lets you capture video, combine and edit clips, and add transitions, titles, and special effects. You can add music and recordings, and set the volume level.

A lot of people grow oranges in AZ, huh? I know a few people there who do. Not so much here in Orange County though.
Chicken pot, chicken pot, chicken pot piiiieeeeeeeee!
I'm sure they plowed under all the orange trees there when all the people moved in.
the busy bee has no time for sorrow.
I used to have orange fights too!!
Downing, (my repeat ?) how would you like to be remembered by your family and friends?
Tell us about your best experience with altered substances.
Those are my two favorites too. I went to Bisbee for the first time last year. The owner of the brewery there was putting it up for sale. I had many long wistful moments wishing I could buy it as that would be what I would love to do when I grow up, but I have 4 more years of working for my kids before I can do what I want with my life.
Have you ever done Whiskey Row in Prescott? What were your thoughts?
But alcohol is mind altering. Tell us your best drunk story?
the busy bee has no time for sorrow.
What would your ideal retirement entail?
lol, true.
As usual, it involves a girl. :P
I was 22, I think. I went out with friends to see a band play at Long Wong's in Tempe. They wanted to leave after a few songs, but I wanted to stay. They left to go to another bar, and I told them I would catch up with them later.
I ended up talking with this really interesting girl. She wasn't what I would describe as cute, but she was very unique looking. Hair was up, skirt was long, boots, interesting eye make-up.
I happened to know one of the bar girls there fairly well, so I started hooking us both up with long island ice teas. Very potent, too. We both got pretty drunk over the next hour or so, downing glass after glass. We decided to get out of there and work our way down to the other bar.
On the way, she begins to tell me more about herself. That's when things got...strange. Turns out, she's a runaway. She's only 18. She wants to know if I can help her out with money. I'm pretty shit faced, so I think this is a joke. I start to laugh. She then proceeds to get pissed, and starts yelling, " Get away from me! Let go of me! Stop Stop!!" Again, I start laughing. I can't help it! The situation is insane.
Some dudes run over, and ask what is going on. I'm standing there, trying to shake the cobwebs out while she proceeds to tell them that I followed her out of the bar, and that I wouldn't leave her alone. They start to move over to where I am, and I just take off. Running as fast as I can.
Now, if any of you have tried to run whilst drunk, it can be a bit difficult. I am being chased by three frat dudes down Mill Avenue in Tempe, trying to dodge the masses. Well, I don't dodge too well in that state. I trip and I run right into...
A cop. A bicycle cop.
The cop picks me up off the ground, and can tell immediately that I am severly intoxicated. He asks me what's going on, as the three guys come running up. They don't stop. They keep running by me and the cop. He asks if those guys were chasing me, and I said no. He checks my ID, says that I have had enough and I need to go home.
Crisis averted!
Moral of the story...don't let your friends leave you alone to talk to underage runaways.
Wow, talk about a close call on a number of fronts! The moral is sage advice though.
the busy bee has no time for sorrow.
What is your favorite aspect of music?
What is your favorite art form other then music and why? Or feel free to talk about as many as you please if that works better.
I would say for me it is the emotional release. Whether I am playing music, or listening.
I enjoy paintings. I'm more into the classical style, renaissance to impressionist. My favorite "picture" (actually a mural) is "School of Athens" by Raphael. I have a large print of it in my house. I never get tired of looking at it.
Excellent, I really like Monet and Manet's impressionist works of the Dutch countryside. Something about the windmills and sea levies in that landscape is really appealing to me.
Outside of family and kids--because thats an easy one--what would you consider your greatest individual success, or what accomplishment/action were/are you most proud of?
Alas, the Tempe Long Wong's is no more. Been replaced by an office building. It closed down about 4-5 years ago. I definitely miss it.
Food-wise, they had outstanding burgers and sandwiches. However, the best thing on the menu by far was the wings. They were perfect. Nice and hot, without sacrificing the flavor. Delic.
Well, I would definitely say my Wife and Son, but those are pretty obvious. So, I will come up with some others.
I would definitely need music. I have had a love affair with music all my life. Without it, I am truly not complete.
I would need my space, and time to myself. I am an only child, and those of you who are only children know that as much as we enjoy the social aspects of life, we definitely need our alone time.
A home. Doesn't matter how big, where is at, or any of that. Just a place to call home.
I am also thankful for having all of those things. Others would be good family and friends (past and present), good wine, my dogs (past and present), and my health.

Presentation Guidelines
Presentation Guidelines
The Undergraduate Research Committee asks that all students making a presentation at the MindExpo symposium attend the entire event, if at all possible. This will be an opportunity to support and encourage all students doing interesting, creative work. Specific guidelines for each session are given below.
You will have table space on which to place your exhibition piece. We have allotted four feet per exhibit. If you think that this will not be enough space contact the Undergraduate Research Committee.
Each oral presentation is allotted 12 minutes, plus three minutes for questions. Overhead and LCD projectors will be available, so you may use either transparencies or computer-based slide show. Check the Symposium Schedule page to find your presentation time and location.
Each person will be allotted a 48" X 35" poster board (or wall space) on which to place your poster. We will provide tacks or tape to use for mounting the poster. You may design the poster in anyway that you want, but it should at least include a title and your name somewhere at the top. One way to construct a poster is to use PowerPoint. We have created a template file that has the page dimensioned appropriately and some text areas with good font sizes suggested. Download the PowerPoint file here:
You can view an example of a poster that was actually presented at a national meeting here:
Contacting The Undergraduate Research Committee
If you have a question or see a problem with implementing the above requirements please contact the Undergraduate Research Committee chairperson, Joshua Pope: firstname.lastname@example.com

The reluctant price war over personal loan rates could be about to warm up after Tesco Bank reduced its rates for customers borrowing between £7,500 and £15,000.
At 5.7 per cent APR representative, down from 5.9 per cent, this is the lowest rate since the credit crunch took hold five years ago and is available until midnight on Monday 24 September online or over the phone.
Savings rates have been slashed by an average of 3.28 per cent as the Bank of England base rate plummeted to 0.5 per cent from 5.25 per cent following the collapse of Northern Rock in September 2007.
But personal loan rates have remained stubbornly high, according to MoneySupermarket.com. Someone borrowing £5,000 on a personal loan will now pay an average of 0.94 percentage points more than they did in 2007. Overdraft rates have also increased from 17.81 per cent in 2007 to 19.53 per cent now, so the average cost of a £1,000 overdraft has increased from £178.10 in interest over a year, to £195.30.
The most competitive rates are still reserved for applicants with a faultless credit history. Those with a less than perfect record are likely to to struggle for cheap borrowing for some time yet.
