Groundwater entering Yellowstone River, Montana
Cold groundwater gushes from a cliff face along the Yellowstone River at the town of Big Timber, Montana. Groundwater is usually much colder than the summer temperatures of temperate zone rivers, and hence cools the river water. On the August day of this image, the afternoon river temperature was 72F (22 C), whereas the spring water was 52F (11 C). In contrast, in winter, the groundwater is warmer than stream and river water, and helps keep it warm.
Warm temperatures stress trout, because they cannot get sufficient oxygen, and consequentely they reduce their feeding activities because digestion of the food requires additional oxygen (i.e. - gut cramps if you run after eating a large meal).

Love him or hate him, Justin knows how to get people talking! Take a look at his most dramatic moments of all time.
When I Was 17: Hayley Williams
Remember the "Baby" days?! Justin became insta-famous with his first album, My World 2.0, which debuted at number one on the Billboard charts. He was the youngest person to debut at the top since Stevie Wonder in 1963.
Justin got slightly out of control recently at a New York City restaurant: He peed into a mop bucket and started dissing Bill Clinton for no apparent reason. Unfortunately for Justin, the whole thing was captured on camera and the video went viral shortly after. Justin and his friends thought it would be "cooler" for him to, er, relieve himself in the mop bucket than in the bathroom. Now that's just gross!

|The product is not so bulky, the design makes it more appealling to me. its manly look and slick. I like the cut out on speaker. it doesnt cover the black screen on the side. its durable, I dropped my PB 3 times. The rubber that are located on four sides, really protects it. I just wish it came with a screen protector glass, similar to otterbox defender. Bought this baby when it was on sale for $29.99. I higly recomend it, one of a great must have accesories.
|Great Case- Ultra Security to protect your Playbook!!
User: seaki n, Apr 18, 2012
|Love this case, I have dropped my playbook several times, and my playbook was still working fine withut a scare. I like to take my playbook with me everywhere, with my phone, appreciate the front case to hide and protect the glass, but also keeps the device hidden from thieves, as I run or walk around the city.

User: Ken G, Apr 30, 2012
|Does an excellent job of protecting my Playbook. The screen cover locks into place so that it is safe and secure when carrying it around or traveling with it. Definitely worth the price. Well made.
|Great protection and design!
User: Vicki B, Apr 24, 2012
I was torn between this case and the OtterBox Defender case but went with this one for several reasons:
1) No built-in screen protector - everyone Ive met who uses the OtterBox case for PlayBook frequently has to touch or swipe the screen multiple times before the PlayBook responds. After testing their PlayBooks, in and out of the OtterBox case, it appears that the OtterBox built-in screen protector is causing the issue. I bought the ZAGG screen protector, which works flawlessly.
2) Lighter case - the Ballistic case isnt quite as heavy as the OtterBox and, as long as I remove the kickstand cover, I can still fit it into my leather PlayBook case with elastic holds at the corners.
3) Red & Black! - Im always bummed out when I see iFans and Fandroids who have hard cases in a myriad of different colors but the Blackberry cases only come in black. The Red/Black Ballistic case not only functions well but it adds a little spicy color as well!
I found two, minor down-sides to this case:
1) No covers for the ports on the bottom of the PlayBook or for the headphone jack.
2) The kickstand on the Ballistic case will only work in landscape mode. The OtterBox design will allow you to stand the PlayBook in landscape or portrait.

So i finally redeemed some Birchbox points and decided to try Boi-ing concealer since my usual was running out. It took me a while to figure out if I should get shade 01 or 02. I'm have pale olive skin and very light when I don't tan, so I decided on the 02 light/medium. When I received it I noticed it had a pink undertone as opposed to 01 light that looked yellow. I tried it and was shocked that it matched my skin exactly. It was wonderful on my dark circles and I did notice I had to layer for my acne scars. You do have to blend the edges whenever you use this and I noticed it was easier to put on when you warm up the product right in the pot. I took others advice and set it with powder and it hasn't budged or crease for hours. I am really thinking of getting the lighter shade to use as a highlight. The product is small but you really don't need much at all, I couldn't believe it. I will never go back to other concealers!5
I have suffered with extremely dark and deep undereye bags for all of my life. Genetics cursed me, I get plenty of sleep. I tried every concealer in the book. They all either settled in my creases or were too thin to even put up a fight against my dark circles.
My life changed when this concealer came in to my life, not kidding. I tried it in a sample version and was hooked. I'm on my 4th batch and still haven't found anything better. It lasts forever too. One full size boi-ing will last me upwards of 10 months and I use it every day. I apply it on top of my BB creme then finish with a powder or a pressed foundation. No primer needed for all day lasting wear either.
I would recommend getting one shade lighter than your skin tone to really make your undereyes look bright and awake.
I bought this concealer to cover dark circles under my eyes and it covers well and stays on long but my only complain is that it looks like I'm wearing makeup which I don't like. I like the natural no makeup look on my face and this doesn't do it for me but I still like the coverage and the feel of it.4
Let me start off by saying I have really dark circles. And I have a lot of food allergies, so they become darker if I eat certain foods. And of course, if I am tired or hungover... I wear concealer daily and a lot of it to cover my dark circles. This product instantly shot to my #1 concealer EVER. It covers completely and lasts all day. Its not noticeable, creamy but not creamy, and...I just can't say enough about the coverage quality. It doesn't take a ton to completely cover the darkness and it's so easy to blend in with the rest of your skin.
If you have really dark circles - TRY THIS. I will never bother trying another brand again.

trip details
Welcome to San Francisco
You'll kick off the trip by making you way to the Radisson Hotel Fisherman's Wharf, your home base for the first and last night of your journey. Once you've settled into a Standard Twin Room, you'll join your private LivingSocial Adventure Guide and fellow travelers at the hotel bar for a welcome happy hour with tapas.
Sonoma Wine Country
In the morning, you'll be whisked away to Sonoma. One of National Geographic Traveler's "Best of the World 2012," the region is home to more than 300 wineries, each marked by thousands of grape vines growing in tidy rows as far as the eye can see.
You'll sip your way through three award-winning wineries—Artesa Vineyards & Winery, St. Francis Winery & Vineyard, and Castello di Amorosa—as you explore the grape-saturated landscape.
Later, check into the Hyatt Vineyard Creek in Santa Rosa for a free night to relax. This AAA Four Diamond Award-winning hotel boasts Tuscan-inspired décor, a lavender-lined garden, and an al fresco fire pit—the perfect place for you and your tripmates to gather and swap stories.
Bodega Bay and Russian River Valley
After treating your tannin overload with a restful night of sleep, you'll travel to the Bodega Bay area and the Russian River Valley. The morning is yours to explore California's scenic side.
"Beyond the tip of the Point Reyes peninsula, the road curves around toward the coastal village of Bodega Bay, which supports a fishing fleet of around 300 boats," says Frommer's. "It's a good place to stop for lunch or a stroll. Several shops and galleries are interesting, but the best show in town—especially for kids— is at Tides Wharf, where the fishing boats dock, unload their catch, gut it, and pack it in ice."
Later, you'll tour the vineyards behind some of California's most famous labels—Kendall Jackson and Korbel, anyone? After thoroughly pampering your palate, return to the Hyatt for a low-key evening of leisure.
Muir Woods
A guided hike through legendary Muir Woods headlines the last day of your Cali education.
"One hundred fifty million years ago, ancestors of redwood and sequoia trees grew throughout the United States," says Fodor's. "Today, the Sequoia sempervirens can be found only in a narrow, cool coastal belt from Monterey to Oregon. The 550 acres of Muir Woods National Monument contain some of the most majestic redwoods in the world—some nearly 250 feet tall and 1,000 years old."
You'll trek through the damp, shady underbrush of this spectacular forest. It's salvation from the saw is a testament to the pioneering efforts of early 20th-century environmentalists and President Teddy Roosevelt himself. Look carefully and you may find rays of sunlight penetrating the dense canopy to reach the misty forest floor.
Later, your group will gather back at the Radisson to enjoy some free time in the streets of San Francisco before an optional farewell dinner on Pier 39 at Fisherman's Wharf.
Today marks the end of your Bay Area adventuring. No matter how you decide to get home, you'll take a bit of NorCal cool along with you.

ARSC T3E Users' Newsletter 120, May 30, 1997
Purging of T3E core/mppcore files
During test time on June 10, ARSC will launch a daily cron job to delete core and mppcore files which have not been accessed in seven or more days from within user directories on yukon's /u1 and /u2 disks. The seven day /tmp purger has been running on yukon for a week now, and, as it deletes every file older than seven days on /tmp , removes old core and mppcore files as well. To save important core files on /u1 and /u2 (as if there were a lot of these hanging around!) you can simply rename them.
Handling Premature PE Exits on T3D/E
If we run the following code on 4 processors on the T3D what do you think will happen? On the T3E?
ccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc program prog implicit none integer, parameter :: maxproc = 256 include "mpp/shmem.fh" ! local identity integer my_pe integer num_pe integer shmem_my_pe, shmem_n_pes integer mproc ! processor to stop integer hproc ! find out how many processors num_pe = shmem_n_pes() ! which one am i? my_pe = shmem_my_pe() write(6,*) ' pe ',my_pe,' of ',num_pe hproc=2 if(my_pe.eq.hproc) then write(6,*) ' processor ',hproc,' stopping ' stop endif write(6,*) ' pe ',my_pe,' of ',num_pe,' wait on barrier ' call barrier() end ccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc
Here is the output from a run on the ARSC T3D:
c-denali<121> ./prog -npes 4 pe 3 of 4 pe 0 of 4 pe 3 of 4 wait on barrier pe 0 of 4 wait on barrier pe 2 of 4 pe 1 of 4 processor 2 stopping pe 1 of 4 wait on barrier STOP (PE 2) executed at line 39 in Fortran routine 'PROG'
At this point, the job will wait until the user's resources are consumed and then be terminated by the system, occupying the four PEs all the while.
Here is the output from a run on the ARSC T3E:
yukon% mpprun -n 4 ./prog pe 1 of 4 pe 0 of 4 pe 1 of 4 wait on barrier pe 3 of 4 pe 2 of 4 pe 0 of 4 wait on barrier pe 3 of 4 wait on barrier processor 2 stopping STOP (PE 2) executed at line 39 in Fortran routine 'PROG' FATAL ERROR IN BARRIER: User deadlock detected. Number of PEs that have exited: 1 Number of PEs waiting for barriers: 3 Total PEs: 4 Status of each PE: PE 0 is waiting for a hardware barrier PE 1 is waiting for a hardware barrier PE 2 has exited PE 3 is waiting for a hardware barrier SIGNAL: Abort ( from process 7959 ) Beginning of Traceback (PE 3): Interrupt at address 0x800032130 in routine '_lwp_kill'. Called from line 30 (address 0x800031930) in routine 'raise'. Called from line 125 (address 0x800009784) in routine 'abort'. Called from line 321 (address 0x8000c5c20) in routine '_sma_register_blocked_pe'. Called from line 80 (address 0x8000c52e8) in routine '_sma_deadlock_wait'. Called from line 111 (address 0x8000c63c0) in routine 'barrier'. Called from line 43 (address 0x80000129c) in routine 'PROG'. Called from line 433 (address 0x800000b3c) in routine '$START$'. End of Traceback. Abort (core dumped) yukon%
The T3E handles the situation much better than the T3D. Naturally, the programmer should not have an exit or stop statement which doesn't perform a global syncronisation. A more realistic situation is whereeach processor might be reading from a different file and one processor encounters an error and stop's , or each is malloc'ing and one runs out of memory and stop's , and the programmer has done a poor job of exception handling. (In the case of the file read problem, Fortran provides an easy solution. Stay tuned...)
cache_bypass and shmem_put
At the CUG, Jeff Brooks mentioned a few features of the v3.0 f90 T3E compiler (see last week's newsletter), one of which is a compiler directive to bypass the cache, thus using the e-registers for memory transfers. For example:
!dir$ cache_bypass c,a do i=1,n c(i) = a(i) enddo
This directive is not available in v2 f90, but we can test the effect by using shmem_put on the same PE. The following command has the same effect as the above loop:
shmem_put (c, a, n, mype)
This is Cray-specific code, of course, but if you are using shmem routines anyway, and can't wait for f90 v3.0, it might be worth it. The benefit increases with the volume of data being copied, but in a simple test run on the T3E, shmem_put was faster than a loop by up to 400%. The same test suggests that on the T3D you should stick with loops and array operations. Here's the test code followed by sample output:
cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc program prog implicit none integer, parameter::SZ=1000000 real c(SZ), a(SZ) integer i, t1, t2, t3, t4, t5, t6 integer irtc, ierr, index, iclktck, my_pe, shmem_my_pe integer copycnt, copysz ! Get machine clock ticks per second call pxfconst ('CLK_TCK',index,ierr) call pxfsysconf (index, iclktck, ierr) ! Get my pe my_pe = shmem_my_pe() do copycnt=1,6 copysz=10**copycnt c = 1 ! copy arrays using shmem_put. a = 0 t1 = irtc () call shmem_put (a, c, copysz, my_pe) t2 = irtc () call dummy (a, c) ! Verify copy completed. do i=copysz,1,-1 if (c(i) .NE. a(i)) stop "copy failed" enddo ! copy arrays using f90 array operation a = 0 t3 = irtc () a(1:copysz) = c(1:copysz) t4 = irtc () call dummy (a, c) ! copy arrays using loop a = 0 t5 = irtc () do i=1,copysz a(i) = c(i) enddo t6 = irtc () call dummy (a, c) write (6,'("Copying ", i8, " words. Words per sec:")') copysz write (6,'("shmem_put ",f12.0)') copysz/((t2-t1)/real(iclktck)) write (6,'("array op ",f12.0)') copysz/((t4-t3)/real(iclktck)) write (6,'("loop ",f12.0)') copysz/((t6-t5)/real(iclktck)) write (6,*) enddo end subroutine dummy end cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc
Here is output from this code on the T3E:
yukon$ mpprun -n1 ./a.out Copying 10 words. Words per sec: shmem_put 1143729. array op 3064351. loop 2909796. Copying 100 words. Words per sec: shmem_put 8498584. array op 7767996. loop 8136697.

At 100 array elements (or so) the cache_bypass/shmem_put/e-register method surpasses the loop and array operation methods, and never looks back.
The best rate of about 44 Mwords/sec translates to about 355 Mbytes/sec, surpassing the best shmem inter-PE bandwidth of about 330 Mbytes/sec we obtained in earlier bandwidth tests and printed in newsletter 117 . These rates fluctuate slightly, on the order of a percent, from run to run.
Here is output from this code on the T3D:

Quick-Tip Q & A
A: {{ Is diamond a good conductor (of heat? of electricity?). How about silicon? }} Diamond has nice properties for hardware engineers. It is a fantastic conductor of heat but an electric insulator. A speaker at the CUG described shrinking a 4 processor 1 Gbyte J90's weight by 83% and volume by 80% for an embedded application. Among other things, they used a substrate of synthetic diamond on the boards to aid heat dispersion. They also used a coolant atomizer to directly spray them. The coolant phase change keeps the boards at essentially constant temperature without the bulk of chillers. The vapor is reclaimed into liquid via a simple radiator . How about silicon? As an aside, ARSC staff has a tradition of buying interesting little items for each other whenever we are on vacation or a business trip (and think of it). Dale Clark returned from Silicon Valley with pieces of silicon for everyone. They look like shiny metallic chunks of coal, which makes sense, as Si is in the same valence group as C . Silicon, as we all know, is a semi-conductor. Q: On the T3E, how can you limit the size of core files?

Thailand, Malaysia, and Vietnam had vibrant blogospheres--until the crackdowns. By Shawn W. Crispin
Bangkok, September 24, 2012--The Committee to Protect Journalists condemns the harsh prison sentences handed down today to three prominent Vietnamese online journalists convicted of anti-state charges. In a widening crackdown on press and Internet freedoms, Vietnamese courts have sentenced six journalists and bloggers to prison in the last five weeks.
Vietnamese officials are stepping up repression of old and new media even as they promote an image of an open, globalized economy. Intense surveillance and imprisonment of critical journalists, coupled with increasingly restrictive laws, are choking the flow of information. A CPJ special report by Shawn W. Crispin
New York, April 16, 2012--Vietnamese authorities have brought anti-government charges against three journalists who have languished in prison for several months, news reports said on Sunday.
Bangkok, July 11, 2011--Authorities must stop harassing journalists reporting on public demonstrations in Vietnam, the Committee to Protect Journalists said today. On Sunday, police detained and interrogated three reporters who were covering anti-China protests in Hanoi where around a dozen demonstrators were arrested.
New York, October 22, 2010--CPJ is concerned by Vietnamese authorities' recent crackdown against several bloggers and one print journalist.
Do you believe the free flow of information must be protected? Sign the #RightToReport petition and demand that President Obama immediately:
1. Issue a presidential policy directive prohibiting the hacking and surveillance of journalists and media organizations.
2. Limit aggressive prosecutions that ensnare journalists and intimidate whistleblowers.
3. Prevent the harassment of journalists at the U.S. border.
Or click here to see the full petition, and join leading journalists like Christiane Amanpour, The Guardian's Alan Rusbridger, Editor of the AP Kathleen Carroll, and Arianna Huffington in signing on.

--------no idea how my msg disappeared and only my name came through.....feel like a "dork" Thanks for all your hard work, with this info I may just be able to put together a few colors that feel great together.Originally Posted by skjquiltnutOriginally Posted by tkhooperI have a few more minutes.
A nice addition to the red and green would be one or more of the neutrals. Now so far we have one cool and one warm color so the red is going to have the pop factor. If white is added it will become the pop factor. But if black is added the red will continue to dominate the color scheme. And again if a red print has a white background it will take center stage. But if you add a green with a white background it's going to come in conflict with the red and they will fight for dominance. So if those are your color choices placement is going to become incredible important.
Thanks for your effort, energy and knowledge. Color will be so much easier from now on.
The lesson here is constantly pay attention to the value of your colors/fabrics.
Triad - I think we have all seen primary color quilts done for children they are bright and charming and eye catching. But triads can also be busy and fight with one another. There will always be two colors on the same "side" of the color wheel. So you will either have two warm colors (dominate) or two cool colors (submissive). A neutral will "control" this color combination and help make it into the color scheme that will pop. If you have two warm colors and choose White that will become the dominate color and will calm down the yellows and reds. If you have two cool colors and choose black or brown then your warm color will really dominate while the blue and green will blend with the neutral.
Tetrad - This one is fun lets say you choose yellow and purple as your complementary colors. You won't use either of those colors. Your color palette will consist of orange and green, blue and red. Here the orange and red will dominate and the green and blue will be submissive in the color scheme. Varing the value of the colors in your fabric choice will enhance the wow factor but placement of the different colors requires very close attention.
Analogic - This is one of my favorites. I think it can make some very elegant quilts. With three colors next to each other you can have Yellow, Orange, Red combinations where all the colors are dominate with yellow being the "lightest" value and thus taking the main stage. With red being the darkest and thus falling to the background color. A large focus pint with these colors can make some fantastic medalion quilts. The addition of neutrals can definitely add drama and impact.
Accented analogic - 4 colors with a complementary color as a part of the mix can make for just about any combination you would like. Add neutrals and the sky is the limit. Just watch out that it doesn't become chaotic.
I'll try and look up any questions that you have and get you answers. I hope this has helped.

New Beek here. Due to the crappy cold rainy weather, we've only been able to do a 72 hour inspection on our two new hives until today, at the two week mark. During that 14 day period, we only had a couple days of sunshine, and only a couple where the temp got above 55º or so. So I did a hive inspection today on both. No smoke, but suited up. They were very docile I think. When I got into the first 5 frames and pull them I do see some cells capped with white tops, flat. Some cells with clear liquid, pollen in cells. I did not see what I would think were eggs, but I did see other bees with heads down in some other cells. Frames appeared loaded with bees on both sides so it was hard to see much unless I held it and waited for things to move around. I tried to keep the hives open for no more than 15 minutes or so. Temp today at near 56º and sunshine.
QUESTIONS: There was comb built across two of the frames, holding them together, and another clump of comb that was not within the confines of the frame. I took my tool and cut these off, and tried to clean up the areas. Would this have been what is called "Burr comb" and did I do right by removing it?
Will the bees take that comb I removed and re-cycle it into the hive if I leave it with them?
The capped cells as I mentioned were white looking. What I've read is that brood cells when capped look like brown paper bag color. My wife did take photos of what we saw, (none available right now) but any available
information or knowledge would be most appreciated. I might be able to post some pics later.
Now that we know things are 'progressing' with these colonies, when should the next inspection take place? When a hive is opened up like this, what keeps the queen from just flying away? Is it because she's always busy laying?
Thanks in advance

Mara Stern '17 will miss the four seasons she experienced at Guilford, but she gets to take her passion — standing up for children — with her.
The Board of Trustees at Guilford College has approved a tuition freeze for the 2016-17 academic year.
Philosophers seek to understand the fundamental nature of ourselves and the world around us. We pursue questions concerning ethics, social policies and norms, the nature and limits of knowledge and the character of the mind. Our work often begins with reflection on every day experience and involves close interpretation and analysis of philosophical texts, primarily from the western tradition. We consider the entire range of human inquiry and cultural expression, including the natural and social sciences, arts, business and policy studies and the humanities. Because philosophy intersects with so many disciplines and intellectual pursuits, it lends itself well to double-majoring and enriches interdisciplinary study.
Philosophical inquiry requires, and enables students to develop, a wide range of skills: reasoning, listening and reading both charitably and critically, writing and speaking clearly, engaging multiple perspectives and analyzing complex problems. These skills, along with the enhanced awareness and understanding that philosophical inquiry enables students to develop, are foundational to many forms of intellectual endeavor and to practical and moral decision-making. Thus philosophy majors find that their study of philosophy lays a groundwork for almost any field of work or path in life they choose.
The Bachelor of Arts degree is offered in philosophy.
Philosophy strives to deepen our understanding of ourselves, others and the world around us. It aims to articulate and examine our most fundamental assumptions, raising questions and encouraging reflection about generally unnoticed aspects of our everyday lives. Philosophical inquiry involves interpretation and analysis of a rich tradition of powerful philosophical texts; intensive discussion and analysis of problems, questions and theories that emerge from those texts; and probing reflection on everyday experience, human practices and the entire range of human knowledge and study.
Philosophical inquiry requires, and enables students to develop, a wide range of skills, including reasoning, interpretative and critical reading, clarity in written and spoken expression, synthesis and analysis of information, problem solving and appreciation of different perspectives. These skills, along with the enhanced awareness that philosophy enables us to develop, are foundational to most forms of intellectual endeavor, practical decision-making and moral questioning. Thus philosophical training and reflection lay groundwork for any path one may choose in life.
Given the nature of philosophy, combining a philosophy major with a second major in the humanities, the natural or social sciences, the arts or business and policy is an exciting and natural option, with benefit to both the breadth and the depth of a student's studies.
The major requires a minimum of 32 credit hours (eight courses).
Total credit hours required for A.B. degree in philosophy – 32 credits
The philosophy minor consists of four courses. Together, they enable students to: develop an awareness of the breadth and depth of the field of philosophy; develop the skills used in and virtues central to philosophical inquiry and debate, at least to a degree of excellence reasonable to expect of a non-major; and engage students as active participants in that inquiry and debate.
The minor in philosophy is not available to philosophy majors.
The minor requires a minimum of 16 credit hours (four courses).
Many of the questions and concerns that we call "philosophical" have arisen in nearly every age and culture. Confronting those questions and concerns has occupied some of the best minds of those ages. By spending a significant amount of time engaging with their answers, and by developing and refining your own questions and answers, you can progress toward a rich and subtle understanding of the world and your place in it.
However, in addition to providing a solid understanding of others' views, and perhaps a deeper appreciation of your own, a major in philosophy has other benefits. The serious study of philosophy can develop virtues such as courage, charity and thoughtfulness and strong skills in reasoning, analysis and oral and written communication. Such virtues and skills will serve you well in a variety of paths – not just "careers" – after Guilford. Your choice of a major should not rest solely or primarily on a prediction of how lucrative a certain major is (or isn't) likely to be. Philosophy, like most other disciplines in the humanities, can prepare you quite well for a variety of occupations, some perhaps more lucrative than others.
One very good source of information on potential career opportunities for the philosophy major can be found at the American Philosophical Association.
"That the study of philosophy is especially effective in enhancing academic skills is suggested by the fact that philosophy majors, as a group, receive exceptionally high scores on the LSAT (Law School Admissions Test), the GMAT (the admissions test for MBA programs) and the GRE (Graduate Record Exam)." Source - http://liberalarts.iupui.edu/philosophy/
Guilford philosophy majors have gone on to become philosophy professors, lawyers, bank administrators, ministers, computer programmers, social workers, academic administrators, building contractors, musicians and MBAs.
Many have pursued graduate work in a wide range of fields, including library and information science, environmental studies and political science. A number of double-majors have pursued graduate degree programs associated with their other major and report that their philosophy major enhanced their work in those programs, including psychology, science, technology and society, dramatic arts and creative writing, to name only a few.
Include U.S. Presidents Bill Clinton and Thomas Jefferson, Martin Luther King, Jr., William Bennett (former Secretary of Education), mystery writer Mary Higgins Clark, social activist and political philosopher Angela Davis, film director Peter Lynch, novelist and MacArthur prize recipients Rebecca Goldstein and David Foster Wallace, TWA CEO Carl Icahn, former Secretary of Defense and World Bank Director Robert MacNamara, TV movie critic Gene Siskel and Supreme Court Justice David Souter.

Minnesota budgets
Minnesota budgets at all levels are being developed. As responsible Minnesotans we need to take a closer look at the growth of certain segments of our government.
No doubt everyone has heard the screams from our liberals: "We need to throw more money at education. Our children deserve the very best." Would you believe Minnesota state government is one of the most corrupt of any state?
According to a research article published by the Wall Street Journal on Dec. 30, 2012, the University of Minnesota was singled out with very serious spending that contributes nothing to educating our children. I have maintained for the past two decades that there is more deadwood at the university than there is in the Chippewa National Forest!
Did you know the U of M has one administrator for every 3 1/2 students? The growth in the number of administrators over the past decade has increased 37 percent more than the number of instructors. What does that do to educate our students?
The U of M tuition and fees have more than doubled in the past decade to $13,524. That far exceeds the average at four-year public colleges of $8,655! What does that do to enhance the education of our children?
The entire Board of Regents should be fired for failing to oversee the university budgets. Also, the education committees in the state Legislature have been doing a terrible job of oversight. Our voters continue to show stupidity in whom we elect.
Do you think we could get a state law requiring all public sector unions report publicly each year? The report would include the amount of money collected from dues and fees, the amount unions contribute to election campaigns, the amount going to the union and the amount going to the U.S. Department of Education.

BATON ROUGE (AP) — Louisiana's delinquent taxpayers have just about a week left to seek a reprieve from penalties in paying their back-owed taxes through the state's amnesty program.
State officials are crossing their fingers that the applications and settlement agreements pour in over the final days, to keep the state's budget balanced.
Lawmakers anticipated collecting $200 million from the tax amnesty program this year. Without that cash, they'll face a huge hole in planned spending for health care services.
Revenue Secretary Tim Barfield wouldn't provide specific numbers about dollars already paid. But he says his department has received thousands of applications so far and the trends suggest the state will hit the needed amount for the budget.
The amnesty program runs through Nov. 22. Details are available at www.ldrtaxamnesty.com .

Campaign Urges People To Spay Female Pets
Southern New Mexico Humane Society Addresses Overcrowding
LAS CRUCES, N.M. - The Humane Society of Southern New Mexico's new campaign puts the focus on spaying female pets to help ease overcrowding at local animal shelters.
Last week, ABC-7 reported that seven out of 10 dogs and cats taken to the Animal Services Center of the Mesilla Valley are euthanized instead of adopted.
Humane Society President Frank Bryce said it is hard to say the word "spay" without also saying "neuter." Since the message has not seemed to sink in, Bryce said they have switched their approach to just focusing on the females.
"If we concentrate on spaying alone -- put our money and our effort into that -- we can reduce the number of animals coming into that shelter," Bryce said.
Bryce said the first step toward change is catching people's attention in a bold way.
Driving east along Highway 70 just past the Sonoma Ranch Boulevard exit, motorists will notice a pair of adorable faces plastered on a billboard.
Bryce said the sign -- which shows a syringe next to a puppy and kitten and reads "Born to be killed? Spay now!" -- is meant to remind people the shelter is not the problem. Instead, he said, it is irresponsible pet owners who are.
As ABC-7 reported, in the month of June, the Animal Services Center of the Mesilla Valley was overwhelmed with the highest intake yet -- more than 1,600 unwanted cats and dogs.
And Bryce said the overcrowding has skyrocketed the euthanasia rate to about 70 percent of perfectly adoptable animals.
Like it or not, Bryce said, the new idea could go a long way.
"We hope that the spay only will jog people's consciousness (that) it's the females that have the puppies and the kittens, and that's where it really needs to stop first, and as quickly as we can," Bryce said.
Bryce said the Humane Society also set aside $4,000 to reimburse any spay performed at the Animal Services Center.
The cost to spay is $35 for a dog and $25 for a cat.
If pet owners save their receipt and mail it to the Humane Society of Southern New Mexico, a full refund will be received back in the mail.

They are not as ignorant as the Philly fans. They do push the envelope now that RG is there.
Bill Loyal to the NYG logo
I'm expecting a repeat of the 1st meeting between the Skins & the G-Men. This time the ante is going to get raised with more fireworks. Griffin torched the Iggles for 4 touchdowns, and did the same against a better Cowboys defense. I expect this to be a nail-biter, with the final score being something like 33-30. I hope we are on the winning side of that score.
I think the Skins are going to get a fired up, motivated Giants team this week. I think David Wilson proves he was worth that 1st round pick and our D proves they can contain RG3. On the other hand, we need Chase to have an outstanding game with the run D. Meet that fool head on and drive him back.

@prabunLocale: Southwest
I`ve read in several BPL articles and publications that soaking clothing in Permithrin is a very effective way to repel insects. What, exactly , is the recommend way to do this (soak in a bucket then hang, spray, what?)? What brand of Permithrin is recommended and who sells it? Any help would be much appreciated.

I'm not the paragon of environmentalism, but as I understand it, this stuff kills bugs (for which I have no sympathy) but will also poison water sources if it gets wet during a stream crossing. I don't speak from authority, but suggest at least being aware of this.Feb 22, 2007 at 8:16 am #1379627

REI sells permethrin in pump spray bottles. The brand name they sell is called Sawyer. You should be able to check it out at rei.com.
To use it you hang your clothing up outdoors. They recommond spraying each side for about 30 seconds. Then you need to let the clothing dry for several hours.
Hope that helps!

I purchased a can of Sawyer spray from a local sporting goods store and sprayed my pants, shirt, hat, and socks before a JMT thru-hike several years ago. There were misquitos on the hike and the treated clothes seemed to help, based on other hikers' experiences. I also use 100% DEET when the bugs really get thick, which, in my experience, is the only thing that actually works. The combination of the two allowed me to experience a relatively bug-free trip.
I'd use it again.Feb 22, 2007 at 9:14 am #1379638

I'm pretty sure permethrin is NOT water soluble, so it will not come out in rain or creek crossings.Feb 22, 2007 at 9:41 am #1379644
Jaiden .Member
Well there are lots of studies online showing that it's toxic to aquatic animals, which must mean it gets into the water somehow. NOTE: most concerns are for industrial pollution and direct application to water sources.
So, I guess the jury is still out. I am not convinced that it's unsafe, but I won't be treating my clothes next to a stream either! On the plus side, it does look to be very effective against ticks, so I'm considering buying some for my shoes and hiking pants. I didn't know anything about it before this discussion other than the blurb I read online.Feb 22, 2007 at 11:36 am #1379659

Thanks Scott!!
PatFeb 22, 2007 at 12:21 pm #1379664
Spraying is definitely the easiest way to treat clothing. It's the only way I have done so, both as a Marine in Okinawa and on many personal trips. The chemical is supposed to bond directly to fibers, and length of effectiveness varies considerably with the concentration used. Washing is not supposed to be a factor.
Sprayed treatment usually only lasts for a few weeks. The Sawyer Bottle specifies about 2 weeks, though I've used the same clothing, treated right before a NOLS course, and it was helpful against bugs for basically the full 30 days. (OF course by then, my natural body aroma may have contributed to keeping mosquitoes away).
The spray treatments are in 6 and 12 ounce bottles:
Commercial treatments actually submerge the chemicals in more heavily concentrated vats and can achieve up to a year of effectiveness this way. Ex Officio's BUZZOFF! line is one example. You could manage this the same way if you can get access to higher concentrations of liquid permethrine. There was a thread on The Lightweight Backpacker a couple of years ago that went into great detail. REI also offers a soakable version of permethrine which I have not used that is supposed to be good for 6 weeks: http://www.rei.com/online/store/ProductDisplay?storeId=8000&catalogId=40000008000&productId=48002940&parent_category_rn=4500561&vcat=REI_SEARCH
BTW, permethrine is the same chemical used in many flea and tick collars and flea dips. Many Marines I knew in the Carolina tidelands would place flea collars around their boot tops to keep out fleas and chiggers.Feb 22, 2007 at 12:43 pm #1379669
Mitchell KeilMember
@mitchellkeilLocale: Deep in the OC
Thanks for the info on the Sawyer product. I was just out for a two nighter and met this fellow who had on a Buzz-Off shirt and swore that it was the best investment he has made recently. He told me that the treatment lasts for 25 washings and that he had washed his shirt about 13 times since purchase and that it was still effective. What have you heard about this 25x washing cycle? I used the Sawyer product last summer and did not find that it was as effective as Deet but I may not have sprayed my clothes long enough to get the level of desired effectiveness. I really like the idea of using the flea collar around the boot top. Any comment on using the spray "on" my boots which are either poly mesh trail runners or mid-height boots with a gore fabric exterior? Does the permethrine penetrate poly fabric or adhere to gore fabrics? Sorry for so many questions but you seem to be the go to guy on this one.Feb 22, 2007 at 1:25 pm #1379677
david fausnightMember
I spoke to an Ex Officio sales rep a while ago. She said that the treatment was definately good to 25 washings. In fact they were trying to have it retested so they could advertise it at 42 washings. Now Im not sure how much of that was company coolaid, but it sounds pretty good.Feb 22, 2007 at 2:34 pm #1379689
The realistic expectation is time moreso than washings. Water has a minimal effect on permethrine (from every thing I have heard). Conversely, the chemicals naturally lose their bonding over time. Fabrics soaked in the BUZZOFF style are supposed to be good for at least one year from the time of treatment. From the extended experiences I have had past the "two-week" window with spray-on treatments, they may well hold up considerably longer than a year. So while you might degrade the permethrine effect by repeated frequent washings, if you hang your stuff up and don't use it for a couple or three years, you may also not have eny effective repellent effect left. This would be due simply to natural breakdown over time, regardless of many or few washings.
I can't give any authoritative word on fabric except that permethrine bonds better to natural fibers versus synthetics. (Think of dog or cat hair for example) It DOES bond to breathable nylon such as Ex Officio clothing and similar brands of apparel. I don't know whether it might harm a waterproof/breathable laminate or not, but there's really no need since every jacket tight enough or thick enough to block water should also block a mosquito proboscis. With that in mind, why risk it?Feb 22, 2007 at 4:01 pm #1379702
Frank RamosMember
Regarding Marines using flea collars around their legs for chigger protection, here is what the Army thinks about that:
If you do plan to use a dog or cat flea collar, make sure the ONLY ingredient is permethrin.Feb 22, 2007 at 4:59 pm #1379708
Well, that's the army for you.;-) The marks in the pictures were clearly from wearing the collar directly on the skin. By wearing the collar around the boot, with a layer of leather and thick sock protecting the skin, this wouldn't be an issue. And in truth, the marks in those pics are no worse than some of the more intense chigger infestations I saw.
But I still prefer permethrine by a long shot.Feb 22, 2007 at 5:11 pm #1379711

@ouzelLocale: Pacific Northwest/Sierra
Does anybody have any beta on the effect of UV radiation on permethrin clothing treatments? This is a potential concern if hiking at higher elevations like the Sierra, my particular playground. I know UV damages a lot of other materials and also that permethrin used as an insecticide by organic gardeners breaks down in less than 24 hours, leading to recommendations that it be applied in the evening for maximum effect. Maybe that is partly the reason the JMT poster had less than stellar results?Feb 24, 2007 at 1:58 pm #1379898

I used some 100% DEET last fall on a trip, and accidently got it on my trekking pole handles. It seemed to eat them, and they're still sticky. That scares me. I did have good luck with peremethrin on a south Texas trip last summer.Feb 24, 2007 at 11:00 pm #1379951

Eric CarlsenMember
A while back I was looking at soaking a mosquito net in permethrin to keep no-see-ums away. I contacted someone from Sawyer and asked them a few questions.
First of all, the soaking treatment lasts longer than the spray treatment. Personally I would go that route if possible (easier for a mosquito net than clothing, however).
But I also wanted to ask why their treatments didn't last nearly as long as one I found from the UK (Lifesystems or in Military versions. He told me that basically the US government would only allow them to sell a certain amount or concentration of permethrin. Of course, he would never suggest such a thing, but I understand that if you put the same amount of permethrin in you'll get the same results as the longer treatments.
He said that it was important to seal the net in a dark plastic bag in between uses. It's important to reduce light (I imagine UV) exposure and air flow. I asked if it would last longer if I did that and only used the net once a month. He thought the treatment would last much longer than the advertised six weeks.Mar 3, 2007 at 6:02 am #1380862

If you add DEET to a plstic cup (like the ones from coffee machines) and leave it overnight the next morning the cup will have magically disappeared. Yikes.
In Holland the maximum concentration of DEET that is alowed to be sold is 50%. 50% DEET is as effective as 100% in making you less 'visible' for insects, it only weighs twice as much.
Permethrin isn't allowed to be sold at all (we sold it under the counter if you know what I mean)! Permethrin treated mosquito nets/clothing is allowed to be sold.
Food for thought.

Today I ran across an issue with CIFS on a NetApp filer running Ontap 8.01 while attempting to add some AD Groups to the Share permission on the filer.
Using System Manager 2, System Manager 1.1, the CLI , etc – I was unable to add any Active Directory groups to the share permissions of shares created in CIFS.
Turns out it a bug….
The way to deal with it is to use Computer Management from a Windows box, Connect to Another Computer, enter the filer name, then use the Shares section to manage permissions.
Hope this saves someone some time!

Reviews for this host's other properties
The appartement it's good and you are so helpfull when want to chek in but in chekout do you hear about Respect clients or customers privacy you should Knock the door before enter ....we learn that from our cheldhood that we should knock the door berfore enter even if you are apparetement owner ....
Appartment as decribed on the web. Good location, close to many visiting sites.
Well receviez on arrivât, Someone was there to tour the apartment with us and to ex plain fonctionnions of the facilités. Appartment very cleaned.
The apartment is about a block from the train station. Since we arrived and left by train, we had chosen the apartment in part for the location. For 2 people, the apartment had ample space. The view from the balcony (on the 11th floor) over all of Salzburg was amazing. There were tram and bus lines from the station all over the city, although downtown was easy walking distance. There were several grocery stores within a few blocks. My only comment was the the apartment is advertised as having a "washer/dryer." There was a washing machine, but the dryer was a drying rack.
Unfriendly, lack of goodwill and profit addictive!
One rents an apartment for 2 nights and we were treated as the enemy house!
Unfreundlich, fehlende Kulanz und profitsüchtig!
Man mietet eine Wohnung für 2 Nächte und wir wie der Hausfeind behandelt!
A very comfortable and rather central location. It is brilliantly clean and ample bedding and towels, but a few basics like tea/coffee would be helpful, as would the "heads up" that you must pay 12€ as a "city tax", for which you fill in a form. The local gas bar is great for some groceries and delicious bakeries and cafes are nearby, as is the Mozart museum.
The apartment Teresa is within walking distance behind the main train station in Neustadt. All sights are within walking distance to reach on value for money is OK. The apartment is managed by an "owner company" and is located in an apartment building. The manager came to meet our needs and enabled us kindly a much earlier access to the apartment. The apartment was functional and clean. Some certainties other apartments are a bit sparse limited (z. B. additional trash bags, tablets for the dishwasher).
Das Apartment Teresa liegt fußläufig hinter dem Hauptbahnhof in der Neustadt. Alle Sehenswürdigkeiten sind gut zu Fuß zu erreichen.Das Preis- Leistungsverhältnis ist OK. Die Wohnung wird von einer "Vermietergesellschaft" verwaltet und liegt in einem Mehrfamilienhaus. Der Verwalter kam unseren Wünschen entgegen und ermöglichte uns freundlicherweise einen deutlich früheren Zugang zur Wohnung. Die Wohnung war funktional und sauber. Manche Selbstverständlichkeiten anderer Ferienwohnungen sind etwas karg limitiert (z. B. zusätzliche Müllbeutel, Tabs für die Spülmaschine).
all corresponded to the Vorstellunungen.
alles entsprach den Vorstellunungen.
We arrived at the apartment that we booked and was told that we had booked a different apartment. They finally admitted that they had switched our apartment without asking us or even telling us. We booked the apartment as we needed to be in that area. Now they will not even return my emails.

As temperatures heat up during spring and summer, be on the watch for algae blooms when recreating in Oregon lakes, rivers and reservoirs.
When an algae bloom is detected and lab results show that cyanobacteria or their toxins are present, OHA issues a health advisory warning people to stay out of affected water to avoid illness.
We send health advisories via the media, email, and we post this information here on the HABS website. Sign up to receive email alerts.
Exposure to cyanobacteria can be serious and result in a range of symptoms including skin rash, diarrhea, cramps, vomiting, numbness, dizziness and fainting. Children, people with weakened immune systems and pets are most vulnerable to illness.
Pets are at risk, too
Over the past three years, we've had reports of dog deaths due to exposure to bloom-affected water. HABS and Douglas County Health Department conducted specific outreach efforts along the South Umpqua River and mainstem Umpqua River following widespread publicity of dog deaths in the area, and the effort will continue this year.
When to avoid water contact
Because only a fraction of Oregon's fresh waters are monitored, the public can't count on being notified about all harmful algae blooms, so there are certain conditions you can identify to stay safe and healthy. If the water smells bad or looks foamy, scummy, thick like paint and pea-green, blue-green or brownish-red in color, it's best to stay out.
The HABS program is funded through a federal grant from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The program relies on local, state and federal agencies that manage water bodies to alert it when a potentially toxic bloom has been detected. Information about harmful algae blooms and the HABS program are updated as this data and other information become available to us.
Be safe,

Crews brave the cold to bring reliable service to you in $1.4 million project
Post by
Dan Kolbet
If you've traveled along Highway 95 in North Idaho by Silverwood recently, you may have seen Avista natural gas crews working alongside the busy highway. We wanted to let you know what they are up to. Our crews are relocating and increasing capacity for six miles of natural gas pipeline to accommodate a newly constructed highway.
The Idaho Department of Transportation is reconstructing a portion of Highway 95 from approximately Chilco to Athol. The highway will expand from two to four lanes, which is great for safety and traffic, but means Avista's existing 3-inch natural gas pipeline needs to move to a new right-of-way on the east side of the road.
Avista is expanding the capacity of the pipeline from 3 to 6 inches too. Expanded capacity helps serve existing customer needs and helps prepare our infrastructure for the future. The estimated cost for this project is around $1.4 million. Part of our requests for customer rate adjustments typically includes infrastructure work like this project.
You can see from the slideshow of pictures that the crews are clearing a pathway, laying down 40-foot lengths of yellow plastic pipe, fusing them together and then burying the pipeline with sandy soil. The sandy soil protects the pipeline from being touched rocks or hard objects that could put pressure on the new pipeline. After the line is in place it will be pressure tested before being brought into service.
The project started in mid-December and should be completed by mid-March. One of the biggest hurdles the crews had to overcome recently was frost. At times crews had to dig through 12 to 24 inches of frozen ground to make a trench that goes much deeper. Typically large projects like this aren't completed during winter months, but Avista and other utilities agreed to do the work now to accommodate the Idaho Department of Transportation's aggressive schedule. Luckily snow hasn't been an issue yet, but if it does, our crews will work through that too.

He is a athletic freak that can get pressure, stop the run and cover. If you want a day one replacement for Spencer this is the guy.

Goldman to Cut Staff in Trading, Investing, Says Reuters
Goldman Sachs (GS) has begun its latest round of job cuts, Reuters's Lauren Tara LaCapra reports this evening, a sign that cost cutting is still paramount at Wall Street firms.
Jobs at its trading and investment divisions are on the chopping block, writes LaCapra, according to sources familiar with the situation.
However it's not immediately clear how many workers might be affected, as individual units have been given varying targets.
The move comes after Goldman eliminated 2,400 jobs last year as part of its annual cull of workers who have underperformed or whose functions can be automated.
Goldman has set out aggressive cost cutting targets recently, achievable largely through workforce reductions.
Goldman shares were up 33 cents at $124.63 in late trading.

Review excerpt: Led Zeppelin's sheer power, ability and show of integrity delight 20,000 fans in Stadium concert
For their last few tours, spaced at two-year intervals, their concerts have become events, a phenomenon which no doubt strikes some as incomprehensible. But I'd bet the 20,000 or so people who turned up at the Chicago Stadium Wednesday night for the first of four shows the band is doing there would find their popularity as credible as the group is incredible in its steamroller approach to rock and blues.
This is a band, for instance, that plays for three hours straight, with few dull moments once it gets rolling. Wednesday, it took a couple of songs; the band tends to build to a cumulative effect rather than launching all of its firepower at once.
Part way into the show lead singer Robert Plant, ace guitarist Jimmy Page, keyboard and bass player John Paul Jones and drummer John Bonham sat in a peaceful row across the front of the stage, doing a segment of quieter ballads in a folky, medieval mood. It was a striking change of pace from what had gone before and would come after, which was the sort of power-rock, extremely loud with a blues base, that Zeppelin handles so well.
It was, in short, the usual Led Zeppelin show – a lot of music handled well, and very little bull. Plant in fact was the only member of the group who spoke at all, and then only briefly, though the group's ambience is far from aloof. But it's clear that they're there for one main purpose: to create fireworks. And speaking of that, Plant would just as soon the audience left that sort of thing to Led Zeppelin. (ChicagoTribune, April '77)

Before I start completely diving into this project, I was thinking that it may benefit me to add a second battery to assist with the electrical load that I'll be working with while towing and having a bunch of kids gadgets/ laptops charging. I know adding the battery isn't hard, especially with a vehicle that is physically set up already, but do you guys know if I need to upgrade the alternator too? Any other pitfalls along the way that I need to look out for? Thinking of mounting the inverter under the second row seat.
