We're delighted to let you know that, beginning October 3, 2016, 826michigan will again offer our free drop-in tutoring program at beezy's cafe, 20 N. Washington Street, in downtown Ypsilanti. Oh, and, did we mention: !!!
What is 826michigan's free drop-in tutoring program?
826michigan is proud to offer a completely free tutoring program for students between 8 and 18 years old. "Drop-in" means that students may arrive at any time while the program is running and receive homework help from one of our tutors. Students are not required to pre-register, but they do need to bring homework or school projects. Like all 826michigan programs, it is free to participate.
Where does tutoring take place?
826michigan offers tutoring in Ypsilanti at beezy's cafe, located at 20 N. Washington Street in downtown Ypsilanti. Parking is available at multiple surrounding meters, structures, and surface lots. Once a student is registered, and guardians have met with our tutoring staff, guardians need not park and come in for drop-off and pick-up of students who are old enough to sign-in independently.
Do you tutor students in subjects other than creative writing?
Yes! We provide homework help in any subject area, from beginning spelling words to earth science to foreign languages to advanced physics.
When does tutoring take place in Ypsilanti?
Tutoring runs during the school year, Monday through Thursday from 6:00 to 8:00pm. When Ypsilanti Community Schools close for any reason, either a planned break or weather-related closure, 826michigan's Washington Street Tutoring at beezy's cafe does not happen. There is no summertime tutoring program. News about tutoring cancellations due to weather or special events is available on our website, http://www.826michigan.org/.
Who are your tutors?
826michigan tutors are trained volunteers who are passionate about providing the one-on-one guidance that we believe facilitates great leaps in learning and academic success. Our tutors range from undergraduate students to published creative writers to post-doctoral researchers to professionals from every field.
Are you looking for adult volunteer tutors?
Yes! If you are interested in volunteering with 826michigan in any capacity, please fill out a volunteer application online. We will contact you about our next volunteer orientation and tutor training.
Who are your students?
Any student meeting our age requirement is eligible to participate in drop-in tutoring. It is not necessary to be enrolled in the Ann Arbor or Ypsilanti public schools.
What can I expect the first time my student comes to tutoring?
On your first day of tutoring, you will walk into beezy's cafe to enter our tutoring lab. At the entrance to the lab, you will be greeted by our tutoring intern, who will help your student sign in and match them with a tutor. You will receive a welcome folder that includes a list of expectations for student behavior, a tutoring schedule, and some light paperwork for a parent or guardian to fill out (this only happens the first time you attend tutoring). Our tutoring intern or a staff member will explain this paperwork and 826michigan's policies to you and your student. Once students sign in, parents or guardians are free to leave as long as students have transportation home by 8:00pm. If you choose to stay during tutoring, there is limited seating available on beezy's sofas.
What should my student bring to tutoring?
Students are asked to bring homework, practice sheets, writing projects, or workbooks to tutoring. We are sometimes able to extend general support to students; however, we reserve the right to turn away anyone who does not arrive with homework if resources are tight.
Do you offer tutoring help anywhere besides Ypsilanti?
Yes! 826michigan offers a drop-in tutoring program in Ann Arbor, just inside the Liberty Street Robot Supply & Repair, 115 E. Liberty Street in downtown Ann Arbor. This tutoring program runs every Monday through Thursday between 3:30 and 5:30pm and is currently open to any student aged 8 to 18.
Who can I contact with more questions about 826michigan tutoring in Ypsilanti?
Please contact D'Real Graham, 826michigan's Program Manager, with questions: firstname.lastname@example.com or 734-761-3463.

(Darkroom facilities can only be accessed by graduate students, and students currently enrolled in analog photography classes)
There are 3 different areas that make up the darkroom facility: the processing area, the finishing area and the darkroom proper. In the processing area are all the tools students and faculty need for developing 35mm and medium format B&W film, from lightproof closets, to negative drying cabinets. Inside the darkroom, are 23 photographic enlargers, and two large developing stations that can accommodate any photographic developing size up to and including mural-size printing. The final area is the finishing area, which contains light tables and heat presses for dry mounting photographic work.
Digital photography is also supported in the department through the media lab. We currently have a 44" wide format Epson ink jet printer to produce various hard copies of digital files.

HYDE PARK, Wednesday—I am entirely convinced that one of the things that must be done, if we are going to develop the Good Neighbor Policy satisfactorily, is to make the Spanish language the second language learned by every school child in this country. We elders had better do what we can too, no matter how haltingly, to learn this language spoken by so many people whom we must understand.
Yesterday, the two South American ladies who came with their husbands to lunch with us were perfectly charming. One of them, in Spanish which I could understand but not answer, told me that in her country she belonged to the Socialist Party which corresponded to the Democratic Party here. She added that the position of women made it impossible for a woman in her country to hold a public office, if she were married and her husband held one. She regretted this because she felt that women had a contribution to make and she had held a position acceptably before her marriage.
Quite evidently we could have talked at some length and with advantage to both of us had I been able to speak, as well as understand, Spanish. Someday, perhaps, I will have time to learn another language, and I am quite determined that it will be Spanish. In the meantime, I hope that in every school in this country we will teach the children to consider Spanish their second most important language. It should be as easy to talk Spanish as English. This will encourage our Latin American neighbors to make English their second language. I must say they get on better in English than we do in Spanish.
After our Latin American guests had gone, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Patterson drove about the place with us and we sat for a while on the porch at my husband's cottage where it was delightfully cool. Then we returned to find Justice and Mrs. Felix Frankfurter who had just arrived to spend the night.
I must tell you of a very charming gift which has come to me from a German refugee. It is an exquisite drawing of some dandelions with their leaves, some clover and other wild flowers. Under the drawing is written "Ellis Island—picked through the only bars that ever held a promise of freedom." This particular refugee was only passing through the United States on a temporary visa with a more permanent one entitling her to entry into another country.
When examined, she told of her ability to draw and she was at once asked if she were going to draw pictures of our defenses. Her answer was: "No, I only draw the little flowers and the little animals"—a peaceful enough subject and charmingly done. I hope the bars which "promised freedom" will bring her to her new home and to contentment and liberty.

I make these bars by slicing them up very thin and eating them off a plate. It feels like more of a gourmet and exclusive treat than chowing down a whole bar out of a foil wrapper
Candy Bar substitute

I buy this to use as a candy bar substitute (think mars/snickers) and it really hit the spot. THis product is unavailable in Singapore and Iherb really saved my taste buds (and waistline) with this. Really really reaaaaallly good. I would recommend this over the Atkins endulge because with just a little more moolah, you get almost 2x the fiber AND protein. I also would think that this is more satisfying than the endulge series. SO, do go for this is if you're finding a candy bar substitute (:
Very good!

I've tried a lot of the Atkins bars and this is one of my favourites. It's a heavy chocolate and caramel taste and works very well as dessert when you have a heavy craving. ;)

Well actually they're not too bad for calories...but I only use them for the occasional snack and then I eat half only. They're not a meal unless you're a size zero catwalk model. Very tasty and good for a hit of crunchy chocolate but you won't feel full if you just eat one for lunch. Maybe that's where I went wrong...I should have consumed the whole box?
Didn't like it

The caramel layer was salty and hard to chew and overall I just did'nt enjoy it.

I have tried almost all of the Atkins bars now, and this one is by far my favourite! Light and crispy, not heavy or sickeningly sweet like many other bars. Though they're "dangerous" to keep around, I'm ordering another box right away :-)
love them

June Quite a rip- ple of excitement was created at Ferry wharf Wednesday afternoon by an at- tempt on the part of Colonel Cotton, commandant of Battery A. stationed at Kingston, to prevent, an excursion party boarding, the American sioamer St. Laiv- renco until she bad lowered the stars and stripes. A few davs ago tbe man- agement of the steamer received per- mission from the Canadian government to call at Canadian ports down the St. Lawrence river to collect excursionists. The boat was engaged yesterday by the Canadian Order of Foresters for an ex- cursion to tuo Tuousand Islands- Among those most p-omincnt In the party was Mayor Brennan. of this city, who had engaged Mattery A Band to es- cort the excursionists. When about to board the boat the mayor was in- formed by Colonel Cotton that the band could not board the steamer until the American flag wa.s hauled down. This order caused great commotion among tbe Foresters and their friends. The owners of the steamer, however, after being consulted, refused to obey tbe order and so informed Colonnl Cot- ton. The American flag was flying at the end of the stcamar's bowsprit and the union jack at the top of the stars at the bow of the boat, and tbe stars and stripes also predominated at the stern. Tbe excursion wont on without tho band. __ _ ON THE WAR PATH. Cltevennr Maklne Trouble for Set- In Kniiclimeti rlceiiiB to tho Town-. UKU.VA. Mont, Juno The Chey- enne Indians are on the path.

New Delhi: Telecom and IT Minister Kapil Sibal today said the price of Aakash tablet will soon come down to $35 (about Rs 1,900 approximately) from the current $49.
"Aakash is a tablet which at the moment costs $49. It will come down to $35 very soon. It has all the amenities of any modern tablet," Sibal said at Reverse Buyer Seller Meet (RBSM) here organised by Telecom Equipment and Service Export Promotion Council.
The Minister added that next version of the tablet will also have Skype, an application used for making voice calls using Internet connection and does not necessarily require a SIM.
"It performs the same function as a $150 tablet," Sibal said, adding that Aakash is kind of product that two-third population of world needs as they don't have enough resources to buy tablets which cost $150.
Explaining on the way price of Aakash tablet drops, the Minister said: "The capacitative (touch) screen is imported at a cost of $22 or around $20. The manufacturing cost is $2. If you were to set up that manufacturing unit in India, the cost will come down automatically from $49 to $29."
He said that government is in process to get Cabinet approval for manufacturing of 50 lakh units of Aakash tablet in India and then float a global tender for its production in the country.
He said the production of Aakash tablet in large volumes will further drive down the cost.
In the last tender, each unit of Aakash tablet costed government Rs 2,263 and it announced 50 per cent subsidy on the tablet for students which finally costs Rs 1,130.
The Minister said if Indian industry is able to provide a quality solution for citizen of the country then such solution or product will work anywhere in the world.
"In fact it will be game changer for the world…consumers in Europe, consumers in Japan, consumers in the United States of America would be looking for those solutions because he will be getting the same solution at a much lower cost and a very high quality solution," Sibal said.
The Minister said government is giving enormous emphasis to research and development (R&D) for manufacturing of electronics product in the country that are of high quality and reasonably priced.
"We are going to create an R&D fund in which the government will contribute. We are setting up fab so that(electronic) chip manufacturing can be done India," he said.

Bed Bug Basics from the Experts at New Jersey Bed Bugs
The New Jersey Bed Bug problem has reached startling levels, emphasizing the necessity of making the concerned public aware of important facts about bed bugs.
According to these bed bug specialists, the alarming rise in bed bug population highlights the clamor for the dissemination of the proper information about bed bugs and how to deal with them. As the authority on New Jersey Bed Bugs, the organization believes facts on bed bugs need to be made known to the public.
Bed bugs are wingless creatures and are flat and oval in shape. These little critters thrive off the blood of other living things. Aside from us humans, other hosts where they live off of include animals like birds, rodents and bats. But since it is easier for bed bugs to get hold of human blood, humans are their favorite victims, whether we like it or not.
New Jersey Bed Bugs believes people need to be made aware of other less popularly known features of bed bugs. These annoying pests do not actually harbor any disease fatal to the health of humans. The problem lies in its saliva, which some people may find themselves becoming allergic to after repeatedly being bitten. This may result to severe skin infections, especially since the itch that comes along with each bed bite unfortunately does not disappear overnight.
Another thing to note about these bloodsuckers is how they are extremely adept at concealing themselves. Their physical make-up makes it incredibly easy for them to sneak into crevices and cracks such as in your bed frames or in bedroom closets. Any skilled New Jersey Bed Bug Exterminator will inform you that you won't be able to look for them by simply ducking under your beds.
To control the presence of bed bugs and effectively eliminate them, it would be best to consult a New Jersey Bed Bug Exterminator who will create a plan that suits the profile of your home. These bed bug experts will study the makeup of your home or hotel or office and will attack bed bugs with their expert knowledge and special equipment to end the infestation of these pesky pests.
Putting an end to bed bug infestation will take time. But with the help of a New Jersey Bed Bug Exterminator, you are well on your way towards your goal of efficient pest control.

Kosmoskynä Award to Pasi Karppanen
The Finnish Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association occasionally gives a Kosmoskynä ("Cosmos Pen") award to a person who has benefited Finnish science fiction literature in a commendable way. This year at Finncon the award was given to Pasi Karppanen for his work in reinvigorating the association in the early 2000s. He had a hand in breathing new life to the association zine Kosmoskynä, and starting new competitions and other activities. He was also the editor of the Kosmoskynä zine for several years.

On Halloween Eve, myplasticheart held a release party for Brent Nolasco's Gordo figure. This is the Blue Orchid edition, and is entirely hand painted by the artist. Gordo is a resin cast approximately 5" in height, and is simply breathtaking in person. The detail work on this figure is fantastic, and you can really see the care the artist put into each and every one of them. However, there are only 37 made of this edition, so act fast if you want one!
Brent Nolasco was there all night, signing, sketching and chatting with the customers. In the spirit of Halloween, there were lots of freebies. Candy and Gordo pins were free for the taking, and anyone who went in costume got a free ghostly blind box--Ghost Land, BoOoyah Ghosts, and Mini Doppelgangers were available.
Hit the jump to see pictures from the event.
The window display at myplasticheart was decked out for Halloween. Gordo looked particularly nice next to the pumpkins. His box was on display, and as you can see it is covered in artwork by Brent Nolasco. Several of his paintings were on display as well, but no word yet on whether or not they will go up for sale.
Gordo with his pumpkin pals! The purple and orange look fantastic together--perhaps he would look nice displayed next to a Melissa Seraphy figure? The box art is highly detailed, and this is one of the few figures that I would actually like to keep with the box when I put him out.
Myplasticheart was packed even before the release--everyone seemed anxious to get their hands on this little guy. Gordo was not available for purchase until 7PM, but there was already a crowd at 6PM. Only a few people came in costume, though, and most of them were female. Then again, few girls will turn down an excuse to wear cat ears.
Gordo had a few creepy crawly friends to keep him company! One of the spiders on the wall over another setup kept falling down on top of him--maybe he was getting a bit hungry? This was the second Gordo painting on display. Brent Nolasco's artwork is fantastic, and I would love to have this piece in my collection. Here's hoping it gets put on sale! The Gordos on display in the shop were secured with museum putty, and if you end up getting one I highly recommend doing the same. Gordo is a very delicate piece, and could easily break if he fell down. This is actually true of most resin figures, as it is a far more fragile material than PVC or vinyl.
I showed up in costume (fox ears and tail), so I got to pick a blind box. Hooray for free stuff! I did not have any Ghost Land figures yet, and I really like Super7's work, so I picked out one of those. The boxes are made of metal, which is a rather unique idea--almost all other blind boxes are cardboard.
Brent was sketching throughout the evening. The sketches came out looking fantastic--he put a lot of time into each one, and they look more like little pieces of art than brief sketches. Each one took about half an hour to 45 minutes to complete. Brent was very nice, and chatted with everyone while he was working.
My sketch from Brent. The shading is particularly nice.
I unboxed my Gordo back at home. I really like the one that I got--he has slightly more spots on his ears than some of the others, and this is one of my favorite parts of his design.
Gordo's story, from the back of his box:
Just off of Main Street, in every town, lives a foraging monster, named Gordo. You can find him standing over a box of leftovers, fishing out that last crumb, and licking the containers dry. His will to eat overcomes his need to stop, always chasing the next tasty snack. Backyards and garbage cans are his buffet. After a long day of gorging, he falls into a food coma, only to awake hungry and repeat the cycle. His stomach is a bottomless pit. Who knows what he will eat next.
This was a great event, and yet another fantastic release by myplasticheart and mphlabs. There are several figures left, so if you would like to get one, they will be available at myplasticheart for $75 on November 2nd at 1PM. I highly recommend picking up this figure if you can--the painting is simply amazing, and each one is truly one of a kind.Photo Gallery: (13 images)

Every grandparent has the occasional "Oops!" But for the sake of your relationship with your grandchildren and their parents, maybe it's best to keep these 10 comments to yourself — and what to say instead.
1. "Your sister is better than you at [fill in the blank]." Maybe you're trying to motivate one grandchild to try harder, but pointing out her sibling's Serena Williams-style tennis serve isn't going to push her to ace her own next serve, says Jodi R. R.

More on Web Credibility

Joshua Porter comments on Digital Web Magazine's latest article in his post How does Web Credibility Relate to Web Design? I think Joshua makes some good points here, and with any study we should always be a little skeptical about the results. Ultimately doing the research yourself (and I do mean performing your own studies, not referencing ones that have already been done) is the best way to get solid results. I also want to remind everyone that it is not about separating usability from web design (or even removing it from the equation), it's about paying attention to the details of web design as much as we pay attention to the details of usability and IA these days.

It's difficult to take many positives from a 6-3 defeat, even if the margin of Manchester City's victory over Arsenal was a harsh reflection of the league leaders' efforts. "Honestly, we could have scored at least six as well," said Arsène Wenger after Saturday's loss.
There was one cause for optimism, however - Theo Walcott's first league start after three months out injured.
With Arsenal top of the league and pundits marvelling at the contributions of Aaron Ramsey, Mesut Ozil and Olivier Giroud in the final third - plus an improved defensive record - the fact Arsenal's top goalscorer from last season effectively missed three months of the campaign went unnoticed.
Not only was Walcott out, but two other direct players, Lukas Podolski and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, were also unavailable throughout his absence. With Wenger forced to depend upon central midfielders pushed out to unfamiliar wide positions, Arsenal's style of play altered.
The return of Walcott could prove to be one of the most significant factors in Arsenal's campaign
The league position indicates that Arsenal got around the problem effectively, but the return of Walcott could prove to be one of the most significant factors in Arsenal's campaign.
"It is good to have Theo back because he is a player who goes behind the opposition without the ball," Wenger said last month, in his programme column ahead of the win over Walcott's previous club Southampton. "We have plenty of players who love to have the ball, but going in behind the defence is an important quality.
"You miss a player like Theo, and you want to have everybody available for when you need to use them. You always want to find a perfect balance, and if you look at our results, our balance was not too bad. But Theo has different qualities to other players." Arsenal had lacked Walcott's direct, penetrating runs.
Saturday was the first time Walcott had started a league game alongside Ozil since the German's debut, and it was easy to imagine Arsenal's record signing assisting Walcott.
Ozil's trademark is his delicate through-ball, Walcott's trademark his acceleration beyond full backs, and his calm finishing in front of goal. The two fit together perfectly. In the end, it took just half-an-hour for Ozil to tee up Walcott, although not in the manner we expected. Instead, Ozil played a measured cut-back to the edge of the box, and Walcott provided a calm finish.
However, Walcott's natural qualities were obvious throughout the first half. Arsenal's most promising route to goal in the opening stages was with his pace behind the Manchester City defence, and whereas the other three full backs attacked with great pace, City left back Gael Clichy was pinned back, in fear of giving Walcott space. (see Fig 1: green - successful passes, red - unsuccessful passes, yellow - key passes)
For the second half, Wenger made an interesting tactical decision. Jack Wilshere started the game on the left but was switched to the right, while Walcott moved to the left flank, a position he's very rarely played during his time at Arsenal.
Theoretically, it makes sense - Walcott is good at opening up his body and curling the ball into the far corner, arguably reminiscent of Thierry Henry, and he scored a beautiful goal on Saturday in that exact manner, suggesting he might have a future on the left of Arsenal's attack.
Despite City defending deep, Walcott continued to be a threat in behind the defence, despite switching flanks. In addition to the goal, he also caused problems when his run in behind the defence forced Pablo Zabaleta to awkwardly cut out a Jack Wilshere pass - another referee may have given a penalty for handball.
Regardless of which flank he's deployed on, it's clear Walcott's pace gave the opposition something else to think about
Arsenal seemed most dangerous from the left after half-time, and Walcott's positioning certainly helped. (see Fig 2: green - successful passes, red - unsuccessful passes, yellow - key passes)
The diagrams sum up the fact Walcott is right-footed: he's in a better position to cross from the right, but on the left he's more likely to drift inside during open play, and shoot more frequently.
Regardless of which flank he's deployed on, it's clear Walcott's pace gave the opposition something else to think about. Forced to defend closer to goal to guard against Walcott's runs, the opposition defence are more vulnerable to other approaches - particularly from wide, as it allows full backs to get forward untracked, and allows centre forwards closer to goal.
It was notable that Arsenal had a few good chances from crosses - Giroud had a header just past the far post, substitute Nicklas Bendtner had a goal harshly disallowed for offside, and Per Mertesacker finally converted one in stoppage time.
Indirectly, those chances arrived because of Walcott's pace. But the 24-year-old proved he can provide goals in a much more direct manner against Manchester City, and his versatility could be crucial to Arsenal's title charge.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Public Transit in Botswana
Trip Start Oct 01, 2004
121Trip End Ongoing
I departed Gabarone at 6am Monday morning for a long memorable bus ride across the country to Maun via Orapa. It took 13hrs, 83 pula and more culture than this Sheltered Canadian girl had ever seen. The bus itself seated about 80 people and on average had 100+ on board. No air conditioning, very little circulated air and 100 sweating people in a tin can under blazing sun that created +37C temperatures. Wow it was toasty but very cheap.
The bus stopped at every single village along the way (not sure why it was the express). Just when you thought you could not fit another soul on board, 3 more came on hahahaha. In Canada it is considered rude to push and shove to get somewhere, in Botswana it is common practice and the ONLY way you will ever survive public transit. Young push old, Men push women and anything goes to get a seat.
I also strongly recommend that you bring your passport and paperwork on board. The bus stopped at every single Foot and Mouth fence and the police searched the bus for illegal immigrants. If your papers are not in order, you will find your self on the side of the road.
After a long ride I am eager to relax at Audi Camp (recommended) and meet up with my friends before I head into the Delta f�

It would be incredibly foolish for a browser developer to 1) load all data in RAM and 2) read RAM contents to socket. A proper, and i believe modern browser developers use this, technique is streaming from disk to socket, perhaps using a small buffered reader. Cheers, - Markus Jelsma Buyways B.V.

A LaPorte city block was evacuated this morning after police found what appeared to be three pipe bombs inside of a box.
LaPorte Mayor Blair Milo informed residents on her Facebook page that the LaPorte Police Department responded to a call of a suspicious package in the 700 block of Philadelphia Street. Once officers determined what was inside the box, the Porter County Bomb Squad and the ATF were notified. Those officers successfully removed the package.

Event Details
IVY Rooftop and V Productions presents
LIFTED: SPRING BREAK w/ COOKIE MONSTA!
From a very early age Cookie Monsta was always into music. From around 11 years old a PlayStation game called "Music 200" caught his eye and that's where it all began. He would play on this game making loops, playing on it for ages. Then around 17 he had as many music games he could find, but he wanted more. Cookie Monsta never really knew about music production and came from a group of friends that were not into that sort of thing. When he applied at college he was frowned upon for doing this simply because people thought music was pointless to study.
He first opened up Reason 3 in September 2007 and the first ever Dubstep tune he heard was Midnight Request line from Skream, He never knew it was Dubstep, but he loved it even though none of his friends did. Then hearing all the upbeat and darker side of Dubstep made Cookie Monsta get into it completely and ever since then he has been expanding his knowledge of Reason 4 by religiously using it as much as he could. A lot of people ask him for tips and tricks for producing but the best bit of advice, according to him is, "If you're passionate about making music and you know you want to make music then knuckle down and stay on it. If people doubt you carry on, no matter how bad things get. Music isn't my hobby, it's my life." A true word spoken by this future talent.

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by Cbz40, Oct 23, 2006.
This is not a playoff team.
WOW damn
Growing Pains....
Wow. You're a troll. Last time I treat you anything more than that.
I told you.
Still impressed with romo? And his THREE picks, two of which go for 14 points the other way? and the other 3 off the other INT, that's a total of 17 points.
Tonight isn't the true test of Romo, but man this is a tough loss.
You would know.
How's that future look in Wash?
Exactly. Now shut up and go away.
c'mon bledsoe be the teammate and talk to romo!
I can't believe I'm actually laughing right now.
Why not Romo, it can't be worse than Bledsoe...wanna bet?
He sucks.
We need to know what we have in Romo period! If he sucks for the next few games, then so what.. We then know that we need to do anything to bring in the Future QB for this franchise.. This is why we play Romo.
we're in for a loooong year
anyone have the Giants D on their fantasy team this week?:laugh2:
When he went to the line i knew he would threw an int. Why wasn't the HC call a time out. DAMN!
You know, it's funny that a "fan" would write a post like this. I'm sorry, but I've lived and died Cowboys ever since I can remember....and laughing at them is something that I've never done.
SOOO glad to have fans like you aboard.
Ouch. So, we have questions at QB, LT, LG, RG, RT, not sure what our defense needs but it needs something. Can anyone think of anything else? Maybe WR at some point?
rude awakening for Romo, being the backup QB is alot different that being the starter. I hope he's ready for what's about to come and improves next week.
Wow, 102 INT for TD at Philly and then a 96 INT for TD against Dallas.
Freakin' Romo thinks he is Brett Favre or something.

Waynesville shops for power providers
The Town of Waynesville expects to see a 15 to 20 percent increase in its power bill from Duke Energy when its contract expires in 2015, a situation that has the town shopping for other power providers.
The town's longtime energy consultant Kevin W. O'Donnell, president of Nova Energy Consultants, Inc., told the town's governing board he may advise against a contract renewal with Duke when his research is complete this September.
Waynesville is not officially designated a North Carolina "electric city," but it does buy electricity wholesale from Duke Energy and sells it retail to its residents.
The exception is the community of Hazelwood. Shortly before the towns of Hazelwood and Waynesville merged, Hazelwood's mayor signed a 60-year agreement with CP&L/Progress Energy which enabled Hazelwood's residents to buy directly from Progress instead of having to buy it through Waynesville, a third party.
That idea was considered visionary at the time but may prove less than stellar, now that Duke Energy has taken over Progress.
O'Donnell told Waynesville's governing board that other vendors have submitted preliminary proposals to sell wholesale electricity to the town but he is not yet ready to reveal those names. At least one company offered significant savings.
"I'm not ready to reveal the names of the interested parties, but the numbers look good and I'm a numbers person," O'Donnell said. He and Fred Baker, Waynesville's Utilities Director, visited a South Carolina town in April to assess that town's experience with unnamed Supplier A. That supplier seems to be much more flexible to Waynesville's needs, said O'Donnell.
Obvious 'pros' for pulling away from Duke Power are immediate lower costs and less risk of being exposed to coal ash expenses.
"Cost is not everything, of course," explained O'Donnell. One of the major 'cons' is the very real possibility that should the agreement with a new supplier not turn out to be what Waynesville needs, the NC Utilities Commission may not allow the town to return to Duke Energy. "I see that as a realistic fear," said O'Donnell.
Another consideration is lack of fuel diversity and interstate pipeline capacity risk. "New nuclear plants are cost-prohibitive. Coal emissions will always be a concern. That leaves natural gas," he said.
O'Donnell's recommendation to the governing board was to proceed as if Waynesville is going to leave Duke.
"You're looking at a 15 to 20 percent increase if you stay with Duke," he said. "We need to dig into this, and I certainly intend to, this summer, and review the contract proposed by Supplier A."
O'Donnell said after the meeting that he would present his formal recommendation before the board in September or October.
Duke Energy's representative attended the meeting but did not speak. Richard Knight is with Duke's regulated utilities and wholesale power division out of Columbia, South Carolina.
After the meeting, Mayor Gavin Brown said, "This is a big, big decision. Waynesville has had an excellent partnership with Carolina Power & Light and Progress Energy for about 90 years. We'll do what's best for Waynesville, but this is not an easy one."
North Carolina is one of 26 states that deregulated its electric industry in the1990s.
The federal Energy Policy Act of 1992 encourages competition in the wholesale energy market, assuming that competition at the wholesale level benefits everybody.
In 1996 the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission issued rules that allowed access to the nation's transmission systems — a delivery method known as "wheeling," said Onieal.
"The transmission system is owned by Duke, so whatever is decision is made, we will have a separate contract with Duke for the use of their transmission system," Onieal said.

In some Canadian provinces, they take what is called Judicial Dispute Resolution (JDR) very seriously. During designated periods each year, litigants can choose to have a judge help them settle their lawsuits in a confidential pre-trial conference.
In my opinion, every judicial system ought to include JDR. At present, only a few countries, such as Canada, Australia, the Netherlands, China, and the Philippines, are committed to the idea.[1] The general hope in these countries is that JDR will reduce the court's burden, minimize the time and cost involved in full-scale litigation, and generate agreements that leave both sides (rather than just one) happy with the outcome.
I recently spent some time with several dozen judges who specialize in JDR in Canada. In conjunction with the Canadian Judicial Institute, we organized a three-day workshop at which we screened videos of three judges resolving the same case.[2] I was surprised to see how differently the judges approached the same dispute resolution assignment. Since they rarely have time to watch each other work, the variation in their dispute resolution strategies came as a surprise to them, too.
The JDR guidelines in Canada allow each judge to choose either a facilitative approach to helping the parties settle, emphasizing joint problem-solving and a very "hands on" mediation style, or a more evaluative approach in which the judge forecasts the probable outcome if a case proceeds to litigation and then tries to instruct the parties as to their best option. A few judges try to offer a hybrid of the two approaches. Under the JDR system in Canada, if a case fails to settle, a second judge takes over and sees the case through to completion.
The differences in the approaches selected by the JDR judges raise several interesting questions.
- Is it fair to litigants if judges in the same province adopt radically different approaches to achieving settlement?
- Do the lawyers involved understand what's likely to happen when they sign up for JDR with a specific judge?
- What dispute resolution training is provided to the judges?
- Given that (some) judges appear to offer the same mediation services that are available from private out-of-court mediators, does it make sense for judges to be doing this work?
Judges who adopt an evaluative JDR approach assume that once the sides hear what a judge has to say, they will assess their options more realistically and be more inclined to settle. (Whether judges can actually make accurate predictions is less important than the litigants' presumption that they can.)
If individual judges are consistent in their approach to JDR (taking an evaluative, facilitative, or hybrid approach) and lawyers are aware of these styles and can choose the JDR judge they want, the differences may be advantageous. That is, if lawyers and their clients can choose the type of JDR they think will be most helpful, that's a good thing. If lawyers are unaware of how different judges work or have no control over the judge assigned to their case, these variations may create significant unfairness.
I am assuming, of course, that one approach is better suited to the facts of a particular case than another. For example, if settlement hinges on nonfinancial considerations (i.e., apologies, future relationships between the parties, creative swaps that go beyond what the rule of law requires, etc.), I would guess that a facilitative approach would produce optimal outcomes. If only financial considerations are at stake and the parties are not likely to have any future interactions, perhaps an evaluative approach would be most helpful. I can't cite evidence to support these assertions. There is research, though, suggesting that what is described as a facilitative intervention may enhance perceptions of procedural fairness. This can make compliance more likely, regardless of the issues at stake. So there may be reasons to prefer a facilitative approach or a hybrid that begins with facilitative interventions.[3]
A few of the Canadian judges I met appear to be capable of switching back and forth between the two approaches, relying on caucusing and joint problem-solving some of the time, but knowing when, how, and whether to introduce a forecast of what might happen if the case goes to litigation. If all the judges in a system can use either method and can switch back and forth, variations in the approaches to JDR used by judges won't be an issue. But as many of the judges reported to me, they are not inclined to move from one approach to another.
Private Facilitative Mediation
I was quite surprised to learn that JDR judges in the province of Alberta are not required to receive any formal training in the techniques of dispute settlement before they take on JDR responsibilities. Such a lack of training seems like a mistake to me. Just because someone is appointed to the bench doesn't mean that he or she is skilled in settlement techniques. At the very least, I would expect new judges to shadow the most experienced JDR judges in their district before being asked to handle JDR cases on their own.
Should judges take time away from their traditional duties (given growing caseloads) to provide judicial settlement services that might be provided equally well by private mediators? In my opinion, if JDR produces better results (in the eyes of the litigants) more quickly, it is worth the effort. If JDR judges provide the same services as private mediators and JDR takes them away from their traditional judicial activities, leading to a shortage of judges available to handle traditional cases, that's a problem.
Optimal JDR Design
Since the approach of the judges may not match the needs of the cases, I recommend that all Canadian litigants headed to JDR first go through out-of-court facilitative mediation. If a case does not settle, then (and only then) it should go to a JDR settlement conference. This would let JDR judges use either an evaluative or a hybrid form of settlement and would reduce the overall number of cases going to JDR for facilitative assistance. This would also let JDR judges do what they are probably best able to do: use either an evaluative or a hybrid form of settlement. (How this out-of-court mediation would be financed is, of course, a separate issue. I don't think private mediators should be expected to volunteer their services. And if the outcomes do not merit continued support for private mediators, at least the market would provide some verification one way or the other.)
If an outside mediator is involved, JDR judges trying to assist parties in pre-trial settlement should have access to a summary report from the mediator, analyzing the key sources of disagreement and indicating why a facilitative approach to mediation failed. Such reports should not go, of course, to a judge who subsequently hears the case if JDR settlement efforts fail. This is important. As has been pointed out by others, JDR or any effort at settlement facilitated by a judge makes sense only if four conditions are met:
1. Judges who try to settle a dispute are prohibited from subsequently hearing that case.[4]
2. Parties and their lawyers are required to give written consent prior to any judicial dispute resolution effort (so any appearance of coercion can be set aside).
3. There is prior disclosure of the settlement techniques the judge intends to use.
4. Judges receive appropriate training in settlement techniques.[5]
Evaluations of JDR
An evaluation of JDR in Alberta indicates that more than 80% of the litigants who take advantage of JDR note a high level of satisfaction with both the process and the outcome.[6] I'm not sure, though, that most litigants know what they are missing.[7] JDR participants might be happy because they avoided the discomfort and the cost of a trial, not because they achieved an ideal outcome. I would like to see an assessment of JDR that looks closely at the potential "joint gains" the parties may have left on the table and contrasts this with the short-term satisfaction (or happiness) levels of JDR participants. This could be done by asking independent analysts to take agreements that have been reached and interview (privately and confidentially) both sides to explore other outcomes they might have been willing to accept that would have been even better for both sides. I would also like to know more about the 20% of JDR participants who are not satisfied. What might be done to address their concerns? Detailed face-to-face interviews immediately after cases have concluded would probably reveal more than mailed surveys that don't reach litigants until some weeks or months after cases have concluded.
Judicial systems that don't have any form of court-annexed mediation or pre-trial settlement conference facilitated by a trained mediator or a judge ought to consider the potential savings associated with JDR. While no definitive data prove their claims, the judges and court administrators who are most directly involved remain convinced these options are advantageous.
The Quality of Justice
Countries, such as Canada, that offer JDR believe that it adds to the quality of justice they provide. Judges who are comfortable with (or even seek) JDR assignments believe that by helping litigants (represented by counsel) settle, they are relieving overburdened courts and generating better agreements for (certain) litigants than what the courts might otherwise decide. This is not quite the same thing as diverting cases to private mediation. Even if JDR judges do not always predict accurately what will happen if a case is subsequently decided by a judge or a jury, parties tend to believe that judges, more than private mediators, have insight into what is likely to happen. But to make this all work, court systems offering JDR should invest in dispute resolution training for new judges, private facilitative mediation for litigants seeking settlement assistance, and evaluation of the costs and benefits of allocating the time of judges to JDR.
Courts and dispute resolution systems need to adapt over time. The interests and priorities of "clients" as well as the public in general, undoubtedly change. I have a hunch that JDR, if designed and implemented properly, will enable the justice system to respond more effectively to at least a portion of its growing caseload. This assumes, though, that the system is willing to invest in adequate training of judges, careful evaluation of JDR, and all the alternative settlement procedures described in this article. Evaluation results will prompt the courts and dispute resolution systems to adapt their processes to meet the needs of the litigants and the justice system.

Judicial ethics regarding JDR are more opaque. As long as courts that offer JDR assume that judges who fail to promote settlement will hand off their cases to other judges to carry through to completion, worries about ex parte interaction can probably be set aside.

Don't believe the hype: Screen siren Angelina Jolie turns gossip cop and debunks a string of persistent rumours about her personal life in the new issue of Vanity Fair.
The 36-year-old Oscar-winning actress sat down with the mag to promote her directorial and screenwriting debut, In the Land of Blood and Honey, and (for the umpteenth time) nuked a bevy of tabloid tattle about her and longtime love Brad Pitt, 47.
Prey tell, Jolie, is there really a secret wedding on the boil for you and lovely Pitt?
Since hooking up on the set of Mr & Mrs Smith in 2005, persistent rumours dictate that Brangelina will be trotting down the aisle and getting hitched.
The couple has previously said that they won't tie the knot until everyone, whether gay or straight, can get hitched.
"Angie and I will consider tying the knot when everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able," Pitt told Esquire magazine in 2006.
Talk of an impending wedding re-surfaced in June, courtesy of scandal sheet Us Weekly. The mag boomed, quoting three separate sources, that the pair would get hitched "within the next few months".
Total tosh, says Jolie. Wedding bells aren't a-ringin' for the Hollywood power couple. Time to mothball those fancy hats and party frocks, folks.
The Salt star tells the October issue of Vanity Fair that there is "no secret wedding" in the works.
She also added: "I'm not pregnant. I'm not adopting at the moment."
Jolie and Pitt have a brood of six kids (three biological, three adopted): Maddox, 9, Pax, 7, Zahara, 6, Shiloh, 5, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 3.
The typically confident actress also reveals that she's nervous about her behind-the-camera debut - a love story set against the Bosnian Civil War of the 1990s.
"I've never felt more exposed. My whole career, I've hidden behind other people's words. Now it's me talking. You feel ridiculous when you get something wrong," she said.
Jolie also admits that Pitt has been "so supportive" while she made the film.
"He'd come in and say what he liked or what he didn't understand. Like any woman, I would listen to most of it and fight a few things. He's been so supportive. But it's hard to separate the person that loves you from the critic, so I don't think he's a fair judge," she confessed.
Jolie admits she penned the script while wrestling with a bout of flu, locked away in the attic of the couple's French mansion. Oh, the tortured genius!
"I had the flu," she said. "I had to be quarantined from the children for two days. I was in the attic of a house in France. I was isolated, pacing. I don't watch TV and I wasn't reading anything. So I started writing. I went from the beginning to the end. I didn't know any other way."
She then offered the script to Pitt to read, who gave it the thumbs-up.
"He took it on a trip," she said. "He then called me and said, 'You know, honey, it's not that bad.'"
Pitt also thinks the experience will change the way she approaches acting.
"Brad thinks I'm going to be a nightmare," she joked. "I had such a good experience he thinks I'm going to be impatient with directors, which I already am. I get impatient with people working on a film that have their head in their hands like it's the most complicated thing in the world."
She also says she's ready for the inevitable scrutiny the movie will face.
"People will judge for themselves. I think if you make a good movie people walk away arguing," she concluded.
In the Land of Blood and Honey is slated for a December 23 release.

Nice budgie smugglers, dude.
Giving it lip
Transformers siren Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has a thing about her lips.
The actress-cum-model, 24, says her kissers change colour, depending on her state of mind. Mood lips. How fabulous.
She tells Now magazine: "They're funny, because they change colour with my mood.
"They get really, really red when I'm angry or passionate and pale when I'm miserable or tired.
"They have a life of their own."
Turn it down
All eyes are on a leaked snippet of newlywed Kim Kardashian's music video for her single 'Jam (Turn It Up)'.
Cast your minds back to March and you may recall that aspiring pop marvel 'KK' debuted her lackluster single, 'Jam (Turn It Up)'. Turns out the track in question was accompanied by a rather racy music video, which was never released. Feast your eyes and assault your lugholes with this 55-second snippet of KK in all her lip gloss-laden, booty glory, and you'll understand why.
I want my 55 seconds back, too.
Hilary banks
Pregnant actress Hilary Duff may have been axed from the role of Bonnie Elizabeth Parker in the forthcoming remake of Bonnie and Clyde, but she's scored herself a nice airbag to soften the blow.
Word is Duff was unceremoniously dropped from the project after announcing her pregnancy earlier this month.
TMZ reports that, thanks to a clause in her contract, she's now been given a severance deal worth $100,000 as compensation.
The website reports that there was a clause in the actress' contract that stipulated she be awarded with a six-figure sum should she be given the boot.
Duff said of the news: "I don't wanna give them any more press than they've already gotten off me... I think [my] baby is a little bit more exciting."
A replacement has yet to be cast. Amanda Seyfried was approached, but turned it down, reports TMZ.
Duff's casting in the remake was derided by the original star, Faye Dunaway.
"Couldn't they at least cast a real actress?" barked Dunaway in 2009.
Duff hit back: "I think that my fans that are going to go see the movie don't even know who she is, so you know ... I think it was a little unnecessary but I might be mad if I looked like that now too."
No prizes for guessing who's cackling in her corn flakes as I type...
Hot Hoff
The budding romance between David Hasselhoff and new Welsh gal, Hayley Roberts, is going from strength to strength.
The former Baywatch star and Roberts have been a hot item since she auditioned for the UK talent show last year.
Despite having initial reservations about the age-difference (he's 59, she's 31), Roberts tells Star magazine that she eventually bit the bullet and fell for The Hoff - and all because he looked hot in the tub.
"I was unsure because of the age difference, but then we got chatting. I thought he had lovely blue eyes," She said.
"I texted him and said: 'I can't see you again', but then I felt gutted and thought age shouldn't matter.
"The next thing I knew, he sent me a text asking me to go to Switzerland with him!
"And then we were in Switzerland in the hot tub and his hair was all wet and I looked at him and thought: 'Wow, you're really hot!'"
And the feeling's mutual. Read more about the Hasselhoff-Roberts love-in over at the Daily Mail.
Bike on?
Could it really be that former lovebirds Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake are back together?
Beady-eyed sources say the pair, who split in March this year after four years together, spent some quality time together over brunch in a Toronto cafe over the weekend.
Bile is filming the Total Recall reboot in the city.
The source tells Life and Style mag: "They seemed so comfortable, happy and at ease (and) they literally couldn't stop staring and smiling at each other. Justin seemed completely smitten with Jessica, and she had this permanent smile on her face, and they joked around with each other."
Another spy tells the New York Post: "They were there for about 45 minutes. They were in baseball caps and sunglasses, but everyone recognised them. Everyone acted very Canadian and left them alone."
The pair was also spotted cycling together in the Great White North, but a source tells E! Online that the spectacle means "nothing official" is going on between the exes.
Consider this blogger's cynical eyebrow well and truly raised. These two could well be on again and taking a lap of honour on the romance circuit. They've been on-again, off-again, on-again, off-again, on-again, off-again more than your average kitchen appliance.
The pair was romantically linked last month. A snitch told Us Weekly that Timberlake and Biel are "seeing each other again" but are attempting to "[take] things slowly".
The spy added: "They have been talking the whole time [since their break-up] and decided to give it another shot. Jessica really wanted to get back together with him and Justin realised single life is not what it's cracked up to be."
Biel's rep had no comment, neither did Timberlake's.

Circuit Theory/TR
A terminal is a place where a wire comes out of an electrical component.
Terminal relations for the 2 wire devices studied so far (resistors, capacitors and inductors), describe the voltage across the two terminals and the current entering and leaving the terminals (which is always the same).
The terminal relations for a resistor are (called ohms law)
The terminal relations for a capacitor are
The terminal relations for an inductor are
A power supply doesn't have a terminal relationship or equation relating current and voltage. Either the current is constant (current supply) or voltage is constant (voltage supply). The power is varied depending upon what the circuit asks for.
