The Pace Library consists of geographically dispersed campus-based operations in New York City and Westchester, which are functionally integrated and centrally administered. The Pace Library supports the undergraduate, graduate, professional, and service learning programs in the following colleges and schools: Dyson College of Arts & Sciences, Lubin School of Business, Seidenberg School of CSIS, College of Health Professions, and the School of Education. The Pace Library also supports a variety of distributive learning programs and outreach initiatives.
The Pace Library is committed to cooperative acquisitions and resource-sharing, the creation of complementary and transferable collections, and the elimination of redundancy wherever feasible. The Pace Library also embodies the attributes of the "virtual library," combining the development of strong core material collections and a wide spectrum of electronic information resources. The Pace Library balances ownership decisions with electronic access in a networked environment which has become increasingly demand-driven and less supply-oriented. The term "collection," therefore, is broadly defined to encompass both conventional print and multi-media formats
The Pace Library belongs to consortia which support shared collection building and collection management. The Pace Library participates in regional networks and consortia to effectively leverage financial resources, particularly with respect to database procurement, shared book collections and electronic book access. Materials identified in the online public catalog may physically reside in the campus libraries and circulate according to prescribed borrowing and access procedures or may be immediately accessible electronically. When feasible, the Pace Library continues to substitute digital products for certain paper and microforms, including, reference sources, serial subscriptions and retrospective files, and special monographic research collections.
The Pace Library regularly employs interlibrary loan and ConnectNY member-shared collections to obtain materials requested by patrons which are not owned by the University.
The Pace Library endorses the principles embodied in the ALA Library Bill of Rights, Freedom to Read Statement, Intellectual Freedom Statement, and Confidentiality of Library Records in compliance with the provisions of the Patriot Act.
Material and database selection are the shared responsibilities of library administrators who retain ultimate budgetary authority, local collection managers who implement policies and provide overall direction, and subject selectors assigned to particular disciplines. The Library's Digital Resource Management Team [DREAM Team], chaired by the Electronic Services Librarian, provides essential leadership and coordination for the selection, evaluation, purchasing, and/or licensing of electronic resources. The group, consisting of a cross section of instructional and reference librarians from both campuses, makes decisions on existing databases, discusses new electronic resources, and schedules trials or vendor presentations. Besides meeting the core selection criteria, electronic resources are also evaluated with respect to:
The Pace Library actively encourages the involvement of Pace faculty in the materials selection process. Librarians on each campus work through their respective Faculty Library Liaison Committees and with individual faculty members to ensure that their subject knowledge and expertise in key growth areas are reflected in collection management decisions. The Pace Library also welcomes input from matriculated students and alumni. Comments on the Library's collections and purchase recommendations should be communicated directly to the local collection managers via e-mail. The local collection managers are happy to share the library's key selection methodologies, and assorted reviewing media with requestors.
The local collection managers and subject selectors are responsible for conducting ongoing assessments of the Pace Library collections. The factors that drive assessment include: repeated inter-loan requests from certain subject categories; new course curricular support; subject searches that yield excessively high percentages of outdated materials; replacement of lost and valuable resources; and usage statistics generated from the library's online circulation system or vendors' information retrieval systems. The assessment process employs a combination of collection-based data, client-based data, and budget-based data. Various qualitative and quantitative assessment instruments may be used, separately or in combination, such as Lib Qual+ and collection analysis software, to determine collection adequacy.
The periodic weeding of the Pace Library collections is an integral function of collection management and necessary to maintain the vitality and usefulness of the Pace Library collections and integrity of the catalog database. The subject expertise of Librarians combined with the use of respected bibliographic selection tools, such as Resources for College Libraries, are essential determinants in retention and withdrawal decisions. Typical candidates slated for permanent discard include: mutilated and dilapidated materials, broken and defective sets, superseded editions, multiple copies of little used materials, lost and long overdue items.
The Associate University Librarians in consultation with the local collection managers will determine whether a prospective donation appropriately reflects the content and spirit of the Pace Library's Collection Development Policy. Occasionally, the Library may accept a gift deemed prestigious, either due to the rarity or uniqueness of the gift or the donor's special credentials. The Librarian may recommend that the benefactor redirect the intended gift to another institution with more appropriate holdings. All donations are gratefully acknowledged in writing, but it is the responsibility of donors to determine market value by consulting competent and recognized appraisers, if they wish to declare these gifts on their income tax returns.
The Pace Library has established several .

CLIPPERS 87, PISTONS 83 (OT): Chris Paul barely missed his first triple-double of the season as host Los Angeles rallied for a second straight day to win back-to-back games for the first time in over a month.
Paul scored nine of his 19 points in overtime to go with a season-high 15 assists and nine rebounds as the Clippers finished their six-game homestand with a 3-3 mark.
One day after scoring 12 points in the final 2:42 of regulation to beat Houston, Paul also came up big defensively by making a steal on a jump ball and feeding Randy Foye for a layup and 85-82 lead with seven seconds left. He added a pair of clinching free throws with three seconds to play.
Blake Griffith had 17 points and 11 rebounds and Foye added 14 points, including a pair of 3-pointers that helped Los Angeles erase a nine-point fourth-quarter lead.
The Clippers won back-to-back games for the first time since beating Washington and Portland on Feb. 15-16.
Greg Monroe had 23 points and 15 rebounds - his 22nd double-double of the season - but it wasn't enough to prevent Detroit from dropping to 4-18 on the road.
The Pistons led 69-60 on Damien Wilkins with seven minutes to play, but Foye's 3-pointers ignited a 14-4 run, including a tip-in by Griffin with 19.2 seconds left to send the game into OT.
GAME NOTEBOOK: Clippers guard Nick Young, who was acquired in a trade with the Washington Wizards, scored nine points in his Los Angeles debut. ... Pistons G Brandon Knight was 0 of 7 from behind the arc and still needs three 3-pointers to surpass Lindsay Hunter for the team's single-season rookie record. Detroit was 2 of 16 from 3-point range and the Clippers were 4 of 20.

ARM's latest processors are built for machine learning and artificial intelligence.
ARM has unveiled its next-generation CPU cores, the Cortex-75 and the Cortex-A55. The Cortex-A75 will be aimed at the premium segment while the Cortex-A55 core will cater to the mid-range category.
The company is touting "ground-breaking performance" from the Cortex-A75 core, which delivers a 20% uptick in single-threaded performance from the A73. The A75 will be able to deliver up to 50% more performance in multithreaded use cases, with ARM focusing on artificial intelligence and machine learning. The core also offers 16% more memory throughput, as well as a 30% increase in performance on large-screen devices.
The cores are the first to be built on ARM's DynamicIQ platform, a more flexible and scalable solution to heterogeneous computing. DynamicIQ allows vendors greater freedom in choosing the cores — including a 1+7 configuration where a single Cortex-A75 core is paired to seven A55 core…

With the arrival of the OnePlus 5, the company graduates from 'startup' status. So where does it go from here?
OnePlus had a great 2016. Last year, the company that made its name Never Settling settled into its groove. It gave us two of the best Android phones of the year at competitive price points and built vital carrier relationships while also catering to its core "unlocked" customer base. And it finally figured out software and OS updates, while steering clear of the bravado and PR blunders that had plagued earlier release cycles.
Countless smartphone hardware startups have fallen by the wayside in the time that OnePlus has existed, making the success of the company in 2016 all the more remarkable. Sure, OnePlus remains a lean organization compared to an HTC or LG, but it isn't really a startup anymore. So where next?

All the fun of the Ceili Mor
The Ceili Mor on St. Patrick's Street, Cork, last weekend. Last year the Ceili Mor attracted 8,371 people who broke the world record for the largest Irish dancing event!
This year was a more modest event but still the people showed up and joined in, slowly at first, but there was a decent crowd out enjoying themselves later!
Photos from last year: part 1 and part 2.
I forgot to mention. I saw so many people with cameras that I'm surprised there aren't a lot more Cork-based photoblogs. I'm not talking about parents with a compact camera and kids in tow, I counted at least 5 solitary people silently working the crowd and the dancers with everything from bridge cameras to Digital SLRs and zoom lenses. I really need to get business cards printed and spread the word about WordPress.com

Welcome to the Soviet Socialist Republic of Dallas
Back in the DSSR: We hate to say it, but what if the Tea Party people are right? Sure, they may look like wacky gun-loving, government-hating, thin-lipped, bigoted, paranoid loons. Completely deranged, ignorant...wait, we've lost our point here. Oh, yeah. What if they're correct? What if there is a subtle government plot to seize our private property and convert the good ol' U.S. of A. into a Euro-socialist enclave? Like Canada.
Crazy? Look, in many sci-fi movies there's always that guy, the one who warns that aliens are coming to suck our brains. Nobody believes him until it's too late. What if the Tea Party types are that guy? What if there is a plot right here in Dallas, the heart of free-market capitalism, to turn all our property over to the hands of Big Brother and his cronies?
You want evidence? Well, sometimes you have to stop looking at the trees so you can see the forest. Consider the stories in these very pages:
Tea Party
DISD is moving with a heavy hand to destroy a long-lived vibrant greenhouse business so the district can expand a building used for "public education."

Dallas City Councilman Dwaine Caraway is attacking scrap metal yards in southern Dallas—yards that provide jobs—in the name of "development."
You want more? The Dallas Morning News had a front-page story this weekend about how the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge over the Trinity River will transform West Dallas with "trendy restaurants and other new businesses." You can almost hear the sound of marching tassled loafers as hordes of city bureaucrats swarm over the span, clearing a bridgehead for Gaps, high-priced coffee shops and beer emporiums serving suspicious Euro-style brews. Who shops and eats in these places? Not the hardworking blue-collar folk of West Dallas. Guys like Buzz do. (But we feel bad about it.)
There's more. The city right now is putting together plans to encourage us to ride—get this—bikes. You know who ride bikes? Red Chinese. And don't get us started on this talk going around about creating community gardens. Listen, you can't spell communism without community...provided you take off the ity part, that is.
You get our point. Local government leaders may look like free-market types, but they're really a fifth column, sneakily using eminent domain and onerous zoning to rob us of our land, our rendering plants and our working class. Ignore the facts if you will, but when Dallas becomes South Vancouver, where will the hard-striving blue-collar folk go?
Well, we hear Farmers Branch is nice...if you're white. –Patrick Williams

Hockey India League: Wave Group buys Delhi team
Delhi is the fourth of the six teams that will compete in the tournament starting in January next year.
New Delhi: Business house Wave Group has taken up the Delhi franchise in the much-hyped Hockey India League, making it the fourth of the six teams which will compete in the tournament starting in January next year.
Hockey India on Monday announced that Wave Group, under Gurdeep Singh 'Ponty' Chadha, would own the Delhi franchise in the HIL. This would be the business group's maiden foray in the world of sports.
Hockey India's Secretary General and HIL Chairman Narinder Batra said the entry of Wave Group into Indian sports augured well for hockey. "Over the past few weeks, when we have been interacting with him, we have seen Mr. Ponty Chadha's infectious enthusiasm. We believe that the Delhi franchise is in very good hands," he said.
"We are pleased that we are moving towards establishing Hockey India League as the world's best hockey league. We have so far signed up with four major business groups - Sahara India for Lucknow, Jaypee Group for Punjab, Patel-Uniexcel Group for Ranchi and now Wave Group for Delhi," he said. "We are in advanced talks with business houses for the other two franchisees."
Wave Group Chairman and Managing Director Chadha said the Group had been waiting for the right opportunity to get into sports. "I was born in Uttar Pradesh, which has been an incredible nursery for hockey from the legendary Dhyan Chand's time. We are delighted to be able to associate ourselves with what promises to be a dynamic league," he said.
Wave Group now has an impressive portfolio of businesses including sugar manufacturing, distilleries, paper manufacturing, real estate and multiplexes and retail management.

Chef of the Month
MacFarlane Pheasants is proud to announce that our Chef of the Month is Executive Chef Jasper Mirabile Jr. at Jasper's in Kansas City, Missouri. Jasper's specialty is fine Italian cuisine. Four generations of Mirabile's have had a part in making Jasper's what it is today. Jasper's was founded in 1954 by Mirabile's grandmother and father. Chef Jasper has been surrounded by food his entire life, so it was natural for him to follow that path. He remembers sitting on his Nana's counter and watching her turn basic ingredients into savory old-school Italian dishes. He started cooking when he was six years old. He remembers cooking for his father and his brothers late at night when they came home from the restaurant. He received his first job at the restaurant cutting bread when he was eight years old.
Chef Jasper had formal training at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, Hotel and Restaurant School. When he wasn't attending classes in Las Vegas, he was traveling to cooking schools in Paris, Venice, and Milano. Chef Jasper is very involved in his community. He is chairman of Slow Food Kansas City, Vice President of Gruppo Ristoratori, and a board member of The American Institute of Wine and Food.
It isn't hard to tell that Chef Jasper has a passion for all things food. He is very active on Twitter and Facebook, and he also does a talk radio show on KCMO called "Live from Jasper's Kitchen with Jasper Mirabile."
Chef Jasper remembers seeing his Nana prepare pheasant when he was little. So when he decided to recreate one of her recipes, he turned to MacFarlane Pheasants Inc. Chef Jasper prefers MacFarlane Pheasant because of its wonderful flavor, and the way it stays tender and moist. He says it is a wonderful way to introduce pheasant to someone who has never had it before.
Here is a great recipe from Chef Jasper:
Petit Pheasant Pot Pie
2 MacFarlane Pheasant Breast
2 cups Whole Milk
3 Tbs unsalted Butter
3/4 Tbs Flour
1 cup Mushrooms
2 Tbs Brandy
1/2 cup Onions (Minced)
1/2 cup Carrots chopped
1/2 cup Celery chopped
1 cup Yukon Gold Potatoes diced and boiled
Sea Salt & Pepper to taste
Fresh Tarragon to taste
Chopped Chives (For Garnish)
In a large sauté pan, sauté onions, carrots and celery in 2 TBS butter until onions are translucent. Add pheasant breast. Sauté 2 - 3 minutes. Remove pheasant and shred into bite size pieces. In sauté pan, add butter and mushrooms and toss for 3 minutes. Reduce pan with brandy. Add flour to pan and form a paste. Add milk and make into a sauce. Add potatoes. Season with salt, pepper and fresh tarragon. Spoon in shot glasses or ramekin. Bake at 250 for 7-10 minutes. Remove from oven and top with petit biscuit. Top each with a fresh chives and serve.
Petit Southern Biscuits
2 cups Flour
1/2 tsp Salt
3 tsp Baking Powder
4 Tbs Crisco Shortening
3/4 cup Milk
Preheat oven to 450. Sift flour, salt and baking powder into a mixing bowl. Cut in Crisco. Mix by hand. Mixture should be crumbs. Turn out on floured surface. Kneed. Roll out 1/2 inch thick and cut into mini biscuits. Bake 8-10 minutes on a baking sheet. Remove from oven and cool.
Chef Jasper's Notes: This is a great pass around appetizer at parties or just a starter when guests arrive. The biscuit recipe is from my Mom and the exact recipe she has used since 1954.
MacFarlane Pheasants, Inc is proud to announce the Chef of the Month for August is Andrew Deering. Andrew is the Executive Chef at Central Coast Restaurant which is located in Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin. Central Coast Restaurant is a premiere facility for weddings, banquets and special galas.
Andrew's passion for cooking started early and came from his father and grandmother. He started working in restaurants at the young age of 14 and eventually ended up in the kitchen. He trained with Chef Richard Sweed, whom he followed for 4 years, going from restaurant to restaurant, soaking up as much knowledge and experience as he could. Together Andrew and Chef Sweed served up great food in restaurants across the United States. Through all of the ups and downs that the restaurant industry can throw at you, Andrew never lost his passion and love for cooking.
Eventually Andrew ended up at Central Coast, again with Chef Sweed. When Chef Sweed decided to venture to Alaska, Andrew was promoted to Executive Chef and now has his younger brother working at his side as his baker. Chef Deering loves nothing more than presenting a new dish for his customers and seeing the happiness that his cooking brings to others.
One of Chef Andrew's favorite pheasant recipes is a simple but very tasty dish.
1 MacFarlane pheasant ¼ C. Chardonnay
1 head of Garlic 1 Tbsp of tomato paste
2 Parsnips 1 Tbsp of Peppercorns
1 bulb of Fennel 1 stick of unsalted butter
1 Carrot 1 Lb Yukon Gold Potatoes
2 stalks of Celery 1 C. Heavy Cream
2 Yellow Onion 2 Tbsp. white pepper
2 sprigs of Thyme salt to taste
Remove breasts & thighs from pheasant.
Chop all vegetables into bite size pc, except potatoes, keeping everything separate.
Take a little of each vegetable & set aside with 2 cloves of garlic.
Take remaining vegetables and garlic and place on a baking sheet with herbs and peppercorns, along with pheasant carcass.
Roast at 375 degrees for 20 – 25 minutes or until vegetables start to brown and carcass is fully cooked. Dump it all into a pot and cover with water. Add wine and bring to a simmer for about 3 – 4 hours until rich dark stock is made. Strain off vegetables, carcass matter, and fat & begin to reduce in pan. Reduce in half or until slightly thickened to Demi and reserve. Take reserved vegetables and toss with oil, salt, pepper and bake in oven until tender and slightly caramelized. Boil Yukon potatoes until done, strain and return to pot. Add cream, butter, salt and white pepper. Mash away.
Plate and enjoy!
Your customers, vendors and employees will love receiving one of our great Corporate Gift Packs!Learn More

We just recently published a list of sessions for MIX08.
Among those, there is one that I hold especially dear:
I had the luck to work with Paul, his team and the WCF team in the last months, specifically on how to leverage the web capabilities that WCF acquired in the version 3.5 of the framework.
It was really a great experience! First, because I had a great time with the MySpace guys. Second, because it was the best way for me (fairly open minded, but still a WS-* veteran operating at WS-Trust level) to approach the REST side of the house. The no-nonsense approach of Paul and his team, who wanted to use REST principles for getting the job done rather than for "religious" reasons, helped me to frame the principles behind REST and ROAs according to their actual usefulness. It basically helped me to cut to the chase, filtering out all the rhetoric (inevitable when things get polarized into camps). And you know what, I have to admit that I actually kind of like it 🙂 That's why I think that this session will be truly remarkable: you will see a paradigmatic application of REST design principles on a real world API, something so big that it needs to be well designed for working as expected. Can you find a better validation of the soundness of the REST principles? And of course, the fact that the web features of WCF supports all that is a source of huge pride for all the people that worked on it…
Anyway: I won't give away any details here. My strong advice: if you go to Mix, you can't miss Paul's session!

It's been well-established that running a business blog on your corporate website is a great way to both build the content needed to enhance your site's SEO strategy and to connect with your audience on a more personal level.
That said, there's a big difference between a business blog that's chock-full of lackluster, uninformative posts and one that's bursting at the seams with the type of high-value content that naturally draws in readers. As you'll obviously have better business results with the second scenario, you'll want to take the time to create the "pillar content" that solidifies your blog's reputation as a go-to source for good content within your industry.
Pillar content, as it relates to business blogging, can be defined as the series of posts that represents your site's best work. These are the posts you'll refer new visitors to, as well as the ones that will continue to be useful to readers – long after they're initially posted.
But because pillar content goes above and beyond standard blog posts, it requires some extra effort to develop. If you're interested in making use of this potent business tool on your own website, take a look at the following 5-step process for creating your own series of pillar articles.
1 – Understand your audience
Building pillar content for your personal or business blog might seem like an individual pursuit – after all, isn't this your opportunity to pour out your innermost thoughts and most meaningful pieces of advice to your readers?
Well, yes and no. Writing pillar content that's uniquely yours is important – but it's even more important that the topics you choose to address resonate with your audience members. If you're counting on these critical articles to represent your business in the best way possible, it's important that they be of the greatest possible use to your readers.
To do this, you must first understand who your audience is. Take a look at your social networking profile analytics tools, Google Analytics and any customer databases you maintain in order to answer the following questions:
- Is my audience primarily male or female?
- What is the average age of my audience members?
- Which ethnic groups do my audience members belong to?
- Where are my audience members located geographically?
- What do I know about my audience's average education level?
- What is the average socioeconomic status of my audience members?
Answering these questions will give you some idea about how to best address your audience members within your pillar content posts, but you'll need to conduct an even more thorough analysis on the following subject before you start writing.
2 – Identify your readers' most pressing needs
Now that you know who your audience members are, it's time to uncover the things that are on their minds – as understanding their pressing needs will help you to develop topics for each of your pillar posts. There are a number of different ways you can do this:
- Are you a member of your target audience? If so, try to remember how you felt and thought when you were a beginner in your industry. Think about the questions you had and the things you were most desperate to learn, and then use these ideas as the basis for your pillar articles.
- What are your audience members talking about on Twitter? If you aren't a member of your target audience, you can still get a glimpse into their mindsets and interests by monitoring ongoing conversations on Twitter. Read through your followers' posts and take a look at which topics are mentioned, which articles are shared most frequently and which messages get retweeted most often. This information should give you a starting point for producing your pillar articles.
- What types of pillar content do other bloggers in your industry have? If you're still struggling to come up with topic ideas, take a look at the content pieces that are popular on other websites for guidance. As long as your audiences are similar, the topics that are playing well on other sites in your industry will likely translate well to your own audience (just be sure not to plagiarize!).
Because you'll be investing significant resources into developing your pillar content, give the specific topics you'll cover some serious consideration before moving on to the next step.
3 – Create damn good content
So, by now, you should have a few ideas for pillar content pieces that'll meet your users' needs, now and in the future. And that means that it's time to start creating your pillar articles!
As you approach the content creation process, keep one thing in mind. Your pillar content articles should be so helpful and engaging that audience members feel compelled to bookmark your pages and share them with their friends and family members. As a result, half-assing the creation of your pillar content pieces simply isn't going to cut it!
When it comes to creating good pillar content, consider the advice given by popular internet marketing blogger Corbett Barr in a fascinating post title "Write Epic Shit":
"Write things that make people think. Inspire people. Change lives. Create value. Blow people away with your usefulness."
Don't just crank out another set of lukewarm blog posts and slap the label of "pillar content" on them. Take the time to revise and edit several drafts of your pillar content posts before publishing them – asking yourself each time whether or not the content you're sharing goes above and beyond what your readers will expect. If your initial drafts don't meet these lofty criteria, keep revising until you're sure you've got a winning set of articles.
4 – Promote your pillar articles regularly
Once you've created and published your pillar articles, the last thing you want to do is let them sit and languish on your website! Instead, keep them in front of your audience by promoting them in a number of different places:
- On your "About" page
- In your website's sidebar
- Within current blog posts
- To your email newsletter subscribers
- On your social networking profiles
As long as your pillar content articles are as good as they should be, you shouldn't feel uncomfortable about promoting this same series of posts over and over again. After all, if you've carried out your research and content creation processes correctly, these articles should continue to have enduring value to your audience – making them worthy of being shared regularly.
5 – Update pillar content as needed
Finally, keep your eye out for any industry changes that require you to update your pillar content. If shifts within your industry make your articles out-of-date or irrelevant, you'll want to make changes that ensure your pillar content continues to provide excellent value to your audience. This is especially true if you plan to promote your pillar articles frequently, as referring visitors to out-of-date or incorrect information can really do a number on your reputation!
So overall, while it may take significantly longer to create your pillar content posts compared to the traditional blog posts you'll post to your business blog, you should find the extra search and referral traffic – not to mention the number of new sales and repeat sales you're able to secure as a result of the relationships your pillar pieces grow – to be well worth the effort.

Welcome to Winter Term 2007 – and Happy New Year!!
- Until last Friday, classes were filling through our new waitlist. Since November 17th, 1644 students have moved from the waitlist into classes. All of these students were sent an e-mail informing them of this change to their schedules. Once Winter Term is underway, we will be surveying select faculty and students for feedback on this new system. If you have any comments, questions, or concerns, please contact Rebecca Mathern (firstname.lastname@example.com). I would like to especially thank several champions for ensuring a successful roll-out of this project: Mike Arnold (TSS); Tammy Billick (TSS); Susan Gillette (TSS); Scot Huff (DOI-Cascade); Craig Kolins (DOS/I – Southeast); Rebecca Mathern (Title III Grant Coordinators); and Pamela Muir (Registration).
- Please mark your calendars for Friday, January 26th, 9am-12 noon, Sylvania Campus, when PCC will hold a forum to discuss post-secondary General Education in Oregon. The Joint Boards Articulation Commission (JBAC) is working to improve the transferability of lower division General Education throughout the state through a collaborative-developed framework that is based on commonly agreed-upon learning outcomes and course criteria. The goal is to improve the transferability of course-work among community colleges and universities and to strengthen the statewide commitment to General Education without compromising the uniqueness of individual institutions' General Education curricula.
Information about this General Education initiative and drafts of General Education Outcomes are on the JBAC website: http://www.osu.edu/news_and_information/forums.php. Additionally, information is available from PCC representatives who have been involved in the initial stages of this process: Kendra Cawley and Doris Werkman who participated in faculty curricular work groups, and Dean of Instruction, Reine Thomas, who sits on the Joint Boards Articulation Commission.
- PCC's 3rd Annual College Goal Oregon will be held at all campuses on Saturday, January 20th from 9:00am to 2:00 pm. Previously known as Financial Aid Day, this special event allows anyone an opportunity to come to campus and receive help filling out the FAFSA financial aid application. Last year, over 350 individuals received information concerning federal and state financial aid availability and assistance in filling out the electronic versions of the FAFSA form.
We would appreciate any offer to volunteer for this event. You don't have to be a financial aid expert to volunteer, there are many ways you can help out on that day. Please consider helping to make this day a success for PCC and prospective college students. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact one of the following people:
CAS Roberto Suarez, email@example.com
RC Cheryl Hefty, firstname.lastname@example.com
SE Linda Gettmann, email@example.com
SYL Katy Ho, firstname.lastname@example.com
Speaking of Financial Aid – in 2005-06, PCC's Financial Aid Office packaged and awarded $51,018,809 to PCC students and another $3,151,210 to students attending Tillamook Bay Community College and Columbia Gorge Community College!! The total packaged and awarded was $54,170,019!! Thanks to Corbett Gottfried and the Financial Aid Office staff!!
- From the Libraries: We have great Librarians at PCC!!!
Katherine Stevens, Library Circulation Services Manager, successfully organized the first two meetings of a Library Advisory Committee. The role and responsibility of the Library Advisory Committee is to provide advice to the PCC Library Administration and Staff on the Library, its programs and activities. Janice Rank, Faculty from the Psychology Department, agreed to be Chair of the Committee for the 2006-07 Academic Year.
Erin Petrequin, Circulation Staff at Sylvania, coordinates PCC Libraries' participation in "SUMMIT." The fast and easy interlibrary loan service that 30+ libraries in Oregon and Washington developed under the aegis of the Orbis Cascade Alliance recently passed a milestone – its 1 millionth loan!! PCC has been a member of the consortium since Fall 2004. PCC's filled transactions (borrowing for PCC students and faculty and lending to other member libraries) represent a small, but important, share of the total loans. In FY 2006, PCC recorded 8,722 transactions.
Anthony Greiner, Reference and Collection Development Librarian at Cascade, has co-authored a book which the American Library Association will publish in April 2007. The title is Analyzing Library College Use with Excel. Tony and fellow Librarian, Bob Cooper, tailored Excel formulas to translate circulation and collection data into meaningful reports for making strategic decisions about buying library materials.
Best Wishes for Winter Term 2007 and thank you for the great work that you do --

That's the question at the end of it - that's the topic for today. It is probably a hypothetical - unless of course you happen to be a stripper reading this. Then you can just mention your daily (or nightly) soundtrack.
But before we get to that - your list of songs that you would/do strip to - let's back the stacked heels up, ensure all the clothes are on and the dollar bills are still crumpled up in fists, knuckles white (and the bit below the knuckle white too from where the wedding band has been temporarily removed). How did we get to this as a blog-topic?
Well, as I've told you before - and hopefully shown with some of the posts - I'm happy to indulge a reader's suggestion/s from time to time. And the Blog on the Tracks Live Listening Sessions have all presented at least one topic. The inaugural had one punter suggest I write something with the headline "I like your music but I don't like your face" (so I did). We got a bunch of topics about death before and after the Live Listening Session that featured songs about death and murder. And of course just yesterday I announced the winners of a second round of Right This Blog! (see here); this came from the last Live Listening Session.
And at the second event - the subject was covers - one reader, you know her as T-Rex (even if most of you think that a metal-lover called "T-Rex" must be a dude), said to me "you should do a topic: what song would you strip to?"
So that's the back-story.
And then we get to the part where I realise that you have no interest in hearing my ideas for songs I would strip to - nor in wanting to visualise me as a stripper. Well, much as it might be too late for some now, fortunately I have thought ahead.
I conducted, fittingly, a poll.
I spoke to the presenters of TV's Good Morning show. I chatted to a couple of Stuff's bloggers. I asked a couple of people in the music industry...
This is, of course, all just a bit of fun. So I'll tell you now what I told them then - you can imagine yourself (if you like) to be some blonde buxom Botoxe booty-shaker (unless of course you already are, in which case, leaving little to the imagination already it's lucky that you won't be put through a strenuous test of creative thought). You can imagine yourself as one of the Chippendales (again unless you already are, in which case, you'll be staring intently at your own glistening abs most likely. And listening to Usher).
So this is a fantasy-thing. And if it's always been your fantasy to either be a stripper or simply state your preference for a particular song to strip to (either real or imagined) then that's a bonus. If not, dig deep, let's get all cerebral and pick some good songs to soundtrack bumbling around with a trouser-leg stuck on a shoe or a bra-strap ignoring the release-plea.
First up I asked the Good Morning crew. New host Hadyn Jones had no hesitation. Bennie and the Jets was his answer. He told me it would be a great song. He had, he said, imagined it already.
Brendon Pongia picked I'm Too Sexy for My Shirt and/or Back in Black (possibly even a one-two combo). He had, he said, used both as entrance music in his basketball days.
Sarah Bradley was also without hesitation. Pull Up to the Bumper was her choice. I asked if she knew what the song was actually about. She said she did not. I explained. I emphasised the hook-lines about pulling up to the bumper, long black limousines and driving it in-between. She said, "good, I like that". I told her that I would share that with the readers. She said, "good, I like that too".
Then I decided to touch base with a couple of Stuff's bloggers. Jane Yee from The Girls' Guide selected This Is Hardcore - by Pulp. Her reasoning? "It's not that I have aspirations to become a stripper of course, just because that song has that sleazy vibe to it - reminds me of dirty old men sitting in a strip club watching some young thing wrap herself around a pole."
Greer McDonald went with "something slow... something you'd no doubt hate. Off the top of my head, Norah Jones - Turn Me On. Horrid I know." Quick, someone call National Geographic right now! We need some photographic evidence of me and Greer agreeing on something. Greer writes Stuff's Lady in the Red blog - so I thought she'd be picking this song. But no. She did, as an alternative, suggest Puttin' On the Ritz.
Jan Hellriegel picked Moondance. Then told me there's a joke in there about dancing and mooning. Proving, really, that the best jokes are those you don't need to explain. As far as I know, Jan has come closest of anyone on the list to actually stripping to music. Her own. See this video here (and yes, it is SFW or, in actual English, safe for work).
And Anika Moa had two suggestions. Her first pick was Slow Hand ("by The Pointer Sisters - it's such a sexy song") But she added "if I had to pick a New Zealand song I'd pick Smoke by Dimmer".
Okay, so it might not be much of a poll - but it's better than imagining one with me wrapped around it, right?
You could pick almost anything by Prince, I reckon. Certainly a goodie would be If I Was Your Girlfriend. And, naturally, Cream and Gett Off. And then there's Purple Rain if you're working the late shift; I imagine it to be a good end-of-the-night strip-club song.
Or maybe you think a fun song would be something silly (but still oddly appropriate) like this?
So, now it's your turn. What song would you strip to?
Me - I'd go with something I already mentioned here as a recent guilty pleasure. Yep, Tattoos & Tequila - that's got morally bankrupt/your-father-is-waiting-for-you-in-the-toolshed/paid-own-way-through-college written all over it. Perfect.
Actually, I just heard Randy Newman's It's Money That I Love. I reckon that'd be great.
But what would you choose? Yep, thanks to T-Rex, we are asking today what your stripper-song would be. So what is yours?

Def Leppard - Pour Some Sugar On Me
Haha cool topic!
I'd pick: The Divinyls - I touch Myself
eminem - 3am
"Hey big spender" - the Queen cover
Keep it in the Closet - Michael Jackson..
To be fair Simon, the version of 'Puttin' on the Ritz' I had in mind was the tap-dancing Cadbury cow version, with the obvious physical link between me and the main star of that advert... Raow.
You should look up "Break the windows out your car" on Youtube. Glee did an amazing cover of it.. Nice slow song but punchy :)
"I touch Myself" - The Divinyls.
You're on point with Prince. If someone took my family, put guns to their heads and said 'strip or I'll shoot 'em', Do Me Baby is a Prince Song that I would do it to. Other songs: Fiesta - R. Kelly Freek'n You - Jodeci My Pony - Ginuwine
I doubt anyone would go that extreme to see me strip though!

Springs: The New Colossus
September 19, 2003,
It may be flying underneath the radar as a private company these days, a status it clearly enjoys. But after bulking up its business through a handful of strategic acquisitions and rapidly adding in excess of $200 million in sales following the collapse of rival Pillowtex in late summer, Springs Industries Inc. has emerged as the industry's new Gulliver, a figure towering above the rival mills and a handful of lesser players.
As if to prove the proverb about the tortoise and the hare, Springs may not have run the fastest race or displayed the flashiest style, but its steady-eddy performance and its deeply ingrained fiscal prudence have enabled the major mill to weather the storm during the bruising retail environment of the first half of the year — a climate that led to the bankruptcy of one major rival and the extinction of another.
And that could climb even higher if Springs eventually succeeds in buying — as it clearly wants to — the powerful portfolio of brands once controlled by former rival Pillowtex — a stable of nameplates that includes Cannon, Royal Velvet and Charisma.
Those names will soon be sold at a bankruptcy court auction, and should they find their way later this year onto labels attached to products made by Springs, it could add many millions more in sales as Springs decides how it wants to deploy those brands. Perhaps it will assign some to specific retail customers, as it has already by giving the Springmaid brand to Wal-Mart.
So, where will that leave Springs by the end of this year? Not just numero-uno, but No. 1 by a very wide margin. With Springs bulking up as projected, that could place it as much as $750 million ahead of second-place WestPoint Stevens, which could end the year with roughly $1.6 billion in sales after suffering reversals during the first half. It might also come in a huge $1.7 billion ahead of third-place Mohawk Home, likely to end the year with about $630 million in sales, flat with 2002, even with the acquisition of the bath rug division of Brumlow.
And it doesn't stop there. A lot of the former Pillowtex business won't necessarily show up this year for Springs or anyone else, since canny retailers anticipated the company's crisis and have enough inventory to get them through the balance of this year. Next year is when Springs could start getting even bigger.
But even with the Pillowtex business it's already snapped up — and Springs is clearly the biggest beneficiary so far — the major mill is also consolidating its position now as the No. 1 supplier in most of the categories it serves.
Springs was already the leader in sheets, with about $640 million last year, a number that can now only grow, especially as it continues to build its bed-in-a-bag business. Furthermore, Springs is the dominant player in comforters, and it's becoming a dominant force in bath.
Now, after picking up the JCPenney towel program, replacing Royal Velvet there, it could finish this year tied with, or even overtake, WestPoint Stevens as the nation's largest towel producer.
In addition to its big position in towels, it's already leading in shower curtains and bath accessories, and is No. 2 in bath rugs. Moreover, with the recent buyout of Charles D. Owen Mfg., it automatically takes over as the nation's second largest blanket producer. And now that Owen is introducing the first serious flocked blanket to challenge WestPoint's Vellux and its virtual monopoly, Springs can only build its blanket business further if it can successfully erode that core WestPoint franchise.
To put it into additional perspective, look at 'big' in just one more way: Last year, the nation's top 15 home fashions suppliers produced $7.9 billion in sales — companies as diversified as WestPoint, Pacific Coast, CHF and Maples. But Springs, all by itself, with its $2.05 billion in sales, accounted for 26 percent of that total.
By the end of this year, it's conceivable that Springs will account for at least 30 percent of all the business generated by the top 15 home fashions suppliers. And before long, more than a third, steadily building sales and gaining share as it towers above all of its rivals in a rapidly shifting environment for U.S. producers.

A collection is always better with a story, and sometimes the simplest stories are best. Take Carolina Herrera's pre-fall 2013 collection: the backstory is so simple and yet so romantic you'd almost question that it was true.
Herrera was gifted a custom-made compact by her husband Reinaldo that had a glistening picture of the sun on one side and a diamond-studded crescent moon against an enamel blue night sky on the other. The 'night and day' theme made its way into her heart and her dresses of the season.
Herrera's 'day' outfits manifest in strong silhouetted suiting in houndstooth, hinting at 70s styles with their empowered boldness. The day also brought things like pretty floral garden party dresses, and leafy green silks.
But nighttime is what captivates the most. The stellar constellations of starry metallic dots against midnight blue make for breathtaking eveningwear that's not too much.
There's romance in the night sky, and Herrera found how to transpose it into a dress.

I'll help everyone out by sharing some codes I found.
5% off over $100 (from slickguns)
FREE-GRND free shipping on the same order.
So that means for $106.59 you can order 6 mags shipped. $17.76 a piece. Or as many as you want, but the minimum is 6 for the codes to work.
From what I can find they seem to be decent mags but aren't really proven though.

text: First up I see there are old threads on a similar Jesse finding topic that were from 2010 and 2011, I'm happy to move this to the end of one of those or if a mod feels that would be better placed... I'm trying to find a couple of clothing items worn by 'Jesse Pinkman' of Breaking Bad and so far I feel perhaps it's my search terms failing me rather than a lack of information online. This is to recreate a 'costume' and so the more items from one outfit I can locate the better I've found the T Shirt is from Ecko Unlimited - Does anyone know if this top has a particular name ? I'm assuming it's not for sale by Ecko anymore but perhaps I could find something on a resale site. That aside, the beanie/hat I'm having real difficulty, every search term I use just returns a big bunch of copy cat hats and whilst they're pretty good I would prefer to find the actual designer/brand. The hoody, I can't find a screen shot where the hoodie is closed but has anyone ever located this one ? It seems as though there's a gold/yellow pattern to the front. For this one the jeans I can just go with any baggy jeans but the Hoodie other than finding a 'yellow hoodie' I've yet to find any paticular designer or brand... I hear volcom were one of the brands but not sure if that would be the same for this one ? Also the T-Shirt (you see a pattern here... I'm far from being a fashion guru and thus my search becomes 'black t shirt with dragon - jesse pinkman). Last but not least the outfit I am most interested in re creating is this one: A slightly clearer although moving image here: http://img.pandawhale.com/30547-Yeah-Mr-White-Breaking-Bad-gif-zuCR.gif The hat is obviously same as first image here but can anyone point out where the white full sleeve top and whatever he has going on on top is ? It seems like a black t shirt and then a gillet as I would call it ? I appreciate any help in naming/finding these items online. This is for a Halloween costume for anyone wondering... I realize I can recreate with baggy clothes and a beanie but before I go down that path I'll try this route first Thank You

A Fonterra worker who was unjustifiably sacked when she was unable to return to her job following a workplace accident is to receive more than $25,000 from the company.
Helen Milner was employed as a Fonterra forklift driver from August 2003. In December 2006 she was involved in an accident on the forklift and days later was admitted to hospital for a collapsed lung.
She suffered a collapsed lung twice more during the following year, and by August had been hospitalised six times for the problem and complications.
An Employment Relations Authority report released today said Ms Milner continued to suffer severe pain and had spent most of the last three years in a wheelchair.
Fonterra dismissed her from her job in June 2007, saying "neither you or your representative nor your medical advisers, could give us a return to work date or even a likely return to work date ...
the company can no longer keep your position open indefinitely".
Fonterra said the dismissal was based on information available at the time, including that it had not been given a clear indication of Ms Milner's prognosis, and advice from its private accident compensation provider that her problems were unrelated to the accident,
However, in a report released today, authority member Yvonne Oldfield said Ms Milner had challenged the compensation provider's decision, and had medical opinions that the collapsed lung was related to the jolt in the chest she received in the accident.
Ms Oldfield said she was satisfied Ms Milner had given all the relevant medical information to Fonterra as soon as it was available, and that her failure to supply information about her prognosis could not be enough to justify her dismissal.
Fonterra was ordered to pay Ms Milner $2685.80 in lost wages, $5000 compensation for hurt and humiliation, and $17,560 for the loss of a benefit in the contract.
Ms Milner has sought reinstatement, but Ms Oldfield declined this, saying given her state of health it would be futile.

Arcadia Walk- Breezy Point Cooperative!
Commentary From The Rockaway Museum by Emil
Lucev, Curator Dedicated To The Memory Of Leon S. Locke
As yours truly was fingering my way through a stack of uncategorized postcards at a show/sale recently...a Rockaway Point card of Arcadia Walk was found. When I arrived home that night, I took out my one piece map of the point of Rockaway Beach (not the split page Hagstrom Atlas which makes your eyes cross at times) and found that Arcadia Walk was shown as two and possibly three segments!
On the east side of Arcadia Walk is Beach 204 Street, on the west side at 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th Avenues, on the east side of Beach 207 Street.
The aforementioned locations are all south of Rockaway/Breezy Point Boulevard. At the east end of 7th Avenue and Beach 204 Street is Graham Place. To the south of Graham Place is the eastern end of Oceanside Avenue, where heading southward off Oceanside Avenue is another short segment of Arcadia Walk, east of Brant Walk. Graham Place continues eastward to Reid Avenue on the east side of Beach 204 Street.
My question is simply, "What part of Arcadia Walk is shown in today's Historical View, and how did splitsville (if you will) occur?

Your Anti-Aging Diet (Page 8)
7. Blueberries
In a landmark study published in 1999, researchers at Tufts University's Jean Mayer Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging fed rats blueberry extract for a period of time that in "rat lives" is equivalent to 10 human years. These rats outperformed rats fed regular chow on tests of balance and coordination when they reached old age. Compounds in blueberries (and other berries) mitigate inflammation and oxidative damage, which are associated with age-related deficits in memory and motor function.

Vacaville Mayor Steve Hardy made a more formal announcement Monday that he would not seek re-election.
Hardy first shared his decision with former Reporter publisher and current columnist Richard Rico, who broke the news Sunday in his weekly column in The Reporter.
On Monday he formally announced his decision in a press release from Cith Yall.
"This was a difficult decision for me," said Hardy, who was elected Mayor of Vacaville in 2010. "I love this City, and I have loved serving the residents of Vacaville in many capacities over the years."
Hardy served as Chairman of the Solano County Drug Abuse Advisory Council in 1978 and 1979 and as a member of the Vacaville Human Services Commission from 1977 through 1979. He was elected to and served on the Vacaville Unified School Board from 1987 through 1991.
Hardy was elected to the Vacaville City Council in 2002 and was unchallenged when he ran for re-election in 2007. Later in 2007, he was appointed by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger to be the Director of the State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control. Upon being elected Mayor of Vacaville in 2010, Hardy retired from his state post to dedicate all of time to the City.
During his time as a council member and Mayor, much was accomplished in Vacaville, the press release noted. Those accomplishments include the revitalization of the Nut Tree into a major shopping area and revenue generator; seeing Vacaville through one of the worst economic downturns in 75 years; dealing with the impacts of the dissolution of the city's Redevelopment Agency; and collaborating with employee groups and residents to help Vacaville through those difficult times. Mayor Hardy felt the most significant accomplishment during his tenure was the successful recruitment of ICON Aircraft.
"It's been an amazing four years as Mayor," he said. "The support I received from residents, staff, my fellow council members and the City Manager, was incredible. The future of our city is bright, and I'm glad I was able to help lay the foundation for that future."
