Molecular Imaging Corp.
Tempe, Arizona
Thank you, Vance Nau, for hosting this signing today. The work you do with molecular imaging is a great example of what can be accomplished when we take innovations from the laboratory to the marketplace.
Globalization, innovation, technology commercialization and a highly-skilled technical workforce are critical to economic prosperity in the 21st century. To ensure Arizona's success, I am committed to making Arizona a global leader in the knowledge-based economy. Vance, businesses like yours are transforming Arizona.
To create such an economy that will lead the nation and the world in discoveries and innovation, Arizona must focus on developing policies that foster knowledge and attract talent.
Technology and innovation-based industries need the support of strong educational systems, a highly skilled workforce, and a pro-active entrepreneurial business climate.
That is why I strongly supported House Bill 2304, which will allow universities to take an equity position when transferring technology into the private sector.
This bill will go into effect after - we hope - voters approve of the constitutional amendment necessary to allow universities to exercise this powerful new option. A question to do this will appear on the 2004 general election ballot.
The synergy between our universities and the business community already exists, and Molecular Imaging Corporation is living proof of that. Ten years ago, this corporation was created from Arizona State University research that succeeded in making high-resolution images of DNA and proteins.
That technology, developed right here in Tempe, is being used by chemists, biologists, and pharmaceutical companies the world over. For the first time, scientists observing and actually manipulating individual molecules and single toms in pursuit unprecedented advances in medicines, immunology, and genetics.
As successful as the Molecular Imaging Corporation has been, we must do more to foster growth in Arizona's tech sector. By allowing universities to invest in private ventures, the time it takes for innovations to move from the laboratory to the open market will be significantly shortened.
It's already working in other states and in other countries, and it is time that Arizona retire the arcane clause in its constitution that forbids our universities from taking such a position.
The world economy is changing more rapidly now than ever, and we must create a flexible economy will meet the needs of tomorrow. This bill helps to do that, and I encourage all Arizonans to vote to amend Arizona's constitution in the 2004 general election.
The bill in front of me represent the changes in state statute that will take effect if and when voters approve amending the Arizona Constitution.
I am pleased to be joined today by many members of the university and business communities, as well as the Arizona Legislature. All of you worked very hard to pass this legislation - congratulations. In particular, I would like to thank Representatives David Bradley and Mark Thompson, as well as John Kaites, Mike Gardner, Quinn Williams and William Hardin.
Thank you all for your hard work.

Not only that the tow rope is one of the recommended equipment car, but sometimes it can be used for other necessary things. The rope from the Czech company ATX is made of durable nylon elastic length of 4 m and has a tensile strength of up to 2,000 kg! On each side you will find a metal mesh with lock for quick connection. Thanks to this easily and without the hassle of tying loops hooking the car and immediately stripped.

Array Bounds for Visual Basic 6.0 Users
Visual Basic 2008 updates the declaration of array bounds to provide interoperability with arrays in other programming languages.
In Visual Basic 6.0, the default lower bound of every dimension of an array is 0. You can change this to 1 with the Option Base statement. You can also override the default lower bound in individual array declarations.
If you leave the default at 0, the number of elements in the array is equal to the upper bound plus one. The following declaration reserves 21 elements for the array Weight:
In Visual Basic 2008, the lower bound of every array dimension is 0, and you cannot declare it to be otherwise. The Option Base statement is not supported.
The number you specify for each dimension in the declaration is the upper bound, and the initial element count is equal to the upper bound plus one. The declaration in the preceding example reserves 21 elements for Weight, with indexes 0 through 20.
You can also specify a zero-length array, which does not contain any elements, by declaring one of its upper bounds to be –1.

EUR/USD: buy on the dips
By Leonid Vereschagin
Trade signal
BUY in range: 1.3510-1.3535
Stop Loss: 1.3490
Take Profit: 1.3570-80
Conclusion: buy-signal is confirmed.
Chart 1. Daily EUR/USD
The pair lost more than 100 pips in the last 3 days and reached the psychological level of $1.3500. This may offer a good opportunity to work in long with tight stop.
Chart2. H4 EUR/USD
RSI has almost made a bullish signal. The price is at the edge of the downtrend channel and this builds the case for a short-term correction up.

"Quark continues to improve upon a fantastic product"
May 31, 2016 | By lukeduran

| Version: QuarkXPress 2016 12.0
Import native objects into editable elements within the layout. This is a game-changer! Owning the license, with no subscription is a big plus, too.
Some key commands are different from previous versions, but this can be fixed with remapping.
For those of you who jumped ship a while ago, you're missing out. QuarkXPress has roared back with a blazing fast, responsive and powerful layout tool that makes print layouts and HTML publishing a breeze.
"Native graphics import that actually works, HTML5 apps"
May 27, 2016 | By Martin_Turner
2016-05-27 12:29:41 | By Martin_Turner
| Version: QuarkXPress 2016 12.0
QuarkXPress 2016 is a major upgrade which brings native conversion of graphics from the clipboard or PDF that actually works with badly behaved sources such as Excel charts - a trick that neither Illustrator nor InDesign can pull off. Additionally, it gives you HTML5 app publishing at no extra cost, which can be achieved in just a few clicks or taken a long way with deep interactivity. It runs faster than InDesign, as QuarkXPress always has, and is typically more stable. This version has crowdsourced its wish list, and gives power users what they most frequently asked for. It is also buy to own. Strong and responsive support via the Facebook group means problems are often solved the same day they are posted.
Initial cost of acquisition is high, but there is no monthly subscription. You can upgrade for half price from any version, including version 1, so most designers should have something to go on. Student version is ridiculously cheap, Not for profit version also very reasonably priced.
Everyone who has been burned by Adobe's introduction of subscription-based software should take a look at this. Once you have started using the native conversion, you will wonder how you ever lived without it.

| Version: QuarkXPress 10.0.0.1
Again, I'm no expert, and I don't use a lot of the more complicated features of this program, but for what I do use to create fliers, emails and other documents, it is across the board really smooth, nice to work with and with a great new interface!
There is a learning curve, since a lot of the tools are now in different places...

| Version: QuarkXPress 184.108.40.206
I use ID and QXP but given the preference it's straight to QXP I turn.
For books and publications QXP is so much fater than ID that it saves me literally hours. Also, Quark do not keep changing the way things work as Adobe has a nasty habit of doing and QXP's menus are a delight to use compared with Adobe's messy interface.
None really, they have been ironed out. One tiny moan is that the book pallet is still stuck in System 7 along with the printer driver and extension pallets
The new kids on the block are fiercely loyal to ID but they should open their eyes and minds and see how a page layout application should look and work.

| Version: QuarkXPress 9.2
Since version 8 quark gained up to indesign at last. The 9.2 version (rated here) runs absolutely reliable and there are many added features.
The old strength of quark lost after computers stone age (version 3.xx) returned. Handling is quite intuitive and all my layout imaginations are simply realisable.
I don't know cons - nearly perfect
All Adobe believers: It's all right, but I am using Quark!

Have yet to find some that Indesign not already has since several version steps. At least it tries to compete, but miserably fails.
Still too much to mention. Read my summary below for more.
Same piece of crap as it always was. Where are the new features, yet really, that justify a new full version step?
Bugs are still there. Plenties. I can't quit Quark 9 without crashing it. Menus and dialog boxes show a weird mixture of English and German.
And I still can't zoom in more than 800%. Come on. Get a life. Is it really so hard to implement? Indesign CS5 weighs in at 4000%.
And the pricing? Still ridiculous for what you get for your money.
No thanks. Avoid at all cost.

They announced v. 9, but you can't buy or upgrade to it yet. Seems you can re-purchase v. 8, and get v. 9 for "free." But you can't upgrade yet.
2) There's a "test drive" to download, but I've been trying for hours, and I only get error messages.
They announced v. 9, but there is no reasonable way to actually try it yet. Oh well.

2010-01-22 17:18:51 | By Martin Turner--2008
| Version: QuarkXPress 8.15
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
We struggled to get the download for this update, because the Quark website kept on sending us in circles. However, Quark support were very good and got it on FTP for us. Once installed, it has cured our crashing problem.
I have now been using Quark for 14 years, from version 3.32. I've also used Pagemaker, Ventura Publisher, Indesign, and some budget applications such as PagePlus.
I felt Quark lost the plot with version 5. Version 6 was better, and 7 was better than that. It's only version 8, in combination with today's hardware, that has given me the old 'quick Quark' feel that I had under version 4 for System 8. By comparison, Indesign feels very sluggish, and, now that Adobe have boosted their upgrade prices, I'm not longer seeing benefits in keeping CS3 updated.
Quark suffers from dreadful documentation â?? like most modern software, there is no book, just online help â?? and from a few unintuitive controls. On the other hand, the speed, including speed of refresh, makes it a winner for time-critical work. We haven't got into the advanced shared composition features, and may never do so â?? the job of design and publishing hasn't changed a great deal, and features we never missed are not necessarily welcome.
Quark is not really a winning application for multimedia or web authoring. You can do much more with Flash in Apple's KeyNote, if working with Flash itself is too arduous. Virtually any HTML editing platform beats it for web-pages, though it is possible to mock them up in Quark and then finish them in Dreamweaver. On the other hand, the extra features don't interfere with the core features.

Police: Principal stole nearly $25K with fraudulent school card
A Sandy Springs principal who was arrested after a damaging audit stole nearly $25,000, according to a police report.
Riverwood International Charter School Principal Eddie Echols resigned in September after a routine audit revealed that he misused an unauthorized Costco American Express card under the school's name. The report said nearly $25,000 were racked up between 2008 and 2011.
Payments were made without documentation that would firmly establish whether the purchases were for appropriate school district use or for personal use, the report said. Echols repaid some of the money, but he still owes more than $18,000 to the school.
Echols told school officials he was "never given any direction as to what the card could be used for."
The issue came to light after a routine audit questioned why Echols bought a dinner for his family and paid for his wife to attend a conference with him using the card.
Fulton County School District spokeswoman Samantha Evans told Channel 2's Mike Petchenik there was no evidence Echols stole any money or that he broke the law but then the county district attorney picked up the case.
Last month, Echols was arrested on charges of theft, identity theft and credit card fraud. He has since bonded out of jail.

text: BEAVERTON, Ore., Oct. 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- This holiday season, Oregon Food Bank and Natural Grocers (NYSE: NGVC) are teaming up to provide hunger relief and emergency food for Portland-area families in need during the holidays. For every turkey purchased by customers of the Beaverton Natural Grocers store, the company will donate a 12-pound bird to Oregon Food Bank to add cheer in holiday food boxes. (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121115/LA13448LOGO) "Natural Grocers will be donating high quality naturally-raised turkeys to Oregon families in need," says Kemper Isely, Co-President of Natural Grocers. "The holidays are a special time of year for families, but can be especially difficult for families with limited resources. This buy one/give one free offer is a simple and effective way for our customers to help out another family in a healthy way." Oregon Food Bank will distribute the donated birds during the 2013 holiday season. In cases where a whole bird is not needed, or a vegetarian option is required, Natural Grocers has offered to donate $30 cash instead. The buy one/give one free turkey offer is part of Natural Grocers' ongoing commitment to providing emergency food relief across the nation. The company donates five cents to Oregon Food Bank each time local customers check out using their own reusable bags, and runs a donation campaign for two months each year with a healthy $50,000 dollar-for-dollar match. In addition, all excess and distressed food items are donated to local food banks. The need for emergency food remains at record high levels across the U.S. – and particularly in Oregon. In an average month, an estimated 270,000 people in Oregon and Clark County, Wash., eat meals from an emergency food box. "We are happy to have a new local grocery partner to help to support our efforts," said Susannah Morgan, Oregon Food Bank's CEO. "Natural Grocers has a long history of providing both food and cash donations to food banks across our country. It's a good example of how a grocer can involve communities across the country to help neighbors in need. And it's a good reminder that ordinary people can make an extraordinary difference by becoming involved with their communities to raise awareness and take action." Krysti Weddle, manager of the Natural Grocers store in Beaverton, reminds customers that turkeys need to be pre-ordered now, well in advance of Thanksgiving. "These are not hard-frozen birds from factory farms. They are naturally raised without antibiotics or growth promoters, and they are delivered just-in-time. Customers who want to take advantage of the buy one/give free one turkey offer need to reserve a turkey now at the store or on our web site. We'll take care of the rest." The turkey pre-ordering page can be found at http://www.naturalgrocers.com/store-locations/beaverton-oregon/OR/turkeys. Natural Grocers offers only natural and organic products on its shelves. Shoppers will find only USDA-certified organic produce and meats from animals raised naturally without the use of antibiotics or hormones. The affordable grocery chain also offers an extensive natural dietary supplement and body care department, and a large selection of gluten-free and other products for special diets.

This episode is from the WNYC archives. It may contain language which is no longer politically or socially appropriate.
Schuster, the President of Hunter College, addresses the topic "Immigrants All, Americans All."
Who is an American? The first settlers ever to come to these shores. Those settlers were immigrants. They wanted to make a living, engage in some activity to keep their families safe from poverty, desired liberty of conscience, education. Believed democracy was linked to religion. Each of us belongs to some group which left Europe. America is therefore something we have all built together. Italians, Irish, Negroes, Dutch, Belgians. Stronger by reason of our resources than any other nations because of the hard work and foresight of immigrants. Chinese have been handicapped by a number of restrictions. Never the less, they have made a large contribution to our economic welfare, and today their sons and daughters are attending colleges and universities. Germans. Jews. New refugees are just like our ancestors. They are eager to learn American customs. Common prejudice, though we have made progress and are committed to respect for one another. Those who are prejudiced represent not your country, but its ruthless foes. Your country is more than a machine.

Both schools have rosters loaded to the brim with BCS, FBS and FCS level talent. Each school has at least ten players who have received football scholarship offers. Godby comes into the game with a 5-1 record and is averaging 45.5 points per game behind senior quarterback J.T. Bradwell's direction. The quarterback has multiple FBS offers. Defensively Godby is led by outside linebacker and Florida State commit Jacob Pugh. Godby is giving up just 12.5 points per game.
While Trinity Christian is not as explosive on offense it is still averaging 35.1 points per game. On defense Trinity is led by junior super-recruits outside linebacker Jeffrey Holland who has multiple BCS offers and Kevin Toliver who is committed to LSU is holding opposing offenses to 5.3 points per game. This game even features a specialist, Godby long-snapper Stephen Gabbard, with BCS offers and who is committed to Florida State. Let's take a closer look at some of the prospects that will be on the field Friday Night in Tallahassee.
A Glimpse at some of Godby's Prospects:
The most heralded player for Godby is outside linebacker Jacob Pugh, 6-foot-4 and 231-pounds, who committed to Florida State prior to the start of this season. The senior chose the Seminoles over Alabama and Florida. Gifted athletically and with great size and speed, Pugh is having a productive and disruptive season. For the season has 38 total stops including 26 solo tackles. He also has 6 tackles behind the line of scrimmage including four sacks.
Senior cornerback De'Eric Culver, 5-foot-11 and 183-pounds, is committed to Louisville and has been very active this season. Culver, who has 18 scholarship offers, has 24 tackles this season and two interceptions.
Senior running back Kenny Young, 5-9 and 175-pounds, has offers from Florida Atlantic, Florida International, Georgia State and South Alabama among his more than a half dozen. Young has rushed for 406 yards and six touchdowns on 44 carries. The dynamic playmaker has also caught seven balls for 169 yards.
Senior wide receiver/defensive back Javon O'Neal, 6-foot-1 and 187-pounds, as at least nine offers including Indiana, Memphis, Middle Tennessee and San Diego State. O'Neal has 121 yards receiving on the season and on defense has totaled four tackles.
Senior outside linebacker/running back Kris Harris, 5-foot-11 and 220-pounds, has over 20 offers included among them South Florida, Michigan State, Southern Miss and Texas Tech. The physical defender has 29 tackles on the season, one sack and one pass-defensed.
Junior offensive lineman Brendan Loftus, 6-foot-6 and 285-pounds, has missed some of the season due to injury but had offers from TCU and East Carolina prior to the start of the season.
Senior signal caller J.T. Bradwell, 6-foot-2 and 190-pounds, has a 20-2 record over the last 22 games and has thrown for 1,049 yards so far this season including 13 touchdowns against three interceptions. Bradwell , who has sevens offers including Liberty, FAU, Troy and Georgia State, has also run for 388 yards in 2013.
Junior wide receiver/running back/defensive back Jaylin Hayward, 5-foot-10 and 180-pounds, has rushed for 186 yards on 20 carries as well as caught five passes for 29 yards. He has also made six tackles on defense. Hayward has offers from Miami, Tennessee, and Kentucky to name a few.
A Closer Look at Some of Trinity's Prospects:
Senior wide receiver Isaiah Ford, 6-foot-2 and 170-pounds, is already committed to Louisville to play both football and basketball. The talented playmaker has 18 receptions this season for 332 yards including seven touchdown grabs.
Senior offensive tackle Kavaris Harkless, 6-foot-5 and 285-pounds, is an athletic but raw prospect who has a lot of potential. Harkless, like Ford, has been committed to Louisville since before the start of this season.
Junior cornerback/quarterback/running back Kevin Toliver is one of the most gifted athletes in the 2015 recruiting class. Toliver has been committed to LSU since the end of his sophomore year. So far this season Toliver has continued to be impressive, throwing for 273 yards and four touchdowns while running for 221 yards and three more scores. On defense Toliver has 13 tackles including 11 solo stops.
Junior outside linebacker Jeffrey Holland, 6-foot-2 and 230-pounds, is one of the most sought after linebackers in the nation in the class of 2015. The disruptive defender's offer list is impressive to say the least. The easiest way to put it, if they play football at the college level, they have offered. Notre Dame, USC, Ohio State, Alabama, Georgia, Clemson as well as the schools in Florida have offered the hard-hitting Holland. The human wrecking ball has made 24 tackles including eight sacks and 20 solo stops. Holland has also caused five fumbles and recovered two more. At running back the junior has picked up 56 yards on 11 carries.
Junior offensive guard/defensive tackle Kendrick Norton, 6-foot-3 and 285-pounds, is a powerful but athletic lineman that plays with a mean streak. Norton has over 20 offers including both Florida and FSU as well as North Carolina, South Carolina, Penn State and Vanderbilt.
Junior safety Ben Edwards,6-foot-0 and 195-pounds, is a hard hitting safety who has over a dozen offers including Boston College, Maryland, Stanford, Missouri and North Carolina. This season Edwards has 16 total tackles including two tackles-for-a-loss and an interception.
Sophomore tailback Jalin Buie, 5-foot-9 and 185-pounds, is a game-changer with the ball in his hands. Buie has started on the varsity since he was in eighth grade. This season the dynamic back has rushed for 694 yards on 81 carries including three touchdowns. His list of eleven offers includes Auburn, Penn State, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee.

|There is a toll for the road from Stöckalp, and it's 12 Franken. IMO, if you're going to Swizzyland for single pitch climbing, you're nuts!
By Dan Flynn
From: MA
Jul 17, 2011
Toll is 7 chf to drive up and park at Melchsee-Frutt, but we couldn't find out how to pay it... camping is possible at several sites on the drive up.
Sure, don't come to Switzerland for the single-pitch climbing, but it sure is fun if you're already here!
Note the grades on the route name placards are UIAA/German, which takes some mental gymnastics...

|Toll (in 2011, gets adjusted every year or two) is CHF 12, but this is only collected during the tourist season - if nobody is standing at the base or the top to collect, you've got nothing to worry about.
By FourT6and2 Haftel

Now in 2016, there are automated toll gates regulating the flow of traffic up (but not down). On the way down, there's a digital sign/stop light telling you when you can go down. I think you have to insert your toll ticket into some sort of pay machine at the top. because when we got done and ready to leave, we couldn't get the gate open again at the bottom. We didn't know you had to pay/get the ticket validated. But it's October and the ski resort was basically empty/closed.
The crag itself is huge and has about 150 climbs—all marked with metal placards. But based on the routes available here on MP, we didn't realize just how big this place is.
To get to the crag, park your car and then walk along the north side of the lake on the paved road. Go along the lake until you pass the giant, standalone elevator. Just past this point, you'll see some large signs with climbing info on it and the path that leads up to the base of the crag on the left. Don't do what we did and hike up toward the top of Bonistock. We asked someone where Bonistock was and they sent us on a wild goose chase lol. Wasted about 45 minutes before we realized our error. The approach is literally 5-10 minutes from the parking area. Just head toward the lake.
The crag is broken down into 7 zones. Each zone has 10-15 routes.
It's such a beautiful place to climb. Definitely worth the trip if you're in the area. And worth it as a destination in and of itself if you want to also do some 600-foot multi-pitch nearby as well (Chelesen).
Here's a link to a breakdown of the entire crag: melchsee-frutt.com/files/swiss...

Compared to melting combat boots and a shortage of kit, it may not seem the biggest problem facing troops in Iraq.
But the soldiers who helped to oust Saddam Hussein have come up against another enemy: melting chocolate.
The desert heat is simply too much for the supplies sent out by their loved ones.
Now help may be on the way - in the form of unmeltable chocolate, created by schoolgirls in South Wales.
They say it tastes as good as the real thing, and hope samples will soon be heading to the Gulf.
As one of the pupils, 15-year-old Louise Treen, said: 'Chocolate makes people feel good.
'We just want to make them happy while they are away from the people they love.'
The girls' vital ingredient is glycerine, which keeps the chocolate solid in temperatures of up to 52c (126f).
Bloc- o-Choc, as they call it, melts in the mouth but not in the desert - because although glycerine has a high melting point it is soluble and is broken down by saliva.
Normal chocolate melts at body temperature, 37c, so it melts in the hand.
The girls, aged 14 and 15, found the right glycerine content to be 5 per cent.
'We had to keep trying and trying to get the quantities just right,' said Louise.
'We melted down bars of normal chocolate and then added the glycerine.'
She added: 'We want to see people at Cadbury's to see if they will help us make it into bars for the Army in Iraq.'
Louise and classmates Sarah Moore, Bethan England, Sarah Morris and Samantha Sear worked on the project for more than a year at Afon Taf High School in Ynysowen, Merthyr Tydfil.
Their creation has won them the £1,000 first prize in a contest run by the British Association for the Advancement of Science. 'The girls were going to do a project investigating chocolate in the diet,' said science teacher Carolyn Scott.
'But that changed after they heard about the soldiers in Iraq.'
Glycerine may be familiar to the troops for a different reason - it is used in making explosives.
The colourless, sweet, sticky liquid is a by-product of manufacturing soap. It is also used as a food additive and in cosmetics, Cellophane and perfume.
As a cough syrup, it is available over the counter in chemists.
The girls' product could not be sold as chocolate in shops because EU rules require a higher percentage of cocoa butter.
Even so, Bloc-o-choc is already being welcomed by the Ministry of Defence. A spokesman said: 'The troops love their chocolate and it would be a real treat to get some that isn't melted.'

Strathmore University is an undertaking of corporate apostolate of Opus Dei. It was founded at the inspiration of St. Josemaria Escriva and focuses on university education.
Opus Dei is a personal prelature of the Catholic Church erected by Pope St. John Paul II on 28th November 1982. Through its activities, it seeks to spread the message that work, study, sports, family life, and other ordinary activities are occasions for spiritual union with Jesus Christ.
Among the initiatives promoted by Opus Dei are those of corporate apostolate such as Strathmore University where some faithful of Opus Dei, together with the ordinary citizens undertake secular, lay activities, in accordance with the law of the land, based on professional work, and always imbued with a Christian spirit. Other initiatives include, but are not limited to, training centres for farm workers, medical dispensaries and hospitals and schools that cater for the under-privileged in society. These undertakings have the official moral guarantee of the Prelature in all matters to do with their Christian orientation.

The Discussion Board post in the online classroom is the equivalent to a conversation in the residential classroom. Your posts provide the instructor and classmates with an impression of you and your knowledge about the topics in the class. Here are a few tips to help you improve your posts.
- Prepare – Read the discussion board question and make sure you understand what is being asked of you. Are you being asked to share your opinion? Or, should you be providing information from outside resources? It is important to take the time to read the textbook, additional links, or information provided within that unit.
- Purpose – Write your post with a purpose. Well written discussion board posts can include an introductory sentence that provides the reader with an overview of your thoughts, opinion, or answer to the initial question. Continuing on to include the supporting information such as information from the textbook or a website and conclude your post with a strong sentence that summarizes your ideas. It is important to demonstrate the knowledge that you have about the topic.
- How does this relate? – Connecting your discussion board to the real world brings the material to "life" and helps other students to see how the information is utilized. For example, if your discussion board question relates to developing a marketing plan and you work in the marketing field, what could you share? What are the latest trends in the field?
- Is this a Writing class? – While you may be taking an IT or Business class, proper grammar, punctuation, and formatting on your discussion boards posts is important. Writing is our primary form of communication in online courses and your fellow students and instructors will appreciate your attention to these details.
- Connect with your classmates – All students bring a wealth of knowledge about a variety of topics to an online classroom. If you have knowledge about a topic or concept, be sure to share this information with your fellow classmates. The relationships built in an online classroom can be as valuable as those created in a traditional classroom.
The Discussion Board is a valuable tool in online learning and all students are encouraged to continuously work to improve their skills in writing and communicating within each post.

Hi Evryone. Im new to the forum, Ive joined because ive had problems with my 2010 318d.
Ive only had the car for 5 weeks and started to experience severe juddering pulling off in first gear. I had the car into my local dealer in Liverpool who wanted £340 to drop the gearbox and investigate the fault. I obviously refused and insisted it come under warranty.
In the end after kicking off to BMW financial services and complaints department they got the dealer who I bought the car from to pay the investigation charge. I even had to threaten them with trading standards "sale of goods act 1973".
The car is getting a new clutch and flywheel fitted today after the results where sent to BMW uk and they agreed to do it under warranty.
Im still fuming that after owning my first BMW that the clutch would pack up after 5 weeks with 12k on the clock and I had to argue with these people to get it sorted. What a dissapointing experience!
Anyone else got similar problems?

Chek ventures out alone.
It was often difficult to have a singular thought in a brain the size of a grain of sand, but Chek was one of those ants who often walked against the crowd, and ventured off alone.
He climbed up to the top of his favorite blade of grass and sat. The humans seemed so big! What was their weakness? The sun beat down on him, warming his tough exoskeleton.
the sun keot getting hotter and hotter. That was odd, the sun never felt this hot! He looked around. A large bright light was shining on him and it wasn't the sun! He began to scurry, but the light followed him. He climbed under the shadow of another grass blade.
I giant hand shoved aside a huge swatch of grass and a giant head peered down, eyes searching for him. Chek bolted into the nearest clump of dandelion.
Breathing harder with the exertion, he listened to the large heavy footsteps as they ran off. Chek solidified his resolve. He would figure out what made humans tick! He would hit them where it counts! He would make sure humans did not bother ants ever again!
He knew where there was a human hill, a large construction that they lived in. It was a long journey, but he had to do it. For the good of the colony!

Better Now
Abbie finally got fed up with mine and Max's random mood changes. She said that, yes, arguments hardly ever did happen, but they were treated like the end of the world when it did. And not only did she have to put up with the argument, but she had to put up with the silent treatment we often gave each other afterwards and she felt like we were giving it to her.
So, there were going to be no more bigger-than-they-need-to-be arguments from now on.
"Especially not on Christmas" she said. "So kiss and make up"
Max gave her a smile, but only I noticed how fake it was. He gave me a quick peck on the lips, but I kept my hand linked with his. Abbie frowned. I could tell she didn't like this awkwardness between Max and I, but then, I didn't like it either.
I wanted to ask Max if I'd upset him, but I also didn't want to know the answer. So I just gave Abbie my fake smile and agreed with her.
But at least everything was a bit better now. Just a bit.
Max still seemed to be in a bad mood that evening while were were all singing the one Christmas carol we all knew. Yes, my smile was real this time, but Max's wasn't. It was plainly obvious to me that he'd rather be... alone. I needed to talk to him.
"I need to talk to him" I finally told Abbie.
"OK" she smiled. "But please don't start an argument."
"I won't" I smiled back. I walked over to Max and he looked up at me. "Max, come with me"
He looked reluctant but he did get up and follow me to the trees. He leaned against one that was about a metre away from me.
"Max... have I... upset you?" I asked uncertainly.
"No" he said automatically, but he paused, and then repeated "No"
"OK" I smiled gently and went over to him, pushing my fingers through his. He shifted his feet but he didn't move me away. "You seem... uncomfortable with this" I lifted our hands.
"Listen, Max, I'm not trying to argue with you. I just want to know what's wrong" I told him.
He sighed. "I don't know, Sara. I really wish I did. I don't, though. I just, just- Argh, I don't know. I don't want to feel like this, and it's, it's annoying! And I hate it!" he exclaimed and then sank down into the snow, pressing his fists into his eyes.
"Are you all right?" I knelt down next to him.
"Sara" he said. "I want everything to go back. I want it to go back to before everyone disappeared. I want it to go back to normal."
"I know" I whispered. "I do, too"
"Sara?" Max looked up at me with red-rimmed eyes.
"I love you"

Jind, Feb 9 (UNI) At least 28,000 chicks were charred to death and property worth lakhs of rupees was reduced to ashes today when fire swept through a poultry farm in village Ikkas in this district.
The fire was apparently triggered by a short circuit and spread across so fast within minutes that not even a single chick could be saved. At least 100 sacks full of chicken feed and property worth at least nine lakh was also gutted in the fire, owner of the farm, Jitendra, told UNI.
The fire tenders had to battle the blaze for over two hours before it could be doused, he said.
