A Bright Line through Unreasonable Seizure in the Land of Terry v. Ohio: Northrup v. City of Toledo Police Department
J.D. Baldwin
Contributions Made by Professor Christopher Hastings
In Northrup v. City of Toledo Police Department, the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit created a bright line rule for unreasonable seizures of citizens who are openly carrying firearms. The Court determined that it is not reasonable to detain an individual simply because they are carrying a firearm when the surrounding circumstances give no indication of threat.

Tracey V. State: Reevaluating Fourth Amendment Protections In Light Of Technology
Sumayya Saleh
Contributions Made By Professor Jeff Swartz
In Tracey v. State of Florida, the Supreme Court of Florida reviewed whether government use of real time cell site location information to track a defendant, without first obtaining a warrant, violates the Fourth Amendment. The trial court held that no warrant was required to use the defendant's real time cell site location to track him on public streets where he had no reasonable expectation of privacy. But the Supreme Court of Florida held that the evidence must be suppressed because the defendant had a reasonable expectation of privacy in the location signals transmitted by his cell phone, even on public roads.

Mandatory Life Without Parole Too Tough for Juveniles (Unless They're Already in Prison) Michigan Denies Retroactivity of Miller
Jacqueline Langwith
In Miller v. Alabama, the Supreme Court of the United States held that mandating life without parole for juveniles violated the Eighth Amendment's ban on cruel and unusual punishment. Subsequently, the Michigan Legislature modified the state's sentencing scheme, requiring courts to consider the factors enumerated in Miller before a juvenile can be sentenced to life without parole. But the legislature left it up to the Michigan Supreme Court to determine if that new sentencing scheme should be applied retroactively. In People v. Carp, the Supreme Court held that the Miller factors should not be retroactively applied to the 362 juveniles currently serving life sentences.

Hoven V. Walgreen Co.: Private-Employer Restrictions on Self-Defense in the Workplace
Candis Najor
In Hoven v. Walgreen, the Sixth Circuit held that it was not against public policy for a private employer to dismiss an employee for defending himself by firing his gun during an armed robbery at his workplace. Hoven argued that Walgreen violated Michigan public policy by dismissing him for acting in self-defense, defending others, and lawfully carrying a concealed weapon. But the court reasoned that the termination did not fall within any of the Michigan Supreme Court's previous public-policy-violation definitions because Walgreen is a private employer and Hoven was an at-will employee. This decision suggests that the Michigan Supreme Court must carve out a new public-policy exception if it wants to protect at-will employees' constitutional and statutory rights.

"Intellectual Disability Is A Condition, Not A Number": Florida's Threshold Requirement For Intellectual Disability In Death Penalty Cases Ruled Unconstitutional
Sumayya Saleh
In Atkins v. Virginia, decided in 2002, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that executing a person with an intellectual disability is cruel and unusual punishment that is prohibited by the Eighth Amendment. But the Court left it up to the states to define intellectual disability. In Hall v. Florida, the Court clarifies its ruling in Atkins, finding that Florida's method for establishing intellectual disability is unconstitutional because it defines intellectual disability based strictly by an IQ score. The Court held this method "creates an unacceptable risk that persons with intellectual disability will be executed."

Race-Based Preferences: Should The Majority Vote Decide?
Jacqulene Brandt
In the last several years, the Supreme Court of the United States has weighed in on the use of racial preferences in University admissions processes many times. The Court has found some race-based admissions processes constitutional, but others not. In Schuette v. Coalition to Defend Affirmative Action (CDAA) the Court held in a plurality opinion that Michigan's voter-approved ban on race-based preferences is constitutional.

Use at Your Own Risk: Michigan Medical Marihuana Act Preempts Municipal Law But Federal Law Still Criminalizes Use Under Ter Beek v. City of Wyoming
Zackery T. Hugg
On February 6, 2014, the Michigan Supreme Court ruled on two preemption issues regarding the Michigan Medical Marihuana Act (MMMA). The Court ruled that the federal Controlled Substances Act does not preempt the MMMA. But, the MMMA does preempt a municipal-zoning ordinance.

Miller v. Mylan Inc.: No Immunity for Manufacturers of Combination Products?
Chelsey Morgenstern
Michigan's drug-immunity statute has significantly reduced pharmaceutical litigation in Michigan. But, the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit's recent decision in Miller v. Mylan Inc. may indicate a change in this trend. In a two-to-one decision, the court held that Michigan's drug-immunity statute does not apply to pharmaceutical combination products.

Medtronic, Inc. v. Boston Scientific Corp.: Declaratory Judgment's Burden on Licensee or Patentee?
Zackery T. Hugg
The Supreme Court has ruled that a licensee seeking a declaratory judgment that its products are noninfringing is not required to terminate or breach its license with the patentee. In Medtronic, Inc. v. Boston Scientific Corp., the Court will determine who has the burden of proof in such cases, the plaintiff licensee or the defendant patentee.

Maryland v. King: No Privacy Expectation in DNA?
H. Gavin LaCambra and Ashley Wilson
The Fourth Amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures. Reasonableness is measured by weighing a person's privacy interest against the government's purported interest in conducting the search. Recently, the Court used this balancing test to determine the constitutionality of Maryland's DNA Collection Act. The Court held that when police officers make an arrest for certain violent crimes, taking a DNA buccal swab, more commonly known as a cheek swab, is reasonable under the Fourth Amendment.

Race-Conscious Admissions Policies in Higher Education: Fisher V. University of Texas at Austin
Chris Jennings
In Fisher v. University of Texas at Austin, the Supreme Court of the United States decided if the "University's use of race in the admissions process violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment." The Court essentially reaffirmed the principles established in the landmark decision of Grutter v. Bollinger.

Repeal of Michigan's Universal Helmet Law: The Cost of Freedom
Audrey Marshall
Michigan's new statute gives riders and passengers, who meet certain requirements, the choice to wear a helmet. The full impact of the law is not yet known. But data from other jurisdictions with similar laws and insurance codes indicates that the partial helmet law will be detrimental, likely causing an increase in the number of motorcycle fatalities and injuries. This will drive up the cost of automobile-insurance premiums and the cost of healthcare, for which taxpayers will be responsible. The partial helmet law will ultimately have a detrimental effect on the safety of motorcyclists, the economy, and all Michigan citizens.

Probate Estate Settlement Procedures an Attractive Alternative for Asset Transfer on Death
Dustin S. Foster
In Improving Michigan Estate Settlement, John H. Martin offered, what I think is, a logical set of recommendations to make probate an attractive alternative to the transfer of assets on death. Martin's careful evaluation of the common objections to the probate process is instructive, and he does a good job of outlining the implications of his premise that, if modified, the probate estate settlement process can be a viable alternative to transfer assets. His analysis of other states' affidavit collection devices and summary administration proceedings yield a series of recommendations that, if adopted, will improve the Michigan probate process by eliminating delay, reducing cost, and permitting privacy.
But Martin underscores the inefficiencies of using a trust. He points to the fact that the preparation of a funded revocable trust is neither simple nor inexpensive. Additionally, he emphasizes that the probate process is not always avoided with a trust because only a funded trust avoids probate, and many individuals die with an unfunded or partially funded trust. Can this perception regarding probate procedures be changed, absent a public campaign either attacking the use of trusts or highlighting the benefits of the probate process? If you support Martin's recommendations, the answer is yes.
Martin's article is structured around his indictment of the probate process. This Article will focus on the expense, valuation/monetary ceiling, privacy, and efficiency of the probate process. If adopted, his proposed recommendations are applicable to small estates and estates subject to traditional probate procedures. This is where I depart from Martin's recommendations. Using lessons learned from his review of other states' small estate procedures, it is my belief that modest changes should be made to only small estate probate procedures and not to traditional probate procedures.

American Jewish Leaders View Board-Staff Relations
By Steven M. Cohen, Gerald B. Bubis
Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs (JCPA), 1999
In this chapter of Board-Staff Relations for the 21st Century, the authors report on the results of a study that reflects on the views that American Jewish leaders have on board-staff relations. The authors begin by highlighting several models of board-staff governance in the non-profit sector. The study finds that while professionals and volunteer leaders view professionals as being competent to a great extent, large majorities of volunteers and professionals do not view volunteer leaders to be competent. The study also found that professionals and volunteer were in strong agreement about the need for effectiveness and efficiency. The authors conclude by asserting that the study's results should be read and applied within the framework of the challenges facing Jewish organizations so that boards and staffs can be better equipped to overcome these challenges.

Today many companies are trying to rewrite history and alter the truth. As Hitler, Lenin, Mao and others used propaganda for political goals corporations now control images for commercial purposes. We are on the verge of a new world in which objective facts can be altered in the name of public relations. There are companies larger than states. The media is the most powerful entity in the world, they have the power to make the guilty innocent and the innocent guilty and that is power because they control the minds of the masses. (Malcom X 1925-1965)
Our former distributor Mr Levy has understood this very well and is using a "public" forum "ATOC" and his website to spread malicious lies with the purpose to harm our business and reputation and enhance his own. The ATOC forum is controlled by Mr Levy with an iron grip and does not allow any topic to be discussed or opinion expressed that he does not approve of under the adage "If you repeat a lie long enough people will start believing it" (Mr Levy's own words).
On this website, which is our property since the beginning of Ace Trains, we shall respond to these allegations and lies by presenting facts so that the reader may form his own opinion.
It will be a work in progress to be updated continuously and finally tell everything what there is to tell.
The first installment see below, others will follow shortly.
For those readers interested in the history and some back ground please see "History"
Andries Grabowsky
ACE Trains ™
ACE Trains India Pvt. Ltd
ACE Trains (Thailand) Co., Ltd
Vintage Trains
Statement of Mr Levy :
From the Ace Trains website www.acetrainslondon.com 01-11-2015 :
He (i.e. Andries Grabowsky sic) is still trading in the UK using much of our former tooling and in breach of copyright using images of our former A4 production.
Our Reply :
Regarding tooling and the Brand Name see below.
Regarding the copyright all products made, designed and manufactured by us are our copyright, whether sold as Darstaed or Ace Trains. In no way has Mr. Levy been involved in the design or manufacturing process nor has he paid any of the expenses towards it. All our products are registered copyright in the EU. For the Ace A4 alone 193 designs and drawings were registered. Mr Levy will not be able to show a single drawing or design made by him or his company.
Whereas Mr Levy may have obtained from the authors the copyright on all the books he did not write himself, in train manufacturing it is different. We design, we manufacture, we own the copyright. To claim copyright on our designs is impostrous.
Detailed below are some excerpts from the relevant sections of Law and the agreements that deal with the joint ownership of the Trademark (TM) and the tooling.
Re Trade Mark :
The relevant section of The Trade Mark Act is Sec. 24 that says :
Sec. 24 (TMA) Assignment, of a registered trade mark
(1) A registered trade mark is transmissible by assignment, testamentary disposition or operation of law in the same way as other personal or moveable property.
[... ]
(3) An assignment of a registered trade mark, or an assent relating to a registered trade mark, is not effective unless it is in writing signed by or on behalf of the assignor or, as the case may be, a personal representative.
This means that we are the joint owners of the ACE Trains Trade Mark since 28th of March 2001 whether registered by the Trademark Registry or not.
Re Tooling :
"Jointly Owned Tooling – The general position under English law where two parties have agreed to jointly own tooling is indeed that both parties have an equal right to posses and use the tooling without accounting to the other."
Besides the attached agreements below Mr Levy states in his newsletter No 3, page 9 : "Physical assets such as tooling are owned by the ACE Electric Train Company and Vintage Trains Ltd." reconfirming the agreement that the tooling is jointly owned.
Any tooling is in our care, well maintained and unaltered.
We have offered Mr Levy to ship the tooling to him but he declined. Mr Levy is free to order from us any product made with the jointly owned tooling at nominal cost provided he pays for the components previously made with this tooling. However Mr Levy declined to pay his outstanding invoices.
Mr Levy has repeatedly stated in public and continues to tell his audience that we would have sequestered "HIS" tooling that we use "HIS "tooling without "HIS" prior permission thereby suggesting we are infringing on his rights. The truth is we do not need his permission to use anything that is jointly owned, be it the tooling or the Trademark.
Mr Levy has even gone so far to write to all our distributors that he would consider any product made using "HIS" tooling as stolen property. Needless to say Mr Levy's bullying fails to impress anyone.
Malicious slander is a form of unfair competition that is unethical and contemptuous. Making unlawful threats is a crime.
As the law speaks for itself we do not find it necessary to discuss Mr Levy's allegations and claims regarding jointly owned tooling any further.
The Court Case :
To be continued …

Looks Like Caddy has M3 in its site: ATS-V Spy Shot!
This site just posted some killer spy shots of the ATS-V. The story says they were early prototypes (complete with Phillips screws holding in various body panels) shot in a random Southern California grocery store parking lot. I haven't seen any other spy shots of this car yet.
Check out the grille that uses the V Series emblem for its design inspiration. Wild. :yikes:
Wonder if the powertrain and handling will live up to expectations...
Already not liking the grille.
Looks like they updated the text to CTS-V.

ABSTRACT: A Physical Activation Program was designed and implemented with a particular emphasis in recovering of motor independence, and in an indirect manner; the increase of activities was carried out in a social context in such a way that it allowed isolated elderly to develop their ability to perform daily activities diminishing the burden on their caregivers. 30 people were randomly selected: 15 subjects in the experimental group and 15 in the control group; 7 women and 8 men each group. Subjects aged between 60 - 84 years with a mean age of 78 years and a standard deviation of 6.5 were applied in a three-month Physical Activation Program with a 45-min daily sessions. Results obtained showed that physical activity in elderly, systematically improved their amplitude and joint mobility which impact directly and indirectly their quality of life, reducing their risk of falling.

- - Beneteau vs. Catalina - seeking advice / opinions (http://www.sailnet.com/forums/boat-review-purchase-forum/98014-beneteau-vs-catalina-seeking-advice-opinions.html)
Beneteau vs. Catalina - seeking advice / opinions
My husband and I saw three very well-taken care of boats this weekend (looking for our first boat): A '99 Beneteau 352, a '92 Catalina 36', and an '87 Catalina 36'. The Beneteau is considerably more expensive (obviously!). Our plan is weekend sailing and short summer cruising on the Great Lakes (primarily Lake Michigan) for five years or so, and then on to longer adventures. We would appreciate seasoned insight into making this decision.
Re: Beneteau vs. Catalina - seeking advice / opinions
I think anyone of these would be a fine sailboat for Coastal cruising. What do you mean by..
Re: Beneteau vs. Catalina - seeking advice / opinions
The important consideration...which one do you like best? Answer that and then buy it. I'm sure the Beneteau is the nicest due to its age but is it worth the extra $$$? Only you can answer that.
Agree with the other poster...if your long range plans include blue water sailing, either look at other boats or enjoy this one now and replace when you want to hit the high seas.
Re: Beneteau vs. Catalina - seeking advice / opinions
ANY of these boats will work for the next 5 yrs. You might even get 2-10' ites in themean time! so do not rule that out. If you have not sailed a lot, nor owned a boat, the first boat will be a learning experience in more ways than one.
A newer boat may be a better option of total rookies, as things hopefully willnot have to be replaced or fixed, so you can spend more time sailing and learning.
Also get yourself on other boats asyou can, to see if in the long run, you have the boat for you. Again, if positive the boats mentioned are boats for the next 10 or so yrs, newer would be better than older! generally speaking mind you! If it were me, I would also look at if you can find one, a Jeanneau SO37 or a 36.2. Both of these have gone transatlantic many times over. I am sure the bene or cat have to frankly! I personally like the look and feel of the jeanneau better. then one probably knows about opinions....kinda like aholes, we haveone, they all steenk! so get the best boat that you like all around and say the heck with the rest of us!
Re: Beneteau vs. Catalina - seeking advice / opinions
A Catalina 34 or 36 were at the top of our shopping list when we moved up to a bigger boat a couple years ago. The Beneteau 361 (due to a charter experience) was high on the want list but way outside the budget.
We couldn't find any of the Catalina's this side of Lake Ontario and somebody suggested I look at either the Beneteau 351 or 352. We located a 352 in Sturgeon Bay that was in great shape and it is now ours. If you are looking at the one available in Whitehall, MI . . . it is a carbon copy of ours.
We use our Beneteau 352 exactly as you plan to use your future boat; weekend sailing with a couple multi-week cruises each season. We will be returning to the Ludington-Charlevoix/Petoskey coast again this season.
The boat is very stable and forgiving. We have been out a few times in 30+ knot winds (including the 2011 Queens Cup night crossing to Muskegon) and she sails/motors quite nicely.
The boat has been pretty much maintenance free (except for routine stuff) and the only weekness when cruising is the small size of the holding tank (I'll likely upgrade to a larger tank this season). One other item to note is the location of the winches (they are on the cabin top). This doesn't present a challenge when sailing with two or three people aboard. With a working autopilot, I have no difficulting sailing the boat by myself.
There is a bit of commercial freighter traffic on the Great Lakes, especially in the NE portion of Lake Michigan. Lake Michigan is also prone to fog, both day and night. Whatever boat you get . . . plan on having a radar reflector aboard and plan on having either radar or a VHF radio that has an AIS receiver capability. (as an example Welcome to StandardHorizon.com )
Good luck in your search.
Re: Beneteau vs. Catalina - seeking advice / opinions
IMHO, you should buy a boat for the sailing you plan on doing TODAY and not 5 years from now. A lot can change in 5 years. Anyway, for your current plans, any of those boats would be fine. If you really think that you'll do long distance sailing a few years, then my advice would be to buy a cheaper boat now. The cheaper boat will have had had more depreciation and will be easier to sell in the future.
Good luck,
Re: Beneteau vs. Catalina - seeking advice / opinions
Re: Beneteau vs. Catalina - seeking advice / opinions
Watch out for hull moisture readings on the older Beneteaus around the toilets, and especially the rudder.
Re: Beneteau vs. Catalina - seeking advice / opinions
Re: Beneteau vs. Catalina - seeking advice / opinions
I can't speak to the Beneteau, but I've had either a 1986 or current 1991 Cat 36 for the past 26 years. You will probably not lose any money over the next 5 years with either. You will enjoy the walk-through transom on the '92 Cat. I can't recall if the '92 has the new MK II interior or not, if it does then you need to pick which one you prefer. I purposely bought a '91 as it seemed to be the last year with that great nav station. You can easily singlehand the Cat 36 and it handles like a long car around the dock, very predictable. Good Luck.

This is easy enough with single vouchers or three vouchers, however two vouchers may have to fly separately on back to back flights. We will do our best to keep couples together on the same flight, but if you want to guarantee that two people will fly together, then we suggest you purchase three vouchers to get a private flight at a really great price.

Aug 9, 2013 - By Alejandra Silva, Staff WriterWith a broad view of the Riverton Valley in the background, ceremonial shovels dug into the dirt Friday morning at the site of what will be the Wind River Job Corps Center.
A groundbreaking ceremony at the Airport Road site united an extensive, collaborative team of government officials, tribal leaders, city and state officials, energy company representatives, and department of labor and education representatives who were recognized for their roles in moving the project forward.
Shovels and hard hats lined up at the trail of mounted dirt for Riverton's Mayor Ron Warpness, U.S. Sen. Mike Enzi (R-Wyo.), Fremont County Board of Cooperative Educational Services director Sandy Barton, Northern Arapaho Business Council member Willard Gould, contractors, state legislators, city staff and education officials.
"The biggest thing is that this community, this area and Wyoming have the
foresight and the drive and the ingenuity to put together this project, and it's come to fruition today and all of you deserve the credit for it," Enzi said, adding that the participation of the Eastern Shoshone and Northern Arapaho tribes was a major contribution to the project.
Warpness mentioned that he came across many people who told him the center would never come to Riverton, but he was glad he would be proving them wrong.
"(There's) a strong positive confirmation and (we) say 'yes it will. We were right. They were wrong,'" Warpness said.
As he held back tears in his speech and described the center as a "great, long, overdue celebration" he said that the center not only would bring positive financial impact to the community but a greater impact on young lives in Wyoming.
The center will provide academic assistance and career and technical training to as many as 300 students at once, ages 16-24. Barton reiterated to attendees of the ceremony that initial attempts for the construction of the center began as early as 2004, with a more firm push by Sen. Enzi in 2007. She said constant phone calls, networking, and cooperation among key people advanced the project to the expected completion date of 2015.
The low bid for the estimated $41.3 million project was received and granted to Rafter H Construction of Rexburg, Idaho.

Amber Rose found herself defending her body weight this week when a paparazzi photo of her jogging in leopard leggings hit the Web. Bloggers joked that the model had a weight problem, often showing side-by-side comparisons of pictures she appeared in years ago, visibly smaller.
"I'm 5'9", 148 [pounds]," Amber shot back on her Twitter page. "How am I fat? Man, what have I done so wrong? I just don't get it."
While her thighs and butt may appear bigger in recent pictures, to call her fat is a bit extreme. According to the Body Mass Index, her stats are normal for her height. Never mind the fact that she's jogging to keep herself healthy—wasn't it her hips that helped her get a start as a music video girl and a model in the first place? Where do we draw the line on celebrating curves and calling someone out for their size?

The Bosch fuel injection system requires 40 psi or more. Loss of pressure will create hard starting problems. Since the M54 has the integrated pressure regulator on the fuel filter, I would look there first as the cause (it is also easier and cheaper to replace than a fuel pump and is considered normal maintenance).
As a test, at your next cold start, try letting the fuel pump pressurize the fuel injection system first. Turn the key until you can hear the fuel pump start up. Leave it in this condition for a minute or so. Then attempt to start it. If it fires up, the check valve within the fuel filter is probably failing and causing residual fuel pressure to bleed off. Replacing the fuel filter
alleviate this issue.
Please report back on the resolution to your problem as this can be very helpful to others with similar issues.
Thanks for the helpful advice, I will definitely report back with the fix as soon as I identify and confirm the problem, thanks again!

Re: Professor evaluations/suggestions throughout the year?Christopher Taylor Jan 14, 2014 10:19 AM (in response to Jonathan Kuderer)
These are great questions. I know many of us would love to get more feedback from our students on what we can be doing better.
Why are they only after we take the class?
I think the main reason for this is so that the instructor does not have the opportunity (or even the appearance of the opportunity) to adjust a student's grade based on feedback that the student provides. As an instructor, we do not see the instructor evaluations until after grades have been submitted. While the evaluations are anonymous, it is sometimes possible to determine with some degree of certainty who wrote a particular comment.
How are we to make a suggestion to a professor anonymously while participating in the class?
If you want to make a suggestion to a professor anonymously while participating in a class, I would recommend printing the suggestion and placing it in the instructors mailbox (typically located in the main office for the instructor's department). If you are concerned that your cover may be blown if someone sees you delivering the suggestion, you can always mail it from off campus.
Complaints can be a bit harder. While some instructors may be open to hearing and responding to a complaint, it can often be difficult for the instructor to fully understand the complaint just based on the few words that are included in the note. Often it may require some dialog for the instructor to understand the core issue and perhaps provide some reasons for why (s)he does something a certain way.
Whenever you have a complaint, I believe it is important to first address this with the instructor so that the instructor has an opportunity to respond. If the instructor is not open to addressing the complaint, I would suggest discussing the issue with the instructor's department chair.
And now for a bonus question and answer...
How do I increase the chances that my feedback will be acted upon?
The vast majority of (perhaps all) faculty at MSOE want to be responsive to the needs/wants of our students. We want to know what we can be doing better. Keep the instructor's perspective in mind when making suggestions. Focus on things that the instructor can control. Good suggestions should be specific and provide enough detail for the instructor to readily understand.
Here are some comments that I received from students last quarter in SE1011:
"explain how you want us to comment our code" - [Helpful] This comment was specific and clear. I provided a link to a document that described how to do it and a few examples, but I did not take class time to explain how to do it. I should have spent class time explaining this so that I could more fully describe what should be included and why it is important. This is something I have done differently in the past but slipped up on last quarter. This feedback is valuable because I can make specific changes the next time I teach the course.
"I think that he needs to give us some more exercises in class, so the student can follow up in each issue in the programming class." [Somewhat Helpful] It is useful for me to know that at least some students could benefit from additional exercises. However, the comment is somewhat confusing to me. The first part makes it sound like I should be doing more in class exercises, but the second part makes it sound like I should be assigning more optional homework but announcing it in class. I think what the student is suggesting is that I introduce more exercises in class (going over what the exercise is about, but not solving it) and then allowing students to work on these exercises outside of class, but I'm not certain.
"I think having a morning SE class is a bad time due to everyone just waking up." [Not Helpful] Unfortunately, this isn't helpful for me since I do not have control over when the class is scheduled.
"Talk a little more about the nuance of things we talked about." [Not Helpful] I don't have any idea what this means.
The end of the quarter evaluations are seen by more than just the instructor for the course. The instructor's department chair sees the evaluations. Also, when an full-time faculty member is up for contract renewal, his/her evaluations are seen by a committee of select faculty who make a recommendation on whether or not the instructor's contract should be renewed. If you have complaints that have not be addressed by the instructor that you believe are reducing the quality of education you are receiving, you should take the time to write about these issues on the end-of-the-quarter evaluations. As with suggestions, the way your comments are expressed can have a significant impact on how useful they will be to those making decisions. In this case, you should consider your audience to be the department chair and faculty evaluation committee. Make sure that your comments are clear and provide enough detail. If you have a particular complaint, I would suggest including the following information:
- What does the instructor do/not do that is a problem?
- How does this reduce your ability to effectively learn?
- What steps did you take to resolve the issue?
- How did your instructor respond?
Some of us do survey students during the term to see what we can be doing differently. I find it helpful to do such surveys for a number of reasons. Here are a few reasons:
- I can improve my teaching techniques by incorporating feedback
- Students see the varied perspectives of their classmates (I share the results with the class. At times one student's feedback will be in conflict with another's, e.g., one student thinks I'm going to fast, another thinks I'm going to slowly).
- I can explain why I may choose not to adopt a suggestion.
Re: Professor evaluations/suggestions throughout the year?Deborah Jackman Jan 14, 2014 12:59 PM (in response to Jonathan Kuderer)
I more or less concur with what Dr. Taylor has said, but want to further stress the FORMAL MSOE complaint process. If after attempting to communicate (either directly or anonymously) with the instructor, your issues remain unresolved, please follow the FORMAL process, because that ensures that this gets kicked up to the Chief Academic Officer's level and it WILL get acted on. Please see:
for the formal process. This process is a requirement for both regional accreditation through HLC IHIgher Learning Commission) and for federal Title IV eligibility, so MSOE does take it seriously.
Deborah Jackman, PhD, PE, LEED AP
CAECM Chair, Professor, and LIaison Officer to the Higher Learning Commission
I'm starting to come to the conclusion along with many other students about the evaluations we take on professors. Why are they only after we take the class? While it is helpful for future students, it is leaving current students out. My question is, where can we go if we do have a suggestion for a professor or maybe have a complaint about one? I use suggestion and complaint as separate things but include them both because it entirely depends on the professor. How are we to make a suggestion to a professor anonymously while participating in the class? I would prefer anonymously because if they were to get offended, well they determine my grade and I'm not about to put that on the line.
Is there a way through blackboard or the HUB to make this happen?

Lil Wayne's 'Tha Carter IV' Album Cover Revealed
Instead of moping around until 'Tha Carter IV' is released upon the masses, you can have a little taste of the supposed cover art (via Pitchfork), featuring a young Weezy in kindergarten graduation attire and complimentary face tattoos. This is one bad boy we wouldn't want to mess with on the playground.
Lil Wayne has spent the last year equivocating about the release of his highly anticipated follow up to last year's 'I am Not a Human Being.' But as the BoomBox recently reported, the date has been pushed back again from May until June of this coming summer.
Wayne and friends Nicki Minaj, Travis Barker and Rick Ross are currently on the I Am Still Music tour across North America which will finish up in May.


text: I have been a TiVo owner for about a week now, and thoroughly enjoying it. Have one mini now and will eventually get a second one. Because of wiring, ie ethernet is easier to get to an upstairs TV, I have initially put the Roamio at that location and a mini at our main TV in the family room. Plan to either run ethernet to the family room or use an ethernet/moca bridge. What I want to know is what types of things am I missing by not using the Roamio directly as the main box? Being a new user, I don't really know what I might be missing, so am looking for reasons to accelerate the reconfig, or if there is no rush. I know the UI is different on the two boxes, as is the remote. I don't seem to be able to flip between the different tuners on the mini. But I'm not sure if I am running up against actual limitations, or my novice user skills. Thanks for any input

European Factors to Watch-Shares expected to be steady at open
(Updates futures prices, company news items)
LONDON Dec 30 (Reuters) - European stocks were seen steady at the open on Wednesday, although a pullback in oil prices could weigh on the shares of energy companies.
Futures on the Euro STOXX 50 and German DAX indexes both rose 0.2 percent. Futures on Britain's FTSE 100 were flat while futures on France's CAC slipped down by 0.2 percent.
Crude oil futures fell around half a dollar early on Wednesday as the market remained under pressure from slowing demand and high supplies, while forecasts that a cold snap in Europe and the United States would be short-lived also hurt prices.
The pan-European FTSEurofirst 300 index closed up 1.5 percent on Tuesday, helped partly by a rise in banking shares.
Barclays Plc will pay more than $13.75 million to settle U.S. regulatory charges that it let retail brokerage customers make unsuitable mutual fund transactions, including more than 6,100 fund switches, over a five-year period. Continuación...

Best of the Best 2010 Spotlight: Lady Saw
Since the mid-'80s, Lady Saw has represented for the females in the highly male-driven world of dancehall. And throughout her career, she's racked up a lot of firsts. She was the first female dancehall artist to headline major genre events outside of Jamaica, the first to win a Grammy, and the first to go triple platinum. Saw has accomplished much of this thanks to her outspoken talk. While her male peers have usually taken to macho posturing, Saw's own perspective is decidedly female, and often, frankly sexual. It's not all bawdy pillow talk, though -- her songs have duly railed against mistreatment of women, and even advocated for safe sex.
(After the jump, too, watch her calling out an unruly fan and verbally crushing him. Amazing.)
Best of the Best 2010. With Diddy, DJ Khaled, Gucci Mane, Capleton, Barrington Levy, and others. 1 p.m. Sunday, May 30. Bicentennial Park, 1075 Biscayne Blvd., Miami. Tickets currently cost $54 and up; children under 12 are free when accompanied by an adult. 305-438-9488; bestofthebestconcert.com

ADAM Batty won the Hazlemere Club Championship for the second year running last week - and received a tweet of recognition from the world's number one golfer.
On the first day, Batty, who plays off +1, was trailing leader Adam Birdseye by one shot, but then came good on the second day in blustery conditions to finish with an overall two under par total of 138.
The champion immediately tweeted former Hazlemere Junior Champion Luke Donald with his result and the south Bucks golfer - who is back at the top of world golf again and earned an MBE in the Queen's birthday honours - tweeted back his congratulations.
The ladies' champion was also the winner from last year. Emily Marler, who plays off seven.
Marler, who is looking to pursue a career as a golf pro, works at the club shop and has already achieved her Level One coaching qualification.
It was the first time the club had played the men and ladies club championships over the same weekend, and club captain Garry Hartley hailed the move.
He said: "The atmosphere made the weekend a resounding success with players, friends and family watching the final groups come in on our 18th signature hole.
"We were all so proud to hear the news that Luke had received his well deserved MBE and had made the effort to tweet his congratulations to Adam."

Custom 3 Series Sedan Skipass Enclosure Stealth System
I worked on this for about two days and came out with somthing that i think is the cleanest subwoofer install on this car. Its made for sedans with folding seats. Some slight modifications to your car are necessary which I will gladly help you with upon delivery.
The car does retain the ability to close the armrest and use as normal with this setups mounting depth. It also makes a cubby hole behind the rear passenger seat to hide cords, speaker terminal, and install a capacitor or spare battery to retain its stealth appearance.
I have one extra of these to sell at the moment and can build more. It is made specifically for the TC Sounds Epic 8. Ive done all the research and have it personally in my car. Its the best 8" out there for balance and performance in a sealed enclosure, period. The amp can be chosen by you. I went with a perfect match JL 500/1.
Setup comes with carpeted/ baffled speaker box with terminal, carpeted amp rack custom cut to wheel well, and black leather covered faceplate to clean it all up (black piece around sub, between seats)
Im looking for around $260 for this enclosure setup. Shipping will be around $40 to cont US.

Airbus today said it had changed its mind about using lithium batteries in its new A350 plane, after rival Boeing was forced to ground its Dreamliner jet over problems with the technology.
European planemaker Airbus said it will use conventional nickel-cadmium batteries for the A350, its wide-body long-range plane set to go head-to-head with Boeing's 787, to limit delays and costs on the plane. It's already thought to have cost Airbus some $15 billion to develop the A350.
Airbus spokesman Mary Anne Greczyn said: "Airbus considers this to be the most appropriate way forward in the interest of programme execution and A350 reliability."
The battery move comes amid concern in the aerospace industry that the lithium systems may not be technically "mature".
Boeing's Dreamliner has now been grounded for a month, as US aviation safety officials investigate problems with its lithium-ion batteries that caused one to catch fire and forced another plane to make an emergency landing.
The A30 is set to make its first flight in the middle of this year – and will then face a year of flight trials and the complex safety certification process. Re-engineering the power supply with a more traditional battery could cause serious delays, but sticking with lithium could have been more troublesome as no cause has yet been found for the batteries' faults.
The A350 is due to be delivered to customers – including Aer Lingus, Singapore Airlines and Cathay Pacific - in the second half of next year, already two years behind its original schedule.

Channel 4 film hires criminals
Channel 4 has been criticised for using former criminals in a film about the world of guns and drugs.
The fictional film Shooters, to be shown next Tuesday, includes mocked-up scenes of murder and an incident where one villain bites another man's ear off in a fight.
The gangster movie is being shown as part of the documentary series, Cutting Edge.
The programme has been condemned by victims' groups.
Norman Brennan, from the Victims of Crime Trust, said: "Do we really want to see criminals on the television re-enacting crimes they may or may not have committed themselves?"
He added: "Society is getting sick and tired of criminals benefiting from their past in any way, whether they are paid or not.
"I wonder if Channel 4's advertisers know what's going on?"
But a Channel 4 spokesman told BBC News Online that the use of former criminals did not glamorise violence.
"There are people in the film from a specific part of Liverpool and some do have a criminal record," said the spokesman.
None paid
"The film is not a glamorised portrayal of this world in the slightest," he added.
The movie was made by documentary maker Dan Reid, who had originally planned to make a factual film about guns and drug-running in Britain's inner cities.
But Reid decided instead to use the knowledge of criminals interviewed for the documentary to make the fictional version.
"Dan has sought to tell the story of the people involved in this world, through their eyes, but on his terms," said the spokesman.
Channel 4 gave its approval to use the convicted criminals from the outset and none have been paid for their part in the film.
"They bring their real life experience to the roles. It is experience an actor would not have," said the spokesman.

Today was a successful day in the studio. Even though I had limited time there today, I managed to finish the painting!
Some days I can paint with such clarity and focus. Strange because I wasn't feeling so good today. I sat at the easel sick with nausea, but worked through it and I am glad I did!
Here is the finished painting. I decided to title it "Italian Balcony" because when I think of Italy, I always think of the flowers brimming over their balconies before I think of anything else!!
When I first got to the studio, I worked on finishing the pots, the railing, and the rest of the flowers.
Then I moved on to the shutter on the right. After that, it was quick painting. I left the studio for a few hours and came back to it to finish up the walls and the molding under the balcony.
It was a happy painting day!! I love when that happens!!

Study: College Grads Less Happy At Work
Your high school guidance counselor may have been wrong. According to a new study, a college degree does not necessarily mean happiness and success in the real world. The survey by Gallup Education questioned more than 150,000 adults nationwide last year to gauge attitudes about their jobs. "We found, quite surprisingly, that people with college degrees are less engaged in the workplace than anybody else," says Brandon Busteed, executive director of Gallup Education. Indeed, the study found 55% of college graduates were not engaged in their jobs, compared to 48% of those with a high school diploma or less.
The findings blow a hole in the widely-held belief that getting a college degree is always the best option, no matter what. Busteed says the problem stems from the fact that many with a degree aren't doing what they want to do for a living. "College grads are much less likely to say they have a chance to do what they're best at every day at work," he explains. Another factor is that many college graduates feel they are overqualified for their position, due largely to the weak economy which has resulted in a shortage of jobs.
The study also found that higher earnings does not equal happiness or productivity. "College grads make more money, but it turns out they're less engaged in their job and, probably more damning, they aren't maximizing their own potential because they aren't doing what they're best at," says Busteed. He hopes the study will encourage a change in the approach of the education system, which has been pushing a college degree-or-bust mindset. "We need to make sure we encourage people to think more carefully about what's right for them, and not just what we all automatically assume is right for everybody," says Busteed.

RICHMOND, VA. - Junior Pat Light (Colts Neck, N.J./Christian Brothers Academy) struck out four batters in 8.0 innings of work and sophomore Jamie Rosenkranz (Oakhurst, N.J./Ocean Township) drove in two runs on three hits to pace the Monmouth University baseball team to a 6-4 victory over Virginia Commonwealth, Saturday afternoon at The Diamond. The Hawks snap a three-game losing streak and improve to 4-3 on the season while Rams fall to 5-5 on the year.
VCU opened up the scoring in the first inning, jumping ahead 1-0 but MU responded with two in the third. Craig Sweeney (Middletown, N.J./Middletown South) singled and moved to third on Jon Guida's (Martinsville, N.J./Bridgewater Raritan) base knock and later touched home on Josh Boyd's (Port Murray, N.J./West Morris Central) sacrifice fly. Rosenkranz chased in Guida on a single to give the Blue and White a 2-1 lead.
Sophomore Jake Gronsky (Danville, Pa./Danville Area) and junior Danny Avella (Matawan, N.J./Christian Brothers Academy) registered back-to-back doubles to open the ensuing frame and senior Ed Martin (Hazlet, N.J./Raritan [Brookdale CC]) singled home Avella to extend MU's lead to 4-1.
The Rams chipped away at the deficit in the sixth, cutting the Hawks' lead to 4-2 on Brent Mikionis' RBI single, but Monmouth claimed the run right back in the top of the seventh on Rosenkranz's single through the right side, scoring Guida, who doubled a batter earlier.
VCU continued the trend in the home half of the seventh, plating a run on a wild pitch after Bill Cullen tripled with one out in the inning but Guida's bases loaded walk, scoring Martin, who singled earlier in the eighth, gave MU a 6-3 advantage heading into the final inning.
The Rams used an advantage of a Monmouth throwing error to plate their final run but could not score anymore as sophomore Andrew McGee (Toms River, N.J./Toms River South) came in and shut down VCU, striking out two, to earn his first save of the season and seventh of his young career.
The Hawks scattered nine hits on the Rams' starter, Kyle Haynes, scoring five runs to tag him with the loss. Light improves to 2-1 on the season after his longest outing thus far.
Monmouth and VCU, which got rained out yesterday, will play two nine-inning games tomorrow at The Diamond. Game one is scheduled for noon with the night cap of the doubleheader to start shortly after the conclusion.

Steering Wheel Fatigue
I am not sure where this particular post would go so I am putting it here.
I just got my 2014 Limited and I noticed that after driving for an extended period of time ( 30-45 min +), my hand would start to get fatigued or even ache. I thought it was just me, but the other day the wife and I went out with some friends and I had had a few beers so we decided to have her drive. Within about 15 minutes, she started complaining that here hands were hurting from the steering wheel.
I have never had this problem before and I think I will get used to it eventually but was wondering if anyone else experienced something similar?
My old 2003 Jeep had a much thinner steering wheel and I am thinking that the thickness of the steering wheel might be the cause.
Have you tried adjusting the steering wheel and/or your seat position?
Re: Steering Wheel Fatigue
I was recently reading that newer cars have steering wheels designed for a 9 & 3 o'clock position due to injuries they've been seeing from the airbag. Years ago it was more of a 10 & 2 position that they designed for.....of course my hand is sitting on top of the steering wheel 90% of the time so who cares!
Re: Steering Wheel Fatigue
My Buick Enclave had a rather thin wheel, and when I got the Jeep it took a little getting used to the thicker wheel, but I've driven 2-3 hours nonstop, and no issues. I do notice I place my hands in a slightly different location on this wheel. I think I actually like the thicker wheel after getting used to the difference, and finding a comfortable hand location.
I guess you or your wife are used to holding anything thick...
Somebody had to say it ;)
Re: Steering Wheel Fatigue
The thicker steering wheel will actually give you less fatigue in the muscles/tendons in your arm/hand because you don't have to flex as much to hold it. That's why people use thicker pens and re-grip their golf clubs with thicker grips.
Also, muscles and tendons prefer not to "twist" when they have to contract so if you see that your wrist is twisting a little (palm down) to hold the wheel that may be an issue.
The best position (as mentioned above) for your hands on the wheel would be around the 4-5 and 7-8 o'clock positions. Less tension in the neck/shoulders/arms/hands as well as potentially avoiding airbag injuries if you hands were at the 10/2 position.
The other issue is that you might be white knuckling to hold on because the GC is so fast!
Re: Steering Wheel Fatigue
I haven't encountered any real fatigue, but even with the leather, I find this wheel, though bigger, "slicker" than my old car. I find myself holding it tight and consciously peel my hand off and move to another position. I half expect to see little indentations where my fingers were.
As for the fast comment, in traffic school once, the instructor made a comment that I think rings true. "If you're holding the wheel too tight, you're driving to fast.".
It's a personal gauge of comfort and circumstance. Whether it's 20 MPH in pea soup fog or 120 MPH. I think it's a good heuristic if you watch for it. For me, this greatly manifested once when I was doing race a car simulator. At the end, my hands were, unconsciously, claws. They actually hurt, and I was just sitting in a high tech video game, trying to not hit the wall in an indy car.
I'll also experience it on my motorcycle if the road is particularly nasty sometimes.
So, you may simply not be comfortable with the car yet, the wheel may be too slick, which contributes to it, so you hold it too tight. I'm not quite "one fingering" it like I could in my old truck, toe on the accelerator, finger on the wheel, flying down the highway.
In time, I'm sure this will go away as familiarity takes over.
Re: Steering Wheel Fatigue
I've made many 10+ hours trips in my GC Limited and never experienced sore or aching hands. Can't say the same about my butt.
